THIS UNCONDITIONAL AND CONTINUING LEASE GUARANTY is made effective as of
September 30, 2004 (the "Effective Date") by DANIEL R. BATY ("Guarantor"), in
favor of HEALTH CARE REIT, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the
State of Delaware, HCRI NEVADA PROPERTIES, INC., a corporation organized under
the laws of the State of Nevada, HCRI KANSAS PROPERTIES, LLC, a limited
liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, and
HCRI TEXAS PROPERTIES, LTD., a limited partnership organized under the laws of
the State of Texas (collectively "Landlord").
 
R E C I T A L S
 
A.    Landlord is granting to Emeritus Corporation, a corporation organized
under the laws of the State of Washington ("Tenant"), a lease of certain real
property ("Property") pursuant to a Master Lease Agreement between Landlord and
Tenant of even date ("Lease"). Tenant is entering into a Sublease with ESC IV,
L.P., a Washington limited partnership, dba in Texas as Texas ESC IV, L.P
("Subtenant"), for a portion of the Property.
 
B.    In order to enter into the Lease with Tenant, Landlord requires that this
Guaranty be provided by Guarantor. Guarantor is Chairman and Chief Operating
Officer of Tenant, and Guarantor has determined that Guarantor will benefit from
the Lease to Tenant and has agreed to provide this Guaranty to Landlord.
 
C.    As used herein, "Lease Documents" means the Lease and all other documents
and agreements made in connection with the Lease, as amended, modified, renewed
or extended from time to time. "Credit" means all rent, late charges, interest,
taxes, utility charges, insurance premiums and all other charges, expenses and
amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the Lease Documents.
"Security" includes all guaranties of any Credit, all interests in real or
personal property securing the payment of any Credit or any guaranties of any
Credit, and all other agreements, rights, or interests insuring or guaranteeing
payment of any Credit. "Lease Obligations" means all of the covenants,
obligations and liabilities of Tenant and Subtenant under the Lease Documents,
including the payment of the Credit when due.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
Landlord and Guarantor agree as follows:
 
1.    Guaranty. Guarantor unconditionally guarantees the prompt payment when due
of the Credit and the performance of the Lease Obligations and shall indemnify
Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from any costs and expenses in any way
arising out of Tenant’s failure to pay the Credit or perform the Lease
Obligations according to their terms.
 
2.    Warranties.
 
(a)    Capacity. Guarantor is legally competent to incur the obligations of this
Guaranty and to execute, deliver and perform this Guaranty.

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

 

 
(b)    Inducement to Landlord; Waivers. Guarantor [1] acknowledges that Landlord
would not have extended the Credit to Tenant and will not continue to extend
Credit to Tenant but for this Guaranty; [2] warrants that Guarantor has given
this Guaranty to induce Landlord to extend and to continue to extend Credit to
Tenant; [3] agrees that Landlord may rely on this Guaranty in extending future
Credit to Tenant without notice to Guarantor; [4] warrants that Guarantor has
received good and valuable consideration for this Guaranty; [5] waives
acceptance of this Guaranty; [6] warrants that Guarantor has not given this
Guaranty in reliance upon the existence of any Security; [7] acknowledges
receipt of notice of all Credit extended before this date; [8] waives notice of
any Credit extended after this date; [9] waives protest and any other notice of
failure to pay the Credit or to perform any agreement relating to any Credit or
Security; [10] acknowledges that Guarantor has read this Guaranty, the Lease,
and all other documents in connection with the Lease; and [11] acknowledges that
Guarantor understands and agrees to Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty.
 
(c)    No Reliance on Information from Landlord. Guarantor [1] warrants that
Guarantor has not relied on any information about the Tenant, the Security, or
any guarantor of the Credit provided directly or indirectly by Landlord;
[2] warrants that Guarantor is familiar with Tenant, Tenant’s affairs, and the
Security; [3] warrants that Guarantor has had ample opportunity to investigate
Tenant, Tenant’s affairs, the Security, and the effect that the Credit will
have; [4] warrants that Guarantor has been provided all information concerning
Tenant, Tenant’s affairs, and the Security that Guarantor has requested;
[5] warrants that Guarantor has had adequate opportunity to seek and evaluate
professional advice concerning Tenant, the Security, and this Guaranty from
advisors of Guarantor’s choosing, including financial and legal advice; and
[6] agrees that Guarantor shall not rely on any information provided by Landlord
about Tenant or the Security, including any other guarantor. Guarantor shall
continue to investigate and evaluate Tenant and the Security independently
throughout the term of this Guaranty, and Landlord has no obligation to provide
Guarantor any information about the Tenant or the Security.
 
(d)    No Insolvency. On the date of the Guarantor’s entering into this Guaranty
and after giving effect to all indebtedness of the Guarantor, [1] the Guarantor
will be able to pay Guarantor’s obligations as they become due and payable;
[2] the present fair saleable value of the Guarantor’s assets exceeds the amount
that will be required to pay Guarantor’s probable liability on its obligations
as the same become absolute and mature; [3] the sum of the Guarantor’s property
at a fair valuation exceeds Guarantor’s indebtedness; and [4] the Guarantor will
have sufficient capital to engage in Guarantor’s businesses. The proceeds of the
Credit constitute fair consideration and reasonably equivalent value for this
Guaranty.
 
3.    Waivers. Without notice to or consent of Guarantor, Landlord may do or
refrain from doing anything affecting any Credit or any Security, including the
following: [a] granting or not granting any indulgences to anyone liable for
payment of the Credit or any Security; [b] failing to get or to perfect any
Security; [c] failing to get an enforceable agreement to repay the Credit;
[d] releasing any Security or anyone or any property from liability for payment
of the Credit; [e] changing the Lease or any agreement relating to the Credit or
any Security; [f] extending the time for payment of the Credit, including
extending the time beyond
 

 
hcri\emeritus-ml2\Guaranty-Baty    - -9/24/04
     

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

 

the term of the Lease; [g] exercising any right or remedy, including, without
limitation, eviction of Tenant or termination of the Lease; [h] applying any
funds received from Tenant, Guarantor or any other party and any funds realized
from any Security in such manner and in such order or priority as Landlord
elects in its sole discretion; and [i] delaying in enforcing or failing to
enforce any rights to payment of the Credit or rights against any Security. In
the event that Landlord forecloses or otherwise realizes on any Security for
repayment of the Credit, Guarantor agrees that the purchase price at any
judicial or other sale of the Security paid by Landlord or any other party shall
be conclusive evidence of the value of the Security and Landlord shall have an
absolute right to obtain a deficiency judgment of all amounts due in excess of
such purchase price, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Guarantor waives
the right to contest the value of the Security through appraisals or otherwise,
and waives any defense to a deficiency judgment that Guarantor may have pursuant
to any statute or other applicable law.
 
Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that Guarantor may have because
Tenant’s debt or obligation is secured by real property. This means, among other
things:
 
(1)    Landlord may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real
or personal property collateral pledged by Tenant.
 
(2)    If Landlord forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Tenant:
 
(A)    The amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that
collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more
than the sale price.
 
(B)    Landlord may collect from Guarantor even if Landlord, by foreclosing on
the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor may have to
collect from Tenant.
 
This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses
Guarantor may have because Tenant’s debt is secured by real property. These
rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses
based upon §§580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.
 
Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies
by Landlord, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial
foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed
Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the
operation of §580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.

4.    Defects in Security, Etc. Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty shall
not be affected by [a] any default in any document concerning any Credit or
Security when accepted by Landlord or arising any time thereafter; [b] the
unenforceability of or defect in any Security or document relating to any
Credit; [c] any decline in the value of any Security; [d] Landlord’s failure to
obtain any Security or to perfect Landlord’s security interest therein; [e] the
death, incompetence, insolvency, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up of
affairs of Tenant, Guarantor, or anyone liable for any Security or the start of
insolvency proceedings by or against any such person or entity; [f] any
termination of the leasehold estate created by the Lease to the extent Tenant
remained liable under the Lease; [g] the release or discharge of Tenant in any
creditor’s, receivership, bankruptcy, other insolvency proceedings, or other
proceedings; [h] impairment, limitation or modification of the liability of
Tenant or the estate of Tenant in bankruptcy or of any remedy for the
enforcement of Tenant’s liability under the Lease, resulting from the operation
of any present or future provisions of the federal Bankruptcy Code or other
statutes or from the decision of any court; [i] the rejection or disaffirmance
of the Lease in any such proceedings; [j] the assignment or transfer of the
Lease by the Tenant; [k] any disability or other defense of Tenant; [l] the
cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Tenant under the Lease;
or [m] any reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, or sale of
substantially all the assets of Tenant.
 
5.    Waiver of Surety’s Defenses. GUARANTOR WAIVES ALL SURETYSHIP AND OTHER
SIMILAR DEFENSES.
 
6.    Unconditional Obligation. If Tenant fails to pay all or any part of any
Credit when due after expiration of any applicable grace, notice or cure period,
Guarantor shall immediately pay to Landlord all amounts then due and payable in
connection with any Credit, regardless of whether or not Landlord first pursues
Tenant or exhausts any of its rights or remedies against Tenant, any other
guarantor, others, or other Security. Guarantor shall not have any right of
subrogation to the rights of Landlord against any of the assets of Tenant or any
other guarantor of the Lease until after indefeasible payment in full of the
Credit.
 
7.    Continuing Obligation. This Guaranty shall extend and be applicable to all
renewals, amendments, extensions, consolidations, modifications, increases and
reductions of the Lease Documents and the Credit. Guarantor’s liability under
this Guaranty shall not be reduced or cancelled by any such action and shall be
deemed modified in accordance with the terms of such action, whether or not
Guarantor has notice of such action.
 
8.    Subordination. Guarantor subordinates to and postpones in favor of the
Credit and Security [a] any present and future debts and obligations of Tenant
to Guarantor (the "Indebtedness"), including, but not limited to, [i] salary,
bonuses, and other payments pursuant to any employment arrangement; [ii] fees,
reimbursement of expenses and other payments pursuant to any independent
contractor arrangement; [iii] principal and interest pursuant to any
Indebtedness; [iv] distributions payable to any shareholders or general or
limited partners of Tenant; and [v] lease payments pursuant to any leasing
arrangement; and [b] any liens or security interests securing payment of the
Indebtedness. Except as otherwise specified in the Lease, the provisions of this
paragraph shall be effective only [i] after the occurrence of an Event of
Default
 

 
hcri\emeritus-ml2\Guaranty-Baty    - -9/24/04
     

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

 

(as defined in the Lease) and until such Event of Default is cured, or
[ii] after the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding by or
against Tenant and until such proceeding is dismissed. Guarantor shall not ask
for, sue for, demand, take or receive any payment, by setoff or in any other
manner, including the receipt of a negotiable instrument, for all or any part of
the Indebtedness owed by Tenant, or any successor or assign of Tenant,
including, without limitation, a receiver, trustee or debtor in possession (the
term "Tenant" shall include any such successor or assign of Tenant) until the
Credit has been paid in full; however, if Guarantor receives such a payment,
Guarantor shall immediately deliver the payment to Landlord for credit against
the then outstanding balance of the Credit, whether matured or unmatured.
Notwithstanding any right of Guarantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive
any payment with respect to the Indebtedness, all rights, liens and security
interests of the Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising, in any assets of
the Tenant or in any Security shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights
of Landlord in such assets and Guarantor shall have no right to possession of
any such assets or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action
or otherwise, unless and until the Credit has been paid in full. Guarantor
agrees that Landlord shall be subrogated to the Guarantor with respect to the
Guarantor’s claims against Tenant and the Guarantor’s rights, liens and security
interest, if any, in any of the Tenant’s assets and proceeds thereof until all
of the Credit has been paid in full.
 
Guarantor warrants and represents that Guarantor has not previously assigned any
interest in the Indebtedness to any party other than Landlord, that no other
party owns an interest in the Indebtedness other than Guarantor, (whether as
joint holders of the Indebtedness, participants or otherwise) and that, except
as provided below, the entire Indebtedness is and shall continue to be owing
only to the Guarantor. Guarantor shall not assign or transfer to others any
claim Guarantor has or may have against the Tenant, unless such assignment or
transfer is made expressly subject to this Guaranty.
 
Any claim which Guarantor may make against Tenant or Tenant’s estate in any
bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings shall be expressly subject to the terms of
this §8.
 
In the event of any distribution of the assets or readjustment of the
obligations and indebtedness of the Tenant, whether by reason of liquidation,
bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors
or any other action or proceeding involving the readjustment of all or any of
the Indebtedness hereby subordinated, or the application of the assets of the
Tenant to the payment or liquidation thereof, Landlord shall be entitled to
receive payment in full of any and all of the Credit, due or not due, prior to
the payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness hereby subordinated, and in
order to enable Landlord to enforce its rights hereunder in any such action or
proceeding, Landlord is hereby authorized and empowered in its discretion to
make and present for and on behalf of Guarantor such proofs of claims against
the Tenant, if the Guarantor shall have failed to file any such proof of claim
within 30 days after Landlord has requested Guarantor to file such proofs of
claim on account of the Indebtedness hereby subordinated, as Landlord may deem
expedient or proper and to vote such proofs of claims in any such proceeding and
to receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements
made thereon in whatever form the same may be paid or issued and to apply the
same on account of any of the Credit.
 

 
hcri\emeritus-ml2\Guaranty-Baty    - -9/24/04
     

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

 

 
In the event of any distribution, division or application, partial or complete,
voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, of all or any part
of the assets of the Tenant or the proceeds thereof, to the creditors of the
Tenant’s business, or upon the sale of all or substantially all of the Tenant’s
assets, then, and in any such event, any payment or distribution of any kind or
character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable
or deliverable upon or with respect to any or all of the Indebtedness shall be
paid or delivered directly to Landlord for application on any of the Credit, due
or not due, until such Credit shall have first been fully paid and satisfied.
After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in the
event that Guarantor shall fail or refuse to take any action that Landlord
requests in writing that the Guarantor take with respect to the Indebtedness
within 30 days of the Guarantor’s receipt of such request, Guarantor authorizes
and empowers Landlord to demand, sue for, collect and receive every such payment
or distribution and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and take such
other proceedings, in Landlord’s own name or in the name of Guarantor or
otherwise, as Landlord may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of
this Guaranty; and Guarantor will execute and deliver to Landlord such powers of
attorney, assignments or other instruments or documents, as may be requested by
Landlord in order to enable Landlord to enforce any and all claims upon or with
respect to any or all of the Indebtedness and to collect and receive any and all
payments of distributions which may be payable or deliverable at any time upon
or with respect to the Indebtedness, all for Landlord’s own benefit.
 
Should any payment, distribution, security, instrument or proceeds which are
subject to the subordination contained in the first paragraph of this §8 be
received by Guarantor upon, or with respect to, the Indebtedness while such
subordination provision is effective and prior to the satisfaction of all of the
Credit and termination of all financing arrangements between the Tenant and
Landlord, Guarantor shall receive and hold the same in trust as trustee, for the
benefit of Landlord and shall forthwith deliver the same to Landlord in
precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the
Guarantor where necessary), for application on any of the Credit, due or not
due, and until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Guarantor as
the property of Landlord. In the event of the failure of Guarantor to make any
such endorsement or assignment to Landlord, Landlord, or any of its officers or
employees, is hereby irrevocably authorized to make the same.
 
Any instrument evidencing any of the Indebtedness, or any portion thereof, will,
on the date hereof or promptly hereafter, be inscribed with a legend
conspicuously indicating that payment thereof is subordinated to the claims of
Landlord, pursuant to the terms of this Guaranty, and will be delivered to
Landlord upon request therefor after the declaration of an Event of Default, if
such original is necessary in order to enable Landlord to take any action
permitted hereunder, including, without limitation, the filing of proofs of
claim on behalf of Guarantor.
 
This subordination shall continue and shall be irrevocable until all the terms,
covenants and conditions of the Credit have been fully and completely performed
by Tenant or otherwise discharged and released by Landlord, and the Guarantor
shall not be released from any
 

 
hcri\emeritus-ml2\Guaranty-Baty    - -9/24/04
     

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

 

duty, obligation or liability hereunder so long as there is any claim of
Landlord against Tenant arising out of the Credit which has not been performed,
settled or discharged in full.
 
9.    Financial Statements.
 
(a)    Financial Statements. Guarantor shall deliver to Landlord financial
statements in accordance with the provisions of the Lease. Guarantor shall
prepare financial statements once every six months. Landlord’s request for
periodic financial statements shall be satisfied upon Guarantor’s delivery of
the most currently prepared financial statements.
 
(b)    Certificate. With each delivery of financial statements, Guarantor shall
also provide to Landlord a Certificate in the form of Exhibit A.
 
(c)    Tax Returns. Guarantor shall deliver to Landlord federal tax returns in
accordance with the provisions of the Lease.
 
(d)    Other Information. Guarantor shall promptly furnish to Landlord such
other information and statements concerning the business affairs and financial
condition of the Guarantor as Landlord may reasonably request. Guarantor shall
give Landlord access to all books, records, and financial data of Guarantor by
or through any of Landlord’s officers, agents, attorneys or accountants, at all
reasonable times and upon reasonable prior notice. Landlord may examine,
inspect, and make extracts from Guarantor’s books and other records at all
reasonable times and upon reasonable prior notice, subject, however, to any
agreements made by Landlord regarding confidentiality of such information.
 
(e)    Covenants. Guarantor covenants that all financial statements of Guarantor
furnished on a consolidated basis with Tenant to Landlord will present fairly
the financial condition of Guarantor as of the dates of the statements and will
be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied
on a basis consistently maintained throughout the period involved.
 
10.    Lease Covenants. Throughout the term of the Lease, Guarantor shall comply
with all requirements and covenants of the Lease applicable to Guarantor.
 
11.    No Conveyance. Guarantor shall not sell, give, convey or otherwise
transfer, directly or indirectly, any of the assets of Guarantor to any person
("Transferee") if such transfer would cause a Material Adverse Change in the Net
Worth of Guarantor; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction shall not
apply to any transfer of assets made after Guarantor’s death pursuant to any
will, testament or applicable law of descent and distribution. For purposes of
this paragraph, Guarantor’s Net Worth shall be the net worth as reflected on the
financial statements provided by Guarantor to Landlord in connection with
Landlord’s acquisition of the Property. For purposes of this paragraph,
"Material Adverse Change" shall mean any change that will impair Guarantor’s
ability to meet his obligations under this Guaranty. Any transfer of assets that
is prohibited by this section shall constitute an Event of Default under the
Lease and shall be deemed to be a fraudulent conveyance against Landlord. In the
event of any such prohibited transfer, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce
this Guaranty against the Transferee and to seize all such transferred assets
and apply the proceeds from such assets to payment of the Credit, whether
matured or unmatured.

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

 

 
12.    Subsequent Guaranties. No subsequent guaranty to Landlord by Guarantor
shall supersede or terminate this Guaranty, but shall be an additional guaranty
unless otherwise stated therein and, if Guarantor has given a previous guaranty
to Landlord, this Guaranty shall be in addition to the previous guaranty.
 
13.    Successors, Etc. This Guaranty shall be binding upon not only Guarantor
but also Guarantor’s successors, heirs, administrators, personal representatives
and permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Landlord and its
successors and assigns.
 
14.    Termination; Revocation. Subject to reinstatement pursuant to §15, this
Guaranty shall automatically terminate on the date on which all of the Credit is
paid in full. No revocation of this Guaranty or any substitute guaranty by
Guarantor shall be effective until all of the Credit has been paid in full.
 
15.    Survival. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty will
continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case might be, if at any
time any payment from the Tenant of any sum due to the Landlord is rescinded or
must otherwise be restored or returned by the Landlord on the insolvency,
bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Tenant or as a
result of the appointment of a custodian, conservator, receiver, trustee or
other officer with similar powers with respect to the Tenant or any part of the
Tenant’s property or otherwise.
 
16.    Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of Ohio without giving effect to
the conflict of laws rules thereof.
 
17.    Number; Gender. Where appropriate, the number of any word in this
Guaranty shall include both singular and plural, the gender of any word shall be
masculine, feminine, or neuter.
 
18.    Enforceability. If any provision of this Guaranty or the application
thereof to anyone or any circumstance shall be adjudged invalid or unenforceable
to any extent, the application of the remainder of the provision to the party or
circumstance, the application of the provision to other parties or
circumstances, and the application of the remainder of this Guaranty shall not
be affected thereby. Each provision of this Guaranty shall be valid and
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
 
19.    No Waivers by Landlord. No forbearance by Landlord in exercising any
right under this Guaranty, any Credit, or any Security shall operate as a waiver
thereof; no forbearance in exercising any right under this Guaranty, any Credit,
or any Security on any one or more occasions shall operate as a waiver of such
right on any other occasion; and no single or partial exercise of any right
under this Guaranty, any Credit, or any Security shall preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or
privilege. Landlord’s rights under this Guaranty are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights or remedies that Landlord may otherwise have.
