Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of July 29, 2005 by and among
Senior Housing Properties Trust (“Borrower”), as borrower, each of the financial
institutions party thereto together with their assignees under Section 12.5
thereof, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, successor by merger to
Wachovia Bank, National Association (“Agent”), as Agent for the Lenders, as
amended by a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated
November 15, 2006 (as so amended, the “Credit Agreement”).  All capitalized
terms used in this letter without definition shall have the respective meanings
specified in the Credit Agreement.

 

This letter is to confirm that, pursuant to your request dated November 23,
2010, we have agreed to extend the Termination Date for a period of one (1) year
from December 31, 2010 to December 31, 2011 pursuant to and in accordance with
Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement.  The effectiveness of such extension is
subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent: (a) that no
Default or Event of Default shall exist as of the date of the current
Termination Date or would exist immediately after giving effect to the requested
extension; (b) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the
Borrower and each other Loan Party in the Loan Documents to which any of them is
a party would be true and correct immediately after giving effect to the
requested extension of the Termination Date, except to the extent that such
representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in
which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and accurate
on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances
specifically and expressly permitted hereunder; and (c) the Borrower shall have
paid to Agent, for the account of the Lenders, a fee in the amount of $825,000
(the “Extension Fee”) prior to the commencement of such extension.

Except as herein expressly amended, all terms, covenants and provisions of the
Credit Agreement are and shall remain in full force and effect and all
references therein to such Credit Agreement shall henceforth refer to the Credit
Agreement as amended by this letter agreement.

 

THIS LETTER AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY
PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

 

This letter agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original,
but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

 

All conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the extension contemplated
hereby shall be deemed satisfied upon the execution and delivery of this letter
agreement by Agent to Borrower.
