such) and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, from any and all liabilities whatsoever to the Releasing Party or any of its affiliates (in the case of the Manager) or controlled affiliates (in the case of the
Company), whether at law or in equity (including any right of contribution), whether arising under any contract, by operation of law or otherwise, existing or arising from any acts or events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred
or to have failed to occur or any conditions existing or alleged to have existed at or before the Effective Date; provided, however, that this release does not purport to apply to (i) the proceeding captioned Cumming v.
Edens, C.A. No. 13007-VCS, pending in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the “Derivative Litigation”), (ii) any indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 11 of the Management
Agreement as described in Sections 1.01 and 6.01, which obligations shall survive as set forth in such Sections or (iii) any rights of a Party under this Agreement or the TSA.

 (b) Each Releasing Party expressly understands and acknowledges that it is
possible that unknown losses or claims exist or might come to exist or that present losses may have been underestimated in amount, severity, or both. Accordingly, each Releasing Party is deemed expressly to understand provisions and principles of
law such as Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California (as well as any and all provisions, rights and benefits conferred by any law of any state or territory of the United States, or principle of common law, which is similar or
comparable to Section 1542), which Section provides: A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR
HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR. Each Releasing Party is hereby deemed to agree that the provisions of Section 1542 and all similar federal or state laws, rights, rules or legal principles of
California or any other jurisdiction that may be applicable herein, are hereby knowingly and voluntarily waived and relinquished with respect to the release in Section 8.01(a). 

SECTION 8.02. Further Assurances. Subject to the limitations or other provisions of this Agreement, (a) each Party shall use
commercially reasonable efforts (subject to, and in accordance with applicable law) to take promptly, or cause to be taken promptly, all actions, and to do promptly, or cause to be done promptly, and to assist and cooperate with the other Party in
doing, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement and (b) neither Party will take any action
which would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impede, interfere with or delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given, made and received when delivered against receipt or upon actual receipt of (i) personal delivery, (ii) delivery by reputable

 EXHIBIT A 

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION OF 

SERIES A CUMULATIVE PERPETUAL PREFERRED STOCK OF 

NEW SENIOR INVESTMENT GROUP INC. 

Pursuant to Section 151 of the 

General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware 

New Senior Investment Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), certifies that pursuant to the authority
contained in its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended from time to time, the “Certificate of Incorporation”), and in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”), on [•], 2018, duly approved and adopted the following resolution, which resolution remains in full force and
effect on the date hereof: 
 RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority vested in the Board of Directors by the Certificate of Incorporation,
the Board of Directors does hereby designate, create, authorize and provide for out of the 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, authorized in Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation, the issue of a series of
preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), having the following powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and qualifications, limitations and
restrictions thereof: 
 Section 1. Designation. The shares of such series of Preferred Stock shall be designated as Series A
Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), with a liquidation preference amount of $100 per share (the “Liquidation Preference”). For the avoidance of doubt,
the Liquidation Preference shall not be subject to any upward or downward adjustment except as set forth in Section 11(a). The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank, with respect to payment of dividends and distributions, and the distribution of
assets upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, winding-up or dissolution (a “Liquidation”) of the Corporation, (a) senior to the common stock of the Corporation (the
“Common Stock”), whether now outstanding or hereafter issued, and to each other class or series of stock of the Corporation (including any class or series of preferred stock established after December 31, 2018 (the
“Issue Date”) by the Board of Directors) the terms of which do not expressly provide that such class or series ranks senior to, or pari passu with, the Series A Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and distributions, and the
distribution of assets upon the Liquidation of the Corporation (collectively, “Junior Stock”); (b) pari passu with each other class or series of stock of the Corporation (including any class or series of preferred stock
established after the Issue Date by the Board of Directors) the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and distributions, and the distribution of
assets upon any Liquidation of the Corporation (collectively, “Parity Stock”); and (c) junior to each other class or series of stock of the Corporation (including any class or series of preferred stock established after the
Issue Date 












 
by the Board of Directors) the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series ranks senior to the Series A Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and distributions, and the
distribution of assets upon any Liquidation of the Corporation (collectively, “Senior Stock”). The Corporation’s ability to issue Parity Stock and Senior Stock shall be subject to the provisions of Section 5. 

Section 2. Number of Shares. The number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be 400,000. Such number may,
from time to time, be increased (but not in excess of the total number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock) or decreased (but not below the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding) by further resolution duly adopted by the
Board of Directors and in a manner permitted by the DGCL and the terms provided herein. 
 Section 3. Dividends. 

(a) Rate. Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock at a
rate per annum of 6.00% (the “Dividend Rate”) per share on the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) all accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to such share for all prior Dividend Payment Periods (as
defined below). Dividends shall be cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears on the fifteenth (15th) calendar day (or the following Business Day if the fifteenth (15th) calendar day is not a Business Day) of January, April, July and October of
each year (commencing on April 15, 2019) (each such date, a “Dividend Payment Date”, and the period from and including the Issue Date to the first Dividend Payment Date and each such quarterly period thereafter beginning on the
day after the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date and ending on and including the immediately following Dividend Payment Date are each referred to herein as a “Dividend Payment Period”); provided that if the
declaration and payment of such dividends is not permitted either (x) under applicable law because the Corporation does not have sufficient profits, surplus or other funds legally available for the payment of such dividends or (y) under
the terms of the Corporate Credit Facility (as defined below) (provided that, in the case of clause (y), the Corporation has also suspended the payment of any and all dividends on all other classes and series of capital stock of the
Corporation), such dividends shall not be required to be declared or be paid or payable on such Dividend Payment Date, and instead, such dividends shall be declared, become payable and be paid on the first succeeding Dividend Payment Date on which
the Corporation is not prohibited from declaring and paying such dividends (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such dividends shall be payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, any dividends which would otherwise be payable on such succeeding
Dividend Payment Date); provided, further, that accrued and unpaid dividends for any prior quarterly period may be paid at any time. Dividends, whether or not declared by the Board of Directors and whether or not there are profits,
surplus or other funds of the Corporation legally available therefor, will accrue at the Dividend Rate on a daily basis from and including the Issue Date and computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the
actual number of days elapsed for any Dividend Payment Period. 
 (b) Payment. The Corporation shall either pay the dividends payable
on each Dividend Payment Date entirely in cash or, if the Corporation does not pay such Dividends entirely in cash on any Dividend Payment Date, then such accrued and unpaid dividends on each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be accumulated
and shall remain as an amount of accrued and unpaid Dividends on such share until paid in cash to the Holder thereof. Dividends shall 

  
 -2- 













 
accumulate whether or not in any Dividend Payment Period there have been profits, surplus or other funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of such Dividends. If the Corporation
does not pay Dividends entirely in cash on any Dividend Payment Date, then, not less than ten (10) days prior to such Dividend Payment Date, the Corporation (or Transfer Agent) shall provide to the Holders of record as of the applicable
Dividend Record Date (as defined below), by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Holders of record at their respective last addresses appearing on the stock ledger of the Corporation, a statement setting forth the aggregate amount of
accrued and unpaid dividends for such Dividend Payment Period and all prior Dividend Payment Periods with respect to each share of Series A Preferred Stock. Each dividend paid in cash shall be paid by wire transfer in immediately available funds to
the account(s) designated by each Holder in writing given to the Corporation from time to time. 
 (c) Record Date. Dividends shall be
payable (i) in the case of dividends paid in cash on a Dividend Payment Date, to the Holders of record at the close of business on the last Business Day of the calendar month immediately preceding the month during which the Dividend Payment
Date falls and (ii) in the case of dividends that are initially not paid in cash and instead accumulated and subsequently paid upon a payment date established by the Corporation for such purpose, to the Holders of record the date that is ten
(10) days prior to the applicable payment date of such accumulated and unpaid dividends (each such record date, a “Dividend Record Date”). For clarity, in the case of payments pursuant to Section 4 in connection with a
Liquidation or pursuant to Section 6 in connection with a redemption, such payments (including in respect of dividends that are initially not paid in cash and instead accumulated) shall be made to Holders in accordance with such Sections. 

(d) Payment Restrictions. No dividends or other distributions (other than a dividend or distribution payable solely in shares of Parity
Stock or Junior Stock (in the case of Parity Stock) or Junior Stock (in the case of Junior Stock) and other than cash paid in lieu of fractional shares) may be declared, made or paid, or set apart for payment upon, any Parity Stock or Junior Stock,
nor may any Parity Stock or Junior Stock be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any money paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any Parity Stock or Junior Stock) by or on behalf of the
Corporation (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of Parity Stock or Junior Stock (in the case of Parity Stock) or Junior Stock (in the case of Junior Stock)), unless all accrued and unpaid dividends shall have been or contemporaneously
are declared and paid, or are declared and a sum of cash sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart in a segregated account for such payment, on all issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock for all Dividend Payment
Periods ending on or prior to the date of such declaration, payment, redemption, purchase or acquisition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if full cumulative and unpaid dividends have not been paid on the Series A Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock,
dividends may be declared and paid on the Series A Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock so long as the dividends are declared and paid pro rata so that the per share amount of dividends declared on the Series A Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock
will in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued and unpaid dividends per share on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and such other Parity Stock bear to each other. Subject to the foregoing, dividends (payable in cash, stock or
otherwise) as may be determined by the Board of Directors may be declared and paid on the Common Stock and any Parity Stock or Junior Stock, from time to time out of the funds of the Corporation legally available therefor, and the Series A
Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to participate in any such dividends. 

  
 -3- 













 Section 4. Liquidation Preference. In the event of any Liquidation of the
Corporation, each Holder shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof available for distribution to stockholders of the Corporation (whether capital or surplus), before any distribution of assets is made on
the Common Stock or any other Junior Stock, an amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock held by such Holder equal to the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) all accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to such share
through and including the date of such Liquidation of the Corporation. Without limiting the provisions set forth in Section 6(c) below, none of (i) the sale of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Corporation (other
than in connection with the Liquidation of the Corporation), (ii) the merger, division, conversion or consolidation of the Corporation into or with any other Person or (iii) the merger, division, conversion or consolidation of any other
Person into or with the Corporation, shall constitute a Liquidation of the Corporation for the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence. 

If the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to the Holders upon any Liquidation of the Corporation shall be insufficient to
pay in full all amounts to which such Holders are entitled pursuant to this Section 4, no such distribution shall be made on account of any shares of Parity Stock upon such Liquidation unless proportionate distributable amounts shall be paid on
account of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, ratably, in proportion to the full distributable amounts for which such Holders and holders of any Parity Stock are entitled upon such Liquidation, with the amount allocable to each class or series
of such stock determined on a pro rata basis of the aggregate liquidation preference of the outstanding shares of each class or series and accrued and unpaid dividends to which each class or series is entitled. 

After the payment to the Holders of the full preferential amounts provided for in this Section 4, such Holders such shall have no right
or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation. 
 Section 5. Voting Rights. Holders of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock will not have any voting rights, including the right to elect any directors, except (i) voting rights, if any, required by law, and (ii) voting rights, if any, described in this Section 5. So long as any Series A Preferred Stock
is outstanding, in addition to any other vote of stockholders of the Corporation required under applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote or consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single class, will be required to (i) alter or amend this Certificate of Designation (whether by amendment, merger or otherwise), (ii) alter or amend the provisions of the Certificate of
Incorporation (whether by amendment, merger or otherwise) so as to adversely affect the powers, preferences, privileges or rights of the Holders of Series A Preferred Stock, (iii) authorize, create, issue or increase the authorized amount of,
or any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing a right to purchase, any Series A Preferred Stock, Parity Stock or Senior Stock, (iv) classify or reclassify any authorized stock of the Corporation into any Parity Stock or Senior
Stock, or any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing a right to purchase any Senior Stock or (v) enter into any contractual arrangements by the Corporation, other than the Corporate Credit Facility, that by their terms prohibit
or restrict the payment of 

  
 -4- 













 
dividends by the Corporation with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, no such vote shall be required for the Corporation to authorize, create, issue or increase
in the authorized amount of any capital stock or obligation or security not otherwise prohibited by clause (iii) of the preceding sentence. 

Section 6. Redemption. 

(a) Redemption at the Option of the Corporation. 

(i) The Corporation, at the option of the Board of Directors, may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock in whole (but not in part), at a
redemption price per share equal to the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) all accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to such share up to but excluding the Corporation Redemption Date (as defined below), payable in
cash out of funds of the Corporation legally available therefor. 
 (ii) In the event the Corporation shall determine to redeem the Series A
Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6(a), the Corporation will give notice of any such redemption (a “Corporation Notice of Redemption”) by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of record of the Series A
Preferred Stock not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock are to be redeemed (the “Corporation Redemption Date”), including instructions for redemption. The Notice
of Redemption shall specify the Corporation Redemption Date, the redemption price determined in accordance with this Section 6(a) and the place or places of payment. Failure to give notice to any Holder of record of the Series A Preferred Stock
shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of shares of any other Holder of record of the Series A Preferred Stock being redeemed. 

(iii) On the date of any such redemption, the Corporation shall pay to the Holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed
the redemption price determined in accordance with this Section 6(a), and on the Corporation Redemption Date, dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption shall cease to accrue and such Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed
will no longer be deemed outstanding, whether or not the certificates therefor have been surrendered, and all rights of the Holders thereof will cease (other than the right to receive payment of the redemption price by following the redemption
instructions). 
 (iv) Nothing contained in this Section 6 shall limit any legal right of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise
acquire any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock. 
 (b) Redemption at the Option of the Holder. (i) On or after
December 31, 2020, the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to require the Corporation to redeem up to 50% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and
(ii) on or after December 31, 2021, the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to require the Corporation to redeem up to 100% of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, in each case, for cash at a redemption price per share equal to the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) all accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to such shares being redeemed up to but excluding


  
 -5- 













 
the Holder Redemption Date (as defined below), by giving the Corporation written notice (a “Holder Notice of Redemption”) of the exercise of such right and specifying the date,
which shall not be less than ten (10) Business Days after the date of such notice, on which such redemption is to be made (the “Holder Redemption Date”). On the date of any such redemption, the Corporation shall pay to the
Holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed the redemption price determined in accordance with this Section 6(b) (which payment shall be made on a pro rata basis in the case of any partial redemption), and on the Holder
Redemption Date, dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption shall cease to accrue and such Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed will no longer be deemed outstanding, whether or not the certificates therefor have been
surrendered, and all rights of the Holders thereof will cease (other than the right to receive payment of the redemption price by following the redemption instructions). 

(c) Mandatory Redemption. Upon a Change of Control of the Corporation, the Corporation shall redeem 100% of the outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock upon closing of such Change of Control transaction for cash at a redemption price per share equal to the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) all accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to such
share up to but excluding the closing date of such Change of Control transaction (the “Change of Control Redemption Date”, and any Change of Control Redemption Date, Corporation Redemption Date or Holder Redemption Date, the
“Redemption Date”). In the event of a Change of Control, the Corporation will give a notice (a “Change of Control Notice of Redemption”, and any Change of Control Notice of Redemption, Corporation Notice of
Redemption or Holder Notice of Redemption, a “Notice of Redemption”) by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Change of
Control Redemption Date, including instructions for redemption; provided, that the Change of Control Notice of Redemption given pursuant to this Section 6(c) may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of
such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Notice of Redemption is given. The Change of Control Notice of Redemption shall specify the Change of Control Redemption Date,
the redemption price determined in accordance with this Section 6(c), and the place or places of payment. Failure to give notice to any Holder of record of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the
redemption of shares of any other Holder of record of the Series A Preferred Stock being redeemed. On the date of any such redemption, the Corporation shall pay to the Holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed the redemption
price determined in accordance with this Section 6(c), and on the Change of Control Redemption Date, dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption shall cease to accumulate and such Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed will no
longer be deemed outstanding, whether or not the certificates therefor have been surrendered, and all rights of the Holders thereof will cease (other than the right to receive the payment of the redemption price by following the redemption
instructions). If applicable law does not permit the Corporation to consummate such mandatory redemption because the Corporation does not have sufficient assets or funds legally available therefor, then upon such Change of Control, all then
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be purchased from the Holders by the acquiring person in such Change of Control for cash at a price per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the same then applicable mandatory redemption
price set forth in this Section 6(c). 

  
 -6- 













 (d) Constructive Redemption. After the Notice of Redemption shall have been mailed,
the Corporation may irrevocably deposit, for the pro rata benefit of the Holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption pursuant to Section 6(a), 6(b) or 6(c), as applicable, the funds necessary for such redemption
(including funds sufficient to pay in cash any dividends that would accrue up to the applicable Redemption Date) (such funds, the “Constructive Redemption Amount”) in a segregated escrow account with a bank or trust company selected
by the Board of Directors (which may not be an Affiliate of the Corporation) that has a capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000, with such escrow arrangements providing for the irrevocable release and payment of such funds to the Holders of
record of the Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption. No interest shall accrue for the benefit of the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such Constructive Redemption Amount so set aside by the Corporation. The
payment obligations of the Corporation under Section 6(a), 6(b) or 6(c), as applicable, shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged upon the irrevocable deposit of the Constructive Redemption Amount in accordance with the terms of this
Section 6(d). Subject to applicable escheat laws, any portion of the Constructive Redemption Amount unclaimed at the end of two years from the Redemption Date shall revert to the general funds of the Corporation, after which reversion the
Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall look only to the general funds of the Corporation for the payment of such Constructive Redemption Amount. 

(e) Real Estate Investment Trust Status; REIT Status Redemption. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of
Designation, (i) the Series A Preferred Stock shall be subject to the provisions of Article Eleventh of the Certificate of Incorporation, including the provisions thereof requiring shares of Capital Stock (including Series A Preferred Stock)
Beneficially or Constructively Owned by a stockholder in excess of the Aggregate Stock Ownership Limit to automatically be transferred to a Trust for the benefit of a Charitable Beneficiary, and the Board of Directors and the Corporation shall have
all rights and remedies provided in Article Eleventh of the Certificate of Incorporation, and (ii) without limiting the foregoing, the Corporation, at any time at the option of the Board of Directors, may redeem all or any portion of the Series
A Preferred Stock, at a redemption price per share equal to the sum of (x) the Liquidation Preference plus (y) all accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to such shares being redeemed up to but excluding the REIT Status
Redemption Date (as defined below), to the extent the Board of Directors determines in its sole discretion that such redemption is necessary or desirable to minimize the likelihood that any Person’s ownership of Series A Preferred Stock would
cause a violation of the Aggregate Stock Ownership Limit or would otherwise jeopardize the Corporation’s status as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the event the Corporation shall determine to redeem all
or any portion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6(e), the Corporation will give notice of any such redemption (a “REIT Status Notice of Redemption”) by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders
of record of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock are to be redeemed (the “REIT Status Redemption Date”), including
instructions for redemption. The REIT Status Notice of Redemption shall specify the REIT Status Redemption Date, the redemption price determined in accordance with this Section 6(e) and the place or places of payment. Failure to give notice to
any Holder of record of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of shares of any other Holder of record of the Series A Preferred Stock being redeemed. On the date of any such redemption, the


  
 -7- 













 
Corporation shall pay to the Holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed the redemption price determined in accordance with this Section 6(e), and on the REIT Status
Redemption Date, dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption shall cease to accrue and such Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed will no longer be deemed outstanding, whether or not the certificates therefor have been
surrendered, and all rights of the Holders thereof will cease (other than the right to receive payment of the redemption price by following the redemption instructions). Capitalized terms used in this Section 6(e) but not defined in this
Certificate of Designation shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Certificate of Incorporation. 
 Section 7. Preemption
and Conversion. Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not entitled to any preemptive, conversion or subscription rights in respect of any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Corporation. 

Section 8. Reacquired Shares. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock that have been issued and redeemed or otherwise purchased or
acquired by the Corporation shall be restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock without designation as to series. 

Section 9. Transfer of Shares. 

(a) Compliance with Securities Laws. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act or any
other applicable securities laws and may not be offered or sold except in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the
Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, or in a transaction not subject to such laws. 
 (b) Legend. Each certificate

Form of Transition Services Agreement 












 EXHIBIT B 

TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT 

This TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of [•], 2018, and effective as of January 1, 2019
(the “Effective Date”), is made by and between NEW SENIOR INVESTMENT GROUP INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and FIG LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Service Provider”). The
Company and Service Provider are collectively referred to as the “Parties” and each individually as a “Party.” 

WITNESSETH: 
 WHEREAS the Company
and Service Provider are party to that certain Termination and Cooperation Agreement, dated as of November 19, 2018 (the “Termination Agreement”), pursuant to which the Parties have agreed to terminate Service Provider’s
role as external manager of the Company as of the Effective Date; and 
 WHEREAS pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the Company and its
affiliates will continue to require that Service Provider provide or cause to be provided certain services during a transitional period following the Effective Date on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein,
and intending to be legally bound hereby, subject to the conditions and other terms herein set forth, the Parties hereby agree as follows: 

ARTICLE I 
 Services 

SECTION 1.1. Services. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Service Provider shall provide to the Company and its
affiliates the services set forth on Schedule A attached hereto (together, the “Services”). The Company acknowledges and agrees that Service Provider may provide Services itself or by or through one or more of its affiliates
or, subject to the Company’s prior consent upon reasonable advance notice, third party contractors; provided, however, that Service Provider shall remain responsible for Services provided by its affiliates or third party
contractors and any subcontracting shall not relieve Service Provider of its obligations hereunder, including with respect to the scope and level of Services. Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its general
practices to cause each third party contractor on whose services the Services are dependent to comply with the relevant third party contractor’s contractual obligations. 












 SECTION 1.2. Use of Premises. (a) The Services shall include a right of the
Company to continue to use the same space to the same extent of, and for the same purposes as, such use prior to the Effective Date with respect to the premises located at 1345 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York (the “Occupied
Premises”) during the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on June 30, 2019; provided that (i) the Company will be responsible for reimbursing Service Provider for its pro rata share of the rent, any real-estate taxes
and any other real-estate costs associated with the Occupied Premises, (ii) all personnel of the Company or any of its subsidiaries who occupy the Occupied Premises shall remain subject to all compliance rules and policies applicable to the
employees of Service Provider and its affiliates and (iii) the Company will be responsible for reimbursing Service Provider for its pro rata share of any costs associated with implementation and oversight of such compliance rules and policies.
For purposes of this Section 1.2, the pro rata share of the rent, taxes and costs allocated to the Company under clauses (i) and (iii) of this Section 1.2 shall be calculated based on the
methodology customarily applied by Fortress Investment Group LLC in allocating these types of costs in respect of the Occupied Premises among its affiliates and shall be equal to the amount set forth on Schedule A. 

(b) If Service Provider enters into any negotiations with potential subtenants in respect of the Occupied Premises, Service Provider shall keep
the Company reasonably informed regarding the status of any such negotiations. In the event that prior to June 30, 2019, Service Provider agrees to sublet or terminate the underlying lease agreement in respect of the Occupied Premises, the
Company shall vacate the Occupied Premises upon thirty (30) days’ written notice (or, if greater, such longer time period afforded to Service Provider under any sublease or termination arrangement) provided by Service Provider . 

SECTION 1.3. Additional Services. Services not agreed upon in Schedule A but provided during the twelve (12) month period
prior to the Effective Date by Service Provider to the Company can be requested in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, within a commercially reasonable period of time, Service Provider and the Company shall discuss in good faith such requested
additional services (the “Additional Services”) and the terms and conditions applicable to such Additional Services. If Service Provider agrees to provide such Additional Services and the Parties reach an agreement in writing on the
terms and conditions for such Additional Services, then Service Provider shall provide such Additional Services on such terms and conditions, and Schedule A shall be deemed amended to include the Additional Services, which shall be provided
in accordance with such agreed terms and conditions and the other applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Additional Services shall be deemed to be Services hereunder. 

SECTION 1.4. Performance of Services. Service Provider shall provide, or cause one or more of its affiliates or third party contractors
to provide, the Services in accordance with applicable law and any of Service Provider’s written policies and procedures and within the same standard and manner that is commensurate in all material respects (in nature, quality and timeliness)
with the manner in which they were provided to the Company during the one-year period prior to the Effective Date, subject to any limitations or restrictions agreed to in writing by the Parties (such agreement
not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), which limitations or restrictions are 

  
 -2- 













 
posed by or resulting from (a) any modification in process for providing Services necessitated by the separation of the management of the Company from Service Provider’s continuing
operations, (b) any change in scope (as agreed in writing by the Parties from time-to-time during the Term), and (c) any restrictions imposed on Service
Provider by applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, in providing the Services, Service Provider may use any information systems, hardware, software, processes and procedures it deems necessary or desirable in its reasonable discretion. 

SECTION 1.5. Connectivity, Compliance and Security Measures. The Company shall comply with all policies and procedures of Service
Provider that have been provided to the Company in connection with its access to and use of the Services. 
 SECTION 1.6. Cost
Reimbursements. (a) As compensation to Service Provider for the Services set forth on Schedule A rendered hereunder, the Company shall, for each Service performed, reimburse Service Provider for its cost of providing the
Services, including the allocated cost of, among other things, overhead, employee wages and compensation and actually incurred out-of-pocket expenses, in each case,
determined using Service Provider’s cost allocation methodology consistent with past practice, without any intent to cause Service Provider to receive profit or incur loss (the “Cost Reimbursements”). On a monthly basis,
Service Provider shall provide an invoice setting forth the Cost Reimbursements to be charged in arrears to the Company hereunder, including reasonable supporting documentation. Cost Reimbursements shall be paid within forty-five (45) days of
the Company’s receipt of such invoice. Late payments shall bear interest at the lesser of the prime rate plus two percent (2%) per annum or the maximum rate allowed by law. 

(b) All sales, use, service and other similar taxes, levies and charges imposed by applicable taxing authorities on the provision of Services
(collectively, “Taxes”) shall be borne by the Company (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Taxes measured by reference to net income). If Service Provider or any of its affiliates or third party contractors are required to
pay such Taxes, (i) Service Provider shall invoice the Company for such Taxes and (ii) the Company shall promptly reimburse Service Provider therefor in accordance with this Section 1.6(b). 

SECTION 1.7. Direction and Control of Employees. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, for purposes of all compensation and employee
benefits and welfare matters, all employees and representatives of Service Provider, its affiliates and third party contractors shall be deemed to be employees or representatives of Service Provider, its affiliates or third party contractors and not
employees or representatives of the Company. In performing the Services, such employees and representatives shall be under the direction, control and supervision of Service Provider, its affiliates or third party contractors (and not the Company or
its affiliates) and Service Provider, its affiliates and third party contractors shall have the sole right to exercise all authority with respect to the employment (including termination of employment), assignment and compensation of such employees,
representatives and third party contractors. 

  
 -3- 













 SECTION 1.8. Cooperation of Service Provider. During the Term and following any
termination of this Agreement or a Service, Service Provider shall, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its affiliates and third party contractors to, at the Company’s cost, cooperate in good faith with the Company and its
affiliates to transfer records and take such other actions reasonably requested by the Company to enable it to make alternative arrangements for the provision of services substantially consistent with the Services or the replacement of the Services.

 SECTION 1.9. Return of Records owned by the Company. Upon termination of a Service with respect to which Service Provider or its
affiliates holds books, records or files, including current or archived copies of computer files, owned by the Company or its affiliates and used by Service Provider, its affiliates or its third party contractors in connection with the provision of
a Service to the Company or its affiliates, Service Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts to return all of such books, records or files as soon as reasonably practicable. The Parties acknowledge and agree that copies of emails relating
to the conduct of the business of the Company will be retained by Service Provider in its archival records in compliance with its statutory obligations as an investment adviser. Additionally, Service Provider or its affiliates may retain copies of
books, records and files (a) as necessary to comply with applicable laws or court orders and (b) to the extent they have become included in automatic “backups” by routine procedures or by electronic communication or information
management systems without the requirement to “scrub” such systems or its backup servers, provided that such copies retained by Service Provider shall remain subject to the use and confidentiality restrictions in this Agreement until such
copies are destroyed by Service Provider in accordance with its own information technology and record retention policies and applicable law. 

SECTION 1.10. Work Product and Intellectual Property. Service Provider acknowledges that any and all writings, documents, designs, data
and other materials that Service Provider makes, conceives or develops at any time as a result of Service Provider’s performance of the Services may be utilized by the Company to the extent necessary to receive and use the Services
hereunder. Each Party shall retain the entire right, title and interest in and to intellectual property and other proprietary information that existed prior to, or are created independently of the performance of the Services. In addition,
the Company shall be the sole and exclusive owner of any right, title, license or other interest in or to, Transition IP solely to the extent exclusively related to the business of the Company. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, Service
Provider shall be the sole and exclusive owner of any right, title, license or other interest in or to, all Transition IP, and, for the avoidance of doubt, no such items shall be considered a work made for hire within the meaning of Title 17 of the
United States Code. For purpose of this Agreement, “Transition IP” shall mean any copyrights, patents, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights to the extent developed, created, modified, or improved, or used or relied
upon, by Service Provider or its affiliates or third party contractors in connection with the Services or the performance of Service Provider’s obligations hereunder.

rights with respect to, exemplary, punitive, special, incidental, lost profits, consequential or speculative damages, except to the extent paid in connection with a claim by a third party. Subject to Section 2.4(c), in no event shall
Service Provider’s liability in the aggregate for any and all damages and losses hereunder exceed the total amount billed to the Company or payable by the Company to Service Provider under this Agreement, it being understood that this
limitation shall not apply to breaches of the confidentiality provisions set forth in Section 5.2 or in the case of fraud or willful misconduct of Service Provider. 

(b) The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold Service Provider and its successors, assigns, members, affiliates, employees, officers,
participants, shareholders, directors and personal representatives, harmless from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively,

Representatives within thirty (30) days, each Party will be entitled to refer the dispute to arbitration in accordance with Section 4.3.

conducted in New York, New York. There shall be three arbitrators. Each Party shall appoint one arbitrator. The two Party-appointed arbitrators shall agree on a third arbitrator who will chair
the arbitral tribunal. Any arbitrator not appointed within a reasonable time shall be appointed in accordance with the CPR Rules. Any controversy concerning whether an Agreement Dispute is an arbitrable Agreement Dispute, whether arbitration has
been waived, whether an assignee of this Agreement is bound to arbitrate, or as to the interpretation or enforceability of this Section 4.3 will be determined by the arbitrators. In resolving any Agreement Dispute, the
Parties intend that the arbitrators apply the substantive laws of the State of New York, without regard to any choice of law principles thereof that would mandate the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. The Parties intend that the
provisions to arbitrate set forth herein be valid, enforceable and irrevocable, and any award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Parties agree to comply with any award made in any such arbitration proceedings
and agree to enforcement of or entry of judgment upon such award, in any court of competent jurisdiction, including any New York State or federal court. The arbitrators shall be entitled, if appropriate, to award monetary damages and other remedies,
subject to the provisions of Section 2.4(a). The Parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to encourage the arbitrators to resolve any arbitration related to any Agreement Dispute as promptly as practicable. Except
as required by applicable law, including disclosure or reporting requirements, the arbitrators and the Parties shall maintain the confidentiality of all information, records, reports, or other documents obtained in the course of the arbitration, and
of all awards, orders, or other arbitral decisions rendered by the arbitrators. 
 (b) The arbitrators may consolidate arbitration under this
Agreement with any arbitration arising under or relating to the Termination Agreement or Section 11 of the Management and Advisory Agreement, dated as of November 6, 2014, by and between the Company and Service Provider, if the subjects of
the Agreement Disputes thereunder arise out of or relate essentially to the same set of facts or transactions. Such consolidated arbitration will be determined by the arbitrators appointed for the arbitration proceeding that was commenced first in
time. 
 (c) Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties will continue to provide service and honor all other commitments under this
Agreement and the Termination Agreement during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this ARTICLE IV; provided, however, that Service Provider will not be required to continue to perform Services for
which it has not been (or is not being) reimbursed in accordance with Section 1.6 until such reimbursement is made.

(ii) is obtained from a third party who is lawfully authorized to disclose such information free from any obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party; or (iii) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or
reference to any Confidential Material. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives is (A) compelled in any legal process or proceeding to disclose any Confidential Material of the
Disclosing Party or (B) requested or required by any governmental entity to disclose any Confidential Material, the Receiving Party shall, to the extent not prohibited by law or rule, promptly notify the Disclosing Party in writing of such
request or requirement so that the Disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive in writing the Receiving Party’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.2. If, in the absence of a
protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Receiving Party is nonetheless compelled to disclose Confidential Material of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party, after written notice to the Disclosing Party (to the extent not
prohibited by law or rule), may disclose such Confidential Material only to the extent so required by applicable law. Each Party shall exercise reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded the
Confidential Material so disclosed. 
 SECTION 5.3. Force Majeure. Any delay, failure or omission by any Party in the performance of
any of its obligations under this Agreement shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement or result in any liability of such Party in respect of such breach, if such delay, failure or omission arises from any cause or causes beyond the reasonable
control of such Party, including, but not limited to, acts of God, fire, storm, flood, earthquake, governmental regulation or direction, war, terrorist acts, insurrection, riot, invasion, strike or lockout; provided, however, that
(a) the affected Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of such cause or causes and its anticipated duration, (b) the affected Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent, limit and remove the effects
of any such cause or causes and (c) the affected Party shall resume the performance whenever such causes are removed.
