          Instructions.  Title Company is also hereby designated as
          escrow holder (sometimes herein referred to as “Escrow
          Holder”).  Escrow Holder’s Escrow number, Escrow Officer for the
          transactions contemplated hereby and under the Related Purchase Agreements,
          address for notices and wiring information is set forth below Title Company’s
          acceptance of this Escrow.  Escrow Holder’s general conditions or
          provisions, which are attached hereto as Exhibit “B” are
          incorporated by reference herein; provided, however, that in the event
          of any
          inconsistency between Exhibit “B” and any of the
          provisions of this Agreement or any Related Purchase Agreement, the provisions
          of this Agreement or the Related Purchase Agreement, as applicable, shall
          control, respectively.  Buyer and each Seller shall each execute,
          deliver and be bound by such further escrow instructions or other instruments
          as
          may be reasonably requested by the other party or by Escrow Holder from
          time to
          time, so long as the same are consistent with this Agreement.  Escrow
          Holder shall not comply with the unilateral instructions of only one party
          without the consent of the other party hereto unless otherwise expressly
          required to do so in this Agreement or any Related Purchase
          Agreement.

          of Escrow.  Escrow shall be deemed open when not less
          than four (4) originals of this Agreement and each Related Agreement, fully

          and
          each Related Purchase Agreement by the Parties thereto.  Escrow Holder

        4.1     Purchase
          Price.  The purchase price for the Properties shall be
          Three Hundred Seventy-Seven Million Nine Hundred Seven Thousand Two Hundred
          Forty-Six Dollars and 00/100ths ($377,907,246.00) (the “Purchase
          Price”).  The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Properties
          as set forth on Exhibit “G” attached hereto and
          incorporated herein by this reference (with respect each Property, the
          “Allocated Purchase Price”).

         

        4.2     Earnest
          Money Deposit.  Concurrently
          with the execution hereof by Buyer, Buyer shall deposit with the Escrow
          Holder
          the sum of Five Million Dollars and 00/100ths ($5,000,000.00) (the “Earnest
          Money Deposit”).  Escrow Holder shall hold the Earnest Money Deposit
          in United States Treasury obligations or treasury-backed repurchase agreements,
          or such other investment as may be selected by Buyer and reasonably approved
          by
          Sellers on a funds investment form provided by Escrow Holder.  All
          interest or other amounts earned upon the Earnest Money Deposit shall become
          part of the Earnest Money Deposit and shall be applied with the Earnest Money
          Deposit in accordance with the terms and provisions of this
          Agreement.  If the Closing occurs pursuant to the provisions of this
          Agreement and each Related Purchase Agreement Closing occurs under each
          Related
          Purchase Agreement, the Earnest Money Deposit, plus all accrued interest
          or
          other amounts earned thereon, shall be applied against the Purchase Price
          hereunder and/or against the purchase price payable under each Related
          Purchase
          Agreement, as directed by Buyer.  If the Closing fails to occur under
          the provisions of this Agreement or any Related Purchase Agreement Closing
          fails
          to occur under any Related Purchase Agreement, the Earnest Money Deposit,
          plus
          all accrued interest or other amounts earned thereon, shall be either delivered
          to Buyer, or delivered to Sellers as non-refundable liquidated damages
          (and not
          as a penalty), as determined by the provisions of Sections 7
          below.  In the event that Sellers are entitled to retain the Earnest
          Money Deposit plus accrued interest or other amounts earned thereon pursuant
          to
          Section 7.2.1 below, the allocation of Earnest Money Deposit plus accrued
          or
          other amounts earned interest thereon among each Seller, shall be as determined
          by Sellers, and neither Buyer nor Escrow Holder shall be concerned
          therewith.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision
          hereof to the contrary, the sum of One Hundred Dollars and 00/100ths ($100.00)
          out of the Earnest Money Deposit is independent of any other consideration
          provided hereunder, shall be fully earned by Sellers upon the Effective
          Date
          hereof, and is not refundable to Buyer under any
          circumstances.  Accordingly, if this Agreement is terminated for any
          reason by either party, such independent consideration shall be paid by
          Escrow
          Holder to Sellers.

         

        4.3     Cash
          Security Deposit Credit.  Buyer and Sellers acknowledge
          and agree that, as of the Effective Date, the Emeritus Lessee and the Painted
          Post Lessee have together deposited with the applicable Lessor pursuant
          to
          Article XXI of the Emeritus Master Lease and Article XXI of the Painted
          Post
          Lease, a Cash Security Deposit in the approximate aggregate amount of
          $3,055,328.66.  In addition, as of the Effective Date, accrued and
          unpaid interest on such aggregate Cash Security Deposit is approximately
          $34,466.80.  Pursuant to the each Master Lease Termination, the
          applicable Lessor thereunder has agreed that the applicable Lessee shall
          cause
          such Lessor to apply all of the sum of the following to the Purchase Price
          payable hereunder:  (i) the entire aggregate Cash Security Deposit,
          plus (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest on such Cash Security Deposit
          as of
          the Closing Date. The forgoing shall be referred to herein as the “Cash Security
          Deposit Credit.”

          Funds
          into Escrow (using wiring instructions reasonably satisfactory to Escrow
          Holder)
          in an amount which, when added to the Cash Security Deposit Credit, shall
          equal
          the Purchase Price plus any other sums payable by Buyer hereunder (the
“Closing
          Funds”).

        5.2     Buyer’s
          Approval, Disapproval or Waiver of
          Conditions.  Prior to Closing Buyer
          shall notify Sellers and Escrow Holder in writing in the event that as

          date of Closing, any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.1 have not

          as a result of any act or omission of Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer,

          Buyer shall not be entitled to disapprove such condition, but rather the
          same
          shall, following any applicable notice and cure period pursuant to Section
          7.2

          disapprove or waive such condition, if applicable, within the time and
          in the
          manner herein specified, then such condition shall be deemed conclusively

          to the performance by Buyer of its respective obligations
          hereunder.

         

        5.3     “AS
          IS” SALE.  IT IS EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT
          BUYER IS ACQUIRING EACH OF THE PROPERTIES “AS IS,” IN ITS PRESENT STATE AND
          CONDITION, WITHOUT ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES FROM SELLERS, OR ANY
          OF
          THEM, OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY
          SET
          FORTH IN SECTION 8 BELOW AND THE ADDENDUM HERETO.  IN PARTICULAR,
          EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 8 BELOW AND THE ADDENDUM HERETO,
          SELLERS MAKE NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY RESPECTING THE USE, CONDITION,
          TITLE,
          OPERATION OR MANAGEMENT OF ANY OF THE PROPERTIES, OR COMPLIANCE WITH ANY
          APPLICABLE LAWS RELATING TO ZONING, SUBDIVISION, PLANNING, BUILDINGS, FIRE,

          knowledgeable in real estate matters and is relying upon Buyer’s own
          investigation and analysis in purchasing each of the Properties, as well
          as the
          fact that Buyer, Summerville or their respective Affiliates originally
          sold to
          and/or developed on behalf of each applicable Seller each of the Properties
          and
          at all times thereafter have leased and exclusively controlled the
          same.  Buyer further represents that it has had ample opportunity to
          inspect and has, in fact, made all of the investigations Buyer deems necessary
          in purchasing each of the Properties.  As a result, Buyer hereby
          expressly waives any notice requirements which may be imposed upon any
          Seller
          pursuant to § 25359.7 of the California Health & Safety Code or any other
          similar and applicable Laws.  If this Agreement is not terminated and
          Buyer acquires the Properties as provided herein, Buyer shall have thereby
          approved all aspects of each of the Properties and this transaction and
          thereby
          waives any claim or Liability against Sellers, and each of them.  In
          furtherance of the foregoing, at the Closing, Buyer shall and shall cause
          each
          Lessee to execute and deliver to Sellers the Release of Claims. The provisions
          of this Section 5.3 shall survive the Closing.

         

        5.4     Seller’s
          Conditions.  Provided that Sellers are not in breach or
          default of any provision of this Agreement, the obligation of each Seller
          to
          sell the Properties (and each of them) shall be subject to satisfaction
          of each
          of the conditions set forth in this Section 5.4.  Sellers and Buyer
          expressly acknowledge and agree that each of the conditions set forth in
          this
          Section 5.4 is for the benefit of and may be waived only by Sellers in
          writing.

        5.4.1     No
          Default Under Master Leases.  Prior to the Closing,
          (a) no Event of Default, or event which with notice and/or passage of time
          would constitute an Event of Default by the applicable Lessee under any
          Master
          Lease shall have occurred and be continuing and (b) all Rent and Charges
          shall be paid as and when due under each Master Lease, through but not
          including
          the Closing Date.

         

        5.4.2     Purchase
          of All Properties. The Closing hereunder
          shall occur simultaneously with respect to all of the Properties.

         

        5.4.3     Occurrence
          of Closing by the Outside Closing Date.  The Closing
          shall occur on or before the Outside Closing Date.

         

        5.4.4     Related
          Purchase Agreements.  The Related Purchase Agreement
          Closing under each Related Purchase Agreement shall occur simultaneous
          with the
          Closing.  In addition, no Related Purchase Agreement Buyer Default
          under any Related Purchase Agreement shall have occurred and be
          continuing.

         

        5.4.5     Buyer’s
          Representations and Warranties.  Buyer’s representations
          and warranties set forth in Section 8 below and in the Addendum attached
          hereto
          shall be true and correct in all material respects on the Closing Date
          as if
          made again on the Closing Date.

         

        5.4.6     Buyer’s
          Performance.  Buyer shall have performed all of its
          obligations under this Agreement and the Addendum hereto which by the terms
          of
          the Agreement are required to be performed by Buyer as of or prior to the
          Closing Date.

         

        5.5     Sellers’
          Approval, Disapproval or Waiver of Conditions.
          Prior to the Closing, Sellers shall notify Buyer and Escrow Holder in writing
          in
          the event that as of the date of Closing, any of the conditions set forth
          in
          Section 5.4 have not been satisfied or waived by Sellers; provided, however,
          that if any of the conditions set forth in Sections 5.4.2 , 5.4.3 or 5.4.4
          have
          not been satisfied as a result of any act or omission of Sellers or any
          Affiliate of Sellers, then Sellers shall not be entitled to disapprove
          such
          condition, but rather the same shall, following any applicable notice and
          cure
          period pursuant to Section 7.2 below, constitute a default by Sellers
          hereunder.  In the event that Sellers are not entitled to disapprove a
          condition or Sellers fail to approve, disapprove or waive such condition,
          if
          applicable, prior to the Closing, then such condition shall be deemed
          conclusively satisfied or waived by Sellers and thereafter shall not be
          a
          condition precedent to the performance by Sellers of their respective
          obligations hereunder.

        6.1     Closing
          Date.  Subject to extension in order to implement the
          provisions of Section 6.8, and unless this Agreement has been earlier terminated
          in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 7 below, Escrow
          shall
          close on the Outside Closing Date; provided, however, that subject to
          satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in Sections
          5.1 and
          5.4, Buyer shall be entitled to close Escrow prior to the Outside Closing
          Date
          upon not less than five (5) days’ notice to Sellers and Escrow Holder; provided
          further, however, that in no event shall the closing occur prior to July
          31,
          2007.  The terms “Close of Escrow” and/or “Closing” are used in this
          Agreement to mean the time and date the transactions contemplated hereby
          are
          closed and the Deed or other applicable conveyance instrument has been
          delivered
          to Buyer through Escrow, regardless whether the applicable Deed or other
          applicable conveyance instrument is actually recorded in the land records
          in
          which the applicable Property is situated.  The term “Closing Date” as
          used in this Agreement means the date that the Closing occurs.

        6.2     Deposits

          Angeles, California, on that date which is not less than one (1) business
          day
          before the Close of Escrow, Sellers shall deliver or cause to be delivered
          to
          Escrow Holder the following items for handling as described below; provided,
          however, that Escrow need not be concerned with the form or content but
          only
          with manual delivery of all of the following other than item 6.2.1:

         

        6.2.1     Deeds.  With
          respect to each Property, a duly executed and acknowledged grant deed,
          special
          warranty deed or equivalent thereof in the applicable State (each a “Deed”)
          conveying the real property comprising such Property in such State to Buyer,
          in
          each case subject to (collectively the “Permitted Exceptions”): (i) all
          Impositions, whether past due or delinquent, and (ii) all covenants, conditions,
          restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of record or which
          would be disclosed by an accurate survey or physical inspection of such
          Property; provided, however, that with respect to each Land Lease Facility,
          the
          term “Deed” shall mean an assignment and assumption of the applicable
          Pennsylvania Land Lease in form and substance reasonably acceptable to
          the
          applicable Seller and Buyer, in each case subject to the Permitted
          Exceptions;

         

        6.2.2     Bill
          of Sale.  A duly executed and acknowledged quit claim
          bill of sale conveying any right, title and interest of each applicable

          in and to any tangible personal property located on or within each Property
          to
          Buyer, without warranty except as expressly set forth therein, in the form
          of
          attached Exhibit “D” or such other form as reasonably
          acceptable to Sellers and Buyer (the “Bill of Sale”);

         

        6.2.3     Summerville
          Master Lease Amendment and Master Lease
          Terminations.  The Summerville Master Lease Amendment
          duly executed by the applicable Lessor thereunder and each Master Lease
          Termination duly executed by the applicable Lessor thereunder;

         

        6.2.4     Memorandum
          of Termination.  As required, each
          Memorandum of Termination duly executed and acknowledged by the applicable
          Lessor;

         

        6.2.5    
          Seller’s
          Certificate.  If any express
          representation or warranty of any Seller set forth in Section 8 hereof
          or by HCP
          in the Addendum hereto needs to be modified due to changes since the Effective
          Date, a certificate of such Seller, dated as of the Closing Date and executed
          on
          behalf of such Seller by a duly authorized representative thereof, identifying
          any such representation or warranty which is not, or no longer is, true
          and
          correct and explaining the state of facts giving rise to the
          change.  In no event shall any Seller have any Liability to Buyer for,
          or be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any breach of a
          representation or warranty set forth in Section 8 hereof or by HCP as set
          forth
          in the Addendum attached hereto which results from any change that (i)
          occurs
          between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, and (ii) is either expressly
          permitted under the terms of this Agreement or beyond the reasonable control
          of
          such Seller to prevent.  The occurrence of a change in a
          representation or warranty which is permitted hereunder or is beyond the
          reasonable control of any Seller to prevent shall, if materially adverse
          to
          Buyer, constitute the non-fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Section
          5.1.1 hereof.  If, despite changes or other matters described in such
          certificate, the Closing occurs, any applicable Seller’s representations and
          warranties set forth in this Agreement or the Addendum hereto shall be
          deemed to
          have been modified by all statements made in any certificate of such Seller
          delivered pursuant to this Section 6.2.4;

        6.2.6     Evidence

          reasonably required by Escrow Holder in order to cause any Title Policy
          requested by Buyer as provided in Section 6.4 below to be issued and the
          Close
          of Escrow to occur; provided, however, that in no event shall any Seller
          be
          required to execute and deliver a so-called owner’s or ALTA affidavit or
          indemnity or a mechanics’ lien indemnity with respect to any Property, except in
          form and substance acceptable to such Seller in its sole, but reasonable
          discretion, and in any event any such affidavit shall be limited to (a)
          the
          actual knowledge of such Seller (without investigation or the duty to
          investigate) and (b) the direct actions of Seller;

         

        6.2.7     Closing
          Statement.  A duly executed and acknowledged counterpart
          of a joint buyer/seller estimated closing statement to be prepared by Escrow

        6.2.8     Additional
          Items.  Any additional funds and/or instruments, signed
          and properly acknowledged by Sellers, if appropriate, as may be necessary

          by Buyer.  At or before 1:00 p.m., local time in Los
          Angeles, California, on the date of the Close of Escrow, Buyer shall deliver

          interest and other amounts earned thereon which Buyer instructs Escrow
          Holder to
          apply to the Purchase Price hereunder, and the Cash Security Deposit Credit
          shall equal the Purchase Price plus all Closing costs, charges or prorations

          Date, each New Emeritus Guaranty, duly executed by Emeritus; otherwise,
          the
          provisions of Section 10.3 shall apply.

         

        6.3.6     Buyer’s
          Certificate.  If any representation or
          warranty of Buyer set forth in Section 8 hereof or the Addendum hereto
          needs to
          be modified due to changes since the Effective Date, a certificate of Buyer
          addressed to Sellers, dated as of the Closing Date and executed on behalf
          of
          Buyer by a duly authorized representative thereof, identifying any such
          representation or warranty which is not, or no longer is, true and correct
          and
          explaining the state of facts giving rise to the change.  In no event
          shall Buyer have any Liability to Sellers for, or be deemed to be in default
          hereunder by reason of any breach of a representation or warranty set forth
          in
          Section 8 hereof or the Addendum hereto which results from any change that
          (i)
          occurs between the Effective Date and the Closing Date and (ii) is either
          expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement or is beyond the
          reasonable control of Buyer to prevent.  The occurrence of a change in
          a representation or warranty which is permitted hereunder or is beyond
          the
          reasonable control of Buyer to prevent shall, if materially adverse to
          Sellers,
          or any of them, constitute the non-fulfillment of the conditions set forth
          in
          Section 5.4.5 hereof.  If, despite changes or other matters described
          in such certificate, the Closing occurs, Buyer’s representations and warranties
          set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed to have been modified by all
          statements made in such certificate;

         

        6.3.7     Evidence
          of Authority.  Such certificates or documents as may be

        6.3.8     Closing
          Statement.  A duly executed and acknowledged counterpart
          of the Closing Statement; and

         

        6.3.9     Additional
          Items.  Any additional Funds and/or instruments, signed
          and properly acknowledged by Buyer, if appropriate, as may be necessary

        6.4     Title
          Policies.  At the Close of Escrow, but not as a condition
          thereto, Buyer shall be entitled to request and obtain from Title Company
          if so
          requested by Buyer, with a copy to be delivered to each applicable Seller,
          a
          policy of title insurance with respect to each Property, insuring good
          and
          indefeasible title to such Property vested in Buyer as of the Closing Date
          in
          the amount of the applicable Allocated Purchase Price, subject to such
          matters
          of record or apparent as Buyer and Title Company may agree (each, a “Title
          Policy”) and including such endorsements thereto as Buyer may request and Title
          Company agrees to issue (the “Title Endorsements”).  The cost of each
          Title Policy and all Title Endorsements thereto shall be borne by the parties
          as
          provided in Section 6.6 below.

        6.5     Prorations.

         

        6.5.1     Impositions
          and Other Expenses.  Buyer and Sellers acknowledge and
          agree that the each Master Lease is absolutely net to the applicable Lessor,
          and
          that each applicable Lessee is solely responsible for any and all Impositions,
          Land Lease Rent, insurance premiums, utility charges and other expenses
          incurred
          in connection with the operation, maintenance and use of the respective
          Property.  Accordingly, Buyer and/or the applicable Lessee shall be
          solely responsible for all such amounts whether accruing prior to or after
          the
          Closing and there shall be no prorations on account thereof between Buyer
          and
          Sellers hereunder.  Any adjustments or prorations of such amounts
          between Buyer and any Lessee shall be solely between such parties and neither
          Sellers nor Escrow Holder shall be concerned therewith.

         

        6.5.2     Rents.  Notwithstanding
          anything to the contrary herein, all Rents and Charges shall belong to
          and be
          paid over to the applicable Lessor by the applicable Lessee on the Closing
          Date.
          Minimum Rent shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days in
          the month
          in which the Closing occurs.  For purposes of prorating any Additional
          Rent payable under any Master Lease with respect to any applicable Property,
          the
          following shall apply:

         

        (a)           To
          the extent Additional Rent payable for the then-current Lease Year for
          any
          Property is calculated and determined on the basis of a percentage of Gross
          Revenues in excess of the applicable Base Gross Revenues, such Additional
          Rent
          with respect to such Property shall be equal to the applicable percentage
          of
          Gross Revenues for such Property for such Lease Year in excess of the applicable
          Closing Breakpoint.  For purposes of the foregoing, the “Closing
          Breakpoint” shall mean the applicable Base Gross Revenues multiplied by a
          fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the current Lease
          Year
          for such applicable Property through, but not including the Closing Date,
          and
          that the denominator of which is three hundred sixty-five (365).

         

        (b)           To
          the extent Additional Rent payable for the then-current Lease Year for
          any
          Property is calculated and determined on the basis of an increase in the
          Cost of
          Living Index, such Additional Rent shall be determined and paid in accordance
          with the applicable provisions of the applicable Master Lease for the number
          of
          days in such Lease Year through, but not including, the Closing
          Date.

         

        (c)           In
          the event that the amount of Additional Rent payable under such Lease Year
          is
          subject to either a floor or a ceiling, the amount of such floor or ceiling,
          as
          the case may be, shall also be prorated based upon a three hundred sixty-five
          (365) day year.

         

        (d)           Buyer
          and Sellers shall cooperate to estimate the proration amount for Additional
          Rent
          as of the Closing in good faith, and shall submit such amount to Escrow
          Holder
          at least one (1) business day prior to the Close of Escrow.  In
          determining such proration amount, Buyer shall be credited with any payments
          on
          account of Additional Rent previously paid to the applicable Lessor for
          the
          applicable current Lease Year.  Within thirty (30) days after the
          Closing Date, Buyer shall cause the applicable Lessee to make a final
          calculation of Additional Rent up to the Closing for each applicable Property,
          and deliver to Sellers an Officer’s Certificate (as defined in the applicable
          Master Lease) setting forth the calculation thereof.  Buyer shall
          promptly pay or cause the applicable Lessee to pay to Sellers, or if directed
          by
          Sellers, to the applicable Lessor, any deficiency in the payment of Additional
          Rent for each applicable Property, and Sellers shall promptly pay to Buyer
          or,
          if directed by Buyer, to the applicable Lessee, the amount of any overpayment
          of
          Additional Rent for any applicable Property.

         

        
          
            
            

          

          
            17

            
              

            

          

          
            
            

          

        


        (e)           The
          obligation to prorate and pay Additional Rent for each applicable Property
          shall
          survive the Closing.

         

        (f)           Notwithstanding
          anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Related Property Purchase
          Agreement, to the extent the “Leased Property” (as defined in the applicable
          Master Lease) of any “Facility” (as defined in the applicable Master Lease) is
          being sold by an applicable Seller or its Affiliates pursuant to a Related
          Purchase Agreement, all Rent and Charges shall nevertheless be paid over
          to the
          applicable Lessor pursuant to this Agreement by the applicable Lessee on
          the
          Closing Date and all Minimum Rent and Additional Rent shall be prorated
          under
          this Agreement, as if such “Leased Property” of such Facility is being conveyed
          hereunder, as provided herein and not under any Related Purchase Agreement,
          but
          such proration shall nevertheless be reflected on the Closing Settlement
          Statements being executed and delivered in connection with each Related
          Purchase
          Agreement Closing.

          and Transaction Costs.

         

        6.6.1     Sellers
          and Buyer shall execute such returns, questionnaires and other documents
          as

          by
          applicable federal, state or local Law.

         

        6.6.2     Upon
          the Closing, Buyer shall be responsible for:

         

        (a)           any
          Transaction Taxes in excess of the portion thereof that is the responsibility
          of
          Sellers as provided in Section 6.6.3 below;

         

        (b)           all

          the costs
          of any survey required by Buyer and/or the Title Company), any Title
          Endorsements and chain of title reports, and all fees and charges of Escrow
          Holder hereunder in excess of the applicable portion thereof that is the
          responsibility of Sellers as provided in Section 6.6.3 below;

         

        (c)           the
          charges for or in connection with the recording and/or filing of any instrument
          or document provided herein or contemplated by this Agreement, the Related
          Purchase Agreements or any agreement or document described or referred
          to herein
          or therein;

         

        (d)           all
          reports or studies obtained by or at the direction of Buyer, including
          all
          appraisal, environmental, engineering or other third party reports and

        (e)           Buyer’s
          legal, accounting and other professional fees and expenses incurred in
          connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Related Purchase
          Agreements and the Exhibits hereto and thereto; and

        (f)           all
          other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions
          contemplated hereunder, under the Related Purchase Agreements and the Exhibits
          hereto and thereto that are not the responsibility of Sellers as provided
          in
          Section 6.6.3 below.

         

        6.6.3     Upon
          the Closing, Sellers shall be responsible for:

         

        (a)           Twenty-Seven
          Percent (27%) of the sum of (i) any Transaction Taxes, and (ii) the cost
          of the
          Title Policies and Title Endorsements; provided, however, that neither
          Sellers
          nor their Affiliates shall be responsible for (i) any Transaction Taxes
          or (ii)
          the cost of any Title Policies and Title Endorsements, in either case,
          pursuant
          to this Agreement or the Related Purchase Agreements in excess of One Million

        (b)           Sellers’
          legal, accounting and other professional fees and expenses incurred in
          connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the Exhibits

        6.6.4     Any
          personal property conveyed to Buyer as part of any Property is included
          in this
          sale as part of the Allocated Purchase Price for such Property and without
          additional charge therefore.

         

        6.6.5     If
          the Closing does not occur for any reason other than Sellers’ default hereunder,
          Buyer shall pay all title and Escrow cancellation charges and
          expenses.  If the Closing does not occur by reason of Sellers’ default
          hereunder, then in such event Sellers shall be responsible for any title
          and
          Escrow cancellation charges and expenses.  The provisions of this
          Section 6.6.5 shall survive any early termination of this Agreement prior
          to
          Closing.

         

        6.7     Completion
          and Distribution of Documents.  Escrow Holder shall also
          undertake the following at or promptly after the Close of Escrow:

         

        6.7.1     If
          necessary, Escrow Holder is authorized and instructed to insert the Closing
          Date
          as the date of any documents conveying or terminating interests herein
          or to
          become operative as of the Closing Date.

         

        6.7.2     Cause
          each Deed, any Memorandum of Termination, and any other recordable instrument
          which the parties so direct to be recorded in the appropriate land records
          office where the respective Property is located, and if necessary, the
          parties
          will re-execute post-Closing any Memorandum of Termination to allow it
          to be
          recorded, such obligation to survive the Closing hereunder.  If
          permitted by applicable law, Escrow Holder is hereby instructed not to
          affix the
          amount of any Transaction Tax on the face of any Deed but to pay on the
          basis of
          a separate affidavit signed by either the applicable Seller or Buyer, as
          applicable, and not made a part of the public record; and

         

        6.7.3     Cause
          each non-recorded document to be delivered to the party acquiring rights
          thereunder, or for whose benefit such document was obtained.

         

        6.8     Seller’s
          Election of 1031 Exchange.  Sellers, or any of them, may

          tax-deferred exchange pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue
          Code of
          1986, as amended (“1031 Exchange”); provided, however, such 1031 Exchange shall
          not be a condition to any Seller’s obligation to close the transactions
          contemplated by this Agreement; provided further, however, that Sellers
          shall be
          entitled, in their sole discretion, to extend the Closing Date (including
          the
          Outside Closing Date) for up to ten (10) days by written notice delivered
          to
          Buyer and Escrow Holder no less than three (3) days prior to the
          scheduled Closing Date in order to accommodate such a 1031
          Exchange.  In the event that Sellers, or any of them, shall so elect a
          1031 Exchange, Sellers shall give written notice to Buyer and Escrow Holder
          of
          such election.  Buyer shall fully cooperate with any such 1031
          Exchange, including with respect to the following as may be requested or
          approved by Sellers, or any of them:

        6.8.1     executing
          and delivering amendments to this Agreement and/or amendments and restatements
          of this Agreement so that the transactions contemplated hereby are incorporated
          into one or more cross-contingent agreements;

         

        6.8.2     executing
          and delivering one or more assignments of this Agreement or any of any
          of
          agreements described in Section 6.8.1 above from Buyer to an Affiliate
          of Buyer
          or by any Seller to any Affiliate of Seller or to a qualified exchange
          accommodator of Seller or such Affiliate; and

         

        6.8.3     such
          other additional documents;

         

        provided,
          however, that Buyer shall not be required to incur any additional Liabilities
          or
          financial obligations as a consequence of any of the foregoing exchange
          transactions.  Sellers hereby indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from
          any Liabilities to which Buyer may be exposed due to any participation
          by Buyer
          in such a 1031 Exchange transaction.  The provisions of this Section
          6.8 shall survive the Closing.

        7.1     Early
          Termination for Failure of
          Conditions.

         

        7.1.1     Termination
          by Buyer. If Buyer is entitled to and in fact disapproves any of
          the conditions set forth in Sections 5.1.1 through 5.1.5, inclusive, then
          Escrow
          and this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon receipt by Sellers
          and
          Escrow Holder of Buyer’s written notice of disapproval of such condition within
          the time and in the manner provided in Section 5.2; provided, however,
          that if
          there is a failure of (a) any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.1.1
          or
          5.1.2 or (b) any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.1.3, 5.1.4 or
          5.1.5
          that results from a breach or default by Sellers or any Affiliate of Seller
          of
          their respective obligations under this Agreement or under any Related
          Purchase
          Agreement, then in any such event in lieu of terminating this Agreement
          and
          Escrow pursuant to this Section 7.1, Buyer shall be entitled to exercise
          its
          rights pursuant to Section 7.2 below.  In addition, without limiting
          the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that the occurrence of
          any
          event of the type described in the second sentence of Section 5.1.5 above
          that
          results in the failure of the conditions set forth therein shall also constitute
          and be deemed a default by Seller under this Agreement entitling Buyer
          to
          exercise its remedies pursuant to Section 7.2 below.

         

        
          
            
            

          

          
            20

            
              

            

          

          
            
            

          

        


        7.1.2     Termination
          by Sellers.  If Sellers disapprove any of the conditions
          set forth in Section 5.4 above, then Escrow and this Agreement shall
          automatically terminate upon receipt by Buyer and Escrow Holder of Sellers’
written notice of disapproval thereof at any time prior to the Closing;
          provided, however, that if there is a failure of (a) any of the conditions
          set
          forth in Sections 5.4.5 or 5.4.6 or (b) any of the conditions set forth
          in
          Sections 5.4.2, 5.4.3, or 5.4.4 that results from a breach or a default
          by Buyer
          or any Affiliate of Buyer of its respective obligations under this Agreement
          or
          under any Related Purchase Agreement, then in any such event in lieu of
          terminating this Agreement and Escrow pursuant to this Section 7.1.2, Sellers
          shall be entitled to exercise their remedies pursuant to Section 7.2
          below.  In addition, without limiting the foregoing, the parties
          acknowledge and agree that the occurrence of any event of the type described
          in
          Section 5.4.1(a) or in the second sentence of Section 5.4.4 above that
          results
          in the failure of the conditions set forth therein shall also constitute
          and be
          deemed a default by Buyer under this Agreement entitling Sellers to exercise
          their remedies pursuant to Section 7.2 below.

         

        7.1.3     Rights
          and Obligations Upon Termination for Failure of
          Conditions.  If Escrow and this Agreement are terminated
          in the manner and within the applicable time period(s) provided pursuant
          to
          either Section 7.1.1 or Section 7.1.2 above, (a) all instruments in Escrow
          shall
          be returned to the party depositing the same, (b) Buyer shall return all
          items
          previously delivered by Sellers to Buyer, (c) the provisions of Section
          6.6.5
          above shall apply, (d) subject to Section 7.2 below, the Earnest Money
          Deposit,
          and all interest and other amounts earned thereon, shall be promptly delivered
          to Buyer and (e) neither party shall have any further rights, obligations
          or
          Liabilities whatsoever to the other party concerning the purchase and sale
          of
          the Property pursuant to this Agreement, except for those Liabilities which
          are
          expressly stated in this Agreement to survive termination.

         

        7.2     
          Termination by Reason of
          Default.  If the Closing fails to occur when and as
          provided in Section 6 above by reason of a breach or default (or deemed
          default
          as provided in the last sentence of either of Section 7.1.1 or Section
          7.1.2
          above) of either party of any of its duties, obligations, representations
          or
          warranties under this Agreement, then the non-defaulting party may elect,
          by
          written notice to the defaulting party and to Escrow Holder, to terminate
          Escrow
          and this Agreement, and the Earnest Money Deposit, and all interest thereon,
          shall be delivered to the non-defaulting party promptly after the Effective
          Termination Date.  Such termination shall be effective five (5) days
          after delivery of such notice (the “Effective Termination Date”);
provided, that (i) the non-defaulting party has performed or is in a
          position to perform all obligations on its part to be performed as of the
          Effective Termination Date other than those obligations which the non-defaulting
          party is prevented from having performed by reason of the defaulting party’s
          breach or default; and (ii) the defaulting party has not cured the default
          and the non-defaulting party has not waived such default by the Effective
          Termination Date.  Except as otherwise provided below in this Section
          7.2 and Section 6.6.5 above, Escrow Holder and the parties shall, upon
          such
          termination, return all of the other party’s funds and documents then held by
          them to the party depositing or delivering the same.  Thereafter, each
          of the parties shall be discharged and released from all obligations and
          Liabilities except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.2 and Section
          6.6.5
          above and except for those obligations and Liabilities which are expressly
          intended to survive the termination of this Agreement, including those
          Liabilities set forth in Section 12.2 below.

        7.2.1     Seller’s
          Damages.  If the Closing fails to occur by reason of a
          breach or default of this Agreement by Buyer, then Sellers may terminate
          this
          Agreement as of the Effective Termination Date as provided in Section 7.2
          above,
          in which case Buyer shall be Liable for the cancellation and other charges
          and
          expenses as provided for in Section 6.6.5  and the Earnest Money
          Deposit (plus all accrued interest and any other amounts earned thereon)
          shall
          be delivered to Sellers as liquidated damages and not as a
          penalty.  BUYER RECOGNIZES THAT IF THE CLOSING FAILS TO OCCUR BY
          REASON OF A BREACH OR DEFAULT OF THIS AGREEMENT BY BUYER, SELLERS SHOULD
          BE
          ENTITLED TO COMPENSATION FOR THE DETRIMENT CAUSED THEREBY.  HOWEVER,
          BOTH PARTIES AGREE THAT IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND IMPRACTICAL TO ASCERTAIN
          THE EXTENT OF THE DETRIMENT AND TO AVOID SUCH DIFFICULTIES, THE PARTIES
          AGREE
          THAT, IF BUYER FAILS TO PURCHASE THE PROPERTIES AND SUCH FAILURE CONSTITUTES
          A
          BREACH OF BUYER’S OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, SELLERS SHALL BE ENTITLED TO THE
          EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT AND ANY ACCRUED INTEREST AND ANY OTHER AMOUNTS EARNED
          THEREON AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.  NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE
          CONTRARY, AND EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 12.2 BELOW, THE PARTIES AGREE
          THAT
          SUCH AMOUNT STATED AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SHALL BE IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER
          RELIEF TO
          WHICH SELLERS MIGHT OTHERWISE BE ENTITLED BY VIRTUE OF BUYER’S FAILURE TO
          PURCHASE THE PROPERTIES IN THE EVENT SUCH FAILURE CONSTITUTES A BREACH
          OF
          BUYER’S OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

        7.2.2     Buyer’s
          Remedies. If the Closing fails to occur by reason
          of a breach or default of this Agreement by Sellers, then Buyer may either
          (a)
          terminate this Agreement as of the Effective Termination Date as provided
          in
          Section 7.2 above, in which case the Earnest Money Deposit, plus all accrued
          interest and any other amounts earned thereon, shall be promptly delivered
          to
          Buyer, and Sellers shall be liable for the cancellation and other charges
          and
          expenses provided for in Section 6.6.5, or (b) enforce specific performance
          of
          the obligations of Seller here­under; provided, however, that any action by
          Buyer to seek such specific performance must be commenced within thirty
          (30)
          calendar days of the occurrence of the alleged default by Sellers; provided
          further, however, that, except as provided in Section 6.6.5, in no event
          whatsoever shall Sellers ever have any Liability (whether in law or equity)
          for
          damages as a result of a default by Sellers under this Agreement.

         

        7.3     Relationship
          to Master Leases.  Notwithstanding
          anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no termination of this Agreement
          and
          Escrow by Sellers or Buyer regardless of the reason therefor shall affect
          the
          rights or obligations of any applicable Lessor or Lessee under any applicable
          Master Lease, each which Master Lease shall remain in full force and effect
          (and
          unmodified by the applicable Summerville Master Lease Amendment or any
          Master
          Lease Termination, as applicable), following any such termination of this
          Agreement prior to the Closing.

          in
          any material respect or (B) any covenant, condition or agreement of such

          shall be subject to the review and approval by the other party, which approval

          past, present and future officers, directors, employees, agents,
          representatives, attorneys and all Persons acting by, through, under or
          in
          concert with any of the foregoing, from and against all Liabilities, based
          upon,
          relating or arising out of the Properties, or any of them, whether accruing
          before or after the Closing Date, including any Liabilities relating to
          the
          presence or existence of Hazardous Substances of any kind, on, under or
          about
          the Properties, or any of them, or on adjoining or neighboring property,
          or
          arising from any use of the Properties, or any of them; provided, however,
          the
          foregoing indemnity shall not extend to any Liabilities which are solely
          and
          proximately caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Sellers,
          or
          any of them.  Payment shall not be a condition precedent to
          enforcement of the foregoing indemnification.  The provisions of this
          Section 10.2 shall specifically survive the execution and delivery of this
          Agreement and the occurrence of the Closing.

         

        10.3    New
          Emeritus Guaranty(ies).  In the event that the
          Emeritus/Summerville Merger Closing does not occur prior to the Closing,
          then
          promptly upon the Emeritus/Summerville Merger Closing Emeritus covenants
          and to
          execute and deliver promptly any New Emeritus Guaranty(ies) as required
          by HCP
          or any of its Affiliates with respect to any Summerville
          Obligations.  Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent the
          closing of any transactions that give rise to or otherwise create any new
          Summerville Obligations has not occurred as of the Closing hereunder, Emeritus
          hereby covenants and agrees to execute and deliver promptly any New Emeritus
          Guaranty(ies) as required by HCP or any of its Affiliates upon the later
          of (i)
          the closing of any such transactions and (ii) the Emeritus/Summerville
          Merger
          Closing.  The provisions of this Section 10.2 shall survive the
          execution and delivery of this Agreement and the occurrence of the Closing
          and
          shall be specifically enforceable by HCP and its Affiliates.

          have the right to assign this Agreement or any interest or right under
          this
          Agreement or under the Escrow or to appoint a nominee to act as Buyer under
          this
          Agreement without obtaining the prior written consent of Sellers, which
          consent
          may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of Seller;
          provided, however, that without in any way relieving Buyer of any of its
          duties,

          Baty, an individual, or (b) appoint one or more Affiliates of Buyer or
          Dan Baty

          Affiliate-assignee or nominee shall join in the execution and delivery
          of the
          Release of Claims at Closing with Buyer.  Any attempted assignment in
          violation of this provision shall be null and void.

          covenants, conditions or agreements to be performed by the other parties
          shall
          be in writing to be effective and no such written waiver shall be construed

          hereunder by the Closing, notwithstanding anything herein to the
          contrary.  Thereupon, all representations or warranties, covenants or

          to the contrary in this Agreement, for purposes of Properties located in
          Louisiana (collectively, the “Louisiana Properties”), the Escrow Money Deposit

        (b)           Louisiana

“with all faults,” and specifically and expressly without any warranties,
          representations, or guaranties, either express or implied, of any kind,
          nature,
          or type whatsoever, from or on behalf of the Sellers or any of them, with
          the
          exception of the warranties set out in Section 8 of this Agreement and
          the
          warranty of title as to the Sellers’ own acts (excluding the title matters
          accepted by Buyer in this Agreement).  The Deed with respect to the
          Louisiana Properties will be an Act of Cash Sale in form customary for
          real
          property transfers in Louisiana and will contain the following waiver by
          Buyer
          of all warranties of condition and title and the Sellers’ warranty of title as
          to Sellers’ own acts:

         

        Buyer
          has
          inspected the title to and condition of the Property and is aware of and
          satisfied with its current title and condition.  This sale, transfer
          and conveyance is made “as is-where is,” without any warranty, guaranty, or
          representations by Seller as to the title to or condition of the Property
          and
          warranty of merchantability of title as to Seller’s own acts, excluding [the
          Permitted Exceptions].  Seller hereby expressly disclaims and Buyer
          hereby expressly waives any and all warranties whatsoever, either oral
          or
          written, expressed or implied, made by Seller or any other person or entity
          or
          implied by law with respect to the Property and the warranty of merchantability
          of title as to Seller’s own acts, excluding [the Permitted Exceptions], with the
          warranties waived herein including, without limitation, any and all warranties
          of title or peaceful possession (other than warranty of merchantability
          of title
          as to Seller’s own acts, , excluding [the Permitted Exceptions]) or use,
          condition, title, operation or management of the Property or compliance
          with any
          applicable governmental laws, codes, ordinances, regulations, judgments,
          permits, approvals or other requirements relating to zoning, subdivision,
          planning, buildings, fire, safety, earthquake, health or compliance with
          any
          other covenants, conditions, or restrictions (whether or not of record),
          any and
          all other warranties as to the condition of the Property or any of its
          components or parts or contents or any improvements, fixtures, or equipment
          forming a part thereof, any and all warranties with respect to the fitness
          or
          suitability of the Property for Buyer's business or any other particular
          or
          general use or purpose, any and all warranties with respect to the presence
          or
          suspected presence of any rodent or insect infestations, including subterranean
          or other termites or wood boring organisms, or the presence or suspected
          presence of mold, mildew, or fungal or other biological or microbial growths,
          and any and all warranties with respect to the condition of the Property
          under
          La. Civ. Code art. 2475, and any and all warranties whatsoever under La.
          Civ.
          Code arts. 2477 through 2548 or any other provision of law.  Buyer
          expressly acknowledges the foregoing and waives any and all right or cause
          of
          action that Buyer has or may have to rescind or resolve this transfer or
          to
          demand a reduction in purchase price based upon the existence of any redhibitory
          or other vices, defects, or other deficiencies in the Property or any
          improvements, fixtures, or equipment forming a part thereof, based upon
          the
          unsuitability of the Property or any of its components or parts for Buyer's
          intended use or any other use, based upon any eviction of Buyer, in whole
          or in
          part, or based upon any other claimed breach of warranty or other matter
          whatsoever, this transfer being otherwise entirely at Buyer's sole peril
          and
          risk, provided, however, that Seller will remain liable for its warranty
          of
          title as to Seller’s own acts (excluding [the Permitted
          Exceptions]).  Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing
          disclaimers and waiver of warranties have been fully explained to Buyer
          and that
          Buyer understands the same.  Buyer and Seller jointly acknowledge and
          agree that the foregoing waivers and disclaimers are of the essence of
          this
          transaction and the same would not otherwise have been entered into or
          consummated without them.

        Without

          and
          releases Seller from, any claims, demands, causes or rights of action,
          in
          reimbursement, contribution or otherwise, that Buyer has or may have against
