         Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor acknowledges and agrees that the
Rent for the First Extended Term and the Second Extended Term may not be known
by Lessor at the time that Lessee is required to exercise its respective renewal
options.  Accordingly, in the event Lessor has not advised Lessee of the First
Extended Term Rent at least thirteen (13) months prior to the date of the
expiration of the Initial Term or the Second Extended Term Rent at least
thirteen (13) months prior to the expiration of the First Extended Term, Lessee
shall have the right to exercise the renewal right provided for herein subject
to the right to rescind the same on written notice to Lessor delivered within
thirty (30) days after Lessor advises Lessee in writing as to the First Extended
Term Rent or the Second Extended Term Rent, as the case may be (the "Rent
Notice"), which Rent Notice shall be delivered by Lessor to Lessee as soon as
practicable after the debt service for the First Extended Term or the Second
Extended Term, as the case may be, has been determined but in no event less than
one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the commencement of the First
Extended Term or the Second Extended Term, as the case may be.

         The Initial Term, as it may be extended by the First Extended Term and
the Second Extended Term, is hereinafter collectively known as the "Term".
    
         As used in this Article 3, the term default shall mean an "Event of
Default" as defined in Article 19 of this Lease.
 
 
                                  ARTICLE IV - RENT


    4.1  Throughout the Term of this Lease, Lessee shall pay to Lessor, or
as Lessor shall direct, as fixed annual rental ("Rent") for the Demised Premises
and the Personal Property over and above all other and additional payments to be
made by Lessee as provided in this Lease the following amounts:

              (i)    For the first Lease Year, an annual Rent of $178,500.00, 
payable in equal monthly installments of $14,875.00;

              (ii)   For the second Lease Year and each subsequent Lease Year 
(of the Initial Term or any Extended Lease Term) an amount equal to the prior 
Lease Year's Rent multiplied by 1.5 times the increase, if any, in the Cost 
of Living Index (as hereinafter defined) in effect on September 1st of the 
current Lease Year over the Cost of Living Index in effect on September 1st 
of the preceding Lease Year; provided, however, that in no event will the 
increase in Rent from one Lease Year to the next be greater than two and 
one-half percent (2.5%) of the sum of the prior Lease Year's Rent nor shall 
such Rent decrease from the prior Lease Year; and

                                       5
<PAGE>

              (iii)  The Cost of Living Index is defined as the Consumer 
Price Index for All Urban Consumers, U.S. City Average (1982-1984 = 100), 
published by the BLS, or such other renamed index.  If the BLS changes the 
publication frequency of the Cost of Living Index so that a Cost of Living 
Index is not available to make a cost-of-living adjustment as specified 
herein, the cost-of-living adjustment shall be based on the percentage 
difference between the Cost of Living Index for the closest preceding month 
for which a Cost of Living Index is available and Cost of Living Index for 
the comparison month is required by this Lease.  If the BLS changes the base 
reference period for the Cost of Living Index from 1982-84 = 100, the 
cost-of-living adjustment shall be determined with the use of such conversion 
formula or table as may be published by the BLS.  If the BLS otherwise 
substantially revises, or ceases publication of the Cost of Living Index, 
then a substitute index for determining cost-of-living adjustments, issued by 
the BLS or by a reliable governmental or other nonpartisan publication, shall 
be reasonably selected by Lessor and Lessee.

         In the event the Commencement Date shall be other than the first day
of the month, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a pro rata portion of the Rent for the
month and a pro rata portion of all tax, insurance and other deposits provided
for in this Lease.  All fixed annual rental payments shall be made in equal
monthly installments and shall be paid in advance on the first (1st) day of each
month (together with all tax and insurance deposits required in this Lease). 
Unless otherwise notified in writing, all checks shall be made payable to Lessor
and shall be sent c/o Idaho Associates, L.L.C., Two North LaSalle Street, Suite
1901, Chicago, Illinois 60602.    

         The Rent set forth in this Article 4 is based, in part, upon the debt
service of the permanent first mortgage financing on the Demised Premises
("Initial Financing").  In the event that the debt service payable on Lessor's
mortgage financing in effect on the date that the First Extended Term commences
is more or less that the debt service on the Initial Financing, the Rent due
during the First  Extended Term shall be adjusted according to the following
formula:  The annual Rent due during the first year of the First Extended Term
shall be increased or decreased in an amount equal to the difference between (i)
the annual debt service on the indebtedness secured by the first mortgage
encumbering the Demised Premises in effect on the first day of the First
Extended Term, and (ii) the annual debt service on the indebtedness secured by
the first mortgage encumbering the Demised Premises in effect on the day of the
Initial Financing; provided, however, that the amount of principal to be used in
making the calculations shall not exceed the original principal amount of the
loan encumbering the Demised Premises concurrent with Lessor's acquisition of
the Demised Premises.  The subsequent annual increases as provided in Article
4.1 above for the remainder of the First Extended Term shall be calculated on
the Annual Rent payable during the first year of the First Extended Term as so
adjusted.

         In the event that the debt service payable on Lessor's mortgage
financing in effect on the date that the Second Extended Term commences is more
or less than the

                                       6
<PAGE>

debt service on Lessor's mortgage financing in effect on the date the First 
Extended Term commences, the Rent due during the Second Extended Term shall 
be adjusted according to the following formula:  the annual Rent due during 
the first year of the Second Extended Term shall be increased or decreased in 
an amount equal to the difference between (i) the annual debt service on the 
indebtedness secured by the first mortgage encumbering the Demised Premises 
in effect on the first day of the Second Extended Term, and (ii) the annual 
debt service on the indebtedness secured by the first mortgage encumbering 
the Demised Premises on the date that the First Extended Term commences; 
provided, however, that the amount of principal to be used in making the 
calculation shall not exceed the original principal amount of the loan 
encumbering the Demised Premises concurrent with Lessor's acquisition of the 
Demised Premises.  The subsequent annual increases as provided in Article 4.1 
above for the remainder of the Second Extended Term shall be calculated on 
the annual rent payable during the first year of the Second Extended Term as 
so adjusted.  

    4.2  This Lease is and shall be deemed and construed to be a "pure net" or
"triple-net" lease and the Rent specified herein shall be net to the Lessor in
each year during the Term of this Lease.  The Lessee shall pay all costs,
expenses and obligations of every kind whatsoever relating to the Demised
Premises which may arise or become due during the Term of this Lease, except for
any principal and interest payments and other costs owed by Lessor relating to
any Mortgage (defined below) and Landlord's general overhead and administrative
expenses  (collectively, "Additional Rent").  Lessee does hereby indemnify the
Lessor against any and all such costs, expenses and obligations.


                               ARTICLE V - LATE CHARGES


    5.1  If payment of any sums required to be paid or deposited by Lessee to 
Lessor under this Lease, and payments made by Lessor under any provision 
hereof for which Lessor is entitled to reimbursement by Lessee, shall become 
overdue for a period of ten (10) days beyond the date on which they are due 
and payable as in this Lease provided, a late charge of 3% per month on the 
sums so overdue shall become immediately due and payable to Lessor as 
liquidated damages for Lessee's failure to make prompt payment and said late 
charges shall be payable on the first day of the month next succeeding the 
month during which such late charges become payable.  If non-payment of any 
late charges shall occur, Lessor shall have, in addition to all other rights 
and remedies, all the rights and remedies provided for herein and by law in 
the case of non-payment of Rent.  No failure by Lessor to insist upon the 
strict performance by Lessee of Lessee's obligations to pay late charges 
shall constitute a waiver by Lessor of its rights to enforce the provisions 
of this Article in any instance thereafter occurring.

                     ARTICLE VI- PAYMENT OF TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS


    6.1       Lessee will pay or cause to be paid, as provided herein, as
additional Rent, before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto
for the non-payment thereof, all taxes, assessments, licenses and permit fees,
charges for public utilities, and all governmental charges, general and special,
ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, of any kind and nature
whatsoever which during the Term of this Lease may have been, or may be
assessed, levied, confirmed, imposed upon or become due and payable out of or in
respect of, or become a lien on the Demised Premises and/or Personal Property or
any part thereof (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Taxes and
Assessments").

    6.2  Any Taxes and Assessments relating to a fiscal period of any
authority, a part of which is included within the Term of this Lease and a part
of which is included in a period of time before or after the Term of this Lease,
shall be adjusted pro rata between Lessor and Lessee and each party shall be
responsible for its pro rata share of any such Taxes and Assessments.

    6.3  Nothing herein contained shall require Lessee to pay income taxes
assessed against Lessor, or capital levy, franchise, business license, estate,
succession or inheritance taxes of Lessor.

    6.4       Lessee shall have the right to contest the amount or validity, in
whole or in part, of any Taxes and Assessments by appropriate proceedings
diligently conducted in good faith, but only after payment of such Taxes and
Assessments, unless such payment would operate as a bar to such contest or
interfere materially with the prosecution thereof, in which event, Lessee may
postpone or defer such payment only if:

              (1)  Neither the Demised Premises nor any part thereof would by
reason of such postponement or deferment be in danger of being forfeited or
lost; and

              (2)  Lessee shall have deposited with Lessor, to be held in
trust, cash or other security satisfactory to Lessor in an amount equal to not
less than the amount of such Taxes and Assessments which at such time shall be
actually due and payable, and such additional amounts reasonably required by
Lessor and any Mortgagee (as hereinbelow defined) of Lessor from time to time,
together with all interest and penalties in connection therewith and all charges
that may or might be assessed against or become a charge on the Demised Premises
or any part thereof in such proceedings, or, if required by the taxing
authority, an amount deposited in trust with the taxing authority during the
pendency of any contest in lieu of any additional charge against the Demised
Premises until resolution of the contest.

                                       8
<PAGE>

         Unless Lessor agrees otherwise, the cash so deposited with Lessor
shall not bear interest and the cash or securities so deposited shall be held by
Lessor until the Demised Premises or any part thereof shall have been released
and discharged and shall thereupon be returned to the Lessee, less the amount of
any loss, cost, damage and reasonable expense that Lessor or any Mortgagee has
sustained in connection with the Taxes and Assessments so contested.

    6.5  Upon the termination of any such proceedings, Lessee shall pay the 
amount of such Taxes and Assessments or part thereof as finally determined in 
such proceedings, the payment of which may have been deferred during the 
prosecution of such proceedings, together with any costs, fees, interest, 
penalties or other liabilities in connection therewith, and such payment, at 
Lessee's request, shall be made by Lessor out of the amount deposited with 
respect to such Taxes and Assessments as aforesaid.  In the event such amount 
is insufficient, then the balance due shall be paid by Lessee.

    6.6  Lessor shall not be required to join in any proceedings referred to 
in this Article, unless the provisions of any law, rule or regulation at the 
time in effect shall require that such proceedings be brought by and/or in 
the name of Lessor, in which event Lessor shall join in such proceedings or 
permit the same to be brought in its name.  Lessor shall not ultimately be 
subjected to any liability for the payment of any costs or expenses in 
connection with any such proceedings, and Lessee will indemnify and save 
harmless Lessor from any such costs and expenses.  Lessee shall be entitled 
to any refund of any Taxes and Assessments and penalties or interest thereon 
received by Lessor but previously reimbursed in full by Lessee.

    6.7  If any income, profits or revenue tax shall be levied, assessed or 
imposed upon the income, profits or revenue arising from rents payable 
hereunder, whether partially or totally in lieu of or as a substitute for 
real estate or personal property taxes imposed upon the Demised Premises or 
Personal Property or otherwise, then Lessee shall be responsible for the 
payment of such tax.


                              ARTICLE VII - TAX DEPOSITS


    7.1       Lessee shall be required to make deposits for annual Taxes and
Assessments and, will make monthly deposits with Lessor, of an amount equal to
one twelfth (1/12) of the annual Taxes and Assessments or such greater amount as
may be required by any Mortgagee.  Said deposits shall be due and payable on the
first day of each month as additional Rent, shall not bear interest and shall be
held by Lessor and/or a mortgagee of the Lessor to pay the real estate taxes as
they become due and payable.  If the total of the monthly payments as made under
this Article shall be insufficient to pay the Taxes and Assessments when due,
then Lessee shall on demand pay Lessor the

                                       9
<PAGE>

amount necessary to make up the deficiency, and if appropriate, Lessee shall 
receive a credit against the next monthly tax escrow payment coming due in an 
amount equal to said deficiency payment.


                               ARTICLE VIII - OCCUPANCY


    8.1  During the Term of this Lease, the Demised Premises shall be used 
and occupied by Lessee for and as a Medicare and Medicaid certified skilled 
care and/or intermediate care nursing home and for no other purpose.  Lessee 
shall at all times maintain in good standing and full force all the licenses, 
certifications and provider agreements issued by the State of Idaho and any 
other applicable state or federal governmental agencies, permitting the 
operation on the Demised Premises of a Medicare and Medicaid certified 
skilled and/or intermediate care nursing home facility with no less than 
sixty-four (64) licensed, and Medicaid certified beds.

    8.2  Lessee will not suffer any act to be done or any condition to exist 
on the Demised Premises which may be dangerous or which may, in law, 
constitute a public or private nuisance or which may void or make voidable 
any insurance then in force on the Demised Premises.

    8.3  Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease, upon 
termination of this Lease for any reason, Lessee will return to Lessor the 
Demised Premises qualified and sufficient for licensing and certification by 
all governmental agencies having jurisdiction over the Demised Premises as a 
Medicare and Medicaid certified skilled and/or intermediate care nursing home 
having no less than sixty-four (64) licensed, and Medicaid certified beds 
with licenses, certifications,  and provider agreements in full force and 
good standing.  All the Demised Premises, with the improvements located 
thereon, and all the Personal Property shall be surrendered in good order, 
condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted.


                                ARTICLE IX - INSURANCE


    9.1  Lessee shall, at its sole cost and expense, during the  Term of this 
Lease, maintain property insurance provided by a Causes of Loss-Special Form 
or similar form.  Such insurance shall include an endorsement for increased 
cost of construction.  Such insurance shall be obtained from a responsible 
company or companies approved by Lessor, not to be unreasonably withheld.  
Such insurance shall, at all times, be maintained in an amount equal to the 
full replacement cost of the Demised Premises and the Personal Property or in 
such lesser amount as may be required by Lessor and any Mortgagee of the

                                       10
<PAGE>

Demised Premises but at all times, in an amount sufficient to prevent Lessor 
and Lessee from becoming co-insurers under applicable provisions of the 
insurance policies. As used herein, the term "full replacement cost" shall 
mean coverage for the actual replacement cost of the Demised Premises and the 
Personal Property requiring replacement from time to time which, if not 
agreed upon by Lessor and Lessee, shall be determined by an appraiser, 
engineer, architect or contractor reasonably selected by Lessor.  Upon 
request by Lessee, Lessor will provide Lessee with information in its 
possession which is reasonably necessary to establish the value of the 
Demised Premises.  Such insurance shall at all times be payable to Lessor and 
Lessee as their interests may appear, and shall contain a loss-payable clause 
to the holder of any Mortgage to which this Lease shall be subject and 
subordinate (in accordance with Article 26 herein) , as said Mortgagee's 
interest may appear. All such policies of insurance shall provide that:

         (a)  They are carried in favor of the Lessor, Lessee and any
Mortgagee, as their respective interests may appear, and any loss shall be
payable as therein provided, notwithstanding any act or negligence of Lessor or
Lessee, which might otherwise result in forfeiture of insurance; and

         (b)  A standard Mortgagee clause in favor of any Mortgagee, and shall
contain, if obtainable, a waiver of the insurer's right of subrogation against
funds paid under the standard Mortgagee endorsement which are to be used to pay
the cost of any repairing, rebuilding, restoring or replacing.

    9.2  Lessee shall also, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, cause to be
issued and shall maintain during the Term  of this Lease:

         (a)  Commercial general liability insurance, including the Lessor as
an additional insured, insuring against claims for bodily injury or property
damage occurring upon, in or about the Demised Premises.  Such insurance to have
limits of not less than $1,000,000 each occurrence and $3,000,000 general
aggregate and an excess or umbrella liability policy of not less than $5,000,000
each occurrence and $5,000,000 aggregate; and

         (b)  Hospital Professional Liability insurance in the amount of
$1,000,000 each occurrence and $3,000,000 aggregate.

Lessor may, from time to time, or any Mortgagee may reasonably require Lessee to
change the amount or type of insurance, or to add or substitute additional
coverages, required to be maintained by Lessee hereunder.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Lessee shall not be required to add coverage for damage to the
Demised Premises resulting from earthquake or flood as covered losses unless the
Demised Premises is classified as an earthquake or flood prone area by an
authority having jurisdiction over the Demised Premises and such authority
recommends such insurance.

                                       11
<PAGE>

    9.3   All policies of insurance shall provide that they shall not be
canceled, terminated, reduced or materially modified without at least twenty
(20) days prior written notice to Lessor and any Mortgagee.

    9.4   An original certificate of insurance for all insurance policies 
required by this Article shall be delivered to Lessor at least five (5) days 
prior to the Commencement Date at any time and from time to time within ten 
(10) days after Lessor's request therefore, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor 
copies of all insurance policies then being carried by Lessee pursuant to 
this Article 9.

    9.5   Lessee shall at all times keep in effect business interruption
insurance with a loss of rents endorsement naming Lessor as an insured in an
amount at least sufficient to cover:

          (a)  The aggregate of the cost of all Taxes and Assessments due during
the period of the business interruption at the Facility (the "Business
Interruption Period");

          (b)  The cost of all insurance premiums for insurance required to be
carried by Lessee, with respect to the Demised Premises, for the Business
Interruption Period; and

          (c)  The aggregate of the amount of the fixed monthly rental for the
Business Interruption Period.

          All proceeds of any business interruption insurance shall be applied,
first, to the payment of any and all fixed rental payments for the Business
Interruption Period; second, to the payment of any Taxes and Assessments and
insurance deposits required to be deposited for the Business Interruption
Period; and, thereafter, after all necessary repairing, rebuilding, restoring or
replacing has been completed as required by the pertinent Articles of this Lease
and the pertinent sections of any mortgage, any remaining balance of such
proceeds shall be paid over to the Lessee.

          In lieu of the foregoing but subject to the terms and conditions of
this Article 9, Lessee may, at its option, obtain and maintain a blanket
insurance policy in an amount sufficient to provide all or part of the coverage
described in this Article 9.


                        ARTICLE X - LESSOR'S RIGHT TO PERFORM


    10.1  Should Lessee fail to perform any of its covenants herein agreed
to be performed, subject to applicable cure periods, if any, set forth in
Section 19.1 herein with respect to any such failure to perform, Lessor may
elect, but shall not be required, to make such payment or perform such
covenants, and all sums so expended by Lessor thereon

                                       12
<PAGE>

shall immediately be payable by Lessee to Lessor, with interest thereon at a 
rate which is the lesser of fifteen percent (15%) per annum or the maximum 
rate permitted by law from date thereof until paid, and in addition, Lessee 
shall reimburse Lessor for Lessor's reasonable expenses in enforcing or 
performing such covenants, including reasonable attorney's fees. Any such 
costs or expenses incurred or payments made by the Lessor shall be deemed to 
be Additional Rent payable by Lessee and collectible as such by Lessor.

    10.2  Performance of and/or payment to discharge said Lessee's
obligations shall be optional with Lessor and such performance and payment shall
in no way constitute a waiver of, or a limitation upon, Lessor's other rights
hereunder.

    10.3  Lessee hereby acknowledges and agrees that any Mortgagee shall have
the right but not the obligation to perform any covenants and pay any amounts
which Lessee has failed to so perform or pay as required under the terms of this
Lease but only to the extent such Mortgagee is entitled under the terms of its
Mortgage and the provisions of any subordination, nondisturbance and attornment
agreement which may be in effect for such Mortgage.


                         ARTICLE XI - REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE


    11.1  Throughout the Term of this Lease, Lessee, at its sole cost and
expense, will keep and maintain, or cause to be kept and maintained, the Demised
Premises (including the grounds, sidewalks and curbs abutting the same) and the
Personal Property in good order and condition without waste and in suitable
state of repair at least comparable to that which existed immediately prior to
the Commencement Date (ordinary wear and tear excepted, subject to Lessee's
obligation to repair and replace the same in accordance with the terms of this
Lease), and will make or cause to be made, as and when the same shall become
necessary, all structural and nonstructural, exterior and interior, replacing,
repairing and restoring necessary to that end.  All replacing, repairing and
restoring required of Lessee shall be (in the reasonable opinion of Lessor) of
quality at least equal to the original work and shall be in compliance with all
standards and requirements of law, licenses and municipal ordinances necessary
to operate the Demised Premises as a Medicare and Medicaid certified skilled
and/or intermediate care nursing home having no less than sixty-four (64)
licensed, and Medicaid certified beds.

    11.2  Any items of Personal Property that are uneconomical to repair shall
be replaced by new items of like kind and all replacement items shall become
part of the Personal Property.  No items of Personal Property shall be removed
from the Demised Premises except in connection with repair or replacement of
such items.  Lessee may place additional property on the Demised Premises (not
required for the replacement of the

                                       13
<PAGE>

Personal Property) and such additional property shall be and remain the 
property of Lessee.  Lessee shall remove such additional property upon 
termination or expiration of this Lease provided that Lessee shall make such 
necessary repairs or replacements as may be required in order to return the 
Demised Premises to the condition which existed prior to the removal of the 
additional property.

    11.3   Provided there is not an Event of Default by Lessee under this 
Lease, Lessee shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to 
remove and dispose of any Personal Property which may have become obsolete or 
unfit for use, or which is no longer useful in the operation of the Demised 
Premises, provided Lessee promptly replaces any such Personal Property so 
removed or disposed of with other personal property free of any security 
interest, lien or encumbrance.  Said personal property shall be of the same 
character and shall be at least equal in usefulness and quality as any such 
Personal Property so removed or disposed of, and such replacement property 
shall automatically become the property of and shall belong to the Lessor, 
and Lessee shall execute such bills of sale or other documents reasonably 
requested by Lessor to vest the ownership of such personal property in 
Lessor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall have the right to place 
leased Personal Property on the Demised Premises provided that the payments 
due under such leases do not exceed $4,000 per year.  In the event Lessee 
desires to place leased personal property on the Demised Premises having 
annual payments in excess of the amount provided for herein, Lessee shall 
advise Lessor in writing and Lessor shall use its reasonable best efforts to 
seek the approval of the Mortgagee or an amendment of the Mortgage with 
respect thereto.


                         ARTICLE XIA - DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION


    11A.1  In the event that any part of the improvements located on the
Demised Premises or the Personal Property shall be damaged or destroyed by fire
or other casualty (any such event being called a "Casualty"), Lessee shall
promptly replace, repair and restore the same as nearly as possible to its
condition immediately prior to such Casualty, in accordance with all of the
terms, covenants and conditions and other requirements of this Lease and any
applicable Mortgage and in accordance with any subordination, nondisturbance and
attornment agreement which may be in effect for such Mortgage; provided,
however, that in the event of a Casualty occurring during the last six (6)
months of the Term or a Casualty resulting from an earthquake, flood, nuclear
accident or war which is not covered by insurance maintained by Lessee and which
renders the Demised Premises unsuitable for use as a nursing home, in the
reasonable opinion of Lessor and Lessee, then Lessee shall have the right to
terminate this Lease upon forty-five (45) days written notice to Lessor.  If
applicable, the Demised Premises and the Personal Property shall be so replaced,
repaired and restored as to be of at least equal value and substantially the
same character as prior to such Casualty.  If the estimated cost of any

                                       14
<PAGE>

such restoring, replacing or repairing is Fifty Thousand Dollars and no/100 
($50,000.00) or more, the plans and specifications for same shall be first 
submitted to and approved in writing by Lessor, which approval shall not be 
unreasonably withheld, and, if reasonably required by Lessor, Lessee shall 
immediately select an independent architect, approved by Lessor who shall be 
in charge of such repairing, restoring or replacing. Lessee covenants that it 
will give to Lessor prompt written notice of any Casualty affecting the 
Demised Premises or the personal property or any portion thereof.

    11A.2  Within thirty (30) days after a casualty or within thirty (30)
days after approval of the final plans and specifications (including by
Mortgagee and any governmental or quasi-governmental agency or entity exercising
jurisdiction), issuance of a building permit and any other necessary permits and
licenses for commencement of construction, whichever is later, Lessee shall
commence to restore the Demised Premises and Lessee shall complete the same
within 180 days thereafter, provided, however, that in the case of damage or
destruction which cannot with due diligence be repaired within said 180 day
period, Lessee shall have an additional period of time, not to exceed 180
additional days, to complete the reconstruction, provided Lessee is proceeding
promptly and with due diligence to complete the restoration.  Lessee may utilize
all insurance proceeds available for any such repair or restoration, subject to
the terms of Section 11A.3 hereof and any required approval of any Mortgagee. 
Lessee's obligation to make Rent payments and to pay all other charges required
by this Lease shall not be abated during the period of the repair or
restoration.

    11A.3  No sums shall be disbursed by Lessor toward such repairing,
rebuilding, restoring or replacing unless it shall be first made to appear to
the reasonable satisfaction of Lessor that either (i) the amount received from
such insurance proceeds is sufficient to complete such work or (ii) if there is
an amount required in excess of the amount received from such insurance
proceeds, either said excess amount has been expended by Lessee or that Lessee
has deposited such excess funds with Lessor or has satisfied Lessor that it has
such funds available to it so that, in either case, the total amount available
will be sufficient to complete such repairing, rebuilding, restoring or
replacing in accordance with the provisions of any Mortgage and any plans and
specifications submitted in connection therewith, free from any liens or
encumbrances of any kind whatsoever and the funds held by Lessor shall be
disbursed periodically during construction, but not more than once every thirty
(30) days after the presentment of architect's or general contractor's
certificates, waivers of lien, contractor's sworn statements, and other evidence
of cost and payments as may be reasonably required by Lessor or any Mortgagee.


                       ARTICLE XII - ALTERATIONS AND DEMOLITION


    12.1   Lessee will not remove or demolish any improvement or building
which is part

                                       15
<PAGE>

of the Demised Premises or any portion thereof or allow it to be
removed or demolished, without the prior written consent of the Lessor, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Except as required by law, Lessee
further agrees that it will not make, authorize or permit to be made any changes
or alterations in or to the Demised Premises without first obtaining Lessor's
written consent thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  All
alterations, improvements and additions to the Demised Premises shall be in
quality and class at least equal to the original work and shall become the
property of the Lessor and shall meet all building and fire codes, and all other
applicable codes, rules, regulations, laws and ordinances.  Nothing herein shall
be deemed or construed to require Lessee to obtain Lessor's consent to
non-structural changes or alterations such as painting, the replacement of
wallcoverings or the replacement of floor coverings.


                         ARTICLE XIII - COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS
                       AND ORDINANCES/ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE


    13.1  Throughout the Term of this Lease, Lessee, at its sole cost and
expense, will obey, observe and promptly comply with all present and future
laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and requirements of any federal,
state and municipal governmental agency or authority having jurisdiction over
the Demised Premises and the operation thereof as a Medicare and Medicaid
certified skilled and/or intermediate care nursing home having no less than
sixty-four (64) licensed, and Medicaid certified beds, which may be applicable
to the Personal Property and the Demised Premises and including, but not limited
to, the sidewalks, alleyways, passageways, vacant land, parking spaces, curb
cuts, curbs adjoining the Demised Premises, which are under Lessee's control,
whether or not such law, ordinance, order, rules, regulation or requirement
shall necessitate structural changes or improvements.

    13.2  Lessee shall likewise observe and comply with the requirements of all
policies of public liability and fire insurance and all other policies of
insurance at any time in force with respect to the Demised Premises.

    13.3  Lessee shall promptly apply for and procure and keep in good
standing and in full force and effect all necessary licenses, permits and
certifications required by any governmental  authority for the purpose of
maintaining and operating on the Demised Premises a Medicare and Medicaid
certified skilled and/or intermediate care nursing home having no less than
sixty-four (64) licensed, and Medicaid certified beds, and the Demised Premises
shall be qualified to participate in the Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement
programs.

    13.4  Upon request, Lessee will deliver or mail to Lessor wherever Rent
is then paid, in form required for notices, copies of all exit interviews,
inspection reports and

                                       16
<PAGE>

surveys, administrative proceedings and/or court actions from all state, 
federal and local governmental bodies regarding the Demised Premises or the 
nursing home operated thereon.  Lessee shall notify Lessor within twenty-four 
(24) hours after receipt thereof of any notice from any governmental agency 
terminating or suspending or threatening termination or suspension of any 
license, permit, provider agreement or certification relating to the Demised 
Premises or the nursing home operated thereon.

    13.5  Lessee shall have the right upon written notice thereof to the
Lessor, to contest by appropriate legal proceedings, diligently conducted in
good faith, the validity or application of any law, regulation or rule mentioned
herein, and to delay compliance therewith pending the prosecution of such
proceedings; provided, however, that no civil or criminal liability would
thereby be incurred by Lessor and no lien or charge would thereby be imposed
upon or satisfied out of the Demised Premises and further provided that the
effectiveness and good standing of any license, certificate or permit affecting
the Demised Premises or the nursing home operated thereon would continue in full
force and effect during the period of such contest.

    13.6  Lessee shall not generate, dispose of, release, use, handle,
possess or store any hazardous substances upon the Demised Premises except in
accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.  Lessee shall at its
sole cost and expense promptly remove or clean up any hazardous substances
introduced onto the Demised Premises by Lessee or with its permission or at its
sufferance.  Such removal or cleanup shall be in compliance with all applicable
laws and regulations.  Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Lessor
harmless and agrees to defend Lessor from all losses, damages, claims,
liabilities and fines, including costs and reasonable attorneys' fees, of any
nature whatsoever in connection with the actual or alleged presence upon the
Demised Premises of any hazardous substances introduced by Lessee or with its
permission or at its sufferance.


                           ARTICLE XIV - DISCHARGE OF LIENS


    14.1  Lessee will not create or permit to be created or to remain, and
Lessee will discharge, any lien, encumbrance or charge levied on account of any
mechanic's, laborer's or materialman's lien or, except as provided for in
Section 11.3 any conditional sale, security agreement or chattel mortgage, or
otherwise, which might be or become a lien, encumbrance or charge upon the
Demised Premises or any part thereof or the income therefrom or the Personal
Property, for work or materials or personal property furnished or supplied to,
or claimed to have been supplied to or at the request of Lessee.

    14.2  If any mechanic's, laborer's or materialman's lien caused or
charged to Lessee shall at any time be filed against the Demised Premises or
Personal Property,

                                       17
<PAGE>

Lessee shall have the right to contest such lien or charge, provided, Lessee 
within thirty (30) days after notice of the filing thereof, will cause the 
same to be discharged of record or in lieu thereof to secure Lessor against 
said lien by either (i) deposit with Lessor of such security as may be 
reasonably demanded by Lessor to protect against such lien, or (ii) post a 
release bond in form and amount as required by applicable law and as 
otherwise satisfactory to Lessor.  If Lessee shall fail to cause such lien to 
be discharged within the period aforesaid, or to otherwise secure Lessor as 
aforesaid, then in addition to any other right or remedy, Lessor may, upon 
ten (10) days notice, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the same 
either by paying the amount claimed to be due or by processing the discharge 
of such lien by deposit or by bonding proceedings.  Any amount so paid by 
Lessor and all costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in connection therewith, 
together with interest thereon at a rate which is the lesser of fifteen 
percent (15%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law, shall 
constitute Additional Rent payable by Lessee under this Lease and shall be 
paid by Lessee to Lessor on demand.  Except as herein provided, nothing 
contained herein shall in any way empower Lessee to do or suffer any act 
which can, may or shall cloud or encumber Lessor's or any Mortgagee's 
interest in the Demised Premises.


                    ARTICLE XV - INSPECTION OF PREMISES BY LESSOR


    15.1  At any time, during reasonable business hours and upon reasonable
notice, Lessor and/or its authorized representatives shall have the right to
enter and inspect the Demised Premises and Personal Property.

    15.2  Lessor agrees that the person or persons entering and inspecting
the Demised Premises and Personal Property will cause as little inconvenience to
the Lessee and to the residents of the Facility as may reasonably be possible
under the circumstances.

    15.3  Lessee hereby acknowledges and agrees that any Mortgagee shall have
the right but not the obligation to enter and inspect the Demised Premises to
the extent such Mortgagee is entitled to do so under the terms of its Mortgage
and to the extent consistent with any subordination, nondisturbance and
attornment agreement then in effect for such Mortgage.


                              ARTICLE XVI - CONDEMNATION


    16.1  In case all or substantially all of the Demised Premises leased
hereunder shall be taken or sold under the threat of such taking for any public
use by act of any public

                                       18
<PAGE>

authorities, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date possession is 
taken by the condemnor.  If all or substantially all of the Demised Premises 
shall be taken, the net proceeds of any condemnation award, settlement or 
compromise for the Demised Premises taken shall belong to Lessor; provided, 
however, Lessee shall have the right to pursue a separate award for the value 
of Lessee's interest in the Demised Premises as long as such separate award 
does not diminish the award, settlement or compromise paid to Lessor; and 
provided, further, that Lessee shall be solely entitled to any amount awarded 
for the value of Lessee's property located on the Demised Premises in 
accordance with Section 11.1 and any amount for relocation and loss of 
business as long as such separate award does not diminish the award.  For the 
purposes of this paragraph "substantially all of the Demised Premises leased 
hereunder" shall be deemed to have been taken if upon the taking of less than 
the whole of the Demised Premises that portion of the Demised Premises not so 
taken shall not by itself be adequate for the conduct therein of Lessee's 
business, in the reasonable judgment of Lessor and Lessee, subject further to 
the rights of Lessor's Mortgagee.

         In the event of a partial condemnation the result of which shall be a
reduction in the number of licensed beds on the Demised Premises to thirty-two
(32) or less, Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease by written
notice to Lessor within thirty (30) days following the issuance of the
condemnation order or conveyance of the property, whichever is earlier.  If
Lessee does not elect to terminate this Lease, Lessor shall hold in trust that
portion, if any, of such award, settlement or compromise which shall be
allocable to consequential damage to buildings and improvements not taken, and
Lessor shall pay out such portion to Lessee to reimburse Lessee for the cost of
restoring the Demised Premises as a complete structural unit, as such
restoration work progresses in accordance with the procedure for making
insurance proceeds available for restoration, repair or rebuilding as set forth
in Article 11A hereof.  In the event of a partial condemnation which does not
result in a termination of this Lease, the annual Rent rate payable under
paragraph 4.1 hereof shall be reduced to such amount as Lessor and Lessee agree
is fair and equitable taking into consideration the number of operational beds
remaining after such taking as compared to the number of operational beds on the
Commencement Date.


                             ARTICLE XVII - RENT ABSOLUTE


    17.1  The Personal Property and the Demised Premises are let and leased
subject to the rights, if any of patients currently residing in the Demised
Premises and the state of the title thereof as of the date the Lessor acquires
title from its seller, to any state of facts which an accurate survey or
physical inspection thereof might show, and to all zoning regulations,
restrictions, rules and ordinances, building restrictions and other laws and
regulations now in effect or hereafter adopted by any governmental authority
having jurisdiction thereover.  Lessee has examined the Personal Property and
the Demised

                                       19
<PAGE>

Premises and has found the same satisfactory. Lessee acknowledges that the 
Personal Property and the Demised Premises are the property of Lessor and 
that Lessee has the leasehold rights as set forth in the terms and conditions 
of this Lease.

         As a material inducement to Lessor in the making of and entry into
this Lease, Lessee hereby expressly agrees as follows:

         (a)  It is the responsibility of the Lessee to be fully acquainted
with the nature, in all respects, of the Demised Premises, including (but not by
way of limitation); the soil and geology thereof, the waters thereof and
thereunder; the drainage thereof; the manner of construction and the condition
and state of repair and lack of repair of all improvements of every nature; the
nature, provisions and effect of all health, fire, zoning, building, subdivision
and all other use and occupancy laws, ordinances, and regulations applicable
thereto; and the nature and extent of the rights of others with respect thereto,
whether by way of reversion, easement, right of way, prescription, adverse
possession, profit, servitude, lease, tenancy, lien, encumbrance, license,
contract, reservation, condition, right of re-entry, possibility of reverter,
sufferance or otherwise.  Lessor makes no representation as to, and has no duty
to be informed with respect to, any of the matters set forth in the preceding
sentence.  Lessee hereby accepts the Demised Premises as suitable and adequate
in all respects for the conduct of the business and the uses of the Demised
Premises contemplated under the provisions of the Lease.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Lessor represents that it has no actual knowledge of anything related
to the foregoing which would cause the Demised Premises to be materially
inadequate for its permitted use hereunder.
 
         (b)  Lessee expressly covenants and agrees that it hereby takes this
Lease and the leasehold estate hereby established upon and subject to Lessor's
title as it was acquired from its seller, including all rights, rights of way,
easements, profits, servitudes, reservations, restrictions, conditions,
exceptions, reversions, possibilities of reverter, liens, encumbrances,
occupancies, tenancies, licenses, clouds, claims and defects, known and unknown
and whether of record or not.  In the event of any defect in Lessor's title to
the Demised Premises by which a third party's paramount fee ownership of the
Demised Premises requires that Lessee vacate the Demised Premises, then in such
event this Lease shall be terminated.

         (c)  Lessee hereby expressly waives any and all rights which it might
otherwise have against Lessor by reason of any of the foregoing, including (but
not limited to) the requirements of any inspection or examination by Lessee of
the Demised Premises.

         Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect, and the obligations of Lessee hereunder 
shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected, by reason of:  (i) any
damage to or destruction of the Demised Premises or any part thereof or the
taking of the Demised Premises or any

                                       20
<PAGE>

part thereof by condemnation, requisition or otherwise for any reason; (ii) 
any restriction or prevention of or interference with any use of the Demised 
Premises or any part thereof including any restriction or interference with 
or circumstance which prevents the use of the Demised Premises as 
contemplated by Paragraph 8.1; (iii) any frustration of Lessee's purposes 
hereunder, for any claim which Lessee has or might have against Lessor; or 
(iv) any other occurrence whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the 
foregoing.  However, nothing shall preclude Lessee from bringing a separate 
action and Lessee is not waiving other rights and remedies not waived herein.


                      ARTICLE XVIII - ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING


    18.1  During the Term of the Lease, Lessee shall not assign this Lease
or in any manner whatsoever sublet, assign or transfer all or any part of the
Demised Premises or in any manner whatsoever transfer or assign an interest in
the Demised Premises or any interest in the Lessee or sell or assign a
controlling number of the outstanding shares in Lessee (other than to Andrew L.
Turner or an entity controlled by Andrew L. Turner or a wholly owned subsidiary
of Lessee or of Lessee's parent corporation Sun Healthcare Group, Inc.) without
the prior written consent of the Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.  Any violation or breach or attempted violation or breach of the
provisions of this Article by Lessee, or any acts inconsistent herewith shall
vest no right, title or interest herein or hereunder or in the Demised Premises,
in any such transferee or assignee; and Lessor may, at its exclusive option,
terminate this Lease and invoke the provisions of this Lease relating to
default.  Lessor acknowledges and agrees that the sale of equity or debt
securities in Lessee or Lessee's parent corporation shall in no event constitute
an assignment or transfer of this Lease or of an interest hereunder provided
Lessee remains a wholly owed subsidiary of Sun Healthcare Group, Inc.


                            ARTICLE XIX - ACTS OF DEFAULT


    19.1  The following acts or events shall be deemed to be an Event of
Default (herein an "Event of Default") on the part of the Lessee:

              (1)  The failure of Lessee to pay when due any Rent, or any part
thereof, or any other sum or sums of money due or payable to the Lessor under
the provisions of this Lease, when such failure shall continue for a period of
ten (10) days following written notice to Lessee;

              (2)  The failure of Lessee to perform, or the violation by Lessee
of, any of the other covenants, terms, conditions or provisions of this Lease
(other than as set

                                       21
<PAGE>

forth in Sections 19.1(3) and 19.1(4), if such failure or violation shall not 
be cured within thirty (30) days after notice thereof by Lessor to Lessee;

              (3)  The removal by any local, state or federal agency having
jurisdiction over the operation of the nursing home located on the Demised
Premises of fifty percent (50%) or more of the patients located in the nursing
home;

              (4)  The failure of Lessee to comply, or the violation by Lessee
of, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Mortgage relating to the
Demised Premises of which Lessee has been made aware and with which Lessee has

                         ARTICLE XX - (INTENTIONALLY OMITTED)


                     ARTICLE XXI - LESSOR'S REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT


    21.1  In the event of any Event of Default on the part of Lessee,
Lessor may, if it so elects, upon written notice to Lessee of such election,
forthwith terminate this Lease and Lessee's right to possession of the Demised
Premises, or, at the option of the Lessor, terminate Lessee's right to
possession of the Demised Premises without terminating this Lease.  Upon any
such termination of this Lease, or upon any such termination of Lessee's right
to possession without termination of this Lease, Lessee shall vacate the Demised
Premises immediately, and shall quietly and peaceably deliver possession thereof
to the Lessor, and Lessee hereby grants to the Lessor full and free license to
enter into and upon the Demised Premises in such event with or without process
of law and to repossess the Demised Premises and Personal Property as the
Lessor's former estate.  In the event of any such termination of this Lease, the
Lessor shall again have possession and enjoyment of the Demised Premises and
Personal Property to the extent as if this Lease had not been made, and
thereupon this Lease and everything herein contained on the part of Lessee to be
done and performed shall cease and terminate, all, however, without prejudice to
and without relinquishing the rights of the Lessor to Rent (which, upon such
termination of this Lease and entry of Lessor upon the Demised Premises, shall,
in any event, be the right to receive Rent due up to the time of such entry) or
any other right given to the Lessor hereunder or by operation of law.

    21.2  In the event of any Event of Default and Lessor's election either
to terminate this Lease or to terminate Lessee's right to possession of the
Demised Premises, then all licenses, certifications, permits and authorizations
issued by any governmental agency, body or authority in connection with or
relating to the Demised Premises and the nursing home operated thereon shall be
deemed to be assigned to Lessor, to the extent permitted by law.  Lessor shall
also have the right to continue to utilize the telephone number and name (other
than the name "Sunrise Healthcare" or similar name) used by Lessee in connection
with the operation of the nursing home located on the Demised Premises.  This
Lease shall be deemed and construed as an assignment for purposes of vesting in
Lessor, all right, title and interest in and to:  (i) all licenses,
certifications, permits and authorizations obtained in connection with the
operation of the nursing home located on the Demised Premises; and (ii) the name
and telephone number used in connection with the operation of the nursing home
located on the Demised Premises (other than the name "Sunrise Healthcare" or
similar name).   Lessee hereby agrees to take such other action and execute such
other documents as may be necessary in order to vest in Lessor all right, title
and interest to the items specified herein, to the extent permitted by law.

    21.3  If Lessee abandons the Demised Premises or otherwise entitles
Lessor so

                                       24
<PAGE>

to elect, and the Lessor elects to terminate Lessee's right to possession 
only, without terminating this Lease, Lessor may, at its option, enter into 
the Demised Premises, remove Lessee's signs and other evidences of tenancy 
and take and hold possession thereof as in the foregoing paragraph 21.2 of 
this Article provided, without such entry and possession terminating this 
Lease or releasing Lessee, in whole or in part, from Lessee's obligation to 
pay the Rent hereunder for the full remaining Term of this Lease, and in any 
such case, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a sum equal to the entire amount of the 
Rent reserved hereunder and required to be paid by Lessee up to the time of 
such termination of the right of possession plus any other sums then due 
hereunder. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of this 
Lease, Lessor may attempt to relet the Demised Premises or any part thereof 
for the account of Lessee for such Rent, or shall operate the nursing home 
located on the Demised Premises for such time and upon such terms as Lessor 
in its sole discretion shall determine. In any such case, Lessor may make 
repairs, alterations and additions in or to the Demised Premises, and 
redecorate the same to the extent deemed desirable by Lessor, and Lessee 
shall, upon demand, pay the reasonable cost thereof, together with Lessor's 
reasonable expenses of reletting.  If the consideration collected by Lessor 
upon any such reletting is not sufficient to pay monthly the full amount of 
Rent reserved in this Lease, together with the reasonable costs of repairs, 
alterations, additions, redecorating and Lessor's expenses, Lessee shall pay 
to the Lessor the amount of each monthly deficiency upon demand.

    21.4  Lessee's liability to Lessor for damages for default in payment
of Rent or otherwise hereunder shall in all events survive the termination by
Lessor of the Lease or the termination by Lessor of Lessee's right to possession
only, as hereinabove provided. Upon such termination of the Lease or at any time
after such termination of Lessee's right to possession, Lessor may recover from
Lessee and Lessee shall pay to Lessor as damages, whether or not Lessor shall
have collected any current monthly deficiencies under the foregoing paragraph,
and in lieu of such current deficiencies after the date of demand for such
damages, the amount thereof found to be due by a court of competent
jurisdiction, which amount thus found may be equal to:

          (a)  the remainder, if any, of Rent and charges due from Lessee for
the period up to and including the date of the termination of the Lease or
Lessee's right to possession;

          (b)  the amount of any current monthly deficiencies accruing and
unpaid by Lessee up to and including the date of Lessor's demand for final
damages hereunder; and

          (c)  the excess, if any, of:

               (i)  the present value, discounted at the rate of 10% per annum,
of the Rent reserved for what would have been the remainder of the Term of this
Lease

                                       25
<PAGE>

together with charges to be paid by Lessee under the Lease; over

              (ii)  the present value, discounted at the rate of 10% per annum
of the then fair rental value of the Demised Premises and the Personal Property.

          If any statute or rule governing a proceeding in which such damages
are to be proved shall validly limit the amount thereof to an amount less than
the amount above agreed upon, Lessor shall be entitled to the maximum amount
allowable under such statute or rule of law.


                          ARTICLE XXII - LIABILITY OF LESSOR


    22.1 It is expressly agreed by the parties that in no case shall Lessor,
any shareholders, officers, directors, managers, members, agents or employees of
Lessor be liable under any express or implied covenant, agreement or provisions
of this Lease, for any damages whatsoever to Lessee beyond Lessor's interest in
the Demised Premises.


                    ARTICLE XXIII - CUMULATIVE REMEDIES OF LESSOR


    23.1      The specific remedies to which Lessor may resort under the terms
of this Lease are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other
remedies or means of redress to which Lessor may be lawfully entitled in case of
any breach or threatened breach by Lessee of any provision or provisions of this
Lease.  The failure of Lessor to insist, in any one or more cases, upon the
strict performance of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or
agreements of this Lease, or to exercise any option herein contained, shall not
be construed as a waiver or relinquishment for the future of any such term,
covenant, condition, provisions, agreement or option.


                           ARTICLE XXIV - SECURITY FOR RENT


    24.1      Lessor shall have a first lien paramount to all others on every
right and interest of Lessee in and to this Lease, and on any furnishings,
equipment, fixtures or other tangible property of any kind belonging to Lessee
and located in or about the Demised Premises.  Such lien is granted for the
purpose of securing the payments of rents, charges, penalties, and damages
herein covenanted to be paid by Lessee, and for the purpose of securing the
performance of all of Lessee's obligations under this Lease. Such lien shall be
in addition to all rights to Lessor given and provided by law but shall only be
exercised

                                       26
<PAGE>

by Lessor after the occurrence of an Event of Default which is not cured 
within any applicable cure period.  This Lease shall constitute a security 
agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code granting Lessor a security 
interest in any furnishings, equipment, fixtures or other tangible personal 
property (subject to the terms of Article 11 herein) of any kind belonging to 
Lessee and located in or about the Demised Premises.  If required by Lessor, 
Lessee shall execute financing statements for filing under the Uniform 
Commercial Code reflecting the security interest granted under this section.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
24.1, in the event all or substantially all of the Demised Premises is sublet,
assigned or transferred or a controlling number of the outstanding shares in
Lessee is sold, assigned or otherwise transferred (other than to Andrew L.
Turner or a wholly owned subsidiary of Lessee or of Lessee's parent corporation
Sun Healthcare Group, Inc.) with the prior written consent of Lessor in
accordance with Section 18.1 of this Lease, this Lease shall at such time
constitute a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code granting
Lessor a security interest in any accounts receivable of Lessee's successor
related to the Demised Premises, and at such time, Lessee's successor shall
execute a security agreement and financing statements for filing under the
Uniform Commercial Code reflecting a security interest in said accounts
receivable.


                            ARTICLE XXV - INDEMNIFICATION


    25.1  To the extent insurance proceeds do not cover same, Lessee.
agrees to protect, indemnify, defend and save harmless the Lessor from and
against any and all claims, demands and causes of action of any nature
whatsoever for injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property,
occurring during the Term on the Demised Premises or, to the extent the same are
under Lessee's control, any adjoining sidewalks, streets or ways, or in any
manner growing out of or connected with the use and occupation of the Demised
Premises by Lessee, its officers, agents, employees or invitees, or Lessee's
maintenance of the condition thereof, or the use of any existing or future sewer
system, or the use of any adjoining sidewalks, streets or ways which are under
Lessee's control during the Term of this Lease, and Lessee further agrees to pay
any reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incident to the defense by Lessor of
any such claims, demands or causes of action.


                       ARTICLE XXVI - SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS


    26.1  This Lease (and Lessee's interest in the Demised Premises and
Personal Property) shall be subject and subordinate to any and all mortgages or
deeds of trust now

                                       27
<PAGE>

or hereafter in force and affecting the Demised Premises (or any portion 
thereof) and/or the Personal Property, and to all renewals, modifications, 
consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof (any such Mortgage or 
deed of trust, as it may be renewed, modified, consolidated, replaced or 
extended is hereinafter referred to as a "Mortgage", and the holder or 
beneficiary of a Mortgage is hereinafter referred to as a "Mortgagee"), 
provided that, for other than Existing Mortgages (as defined below), Lessee 
receives a subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreement in a 
commercially reasonable form satisfactory to such Mortgagee.  Lessee agrees 
to execute, acknowledge and deliver upon demand such further instruments 
subordinating this Lease to any such Mortgage, or other liens or encumbrances 
as shall be desired by Lessor; provided, that Lessee receives a 
subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreement, in a commercially 
reasonable form satisfactory to such Mortgagee.  Furthermore, in connection 
with any mortgage loan pertaining to the Demised Premises existing as of the 
date of this Lease (an "Existing Mortgage"), Lessor agrees to use all 
commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Lessee a nondisturbance 
agreement from the current Mortgagee in a form reasonably satisfactory to 
such Mortgagee on the Commencement Date or as soon as possible thereafter.  
Lessee further agrees that promptly after receipt of a request from any 
Mortgagee made at any time prior to foreclosure of its Mortgage, Lessee shall 
execute, acknowledge and deliver to such Mortgagee any instrument as such 
Mortgagee may reasonably request whereby Lessee agrees to subordinate and 
attorn to such Mortgagee, at such Mortgagee's election, after the foreclosure 
of its Mortgage or its acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, provided 
that Lessee concurrently receives a nondisturbance agreement in commercially 
reasonable form satisfactory to such Mortgagee. Lessee agrees further that 
any Mortgagee shall have the right to subordinate its Mortgage and its rights 
thereunder to this Lease, except that such Mortgagee shall be entitled to 
expressly exclude from such subordination the Mortgagee's rights, if any, to 
insurance proceeds and eminent domain awards in the event of a loss or 
casualty or eminent domain taking of the Demised Premises or any portion 
thereof.  If such Mortgagee executes and records an instrument which purports 
to effect a partial or complete subordination of its Mortgage to this Lease, 
any rights of such Mortgagee to insurance proceeds or eminent domain awards 
which are expressly excluded from such subordination shall remain superior to 
the rights of Lessee.  


             ARTICLE XXVII - LESSEE'S FAITHFUL COMPLIANCE WITH MORTGAGES


    27.1  Subject to the terms of any subordination, nondisturbance and
attornment agreement which may be in effect, and anything in this Lease
contained to the contrary notwithstanding, Lessee shall at all times and in all
respects fully, timely and faithfully comply with and observe each and all of
the conditions, covenants, and provisions required on the part of the Lessor and
of which Lessee has received notice under any Mortgage (and to any renewals,
modifications, extensions, replacements and/or consolidations

                                       28
<PAGE>

thereof) to which this Lease is subordinate or to which it later may become 
subordinate, including, without limitation, such conditions, covenants and 
provisions thereof as relate to the care, maintenance, repair, insurance, 
restoration, preservation and condemnation of the Demised Premises, 
notwithstanding that such conditions, covenants and provisions may require 
compliance and observance to a standard or degree in excess of that required 
by the provisions of this Lease, or may require performance not required by 
the provisions of this Lease, and shall not do or permit to be done anything 
which would constitute a breach of or default under any obligation of the 
Lessor under any such mortgage, it being the intention hereof that Lessee 
shall so comply with and observe each and all of such covenants, conditions 
and provisions of any such Mortgage affecting the Demised Premises so that it 
will at all times be in good standing and there will not be any default on 
the part of the Lessor thereunder.  However, nothing in this Article 
contained shall be construed to obligate Lessee to pay any part of the 
principal or interest secured by any Mortgage or to perform any obligation 
imposed on Lessor thereunder which is not delegable by Lessor by the terms 
thereof.  Lessee further covenants and agrees that Lessee shall give any 
Mortgagee notice of any Lessor default under this Lease, and if Lessor fails 
to cure such default, such Mortgagee shall have an additional reasonable time 
to cure any such default on Lessor's behalf.  


                          ARTICLE XXVIII - MORTGAGE RESERVES


    28.1  Any tax, insurance or other reserve required by the holder of any
Mortgage against the Demised Premises during the Term of this Lease (except for
any payments resulting from Lessor's failure to comply with the terms of the
Mortgage), and not otherwise paid by Lessee to Lessor pursuant to Section 7.1,
shall be paid by the Lessee or as directed by Lessor.


                          ARTICLE XXIX - LESSEE'S ATTORNMENT


    29.1  Lessee covenants and agrees that, if by reason of a default upon
the part of the Lessor herein in the performance of any of the terms and
conditions of any Mortgage which results in the estate of the Lessor thereunder
being terminated by summary dispossession proceedings or otherwise, Lessee will
attorn to the then holder of such Mortgage or the purchaser in such foreclosure
proceedings, as the case may be, and will recognize such holder of the Mortgage
or such purchaser as the Lessor under this Lease. Lessee covenants and agrees to
execute and deliver, at any time and from time to time, upon the request of
Lessor or of the holder of such Mortgage or the purchaser in foreclosure
proceedings, any instrument which may be necessary or appropriate to evidence
such attornment.  Lessee further waives the provisions of any statute or rule of

                                       29
<PAGE>

law now or hereafter in effect which may terminate this Lease or give or 
purport to give Lessee any right of election to terminate this Lease or to 
surrender possession of the Demised Premises in the event any such 
proceedings are brought against the Lessor under such Mortgage or the holder 
of any such Mortgage, and agrees that this Lease shall not be affected in any 
way whatsoever by any such proceedings.

    29.2  If Lessor shall default in the performance of any of the terms,
provisions, covenants or conditions under any Mortgage, or fails to pay the
amounts due thereunder when due, then immediately upon notice of such default or
failure on the part of Lessor, Lessee shall have the right to cure such
defaults, and to make such payments as are due from Lessor, directly to the
holder of the Mortgage, as the case may be, and to the extent such payments are
accepted by the holder of the Mortgage, to deduct the amounts expended by Lessee
to cure such defaults, together with interest thereon from the date of payment
by Lessee at a rate which is the lesser of fifteen percent (15%) per annum or
the maximum rate permitted by law, from the next succeeding rental payment or
payments due under this Lease, and such deductions shall not constitute a
default under this Lease.


                     ARTICLE XXX - REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES


    30.1  Lessee represents, warrants and covenants to Lessor as follows:

of curing any default or defaults of Lessee hereunder, in which event Lessee
shall replenish said deposit in full by promptly paying to Lessor the amount so

thereof, shall be paid to Lessee within thirty (30) days after the termination

measure of Lessor's damages for any default hereunder by Lessee.


                         ARTICLE XXXII - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


    32.1  Within 120 days after the end of each of its fiscal years, Lessee
shall furnish to Lessor full and complete financial statements of the operations

long-term care facility; and

          (h)  At Lessors option, the business of the Lessee as conducted at the
Demised Premises as a going concern, including but not limited to the name of
the business conducted thereon and all telephone numbers presently in use
therein but specifically excluding the name "Sunrise Healthcare" or similar

confidential or proprietary information.

    33.2  Lessee shall be responsible for, and pay all accrued expenses
with respect to the Demised Premises and Personal Property accruing before 12:00
a.m. on the Closing Date and shall be entitled to all revenues from the Demised
Premises for the period through 12:00 a.m. on the Closing Date.  Lessor shall be
responsible for and pay all accrued expenses with respect to the Demised
Premises accruing on or after 12:01 a.m. on the day after the Closing Date and
shall be entitled to receive and retain all revenues from the Demised Premises
accruing on or after the Closing Date.  Within fifteen (15) business days after
the Closing Date, the following adjustments and prorations shall be determined

payment within said fifteen (15) day period:

          (a)  Real estate taxes, ad valorem taxes, school taxes, assessments
and personal property, intangible and use taxes, if any.  If the actual ad
valorem taxes are not available on the Closing Date for the tax year in which
the Closing Date occurs, the proration of such taxes shall be estimated at the
Closing Date based upon reasonable information available to the parties,
including information disclosed by the local tax office or other public
information, and an adjustment shall be made when actual figures are published
or otherwise become available.

          (b)  Lessee will terminate the employment of all employees on the
Closing Date.  The obligation for wages and the obligation, if any, to pay to
employees of the Demised Premises accrued vacation and sick leave pay or
employee severance pay or other accrued benefits which may be payable as the
result of any termination of any employee on or prior to the Closing Date for
the period prior to the Closing Date shall remain the Lessee's obligation after
the Closing Date.

         (c)  Lessor shall receive a credit equal to any advance payments
received by Lessee from patients of the Demised Premises to the extent
attributable to periods following the Closing Date.

         (d)  The present insurance coverage on the Demised Premises shall be
terminated as of the Closing Date and there shall be no proration of insurance
premiums.

         (e)  All other income from, and expenses of, the Demised Premises
(other than Mortgage interest and principal), including but not limited to
public utility charges and

                                       33
<PAGE>

deposits, maintenance charges and service charges shall be prorated between 
Lessee and Lessor as of the Closing Date.  Lessee shall, if possible, obtain 
final utility meter readings as of the Closing Date. To the extent that 
information for any such proration is not available on the Closing Date, 
Lessee and Lessor shall effect such proration within ninety (90) days after 
the Closing Date or as soon thereafter as such information becomes available.

          (f)  Lessee shall receive a credit equal to (i) any sums held in
escrow by Lessor or the holder of any Mortgage for taxes or insurance premiums;
and (ii) any other sums being held by Lessor for the benefit of Lessee provided
that any such sums are not needed to pay costs and expenses which relate to the
period prior to the Closing Date, in accordance with the applicable provisions
of this Lease.

          (g)  Subject to the terms of Article 31 hereof, Lessee shall receive a
credit for any security deposit made pursuant to this Lease.

          (h)  Lessor shall receive a credit for any amounts due from Lessee
pursuant to the terms of this Lease, including payments due to third party
vendors, which are paid by Lessor on behalf of Lessee.

          (i)  Lessee shall be and will remain responsible for any employee's
severance pay and accrued benefits which may be payable as a result of any
termination of an employee's employment on or prior to the Closing Date.  

    33.3  All necessary arrangements shall be made to provide possession of
the Demised Premises to Lessor on the Closing Date, at which time of possession
Lessee shall, to the extent permitted by law, deliver to Lessor all medical
records, patient records and other personal information concerning all patients
residing at the Demised Premises as of the Closing Date and other relevant
records used or developed in connection with the business conducted at the
Demised Premises other than Lessee's corporate business records, manuals, forms
and systems documentation or other confidential or proprietary information. 
Such transfer and delivery shall be in accordance with all applicable laws,
rules and regulations concerning the transfer of medical records and other types
of patient records.

    33.4  Within fifteen (15) days following the Closing Date, Lessee shall
provide Lessor with an accounting of all funds belonging to patients at the
Demised Premises which are held by Lessee in a custodial capacity.  Such
accounting shall set forth the names of the patients for whom such funds are
held, the amounts held on behalf of each such patient and the Lessee's warranty
that, to the actual current knowledge of Lessee, the accounting is true, correct
and complete. Additionally, Lessee, in accordance with all applicable rules and
regulations, shall make all necessary arrangements to transfer such funds to a
bank account designated by Lessor, and Lessor shall in writing acknowledge

                                       34
<PAGE>

receipt of and expressly assume all the Lessee's financial and custodial
obligations with respect thereto.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee will
indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from all liabilities, claims and demands,
including reasonable attorney's fees, in the event the amount of funds, if any,
transferred to Lessor's bank account as provided above, did not represent the
full amount of the funds then or thereafter shown to have been delivered to
Lessee as custodian that remain undisbursed for the benefit of the patient for
whom such funds were deposited, or with respect to any matters relating to
patient funds which accrue during the Term of this Lease.

    33.5  For the period commencing upon an Event of Default hereunder and
Lessor's election to terminate this Lease as provided in Article 21 and ending
on the date Lessor or its designee obtains all appropriate state or other
governmental licenses and certifications required to operate the Demised
Premises as a Medicare and Medicaid certified nursing home, Lessee shall enter
into a management agreement with Lessor or Lessor's designee whereby Lessor or
its designee shall have the right to operate the Demised Premises, on a triple
net basis, and shall be entitled to all revenues of the Demised Premises during
such period, and to use any and all licenses, certifications and provider
agreements issued to Lessee by any federal, state or other governmental
authority for such operation of the Demised Premises, if permitted by such
governmental authorities.

    33.6  All cash, checks and cash equivalents at the Demised Premises and
deposits in bank accounts (other than patient trust accounts) relating to the
Demised Premises on the Closing Date shall remain Lessee's property after the
Closing Date.  All accounts receivable, loans receivable and other receivables
of Lessee, whether derived from operation of the Demised Premises or otherwise,
shall remain the property of Lessee after the Closing Date.  Lessee shall retain
full responsibility for the collection thereof.  Lessor shall assume
responsibility for the billing and collection of payment on account of services
rendered by it on and after the Closing Date. In order to facilitate Lessee's
collection efforts, Lessee agrees to deliver to Lessor, within a reasonable time
after the Closing Date, a schedule identifying all of those private pay balances
owing for the month prior to the Closing Date and Lessor agrees to apply any
payments received which are specifically designated as being applicable to
services rendered prior to the Closing Date to reduce the pre-Closing balances
of said patients by promptly remitting said payments to Lessee.  In the event
payments specifically indicate that they relate to services rendered
post-Closing, such payments shall be retained by Lessor.  In the event no
designation is made, such payments shall be applied one-half to Lessee's
accounts receivable and one-half to Lessor's accounts receivable.  Lessor shall
cooperate with Lessee in Lessee's collection of its pre-Closing accounts
receivable. Lessor shall have no liability for uncollectible receivables and
shall not be obligated to bear any expense as a result of such activities on
behalf of Lessee.  Subject to the provisions of Article 24 hereof, Lessor shall
remit to Lessee or its assignee those portions of any payments received by
Lessor which are specifically designated as repayment or reimbursement received
by Lessor arising out

                                       35
<PAGE>

of cost reports filed for the cost reporting periods ending prior to the 
Closing Date.

    33.7  With respect to residents in the Demised Premises on the Closing
Date, Lessor and Lessee agree as follows:

          (a)  With respect to Medicare and Medicaid residents, Lessor and
Lessee agree that payment for in-house residents covered by Medicare or Medicaid
on the Closing Date will, under current regulations, be paid by Medicare or
Medicaid directly to Lessee for services rendered at the Demised Premises prior
to the Closing Date allocated on the per diem basis.  Said payments shall be the
sole responsibility of Lessee and, except as provided in Section 33.7(b) below,
Lessor shall in no way be liable therefor.  After the Closing Date, Lessor and
Lessee shall each have the right to review supporting books, records and
documentation that are in the possession of the other relating to Medicaid or
Medicare payments.

          (b)  If, following the Closing Date, Lessor receives payment from any
state or federal agency or third-party  payor which represents reimbursement
with respect to services provided at the Demised Premises prior to the Closing
Date, Lessor agrees that it shall remit such payments to Lessee.  Payments by
Lessor to Lessee shall be accompanied by a copy of the appropriate remittance
advice.

    33.8  In addition to the obligations required to be performed hereunder
by Lessee and Lessor at the Closing Date, Lessee and Lessor agree to perform
such other acts, and to execute, acknowledge, and/or deliver subsequent to the
Closing Date such other instruments, documents and materials, as the other may
reasonably request in order to effectuate the consummation of the transaction
contemplated herein.  The obligations hereunder shall survive termination or
expiration of the Lease.

    33.9  Lessee and Lessor each, for itself, its successors and assigns
hereby indemnifies and agrees to defend and hold the other and its successors
and assigns harmless from any and all claims, demands, obligations, losses,
liabilities, damages, recoveries and deficiencies (including interest, penalties
and reasonable attorney's fees, costs and expenses) (hereinafter collectively
"the Claims") which any of them may suffer as a result of the breach by the
other party in the performance of any of its commitments, covenants, or
obligations under this Article 33.  Lessee does further agree to indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Lessor from any such Claims or with respect to any
suits, arbitration proceedings, administrative actions or investigations which
relate to the use by Lessee of the Demised Premises prior to the Closing Date or
any liability which may arise from operation by Lessee of the Demised Premises
as a nursing home prior to the Closing Date or any amounts recaptured under
Title XIX based upon applicable Medicare/Medicaid Recapture Regulations.  Lessor
does further agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lessee from any such
Claims or with respect to any suits, arbitration proceedings, administrative
actions or investigations which relate to the ownership of the Demised

                                       36
<PAGE>

Premises by Lessor or the use of the Demised Premises by Lessor or the 
operation by Lessor of the nursing home located thereon after the Closing 
Date.  The rights of the parties under this paragraph are without prejudice 
to any other remedies not inconsistent herewith which the parties may have 
pursuant to the terms of this Lease, provided the rights of Lessee hereunder 
are subject to Section 22.1 hereof.

    33.10 Anything to the contrary contained in this Article 33
notwithstanding, in the event the termination of this Lease is due to a default
by Lessee, none of the provisions of this Article 33 shall in any way limit,
reduce, restrict or modify the rights granted to Lessor pursuant to Articles 21,
23, and 24 of this Lease.  If the termination of this Lease is a result of an
Event of Default, then to the extent any monies are due to Lessee pursuant to
this Article 33, such sums shall be applied by Lessor to any damages suffered by
Lessor as a result of Lessee's Event of Default.


                            ARTICLE XXXIV - MISCELLANEOUS


    34.1  Lessee, upon paying the fixed Rent, Additional Rent including
Taxes and Assessments and all other charges herein provided, and upon observing
and keeping the covenants, agreements, terms and conditions of this Lease on its
part to be performed, shall lawfully and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the
Demised Premises during the Term of this Lease, and subject to its terms,
without hindrance by Lessor or by any other person or persons claiming under
Lessor.

    34.2  All payments to be made by the Lessee hereunder, whether or not
designated as Rent, shall be deemed Additional Rent, so that in the event of a
default of payment when due, the Lessor shall be entitled to all of the remedies
available at law or equity, or under this Lease, for the nonpayment of Rent.

    34.3  It is understood and agreed that the granting of any consent by
Lessor to Lessee to perform any act of Lessee requiring Lessor's consent under
the terms of this Lease, or the failure on the part of Lessor to object to any
such action taken by Lessee without Lessor's consent, shall not be deemed a
waiver by Lessor of its rights to require such consent for any further similar
act by Lessee, and Lessee hereby expressly covenants and warrants that as to all
matters requiring Lessor's consent under the terms of this Lease, Lessee shall
secure such consent for each and every happening of the event requiring such
consent, and shall not claim any waiver on the part of Lessor of the requirement
to secure such consent.

    34.4  Lessee and Lessor each represent to the other party that it did
not deal with any broker in connection with this Lease, and hereby indemnifies
the other party against the claims or demands of any broker claimed through a
relationship with it.

    34.5  If an action shall be brought to recover any rental under this
Lease, or for or on account of any breach of or to enforce or interpret any of
the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease, or for the recovery of
possession of the Demised Premises, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
recover from the other party, as part of the prevailing party's costs,
reasonable attorney's fees, the amount of which shall be fixed by the court and
shall be made a part of any judgment rendered.

    34.6  Should Lessee hold possession hereunder after the expiration of
the Term this Lease with the consent of Lessor, Lessee shall become a tenant on
a month-to-month basis upon all the terms, covenants and conditions herein
specified, excepting however that Lessee shall pay Lessor a monthly rental, for
the period of such month-to-month tenancy, in an amount equal to one hundred
fifty percent (150%) the last rental specified.

    34.9   Each party agrees any time, and from time to time, upon not less
than ten (10) days prior written request from the other party, to execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the other party a statement in writing, certifying
that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have
been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified, and

the Security Deposit held by Lessor, and whether the Lease is then in default or
whether any events have occurred which, with the giving of notice or the passage
of time, or both, could constitute a default hereunder, it being intended that
any such statement delivered pursuant to this paragraph may be relied upon by
any prospective assignee, Mortgagee or purchaser of the fee interest in the
Demised Premises or of this Lease.

    34.10  All of the provisions of this Lease shall be deemed and construed
to be "conditions" and "covenants" as though the words specifically expressing
or importing covenants and conditions were used in each separate provision
hereof.

    34.11  Any reference herein to the termination of this Lease shall be
deemed to include any termination thereof by expiration or pursuant to Articles
referring to earlier termination.

    34.12  The headings and titles in this Lease are inserted only as a
matter of convenience and for reference and in no way define, limit or describe
the scope or intent of this Lease, nor in any way affect this Lease.

    34.13  This Lease contains the entire agreement between the parties and
any executory agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to change, modify or
discharge it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in writing
and signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, modification or
discharge is sought.  This Lease cannot be changed orally or terminated orally.

    34.14  Except as otherwise herein expressly provided, the covenants,
conditions and agreements in this Lease shall bind and inure to the benefit of
the Lessor and Lessee and their respective successors and assigns.

    34.15  All nouns and pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed
to refer to the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular or plural as the identity
of the person or persons, firm or firms, corporation or corporations, entity or
entities or any other thing or things may require.

    34.16  If any term or provision of this Lease shall to any extent be
held invalid or

                                       39
<PAGE>

unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions of this Lease shall not be 
affected thereby, but each term and provision shall be valid and be 
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

    34.17  In the event of any conveyance or other divestiture of title to
the Demised Premises, the grantor or the person who is divested of title shall
be entirely freed and relieved of all covenants and obligations thereafter
accruing hereunder, and the grantee or the person who otherwise succeeds to
title shall be deemed to have assumed the covenants and obligations of the
grantor or the person who is divested of title thereafter accruing hereunder and
shall then be the Lessor under this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary provided in this Lease, if Lessor or any successor in interest of
Lessor shall be an individual, partnership, corporation, trust, tenant in common
or Mortgagee, there shall be absolutely no personal liability on the part of any
individual or member of Lessor or any stockholder, director, officer, employee,
partner or trustee of Lessor with respect to the terms, covenants or conditions
of this Lease, and Lessee shall look solely to the interest of Lessor in the
Demised Premises for the satisfaction of each and every remedy which Lessee may
have for the breach of this Lease; such exculpation from personal liability to
be absolute and without any exception, whatsoever.

    34.18  The failure of either party to insist on strict performance of
any of the covenants, agreements, terms, and conditions of this Lease or to
exercise any option conferred herein in any one or more instances shall not be
construed to be a waiver or relinquishment of any such covenant, agreement,
term, condition or option and the same shall be and remain in full force and
effect.

    34.19  This Lease may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute but
one and the same instrument.
