B.Pursuant to the Lease, Tenant has leased from Landlord all of Landlord's right, title and interest in and to certain land (the "Land"), the senior living facilities located thereon (collectively, the "Facilities"), and the furniture, furnishings, fixtures, equipment, machinery, and other personal property owned or leased by Landlord and located at the Facilities (collectively, the "Personal Property," and together with the Land and the Facilities, collectively, the "Property").

C.In connection with the Lease, Tenant executed in favor of Landlord that certain Security Agreement dated July 6, 2016 (the "Security Agreement"). Pursuant to the Security Agreement, Tenant granted to Landlord a first priority security interest in all of the cash, accounts receivable, assets, FF&E, records, goodwill, contracts, agreements and properties, both tangible and intangible, owned or leased by Tenant that are used in connection with the ownership, operation or development of the Property (the "Collateral").

D.In connection with the Lease, Lender, through its predecessor entity AdCare Health Systems, Inc., made a loan to Tenant (the "Loan"), which Loan is evidenced by, among other things, that certain Promissory Note dated July 6, 2016 in the original principal amount of $1,000,000.00 executed by Tenant in favor of Lender (the "Note").

E.In connection with the Loan, Lender, Tenant, and Congressional Bank entered into that certain Subordination Agreement dated April 6, 2017 (the "Subordination Agreement"). Pursuant to the Subordination Agreement, Lender subordinated the Loan and the payment of principal and interest on the Loan to a $2,500,000.00 revolving credit facility extended to Tenant by Congressional Bank (the "AR Line"). Pursuant to Section 3.9 of the Subordination Agreement, the Subordination Agreement remains in full force and effect until

(a)all Senior Liabilities (as defined in the Subordination Agreement) have been paid in full and

G.Tenant has repaid the AR Line in full and the Subordination Termination Conditions set forth in the Subordination Agreement have been met. Landlord, Lender, and Tenant desire to make certain modifications to the Loan and Lease as set forth herein.

H.In furtherance of restructuring the Tenant's finances and reducing the sums due Lender, Tenant has undertaken a SBA loan which requires a Security Interest in the same Tenant assets as that given to Landlord though not disturbing the priority of the existing security interests.

imposed, and agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord and Lender harmless from any and all liabilities, costs, expenses, fees, or other amounts of any nature relating to the Bed Tax liability.
