                                   WITNESSETH

         WHEREAS, Lessee is the holder of the lessee's interest under those
certain twelve (12) Facility Lease Agreements more particularly described in

                              LEASED PROPERTY; TERM

         1.1 Leased Property. Upon and subject to the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth, Lessor leases to Lessee and Lessee rents and leases from
Lessor all of Lessor's rights and interests in and to the following real and
personal property (collectively, the "Leased Property"):

                  (a) the real property described in EXHIBITS B-1 through B-12
         attached hereto (collectively, the "Land");

                  (b) all buildings, structures, Fixtures (as hereinafter
         defined) and other improvements of every kind including, but not
         limited to, alleyways and connecting tunnels, sidewalks, utility pipes,
         conduits and lines, and parking areas and roadways appurtenant to such
         buildings and structures presently or hereafter situated upon any
         portion of the Land (collectively, the "Leased Improvements");

                  (c) all easements, rights and appurtenances of every nature
         and description now or hereafter relating to or benefiting any or all
         of the Land and the Leased Improvements (collectively, the "Related
         Rights"); and

                  (d) all equipment, machinery, building fixtures, and other
         items of property (whether realty, personalty or mixed), including all
         components thereof, now or hereafter located in, on or used in
         connection with, and permanently affixed to or incorporated into the
         Leased Improvements, including, without limitation, all furnaces,
         boilers, heaters, electrical equipment, heating, plumbing, lighting,
         ventilating, refrigerating, incineration, air and water pollution
         control, waste disposal, air-cooling and air-conditioning systems and
         apparatus, sprinkler systems and fire and theft protection equipment,
         and built-in oxygen and vacuum systems, all of which, to the greatest
         extent permitted by law, are hereby deemed by the parties hereto to
         constitute real estate, together with all replacements, modifications,
         alterations and additions thereto, but specifically excluding all items
         included within the category of Tangible Personal Property (as
         hereinafter defined) which are not permanently affixed to or


                                     - 2 -
<PAGE>
         incorporated in the Leased Property (collectively, the "Fixtures").

         The Leased Property is leased in its present condition, AS IS, without
representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied, by Lessor and
subject to: (i) the rights of parties in possession; (ii) the existing state of
title including all covenants, conditions, Liens (as hereinafter defined) and
other matters of record (including, without limitation, the matters set forth in
EXHIBIT C); (iii) all applicable laws and (iv) all matters, whether or not of a
similar nature, which would be disclosed by an inspection of the Leased Property
or by an accurate survey thereof. References in this Lease to the "Leased
Property" shall mean the entire Leased Property unless expressly stated
otherwise.

         1.2 Indivisible Lease. This Lease constitutes one indivisible lease of
the entire Leased Property. The Leased Property constitutes one economic unit
and the Base Rent and all other provisions have been negotiated and agreed to
based on a lease of all the Leased Property as a single, composite, inseparable
transaction and would have been materially different had separate leases or a
divisible lease been intended. Except as expressly provided herein for specific,
isolated purposes (and then only to the extent expressly otherwise stated), all
provisions of this Lease shall apply equally and uniformly to all the Leased
Property as one unit and any Lease Default under this Lease is a Lease Default
as to the entire Leased Property. The parties intend that the provisions of this
Lease shall at all times be construed, interpreted and applied so as to carry
out their mutual objective to create a single indivisible lease of all the
Leased Property and, in particular but without limitation, that for purposes of
any assumption, rejection or assignment of this Lease under the Bankruptcy Code,
this is one indivisible and non-severable lease and executory contract dealing
with one legal and economic unit which must be assumed, rejected or assigned as
a whole with respect to all (and only all) the Leased Property covered hereby.
The parties may amend this Lease from time to time to include one or more
additional properties as part of the Leased Property and such future addition to
the Leased Property shall not in any way change the indivisible and
non-severable nature of this Lease and all of the foregoing provisions shall
continue to apply in full force.


                                     - 3 -

         1.3 Term. The term of this Lease (the "Term") shall commence on the
date hereof (the "Commencement Date") and end on December 31, 2007 (the
"Expiration Date"), provided, however, that this Lease may be sooner terminated
as hereinafter provided.

                                      RENT

      3.1   Base Rent for Land, Leased Improvements, Related Rights and
Fixtures.  Subject to the terms of the Option Agreement, Lessee will pay to
Lessor, in lawful money of the United States of America, at Lessor's address set
forth herein or at such other place or to such other Person as Lessor from time
to time may designate in writing, rent for the Leased Property, as follows:

            (a)   Base Rent:  Base Rent for the period from the date hereof
      through March 31, 2002 shall be the Base Rent that would have been payable
      for such period under the Existing Leases.  For the period from April 1,
      2002 through and including the Expiration Date, Lessee shall pay a base
      rent per annum that is equal to the product of (i) the Meditrust
      Investment from time to time outstanding multiplied by (ii) Nine and
      165555/1000000 percent (9.165555%), payable in advance in equal,
      consecutive monthly installments due on the first day of each calendar
      month, commencing on April 1, 2002.

            (b)   Additional Rent: In addition to the Base Rent, commencing on
      the Commencement Date Lessee shall pay to Lessor additional rent (the
      "Additional Rent") which shall


                                      -27-
<PAGE>
      equal, in each Fiscal Year, the sum of (i) the Additional Rent payable
      with respect to the immediately preceding Fiscal Year plus (ii) an amount
      equal to twenty percent (20%) of Excess Gross Revenues for the then
      current Fiscal Year. Additional Rent shall accrue commencing on the
      Commencement Date and shall be payable during the Term, quarterly in
      arrears, commencing on the first day of the first fiscal quarter
      commencing after the Commencement Date occurs and there shall be an annual
      reconciliation as provided in Section 3.2 below. Notwithstanding the
      foregoing, in no event shall any increase to the Additional Rent for any
      Fiscal Year exceed two percent (2%) of the total of Base Rent and
      Additional Rent payable with respect to the immediately preceding Fiscal
      Year.

      Additional Rent payable hereunder for any fractional Fiscal Year shall be
      prorated so that such Additional Rent shall equal the product of (x) the
      Additional Rent payable with respect to the immediately preceding Fiscal
      Year plus an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the annualized Excess
      Gross Revenues for the applicable fractional Fiscal Year multiplied by (y)
      a fraction (the "Proration Factor"), the numerator of which is the number
      of days in the applicable fractional Fiscal Year and the denominator of
      which is 365; provided, however, that, in no event shall the Additional
      Rent payable during (A) the Fiscal Year in which the Commencement Date
      occurs exceed the product of two percent (2%) of the total aggregate of
      the of base rent payable under the Existing Leases with respect to the
      immediately preceding Fiscal Year multiplied by the applicable Proration
      Factor and (B) any other fractional Fiscal Year increase by more than the
      product of two percent (2%) of the total of Base Rent and Additional Rent
      payable with respect to the immediately preceding Fiscal Year multiplied
      by the applicable Proration Factor.

      3.2   Calculation and Payment of Additional Rent; Annual Reconciliation.

            3.2.1 Estimates and Payments.  Commencing on the Commencement Date,
      Additional Rent to be paid during each Fiscal Year during the Term shall
      be estimated by Lessee at the beginning of each Fiscal Year for which it
      is payable (and in no event shall such estimate be less than the


                                      -28-
<PAGE>
      Additional Rent payable for the prior Fiscal Year, except with respect to
      the estimate to be made on the Commencement Date), and shall be paid
      quarterly in arrears (in equal installments on the first day of July,
      October, January and April) based on such estimate, to be adjusted at the
      end of each such year based on the actual Excess Gross Revenues during
      that Fiscal Year.  In addition, on the Commencement Date, Lessee shall
      estimate the Additional Rent to be paid for the period from (and
      including) the Commencement Date through (and including) the end of the
      fiscal quarter during which the Commencement Date occurs.  Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, on a quarterly basis, with the prior consent of Lessor,
      Lessee may also adjust the quarterly payments of Additional Rent to be
      made hereunder based upon a comparison of (a) the actual Gross Revenues
      generated by the Leased Property during the applicable quarter and (b) the
      original estimate of Additional Rent for the applicable Fiscal Year
      prepared by Lessee and the amount of Additional Rent already paid by
      Lessee pertaining to the applicable Fiscal Year.

            3.2.2 Annual Statement.  In addition, within sixty (60) days
      following any Fiscal Year for which Additional Rent is payable hereunder,
      Lessee shall deliver to Lessor an Officer's Certificate, reasonably
      acceptable to Lessor and certified by the chief financial officer of
      Lessee, setting forth the Gross Revenues for the immediately preceding
      Fiscal Year.

            3.2.3 Deficits.  If the Additional Rent, as finally determined for
      any Fiscal Year (or portion thereof), exceeds the sum of the quarterly
      payments of Additional Rent previously paid by Lessee with respect to said
      Fiscal Year, within thirty (30) days after such determination is required
      to be made hereunder, Lessee shall pay such deficit to Lessor and, if the
      deficit exceeds five percent (5%) of the Additional Rent which was
      previously paid to Lessor with respect to said Fiscal Year, then Lessee
      shall also pay Lessor interest on such deficit at the Overdue Rate from
      the applicable quarterly date that such payment should have originally
      been made by Lessee to the date that Lessor receives such payment.


                                      -29-
<PAGE>
            3.2.4 Overpayments.  If the Additional Rent, as finally determined
      for any Fiscal Year (or portion thereof), is less than the amount
      previously paid with respect thereto by Lessee, and if no Lease Default
      exists, Lessee shall notify Lessor either (a) to pay to Lessee an amount
      equal to such difference or (b) to grant Lessee a credit against
      Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such difference.

            3.2.5 Final Determination.  The obligation to pay Additional Rent
      shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term (as to
      Additional Rent payments that are due and payable with respect to periods
      prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Term and during any
      periods that Lessee remains in possession of the Leased Property), and a
      final reconciliation, taking into account, among other relevant
      adjustments, any contractual allowances which related to Gross Revenues
      that accrued prior to the date of such expiration or earlier termination,
      but which have been determined to be not payable.  Lessee's good faith
      best estimate of the amount of any unresolved contractual allowances shall
      be made not later than two (2) years after said expiration or termination
      date.  Within sixty (60) days after the expiration or earlier termination
      of the Term, Lessee shall advise Lessor of Lessee's best estimate of the
      approximate amount of such adjustments, which estimate shall not be
      binding on Lessee or have any legal effect whatsoever.

            3.2.6 Best Efforts To Maximize Gross Revenues.  Lessee further
      covenants that the operation of each Facility shall be conducted in a
      manner consistent with the prevailing standards and practices recognized
      in the respective healthcare or assisted living industry as those
      customarily utilized by first class business operations of similar nature
      in the geographic region in which such Facility is located.  Subject to
      any applicable Legal Requirements, the members of the Leasing Group shall
      use their best efforts to maximize each Facility's Gross Revenues, and to
      that end, but without limiting the foregoing, (a) an adequate staff of
      employees shall be maintained at each Facility and (b) a maximum amount of
      space in each Facility shall be devoted to revenue producing activities
      and only such part thereof shall be


                                      -30-
<PAGE>
      devoted for office, storage and non-revenue producing purposes as shall be
      reasonably necessary.

      3.3   Confirmation and Audit of Additional Rent.

            3.3.1 Maintain Accounting Systems.  Lessee shall utilize, or cause
      to be utilized, an accounting system for the Leased Property in accordance
      with usual and customary practices in the respective healthcare or
      assisted living industry and in accordance with GAAP which will accurately
      record all Gross Revenues.  Lessee shall retain, for at least three (3)
      years after the expiration of each Fiscal Year (and in any event until the
      final reconciliation described in Section 3.2 above has been made),
      adequate records conforming to such accounting system showing all Gross
      Revenues for such Fiscal Year.

            3.3.2 Audit By Lessor.  Lessor, at its own expense except as
      provided hereinbelow, shall have the right, from time to time and upon
      reasonable notice to Lessee, to have Lessor's accountants or
      representatives audit the information set forth in the Officer's
      Certificate referred to in Section 3.2 and in connection with such audits,
      to examine Lessee's records with respect thereto (including supporting
      data, income tax and sales tax returns), subject to any prohibitions or
      limitations on disclosure of any such data under applicable law or
      regulations, including without limitation, any duly enacted "Patients'
      Bill of Rights" or similar legislation, including such limitations as may
      be necessary to preserve the confidentiality of any Facility-patient
      relationship and any physician-patient privilege.

            3.3.3 Deficiencies and Overpayments.  If any such audit discloses a
      deficiency in the reporting of Gross Revenues and either Lessee agrees
      with the result of such audit or the matter is compromised, Lessee shall
      forthwith pay to Lessor the amount of the deficiency in Additional Rent
      which would have been payable by it had such deficiency in reporting Gross
      Revenues not occurred, as finally agreed or determined, together with
      interest on the Additional Rent which should have been payable by it,
      calculated at the Overdue Rate, from the date when said payment should
      have been made by Lessee to the date that Lessor receives such payment.
      Notwithstanding anything to


                                      -31-
<PAGE>
      the contrary herein, with respect to any audit that is commenced more than
      two (2) years after the date Gross Revenues for any Fiscal Year are
      reported by Lessee to Lessor, the deficiency, if any, with respect to
      Additional Rent shall bear interest as permitted herein only from the date
      such determination of deficiency is made, unless such deficiency is the
      result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Lessee (or
      any Affiliate thereof). If any audit conducted for Lessor pursuant to the
      provisions hereof discloses that (a) the Gross Revenues actually received
      by Lessee for any Fiscal Year exceed those reported by Lessee by more than
      five percent (5%), Lessee shall pay the reasonable cost of such audit and
      examination or (b) Lessee has overpaid Additional Rent, and if no Lease
      Default exists, Lessor shall so notify Lessee and Lessee shall direct
      Lessor either (i) to refund the overpayment to Lessee or (ii) grant a
      credit against Additional Rent next coming due in the amount of such
      difference.

            3.3.4 Survival.  The obligations of Lessor and Lessee contained in
      this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
      Lease.

      3.4   Additional Charges.  Subject to the rights to contest as set forth
in Article 15, in addition to the Base Rent, (a) Lessee will also pay and
discharge as and when due and payable all Impositions, all amounts, liabilities
and obligations under the Appurtenant Agreements due from or payable by the
owner of the Leased Property, all amounts, liabilities and obligations under the
Permitted Encumbrances due from or payable by the owner of the Leased Property
and all other amounts, liabilities and obligations which Lessee assumes or
agrees to pay under this Lease, and (b) in the event of any failure on the part
of Lessee to pay any of those items referred to in clause (a) above, Lessee will
also promptly pay and discharge every fine, penalty, interest and cost which may
be added for non-payment or late payment of such items (the items referred to in
clauses (a) and (b) above being referred to herein collectively as the
"Additional Charges"), and Lessor shall have all legal, equitable and
contractual rights, powers and remedies provided in this Lease, by statute or
otherwise, in the case of non-payment of the Additional Charges, as well as the
Base Rent.  To the extent that Lessee pays any Additional Charges to Lessor


                                      -32-
<PAGE>
pursuant to any requirement of this Lease, Lessee shall be relieved of its
obligation to pay such Additional Charges to any other Person to which such
Additional Charges would otherwise be due.

      3.5   Net Lease.  The Rent shall be paid absolutely net to Lessor, so that
this Lease shall yield to Lessor the full amount of the installments of Base
Rent, and the payments of Additional Charges throughout the Term.

      3.6   No Lessee Termination or Offset.

            3.6.1 No Termination.  Except as may be otherwise specifically and
      expressly provided in this Lease, Lessee, to the extent not prohibited by
      applicable law, shall remain bound by this Lease in accordance with its
      terms and shall neither take any action without the consent of Lessor to
      modify, surrender or terminate the same, nor seek nor be entitled to any
      abatement, deduction, deferment or reduction of Rent, or set-off against
      the Rent, nor shall the respective obligations of Lessor and Lessee be
      otherwise affected by reason of (a) any Casualty or any Taking of any
      portion of the Leased Property, (b) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of,
      or restriction upon, Lessee's use of any portion of the Leased Property or
      the interference with such use by any Person (other than Lessor, except to
      the extent permitted hereunder) or by reason of eviction by paramount
      title; (c) any claim that Lessee has or might have against Lessor, (d) any
      default or breach of any warranty by Lessor or any of the other Meditrust
      Entities under this Lease, any other Lease Document or any Related Party
      Agreement, (e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition,
      readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings
      affecting Lessor or any assignee or transferee of Lessor or (f) any other
      cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, other than a
      discharge of Lessee from any of the Lease Obligations as a matter of law.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amounts collected by Lessor under any
      title insurance policies insuring Lessor's interest in any portion of the
      Leased Property (less any costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in
      collecting the same) shall be credited against the Lease Obligations.

            3.6.2 Waiver.  Lessee to the fullest extent not prohibited by
      applicable law, hereby specifically waives all rights, arising from any
      occurrence whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by
      law to (a) modify, surrender or terminate all or any portion of this Lease
      or quit or surrender the Leased Property or (b) entitle Lessee to any
      abatement, reduction, suspension or deferment of the Rent or other sums
      payable by Lessee hereunder, except as otherwise specifically and
      expressly provided in this Lease.

            3.6.3 Independent Covenants.  The obligations of Lessor and Lessee
      hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements and
      the Rent and all other sums payable by Lessee hereunder shall continue to
      be payable in all events unless the obligations to pay the same shall be
      terminated pursuant to the express provisions of this Lease or (except in
      those instances where the obligation to pay expressly survives the
      termination of this Lease) by termination of this Lease other than by
      reason of an Event of Default.

      3.7   Abatement of Rent Limited.  There shall be no abatement of Rent on
account of any Casualty, Taking or other event, except that in the event of a
partial Taking or a temporary Taking as described in Section 14.3, the Base Rent
shall be abated as follows:  (a) in the case of such a partial Taking, the
Meditrust Investment shall be reduced for the purposes of calculating Base Rent
pursuant to Section 3.1 by subtracting therefrom, as applicable, the net amount
of the Award received by Lessor, and (b) in the case of such a temporary Taking,
by reducing the Base Rent for the period of such a temporary Taking, by the net
amount of the Award received by Lessor.

      For the purposes of this Section 3.7, the "net amount of the Award
received by Lessor" shall mean the Award paid to Lessor on account of such
Taking, minus all costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in connection therewith,
and minus any amounts paid to or for the account of Lessee to reimburse for the
costs and expenses of reconstructing any Facility following such Taking in order
to create a viable and functional Facility under all of the circumstances.

                          IMPOSITIONS; TAXES; UTILITIES;
                                INSURANCE PAYMENTS

      4.1   Payment of Impositions.

            4.1.1 Lessee To Pay.  Subject to the provisions of Article 15,
      Lessee will pay or cause to be paid all Impositions before any fine,
      penalty, interest or cost may be added for non-payment, such payments to
      be made directly to the taxing authority where feasible, and Lessee will
      promptly furnish Lessor copies of official receipts or other satisfactory
      proof evidencing payment not later than the last day on which the same may
      be paid without penalty or interest.  Subject to the provisions of Article
      15 and Section 4.1.2, Lessee's obligation to pay such Impositions shall be
      deemed absolutely fixed upon the date such Impositions become a lien upon
      the Leased Property or any part thereof.

            4.1.2 Installment Elections.  If any such Imposition may, at the
      option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not
      interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Lessee
      may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the
      unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and, in such event,
      shall pay such installments during the Term hereof (subject to Lessee's
      right to contest pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.1.5 below) as the
      same respectively become due and before any fine, penalty, premium,
      further interest or cost may be added thereto.

            4.1.3 Returns and Reports.  Lessor, at its expense, shall, to the
      extent permitted by applicable law, prepare and file all tax returns and
      reports as may be required by Governmental Authorities in respect of
      Lessor's net income, gross receipts, franchise taxes and taxes on its
      capital stock, and Lessee, at its expense, shall, to the extent permitted
      by applicable laws and regulations, prepare and file all other tax returns
      and reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by
      Governmental Authorities.  Lessor and Lessee shall, upon request of the
      other, provide such data as is maintained by


                                      -35-
<PAGE>
      the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Leased Property
      as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports. In the
      event that any Governmental Authority classifies any property covered by
      this Lease as personal property, Lessee shall file all personal property
      tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may legally so file. Lessor, to
      the extent it possesses the same, and Lessee, to the extent it possesses
      the same, will provide the other party, upon request, with cost and
      depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any portion of
      Leased Property so classified as personal property. Where Lessor is
      legally required to file personal property tax returns, if Lessee notifies
      Lessor of the obligation to do so in each year at least thirty (30) days
      prior to the date any protest must be filed, Lessee will be provided with
      copies of assessment notices so as to enable Lessee to file a protest.

            4.1.4 Refunds.  If no Lease Default shall have occurred and be
      continuing, any refund due from any taxing authority in respect of any
      Imposition paid by Lessee shall be paid over to or retained by Lessee.  If
      a Lease Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at Lessor's option,
      such funds shall be paid over to Lessor and/or retained by Lessor and
      applied toward the Obligations in accordance with the Lease Documents
      and/or the Related Party Agreements.

            4.1.5 Protest.  Upon giving notice to Lessor, at Lessee's option and
      sole cost and expense, and subject to compliance with the provisions of
      Article 15, Lessee may contest, protest, appeal, or institute such other
      proceedings as Lessee may deem appropriate to effect a reduction of any
      Imposition and Lessor, at Lessee's cost and expense as aforesaid, shall
      fully cooperate in a reasonable manner with Lessee in connection with such
      protest, appeal or other action.

      4.2   Notice of Impositions.  Lessor shall give prompt notice to Lessee of
all Impositions payable by Lessee hereunder of which Lessor at any time has
knowledge, but Lessor's failure to give any such notice shall in no way diminish
Lessee's obligations hereunder to pay such Impositions.


                                      -36-
<PAGE>
      4.3   Adjustment of Impositions.  Impositions imposed in respect of the
period during which the expiration or earlier termination of the Term occurs
shall be adjusted and prorated between Lessor and Lessee, whether or not such
Impositions are imposed before or after such expiration or termination, and
Lessee's obligation to pay its prorated share thereof shall survive such
expiration or termination.

      4.4   Utility Charges.  Lessee will pay or cause to be paid all charges
for electricity, power, gas, oil, water, telephone and other utilities used in
the Leased Property during the Term and thereafter until Lessee surrenders the
Leased Property in the manner required by this Lease.

      4.5   Insurance Premiums.  Lessee will pay or cause to be paid all
premiums for the insurance coverage required to be maintained pursuant to
Article 12 during the Term, and thereafter until Lessee yields up the Leased
Property in the manner required by this Lease.  All such premiums shall be paid
annually in advance and Lessee shall furnish Lessor with evidence satisfactory
to Lessor that all such premiums have been so paid prior to the commencement of
the Term and thereafter at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date of each
premium which thereafter becomes due.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee may
pay such insurance premiums to the insurer in monthly installments so long as
the applicable insurer is contractually obligated to give Lessor not less than a
sixty (60) days notice of non-payment and so long as no Lease Default has
occurred and is continuing.  In the event of the failure of Lessee either to
comply with the insurance requirements in Article 12, or to pay the premiums for
such insurance, or to deliver such policies or certificates thereof to Lessor at
the times required hereunder, Lessor shall be entitled, but shall have no
obligation, to effect such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, which
premiums shall be a demand obligation of Lessee to Lessor.

      4.6   Deposits.

            4.6.1 Lessor's Option.  Upon a Lease Default, or an event which,
      with the giving of notice or passage of time, and/or both, would
      constitute a Lease Default, at the option of Lessor, which may be
      exercised at any time thereafter, Lessee shall, upon written request of
      Lessor, on the first day of the calendar month immediately following such
      request, and on the first day of each


                                      -37-
<PAGE>
      calendar month thereafter during the Term (each of which dates is referred
      to as a "Monthly Deposit Date"), pay to and deposit with Lessor a sum
      equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Impositions to be levied, charged,
      filed, assessed or imposed upon or against any portion of the Leased
      Property within one (1) year after said Monthly Deposit Date and a sum
      equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the premiums for the insurance policies
      required pursuant to Article 12 which are payable within one (1) year
      after said Monthly Deposit Date. If the amount of the Impositions to be
      levied, charged, assessed or imposed or insurance premiums to be paid
      within the ensuing one (1) year period shall not be fixed upon any Monthly
      Deposit Date, such amount for the purpose of computing the deposit to be
      made by Lessee hereunder shall be estimated by Lessor with an appropriate
      adjustment to be promptly made between Lessor and Lessee as soon as such
      amount becomes determinable. In addition, Lessor may, at its option, from
      time to time require that any particular deposit be greater than
      one-twelfth (1/12th) of the estimated amount payable within one (1) year
      after said Monthly Deposit Date, if such additional deposit is required in
      order to provide to Lessor a sufficient fund from which to make payment of
      all Impositions on or before the next due date of any installment thereof,
      or to make payment of any required insurance premiums not later than the
      due date thereof.

            4.6.2 Use of Deposits.  The sums deposited by Lessee under this
      Section 4.6 shall be held by Lessor and shall be applied in payment of the
      Impositions or insurance premiums, as the case may be, when due.  Any such
      deposits may be commingled with other assets of Lessor, and shall be
      deposited by Lessor at such bank as Lessor may, from time to time select.
      Lessor may, at its election from time to time exercised, invest all or
      part of such deposits in one or more of the investment vehicles described
      on EXHIBIT E.  Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee or any other Person
      (a) based on Lessor's (or such bank's) choice of investment vehicles, (b)
      for any consequent loss of principal or interest or (c) for any
      unavailability of funds based on such choice of investment.  Furthermore,
      Lessor shall bear no responsibility for the financial condition of, nor
      any act or omission by, Lessor's depository bank.  The income from such
      investment or interest on such deposit shall be


                                      -38-
<PAGE>
      paid to Lessee on a semi-annual basis as long as no Lease Default has
      occurred and is then continuing, and as long as no fact or circumstance
      exists which, with the giving of notice and/or the passage of time, would
      constitute a Lease Default. Lessee shall give not less than ten (10) days
      prior written notice to Lessor in each instance when an Imposition or
      insurance premium is due, specifying the Imposition or premium to be paid
      and the amount thereof, the place of payment, and the last day on which
      the same may be paid in order to comply with the requirements of this
      Lease. If Lessor, in violation of its obligations under this Lease, does
      not pay any Imposition or insurance premium when due, for which a
      sufficient deposit exists, Lessee shall not be in default hereunder by
      virtue of the failure of Lessor to pay such Imposition or such insurance
      premium and Lessor shall pay any interest or fine assessed by virtue of
      Lessor's failure to pay such Imposition or insurance premium.

            4.6.3 Deficits.  If for any reason any deposit held by Lessor under
      this Section 4.6 shall not be sufficient to pay an Imposition or insurance
      premium within the time specified therefor in this Lease, then, within ten
      (10) days after demand by Lessor, Lessee shall deposit an additional
      amount with Lessor, increasing the deposit held by Lessor so that Lessor
      holds sufficient funds to pay such Imposition or premium in full (or in
      installments as otherwise provided for herein), together with any penalty
      or interest due thereon.  Lessor may change its estimate of any Imposition
      or insurance premium for any period on the basis of a change in an
      assessment or tax rate or on the basis of a prior miscalculation or for
      any other good faith reason; in which event, within ten (10) days after
      demand by Lessor, Lessee shall deposit with Lessor the amount in excess of
      the sums previously deposited with Lessor for the applicable period which
      would theretofore have been payable under the revised estimate.

            4.6.4 Other Properties.  If any Imposition shall be levied, charged,
      filed, assessed, or imposed upon or against any portion of the Leased
      Property, and if such Imposition shall also be a levy, charge, assessment,
      or imposition upon or for any other real or personal property that does
      not constitute a part of the Leased Property,


                                      -39-
<PAGE>
      then the computation of the amounts to be deposited under this Section 4.6
      shall be based upon the entire amount of such Imposition and Lessee shall
      not have the right to apportion any deposit with respect to such
      Imposition.

            4.6.5 Transfers.  In connection with any assignment of Lessor's
      interest under this Lease, the original Lessor named herein and each
      successor in interest shall have the right to transfer all amounts
      deposited pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.6 and still in its
      possession to such assignee (as the subsequent holder of Lessor's interest
      in this Lease) and upon such transfer and delivery of notice thereof to
      Lessee, the original Lessor named herein or the applicable successor in
      interest transferring the deposits shall thereupon be completely released
      from all liability with respect to such deposits so transferred and Lessee
      shall look solely to said assignee, as the subsequent holder of Lessor's
      interest under this Lease, in reference thereto.

            4.6.6 Security.  All amounts deposited with Lessor pursuant to the
      provisions of this Section 4.6 shall be held by Lessor as additional
      security for the payment and performance of the Obligations and, upon the
      occurrence of any Lease Default, Lessor may, in its sole and absolute
      discretion, apply said amounts towards payment or performance of such
      Obligations.

            4.6.7 Return.  Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this
      Lease, provided, that, all of the Lease Obligations have been fully paid
      and performed, any sums then held by Lessor under this Section 4.6 shall
      be refunded to Lessee; unless a Related Party Default has occurred, in
      which event such sums may be applied towards the Obligations in accordance
      with the Related Party Agreements.

            4.6.8 Receipts.  Lessee shall deliver to Lessor copies of all
      notices, demands, claims, bills and receipts in relation to the
      Impositions and insurance premiums immediately upon receipt thereof by
      Lessee.

      5.1   Ownership of the Leased Property.  Lessee acknowledges that the
Leased Property is the property of Lessor and that Lessee has only the right to
the exclusive possession and use of the Leased Property upon the terms and
conditions of this Lease.

      5.2   Personal Property; Removal and Replacement of Personal Property.

            5.2.1 Lessee To Equip Facility.  Lessee, at its sole cost and
      expense, shall install, affix or assemble or place on each Facility
      Property, sufficient items of Tangible Personal Property in addition to
      Lessor's Personal Property, to enable each Facility Property to be
      operated in accordance with the requirements of this Lease for its Primary
      Intended Use, and such Tangible Personal Property and replacements
      thereof, shall be at all times the property of Lessee.

            5.2.2 Sufficient Personal Property.  Lessee shall maintain, during
      the entire Term, the Tangible Personal Property and Lessor's Personal
      Property in good order and repair and shall provide at its expense all
      necessary replacements thereof, as may be necessary in order to operate
      the Leased Property, in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements
      and Insurance Requirements and otherwise in accordance with customary
      practice in the industry for the Primary Intended Use.  In addition,
      Lessee shall, (a) furnish all necessary replacements of obsolete items of
      the Tangible Personal Property and Lessor's Personal Property during the
      Term, unless Lessee provides Lessor with an explanation (reasonably
      acceptable to Lessor) as to why such Tangible Personal Property and/or
      Lessor's Personal Property is no longer required in connection with the
      operation of the Leased Property and (b) at least once a year, and more
      frequently if requested by Lessor, deliver to Lessor, a detailed inventory
      of all such Tangible Personal Property and Lessor's Personal Property.

            5.2.3 Removal and Replacement; Lessor's Option to Purchase.  Lessee
      shall not remove from any Facility Property any one or more items of
      Tangible Personal


                                      -41-
<PAGE>
      Property (whether now owned or hereafter acquired), the fair market value
      of which exceeds THIRTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($35,000), individually or
      ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($150,000.00) collectively, except if
      such Tangible Personal Property is simultaneously suitably replaced or
      Lessee provides Lessor with an explanation (reasonably satisfactory to
      Lessor) as to why such Tangible Personal Property is no longer required in
      connection with the operation of such Facility Property. At its sole cost
      and expense, Lessee shall restore the Leased Property to the condition
      required by Article 8, including repair of all damage to the Leased
      Property caused by the removal of the Tangible Personal Property, whether
      effected by Lessee or Lessor. Upon the expiration or earlier termination
      of this Lease, Lessor shall have the option, which may be exercised prior
      to or within sixty (60) days following such expiration or termination, of
      (a) acquiring the Tangible Personal Property (pursuant to a bill of sale
      and assignments of any equipment leases, all in such forms as are
      reasonably satisfactory to Lessor) upon payment of its book value
      (Lessee's cost, minus depreciation), but not in excess of its fair market
      value or (b) requiring Lessee to remove the Tangible Personal Property. If
      Lessor exercises its option to purchase the Tangible Personal Property,
      the price to be paid by Lessor shall be (i) reduced by the amount of all
      payments due on any equipment leases or any other Permitted Prior Security
      Interests assumed by Lessor and (ii) applied to the Lease Obligations
      before any payment to Lessee. If Lessor requires the removal of the
      Tangible Personal Property, then all of the Tangible Personal Property
      that is not removed by Lessee within ten (10) days following such request
      shall be considered abandoned by Lessee and may be appropriated, sold,
      destroyed or otherwise disposed of by Lessor without first giving notice
      thereof to Lessee, without any payment to Lessee and without any
      obligation to account therefor.

<PAGE>
            6.1.1 Security.  In order to secure the payment and performance of
      all of the Obligations, Lessee agrees to provide or cause there to be
      provided, among other things, the following security:

                  (a)   a first lien and exclusive security interest in the
            Tangible Personal Property, Receivables and certain other Collateral
            as more particularly provided for in the Security Agreement;

                  (b)   a first lien and exclusive pledge of all of the capital
            stock of Lessee all as more particularly set forth in the Pledge
            Agreement.  If any Person other than Lessee shall ever operate any
            Facility, a pledge of all capital stock of, or partnership or other
            ownership interests, in such Person shall also be provided pursuant
            to a pledge and security agreement substantially similar to the
            Pledge Agreement; and

                  (c)   a first lien and exclusive pledge and assignment of, and
            security interest in, all Permits and Contracts, as more
            particularly provided for in the Permits Assignment.

            6.1.2 Purchase-Money Security Interests and Equipment Leases.
      Notwithstanding any other provision hereof regarding the creation of
      Liens, but subject to Section 11.3.1, Lessee may (a) grant priority
      purchase money security interests in items of Tangible Personal Property
      and (b) lease Tangible Personal Property from equipment lessors for the
      exclusive use of each Facility, as long as in each instance: (i) the
      secured party or equipment lessor enters into an intercreditor agreement
      with, and satisfactory to, Lessor, pursuant to which, without limiting the
      foregoing, (x) Lessor shall be afforded the option of curing defaults and
      the option of succeeding to the rights of Lessee and (y) Lessor's security
      interest in Tangible Personal Property shall be subordinated to the
      security interest granted to such secured party, (ii) all of the terms,
      conditions and provisions of the financing, security interest or lease are
      reasonably acceptable to Lessor, (iii) Lessee provides a true and complete
      copy, as executed, of each such purchase money security agreement,
      financing document and equipment


                                      -43-

      lease and all amendments thereto and (iv) no such security interest,
      financing agreement or lease is cross-defaulted or cross-collateralized
      with any other obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to
      Tangible Personal Property used at each Facility, Lessee may lease, or
      grant purchase money security interests in, new items of Tangible Personal
      Property having an aggregate cost during the Term in an amount not to
      exceed TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($200,000) without complying with the
      foregoing requirements, provided that Lessee shall provide Lessor with a
      true and complete copy, as executed, of each purchase money security
      agreement, related financing document and equipment lease, and all
      amendments thereto. Security interests granted by Lessee in full
      compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.1.2 are referred to as
      "Permitted Prior Security Interests".

      6.2   Guaranty.  All of the Lease Obligations shall be unconditionally and
irrevocably guaranteed by the Guarantor pursuant to the Guaranty.

                                    ARTICLE 7

                      CONDITION AND USE OF LEASED PROPERTY;
                              MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS

      7.1   Condition of the Leased Property.  Lessee acknowledges that
Affiliates of Lessee previously caused the Leased Property to be sold to Lessor
and concurrently entered into leases, subleases or management agreements with
respect to the Leased Property, and that the leases for the Leased Property
entered into at the time of Lessor's acquisition of the Leased Property have
been consolidated into this Lease.  Lessee acknowledges receipt and delivery of
possession of the Leased Property and that Lessee has examined and otherwise has
acquired knowledge of the condition of the Leased Property prior to the
execution and delivery of this Lease and has found the same to be in good order
and repair and satisfactory for its purposes hereunder.  Lessee is leasing the
Leased Property "AS-IS" in its present condition.  Lessee waives any claim or
action against Lessor in respect of the condition of the Leased Property.
LESSOR MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO
THE LEASED PROPERTY, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE,
ITS DESIGN OR CONDITION OR OTHERWISE,


                                      -44-
<PAGE>
OR AS TO DEFECTS IN THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT
OR PATENT; IT BEING AGREED THAT ALL RISKS RELATING TO THE DESIGN, CONDITION
AND/OR USE OF THE LEASED PROPERTY ARE TO BE BORNE BY LESSEE. LESSEE HEREBY
ASSUMES ALL RISK OF THE PHYSICAL CONDITION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY, THE
SUITABILITY OF THE LEASED PROPERTY FOR LESSEE'S PURPOSES, AND THE COMPLIANCE OR
NON-COMPLIANCE OF THE LEASED PROPERTY WITH ALL APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND ZONING OR LAND USE LAWS.

      Upon the request of Lessor, accompanied by an explanation reasonably
establishing a justification for such request, at any time and from time to time
during the Term, Lessee shall engage one (1) or more independent professional
consultants, engineers and inspectors, qualified to do business in the
applicable State(s) and acceptable to Lessor to perform any environmental and/or
structural investigations and/or other inspections of all or any portion of the
Leased Property and any one or more Facilities as Lessor may reasonably request
in order to detect (a) any structural deficiencies in the Leased Improvements or
the utilities servicing the Leased Property or (b) the presence of any condition
that (i) may be harmful or present a health hazard to the residents and other
occupants of the Leased Property or (ii) constitutes a breach or violation of
any of the Lease Documents.  In the event that Lessor reasonably determines that
the results of such testing or inspections are unsatisfactory, within thirty
(30) days of notice from Lessor, Lessee shall commence such appropriate remedial
actions as may be reasonably requested by Lessor to correct such unsatisfactory
conditions and, thereafter, shall diligently and continuously prosecute such
remedial actions to completion within the time limits prescribed in this Lease
or the other Lease Documents.

      7.2   Use of the Leased Property; Compliance; Management.

            7.2.1 Obligation to Operate.  Lessee shall continuously operate each
      Facility Property in accordance with its Primary Intended Use and maintain
      its qualifications for licensure and accreditation as required by all
      applicable Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements.

            7.2.2 Permitted Uses.  Lessee shall use each Facility Property, or
      permit each Facility Property to be used, only for its Primary Intended
      Use.  Lessee shall not


                                      -45-
<PAGE>
      use any Facility Property or permit any Facility Property to be used for
      any other use without the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent
      may be withheld in Lessor's sole and absolute discretion.

            7.2.3 Compliance With Insurance Requirements.  No use shall be made
      or permitted to be made of the Leased Property and no acts shall be done
      which will cause the cancellation of any insurance policy covering the
      Leased Property, nor shall Lessee, any Manager or any other Person sell or
      otherwise provide to any residents, other occupants or invitees therein,
      or permit to be kept, used or sold in or about the Leased Property, any
      article which may be prohibited by any Legal Requirement or by any of the
      Insurance Requirements.  Furthermore, Lessee shall, at its sole cost and
      expense, take whatever other actions that may be necessary to comply with
      and to insure that the Leased Property complies with all Insurance
      Requirements.

            7.2.4 No Waste.  Lessee shall not commit or suffer to be committed
      any waste on, in or under the Leased Property, nor shall Lessee cause or
      permit any nuisance thereon.

            7.2.5 No Impairment.  Lessee shall neither suffer nor permit the
      Leased Property to be used in such a manner as (a) might reasonably tend
      to impair Lessor's title thereto or (b) may reasonably make possible a
      claim or claims of adverse usage or adverse possession by the public or of
      implied dedication of the Leased Property.

            7.2.6 No Liens.  Except as permitted pursuant to Section 6.1.2,
      Lessee shall not permit or suffer any Lien to exist on the Tangible
      Personal Property and shall in no event cause, permit or suffer any Lien
      to exist with respect to any portion of the Leased Property other than as
      set forth in Section 11.5.2.

      7.3   Compliance with Legal Requirements.  Lessee covenants and agrees
that the Leased Property shall not be used for any unlawful purpose and that
Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, will promptly (a) comply with, and shall
cause every other member of the Leasing Group to comply with, all Legal
Requirements relating to the use, operation, maintenance, repair and restoration
of the Leased Property, whether or not


                                      -46-
<PAGE>
compliance therewith shall require structural change in any portion of the
Leased Property or interfere with the use and enjoyment of the Leased Property
and (b) procure, maintain and comply with (in all material respects), and shall
cause every other member of the Leasing Group to procure, maintain and comply
with (in all material respects), all Contracts and Permits necessary in order to
operate each Facility for its respective Primary Intended Use, and for
compliance with all of the terms and conditions of this Lease. Unless a Lease
Default has occurred or any event has occurred which, with the passage of time
and/or the giving of notice would constitute a Lease Default, Lessee may, upon
prior written notice to Lessor, contest any Legal Requirement to the extent
permitted by, and in accordance with, Article 15.

      7.4   Management Agreements.  From and after the Commencement Date, Lessee
shall not enter into any Management Agreement without the prior written approval
of Lessor, in each instance, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Lessee shall not, without the prior written approval of Lessor, in each
instance, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, agree to or allow:
(a) any change in the Manager or change in the ownership or control of the
Manager, (b) any change in the Management Agreement, (c) the termination of any
Management Agreement (other than in connection with the exercise by Lessee of
any of its remedies under any Management Agreement as a result of any default by
the Manager thereunder), (d) any assignment by the Manager of its interest under
the Management Agreement or (e) any material amendment of the Management
Agreement.  In addition, Lessee shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly
and fully perform or cause to be performed every covenant, condition, promise
and obligation of the licensed operator of the applicable Facility Property
under any Management Agreement.

      Each Management Agreement shall provide that Lessor shall be provided
notice of any defaults thereunder and, at Lessor's option, an opportunity to
cure such default.  Lessee shall furnish to Lessor, within three (3) days after
receipt thereof, or after the mailing or service thereof by Lessee, as the case
may be, a copy of each notice of default which Lessee shall give to, or receive
from any Person, based upon the occurrence, or alleged occurrence, of any
default in the performance of any


                                      -47-
<PAGE>
covenant, condition, promise or obligation under any Management Agreement.

      Whenever and as often as Lessee shall fail to perform, promptly and fully,
at its sole cost and expense, any covenant, condition, promise or obligation on
the part of the licensed operator any Facility under and pursuant to any
Management Agreement, Lessor, or a lawfully appointed receiver of any Facility,
may, at their respective options (and without any obligation to do so), after
five (5) days' prior notice to Lessee (except in the case of an emergency) enter
upon the applicability Facility Property and perform, or cause to be performed,
such work, labor, services, acts or things, and take such other steps and do
such other acts as they may deem advisable, to cure such defaulted covenant,
condition, promise or obligation, and any amount so paid or advanced by Lessor
or such receiver and all costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection
therewith (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses and court
costs), shall be a demand obligation of Lessee to Lessor or such receiver, and,
Lessor shall have the same rights and remedies for failure to pay such costs on
demand as for Lessee's failure to pay any other sums due hereunder.

                                    ARTICLE 8

                              REPAIRS; RESTRICTIONS

      8.1   Maintenance and Repair.

            8.1.1 Lessee's Responsibility.  Lessee, at its sole cost and
      expense, shall keep each Facility Property and all private roadways,
      sidewalks and curbs appurtenant thereto which are under Lessee's control
      in good order and repair (whether or not the need for such repairs occurs
      as a result of Lessee's use, any prior use, the elements or the age of any
      Facility Property or such private roadways, sidewalks and curbs or any
      other cause whatsoever) and, subject to Articles 9, 13 and 14, Lessee
      shall promptly, with the exercise of all reasonable efforts, undertake and
      diligently complete all necessary and appropriate repairs, replacements,
      renovations, restorations, alterations and modifications thereof of every
      kind and nature, whether interior or exterior, structural or
      non-structural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen or
      arising by reason of a condition (concealed or otherwise)


                                      -48-
<PAGE>
      existing prior to the commencement of, or during, the Term and thereafter
      until Lessee surrenders the Leased Property in the manner required by this
      Lease. In addition, Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall make all
      repairs, modifications, replacements, renovations and alterations of each
      Facility Property (and such private roadways, sidewalks and curbs) that
      are necessary to comply with all applicable Legal Requirements and
      Insurance Requirements so that each Facility can be legally operated for
      its Primary Intended Use. All repairs, replacements, renovations,
      alterations, and modifications required by the terms of this Section 8.1
      shall be (a) performed in a good and workmanlike manner in compliance with
      all Legal Requirements, Insurance Requirements and the requirements of
      Article 9 hereof, using new materials well suited for their intended
      purpose and (b) consistent with the operation of the Leased Property in a
      first class manner. Lessee will not take or omit to take any action the
      taking or omission of which might materially impair the value or the
      usefulness of the Facilities for their Primary Intended Use. To the extent
      that any of the repairs, replacements, renovations, alterations or
      modifications required by the terms of this Section 8.1 constitute
      Material Structural Work, Lessee shall obtain Lessor's prior written
      approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the
      specific repairs, replacements, renovations, alterations and modifications
      to be performed by or on behalf of Lessee in connection with such Material
      Structural Work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a bona
      fide emergency during which Lessee is unable to contact the appropriate
      representatives of Lessor, Lessee may commence such Material Structural
      Work as may be necessary in order to address such emergency without
      Lessor's prior approval, provided, however, that Lessee shall immediately
      thereafter advise Lessor of such emergency and the nature and scope of the
      Material Structural Work commenced and shall obtain Lessor's approval of
      the remaining Material Structural Work to be completed.

            8.1.2 No Lessor Obligation.  Lessor shall not, under any
      circumstances, be required to build or rebuild any improvements on any
      Facility Property (or any private roadways, sidewalks or curbs appurtenant
      thereto), or to make any repairs, replacements, renovations, alterations,


                                      -49-
<PAGE>
      restorations, modifications, or renewals of any nature or description to
      any Facility Property (or any private roadways, sidewalks or curbs
      appurtenant thereto), whether ordinary or extraordinary, structural or
      non-structural, foreseen or unforeseen, or to make any expenditure
      whatsoever with respect thereto in connection with this Lease, or to
      maintain any Facility Property (or any private roadways, sidewalks or
      curbs appurtenant thereto) in any way.

            8.1.3 Lessee May Not Obligate Lessor.  Nothing contained herein nor
      any action or inaction by Lessor shall be construed as (a) constituting
      the consent or request of Lessor, express or implied, to any contractor,
      subcontractor, laborer, materialman or vendor to or for the performance of
      any labor or services for any construction, alteration, addition, repair
      or demolition of or to any portion of the Leased Property or (b) giving
      Lessee any right, power or permission to contract for or permit the
      performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or
      other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim
      against Lessor for the payment thereof or to make any agreement that may
      create, or in any way be the basis for, any right, title or interest in,
      or Lien or claim against, the estate of Lessor in any portion of the
      Leased Property.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
      right title and interest of Lessor in and to the Leased Property shall not
      be subject to liens or encumbrances for the performance of any labor or
      services or the furnishing of any materials or other property furnished to
      any Facility Property at or by the request of Lessee or any other Person
      other than Lessor.  Lessee shall notify any contractor, subcontractor,
      laborer, materialman or vendor providing any labor, services or materials
      to any Facility Property of this provision.  Lessee agrees to include the
      foregoing provisions of this Section 8.1.3 in any Notice of Commencement
      recorded under Chapter 1311 of the Ohio Revised Code with respect to any
      construction, alteration, repair, renovation or demolition of or to the
      Leased Property or labor, services or materials furnished to the Leased
      Property, contracted for by Lessee.

      8.2   Encroachments; Title Restrictions.  If any of the Leased
Improvements shall, at any time, encroach upon any property, street or
right-of-way adjacent to any portion of the Leased Property, or shall violate
the agreements or conditions contained in any lawful restrictive covenant or
other Lien now or hereafter affecting any portion of the Leased Property, or
shall impair the rights of others under any easement, right-of-way or other Lien
to which any portion of the Leased Property is now or hereafter subject, then
promptly upon the request of Lessor, Lessee shall, at its sole cost and expense,
subject to Lessee's right to contest the existence of any encroachment,
violation or impairment as set forth in Article 15, (a) obtain valid and
effective waivers or settlements of all claims, liabilities and damages
resulting from each such encroachment, violation or impairment or (b) make such
alterations to the Leased Improvements, and take such other actions, as Lessee
in the good faith exercise of its judgment deems reasonably practicable, to
remove such encroachment, or to end such violation or impairment, including, if
necessary, the alteration of any of the Leased Improvements.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Lessee shall, in any event, take all such actions as may be
reasonably necessary in order to be able to continue the operation of all of the
Leased Improvements for their Primary Intended Use substantially in the manner
and to the extent that the Leased Improvements were operated prior to the
assertion of such encroachment, violation or impairment as contemplated by this
Lease and the other Lease Documents and nothing contained herein shall limit
Lessee's obligations to operate each Facility in accordance with its Primary
Intended Use.  Any such alteration made pursuant to the terms of this Section
8.2 shall be completed in conformity with the applicable requirements of Section
8.1 and Article 9.  Lessee's obligations under this Section 8.2 shall be in
addition to and shall in no way discharge or diminish any obligation of any
insurer under any policy of title or other insurance.

                                    ARTICLE 9

                           MATERIAL STRUCTURAL WORK AND
                                CAPITAL ADDITIONS

      9.1   Lessor's Approval.  Without the prior written consent of Lessor,
which consent may be withheld by Lessor, in its sole and absolute discretion,
Lessee shall make no Capital Addition


                                      -51-
<PAGE>
or Material Structural Work to any portion of the Leased Property (including,
without limitation, any change in the size or unit capacity of any Facility),
except as may be otherwise expressly required pursuant to Article 8.

      9.2   General Provisions as to Capital Additions and Certain Material
Structural Work.  As to any Capital Addition or Material Structural Work (other
than such Material Structural Work that is required to be performed pursuant to
the terms of Section 8.1) for which Lessor has granted its prior written
approval, the following terms and conditions shall apply unless otherwise
expressly set forth in Lessor's written approval.

            9.2.1 No Liens.  Lessee shall not be permitted to create any Lien on
      all or any portion of the Leased Property in connection with any Capital
      Addition or Material Structural Work.

            9.2.2 Lessee's Proposal Regarding Capital Additions and Material
      Structural Work.  If Lessee desires to undertake any Capital Addition or
      Material Structural Work, Lessee shall submit to Lessor in writing a
      proposal setting forth in reasonable detail any proposed Capital Addition
      or Material Structural Work and shall provide to Lessor copies of, or
      information regarding, the applicable plans and specifications, Permits,
      Contracts and any other materials concerning the proposed Capital Addition
      or Material Structural Work, as the case may be, as Lessor may reasonably
      request.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each such
      proposal pertaining to any Capital Addition shall indicate the approximate
      projected cost of constructing such Capital Addition, the use or uses to
      which it will be put and a good faith estimate of the change, if any, in
      the gross revenues that Lessee anticipates will result from the
      construction of such Capital Addition.

            9.2.3 Lessor's Options Regarding Capital Additions and Material
      Structural Work.  Lessor shall have the options of:  (a) denying
      permission for the construction of the applicable Capital Addition or
      Material Structural Work, (b) offering to finance the construction of the
      Capital Addition or Material Structural Work pursuant to Section 9.3, (c)
      allowing Lessee to pay for or separately finance the construction of the
      Capital Addition or


                                      -52-
<PAGE>
      Material Structural Work, subject to compliance with the terms and
      conditions of Section 9.2.1, Section 9.4, Section 13.1, all Legal
      Requirements and all other requirements of this Lease and to such other
      terms and conditions as Lessor may in its discretion impose or (d) any
      combination of the foregoing. Unless Lessor notifies Lessee in writing of
      a contrary election within forty-five (45) days of Lessee's request,
      Lessor shall be deemed to have denied the request for the Capital Addition
      or Material Structural Work.

            9.2.4 Lessor May Elect to Finance Capital Additions or Material
      Structural Work.  If Lessor elects to offer financing for the proposed
      Capital Addition or Material Structural Work, the provisions of Section
      9.3 shall apply.

      9.3   Capital Additions and Material Structural Work Financed by Lessor.

            9.3.1 Lessee's Financing Request.  Lessee may request that Lessor
      provide or arrange financing for a Capital Addition or Material Structural
      Work by providing to Lessor such information about the Capital Addition or
      Material Structural Work as Lessor may reasonably request, including,
      without limitation, all information referred to in Section 9.2 above.
      Lessee understands, however, that Lessor shall be under no obligation to
      agree to such request.  Nevertheless, Lessor shall use reasonable efforts
      to notify Lessee, within forty-five (45) days of receipt of such
      information, as to whether Lessor will finance the proposed Capital
      Addition or Material Structural Work and, if so, the terms and conditions
      upon which it would do so, including the terms of any amendment to this
      Lease (including, without limitation, an increase in Base Rent based on
      Lessor's then existing terms and prevailing conditions to compensate
      Lessor for the additional funds advanced by it).  Lessee may withdraw its
      request by notice to Lessor at any time before such time as Lessee accepts
      Lessor's terms and conditions.  All advances of funds for any such
      financing shall be made in accordance with Lessor's then standard
      construction loan requirements and procedures, which may include, without
      limitation, the requirements and procedures applicable to Work under
      Section 13.1.

            9.3.2 Lessor's General Requirements.  If Lessor agrees to finance
      the proposed Capital Addition or Material Structural Work and Lessee
      accepts Lessor's proposal therefor, in addition to all other items which
      Lessor or any applicable Financing Party may reasonably require, Lessee
      shall provide to Lessor the following:

            the completion thereof or the applicable portion of the Facility
            upon the completion of the Material Structural Work in accordance
            with the Primary Intended Use and (ii) evidence satisfactory to
            Lessor and any applicable Financing Party that all Permits required
            for the construction and use of the Capital Addition or the
            applicable portion of the Facility have been obtained, are in full
            force and effect and are not subject to appeal, except only for
            those Permits which cannot in the normal course be obtained prior to
            commencement or completion of the construction; provided, that
            Lessor and any applicable Financing Party are furnished with
            reasonable evidence that the same will be available in the normal
            course of business without unusual condition;

                  (b)   prior to any advance of funds, an Officer's Certificate
            and, if requested, a certificate from Lessee's architect, setting

            recorded notice or memorandum thereof, duly executed and
            acknowledged, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
            Lessor, providing for any changes required by Lessor


                                      -54-
<PAGE>
            including, without limitation, changes in the Base Rent and the
            legal description of the Land;

                  (d)   upon payment therefor, a deed conveying to Lessor title
            to any land acquired for the purpose of constructing the Capital
            Addition or the applicable Material Structural Work ("Additional
            Land") free and clear of any Liens except those approved by Lessor;

                  (e)   upon completion of the Capital Addition or the Material

            the Leased Property satisfactory in form and substance to Lessor and
            any Financing Party (i) updating the same without any additional
            exception except as may be reasonably permitted by Lessor, (ii) if
            applicable, including the Additional Land in the premises covered by
            such title insurance policy and (iii) increasing the coverage
            thereof by an amount equal to any amount paid by Lessor for the
            Additional Land plus the Fair Market Value of the Capital Addition
            or the Fair Market Value of the Material Structural Work (except to
            the extent covered by the owner's policy of title insurance referred

                                      -55-
<PAGE>
            the Leased Property upon completion of the Capital Addition or the
            Material Structural Work exceeds the Fair Market Value of the Leased
            Property prior to the commencement of the construction of such
            Capital Addition or Material Structural Work by an amount not less
            than one hundred five percent (105%) of the Capital Addition Cost or
            the cost of the Material Structural Work; and

                  (i)   during or following the advancement of funds, prints of
            architectural and engineering drawings relating to the Capital

            policies (insuring Lessor and any applicable Financing Party with
            respect to the Leased Property) contemplated by subsection (f)
            above, opinions of counsel, appraisals, surveys, certified copies of
            duly adopted resolutions of the board of directors of Lessee
            authorizing the execution and delivery of the lease amendment and
            any other documents and instruments as may be reasonably required by
            Lessor and any applicable Financing Party.

            9.3.3 Payment of Costs.  By virtue of making a request to finance a
      Capital Addition or any Material Structural Work, whether or not such
      financing is actually consummated, Lessee shall be deemed to have agreed
      to pay, upon demand, all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Lessor
      and any Person participating with Lessor in any way in the financing of
      the Capital Addition or Material Structural Work, including, but not
      limited to (a) fees and expenses of their respective attorneys, (b) all
      photocopying expenses, if any, (c) the amount of any filing, registration
      and recording taxes and fees, (d) documentary stamp taxes and intangible
      taxes and (e) title insurance charges and appraisal fees.

      9.4   General Limitations.  Without in any way limiting Lessor's options
with respect to proposed Capital Additions or Material Structural Work:  (a) no
Capital Addition or Material Structural Work shall be completed that could, upon
completion, significantly alter the character or purpose or detract from the
value or operating efficiency of the Leased Property, or


                                      -56-
<PAGE>
significantly impair the revenue-producing capability of the Leased Property, or
adversely affect the ability of Lessee to comply with the terms of this Lease,
(b) no Capital Addition or Material Structural Work shall be completed which
would tie in or connect any Leased Improvements on the Leased Property with any
other improvements on property adjacent to any portion of the Leased Property
(and not part of the Land covered by this Lease) including, without limitation,
tie-ins of buildings or other structures or utilities, unless Lessee shall have
obtained the prior written approval of Lessor, which approval may be withheld in
Lessor's sole and absolute discretion and (c) all proposed Capital Additions and
Material Structural Work shall be architecturally integrated and consistent with
the Leased Property.

      9.5   Non-Capital Additions.  Lessee shall have the obligation and right
to make repairs, replacements and alterations which are not Capital Additions as
required by the other Sections of this Lease, but in so doing, Lessee shall
always comply with and satisfy the conditions of Section 9.4, mutatis,
mutandis.  Lessee shall have the right, from time to time, to make additions,
modifications or improvements to any Facility Property which do not constitute
Capital Additions or Material Structural Work as it may deem to be desirable or
necessary for its uses and purposes, subject to the same limits and conditions
imposed under Section 9.4.  The cost of any such repair, replacement,
alteration, addition, modification or improvement shall be paid by Lessee and
the results thereof shall be included under the terms of this Lease and become a
part of the Leased Property, without payment therefor by Lessor at any time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all such additions, modifications and
improvements which affect the structure of any of the Leased Improvements, or
which involve the expenditure of more than TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS
($25,000.00) per Facility, shall be undertaken only upon compliance with the
provisions of Section 13.1, all Legal Requirements and all other applicable
requirements of this Lease; provided, however, that in the event of a bona fide
emergency during which Lessee is unable to contact the appropriate
representatives of Lessor, Lessee may commence such additions, modifications and
improvements as may be necessary in order to address such emergency without
Lessor's prior approval, as long as Lessee immediately thereafter advises Lessor
of such emergency and the nature and scope of the additions, modifications and


                                      -57-
<PAGE>
improvements performed and obtains Lessor's approval of the remaining work to be
completed.

                          WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS

      10.1  Representations and Warranties.  Lessee hereby represents and
warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, Lessor that:

            10.1.1  Existence; Power; Qualification.

            Lessee is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
      standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.  Lessee has all
      requisite corporate power to own and operate its properties and to carry
      on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted and is
      duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each
      jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary or desirable in order
      to carry out its business as presently conducted and as proposed to be
      conducted.  As of the date of this Agreement, Lessee does not have any
      Subsidiaries and Lessee is not a member of any partnership or joint
      venture.  Attached hereto as EXHIBIT F is a true and correct list of all
      of the shareholders of Lessee and their respective ownership interests in
      Lessee.

            10.1.2 Valid and Binding. Lessee is duly authorized to make and
      enter into all of the Lease Documents to which Lessee is a party and to
      carry out the transactions contemplated therein. All of the Lease
      Documents to which Lessee is a party have been duly executed and delivered
      by Lessee, and each is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Lessee,
      enforceable in accordance with its terms.

            10.1.3 Single Purpose. Lessee is, and during the entire time that
      this Lease remains in force and effect shall be, engaged in no business,
      trade or activity other than the operation of each Facility for its
      Primary Intended Use. The fiscal year of Lessee and the Guarantor is the
      Fiscal Year.

<PAGE>
            10.1.4 No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance of the
      Lease Documents and the consummation of the transactions thereby
      contemplated shall not result in any breach of, or constitute a default
      under, or result in the acceleration of, or constitute an event which,
      with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, could result in
      default or acceleration of any obligation of any member of the Leasing
      Group under any of the Permits or Contracts or any other contract,
      mortgage, lien, lease, agreement, instrument, franchise, arbitration
      award, judgment, decree, bank loan or credit agreement, trust indenture or
      other instrument to which any member of the Leasing Group is a party or by
      which any member of the Leasing Group or the Leased Property may be bound
      or affected and do not violate or contravene any Legal Requirement.

            10.1.5 Consents and Approvals. Except as already obtained or filed,
      as the case may be, no consent or approval or other authorization of, or
      exemption by, or declaration or filing with, any Person and no waiver of
      any right by any Person is required to authorize or permit, or is
      otherwise required as a condition of the execution and delivery of any of
      the Lease Documents by any member of the Leasing Group and the performance
      of such member's obligations thereunder or as a condition to the validity
      (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by Lessor of the
      Lease Documents to which it is a party) and the first priority of any
      Liens granted under the Lease Documents, except the filing of the
      Financing Statements.

            10.1.6 No Liens or Insolvency Proceedings. Lessee is financially
      solvent and there are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings
      including, without limitation, outstanding federal or state tax liens,
      garnishments or insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, pending or, to the
      best of Lessee's knowledge and belief, threatened:

                  (a)   against or affecting Lessee, which if adversely resolved
            to Lessee, would materially adversely affect the ability of Lessee
            to perform its obligations under the Lease Documents;


                                      -59-
<PAGE>
                  (b)   against or affecting any portion of the Leased Property
            or the ownership, construction, development, maintenance,
            management, repair, use, occupancy, possession or  operation
            thereof; or

                  (c) which may involve or affect the validity, priority or
            enforceability of any of the Lease Documents, at law or in equity,
            or before or by any arbitrator or Governmental Authority.

            10.1.7 Commercial Acts. Lessee's performance of and compliance with
      the obligations and conditions set forth herein and in the other Lease
      Documents will constitute commercial acts done and performed for
      commercial purposes.

            10.1.8 Adequate Capital, Not Insolvent. After giving effect to the
      consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Lease Documents,
      Lessee:

                  (a) will be able to pay its debts as they become due;

                  (b) will have sufficient funds and capital to carry on its
            business as now conducted or as contemplated to be conducted (in
            accordance with the terms of the Lease Documents);

                  (c) will own property having a value both at fair valuation
            and at present fair saleable value greater than the amount required
            to pay its debts as they become due; and

                  (d) will not be rendered insolvent as determined by applicable
            law.

            10.1.9 No Affiliate Debt. Lessee has not created, incurred,
      guaranteed, endorsed, assumed or suffered to exist any liability (whether
      direct or contingent) for borrowed money from the Guarantor (or any of its
      Affiliates) or any Affiliate of Lessee that is not fully subordinated to
      the Lease Obligations pursuant to the Affiliated Party Subordination
      Agreement.

      all federal, state and local tax returns which are required to be filed as
      to which extensions are not currently in effect and have paid all taxes,
      assessments, impositions, fees and other governmental charges (including
      interest and penalties) which have become due pursuant to such returns or
      pursuant to any assessment or notice of tax claim or deficiency received
      by each such member of the Leasing Group. No tax liability has been
      asserted by the Internal Revenue Service against any member of the Leasing

                  (a) Except as set forth in Schedule 10.1.11 attached hereto,
            there is no action or investigation pending or, to the best
            knowledge and belief of Lessee, threatened, anticipated or
            contemplated (nor, to the knowledge of Lessee, is there any
            reasonable basis therefor) against or affecting all or any portion
            of the Leased Property or any member of the Leasing Group (or any
            Affiliate thereof) before any Governmental Authority, Accreditation
            Body or Third Party Payor which could prevent or hinder the
            consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or call into
            question the validity of any of the Lease Documents or any action
            taken or to be taken in connection with the transactions
            contemplated thereunder or which in any single case or in the
            aggregate might result in any material adverse change in the
            business, prospects, condition, affairs or operations of any member
            of the Leasing Group or the Leased Property (including, without
            limitation, any action to revoke, withdraw or suspend any Permit
            necessary or desirable for the operation of any Facility Property in
            accordance with its Primary Intended Use and any action to transfer
            or relocate any such Permit to a location other than any Facility
            Property) or any material impairment of the right or ability of any
            member of the Leasing Group to carry on

            which may materially adversely impact reimbursement to any member of
            the Leasing Group for services rendered to beneficiaries of Third
            Party Payor Programs.

                  (b)   Neither any Facility nor any member of the Leasing Group
            has received any notice of any claim, requirement or demand of any
            Governmental Authority, Accreditation Body, Third Party Payor or any
            insurance body having or claiming any licensing, certifying,
            supervising, evaluating or accrediting authority over any Facility
            Property to rework or redesign any Facility Property, its
            professional staff or its professional services, procedures or
            practices in any material respect or to provide additional
            furniture, fixtures, equipment or inventory or to otherwise take
            action so as to make any Facility Property conform to or comply with
            any Legal Requirement;

                  (c)   [Intentionally deleted]; and

                  (d)   Lessee has delivered or caused to be delivered to Lessor
            true and correct copies of all licenses, inspection surveys and
            accreditation reviews relating to any Facility Property, issued by
            any Governmental Authority or Accreditation Body during the most
            recent licensing period, together with all plans of correction
            relating thereto.

            10.1.12 Compliance with Legal and Other Requirements.

                  (a)   Lessee and the Leased Property and the ownership,
            construction, development, maintenance, management, repair, use,
            occupancy, possession and operation thereof comply with all
            applicable Legal Requirements and there is no claim of any violation
            thereof known to Lessee.  Without limiting the foregoing, Lessee has
            obtained all Permits that are necessary or desirable to operate each
            Facility in accordance with its Primary Intended Use and all such
            Permits are in full force and effect.

                  (b)   Except as previously delivered to Lessor pursuant to
            Section 10.1.11(d) hereof, there are no outstanding notices of
            deficiencies, notices of proposed action or orders of any kind
            relating to any portion of the Leased Property issued by any
            Governmental Authority, Accreditation Body or Third Party Payor
            requiring conformity to any of the Legal Requirements.

                  (c)   Each Facility is licensed by the appropriate
            Governmental Authority to operate in accordance with its Primary
            Intended Use.

            10.1.13     No Action By Governmental Authority.  There is no action
      pending or, to the best knowledge and belief of Lessee, recommended, by
      any Governmental Authority or Accreditation Body to revoke, repeal,
      cancel, modify, withdraw or suspend any Permit or Contract or to take any
      other action of any other type which could have a material adverse effect
      on any Facility Property.

            10.1.14     Property Matters.

                  (a)   The Leased Property is free and clear of agreements,
            covenants and Liens, except those agreements, covenants and Liens to
            which this Lease is expressly subject, whether presently existing,
            as are listed on EXHIBIT C or were listed on the UCC lien search
            results delivered to Lessor at or prior to the execution and
            delivery of this Lease (and were not required to be terminated as a
            condition of the execution and delivery of this Lease), or which may
            hereafter be created in accordance with the terms hereof
            (collectively referred to herein as the "Permitted Encumbrances");
            and Lessee shall warrant and defend Lessor's title to the Leased
            Property against any and all claims and demands of every kind and
            nature whatsoever;

                  (b)   There is no Condemnation or similar proceeding pending
            with respect to or affecting the Leased Property, and Lessee is not
            aware, to the best of Lessee's knowledge and belief, that any such
            proceeding is contemplated;



                                      -63-
<PAGE>
                  (c)   To the actual knowledge of Lessee, no part of the
            Collateral or the Leased Property has been damaged by any fire or
            other casualty;

            10.1.15 ERISA. No employee pension benefit plan maintained by any
      member of the Leasing Group has any accumulated funding deficiency within
      the meaning of the ERISA, nor does any member of the Leasing Group have
      any material liability to the PBGC established under ERISA (or any
      successor thereto) in connection with any employee pension benefit plan
      (or other class of benefit which the PBGC has elected to insure), and
      there have been no "reportable events" (not waived) or "prohibited

            employee, agent or other Person where either the payment or the
            purpose of such contribution, payment or gifts is illegal under the

      Investment will be used to purchase or carry any margin security or to
      extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any
      margin security or in any other manner which would involve a violation of
      any of the regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
      System. Lessee is not an "investment company" within the meaning of the

      of Lessee (showing, without limitation, all materials ordered and received
      and all disbursements, accounts payable and accounts receivable in
      connection with the operation of the Leased Property).

            11.4.5 Participation in Third Party Payor Programs. Lessee and each
      Sublessee shall participate in all Third Party Payor Programs (which would
      be participated in by a prudent operator in the good faith exercise of
      commercially reasonable business judgment), in accordance with all
      requirements thereof (including, without limitation, all applicable
      Provider Agreements), and shall remain eligible to participate in such
      Third Party Payor Programs, all as shall be necessary for the prudent
      operation of the Facility in the good faith exercise of commercially
      reasonable business judgment.

            11.4.6 Conduct of its Business. Lessee will maintain, and cause any
      Sublessee and any Manager to maintain, experienced and competent
      professional management with respect to its business and with respect to

      in the ordinary course, the operation of each Facility, and Lessee and any
      Sublessee shall not enter into any other business or venture during the
      Term or such time


                                      -75-
<PAGE>
      as Lessee or any Sublessee is in possession of the Leased Property.

            11.4.7 Address. Lessee shall provide Lessor thirty (30) days' prior
      written notice of any change of its Principal Place of Business from its
      current Principal Place of Business. Lessee shall maintain the Collateral,
      including without limitation, all books and records relating to its
      business, solely at its Principal Place of Business and at the Leased
      Property. Lessee shall not (a) remove the Collateral, including, without
      limitation, any books or records relating to Lessee's business from either
      the Leased Property or Lessee's Principal Place of Business or (b)
      relocate its Principal Place of Business until after receipt of a
      certificate from Lessor, signed by an officer thereof, stating that Lessor
      has, to its satisfaction, obtained all documentation that it deems
      necessary or desirable to obtain, maintain, perfect and confirm the first
      priority security interests granted in the Lease Documents.

            11.4.8 Subordination of Affiliate Transactions. Without limiting the
      provisions of any other Section of this Lease or the Affiliated Party
      Subordination Agreement, any payments to be made by Lessee to (a) any
      member of the Leasing Group (or any Affiliate of any member of the Leasing
      Group) or (b) any Affiliate of Lessee, in connection with any transaction
      between Lessee and such Person, including, without limitation, the
      purchase, sale or exchange of any property, the rendering of any service
      to or with any such Person (including, without limitation, all allocations
      of any so-called corporate or central office costs, expenses and charges
      of any kind or nature) or the making of any loan or other extension of
      credit or the making of any equity investment, shall be subordinate to the
      complete payment and performance of the Lease Obligations; provided,
      however, that all such subordinated payments may be paid at any time
      unless: (x) after giving effect to such payment, Lessee shall be unable to
      comply with any of its obligations under any of the Lease Documents or (y)
      a Lease Default has occurred and is continuing and has not been expressly
      waived in writing by Lessor or an event or state of facts exists, which,
      with


                                      -76-
<PAGE>
      the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a
      Lease Default.

            11.4.9 Inspection. At reasonable times and upon reasonable notice,
      Lessee shall permit Lessor and its authorized representatives (including,
      without limitation, the Consultants) to inspect the Leased Property as
      provided in Section 7.1 above.

            11.4.10 Additional Property. In the event that at any time during
      the Term, Lessee holds the fee title to or a leasehold interest in any
      real property and/or personal property which is used as an integral part
      of the operation of the Leased Property (but is not subject to this
      Lease), Lessee shall (i) provide Lessor with prior notice of such
      acquisition and (ii) shall take such actions and enter into such
      agreements as Lessor shall reasonably request in order to grant Lessor a
      first priority mortgage or other security interest in such real property
      and personal property, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances and
      other Liens reasonably acceptable to Lessor.

            11.4.11 Annual Facility Upgrade Expenditures. Commencing with the
      first Lease Year to occur in the Term, Lessee shall make an Annual
      Facility Upgrade Expenditure in each Facility in an amount no less than
      TWO HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS ($250) multiplied by the number of units in such
      Facility, such amount to be increased as of the first day of the third
      Lease Year, and as of the first day of each subsequent Lease Year, by an
      amount equal to the product of (i) TWO HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS ($250)
      multiplied by (ii) the Consumer Price Adjustment Factor. Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, Lessee may request Lessor to approve, which approval shall
      not be unreasonably withheld, that the Annual Facility Upgrade Expenditure
      be allocated among the Facilities on other than a per unit basis.

      11.5  Additional Negative Covenants.  Lessee covenants and agrees that,
throughout the Term and such time as Lessee remains in possession of the Leased
Property:

            11.5.1 Restrictions Relating to Lessee. Except as may otherwise be
      expressly provided in Section 19.4 or in any of the other Lease Documents,
      Lessee shall not, without the prior written consent of Lessor, in each
      instance,


                                      -77-
<PAGE>
      which consent may be withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of
      Lessor:

                  (a)   convey, assign, hypothecate, transfer, dispose of or
            encumber, or permit the conveyance, assignment, transfer,

            legal or beneficial interest in this Lease, its other assets or the
            Leased Property; provided, however, that this restriction shall not
            apply to (i) the Permitted Encumbrances that may be created after
            the date hereof pursuant to the Lease Documents; (ii) Liens created
            in accordance with Section 6.1.2 against Tangible Personal Property
            securing Indebtedness permitted under Section 11.3.1(vi) relating to
            equipment leasing or financing for the exclusive use of the Leased
            Property; (iii) the sale, conveyance, assignment, hypothecation,
            lease or other transfer of any material asset or assets (whether now
            owned or hereafter acquired), the fair market value of which equals
            or is less than THIRTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($35,000),
            individually, or ONE MILLION FOUR HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
            ($1,450,000) collectively; (iv) without limitation as to amount, the
            disposition in the ordinary course of business of any obsolete, worn
            out or defective fixtures, furnishings or equipment used in the
            operation of the Leased Property provided that the same are replaced
            with fixtures, furnishings or equipment of equal or greater utility
            or value or Lessee provides Lessor with an explanation (reasonably
            satisfactory to Lessor) as to why such fixtures, furnishings or
            equipment is no longer required in connection with the operation of
            the Leased Property; (v) without limitation as to amount, any sale
            of inventory by Lessee in the ordinary course of business; and (vi)

                  (b)   permit the use of any Facility for any purpose other
            than its Primary Intended Use; or

                                      -78-
<PAGE>
            11.5.2 No Liens. Lessee will not directly or indirectly create or
      allow to remain and will promptly discharge at its expense any Lien, title
      retention agreement or claim upon or against the Leased Property
      (including Lessee's interest therein) or Lessee's interest in this Lease
      or any of the other Lease Documents, or in respect of the Rent, excluding
      (a) this Lease and any permitted Subleases, (b) the Permitted
      Encumbrances, (c) Liens which are consented to in writing by Lessor, (d)
      Liens for those taxes of Lessor which Lessee is not required to pay

      payable or which are in the process of being contested in strict
      compliance with the terms and conditions of Article 15 and (h) involuntary
      Liens caused by the actions or omissions of Lessor.

            11.5.3 Limits on Affiliate Transactions. Lessee shall not enter into
      any transaction with any Affiliate, including, without limitation, the
      purchase, sale or exchange of any property, the rendering of any service
      to or with any Affiliate and the making of any loan or other extension of
      credit, except in the ordinary course of, and pursuant to the reasonable
      requirements of, Lessee's business and upon fair and reasonable terms no
      less favorable to Lessee than would be obtained in a comparable
      arms'-length transaction with any Person that is not an Affiliate.

            11.5.4 Non-Competition. Lessee acknowledges that upon and after any
      termination of this Lease, any competition by any member of the Leasing
      Group with any subsequent owner or subsequent lessee of the Leased
      Property (the "Purchaser") would cause irreparable harm to Lessor and any
      such Purchaser. To induce Lessor to enter into this Lease, Lessee agrees
      that, from and after the date hereof and thereafter until the fifth (5th)
      anniversary of the termination hereof, no member of the Leasing Group nor
      any Person holding or controlling, directly or indirectly, any interest in
      any member of the


                                      -79-
<PAGE>
      Leasing Group (collectively, the "Limited Parties") shall be involved in
      any capacity in or lend any of their names to or engage in any capacity in
      any adult care residence or other similar senior housing facility (or any
      facility included within the definition of Primary Intended Use), center,
      unit or program (or in any Person engaged in any such activity or any
      related activity competitive therewith), whether such competitive activity
      shall be as an officer, director, owner, employee, agent, advisor,
      independent contractor, developer, lender, sponsor, venture capitalist,
      administrator, manager, investor, partner, joint venturer, consultant or
      other participant in any capacity whatsoever with respect to an adult care
      residence or other similar senior housing facility (or any facility
      included within the definition of Primary Intended Use), center, unit or
      program located within a ten (10) mile radius of any Facility Property.

            Lessee hereby acknowledges and agrees that none of the time span,
      scope or area covered by the foregoing restrictive covenants is or are
      unreasonable and that it is the specific intent of Lessee that each and
      all of the restrictive covenants set forth hereinabove shall be valid and
      enforceable as specifically set forth herein.  Lessee further agrees that
      these restrictions are special, unique, extraordinary and reasonably
      necessary for the protection of Lessor and any Purchaser and that the
      violation of any such covenant by any of the Limited Parties would cause
      irreparable damage to Lessor and any Purchaser for which a legal remedy
      alone would not be sufficient to fully protect such parties.

            Therefore, in addition to and without limiting any other remedies
      available at law or hereunder, in the event that any of the Limited
      Parties breaches any of the restrictive covenants hereunder or shall
      threaten breach of any of such covenants, then Lessor and any Purchaser
      shall be entitled to obtain equitable remedies, including specific
      performance and injunctive relief, to prevent or otherwise restrain a
      breach of this Section 11.5.4 (without the necessity of posting a bond)
      and to recover any and all costs and expenses (including, without
      limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses and court costs) reasonably
      incurred in enforcing the provisions of this Section


                                      -80-
<PAGE>
      11.5.4. The existence of any claim or cause of action of any of the
      Limited Parties or any member of the Leasing Group against Lessor or any
      Purchaser, whether predicated on this Lease or otherwise, shall not
      constitute a defense to the enforcement by Lessor or any Purchaser of the
      foregoing restrictive covenants and the Limited Parties shall not defend
      on the basis that there is an adequate remedy at law.

            Without limiting any other provision of this Lease, the parties
      hereto acknowledge that the foregoing restrictive covenants are severable
      and separate.  If at any time any of the foregoing restrictive covenants
      shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable by a court having jurisdiction
      over this Lease, by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to duration,
      or geographic scope or scope of activities restricted, or for any other
      reason, such covenants shall be considered divisible as to such portion
      and such covenants shall be immediately amended and reformed to include
      only such covenants as are deemed reasonable and enforceable by the court
      having jurisdiction over this Lease to the full duration, geographic scope
      and scope of restrictive activities deemed reasonable and thus enforceable
      by said court; and the parties agree that such covenants as so amended and
      reformed, shall be valid and binding as through the invalid or
      unenforceable portion has not been included therein.

            The provisions of this Section 11.5.4 shall survive the termination
      of the Lease and any satisfaction of the Lease Obligations in connection
      therewith or subsequent thereto.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree
      that any Purchaser may enforce the provisions of this Section 11.5.4 as a
      third party beneficiary.

            11.5.5 No Default. Lessee shall not commit any default or breach
      under any of the Lease Documents.

            11.5.6 ERISA. Lessee shall not establish or permit any Sublessee to
      establish any new pension or defined benefit plan or modify any such
      existing plan for employees subject to ERISA, which plan provides any
      benefits based on past service without the advance consent of Lessor to
      the amount of the aggregate past service liability thereby created.


                                      -81-
<PAGE>
            11.5.7 Forgiveness of Indebtedness. Lessee will not waive, or permit
      any sublessee or Manager which is an Affiliate to waive any debt or claim,
      except in the ordinary course of its business.

            11.5.8 Value of Assets. Lessee will not write up (by creating an
      appraisal surplus or otherwise) the value of any assets of Lessee above
      their cost to Lessee, less the depreciation regularly allowable thereon.

            11.5.9 Changes in Fiscal Year and Accounting Procedures. Lessee
      shall not, without the prior written consent of Lessor, in each instance,
      which consent may be withheld in Lessor's reasonable discretion (a) change
      its fiscal year or capital structure or (b) change, alter, amend or in any
      manner modify, except in accordance with GAAP, any of its current
      accounting procedures related to the method of revenue recognition,
      billing procedures or determinations of doubtful accounts or bad debt
      expenses nor will Lessee permit any of its Subsidiaries to change its
      fiscal year or suffer or permit any circumstance to exist in which any
      Subsidiary is not wholly-owned, directly or indirectly, by Lessee.

      11.6  Access to Records.  To the extent required by applicable law, Lessor
shall (and, if Lessor carries out any of the duties under this Lease, whether on
Lessor's or Lessee's behalf, through a subcontract with a related organization
and such subcontract has a value or cost of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) or
more during any twelve (12) month period, such subcontract shall contain a
clause to the effect that the subcontractor shall) until the expiration of four
(4) years after the furnishing of services pursuant to this Lease, make
available, upon request by the Secretary of Health and Human Services or upon
the request by the U.S. Comptroller General, or any duly authorized
representative of either of them, the books, documents and records of Lessor (or
such subcontractor) that are necessary to verify the nature and extent of such
costs in connection with said services.

      by this Lease or the other Lease Documents shall be issued and
      underwritten by insurance companies licensed to do insurance business by,
      and in good standing under the laws of, the State and which companies have
      and maintain a rating of A:X or better by A.M. Best Co.

            12.1.3 Policy Requirements. Every policy of insurance from time to
      time required under this Lease or any of the other Lease Documents (other
      than worker's compensation) shall name Lessor as owner, loss payee,
      secured party (to the extent applicable) and additional named insured as
      its interests may appear. If an insurance policy covers properties other
      than the Leased Property, then Lessor shall be so named with respect only
      to the Leased Property. Each such policy, where applicable or appropriate,
      shall:

                  (a)   include an agreed amount endorsement and loss payee,
            additional named insured and secured party endorsements, in forms
            acceptable to Lessor in its sole and absolute discretion;

                  (b)   include mortgagee, secured party, loss payable and
            additional named insured endorsements reasonably acceptable to each
            Fee Mortgagee;

                  (c)   provide that the coverages may not be cancelled or
            materially modified except upon thirty


                                      -85-
<PAGE>
            (30) days' prior written notice to Lessor and any Fee Mortgagee;

                  (d)   be payable to Lessor and any Fee Mortgagee
            notwithstanding any defense or claim that the insurer may have to
            the payment of the same against any other Person holding any other
            interest in the Leased Property;

                  (e)   be endorsed with standard noncontributory clauses in
            favor of and in form reasonably acceptable to Lessor and any Fee
            Mortgagee;

                  (f)   expressly waive any right of subrogation on the part of
            the insurer against Lessor, any Fee Mortgagee or the Leasing Group;
            and

                  (g)   otherwise be in such forms as shall be reasonably
            acceptable to Lessor.

            12.1.4 Notices; Certificates and Policies. Lessee shall promptly
      provide to Lessor copies of any and all notices (including notice of
      non-renewal but excluding invoices for premiums due but not delinquent),
      claims and demands which Lessee receives from insurers of the Leased
      Property. At least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of any insurance
      policy required hereunder, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor certificates and
      evidence of insurance relating to all renewals and replacements thereof,
      together with evidence, satisfactory to Lessor, of payment of the premiums
      thereon. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor original counterparts or copies
      certified by the insurance company to be true and complete copies, of all
      insurance policies required hereunder not later than the earlier to occur
      of (a) thirty (30) days after the effective date of each such policy and
      (b) ten (10) days after receipt thereof by Lessee.

            12.1.5 Lessor's Right to Place Insurance. If Lessee shall fail to
      obtain any insurance policy required hereunder by Lessor, or shall fail to
      deliver the certificate and evidence of insurance relating to any such
      policy to Lessor, or if any insurance policy required hereunder (or any
      part thereof) shall expire or be cancelled or become void or voidable by
      reason of any


                                      -86-
<PAGE>
      breach of any condition thereof, or if Lessor determines that such
      insurance coverage is unsatisfactory by reason of the failure or
      impairment of the capital of any insurance company which wrote any such
      policy, upon demand by Lessor, Lessee shall promptly obtain new or
      additional insurance coverage on the Leased Property, or for those risks
      required to be insured by the provisions hereof, satisfactory to Lessor,
      and, at its option, Lessor may obtain such insurance and pay the premium
      or premiums therefor; in which event, any amount so paid or advanced by
      Lessor and all costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith
      (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses and court
      costs), shall be a demand obligation of Lessee to Lessor, payable as an
      Additional Charge.

            12.1.6 Payment of Proceeds. All insurance policies required
      hereunder (except for general public liability, professional liability and
      workers' compensation and employers liability insurance) shall provide
      that in the event of loss, injury or damage, subject to the rights of any
      Fee Mortgagee, all proceeds shall be paid to Lessor alone (rather than
      jointly to Lessee and Lessor). Lessor is hereby authorized to adjust and
      compromise any such loss with the consent of Lessee or, following any
      Lease Default, whether or not cured, without the consent of Lessee, and to
      collect and receive such proceeds in the name of Lessor and Lessee, and
      Lessee appoints Lessor (or any agent designated by Lessor) as Lessee's
      attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution, to endorse Lessee's name
      upon any check in payment thereof. Subject to the provisions of Article
      13, such insurance proceeds shall be applied first toward reimbursement of
      all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Lessor in collecting said
      insurance proceeds, then toward payment of the Lease Obligations or any
      portion thereof, then due and payable, in such order as Lessor determines,
      and then in whole or in part toward restoration, repair or reconstruction
      of the Leased Property for which such insurance proceeds shall have been
      paid.

            12.1.7 Irrevocable Power of Attorney. The power of attorney
      conferred on Lessor pursuant to the provisions of this Section 12.1, being
      coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable for as long as this Lease
      is in effect or any


                                      -87-
<PAGE>
      Lease Obligations are outstanding, shall not be affected by any disability
      or incapacity which Lessee may suffer and shall survive the same. Such
      power of attorney is provided solely to protect the interests of Lessor
      and shall not impose any duty on Lessor to exercise any such power, and
      neither Lessor nor such attorney-in-fact shall be liable for any act,
      omission, error in judgment or mistake of law, except as the same may
      result from its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

            12.1.8 Blanket Policies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
      contained herein, Lessee's obligations to carry the insurance provided for
      herein may be brought within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or
      policies of insurance carried and maintained by Lessee and its Affiliates;
      provided, however, that the coverage afforded to Lessor shall not be
      reduced or diminished or otherwise be different from that which would
      exist under a separate policy meeting all other requirements of this Lease
      by reason of the use of such blanket policy of insurance, and provided,
      further that the requirements of this Section 12.1 are otherwise
      satisfied.

            12.1.9 No Separate Insurance. Lessee shall not, on Lessee's own
      initiative or pursuant to the request or requirement of any other Person,
      take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the
      event of loss with the insurance required hereunder to be furnished by
      Lessee, or increase the amounts of any then existing insurance by securing
      an additional policy or additional policies, unless (a) all parties having
      an insurable interest in the subject matter of the insurance, including
      Lessor, are included therein as additional insureds and (b) losses are
      payable under said insurance in the same manner as losses are required to
      be payable under this Lease. Lessee shall immediately notify Lessor of the
      taking out of any such separate insurance or of the increasing of any of
      the amounts of the then existing insurance by securing an additional
      insurance policy or policies.

            12.1.10 Assignment of Unearned Premiums. Lessee hereby assigns to
      Lessor all rights of Lessee in and to any unearned premiums on any
      insurance policy required


                                      -88-
<PAGE>
      hereunder to be furnished by Lessee which may become payable or are
      refundable after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, which
      amounts may be utilized by Lessor for any purposes allowed hereunder or
      credited against the Lease Obligations. In the event that this Lease is
      terminated for any reason (other than the purchase of the Leased Property
      by Lessee), the insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder,
      including all right, title and interest of Lessee thereunder, shall become
      the absolute property of Lessor.

      12.2  Indemnity.

            12.2.1 Indemnification. Except with respect to the gross negligence
      or willful misconduct of Lessor or any of the other Indemnified Parties,
      as to which no indemnity is provided, Lessee hereby agrees to defend with
      counsel acceptable to Lessor, indemnify and hold harmless Lessor and each
      of the other Indemnified Parties from and against all damages, losses,
      claims, liabilities, obligations, penalties, causes of action, costs and
      expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, court costs and
      other expenses of litigation) suffered by, or claimed or asserted against,
      Lessor or any of the other Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly,
      based on, arising out of or resulting from (a) the use and occupancy of
      all or any portion of the Leased Property or any business conducted
      therein, (b) any act, fault, omission to act or misconduct by (i) any
      member of the Leasing Group, (ii) any Affiliate of Lessee or (iii) any
      employee, agent, licensee, business invitee, guest, customer, contractor
      or sublessee of any of the foregoing parties, relating to, directly or
      indirectly, all or any portion of the Leased Property, (c) any accident,
      injury or damage whatsoever caused to any Person, including, without
      limitation, any claim of malpractice, or to the property of any Person in
      or about any portion of the Leased Property or outside of the Leased
      Property where such accident, injury or damage results or is claimed to
      have resulted from any act, fault, omission to act or misconduct by any
      member of the Leasing Group or any Affiliate of Lessee or any employee,
      agent, licensee, contractor or sublessee of any of the foregoing parties,
      (d) any Lease Default, (e) any claim brought or threatened against any of
      the Indemnified Parties by any member of the


                                      -89-
<PAGE>
      Leasing Group or by any other Person on account of (i) Lessor's
      relationship with any member of the Leasing Group pertaining in any way to
      the Leased Property and/or the transaction evidenced by the Lease
      Documents and/or (ii) Lessor's negotiation of, entering into and/or
      performing any of its obligations and/or exercising any of its right and
      remedies under any of the Lease Documents, (f) any attempt by any member
      of the Leasing Group or any Affiliate of Lessee to transfer or relocate
      any of the Permits to any location other than the Leased Property and/or
      (g) the enforcement of this indemnity. Any amounts which become payable by
      Lessee under this Section 12.2.1 shall be a demand obligation of Lessee to
      Lessor, payable as an Additional Charge. The indemnity provided for in
      this Section 12.2.1 shall survive any termination of this Lease.

            12.2.2 Indemnified Parties. As used in this Lease the term
      "Indemnified Parties" shall mean the Meditrust Entities, any Fee Mortgagee
      and their respective successors, assigns, employees, servants, agents,
      attorneys, officers, directors, shareholders, partners and owners.

            12.2.3 Limitation on Lessor Liability. Neither Lessor nor any
      Affiliate of Lessor shall be liable to any member of the Leasing Group or
      any Affiliate of any member of the Leasing Group, or to any other Person
      whatsoever for any damage, injury, loss, compensation, or claim
      (including, but not limited to, any claim for the interruption of or loss
      to any business conducted on any portion of the Leased Property) based on,
      arising out of or resulting from any cause whatsoever, including, but not
      limited to, the following: (a) repairs to the Leased Property, (b)
      interruption in use of the Leased Property; (c) any accident or damage
      resulting from the use or operation of the Leased Property or any business
      conducted thereon; (d) the termination of this Lease by reason of Casualty
      or Condemnation, (e) any fire, theft or other casualty or crime, (f) the
      actions, omissions or misconduct of any other Person, (g) damage to any
      property, or (h) any damage from the flow or leaking of water, rain or
      snow. All Tangible Personal Property and the personal property of any
      other Person (including, without limitation, Lessor's


                                      -90-
<PAGE>
      Personal Property) on the Leased Property shall be at the sole risk of
      Lessee and Lessor shall not in any manner be held responsible therefor.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor shall not be released from liability
      for any injury, loss, damage or liability suffered directly by Lessee to
      the extent caused directly by the gross negligence or willful misconduct
      of Lessor, its servants, employees or agents acting within the scope of
      their authority on or about the Leased Property or in regards to the
      Lease; provided, however, that in no event shall Lessor, its servants,
      employees or agents have any liability based on any loss with respect to
      or interruption in the operation of any business at the Leased Property or
      for any indirect or consequential damages.

            12.2.4 Risk of Loss. During the Term of this Lease, the risk of loss
      or of decrease in the enjoyment and beneficial use of the Leased Property
      in consequence of any damage or destruction thereof by fire, the elements,
      casualties, thefts, riots, wars or otherwise, or in consequence of
      foreclosures, levies or executions of Liens (other than those created by
      Lessor in accordance with the provisions of Article 20) is assumed by
      Lessee and, in the absence of the gross negligence or willful misconduct
      as set forth in Section 12.2.3, Lessor shall in no event be answerable or
      accountable therefor (except for the obligation to account for insurance
      proceeds and Awards to the extent provided for in Articles 13 and 14) nor
      shall any of the events mentioned in this Section entitle Lessee to any
      abatement of Rent (except for an abatement, if any, as specifically
      provided for in Section 3.7).

                                    ARTICLE 13

                                FIRE AND CASUALTY

      13.1  Restoration Following Fire or Other Casualty.

            13.1.1 Following Fire or Casualty. In the event of any damage or
      destruction to any Facility by reason of fire or other hazard or casualty
      (a "Casualty"), Lessee shall give immediate written notice thereof to
      Lessor and, subject to the terms of this Article 13, Lessee shall proceed
      with reasonable diligence, in full compliance with all applicable Legal
      Requirements, to perform such repairs,


                                      -91-
<PAGE>
      replacement and reconstruction work (referred to herein as the "Work") to
      restore such Facility to the condition it was in immediately prior to such
      damage or destruction and to a condition adequate to operate the Facility
      for the Primary Intended Use and in compliance with Legal Requirements.
      All Work shall be performed and completed in accordance with all Legal
      Requirements and the other requirements of this Lease within one hundred
      eighty (180) days following the occurrence of the damage or destruction
      plus a reasonable time to compensate for Unavoidable Delays (including for
      the purposes of this Section, delays in obtaining Permits and in adjusting
      insurance losses), but in no event beyond three-hundred sixty-five (365)
      days following the occurrence of the Casualty.

            13.1.2 Procedures. In the event that any Casualty results in
      non-structural damage to any Facility in excess of TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND
      DOLLARS ($25,000) or in any structural damage to any Facility, regardless
      of the extent of such structural damage, prior to commencing the Work,
      Lessee shall comply with the following requirements:

                  (a)   Lessee shall furnish to Lessor complete plans and
            specifications for the Work (collectively, the "Plans and
            Specifications"), for Lessor's approval, in each instance, which
            approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.  The Plans and
            Specifications shall bear the signed approval thereof by an
            architect, licensed to do business in the State, reasonably
            satisfactory to Lessor and shall be accompanied by a written
            estimate from the architect, bearing the architect's seal, of the
            entire cost of completing the Work, and to the extent feasible, the
            Plans and Specifications shall provide for Work of such nature,
            quality and extent, that, upon the completion thereof, the Facility
            shall be at least equal in value and general utility to its value
            and general utility prior to the Casualty and shall be adequate to
            operate the Facility for the Primary Intended Use;

                  (b)   Lessee shall furnish to Lessor certified or photostatic
            copies of all Permits and Contracts required by all applicable Legal
            Requirements in


                                      -92-
<PAGE>
            connection with the commencement and conduct of the Work;

                  (c)   Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a cash deposit or a
            payment and performance bond sufficient to pay for completion of and
            payment for the Work in an amount not less than the architect's
            estimate of the entire cost of completing the Work, less the amount
            of property insurance proceeds, if any, then held by Lessor and
            which Lessor shall be required to apply toward restoration of the
            Leased Property as provided in Section 13.2;

                  (d)   Lessee shall furnish to Lessor such insurance with
            respect to the Work (in addition to the insurance required under
            Section 12.1 hereof) in such amounts and in such forms as is
            reasonably required by Lessor; and

                  (e)   Lessee shall not commence any of the Work until Lessee
            shall have complied with the requirements set forth in clauses (a)
            through (d) immediately above, as applicable, and, thereafter,
            Lessee shall perform the Work diligently, in a good and workmanlike
            fashion and in good faith in accordance with (i) the Plans and
            Specifications referred to in clause (a) immediately above, (ii) the
            Permits and Contracts referred to in clause (b) immediately above
            and (iii) all applicable Legal Requirements and other requirements
            of this Lease; provided, however, that in the event of a bona fide
            emergency during which Lessee is unable to contact the appropriate
            representatives of Lessor, Lessee may commence such Work as may be
            necessary in order to address such emergency without Lessor's prior
            approval, as long as Lessee immediately thereafter advises Lessor of
            such emergency and the nature and scope of the Work performed and
            obtains Lessor's approval of the remaining Work to be completed.

            13.1.3 Disbursement of Insurance Proceeds. If, as provided in
      Section 13.2, Lessor is required to apply any property insurance proceeds
      toward repair or restoration of the applicable Facility, then as long as
      the Work is being diligently performed by Lessee in accordance with the
      terms and conditions of this Lease, Lessor shall disburse such


                                      -93-
<PAGE>
      insurance proceeds from time to time during the course of the Work in
      accordance with and subject to satisfaction of the following provisions
      and conditions. Lessor shall not be required to make disbursements more
      often than at thirty (30) day intervals. Lessee shall submit a written
      request for each disbursement at least ten (10) Business Days in advance
      and shall comply with the following requirements in connection with each
      disbursement:

                  (a)   Prior to the commencement of any Work, Lessee shall have
            received Lessor's written approval of the Plans and Specifications
            (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and the Work
            shall be supervised by an experienced construction manager with the
            consultation of an architect or engineer qualified and licensed to
            do business in the State.

                  (b)   Each request for payment shall be accompanied by (x) a
            certificate of the architect or engineer, bearing the architect's or
            engineer's seal, and (y) a certificate of the general contractor,
            qualified and licensed to do business in the State, that is
            performing the Work (collectively, the "Work Certificates"), each
            dated not more than ten (10) days prior to the application for
            withdrawal of funds, and each stating:

                  (ii)  that the sum then requested to be withdrawn has been
                        paid by Lessee or is justly due to contractors,
                        subcontractors, materialmen, engineers, architects or
                        other Persons, whose names and addresses shall be stated
                        therein, who have rendered or furnished certain services
                        or materials for the Work, and the certificate shall
                        also include a brief description of such services and
                        materials and the principal subdivisions or categories
                        thereof and the respective amounts so paid or due to
                        each of said

                        of such certificate;

                  (iv)  that the remainder of the funds held by Lessor will be

                        in any previous or then pending application; and

                  (vi)  that, except for the amounts, if any, specified in the
                        applicable Work Certificate  to be due for services and
                        materials, there is no outstanding indebtedness known,
                        after due inquiry, which is then due and payable for
                        work, labor, services or materials in connection with
                        the Work which, if unpaid, might become the basis of a
                        vendor's, mechanic's, laborer's or materialman's
                        statutory or other similar Lien upon the applicable
                        Facility Property.

                  (c)   Lessee shall deliver to Lessor satisfactory evidence
            that the applicable Facility Property and all materials and all
            property described in the Work Certificates are free and clear of
            Liens, except (i) Liens, if any, securing indebtedness due to
            Persons (whose names and addresses and the several amounts due them
            shall be stated therein) specified in an applicable Work
            Certificate, which Liens shall be discharged upon disbursement of
            the funds then being requested, (ii) any Fee Mortgage and (iii) the
            Permitted Encumbrances.  Lessor shall accept as satisfactory
            evidence of the foregoing lien waivers in


                                      -95-
<PAGE>
            customary form from the general contractor and all subcontractors
            performing the Work, together with an endorsement of its title
            insurance policy (relating to the applicable Facility Property) in
            form acceptable to Lessor, dated as of the date of the making of the
            then current disbursement, confirming the foregoing.

                  (d)   If the Work involves alteration or restoration of the
            exterior of any Facility that changes the footprint of any Facility,
            Lessee shall deliver to Lessor, upon the request of Lessor, an
            "as-built" survey of the applicable Facility Property dated as of a
            date within ten (10) days prior to the making of the first and final
            advances (or revised to a date within ten (10) days prior to each
            such advance) showing no encroachments other than such
            encroachments, if any, by the applicable Facility Property upon or
            over the Permitted Encumbrances as are in existence as of the
            Commencement Date.

                  (e)   Lessee shall deliver to Lessor (i) an opinion of counsel
            (satisfactory to Lessor both as to counsel and as to the form of
            opinion) prior to the first advance opining that all necessary
            Permits for the repair, replacement and/or restoration of the
            applicable Facility have been obtained and that such Facility, if
            repaired, replaced or rebuilt in accordance, in all material
            respects, with the approved Plans and Specifications and such
            Permits, shall comply with all applicable Legal Requirements and
            (ii) an architect's certificate (satisfactory to Lessor both as to
            the architect and as to the form of the certificate) prior to the
            final advance, certifying that the applicable Facility was repaired,
            replaced or rebuilt in accordance, in all material respects, with
            the approved Plans and Specifications and complies with all
            applicable Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, all
            Permits referenced in the foregoing clause (i).

                  (f)   There shall be no Lease Default or any state of facts or
            circumstance existing which, with the giving of notice and/or the
            passage of time, would constitute any Lease Default.


                                      -96-
<PAGE>
      Lessor, at its option, may waive any of the foregoing requirements in
      whole or in part in any instance.  Upon compliance by Lessee with the
      foregoing requirements (except for such requirements, if any, as Lessor
      may have expressly elected to waive), and to the extent of (x) the
      insurance proceeds, if any, which Lessor may be required to apply to
      restoration of the applicable Facility pursuant to the provisions of this
      Lease and (y) all other cash deposits made by Lessee, Lessor shall make
      available for payment to the Persons named in the Work Certificate the
      respective amounts stated in said certificate(s) to be due, subject to a
      retention of ten percent (10%) as to all hard costs of the Work (the
      "Retainage").  It is understood that the Retainage is intended to provide
      a contingency fund to assure Lessor that the Work shall be fully completed
      in accordance with the Plans and Specifications and the requirements of
      Lessor.  Upon the full and final completion of all of the Work in
      accordance with the provisions hereof, the Retainage shall be made
      available for payment to those Persons entitled thereto.

      Upon completion of the Work, and as a condition precedent to making any
      further advance, in addition to the requirements set forth above, Lessee
      shall promptly deliver to Lessor:

            (i)   written certificates of the architect or engineer, bearing the
                  architect's or engineer's seal, and the general contractor,
                  certifying that the Work has been fully completed in a good
                  and workmanlike manner in material compliance with the Plans
                  and Specifications and all Legal Requirements;

            (ii)  an endorsement of its title insurance policy (relating to the
                  applicable Facility Property) in form reasonably acceptable to
                  Lessor insuring such Facility Property against all mechanic's
                  and materialman's liens accompanied by the final lien waivers
                  from the general contractor and all subcontractors;

            (iii) a certificate by Lessee in form and substance reasonably
                  satisfactory to Lessor, listing all costs and expenses in
                  connection with the


                                      -97-
<PAGE>
                  completion of the Work and the amount paid by Lessee with
                  respect to the Work; and

            (iv)  a temporary certificate of occupancy (if obtainable) and all
                  other applicable Permits and Contracts (that have not
                  previously been delivered to Lessor) issued by or entered into
                  with any Governmental Authority with respect to the applicable
                  Facility and its Primary Intended Use and by the appropriate
                  Board of Fire Underwriters or other similar bodies acting in
                  and for the locality in which such Facility is situated;
                  provided, that within thirty (30) days after completion of the
                  Work, Lessee shall obtain and deliver to Lessor a permanent
                  certificate of occupancy for such Facility.

            Upon completion of the Work and delivery of the documents required
      pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13.1, Lessor shall pay the
      Retainage to Lessee or to those Persons entitled thereto and if there
      shall be insurance proceeds or cash deposits, other than the Retainage,
      held by Lessor in excess of the amounts disbursed pursuant to the
      foregoing provisions, then provided that no Lease Default has occurred and
      is continuing, nor any state of facts or circumstances which, with the
      giving of notice and/or the passage of time would constitute a Lease
      Default, Lessor shall pay over such proceeds or cash deposits to Lessee.

            No inspections or any approvals of the Work during or after
      construction shall constitute a warranty or representation by Lessor, or
      any of its agents or Consultants, as to the technical sufficiency,
      adequacy or safety of any structure or any of its component parts,
      including, without limitation, any fixtures, equipment or furnishings, or
      as to the subsoil conditions or any other physical condition or feature
      pertaining to the applicable Facility Property.  All acts, including any
      failure to act, relating to Lessor are performed solely for the benefit of
      Lessor to assure the payment and performance of the Lease Obligations and
      are not for the benefit of Lessee or the benefit of any other Person.

      13.2  Disposition of Insurance Proceeds.


                                      -98-
<PAGE>
            13.2.1 Proceeds To Be Released to Pay For Work. In the event of any
      Casualty, except as provided for in Section 13.2.2, Lessor shall release
      proceeds of property insurance held by it to pay for the Work in
      accordance with the provisions and procedures set forth in this Article
      13, only if:

                  (a)   all of the terms, conditions and provisions of Sections
            13.1 and 13.2.1 are satisfied;

                  (b)   there does not then exist any Lease Default or any state
            of facts or circumstance which, with the giving of notice and/or the
            passage of time, would constitute such a Lease Default;

                  (c)   Lessee demonstrates to Lessor's satisfaction that Lessee
            has the financial ability to satisfy the Lease Obligations during
            such repair or restoration; and

                  (d)   no Sublease (excluding Residence Agreements) material to
            the operation of the applicable Facility immediately prior to such
            damage or taking shall have been cancelled or terminated, nor
            contain any still exercisable right to cancel or terminate, due to
            such Casualty if and to the extent that the income from such
            Sublease is necessary in order to avoid the creation of an Event of
            Default.

            13.2.2 Proceeds Not To Be Released. If, as the result of any
      Casualty, any Facility is damaged to the extent it is rendered Unsuitable
      For Its Primary Intended Use and if either: (a) Lessee, after exercise of
      diligent efforts, cannot within a reasonable time (not in excess of ninety
      (90) days) obtain all necessary Permits in order to be able to perform all
      required Work and to again operate the Facility for its Primary Intended
      Use within three hundred sixty-five (365) days from the occurrence of the
      damage or destruction in substantially the manner as immediately prior to
      such damage or destruction or (b) such Casualty occurs during the last
      twenty-four (24) months of the Term and would reasonably require more than
      nine (9) months to obtain all Permits and complete the Work, then Lessee
      may, in lieu of its restoration obligations set forth in this Article 13
      acquire the applicable Facility


                                      -99-
<PAGE>
      Property from Lessor for a purchase price equal to the greater of (i) the
      Allocated Meditrust Investment with respect to such Facility or (ii) the
      Fair Market Value of the Facility minus the Fair Market Added Value of the
      Facility, with the Fair Market Value of the Facility and the Fair Market
      Added Value to be determined as of the day immediately prior to such
      Casualty and prior to any other Casualty which has not been fully
      repaired, restored or replaced, in which event, Lessee shall be entitled
      upon payment of the full purchase price to receive all property insurance
      proceeds (less any costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in collecting the
      same). Any acquisition of any Facility Property pursuant to the terms of
      this Section 13.2.2 shall be consummated in accordance with the provisions
      of Article 18, mutatis, mutandis. If such termination becomes effective,
      Lessor shall assign to Lessee any outstanding insurance claims.

            13.2.3 Lessee Responsible for Short-Fall. If the cost of the Work
      exceeds the amount of proceeds received by Lessor from the property
      insurance required under Article 12 (net of costs and expenses incurred by
      Lessor in collecting the same), Lessee shall be obligated to contribute
      any excess amount needed to repair or restore the Leased Property and pay
      for the Work. Such amount shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor together with
      any other property insurance proceeds for application to the cost of the
      Work.

      13.3  Tangible Personal Property.  All insurance proceeds payable by
reason of any loss of or damage to any of the Tangible Personal Property shall
be paid to Lessor as secured party, subject to the rights of the holders of any
Permitted Prior Security Interests, and, thereafter, provided that no Lease
Default, nor any fact or circumstance which with the giving of notice and/or the
passage of time could constitute a Lease Default, has occurred and is
continuing, Lessor shall pay such insurance proceeds to Lessee to reimburse
Lessee for the cost of repairing or replacing the damaged Tangible Personal
Property, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the other provisions
of this Article 13, mutatis mutandis.

      13.4  Restoration of Certain Improvements and the Tangible Personal
Property.  If Lessee is required or elects to restore


                                     -100-
<PAGE>
the applicable Facility, Lessee shall either (a) restore (i) all alterations and
improvements to such Facility made by Lessee and (ii) the Tangible Personal
Property or (b) replace such alterations and improvements and the Tangible
Personal Property with improvements or items of the same or better quality and
utility in the operation of such Facility.

      13.5  No Abatement of Rent.  In no event shall any Rent abate as a result
of any Casualty.

      13.6  Intentionally deleted.

      13.7  Waiver.  Lessee hereby waives any statutory rights of termination
which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction to the Leased Property
due to any Casualty which Lessee is obligated to restore or may restore under
any of the provisions of this Lease.

      13.8  Application of Rent Loss and/or Business Interruption Insurance.
All proceeds of rent loss and/or business interruption insurance (collectively,
"Rent Insurance Proceeds") shall be paid to Lessor and dealt with as follows:

            (a)   if the Work has been promptly and diligently commenced by
      Lessee and is in the process of being completed in accordance with this
      Lease and no fact or condition exists which constitutes, or which with the
      giving of notice and/or the passage of time would constitute, a Lease
      Default, Lessor shall each month pay to Lessee out of the Rent Insurance
      Proceeds a sum equal to that amount, if any, of the Rent Insurance
      Proceeds paid by the insurer which is allocable to the rental loss and/or
      business interruption for the preceding month minus an amount equal to the
      sum of the Rent due hereunder for such month plus any Impositions relating
      to the applicable Facility Property then due and payable;

            (b)   if the Work has not been promptly and diligently commenced by
      Lessee or is not in the process of being completed in accordance with this
      Lease, the Rent Insurance Proceeds shall be applied to any Rent then due,
      and, to the extent sufficient therefor, an amount equal to Base Rent,
      Impositions and insurance premiums payable for the next twelve (12)
      months, as reasonably projected by Lessor, shall


                                     -101-
<PAGE>
      be held by Lessor as security for the Lease Obligations and applied to the
      payment of Rent as it becomes due; and

            (c)   if such Rent Insurance Proceeds received by Lessor (net of
      costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in collecting the same) exceed the
      amounts required under clauses (a) and (b) above, the excess shall be paid
      to Lessee, provided no fact or circumstance exists which constitutes, or
      with notice, or passage of time, or both, would constitute, a Lease
      Default.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor may at its option use or release the Rent
Insurance Proceeds to pay for the Work and, if a Lease Default exists, Lessor
may apply all such insurance proceeds towards the Lease Obligations or hold such
proceeds as security therefor.

      13.9  Obligation To Account.  Upon Lessee's written request, which may not
be made not more than once in any three (3) month period, Lessor shall provide
Lessee with a  written accounting of the application of all insurance proceeds
received by Lessor.

                                   ARTICLE 14

                                   CONDEMNATION

      14.1 Parties' Rights and Obligations. If during the Term there is any
Taking of all or any part of a Facility Property or any interest in this Lease,
the rights and obligations of the parties shall be determined by this Article
14.

      14.2  Total Taking.  If there is a permanent Taking of all or
substantially all of a Facility Property, this Lease shall terminate on the Date
of Taking with respect to such Facility Property only.  Upon such termination,
the Meditrust Investment shall be reduced by the Allocated Meditrust Investment
for such Facility Property and Rent hereunder shall be reduced accordingly
unless there is only one Facility Property subject to this Lease at the time of
such permanent Taking, in which case the Lease will terminate.

      14.3  Partial or Temporary Taking.  If there is a Permanent Taking of a
portion of any Facility Property, or if there is a temporary Taking of all or a
portion of any Facility Property, this Lease shall remain in effect with respect
to such


                                     -102-
<PAGE>
Facility Property so long as the applicable Facility is not thereby rendered
permanently Unsuitable For Its Primary Intended Use or temporarily Unsuitable
For Its Primary Intended Use for a period not likely to, or which does not,
exceed three hundred sixty-five (365) days. If, however, such Facility is
thereby so rendered permanently or temporarily Unsuitable For Its Primary
Intended Use: (a) Lessee shall have the right to restore the applicable Facility
Property, at its own expense, (subject to the right under certain circumstances
as provided for in Section 14.5 to receive the net proceeds of an Award for
reimbursement) to the extent possible, to substantially the same condition as
existed immediately before the partial or temporary Taking or (b) Lessee shall
have the right to acquire the applicable Facility Property from Lessor (i) upon
payment of all Rent due through the date that the purchase price is paid, for a
purchase price equal to the greater of (x) the Allocated Meditrust Investment of
such Facility Property or (y) the Fair Market Value of the Facility minus the
Fair Market Added Value of such Facility, with the Fair Market Value of the
Facility and the Fair Market Added Value to be determined as of the day
immediately prior to such partial or temporary Taking and (ii) in accordance
with the terms and conditions set forth in Article 18; in which event, this
Lease shall terminate with respect to the applicable Facility Property only upon
payment of such purchase price and the consummation of such acquisition.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor may overrule Lessee's election under
clause (a) or (b) and instead either (1) terminate this Lease with respect to
the applicable Facility Property only as of the date when Lessee is required to
surrender possession of the portion of such Facility so taken or (2) compel
Lessee to keep the Lease in full force and effect and to restore the applicable
Facility Property as provided in clause (a) above, but only if the applicable
Facility may be operated for at least eighty percent (80%) of the licensed unit
capacity of such Facility if operated in accordance with its Primary Intended
Use. Lessee shall exercise its election under this Section 14.3 by giving Lessor
notice thereof ("Lessee's Election Notice") within sixty (60) days after Lessee
receives notice of the Taking. Lessor shall exercise its option to overrule
Lessee's election under this Section 14.3 by giving Lessee notice of Lessor's
exercise of its rights under Section 14.3 within thirty (30) days after Lessor
receives Lessee's Election Notice. If, as the result of any such partial or
temporary Taking, this Lease is not terminated as provided


                                     -103-
<PAGE>
above, Lessee shall be entitled to an abatement of Rent, but only to the extent,
if any, provided for in Section 3.7, effective as of the date upon which the
applicable Facility is rendered Unsuitable For Its Primary Intended Use.

      14.4  Restoration.  If there is a partial or temporary Taking of a
Facility Property and this Lease is not terminated with respect to such Facility
Property pursuant to Section 14.3, Lessee shall accomplish all necessary
restoration and Lessor shall release the net proceeds of such Award to reimburse
Lessee for the actual reasonable costs and expenses thereof, subject to all of
the conditions and provisions set forth in Article 13 as though the Taking were
a Casualty and the Award were insurance proceeds.  If the cost of the
restoration exceeds the amount of the Award (net of costs and expenses incurred
in obtaining the Award), Lessee shall be obligated to contribute any excess
amount needed to restore the Facility or pay for such costs and expenses.  To
the extent that the cost of restoration is less than the amount of the Award
(net of cost and expenses incurred in obtaining the Award), the remainder of the
Award shall be retained by Lessor and Rent shall be abated as set forth in
Section 3.7.

      14.5  Award Distribution.  In the event Lessee completes the purchase of
any Facility Property, as described in Section 14.3, the entire Award shall,
upon payment of the purchase price and all Rent and other sums due under this
Lease and the other Lease Documents, belong to Lessee and Lessor agrees to
assign to Lessee all of Lessor's rights thereto.  In any other event, the entire
Award shall belong to and be paid to Lessor.

      14.6  Control of Proceedings.  Subject to the rights of any Fee Mortgagee,
unless and until Lessee completes the purchase of a Facility Property as
provided in Section 14.3, all proceedings involving any Taking and the
prosecution of claims arising out of any Taking against the Condemnor shall be
conducted, prosecuted and settled by Lessor; provided, however, that Lessor
shall keep Lessee apprised of the progress of all such proceedings and shall
solicit Lessee's advice with respect thereto and shall give due consideration to
any such advice.  In addition, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor (as an Additional
Charge) for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
appraisal fees, fees of expert witnesses and costs of litigation or dispute
resolution, in relation to any


                                     -104-
<PAGE>
Taking, whether or not this Lease is terminated with respect to a Facility
Property; provided, however, if this Lease is terminated with respect to a
Facility Property as a result of a Taking, Lessee's obligation to so reimburse
Lessor shall be diminished by the amount of the Award, if any, received by
Lessor which is in excess of the Allocated Meditrust Investment.

                                    ARTICLE 15

                                PERMITTED CONTESTS

      15.1  Lessee's Right to Contest.  To the extent of the express references
made to this Article 15 in other Sections of this Lease, Lessee, any Sublessee
or any Manager on their own or on Lessor's behalf (or in Lessor's name), but at
their sole cost and expense, may contest, by appropriate legal proceedings
conducted in good faith and with due diligence (until the resolution thereof),
the amount, validity or application, in whole or in part, of any Imposition,
Legal Requirement, the decision of any Governmental Authority related to the
operation of any Facility Property for its Primary Intended Use or any Lien or
claim relating to the Leased Property not otherwise permitted by this Agreement;
provided, that (a) prior written notice of such contest is given to Lessor, (b)
in the case of an unpaid Imposition, Lien or claim, the commencement and
continuation of such proceedings shall suspend the collection thereof from
Lessor and/or compliance by any applicable member of the Leasing Group with the
contested Legal Requirement or other matter may be legally delayed pending the
prosecution of any such proceeding without the occurrence or creation of any
Lien, charge or liability of any kind against all or any portion of the Leased
Property, (c) no portion of the Leased Property nor any rent therefrom would be
in any immediate danger of being sold, forfeited, attached or lost as a result
of such proceeding, (d) in the case of a Legal Requirement, neither Lessor nor
any member of the Leasing Group would be in any immediate danger of civil or
criminal liability for failure to comply therewith pending the outcome of such
proceedings, (e) in the event that any such contest shall involve a sum of money
or potential loss in excess of TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($10,000), Lessee shall
deliver to Lessor an Officer's Certificate and opinion of counsel, if Lessor
deems the delivery of an opinion to be appropriate, certifying or opining, as
the case may be, as to the validity of the statements set forth to the effect
set


                                     -105-

forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d), to the extent applicable, (f) Lessee shall
give such cash security as may be demanded in good faith by Lessor to insure
ultimate payment of any fine, penalty, interest or cost and to prevent any sale
or forfeiture of the affected portion of the Leased Property by reason of such
non-payment or non-compliance, (g) if such contest is finally resolved against
Lessor or any member of the Leasing Group, Lessee shall promptly pay, as
Additional Charges due hereunder, the amount required to be paid, together with
all interest and penalties accrued thereon and/or comply (and cause any
Sublessee and any Manager to comply) with the applicable Legal Requirement, and
(h) no state of facts or circumstance exists which constitutes, or with the
passage of time and/or the giving of notice, could constitute a Lease Default;
provided, however, the provisions of this Article 15 shall not be construed to
permit Lessee to contest the payment of Rent or any other sums payable by Lessee
to Lessor under any of the Lease Documents.

      15.2  Lessor's Cooperation.  Lessor, at Lessee's sole cost and expense,
shall execute and deliver to Lessee such authorizations and other documents as
may reasonably be required in any such contest, so long as the same does not
expose Lessor to any civil or criminal liability, and, if reasonably requested
by Lessee or if Lessor so desires, Lessor shall join as a party therein.

      15.3  Lessee's Indemnity.  Lessee, as more particularly provided for in
Section 12.2, shall indemnify, defend (with counsel acceptable to Lessor) and
save Lessor harmless against any liability, cost or expense of any kind,
including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses that may be imposed
upon Lessor in connection with any such contest and any loss resulting therefrom
and in the enforcement of this indemnification.

      Lessor to Lessee, (ii) Lessee continuously prosecutes such cure to
      completion, (iii) such cure is completed within ninety (90) days after the
      giving of such notice by Lessor to Lessee and (iv) such Failure to Perform

      Leased Property or otherwise impair the Collateral or Lessor's security
      interest therein;

            (c)   the occurrence of any default or breach of condition
      continuing beyond the expiration of the applicable notice and grace
      periods, if any, under any of the other Lease Documents;

            (d)   if any representation, warranty or statement contained herein
      or in any of the other Lease Documents proves to be untrue in any material
      respect as of the date when made or at any time during the Term if such
      representation or warranty, other than the representations and warranties
      contained in Section 10.1.6, is a continuing representation or warranty
      pursuant to Section 10.2;

            (e)   if any representation or warranty contained in Section 10.1.16
      proves to be untrue in any material respect at any time during the Term
      and remains untrue for thirty (30) days after the date such representation
      or warranty proved to be untrue; except as to matters not susceptible to

            ii.   all or any portion of the interest of any partner or member of
                  any member of the Leasing Group shall be, on any one or more

            iv.   all or any portion of the beneficial interest in any member of
                  the Leasing Group shall be, directly or indirectly, sold or

            (k)   except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 19.2 hereof,
      if, without the prior written consent of Lessor, in each instance, which
      consent may be withheld by Lessor in its sole and absolute discretion,
      Lessee's or any Sublessee's interest in the Leased Property shall be,

                                     -109-
<PAGE>
      creditor or obligee elects to declare the obligations of Lessee or the
      applicable Sublessee under the applicable agreement due and payable or to
      exercise any other right or remedy available to such creditor or obligee,
      if such creditor's or obligee's rights and remedies may involve or result
      in (i) the taking of possession of any portion of the Leased Property or
      (ii) the assertion of any other right or remedy that, in Lessor's
      reasonable opinion, may impair Lessee's ability punctually to perform all
      of its obligations under this Lease and the other Lease Documents, may
      impair such Sublessee's ability punctually to perform all of its
      obligations under its Sublease or may materially impair Lessor's security
      for the Lease Obligations; provided, however, that in any event, the
      election by the applicable creditor or obligee to declare the obligations
      of Lessee under the applicable agreement due and payable or to exercise
      any other right or remedy available to such creditor or obligee shall be
      an Event of Default hereunder only if such obligations, individually or in
      the aggregate, are in excess of FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($500,000);

            (m)   the occurrence of a Related Party Default;

            (n)   the occurrence of any default or breach of condition
      continuing beyond the expiration of the applicable notice and grace

      agreement establishing a major line of credit (or any documents executed
      in connection with such lines of credit) on behalf of any member of the
      Leasing Group whether or not the applicable creditor has elected to
      declare the indebtedness due and payable under such line of credit or to
      exercise any other right or remedy available to it.  For the purposes of
      this provision, a major line of credit shall mean and include any line of
      credit established in an amount equal to or greater than ONE MILLION
      DOLLARS ($1,000,000);

            (o)   except as a result of Casualty or a partial or complete
      Condemnation, if Lessee or any Sublessee ceases operation of any Facility
      for a period in excess of thirty (30) days;

            (p)   if one or more judgments against Lessee or any Sublessee or
      attachments against Lessee's interest or any Sublessee's interest in the

                                     -110-
<PAGE>
      aggregate exceed ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($100,000) or which may
      materially and adversely interfere with the operation of any Facility,
      remain unpaid, unstayed on appeal, undischarged, unbonded or undismissed
      for a period of thirty (30) days;

            (q)   if any malpractice award or judgment exceeding any applicable
      professional liability insurance coverage by more than FIVE HUNDRED
      THOUSAND DOLLARS ($500,000) shall be rendered against any member of the
      Leasing Group and either (i) enforcement proceedings shall have been
      commenced by any creditor upon such award or judgment or (ii) such award
      or judgment shall continue unsatisfied and in effect for a period of ten
      (10) consecutive days without an insurance company satisfactory to Lessor
      (in its sole and absolute discretion) having agreed to fund such award or
      judgment in a manner satisfactory to Lessor (in its sole and absolute
      discretion) and in either case such award or judgment shall, in the
      reasonable opinion of Lessor, have a material adverse affect on the
      ability of any member of the Leasing Group to operate any Facility;

            (r)   if any Provider Agreement material to the operation or
      financial condition of any member of the Leasing Group shall be terminated
      prior to the expiration of the term thereof or, without the prior written
      consent of Lessor, in each instance, which consent may be withheld in
      Lessor's reasonable discretion, shall not be renewed or extended upon the
      expiration of the stated term thereof;

            (s)   if, after Lessee or any Sublessee has obtained approval for
      participation in the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs with regard to the
      operation of a Facility, a final unappealable determination is made by the
      applicable Governmental Authority that Lessee or any Sublessee shall have
      failed to comply with applicable Medicare and/or Medicaid regulations in
      the operation of such Facility, as a result of which failure Lessee or
      such Sublessee is declared ineligible to continue its participation in the
      Medicare and/or Medicaid programs;

            (t)   if any member of the Leasing Group receives notice of a final
      unappealable determination by applicable Governmental Authorities of the
      revocation of any Permit required for the lawful construction or operation
      of any


                                     -111-
<PAGE>
      Facility in accordance with the Primary Intended Use or the loss of any
      Permit under any other circumstances under which any member of the Leasing
      Group is required to cease the operation of any Facility in accordance
      with the Primary Intended Use;

            (u)   any failure to maintain the insurance required pursuant to
      Section 12 of this Lease in force and effect at all times until the Lease
      Obligations are fully paid and performed;

            (v)   the appointment of a temporary manager (or operator) for any
      Facility Property by any Governmental Authority; or

            (w)   the entry of an order by a court with jurisdiction over the
      Leased Property to close any Facility, to transfer one or more residents
      from any Facility as a result of a finding or determination of abuse or
      neglect or to take any action to eliminate an emergency situation then
      existing at any Facility.

      16.2  Remedies.

      (a)   If any Lease Default shall have occurred, Lessor may at its option
terminate this Lease by giving Lessee not less than ten (10) days' notice of
such termination, or exercise any one or more of its rights and remedies under
this Lease or any of the other Lease Documents, or as available at law or in
equity and upon the expiration of the time fixed in such notice, the Term shall
terminate (but only if Lessor shall have specifically elected by a written
notice to so terminate the Lease) and all rights of Lessee under this Lease
shall cease.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Lessee's failure to
pay Rent, if such Rent remains unpaid beyond ten (10) days from the due date
thereof, Lessor shall not be obligated to give ten (10) days notice of such
termination or exercise of any of its other rights and remedies under this
Lease, or the other Lease Documents, or otherwise available at law or in equity,
and Lessor shall be at liberty to pursue any one or more of such rights or
remedies without further notice.  No taking of possession of the Leased Property
by or on behalf of  Lessor, and no other act done by or on behalf of Lessor,
shall constitute an acceptance of surrender of the Leased Property by Lessee or
reduce Lessee's obligations under this Lease or the


                                     -112-
<PAGE>
other Lease Documents, unless otherwise expressly agreed to in a written
document signed by an authorized officer or agent of Lessor.

      (b)   To the extent permitted under applicable law, Lessee shall pay as
Additional Charges all costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees and expenses) reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Lessor as a
result of any Lease Default.

      (c)   If any Lease Default shall have occurred, whether or not this Lease
has been terminated pursuant to Paragraph (a) of this Section, Lessee shall, to
the extent permitted under applicable law, if required by Lessor so to do, upon
not less than ten (10) days' prior notice from Lessor, immediately surrender to
Lessor the Leased Property pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph (a) of this
Section and quit the same, and Lessor may enter upon and repossess the Leased
Property by reasonable force, summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and
may remove Lessee and all other Persons and any and all of the Tangible Personal
Property from the Leased Property, subject to the rights of any residents or
patients of the Facility and any Sublessees who are not Affiliates of any member
of the Leasing Group and to any requirements of applicable law, or Lessor may
claim ownership of the Tangible Personal Property as set forth in Section 5.2.3
hereof or Lessor may exercise its rights as secured party under the Security
Agreement.  Lessor shall use reasonable, good faith efforts to relet the Leased
Property or otherwise mitigate damages suffered by Lessor as a result of
Lessee's breach of this Lease.

      (d)   In addition to all of the rights and remedies of Lessor set forth in
this Lease and the other Lease Documents, if Lessee shall fail to pay any rental
or other charge due hereunder (whether denominated as Base Rent, Additional
Charges or otherwise) within ten (10) days after same shall have become due and
payable, then and in such event Lessee shall also pay to Lessor (i) a late
payment service charge (in order to partially defray Lessor's administrative and
other overhead expenses) equal to two hundred-fifty ($250) dollars and (ii) to
the extent permitted by applicable law, interest on such unpaid sum at the
Overdue Rate; it being understood, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed
to extend the due date for payment of any sums required to be paid by Lessee
hereunder or to relieve Lessee of


                                     -113-
<PAGE>
its obligation to pay such sums at the time or times required by this Lease.

      (e)   LESSOR SHALL HAVE THE FOLLOWING RIGHTS TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST
LESSEE AND ALL PERSONS CLAIMING THROUGH LESSEE, FOR POSSESSION OF THE LEASED
PROPERTY AND/OR FOR MONIES OWED TO LESSOR:

      (i)   IF ANY LEASE DEFAULT SHALL HAVE OCCURRED, LESSEE HEREBY EMPOWERS ANY
            PROTHONOTARY, CLERK OF COURT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY COURT OF RECORD TO
            APPEAR FOR LESSEE IN ANY AND ALL SUITS, ACTIONS OR ACTIONS IN
            ASSUMPSIT WHICH MAY BE BROUGHT FOR RENT OR ANY CHARGES HEREBY
            RESERVED AS RENT, OR DAMAGES BY REASON THEREOF, OR ANY ADDITIONAL
            CHARGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LATE FEES OR INTEREST
            ACCRUED OR ACCRUING THEREON (COLLECTIVELY, THE "AMOUNTS DUE"), OR
            ANY PORTION THEREOF.  IN SUCH SUITS OR ACTIONS, LESSEE EMPOWERS SUCH
            PROTHONOTARY, CLERK OF COURT OR ATTORNEY TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST
            LESSEE FOR ALL OR ANY PART OF THE RENT SPECIFIED IN THIS LEASE AND
            THEN UNPAID AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS DUE UNDER THIS LEASE.  SUCH
            AUTHORITY SHALL NOT BE EXHAUSTED BY ONE EXERCISE THEREOF, BUT
            JUDGMENT MAY BE CONFESSED AS AFORESAID FROM TIME TO TIME AS OFTEN AS
            ANY RENT OR ANY OTHER AMOUNT DUE SHALL FALL DUE OR BE IN ARREARS,
            INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, FOR THE SAME AMOUNTS DUE AS PREVIOUSLY
            CONFESSED IF AND TO THE EXTENT THAT A PREVIOUS CONFESSION OF
            JUDGMENT SHALL BE STRICKEN OR OTHERWISE INVALIDATED WITHOUT A FINAL
            DECISION ON THE MERITS OF THE CLAIM.  SUCH POWERS MAY BE EXERCISED
            AS WELL AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE TERM, AND/OR AFTER THE
            TERMINATION OF THIS LEASE.

      (ii)  WHEN THIS LEASE SHALL BE TERMINATED BY REASON OF A LEASE DEFAULT OR
            ANY OTHER REASON WHATSOEVER, AND ALSO WHEN THE TERM HEREBY CREATED
            SHALL HAVE EXPIRED, IT SHALL BE LAWFUL FOR ANY ATTORNEY TO APPEAR
            FOR LESSEE IN ANY AND ALL SUITS OR ACTIONS WHICH MAY BE BROUGHT FOR
            POSSESSION AND/OR EJECTMENT; AND AS ATTORNEY FOR LESSEE TO CONFESS
            JUDGMENT IN EJECTMENT AGAINST LESSEE AND ALL PERSONS CLAIMING UNDER
            LESSEE FOR THE RECOVERY BY LESSOR OF POSSESSION OF THE LEASED
            PROPERTY, FOR WHICH THIS LEASE SHALL BE LESSOR'S SUFFICIENT
            WARRANT.  UPON SUCH CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT FOR POSSESSION, IF


                                     -114-
<PAGE>
            LESSOR SO DESIRES, A WRIT OF EXECUTION OR OF POSSESSION MAY ISSUE
            FORTHWITH, WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WRIT OR PROCEEDINGS WHATSOEVER. IF FOR
            ANY REASON AFTER SUCH ACTION SHALL HAVE BEEN COMMENCED, THE SAME
            SHALL BE DETERMINED AND THE POSSESSION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY SHALL
            REMAIN IN OR BE RESTORED TO LESSEE, THEN LESSOR SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT
            UPON ANY SUBSEQUENT OR CONTINUING LEASE DEFAULT, OR AFTER EXPIRATION
            OF THIS LEASE, OR UPON THE TERMINATION OF THIS LEASE AS HEREINBEFORE
            SET FORTH, TO BRING ONE OR MORE FURTHER ACTIONS AS HEREINBEFORE SET
            FORTH TO RECOVER POSSESSION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY.

      (iii) In any action of ejectment and/or for Rent in arrears or other
            Amounts Due, Lessor shall cause to be filed in such action an
            affidavit made by Lessor or someone acting for Lessor setting forth
            the facts necessary to authorize the entry of judgment, of which
            facts such affidavit shall be conclusive evidence.  If a true copy
            of this Lease shall be filed in such action (and the truth of the
            copy as asserted in the affidavit of Lessor shall be sufficient
            evidence of same), it shall not be necessary to file the original
            Lease as a warrant of attorney, any rule of court, custom or
            practice to the contrary notwithstanding.

      (iv)  Lessee expressly agrees, to the extent not prohibited by law, that
            any judgment, order or decree entered against it by or in any court
            or magistrate by virtue of the powers of attorney contained in this
            Lease shall be final, and that Lessee will not take an appeal,
            certiorari, writ of error, exception or objection to the same, or
            file a motion or rule to strike off or open or to stay execution of
            the same, and releases to Lessor and to any and all attorneys who
            may appear for Lessee all errors in such proceedings and all
            liability therefor.

      (v)   The right to enter judgment against Lessee and to enforce all of the
            other provisions of this Lease herein provided for, at the option of
            any assignee of this Lease, may be exercised by any assignee of
            Lessor's right, title and interest in this Lease in Lessee's own
            name, notwithstanding the fact that any or


                                     -115-
<PAGE>
            all assignments of such right, title and interest may not be
            executed and/or witnessed in accordance with the Act of Assembly of
            May 28,1715,1 Sm. L. 94, and all supplements and amendments thereto
            that have been or may hereafter be passed. Lessee hereby expressly
            waives the requirements of such Act of Assembly and any and all laws
            regulating the manner and/or form in which such assignments shall be
            executed and witnessed.

      (vi)  LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL IN
            CONNECTION WITH THE NEGOTIATION OF THIS LEASE, THAT IT HAS READ AND
            DISCUSSED WITH SUCH COUNSEL THE PROVISIONS HEREIN RELATING TO
            CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT, AND THAT IT UNDERSTANDS THE NATURE AND
            CONSEQUENCES OF SUCH PROVISIONS.

      16.3  Damages.  None of (a) the termination of this Lease pursuant to
Section 16.2, (b) the eviction of Lessee or the repossession of the Leased
Property, (c) the failure or inability of Lessor, notwithstanding reasonable
good faith efforts, to relet the Leased Property, (d) the reletting of the
Leased Property or (e) the failure of Lessor to collect or receive any rentals
due upon any such reletting, shall relieve Lessee of its liability and
obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such termination,
repossession or reletting.  In any such event, Lessee shall forthwith pay to
Lessor all Rent due and payable with respect to the Leased Property to and
including the date of such termination, repossession or eviction.  Thereafter,
Lessee shall forthwith pay to Lessor, at Lessor's option, either:

      (i)   the sum of: (x) all Rent that is due and unpaid at the later to
            occur of termination, repossession or eviction, together with
            interest thereon at the Overdue Rate to the date of payment, plus
            (y) the worth (calculated in the manner stated below) of the amount
            by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the later
            to occur of the termination, repossession or eviction exceeds the
            fair market rental value of the Leased Property for the balance of
            the Term, plus (z) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor
            for all damage proximately caused by Lessee's failure to perform the
            Lease Obligations or which in


                                     -116-
<PAGE>
            the ordinary course would be likely to result therefrom; or

      (ii)  each payment of Rent as the same would have become due and payable
            if Lessee's right of possession or other rights under this Lease had
            not been terminated, or if Lessee had not been evicted, or if the
            Leased Property had not been repossessed; which Rent, to the extent
            permitted by law, shall bear interest at the Overdue Rate from the
            date when due until the date paid, and Lessor may enforce, by action
            or otherwise, any other term or covenant of this Lease.  There shall
            be credited against Lessee's obligation under this Clause (ii)
            amounts actually collected by Lessor from another tenant to whom any
            portion of the Leased Property may have actually been leased or, if
            Lessor is operating any portion of the Leased Property for its own
            account, the actual cash flow of the Leased Property.

      In making the determinations described in subparagraph (i) above, the
"worth" of unpaid Rent shall be determined by a court having jurisdiction
thereof using the lowest rate of capitalization (highest present worth)
reasonably applicable at the time of such determination and allowed by
applicable law.

      16.4  Lessee Waivers.  If this Lease is terminated pursuant to Section
16.2, Lessee waives, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, (a) any
right of redemption, re-entry or repossession, (b) any right to a trial by jury
in the event of summary proceedings to enforce the remedies set forth in this
Article 16, and (c) the benefit of any laws now or hereafter in force exempting
property from liability for rent or for debt.

      16.5  Application of Funds.  Any payments otherwise payable to Lessee
which are received by Lessor under any of the provisions of this Lease during
the existence or continuance of any Lease Default shall be applied to the Lease
Obligations in the order which Lessor may reasonably determine or as may be
required by the laws of the State.

      16.6  [Intentionally Deleted].

      16.7  Lessor's Right to Cure.  If Lessee shall fail to make any payment,
or to perform any act required to be made or performed under this Lease and to
cure the same within the


                                     -117-
<PAGE>
relevant time periods provided in Section 16.1, Lessor, after five (5) Business
Days' prior notice to Lessee (except in an emergency when such shorter notice
shall be given as is reasonable under the circumstances), and without waiving or
releasing any obligation or Event of Default, may (but shall be under no
obligation to) at any time thereafter make such payment or perform such act for
the account and at the expense of Lessee, and may, to the extent permitted by
law, enter upon the Leased Property for such purpose and take all such action
thereon as, in Lessor's opinion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor. No
such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Lessee. All sums so paid by Lessor and
all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
fees and expenses, in each case, to the extent permitted by law) so incurred
shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor on demand as an Additional Charge. The
obligations of Lessee and rights of Lessor contained in this Article shall
survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

      16.8  No Waiver By Lessor.  Lessor shall not by any act, delay, omission
or otherwise (including, without limitation, the exercise of any right or remedy
hereunder) be deemed to have waived any of its right or remedies hereunder or
under any of the other Lease Documents unless such waiver is in writing and
signed by Lessor, and then, only to the extent specifically set forth therein.
No waiver at any time of any of the terms, conditions, covenants,
representations or warranties set forth in any of the Lease Documents
(including, without limitation, any of the time periods set forth therein for
the performance of the Lease Obligations) shall be construed as a waiver of any
other term, condition, covenant, representation or warranty of any of the Lease
Documents, nor shall such a waiver in any one instance or circumstances be
construed as a waiver of the same term, condition, covenant, representation or
warranty in any subsequent instance or circumstance.  No such failure, delay or
waiver shall be construed as creating a requirement that Lessor must thereafter,
as a result of such failure, delay or waiver, give notice to Lessee or the
Guarantor  or any other Person that Lessor does not intend to, or may not, give
a further waiver or to refrain from insisting upon the strict performance of the
terms, conditions, covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the
Lease Documents before Lessor can exercise any of its rights or remedies under
any of the Lease Documents or before any Lease Default can occur, or as
establishing a course


                                     -118-
<PAGE>
of dealing for interpreting the conduct of and agreements between Lessor and
Lessee, the Guarantor or any other Person.

      The acceptance by Lessor of any payment that is less than payment in full
of all amounts then due under any of the Lease Documents at the time of the
making of such payment shall not: (a) constitute a waiver of the right to
exercise any of Lessor's remedies at that time or at any subsequent time, (b)
constitute an accord and satisfaction or (c) nullify any prior exercise of any
remedy, without the express written consent of Lessor.  Any failure by Lessor to
take any action under this Lease or any of the other Lease Documents by reason
of a default hereunder or thereunder, any acceptance of a past due installment,
or any indulgence granted from time to time shall not be construed (i) as a
novation of this Lease or any of the other Lease Documents, (ii) as a waiver of
any right of Lessor thereafter to insist upon strict compliance with the terms
of this Lease or any of the other Lease Documents or (iii) to prevent the
exercise of any right of acceleration or any other right granted hereunder or
under applicable law; and to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable
law, Lessor hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or
equity now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a
result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing.

      16.9  Right of Forbearance.  Whether or not for consideration paid or
payable to Lessor and, except as may be otherwise specifically agreed to by
Lessor in writing, no forbearance on the part of Lessor, no extension of the
time for the payment of the whole or any part of the Obligations, and no other
indulgence given by Lessor to Lessee or any other Person, shall operate to
release or in any manner affect the original liability of Lessee or such other
Persons, or to limit, prejudice or impair any right of Lessor, including,
without limitation, the right to realize upon any collateral, or any part
thereof, for any of the Obligations evidenced or secured by the Lease Documents;
notice of any such extension, forbearance or indulgence being hereby waived by
Lessee and all those claiming by, through or under Lessee.

      16.10 Cumulative Remedies.  The rights and remedies set forth under this
Lease are in addition to all other rights and remedies afforded to Lessor under
any of the other Lease Documents or at law or in equity, all of which are hereby


                                     -119-
<PAGE>
reserved by Lessor, and this Lease is made and accepted without prejudice to any
such rights and remedies.  All of the rights and remedies of Lessor under each
of the Lease Documents shall be separate and cumulative and may be exercised
concurrently or successively in Lessor's sole and absolute discretion.

                                    ARTICLE 17

               SURRENDER OF LEASED PROPERTY OR LEASE; HOLDING OVER

      17.1  Surrender.  Lessee shall, upon the expiration or prior termination
of the Term (unless Lessee has concurrently purchased the Leased Property in
accordance with the terms hereof), vacate and surrender the Leased Property to
Lessor in good repair and condition, in compliance with all Legal Requirements,
all Insurance Requirements, and in compliance with the provisions of Article 8,
except for: (a) ordinary wear and tear (subject to the obligation of Lessee to
maintain the Leased Property in good order and repair during the entire Term of
the Lease), (b) damage caused by the gross negligence or willful acts of Lessor,
and (c) any damage or destruction resulting from a Casualty or Taking that
Lessee is not required by the terms of this Lease to repair or restore.

      17.2  Transfer of Permits and Contracts.  In connection with the
expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease (unless Lessee has
concurrently purchased the Leased Property in accordance with the terms hereof),
upon any request made from time to time by Lessor, Lessee shall (a) promptly and
diligently use its best efforts to (i) transfer and assign all Permits and
Contracts necessary or desirable for the operation of each Facility in
accordance with its Primary Intended Lease to Lessor or its designee and/or (ii)
arrange for the transfer or assignment of such Permits and Contracts to Lessor
or its designee, all to the extent the same may be transferred or assigned under
applicable law and (b) cooperate in every respect (and to the fullest extent
possible) and assist Lessor or its designee in obtaining such Permits and
Contracts (whether by transfer, assignment or otherwise).  Such efforts and
cooperation on the part of Lessee shall include, without limitation, the
execution, delivery and filing with appropriate Governmental Authorities and
Third Party Payors of any applications, petitions, statements, notices,
requests, assignments and other documents or instruments requested by


                                     -120-
<PAGE>
Lessor. Furthermore, Lessee shall not take any action or refrain from taking any
action which would defer, delay or jeopardize the process of Lessor or its
designee obtaining said Permits and Contracts (whether by transfer, assignment
or otherwise). Without limiting the foregoing, Lessee shall not seek to transfer
or relocate any of said Permits or Contracts to any location other than any
Facility Property. The provisions of this Section 17.2 shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

      Lessee hereby appoints Lessor as its attorney-in-fact, with full power of
substitution to take such actions, in the event that Lessee fails to comply with
any request made by Lessor hereunder, as Lessor (in its sole absolute
discretion) may deem necessary or desirable to effectuate the intent of this
Section 17.2.  The power of attorney conferred on Lessor by the provisions of
this Section 17.2, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable until
the Obligations are fully paid and performed and shall not be affected by any
disability or incapacity which Lessee may suffer and shall survive the same.
Such power of attorney is provided solely to protect the interests of Lessor and
shall not impose any duty on Lessor to exercise any such power and neither
Lessor nor such attorney-in-fact shall be liable for any act, omission, error in
judgment or mistake of law, except as the same may result from its gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

      17.3  No Acceptance of Surrender.  Except at the expiration of the Term in
the ordinary course, no surrender to Lessor of this Lease or of all or any
portion of the Leased Property or any interest therein shall be valid or
effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Lessor and no act by
Lessor or any representative or agent of Lessor, other than such a written
acceptance by Lessor, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.

      17.4  Holding Over.  If, for any reason, Lessee shall remain in possession
of any portion of the Leased Property after the expiration or any earlier
termination of the Term, such possession shall be as a tenant at sufferance
during which time Lessee shall pay as rental each month, one and one-half times
the aggregate of (i) one-twelfth of the Base Rent payable at the time of such
expiration or earlier termination of the Term; (ii) all Additional Charges
accruing during the month and (iii) all


                                     -121-
<PAGE>
other sums, if any, payable by Lessee pursuant to the provisions of this Lease
with respect to the Leased Property. During such period of tenancy, Lessee shall
be obligated to perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions
of this Lease, but shall have no rights hereunder other than the right, to the
extent given by law to tenants at sufferance, to continue its occupancy and use
of the Leased Property. Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent,
express or implied, of Lessor to the holding over of Lessee after the expiration
or earlier termination of this Lease.

                                    ARTICLE 18

                         PURCHASE OF THE LEASED PROPERTY

      18.1  Purchase of the Leased Property.  In the event Lessee purchases all
or any portion of the Leased Property from Lessor pursuant to any of the terms
of this Lease, Lessor shall, upon receipt from Lessee of the applicable purchase
price, together with full payment of any unpaid Rent due and payable with
respect to any period ending on or before the date of the purchase, deliver to
Lessee a deed with covenants only against acts of Lessor conveying the entire
interest of Lessor in and to the Leased Property to be purchased to Lessee
subject to all Legal Requirements, all of the matters described in clauses (a),
(b), (e) and (g) of Section 11.5.2, Impositions, any Liens created by Lessee,
any Liens created in accordance with the terms of this Lease or consented to by
Lessee, the claims of all Persons claiming by through or under Lessee, any other
matters assented to by Lessee and all matters for which Lessee has
responsibility under any of the Lease Documents, but otherwise not subject to
any other Lien created by Lessor from and after the Commencement Date (other
than an Encumbrance permitted under Article 20 which Lessee elects to assume).
The applicable purchase price shall be paid in cash to Lessor, or as Lessor may
direct, in federal or other immediately available funds except as otherwise
mutually agreed by Lessor and Lessee.  All expenses of such conveyance,
including, without limitation, title examination costs, standard (and extended)
coverage title insurance premiums, attorneys' fees incurred by Lessor in
connection with such conveyance, recording and transfer taxes and recording fees
and other similar charges shall be paid by Lessee.

      18.2  Appraisal.

            18.2.1 Designation of Appraisers. In the event that it becomes
      necessary to determine the Fair Market Value of the Leased Property (or
      portion thereof) for any purpose of this Lease, the party required or
      permitted to give notice of such required determination shall include in
      the notice the name of a Person selected to act as appraiser on its
      behalf. Within ten (10) days after receipt of any such notice, Lessor (or
      Lessee, as the case may be) shall by notice to Lessee (or Lessor, as the
      case may be) appoint a second Person as appraiser on its behalf.

            18.2.2 Appraisal Process. The appraisers thus appointed, each of
      whom must be a member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers
      (or any successor organization thereto), shall, within forty-five (45)
      days after the date of the notice appointing the first appraiser, proceed
      to appraise the Leased Property (or portion thereof) to determine the Fair
      Market Value of the Leased Property (or portion thereof) as of the
      relevant date (giving effect to the impact, if any, of inflation from the
      date of their decision to the relevant date); provided, however, that if
      only one appraiser shall have been so appointed, or if two appraisers
      shall have been so appointed but only one such appraiser shall have made
      such determination within fifty (50) days after the making of Lessee's or
      Lessor's request, then the determination of such appraiser shall be final
      and binding upon the parties. If two appraisers shall have been appointed
      and shall have made their determinations within the respective requisite
      periods set forth above and if the difference between the amounts so
      determined shall not exceed ten per cent (10%) of the lesser of such
      amounts, then the Fair Market Value of the Leased Property (or portion
      thereof) shall be an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the sum of the
      amounts so determined. If the difference between the amounts so determined
      shall exceed ten percent (10%) of the lesser of such amounts, then such
      two appraisers shall have twenty (20) days to appoint a third appraiser,
      but if such appraisers fail to do so, then either party may request the
      American Arbitration Association or any successor organization thereto to
      appoint an appraiser within twenty (20) days of such request, and both
      parties shall be bound


                                     -123-
<PAGE>
      by any appointment so made within such twenty (20) day period. If no such
      appraiser shall have been appointed within such twenty (20) days or within
      ninety (90) days of the original request for a determination of Fair
      Market Value of the Leased Property (or portion thereof), whichever is
      earlier, either Lessor or Lessee may apply to any court having
      jurisdiction to have such appointment made by such court. Any appraiser
      appointed by the original appraisers, by the American Arbitration
      Association or by such court shall be instructed to determine the Fair
      Market Value of the Leased Property (or portion thereof) within thirty
      (30) days after appointment of such Appraiser. The determination of the
      appraiser which differs most in terms of dollar amount from the
      determinations of the other two appraisers shall be excluded, and fifty
      percent (50%) of the sum of the remaining two determinations shall be
      final and binding upon Lessor and Lessee as the Fair Market Value of the
      Leased Property (or portion thereof).

            18.2.3 Specific Enforcement and Costs. This provision for
      determination by appraisal shall be specifically enforceable to the extent
      such remedy is available under applicable law, and any determination
      hereunder shall be final and binding upon the parties except as otherwise
      provided by applicable law. Lessor and Lessee shall each pay the fees and
      expenses of the appraiser appointed by it and each shall pay one-half of
      the fees and expenses of the third appraiser and one-half of all other
      cost and expenses incurred in connection with each appraisal.

      18.3  [Intentionally Deleted].

      18.4  Lessee's Option to Purchase.

            18.4.1 Conditions to Option. On the conditions (which conditions
      Lessor may waive, at its sole option, by notice to Lessee at any time)
      that (a) at the time of exercise of the Purchase Option and on the
      applicable Purchase Option Date, there then exists no Lease Default, nor
      any state of facts or circumstance which constitutes, or with the passage
      of time and/or the giving of notice, would constitute a Lease Default and
      (b) Lessee strictly complies with the provisions of this Section 18.4,
      then Lessee shall have the option to purchase the entire Leased


                                     -124-
<PAGE>
      Property (but not any part thereof), at the price and upon the terms
      hereinafter set forth (the "Purchase Option").

            18.4.2 Exercise of Option. The Purchase Option shall permit Lessee
      to purchase the Leased Property on the last day of the Term (the "Purchase
      Option Date") and shall be exercised by notice given by Lessee to Lessor
      (the "Lessee's Purchase Option Notice") at least one hundred eighty (180)
      days (but not more than two hundred seventy (270) days) prior to the
      Purchase Option Date. Once given, Lessee shall have no right to rescind
      Lessee's Purchase Option Notice.

            18.4.3 Conveyance. If the Purchase Option is exercised by Lessee in
      accordance with the terms hereof, the Leased Property shall be conveyed by
      one or more good and sufficient deeds with covenants only against acts of
      Lessor (collectively, the "Deed") running to Lessee or to such grantee as
      Lessee may designate by notice to Lessor at least seven (7) days before
      the Time of Closing.

            18.4.4 Calculation of Purchase Price. The price to be paid by Lessee
      for the acquisition of the Leased Property pursuant to this Purchase
      Option (the "Purchase Price") shall be equal to the greater of (a) the
      Meditrust Investment or (b) an amount equal to the then Fair Market Value
      of the Leased Property minus the Fair Market Added Value.

            18.4.5 Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be paid
      by Lessee at the Time of Closing by certified, cashier's, treasurer's or
      bank check(s) or wire transfer pursuant to instructions received from
      Lessor.

            18.4.6 Place and Time of Closing. If the Purchase Option is
      exercised, the closing shall occur and the Deed shall be delivered (the
      "Closing") at the office of Lessor at 12:00 o'clock noon (local time in
      Boston, Massachusetts) on the applicable Purchase Option Date (such time,
      as the same may be extended by mutual written agreement of Lessor and
      Lessee, being hereinafter referred to as the "Time of Closing"). It is
      agreed that time is of the essence of the Purchase Option.


                                     -125-
<PAGE>
            18.4.7 Condition of Leased Property. The Leased Property is to be
      purchased "AS IS" and "WHERE IS" as of the Time of Closing.

            18.4.8 Quality of Title. If Lessor shall be unable to give title or
      to make conveyance, as stipulated in this Section 18.4, then, at Lessor's
      option, Lessor shall use reasonable efforts to remove all defects in title
      and the applicable Purchase Option Date and Time of Closing shall be
      extended for period of thirty (30) days. Lessor shall not be required to
      expend more than FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($50,000) (inclusive of attorney's
      fees) in order to have used "reasonable efforts."

            18.4.9 Lessor's Inability to Perform. If at the expiration of the
      extended time Lessor shall have failed so to remove any such defects in
      title, then all other obligations of all parties hereto under Section 18.4
      shall cease and Section 18.4 shall be void and without recourse to the
      parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall have the
      election, at either the original or extended Purchase Option Date and Time
      of Closing, to accept such title as Lessor can deliver to the Leased
      Property in its then condition and to pay therefor the Purchase Price
      without reduction, in which case Lessor shall convey such title; provided,
      that, in the event of such conveyance, if any portion of the Leased
      Property shall have been taken by Condemnation prior to the applicable
      Purchase Option Date and Time of Closing, Lessor shall pay over or assign
      to Lessee at the Time of Closing, all Awards recovered on account of such
      Taking, less any amounts reasonably expended by Lessor in obtaining such
      Awards, or, to the extent such Awards have not been recovered as of the
      applicable Purchase Option Date and Time of Closing, Lessor shall assign
      to Lessee all its rights with respect to any claim therefor.

            18.4.10 Merger by Deed. The acceptance of the Deed by Lessee or the
      grantee designated by Lessee, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be a
      full performance and discharge of every agreement and obligation to be
      performed by Lessor contained or expressed in this Lease.

            18.4.11 Use of Purchase Price to Clear Title. To enable Lessor to
      make conveyance as provided in this


                                     -126-
<PAGE>
      Section, Lessor may, at the Time of Closing, use the Purchase Price or any
      portion thereof to clear the title of any Lien, provided that all
      instruments so procured are recorded contemporaneously with the Closing or
      reasonable arrangements are made for a recording subsequent to the Time of
      Closing in accordance with customary conveyancing practices.

            18.4.12 Lessee's Default. If Lessee delivers Lessee's Purchase
      Option Notice and fails to consummate the purchase of the Leased Property
      in accordance with the terms hereof for any reason other than Lessor's
      willful and unexcused refusal to deliver the Deed, (a) Lessee shall
      thereafter have no further right to purchase the Leased Property pursuant
      to this Section, although this Lease shall otherwise continue in full
      force and effect and (b) Lessor shall have the right to sue for specific
      performance of Lessee's obligations to purchase the Leased Property
      provided such suit for specific performance is commenced within one (1)
      year after the applicable Purchase Option Date on which such sale was
      supposed to occur.

                                   ARTICLE 19

                            SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT

      19.1  Subletting and Assignment.  Except as specifically set forth in
Section 19.2 below, Lessee may not, without the prior written consent of Lessor,
which consent may be withheld in Lessor's sole and absolute discretion, assign
or pledge all or any portion of its interest in this Lease or any of the other
Lease Documents (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or sublet all or any
part of the Leased Property.  For purposes of this Section 19.1, the term
"assign" shall be deemed to include, but not be limited to, any one or more
direct or indirect sales, pledges, hypothecations or other transfers (including,
without limitation, any transfer by operation of law) of any of the capital
stock of or partnership interest in Lessee or sales, pledges, hypothecations or
other transfers (including, without limitation, any transfer by operation of
law) of the capital or the assets of Lessee.  Any such assignment, pledge, sale,
hypothecation or other transfer made without Lessor's consent shall be void and
of no force and effect.


                                     -127-

      19.2  Permitted Subleases.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall
have the right to enter into (a) Residence Agreements and (b) subleases with
physical therapy providers substantially in the form previously approved by
Lessor, in each case without the prior consent of Lessor.

      19.3  Attornment.  Lessee shall insert in each Sublease approved by Lessor
provisions to the effect that (a) such Sublease is subject and subordinate to
all of the terms and provisions of this Lease and to the rights of Lessor
hereunder, (b) in the event this Lease shall terminate before the expiration of
such Sublease, the Sublessee thereunder will, at Lessor's option, attorn to
Lessor and waive any right the Sublessee may have to terminate the Sublease or
to surrender possession thereunder, as a result of the termination of this Lease
and (c) in the event the Sublessee receives a written notice from Lessor stating
that Lessee is in default under this Lease, the Sublessee shall thereafter be
obligated to pay all rentals accruing under said Sublease directly to Lessor or
as Lessor may direct.  All rentals received from the Sublessee by Lessor shall
be credited against the amounts owing by Lessee under this Lease.

      19.4  Permitted Transfers.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
forth herein, from and after the date of the consummation of the Guarantor's
initial public offering of shares of common stock, (i) subject to the provisions
of the paragraph immediately following this paragraph, any transfer (whether by
operation of law or otherwise) of any shares of the common stock of the
Guarantor shall not constitute a Lease Default and (ii) any merger of the
Guarantor with any other Person shall not constitute a Lease Default, provided,
that, the Guarantor is the surviving entity and remains in compliance with all
of the conditions, covenants and agreements set forth in the Lease Documents
pertaining to the Guarantor (including, without limitation, any financial
covenants).

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, from and after
the date of the consummation of the Guarantor's initial public offering of
common stock, the beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), at any time,
by any Person and its Affiliates, either individually or as a


                                     -128-
<PAGE>
group, of an aggregate of fifty percent (50%) or more of the common stock of the
Guarantor shall constitute a Lease Default.

      Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary set forth herein or in any
of the other Lease Documents, Lessor hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a)
Guarantor may be merged, consolidated or otherwise combined with, or (b)
Guarantor's assets may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise transferred to, or
(c) Guarantor's Voting Stock (as defined below) may be sold, assigned or
otherwise transferred to, any of the Reichmann Entities (as defined below),
whether in one transaction or a series of transactions; provided, however, that
any event which causes a Reichmann Entity directly or indirectly to cease being
a Reichmann Entity shall constitute a Lease Default.

      As used herein, the term "Reichmann Entities" shall mean any of the
following, whether now existing or hereafter created, acting separately or in
concert:

            (a)   Paul Reichmann or any of his ancestors or descendants or any
            entity controlled by him or any of them; or

            (b)   any trust for the benefit of Paul Reichmann or any one or more
            of his ancestors or descendants or any entity controlled by such a
            trust, for so long as Paul Reichmann or any one or more of his
            ancestors or descendants controls the decision making functions of
            such trust.

      As used herein, the term "Voting Stock" shall collectively mean [i] any
and all classes of capital stock of a corporation to which any voting rights are
ascribed to the holders thereof, at law or by contract, together with [ii] any
contracts for the purchase of such stock already issued by that corporation,
[iii] subscriptions for the purchase of such stock to be issued by that
corporation, [iv] options to purchase such stock, [v] warrants for such stock,
[vi] securities convertible into such stock, [vii] voting trusts, proxies, or
other agreements or understandings with respect to the voting of such stock, or
[viii] purchase rights, exchange rights, or other contracts or commitments that
could require that corporation to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any
such stock or that could


                                     -129-
<PAGE>
require that corporation to issue, sell, or otherwise cause to become
outstanding any of such stock.


                                   ARTICLE 20

                   TITLE TRANSFERS AND LIENS GRANTED BY LESSOR

      20.1  No Merger of Title.  There shall be no merger of this Lease or of
the leasehold estate created hereby with the fee estate in the Leased Property
by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own or hold, directly or
indirectly (a) this Lease or the leasehold estate created hereby or any interest
in this Lease or such leasehold estate and (b) the fee estate in all or any
portion of the Leased Property.

      20.2  Transfers By Lessor.  If the original Lessor named herein or any
successor in interest shall convey the Leased Property in accordance with the
terms hereof, other than as security for a debt, and the grantee or transferee
of the Leased Property shall expressly assume all obligations of Lessor
hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or
transfer, the original Lessor named herein or the applicable successor in
interest so conveying the Leased Property shall thereupon be released from all
future liabilities and obligations of Lessor under this Lease arising or
accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer as to the
Leased Property and all such future liabilities and obligations shall thereupon
be binding upon the new owner.

      20.3  Lessor May Grant Liens.  Without the consent of Lessee, but subject
to the terms and conditions set forth below in this Section 20.3, Lessor may,
from time to time, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause to exist
any lien, encumbrance or title retention agreement upon any portion of the
Leased Property or any interest therein ("Encumbrance"), whether to secure any
borrowing or other means of financing or refinancing, provided that Lessee shall
have no obligation to make payments under such Encumbrances.  Lessee shall
subordinate this Lease to the lien of any such Encumbrance, on the condition
that the beneficiary or holder of such Encumbrance executes a non-disturbance
agreement in conformity with the provisions of Section 20.4.  To the extent that
any such Encumbrance consists of a mortgage or deed of trust on Lessor's
interest in any portion of the Leased Property the same shall be referred to


                                     -130-
<PAGE>
herein as a "Fee Mortgage" and the holder thereof shall be referred to herein as
a "Fee Mortgagee".

      20.4  Subordination and Non-Disturbance.  Concurrently with the execution
and delivery of any Fee Mortgage entered into after the Commencement Date,
provided that Lessee executes and delivers an agreement of the type described in
the following paragraph, Lessor shall obtain and deliver to Lessee an agreement
by the holder of such Fee Mortgage, pursuant to which, (a) the applicable Fee
Mortgagee consents to this Lease and (b) agrees that, notwithstanding the terms
of the applicable Fee Mortgage held by such Fee Mortgagee, or any default,
expiration, termination, foreclosure, sale, entry or other act or omission under
or pursuant to such Fee Mortgage or a transfer in lieu of foreclosure, (i)
Lessee's rights under this Lease shall not be disturbed nor shall this Lease be
terminated or cancelled at any time, except in the event that Lessor shall have
the right to terminate this Lease under the terms and provisions expressly set
forth herein, (ii) Lessee's option to purchase the Leased Property shall remain
in force and effect pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) in the event that
Lessee elects its option to purchase the Leased Property and performs all of its
obligations hereunder in connection with any such election, the holder of the
Fee Mortgage shall release its Fee Mortgage upon payment by Lessee of the
purchase price required hereunder, provided, that (1) such purchase price is
paid to the holder of the Fee Mortgage, in the event that the Indebtedness
secured by the applicable Fee Mortgage is equal to or greater than the purchase
price or (2) in the event that the purchase price is greater than the
Indebtedness secured by the Fee Mortgage, a portion of the purchase price equal
to the Indebtedness secured by the Fee Mortgage is paid to the Fee Mortgagee and
the remainder of the purchase price is paid to Lessor.

      At the request from time to time by any Fee Mortgagee, Lessee shall (a)
subordinate this Lease and all of Lessee's rights and estate hereunder to the
Fee Mortgage held by such Fee Mortgagee and (b) agree that Lessee will attorn to
and recognize such Fee Mortgagee or the purchaser at any foreclosure sale or any
sale under a power of sale contained in any such Fee Mortgage as Lessor under
this Lease for the balance of the Term then remaining.  To effect the intent and
purpose of the immediately preceding sentence, Lessee agrees to execute and
deliver such instruments in recordable form as are reasonably


                                     -131-
<PAGE>
requested by Lessor or the applicable Fee Mortgagee; provided, however, that
such Fee Mortgagee simultaneously executes, delivers and records a written
agreement of the type described in the preceding paragraph.

                                   ARTICLE 21

                               LESSOR OBLIGATIONS

      21.1  Quiet Enjoyment.  As long as Lessee shall pay all Rent and all other
sums due under any of the Lease Documents as the same become due and shall fully
comply with all of the terms of this Lease and the other Lease Documents and
fully perform its obligations thereunder, Lessee shall peaceably and quietly
have, hold and enjoy the Leased Property throughout the Term, free of any claim
or other action by Lessor or anyone claiming by, through or under Lessor, but
subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and such Liens as may hereafter be
consented to by Lessee.  No failure by Lessor to comply with the foregoing
covenant shall give Lessee any right to cancel or terminate this Lease, or to
fail to perform any other sum payable under this Lease, or to fail to perform
any other obligation of Lessee hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee
shall have the right by separate and independent action to pursue any claim it
may have against Lessor as a result of a breach by Lessor of the covenant of
quiet enjoyment contained in this Article 21.

      21.2  Memorandum of Lease.  Lessor and Lessee shall, promptly upon the
request of either, enter into a short form memorandum of this Lease, in form
suitable for recording under the laws of the State, in which reference to this
Lease and all options contained herein shall be made.  Lessee shall pay all
recording costs and taxes associated therewith.

      21.3  Default by Lessor.  Lessor shall be in default of its obligations
under this Lease only if Lessor shall fail to observe or perform any term,
covenant or condition of this Lease on its part to be performed and such failure
shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after notice thereof from Lessee
(or such shorter time as may be necessary in order to protect the health or
welfare of any residents of any Facility or to insure the continuing compliance
of the Facility with the applicable Legal Requirements), unless such failure
cannot with due diligence be cured within a period of thirty (30) days, in which
case such failure shall not be deemed to continue if


                                     -132-
<PAGE>
Lessor, within said thirty (30) day period, proceeds promptly and with due
diligence to cure the failure and diligently completes the curing thereof. The
time within which Lessor shall be obligated to cure any such failure shall also
be subject to extension of time due to the occurrence of any Unavoidable Delay.

      In no event shall Lessor ever be liable to Lessee or any other Person for

                             MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

      24.1  Broker's Fee Indemnification.  Lessee shall and hereby agrees to
indemnify, defend (with counsel acceptable to Lessor) and hold Lessor harmless
from and against any and all claims for premiums or other charges, finder's
fees, taxes, brokerage fees or commissions and other similar compensation due in
connection with any of the transactions contemplated by the Lease Documents,
except such claims by any Person with whom Lessor has dealt without Lessee's
knowledge in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Lease
Documents.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor shall have the option of
conducting its own defense against any such claims with counsel of Lessor's
choice, but at the expense of Lessee, as aforesaid.  This indemnification shall
include all attorneys' fees and expenses and court costs reasonably incurred by
Lessor in connection with the defense against any such claims and the
enforcement of this indemnification agreement and shall survive the termination
of this Lease.

      24.2  No Joint Venture or Partnership.  Neither anything contained in any
of the Lease Documents, nor the acts of the parties hereto, shall create, or be
construed to create, a partnership or joint venture between Lessor and Lessee.
Lessee is not the agent or representative of Lessor and nothing contained herein
or in any of the other Lease Documents shall make, or be construed to make,
Lessor liable to any Person for goods delivered to Lessee, services performed
with respect to the Leased Property at the direction of Lessee or for debts or
claims accruing against Lessee.

      24.3  Amendments, Waivers and Modifications.  Except as otherwise
expressly provided for herein or in any other Lease Document, none of the terms,
covenants, conditions, warranties or representations contained in this Lease or
in any of the other Lease Documents may be renewed, replaced, amended, modified,
extended, substituted, revised, waived, consolidated or terminated except by an
agreement in writing signed by (a) all parties to this Lease or the other
applicable Lease Document, as the case may be, with regard to any such renewal,


                                     -135-
<PAGE>
replacement, amendment, modification, extension, substitution, revision,
consolidation or termination and (b) the Person against whom enforcement is
sought with regard to any waiver. The provisions of this Lease and the other
Lease Documents shall extend and be applicable to all renewals, replacements,
amendments, extensions, substitutions, revisions, consolidations and
modifications of any of the Lease Documents, the Management Agreements, the
Related Party Agreements, the Permits and/or the Contracts. References herein
and in the other Lease Documents to any of the Lease Documents, the Management
Agreements, the Related Party Agreements, the Permits and/or the Contracts shall
be deemed to include any renewals, replacements, amendments, extensions,
substitutions, revisions, consolidations or modifications thereof.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, any reference contained in any of the Lease
Documents, whether express or implied, to any renewal, replacement, amendment,
extension, substitution, revisions, consolidation or modification of any of the
Lease Documents or any Management Agreement, Related Party Agreement, Permit
and/or the Contract is not intended to constitute an agreement or consent by
Lessor to any such renewal, replacement, amendment, substitution, revision,
consolidation or modification; but, rather as a reference only to those
instances where Lessor may give, agree or consent to any such renewal,
replacement, amendment, extension, substitution, revision, consolidation or
modification as the same may be required pursuant to the terms, covenants and
conditions of any of the Lease Documents.

      24.4  Captions and Headings.  The captions and headings set forth in this
Lease and each of the other Lease Documents are included for convenience and
reference only, and the words contained therein shall in no way be held or

Lease, any of the other Lease Documents or any parts hereof or thereof.

      24.5  Time is of the Essence.  Time is of essence of each and every term,
condition, covenant and warranty set forth herein and in the other Lease
Documents.

      24.6  Counterparts.  This Lease and the other Lease Documents may be
executed in one or more counterparts, each of


                                     -136-
<PAGE>
which taken together shall constitute an original and all of which shall
constitute one in the same instrument.

      24.7  Entire Agreement.  This Lease, the other Lease Documents, and the
Option Agreement set forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to
the subject matter and shall supersede any and all prior correspondence, whether
written or oral, between Lessor and the Guarantor.

      24.8  Waiver of Jury Trial.  TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, LESSOR AND LESSEE HEREBY MUTUALLY, KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY
WAIVE ANY RIGHT WHICH ANY PARTY HERETO MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO A TRIAL BY
JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THE LEASE OR ANY OF THE LEASE DOCUMENTS.

      WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, LESSEE WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
AND ANY NOTICES TO QUIT AS MAY BE SPECIFIED IN THE LANDLORD AND TENANT ACT OF
PENNSYLVANIA, ACT OF APRIL 6, 1951 (68 P.S.C.A. SECTION 250.101 ET SEQ.), AS THE
SAME MAY HAVE BEEN OR MAY HEREAFTER BE AMENDED, AND AGREES THAT THE NOTICES
PROVIDED IN THIS LEASE SHALL BE SUFFICIENT IN ANY CASE WHERE A LONGER PERIOD MAY
BE STATUTORILY SPECIFIED.  LESSEE HEREBY CERTIFIES THAT NEITHER LESSOR NOR ANY
OF LESSOR'S REPRESENTATIVES, AGENTS OR COUNSEL HAS REPRESENTED EXPRESSLY OR
OTHERWISE THAT LESSOR WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS WAIVER TO THE RIGHT OF TRIAL BY JURY AND
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LESSOR HAS BEEN INDUCED BY THIS WAIVER (AMONG OTHER THINGS) TO
ENTER INTO THE TRANSACTIONS EVIDENCED BY THIS LEASE AND THE OTHER LEASE
DOCUMENTS AND FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LESSEE (A) HAS READ THE PROVISIONS OF
THIS LEASE, AND IN PARTICULAR, THE PARAGRAPH CONTAINING THIS WAIVER, (B) HAS
CONSULTED LEGAL COUNSEL, (C) UNDERSTANDS THE RIGHTS THAT IT IS GRANTING IN THIS
LEASE AND THE RIGHTS THAT IT WAIVING IN THIS PARAGRAPH IN PARTICULAR AND (D)
MAKES THE WAIVERS SET FORTH HEREIN KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY.

      24.9  Successors and Assigns.  This Lease and the other Lease Documents
shall be binding and inure to the benefit of (a) upon Lessee and Lessee's legal
representatives and permitted successors and assigns and (b) Lessor and any
other Person who may now or hereafter hold the interest of Lessor under this
Lease and their respective successors and assigns.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Lessee shall not assign any of


                                     -137-
<PAGE>
its rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Lease Documents
without the prior written consent of Lessor, in each instance, which consent may
be withheld in Lessor's sole and absolute discretion.

      24.10 No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Lease and the other Lease
Documents are solely for the benefit of Lessor, its successors, assigns and
participants (if any), the Meditrust Entities, the Indemnified Parties, Lessee,
the Guarantor, the other members of the Leasing Group and their respective
permitted successors and assigns, and, except as otherwise expressly set forth
in any of the Lease Documents, nothing contained therein shall confer upon any
Person other than such parties any right to insist upon or to enforce the
performance or observance of any of the obligations contained therein.  All
conditions to the obligations of Lessor to advance or make available proceeds of
insurance or Awards, or to release any deposits held for Impositions or
insurance premiums are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lessor,
its successors and assigns.  No other Person shall have standing to require
satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms, and no other
Person shall, under any circumstances, be a beneficiary of such conditions, any
or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Lessor at any time,
if, in Lessor's sole and absolute discretion, Lessor deems it advisable or
desirable to do so.

      24.11 Governing Law.  This Lease shall be construed and the rights and
obligations of Lessor and Lessee shall be determined in accordance with the laws
of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, except as to matters under which the laws
of a State in which a respective Facility is located, or under applicable
procedural conflicts of laws rules, require the application of laws of such
other State, in which case the laws or conflicts of laws rules, as the case may
be, of such State shall govern to the extent required.

      Lessee hereby consents to personal jurisdiction in the courts of any State
in which a Facility is located and the United States District Court for the
District in which any portion of the Leased Property is situated as well as to
the jurisdiction of all courts from which an appeal may be taken from the
aforesaid courts, for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding
arising out of or with respect to any of the

Lease Documents, the negotiation and/or consummation of the transactions
evidenced by the Lease Documents, Lessor's relationship with any member of the
Leasing Group in connection with the transactions evidenced by the Lease
Documents and/or the performance of any obligation or the exercise of any remedy
under any of the Lease Documents and expressly waives any and all objections
Lessee may have as to venue in any of such courts.

      24.12 General.  Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary
notwithstanding, all claims against, and liabilities of, Lessee or Lessor
arising prior to any date of termination of this Lease or any of the other Lease
Documents shall survive such termination.

      If any provision of this Lease or any of the other Lease Documents or any
application thereof shall be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this
Lease or the other applicable Lease Document, as the case may be, and any other
application of such term or provision shall not be affected thereby.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto that if
any provision of any of this Lease is capable of two (2) constructions, one of
which would render the provision void and the other of which would render the
provision valid, then such provision shall be construed in accordance with the
construction which renders such provision valid.

      If any late charges provided for in any provision of this Lease or any of
the other Lease Documents are based upon a rate in excess of the maximum rate
permitted by applicable law, the parties agree that such charges shall be fixed
at the maximum permissible rate.

      Lessee waives all presentments, demands for performance, notices of
nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, and notices
of acceptance and waives all notices of the existence, creation, or incurring of
new or additional obligations, except as to all of the foregoing as expressly
provided for herein.



      THE UNDERSIGNED LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT FULLY UNDERSTANDS THE
CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT CONTAINED IN SECTION 16.2(e) HEREOF AND THAT THE
LESSOR-LESSEE RELATIONSHIP CREATED


                                     -139-

HEREBY IS COMMERCIAL IN NATURE AND THAT THE UNDERSIGNED WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A
HEARING WHICH WOULD OTHERWISE BE A CONDITION TO LESSOR'S OBTAINING THE JUDGMENTS
AUTHORIZED BY SECTION 16.2(e).
