                  discharged or terminated), nor has any Assignor performed any
                  act or executed any other instrument which might prevent the
                  Assignee from exercising its rights with respect to the

                  upon the part of the relevant issuer thereof; and

         (d)      the date of expiration of the term of any Permit or Contract.

         6. Limitations on Right of the Assignors to Deal with the Permits or
Contracts. The following are additional conditions of this Assignment:

         (a)      except as may otherwise be required in the ordinary course of
                  business or as may be permitted by the Lease, none of the
                  Assignors shall amend, cancel, abridge, surrender, terminate,
                  change, alter, revise, replace, rescind or otherwise modify
                  any of the Permits or Contracts or release any of the issuers
                  thereof or parties thereto from liability or withhold payment
                  of charges, without the prior written consent of the Assignee,
                  in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably
                  withheld;

         (b)      none of the Assignors shall execute any other assignment of
                  its interest in, to or under any of the Permits or Contracts
                  assigned hereby, or consent to any assignment thereof;
                  provided, however that the Lessee may assign its interest in
                  the Permits and Contracts, subject to the terms of this
                  Agreement and the liens and security interests created hereby,
                  to any Sublessee permitted under the terms of the Lease, as
                  long as, concurrently with any such assignment, any such
                  transferee executes and delivers to the Assignee any documents
                  and instruments reasonably requested by the Assignee to
                  evidence such transferee's agreement to comply with the terms
                  hereof and to perfect or continue and preserve the Assignee's
                  liens and security interest in the Permits and Contracts;

         (c)      none of the Assignors shall attempt to transfer or relocate
                  any of the Permits to any location other than the Leased
                  Property;


                                     - 6 -
<PAGE>
         (d)      none of the Assignors shall grant or suffer any lien, charge,
                  encumbrance or judgment, whether voluntary or involuntary,

                  or Contracts;

         (e)      each Assignor shall perform or cause to be performed all of
                  its material covenants and agreements under each of the
                  Permits and Contracts so as to cause the same to remain in
                  full force and effect. Without limiting the foregoing, the
                  Assignors shall continue to make or cause to be made all
                  payments necessary to maintain the effectiveness and validity
                  of all Permits and Contracts, subject to the right of the
                  Lessee to contest the same pursuant to the provisions of the
                  Lease. The Assignors shall give prompt notice to the Assignee
                  of any notice alleging a default by any Assignor of any
                  obligation under any Permit or Contract received from any
                  issuer thereof or from any other Person that is a party
                  thereto and shall furnish the Assignee with complete copies of
                  said notice; and

         (f)      if requested by the Assignee, the Assignors shall enforce each
                  Permit and Contract and all rights and remedies available to
                  the Assignors against the issuer of or any party to any Permit
                  or Contract in the event that the Assignee determines, in the
                  Assignee's reasonable discretion, that any action taken by the
                  issuer of or any party to any Permit or Contract threatens the
                  validity or effectiveness thereof.

         7. Effect of Assignment. This Assignment constitutes the granting by
the Assignor of a security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted
in each state where any portion of the Leased Property is located of the right,
title, and interest of the Assignors in and to the Permits and Contracts. This
Assignment is subject expressly to the terms, conditions and provisions of the
Permits and Contracts and all applicable Legal Requirements, 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 the facility-patient relationship and the physician-patient privilege. To the
extent the Assignee is not permitted by applicable law or the terms, conditions
or provisions of any of the Permits or Contracts to take a security interest in
any of the Permits or Contracts, the


                                     - 7 -
<PAGE>
Assignors hereby agree to execute any and all other documents deemed necessary
or advisable by the Assignee to give the Assignee such interest in such Permit
or Contract as is allowed or allowable under law or the terms, conditions or
provisions of such Permit or Contract. In addition to and not in limitation of
the other rights of the Assignee hereunder, upon the occurrence of a Lease
Default, the Assignee shall have, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and
the terms, conditions and provisions of the Permits and Contracts, with respect
to the right, title and interest of each Assignor in the Permits and Contracts,
all of the rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as
enacted in the states where any portion of the Leased Property is located,
including, without limitation, a right to sell the same at public or private
sale. The Assignee shall give the Assignor reasonable notice of the time and
place of any public sale thereof or of the time after which any private sale or
other intended dispositions thereof is to be made. The requirement of reasonable
notice shall be met if such notice is mailed to the Assignors, by certified
mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, at least ten (10) days before
the time of the sale or disposition.

         8. Events of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an Event
of Default hereunder:

         (a)      the occurrence of any Lease Default; and

         (b)      if any representation or warranty by the Assignors contained
                  in this Assignment proves to be false or misleading in any
                  material respect as of the date hereof.

         9. Rights of the Assignee Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default and at any time thereafter (without in any way waiving such
Event of Default), at the Assignee's option and without notice or demand of any
kind, and without regard to the adequacy of security for the complete payment or
performance of the Obligations, the Assignee may exercise any or all of the
following remedies, either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any
action or proceeding, or by a receiver appointed by a court:

         (a)      declare all of the Lease Obligations immediately due and
                  payable;


                                     - 8 -
<PAGE>
         (b)      to the extent permitted by applicable law and the terms,
                  conditions and provisions of the applicable Permits and
                  Contracts, with or without taking possession of all or any
                  portion of the Leased Property, exercise any and all rights or
                  privileges granted by or permitted under, and enjoy all
                  benefits of, the Permits and Contracts and to otherwise
                  exercise any and all rights assigned to the Assignee
                  hereunder;

         (c)      to the extent permitted by applicable law and the terms,
                  conditions and provisions of the applicable Permits and
                  Contracts, institute any legal or equitable action (in either
                  any Assignor's or the Assignee's name) which the Assignee, in
                  its sole and absolute discretion, deems desirable to collect
                  any income or proceeds from any of the Permits or Contracts;
                  and

         (d)      exercise any other rights and remedies permitted to the
                  Assignee under applicable law.

         Any amounts advanced by the Assignee in connection with the Permits and
Contracts and all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees and expenses and court costs reasonably incurred in connection therewith,
shall be a demand obligation and, to the extent permitted under applicable law,
shall be added to the Lease Obligations and shall be secured hereby as fully and
effectively and with the same priority as every other obligation of the
Assignors secured hereby and, if not paid within ten (10) days after demand,
shall thereafter, to the extent then permitted by applicable law, bear interest
at the Overdue Rate until the date of payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so
long as there shall exist no Event of Default hereunder, the Assignors shall
have the right, subject to the terms and conditions of this Assignment, to
exercise any and all rights and privileges granted by or permitted under, and
enjoy all benefits of, the Permits and Contracts.

         10. Effect of Notice. A written notice made upon the issuer of or any
party to any Permit or Contract by the Assignee stating that a Lease Default
exists and that the Assignee has succeeded to all of any Assignor's right, title
and interest in and to such Permit or Contract shall be sufficient notice to
such issuer or other party of such circumstances without the


                                     - 9 -
<PAGE>
necessity for any consent by such Assignor. Each Assignor hereby waives any
claim whatsoever against any such issuer or contracting party for any action
taken by any such issuer or contracting party at the written request of the
Assignee pursuant to the terms of this Assignment.

         11. Liability. This Assignment shall not operate to place
responsibility upon the Assignee for the care, control, maintenance, management,
operation or repair of all or any portion of the Leased Property, nor for the
carrying out of any of the terms and conditions of any of the Permits or
Contracts unless such responsibility is specifically assumed by the Assignee in
writing; nor shall it operate to make the Assignee responsible or liable for any
waste committed on or at the Leased Property (or any portion thereof), any
dangerous or defective condition of or relating to any portion of the Leased
Property, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of
all or any portion of the Leased Property resulting in loss, injury or death to
any licensee, employee or any other Person, whether or not such Person is
connected with the Leased Property (or any portion thereof); provided, however
that the foregoing shall not be deemed to exculpate the Assignee from any
liability resulting from the Assignee's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Nothing herein contained shall be construed to bind the Assignee to the
performance of any of the terms and provisions contained in any of the Permits
or Contracts or to otherwise impose any obligation whatsoever on the Assignee
unless such responsibility is specifically assumed by the Assignee in writing.

         12. Covenant of the Assignee. Upon the complete payment and performance
of the Lease Obligations, provided that no Related Party Default has occurred
nor any event which with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both
would constitute a Related Party Default, this Assignment shall be deemed
terminated and released by the Assignee without further action and shall
thereupon be of no further force or effect. The Assignors agree that an
affidavit, certificate, letter or statement of any officer, agent or attorney of
the Assignee indicating that any part of the Lease Obligations remains
outstanding shall be deemed prima facie evidence of the validity, effectiveness
and continuing force of this Assignment and any Person may and is hereby
authorized to rely thereon.
