the amount of the accrued liabilities of Transferors as of December 31, 2000
(the "Payables") less (C) the aggregate amount of the Mechanics Liens as set

                                      -4-
<PAGE>   5
Closing Schedule sets forth in reasonable detail Transferors' best estimate of
the amount of the Payables and the net book value of the Transferred Assets.
Immediately following the Effective Date, Transferors shall sell, transfer and

Payables and (ii) payment information for each creditor or vendor listed on the
open accounts payable report, including the name and address of the creditor or

receipt of the Check Run, New Operators and Landlords or Landlords' designee
shall be entitled to review and request copies of the books and records and
supporting material relating to the Payables, to the extent reasonably necessary
to enable New Operators and Landlords or Landlords' designee to verify the Check
Run. After New Operators and Landlords or Landlords' designee have verified the
Check Run to their satisfaction, New Operators or Landlords or Landlords'
designee shall promptly deliver payment to the creditors or vendors in
accordance with the Check Run. Transferors hereby represent and warrant that
other than the Payables set forth on the Closing Schedule, as of December 31,
2000, there were no liabilities of any nature, whether accrued, unmatured,
absolute, contingent or otherwise, and whether due or to become due, probable of

and representatives to have reasonable access to (upon reasonable prior notice
and during normal business hours) the books and records and supporting material
of the Facilities relating to the Transferred Assets and the Payables, to the
extent reasonably necessary to enable New Operators and Landlords or Landlords'
designee to verify the Transferred Assets and the Payables. The Closing Schedule
shall be deemed to be accepted by New Operators and Landlords or Landlords'
designee and shall be final and binding for all purposes of this Agreement
unless New Operators and Landlords or Landlords' designee, within thirty (30)
days following the Effective Date, give notice to Transferors stating the items
as to which New Operators and Landlords or Landlords' designee take exception
("Objections"). If an Objection is disputed by


                                      -5-
<PAGE>   6
Transferors, then the parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such
dispute. If after a period of thirty (30) days following the date on which New
Operators and Landlords or Landlords' designee delivered the Objections, any
Objection still remains disputed, then Transferors, New Operators and Landlords
or Landlords' designee shall together choose an independent firm of public
accountants of nationally recognized standing to resolve such remaining
Objections. The accounting firm shall act as an arbitrator and shall have the
power and authority to determine those issues still in dispute. The accounting
firm shall use the following standards in the evaluation of any Objection
regarding a Transferred Asset: (i) existence, and presence at or proper
attribution to one of the Facilities, of the Transferred Asset, (ii) proper
recording on the books of the appropriate entity of the Transferred Asset, (iii)
appropriate method and useful life used in depreciating the Transferred Asset,
and (iv) appropriate classification of the Transferred Asset in one of the
classifications included in the definition of "Transferred Asset." The
determination of the accounting firm shall be final and binding. The fees and
expenses of the accounting firm shall be paid equally by Transferors and New
Operators or Landlords or Landlords' designee.

                  3.3 Within ten (10) days following resolution of all
Objections, (i) if the Transfer Consideration is an amount greater than zero,
then New Operators or Landlords or Landlords' designee shall pay the amount of
the excess to Transferors, by wire transfer or certified check or (ii) if the
Transfer Consideration is an amount less than zero, then Transferors or BCC on
behalf of Transferors shall pay the amount of the deficiency to New Operators or
Landlords or Landlords' designee, by wire transfer or certified check; provided,
however, that if Transferors and BCC are unable to pay the amount of such
deficiency, Transferors and New Operators or Landlords or Landlords' designee
shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon the terms of a promissory note to be
executed by BCC and/or Transferors (at the option of New Operators and Landlords
or Landlords' designee) in favor of New Operators or Landlords or Landlords'
designee in the amount of such deficiency.

                  3.4 For a period of sixty (60) days following the Effective
Date, Transferors shall use their best efforts to cause all Mechanics Liens to
be released and removed. In the event that any Mechanics Lien remains
outstanding after such sixty (60) day period, New Operators or Landlords or
Landlords' designee shall have the option, but not the obligation, upon


                                      -6-
<PAGE>   7
five (5) days written notice to Transferors, to pay the amount of or otherwise
satisfy or settle such outstanding Mechanics Lien and take any actions necessary
to cause the removal and release of such Mechanics Lien. Within five (5) days
following the removal or release of any Mechanics Lien at any time through the
efforts of Transferors and to the satisfaction of New Operators and Landlords or
Landlords' designee, New Operators or Landlords or Landlords' designee shall pay
Transferors the applicable amount of such removed and released Mechanics Lien as
set forth on Schedule 3, by wire transfer or certified check. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if (i) BCC and/or Transferors have any outstanding obligation to
New Operators or Landlords or Landlords' designee pursuant to Section 3.3, in
the form of a promissory note or otherwise (the "Transfer Consideration
Deficiency"), then New Operators and Landlords or Landlords' designee shall have
no obligation to deliver the applicable payment amount of such removed and
released Mechanics Lien to Transferors and (ii) New Operators and Landlords or
Landlords' designee shall apply the amount of such payment against any
outstanding Transfer Consideration Deficiency. In the event that the amount of
any such removed and released Mechanics Lien applied against the Transfer
Consideration Deficiency exceeds the amount of the Transfer Consideration
Deficiency, New Operators or Landlords or Landlords' designee shall pay
Transferors the amount of such excess by wire transfer or certified check within
ten (10) days following the removal and release of such Mechanics Lien in
accordance with the provisions set forth above. In the event that Transferors do
not cause any Mechanics Lien to be released and removed within the sixty (60)
day period following the Effective Date and New Operators or Landlords or
Landlords' designee subsequently pay the amount of or otherwise satisfy or
settle such outstanding Mechanics Lien in accordance with the provisions set
forth above, then Transferors shall have no right to any payment or offset
against any Transfer Consideration for the applicable amount of such Mechanics
Lien as set forth on Schedule 3.

                  4.1. Within fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date,

parties for such Resident Property in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.

authorities in the event the Resident Property delivered by Transferors to New
Operators or Landlords' designee pursuant to Section 4.2 are demonstrated to be
less than the full amount of the Resident Property for such resident as of the
Effective Date, for inaccuracies in the accounting and inventory provided by
Transferors, or for claims which arise from actions or omissions of Transferors
with respect to the Resident Property on or before the Effective Date.

                  4.4. Transferors shall have no responsibility to the

obligation to offer to employ Transferors' employees that work at each of the
Facilities. Transferors shall use their best efforts to assist New Operators or
Landlords' designee in their efforts to employ any of Transferors' employees.

designee assuming responsibility for the payment of any invoices that describe
goods or services provided to or expenses incurred by the Facilities on and
after the Termination Date.

                  7.2 All such prorations shall be made on the basis of actual
days elapsed in the relevant accounting or revenue period and shall be based on
the most recent information available to Transferors. Utility charges that are
not metered and read on the Termination Date shall be estimated based on prior
charges, and shall be re-prorated upon receipt of statements therefor.

                  7.3 All amounts owing from one party hereto to the other party
hereto that require adjustment after the Termination Date shall be settled
within thirty (30) days after the Termination Date or, in the event the
information necessary for such adjustment is not available within said thirty
(30) day period, then as soon thereafter as practicable.

         8.       Access to Records.

                  8.1. On the Takeover Date, Transferors shall deliver to New
Operators or Landlords' designee all of the records of the Facilities relating
to the period after the Termination Date. Nothing herein shall be construed as
precluding Transferors from retaining copies of the financial records that
relate to their operations at the Facilities and/or the originals of any
proprietary materials related to their overall corporate operations that are not
necessary to the efficient operation of the Facilities.

                  8.2. From and after the Takeover Date and for a period of five
(5) years thereafter, New Operators or Landlords' designee shall allow
Transferors and its agents and representatives to have reasonable access to
(upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours), and to make
copies of, the books and records and supporting material of the Facilities
relating to the period prior to and including the Takeover Date, to the extent
reasonably necessary to enable Transferors to among other things investigate and
defend malpractice, employee or other claims, to file or defend tax returns, to
verify accounts receivable collections due Transferors.

                  8.3. Transferors shall be entitled to remove the originals of
any records delivered to New Operators or Landlords' designee, for purposes of
litigation involving a resident or employee to whom such record relates, if an
officer of or counsel for Transferor certifies that such original must be
produced in order to comply with applicable law or the order of a court of
competent jurisdiction in connection with such litigation. Any record so removed
shall promptly be returned to New Operators or Landlords' designee following its
use, and nothing herein shall be interpreted to prohibit New Operators or
Landlords' designee from retaining copies of any such documents.

                  8.4. New Operators or Landlords on behalf of any designee of
Landlords agree to maintain such books, records and other material comprising
records of the Facilities' operations prior to the Takeover Date that have been
received by New Operators or Landlords' designee from Transferors or otherwise,
including, but not limited to, resident records and records of resident funds,
to the extent required by law, but in no event less than three (3) years, and
shall, at Transferors' request, allow Transferors a reasonable opportunity to
remove such documents, at Transferors' expense, at such time after such record
retention period as may be required by law as New Operators or Landlords'
designee shall decide to dispose of such documents.

         9.       Contracts.

                  9.1 Transferors do hereby assign, and New Operators or
Landlords' or Landlords' designee do hereby assume and agree to be bound by all
of the terms and conditions of, Transferors' interest and obligations under the
resident agreements relating to the Facilities and the sublease agreements
identified in Schedule 4 hereto (collectively, the "Assumed Contracts"), such
assignment and assumption to be effective on and as of the Termination Date.
Transferors will cooperate with New Operators or Landlords' designee in
obtaining any required consent, waiver, release or approval in connection with
the assignment to and assumption by New Operators or Landlords' designee of
Transferors' interests under the Assumed Contracts.

                  9.2 Schedule 5 sets forth a list of operating contracts and
equipment financing agreements relating to the Facilities (collectively, the
"Operating Contracts"). Transferors hereby represent and warrant that there are
no material operating contracts or equipment financing agreements relating to
the Facilities other than the Operating Contracts.


                                      -14-
<PAGE>   15
Within five (5) days following the Effective Date, Transferors shall provide a
copy of each Operating Contract to New Operators or Landlords or Landlords'
designee. Within two (2) weeks following the Effective Date, New Operators or
Landlords or Landlords' designee shall notify Transferors as to which Operating
Contracts New Operators or Landlords or Landlords' designee desire to reject
(the "Rejected Operating Contracts"). Immediately following such notification,
Transferors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to terminate all
Rejected Operating Contracts in accordance with the terms thereof. Effective on
and as of the date Transferors receive notification regarding the Rejected
Operating Contracts, Transferors agree to assign, and New Operators or
Landlords' or Landlords' designee agree to assume and be bound by all of the
terms and conditions of, Transferors' interest and obligations under all
Operating Contracts other than the Rejected Operating Contracts (the "Assumed
Operating Contracts"). Transferors will cooperate with New Operators or
Landlords' designee in obtaining any required consent, waiver, release or
approval in connection with the assignment to and assumption by New Operators or
Landlords' designee of Transferors' interests under the Assumed Operating
Contracts. Landlords and New Operators acknowledge and agree that the costs and
expenses relating to the Operating Contracts for the period immediately
following the Termination Date and ending on the Takeover Date shall be a
pass-through cost of the Facilities in accordance with Section 10 of the Interim
Management Agreements.

                  9.3 Except as specifically set forth in Section 10 of the
Interim Management Agreements, nothing herein shall be construed as imposing any
liability on New Operators or Landlords' designee with respect to any
obligations under the Assumed Contracts and the Operating Contracts which relate
to the period on or prior to the applicable date of assignment of such contracts
even if the same are not payable until after such date of assignment, it being
specifically understood and agreed that New Operators' or Landlords or
Landlords' designee's liability shall be limited to its acts and omissions
thereunder from and after the applicable date of assignment of such contracts.

                  9.4 Transferors hereby represent and warrant that all Assumed
Contracts and Operating Contracts were entered into in the ordinary course of
business upon commercially reasonable terms in arm's length transactions.

         10. Policy and Procedure Manuals. Subject to the terms of


                                      -15-
<PAGE>   16
the License Agreement, Transferors agree to leave their policy and procedure
manuals and other proprietary material at the Facilities for a period of ninety
(90) days after the Takeover Date and New Operators or Landlords on behalf of
any designee of Landlords agree to forward such manuals to a location designated
by Transferors, at New Operators' or Landlords' designee's sole cost and
expense, at the end of such ninety (90) day period, it being understood and
agreed that the maintenance of such manuals until new manuals are delivered to
the Facilities by New Operators or Landlords' designee is critical to the
ongoing compliance of the Facilities after the Takeover Date with applicable
licensure and certification laws.

         11. Representations and Warranties. Each of Landlords, New Operators
and Transferors represent and warrant as follows:

                  11.1 Landlords and New Operators have all necessary power and
authority to enter into this Agreement and to execute all documents and
instruments referred to herein or contemplated hereby and all necessary action
has been taken to authorize the individuals executing this Agreement, the
Termination Agreement, the Interim Management Agreements and the License
Agreement to do so. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and
delivered by Landlords and New Operators and is enforceable against Landlords
and New Operators in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability
may be limited by applicable bankruptcy laws and general principals of equity.

                  11.2 Transferors hereby represent and warrant that Transferors
have all necessary power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to
execute all documents and instruments referred to herein or contemplated hereby
and to consummate the transaction provided for herein, including, but not
limited to, the transfer to Landlords of the Tenants' Personal Property and the
transfer to New Operators or Landlords' designee of the personal property
described in Sections 2.2 and 2.4, and all necessary action has been taken to
authorize the individuals executing this Agreement, the Termination Agreement,
the Interim Management Agreements and the License Agreement to do so. This
Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Transferors and is

enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy laws and general
principals of equity.

                  12.1 Notwithstanding the indemnification obligations of
Transferors pursuant to the Interim Management Agreements, Transferors and BCC
hereby indemnify and agree to defend and hold harmless New Operators, Landlords
and any other designee of Landlords and their respective directors, officers,

Pass-Through Employee Liabilities) arising out of facts occurring at any time
before the Takeover Date, including, but not limited to, all Employee
Liabilities relating to the termination of all employees on the Takeover Date.

                  12.2 New Operators, Landlords and Landlords on behalf of any
designee of Landlords hereby indemnify and agree to defend and hold harmless
Transferors and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents,
successors and assigns from and against any and all demands, claims, causes of
action, fines, penalties, damages (including consequential damages), losses,
liabilities (including strict liability), judgments, and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and other professionals' fees and
court costs) incurred in connection with or arising from: (i) a breach by New

and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) the acts or omissions of New
Operators or Landlords' designee under the Assumed Contracts and the Operating
Contracts after the Effective Date, (iii) the occupancy or operation of the

the contractors, agents, employees, invitees or visitors of New Operators or
Landlords' designee with respect to the Facilities after the Effective Date.

                  12.3 The foregoing indemnification obligations shall survive
this Agreement. All matters arising from an indemnified party's negligence,
gross negligence or willful misconduct are excluded from the scope of the
indemnification of such party set forth in Sections 12.1 and 12.2.

         13.      Transfer of Licenses.

                  13.1 New Operators or Landlords' designee shall use their best
efforts to obtain all necessary licenses and certifications to operate the
Facilities as ALFs as soon as reasonably practicable.

                  13.2 Transferors agree to cooperate fully with New Operators
or Landlords' designee to accomplish the transfer of such management and
operation of the Facilities upon the Takeover Date, without materially
interrupting the business or operation of the Facilities. Transferors shall not
commit any act or be remiss in the undertaking of any act that would jeopardize
any licensure or certification of the Facilities, and Transferors shall, at the
time of the Takeover Date and to the extent permitted by applicable law, comply
with the reasonable requests of New Operators or Landlords' designee for an
orderly transfer of the ALF or any other applicable Facility license or
certifications. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Transferors shall not be
obligated to provide any representations or warranties regarding the operation
or condition of the Facilities in favor of New Operators or Landlords or
Landlords' designee with respect to any of the matters that Transferors have
been released from under the Termination Agreement.
