FOR
      VALUE
      RECEIVED, EMERITUS CORPORATION, a Washington corporation (“Buyer”) promises to
      pay in lawful money of the United States of America to the order of CP ’02 POOL,
      LLC (“CP”) and FSPP FRETUS I, L.L.C. and FSPP FRETUS II, L.L.C. (together “FSPP
      Fretus” and together with CP, “Sellers”), the principal sum of Two Million Five
      Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000) together with interest as provided herein,
      payable upon the earlier of either of the following:




1.
            Upon
                Closing of the sale of Membership Interests pursuant to that certain
                Purchase and Sale Agreement (Membership Interests) by and among Buyer,
                Sellers and Fretus Investors LLC of even date herewith (the “Purchase
                Agreement”); or




2.
            Upon
                the termination of the Purchase Agreement by Sellers due to the material
                breach by Buyer of any of its warranties, representations, covenants,
                agreements or obligations thereunder, as provided in Section 9.1
                of the
                Purchase Agreement.




This
      Note
      is executed in connection with the Purchase Agreement, and all capitalized
      terms
      used herein which are not defined in this Note shall have the meanings as set
      forth in the Purchase Agreement.




Buyer
      waives presentment for payment, demand, notice of nonpayment, notice of protest,
      and protest of this Note, and all other notices in connection with the delivery,
      acceptance, performance, default, dishonor, or enforcement of the payment of
      this Note. Buyer agrees that its liability hereunder shall not be affected
      by
      any other indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver, or modification
      granted or consented to by Sellers.




This
      note
      shall bear simple interest at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum.




14







Any
      notice, request or communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in
      writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered
      or
      mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or by recognized
      overnight courier or personal delivery at the respective addresses of the
      parties as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.




In
      the
      event that the Buyer fails to pay when due all amounts due hereunder, any of
      the
      Sellers may, by written notice to Buyer, declare this Note due and payable,
      whereupon this Note shall be due and payable without presentment, demand,
      protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived
      by
      Buyer.




Buyer
      shall reimburse Sellers for all costs incurred by Sellers, including without
      limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, in the enforcement and collection of any
      amounts under this Note. All payments received on this Note shall be applied
      first to any cost of collection, second to payment of accrued interest and
      third
      to the payment of principal. If not paid when due, all accrued but unpaid
      interest shall be added to the outstanding principal balance of this Note and
      shall thereafter bear interest at the rate provided for above.




This
      Note
      shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
      of
      Washington, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the State
      of
      Washington or any other state.




ORAL
      AGREEMENTS OR ORAL COMMITMENTS TO LOAN MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT, OR TO FORBEAR
      FROM
      ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE UNDER WASHINGTON LAW.
