absolute, continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not a guaranty of
collection. This Guaranty may not be revoked by Guarantor and shall continue to
be effective with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising or created after
any attempted revocation by Guarantor and after (if Guarantor is a natural
person) Guarantor's death (in which event this Guaranty shall be binding upon
Guarantor's estate and Guarantor's legal representatives and heirs). The fact
that at any time or from time to time the Guaranteed Obligations may be
increased or reduced shall not release or discharge the obligation of Guarantor
to Lender with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guaranty may be
enforced by Lender and any subsequent holder of the Note and shall not be
discharged by the assignment or negotiation of all or part of the Note.

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

                  1.4      GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS NOT REDUCED BY OFFSET. The
Guaranteed Obligations and the liabilities and obligations of Guarantor to
Lender hereunder, shall not be reduced, discharged or released because or by
reason of any existing or future offset, claim or defense of Borrower, or any
other party, against Lender or against payment of the Guaranteed Obligations,
whether such offset, claim or defense arises in connection with the Guaranteed
Obligations (or the transactions creating the Guaranteed Obligations) or
otherwise.

                  1.5      PAYMENT BY GUARANTOR. If all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations shall not be punctually paid when due, whether at demand,
maturity, acceleration or otherwise, Guarantor shall, immediately upon demand by
Lender, and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of
non-payment, notice of intention to accelerate the maturity, notice of
acceleration of the maturity, or any other notice whatsoever, pay in lawful
money of the United States of America, the amount due on the Guaranteed
Obligations to Lender at Lender's address as set forth herein. Such demand(s)
may be made at any time coincident with or after the time for payment of all or
part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and may be made from time to time with
respect to the same or different items of Guaranteed Obligations. Such demand
shall be deemed made, given and received in accordance with the notice
provisions hereof.

                  1.6      NO DUTY TO PURSUE OTHERS. It shall not be necessary
for Lender (and Guarantor hereby waives any rights which Guarantor may have to
require Lender), in order to enforce the obligations of Guarantor hereunder,
first to (a) institute suit or exhaust its remedies against Borrower or others
liable on the Loan or the Guaranteed Obligations or any other person, (b)
enforce Lender's rights against any collateral which shall ever have been given
to secure the Loan, (c) enforce Lender's rights against any other guarantors of
the Guaranteed Obligations, (d) join Borrower or any others liable on the
Guaranteed Obligations in any action seeking to enforce this Guaranty, (e)
exhaust any remedies available to Lender against any collateral which shall ever
have been given to secure the Loan, or (f) resort to any other means of
obtaining payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Lender shall not be required to
mitigate damages or take any other action to reduce, collect or enforce the
Guaranteed Obligations.

                  1.7      WAIVERS. Guarantor agrees to the provisions of the
Loan Documents, and hereby waives notice of (a) any loans or advances made by
Lender to Borrower, (b) acceptance of this Guaranty, (c) any amendment or
extension of the Note, the Loan Agreement or of any other Loan Documents, (d)
the execution and delivery by Borrower and Lender of any other loan or credit
agreement or of Borrower's execution and delivery of any promissory notes or
other documents arising under the Loan Documents or in connection with the
Properties, (e) the occurrence of any breach by Borrower or an Event of Default,
(f) Lender's transfer or disposition of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part
thereof, (g) sale or foreclosure (or posting or advertising for sale or
foreclosure) of any collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, (h) protest,
proof of non-payment or default by Borrower and (i) any other action at any time
taken or omitted by Lender, and, generally, all demands and notices of every
kind in connection with this Guaranty, the Loan Documents, any documents or
agreements evidencing, securing or relating to any of the Guaranteed
Obligations.

                  1.8      PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. In the event that Guarantor
should breach or fail to timely perform any provisions of this Guaranty,
Guarantor shall, immediately upon demand by Lender, pay Lender all costs and
expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys'

                                      -4-

fees) incurred by Lender in the enforcement hereof or the preservation of
Lender's rights hereunder. The covenant contained in this Section shall survive
the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations.

                  1.9      EFFECT OF BANKRUPTCY. In the event that, pursuant to
any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other debtor relief
law, or any judgment, order or decision thereunder, Lender must rescind or
restore any payment, or any part thereof, received by Lender in satisfaction of
the Guaranteed Obligations, as set forth herein, any prior release or discharge
from the terms of this Guaranty given to Guarantor by Lender shall be without
effect, and this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect. It is the
intention of Borrower and Guarantor that Guarantor's obligations hereunder shall
not be discharged except by Guarantor's performance of such obligations and then
only to the extent of such performance.

                  1.10     WAIVER OF SUBROGATION, REIMBURSEMENT AND
CONTRIBUTION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Guaranty, Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, releases and
abrogates any and all rights it may now or hereafter have under any agreement,
at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating the
Guarantor to the rights of Lender), to assert any claim against or seek
contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from Borrower
or any other party liable for payment of any or all of the Guaranteed
Obligations for any payment made by Guarantor under or in connection with this
Guaranty or otherwise.

                  1.11     BORROWER. The term "BORROWER" as used herein shall
include any new or successor corporation, association, partnership (general or
limited), joint venture, trust or other individual or organization formed as a
result of any merger, reorganization, sale, transfer, devise, gift or bequest of
Borrower or any interest in Borrower.

                      EVENTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES NOT REDUCING

<PAGE>

                  3.1      BENEFIT. Guarantor is an affiliate of Borrower, is

respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.

                  3.2      FAMILIARITY AND RELIANCE. Guarantor is familiar with,
and has independently reviewed books and records regarding, the financial
condition of the Borrower and is familiar with the value of any and all

Guaranteed Obligations; however, Guarantor is not relying on such financial
condition or the collateral as an inducement to enter into this Guaranty.

                  3.3      NO REPRESENTATION BY LENDER. Neither Lender nor any
other party has made any representation, warranty or statement to Guarantor in

contingent liabilities) and debts, and has and will have property and assets
sufficient to satisfy and repay its obligations and liabilities.

                  3.5      LEGALITY. The execution, delivery and performance by
Guarantor of this Guaranty and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereunder do not, and will not, contravene or conflict with any law, statute or
regulation whatsoever to which Guarantor is subject or constitute a default (or
an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default)
under, or result in the breach of, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
charge, lien, or any contract, agreement or other instrument to which Guarantor
is a party or which may be applicable to Guarantor. This Guaranty is a legal and
binding obligation of Guarantor and is enforceable in accordance with its terms,
except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of general application
relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights.

                  3.6      SURVIVAL. All representations and warranties made by
Guarantor herein shall survive the execution hereof.

hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligations of Borrower thereon be
direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or
otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts or liabilities be evidenced by
note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person in
whose favor such debts or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may
hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be
acquired by Guarantor. The Guarantor Claims shall include without limitation all
rights and claims of Guarantor against Borrower (arising as a result of
subrogation or otherwise) as a result of Guarantor's payment of all or a portion
of the Guaranteed

                                      -8-

<PAGE>

Obligations. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Guarantor shall not
receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from Borrower or any other party any
amount upon the Guarantor Claims.

                  4.2      CLAIMS IN BANKRUPTCY. In the event of receivership,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, debtor's relief, or other insolvency
proceedings involving Guarantor as debtor, Lender shall have the right to prove
its claim in any such proceeding so as to establish its rights hereunder and
receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian dividends
and payments which would otherwise be payable upon Guarantor Claims. Guarantor
hereby assigns such dividends and payments to Lender. Should Lender receive, for
application upon the Guaranteed Obligations, any such dividend or payment which
is otherwise payable to Guarantor, and which, as between Borrower and Guarantor,
shall constitute a credit upon the Guarantor Claims, then upon payment to Lender
in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, Guarantor shall become subrogated to the
rights of Lender to the extent that such payments to Lender on the Guarantor
Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Guaranteed Obligations,
and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of the Guaranteed
Obligations which would have been unpaid if Lender had not received dividends or
payments upon the Guarantor Claims.

                  4.3      PAYMENTS HELD IN TRUST. In the event that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guaranty, Guarantor should
receive any funds, payment, claim or distribution which is prohibited by this
Guaranty, Guarantor agrees to hold in trust for Lender an amount equal to the
amount of all funds, payments, claims or distributions so received, and agrees
that it shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds,
payments, claims or distributions so received except to pay them promptly to
Lender, and Guarantor covenants promptly to pay the same to Lender.

                  4.4      LIENS SUBORDINATE. Guarantor agrees that any liens,
security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon
Borrower's assets securing payment of the Guarantor Claims shall be and remain
inferior and subordinate to any liens, security interests, judgment liens,
charges or other encumbrances upon Borrower's assets securing payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations, regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of
Guarantor or Lender presently exist or are hereafter created or attach. Without
the prior written consent of Lender, Guarantor shall not (a) exercise or enforce
any creditor's right it may have against Borrower, or (b) foreclose, repossess,
sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings
(judicial or otherwise, including without limitation the commencement of, or
joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor's relief or
insolvency proceeding) to enforce any liens, mortgages, deeds of trust, security
interests, collateral rights, judgments or other encumbrances on assets of
Borrower held by Guarantor.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

                  5.1      WAIVER. No failure to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, on the part of Lender, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights of
Lender hereunder shall be in addition to all other rights provided by law. No

modification or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor consent to
departure therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing and no such consent or
waiver shall extend beyond the particular case and purpose involved. No notice
or demand given in any case shall constitute a waiver of the right to take other
action in the same, similar or other instances without such notice or demand.

                  5.2      NOTICES. Any notice, demand, statement, request or

accordance with the State of New York and the applicable law of the United
States of America.

                  5.4      INVALID PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Guaranty
is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws
effective during the term of this Guaranty, such provision shall be fully
severable and this Guaranty shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal,
invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Guaranty,
and the remaining provisions of this Guaranty shall remain in full force and
effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provision or by its severance from this Guaranty, unless such continued
effectiveness of this Guaranty, as modified, would be contrary to the basic
understandings and intentions of the parties as expressed herein.

                  5.5      AMENDMENTS. This Guaranty may be amended only by an
instrument in writing executed by the party or an authorized representative of
the party against whom such amendment is sought to be enforced.

                  5.6      PARTIES BOUND; ASSIGNMENT; JOINT AND SEVERAL. This
Guaranty shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors, assigns and legal representatives; provided,
however, that Guarantor may not, without the prior written consent of Lender,
assign any of its rights, powers, duties or obligations hereunder. If Guarantor
consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of
each such person or party shall be joint and several.

                  5.7      HEADINGS. Section headings are for convenience of
reference only and shall in no way affect the interpretation of this Guaranty.

                  5.8      RECITALS. The recital and introductory paragraphs
hereof are a part hereof, form a basis for this Guaranty and shall be considered
prima facie evidence of the facts and documents referred to therein.

                  5.9      COUNTERPARTS. To facilitate execution, this Guaranty
may be executed in as many counterparts as may be convenient or required. It
shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or
that the signature of all Persons required to bind any party, appear on each
counterpart. All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single instrument.
It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Guaranty to produce or account
for more than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or
on behalf of, each of the parties hereto. Any signature page to any counterpart
may be detached from such counterpart without impairing the legal effect of the
signatures thereon and thereafter attached to another counterpart identical
thereto except having attached to it additional signature pages.

                  5.10     RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. If Guarantor becomes liable for
any indebtedness owing by Borrower to Lender, by endorsement or otherwise, other
than under this Guaranty, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or
affected hereby and the rights of Lender hereunder shall be cumulative of any
and all other rights that Lender may ever have against Guarantor. The exercise
by Lender of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other instrument, or at
law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of
any other right or remedy.

LENDER HEREBY AGREE NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT
BY JURY, AND WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY SUCH
RIGHT SHALL NOW OR HEREAFTER EXIST WITH REGARD TO THIS GUARANTY, THE NOTE, THE
LOAN AGREEMENT, THE MORTGAGE, OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY CLAIM,
COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER ACTION ARISING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THIS WAIVER OF

time any payment of the principal of or interest under the Note or any other
amount payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents is rescinded or must be
otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization

to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment has been due but not
made at such time.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                     STATE-SPECIFIC PROVISIONS - CALIFORNIA

                  To the extent this document is enforceable in the State of
California, the laws of the State of California are held to govern this
Agreement and the following provisions shall apply:

                  6.1      PRINCIPLES OF CONSTRUCTION. In the event of any
inconsistencies between the terms and conditions of this Article 6 and the terms
and conditions of this Security Instrument, the terms and conditions of this
Article 6 shall control and be binding.

                  6.2      GUARANTOR. Guarantor acknowledges that it is
guaranteeing the obligations of Borrower to Lender. Accordingly, Guarantor
agrees as follows:

                  (a)      Modifications to Loan and Loan Documents. Guarantor
agrees that Lender may do any of the following without affecting the
enforceability of this Agreement:

                           (i)      take or release additional security for any
         obligation in connection with the Loan Documents;

                           (ii)     discharge or release (by judicial or
         nonjudicial foreclosure, acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or
         otherwise) any party or parties liable under the Loan Documents;

                           (iii)    accept or make compositions or other
         arrangements or file or refrain from filing a claim in any bankruptcy
         proceeding of Borrower, any guarantor of Borrower's obligations under
         the Loan Documents or any pledgor of collateral for any person's
         obligations to Lender; and

                           (iv)     credit payments in such manner and order of
         priority to principal, interest or other obligations as Lender may
         determine.

                  (b)      Waivers.

                           (i)      Guarantor agrees that Lender's right to
         enforce this Agreement is absolute and is not contingent upon the
         genuineness, validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents.
         Guarantor waives all benefits and defenses it may have under California
         Civil Code Section 2810 and agrees that Lender's rights under this
         Agreement shall be enforceable even if Borrower had no liability at the
         time of execution of the Loan Documents or later ceases to be liable.

                           (ii)     Guarantor waives all benefits and defenses
         it may have under California Civil Code Section 2809 and agrees that
         Lender's rights under this Agreement will remain enforceable even if
         the amount secured by this Agreement is larger in amount and more
         burdensome than that for which Borrower is responsible. The
         enforceability of this Agreement against Guarantor shall continue until
         all sums due under the Loan Documents have been paid in full and shall
         not be limited or affected in any way by any

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

         impairment or any diminution or loss of value of any security or
         collateral for Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents, from
         whatever cause, the failure of any security interest in any such
         security or collateral or any disability or other defense of Borrower,
         any guarantor of Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents, any
         other pledgor of collateral for any person's obligations to Lender or
         any other person in connection with Borrower's loan.

                           (iii)    Guarantor waives all benefits and defenses
         it may have under California Civil Code Sections 2845, 2849 and 2850,
         including, without limitation, the right to require Lender to (A)
         proceed against Borrower, any guarantor of Borrower's obligations under
         the Loan Documents, any other pledgor of collateral for any person's
         obligations to Lender or any other person in connection with Borrower's
         loan, (B) proceed against or exhaust any other security or collateral
         Lender may hold, or (C) pursue any other right or remedy for
         Guarantor's benefit, and agrees that Lender may exercise its rights
         under this Agreement or may foreclose against the Mortgaged Property
         without taking any action against Borrower, Guarantor, guarantor of
         Borrower's obligations under the Loan Document, any pledgor of
         collateral for any person's obligations to Lender or any other person
         in connection with Borrower's loan, and without proceeding against or
         exhausting any security or collateral Lender holds.

                           (iv)     Guarantor waives any rights or benefits it
         may have by reason of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a
         which could limit the amount which Lender could recover in a
         foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property to the difference between the
         amount owing under the Loan Documents and the fair value of the
         property or interests sold at a nonjudicial foreclosure sale or sales
         of any other real property held by Lender as security for the
         obligations under the Loan Documents.

                           (v)      Guarantor waives diligence and all demands,
         protests, presentments and notices of protest, dishonor, nonpayment and
         acceptance of this Agreement.

                  (c)      Guarantor Informed of Borrower's Condition. Guarantor
acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to review the Loan Documents, the
value of the security for Borrower's obligations under the Loan Documents and
Borrower's financial condition and ability to satisfy its obligations to Lender.
Guarantor agrees to keep itself fully informed of all aspects of Borrower's
financial condition and the performance of Borrower's obligations to Lender and
agrees that Lender has no duty to disclose to Guarantor any information
pertaining to Borrower or any security for Borrower's obligations under the Loan
Documents.

                  (d)      Waiver of Estoppel Defense. Upon Borrower's default
under the Loan Documents, Lender may elect to foreclose nonjudicially on real
property given by Borrower or others as security under the Loan Documents and
also to exercise its rights under this Agreement. Guarantor acknowledges that
its right to seek reimbursement from Borrower for any amounts paid by Guarantor
to Lender under this Agreement will be eliminated if Lender elects to so
foreclose on Borrower's property. Nevertheless, Guarantor waives any such right
to reimbursement and agrees that a nonjudicial foreclosure by Lender against any
real property security owned by Borrower or others will not affect the
enforceability of this Agreement on

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

Guarantor's interest in the Mortgaged Property. In order to further effectuate
such waiver Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

                  Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an
                  election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of
                  remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to
                  the Mortgaged Property, has destroyed Guarantor's rights of
                  subrogation and reimbursement against Borrower by the
                  operation of Section 580d of the Code of Civil Procedure or
                  otherwise.

                  (e)      Subrogation. Guarantor agrees that its rights of
subrogation and reimbursement against Borrower, its right of subrogation against
the Mortgaged Property or any other collateral or security for Lender's loan to
Borrower or the pledgor of such collateral or security and its right of
contribution from any guarantor or surety of Borrower's obligation sunder the
Loan Documents shall be subordinate to Lender's rights against Borrower, in such
collateral or security, against any such pledgor and against any such guarantor
or surety. Guarantor shall have no such rights of subrogation, reimbursement or
contribution until all amounts due under the Note, the Mortgage and the other
Loan Documents have been paid in full and Lender has released, transferred or
disposed of all of its rights in any collateral or security. Guarantor waives
its rights under California Civil Code Sections 2847, 2848 and 2849 to the
extent inconsistent with the foregoing.

                  (f)      Confirmation of Waivers. In accordance with
California Civil Code Section 2856(c), Guarantor hereby makes the following
waivers:

                           (i)      The guarantor waives all rights and defenses
         that the guarantor may have because the debtor's debt is secured by
         real property. This means, among other things:

                                    (A)      The creditor may collect from the
                           guarantor without first foreclosing on any other real
                           or personal property collateral pledged by the debtor
                           or any other person.

                                    (B)      If the creditor forecloses on any
                           real property collateral pledged by the debtor:

                                             (1)      The amount of the debt may
                                    be reduced only by the price for which the
                                    collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale,
                                    even if the collateral is worth more than
                                    the sale price.

                                             (2)      The creditor may collect
                                    from the guarantor even if the creditor, by
                                    foreclosing on the real property collateral,
                                    has destroyed any right the guarantor may
                                    have to collect from the debtor.

                           (ii)     This is an unconditional and irrevocable
         waiver of any rights and defenses the guarantor may have because the
         debtor's debt is secured by real property.

                                      -15-

         These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights
         or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the
         California Code of Civil Procedures.

         payment to Lender not providing such forms or other documentation an
         amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax.

                  Whenever any Foreign Tax is payable pursuant to applicable law
by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter, Borrower shall send to Lender
an original official receipt, if available, or certified copy thereof showing
payment of such Foreign Tax. Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender for any
incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender which
may result from any failure by Borrower to pay any such Foreign Tax when due to
the appropriate taxing authority or any failure by Borrower to remit to Lender
the required receipts or other required documentary evidence.

                  (f)      If any requirement of law or any change therein or in
the interpretation or application thereon shall hereafter make it unlawful for
Lender to make or maintain a LIBOR Loan as contemplated hereunder (i) the
obligation of Lender hereunder to make a LIBOR Loan or to convert a Prime Rate
Loan to a LIBOR Loan shall be canceled forthwith and (ii) any outstanding LIBOR
Loan shall be converted automatically to a Prime Rate Loan on the next
succeeding Payment Date or within such earlier period as required by law.
Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay Lender, upon demand, any additional
amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any Breakage Costs. Lender's notice
of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

                  (g)      In the event that any change in any requirement of
law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by Lender
with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) hereafter
issued from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

                                       35
<PAGE>

                           (i)      shall hereafter impose, modify or hold
         applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar
         requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in
         or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended
         by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender which is
         not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR hereunder;

                           (ii)     shall hereafter have the effect of reducing
         the rate of return on Lender's capital as a consequence of its
         obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have
         achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
         consideration Lender's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by
         any amount reasonably deemed by Lender to be material; or

                           (iii)    shall hereafter impose on Lender any other
         condition and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the
         cost to Lender of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions
         of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder;

then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay Lender, upon demand, any
additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such additional cost or
reduced amount receivable which Lender deems to be material as reasonably
determined by Lender. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 2.2.3(g), Lender shall provide Borrower with not less
than ninety (90) days notice specifying in reasonable detail the event by reason
of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully
compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount. A certificate as
to any additional costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence
submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error. This provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of
all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

                  (h)      Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and to hold
Lender harmless from any loss or expense which Lender sustains or incurs as a
consequence of (i) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or
interest on a LIBOR Loan, including, without limitation, any such loss or
expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds
obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder, (ii) any prepayment
(whether voluntary or mandatory) of the LIBOR Loan on a day that (a) is not the
Payment Date immediately following the last day of an Interest Period with
respect thereto or (b) is the Payment Date immediately following the last day of
an Interest Period with respect thereto if Borrower did not give the prior
notice of such prepayment required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement,
including, without limitation, such loss or expense arising from interest or
fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain
the LIBOR Loan hereunder and (iii) the conversion (for any reason whatsoever,
whether voluntary or involuntary) of the Applicable Interest Rate from LIBOR
plus the Spread to the Prime Rate plus the Prime Rate Spread with respect to any
portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan then bearing interest at
LIBOR plus the Spread on a date other than the Payment Date immediately
following the last day of an Interest Period, including, without limitation,

                                       36
<PAGE>

such loss or expenses arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders
of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a LIBOR Loan hereunder (the amounts
referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are herein referred to collectively
as the "BREAKAGE COSTS"); provided, however, Borrower shall not indemnify Lender
from any loss or expense arising from Lender's willful misconduct or gross
negligence. This provision shall survive payment of the Note in full and the
satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

                  (i)      Lender shall not be entitled to claim compensation
pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 for any Foreign Taxes, increased cost or
reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder, or any reduced rate of
return, which was incurred or which accrued more than ninety (90) days before
the date Lender notified Borrower of the change in law or other circumstance on
which such claim of compensation is based and delivered to Borrower a written
statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the
additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.2.3, which statement
shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

                  2.2.4    ADDITIONAL COSTS. Lender will use reasonable efforts
(consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to maintain the availability
of the LIBOR Loan and to avoid or reduce any increased or additional costs
payable by Borrower under Section 2.2.3 including, if requested by Borrower, a
transfer or assignment of the Loan to a branch, office or Affiliate of Lender in
another jurisdiction, or a redesignation of its lending office with respect to
the Loan, in order to maintain the availability of the LIBOR Loan or to avoid or
reduce such increased or additional costs, provided that the transfer or
assignment or redesignation (a) would not result in any additional costs,
expenses or risk to Lender that are not reimbursed by Borrower and (b) would not
be disadvantageous in any other respect to Lender as determined by Lender in its
sole discretion.

                  2.2.5    DEFAULT RATE. In the event that, and for so long as,
any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the outstanding
principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, all accrued
and unpaid interest in respect of the Loan and any other amounts due pursuant to
the Loan Documents, shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from
the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods
contained herein.

                  2.2.6    USURY SAVINGS. This Agreement, the Note and the other
Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall
Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of
the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal
liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If, by the
terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time
required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at
a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Applicable Interest Rate or the
Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to
the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal
Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on
account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to
Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan,
shall, to the

                                       37
<PAGE>

extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and
spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that
the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the
Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the
Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

                  SECTION 2.3.      LOAN PAYMENT.

                  2.3.1    PAYMENTS GENERALLY. Borrower shall pay to Lender an
amount equal to the interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of the
Loan for (a) the initial Interest Period to be paid on the Closing Date and (b)
each Interest Period thereafter to be paid on the applicable Payment Date. All
amounts due pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be
payable without setoff, counterclaim, defense or any other deduction whatsoever.

                  2.3.2    PRINCIPAL PAYMENTS.

                  (a)      Commencing on the first Payment Date occurring on
[October 9], 2003, 2003 and continuing on each Payment Date thereafter through
and including the Payment Date which occurs on the second (2nd) anniversary of
the initial Payment Date (October 9, 2005), together with each monthly payment
of interest, Borrower shall make a payment to Lender of principal in the amount
of Two Hundred Eight Thousand and 33/100 Dollars ($208,333.33) (the "MONTHLY
AMORTIZATION AMOUNT").

                  (b)      Commencing in 2004 and during each calendar year
thereafter during the term of the Loan, upon the earlier to occur of (i) April
30th of such year and (ii) not later than ten (10) days following delivery of
the annual financial statements to Lender referred to in and required by Section
5.11(b) with respect to the prior calendar year, Borrower shall make a principal
payment to Lender (each such payment, an "EXCESS CASH FLOW PRINCIPAL PAYMENT")
in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 100% of Excess Cash Flow for the
immediately preceding calendar year and (ii) the positive excess of (x) Ten
Million Dollars ($10,000,000) (or for calendar year 2003, the 2003 Maximum
Amount (as defined below)) plus any Catch-Up Amounts (defined below) with
respect to years prior to the immediately preceding calendar year, if
applicable, over (y) monthly amortization payments made by Borrower to Lender
during such immediately preceding calendar year pursuant to Section 2.3.2(a) or
any other voluntary prepayments (it being understood and agreed that any
prepayment made under Section 2.5 or Section 2.7 shall not be deemed to be a
"voluntary" prepayment). To the extent that, with respect to any calendar year,
the aggregate amount of principal payments under this Section 2.3.2(b) and
Section 2.3.2(a) is less than $10,000,000, the positive excess of $10,000,000
over such payments shall be defined as a "Catch-Up Amount". For purposes of the
foregoing calculation for calendar year 2003, an amount equal to the product of
(I) $10,000,000 multiplied by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of months during 2003 that this Loan is outstanding and the denominator
of which is 12 (the "2003 MAXIMUM AMOUNT") shall be substituted for
"$10,000,000" in such calculation.

                  2.3.3    PAYMENT ON MATURITY DATE. Borrower shall pay to
Lender on the Maturity Date the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, all
accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts due hereunder and under the
Note and the other Loan Documents.

                  2.3.4    LATE PAYMENT CHARGE. If any principal, interest or
any other sums due under the Loan Documents is not paid by Borrower by the date
on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to
the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount
permitted by applicable law in order to defray the expense incurred by Lender in
handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the
loss of the use of such delinquent payment. Any such amount shall be secured by
the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent permitted by
applicable law.

                  2.3.5    METHOD AND PLACE OF PAYMENT. Except as otherwise
specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement
and the Note shall be made to Lender not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City
time, on the date when due and shall be made in lawful money of the United
States of America in immediately available funds at Lender's office or as
otherwise directed by Lender, and any funds received by Lender after such time
shall, for all purposes hereof be deemed to have been paid on the next
succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any
other Loan Document is stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day,
the due date thereof shall be the Business Day immediately preceding such day.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Lender shall
constitute more than one Person, all payments hereunder shall be made to each
constituent Lender on a ratable basis, based upon the principal balance then
outstanding under such Lender's Note

                  SECTION 2.4.      PREPAYMENTS.

                  2.4.1    VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS. Borrower at any time may, at
its option and upon ten (10) days prior notice to Agent, prepay the Debt in
whole or in part; provided that such prepayment is accompanied by (a) all
interest at the Applicable Interest Rate which would have accrued on the amount
of the Loan to be paid through the date of such prepayment; and (b) all other
sums due and payable under this Agreement, the Note, and the other Loan
Documents, including, but not limited to the Breakage Costs, if any, and all of
Lender's costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and
disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection with such prepayment. Any
partial prepayment shall be applied to the last payments of principal due under
the Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, any prepayment made
following the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be accompanied by interest
at the Default Rate which would have accrued on the amount of the Loan to be
paid through the date of such prepayment.

                  (a)      In the event of (i) any Casualty to all or any all or
any portion of the Properties, (ii) any Condemnation of all or any portion of
the Properties, (iii) a Transfer of all or any portion of the Properties in
connection with realization thereon following a Mortgage Loan Event of Default,

Service to be deposited directly into the Mezzanine Deposit Account. On each
date on which Lender actually receives a distribution of Net Liquidation
Proceeds After Debt Service, Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal
balance of the Note in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net
Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service, together with interest through the date
of such prepayment. Any amounts of Net Liquidation Proceeds After Debt Service
in excess of the Debt shall be paid to Borrower. Any prepayment received by
Lender pursuant to this Section 2.4.4(a) on a date other than a Payment Date
shall be held by Lender as collateral security for the Loan in an interest
bearing account, with such interest accruing to the benefit of Borrower, and
shall be applied by Lender on the next Payment Date. No prepayment premium or
fee shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section
2.4.4(a). Any partial prepayment shall be applied to the last payment of
principal due under the Loan.

                  (b)      Borrower shall immediately notify Agent of any
Liquidation Event once Borrower has knowledge of such event. Borrower shall be
deemed to have knowledge of (i) a sale (other than a foreclosure sale) of all or
any portion of the Properties on the date on which a contract of sale for such
sale is entered into, and a foreclosure sale, on the date notice of such
foreclosure sale is given, and (ii) a refinancing of all or any portion of the
Properties (other than as expressly permitted pursuant to this Agreement, it
being understood and agreed that any Property which has been released pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed excluded from the provisions of
this Section), on the date on which a commitment for such refinancing has been
entered into. The provisions of this Section 2.4.4(b) shall not be construed to
contravene in any manner the restrictions and other provisions regarding
refinancing of the Mortgage Loan or Transfer of the Properties set forth in this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Mortgage Loan Documents.

                  SECTION 2.5.      RELEASE. Except as set forth in this Section
2.5, no repayment or prepayment of all or any portion of the Note shall cause,
give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release or
assignment of any Lien of the Pledge Agreement on the Collateral.

                  2.5.1    RELEASE OF COLLATERAL ON PAYMENT IN FULL. Upon
payment in full of all principal and interest due on the Loan and all other
amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms
and provisions of the Note, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the
Lien of the Pledge Agreement on the Collateral shall be released upon written
request by Borrower, and at Borrower's sole cost

                                       40
<PAGE>

and expense, Lender shall execute such reasonable documents as Borrower shall
reasonably request to evidence such release.

                  2.5.2    RELEASE OF INDIVIDUAL PROPERTY. Borrower shall have
the right to cause Mortgage Borrower to engage in the transactions contemplated
by Section 2.5 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement and obtain the release of an
Individual Property from the Lien of the Mortgage thereon (and related Mortgage
Loan Documents), only if all of the following conditions precedent are
satisfied:

                  (a)      Borrower shall have complied with all other
conditions set forth in Section 2.5.1 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement with
respect to such transaction without regard to any waiver by Mortgage Loan Lender
of any such conditions (other than a waiver of any non-material term or
condition);

                  (b)      Borrower shall submit to Agent, not less than thirty
(30) days prior to the date of such release, a letter setting forth the
Individual Property that is the subject of the transaction, along with its
calculation of the ratios referenced in Section 2.5 of the Mortgage Loan
Agreement; and

                  (c)      Borrower shall have paid to Lender an amount equal to
the Mezzanine Loan Release Amount applicable to the released Property and
Mortgage Borrower shall have paid to the holder of Note B the Note B Release
Amount (each as defined in the Mortgage Loan Agreement) applicable to such
Individual Property to be released.

                  2.6.2    LOCKBOX ACCOUNTS. Borrower shall cause Mortgage
Borrower to establish and maintain one or more Lockbox Accounts in accordance
with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement. To the extent that the Mortgage
Loan Agreement is no longer in place, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to
maintain substantially similar accounts required in accordance with the terms of
the Mortgage Loan Agreement or if the Mortgage Loan is refinanced or paid off in
full (without a prepayment of the Loan) and accounts that are required hereunder
are not required under the new mortgage loan, if any, then Borrower shall
maintain hereunder substantially similar accounts, satisfactory to Agent in
accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

                  2.6.3    REVOLVING CREDIT CASH MANAGEMENT. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of Sections 2.6.1 and 2.6.2, provided that (a) the
Revolving Credit Loan is outstanding, (b) amounts on account of
Medicare/Medicaid Receivables and Rents from the Properties are being deposited
with the Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the Revolving Credit Loan
Agreement, and (c) the Revolving Credit Lender is disbursing the proceeds of the
Revolving Credit Loan and any funds deposited with Revolving Credit Lender
pursuant to the Revolving Credit Loan Agreement in the excess

                                       41

Receivables Account and Lockbox Bank to transfer such amounts into the Lockbox
Accounts, respectively, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.6.1 and

and obtain advances under the Guarantor Revolving Credit Loan Agreement on each
Payment Date to pay any shortfall between the amount on deposit in the Mezzanine
Deposit Account on such Payment Date and the amounts payable by Borrower on such
Payment Date.

Mortgage Borrower to establish and maintain a Cash Management Account in
accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

Borrower shall establish and maintain an Eligible Account into which all cash
flow after funding all amounts required under Section 2.6.4 of the Mortgage Loan
Agreement shall be transferred into an account (the "MEZZANINE DEPOSIT
ACCOUNT"), which Mezzanine Deposit Account shall be entitled and shall have the
account number as set forth in the Mezzanine Deposit Account and Securities
Account Control Agreement. Funds on deposit in the Mezzanine Deposit account
shall be transferred to the Mezzanine Securities Account on the next business
day; provided, however, after such time as the total amount on deposit in the
Mezzanine Securities Account is equal to or exceeds the "Pegged Amount" (as such
term is defined in the Mezzanine Cash Management Agreement), and provided that
no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all monies in excess of the
Pegged Amount shall be transferred to the Borrower in accordance with the terms
of the Mezzanine Cash Management Agreement.

and maintain an Eligible Account into which, on a daily basis, funds on deposit
in the Mezzanine Deposit Account up to the Pegged Amount shall be transferred
into (the "MEZZANINE SECURITIES ACCOUNT"), which Mezzanine Securities Account
shall be entitled and shall have the account number as set forth in the
Mezzanine Deposit Account and Securities Account Control Agreement. Funds on
deposit in the Mezzanine Securities Account shall be allocated and disbursed in

(30) days prior to the date of the proposed transaction a notice identifying the
Assumed Property and the other information required hereunder, including a
calculation of the financial ratios described in Section 2.7 of the Mortgage
Loan;

                  (c)      Borrower shall have paid or reimbursed Agent for all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent (including, without limitation,

                  (d)      Borrower shall have paid to Lender an amount equal to
the Mezzanine Loan Release Amount applicable to the Assumed Property and
Mortgage Borrower shall have paid to the holder of Note B the Note B Release
Amount (as defined in the Mortgage Loan Agreement) applicable to such Assumed

                  SECTION 4.1.      BORROWER REPRESENTATIONS. Borrower
represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date that:

                  4.1.1    ORGANIZATION. Each Significant Party has been duly
organized and is validly existing and in good standing with requisite power and
authority to own its assets and to transact the businesses in which it is now
engaged and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each
jurisdiction where it is required to be so qualified in connection with its
properties, businesses and operations. Borrower possesses all rights, licenses,
permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it
to own its assets and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged. The
ownership interests of Borrower are as set forth on the organizational chart
attached hereto as SCHEDULE IV (the "ORGANIZATIONAL CHART").

                  4.1.2    PROCEEDINGS. Borrower has taken all necessary action
to authorize the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents by it and has the power and authority to execute, deliver
and perform under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and all
transactions contemplated thereby. This Agreement and such other Loan Documents
have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of Borrower and constitute
legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in
accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and
subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of
whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

                  4.1.3    NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrower will not conflict
with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a
default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or
encumbrance (other than pursuant to the

                                       47
<PAGE>

Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of any Significant Party
pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement,
partnership agreement, management agreement or other agreement or instrument to
which any Significant Party is a party or by which any of any Significant
Party's property or assets is subject, nor will such action result in any
violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of
any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over any Significant Party or any
of any Significant Party's properties or assets, and any consent, approval,
authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any such
Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by
Borrower of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents has been obtained and is
in full force and effect.

                  4.1.4    LITIGATION. There are no actions, suits or
proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or other
agency now pending or threatened against or affecting any Significant Party or
any Individual Property, which actions, suits or proceedings, if determined
against such Significant Party any Individual Property, might reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or
otherwise) or business of such Significant Party or the condition or ownership
of any Individual Property.

                  4.1.5    AGREEMENTS. Borrower is not a party to any agreement
or instrument or subject to any restriction which might materially and adversely
affect Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, any Individual Property or the Collateral,
Mortgage Borrower's or Borrower's business, properties or assets, operations or
condition, financial or otherwise. Neither Borrower nor Mortgage Borrower is in
default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of
any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or
instrument to which it is a party or by which Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, the
Collateral or any of the Properties are bound. Neither Borrower nor Mortgage
Borrower has any material financial obligation under any indenture, mortgage,
deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower
or Mortgage Borrower is a party or by which Borrower, Mortgage Borrower, the
Collateral or any of the Properties is otherwise bound, other than (a)
obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the operation of the Property as
permitted pursuant to clause (t) of the definition of "Special Purpose Entity"
set forth in Section 1.1 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement or this Agreement, and
(b) obligations under the Loan Documents, and (c) obligations under the
Revolving Credit, Loan Documents and the Mortgage Loan Documents, as applicable.

                  4.1.6    TITLE. Each of the Pledgors under the Pledge
Agreement are the record and beneficial owner of, and have good and marketable
title to, the applicable Collateral, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever
except the Liens created by the Loan Documents. The Pledge Agreement, together
with the UCC Financing Statements relating to the Collateral, will create valid
liens on, and security interests in and to, the Collateral, all in accordance
with the terms thereof. There are no claims for payment for work, labor or
materials affecting the Properties which are or may become a Lien prior to, or
of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Mortgage Loan Documents.

                                       48
<PAGE>

                  4.1.7    SOLVENCY. Borrower has (a) not entered into the
transaction or executed the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents
with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor and (b) received
reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under such Loan
Documents. The fair saleable value of Borrower's assets exceeds and will,
immediately following the making of the Loan, exceed Borrower's total
liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed
and contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of Borrower's assets is and
will, immediately following the making of the Loan, be greater than Borrower's
probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities
on its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower's assets do not
and, immediately following the making of the Loan will not, constitute
unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed
to be conducted. Borrower does not intend to, and does not believe that it will,
incur debt and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other
commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debt and liabilities as they mature
(taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by Borrower
and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).
Except the petition that commenced the reorganization proceedings titled In re
Fountain View, Inc, et al (jointly administered under Case No. LA 01-39678BB) in
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California, no
petition in bankruptcy has been filed against Borrower or any Affiliate, and
neither Borrower nor any Affiliate has ever made an assignment for the benefit
of creditors or taken advantage of any insolvency act for the benefit of
debtors. Neither Borrower nor any of its Affiliates are contemplating either the
filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency
laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of Borrower's assets or
properties, and Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing
of any such petition against it or such constituent Persons.

                  4.1.8    FULL AND ACCURATE DISCLOSURE. No statement of fact
made by Borrower in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material
fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading.
There is no material fact presently known to Borrower which has not been
disclosed to Lender which adversely affects, nor as far as Borrower can foresee,
might reasonably be anticipated to have a material adverse effect on the
Collateral, any Significant Party, any Individual Property or the business,
operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower or Mortgage
Borrower.

                  4.1.9    NO PLAN ASSETS. Borrower is not an "employee benefit
plan," as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, subject to Title I of ERISA, and
none of the assets of Borrower constitutes or will constitute "plan assets" of
one or more such plans within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101. In
addition, (a) Borrower is not a "governmental plan" within the meaning of
Section 3(32) of ERISA and (b) transactions by or with Borrower are not subject
to any state statute regulating investments of, or fiduciary obligations with
respect to, governmental plans similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA
or Section 4975 of the Code currently in effect, which prohibit or otherwise
restrict the transactions contemplated by this Loan Agreement.

                  4.1.10   COMPLIANCE. Except as set forth in the Zoning
Reports, each Significant Party and the Properties (including the use thereof)
comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements,
including building and zoning ordinances and codes. Borrower is not in default
or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any
Governmental Authority, except where any default or violation could not
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect. No Significant Party
or any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the
Properties has committed any act or omission affording the federal government or
any other Governmental Authority the right of forfeiture as against any
Individual Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of
Borrower's obligations under any of the Loan Documents.

Loan (a) are true, complete and correct in all material respects, (b) accurately
represent the financial condition of the Properties as of the date of such
reports, and (c) to the extent prepared or audited by an independent certified
public accounting firm, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP throughout
the periods covered, except as disclosed therein. Except for Permitted
Encumbrances, no Significant Party has any contingent liabilities, liabilities
for taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments or unrealized or anticipated
losses from any unfavorable commitments that are known to Borrower and
reasonably likely to have a materially adverse effect on any Significant Party,
the Collateral, or any Individual Property or the operation of any Individual
Property as a skilled nursing facility or assisted living facility, in each case
as indicated on Schedule I attached hereto, except as referred to or reflected
in said financial statements. Since the date of such financial statements, there
has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, operation or
business of Mortgage Borrower, Borrower or any of the Properties from that set
forth in said financial statements.

                  4.1.12   CONDEMNATION. No Condemnation or other proceeding has

with respect to all or any portion of any Individual Property or for the
relocation of roadways providing access to any Individual Property.

                  4.1.13   FEDERAL RESERVE REGULATIONS. No part of the proceeds
of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any "margin
stock" within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose which would be inconsistent with
such Regulation U or any other Regulations of such Board of Governors, or for
any purposes prohibited by Legal Requirements or by the terms and conditions of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

                  4.1.14   UTILITIES AND PUBLIC ACCESS. Each Individual Property

knowledge, proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or
otherwise affecting any Individual Property, nor are there any contemplated
improvements to any Individual Property that may result in such special or other

                  4.1.18   ENFORCEABILITY. The Loan Documents are not subject to
any right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense by Borrower or
Guarantor, including the defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the
terms of the Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the
Loan Documents unenforceable (subject to principles of equity and bankruptcy,
insolvency and other laws generally affecting creditors' rights and the
enforcement of debtors' obligations), and Borrower and Guarantor have not
asserted any right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense with respect
thereto.

                  4.1.19   NO PRIOR ASSIGNMENT. There are no prior assignments

and approvals, including certificates of operation, completion and occupancy,
required for the legal use, occupancy and operation of each Facility
(collectively, the "LICENSES") have been obtained and are in full force and
effect except for Licenses which, if not maintained, would not have a material
adverse effect on the use or operating of the Facility. Mortgage Borrower owns
and/or possesses, and holds free from restrictions or conflicts with the rights
of others, all such Licenses, provided that with respect to the Facilities
listed on SCHEDULE II, all such Licenses are held by Summit Care Corporation, a
California corporation, directly or as successor-by-merger to Summit Care
California, Inc., a California corporation, which has entered into an interim
sublease and interim management agreement with the applicable Operator to
operate such Facilities, which interim management agreement is effective to
permit the operation of such Facilities in accordance with all Legal
Requirements;

                  (b)      Each Facility is duly licensed as a skilled nursing
facility or assisted living facility (as set forth on Schedule I attached
hereto) as required under the applicable laws of the State in which such
Facility is located. The licensed bed capacity of each Facility is as set forth
on Schedule V attached hereto. Mortgage Borrower has not applied to reduce the
number of licensed or certified beds of any Facility or to move the right to any
and all of the licensed or certified beds of any Facility to any other location

regulations or published interpretations or policies relating to the prevention
of fraud and abuse, (iv) insurance, reimbursement and cost reporting
requirements, and (v) any other applicable laws, regulations or agreements for
reimbursement for the type of care or services provided by Operator with respect
to each Facility. As used in this Section 4.2(c), "material compliance" means a
level of compliance that would keep Mortgage Borrower (and the operation of the
Facility) free from any proceedings or sanctions by any Governmental Authority
having jurisdiction over the operation of the Facility and that would not be
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Mortgage Borrower's
operations, including, but not limited to, its right to receive reimbursement or
insurance payments with no opportunity to contest or correct;

or complaint) that would result in a denial of payment for new admissions with
no opportunity to correct prior to termination other than as disclosed in
SCHEDULE IX hereto. Other than as set forth on SCHEDULE IX hereto Borrower did
not have any deficiencies at level G or above on its most recent survey
(standard or complaint), nor has Borrower been cited with any substandard

                  (e)      Mortgage Borrower is not a participant in, subject
to, or, to Mortgage Borrower's knowledge, a target of, any action, proceeding,
suit, audit, investigation or sanction by any Health Care Authority or any other
administrative or investigative body or entity or any other third party or any
patient or resident (including, without limitation, whistleblower suits, or
suits brought pursuant to federal or state False Claims Acts, and
Medicaid/Medicare/State fraud/abuse laws) which could reasonably be expected to
result in the imposition of a fine, penalty, alternative, interim or final
sanction, a lower rate certification, recoupment, recovery, suspension or
discontinuance of all or part of reimbursement from any Health Care Authority,
third-party payor, insurance carrier or private payor, a lower reimbursement
rate for services rendered to eligible patients, or any other civil or criminal
remedy, or which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect
on Mortgage Borrower or the operation of the Facility, or which could reasonably
be expected to result in the appointment of a receiver or manager, or in the
revocation, transfer, surrender, suspension or other impairment of a License,
nor has any such action, proceeding, suit, investigation proceeding or audit
been threatened;

                  (f)      There are no agreements with residents of any
Facility, or with any other persons or organizations, which deviate in any

<PAGE>

each Facility, including patient and/or resident accounts records, are true,
complete, and correct in all material respects;

                  (g)      Neither the execution, delivery or performance of the
Note, this Agreement, the Pledge Agreement, the UCC Financing Statements or the
other Loan Documents, nor Mortgage Borrower's execution, delivery or performance
under the Mortgage Loan Documents will (i) adversely affect Mortgage Borrower's
right to receive Medicaid, Medicare, insurance company, managed care company, or
other third-party insurance payments or reimbursements or to receive private
payor payments or reimbursements, (ii) materially reduce the Medicaid, Medicare,
insurance company, managed care company, or other third-party insurance payments
or reimbursements or materially reduce private payor payments or reimbursements
which Mortgage Borrower is receiving as of the date hereof, or (iii) adversely
affect the Licenses;

local government or quasi-governmental body, or any intermediary, agency, board
or other authority or entity may have the right to recover funds with respect to
any Individual Property by reason of the advance of federal, state or local
funds, including, without limitation, those authorized under the Hill-Burton Act
(42 U.S.C. 291, et seq.). Mortgage Borrower has received no notice, and is not
aware of any violation of applicable antitrust laws;

                  (i)      Mortgage Borrower's private payor, Medicaid,
Medicare, and/or managed care company, insurance company or other third-party
insurance accounts receivable with respect to each Individual Property are free
of any liens;

                  (j)      Except as set forth on Schedule 4.2(j) attached
hereto, Mortgage Borrower is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement
or other labor contract applicable to persons employed by it at any Facility
and, to Borrower's knowledge, there are no threatened or pending labor disputes
at any Facility;

                  (k)      Mortgage Borrower has instituted, and each Facility
is operated in substantial compliance with, a compliance plan which follows
applicable guidelines established by Health Care Authorities; and

that all of the representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in Article
IV and elsewhere in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall survive
for so long as any amount remains owing to Lender under this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents by Borrower. All representations, warranties, covenants
and agreements made in this Agreement, as qualified by the Schedules hereto, or
in the other Loan Documents by

                                       57
<PAGE>

Borrower shall be deemed to have been relied upon by Lender notwithstanding any
investigation heretofore or hereafter made by Lender or on its behalf.

                  V.       BORROWER COVENANTS

                  SECTION  5.1.     AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS. From the date hereof

the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with Lender that:

                  5.1.1    EXISTENCE; COMPLIANCE WITH LEGAL REQUIREMENTS.

and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights, and all material
licenses (including, without limitation, the Licenses), permits and franchises
and cause Mortgage Borrower to comply in all material respects with all Legal
Requirements of all Governmental Authorities and Health Care Authorities
applicable to Borrower or Mortgage Borrower and the Properties, including,
without limitation, Medicare, Medicaid, or other Health Care Authority laws,
orders, decrees, rules or regulations relating to the operations conducted at
the Facility, laws, orders, decrees, rules or regulations concerning employment
and compensation of persons engaged in operation and maintenance of each
Individual Property and any environmental or ecological requirements. Borrower
shall cause Mortgage Borrower to keep and maintain in full force and effect all
Licenses necessary for the operation of the Facility on each Individual Property
other than Licenses which, if not maintained, would not have a material adverse
effect on the use or operation of such Individual Property. Borrower will cause
the Facility located on the applicable Individual Property to remain in
operation without interruption in accordance with all Legal Requirements. There
shall never be committed by Borrower and Borrower shall not permit Mortgage
Borrower to commit or permit any other Person in occupancy of or involved with
the operation or use of the Properties to commit any act or omission affording
the federal government or any state or local government the right of forfeiture
against any Individual Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in
performance of Borrower's obligations under any of the Loan Documents. Borrower
hereby covenants and agrees not to cause or permit Mortgage Borrower to commit,
permit or suffer to exist any act or omission affording such right of
forfeiture. Borrower shall at all times cause Mortgage Borrower to maintain,
preserve and protect all material franchises and trade names and preserve all
the remainder of its property used or useful in the conduct of its business and
shall keep, and cause Mortgage Borrower to keep the Properties in good working
order and repair, and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all
reasonably necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and
improvements thereto, all as more fully provided in the Mortgage Loan and/or the
Mortgage. Borrower shall keep, or cause Mortgage Borrower to keep, the
Properties insured at all times by financially sound and reputable insurers, to
such extent and against such risks, and maintain liability and such other
insurance, as is more fully provided in this Agreement. Borrower shall cause
Mortgage Borrower to operate any Individual Property in accordance with the
terms and provisions of any applicable O&M Agreement in all material respects.
After prior notice to Agent, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest (or cause
Mortgage Borrower to contest) by

appropriate legal proceeding promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and

Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured; (ii) Borrower is permitted to
do so under the provisions of any mortgage or deed of trust superior in lien to
the Mortgage; (iii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in

and ordinances; (iv) neither any Individual Property nor any part thereof or
interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated,
cancelled or lost; (v) Borrower shall promptly upon final determination thereof
comply with any such Legal Requirement determined to be valid or applicable or
cure any violation of any Legal Requirement; (vi) such proceeding shall suspend
the enforcement of the contested Legal Requirement against Borrower or Mortgage
Borrower or any Individual Property; and (vii) Borrower shall furnish such
security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested
by Agent, to insure compliance with such Legal Requirement, together with all
interest and penalties payable in connection therewith. Agent may apply any such
security, as necessary to cause compliance with such Legal Requirement at any
time when, in the reasonable judgment of Agent, the validity, applicability or
violation of such Legal Requirement is finally established or any Individual
Property (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in danger of being
sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost.

                  5.1.2    TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES. Borrower shall cause
Mortgage Borrower to pay all Taxes and Other Charges now or hereafter levied or

Individual Property or Borrower's, Mortgage Borrower's or Guarantor's ability to
perform its obligations hereunder under the other Loan Documents or the Mortgage
Loan Documents, to which each is a party.

         insurance company, or other commercial third-party payor provided,

pertaining to the Facility, including, without limitation, resident records,

Health Care Authorities. If, on or prior to November 7, 2003 either (A) the

ownership of the Collateral as a means of maintaining the value of the
Collateral as security for repayment of the Debt and the performance of the
obligations contained in the Loan Documents. Borrower acknowledges that Lender

the obligations contained in the Loan Documents, Lender can recover the Debt by
a sale of the Collateral.

the Debt. If any Individual Property or any portion thereof is taken by
Condemnation, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to promptly commence and
diligently prosecute the Restoration of such Individual Property and otherwise
comply with the provisions of Section 6.4 of the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

                  6.2.3    RESTORATION. Borrower shall, or shall cause Mortgage
Borrower to, deliver to Agent all reports, plans, specifications, documents and
other materials that are delivered to Mortgage Lender under Section 6.4 of the
Mortgage Loan Agreement in connection with the Restoration of the Property after
a Casualty or Condemnation.

                  VII.     RESERVE FUNDS

                  SECTION 7.1.      RESERVE FUNDS GENERALLY. Borrower shall
cause Mortgage Borrower to maintain the Reserve Funds and corresponding accounts
in accordance with all of the terms and conditions set forth in Article 7 of the
Mortgage Loan Agreement. To extent that the Mortgage Loan Agreement is no longer
in place, Borrower shall cause Mortgage Borrower to maintain substantially
similar reserve funds and accounts required in accordance with the terms of the
Mortgage Loan Agreement or

                                       87
<PAGE>

if the Mortgage Loan is refinanced or paid off in full (without a prepayment of
the Loan) and Reserve Funds that are required hereunder are not required under
the new mortgage loan, if any, then Borrower shall cause any amounts that would
have been deposited into any reserves or escrow accounts in accordance with the
terms of the Mortgage Loan Agreement to be transferred to and deposited with
Lender in accordance with the terms of this Article VII (and Borrower shall
enter into a cash management and lockbox agreement for the benefit of Lender
substantially similar to the arrangement entered into at the time of the closing
of the Mortgage Loan), and, if any Letters of Credit have been substituted by
Mortgage Borrower for any such reserves or escrows as may be specifically
permitted by the Mortgage Loan Agreement, then Borrower shall also cause such
Letters of Credit to be transferred to Lender to be held by Lender upon the same
terms and provisions as set forth in the Mortgage Loan Agreement.

         Agent upon request;

                           (iv)     if Borrower Transfers or otherwise encumbers

         made;

<PAGE>

                           (vii)    if a receiver, liquidator or trustee shall
         be appointed for any Significant Party or if any Significant Party
         shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or if any petition for
         bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement pursuant to federal

         adjudication, petition or proceeding was involuntary and not consented
         to by such Significant Party upon the same not being discharged, stayed
         or dismissed within thirty (30) days;

                           (viii)   if Borrower attempts to assign its rights

         herein or therein in contravention of the Loan Documents;

                           (ix)     (a) if Borrower breaches any of its
         respective negative covenants contained in Section 5.2 (provided, that
         with respect a breach of Section 5.2.2(a), such breach shall not be
         deemed to be a default unless same is not cured within five (5) days
         after delivery of notice to Borrower) or any covenant contained in
         Section 4.1.30, Section 5.1.11 or 5.1.26 hereof; or (b) if Guarantor
         breaches any of its covenants contained in Section 5.3 or Annex I;

                           (x)      with respect to any term, covenant or
         provision set forth herein which specifically contains a notice
         requirement or grace period, if Borrower or Guarantor shall be in
         default under such term, covenant or condition after the giving of such
         notice or the expiration of such grace period;

                           (xi)     Intentionally Deleted;

                           (xii)    if Borrower or Guarantor shall continue to
         be in Default under any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of
         this Agreement not specified in Subsections (i) to (xi) above, for
         fifteen (15) days after notice to Borrower from Agent, in the case of
         any Default which can be cured by the payment of a sum of money, or for
         thirty (30) days after notice from Lender in the case of any other
         Default; provided, however, that if such non-monetary Default is
         susceptible of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty
         (30) day period, and, provided, further, that Borrower shall have
         commenced to cure such Default within such thirty (30) day period and
         thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such
         thirty (30) day period shall be extended for such time as is reasonably
         necessary for Borrower in the exercise of due diligence to cure such
         Default, such additional period not to exceed sixty (60) days;

                           (xiii)   if there shall be default under any of the
         other Loan Documents beyond any applicable cure periods contained in
         such documents, whether as to Borrower, Guarantor or any of the
         Collateral, or if any other such event shall occur or condition shall
         exist, if the effect of such event or condition is

                                       89
<PAGE>

         to accelerate the maturity of any portion of the Debt or to permit
         Agent to accelerate the maturity of all or any portion of the Debt;

                           (xiv)    Mortgage Borrower ceases to continuously
         operate any Individual Property or any material portion thereof as a
         Facility for any reason whatsoever (other than temporary cessation as a
         result of a total Casualty or in connection with any Restoration
         thereof undertaken with the consent of Agent);

                           (xv)     Mortgage Borrower, any manager of any
         Facility, or any Facility violates any applicable law or regulation and
         shall fail to correct, within the time deadlines set by any Health Care
         Authority, managed care company, insurance company or other third-party
         payor any deficiency, and the violation or deficiency would reasonably
         be expected to result in any of the following actions by such entities
         with respect to the Facility:

                                    (a)      a termination of Mortgage
                           Borrower's or the Facility's Medicare contract or
                           Medicaid contract, or the Facility Licenses;

                                    (b)      a ban on payment for new admissions
                           generally or on payment for residents otherwise
                           qualifying for Medicaid or Medicare coverage with no
                           opportunity to correct or to contest (provided such
                           contest shall stay enforcement actions or exercise of
                           remedies by Health Care Authorities) prior to
                           termination; or

                                    (c)      a suspension, discontinuance,
                           elimination or material reduction or recoupment of
                           reimbursement for services (without opportunity to
                           correct or to contest (provided such contest shall
                           stay enforcement actions or exercise of remedies by
                           Health Care Authorities)); or

                           (xvi)    Mortgage Borrower shall revoke or modify the
         Medicare/Medicaid Receivables Agreement (as defined in the Cash
         Management Agreement) without the prior written consent of Lender.

                           (xvii)   (a) any of the Loan Documents ceases to be
         in full force and effect, or (b) any Lien created thereunder ceases to
         constitute a valid perfected first priority Lien on the Collateral
         (other than Priority Liens) in accordance with the terms thereof, or
         Lender ceases to have a valid perfected first priority security
         interest (subject to Priority Liens) in any of the Collateral or any
         securities pledged to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents;

                           (xviii)  (i) a Mortgage Loan Event of Default shall

         Loan Agreement and the Guarantor Revolving Loan Agreement shall occur

         Indenture) shall occur and be continuing;

                                       90
<PAGE>

                           (xix)    if Guarantor breaches in any material
         respect any covenant, warranty or representation contained in the
         Guaranty or herein;

                           (xx)     Intentionally Deleted;

                           (xxi)    if any Operator fails to pay and rent,
         additional rent or other charges under any Operating Lease; or

                           (xxii)   if any Master Lease or any Operating Lease
         shall be terminated in violation of the terms of this Agreement or any
         other Loan Document.

                  (b)      Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (other
than an Event of Default described in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above) and
at any time thereafter, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to
it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or at law or in
equity, Agent may take such action, without notice or demand, that Agent deems
advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the
Collateral, including, without limitation, declaring the Debt to be immediately
due and payable, and Agent may enforce or avail itself of any or all rights or
remedies provided in the Loan Documents and may exercise all the rights and
remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted and
enacted by the State or States where any of the Collateral is located against
Borrower and the Collateral, including, without limitation, all rights or
remedies available at law or in equity; and upon any Event of Default described
in clauses (vi), (vii) or (viii) above, the Debt and all other obligations of
Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall immediately and
automatically become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower
hereby expressly waives any such notice or demand, anything contained herein or
in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

                  SECTION 8.2.      REMEDIES. (a) Upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers, privileges and
other remedies available to Agent against Borrower under this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by, or applicable to,
Borrower or at law or in equity may be exercised by Agent at any time and from
time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared due and
payable, and whether or not Agent shall have commenced any foreclosure
proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under
any of the Loan Documents with respect to all or any of the Collateral. Any such
actions taken by Agent shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued
independently, singularly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and
in such order as Agent may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other
rights and remedies of Agent permitted by law, equity or contract or as set
forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Agent and Lender shall not be
subject to any "one action" or "election of remedies" law or rule, and (ii) all
liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain
in full force and effect until Agent has exhausted all of its remedies against
the Collateral

                                       91
<PAGE>

and the Collateral has been foreclosed upon, sold and/or otherwise realized upon
in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full.

                  (b)      Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and
acceleration of the Loan, Agent shall have the right from time to time to
partially foreclose upon the Collateral in any manner and for any amounts
secured by the Pledge Agreement then due and payable as determined by Agent in
its sole discretion including, without limitation, the following circumstances:
(i) in the event Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the
payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and interest, Agent may
foreclose upon the Collateral to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in
the event Agent elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal
balance of the Loan, Agent may foreclose upon the Collateral to recover so much
of the principal balance of the Loan as Agent may accelerate and such other sums
secured by the Collateral as Agent may elect. Notwithstanding one or more
partial foreclosures, the Collateral shall remain subject to the Pledge
Agreement and the other Loan Documents to secure payment of sums secured by the
Loan Documents and not previously recovered.

                  (c)      With respect to Borrower and the Collateral, nothing
contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be construed as requiring
Agent to resort to any portion of the Collateral for the satisfaction of any of
the Debt in any preference or priority to any other portion of the Collateral,
and Agent may seek satisfaction out of all of the Collateral or any part
thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of the Debt. In addition, Agent
shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose upon the
Collateral in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Pledge Agreement
then due and payable as determined by Agent in its sole discretion including,
without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event Borrower
defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more
scheduled payments of Debt Service, Agent may foreclose upon the Collateral to
recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Agent elects to
accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Agent
may foreclose upon the Collateral to recover so much of the principal balance of
the Loan as Agent may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Collateral
as Agent may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the
Collateral shall remain subject to the Pledge Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to secure payment of sums secured by the Pledge Agreement and the
other Loan Documents and not previously recovered.

                  (d)      Agent shall have the right from time to time to sever
the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, pledges
and other security documents (the "SEVERED LOAN DOCUMENTS") in such
denominations as Agent shall determine in its reasonable discretion for purposes
of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower
shall execute and deliver to Agent from time to time, promptly after the request
of Agent, a severance agreement and such other documents as Agent shall
reasonably request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding
sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent. Borrower
hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Agent as its true and lawful
attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute
all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, Borrower
ratifying all

                                       92
<PAGE>

that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Agent
shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until five (5)
days after notice has been given to Borrower by Agent of Agent's intent to
exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any
costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution,
recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents, and the Severed Loan
Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not
contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties
contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower only as of the
Closing Date.

                  (e)      Any amounts recovered from the Collateral after an
Event of Default may be applied by Agent toward the payment of any interest
and/or principal of the Loan and/or any other amounts due under the Loan
Documents in such order, priority and proportions as Agent in its sole
discretion shall determine.

                  (f)      Agent may, but without any obligation to do so and
without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any
obligation hereunder or being deemed to have cured any Event of Default
hereunder, make, do or perform any obligation of Borrower hereunder in such
manner and to such extent as Agent may deem necessary. All such costs and
expenses incurred by Agent in remedying such Event of Default or such failed
payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any action or
proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after such
cost or expense was incurred into the date of payment to Agent. All such costs
and expenses incurred by Agent together with interest thereon calculated at the
Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured
by the liens, claims and security interests provided to Agent under the Loan
Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Agent
therefore.

                  (g)      The rights, powers and remedies of Agent under this
Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or
remedy which Agent may have against Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Agent's
rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or
otherwise, at such time and in such order as Agent may determine in Agent's sole
discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing
upon an Event of Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall
be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be
exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of
one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower shall not be construed
to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or to
impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

                  (h)      For the purpose of carrying out the provisions and
exercising the rights, powers and privileges granted in this Section 8.2,
Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Agent its true and
lawful attorney-in-fact to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and
do and perform any acts such as are referred to in this subsection in the name
and on behalf of Borrower. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an
interest and cannot be revoked.

agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in the certificates
delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the making by Lender of the Loan and the
execution and delivery to Lender of the Note, and shall continue in full force
and effect so long as all or any of the Debt is outstanding and unpaid unless a
longer period is expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents.
Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such
reference shall be deemed to include the legal representatives, successors and
assigns of such party. All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement,

representatives, successors and assigns of Lender.

                  SECTION 10.2.     LENDER'S DISCRETION. Whenever pursuant to

or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Lender, the decision of
Agent to approve or disapprove or to decide whether arrangements or terms are
satisfactory or not satisfactory shall (except as is otherwise specifically
herein provided) be in the sole discretion of Agent and shall be final and
conclusive. Whenever this Agreement expressly provides that Lender or Agent may
not withhold its consent or its approval of an arrangement or term, such
provisions shall also be deemed to prohibit Lender or Agent from delaying or
conditioning such consent or approval.

modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement, or of the Note, or of any other Loan Document, nor
consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom

term, condition, covenant or agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy

privilege. In particular, and not by way of limitation, by accepting payment
after the due date of any amount payable under this Agreement, the Note or any
other Loan Document, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right either
to require prompt payment when due of all other amounts due under this
Agreement, the Note or the other Loan Documents, or to declare a default for
failure to effect prompt payment of any such other amount. Lender shall have the
right to waive or reduce any time periods that Lender is entitled to under the

AGREE NOT TO ELECT A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ISSUE TRIABLE OF RIGHT BY JURY, AND

RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY BORROWER AND

PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY THE OTHER.

                  SECTION 10.8.     HEADINGS. The Article and/or Section
headings and the Table of Contents in this Agreement are included herein for
convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement
for any other purpose.

                  SECTION 10.9.     SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each
provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be
effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement
shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.

                  SECTION 10.10.    PREFERENCES. Lender shall have the
continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all
payments by Borrower to any

                                       98
<PAGE>

portion of the obligations of Borrower hereunder. To the extent Borrower makes a
payment or payments to Lender, which payment or proceeds or any part thereof are
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside
or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to
the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or
part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full
force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by
Lender.

                  SECTION 10.11.    WAIVER OF NOTICE. Borrower hereby expressly
waives, and shall not be entitled to, any notices of any nature whatsoever from
Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender
to Borrower and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not,
pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of
notice.

                  SECTION 10.12.    REMEDIES OF BORROWER. In the event that a
claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably
or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an
obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender
nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower's sole
remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or
declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to
determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action
seeking declaratory judgment.

                  SECTION 10.13.    EXPENSES; INDEMNITY. (a) Borrower covenants
and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Lender upon
receipt of notice from Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by Lender in connection
with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by
counsel for Borrower (including without limitation any opinions requested by
Lender as to any legal matters arising under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents with respect the Collateral); (ii) Borrower's ongoing performance of
and compliance with Borrower's respective agreements and covenants contained in
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or
complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming
compliance with environmental, healthcare and insurance requirements; (iii)
Lender's ongoing performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions
contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be
performed or complied with after the Closing Date (except as otherwise expressly
provided for herein); (iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and
administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters
reasonably requested by Lender; (v) securing Borrower's compliance with any
requests made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (vi) the filing and
recording fees and expenses, title insurance and

                                       99
<PAGE>

reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required
legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting
the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents; (vii) enforcing or preserving any rights, either in response to third
party claims or in prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding or other
litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, this Agreement,
the other Loan Documents or the Collateral, or any other security given for the
Loan; and (viii) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due
from Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or with respect to
the Collateral, including the Operators, or in connection with any refinancing
or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the
nature of a "work-out" or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings; provided,
however, that Borrower shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and
expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal
acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender. Any cost and expenses due and
payable to Lender may be paid from any amounts in the Mezzanine Deposit Account.

                  (b)      Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Lender from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation,
the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for Lender in connection with
any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or
threatened, whether or not Lender shall be designated a party thereto), that may
be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Lender in any manner relating to
or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower of its obligations under, or any
material misrepresentation by Borrower contained in, this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan
(collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"); provided, however, that Borrower
shall not have any obligation to Lender hereunder to the extent that such
Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or
willful misconduct of Lender. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify,
defend and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be
unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrower shall pay
the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law
to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by
Lender.

                  (c)      Borrower covenants and agrees to pay for or, if
Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse Lender for, any fees and expenses incurred
by any Rating Agency in connection with any Rating Agency review of the Loan,
the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated thereby or any consent,
approval, waiver or confirmation obtained from such Rating Agency pursuant to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the
Lender shall be entitled to require payment of such fees and expenses as a
condition precedent to the obtaining of any such consent, approval, waiver or
confirmation.

                  SECTION 10.14.    SCHEDULES INCORPORATED. The Schedules
annexed hereto are hereby incorporated herein as a part of this Agreement with
the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof.

                                       100
<PAGE>

                  SECTION 10.15.    OFFSETS, COUNTERCLAIMS AND DEFENSES. Any
assignee of any constituent Lender's interest in and to this Agreement, such
constituent Lender's Note and the other Loan Documents shall take the same free
and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to such
documents which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of such
documents, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or
asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee
upon such documents and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated
offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby
expressly waived by Borrower.

                  SECTION 10.16.    NO JOINT VENTURE OR PARTNERSHIP; NO THIRD
PARTY BENEFICIARIES

                  (a)      Borrower and Lender intend that the relationships
created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents be solely that of borrower
and lender. Nothing herein or therein is intended to create a joint venture,
partnership, tenancy-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between Borrower
and Lender nor to grant Lender any interest in the Properties, or the Collateral
other than that of mortgagee, beneficiary or lender.

                  (b)      This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are
solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing contained in this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to confer upon anyone
other than Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon or to enforce the
performance or observance of any of the obligations contained herein or therein.
All conditions to the obligations of Lender to make the Loan hereunder are
imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Lender and no other Person
shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance
with their terms or be entitled to assume that Lender will refuse to make the
Loan in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other
Person shall under any circumstances be deemed to be a beneficiary of such
conditions, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by
Lender if, in Lender's sole discretion, Lender deems it advisable or desirable
to do so.

                  SECTION 10.17.    PUBLICITY. All news releases, publicity or
advertising by Borrower or their Affiliates through any media intended to reach
the general public which refers to the Loan Documents, the financing evidenced
by the Loan Documents, to Lender or any of its Affiliates shall be subject to
the prior approval of Agent.

                  SECTION 10.18.    WAIVER OF MARSHALLING OF ASSETS. To the
fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower, for itself and its successors and
assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower,
Borrower's members partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the
Collateral, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of
foreclosure of the Mortgage, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws
pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of
alienation, homestead exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or
any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender
under the Loan Documents to a sale of the Collateral for the collection of the
Debt without any prior or different resort

                                       101
<PAGE>

for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the
net proceeds of the Collateral in preference to every other claimant whatsoever.

                  SECTION 10.19.    WAIVER OF OFFSETS/COUNTERCLAIMS. Borrower
hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a compulsory
counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by Lender.

                  SECTION 10.20.    CONFLICT; CONSTRUCTION OF DOCUMENTS;
RELIANCE. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Loan
Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Loan
Agreement shall control. The parties hereto acknowledge that they were
represented by competent counsel in connection with the negotiation, drafting
and execution of the Loan Documents and that such Loan Documents shall not be
subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party which
drafted same. Borrower acknowledges that, with respect to the Loan, Borrower
shall rely solely on its own judgment and advisors in entering into the Loan
without relying in any manner on any statements, representations or
recommendations of Lender or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender.
Lender shall not be subject to any limitation whatsoever in the exercise of any
rights or remedies available to it under any of the Loan Documents or any other
agreements or instruments which govern the Loan by virtue of the ownership by it
or any parent, subsidiary or Affiliate of Lender of any equity interest any of
them may acquire in Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right
to raise any defense or take any action on the basis of the foregoing with
respect to Lender's exercise of any such rights or remedies. Borrower
acknowledges that Lender engages in the business of real estate financings and
other real estate transactions and investments which may be viewed as adverse to
or competitive with the business of Borrower or its Affiliates.

                  SECTION 10.21.    BROKERS AND FINANCIAL ADVISORS. Borrower
hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers,
underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims,
liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender's attorneys' fees
and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that
such Person acted on behalf of Borrower or Lender in connection with the
transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section 10.21 shall
survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Debt.

                  SECTION 10.22.    PRIOR AGREEMENTS. This Agreement and the
other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and
thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all
prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written,
including, without limitation, the Conditional Commitment Letter dated March 6,
2003 (as amended) between Borrower and Lender are superseded by the terms of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

                  SECTION 10.23. CERTAIN ADDITIONAL RIGHTS OF LENDER (VCOC).
Notwithstanding anything which may be contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, Agent and each Lender shall have:

                  (a)      the right to routinely consult with Borrower's
management regarding the significant business activities and business and
financial developments of Borrower, provided, however, that such consultations
shall not include discussions of environmental compliance programs or disposal
of hazardous substances. Consultation meetings should occur at Agent's or the
Lender's request on a regular basis (no less frequently than quarterly) with
Agent or each Lender having the right to call special meetings at any reasonable
times and upon reasonable advance notice; and

                  (b)      the right, in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, to examine the books and records of Borrower at any time upon
reasonable notice.

                  SECTION 10.24.    SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants,
promises, and agreements in this Agreement, by or on behalf of Borrower, shall
insure to the benefit of the legal representatives, successors and assigns of
Lender, provided that any assignment by Lender is in accordance with Section
11.6 hereof.

                  SECTION 10.25.    COUNTERPARTS; LOST NOTES. This Agreement may
be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of
separate counterparts and all of said counterparts taken together shall be
deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Upon receipt of notice of the
mutilation, destruction, loss or theft of any Note and the ownership thereof,
Borrower shall, upon the written request of the holder of such Note, execute and
deliver in replacement thereof a new Note in the same form, in the same original
principal amount, so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen; and such Note so
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen shall then be deemed no longer outstanding
hereunder. If the Note being replaced has been mutilated, it shall be
surrendered to Borrower after receipt of the replacement Note; and if such
replaced Note has been destroyed, lost or stolen, the holder of such Note shall
furnish Borrower with a written indemnity in form reasonably satisfactory to
Borrower to save them harmless in respect of such replaced Note.

                  SECTION 10.26.    REINSTATEMENT. This Agreement and each other
Loan Document shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
be, if at any time payment and performance of the Debt or any part thereof, is,
pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be
restored or returned by Borrower, whether as a "voidable preference,"
"fraudulent conveyance," or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance
had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is
rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Debt shall be reinstated and
deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored
or returned.

                  SECTION 10.27.    JOINT AND SEVERAL. If Borrower or Guarantor
consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of
each such person or party shall be joint and several.

                  XI.      AGENCY PROVISIONS; ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

                  SECTION 11.1.     AGENT

                  (a)      Appointment. Each Lender hereby designates and
appoints CapitalSource Finance LLC as administrative agent and collateral agent
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Lender hereby
irrevocably authorizes Agent, as administrative agent and collateral agent for
such Lender, to take such action or to refrain from taking such action on its
behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and
to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are delegated to Agent, as
administrative agent and the collateral agent, by the terms of this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. Agent agrees to act as such on the conditions contained in
this Article. Except for rights specifically noted, the provisions of this
Article are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, and Borrower shall have
no rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. Agent
may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, by or
through its agents or employees. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to
the contrary or in any other Loan Document, Agent, as administrative agent and
collateral agent, and each of the Lenders agree that the rights and benefits
conferred upon Agent in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral
agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and/or its exercise or
enforcement of the rights and remedies under this Agreement or at law or in
equity with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be for
the benefit of Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders.

                  (b)      Nature of Duties. In performing its functions and
duties under this Agreement, Agent is acting solely on behalf of Lenders and its
duties are administrative in nature and it does not assume and shall not be
deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust
with or for Lenders, other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other
Loan Documents, or for Borrower. Agent shall have no duties, obligations or
responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the
other Loan Documents. Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a
fiduciary relationship in respect of Lenders. Except for information, notices,
reports, and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by
Agent hereunder or given to Agent for the account of or with copies for Lenders,
Lenders shall make their own independent investigation of the financial
condition and affairs of Borrower in connection with the extension of credit
hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower,
and Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a
continuing basis, to provide Lenders with any credit or other information with
respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the Closing Date or
at any time or times thereafter. If Agent seeks the consent or approval of
Lenders to the taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder, then Agent
shall send prior written notice thereof to Lenders. Agent shall promptly notify
(in writing) each Lender any time that the applicable percentage of Lenders have
instructed Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

                                      104
<PAGE>

                  (c)      Rights, Exculpation, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of
its officers, directors, managers, members, equity owners, employees or agents
shall be liable to any Lender for any action lawfully taken or omitted by them
hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or
therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall be obligated on the terms
set forth herein for performance of its express duties and obligations
hereunder, and Agent shall be liable with respect to its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or
distribution of payments made by it in good faith, and if any such apportionment
or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole
recourse of such Lender to whom payment was due but not made shall be to recover
from other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are
determined to be entitled (and such Lender hereby agrees to return to such
Lender any such erroneous payments received by them). In performing its
functions and duties hereunder, Agent shall exercise the same care which it
would in dealing with loans for its own account. Agent shall not be responsible
to any Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made
by Borrower herein or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity,
enforceability, collectibility, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or for the
financial condition of Borrower. Agent shall not be required to make any inquiry
concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions,
or conditions of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or the financial
condition of Borrower, or the existence or possible existence of any Default or
Event of Default. Agent may at any time request instructions from any Lender
with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or
of any of the other Loan Documents Agent is permitted or required to take or to
grant, and Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action
or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to
any Person for refraining from taking any action or withholding any approval
under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions
from the Required Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have
any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or
refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders and notwithstanding
the instructions of any Lender, Agent shall have no obligation to take any
action if it, in good faith believes that such action exposes Agent or any of
its officers, directors, managers, members, equity owners, employees or agents
to any personal liability unless Agent receives an indemnification reasonably
satisfactory to it from any Lender with respect to such action.

                  (d)      Reliance. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any
written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any
telephone message or other communication (including any writing, telex, telecopy
or telegram) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters
pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and its duties
hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of legal counsel, independent accountants,
and other experts selected by Agent in its sole discretion.

                  (e)      Indemnification. Each Lender, severally and not
jointly, agree to reimburse and indemnify Agent and its officers, directors,
managers, members, equity

                                      105
<PAGE>

owners, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower or
Guarantor), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Share in effect on
the date on which indemnification is sought under this subsection of the total
outstanding obligations (or, if indemnification is sought after the date the
Loan shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata
Share immediately prior to such date of the total outstanding obligations), from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances, or disbursements of any
kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
against Agent or any of its officers, directors, managers, members, equity
owners, employees or agents in any way relating to or arising out of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by
Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; provided,
however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses, advances or disbursements resulting from Agent's gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The obligations of Lenders under this Article
XI shall survive the payment in full of the Debt and the termination of this
Agreement.

                  (f)      Agent Individually. With respect to the Loan made by
it, Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents and is subject to the same obligations and
liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein and the other Loan Documents
as any other Lender. The terms "Lenders" or "Required Lenders" or any similar
terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Agent in
its individual capacity as a Lender or one of the Required Lenders. Agent may
lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other
business with any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Borrower as if it were not
acting as administrative agent and collateral agent pursuant hereto.

                  (g)      Successor Agent.

                           (i)      Resignation and Removal. Agent may resign
from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder at any time by
giving at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Borrower and Lenders.
Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor to Agent
of appointment pursuant to clause (ii) below or as otherwise provided below.
Agent may be removed as agent by the Required Lenders, on at least thirty (30)
days' prior written notice to Borrower and Agent and the other Lenders.

                           (ii)     Appointment of Successor. Upon any such
notice of resignation or removal pursuant to clause (g)(i) above, Required
Lenders shall appoint a successor to Agent (a "SUCCESSOR AGENT") with, so long
as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the consent of
Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If a
Successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within said thirty (30) day
period, Agent, upon notice to Borrower, may, on behalf of Lenders, then appoint
a Successor Agent who shall serve as administrative agent and collateral agent
until such time as Required Lenders (with, so long as no Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the consent of Agent (which consent

                                      106
<PAGE>

shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)), appoint a Successor Agent as
provided above. If no Successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the
foregoing within said thirty (30) day period, the resignation shall become
effective and Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of Agent
hereunder, until such time, if any, as Lenders appoint a Successor Agent as
provided above.

                           (iii)    Successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of any
appointment under the Loan Documents by a Successor Agent, such Successor Agent
shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of Agent, as administrative agent and collateral agent
and, upon the earlier of such acceptance or the effective date of Agent's
resignation, Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the
Loan Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in favor of
Agent, as administrative agent and collateral, shall continue. After Agent's
resignation as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan
Documents, the provisions of this Article XI shall inure to its benefit as to
any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was administrative agent
and collateral agent under the Loan Documents. In the event that Agent shall
have resigned or otherwise been replaced, references in this Article XI to Agent
shall be deemed to mean a Successor Agent.

                  (h)      Collateral Matters.

                           (i)      Collateral. Each Lender agrees that any
action taken by Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where required by the express
terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of Lenders) in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents relating to the
Collateral, and the exercise by Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where so
required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein,
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be
authorized and binding upon all of Lenders and Agent. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and
authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Lenders with
respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with
the Loan Documents in connection with the Collateral; (ii) execute and deliver
each Loan Document relating to the Collateral and accept delivery of each such
agreement delivered by Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries; (iii) act as
collateral agent for Lenders for purposes of the perfection of all security
interests and Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated
therein; (iv) subject to the terms of this Article XI, manage, supervise and
otherwise deal with the Collateral; (v) take such action as is necessary or
desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and
Liens created or purported to be created by the Loan Documents relating to the
Collateral, and, (vi) subject to the terms of this Article XI, exercise all
remedies given to such Agent and Lenders with respect to the Collateral under
the Loan Documents relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise.

                           (ii)     Release of Collateral. Lenders hereby
irrevocably authorize Agent, and Agent and Lenders agree for the benefit of
Borrower, to release any Lien granted to or held by Agent for the benefit of
Lenders upon (A) all Collateral upon termination of this Agreement and payment
and satisfaction in full of all Debt; or (B) any

                                      107
<PAGE>

portion of the Collateral which is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, if Borrower certifies to Agent
that such sale, transfer or other disposition is made in compliance with the
provisions of this Agreement (and Agent may rely in good faith conclusively on
any such certificate, without further inquiry). Upon at least five (5) Business
Days prior written request by Borrower, Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably
authorized by Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence
the release of the Liens granted to Agent for the benefit of Lenders herein or
pursuant hereto upon all or any portion of the Collateral in accordance with the
previous sentence.

                           (iii)    Absence of Duty. Agent shall have no
obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to assure that the
property covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents exists or is owned by
Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that
the Liens granted to Agent on behalf of Lenders herein or pursuant hereto have
been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or
enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in
any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to
continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or
available to Agent in this Section 11.1(h) or in any of the Loan Documents, it
being understood and agreed that in respect of the property covered by this
Agreement or the Loan Documents or any act, omission, or event related thereto,
Agent may act in any manner consistent with the provisions of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents and as it may otherwise deem appropriate, in its
commercially reasonable discretion, given Agent's own interest in property
covered by this Agreement or the Loan Documents as one of Lenders and that Agent
shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any of the other Lenders;
provided, that Agent shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with
loans for its own account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall be liable
with respect to its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                  (i)      Agency for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints
Agent as agent for the purpose of perfecting each Lenders' security interest in
Collateral which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC in any applicable
jurisdiction, can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than
Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent
thereof, and, promptly upon Agent's request therefor, shall deliver such
Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent's instructions.

                  (j)      Exercise of Remedies. Except as set forth in Section
11.3, each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce
or seek to enforce this Agreement or any Loan Document or to realize upon any
collateral security for the Loans, it being understood and agreed that such
rights and remedies may be exercised only by Agent.

                  SECTION 11.2.     ACTIONS BY AGENT AND LENDERS.

                  (a)      If Agent shall request instructions from Lenders with
respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this
Agreement or any other

                                      108
<PAGE>

Loan Document, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such
action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from the Required
Lenders; and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so
refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, Lenders shall not have any right of
action whatsoever against Agent as a result of its acting or refraining from
acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.

                  (b)      All amendments, waivers and consents to any provision
of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may be amended or waived or
consented to if, but only if, such amendment or waiver or consent is in writing
and is signed by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders (and, if the rights or
duties of the Agent are affected thereby, by the Agent); provided that no such
amendment or waiver or consent shall, unless signed by all the Lenders, (i)
increase or decrease the Commitment of any Lender (except for a ratable decrease
in the Commitment of all Lenders) or subject any Lender to any additional
obligation, (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest hereunder or any
fees hereunder, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or
interest on the Loan or any fees hereunder or change the amortization terms
hereunder, (iv) release the Lien of Agent on any other collateral (except
pursuant to Section 11.1(h)(ii)), or (v) change the percentage of the aggregate
unpaid principal amount of the Notes, or the number of Lenders which shall be
required for the Agent or the Lenders to take any action under this Section or
any other provision of this Agreement.

                  (c)      Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Agent
shall consult with the Lenders in respect of any such Event of Default to
determine the course of action which is acceptable to the Required Lenders.
Agent shall pursue such course of action approved by the Required Lenders in
respect of any such Event of Default, including, without limitation,
commencement of any suit to foreclose any security for the Loan and acquire
title to the Collateral or any portion thereof in connection with such
foreclosure, or defend, settle or compromise any claims. In the event the
Required Lenders cannot decide which remedies, if any, are to be pursued within
thirty (30) days after notice of such Event of Default from Agent to the
Lenders, Agent may commence foreclosure proceedings on behalf of the Lenders;
provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the Required Lenders shall
direct that a different or additional remedial action shall be taken, such
different or additional remedial action shall be taken by Agent in lieu of or in
addition to such foreclosure.

                  SECTION 11.3.     SET OFF AND SHARING OF PAYMENTS. In addition
to any rights and remedies now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not
by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized by
Borrower at any time or from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to Borrower or to any other Person
(any prior or contemporaneous notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off
and to appropriate and to apply any and all (a) balances (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final) held by such Lender at any of its offices
for the account of Borrower or the Guarantor (regardless of whether such
balances are then due to Borrower or the Guarantor), and (b) other property at
any time held or

                                      109
<PAGE>

owing by such Lender or such holder to or for the credit or for the account of
Borrower or the Guarantor, against and on account of any of the Debt which are
not paid when due; except that no Lender shall exercise any such right without
the prior written consent of Agent; provided, however, that the failure to give
notice to Borrower shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
application. Any Lender which has exercised its right to set off or otherwise
has received any payment on account of the Debt shall, to the extent the amount
of any such set off or payment exceeds its Pro Rata Share of payments obtained
by all of Lenders on account of such Debt, purchase for cash participations in
each such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of Debt as would be necessary to cause
such Lender to share such excess with each other Lender or holder in accordance
with their respective Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that if all or any
portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such
purchasing Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and
benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery. Borrower agrees, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, that (a) any Lender may exercise its right to
set off with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Debt and
may sell participations in such excess to other Lenders and holders, and (b) any
Lender or holder so purchasing a participation in the Loan made or other Debt
held by other Lenders or holders may exercise all rights of set-off, bankers'
lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully
as if such Lender were a direct holder of the Loan and other Debt in the amount
of such participation.

                  SECTION 11.4.     PAYMENTS.

                  (a)      Advances and Payments; Interest and Fee Payments. If
payments are made directly to Agent, payments of principal, interest and fees in
respect of the Loan will be settled, in accordance with each Lender's Pro Rata
Share on the first Business Day after such payments are received. Such payments
will be made by such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or reduction of any
kind.

                  (b)      Return of Payments. If Agent pays an amount to a
Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment
has been or will be received by Agent from Borrowers and such related payment is
not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from
such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If Agent
determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement
must be returned to Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any
solvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of
this Agreement, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to
any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion
of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest
at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to Borrower or such other
Person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

                  SECTION 11.5.     DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION. Agent will
distribute promptly to each Lender copies of all notices, schedules, reports,
projections, financial statements, agreements and other material and other
information, including, but not limited to, financial and reporting information
received from Borrower, the Guarantor or their Subsidiaries or generated by a
third party (and excluding only internal information

                                      110
<PAGE>

generated by Agent for its own use as a Lender), as provided for in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as received by Agent. Agent shall
promptly give notice to Lenders of the receipt or sending of any notice,
schedule, report, projection, financial statement or other document or
information pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and
shall promptly forward a copy thereof to each Lender. Agent shall request
information from Borrower, the Guarantor or their Subsidiaries as Lenders may
request from time to time. Agent shall not be liable to Lenders for any failure
to comply with its obligations under this Section 11.6, except to the extent
that such failure is attributable to Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

                  SECTION 11.6.     ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

                  (a)      Any constituent Lender may assign to one or more
Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of
such Lender's Note); provided that the parties to each such assignment shall
execute and deliver to Agent and Borrower an assignment and acceptance agreement
(an "ASSIGNMENT AND ACCEPTANCE") in connection with such assignment, and to, to
the extent substitute Notes are required in connection with such assignment,
deliver the Note(s) held by the assigning Lender to Agent, to be held until such
replacement Notes are delivered to Agent. In addition any constituent Lender may
participate to one or more Persons all or any portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including without
limitation, all or a portion of such Lender's Note) utilizing such documentation
to evidence such participation and the parties' respective rights thereunder as
such Lender, in its sole discretion, shall elect, provided, however, that (i)
such Lender's obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible for the performance thereof, (iii) such Lender shall remain the
holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and Borrower and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
Agreement and he other Loan Documents and and (iv) any agreement pursuant to
which any Lender shall sell any such participation shall provide that such
participant's rights and responsibilities to exercise such Lender's rights and
enforce each of Borrowers' obligations hereunder, including the right to consent
to any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, shall, prior to an Event of
Default, be limited to the right to consent to (A) a reduction of the principal
of, or rate or amount of interest on the Loan subject to such participation
(other than by payment or prepayment thereof), (B) postponement of any date
fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loan subject to such
participation and (C) release of any guarantor of the Debt or release of any
collateral that Lender is not otherwise required to release under the Loan.

                  (b)      Upon such execution and delivery, from and after the
effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and
obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender, as the case
may be, hereunder and such assignee shall be deemed to

                                      111
<PAGE>

have assumed such rights and obligations, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall,
to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assumed by the
assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and
be released from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the
remaining portion of Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) accruing from
and after the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance.

                  (c)      Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance
executed by an assignee, Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance,
and (ii) give prompt written notice thereof to Borrower along with notice of any
replacement Notes required in connection with such assignment (and shall make
specify to Borrower that upon receipt of such replacement Notes, it shall
deliver the Notes being replaced). Within five (5) Business Days after its
receipt of such notice, Borrower, shall execute and deliver to Agent a new Note
or Notes to the order of such parties and in such amounts specified in Agent's
notice, and Agent shall make a notation of such transaction in the Note Register
referenced in Section 11.7. Such new Note or Notes shall be in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the aggregate then outstanding principal amount of the
to be surrendered Note or Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such
Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of
the Note.

                  (d)      Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, a
Lender may assign or pledge its interest in the Loan only to a Person (an
