THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT    
    

        This Employment Agreement (the "Agreement"), effective as of December 4, 2007, is by and between LTC
Properties, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Maryland ("LTC" or the "Company"), and Pamela Shelley-Kessler
("Executive"). 

        NOW
THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

        1.     Appointment, Title and Duties.    LTC hereby employs Executive to serve as its Senior Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer. In such capacity, Executive shall report to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and shall have such duties, powers and responsibilities as are customarily assigned to a
Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of a publicly held corporation, but shall also be responsible to and report to the Board of Directors and to any committee thereof. In addition,
Executive shall have such other duties and responsibilities as the Chief Executive Officer may assign her, with her consent, including serving with the consent or at the request of the Chief Executive
Officer as an officer or on the board of directors of affiliated corporations. 

        2.     Term of Agreement.    The term of this Agreement shall commence as of the date hereof and shall extend such that
at each and every moment of time hereafter the remaining term shall be one year. 

        3.     Acceptance of Position.    Executive accepts the position of Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
of LTC, and agrees that during the term of this Agreement she will faithfully perform her duties and, except as expressly approved by the Board of Directors of LTC, will devote substantially all of
her business time to the business and affairs of LTC, and will not engage, for her own account or for the account of any other person or entity, in a business which competes with LTC. It is
acknowledged and agreed that Executive may serve as an officer and/or director of companies in which LTC owns voting or non-voting stock. In addition, it is acknowledged and agreed that
Executive may, from time to time, serve as a member of the board of directors of other companies, in which event the Board of Directors of LTC must expressly approve such service pursuant to a Board
resolution maintained in the Company's minute books. Any compensation or remuneration which Executive receives in consideration of her service on the board of directors of other companies shall be the
sole and exclusive property of Executive, and LTC shall have no right or entitlement at any time to any such compensation or remuneration. 

        4.     Salary and Benefits.    During the term of this Agreement: 

        (a)   LTC
shall pay to Executive a base salary at an annual rate of not less than One Hundred Ninety Thousand Dollars ($190,000) per annum ("Base Salary"), paid in
approximately equal installments at intervals based on any reasonable Company policy. LTC agrees from time to time to consider increases in such base salary in the discretion of the Board of
Directors. Any increase, once granted, shall automatically amend this Agreement to provide that thereafter Executive's base salary shall not be less than the annual amount to which such base salary
has been increased. 

        (b)   Executive
shall participate in all health, retirement, Company-paid insurance, sick leave, disability, and expense reimbursement programs which LTC makes
available to any of its senior executives,; provided, however, Executive is not eligible for Health Insurance Benefits, as such term is defined in each of the 2007 Amended and Restated Employment
Agreement by and between LTC and Andre Dimitriadis and the 2007 Amended and Restated Employment Agreement by and between LTC and Wendy Simpson, each dated as of February 6, 2007.Executive shall
be eligible for bonuses in the discretion of the Board of Directors.

        (c)   Executive
shall be entitled to reasonable vacation time, not less than four (4) weeks per year, provided that not more than two (2) weeks of such vacation
time may be taken consecutively without prior notice to and non-objection by the Chief Executive Officer. 

        5.     Certain Terms Defined.    For purposes of this Agreement: 

        (a)   Executive
shall be deemed to be "disabled" if a physical or mental condition shall occur and persist which, in the written opinion of a licensed physician selected by
the Board of Directors in good faith, has rendered Executive unable to perform the duties set forth in Section 1 hereof for a period of sixty (60) days or more and, in the written
opinion of such physician, the condition will continue for an indefinite period of time, rendering Executive unable to return to her duties; 

        (b)   A
termination of Executive's employment by LTC shall be deemed for "Cause" if, and only if, it is based upon (i) conviction of a felony; (ii) material
disloyalty to the Company such as embezzlement, misappropriation of corporate assets or, except as permitted pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement, breach of Executive's agreement not to
engage in business for another enterprise of the type engaged in by the Company; or (iii) the engaging in unethical or illegal behavior which is of a public nature, brings LTC into disrepute,
and results in material damage to the Company. The Company shall have the right to suspend Executive with pay, for a reasonable period to investigate allegations of conduct which, if proven, would
establish a right to terminate this Agreement for Cause, or to permit a felony charge to be tried. Immediately upon the conclusion of such temporary period, unless Cause to terminate this Agreement
has been established, Executive shall be restored to all duties and responsibilities as if such suspension had never occurred; 

        (c)   A
resignation by Executive shall not be deemed to be voluntary and shall be deemed to be a resignation with "Good Reason" if it is based upon (i) a diminution in
Executive's title, duties, or salary; (ii) a reduction in benefits which is not part of an across-the-board reduction in benefits of all executive personnel;

result of such Change of Control; 

        7.     Indemnification.    LTC shall indemnify Executive and hold him harmless from and against all claims, actions,

permitted by law. To the extent permitted by law, LTC shall advance to Executive any expenses necessary in connection with the defense of any Claim which is brought if indemnification cannot be
determined to be available prior to the conclusion of, or the investigation of, such Claim. The parties hereto agree that each understands and has understood that notwithstanding the above-stated
provisions, nothing herein shall require LTC to hold harmless or indemnify Executive with respect to any Claim which is brought or asserted against Executive by LTC. LTC shall investigate in good
faith the availability and cost of directors' and officers' insurance and shall include Executive as an insured in any directors' and officers' insurance policy of such insurance it maintains. The
provisions of this Section 7 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. 

        8.     Attorney Fees.    In the event that any action or proceeding is brought to enforce the terms and provisions of

shall be deemed given when received. 

        10.   Construction.    In constructing this Agreement, if any portion of this Agreement shall be found to be invalid
or unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be given effect to the maximum extent permitted without considering the void, invalid or unenforceable provisions. In
construing this Agreement, the singular shall include the plural, the masculine shall include the feminine and neuter genders as appropriate, and no meaning in effect shall be given to the captions of
the sections in this Agreement, which are inserted for convenience of reference only. 

        Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Agreement, to the extent that (i) any amount paid pursuant to the Agreement is treated as nonqualified deferred compensation pursuant to
Section 409A 

4

 

of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and (ii) the Executive is a "specified employee" pursuant to Section 409A(2)(B) of the Code, then such payments shall be made on the
date which is six (6) months after the date of the Executive's separation from service. In connection with the payment of any obligation that is delayed pursuant to this Rider, the Company
shall establish an irrevocable trust to hold funds to be used for payment of such obligations. Upon the date that such amount would otherwise be payable, the Company shall deposit into such
irrevocable trust an amount equal to the obligation. However, notwithstanding the establishment of the irrevocable trust, the Company's obligations under the Agreement upon the Executive's termination
of employment shall constitute a general, unsecured obligation of the Company and any amount payable to the Executive shall be paid solely out of the Company's general assets, and the Executive shall
have no right to any specific assets of the Company. The funds, if any, contained or contributed to the irrevocable trust shall remain available for the claims of the Company's general creditors. 

        11.   Headings.    The section headings hereof have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be
construed to affect the meaning, construction or effect of this Agreement. 

        12.   Governing Law.    The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of California as at the time in effect. 

        13.   Entire Agreement.    This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other prior agreements
and undertakings, both written and oral, among Executive and the Company, with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

        IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement shall be effective as of the date specified in the first paragraph of this Agreement.
