establish salary levels (provided that changing the salary payable to any
employee (excluding cost of living and other ordinary course increases) shall be
subject to Owner's prior approval), performance standards, personnel policies
and employee benefits (subject to Owner's prior approval) for the Management
Firm's employees; and (viii) to take all other actions necessary or desirable to
operate and manage the Facility in accordance with prudent practice and industry
standards. Owner hereby grants to Management Firm a license during the term of
this Agreement for the right to occupy the Facility for purposes of performing

the termination of this Agreement, and is not, at any time, to be utilized,
distributed, copied or otherwise employed or acquired by Management Firm except
as necessary for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, as
approved in writing by Owner or as may be required by law. Management Firm also
acknowledges that, pursuant to that certain License Agreement described in the
Transfer Agreement, certain trade or service names, associated marks and other

in the Transfer Agreement), or (b) at Owner's option, ten (10) days after Owner
has given notice to Management Firm that all licenses necessary for the
operation of the Facility as an ALF have been transferred or issued to Owner or
its designee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Owner may extend the term of this
Agreement for three (3) consecutive periods of thirty (30) days each by
providing notice thereof to Management Firm at least fifteen (15) business days
prior to the expiration of the then current term.

6. Termination.

                  (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5, Owner may
terminate this Agreement upon written notice if Management Firm defaults in the
performance of any material covenant, agreement, term or provision of this

(10) days after written notice to Management Firm from Owner stating the
specific default.

                  (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5, Management
Firm may terminate this Agreement upon written notice if Owner defaults in the

from Management Firm stating the specific default.

                  (c) Upon the termination of this Agreement, whether pursuant
to Section 5 or Section 6, (i) the Facility shall be surrendered to Owner in the
manner required under Section 1 of the Transfer Agreement, (ii) all inventory,
consumable items, and personal property of Management Firm at the Facility shall
be transferred to Owner or its designee without further consideration, (iii) all
contracts and agreements affecting the Facility shall, as directed by Owner, be
either terminated or assigned to Owner or its designee, (iv) all books and
records concerning the Facility and operation thereof (including any books and
records maintained at BCC's corporate headquarters) shall be delivered to Owner
or its designee at the Facility, (v) neither Management Firm nor any Affiliate
thereof shall have any further right, title or interest in or to the Facility,
the Premises, the operation thereof or the income derived therefrom, and (vi)
pursuant to the terms of the Transfer Agreement, Owner, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may, but shall be under no obligation to, hire some or all of the
employees of Management Firm at the Facility, and Management Firm hereby agrees
that it shall reasonably cooperate with such hiring efforts of Owner.

<PAGE>   14
                  (b) By the Owner. The Owner shall indemnify, defend, save and
hold harmless the Management Firm, its shareholders, officers, directors,
employees, or agents from and against all demands, claims, actions, losses,
damages, deficiencies, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, attorney's fees, interest, penalties and all amounts paid in
investigation, defense or settlement of any of the foregoing) asserted against
or incurred by the Management Firm, its officers, directors, employees, or
agents, in connection with, or arising out of, or resulting from (i) a breach by
Owner of any of its material covenants, agreements, representations or
warranties in this Agreement, or (ii) the negligent or willful acts or omissions
of Owner, its employees or agents during the term of this Agreement. The
provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of
this Agreement.

                  (c) Nothing contained herein shall preclude either party from
asserting any claims or suits against the other party that may arise out of the
terms and provisions of this Agreement.

                  (d) Neither Management Firm nor Owner shall be deemed to be in
violation of this Agreement, and its respective performance shall be excused, if
it is prevented from performing any of its respective obligations hereunder for
any reason beyond its control, including shortages in labor or supplies; war;
acts of God; with respect to Management Firm, the failure of the Owner to
advance funds required hereunder; or changes in any law of Federal, state or
local government, or any agency thereof.

8. Relationship Between Parties. The relationship of the Management Firm to the
Owner shall be that of independent contractor.

9. Management Fee. The Management Firm for the services rendered hereunder shall
be entitled to five percent (5%) of all gross revenues of the Facility as its
sole compensation for management of the Facility (the "Management Fee"). The
Management Fee shall be paid monthly, and shall be based on the financial
operations of the Facility as of the end of each calendar month. In the event
that this Agreement is terminated as of a date other than the end of calendar
month, the Management Fee for such partial month shall be prorated accordingly.
To the extent that final operating reports or financial statements for the
Facility produced pursuant to Section 3, or an independent audit of the
financial records of the Facility performed at the request and expense of Owner

                                      -14-

greater or less than what should have been received, Owner (in case of
underpayment) shall pay upon demand the shortfall, and Management Firm (in the
case of overpayment) shall repay upon demand the overage.

10. Funding of Costs and Expenses by the Owner. Notwithstanding any provision
deemed to be to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Owner, and not
Management Firm or any Affiliate of Management Firm, shall be responsible for
all costs and expenses of any kind or nature (whether ordinary or extraordinary)
with respect to the Facility and its operations, except for any such costs or
expenses covered by the indemnity set forth in Section 7(a). Such costs and
expenses shall include, without limitation, all operating costs and expenses,
all costs and expenses for capital improvements desired by Owner and all costs
and expenses associated with assuring that the Facility complies with all laws,
regulations, permits and rules applicable to the Facility. The Owner shall at
all times provide on a timely basis sufficient capital for the operation and
maintenance of the Facility (including without limitation all sums to be
expended in accordance with the Budget) and shall deposit from time to time such

required under this Section 10 into the Operating Accounts within five (5) days
of Management Firm's written request therefor, which request shall identify the
uses of such funds; in the event of an emergency requiring the deposit of such
additional funds, Management Firm shall give Owner as much advance notice as
practicable under the circumstances, and Owner shall deposit the required funds
as soon as practicable thereafter.

11. Other Facilities. Owner understands and acknowledges that BCC and Affiliates
thereof are in the business of operating facilities such as the Facility, and
that BCC and Affiliates thereof intend to continue to manage and operate such
other facilities, which facilities may or may not be in competition with the
Facility. Subject to Section 3.c of the Termination Agreement, nothing contained
herein shall be deemed to be construed as a restriction on the Management Firm's
right to so operate and manage such other existing facilities or facilities that
may be opened in the future, even if such facilities are in competition with the
Facility.
