         NEIGHBORCARE shall provide the Pharmacy Products set forth in this
Article III and as further described in Exhibit A and its Appendices which are
attached hereto and made a part hereof, to the Facility in compliance with the
standards set forth herein and as may be otherwise required by applicable law.

3.1      Pharmacy Products.

         (a)      Upon the prescribing physician's or Facility's, as the case
                  may be, order, NEIGHBORCARE agrees to deliver promptly
                  prescription and non-prescription drugs and supplies within
                  reasonable times to the Facility. If, for any reason,
                  NEIGHBORCARE is unable to deliver requested item(s) within a
                  reasonable time, then NEIGHBORCARE shall promptly notify the
                  Facility of its inability to so deliver. NEIGHBORCARE will, at
                  all times, use its best efforts to secure and deliver all
                  ordered drugs and supplies. In the event that the item ordered
                  is not available, NEIGHBORCARE will use its best efforts to
                  contact the prescribing physician to determine whether an
                  alternate item might be prescribed.

         (b)      NEIGHBORCARE will provide the Facility with an appropriate
                  number of stat medication kits and a use policy which shall
                  conform to all applicable rules and regulations. It is further
                  understood and agreed by both parties that use of an item from
                  such kit shall be pursuant only to a drug order by a licensed
                  physician. Facility agrees to promptly report to NEIGHBORCARE
                  the usage of any item from the stat medication kit to
                  facilitate the billing for said items to the appropriate
                  Resident. In the event that Facility fails to report such
                  usage, the cost of replenishing the stat medication kit to the
                  approved list of contents shall be borne by Facility.

3.2      Pharmacy Consulting Services. This Agreement does not include the
         provision of pharmacy consulting services as required under the
         conditions of participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs for
         nursing facilities. The provision of those services on a consultant or
         advisory basis shall be provided under and covered exclusively by a
         separate agreement.

3.3      NEIGHBORCARE General Service Requirements.

         (a)      NEIGHBORCARE agrees to provide all Pharmacy Products pursuant
                  to the terms of this Agreement Monday through Friday during
                  normal business hours and shall

         (b)      NEIGHBORCARE shall institute purchase order, invoice and
                  product shipment procedures to facilitate efficient and timely
                  ordering and delivery of Pharmacy Products for use in
                  connection with Residents. NEIGHBORCARE shall arrange for the
                  delivery of Pharmacy Products at such time or times as are
                  appropriate to facilitate their use in the treatment of
                  Residents for whom the Pharmacy Products are ordered.

         (c)      NEIGHBORCARE shall provide to the Facility all forms
                  NEIGHBORCARE deems necessary for the proper execution of the
                  Pharmacy Supply delivery system. Such forms include, but shall
                  not be limited to, drug order and re-order forms, delivery
                  receipt forms and communication orders.

                  to time, make available to the Facility certain materials and
                  equipment necessary or appropriate for the ordering and
                  provision of the Pharmacy Products provided hereunder. The
                  materials and equipment so provided may include, without
                  limitation and as mutually agreed by the parties hereto, stat
                  medication kits, medication carts and drug delivery systems,
                  telecommunications equipment, reference books, films, slides,
                  manuals and audio-visual equipment and training aids. It is
                  understood and agreed to by Facility that all such items of
                  material and equipment shall at all times remain the property
                  of NEIGHBORCARE and upon demand by NEIGHBORCARE shall be
                  returned to NEIGHBORCARE in their original condition subject
                  to normal wear and tear. Facility shall cause all such items
                  to be used solely in connection with the ordering or provision
                  of Pharmacy Products hereunder.

                  this Agreement within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice
                  of material adverse effect, the affected party may terminate
