TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

This WAIVER & AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is dated as of August 1, 2012 among ASSISTED LIVING CONCEPTS, INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Borrower”), the Lenders currently party to the Credit Agreement referred to below, and U.S. Bank National Association, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer.

 

RECITALS:

 

The parties hereto are parties to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of February 18, 2011 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated as of May 18, 2012, and as the same may be further amended, restated, amended and restated or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, the lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”; individually, a “Lender”), and U.S. Bank National Association, in its separate capacities as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), and as Swingline Lender (in such capacity, the “Swingline Lender”), and L/C Issuer (in such capacity, the “LC Issuer”).

 

The Borrower acquired 12 senior living facilities that were previously operated by the Borrower under two separate lease agreements with Ventas Realty, Limited Partnership and its general partner Ventas, Inc. and MLD Delaware Trust (the “Ventas Acquisition”), funded in part by a Revolving Loan under the Credit Agreement.

Conditions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Amendment shall not become effective unless and until it has been executed and delivered by the Borrower, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and acknowledged and agreed to by all of the Guarantors.

 

Representations and Warranties.  The Borrower repeats and reaffirms the representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Credit Agreement.  The Borrower also represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment are within the corporate powers of the Borrower, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not and will not:  (i) require any consent or approval of the shareholders of the Borrower which has not been obtained; (ii) violate any provision of the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Borrower or of any law, regulation, order, or judgment presently in effect having applicability to the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower; (iii) require the consent or approval of, or filing or registration with, any governmental body, agency or authority; or (iv) result in any breach of or constitute a default under, or result in the imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property of the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower pursuant to, any indenture or other agreement or instrument under which the Borrower or any such Affiliate is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound or affected.  This Amendment constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy or similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors’ rights generally.

This Amendment is solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns.
