3.5    Tax Purchase Price Allocation.  During the Due Diligence Period, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to agree upon an allocation of the Purchase Price (and any liabilities properly included therein for Tax purposes) among the Properties and, within each Property, among the assets that comprise the Property (the “Tax Purchase Price Allocation”) for federal, state and local tax purposes in accordance with Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code,  and once agreed upon, the Parties shall attach such Tax Purchase Price Allocation to this Agreement as Schedule 3.5.

4.    Title to Property.
4.1    Title Insurance.  At Closing, each Seller shall convey to Buyer, through escrow, good and insurable fee simple title to the Real Property for each Community, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions, by duly executing and acknowledging a Deed for the same, and the Title Company shall issue (or shall irrevocably commit to issue) to Buyer an ALTA  Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance, together with such endorsements as, prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period,  Buyer will have requested and Title Company will have agreed to issue; provided that such agreement shall not be conditioned upon any act of Sellers other than delivery of an owner’s affidavit customarily given to title companies by sellers of similar properties (each a “Title Policy” and, collectively, the “Title Policies”), insuring in Buyer fee simple title to the Real Property of each Community with liability in the amount of the Tax Purchase Price Allocation attributable to such Property, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. 
4.2    Procedure for Approval of Title.  (a) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that Seller has delivered to Buyer a title insurance commitment for the Real Property of each Community (each, a “Commitment”) identified on Schedule 4.2, together with legible copies of all items identified as exceptions therein, and as soon as practicable after the date hereof, shall deliver a Commitment (together with legible copies of all items identified as exceptions therein) for the Real Property for any Community not identified on Schedule 4.2 (collectively, the “Title Documents”); and (b) a copy of the most recent surveys of the Communities identified on Schedule 4.2 (each, a “Prior Survey”).  As soon as practicable after the date hereof, Buyer shall obtain a current survey (each, a “New Survey”, and collectively with the Prior Survey, the “Surveys”) of any or all of the 

17

Land and the Improvements by a registered land surveyor.  Buyer shall pay all costs and expenses incurred in obtaining a New Survey. Buyer shall have until the date which is ten (10) days prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period to review and approve or object to, in writing, the condition of the title to the Real Property of each Community as reflected on the Commitment and the Surveys (“Title Review Period”); provided, however, that with respect to any Commitment for Real Property not identified on Schedule 4.2  or any New Survey that is not received by Buyer at least five (5) Business Days prior to the expiration of the Title Review Period, the Title Review Period will be extended solely with respect to such Commitment or New Survey, as applicable,  to the date that is five (5) Business Days after Buyer’s receipt of such Commitment or New Survey, as applicable.  If the Title Documents or the Surveys reflect or disclose any defect, exception or other matter that is unacceptable to Buyer (each, a “Title Matter”, and collectively, the “Title Matters”), then Buyer shall provide Seller with written notice of Buyer’s objections no later than the conclusion of the Title Review Period.  Seller may, at its sole option, elect, by written notice given to Buyer within five (5) days following the conclusion of the Title Review Period (“Seller’s Notice Period”), to cure or remove, or agree to cure and remove by Closing, any of the Title Matters, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Seller shall be obligated to remove (or bond over)  any mortgages, deeds of trust, mechanics’ liens, security agreements, delinquent taxes or other similar liens or charges capable of computation as a fixed sum which were created or expressly assumed by a Seller (collectively, “Monetary Liens”).  The failure of a Seller to deliver written notice electing to cure any or all such objected to exceptions during such Seller’s Notice Period shall be deemed an election by such Seller not to cure such exceptions, other than Monetary Liens.  In the event such Seller elects (or is deemed to have elected) not to cure or remove any objection, or in any event such Seller fails to cure or remove any objection which such Seller agrees or is required to cure, then Buyer shall be entitled, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, either to (i) terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period and obtain a refund of the Deposit, or (ii) waive any Title Matters that Seller has not elected to cure and close this transaction as otherwise contemplated herein.  The failure of Buyer to provide written notice to such Seller of its election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence within seven (7) days after the expiration of the Seller’s Notice Period shall be deemed an election by Buyer to waive its objections as to all Title Matters that such Seller has not agreed to release or cure (other than Monetary Liens) and to proceed to Closing hereunder. The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2 shall neither limit nor expand Buyer’s rights under Section 6.2, it being understood and agreed by the parties that if Buyer does not terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have approved the status of title subject only to (i) those Title Matters as to which Buyer has timely objected and as to which such Seller has removed or agreed to remove in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.2, and (ii) any New Title Matter as to which Buyer has timely objected and as to which such Seller has removed or agreed to remove in accordance with Section 4.3.

18

4.3    New Title Matter.  If at any time after the expiration of the Title Review Period or the Due Diligence Period, as applicable, Buyer receives a new, updated or supplemental Commitment or Survey with respect to one or more of the Communities, and such new, updated or supplemental Commitment or Survey discloses one or more Title Matters that are not Permitted Exceptions (in each case, a “New Title Matter”), and (a) such New Title Matter was not within Buyer’s Knowledge prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, (b) such New Title Matter either (i) was created by or at the direction of Seller, or (ii) would have a material, adverse impact on the access to or the current use or operations of a Property, or (iii) would be reasonably expected to result in a new tax or assessment against the Property in excess of five percent (5%) of the gross annual revenues for such Property for the immediately preceding twelve (12) months (following the exhaustion of all appeals), and (c) such New Title Matter was not caused by Buyer or any Person on behalf of Buyer, Buyer may object to such New Title Matter by providing written notice to such Seller within five (5) Business Days after receiving such new, updated or supplemental Commitment or New Survey (the “Buyer New Title Matter Objection Notice”). If Buyer timely delivers a Buyer New Title Matter Objection Notice to any such Seller, such Seller may elect, by providing written notice (the “Seller New Title Matter Election Notice”) to Buyer within five (5) Business Days after such Seller’s receipt of such Buyer New Title Matter Objection Notice, (A) to remove or cure such New Title Matter at or prior to Closing, or (B) not to remove or cure such New Title Matter; provided, however, that if such New Title Matter is a Monetary Lien, Seller shall be obligated to remove or bond over the same as of Closing. If the New Title Matter is a new tax or assessment described in clause (b)(iii) above and the amount of such new tax or assessment is quantifiable (e.g., an assessment for one or more specified periods, as compared to one that extends into perpetuity), then Seller may elect to cure such New Title Matter by promptly notifying Buyer of Seller’s intention to contest such tax or assessment, and providing Buyer with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Buyer that Seller has reserved for or bonded over any potential liability associated with such tax or assessment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but without limiting any of Buyer’s rights or remedies under this Agreement, Sellers shall have the right to amend and supplement any schedule to this Agreement (other than Schedule 1, Schedule 3 and Schedule 3.5) from time to time without Buyer’s consent to the extent that such schedule needs to be amended or supplemented to maintain the truth or accuracy of the applicable representation or warranty or the information disclosed therein, by promptly (but in any event prior to Closing) providing a written copy of such amendment or supplement to Buyer prior to Closing. If, after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period and prior to Closing, either (i) any Seller makes any amendment or supplement to the schedules (other than amendments or supplements intended to reflect the operation of the Communities in the Ordinary Course of Business or otherwise in accordance with this Agreement), or (ii) Buyer has Knowledge of any fact that would constitute a breach of a representation or warranty by any Seller (each, a “Post-Due Diligence Disclosure”) and the matter of such Post-Due Diligence Disclosure, if not added to the schedules would result in the failure of the condition set forth in Section 12.2.1(b) to be satisfied at Closing, then Buyer, as its sole remedy, shall have the option of either (i) waiving the breach of representation or warranty, and proceeding with Closing, or (ii) terminating this Agreement in accordance with this Section 9.2. Any such election shall be made by Buyer not later than seven (7) calendar days after Buyer becomes actually aware (whether by notice from Seller or otherwise) of such fact, provided that any election by Buyer to terminate this Agreement shall not be effective unless Seller fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days following the delivery of Buyer’s termination notice.  If Seller elects to cure any such breach following Buyer’s timely delivery of such termination notice, and the end of such 30-day cure period extends beyond the Closing Date, then the Closing Date shall be extended to the date two (2) Business Days following the end of such 30-day cure period.  If Buyer does not timely elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.2 with respect to any particular Post-Due Diligence Disclosure, and Buyer nevertheless proceeds to Closing, then Buyer shall be conclusively deemed to have elected to waive its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.2 by reason of such Post-Due Diligence Disclosure, and elected to acquire the Property on the terms set forth in this Agreement without adjustment to the Purchase Price, and waived all post-closing remedies under this Agreement, at law or in equity with respect to such Post-Due Diligence Disclosure.  In no event shall Seller be liable to Buyer for, or be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of, any breach of any of Seller’s representations or warranties that results from any change that (A) occurs between the Effective Date and the Closing Date and (B) (1) results from actions of any Seller which are expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, (2) is beyond the reasonable control of Sellers, or (3) results from any act or omission of Buyer; provided that the foregoing shall not limit 

32

Buyer’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.2 as a result of the failure of the condition set forth in Section 12.2.1(b) to be satisfied at Closing. If applicable, Closing shall be adjourned to the extent necessary to provide the Parties with the full benefit of the time periods provided herein.
10.    Buyer Representations and Warranties.  Buyer hereby represents and warrants to Sellers as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing Date that:
10.1    Organization and Authorization.  Buyer is duly incorporated or formed (as the case may be),  and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

10.2    No Conflicting Agreements.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all documents contemplated hereby by Buyer have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Buyer and all required consents and approvals have been duly obtained and will not result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any indenture, agreement or instrument to which Buyer is a Party or otherwise bound.
10.3    Patriot Act Compliance.  To the extent applicable to Buyer, Buyer has complied in all material respects with the Patriot Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and the rules and regulations administered by OFAC, to the extent such Laws are applicable to Buyer.  Buyer is not included on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the OFAC, or is a resident in, or organized or chartered under the laws of (A) a jurisdiction that has been designated by the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury under Section 311 or 312 of the Patriot Act as warranting special measures due to money laundering concerns, or (B) any foreign country that has been designated as non-cooperative with international anti-money laundering principles or procedures by an intergovernmental group or organization, such as the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering, of which the United States is a member and with which designation the United States representative to the group or organization continues to concur.

11.    Covenants of Sellers and Buyer.
11.1    Covenants of Sellers.  Each Seller hereby covenants with Buyer, as follows:
11.1.1    Contracts; Tenant Leases. Between the Effective Date and the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, (i) Sellers will instruct Manager to keep Buyer informed of any new Contracts or Tenant Leases that are entered into by any Seller or any amendments or  modifications to the existing Contracts or Tenant Leases, which new Contracts or modifications will survive Closing or otherwise affect the use, operation or enjoyment of the Property after Closing (collectively, “New Contracts and Leases”), and (ii) Seller will instruct Manager to provide Buyer with copies of all New Contracts and Leases. If Buyer prepares an estoppel certificate (“Estoppel”) or subordination and non-disturbance agreement (“SNDA”) in respect of any Tenant Lease and requests that Seller endeavor to have the applicable Tenant complete, execute and return such Estoppel and/or SNDA, Seller will request (promptly upon receipt thereof from Buyer) that such Tenant, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Tenant to, complete and execute such Estoppel and/or SNDA, as applicable, and return it to Buyer as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter; provided, however in no event shall Seller’s failure to obtain such Estoppel and/or SNDA be deemed to be a breach by Seller under this Agreement, nor shall the receipt of any such Estoppel and/or SNDA be a condition precedent to Closing.  Subsequent to the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, and continuing until Closing (provided this Agreement has not been terminated), Sellers shall not (and, to the extent a Seller’s consent is required under the applicable Management Agreement, shall not consent to), without  Buyer’s prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (and which consent will be deemed to have been given by Buyer if Buyer does not notify Sellers in writing to the contrary within three (3) Business Days after Sellers provide written notice to Buyer thereof), (i) amend, extend, renew (except pursuant to renewal rights solely in favor of the then applicable Tenant or counterparty expressly set forth in a Tenant Lease or Material Contract) terminate, waive any rights under or consent to any matter to which a Seller is entitled to consent thereunder, any existing Tenant Leases or Material Contracts, nor (ii) enter into any new Tenant Leases or Material Contracts, unless such new or existing Tenant Lease or Material Contract is entered into in the Ordinary Course of Business, is terminable by Buyer without any termination fee, penalty or premium upon not more than ninety (90) days’ notice and is disclosed promptly in writing to Buyer.

Sellers shall cooperate with (and instruct Manager to cooperate with) and do (and instruct Manager to do) all things reasonably practicable to assist Buyer in its efforts to obtain all of the Required Governmental Approvals; provided, however, that, no Seller nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to make payments or incur any other liability to pursue or secure any such Required Governmental Approvals (all of which costs, including application fees, shall be Buyer’s responsibility).  Sellers further agree 

34

to reasonably cooperate (at no cost or expense to Sellers other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which  Buyer agrees in writing to reimburse) with Buyer in any post-Closing transition with respect to the Required Government Approvals. For clarification purposes, the parties acknowledge and agree that, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law and to the extent assignable, Buyer shall not acquire or assume any of Sellers’ Medicare or Medicaid provider numbers used in the operation of the Communities or the conduct of the Business unless and until new Medicare and Medicaid provider numbers with respect to the operation of the Communities or the conduct of the Business are issued to Buyer (whether before or after Closing). For greater certainty, this Section 11.1.2 shall survive Closing. 
11.1.3    Operation in the Ordinary Course.  Subject to Sections 11.1.1 and 11.1.2 above, from the Effective Date until Closing, Sellers shall (i) instruct Manager to operate and manage the Property in the Ordinary Course of Business in substantial accordance with Applicable Law in all material respects, including Health Care Laws, and (ii) instruct Manager to perform when due, and otherwise comply with, all of Sellers’ material obligations and duties under the Tenant Leases, the Residency Agreements and the Contracts.  From the Effective Date until Closing, Seller shall (a)  instruct Manager to maintain inventories at levels consistent with the normal operation of the Communities; (b) not remove from the Real Property any Personal Property except in the Ordinary Course of Business; (c)  promptly notify Buyer in writing of any casualty, condemnation or other material adverse change in the Property of which any Seller receives notice; (d)  maintain in effect all existing fire and extended coverage insurance, and theft, liability, business interruption and other existing insurance pertaining to the Property and/or the operation of the Communities; and (e)  use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain existing Licenses and Permits and renew the same, as necessary, at Seller’s cost and direction; (f) not create or permit to be created any new Title Matters affecting any Real Property that will not be removed at or prior to Closing; (g) not apply for any change in the zoning of any Real Property or apply for a variance with respect to such Property; and (h) not commence any material alterations to any Community other than in the Ordinary Course of Business.
11.1.4    Non-Solicitation. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Sellers shall not, and shall cause its subsidiaries and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, agents and other representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”) not to, directly or indirectly: (i) initiate, solicit, encourage or knowingly facilitate or induce the submission of any inquiries, proposals or offers that constitute, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any Alternative Transaction Proposal; (ii) engage or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or provide or cause to be provided any non-public information or data relating to Sellers or any of their subsidiaries in furtherance of, or have any discussions with any Person relating to, an actual or proposed Alternative Transaction Proposal; or (iii) enter into any letter of intent, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other similar statement of intention or agreement relating to any 

35

Alternative Transaction Proposal.  Each Seller agrees that it shall take all necessary steps to promptly inform its subsidiaries and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, financial representatives, agents and other representatives involved in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of the obligations undertaken in this Agreement.
11.1.5    Residency Agreements. From and after the date hereof until the earlier of Closing or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereunder, Sellers shall not, except as consented to by Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (i) enter into any Residency Agreement with respect to the Real Property (or any portion thereof), other than Residency Agreements for residential occupancy on market terms that are substantially on the form of the Residency Agreement(s) attached hereto as Schedule 11.1.4 without any material modification to such form(s), or (ii) apply for or obtain any additional operating license (or modify the scope of any Existing Operating License) for the provision of nursing, assisted living, congregate care or other health care services at the Community (including any beds or units at any Community), except in the Ordinary Course of Business.
11.1.6    Reports. From and after the Effective Date and until the Closing Date, Sellers shall instruct Manager to provide Buyer with the following reports on a monthly basis: (i) daily occupancy reports substantially in the form previously delivered to Buyer, (ii) profit and loss statements for each of the Communities and (iii) a report of all Entrance Fees received with respect to any Residency Agreements executed between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, and any Entrance Fees refunded by Seller between the Effective Date and the Closing Date.
11.1.7    Tax Clearance Certificates.  Seller shall file with the applicable department of revenue and any department of labor (each a “Department of Revenue”) in each jurisdiction where each Community is located any available application for a sales and use tax clearance certificate (each, a “Tax Clearance Certificate”) within sixty (60) days of Closing or such shorter period required by law and shall deliver each Tax Clearance Certificate from each such Department of Revenue to Buyer if and when such certificate is issued and received by Seller.  For greater certainty, this Section 11.1.7 shall survive Closing. 
11.1.8    SEC Filings.  Seller acknowledges that it has been advised that Buyer is a subsidiary or affiliate of a publicly registered company (the “Company”).  Seller further acknowledges that, as a publicly registered company, the Company is required to make certain filings with and/or disclosures to the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “SEC Filings”) that relate, among other things, to the most recent pre-acquisition fiscal year (the “Audited Year”) and the current fiscal year through the date of acquisition (the “Stub Period”) for the Communities. To assist the Company in preparing the SEC Filings, Seller agrees to instruct Manager to, and otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to, provide Buyer, at or before Closing, with the following:  (i) access to bank statements for the Audited Year and Stub Period, (ii) rent roll as 

36

of the end of the Audited Year and Stub Period, (iii) operating statements for the Audited Year and Stub Period (iv) access to the general ledger for the Audited Year and Stub Period, (v) cash receipts schedule for each month in the Audited Year and Stub Period, (vi) access to invoices for expenses and capital improvements in the Audited Year and Stub Period, (vii) accounts payable ledger and accrued expense reconciliations in the Audited Year and Stub Period, (viii) check register for the three (3) months following the Audited Year and Stub Period, (ix) each Operating Lease and five (5) year lease schedules, to the extent applicable, (x) copies of all insurance documentation for the Audited Year and Stub Period, (xi) copies of accounts receivable aging as of the end of the Audited Year and Stub Period along with an explanation for all accounts over thirty (30) days past due as of the end of the Audited Year and Stub Period, and (xii) signed representation letter and audit inquiry letter substantially in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit J and Exhibit K, respectively. Buyer agrees that, to the extent that any of the items described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (xi) are in Manager’s possession and Buyer obtains such items directly from Manager, Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied the foregoing obligations with respect thereto. Seller agrees that if after Closing Buyer is required by the Securities and Exchange Commission to provide any additional financial or other information regarding any SEC Filings, Seller shall instruct Manager to, and Seller will otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate (at no cost or expense to Seller other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which Buyer agrees in writing to reimburse) with Buyer in connection with the preparation of such information, including providing access to certain information at the Communities or at Seller’s offices, as applicable.  Further, Seller agrees that if Buyer is required by the Securities and Exchange Commission to provide additional items related to such information, Seller shall instruct Manager to, and Seller will otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to, cooperate with Buyer (at no cost or expense to Seller other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which Buyer agrees in writing to reimburse) to deliver such related items.  Seller acknowledges that the foregoing provisions are of material importance to Buyer as a subsidiary of a publicly registered company.  For greater certainty, this Section 11.1.8 shall survive Closing. 
11.1.9    REIT Status.  Seller acknowledges that the Company is a publicly registered real estate investment trust (“REIT”).  Seller further acknowledges that as a publicly registered REIT, the Company is subject to certain filing and reporting requirements in accordance with federal laws and regulations, including regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or the provisions of any other existing agreement between the parties hereto to the contrary, the Company may publicly file, disclose, report or publish any and all information related to this transaction that it reasonably and in good faith interprets as being required by federal law or regulation in connection with qualifying, maintaining or preserving Buyer’s status as a REIT or a publicly registered company.  Seller further agrees that it shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer (at no cost or expense to Seller other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which Buyer agrees in writing to 

37

reimburse) in complying with any and all laws, regulations, ordinances, requirements and restrictions in maintaining the Company’s status as a REIT or a publicly registered company in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.  For greater certainty, this Section 11.1.9 shall survive Closing. 
11.1.10    Insurance. In addition, Sellers covenant and agree that they will endeavor in good faith to cause Buyer and Manager and such as their Affiliates as are identified to Sellers prior to Closing to be named as additional insureds on the general liability insurance policy maintained by Sellers.
11.2    Covenants of Buyer.  Buyer hereby covenants with Sellers as follows:
11.2.1    Governmental Approvals. Buyer shall promptly commence, diligently pursue and use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all Required Governmental Approvals prior to the Closing Date, and shall keep Sellers informed of Buyer’s progress with respect thereto.  For greater certainty, this Section 11.2.1 shall survive Closing.
11.2.2    Communication with Governmental Authorities. Except in connection with Buyer’s efforts to obtain Required Governmental Approvals as contemplated in this Agreement,  Buyer shall not, through its officers, employees, managers, contractors, consultants, agents, representatives or any other Person  (including Buyer’s Representatives), directly or indirectly, communicate with any Governmental Authority or any official, employee or representative thereof, involving any matter with respect to the Properties or the Businesses without Sellers’ prior written consent, which may be withheld in Sellers’ sole discretion, unless such communication is arranged by Sellers.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  Buyer and its representatives, attorneys, advisors and consultants shall have the right, without any requirement to obtain the consent of Sellers, to (i) review building department, health department and other local Governmental Authority records with respect to the Real Properties and the operation of the Businesses and to request confirmations or certifications from zoning or land use authorities or departments regarding the compliance of the Property with zoning and land use laws, and (ii) apply to the applicable Governmental Authority for any licenses or permits necessary or desirable for Buyer’s continued operation of the Businesses after Closing. 
11.2.3    Communication with Residents and Employees.  Buyer shall not, through its officers, employees, managers, contractors, consultants, agents, representatives or any other Person (including Buyer’s Representatives), directly or indirectly, communicate with any Resident or Employee or any Person representing any Resident or Employees involving any matter with respect to the Properties or the Businesses, the Residents, the Employees or this Agreement, without the applicable Seller’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably or arbitrarily withheld, delayed or conditioned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon no less than two 

38

(2) Business Day’s prior notice to Sellers and Manager,  Buyer may as part of its inspections, hold discussions with the Executive Director of each Community, and at Sellers’ option, Sellers or their designee shall be present during any such discussions.
11.3    Licenses and Permits.
11.3.1    Licenses and Permits.  Buyer shall be responsible for obtaining the transfer of all transferable Licenses and Permits (which may include transfers of the Existing Operating Licenses) or the issuance of new licenses and permits, including the licenses and permits required for Buyer’s continued and uninterrupted operation of the Communities as currently operated  (the “New Operating Licenses”).  Buyer, at its cost and expense, shall submit all necessary applications and other materials to the appropriate Governmental Authority and take such other actions to effect the transfer of Licenses and Permits or issuance of new licenses and permits, including the New Operating Licenses, as of Closing, and Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts (at no cost or expense to Sellers other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which Buyer agrees in writing to reimburse) to cooperate and to instruct Manager to cooperate with Buyer to cause the Licenses and Permits to be transferred or new licenses and permits to be issued to  Buyer. If this Agreement is terminated and Buyer has filed an application or otherwise commenced the processing of obtaining new licenses and permits, Buyer shall withdraw all such applications and cease all other activities with respect to such new licenses and permits.
11.3.2    No Closing Condition. Subject to the provisions of this Section, without limiting the obligations of the Parties under Section 11.2.1 and 11.3.1, the Parties do hereby specifically acknowledge and agree that to the extent the Existing Operating Licenses for any of the Communities are not transferable and/or have not been effectively transferred to  Buyer on the Closing Date, subject to Seller’s delivery at Closing of all required Interim Bridging Documents as provided in Section 11.3.3 below, such failure shall not constitute a Buyer Closing Condition Failure, shall not affect in any manner whatsoever the Closing, and Closing shall proceed without any delay or interruption whatsoever.
11.3.3    Interim Bridging Document.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that certain factors outside the reasonable control of the Parties (such as delays in processing applications by the requisite Governmental Authorities) may prevent the Parties from obtaining the Required Governmental Approvals with respect to one or more Communities on or before the Closing Date.  In such event, the Parties will enter into an interim bridging arrangement in order to allow the Existing Operating License(s) for such Community(ies) to remain in full force and effect following Closing until such time as the New Operating Licenses have been issued to Buyer (and all such documents, whether one or more, respecting each such bridged Community, the “Interim Bridging Document”). The Parties will agree upon the form of each such Interim Bridging Document on or prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, with appropriate modifications thereafter 

39

to accommodate requirements of the specific jurisdictions in which the Communities are located.  If required by Applicable Law, the Parties shall submit a copy of any such Interim Bridging Document and timely provide such other required notifications or filings to the appropriate Governmental Authority(ies) to permit Closing to occur as scheduled, and to the extent any notifications or filings to the appropriate Governmental Authority(ies) are required after Closing, the Parties shall timely provide the same.. Nothing contained herein shall operate to relieve Buyer from its obligations under Section 11.2.1 to promptly commence, diligently pursue and use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all Required Governmental Approvals prior to the Closing Date.  
11.3.4    Survival.  For greater certainty, this Section 11.3. shall survive the Closing.
11.4    Employees.
11.4.1    Termination and Rehiring of Employees. Buyer shall cause Employer to continue the employment of, such Employees as Buyer deems appropriate, with such employment to continue in effect as of the Closing; provided, however, that Buyer shall cause Employer to continue the employment of a sufficient number of Employees and upon such terms and conditions as are necessary to prevent any Seller Entity from incurring any Liability under the WARN Act.  Buyer shall be responsible for all Liabilities (including Liabilities arising under the WARN Act and Liabilities for severance pay or similar payments) with respect to the termination of any Employees from and after the Closing Date, and Buyer shall indemnify and hold each Seller Entity harmless with respect to all such Liabilities.  The Employees who continue in employment with Employer, are referred to collectively herein as the “Hired Employees”.  Within ten (10) Business Days after the Effective Date, Sellers shall instruct Manager to provide to Buyer the number of Employees terminated within the previous ninety (90) days at each Community.  Buyer shall, at least five (5) Business Days prior to Closing, provide Sellers a list of any Employees that Buyer intends not to retain after Closing,  and promptly after the Closing Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller identifying those Employees not retained by Employer. 
11.4.2    Compensation of Hired Employees. The employment of the Hired Employees shall be on such terms as Buyer (or Employer) deems appropriate and consistent with  Buyer’s (or Employer’s) standard policies and practices; provided, however, that such terms of employment shall comply with all Applicable Laws relating to the Employees and be sufficient to prevent any Seller Entity from incurring any Liability under the WARN Act.
11.4.3    Service Credit for Hired Employees. For all purposes,  under the employee benefit plans of Buyer and or its manager and Affiliates from and after the Closing (the “Post-Closing Plans”), each Hired Employee will be credited with his or her years of service with 

40

Sellers, Manager and Employer through the Closing (including predecessor or acquired entities or any Affiliates or other entities for which Sellers, Manager or Employer have given credit for prior service), to the same extent as such Hired Employee was entitled, immediately prior to the Closing, to credit for such service under the corresponding employee benefit plan of Sellers, Manager or Employer, except (i) for purposes of benefit accrual under defined benefit plans and (ii) to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits.  To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Buyer shall (and shall cause its manager and other Affiliates, as applicable) to assume and honor all paid time off that each Hired Employee has accrued with Sellers, Manager and/or Employer that remains unused as of immediately prior to the Closing, and such amounts shall not be subject to proration.  In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall cause each Hired Employee to continue to be eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all Post-Closing Plans upon the implementation thereof to the extent coverage under such Post-Closing Plans replaces coverage under a similar or comparable employee benefit plan of Sellers, Manager or Employer in which such Hired Employee participated immediately before the Closing. If applicable, Buyer shall also credit the Hired Employees and their eligible dependents under its and its manager’s and Affiliates’ health care plans for any amounts paid toward deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums by such Hired Employees and enrolled dependents for the year of the Closing under a health care plan maintained by Sellers, Manager or Employer. 
11.4.4    Survival. For greater certainty, this Section 11.4 shall survive the Closing.
11.5    Tax Contests. 
11.5.1    Taxable Period Terminating Prior to Closing Date. Sellers shall retain the right to commence, continue and settle any proceeding to contest any Taxes, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, for any taxable period which terminates prior to the Closing Date, and shall be entitled to any refunds or abatements of Taxes for such periods prior to the Closing Date awarded in such proceedings.  For greater certainty, this Section 11.5.1 shall survive the Closing.
11.5.2    Taxable Period Including the Closing Date. Sellers, at the sole expense of Sellers (except for the reimbursement rights set forth below) shall have the right to commence, continue and settle any proceeding to contest any Taxes for any taxable period which includes the Closing Date subject to Buyer’s right to approve any such contests commenced after the expiration of the Due Diligence Period.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if  Buyer desires to contest any Taxes for such taxable period and the applicable Seller has not commenced any proceeding to contest any such Taxes for such taxable period,  Buyer shall provide written notice requesting that such Seller contest such Taxes. If such Seller desires to contest such Taxes, such Seller shall provide written notice to  Buyer within ten (10) days after receipt of  Buyer’s request confirming that such Seller will contest such Taxes, in which case such Seller shall proceed to 

41

contest such Taxes, and  Buyer shall not have the right to contest such Taxes. If such Seller fails to provide such written notice confirming that it will contest such Taxes within such ten (10) day period,  Buyer shall have the right to contest such Taxes. Any refunds or abatements awarded in such proceedings shall be used first to reimburse the Party contesting such Taxes for the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such Party in contesting such Taxes, and the remainder of such refunds or abatements shall be prorated between the applicable Seller and Buyer as of the Cut-Off Time, and the Party receiving such refunds or abatements promptly shall pay such prorated amount due to the other Party. This Section 11.5.2 shall survive the Closing.  For purposes of determining each Party’s prorated amount of refunds or abatements, (1) in the case of Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts or imposed on a transactional basis, the amount shall be determined according to the extent to which Seller or Buyer was the owner of fee title in and to the relevant Property or Properties at the time of such income, receipt or transaction and (2) in the case of other Taxes, on a pro rata per diem basis.
11.5.3    Taxable Period Commencing After Closing Date.  Buyer shall have the right to commence, continue and settle any proceedings to contest Taxes for any taxable period which commences after the Closing Date, and shall be entitled to any refunds or abatements of Taxes awarded in such proceedings. For greater certainty, this Section 11.5.3 shall survive the Closing.
11.5.4    Cooperation. Sellers and  Buyer shall (and, if applicable, shall cause their respective managers to) use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Party contesting the Taxes (at no cost or expense to the Party not contesting the Taxes other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which the requesting Party agrees in  writing to reimburse) and to execute and deliver any documents and instruments reasonably requested by the Party contesting the Taxes in furtherance of the contest of such Taxes. For greater certainty, this Section 11.5.4 shall survive the Closing.
11.6    Notices and Filings. Sellers and  Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts (and shall cause their respective managers to) to cooperate with each other (at no cost or expense to the Party whose cooperation is requested, other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which the requesting Party agrees in writing to reimburse) to provide written notice to any Person under any Resident Agreements, Tenant Leases, Contracts, and Licenses and Permits, and to effect any registrations or filings with any Governmental Authority or other Person, regarding the change in ownership of the Properties or the Businesses. For greater certainty, this Section 11.6 shall survive the Closing.
11.7    Access to Information. After the Closing, (at no cost or expense to Buyer other than any de minimis cost or expense or any cost or expense which Sellers agree in writing to reimburse), Buyer shall provide to the officers, employees, agents and representatives of any of the 

42

Seller Entities reasonable access to (i) the Books and Records with respect to the Communities applicable to the periods prior to the Closing, (ii) the Properties and (iii) the employees at the Communities, for any purpose reasonably deemed necessary or advisable by Sellers to prepare any documents required to be filed by Sellers under Applicable Law or to investigate, evaluate and defend any claim, charge, audit, litigation or other proceeding made by any Person or insurance company involving any Seller Entity; provided, however, that (A) such Seller Entities shall provide reasonable prior notice to  Buyer; (B)  Buyer shall not be required to provide such access during non-business hours; (C)  Buyer shall have the right to accompany the officer, employees, agents or representatives of such Seller Entities in providing access to the Books and Records, the Properties or the employees of  Buyer (or  Buyer’s manager) as provided in this Section 11.7; (D)  Buyer shall not be required to provide such access to materials or information to the extent the same (x) are legally privileged or constitute attorney work product, (y) are subject to a confidentiality agreement or to Applicable Law prohibiting their disclosure by  Buyer, or (z) constitute confidential internal assessments, reports, studies, memoranda, notes or other correspondence prepared by or on behalf of any officer or employee of  Buyer, (E) such access shall not unreasonably interfere with Community operations, and (F) nothing contained herein shall be deemed to impose upon Buyer to maintain any Books and Records other than to the extent required to permit Buyer to comply with its obligations under this Section 11.7.  Buyer, at its cost and expense, shall retain all Books and Records with respect to the Communities for a period equal to the applicable statute of limitations for the matter for which Seller is requesting such access. For greater certainty, this Section 11.7 shall survive the Closing. 
11.8    Privacy Laws. To the extent Buyer reviews, is given access to or otherwise obtains any Resident Data as part of the purchase of the Properties and the Businesses,  Buyer shall at all times comply in all material respects with all Applicable Law concerning (i) the privacy and use of such Resident Data and the sharing of such information and data with third parties (including any restrictions with respect to Buyer’s or any third party’s ability to use, transfer, store, sell, or share such information and data), and (ii) the establishment of adequate security measures to protect such Resident Data.

Any item which cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and adjusted when the information is available in accordance with this subsection.  The Parties shall attempt in good faith to reconcile any differences or disputes regarding such estimated closing statement prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that if the Parties are unable to agree upon one or more matters on the Closing Statement, then Manager’s good faith estimate with respect to such matters shall prevail for purposes of Closing and pending the re-adjustment contemplated by this Section 15.

No claim for any Post-Closing Obligation (a “Post-Closing Claim”) will be actionable or payable if (i) Buyer does not notify Seller and Escrow Holder in writing of such Post-Closing Claim within the  Survival Period and commence a “legal action” thereon within three (3) months after the expiration of the Survival Period, or (ii) the Post-Closing Claim in question results from or is based on a condition, state of facts or other matters which Buyer obtains Knowledge of prior to Closing. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Sellers shall have no obligation to Buyer pursuant to this Section 16 to the extent that the aggregate amount of all Liabilities incurred by Buyer for Post-Closing Claims (A) does not exceed One Million and no/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) (the “Deductible”), and if such Liabilities exceed the Deductible, Buyer shall not be entitled to recover 

56

from Sellers any Liabilities up to the Deductible, or (B) which exceed, in the aggregate, one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price (the “Cap”). At Closing, Sellers shall deposit an amount equal to the Cap into escrow with Escrow Holder pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit H in order to secure the performance by Sellers of its Post-Closing Obligations (the “Escrow Holdback Agreement”). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall Sellers have any liability to Buyer for consequential, punitive, exemplary, special, treble or other forms of multiple or other non-actual damages.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Sellers covenant and agree that (i) Fountains Senior Living Holdings, LLC shall not be dissolved, wound up or otherwise terminated prior to the end of the Survival Period, and (ii) none of the other Sellers shall be dissolved, wound up or otherwise terminated prior to December 31, 2015; provided that if any such Seller is dissolved, wound up or otherwise terminated prior to the end of the Survival Period that, in connection with such dissolution, winding up or termination Fountains Senior Living Holdings, LLC shall assume such Seller’s obligations under this Agreement.
16.2    Buyer Assumed Liabilities. Without limiting the Liabilities Buyer is responsible for as the purchaser and/or owner of the Properties, at Closing, Buyer shall assume (1) any and all Liabilities attributable to the Properties to the extent that the same first arise or accrue from and after the Closing or are attributable to events or circumstances (such as any tort claims, actions, omissions, accidents, injuries, breach of obligations, or other loss or damage) that first occur on or after the Closing; (2) any and all Entrance Fee Liabilities any obligation to refund the same, whether such obligation accrued prior to or after Closing (and such assumption shall be without adjustment to the Purchases Price), (3) all Liabilities accruing from and after the Closing Date in respect of or relating to the Hired Employees, and (4) any and all Liabilities to the extent that Buyer has received a credit at Closing (the “Assumed Liabilities”). For greater clarity, the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Section 16.2 shall survive the Closing.  Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Entities from and against any Loss incurred by any Seller Entity to the extent resulting from (i) any breach of any express representations or warranties of Buyer in this Agreement which expressly survives the Closing or termination of this Agreement (as the case may be), (ii) any breach by Buyer of any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement which expressly survives the Closing or termination of this Agreement (as the case may be) and (iii) Assumed Liabilities. In no event shall Assumed Liabilities include any Seller Retained Liabilities.
16.3    Indemnification Procedures.  
16.3.1    Notification.  A Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”), shall promptly notify the Party or Parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any pending or threatened claim or demand that the Indemnified Party has determined gives or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a 

57

right of indemnification under such agreement (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, such claim being a “Third Party Claim”), describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim or demand; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Section 16 except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure, it being agreed that notices for claims in respect of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement must be delivered prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in this Agreement for such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.
16.3.2    Defense of Claim.  Upon receipt of a notice of a Third Party Claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 16.1 or Section 16.2, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled, by notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim, to assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and at the expense of such Indemnifying Party); provided that the Indemnifying Party shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense; and provided, further, that if the parties to the action or proceeding include both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by legal counsel that it has available to it one or more defenses or counterclaims which are inconsistent with one or more defenses or counterclaims which may be alleged by the Indemnifying Party, as a result of which representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, the reasonable expense of one separate counsel for such Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party.  If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 16.3.2, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense, but the Indemnifying Party may nonetheless participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense.  If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall select counsel and shall use commercially reasonable efforts in the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim.  Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of their Affiliates and representatives to, reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by furnishing books and records, personnel and witnesses, as appropriate for any defense of such Third Party Claim.  If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, it shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any Indemnified Party; provided that such settlement or judgment does not involve any injunctive relief binding on any of the Indemnified Parties or finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall (i) pay or cause to be paid all amounts 

58

in such settlement or judgment at the time of such settlement (other than solely with respect to the Deductible, to the extent such liabilities would constitute Liabilities to which the Deductible would be applicable in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 16.1.2) and (ii) obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete and unconditional release of any Indemnified Party potentially affected by such Third Party Claim.  No Indemnified Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.  
16.3.3    Mitigation; Additional Indemnification Provisions.  Each Indemnified Party shall use, and cause its Affiliates to use, commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any claim or liability that an Indemnified Party asserts under this Section 16 (including by taking commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance and indemnity provisions covering any Liabilities for which it is seeking indemnification hereunder, to the same extent as it would if such Liability were not subject to indemnification hereunder).  In the event that an Indemnified Party shall fail to use or cause its Affiliates to use such commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any claim or Liability, then notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Party shall be required to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any Liability that could reasonably be expected to have been avoided if the Indemnified Party had made such efforts.  For purposes of this Agreement, Liabilities shall be calculated after giving effect to any related tax benefit and amounts recovered from third parties, including amounts recovered under insurance policies with respect to such Liabilities, net of any costs to recover such amounts.  Any Indemnified Party having a claim under these indemnification provisions shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance and indemnity provisions covering any Liabilities for which it is seeking indemnification hereunder, to the same extent as it would if such Liability were not subject to indemnification hereunder.  For purposes of any indemnification or similar obligation under this Agreement, including in this Section 16, the indemnified party will not, in any event, be entitled to any incidental, indirect, consequential, special, exemplary or punitive damages, including actual or potential lost profits, diminution in value or measures of damages based on a multiple; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that any damages recovered by a third party against an indemnified party entitled to indemnification shall be included in such Indemnified Party’s Liabilities, regardless of the nature of the damages recovered by such third party.
16.3.4    Subrogation.  In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party to any Indemnifying Party (including pursuant to this Agreement) in connection with any claim or demand by any Person other than the Parties hereto or their respective Affiliates, such Indemnified Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnifying Party as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnified Party may have any right, defense or claim relating to such claim or demand against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such claim or demand.  Such Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with such Indemnified Party in a 

59

reasonable manner, and at the cost of such Indemnified Party, in presenting any subrogated right, defense or claim.
16.3.5    No Duplication.  Any Liability for indemnification under this Agreement shall be determined without duplication of recovery due to the facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant.
17.    Damage or Destruction.
17.1    Material Casualty.  In the event any single Community is damaged in any material respect, or destroyed by fire or any other casualty prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall promptly provide Buyer with written notice of such casualty and Sellers’ estimate (based on the information available to Sellers at such time) of the cost to repair the same.  If the estimated cost to repair such Community exceeds twenty million dollars ($20,000,000.00) (a “Material Casualty”), Buyer shall have the right, which right shall be exercised within five (5) Business Days after Buyer receives notice of such Material Casualty, to either (a) terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller and Escrow Holder, in which event this Agreement shall terminate, the Deposit (less the Independent Consideration) shall be refunded to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except for those obligations that expressly survive the termination hereof, or (b) proceed to Closing as scheduled, in which case this Agreement shall not terminate and (i) the applicable Seller shall cause all collected insurance proceeds to be paid over to Buyer (or credited against the Purchase Price with an additional credit for any deductible, self-insured or uninsured amounts) at Closing, (ii) the applicable Seller shall assign to Buyer all right, title and interest in and to all claims and proceeds such Seller may have with respect to all policies of insurance relating to the Property at Closing (except for those proceeds allocable to lost profits and costs incurred by Sellers prior to Closing), and (iii) the applicable Seller shall pay over to Buyer all insurance proceeds collected after Closing by such Seller promptly upon receipt thereof.  If Buyer shall fail to timely deliver the termination notice in accordance with subparagraph (a) above, then Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with Closing in accordance with subparagraph (b) above.  In the event any single Community is damaged in any material respect, or destroyed by fire or any other casualty prior to the Closing Date, and such damage does not constitute a Material Casualty, then the Parties shall proceed to Closing in accordance with subparagraph (b) above.
17.2    Eminent Domain.  If, before the Closing Date, proceedings are commenced for the taking by exercise of the power of eminent domain of any part of the Real Property comprising a Community, Sellers shall promptly provide Buyer with written notice of such proceeding, together with an estimate (based on information available to Seller at such time) of the value of the Real Property that is the subject of the proceeding.  If such estimated value exceeds Twenty Million and 00/100 Dollars ($20,000,000.00) (a “Material Condemnation”), Buyer shall have the right, which right shall be exercised within five (5) Business Days after Buyer receives notice of such Material 

60

Condemnation, to either (a) terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller and Escrow Holder, in which event this Agreement shall terminate, the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration) shall be refunded to Buyer, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement except for those obligations that expressly survive the termination hereof, or (b) proceed to Closing as scheduled in which case this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and, on the Closing Date, the condemnation award (or, if not theretofore received, the right to receive such portion of the award) payable on account of the taking shall be assigned, or paid to, Buyer.  If Buyer shall fail to timely deliver the termination notice in accordance with subparagraph (a) above, then Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with Closing in accordance with subparagraph (b) above.  In the event any proceedings are commenced for the taking by exercise of the power of eminent domain of any part of the Real Property comprising a Community prior to the Closing Date, and such proceeding do not constitute a Material Condemnation, then the Parties shall proceed to Closing in accordance with subparagraph (b) above.
18.    Notices.  All notices, demands, or other communications of any type given by any Party hereunder, whether required by this Agreement or in any way related to the transaction contracted for herein, shall be void and of no effect unless given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 18.  All notices shall be in writing and delivered to the person to whom the notice is directed, either (a) in person, (b) by United States Mail, as a registered or certified item, return receipt requested, (c) by facsimile transmission (with confirmation by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service), (d) by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service or (e) by email, with confirmation of receipt.  Notices transmitted to the then designated facsimile number of the Party intended to be given notice shall be deemed received upon electronic verification of receipt by the sending machine, notices sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service shall be deemed received on the next Business Day and notices delivered by certified or registered mail shall be deemed delivered three (3) days following posting.  Notices shall be given to the following addresses:

19.    Remedies.
19.1    Seller Default.  If any Seller fails to perform, defaults or breaches its covenants, obligations, representations or warranties under this Agreement in any material respect (or with respect to any covenant, obligation, representation or warranty that is qualified by “materiality” or “material adverse effect,” (or correlative terms) any Seller defaults in any respect with respect to such covenant, obligation, representation or warranty), and no Buyer Default has occurred which remains uncured, and such failure to perform, default or breach continues for more than ten (10) days after written notice from Buyer specifying the same in reasonable detail (provided, however, that there shall be no cure period for Seller’s failure to deliver the Seller Closing Deliveries at Closing)  (a “Seller Default”), Buyer shall have the option, as its sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity, to either (a) terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice of termination to Sellers, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate, Buyer and Sellers shall each be released from all liability hereunder (except for those provisions which recite that they survive termination), the Deposit (less the Independent Contract Consideration) shall be returned to Buyer, and Sellers shall reimburse Buyer for all of Buyer’s documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, not to exceed One Million and no/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00), or (b) waive such Seller Default and proceed to Closing without any reduction in the Purchase Price, or (c) if the Seller Default is due to Seller’s refusal or inability to deliver the Seller Closing Deliveries in violation of its obligations under this Agreement, bring 

63

an equitable action to enforce this Agreement by specific performance; provided, however, that with respect to an action for specific performance, (i) Buyer shall provide written notice of  Buyer’s intention to enforce this Agreement, the specific performance, and (ii) Buyer’s suit for specific performance shall be filed against the applicable Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the county and state in which the applicable Property is located, on or before ninety (90) days following the Seller Default, failing which, Buyer shall be barred from enforcing this Agreement by specific performance and shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement as provided herein.  Nothing contained herein is intended to or shall be construed to limit any right or remedy of Buyer after the Closing for any Post-Closing Claim, which shall be governed by Section 16.1. 
19.2    Buyer Default.  If Buyer fails to perform, defaults or breaches its covenants, obligations, representations or warranties under this Agreement in any material respect (or with respect to any covenant, obligation, representation or warranty that is qualified by “materiality” or “material adverse effect,” (or correlative terms) Buyer defaults in any respect with respect to such covenant, obligation, representation or warranty), and no Seller Default has occurred which remains uncured, and such failure to perform, default or breach continues for more than ten (10) days after written notice from Sellers specifying the same in reasonable detail (provided, however, that there shall be no cure period for Buyer’s failure to deliver the Purchase Price at Closing)  (a “Buyer Default”), Sellers shall have the option, as their sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity, to either (i) terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice of termination to Sellers, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate, Buyer and Sellers shall each be released from all liability hereunder (except for those provisions which recite that they survive termination), the Deposit shall be paid to Sellers as liquidated damages, or (ii) waive such Buyer Default and proceed to Closing without any increase in the Purchase Price. 
19.3    LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.  BUYER AND SELLERS AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ESTIMATE THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLERS MAY SUFFER.  THEREFORE BUYER AND SELLERS DO HEREBY AGREE THAT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE TOTAL NET DETRIMENT THAT SELLERS WOULD SUFFER IN THE EVENT THAT THE CLOSING DOES NOT OCCUR AS HEREIN PROVIDED ON OR BEFORE THE OUTSIDE CLOSING DATE BY REASON OF ANY DEFAULT BY BUYER IS AND SHALL BE AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE DEPOSIT; AND, AS SELLERS’ SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY (WHETHER AT LAW OR IN EQUITY) FOR THE CLOSING NOT OCCURRING AS HEREIN PROVIDED ON OR BEFORE THE OUTSIDE CLOSING DATE BY REASON OF ANY DEFAULT BY BUYER, SAID AMOUNT SHALL BE DISBURSED TO SELLERS AS THE FULL, AGREED AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR A BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT BY BUYER.  SUCH PAYMENT OF THE DEPOSIT IS NOT INTENDED AS A PENALTY, BUT AS FULL LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR SUCH BREACH.  NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 19.3 SHALL WAIVE, AFFECT OR LIMIT BUYER’S INDEMNITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS OR BUYER’S 

64

LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH INDEMNITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS.

20.    Assignment.  Buyer may not assign, transfer or convey its rights and obligations under this Agreement or in the Property (each, an “Assignment”) without the prior written consent of Sellers, which consent may be given or withheld in Seller’s sole discretion; provided, that Buyer shall have the right, without the consent of Sellers, to effectuate an Assignment to any one or more of the following Persons: (a) NorthStar Asset Management Group, Inc. (“NSAM”), (b) a managed company or strategic partnered vehicle of NSAM, (c) The Freshwater Group, or (d) an Affiliate of a Person described in the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c).  Any Assignment, to the extent permitted or otherwise approved by Sellers pursuant to this Section 20, shall (i) be in writing in a form acceptable to Sellers, executed by Buyer and the assignee thereunder, and delivered to Sellers at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, (ii) provide for the assignee to assume all of Buyer’s obligations hereunder and succeed to all of Buyer’s rights and remedies hereunder, and (iii) not relieve Buyer from any liability under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have the right, without the consent of Sellers, and without effectuating an Assignment, to designate one or more special purpose entities controlled by Buyer to take title to any one or more individual Properties at Closing; provided that in such event Buyer shall continue to be liable under this Agreement.   
21.    Interpretation and Applicable Law.  This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.  Where required for proper interpretation, words in the singular shall include the plural; the masculine gender shall include the neuter and the feminine, and vice versa.  The terms “successors and assigns” shall include the heirs, administrators, executors, successors, and assigns, as applicable, of any Party hereto. The terms “include”, “includes”, and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by “without limitation” whether or not they are in fact followed by such words or words of similar import.
22.    Amendment.  This Agreement may not be modified or amended, except by an agreement in writing signed by the Parties.  The Parties may waive any of the conditions contained herein or any of the obligations of the other Party hereunder, but any such waiver shall be effective only if in writing and signed by the Party waiving such conditions and obligations. 
23.    Attorneys’ Fees.  In the event a dispute arises concerning the performance, meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or any document executed in connection with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such dispute shall be awarded any and all costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party in enforcing, defending or establishing its rights hereunder or 

65

thereunder, including court costs and attorneys and expert witness fees.  In addition to the foregoing award of costs and fees, the prevailing party shall also be entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees incurred in any post judgment proceedings to collect or enforce any judgment.
24.    Entire Agreement; Survival.  This Agreement, including all Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto, together with the Non-Disclosure Agreement and the Access and Exclusivity Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith.  No representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, or condition not expressed in this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties hereto nor shall affect or be effective to interpret, change, or restrict the provisions of this Agreement.  The obligations of the Parties hereunder and all other provisions of this Agreement shall survive the Closing of this Agreement, except as expressly limited herein.
25.    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which when taken together shall constitute the entire agreement of the Parties.
26.    Time Is of the Essence; Calculation of Time Periods.  Time is of the essence in this Agreement as to each provision in which time is an element of performance.  Unless otherwise specified, in computing any period of time described herein, the day of the act or event after which the designated period of time begins to run is not to be included and the last day of the period so computed is to be included, except that if such last day falls upon a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday under the Federal law or laws of the State(s) where the Property is located, then such period shall run until the end of the next day that is neither a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday under Federal law or the laws of the State(s) where the Property is located.  Unless otherwise provided herein, the last day of any period of time described herein shall be deemed to end at 11:59 p.m. New York, NY time.
27.    Real Estate Commission.  Seller and Buyer each represent and warrant to the other that neither Seller nor Buyer has contacted or entered into any agreement with any real estate broker, agent, finder or any other Party in connection with this transaction, and that neither Party has taken any action which would result in any real estate broker’s, finder’s or other fees or commissions being due and payable to any Party with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby, except that Seller will pay a commission to Brokers under the terms of a separate agreement among Sellers and Brokers.  Such commission shall be payable on the Closing Date from the proceeds of the Purchase Price deposited by Buyer.  Each Party hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold the other Party harmless from any Liability resulting to the other Party by reason of a breach of the representation and warranty made by such Party in this Section 27.

66

28.    Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person, place, or circumstance, shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable or void, the remainder of this Agreement and such provisions as applied to other persons, places and circumstances shall remain in full force and effect.
29.    Intentionally Omitted.
30.    No Option; Binding Effect.  The submission of this Agreement for examination and review does not constitute an option to purchase the Property, an offer to sell the Property or an agreement to purchase and sell.  This Agreement shall have no binding effect and will only be effective upon Sellers’ and Buyer’s execution and mutual receipt of the executed version of this Agreement.  Escrow Holder’s execution of this Agreement shall not be a prerequisite to the effectiveness of this Agreement.
31.    Public Announcements.  Buyer shall have the right to make a public announcement regarding the transaction described in this Agreement only after the Closing; provided, however, that Sellers shall approve the form and substance of any such public announcement, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
32.    No Recording.  Buyer shall not record this Agreement, nor any memorandum or other notice of this Agreement, in any public records, and any such recordation shall be a material default by Buyer hereunder.  Buyer hereby grants a power of attorney to each Seller (which power is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable) to execute and record on behalf of Buyer a memorandum or other notice removing this Agreement or any memorandum or other notice of this Agreement from the public records, or evidencing the termination of this Agreement.
33.    Joint and Several Liability of Sellers.  All liabilities and obligations of Sellers under this Agreement shall be joint and several.

4.Due Diligence Period. The Due Diligence Period is hereby extended to 11:59 pm (EST) on April 1, 2015, and all references to the term “Due Diligence Period” in the Agreement shall mean and refer to the Due Diligence Period as extended by this Amendment.
