at the Closing with respect to the Assets as of 11:59 p.m., Eastern Standard

Closing:
(i) Real property taxes and assessments (or installments
thereof), and payments required to be made to any business improvement
district and vault charges;
(ii) Water rates and charges;
(iii) Sewer taxes and rents;
(iv) Permit, license and inspection fees, if any, on the
basis of the fiscal year for which levied, if the rights with respect

(v) Fuel, if any, at the cost per gallon most recently
charged to Seller, based on the supplier's measurements thereof, plus
sales taxes thereon;
(vi) Amounts paid or payable by Seller to merchants' and
other associations, to promotional funds and other similar contributions
or payments;
(vii) Deposits on account with any utility company servicing
the Real Property, to the extent transferred to Purchaser shall not be
apportioned, but Seller shall receive a credit in the full amount thereof
(including accrued interest thereon, if any);
(viii) Any rents or other amounts prepaid or payable under
the Resident Agreements and the Leases shall be apportioned between the
parties. All security deposits or reserves (and all interest earned
thereon as required by either Legal Requirements or by the terms of the
applicable Resident Agreements and the Leases) deposited under any of the
Resident Agreements and the Leases shall be transferred or credited to
Purchaser. As used in this Agreement, the term "rents" includes all
rentals,
6
additional rentals and any other sums and charges payable under the Resident
Agreements and the Leases or in the normal course by Residents and tenants under
the Resident Agreements and the Leases for services rendered in connection with
the occupancy or use of the Real Property or the services provided at the Real
Property or in connection with the occupancy of the Real Property by such
tenants and the Residents. Delinquent rents for the period prior to the Closing
Date shall remain the property of Seller. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller any
rents, received by Purchaser which are properly allocable to rental periods
occurring before the Closing Date. It shall be conclusively presumed between
Purchaser and Seller that all rents received after the Closing Date from
Residents and/or tenants under the Leases and the Resident Agreements with
rental delinquencies on the Closing Date shall be applied as follows: (i) first,
to rent then due and payable to Purchaser (including any previously unpaid or
delinquent rent then due and payable to Purchaser), (ii) second, to rent due for
the period in which the Closing occurs, to be apportioned as provided above;
(iii) third, to the delinquent rents of such Residents and/or tenants under the
Leases and Resident Agreements attributable to the period prior to the Closing
Date due to Seller, and (iv) fourth, to future rent due and payable to
Purchaser. The amount of any refund or credit due to tenants under the Leases or
as the result of the collection by or on behalf of Seller prior to the Closing
Date of contributions by such tenants for operating expenses and/or taxes
(collectively, "Tenant Items") which exceed the actual amount of such operating
expenses and/or taxes payable by such tenants with respect to periods prior to
the Closing Date shall be prorated as soon as such actual operating expenses
and/or taxes are known, and Seller shall promptly pay to Purchaser upon demand
the amount due as a result of such proration. Seller shall not have the right to
xxx for or take any other legal action relating to unpaid rents attributable to
periods preceding the Closing Date. Seller agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in
the preparation of the financial statements and other financial data respecting
the ownership and operation of the Real Property for calendar year 2001, and if
practicable 2002, and subsequent periods for which such statements and data must
be prepared in order to compute, charge and prorate the Tenant Items. As soon as
reasonably possible after the preparation of the aforesaid financial statements
and data, Purchaser will render statements for the Tenant Items to the tenants
and Residents of the Real Property under their respective Leases and Resident
Agreements. From time to time as Purchaser receives payment of the Tenant Items
from the tenants and/or Residents, Purchaser will retain amounts attributable to
Tenant Items due Purchaser and will promptly remit to Seller that portion of the
Tenant Items allocable to the Real Property prior to the Closing Date; and
(ix) All other items customarily apportioned in connection
with the sale of similar properties similarly located.
B. Apportionment of real property taxes, water rates and charges,
sewer taxes and rents and vault charges shall be made on the basis of the most
recently ended fiscal year of Seller for which such taxes, rents and charges
were assessed. Purchaser agrees to assume liability for any real property tax
rate, water rates or charges, sewer taxes or rents or vault charges fixed, for
periods after the Closing Date.
7
C. The amount of any of the unpaid taxes, assessments, water
charges, sewer rents and vault charges which Seller is obligated to pay and
discharge, with interest and penalties thereon (if any) to the Closing Date may,
at Seller's option, be credited to Purchaser out of the balance of the Purchase
Price, provided that official invoices therefor with interest and penalties
thereon (if any) are furnished by Seller at the Closing and provided that the
Title Company will xxxx same as paid and omit same as exceptions from
Purchaser's title insurance policy.
D. If any refund of real property taxes, water rates or charges,
sewer taxes or rents or vault charges is made after the Closing Date covering a
period prior to the Closing Date, the same shall be applied first to the
reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in obtaining same and the balance, if
any, of such refund shall, to the extent received by Purchaser, be paid to
Seller (for the period prior to the Closing Date) and to the extent received by
Seller, be paid to Purchaser (for the period commencing with the Closing Date).
E. If there shall be any meters measuring water consumption or
sewer usage at the Real Property (other than meters measuring water consumption
or sewer usage for which Seller is obligated to pay directly to the taxing
authority or utility), Seller shall attempt to obtain readings to a date not
more than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date. If such readings are not
obtained (and if such readings are obtained, then with respect to any period
between such reading and the Closing Date), water rates and charges and sewer
taxes and rents, if any, shall be apportioned based upon the last meter
readings, subject to reapportionment when readings for the relevant period are
obtained after the Closing Date.
F. If any adjustment or apportionment is miscalculated at the
Closing, or the complete and final information necessary for any adjustment is
unavailable at the Closing, the affected adjustment shall be calculated as soon
as practicable after the Closing. The provisions of this Article 7 shall survive
through and including the date that is 120 days after the Closing Date.

without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall reasonably be
given by Seller, and (ii) Purchaser shall not perform any invasive tests with
respect to the Real Property without the prior written consent of Seller in each
instance, which consent shall be reasonably given. Any entry upon the Real
Property shall be performed in a manner which is not materially disruptive to
the Residents or the normal operation of the Real Property and shall be subject
to the rights of the Residents. Purchaser shall (i) exercise reasonable care at
all times that Purchaser shall be present upon the Real Property, (ii) at
Purchaser's expense, observe and comply with all applicable laws and any
conditions imposed by any insurance policy then in effect with respect to the
Real Property and (iii) not engage in any activities which would violate the
provisions of any permit or license pertaining to the Real Property. Seller
shall have the right to have a representative of Seller accompany Purchaser
during any such communication or entry upon the Real Property and shall make
such representative available at all reasonable times.
B. Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller,
its officers, shareholders, directors, employees, advisors, attorneys and agents
harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, judgment, claim,
damage or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses),
resulting from or arising out of the entry upon the Real Property by Purchaser
and any of its employees, agents, consultants, contractors or advisors. The
foregoing indemnification shall survive for a period of six months from the
Closing or the termination of this Agreement.
C. As a condition precedent to entering the Real Property in
connection with any inspection, Purchaser shall maintain or cause to be
maintained, at Purchaser's sole cost and expense, a policy of comprehensive
general public liability and property damage insurance by an insurer or
syndicate of insurers reasonably acceptable to Seller: (a) with a combined
single limit of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) general

in writing by Seller), as additional insureds, against any injuries or damages
to persons or property that may result from or are related to (x) Purchaser's
entry upon the Real Property and (y) any inspection or other activity conducted
thereon by representatives or agents of Purchaser and (c) containing a provision
that "insurance provided by Purchaser hereunder shall be primary and
noncontributing with any other insurance available to Seller." Purchaser shall
deliver evidence of such insurance coverage to Seller prior to the commencement
of the first inspection and evidence of continued coverage prior to any
subsequent inspection, which evidence shall be acceptable to Seller in its
reasonable discretion.
D. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary,
unless required by applicable law or regulation, or except in the course of
conducting a customary Phase I Environmental Assessment of the Real Property,
neither Purchaser nor any representative or agent of Purchaser shall contact any
Federal, state, county, municipal or other department or governmental agency
regarding any Hazardous Materials on, or the environmental condition of, the
Real Property without Seller's prior written consent thereto. In addition, if
Seller's consent is obtained by Purchaser, Seller shall be entitled to receive
at least five (5) business days prior written notice of the intended contact and
shall be entitled to have a representative present when Purchaser has any such
contact with any governmental official or representative.
E. Concurrently with the Inspection Period (as defined below),
Purchaser is entitled to make any other reviews and studies of the Assets,
including market studies, physical inspections, compliance with laws reviews and
other analysis to determine if the Assets are suitable for Purchaser's purposes,
at which time the Deposit is not at risk. Purchaser can extend the Closing Date
one or more times (with a resulting extension of the Inspection Period) for an
aggregate of an additional sixty (60) days from the originally scheduled Closing
Date if timely reports, materials, surveys, licenses are not received or any
other matters are not satisfactory to Purchaser in Purchaser's sole discretion.
The "Inspection Period" shall mean the period beginning on the date of this
Agreement and ending five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, as such Closing
Date may be extended as provided above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Purchaser elects to extend the Inspection Period beyond January 31, 2002, on
January 31, 2002 Purchaser at its sole option will either waive its right to
terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 10 E. or permit Seller
to enter into a backup contract with a third party purchaser, which contract
shall be expressly subject and subordinate in all respects to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and shall allow the purchaser thereunder to acquire
the Assets only if Purchaser terminates this Agreement. If Purchaser is not
satisfied with any aspect of the Assets, Purchaser shall have the right, in its
sole and absolute discretion and upon notice to Seller (the "Termination
Notice"), to terminate this Agreement at any time during the Inspection Period,
in which event the Deposit plus accrued interest shall be immediately paid to
Purchaser and neither party shall have any additional obligations under this
Agreement other than those obligations that expressly survive termination.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, upon
delivery by Purchaser of the Termination Notice as provided above, Escrow Agent
shall be required and is hereby authorized to deliver the Deposit and all
accrued interest to Purchaser without the prior consent, notice or approval of
Seller.

B. Evidence of Title. Purchaser shall obtain as expeditiously as
possible, but in no event later than twenty-one (21) days after the date hereof,
a report of title for the Real Property issued by the Title Company (the "Title
Report"). At Closing, Purchaser and Seller shall each pay one half to the Title
Company (with Seller's portion not to exceed $75,000.00) of the entire amount of
the premium payable for an ALTA owner's title insurance policy and endorsements
reasonably required by Purchaser, without standard exceptions for parties in
possession, mechanics' liens, and matters of survey, and subject only to the
Permitted Exceptions, in the amount of the Purchase Price, naming Purchaser as
the insured (the "Title Policy"), and Title Company shall xxxx up and
acknowledge the Title Report so as to constitute a Title Policy as of the
Closing Date. The legal descriptions embodied within said Title Reports shall
conform in all respects to the Surveys. Seller, to the extent available, will
deliver to Purchaser any ALTA survey and title policy it may have in its
possession.
C. Objections to Title. For purposes of this Agreement, the term
"Permitted Exceptions" means those exceptions set forth in the Title Reports
which are not objected to by Purchaser pursuant to this Paragraph C. In no event
shall Permitted Exceptions include the standard exceptions set forth in the
Title Reports for parties in possession mechanics' liens, and matters of survey.
In the event the Title Reports contain any exceptions to title, Purchaser shall
have fifteen (15) days from and after the receipt of all of the Title Reports to
approve or object to the condition of title disclosed in the Title Reports.
Purchaser's approval of any such exceptions to title which are not Permitted
Exceptions shall be a condition precedent to Purchaser's obligation to close the
transaction contemplated by this Agreement, which condition Purchaser reserves
the right to waive. Any exceptions to which Purchaser does not object in writing
during the 15-day period shall be deemed approved. If objection to the title is
made, Purchaser shall give Seller ten (10) days from the date it is notified in
writing of the particular defects claimed, either, as Seller shall elect, (a) to
remedy the title matter or (b) to obtain title insurance as required above, and
(c) to decline to remedy (if permitted below and under Paragraph E) the title
matter or obtain title insurance as required above. If Seller elects the option
described in clause (c) above and, if Purchaser has not elected to waive such
defect, the Deposit, plus accrued interest, shall be refunded to Purchaser
forthwith in full termination of this Agreement. Provided all other conditions
precedent set forth in Article 8 of this Agreement have been met to Purchaser's
satisfaction or have been waived by Purchaser, if Seller remedies the title or
obtains a Title Policy acceptable to Purchaser within the time specified,
Purchaser agrees to complete the sale, and if Seller is unable to remedy the
title matter or obtain title insurance within the time specified, or obtain a
waiver from Purchaser, the Deposit plus accrued interest, shall be refunded
forthwith in full termination of this Agreement. Other than as set forth under
Paragraph E below and (i) mechanics' liens for which Seller or any occupant of
the Real Property is liable, (ii) judgment liens against Seller and (iii) any
mortgages or deeds of trust encumbering all or any
13
portion of the Assets, which Seller must cure ("Seller's Encumbrances"), Seller
shall have no obligation to cure Purchaser's objections. The termination of this
Agreement and the refund of the Deposit shall be Purchaser's sole remedy for
Seller's failure to cure an objection other than Seller's Encumbrances and those
matters required to be satisfied pursuant to Paragraph E below. Purchaser shall
have the right to notify Title Company of any matters materially affecting the
titles to the Real Property which have not been disclosed by the Title Reports
after reviewing same with Seller and permitting Seller the opportunity to cure
or dispose of same. In the event such matters, in the opinion of Purchaser
adversely affect the title to Property, Purchaser shall have the right to object
to the condition of the title as provided herein promptly within three days
after Purchaser has actual notice or knowledge thereof. If Seller has not cured
any of Seller's Encumbrances, then Purchaser has the right to pay off the
encumbrance and deduct the amounts paid from the Purchase Price.
D. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article
11(A) of this Agreement, if the Title Report discloses judgments, bankruptcies
or other returns against other persons or entities having names the same as or
similar to that of Seller, Seller, on reasonable request, shall deliver to
Purchaser or Title Company affidavits, if truthful, to the effect that such
judgments, bankruptcies or other returns are not against Seller, in form and
substance sufficient to permit removal of same as exceptions in Purchaser's
title policy.
E. If the Title Report discloses exceptions (other than the
Permitted Exceptions) which (i) may be removed solely by reference to Seller's
existing title policy, or (ii) became of record subsequent to the date hereof
and are attributable to the action or inaction of Seller, or (iii) may be
removed or satisfied by the payment of a liquidated sum of money not in excess
of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the aggregate, then Seller shall remove
such exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, at its option in lieu of
satisfying such exceptions, may deposit with Title Company such amount of money
and provide such documentation, affidavits and indemnities as may be reasonably
requested by Title Company to induce it to insure Purchaser in a manner
reasonably acceptable to Purchaser against collection of such liens and/or
encumbrances, including interest and penalties, out of or against the Assets, in
which event such exceptions shall not be objections to title.
F. Seller shall be entitled to one or more adjournments, not to
exceed thirty (30) days in the aggregate, of the Closing Date to remove any
exceptions to title which Seller is obligated to remove, provided that such
adjournment may not extend beyond the expiration of any financing commitment
provided to Purchaser or an affiliate of Purchaser in connection the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement ("Financing Commitment").
G. Seller and Purchaser shall each pay one-half of (not to exceed
$75,000 on the part of Seller) of the costs of examination of title and any
owner's or mortgagee's policy of title insurance to be issued insuring
Purchaser's title to the Assets, as well as all other title charges, survey
fees, and recording charges incident to the Closing.

ARTICLE 12.
Return of Deposit. Subject to Seller's obligations under Article 11 of
this Agreement and subject to Article 20 of this Agreement, if Seller is unable
to convey title in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or if, in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Purchaser is entitled to and elects
to terminate this Agreement, then this Agreement shall terminate and neither
party to this Agreement shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder,

all interest thereon, if any) and neither party to this Agreement shall
thereafter have any further right or obligation hereunder, except for the rights

ARTICLE 13.
Purchaser's Default. After the expiration of the Inspection Period, if
Purchaser shall default hereunder or shall fail or refuse to perform its
obligations in accordance with this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that
Seller's sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement and retain the Deposit
as liquidated damages. Upon such termination, neither party to this Agreement
shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except subject to Article
16, Escrow Agent shall deliver to Seller and Seller shall retain the Deposit as
liquidated damages. It is expressly understood and agreed that in the event of
Purchaser's default, Seller's damages would be impossible to ascertain and that
the Deposit constitutes a fair and reasonable amount of compensation in such
event and in no event shall the delivery of the Deposit be construed as punitive
damages.

ARTICLE 15.
Condemnation and Destruction.
A. If, prior to the Closing Date, all or any "Significant Portion"
(as hereinafter defined) of all or any of the Real Property is taken, or
rendered unusable for its current purpose or reasonably inaccessible by eminent
domain (or is the subject of a pending or contemplated taking which has not been
consummated), Seller shall notify Purchaser of such fact and Purchaser shall
have the option to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller
delivered not later than five (5) days after receipt of Seller's notice. For
purposes of this Article 15(A) and Article 15(B) hereof, a "Significant Portion"
shall mean twenty-five percent (25%) or more in the aggregate of the area of any
parcel of the Land when used in the context of a taking and $50,000 of damages
to one or more Facilities when used in the context of a casualty. If this
Agreement is terminated as aforesaid, neither party shall have any further
rights or obligations hereunder except that Escrow Agent shall refund to
Purchaser the Deposit. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement,
or if the portion of the Real Property which is taken or rendered unusable or
reasonably inaccessible by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending or
contemplated taking which has not been consummated) is not a Significant Portion
of the Real Property, Purchaser shall accept so much of the Real Property as
remains after such taking with no abatement of the Purchase Price, and at the
Closing, Seller shall assign and turn over to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall be
entitled to receive and keep, all of Seller's interest in and to all awards for
such taking by eminent domain.

notify Purchaser of such fact and Purchaser shall have the option to terminate
this Agreement upon ten (10) days notice to Seller given not later than five (5)
days after receipt of Seller's notice. If Purchaser shall elect to terminate
this Agreement as aforesaid and Seller shall not notify Purchaser within such
ten (10)
20
day period of its intention to make such repairs, this Agreement shall terminate
and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except
that Escrow Agent shall refund to Purchaser the Deposit (together with all
interest thereon, if any). If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this
Agreement as provided above, or if the portion of the Real Property so damaged
or destroyed is not a Significant Portion of the Real Property, Purchaser shall
accept the Real Property in its then "as is" condition with no abatement of the
Purchase Price, and at the Closing, Seller shall assign to Purchaser, and
Purchaser shall be entitled to receive, all of Seller's interest in and to all
casualty insurance proceeds payable in connection with such casualty (except
that the proceeds of any business interruption or rental value insurance payable
to Seller shall be apportioned as of the Closing Date), and, Purchaser shall

ARTICLE 16.
Escrow.
A. The Deposit shall be held in escrow by Escrow Agent upon
the following terms and conditions:
(i) Escrow Agent shall deposit the Deposit in an
interest-bearing account or invest the Deposit in a money market or monetary
fund;
(ii) Escrow Agent shall deliver to Seller the Deposit
(together with all interest thereon, if any) at and upon the Closing; and
(iii) If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the
terms hereof, or if the Closing does not take place under this Agreement by
reason of the failure of either party to comply with such party's obligations
hereunder, Escrow Agent shall pay the Deposit (together with all interest
thereon, if any) to Seller and/or Purchaser, as the case may be, in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement.
B. It is agreed that:
(i) The duties of Escrow Agent are only as herein
specifically provided, and, except for the provisions of Article 16(C) hereof,
are purely ministerial in nature, and Escrow Agent shall incur no liability
whatsoever except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence;
(ii) Escrow Agent shall not be liable or responsible for
the collection of the proceeds of any checks used to pay the Deposit;
(iii) In the performance of its duties hereunder, Escrow
Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any document, instrument or signature
believed by it to be genuine and signed by either of the other parties or their
successors;
(iv) Escrow Agent may assume that any person purporting to
give any notice of instructions in accordance with the provisions hereof has
been duly authorized to do so;
21
(v) Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any modification,
cancellation or rescission of this Agreement unless in writing and signed by it,
Seller and Purchaser;
(vi) Except as otherwise provided in Article 16(C) hereof,
Seller and Purchaser shall jointly and severally reimburse and indemnify Escrow
Agent for, and hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability, costs or
expenses in connection herewith, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements, incurred without willful misconduct or gross negligence on the
part of Escrow Agent arising out of or in connection with its acceptance of, or
the performance of its duties and obligations under, this Agreement, as well as
the reasonable costs and expenses of defending against any claim or liability
arising out of or relating to this Agreement;
(vii) Each of Seller and Purchaser hereby releases and
forever discharges Escrow Agent from any liability arising out of any act done
or omitted to be done by Escrow Agent in good faith in the performance of its
duties hereunder; and
(viii) Escrow Agent may resign for any reason upon ten (10)
days written notice to Seller and Purchaser. If a successor Escrow Agent is not
appointed by Seller and Purchaser within such ten (10) day period, Escrow Agent
may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to name a successor.
C. Escrow Agent is acting as a stakeholder only with respect to the
Deposit. Escrow Agent, except (i) in the event of the Closing, (ii) in
connection with a Termination Notice by Purchaser in accordance with Article 10
E. or (iii) if the Deposit is required to be delivered to Purchaser pursuant to
Article 20 B., shall not deliver the Deposit except on seven (7) days' prior
written notice to the parties and only if neither party shall object within such
seven (7) day period. If there is any dispute as to whether Escrow Agent is
obligated to deliver all or any portion of the Deposit or as to whom such
Deposit is to be delivered, Escrow Agent shall not make any delivery, but in
such event Escrow Agent may hold the same until receipt by Escrow Agent of an
authorization in writing, signed by all of the parties having any interest in
such dispute, directing the disposition of the Deposit (together with all
interest thereon, if any), or in the absence of such authorization, Escrow Agent
may hold the Deposit (together with all interest thereon, if any), until the
final determination of the rights of the parties in an appropriate proceeding.
Notwithstanding the foregoing if Purchaser delivers a Termination Notice in
accordance with Article 10 E. or if Purchaser delivers notice to Escrow Agent
that the Deposit is required to be paid to Purchaser pursuant to Article 20 B.
of the Agreement, Seller authorizes and directs Escrow Agent to immediately
deliver the Deposit to Purchaser without the necessity of any prior notice or
consent by Seller. If such written authorization is not given or proceedings for
such determination are not initiated within thirty (30) days after the date
Escrow Agent shall have received written notice of such dispute, and thereafter
diligently continued, Escrow Agent may, but is not required to, bring an
appropriate action or proceeding for leave to deposit the Deposit (together with
all interest thereon, if any), with a court of competent jurisdiction pending
such determination. Escrow Agent shall be reimbursed for all costs and expenses
of such action or proceeding including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements, by the party determined not to be entitled to
the Deposit, or if the Deposit is split between the parties
22
hereto, such costs of Escrow Agent shall be split, pro rata, between Seller and
Purchaser, in inverse proportion to the amount of the Deposit received by each.
Upon making delivery of the Deposit (together with all interest thereon, if
any), in the manner provided in this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall have no
further obligation or liability hereunder.
D. Escrow Agent has executed this Agreement solely to confirm that
Escrow Agent has received the Deposit (if the Deposit is made by check, subject
to collection) and will hold the Deposit, in escrow, pursuant to the provisions
of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 17.

or the taking of any action contemplated hereby or thereby. If Purchaser at the
Closing Date has not been issued any necessary licenses from applicable state or
local government entities required to operate the Assets as senior living
facilities in the manner currently operated, Purchaser may terminate this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a required license is not obtained
on not more than one of the Real Properties (such Real Property, the "Excluded
Asset"), Purchaser and Seller agree to have a closing on those Real Properties
which have received the necessary licenses and satisfied all other closing
requirements and the Purchase Price shall be reduced in an amount equal to the
allocated Purchase Price of the Excluded Asset. Closing on the Excluded Asset,
shall occur within ten (10) business days after receipt of the necessary
licenses for such Asset and the satisfaction of all conditions to Closing
applicable to such Excluded Asset.
C. Until Closing, Seller may modify or update any representation or
warranty in this Agreement which reflects any matters arising subsequent to the
date hereof by giving written notice to Purchaser of such modification or update
("Seller's Update Notice"). The representations and warranties contained in
Article 14 as so modified or updated shall be continuing and shall be true and
correct on and as of the Closing Date with the same force and effect as if made
at the Closing. If Purchaser receives notice or knowledge (pursuant to Seller's
Update Notice or otherwise) after the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date
of any matter which would make any of the representations and warranties set
forth in Article 14 untrue or inaccurate in any respect materially adverse to
Purchaser, Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller of such matter ("Purchaser's
Update Notice"), except if such matter was set forth in Seller's Update Notice.
Seller shall have until the date that is the later of the originally scheduled
Closing Date or thirty (30) days from the date of delivery of Seller's Update
Notice or the receipt of Purchaser's Update Notice to cure such untruth or
inaccuracy. The Closing Date automatically shall be extended to such thirtieth
(30th) day after delivery of Seller's Update Notice to Seller or receipt of
Purchaser's Update Notice by Seller to permit such cure by Seller, provided that
such date shall not be later than the expiration of any Financing Commitment and
provided further that Seller shall have no such cure or extension right if the
applicable matter is not reasonably capable of being cured during such period.
If such untruth or inaccuracy is not cured by the Closing Date (as same may be
extended in accordance with this Agreement), then Purchaser, as its sole and
exclusive remedy (provided Seller has complied with its obligations in the prior
sentence) but without limiting Purchaser's remedies set forth in Article 20 B.
shall have the right to either: (a) terminate this Agreement by written notice
to Seller, in which case Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit (together with
all interest thereon, if any) to Purchaser and neither party to this Agreement
shall thereafter have any further rights or obligations hereunder; or (b)
consummate all actions contemplated to be completed at the Closing and receive a
credit in the lesser of: (I) the amount of actual damages sustained by Purchaser
due to any and all such materially adverse untruths and inaccuracies; and (II)
the difference between Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) and all
documented, out-of-pocket costs, in the aggregate,
24
previously incurred by Seller to cure any and all such materially adverse
untruths and inaccuracies. Purchaser's failure to notify Seller that any of
Seller's representations or warranties are materially untrue or incorrect or
that Seller has not materially complied with any of its agreements on or before
the Closing Date shall be deemed a waiver by Purchaser thereof, if Purchaser had
actual knowledge of such inaccuracy or breach as of the Closing Date. For the
purposes of this Article 17(B) "material" shall mean any state of facts the
restoration of which to the condition represented or warranted by Seller under
this Agreement would cost in excess of $50,000 or could decrease the value of
the Assets by Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) or more.
ARTICLE 18.
Closing Costs.
A. Closing Costs. Seller shall pay all charges required under
applicable law or customarily attributable to sellers of assets similar to
Assets including without limitation, state, county, or municipal transfer taxes
which are not required to be paid by Purchaser under applicable law or custom.
Purchaser shall pay all charges required under applicable law or customarily
attributable to purchasers including, without limitation, all recordation
charges for the Deeds, and state, county or municipal transfer taxes and fees
which are not required to be paid by Seller under applicable law or custom.
Seller and Purchaser shall equally share the cost of the premiums for the title
insurance with Seller's portion not to exceed $75,000. The parties shall each be
solely responsible for the fees and disbursements of their respective counsel
and other professional advisers.
B. The provisions of this Article 18 shall survive the Closing.
ARTICLE 19.
A. Conditions Precedent To Seller's Obligations. The obligation
of Seller to consummate the Closing is subject to the satisfaction (or waiver
by Seller) as of Closing of the following conditions:
(i) Each of the representations and warranties made by
Purchaser in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material
respects when made and on and as of the Closing Date as though such
representations and warranties were made on and as of the Closing Date.
(ii) Seller shall have received all of the deliveries required
under Article 8(B).
B. Conditions Precedent to Purchaser's Obligations. The obligation
of Purchaser to consummate the Closing is subject to the satisfaction (or waiver
by Purchaser) as of Closing of the following conditions:
25
(i) Each of the representations and warranties made by Seller
in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects
(without regard to any knowledge or similar qualifiers) when made and on
and as of the Closing Date as though such representations and warranties
were made on and as of the Closing Date.
(ii) Seller shall have performed or complied with each
obligation and covenant required by this Agreement to be performed or
complied with by Seller on or before Closing.
(iii) If the sale of the Assets or any portion thereof to
Purchaser requires the approval of any Government Authority, such approval
shall have been obtained.
(iv) Purchaser shall have received all of the documents
required to be delivered by Seller under Article 8 (A).
ARTICLE 20.
A. Seller's Inability to Perform; Seller's Default. If Seller shall
default in its obligation to convey the Assets to Purchaser in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement, then Purchaser, at its sole option, may either (i)
terminate this Agreement, in which event Escrow Agent shall refund to Purchaser
the Deposit (and all interest thereon, if any) and neither party shall
thereafter have any further rights or obligations hereunder or (ii) bring an
action against Seller for specific performance. In the event of Seller's Willful
Default (as defined below), Purchaser shall be entitled to all remedies at law
or at equity. In addition to all rights and remedies of Purchaser contained
herein, in the event Seller shall default in its obligation to convey the Assets
to Purchaser in accordance with the terms of this Agreement including without
limitation as set forth in Article 20 B. below, then Purchaser shall be entitled
(i) to receive the promissory note in the amount of $400,000 made by ILM II (the
"Escrowed Note") and held by TSNY Agency of New York City, Inc., as agent for
Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, pursuant to the letter agreement
dated September 24, 2001 between Blackstone Real Estate Acquisitions III L.L.C.
and ILM II and Purchaser and (ii) to make demand upon the Escrowed Note and
receive payment of the $400,000 due under the Escrowed Note. "Seller's Willful
Default" shall mean Seller's willful refusal to perform its obligation to convey
the Assets to Purchaser in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
provided: (1) the reasons for such refusal do not include conditions beyond
Seller's control or the unmarketability of title; and (2) Purchaser has
satisfied all conditions required to be satisfied by it under this Agreement, is
not otherwise in default under this Agreement and is ready, willing and able to
deliver the Purchase Price due Seller under this Agreement.
B. Breach of Certain Representations and Warranties; Shareholder Event.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement (i) In the event that any
shareholder of ILM II or Seller or any other party (other than Purchaser) seeks
to void or otherwise invalidate this Agreement or to enjoin the transactions
contemplated hereby for any reason whatsoever (any such event, a "Shareholder
Action") then Purchaser shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement and
receive the return of the Deposit (and all interest thereon, if any), and ILM II
and Seller (on a
26
joint and several basis) shall pay to Purchaser the amount of $2,000,000 (the
"Shareholder Event Payment") as liquidated damages and not as a penalty.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, ILM II and Seller shall not be required to pay
the Shareholder Event Payment if on the Closing Date (a) no court order
enjoining or otherwise impeding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
is in effect and (b) no action is pending (i) which, if adversely determined,
could result in the unwinding of the sale of the Assets or subject Purchaser to
damages or other liabilities or (ii) which challenges the validity of this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. If a Shareholder Action is
pending on the then scheduled Closing Date and the then scheduled Closing Date
is prior to March 1, 2002, the Inspection Period and the Closing Date shall
automatically be extended through and including March 1, 2002.
(ii) The Shareholder Event Payment shall be paid to Purchaser in
immediately available funds by wire transfer on the earlier to occur of (a)
March 1, 2002 and (b) the date of an order by a court of competent
jurisdiction ordering that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
shall not be completed in accordance with this Agreement. Upon a
termination of this Agreement as provided above, neither party to this
Agreement shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except,
Escrow Agent shall deliver to Purchaser and Purchaser shall retain the
Deposit and the Escrowed Note and ILM II and Seller shall deliver to
Purchaser the Shareholder Event Payment as set forth herein. It is
expressly understood and agreed that in the event of such Shareholder
Action or the failure of the Authority Opinion to be delivered if required
as provided below, damages would be impossible to ascertain and that the
Shareholder Event Payment constitutes a fair and reasonable amount of
compensation in such events and in no event shall the delivery of the
Shareholder Event Payment be construed as punitive damages.
(iii) In addition to the circumstances described above, if the
Authority Opinion is required to be delivered in accordance with Article 8
(a) (vii) and such Authority Opinion is not delivered, ILM and Seller (on a
joint and several basis) shall pay the Shareholder Event Payment to
Purchaser on the then scheduled Closing Date. If after the Closing, any
shareholder of ILM II or any other party (other than Purchaser)
successfully voids or unwinds the transactions contemplated hereby for any
reason whatsoever, ILM II and Seller (on a joint and several basis) shall
immediately pay the Shareholder Event Payment to Purchaser, which payment
shall not be in limitation of any other rights and remedies that Purchaser
may then have.
(iv) Upon the occurrence of a Shareholder Action or any action
seeking to unwind the sale of the Assets, Seller and ILM II agree to
diligently prosecute the defense of such action and to keep Purchaser
informed of the progress of such action, including providing Purchaser with
copies of all pleadings and decisions filed in the action. Neither Seller
nor ILM II shall enter into any settlement of any such action which
prevents the transactions contemplated by this Agreement from occurring in
accordance with this Agreement or which would unwind the transaction
without the prior written approval of Purchaser, which approval may be
withheld in Purchaser's sole discretion. If Seller or ILM II breach the
covenant set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Shareholder
Event Payment shall be immediately due and payable to Purchaser by ILM II
and Seller (on a joint and several basis) and Purchaser shall have all
other remedies available to Purchaser at law or at equity.
27
ARTICLE 21.
Condition of Real Property. Purchaser shall accept the Real Property at
the Closing in its "as is" condition as of the Closing Date, subject to the
terms of this Agreement including without limitation the representations and
warranties of Seller. Except as set forth in this Agreement and subject to the
representations and warranties of Seller, Seller shall not be liable for any
latent or patent defects in the Real Property or be bound in any manner
whatsoever by any guarantees, promises, projections, operating expenses, set-ups
or other information pertaining to the Real Property made, furnished or claimed
to have been made or furnished, whether orally or in writing, by Seller or any
other person or entity, or any partner, employee, agent, attorney or other
person representing or purporting to represent Seller. Purchaser acknowledges
that neither Seller nor any of the employees, agents or attorneys of Seller have
made and do not make any oral or written representations or warranties
whatsoever to Purchaser, whether express or implied, except as expressly set
forth in this Agreement. Purchaser has not relied and is not relying upon any
representations or warranties other than the representations and warranties
expressly set forth in this Agreement, or upon any statements made in any
informational materials with respect to the Real Property provided by Seller or
any other person or entity, or any shareholder, employee, agent, attorney or
other person representing or purporting to represent Seller.
ARTICLE 22.
Non-Liability. Purchaser agrees that in any suit against ILM II or Seller,
it shall look solely to the assets of ILM II and Seller, and not to the members,
managers, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners or agents of
ILM II and Seller or any other person, partnership, corporation or trust, as
principal of ILM II and Seller or otherwise, and whether disclosed or
undisclosed, to enforce its rights hereunder, and that none of the members,
managers, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners or agents of
ILM II and Seller or any other person, partnership, corporation or trust, as
principals of ILM II and Seller or otherwise, and whether disclosed or
undisclosed, shall have any personal obligation or liability hereunder, and
Purchaser shall not seek to assert any claim or enforce any of its rights
hereunder against such party.
28

virtue of this Agreement (in each case, a "Notice") must be in writing and sent

any written agreements with any broker, salesman, finder or consultant or has

disbursements) and charges arising out of or in any way relating to the
foregoing representation being untrue.

30
term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the
fullest extent permitted by law.
ARTICLE 30.
Article Headings; Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The headings of
the various articles and sections of this Agreement have been inserted only for
convenience, and are not part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed in any
manner to modify, explain or restrict any of the provisions of this Agreement.

Disclosure"), or cause, permit or suffer any other disclosure which sets forth
