XXXXXX LYNBROOK CORP.
By: /s/ Xxxxx Xxxxxx
RIDER TO CONTRACT OF SALE BETWEEN: PENSUN ASSOCIATES, as Seller
and KAPSON LYNBROOK CORP., as Purchaser.
Dated: August 27, 1997
---------------------------------------------------------------
28. The acceptance of a deed by Purchaser shall constitute full
performance and discharge of every agreement and obligation
on the part of Seller to be performed pursuant to the
provisions of this contract, except those which are herein
specifically stated to survive the closing of title
hereunder. Purchaser's sole remedy in the event of any
breach of any representation or warranty contained herein
shall be to reject title and receive back the deposit made
hereunder.
29. Purchaser, or an affiliate of Purchaser is, at the present
time, the Manager of the facility operating on the premises
being conveyed hereby and, consequently, Seller has not made
any representations or warranties as to the physical
condition, use or operation, or any other matter or things
affecting or related to the aforesaid premises except as set
forth herein, and Purchaser hereby expressly acknowledges
that no representations or warranties have been made.
30. The Purchaser agrees to accept conveyance and transfer
thereof "as is," and the Seller shall not be obligated to
make any repairs, alterations, improvements or additions
thereto whatsoever, except as otherwise expressly provided
herein. It is understood and agreed that all understandings
and agreements heretofore had between the parties hereto are
merged in this contract, which along fully and completely
expresses their agreement, and that the same is entered into
after full investigation, neither party relying upon any
statement or representation not embodied in this contract
made by the other.
31. In the event that the Seller is unable to convey the
premises as herein provided for any reason whatsoever, then,
and in such event, the Seller's sole obligation shall be to
refund the Purchaser's down payment made hereunder and to
reimburse the Purchaser for the actual cost of title
examination and survey charges incurred, and thereupon all
rights and obligations hereunder, by either party against
the other shall cease and terminate, and this agreement
shall be null and void and the lien, if any, of the
Purchaser against the premises shall wholly cease. Except
as herein provided, the Seller shall not be required to
bring any action or proceeding or otherwise to incur any
expense to render the title to the premises marketable. The
Purchaser, without reduction of the purchase price or any
credit or allowance against the same and without any
liability on the part of the Seller, may nevertheless,
accept such title as the Seller may be able to convey. The
term "cost of title examination" is defined, for the purpose
of this agreement, as the expense actually incurred by the
Purchaser for title examination, but in no event, however,
to exceed the net amount which would be charged by a title
company in the State of New York for title examination of
the premises without issuance of a policy.
32. X. Xxxxxxxxx agrees to accept title subject to the
Permitted Exceptions set forth on Schedule B annexed hereto
and made a part hereof. In the event Purchaser's title
report shall show objections other than the Permitted
Exceptions, Purchaser shall notify Seller thereof and Seller
agrees to satisfy any judgments or other monetary liens
recorded against the premises and any other defect in title
which is the result of an affirmative act by Seller from and
after the date hereof.
B. If there are any objections to title which Seller
shall have been unable to remove at or prior to the
scheduled or any adjourned date of closing of title, and
which objections may, according to reasonable expectations,
be removed within sixty (60) days after such date, the
Seller shall be entitled to one or more adjournments of the
closing of title for the purpose of such removal for a
period not exceeding the aggregate of sixty (60) days.
However, any action taken by Seller to remove such defect,
lien and/or encumbrance shall not be deemed an admission on
Seller's part that such defect, lien, deed/or encumbrance is
one which would give Purchaser the right to cancel this
contract.
C. In addition to any other rights of Purchaser
herein, Purchaser shall be entitled, at its option, to waive
any objections to title and/or other contingencies herein
and accept title to the premises subject thereto upon notice
to Seller.
33. A. In view of the nature of the property to be
conveyed, and the present condition of the real estate
market, if this sale shall not be consummated by reason of
Purchaser's default, or if the Purchaser shall fail or
refuse to comply with and perform all of the terms,
provisions, conditions, agreements and obligations on his
part to be observed, kept and performed hereunder, the
entire damages which Seller will thereby sustain cannot be
exactly determined; therefore, it is agreed that in the
event of any default by the Purchaser, all amounts paid by
Purchaser as a deposit pursuant to this agreement shall be
considered as liquidated damages for such failure or refusal
of the Purchaser to consummate this transaction or for any
non-compliance, non-performance, breach or default by the
Purchaser, and shall become the exclusive property of, and
be permanently retained by Seller. Seller shall retain such
amounts as liquidated damages and no further rights or
causes of action shall remain against Purchaser, nor shall
Purchaser have any further rights under this agreement or
otherwise, with respect to Seller.
B. In the event that title pursuant to this Contract
does not close for any reason whatsoever, the Management
Agreement between Seller and Kapson Senior Quarters
Corporation (or its affiliate) shall remain in full force
and effect.
34. In the event Seller shall default in its obligations to
convey title hereunder and shall thereafter sell the
premises to a competitor of the Kapson Senior Quarters
Corporation, Seller will pay to Purchaser liquidated damages
in the amount of $500,000.00 and neither Kapson Lynbrook
Corp. nor any affiliate of Kapson Lynbrook Corp. or Kapson
Senior Quarters Corporation, or any subsidiary of theirs or
any affiliate of theirs, shall have any other claims against
Seller.
35. Seller and Purchaser represent to each other that they have
not dealt with any person or entity in connection with this
transaction. Each of the parties hereto does hereby
indemnify the other against the claim of any person or
entity with whom the indemnitor may have dealt for brokerage
commissions in connection with this transaction, including
the reasonable costs in connection with any claim or
defending of any suit for same.
The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the closing
of title hereunder.
36. All sums which are to be paid to the Seller under this
contract shall be paid to Seller by unendorsed certified or
cashier's checks drawn on a bank which is a member of the
New York Clearinghouse, or, at Seller's option, by wire
transfer into Seller's account (or other account at Seller's
direction) at closing. Upon two (2) days' oral notice from
Seller, Purchaser shall deliver separate checks at closing
or make separate wire transfers at closing in the number and
amounts requested by Seller payable as designated in said
notice.
37. Fuel on the premises on the date as of which adjustments
shall be made, shall be paid for by Purchaser at the time
of closing title, at the cost (including sales tax and labor
charges, if any) thereof to Seller. The amount of fuel on
the premises and the cost to Seller shall be evidenced by a
written statement from Seller's fuel company.
38. This agreement constitutes the entire contract between the
parties hereto and may not be modified except by an
instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. If any
provision of this Rider shall conflict with any printed
provision of this contract, the provision of the Rider shall
control.
39. It is expressly understood and agreed that delivery of this
agreement for inspection or otherwise by Seller to the
Purchaser shall not constitute an offer or create any rights
in favor of the Purchaser or others and shall in no way
obligate or be binding upon the Seller, and this agreement
shall have no force or effect unless and until the same is
fully executed and delivered by the Seller and the
Purchaser, and fully executed copies of this agreement are
exchanged by the parties hereto.
40. Purchaser will accept unacknowledged receipts, checks,
letters, statements or other proof as to the amount of any
liens on the property in the event that said liens are less
than the record amounts and similar proof will be acceptable
as to the payment of such liens, provided that Purchaser's
title company omits any exception as to such liens from
Purchaser's title policy.
41. Unpaid franchise taxes of any corporation in the chain of
title and any other taxes, such as transfer, inheritance and
estate taxes, and any violations filed in the office of any
federal, state or municipal department which Seller is
required to remove hereunder shall not be objections to
title provided the Seller deposits with Purchaser's title
company at closing in escrow a reasonable amount to secure
the payment of such unpaid taxes and/or the performance of
the work necessary to remove such violations within sixty
days after the date of closing of title. In the event the
aggregate cost of removal of any violations which Seller may
be required to remove hereunder shall exceed the sum of
$25,000.00, Seller shall have the following options, to be
exercised by notice to Purchaser: (a) removing such
violations in accordance with the provisions of this
Contract; or (b) refusing to remove such violations. In the
event that Xxxxxx refuses to remove such violations,
Purchaser shall have the following options, exercisable by
notice to Seller so as to be received by Seller within five
(5) days after notice from Seller of Seller's refusal to
remove such violations:
(i) taking title subject to such violations in which even
Purchaser shall receive an allowance of $25,000 in
reduction of the purchase price payable hereunder; or,
(ii) canceling this Contract, in which event, upon return of
the down payment made by Purchaser hereunder, together
with interest, if any, and the net cost of title
examination, the parties shall be released from any
further obligation hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, radio and television antenna violations and
violations which a tenant is required to comply with or
otherwise remove pursuant to the terms of its lease or
occupancy arrangement shall not be violations which
Seller is required to remove hereunder and Purchaser
will take title to the Premises subject to such
violations. In addition, a policy insuring that in the
case of encroachments not herein mentioned, the
building or the portions hereof which encroach may
remain undisturbed so long as the building stands; and
in the case of covenants, easements, agreements and
restrictions of record not hereinbefore excepted, that
they are not violated by the property or its use, shall
be deemed an acceptable policy under this contract with
respect to such terms.
42. Seller represents that all personal property used in
connection with the premises not owned by residents is owned
by Seller and is included in this sale and shall be deemed
conveyed by the deed to be delivered pursuant hereto and no
part of the purchase price is deemed to be assigned to any
such personal property.
43. Notwithstanding anything contained in this contract to the
contrary, all notices pursuant hereto shall be given in
writing and shall be either personally delivered with proper
receipt therefor, sent by prepaid registered or certified
mail, return receipt requested, or sent by one-day express
delivery service to the other party at the address in the

such party as follows:

sending such notice with the same force and effect as if

for notices by notice to the other party given in accordance
with this Contract.
44. This contract may not be assigned, except to an affiliate or
subsidiary of Kapson Senior Quarters Corporation, or to a
joint venture partner up to a 49% interest of the Kapson
Group, without the prior written consent of Seller in each
instance and any assignment or attempted or purported
assignment made without such consent shall be null and void
and of no force or effect.
45. X. Xxxxxx and Purchaser agree that CERTILMAN XXXXX
XXXXX & XXXXX, LLP (the "Escrow Agent") shall hold the
proceeds of the check for the down payment of the purchase
price hereunder in escrow in its special account. Upon
closing said proceeds shall be paid over to Seller. In case
in accordance with the provisions of this contract Purchaser
shall be entitled to the return of said sum, said proceeds
shall be paid over to Purchaser. In the event said proceeds
are placed in an interest-bearing account, the party
entitled to the principal amount of the down payment shall
be entitled to the interest earned thereon. If there shall
be any dispute between the parties as to the proper
disposition of the down payment, Escrow Agent shall not be
required to make any payment thereof except pursuant to a
final order or judgment of a court having jurisdiction of
the matter after the time to appeal shall have expired.
B. The parties acknowledge that Xxxxxx Agent is
acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for
their convenience, that Escrow Agent shall not be deemed to
be the agent of either of the parties, and that Escrow Agent
shall not be liable to either of the parties for any act or
omission on its part unless taken or suffered in bad faith,
in willful disregard of this contract or involving gross
negligence. Seller and Purchaser shall jointly and
severally indemnify and hold Escrow Agent harmless from and
against all costs, claims and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with the performance
of Xxxxxx Agent's duties hereunder, except with respect to
actions or omissions taken or suffered by Escrow Agent in
bad faith, in willful disregard of this contract or
involving gross negligence on the part of Escrow Agent.

and any dispute which may arise in connection herewith.

lending institution or their attorney, located within the
New York City metropolitan area.
47. This agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York. If any
provisions of this agreement shall be unenforceable or
invalid, the same shall not affect the remaining provisions
of this agreement and to this end the provisions of this
agreement are intended to be and shall be severable.
48. This agreement shall not be recorded by Xxxxxxxxx and any
recordation or attempted recordation by Purchaser hereof, or
of any assignment hereof or other instrument related hereto,
shall be void and shall constitute a default by Purchaser
hereunder.
49. No failure or delay of either party in the exercise of any
right given to such party hereunder or the waiver by any
party of any condition hereunder for its benefit (unless the
time specified herein for exercise of such right, or
satisfaction of such condition, has expired) shall
constitute a waiver of any other or further right nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right preclude other
or further exercise thereof or any other right. The waiver
of any breach hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver
of any other or any subsequent breach hereof.
50. A. At the closing of title, Purchaser shall cause
Purchaser's affiliate presently managing the premises to
deliver to Seller a final accounting up to and including the
date of closing, together with a certified check for any
amounts due Seller pursuant thereto.

of fuel oil on the premises and the cost thereof, including
all taxes.
51. At closing, Seller shall assign any Resident Agreements and
Service Contracts to Purchaser and Purchaser shall assume

certification to the effect that Seller is not a "foreign
person" as defined by the Internal Revenue Code and

Seller and as such, neither Purchaser or its respective
nominees, successors, assigns, employees, licensees, agents,
or any other person or entity controlled by it or with which
it is affiliated shall initiate, seek, pursue, or
participate in any action, legal or equitable, against
Seller, or its agents, and their respective heirs,
executors, administrators, successors or assigns on account
of any obligation of Seller hereunder, it being agreed that

errors or omissions, or to make the adjustments, after
closing and to make appropriate adjustments and payments in
connection therewith. This Paragraph shall survive the
closing of title.
56. This contract provides for Purchaser to take title subject
to an existing $10,500,000.00 mortgage held by Fleet Bank,
N.A. Purchaser and Seller will cooperate in obtaining the
consent of Fleet Bank, N.A. to this transfer.
In the event Fleet Bank shall not consent to the transfer,
Xxxxxxxxx agrees to take title "all cash" and pay the
additional $10,500,000.00 at closing.
Purchaser is aware that included in the obligations secured
by said mortgage is a $75,000.000 Letter of Credit given by
Seller to the Village of Lynbrook for the maintenance of
landscaping on the premises for a period of two (2) years.
Purchaser will obtain from Fleet Bank a replacement Letter
of Credit in the amount of $75,000.00 for delivery to the
Village of Lynbrook. Purchaser will also pay to Seller an
additional $75,000.00 (unadvanced under the mortgage), which
secures the said $75,000.00 Letter of Credit or arrange for
release of such funds by Fleet Bank to Seller.
In the event that Fleet Bank shall not consent to this sale
subject to the mortgage held by it, then at the time of the
closing of title, Xxxxxxxxx will obtain from its own source
said Letter of Credit and if Purchaser desires the Fleet
Bank mortgage to be assigned and if Fleet Bank fails to
