Assisted Living Concepts, Inc. a Nevada corporation with its principal place of business at 000
Xxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, XX 00000, (the “Company”) and Xxxx Xxxxxxx, Corporate Secretary, General
Counsel, and Senior Vice President (the “Employee”).
WITNESSETH
The Company desires to employ the Employee as an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries,
and the Employee desires to provide services to the Company or its subsidiaries, all upon the terms
and conditions hereinafter set forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual agreements hereinafter set forth,
and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Offer and Acceptance of Employment. The Company hereby agrees to employ the Employee as
the Corporate Secretary, General Counsel, and Senior Vice President of the Company. The Employee
accepts such employment and agrees to perform the customary responsibilities of such position with
the Company and/or certain of its subsidiaries as may be assigned to him from time to time by the
Company. The Employee will perform such other duties as may from time to time be reasonably
assigned to him by the Company, provided such duties are comparable with the type of duties
performed by persons of similar titles with the Company, its subsidiaries or other affiliates.
2. Compensation and Benefits.
(a) Base Salary. As long as Employee remains an employee of Company, Employee will be
paid a base salary, less applicable withholding, which shall continue at the rate currently in
effect, subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. Employee’s base salary shall be reviewed on
an annual basis and the Company shall increase such base salary, by an amount, if any, it
determines to be appropriate. Any such increase shall not reduce or limit any other obligation of
the Company hereunder. Employee’s annual base salary payable hereunder, as it may be increased from
time to time, less applicable withholding, and without reduction for any amounts deferred as
described below, is referred to herein as “Base Salary”. Employee’s Base Salary, as in effect from
time to time, may not be reduced by the Company without Employee’s consent, provided that the Base
Salary payable under this paragraph shall be reduced to the extent Employee elects to defer or
reduce such salary under the terms of any deferred compensation plan or other employee benefit
arrangement maintained or established by the Company. The Company shall pay Employee the portion of
his Base Salary not deferred in accordance with its customary periodic payroll practices.
(b) Incentive Compensation. Subject to Board approval and based on the recommendation
of the Human Resources Committee, the Employee may be eligible to
participate in stock option, incentive compensation and other plans, which reward performance,
at a level consistent with Employee’s then assigned position(s) with the Company or certain of its
subsidiaries and other affiliates and the Company’s then current policies and practices.
(c) Benefits, Perquisites and Expenses.
(i) Benefits. Employee shall be eligible to participate in (1) each welfare benefit
plan sponsored or maintained by the Company, including, without limitation, each life, optional
life, hospitalization, medical, dental, vision, health, accident or disability insurance,
individual disability/long term care plan, or similar plan or program of the Company, and (2) each
deferred compensation (including Executive Retirement) or savings plan sponsored or maintained by
the Company, in each case, whether now existing or established hereafter, to the extent that
Employee is eligible to participate in any such plan under company policies and practices and
consistent with the generally applicable provisions thereof. With respect to benefits payable to
Employee, Employee’s service credited for purposes of determining Employee’s benefits and vesting
shall be determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan or program. Nothing in this
Section 2(c), in and of itself, shall be construed to limit the ability of the Company to amend or
terminate any particular plan, program or arrangement.
(ii) Vacation. The Employee shall be entitled to the number of paid vacation days in
each anniversary year determined by the Company from time to time for similar positions. The
Employee shall also be entitled to all paid holidays given by the Company to employees with similar
positions.
(iii) Business Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse Employee for all
reasonable expenses incurred or paid by Employee in the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder,
upon presentation of expense statements or vouchers and such other information as the Company may
reasonably require and in accordance with the then generally applicable policies and practices of
the Company.
(iv) Auto. The Company shall provide you with a monthly automobile allowance in the
amount of $650. Additionally, the Employee will be reimbursed for miles driven on company business
at the applicable reimbursement rate that is set from time to time by the Company.
3. Employment Termination. The Employee’s employment under this Agreement may be
terminated as follows:
(a) Good Cause. For purposes hereof, a termination by the Company for “Good Cause”
shall mean termination by action of the Company upon written notice to Employee specifying the
particulars of the action or inaction alleged to constitute “Good Cause” because of (i) Employee’s
commission of any felony (whether or not involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries),
including, without limitation, those involving moral turpitude which subjects, or if generally
known, would subject, the Company or any of its subsidiaries to public ridicule or embarrassment,
(ii) fraud or other willful
- 2 -
misconduct by Employee in respect of his obligations under this Agreement, (iii) refusal or
continuing failure to attempt, without proper cause and, other than by reason of illness, to follow
the lawful directions of the senior officers or the Board of Directors of the Company, (iv)
willful violation of any material policy of the Company or material agreement with the Company, or
(v) other conduct that may be detrimental to the best interests of the Company or any affiliate
thereof as determined by the Board.
(b) Without Cause. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Company may at any time terminate the Employee’s employment hereunder without Cause.
(c) Death. If Employee dies, his employment shall terminate as of the date of death.

of Termination is given);
(iii) in the case of an event described in paragraph (d) of this Section 3 the last day of the
month following 30 days after which such event occurs; or

shall be the date which is two weeks after the date the Employee provides notice to the Company of
voluntary termination.
- 3 -
4. Payments upon Termination.
(a) Termination Due to Death or Voluntary Termination. Upon termination of the
Employee under Section 3(c) or in the event of Employee’s voluntary termination the Company shall
no later than the first day of the third month following the month in which the Date of Termination
occurs pay to the Employee or his estate (1) his full Base Salary and other accrued benefits earned
up to the Date of Termination and (2) if any bonus, under any bonus plan, shall be payable in
respect of the year in which the Employee’s Date of Termination occurs. Employee shall also be
entitled to all vested deferred compensation (including Executive Retirement) of any kind at such
times and in such amounts provided under the terms of applicable deferred compensation
arrangements. The Company shall have no further obligations to the Employee under this Agreement.
(b) Termination for Cause. If the Employee’s employment shall be terminated under
Section 3(a), the Company shall no later than thirty (30) days following the month in which the
Date of Termination occurs pay the Employee his full Base Salary through the Date of Termination at
the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given. Employee shall also be entitled to
all vested deferred compensation (including Executive Retirement) of any kind at such times and in
such amounts provided under the terms of applicable deferred compensation arrangements. The Company
shall have no further obligations to the Employee under this Agreement.
(c) Termination for Disability. In the case of disability, the Employee would be
eligible for short-term and long-term disability plans provided by the Company. If a disability

(d) Termination by the Company for Reasons other than Voluntary Termination, Death, Cause,
or Disability.
In the event the Company terminates the Employee pursuant to paragraph (b) or (d) of Section
3, then:
(i) the Company shall make a lump sum payment (less applicable deductions to include

(A) Payment of any Base Salary owed to the Date of Termination which has not yet been paid.

of the event described in Section 3(b) or (d) (whichever is applicable) plus $30,000.
(C) A payment in lieu of bonus in an amount equivalent to 35% of Base Salary (as described in
clause (B) above) and, also, for the year in which termination occurs, a bonus shall be paid to the
Employee on a pro-rata basis for the
- 4 -
portion of the year in which the Employee was employed, up to the Date of Termination, on the
assumption that 100% of the bonus payment would have been achieved.
(D) The cash equivalent of 12 months of auto allowance.

period of time beginning immediately after the Date of Termination to any of the deferred

Retirement) of any kind at such times and in such amounts provided under the terms of applicable
deferred compensation plans.
(iii) For the 12 month period beginning with the Date of Termination, the Employee shall be
treated as if the Employee had continued to be employed for all purposes under insured welfare
benefit plans (other than plans providing medical benefits) sponsored or maintained by the Company
on the same participation terms as if still employed. Beginning with the Date of Termination, the
Employee shall be entitled to receive medical plan continuation coverage required under ERISA
(“COBRA Benefits”) subject to payment of full COBRA premiums by Employee.
(iv) In order to receive the payments described in (c)(i) above, the Employee must (no later
than thirty (30) days following the month in which the Date of Termination occurs) execute (and not
revoke during the seven day revocation period), a release in form substantially similar to that
attached as Exhibit A hereto.
5. Section 280G Limitation on Compensation. In the event that the severance benefits
payable to the Employee under this Agreement or any other payments or benefits received or to be
received by the Employee from the Company (whether payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement,
any other plan, agreement or arrangement with the Company) or any corporation (“Affiliate”)
affiliated with the Company within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the “Code”), in the opinion of tax counsel selected by the Company’s independent
auditors and reasonably acceptable to the Employee, constitute “parachute payments” within the
meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, and the present value of such “parachute payments”
equals or exceeds three times the Employee’s “base amount” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3)
of the Code, such severance benefits shall be reduced to an amount the present value of which (when
combined with the present value of any other payments or benefits otherwise received or to be
received by the Employee from the Company (or an Affiliate) that are deemed “parachute payments”)
is equal to 2.99 times the “base amount,” notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in
this Agreement.
6. Employee’s Covenants.
(a) Nondisclosure. At all times during and after Employee’s employment with the
Company, Employee shall keep confidential and shall not, except with
- 5 -
Company’s express prior written consent, or except in the proper course of his employment with
Company, directly or indirectly, communicate, disclose, divulge, publish, or otherwise express, to
any Person, or use for his own benefit or the benefit of any Person, any trade secrets,
confidential or proprietary knowledge or information, no matter when or how acquired concerning the
conduct and details of Company’s business, including without limitation, names of customers and
suppliers, marketing methods, trade secrets, policies, prospects and financial condition. For
purposes of this Section 6, confidential information shall not include any information which is now
known by or readily available to the general public or which becomes known by or readily available
to the general public other than as a result of any improper act or omission of Employee.
(b) Non-Competition. For a period of one (1) year following termination of Employee’s
employment with the Company for any reason, Employee shall not, except with Company’s express prior
written consent, directly or indirectly, in any capacity, for the benefit of any Person:
(i) solicit or hire any Person who is or during such period becomes a customer, supplier,
employee, salesman, agent or representative of Company, in any manner which interferes or might
interfere with such Person’s relationship with Company, or in an effort to obtain such Person as a
customer, supplier, employee, salesman, agent, or representative of any business in competition
with Company which conducts operations within 50 miles of the Employee’s present office; or
(ii) establish, engage, own, manage, operate, join or control, or participate in the
establishment, ownership (other than as the owner of less than one percent of the stock of a
corporation whose shares are publicly traded), management, operation or control of, or be a
director, officer, employee, salesman, agent or representative of, or be a consultant to, any
Person in any business in competition with Company, if such Person has any office or facility at
any location within 50 miles of any location of the Company over which the Employee has direct
responsibility or within 100 miles of the Employee’s current office, or conduct himself in any
manner which he would have reason to believe inimical or contrary to the best interests of Company.
(c) Enforcement. Employee acknowledges that any breach by him of any of the covenants
and agreements of this Section 6 (“Covenants”) will result in irreparable injury to Company for
which money damages could not adequately compensate Company, and therefore, in the event of any
such breach, Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies which Company
may have at law or in equity, to have an injunction issued by any competent court enjoining and
restraining Employee and/or all other Persons involved therein from continuing such breach. The
existence of any claim or cause of action which Employee or any such other Person may have against
Company shall not constitute a defense or bar to the enforcement of any of the Covenants. If
Company is obliged to resort to litigation to enforce any of the Covenants which has a fixed term,
then such term shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period during which a material
breach of such Covenant was occurring, beginning on the date of a final court order (without
further right of appeal) holding that such a material breach occurred, or, if later, the last day
of the original fixed term of such Covenant.
- 6 -
(d) Consideration. Employee expressly acknowledges that the Covenants are a material
part of the consideration bargained for by Company and, without the agreement of Employee to be
bound by the Covenants, Company would not have agreed to enter into this Agreement.
(e) Scope. If any portion of any Covenant or its application is construed to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the other portions and their application shall not be
affected thereby and shall be enforceable without regard thereto. If any of the Covenants is
determined to be unenforceable because of its scope, duration, geographical area or similar factor,
then the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce or limit such scope,
duration, area or other factor, and such Covenant shall then be enforceable in its reduced or
limited form.
7. No Obligation to Mitigate Damages; No Effect on Other Contractual Rights.
(a) The Employee shall not be required to mitigate damages or the amount of any payment
provided for under this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of
payment provided for under this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by the Employee as
the result of employment by another employer after the Date of Termination, or otherwise. The
amounts payable to Employee under Section 4 hereof shall not be treated as damages but as severance
compensation to which Employee is entitled by reason of termination of his employment in the
circumstances contemplated by this Agreement.
(b) The provisions of this Agreement, and any payment provided for hereunder, shall not reduce
any amounts otherwise payable, or in any way diminish the Employee’s existing rights, or rights
which would accrue solely as a result of the passage of time, under any benefit plan, employment
agreement or other contract, plan or arrangement.
8. Miscellaneous.
(a) Notices. All notices, requests, demands, consents or other communications
required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been duly given if and when (i) delivered personally, (ii) five (5) days after being mailed by
first class certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (iii) sent by a

is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, that

Social Security Number |
To indicate your election to receive the severance pay described in the Assisted Living
Concepts, Inc.’s employee agreement to you of (DATE), (the “Severance Pay”), please sign and date
this Agreement on the next page and make sure that it is returned to Assisted Living Concepts, Inc.
I elect to receive the Severance Pay and provide the following Complete and Permanent Release:
In consideration for the Severance Pay which I specifically acknowledge to be
sufficient consideration to support this Release, I agree to release and forever
discharge Assisted Living Concepts, Inc., (as well as its subsidiaries,
affiliates, successors and assigns, and its present and former agents, directors,
employees, officers and representatives, or any of them, hereinafter collectively
referred to as “ALC”) of and from any and all claims that I might have arising out
of my employment by ALC and the termination thereof, by reason of any act or
omission on the part of ALC arising at any time up to and including the date I
sign this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I agree never to
bring or cause to be brought or permit to be brought on my behalf any charges or
actions against ALC with respect to the claims released herein (and I agree to
immediately withdraw and dismiss with prejudice any such pending charges, claims,
suits, demands, grievances and actions). The claims that I am releasing include,
but are not limited to, claims for wrongful or other discharge, breach of
contract, harassment, unlawful terms and conditions of employment, retaliation,
defamation, invasion of privacy, and discrimination of any kind, including
discrimination on the basis of age under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act
and state and local law. I further agree that I will not make any statements that
defame or disparage the reputation of ALC, the care provided at its facilities, or
the reputation of any employees of ALC.
I have not relied on any representations, promises or agreements of any kind made to me in
connection with my decision to accept the Severance Pay except for those set forth in ALC’s (DATE),
letter/employment agreement.
If I bring or cause to be brought or continued or permit to be brought or continued on my
behalf a charge or claim against ALC in violation of this Release or asking that (or seeking relief
which would require that) all or any part of this Release be held unenforceable, invalid or void, I
agree that prior to the commencement or continuation of such action I will tender back to ALC the
Severance Pay which I have received as consideration. I acknowledge and understand that any
obligation on ALC’s part to pay any unpaid Severance Pay to me in return for this Release will
permanently cease as of the date such action is instituted or continued.
- 11 -
If any part of this Release is held to be unenforceable, invalid or void, then the balance of
this Release shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect.
I ACKNOWLEDGE I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS RELEASE; THAT MY SIGNATURE ON THIS RELEASE IS
TRULY VOLUNTARY; AND THAT I HAVE ENTERED INTO THIS RELEASE AGREEMENT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY.
I understand that my election of the Severance Pay and my acceptance of the terms of this
Release may be revoked if, within seven (7) calendar days following the date I sign this Agreement,
I give written notice of revocation to Assisted Living Concepts, 000 Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000. This Release shall not become effective, binding, or enforceable until
the seven (7) calendar day revocation period has expired. Once that seven (7) calendar day period
has elapsed, I can no longer revoke this Release or my election of the Severance Pay. TIME IS OF
THE ESSENCE AS TO THIS SEVEN (7) DAY PERIOD.
