RECITALS
A. New Hillhaven and NME entered into that certain Guarantee Reimbursement
Agreement, dated as of January 31, 1990 (as amended by that certain First
Amendment to Guarantee Reimbursement Agreement, dated as of May 30, 1991, that
certain Second Amendment to Guarantee Reimbursement Agreement, dated as of
October 2, 1991, and that certain Third Amendment to Guarantee Reimbursement
Agreement, dated as of April 1, 1992 ("the Third Amendment"), and as the same
may be amended, restated, modified, supplemented, renewed or replaced from time
to time, the "Reimbursement Agreement"), which provides, among other things, for
the reimbursement by New Hillhaven of all Obligations (as defined in the
Reimbursement Agreement) paid by NME. Unless otherwise defined herein, all
capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meaning ascribed to such terms
in the Reimbursement Agreement.
B. Pursuant to that certain letter agreement, dated July 14, 1992, as modified
by that certain letter dated August 4, 1992 from Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx to Xxxxx
Xxxxx, and as further amended and modified by that certain letter agreement
dated October 14, 1992 (collectively the "Letter Agreement"), NME and those
subsidiaries of NME that are signatories to the Letter Agreement (the "NME
Parties") agreed to sell to First Healthcare Corporation ("FHC"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of New Hillhaven, and FHC and New Hillhaven agreed to purchase from
the NME Parties, certain nursing facilities and retirement centers
(collectively, referred to herein as the "Properties," and individually as a
"Property") that FHC leases from certain of the NME Parties.
C. Certain of the Properties are currently subject to (1) third party financing
(individually, an "Existing Debt") or (2) a master lease superior and prior to
the Lease (individually, a "Master Lease"). In conjunction with FHC's
acquisition of the Properties pursuant to the Letter Agreement referenced in
Recital B above, FHC shall assume certain Existing Debt and Master Leases
covering such Properties (respectively referred to herein as the "Assumed
Existing Debt" and the "Assumed Master Leases"). The Assumed Existing Debt and
the Assumed Master Leases applicable to such Properties being acquired by FHC
are described in Schedule A attached hereto.
D. NME is unwilling to permit FHC to assume any such Existing Debt or Master
Lease unless New Hillhaven agrees to guaranty the payment and performance of
such Assumed Existing Debt and Assumed Master Lease, to the extent that NME or
any subsidiary or affiliate of NME remains primarily or contingently liable for
such Assumed Existing Debt or Assumed Master Lease. In accordance with the
Letter Agreement, New Hillhaven agreed to guarantee such Assumed Existing Debt
and Assumed Master Leases as "Obligations" under and as defined in the
Reimbursement Agreement.
E. New Hillhaven and NME desire to amend the Reimbursement Agreement to add the
Assumed Existing Debt and the Assumed Master Leases, to the extent NME or any
subsidiary or affiliate of NME shall remain primarily or contingently liable
therefor, as Obligations under the Reimbursement Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree to
amend, modify and supplement the Reimbursement Agreement as follows:

Reimbursement Agreement, except as expressly provided in Paragraph 2 below,
shall apply to such Assumed Existing Debt and Assumed Master Leases.
2. No Guaranty Fee. The guaranty fee provisions of Section 2 of the
----------------
Reimbursement Agreement and the guaranty fee provisions contained in Paragraph 2
of the Third Amendment shall not apply to either (a) the Assumed Existing Debt
described in Schedule A attached hereto or (b) the Assumed Master Leases

Existing Debt and Assumed Master Leases described in Schedule A attached hereto
shall not be included as part of the outstanding Obligations under Section
2(c)(i) of the Reimbursement Agreement for the purposes of calculating the
guaranty fee referred to in Section 2 of the Reimbursement Agreement.

remain in full force and effect. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the parties specifically agree that, except with respect to the
Assumed Existing Debt and the Assumed Master Leases described in Schedule A
hereto, the terms and provisions of Paragraph 2 of the Third Amendment shall
remain fully applicable to all Assumed Existing Debt and Assumed Master Leases
