Re: Space Sharing Agreement
-----------------------
Dear Xxxx:
This letter agreement shall set forth the terms upon which the
undersigned ("PGI") agrees to provide to Brookdale Living Communities, Inc.
("Brookdale") the use of certain space and facilities located within PGI's
leased premises ("Premises") on the 39th floor of the building known as 00 Xxxx
Xxxxxx Xxxxx following the completion of the initial public offering of stock in
Brookdale (the "Offering").
The space and facilities which Brookdale will be permitted to use are
those portions of the Premises and facilities therein which are being used on
the date hereof by persons who are, or after the Offering will become, officers
or employees of Brookdale. If Brookdale uses more space and facilities than
contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, the rent payable by
Brookdale pursuant to this agreement shall be adjusted appropriately. Such use
shall conform with the nature and extent of the existing use of the space and
facilities which are the subject hereof.
The term of this agreement shall commence on the date of the Offering
and shall end on the last day of the fourth (4th) full calendar month
thereafter; provided, however, that Brookdale shall have the right to extend the
term of this agreement in increments of two (2) months or more for a total of up
to twelve (12) additional months so long as (i) Brookdale has given PGI written
notice of any such extension not later than the last day of the month preceding
the date on which the term (as previously extended, if applicable) would
otherwise expire and (ii) Brookdale is not in default of any obligation under
this agreement as of the date of any such notice or the commencement of the
applicable extension.

Brookdale shall pay as monthly rent for the space and facilities
described herein an amount equal to the sum of (i) Eight Thousand Eight Hundred
and no/100 Dollars ($8,800.00) plus (ii) a fair and equitable percentage of the
taxes and operating expenses for the Premises. Such rent shall be paid monthly,
in advance, on the first day of the term and on the first day of each calendar
month thereafter, except that if the first day of the term shall be a day other
than the first day of a calendar month, rent for such month shall be prorated
based on the number of days in such month.
In addition, Brookdale shall be responsible for the incremental cost
to PGI of any utilities and services used by Brookdale during the term of this
agreement, as reasonably determined by PGI, including, without limitation, the
cost of copying and facsimile equipment. All amounts owing to PGI under this
paragraph shall be paid by Brookdale within ten (10) days after receipt of an
invoice therefor.

lease dated March 14, 1992, as amended on April 15, 1992, with respect to the
Premises and agrees that Brookdale's use of the space and facilities described
herein shall be subject to the terms and provisions of such lease and that
Brookdale shall comply with all of the terms and provisions of such lease to the
extent such terms and provisions relate to or affect Brookdale's use of the

Sincerely,
