security interests, except as permitted by the Term Loan Agreement;
and, the security interests of Ocwen in the Collateral are perfected
lien security interests, prior to the rights of any other secured party
or lien creditor. Each member of the Obligated Group will defend its

Collateral or to preserve any rights relating to the Collateral. If the
members fail to effect and keep in full force and effect insurance

Group or its order.

(except such thereof as are being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings diligently conducted) as well as the cost of
repairs to or maintenance of the same. If the members of the Obligated
Group fail to do so, Ocwen may pay such taxes, levies or impositions
and the cost of such repairs or maintenance for the account of the
members of the Obligated Group and add the amount thereof to the
Secured Obligations.
(e) Care of Collateral by Ocwen. Ocwen shall be deemed to have
exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of such of
the Collateral as may be in Ocwen's possession if Ocwen takes such
action for that purpose as the respective member of the Obligated Group
owning such
-13-
Collateral shall request in writing, provided that such requested
action shall not, in the judgment of Ocwen, impair Ocwen's security
interest in such Collateral or its rights in, or the value of, such
Collateral, and provided further that such written request is received
by Ocwen in sufficient time to permit Ocwen to take the requested
action.

property interests that comprise part of the Collateral are located.
(i) Preservation of Corporate Form and Existence. Except as
otherwise provided in the Term Loan Agreement with respect to Balanced
Care only, the members of the Obligated Group will preserve their
corporate existence and not, in one transaction or a series of related
transactions, merge into or consolidate with any other entity, or sell
all or substantially all of their assets without the prior written
consent of Ocwen, except that stock of Senior Care Operators of
Shippensburg, LLC, which is currently owned by BCS, may be redeemed by
BCS effecting
-14-
a merger of Senior Care Operators of Shippensburg, LLC into BCS, with
BCS being the surviving entity.

members of the Obligated Group shall prove to have been false
or misleading in any material respect as of the time made or
furnished; or

in the due observation or performance of any of the covenants
or agreements of the members of the Obligated Group contained
in this Security Agreement, and such default shall not be

provided, however, that in the event that any such default
(other than a monetary default) cannot be cured in such
initial 30 day period despite the exercise of all due
diligence by the members of the Obligated Group, the members
of the Obligated Group shall be entitled to an additional 30
days to cure such default (not including monetary defaults)
provided that the members of the Obligated Group have
commenced and continue to diligently prosecute such cure at
all times; or
(iii) an Event of Default (as that term is defined in the
Term Loan Agreement) shall occur and be continuing beyond any
applicable cure period or shall exist; or
-15-
(iv) The members of the Obligated Group shall be in
default beyond any applicable cure period in the due
observation or performance of any of the covenants, agreements
or obligations of such member contained in the Term Note,
other Security Documents (as defined in the Term Loan
Agreement), or other Loan Documents.
(b) Rights upon Default. In any such Event of Default, Ocwen
shall have such rights and remedies in respect of the Collateral or any
part thereof as are provided by the Uniform Commercial Code and such
other rights and remedies in respect thereof which it may have at law
or in equity or under this Security Agreement, including without
limitation the right to enter any premises where any Collateral is
located and take possession of the same without demand or notice and
without prior judicial hearing or legal proceedings, which the members
of the Obligated Group hereby expressly waive, and to sell all or any
portion of the Collateral at public or private sale without prior
notice to the members of the Obligated Group except as otherwise
required by law (and if notice is required by law, after ten days'
prior written notice) at such place or places and at such time or times
and in such manner and upon such terms, whether for cash or on credit,
as Ocwen in its sole discretion may determine. Upon any such sale of
any of the Collateral, Ocwen may purchase, by crediting some or all of
the members of the Obligated Group's Secured Obligations or otherwise,
all or any of the Collateral being sold free from any equity or right
of redemption. Ocwen shall apply the proceeds of any such sale to the
obligations of the members of the Obligated Group as provided in
Section5 hereof. If such proceeds are insufficient to pay the amount of
funds the members of the Obligated Group owe to Ocwen for the Secured
Obligations, the members of the Obligated Group shall be liable for any
deficiency in the amount so realized from the Collateral.
(c) Assembly of Collateral. In any such Event of Default, each
of the members of the Obligated Group shall promptly upon demand by
Ocwen assemble its Collateral and make it available to Ocwen at a place
to be designated by Ocwen which shall be reasonably convenient to
Ocwen. The right of Ocwen under this Section to have the Collateral
assembled and made available to it is of the essence of this Security
Agreement and Ocwen may, at its election, enforce such right by an
action in equity for specific performance.
(d) Reserved.

(e) Warranties. Ocwen may sell the Collateral without giving
any warranties as to the Collateral. Ocwen may specifically disclaim
any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be
considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of the
sale of any Collateral.
(f) Compliance with Other Laws. Ocwen may comply with any
applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a
disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to
adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the
Collateral.

up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.
(h) No Waiver of Remedies. No delay or omission by Ocwen to
exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall
impair any right or remedy, waive any Event of Default or operate as an
acquiescence to the Event of Default, or affect any subsequent Event of
Default of the same or different nature.
(i) No Marshalling. Each of the members of the Obligated
Group, to the extent that it has any right, title or interest in any of
the Collateral, waives and releases any right to require Ocwen to
collect any of the Secured Obligations from any other of the Collateral
under any theory of marshalling of assets, or otherwise, and
specifically authorizes Ocwen to apply any of the Collateral against
any of the Secured Obligations in any manner that Ocwen may determine.
SECTION 8. Amendments, Waivers. The provisions of this Security
Agreement may from time to time be waived, modified or amended only as provided
in Section 8.4 of the Term Loan Agreement.
SECTION 9. Defeasance. Upon payment in full of the Term Note, and any
other sums or monies owed to Ocwen under and pursuant to the Term Loan Agreement
(other than payments due Ocwen pursuant to Section 1.6 of the Term Loan
Agreement), this Security Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force
and effect; and in such event, Ocwen will, at the expense of the members of the
Obligated Group, redeliver and reassign the Collateral to the members of the
Obligated Group and take all action necessary to terminate the security
interests of Ocwen in the Collateral. Until such time,

requires.
(c) Assignment. This Security Agreement shall bind and shall
inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Ocwen. Ocwen does
not consent to any assignment of this Security Agreement by the members
of the Obligated Group. Subject to Section 8.16 of the Term Loan
Agreement, Ocwen may assign its rights and interests under this
Security Agreement freely. If an assignment is made, the members of the
Obligated Group shall render performance under this Security Agreement
to and with the assignee. The members of the Obligated Group waive and
will not assert against any assignee any claims, defenses, or set-offs
that the members of the Obligated Group could assert against Ocwen
except defenses which cannot be waived.
