----------------------
1.7. PREPAYMENTS OF LOAN. Other than the principal payments required under
--------------------
Sections 1.1.3(g), 1.4.2 and 2.2, Borrower may not prepay the outstanding
------------------------------------
principal balance of the Loan in full or in part prior to December [6], 2004.
------
Thereafter, Borrower may prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Loan in
full (but not in part) any time; provided Borrower gives Lender at least thirty
--------
(30) days' prior written notice and pays the Exit Fee, if any, then due Lender.
1.8. EXIT FEE. As additional consideration for entering into this Agreement
--------
and making the Loan, Borrower shall, on the date payment in full of the Loan is
made, pay to Lender the amount (the "EXIT FEE") set forth below for the
respective period in which payment in full of the Loan occurs (whether at
maturity, prepayment, acceleration or otherwise).
PERIOD IN WHICH PRINCIPAL
BALANCEOF LOAN BEING REPAID OCCURS EXIT FEE
---------------------------------- --------
On or prior to December [5], 2004 The Loan may not be voluntarily prepaid
prior to December [6], 2004, other than principal payments required under
Section 1.4.2. In the event the Loan is repaid for any reason, including if it
is accelerated by Lender, prior to December [6], 2004, an Exit Fee will be due

Borrower from and after the date of repayment through December [6], 2004 at the
Interest Rate (as reasonably estimated by Lender), and (b) $650,000
December [6], 2004 and thereafter $650,000
1.9. CAPITAL ADEQUACY; INCREASED COSTS; ILLEGALITY.
-------------------------------------------------
(a) If Lender determines that any law, treaty, governmental (or
quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital
adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or compliance by Lender
with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements
or similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law), in each case,
adopted after the Closing Date, from any central bank or other governmental
authority increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of
capital, reserves or other funds required to be maintained by Lender and thereby
reducing the rate of return on the Loan made by Lender hereunder as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender
would have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance, then Borrowers
shall from time to time upon fifteen (15) days prior notice from Lender, pay to
Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate Lender for such reduction. A
certificate as to the amount of that reduction and showing the basis of the
computation thereof submitted by Lender to Borrowers shall, absent manifest
error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.
(b) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in any law or
regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) or (ii) the compliance
with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental
authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case adopted after
the Closing Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to Lender of
maintaining the Loan (other than an increase in cost solely as a result of
income or franchise taxes payable by Lender), then Borrowers shall from time to
time, upon demand by Lender, pay to Lender additional amounts sufficient to
compensate Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of
such increased cost, submitted to Borrowers by Lender, shall be conclusive and
binding on Borrowers for all purposes, absent manifest error. Lender agrees
that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances
referred to above which would result in any such increased cost, Lender shall,
to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender's internal policies of general
application, use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses
incurred by it and payable to it by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 1.9(b).
--------------
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the
introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the
interpretation thereof) shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other
governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for Lender to agree to
make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain any Loan bearing interest
computed by reference to LIBOR, then, unless Lender is able to make or to
continue to fund or to maintain the Loan at another branch or office of Lender
without, in Lender's opinion, adversely affecting it or its Loan or the income
obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand therefor by Lender to
Borrowers, (i) the obligation of Lender to agree to make or to make or to
continue to fund or maintain the Loan shall terminate and (ii) Borrowers shall
forthwith prepay in full the Loan, together with interest accrued thereon
without penalty or any Exit Fee.

MISCELLANEOUS
-------------
8.1. EXPENDITURES AND EXPENSES. Borrowers shall promptly pay all reasonable
-------------------------
Costs (defined below) incurred by Lender in connection with the
documentation, modification, workout, collection or enforcement of the Loan or
any of the Loan Documents (as applicable) and all such Costs shall be included
as additional Indebtedness bearing interest at the Default Rate set forth in the
Notes until paid. For the purposes hereof "COSTS" means all expenditures and
expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on behalf of Lender including
repair costs, payments to remove or protect against liens, attorneys' fees
(including fees of Lender's inside counsel), receivers' fees, engineers' fees,
accountants' fees, independent consultants' fees (including environmental
consultants), all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any of the
foregoing, Lender's out-of-pocket costs and expenses related to any audit or
inspection of the Projects, outlays for documentary and expert evidence,
stenographers' charges, stamp taxes, publication costs, and costs (which may be
estimates as to items to be expended after entry of an order or judgment) for
procuring all such abstracts of title, title and UCC searches, and examination,
title insurance policies, Torrens' Certificates (if applicable) and similar data
and assurances with respect to title as Lender may deem reasonably necessary
either to prosecute any action or to evidence to bidders at any foreclosure sale
of the Projects or any part thereof the true condition of the title to, or the
value of, the Projects or any part thereof.
8.2. DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. Lender shall have the right (but shall be
---------------------------
under no obligation) to make available to any party for the purpose of granting
participations in or selling, transferring, assigning or conveying all or any
part of the Loan (including any governmental agency or authority and any
prospective bidder at any foreclosure sale of any Project or any part thereof)
any and all information which Lender may have with respect to the Projects, any
Borrower, any Operator or Guarantor or any of their Affiliates, whether provided
by a Borrower, an Operator, Guarantor or any third party or obtained as a result
of any environmental assessments. Lender shall have no liability whatsoever as
a result of delivering any such information to any third party, and by executing
this Agreement and/or the Senior Housing Rider, each Borrower, each Operator and
Guarantor, on behalf of themselves and their successors and assigns, hereby
release and discharge Lender from any and all liability, claims, damages, or
causes of action, arising out of, connected with or incidental to the delivery
of any such information to any third party.
8.3. SALE OF LOAN. Lender, at any time and without the consent of any
--------------
Borrower, Operator or Guarantor, may grant participations in or sell, transfer,
assign and convey all or any portion of its right, title and interest in and to
the Loan, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any guaranties given in
connection with the Loan and any collateral given to secure the Loan.
8.4. FORBEARANCE BY LENDER NOT A WAIVER. Any forbearance by Lender in
---------------------------------------
exercising any right or remedy under any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise
afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of
any right or remedy. Lender's acceptance of payment of any sum secured by any
of the Loan Documents after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver
of Lender's right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so
secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment. The
procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by
Lender shall not be a waiver of Lender's right to accelerate the maturity of the
Loan, nor shall Lender's receipt of any awards, proceeds, or damages under
Section 4 of any Mortgage operate to cure or waive a Borrower's, an Operator's
-----
or Guarantor's default in payment of sums secured by any of the Loan Documents.
With respect to all Loan Documents, only waivers made in writing by Lender shall
be effective against Lender.
8.5. GOVERNING LAW; SEVERABILITY. The Loan Documents shall be governed by
-----------------------------
and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Illinois,
except that the provisions of the laws of the State where the applicable Project
is located shall be applicable to the creation, perfection and enforcement of
the lien created by the Mortgages and Assignments of Leases relating to such
Project. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision of
this Agreement shall not affect or impair the validity, legality or
enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement, and to this end, the
provisions of this Agreement are declared to be severable.
8.6. RELATIONSHIP. The relationship between Lender and Borrowers shall be
------------
that of creditor-debtor only. No term in this Agreement or in the other Loan
Documents and no course of dealing between the parties shall be deemed to create
any relationship of agency, partnership or joint venture or any fiduciary duty
by Lender to any other party.
8.7. INDEMNITY. Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify, protect,
---------
hold harmless and defend Lender, its successors, assigns, shareholders,
directors, officers, employees, and agents (each, an "INDEMNITEE") from and
against any and all loss, damage, cost, expense (including attorneys' fees), and
claims arising out of or in connection with (a) the Projects, (b) the
Collateral, (c) any act or omission of any Borrower, any Operator or Guarantor,
or their respective employees or agents, whether actual or alleged, and (d) any
and all brokers' commissions or other costs of similar type by any party in
connection with the Loan, in each case except to the extent arising from the
Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Upon written request by an
Indemnitee, Borrowers will undertake, at their own cost and expense, on behalf
of such Indemnitee, using counsel satisfactory to the Indemnitee, the defense of
any legal action or proceeding whether or not such Indemnitee shall be a party
and for which such Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this
section. At Lender's option, Lender may, at Borrowers' expense, prosecute or
defend any action involving the priority, validity or enforceability of any of
the Loan Documents.

LLC; EMERITUS REALTY PUYALLUP, LLC; EMERITUS REALTY BOZEMAN, LLC; and EMERITUS
REALTY XIV, LLC; each a Delaware limited liability company, and ESC-PORT ST.
RICHIE, LLC, a Washington limited liability company, (each a "BORROWER" and
collectively with certain affiliates of such parties which are now or hereafter
become parties to this Rider, "BORROWERS"), EMERITUS PROPERTIES III, INC.;
EMERITUS PROPERTIES II, INC.; and EMERITUS PROPERTIES V, INC., each a Washington

CORPORATION, a Washington corporation (as an "Operator" with respect to the
Projects located in California, and a "MANAGER" with respect to certain other
Projects) and GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation
(General Electric Capital Corporation and its successors and assigns are
hereinafter referred to as "LENDER"). To the extent of any conflict between the
terms and provisions of this Rider and the terms and provisions of the Loan
Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Rider shall govern and control the
rights and obligations of the parties; provided, however, in any event, the
obligations and covenants of Borrowers, Operators and Manager set forth herein
shall be subject to the notice and cure periods set forth in Section 7.1(c) of
the Loan Agreement.
R-1. All capitalized terms not defined in this Rider shall have the
meanings ascribed to such terms as set forth in the Loan Agreement.
R-2. The following representations, warranties and covenants are hereby
added to the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Loan
Agreement.
Each Borrower represents, covenants, and warrants, as of the date hereof and
through the term of Loan, as follows:
(a) Each Borrower, together with Manager, and the applicable Operator,
is using and operating its Property and Improvements (collectively, each a
"FACILITY" and collectively, the "FACILITIES") as assisted and/or independent
senior housing facilities, each Facility having the number of units set forth on
Exhibit A to the Loan Agreement (as modified from time to time with Lender's
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the "LICENSED USE").
As of the date hereof, in connection with the operation of each Facility,
Manager, each Borrower and each Operator complies, and throughout the term of
the Loan will comply, with all federal, state and local laws, regulations,
quality and safety standards, accreditation standards and requirements of the
applicable state department of health or other applicable state regulatory
agency (each a "DOH") and all other federal, state or local governmental
authorities including, to the extent applicable to the Facilities, those
relating to the quality and adequacy of medical care, distribution of
pharmaceuticals, rate setting, equipment, personnel, operating policies,
additions to facilities and services and fee splitting. Each Facility shall be
operated at all times in compliance with such laws and requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no Borrower Operator
or Manager shall be deemed to be in default under this clause (a) in the event
it is cited for minor deficiencies during the course of licensure or
certification surveys and the same are corrected within thirty (30) days, or so
long as Borrower, Operator or Manager, as applicable is diligently pursuing a
cure, such longer period as is required to correct such deficiency, and provided
further that Borrower, Operator or Manager delivers to Lender evidence that the
DOH has approved such cure in its ordinary course of review of the Facility.
(b) All governmental licenses, permits, regulatory agreements or other
approvals or agreements necessary or desirable for the Licensed Use of each
Facility are held by a Borrower, Operator or Manager in the name of the
Borrower, Operator or Manager as required under applicable law and are in full
force and effect, including, if required, a valid certificate of need ("CON") or
similar certificate, license, or approval issued by the DOH for the requisite
number of units in each Facility, and a provider agreement or other required
documentation of approved provider status for each provider payment or
reimbursement program listed in Exhibit R-1 hereto, if applicable. All required
permits, certificates, licenses and governmental approvals necessary for
operation of each Facility for the Licensed Use are listed on Exhibit R-1 hereto
(collectively, the "LICENSES"). So long as the Loan remains outstanding, each
Borrower (and each Operator and Manager) shall operate its Facility or cause its
Facility to be operated in a manner such that the Licenses shall remain in full
force and effect. True and complete copies of the Licenses have been delivered
to Lender.
(c) The Licenses for each Facility, including without limitation, if
applicable, the CON:
(i) May not be, and have not been, and will not be transferred to any
location other than that Facility;
(ii) Are not now and will not be pledged as collateral security for any
other loan or indebtedness; and
(iii) Are held free and will remain free from restrictions or known
conflicts which would materially impair the use or operation of the Facility for
the Licensed Use, and shall not be provisional, probationary or restricted in
any way which would have an adverse affect on the operation of the Facility for
the Licensed Use.
(d) No Borrower, Operator or Manager shall:
(i) Rescind, withdraw, revoke, amend, modify, supplement, or otherwise
alter the nature, tenor or scope of the Licenses for any Facility; provided,
however, nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Borrower, Operator or
Manager from modifying the Licenses in any manner which will permit Borrower,
Operator or Manager to provide additional services at the Facility which are not
currently offered but which are within the use of the Project at the time this
Rider was executed or other uses reasonably incidental thereto;
(ii) Amend or otherwise change any Facility's authorized units capacity
and/or the number of units approved by the DOH; except that, subject to Lender's
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, a Borrower
may change the allocation of units between assisted living and independent
living and except that, without Lender's consent but with notice to Lender,
Borrower may increase the number of approved beds/units at the Facility unless
doing so involves an expenditure which is otherwise subject to Lender's approval
under the provisions of the Loan Agreement or one or more of the other Loan
Documents, in which case such approval shall be governed by the terms of the
other provisions of the Loan Agreement or the applicable Loan Documents;
(iii) Replace or transfer all or any part of a Facility's units or beds to
another site or location; or
(iv) Voluntarily transfer or encourage the transfer of any resident of a
Facility to any other facility not subject to a Mortgage, unless such transfer
is at the request of the resident or is for reasons relating to the health,
required level of medical care or safety of the resident to be transferred or
for non-payment of stay or as required by applicable law.
(e) If and when a Borrower, Operator or Manager participates in any
Medicare or Medicaid or other third-party payor program with respect to a
Facility, that Facility will remain in compliance with all requirements for
participation in Medicare and Medicaid, including the Medicare and Medicaid
Patient Protection Act of 1987, and such other third party payor programs,
including any local third-party payor program ("LOCAL PROGRAM"); provided,
however, that no Borrower, Operator or Manager shall be deemed to be in default
of its obligations under this clause (e) in the event it is cited for minor
deficiencies during the course of licensure or certification surveys and the
same are corrected within thirty (30) days (or such longer period as required so
long as Borrower, Operator or Manager is diligently pursuing correction) in
accordance with a plan of correction acceptable to the entity or agency having
jurisdiction over the applicable Medicare, Medicaid or Local Program;
(f) Each Facility will remain in conformance in all material respects with
all insurance, reimbursement and cost reporting requirements, and, if
applicable, has a current provider agreement which is in full force and effect
under Medicare and Medicaid.
(g) There is no, and during the term of the Loan there shall be no
threatened, existing or pending revocation, suspension, termination, probation,
restriction, limitation, or nonrenewal affecting any Borrower, any Operator,
Manager (with respect to its operation of the Facilities) or any Facility or any
participation or provider agreement with any third-party payor, including
Medicare, Medicaid, Local Program, Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield, and any other
private commercial insurance managed care and employee assistance program (such
programs, the "THIRD-PARTY PAYORS' PROGRAMS") to which a Borrower, an Operator
or Manager may presently be subject with respect to a Facility, or at any time
hereafter is subject. All Medicaid, Medicare, Local Program, and private
insurance cost reports and financial reports submitted by a Borrower, an
Operator or Manager, if any, in connection with the ownership or operation of
the Facilities are and will be materially accurate and complete and have not
been and will not be misleading in any material respects. Except as otherwise
disclosed in writing to Lender by Borrower prior to the execution of this Rider,
no cost reports submitted prior to the date hereof for any Facility remain open
or unsettled.
(h) None of the Borrowers, Operators, Manager (with respect to its
operations at the Facilities) or any Facility is or will be the subject of any
proceeding by any governmental agency, and no notice of any violation has been
or will be issued by a governmental agency that would, directly or indirectly,
or with the passage of time:
(i) Have a material adverse impact on a Borrower's, an Operator's or
Manager's ability to accept and/or retain patients at any Facility or operate
any Facility for its Licensed Use or result in the imposition of a fine, a
sanction, a lower rate certification or a lower reimbursement rate for services
rendered to eligible patients at any Facility;
(ii) Modify, limit or annul or result in the transfer, suspension,
revocation or imposition of probationary use of any of the Licenses; or
(iii) If applicable, affect a Borrower's, an Operator's or Manager's
continued participation in the Medicaid or Medicare programs with respect to the
operation of any Facility, or the Local Program, or any other of the Third-Party
Payors' Programs in which any Facility now or at anytime hereafter participates,
or any successor programs thereto, at current rate certifications.
(i) Each Facility and the use thereof complies and will continue to
comply in all material respects with all applicable local, state and federal
building codes, fire codes, health care, senior housing and other regulatory
requirements (the "PHYSICAL PLANT STANDARDS") and no waivers of Physical Plant
Standards exist at any Facility, except those that are described on Exhibit R-2
attached hereto.
(j) Except as otherwise disclosed to Lender in writing prior to the
execution of this Rider, no Facility has received a "Level A" (or equivalent)
violation, and no statement of charges or deficiencies has been made or penalty
enforcement action has been undertaken against any Facility, Manager (in
connection with its operation of the Facilities), an Operator or a Borrower, or
against any officer, director, partner, member or stockholder of Manager (in
connection with its operation of the Facilities), an Operator or a Borrower by
any governmental agency during the last three calendar years, and there have
been no violations over the past three years which have threatened any
Facility's, any Manager's (in connection with its operation of the Facilities),
an Operator's or a Borrower's certification for participation in Medicare or
Medicaid or the other Third-Party Payors' Programs, if and to the extent any
Facility does now participate or has, at any time during such three year period,
participated therein.
(k) Except as otherwise disclosed to Lender in writing prior to the
execution of this Rider, there are no current, pending or outstanding Medicaid,
Medicare or Third-Party Payors' Programs reimbursement audits or appeals pending
at any Facility, and there are no years that are subject to audit for which an
audit has not yet been conducted.
(l) Except as otherwise disclosed to Lender in writing prior to the
execution of this Rider, there are no current or pending Medicaid or Medicare or
Third-Party Payors' Programs recoupment efforts at any Facility. No Borrower is
a participant in any federal program whereby any governmental agency may have
the right to recover funds by reason of the advance of federal funds, including
those authorized under the Xxxx-Xxxxxx Act (42 U.S.C. 291, et seq.).
(m) No Borrower or Operator will pledge its receivables as collateral
security for any other loan or indebtedness.
(n) There are no and there will remain no patient or resident care
agreements with patients or residents which deviate in any material adverse
respect from the form agreements which have been delivered to and approved by
Lender pursuant to Section 3.7 of the Loan Agreement.
(o) All patient or resident records at each Facility, including patient or
resident trust fund accounts, are true and correct in all material respects, and
will remain true and correct in all material respects.
(p) Any agreement relating to the management, and operation of any Facility
(each a "MANAGEMENT AND OPERATING AGREEMENT") and the manager thereunder shall
be subject to Lender's approval and no Management and Operating Agreement shall
be modified, amended or terminated except in accordance with the requirements of
the Loan Documents. Under the applicable laws and regulations in effect as of
the date hereof, in the event any Management and Operating Agreement is
terminated or in the event of foreclosure or other acquisition of a Facility by
Lender or its designee or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale, Borrower,
Operator, Lender, any subsequent manager or any subsequent purchaser need not
obtain a CON prior to applying for and receiving Medicare or Medicaid payments.
(q) No Borrower shall, nor shall any Facility, any Operator or Manager,
other than in the normal course of business, change the terms of any of the
Third-Party Payors' Programs now or hereinafter in effect or their normal
billing payment or reimbursement policies and procedures with respect thereto
(including the amount and timing of finance charges, fees and write-offs), where
such change would have an adverse affect on the operations at or financial
condition of any Facility.
(r) From time to time, upon the request of Lender, regardless of whether or
not an Event of Default has occurred hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents, each Borrower shall, and shall cause each Operator and Manager to
complete, execute and deliver to Lender any applications, notices,
documentation, and other information necessary or desirable, in Lender's
judgment, to permit Lender or its designee (including a receiver) to obtain,
maintain or renew any one or more of the Licenses for a Facility (or to become
the owner of the existing Licenses for a Facility) and to the extent permitted
by applicable law to obtain any other provider agreements, licenses or
governmental authorizations then necessary or desirable for the operation of a
Facility by Lender or its designee for its Licensed Use (including, without
limitation, any applications for change of ownership of the existing Licenses or
change of control of the owner of the existing Licenses). Upon an occurrence of
an Event of Default, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) Lender is
hereby authorized (without the consent of any Borrower, any Operator or Manager)
to submit any such applications, notices, documentation or other information
which a Borrower caused to be delivered to Lender in accordance with the above
provisions to the applicable governmental authorities, or to take such other
steps as Lender may deem advisable to obtain, maintain or renew any License or
other license or governmental authorization in connection with the operation of
any Facility for its Licensed Use, and each Borrower agrees to cooperate and to
cause each Operator and Manager to cooperate with Lender in connection with the
same and (ii) each Borrower, upon demand by Lender, shall take any action and
cause each Operator and Manager to take any action necessary or desirable, in
Lender's sole judgment, to permit Lender or its designee (including a receiver)
to use, operate and maintain each Facility for its Licensed Use. If any
Borrower fails to comply with the provisions of this subsection (q) for any
--------------
reason whatsoever, such Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender and its
designee as such Borrower's attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution,
to take any action and execute any documents and instruments necessary or
desirable in Lender's sole judgment to permit Lender or its designee to
undertake Borrower's obligations under this subsection (q), including without
--------------
limitation, obtaining any licenses or governmental authorizations then required
for the operation of a Facility by Lender or its designee for its Licensed Use.
The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable
and Lender may exercise its rights thereunder in addition to any other remedies
which Lender may have against any Borrower or Guarantor as a result of a
Borrower's breach of the obligations contained in this subsection (q).
---------------
(s) Each Borrower each Operator and Manager shall at all times comply with
all obligations under the contracts and leases with residents of each Facility,
and no Borrower shall commit or permit any default by a Borrower, an Operator or
Manager thereunder. Each Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Lender
and agrees to defend Lender (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Lender) from
and against (collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED CLAIMS") any (i) claims, proceedings
or causes of action brought by any resident of a Facility, and (ii) loss,
damage, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred or
suffered by Lender as a result of any (x) breach by a Borrower, an Operator or
Manager of any contract or lease with a resident of a Facility or (y) violation
of any license or any federal, state or local law governing a Facility or the
use, operation or maintenance thereof for its Licensed Use.
(t) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Senior
Housing Rider to the contrary, if through the exercise of Lender's rights under
the Loan Documents or otherwise, Lender or an affiliate of Lender shall take
permanent possession and control of any Facility, Borrower shall not be liable
to Lender for any Indemnified Claims which first arose after the date ("TRANSFER
DATE") Lender or an affiliate of Lender took permanent possession and control of
that Facility if (but only if) the following conditions are fully satisfied:
(i) None of any Borrower, any Operator, Manager any Affiliate of
Borrower or Manager or any agent, employee or contractor of any of the foregoing
contributed, by act or omission, to the cause, existence, or occurrence of such
Indemnified Claims; and
(ii) The events or state of facts resulting (or with the passage of time
eventually permanently resulting) in any such Indemnified Claims did not exist
prior to the Transfer Date.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Borrower, each Operator and Manager have executed this
Senior Housing Rider or have caused the same to be executed by its duly
authorized representatives as of the date first written above.
