the Worker Adjustment and Restraining Notification Act (the "WARN Act") or any
other comparable state law. Nothing in this Paragraph 5(l) shall, however,
create any rights in favor of any person not a party hereto, including employees
of any of the Properties, or constitute an employment agreement or condition of
employment for any employee of Alterra or any affiliate of Alterra who is a
Hired Employee.
(iv) At Closing or on the Licensure Date, as applicable, Alterra shall
provide an accounting of all accrued and earned paid time off due to all
employees in accordance with Alterra's standard policies and state and federal
law as of 11:59:59 p.m. on the Execution Date or the Licensure Date, as
applicable (collectively, the "Employee Benefits"). Alterra shall be solely
liable for payment of all Employee Benefits due as of 11:59:59 p.m. on the
Execution Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, to all employees (including
all Hired Employees). On the next regularly occurring payday following the
Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, Alterra shall pay to the
employees their respective Employee Benefits in their final paychecks.
(v) Alterra acknowledges and agrees that (A) Purchaser is not assuming any
of Alterra's obligations for benefits pursuant to Section 601, et seq. of ERISA
and Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code ("COBRA"), and that the same
shall remain with Alterra, (B) Purchaser shall not have any liability to any
employees terminated by or at the direction of Alterra prior to the Closing Date
for benefits pursuant to COBRA, and (C) Alterra shall provide required notices
to all employees prior to the Closing Date pursuant to COBRA. In addition,
Alterra shall offer and provide, as appropriate, group health plan continuation
coverage pursuant to the requirements of Section 601 et. Seq. of ERISA and COBRA
to all the employees to whom it is required to offer the same under applicable
law. Purchaser in its discretion may also elect to provide group health plan
coverage to Hired Employees of each of the Properties on such terms as Purchaser
elects.
(vi) For a period of ninety (90) days after the Closing Date or the
Licensure Date, as applicable, Alterra shall retain and continue to make
available for consultation with Purchaser the Directors of Nursing, Property
Administrators and employees of Alterra who are not employed at any of the
Properties but who provide essential services to any of the Properties, such as
billing, collection, filing Medicaid cost reports, attending to licensing
issues, and similar services, and investigating, documenting, and filing proof
of claims with respect to potential claims arising under any of the Properties'
insurance policies.
(m) ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE.
(i) Subject to Paragraphs 5(h) and (i) with respect to the proration of
revenues and expenses from operating the Properties, Alterra shall retain all
unpaid accounts receivable, including, but not limited to, any arising prior to
the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, and any accounts
receivable arising from rate adjustments which relate to the period prior to the
Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, even if such adjustments
occur from and after the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, as
of 11:59:59 p.m. on the Execution Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, but
only to the extent that such accounts receivable relate to services rendered
prior to the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, and Alterra
shall provide Purchaser with copies of all records with respect thereto upon
request. All accounts receivable that relate to services rendered from and
after the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, shall be the sole
property of Purchaser free and clear of any liens or any security interests
(other than those granted in favor of Lender and expressly assumed by Purchaser
under the Loan Assumption Documents).
(ii) If at any time from and after the Closing Date or the Licensure Date,
as applicable, Purchaser shall receive any payment, which payment represents
payment for, or reimbursement with respect to, payments or underpayments made to
Alterra for services rendered prior to the Closing Date or the Licensure Date,
as applicable, then Purchaser shall remit such payments to Alterra. If at any
time before or after the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable,
Alterra shall receive any payment, which payment represents payment for, or
reimbursement with respect to, payments or underpayments made to Purchaser for
services to be rendered from and after the Closing Date or the Licensure Date,
as applicable, then Alterra shall remit such payments to Purchaser. All
non-designated payments received during the first thirty (30) days after the
Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, will first be applied to any
pre-Closing Date accounts receivable of Alterra due from such payee and not
older than sixty (60) days since the date of invoice, with the excess, if any,
applied to the extent of any balances due for services rendered by Purchaser
from and after the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable. All
non-designated payments thereafter shall be retained by Purchaser; provided,
however, that if Purchaser has been paid all amounts due from a resident during
the period that Purchaser operates the applicable Property and that resident is
no longer a resident of the applicable Property, any non-designated payments
shall be remitted to Alterra if Alterra documents that it has a balance due from
that resident.
(iii) To the extent either party receives any proceeds from the accounts
receivable of the other party, both parties acknowledge that the party receiving
the payment belonging to the other party shall hold the payment in trust, that
neither party shall have any right to offset with respect to such accounts
receivable, and that the party erroneously receiving the payment shall have no
right, title or interest whatsoever in the payment and shall remit the same to
the other within ten (10) days of receipt.
6. CONTRACTS/RECORDS.
-----------------
(a) CONTRACTS AND RESIDENCY AGREEMENTS. Purchaser shall not be obligated to
assume any leases or executory contracts of Alterra except to the extent
specifically set forth herein:
(i) The parties acknowledge and agree that prior to Closing, Alterra
has provided Purchaser with copies of all current service contracts with third
party vendors related to the Properties (collectively, the "Operating
Contracts") and the Alterra Entities acknowledge that none of the Operating
Contracts were in the name of Seller. The parties further acknowledge that prior
to Closing, Purchaser has provided Alterra with written notice of any Operating
Contracts it wanted Alterra to terminate, and Alterra has provided notice to the
appropriate vendors to terminate such contracts effective upon Closing or the
Licensure Date, as applicable, or as soon as possible after Closing or the
Licensure Date, as applicable. Alterra and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that
in the event any of the Operating Contracts have been terminated at the
direction of Purchaser but such termination will not be effective until after
the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, as a result of the notice
provisions set forth in such Operating Contracts (the "Termination Date"), if
and to the extent Purchaser derives any benefit from the goods or services
provided under such Operating Contracts between the Closing Date or the
Licensure Date, as applicable, and the Termination Date, Purchaser shall
reimburse Alterra as part of the reconciliation process for any payments under
such Operating Contracts made between the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as
applicable, and the Termination Date.
(ii) All Operating Contracts that Purchaser did not specify to be terminated
are set forth on ExhibitG and shall constitute the "Designated Third Party
--------
Contracts" for the Properties and shall be assigned by Alterra to Purchaser at
Closing or to Purchaser or Purchaser's desginee on the Licensure Date, as
applicable, pursuant to the Assignment Agreement; provided, however, that in no
event shall Purchaser assume any liability related to goods or services provided
under the Designated Third Party Contracts relating to periods prior to the
Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable.
(iii) To the extent permitted by applicable law, Purchaser shall assume the
residency agreements for residents at the Property on the Closing Date or the
Licensure Date, as applicable, for residency, services, or care provided from
and after the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable (collectively,
the "Residency Agreements").
(b) RECORDS. The parties acknowledge and agree that prior to Closing, to
the extent authorized by applicable law, Purchaser was permitted to review the
files and records physically located at each of the Properties, including
without limitation all resident lists, suppliers' names, vendors' names,
resident billing information, rate information, unit mix information, employment
files, medical records, cost reports, surveys with plans of correction,
historical financial records related to the Properties, nonproprietary
electronic files, and any other nonproprietary operational information or data
reasonably necessary to the operation of the Properties, and that Purchaser has
notified Alterra in writing prior to Closing which files and records, if any,
Purchaser wants removed from any of the Properties at Closing or on the
Licensure Date, as applicable, it being understood and agreed that the files and
records related to the Colorado Springs Property, including those designated by
Purchaser for removal, will remain at the Colorado Springs Property until the
Licensure Date. At Closing or on the Licensure Date, as applicable, Alterra
shall remove the designated files and records and shall transfer to Purchaser
all other files and records located at each of the Properties (collectively, the
"Records"); provided, however, Alterra shall be entitled to keep copies of all
of the foregoing as they deem necessary.
7. ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF THE ALTERRA ENTITIES. Each of the Alterra
----------------------------------------------
Entities on behalf of itself only and not on behalf of the other Alterra Entity
does hereby covenant and agree for the benefit of Purchaser as follows:
(a) TRANSFER OF RESIDENTS. After the Closing Date, the Alterra
Entities agree not to actively solicit (or permit the active solicitation) for
transfer any residents of the Properties.
(b) NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES. The Alterra Entities agree not to
directly solicit (or permit the direct solicitation of) any of the Hired
Employees for employment at any other facility owned or operated by the Alterra
Entities or any affiliate thereof for a period of one year after the Closing
Date with respect to all of the Properties other than the Colorado Springs
Property and for a period of one year after the Licensure Date, in the case of
the Hired Employees at the Colorado Springs Property.
(c) ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE REPORTS. After the Closing Date until all
accounts receivable have been reconciled or written off by Purchaser, Alterra
will provide Purchaser with copies of accounts receivable aging reports for the
Properties as soon as such reports are available, but in no event later than
forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar month.
(d) OTHER REPORTS. After the Closing Date, Alterra agrees to provide
Purchaser, upon its written request, with such financial and operating reports
for the Properties relating to the period prior to the Closing Date as Purchaser
may request from time to time, and which can be produced on an automated basis,
provided that any such request is made no later than ninety (90) days after the
Closing Date with respect to all of the Properties other than the Colorado
Springs Property or within ninety (90) days after the Licensure Date, in the
case of the Colorado Springs Property.
8. POST CLOSING ACCESS TO RECORDS AND EXCLUDED PROPERTY.
-----------------------------------------------------------
(a) Subsequent to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall allow Alterra and its
agents and representatives, at their sole cost and expense, to have reasonable
access to (upon reasonable prior notice), and to make copies of, the books and
records and supporting material of each Property relating to the period prior to
the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, to the extent reasonably
necessary to enable Alterra to investigate and defend malpractice, employee, or
other claims, to file or defend cost reports and tax returns, to verify accounts
receivable collections, and to perform similar matters. Purchaser will maintain
such books, records, and other material comprising records of each Property's
operations prior to the Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, that

limited to, resident records and records of resident funds, to the extent
required by law, but in no event less than a period of three (3) years (provided
that Purchaser will have no liability for failure to maintain any records which
are destroyed as a result of a fire or other similar casualty). Notwithstanding
the above, (i) Alterra shall remove from each Property any records that
Purchaser requests to be removed in accordance with Paragraph 6(c), and (ii)
with respect to any records that Purchaser does not request Alterra to remove at
Closing or on the Licensure Date, as applicable, Purchaser may deliver any such
records to Alterra at any time after Closing or the Licensure Date, as
applicable, and shall thereafter not be required to maintain such records except
to the extent required by law.
(b) The Alterra Parties shall have a period of fifteen (15) days after the
Closing Date or the Licensure Date, as applicable, to remove Excluded Property
from the Properties, at Alterra's sole cost and expense and upon reasonable

--

Alterra Entities from any acts or omissions by Alterra in connection with its
operation of the Colorado Springs Property from the Closing Date until the
Licensure Date.
(b) SELLER INDEMNIFICATION OF PURCHASER. Seller shall defend, indemnify,
and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any and all losses, damages, costs,

"Indemnifying Party") in writing, which notice shall describe the claim in
reasonable detail, and shall indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary and to
the extent feasible) of the claim. The failure of any Indemnified Party to

Indemnified Party from obtaining indemnification under this Agreement, except to

Indemnifying Party's rights or materially increased its liabilities and
obligations hereunder. In the event of a third party claim which is subject to

defend such claim by counsel of its own choosing, subject to the approval of the
