2. Company guaranteed the Loans made under the Credit Agreement and serves as Manager for the Projects.

3. To evidence and secure the extension of credit under the Credit Agreement, Borrower or Company, or both, executed and delivered to KCCI the Credit Documents, including those listed on Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof. Certain of the Credit Documents have been recorded in the appropriate filing offices, as also indicated on Exhibit B.

4. As contemplated by the Credit Agreement, Borrower has entered into Designated Hedge Agreements, to which certain of the Lenders are parties, and which are entitled to the benefit of the collateral for the Loans.

5. Borrower has defaulted in performing Borrower's obligations under the Credit Documents by, among other things, failing to pay the installment of principal and interest required by the Note to be paid on April 1, 2001 and by failing to pay all such installments due after April 1, 2001. Borrower also has defaulted in performing Borrower's obligations under the Designated Hedge Agreements.

6. All notice provisions contained in the Credit Documents and the Designated Hedge Agreements have been complied with, all grace periods have either expired or been waived by Borrower and Company, and Lenders have declared the principal, interest and all other obligations owing by Borrower to the Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents or the Designated Hedge Agreements to be due and payable.

7. Borrower and Company have determined that the fair market value of the Projects is materially less than the amount of the Obligations.

8. Borrower and Company have requested that Lenders resolve the default of Borrower and Company under the Credit Documents by agreeing to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

If at the time of KCCI's notice to Borrower of such requirements as to a Project, the Transfer Documents for such Project remain on deposit in escrow with the Escrow Agent, then Borrower likewise shall deposit the additional instruments in the escrow. Otherwise, Borrower shall deliver such instruments to KCCI or its designee, pursuant to KCCI's direction.

(c) Deliveries from Escrow. At any time and from time to time with respect to one or more Projects, KCCI shall have the right at KCCI's option, but not the obligation (except as provided below in Section 2.9(e)), to direct the Escrow Agent to deliver to KCCI or its designee (i) some or all of the Transfer Documents for one or more Project(s) and to cause such Transfer Documents to be recorded; or (ii) as provided below, to direct Borrower to substitute for the Transfer Documents as to such Project(s) documents in the same form but naming a buyer designated by KCCI as grantee; provided, however, that KCCI may so direct the Escrow Agent as to Transfer Documents for a Refinancing Project only upon the failure to occur of the First Performance Condition by December 28, 2001 as to any such individual Refinancing Project, or the failure to occur of the Second Performance Condition by January 31, 2002 as to any such individual Refinancing Project, or the failure to occur of the Third Performance Condition by the tenth (10^th) Business Day after the Effective Date as to any such individual Refinancing Project.

Notwithstanding acquisition of a Project by KCCI or its designee, the Note for that Project shall not be cancelled, KCCI shall retain its right to elect to pursue foreclosure and the interest of KCCI or such designee in the Project after acquisition shall not merge with KCCI's interest in and lien upon the Project under the Credit Documents. KCCI shall use reasonable efforts to notify Borrower Parties of any such withdrawal on the date thereof.

(d) Aggregate Re-Financing. The references in this Section 2.9 to individual Refinancing Projects shall not modify the requirements above in Section 2.3 to an aggregate, contemporaneous closing for the release of Refinancing Projects.

(g) Absolute Conveyance. Borrower Parties acknowledge and agree that: (i) the conveyance of a Project to KCCI or its designee upon delivery by the Escrow Agent of the applicable Transfer Document, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement is an absolute conveyance of all of Borrower's right, title and interest in and to such Project in fact as well as in form, and the Transfer Documents are not intended to be a mortgage, trust conveyance, deed of trust, or security instrument of any kind; (ii) the consideration for that conveyance is exactly as recited in this Agreement; and (iii) after delivery of the Transfer Document by the Escrow Agent to KCCI or its designee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Borrower will have no redemption, or claims in, to or against such Project or to the proceeds or profits that might be derived therefrom. Without limiting the foregoing, terms used in the Transfer Documents such as "to the extent assignable under applicable law", "subject to applicable law" and words of similar effect are intended by the parties to reflect only that certain state laws and/or regulations concerning assisted living or dementia/Alzheimer care facilities, as the case may be, may condition assignment or transfer of Residency Agreements and/or rights to own, operate or manage such facilities upon satisfaction of certain licensing or other similar requirements.

ARTICLE V DEBT SERVICE PAYMENTS AND LOCKBOX

5.1 Debt Service. During the Term of this Agreement, Borrower shall pay to KCCI monthly debt service payments ("Debt Service Payments") with respect to each Project for which the Escrow Agent holds Transfer Documents equal to the sum of: (i) monthly NOI minus (ii) the management fee permitted by the terms of the Management Contract, as amended by the Amendment to Management Contract. The obligation of Borrower to make such Debt Service Payments shall commence as of September 1, 2001, and upon Closing Borrower shall pay to KCCI all Debt Service Payments accrued and unpaid as of the Closing Date (collectively, the "Accrued Debt Service Payments"). Debt Service Payments payable for any partial month within which the Closing occurs, or payable as to a Project for any partial month within which a Release is delivered by KCCI, shall be prorated based upon the number of calendar days occurring in such month. After the Closing, Debt Service Payments shall be due and payable not later than the twentieth (20^th) day of each calendar month as to NOI for the prior calendar month. Each payment shall be accompanied by reasonable back-up information showing the calculation of the Debt Service Payment. The foregoing provisions regarding Debt Service Payments shall not waive or reduce Borrower's obligation to pay any excess of the monthly debt service payments otherwise due under the Credit Documents over the Debt Service Payments made for such month and such excess shall accrue and be added to the outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Documents, subject to interest pursuant to the terms of the Credit Documents; provided, however, that the provisions of Sections 7.2, 7.3 and 7.5 of this Agreement shall govern Borrower's obligation to pay any such excess. The provisions of this Section 5.1 are subject to the provisions of Section 4(e) of the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement.

5.2 Cash Flow Assignment Agreement. Upon closing, Borrower Parties shall deliver to KCCI the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement. Borrower Parties acknowledge that the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement, inter alia, grants a security interest to KCCI in and to all of the right, title and interest of each of Borrower and Company in and to the Project Revenues and includes provisions relating to disbursements from the Collection Account and other deposit accounts contemplated by the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement.

-31-

5.3 Collection Account Arrangements. As more fully provided in the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement:

(a) At or prior to Closing, Borrower and Company shall establish a deposit account, separate from any deposit account used by any of Borrower Parties for any other projects, and established for the benefit of KCCI, with a depository institution approved by KCCI (a Collection Account") and shall execute and deliver, and shall cause the depository institution to execute and deliver, to KCCI the Collection Account Agreement; and

(b) Commencing not later than the Closing Date, Borrower and Company shall deposit all Project Revenues for the Projects for which the Escrow Agent holds Transfer Documents, into the Collection Account, as more fully provided in the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement.

5.4 Closing Payment. On the Effective Date, Borrower shall pay to KCCI $100,000 in immediately available funds.

5.5 Subordination of Management Fees to Operating Deficits. Based upon the monthly income statement for each Project provided to KCCI by Company pursuant to Section 4.1(j)(i) of this Agreement, KCCI shall prepare a monthly combined income statement for all of the Projects on an aggregate basis, showing Project Revenues and Allowed Expenses (including in Allowed Expenses, for purposes of this Section 5.5, accruals for expenses of the type shown on historic monthly operating expense reports delivered to KCCI and capital expenditures approved in advance by KCCI) for each calendar month commencing after the Effective Date, and showing whether an Operating Deficit exists for the month covered by the report (the "Combined Income Statement"). Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Workout Documents or the Management Contracts to the contrary, to the extent that an Operating Deficit does exist, as shown on a Combined Income Statement, the management fees otherwise payable to Company as Manager (including, after a Notice of Disbursement Control under the Cash Flow Assignment, only those then payable pursuant to the Disbursement Procedures) for such month (and, if necessary, any subsequent month) shall be subordinated to the prior payment of Allowed Expenses; provided, however, that the cumulative management fees subordinated shall not exceed $100,000 in the aggregate for all periods (such aggregate subordinated fees, the "Subordinated Management Fees"). "Operating Deficits" shall mean the excess of (i) Allowed Expenses over (ii) Project Revenues, in each case on an aggregate basis for all of the Projects for each calendar month commencing after the Effective Date. If a Combined Income Statement for a month subsequent to any such subordination of management fees shows that, on an aggregate basis, Project Revenues exceed Allowed Expenses for such month, then the Subordinated Management Fees shall be payable to Company to the extent of the amount of such excess and the Debt Service Payment for such month (and, if necessary, any subsequent month) will be reduced to the extent of such Subordinated Management Fees then paid; provided, however, the amount of the Subordinated Management Fees payable to Company for such month shall not exceed the amount of the Debt Service Payment payable to the Lenders for the same month.

(b) Each and every acknowledgment, warranty, representation, agreement and covenant of Borrower Parties, or any of them, in this Agreement or the other Workout Documents has been provided to KCCI as a material inducement to KCCI's willingness to enter into this Agreement and the other Workout Documents and to compromise the claims set forth herein and are relied upon by KCCI for such purposes;

(c) Except in connection with a Release deliverable pursuant to Section 2.4 or as expressly provided in Section 7.3 or Section 7.5 of this Agreement, KCCI shall have no obligation to release Borrower Parties or any other Person from its liability under the Credit Documents; and

(vi) either Borrower or Company files (or in the case of Company causes Borrower to file) any voluntary petition with respect to Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code, or files any petition for dissolution or liquidation, or in any manner seeks relief under any state, federal or other insolvency laws or other laws providing for relief of debtors, with respect to Borrower;

(C) either of Borrower Parties shall be named as a defendant in a criminal indictment related to such party's ownership or management of a Project and such indictment arises out of such Borrower Party's actual failure to comply with any Legal Requirements (irrespective of whether a conviction is obtained) and which non-compliance has a Material Adverse Effect;

(E) either of Borrower Parties shall have breached its respective representations and warranties pursuant to Section 3.1 of this Agreement, which breach shall have a Material Adverse Effect;

-42-

(ii) KCCI shall have given Borrower Parties notice of such Section 7.1(b) Event (which notice shall specifically identify such event as a "Section 7.1(b) Event") and, in the case of a Section 7.1(b) Event described in items (B), (C), (D), (F), (G), (I), (J) or (K) above, an opportunity to cure such event during the applicable cure period for such event provided in Section 6.1(b) hereof (the "Cure Period"); provided, however, that if Section 6.1(b) provides that the cure period shall be measured from any earlier notice to one of Borrower Parties from the applicable governmental or regulatory authority, then the cure period for purposes of this Section 7.1(b) likewise shall run from the date of such notice from the applicable governmental or regulatory authority; and

(iii) Prior to (aa) in the case of a Section 7.1(b) Event described in items (B), (C), (D), (F), (G), (I), (J) or (K) above, the lapse of the applicable Cure Period; or (bb) in the case of a Section 7.1(b) Event described in item (A) above, fifteen (15) days after the date of notice thereof to one of Borrower Parties from the applicable governmental or regulatory authority; (cc) in the case of a Section 7.1(b) Event described in item (E) above, fifteen (15) days after KCCI's notice to Borrower Parties with respect thereto, or (dd) in the case of a Section 7.1(b) Event described in item (H) above, three (3) days after KCCI's notice to Borrower Parties with respect thereto, Borrower Parties shall have failed to offer to pay to KCCI, in cash, on or before the Cure Payment Date an amount equal to or in excess of the Cure Payment Amount for such Section 7.1(b) Event (such offer the "Cure Offer") or, if a Cure Offer has been made, has failed to make payment thereof to KCCI as contemplated hereby. "Cure Payment Date" shall mean the first Business Day thirty (30) days following the date upon which Borrower Parties shall give a Cure Offer to KCCI with respect to such Section 7.1(b) Event; provided, however, that in the case of a Section 7.1(b) Event described in item (H) or (K) above, the Cure Payment Date shall be the third (3^rd) day after KCCI's notice to Borrower Parties with respect thereto; provided, further, however, that in the event of a good faith dispute as to the amount of any Debt Service Payment, the Cure Payment Date shall be extended until two (2) Business Days after such disputed amount is determined, whether by the parties or the Consultant, but such extension shall not relate to any undisputed portion of such Debt Service Payment. "Cure Payment Amount" shall be the reasonably estimated amount of the diminution of economic value suffered by the Project(s) due to the Section 7.1(b) Event, such amount to be determined by the mutual agreement of Company and KCCI or, in the absence of any such mutual agreement, by Senior Living Valuation Services, Inc. (the "Consultant"); provided, however, that in the case of a Section 7.(b) Event described in item (H) above, the Cure Payment Amount shall be the Debt Service Payment at issue, plus interest at the rate provided for in the Credit Agreement in the case of a Default under Section 10(a) thereof for the period from the original due date for such payment under Section 5.1 of this Agreement until it is paid; and provided, however, that, in the case of any other Section 7.1(b) Event, the Cure Payment Amount likewise shall include interest at the rate provided for in the Credit Agreement in the case of a Default under Section 10(a) thereof for the period from the original due date for such payment or for performance of such obligation under the Workout Documents, as the case may be, until the Cure Payment Amount is paid. If, prior to the Cure Payment Date, Company and KCCI shall not be in agreement as to the Cure Payment Amount, the parties hereto shall promptly cooperate in submitting the determination of the Cure Payment Amount to the Consultant. The Borrower Parties and KCCI will request that the Consultant make its determination thereof within thirty (30) days after submission of the issue to the Consultant, but the parties recognize that a reasonable additional amount of time may be needed due to prior commitments of the Consultant. The Consultant's determination of the Cure Payment Amount shall be final, non-appealable and binding upon the parties, and the Cure Payment Date shall be extended until two (2) Business Days following notice from the Consultant to Borrower Parties of its determination of the Cure Payment Amount.

-43-

(iv) The parties acknowledge that a default under Section 6.1 may also be a Section 7.1(b) Event, and that KCCI is not obligated to characterize a default as a Section 7.1(b) Event if KCCI is exercising its rights and remedies under the Workout Documents (other than Sections 13 through 16 of the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement) rather than its rights and remedies under the Credit Documents or under Sections 13 through 16 of the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement. If, as referenced above in Section 7.1(b)(ii), KCCI gives Borrower Parties notice of a default that is included in the term "Section 7.1(b) Event", but does not specifically identify such event as a "Section 7.1(b) Event", then such event will not become a Fundamental Breach Event unless and until the notice contemplated by the first sentence of Section 7.1(b)(ii) is given, with specific identification of the default as a "Section 7.1(b) Event" and subsequent thereto the applicable Cure Payment Amount, if any, is not timely paid pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(iii) hereof.

7.2 Standstill. Unless and until a Fundamental Breach Event shall occur, Lenders shall not xxx Company or Borrower or otherwise exercise any right or remedy under the Credit Documents or Sections 13 through 16 of the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement, except as expressly permitted under this Agreement and the Workout Documents (the "Forbearance Covenant").

7.3 Lenders'Covenant Not to Xxx as to Deficiency.

(a) Lenders shall execute and deliver to Company and Borrower a covenant not to xxx Company or Borrower as to any deficiency claim held by them as to the Loans (the "Covenant Not to Xxx") upon the first of the following dates to occur, provided that Section 7.3(b) of this Agreement does not apply:

(i) the date upon which the Release Conditions shall be satisfied and (1) sale, refinancing and/or completion of transition of management of all of the Projects (including the License Transfer Obligations, if applicable) shall have occurred, or

(2) the Escrow Closing Date shall have occurred, or,

(ii) if the Release Conditions shall not have been satisfied as of the first to occur of the dates referenced in clauses (i)(1) and (2) above because a Pending Fundamental Breach Event shall be in existence on such date, the date upon which a Cure Offer with respect thereto shall have been timely paid pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(iii) hereof, or the date upon which such Pending Fundamental Breach Event otherwise is cured in accordance herewith

(such date, the "Borrower Party Release Date"). For purposes hereof, the "Release Conditions" shall be deemed satisfied as of a particular date if neither (y) a Fundamental Breach Event shall have occurred prior to such date, nor (z)(i) any event shall have occurred and be continuing as of such date which, with notice and/or the lapse of any applicable cure period without a cure, would be a Fundamental Breach Event (such event, a "Pending Fundamental Breach Event") or, (ii) if a Pending Fundamental Breach Event has occurred prior to such date, a Cure Offer shall not have been timely paid with respect to such Pending Fundamental Breach Event pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(iii) hereof, or such Pending Fundamental Breach Event otherwise shall not have been cured in accordance herewith.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 7.3(a) of this Agreement, if as of the Borrower Party Release Date the conditions for the Lenders'execution and delivery of the Covenant Not to Xxx have been satisfied but any license of the Company is being utilized by a third party in accordance with and pursuant to Section 9.2 of a Management Contract, then:

-45-

(i) The obligation of the Lenders to execute and deliver the Covenant Not to Xxx pursuant hereto shall be deferred until such time as the first to occur of:

(A) no third parties are utilizing any license of the Company pursuant to and in accordance with Section 9.2 of a Management Contract or

(B) no third parties are entitled to utilize any license of the Company pursuant to and in accordance with Section 9.2 of a Management Contract (including, without limitation, circumstances in which the indemnity required by Section 9.2 of the applicable Management Contract is not provided or the time period for third parties to utilize a license as specified in Section 9.2 of the applicable Management Contract shall have expired) (such earlier date, the "Delayed Release Date") and,

(ii) if the obligation of the Lenders to execute and deliver the Covenant Not to Xxx is so deferred as provided by clause (i) of this Section 7.3(b), then upon the Delayed Release Date the Lenders shall execute and deliver to Company and Borrower the Covenant Not to Xxx unless the Company shall have failed to permit a license to be utilized by a third party pursuant to and in accordance with Section 9.2 of a Management Contract, and such failure has resulted in a Fundamental Breach Event pursuant to Section 7.1 of this Agreement (such circumstances, a "Delayed Release Default"), it being the parties intent that if the conditions (excluding the provisions of this Section 7.3(b)) for the Lenders'execution and delivery of the Covenant Not to Xxx are satisfied on the Borrower Party Release Date, the only remaining condition to the Lenders'obligation to execute and deliver the Covenant Not to Xxx on the Delayed Release Date shall be the absence of a Delayed Release Default arising during the period commencing on the Borrower Party Release Date and ending on the Delayed Release Date.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to the Borrower Party Release Date or any Delayed Release Date, if applicable, a plan of reorganization of Company (and/or certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates other than Borrower) is confirmed pursuant to an order under Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code and such plan shall no longer be subject to appeal (the first Business Day upon which such circumstances shall be applicable, the "Plan Confirmation Date"), and provided that

-46-

(i) such plan provides for the assumption by Company of this Agreement and the Workout Documents (including without limitation the Management Contracts) pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 365 and the immediate cure of any delinquencies thereunder,

(ii) no Fundamental Breach Event shall have occurred prior to such Plan Confirmation Date and

(iii) no Pending Fundamental Breach Event shall be pending and continuing without timely payment of a Cure Offer with respect thereto or other cure in accordance herewith as of such Plan Confirmation Date.

Lenders shall execute and deliver such Covenant Not to Xxx contemporaneous with, and effective upon, such Plan Confirmation Date.

(d) At such time as the conditions set forth in this Section 7.3 to the Lenders'obligation to deliver the Covenant Not to Xxx are incapable of being satisfied, then Lenders reserve their rights to prosecute their claims, including without limitation, those as to any deficiency.

(e) Without limiting the obligations of Borrower and Company under Article II of this Agreement, the failure to occur of any or all of the Performance Conditions shall not itself constitute a breach of the obligations of Borrower or Company under this Agreement and the Workout Documents.

7.4 Borrower Parties'Release of and Covenant Not to Xxx Lenders. Borrower Parties, and each of them, jointly and severally, on behalf of themselves and all of their respective successors and assigns, do hereby remise, release, acquit, satisfy and forever discharge each of Lenders and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, participants, predecessors, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns (the "Lender Released Parties"), from any and all manner of debts, accounts, warranties, representations, covenants, contracts, agreements, liabilities, obligations, expenses, damages, actions, claims, counter-claims, demands, causes of action, suits, defenses, offsets against the Obligations of any nature whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, known or unknown, either now accrued or hereafter maturing, in contract or in tort, at law or in equity, (the "Claims") which Borrower Parties, or any of them, now has or hereafter can, shall or may have against KCCI or Lenders, jointly or severally, by reason of any matter, cause or thing, from the beginning of the world to and including the date of this Agreement, including specifically, but without limitation, matters arising out of or relating to, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly: (a) the Loans; (b) the Credit Documents or the indebtedness evidenced and secured thereby; or (c) the Projects (the "Borrower Parties'Release"); provided, however, nothing herein shall release or diminish the Borrower Parties'respective rights under this Agreement and the Workout Documents, which rights shall survive this Agreement. Further, Borrower Parties, jointly and severally, for themselves and all of their respective heirs, successors and assigns, hereby covenant and agree never to institute or cause to be instituted or continue prosecution of, or participation in, any suit or other form of action or proceeding of any kind or nature against any of Lenders or any subsidiaries or affiliates of any of Lenders, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, participants, predecessors, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns, by reason of or in connection with any of the foregoing matters arising prior to or through the date of this Agreement other than to enforce the terms of this Agreement and/or any of the Workout Documents (the "Borrower Parties'Covenant Not to Xxx").

-47-

7.5 Lenders'Release of Borrower Parties. On the date the Lenders shall first be obligated to execute and deliver the Covenant Not to Xxx pursuant to Section 7.3 hereof (the "Section 7.3 Date") provided that simultaneous therewith the Borrower Parties shall execute and deliver a supplemental release and a supplemental covenant not to xxx in favor of the Lender Released Parties covering all of the matters specified in the Borrower Parties'Release and the Borrower Parties Covenant not to Xxx through the Section 7.3 Date as well as all Claims of the Borrower Parties under this Agreement and the Workout Documents, (i) KCCI and Lenders, and each of them, jointly and severally, on behalf of themselves and all of their respective successors and assigns will provide written confirmation that they do remise, release, acquit, satisfy and forever discharge each of Borrower Parties and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, predecessors, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns, from any and all manner of debts, accounts, warranties, representations, covenants, contracts, agreements, liabilities, obligations, expenses, damages, actions, claims, counter-claims, demands, causes of action, suits or defenses of any nature whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, known or unknown, either now accrued or hereafter maturing, in contract or in tort, at law or in equity, which KCCI or Lenders, or any of them, now has or hereafter can, shall or may have against Borrower Parties, jointly or severally, by reason of any matter, cause or thing, from the beginning of the world to and the Section 7.3 Date, arising out of or relating to, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly: (a) the Loans; (b) the Credit Documents or the indebtedness evidenced and secured thereby; (c) the Projects; (d) this Agreement or (e) the other Workout Documents (but excluding any unrelated loans or indebtedness) and (ii) KCCI and Lenders, jointly and severally, for themselves and all of their respective heirs, successors and assigns, hereby covenant and agree never to institute or cause to be instituted or continue prosecution of any suit or other form of action or proceeding of any kind or nature against any of Borrower Parties or any subsidiaries or affiliates of any of Borrower Parties, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, participants, predecessors, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns, by reason of or in connection with any of the foregoing matters, claims or causes of action arising prior to or through the Section 7.3 Date, other than to enforce the terms of this Agreement and/or any of the Workout Documents; provided, however, that the foregoing release and covenant not to xxx shall not apply to the rights of any Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 7.6. Without limiting the foregoing, the release provided for above in this Section 7.5 shall be void ab initio and of no force or effect if any of Borrower Parties breaches its agreement under the second sentence of Section 7.4 above or if any Transfer Documents delivered to KCCI, or its designee, pursuant to this Agreement or the release by Borrower Parties of the Lenders set forth in Section 7.4 of this Agreement is ever rendered void, is rescinded or adjudicated unenforceable by operation of law or by order of any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction, by reason of an order arising out of any claim or proceeding initiated or commenced in favor of, against, or on behalf of or in concert with, directly or indirectly, any of Borrower Parties.

-48-

7.6 Borrower Parties'Indemnification of KCCI and Lenders.

(a) In the event any Project is conveyed to KCCI, its designee or any entity procured by or at the behest of KCCI or the Lenders, Borrower Parties hereby irrevocably covenant and agree, on a joint and several basis, to indemnify, save, defend and hold harmless each Lender and the Collateral Agent, each counterparty to any Designated Hedge Agreement, any grantee of the Project, their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents, and the successors and assigns of each of the foregoing (any or all of such persons being individually referred to herein as an "Indemnified Person" and collectively referred to herein as the "Indemnified Persons" and each such reference shall refer jointly and severally to each such Indemnified Person), from and against the full amount of any and all actions, claims, costs, damages, defenses, demands, disbursements, expenses, fees, fines, judgments, lawsuits, liabilities, liens, losses, obligations, penalties and/or proceedings (including, but not limited to, all reasonable attorneys'fees and all other professional or consultant's expenses) incurred in respect of, as a consequence of, or in connection with any of the Projects and which arose or accrued prior to the date of such transfer of the Project (but excluding the Loans) ("Losses"). The foregoing indemnification shall not extend to Losses incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Person which are directly attributable to (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Person; or (ii) events or circumstances affecting the Project which occurred following such time as (A) any Indemnified Person shall have indefeasibly succeeded to Borrower's interest in such Project (whether by foreclosure or transfer of title in lieu of foreclosure) to the exclusion of the Indemnitors, or (B) management of the Project is transferred to a party other than either of Borrower Parties in accordance with the Workout Documents, except to the extent that the Losses include claims arising due to breaches of or non-compliance with obligations of a Borrower Party prior to the occurrence of the events described in clause (ii) above or negligence or willful misconduct of a Borrower Party after the occurrence of the events described in clause (ii)(B) above; provided, however, that the foregoing provisions of this sentence shall not limit or otherwise affect Company's indemnification obligations under the Management Contracts, as referenced in Section 9(a)(ii) of the Cash Flow Assignment Agreement. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Indemnified Person set forth in this Agreement may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Indemnitors shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Losses and other liabilities and amounts as to which indemnification is intended hereunder which is permissible under applicable law.

-49-

(b) If any Indemnified Person receives written notice of (i) the commencement of any judicial, quasi-judicial, administrative or governmental proceeding brought involving any matter which may give rise to Losses hereunder, in which such Indemnified Person is named as a defendant, in each case which could reasonably be expected to result in a claim for indemnification by such Indemnified Person under this Agreement, it shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof in writing and the Collateral Agent will, in turn, promptly notify the Indemnitors thereof in writing; provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice will not constitute a waiver of any right of any Indemnified Person (i) to any advance or indemnification hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnitors may be materially prejudiced by the failure of the Collateral Agent to give such notice to it, but then only to the extent of such prejudice, or (ii) to release the Indemnitors from any obligation to indemnify any Indemnified Person which the Indemnitors may otherwise have to any Indemnified Person.

(c) (i) Upon request of any Indemnified Person, the Indemnitors shall defend any and all claims and proceedings relating to any [claims] that may be brought or asserted against such Indemnified Person in connection with or arising out of any of the matters covered by the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. In the event that the Indemnitors are defending an Indemnified Person, the Indemnitors may settle an claim against such Indemnified Person, including one which is the subject of a Proceeding, provided that (A) such settlement results in the complete release of such Indemnified Person, with prejudice, from any such claim (and any such Proceeding), (B) such settlement does not require the payment of any sum, the taking of any action, the making of any admission of culpability, or the incurrence of any obligation, by such Indemnified Person, and (C) contemporaneously with such settlement, such Indemnified Person is fully reimbursed for any Losses incurred in connection with such claim (and any such proceeding).

(ii) In the event an Indemnified Person has required the Indemnitors pursuant to the provisions of section 7.6(c)(i) to defend it in respect of any matter, such defense shall be conducted by reputable attorneys retained by the Indemnitors, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, at the Indemnitors'sole cost and expense. In addition, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to participate in such proceedings and to be represented by attorneys of its own choosing. In such case, the Indemnified Person shall be responsible for the cost of such participation unless the Indemnified Person shall have concluded in its reasonable discretion that the interest of the Indemnified Person and of the Indemnitors in the action conflict in such a manner and to such an extent as to require, consistent with applicable standards of professional responsibility, the retention of separate counsel for the Indemnified Person, in which event the Indemnitors shall pay for all reasonable attorneys'fees and expenses of such separate counsel chosen by the Indemnified Person. If the Indemnitors do not timely commence any such defense, the Indemnified Person may conduct, at the Indemnified Person's expense, the defense of such matter and the Indemnitors will be obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Person for all Losses in connection therewith, including, without limitation, the amount of any adverse final judgment or decree rendered in such matter and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the defense of such matter including reasonable attorneys' fees.

Except as specifically and expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Workout Documents, nothing contained in this Agreement and the other Workout Documents shall constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies of KCCI under the Credit Documents and at law and in equity. No delay or failure on the part of KCCI in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Workout Documents, and no course of dealing between KCCI and Borrower and/or Company, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by KCCI of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Workout Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on Borrower or Company in any case shall entitle Borrower or Company to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of KCCI to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. No action or forbearance by KCCI contrary to the provisions of this Agreement or of any of the other Workout Documents shall be construed to constitute a waiver of any of the express provisions hereof or thereof. Any party may in writing expressly waive any of such party's rights under this Agreement or under any of the other Workout Documents without invalidating this Agreement or the other Workout Documents or any portion hereof.

(c) Marshalling. Borrower Parties, for themselves and all Persons who may claim by, through or under them, waive to the extent that they lawfully may do so, all right to have the Projects or any portion thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure sale thereof.

(d) No Partnership, Joint Venture, Agency or Fiduciary Duty. Neither this Agreement nor any other Workout Document is intended or shall be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture between Borrower Parties, on the one hand, and KCCI on the other hand; and the relationship of KCCI to Borrower Parties shall be solely that of "lender" and "borrower", and no fiduciary duty of KCCI to Borrower Parties or any of them, of any nature whatsoever, exists or will hereafter exist. In no event shall KCCI be liable for debts or claims accruing or arising against Borrower Parties or any of them. KCCI neither undertakes nor assumes any responsibility or duty to any Borrower Party or to another person with respect to the Collateral or the financial condition or operations of any Borrower Party. Any approval, consent or other judgment to be given or made by KCCI under this Agreement may be given, made or withheld by KCCI in its sole discretion. This Agreement grants KCCI certain rights as a creditor such as the right to inspect the Projects, to review the books of Borrower Parties, to approve of certain matters, and so forth. These rights are granted KCCI for the exclusive benefit of KCCI and to preserve KCCI's rights as a creditor loaning money to Borrower, and not for the benefit of Borrower, Company or any other Borrower Party or any other person. Nothing in this Agreement shall require or obligate KCCI to inspect the Projects or the books of any Borrower Party. Borrower Parties acknowledge and agree that:

-53-

(i) they are relying entirely upon their own judgment and are solely responsible with regard to Borrower's operations and financial condition, and all matters relating to the Collateral and Borrower's property, including the conduct of Borrower and its agents and employees;

(ii) Acceptance, approval or review by KCCI of any documents, information, conditions or performance or any other action by KCCI under this Agreement or the Credit Documents are for the purposes of administration of the Loans only and for the sole protection of KCCI, and shall not constitute a representation or warranty by KCCI to Borrower or any other Borrower Party or any other person or be relied upon by any Borrower Party or any other person for any other purpose; and

(iii) KCCI does not owe any duty of care to protect any Borrower Party or any other person for any loss, damage, liability or claim of any kind as a result of any negligent, faulty, inadequate or defective design, building, construction of Borrower's property, or any negligent or wrongful conduct of Borrower or any of its employees or occurrence or the improper application of all or any portion of the Loans.

(e) Predecessors, Successors or Assigns; Survival of Terms. Whenever in this Agreement or any of the other Workout Documents any party is named or referred to, the heirs, executors, legal representatives, predecessors, successors, successors-in-title and assigns of such parties shall be included, and all covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and the other Workout Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective heirs, executors, legal representatives, predecessors, successors, successors-in-title and assigns, whether so expressed or not and shall survive a foreclosure sale or other exercise of rights under any one or more of the Credit Documents.

(f) Construction of Agreement. Each party acknowledges that it has participated in the negotiation of this Agreement and the other Workout Documents, and no provision of this Agreement and the other Workout Documents shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto or thereto by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party having or being deemed to have structured, dictated or drafted such provision. Borrower Parties, and each of them, at all times have had access to an attorney in the negotiation of the terms of and in the preparation and execution of this Agreement and the other Workout Documents, and Borrower Parties, and each of them, has had the opportunity to review and analyze this Agreement and the other Workout Documents for a sufficient period of time prior to the execution and delivery thereof. No representations or warranties have been made by or on behalf of KCCI, or relied upon by Borrower Parties, or any of them, pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Workout Documents and all prior statements, representations and warranties, if any, are totally superseded and merged into this Agreement and the other Workout Documents. All terms of this Agreement and the other Workout Documents were negotiated at arm's length and were prepared and executed without fraud, duress, undue influence or coercion of any kind exerted by any of the parties upon the others.

-54-

(g) Invalid Provision to Affect No Others. If any clause or provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future law by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement will not be affected thereby. It is the intention of the parties that if any such provision is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, there shall be added in lieu thereof a provision as similar in terms to that provision as is possible which will be legal, valid and enforceable.

(h) No Admissions. Borrower Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the waivers, estoppels and releases contained in this Agreement and the other Workout Documents shall not be construed as an admission of wrongdoing, liability or culpability on the part of KCCI, or as an admission by KCCI of the existence of any claims of any of Borrower Parties against KCCI.

(i) Third Parties Beneficiary. All conditions of the obligations of KCCI and Borrower Parties hereunder are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of KCCI and Borrower Parties and their respective successors and assigns, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions or obligations in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that KCCI or Borrower Parties will refuse to act in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof, and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by KCCI or Borrower Parties, as the case may be, at any time if in their sole discretion they deem it desirable to do so.

(j) Notices. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Credit Documents, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telegraphic, telex, facsimile transmission or cable communication), signed by the party giving such notice or election, and mailed, telegraphed, telexed, transmitted, cabled or delivered, as follows:

(k) Governing Law. This Agreement involves multiple real properties located in a number of different jurisdictions, and multiple parties located in a number of different jurisdictions. In light of such factors and the fact that the principal place of business of KCCI is presently located in Cleveland, Ohio, the parties have determined that this Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the law of the State of Ohio, and that it would be appropriate for Borrower Parties to expressly submit to the jurisdiction of certain courts sited in the State of Ohio. Accordingly: THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF OHIO. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IF ANY OTHER WORKOUT DOCUMENT PROVIDES THAT THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION SHALL GOVERN SUCH WORKOUT DOCUMENT IN WHOLE OR IN PART, THEN THE CHOICE OF LAW MADE IN SUCH WORKOUT DOCUMENT SHALL GOVERN THAT WORKOUT DOCUMENT. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER PARTIES HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY CLAIM TO ASSERT THAT THE LAW OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF OHIO GOVERNS THIS AGREEMENT AND (EXCEPT AS AFORESAID) ANY OTHER WORKOUT DOCUMENT.

(l) Headings. The headings of the several sections and other portions of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

(m) Modifications. The terms of this Agreement and the other Workout Documents may not be changed, modified, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument or instruments in writing, signed by the party against whom the enforcement of the change, modification, waiver, discharge or termination is asserted.

(n) Time of Essence. It is specifically agreed that time is of the essence with respect to this Agreement and the other Workout Documents and that the waiver of the rights or options, or obligations secured hereby, shall not at any time thereafter be held to be abandonment of such rights.

(o) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

(p) Meaning of Best Knowledge. Whenever a representation or warranty herein is made by Borrower Parties, or any of them, to the "best knowledge" of such party, "best knowledge" shall be deemed to mean the actual knowledge of the party making the representation or warranty and shall also be deemed to impose upon the party making such representation or warranty a duty to make inquiry of such of the other Borrower Parties or Affiliates as are reasonably likely to have actual knowledge of the subject matter to which such representation or warranty relates.

-57-

(q) Exhibits. The Exhibits and Schedules referred to in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference thereto and are an integral part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein.

(r) Survival. The terms, provisions, covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of Borrower Parties and KCCI under this Agreement and the other Workout Documents shall expressly survive any foreclosure action, any sale of the Projects pursuant to such foreclosure action, the execution and delivery of the Workout Documents, any execution and delivery of the Transfer Documents and the consummation of any or all of the transactions provided for in this Agreement or contemplated hereby and provided for in or contemplated by the Transfer Documents and the Workout Documents.

(s) No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, consultants and other professional persons (including the firms or other entities on behalf of which any such person may act) retained by KCCI with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Workout Documents shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of KCCI, and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to Borrower Parties, or to any other person, with respect to any matters within the scope of such representation or related to their activities in connection with such representation. Borrower Parties agree not to assert any claim or counterclaim against any such persons with regard to such matters, all such claims and counterclaims, now existing or hereafter arising, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseeable, being hereby waived, released or forever discharged.

-58-

(t) CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; VENUE. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER WORKOUT DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUYAHOGA COUNTY, OHIO, OR OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF BORROWER PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. BORROWER PARTIES HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO BORROWER PARTIES AT THEIR RESPECTIVE ADDRESSES FOR NOTICES SET FORTH ABOVE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF KCCI TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST BORROWER PARTIES IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. BORROWER PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION WHICH EITHER MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER WORKOUT DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO ABOVE AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

(u) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER WORKOUT DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.
