ARTICLE II
Amended Tranche A Loan; Amended Note; Amended Note Closing;
Amended Note Closing Date; Facility Fees
2.1. Amended Tranche A Loan; Amended Note. On December 14, 1999
pursuant to the Original Loan Agreement, Lender disbursed to Company the sum of
Fourteen Million Dollars ($14,000,000.00) in principal amount evidenced by a
promissory note in the form of Exhibit B to the Original Loan Agreement (the
"Original Note"). Under and subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Company shall borrow from Lender an additional Twenty Million Dollars
($20,000,000.00) (the "Additional Advance"), or a total of Thirty Four Million
Dollars ($34,000,000.00) (the "Amended Tranche A Loan"). At the time of
disbursement of the Additional Advance, the Original Note shall be marked
"Cancelled" by the Lender and returned to Company and Company shall execute and
deliver to Lender a promissory note in the form of
4
Exhibit C attached hereto, the terms and conditions of which are incorporated in
and made a part of this Agreement (the "Amended Note"). Fifteen Million Dollars
($15,000,000.00) of the Additional Advance shall be disbursed directly to
Company and Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) thereof shall be paid to Xxxxx
& Xxxxx as escrow agent pursuant to the escrow agreement in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit D (the "Escrow Agreement"). This is not a revolving credit
agreement and any part of the principal of the Amended Note which has been
repaid from time to time may not be reborrowed.
2.2. Closing; Closing Date. The closing of the Additional Advance (the
"Amended Note Closing") shall occur at 10:00 a.m. at the offices of Company on
or before February 1, 2000 or such other time and place as the parties may agree
in writing (the "Amended Note Closing Date") upon satisfaction of the terms and
conditions to Lender's obligations to make the Additional Advance as set forth
in Article IV, below.
2.3. Fees. In addition to the fees previously paid pursuant to the
Original Loan Agreement, on or before the Amended Note Closing, the Company
agrees to pay to the Lender a facility fee of Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars
($800,000.00). On each monthly anniversary of the Amended Note Closing Date,
starting with the third monthly anniversary, Company shall pay Lender an
additional facility fee equal to Thirteen Thousand Three Hundred Thirty Three
Dollars ($13,333.00), multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
amount by which the outstanding principal amount of the Amended Note at such
date exceeds Fourteen Million Dollars ($14,000,000.00) and the denominator of
which is One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00). None of such facility fees shall
be prorated in the event of prepayment of the Amended Note. If not paid prior to
the Amended Note Closing, Company agrees that Lender may deduct the facility fee
due on or before the Amended Note Closing from the proceeds of the Additional
Advance advanced directly to Company. If any facility fee is not paid when due,
interest shall accrue thereon at the Default Interest Rate, as defined in
Section 3.1(a).
ARTICLE III
Terms of Amended Tranche A Loan and Amended Note
3.1. Interest Rate; Payment; Usury.
(a) Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement: (i)
during the period from and including December 14, 1999 to, but not
including, the Amended Note Closing Date, the Amended Tranche A Loan
shall bear interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, (ii)
during the period from and including the Amended Note Closing Date to,
but not including, the date on which all outstanding principal and
accrued and unpaid interest and facility fees on the Amended Tranche A
Loan have been paid in full, principal amount of the Amended Tranche A
Loan outstanding from time to time shall bear interest at the rate of
ten percent (10%) per annum. During any period that an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, interest on principal amount of
the Amended Tranche A Loan outstanding from time to time shall accrue
at a rate equal to fifteen percent per
5
annum (15%) (the "Default Interest Rate"). Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall the interest rate
on the Amended Tranche A Loan, including the Default Interest Rate,
exceed the highest rate permitted by applicable law. Interest on the
Amended Tranche A Loan, including interest at the Default Interest
Rate, shall be based on a 360 day year and interest shall accrue and be
payable for the actual number of calendar days elapsed. Interest on the
principal amount outstanding from time to time shall be payable monthly
in arrears beginning on March 31, 2000 and on the last day of each
month thereafter until the principal and all accrued interest and
facility fees have been paid in full.
(b) It is the intention of the Company and Lender to conform
strictly to applicable usury laws now or hereafter in force, and any
interest payable under this Agreement or the Amended Note shall be
subject to reduction to an amount not to exceed the maximum
non-usurious amount for commercial loans allowed under such applicable
usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having
jurisdiction over such matters. In the event such interest (whether
designated as interest, service charges, points, or otherwise) does
exceed the maximum legal rate, it shall be (i) canceled automatically
to the extent that such interest exceeds the maximum legal rate; (ii)
if already paid, at the option of the Holder, either be rebated to the
Company or credited on the principal amount of the Amended Tranche A
Loan; or (iii) if the Amended Tranche A Loan has been prepaid in full,
then such excess shall be rebated to the Company. It is further agreed,
without limitation of the foregoing, that all calculations of the rate
of interest contracted for, charged, or received under this Agreement
and the Amended Note that are made for the purpose of determining
whether such rate exceeds the maximum legal rate, shall be made, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, by amortizing, prorating,
allocating, and spreading throughout the full stated term of the
Amended Tranche A Loan (and any extensions of the term thereof that may
be hereafter granted) all such interest at any time contracted for,
charged, or received from the Company or otherwise by the Holder so
that the rate of interest on account of the Amended Tranche A Loan, as
so calculated is uniform throughout the term thereof. If the Company is
exempt or hereafter becomes exempt from applicable usury statutes or
for any other reason the rate of interest to be charged on the Amended
Tranche A Loan is not limited by law, none of the provisions of this
paragraph shall be construed so as to limit or reduce the interest or
other consideration payable under this Agreement or the Amended Note or
under the instrument securing payment thereof. The terms and provisions
of this paragraph shall control and supersede every other provision of
all agreements between the parties hereto.
3.2. Maturity. Unless the same shall become due earlier as a result of
acceleration of the maturity, the Amended Tranche A Loan shall mature on the
first anniversary of the Amended Note Closing Date at which time the outstanding
principal balance of the Amended Tranche A Loan and all accrued and unpaid
interest and facility fees shall become due and payable.
6
3.3. Prepayments; Partial Releases.
(a) The Company may from time to time prepay the Amended
Tranche A Loan, in whole or in part, at any time. Any partial
prepayment shall be applied first to interest which is accrued and
unpaid, including interest on any delinquent facility fees, then to the
payment of any facility fees that are due and payable and then to
principal.
(b) Attached hereto as Schedule 3.3 is a schedule of each
release price (the "Release Prices") applicable to each parcel of
Additional Collateral Real Estate. Upon payment by the Company of the
Release Price applicable to any particular parcel of Additional
Collateral Real Estate and during such time as no Event of Default is
then outstanding, Holder shall cause any and all mortgages, deeds of
trust, assignments of leases and rents, UCCs and other security
documents encumbering such Additional Collateral Real Estate to be
released and marked satisfied of record. No such partial release shall
limit or impair the right of Lender in any other collateral pledged
hereunder.
3.4. Manner of Payment. The Company shall make payments in respect of
the Amended Tranche A Loan (including principal and interest) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account specified by the Holder.
3.5. Events of Default. Each of the following constitutes an "Event of
Default":
(i) default for five (5) days in the payment when due of
interest or any facility fee on the Amended Tranche A Loan;
(ii) default in payment when due of the principal of the
Amended Tranche A Loan;
(iii) failure of the Company to pay on or before the due date
thereof any construction or other costs and expenses with respect to
the Additional Collateral Real Estate required in order for such
properties to receive governmental approval for occupancy as assisted
living facilities, elder care facilities or Alzheimer care units;
(iv) failure by the Company for 15 days after notice from the
Holder to comply with the provisions described under Article VI hereof;
provided, however, if the curing of such failure may not reasonably be
accomplished within such time frame, the Company shall have such
additional time as is necessary to effect such cure (not to exceed 30
days);
(v) failure by the Company for 30 days after notice from the
Holder to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in this
Agreement or the Amended Note; provided, however, if the curing of such
failure may not reasonably be accomplished within such time frame, the
Company shall have such additional time as is necessary to effect such
cure (not to exceed 60 days);
7
(vi) any of the representations or warranties of the Company
set forth in the Original Loan Agreement or this Agreement or
incorporated herein by reference or set forth in any statement or
schedule delivered pursuant to the Original Loan Agreement or this
Agreement was untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the
date of execution of the Original Loan Agreement or this Agreement,
respectively or as of the Amended Note Closing Date as if made on such
date;
(vii) default by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under
any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued
or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether such Indebtedness now
exists, or is created after the date hereof, which default results in
the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity and
the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal
amount of any other such Indebtedness the maturity of which has been so
accelerated, aggregates $5,000,000 or more;
(viii) failure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to
pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $1,000,000, which
judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 45 days;
(ix) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to or
within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law:
(a) commences a voluntary case,
(b) consents to the entry of an order for relief
against it in an involuntary case,
(c) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it
or for all or substantially all of its property,
(d) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its
creditors, or
(e) generally is not paying its debts as they become

Subsidiaries or for all or substantially all of the property
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or
8
(c) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries;
and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60
consecutive days.
3.6. Acceleration.
(a) Declaration of Acceleration. If any Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the Holder may, upon notice to the Company,
declare the Amended Tranche A Loan to be due and payable immediately;
and upon any such declaration all principal and interest on the Amended
Tranche A Loan shall become immediately due and payable; provided,
however, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events
of bankruptcy or insolvency described in clauses (ix) and (x) of
Section 3.5 hereof, with respect to the Company or any Subsidiary, the
Amended Tranche A Loan shall ipso facto become due and payable without
further action or notice on the part of the Holder.
(b) Rescission. At any time after a declaration of
acceleration with respect to the Amended Tranche A Loan, the Holder
may, in its sole discretion, rescind and cancel such declaration and
its consequences. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
Default or impair any right with respect thereto.
3.7. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing,
the Holder may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal
and interest (including interest at the Default Interest Rate) on the Amended
Tranche A Loan or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Amended
Note or this Agreement. A delay or omission by the Holder in exercising any
right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or
remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All
remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.
3.8. Waiver Of Past Defaults. The Holder may waive any existing Default
or Event of Default and its consequences under this Agreement. Upon any such
waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this
Agreement; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or
impair any right consequent thereon.
3.9. Priorities. Any sums collected by the Holder hereunder and under
the Amended Note shall be applied first to all costs and expenses of collection,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, then to accrued and unpaid interest
(including at the Default Interest Rate to the extent applicable) and then to
principal.

on behalf of Lender, as follows:
(a) Organization and Standing; Issued and Outstanding Shares.
Each of the Company and Holding is duly incorporated and validly
existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and has all requisite
corporate power and authority to own or lease its properties and assets
and to conduct its business as it has been and is proposed to be
conducted. Each of the Company and Holding is qualified to do business
and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so
qualify could have a material adverse effect upon its assets,
properties, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations or
business. Holding has no Subsidiaries other than Purchaser, all of the
issued and outstanding shares of which are owned by Holding. The
Certificate of Incorporation and amendments thereto of each of Holding
and Purchaser are in the form previously provided to Lender and the
issued and outstanding capital stock of Holding is as set forth in
Schedule 5.1(a).
(b) Indebtedness and Contracts of Holding. Except for such
Contracts or Indebtedness as are contemplated hereby or thereby as set
forth on Schedule 5.1(b), Holding has no Indebtedness and is not a
party to any Contracts (whether formal or informal, written or oral,
firm or contingent), other than the pledge by Holding of the capital
stock of Purchaser delivered in connection with the recent financing
provided by GMAC.
(c) Capacity of the Company; Consents; Execution of
Agreements. The Company has the requisite power, authority, and
capacity to enter into this Agreement and the agreements contemplated
hereby and to perform the transactions and obligations to be performed
by the Company hereunder and thereunder. Except as described on
Schedule 5.1(c) hereto, no consent, authorization, approval, license,
permit or order of, or filing with, any Person or Governmental
Authority is required in connection with the execution and delivery of
this Agreement or the performance by the Company of the transactions
and obligations to be performed by it hereunder, except as contemplated
by this Agreement. The failure to obtain any of the consents described
on Schedule 5.1(c) prior to the Amended Note Closing Date will not have
a material adverse effect upon the Company's assets, properties,
liabilities, financial condition, results of operations or business.
The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of the
transactions and obligations contemplated hereby by the Company have
been duly authorized by all requisite action of the Company and
Holding, as applicable. This Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered by a duly authorized officer of the Company and constitutes,
or when executed and delivered will constitute, a valid and legally
binding agreement of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its
12
terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws, both
state and federal, affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights or
remedies in general from time to time in effect and the exercise by
courts of equity powers or their application of principles of public
policy.
(d) Status of Amended Note. The Amended Note to be issued
hereunder, when issued by the Company to the Lender pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, will be duly authorized and validly issued.
(e) Conflicts; Defaults. The execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the execution by Holding of a guaranty of the Amended
Tranche A Loan and the pledge by Company of the shares of Holding to
secure the Company's obligations hereunder and under the Amended Note,
and the performance by the Company and Holding of the transactions and
obligations contemplated hereby and thereby to be performed by each
will not (i) violate, conflict with, or constitute a default under any
of the terms or provisions of its certificate of incorporation or
bylaws, or any provisions of, or result in the acceleration of any
obligation under, any Contract, note, debt instrument, security
agreement, or other instrument to which the Company, Holding or any
other Subsidiary is a party or by which the Company, Holding or any
other Subsidiary or any of their respective assets is bound; (ii)
result in the creation or imposition of any Liens or claims upon the
assets of the Company, Holding or any other Subsidiary or their issued
and outstanding capital stock (except as contemplated by this
Agreement); (iii) constitute a violation of any law, statute, judgment,
decree, order, rule, or regulation of a Governmental Authority
applicable to the Company, Holding or any other Subsidiary; or (iv)
constitute an event which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would
result in any of the foregoing. Neither the Company, Holding or
Purchaser is presently in violation of any provision of its certificate
of incorporation or bylaws. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is
presently in default in any material respect under any of the terms or
provisions of any of its material Contracts, notes, debt instruments,
security agreements, or other instruments, or any order, judgment, or
decree relating to it or its business or by which it or any of its
assets is bound.
(f) Periodic Reports. The Company has timely filed with the
SEC all periodic reports heretofore required to be filed by it pursuant
to the 1934 Act and all such periodic reports (including the financial
statements or information forming a part thereof) are complete and
comply, in all material respects, with the requirements of the SEC
applicable to such periodic reports and financial statements.
(g) Compliance with Laws. The Company is not in violation of,
nor do any of its operations violate in any respect, any statute, law,
or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company,
any of its assets, or the conduct of its business ("Applicable Laws"),
the violation of which reasonably could be anticipated to have a
material adverse effect upon the Company's assets, properties,
liabilities, financial condition, results of operations or business,
and no material expenditures are or, based on
13
present requirements, will be required of the Company in order for it
to comply or remain in compliance with any Applicable Laws.
(h) Litigation. The Company is not a party to any material
legal action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding which is not
adequately described in a periodic report heretofore filed by the
Company with the SEC and, to the best of the Company's knowledge and
belief after due inquiry, there exist no facts or circumstances which
reasonably could be anticipated to result in any such action, suit,
claim, investigation, or proceeding.
(i) Taxes. The Company has prepared and duly and timely filed
with each appropriate Governmental Authority, all material federal,
state, municipal, local and foreign tax returns, information returns
and other reports required to be filed on or before the date of this

Company prior to the date of this Agreement in respect of the periods
covered by such returns and reports, except such taxes as are being
contested in good faith.
(j) Environmental Compliance. The Company and its Subsidiaries
are in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws and
requirements (including permit requirements) relating to the protection
of health or the environment in connection with the ownership,
operation and condition of its properties and business, except where
failure to comply would not have material adverse effect.
(k) Securities Laws. No consent, authorization, approval,
permit, or order of or filing with any Governmental Authority is
required in order for the Company to execute and deliver this Agreement
or to offer, issue, sell, or deliver the Amended Note. Based in part on
the representations of the Lender and under the circumstances
contemplated hereby and under current laws and regulations, the offer,
issuance, sale and delivery of the Amended Note to the Lender is exempt
from the prospectus delivery and registration requirements of the 1933
Act.

they may be a party.
(m) Disclosure. The Company has fully responded to all written
requests for information and has accurately answered, to the best of
the Company's knowledge and belief after due inquiry, all written
questions from the Lender concerning the assets, properties,
liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business and
prospects of the Company, and has not knowingly withheld any facts
relating thereto which it reasonably believed to be material with
respect to the assets, properties, liabilities, financial condition,
results of operations, business or prospects of the Company. No
information in this Agreement, or in any Schedule or Exhibit attached
to this Agreement or delivered to Lender in connection herewith,
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or when considered
together with all such information delivered to the Lender omits
14
to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements
made in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, when
taken as a whole, not misleading. The disclosures made in writing by
the Company in connection with this Agreement do not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact
necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading. There is
no fact or circumstance relating to the Company which materially and
adversely affects or in the future may, in the reasonable business
judgment of the Company, be expected materially and adversely to affect
the same which has not been set forth in this Agreement or the
Schedules hereto.
(n) Changes in Circumstances. Since September 30, 1999, the
Company has not suffered any material adverse change in its assets,
properties, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations,
business or prospects except for (i) the previously announced charge to
be incurred in the fourth quarter of 1999 (the amount of which charge
has not yet been determined or disclosed) and anticipated fourth
quarter loss (ii) the effect on future periods of the Company's
announced reduction in future new development activities (iii) the
effect on future periods of the Company's announced reduction in joint
venture activities and resulting impact on the Company's projected
income and (iv) the possible failure of the Company to comply with
certain financial covenants in effect with respect to existing
lenders/landlords as a result of the foregoing, resulting in the need
for the Company to renegotiate such covenants.
(o) Contracts. Except for this Agreement, the Subscription and
Organizational Agreement and the agreements contemplated hereby and
thereby, the Company has filed all material contracts required to be
filed by Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K under the 1933 Act and the
1934 Act.

by the Company and costs incurred by the Company to the date of this
Agreement for the Additional Collateral Real Estate aggregated not less
than Nineteen Million Seven Hundred Sixty Eight Thousand Eight Hundred
Six Dollars (19,768,806.00) and not in excess of an additional Three
Million Six Hundred Eighty Four Thousand Dollars ($3,684,000.00) is
required to be expended in order to receive governmental approval for
occupancy thereof;

(b) Capacity of the Lender; Execution of Agreement. Lender has
all requisite power, authority, and capacity to enter into this
Agreement, and to perform the transactions and obligations to be
performed by it hereunder. This Agreement has been duly authorized,

binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as
enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,

nature and extent of such circumstance or event;
(iii) simultaneous with the transmission thereof to
Company's shareholders, copies of (or notice from an XXXXX

without limitation the Collateral Real Estate, except to the extent
that compliance with any of the foregoing is then being contested in
good faith by appropriate legal proceedings and with respect to which
adequate financial reserves have been established on the books and
records of the Company and except where the failure to comply would not
have a material adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole.

securities (otherwise than upon the exercise of currently outstanding

convertible debentures) for aggregate proceeds of in excess of $25

co-investment right must be exercised by Lender at the time of
execution of the definitive purchase agreement for the Alterra Equity

any Indebtedness, except:
(i) Indebtedness arising pursuant to this Agreement;
and
(ii) other Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or
hereafter incurred, provided that the sum of all of the
Indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiaries at any time

combinations effected after the date of this Agreement) does
not exceed $1,850,000,000.00.
