If final prorations cannot be made at Closing for any item being prorated under this Section 2.2, Buyer and Seller agree to allocate such items on a fair and equitable basis as soon as invoices or bills are available and applicable reconciliation have been completed, with final adjustment to be made as soon as reasonably possible after the Closing (but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing, except that adjustments arising from any tax protest shall not be subject to such ninety (90) day limitation, but shall be made as soon as reasonably possible), to the effect that income and expenses are received and paid by the parties on an accrual basis with respect to their period of ownership. Payments in connection with the final adjustment shall be due no later than ninety (90) days after the Closing, except that adjustments arising from any tax protest shall not be subject to such 90-day limitation, but shall be made as soon as reasonably possible. Seller shall have reasonable access to, and the right to inspect and audit, Buyer’s books to confirm the final prorations for a period of one (1) year after the Closing.

2.3. Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Assets in the manner set forth in Exhibit 2.3 attached hereto (the “Allocation”). The parties to this Agreement agree that the Allocation shall be used by them for all purposes including tax, reimbursement and other purposes.

2.4. Accounts Receivable.

(1) Seller is not selling, and shall retain all right, title and interest in and to all unpaid accounts receivable with respect to the Facility which relate to the period prior to the Closing Date, including, but not limited to, any accounts receivable arising from rate adjustments which relate to the period prior to the Closing Date even if such adjustments occur after the Closing Date (“Seller’s A/R”). Buyer (i) shall not interfere with any of Seller’s rights with respect to the Seller’s A/R, including but not limited to, the right to collect the same and to enforce any and all of Seller’s rights with respect to Seller’s A/R; provided the Seller shall not initiate any litigation for collections against parties who continue to be residents of the Facility after Closing without Buyer’s consent, and (ii) agrees that if it receives any proceeds with respect to the Seller’s A/R, Buyer will hold such proceeds in trust for Seller and shall promptly turn over those proceeds to Seller without demand, in the form received.

(2) Within ten (10) business days following the Closing Date, Seller shall provide Buyer with a schedule setting forth by patient its outstanding accounts receivable with respect to the Facility as of the Closing Date.

(3) In furtherance and not in limitation of the requirements set forth in Section 2.4, payments received by Buyer from and after the Closing Date from third party payors, including but not limited to Medicare, Medicaid, managed care and health insurance, shall be handled as follows:

(a) If such payments specifically indicate on the accompanying remittance advice, or the parties otherwise agree, that they relate to the period prior to the Closing Date, the payments (if received by Buyer) shall be forwarded to Seller by Buyer, along with the applicable remittance advice, promptly, but in no event more than five (5) business days, after receipt thereof;

(b) If such payments indicate on the accompanying remittance advice, or the parties otherwise agree, that they relate to the period on or after the Closing Date, they shall be retained by Buyer if received by Buyer, and paid to Buyer promptly but in no event later than five (5) business days, if received by Seller; and

(c) If the period(s) for which such payments are made is not indicated on the accompanying remittance advice, and the parties are unable to agree as to the periods for which such payments relate, the parties shall assume that each payment received within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date relates to the oldest outstanding unpaid receivables for reimbursement and, based on such assumption, the portion thereof which relates to the period on and after the Closing Date shall be retained by Buyer and the balance shall be remitted to Seller promptly, but in no event more than five (5) business days, after receipt thereof. After said ninety (90) day period,

such payments which fail to designate the period to which they relate shall be first applied to current balances with any excess applied to reduce pre-Closing balances and, based on such assumption, the portion thereof which relates to the post-Closing period shall be retained by or promptly (within five (5) business days) remitted to Buyer and the balance shall be retained by or promptly (within five (5) business days) remitted to Seller.

(4) Any payments received within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date from or on behalf of private pay patients with outstanding balances as of the Closing Date which fail to designate the period to which they relate, will first be applied to reduce the patients’ pre-Closing Date balances owed to Seller, with any excess applied to reduce any balances due for services rendered by Buyer after the Closing Date.

(5) In the event the parties mutually determine that they misapplied any payment hereunder, or any remittance was made to the wrong party, the party that erroneously received the payment shall remit it to the other party promptly, but in no event more than five (5) business days, after the determination of misapplication is made.

(6) The obligations of the parties to forward the accounts receivable payments pursuant to this Section 2.4 are absolute and unconditional and irrespective of any circumstances whatsoever which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge, offset, counterclaim or defense of the parties, the right to assert any of which is hereby waived.

2.5. Transfer of Resident Trust Funds.

(1) Upon execution of this Agreement, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a current true, correct, and complete accounting and inventory (properly reconciled) of any resident trust funds and residents’ property held by Seller in trust for residents at the Facility (collectively the “Resident Trust Funds”). Not less than ten (10) days prior to Closing, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer an updated true, correct and complete accounting and inventory (properly reconciled) of the Resident Trust Funds.

(2) As of the Closing Date, Seller hereby agrees to transfer to Buyer the Resident Trust Funds and Buyer hereby agrees that it will accept such Resident Trust Funds in trust for the residents/responsible parties and be solely accountable to the residents/responsible parties for such Resident Trust Funds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.

(3) Within five (5) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare a final reconciliation comparing the actual Resident Trust Fund balance on the Closing Date to the amount of the Resident Trust Funds transferred to Buyer at the Closing and to the extent the former exceeds

the latter, Seller shall remit such excess to Buyer or to the extent the latter exceeds the former, Buyer shall remit such excess to Seller.

(4) Seller shall have no responsibility to the applicable resident/responsible party and regulatory authorities with respect to any Resident Trust Funds delivered to Buyer.

ARTICLE 8. BUYER’S CONDITIONS TO CLOSE

The obligations of Buyer under this Agreement are subject to the satisfaction, on or prior to Closing, of the following conditions (which may be waived in writing by Buyer in whole or in part):

8.1. Representations and Warranties True at Closing; Compliance with Agreement. The representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) or in any certificate or document delivered to Buyer in connection herewith, shall be deemed to have been made again at Closing and shall then be true in all material respects; and Seller shall have performed and complied with all material covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by them prior to or at Closing.

8.2. No Loss, Damage of Destruction. In the event there is any damage to or loss of any of the Assets (whether by fire, theft, vandalism or other cause or casualty), the terms of Sections 5.4 and 5.5 shall have been complied with.

8.3. Regulatory Approvals. Buyer shall have obtained or have reasonable assurance that it will obtain (at its own cost) (a) certification for participation in the Medicaid Programs of the State under a new provider agreement and provider number, and (b) all other licenses, permits, approvals or certificates necessary for the ownership and operation of the Facility; provided that Buyer has promptly made application for such certifications, consents, licenses, etc. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it shall not be entitled to use Seller’s Medicaid provider account numbers for the Facility, which shall remain the sole and exclusive property of the Seller.

8.4. No Action/Proceeding. No action or proceeding before a court or any other governmental agency or body shall have been instituted to restrain or prohibit the transaction herein contemplated, and no governmental agency or body or other entity shall have taken any other action as a result of which to proceed with the transactions hereunder constitute a violation of law. The waiting periods specified under the Antitrust Improvements Act with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have lapsed or been terminated.

8.5. Material Adverse Change. There shall not have occurred a material adverse change with respect to the assets, financial condition or operations of the Facility, taken as a whole. Expressly excluded from the definition of “material adverse change” hereunder are changes (a) generally affecting the adult care and assisted living industries, including changes due to actual or proposed changes in law or regulations, (b) that result from political or economic turmoil, or (c) that result from the announcement or pendency of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

Buyer shall be satisfied in its sole but reasonable discretion that the nursing home license, and Medicare/Medicaid certification, for the operation of the Facility is in substantial compliance and valid and in good standing, and not subject to any regulatory or remedial conditions or restrictions nor otherwise subject to or in risk of suspension or termination. In the event Closing cannot occur due to the inability of Buyer to receive the licenses or certifications as a result of lack of the Facility’s substantial compliance with Medicare or Medicaid requirements for skilled nursing facilities, then Seller agrees to use its best efforts to correct such issues and the Closing Date will be extended for such additional time as may be reasonably necessary for such corrective measures.

8.8. Title Work and Surveys; Defects and Cure; Title Policy; Environmental Inspections. The obligations of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be

subject to the fulfillment prior to or at Closing of each of the following conditions, any and all of which may be waived, in whole or in part, by Buyer to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(1) Title Work. Seller has furnished to Buyer copies of the existing title insurance policies insuring title to the Real Estate listed on Exhibit 8.8(1) attached hereto (the “Existing Title Work”). Within thirty (30) days following the date of this Agreement, Buyer may, at Buyer’s option and expense, either obtain a title opinion (“Title Opinion”) or a commitment for an owner’s policy of title insurance (“Title Commitment”) from a title insurance company acceptable to Buyer (the “Title Company”) in the current ALTA form, in which the Title Company shall agree to insure, for the amount of the Purchase Price allocated to the Real Estate merchantable fee simple title to the Real Estate, and all easements benefitting or serving the Real Estate, in the name of the Buyer (the Title Opinion and/or the Title Commitment shall be referred to as the “New Title Work”). Buyer shall furnish Seller with copies of any New Title Work.

(2) Survey. Seller has furnished to Buyer copies of the existing land title survey of the Real Estate listed on Exhibit 8.8(1) (the “Existing Survey”). Within thirty (30) days following the date of this Agreement, Buyer may, at Buyer’s option and expense, obtain an update to the Existing Survey or (ii) a current, as-built survey for the Real Estate (the “New Survey”) meeting the 2011 Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Survey of comparable properties, including such Table A optional items as Buyer elects. The New Survey shall contain the surveyor’s ALTA/ACSM certification to Buyer, Seller, Lender (if applicable), title agent and the Title Company. Buyer shall furnish Seller with copies of any New Survey.

(3) Defects and Cure. The Existing Title Work, the New Title Work, the Existing Survey and the New Survey are collectively referred to as “Title Evidence”. Buyer shall notify Seller in writing within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the last of the Title Evidence of any claims, encumbrances, exceptions or defects disclosed in the Title Evidence, other than Permitted Exceptions, to which Buyer objects (the “Defects”). For purposes of this Agreement, any encumbrance, exception or other matter reflected on any Existing Title Work or Existing Survey, other than mortgages or liens to be released at Closing, shall be deemed a Permitted Exception. Seller, at its sole cost and expense, may elect to cure any such Defects on or before Closing (“cure” shall include, but is not limited to, an endorsement by the Title Company reasonably acceptable to Buyer or its lender, either eliminating the Defect, insuring over the Defect or insuring against the effect of the Defect) or Seller may elect to not cure the Defect and shall give written notice to Buyer within ten (10) days of its receipt of Buyer’s notice of Defects of its decision. Within ten (10) days of Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s election not to cure any Defects, Buyer may, at its election, (i) waive such uncured Defects and close, or (ii) terminate this Agreement. If Seller fails to timely give such notice, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure the Defects, whereupon Buyer may waive such Defects and close or may terminate this Agreement as provided in the immediately preceding sentence.

(4) Title Policy. At the Closing, Buyer may obtain a current ALTA Form Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (the “Title Policy”) for the Real Estate issued by the Title Company. The Title Policy shall be issued as of the Closing Date in an amount equal to the portion of the Purchase Price being allocated to the Real Estate and shall insure to Buyer good and marketable fee simple title to the Real Estate, subject only to (i) Permitted Exceptions and (ii) taxes for the current and subsequent years “not yet due and payable.” At Buyer’s request, the Title Policy shall have all standard and general exceptions deleted so as to afford full “extended form coverage” and shall contain such available endorsements as Buyer or Buyer’s lender shall reasonably require in connection with its review of the Title Evidence. Seller shall execute such certificates and affidavits as may be reasonably necessary in connection with the issuance of the Title Policy as described in this Section 8.8 (4). Buyer shall pay all premiums, costs and expenses of the Title Policy, including the premiums, costs and expenses of any mortgage title insurance required of any lender of Buyer.

(5) Environmental Inspections. Seller has provided Buyer with the Existing Environmental Reports listed on Exhibit 8.7(5) attached hereto (the “Existing Environmental Reports”). For a period of thirty (30) days following the execution of this Agreement (the “Environmental Inspection Period”), Buyer and Buyer’s agents, representatives and contractors shall have the right to enter upon the Real Estate for the purpose of conducting such tests, assessments, evaluations and investigations as Buyer may determine in its sole discretion, in order to evaluate and determine the current environmental condition of the Real Estate (“Buyer’s Environmental Inspections”), including without limitation (i) a Phase I environmental assessment of the Real Estate or (ii) updates of the existing Environmental Reports in order to bring them current under the AAI standards for CERCLA, with the Buyer being added as a party to the Existing Environmental Reports by amendment thereto or by a reliance letter reasonably satisfactory to Buyer. Within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the Environmental Inspection Period, Buyer shall give written notice to Seller if Buyer has identified any environmental condition not shown by or reflected in the Existing Environmental Reports that constitutes a breach of Section 3.10 (“Environmental Conditions”). Buyer shall provide Seller with a copy of Buyer’s Environmental Inspections reflecting such Environmental Conditions. If Buyer gives notice of any Environmental Conditions to Seller, and if such Environmental Conditions constitute a breach of Section 3.10, then Seller (i) may elect, at its sole cost and expense, to cure or remedy such Environmental Conditions to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction on or before Closing or (ii) may elect not to cure or remedy such Environmental Conditions, and shall give written notice of its election to Buyer within twenty (20) days after Buyer’s notice of Environmental Conditions. Within twenty (20) days of Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s notice that Seller has elected not to cure or remedy any Environmental Conditions, Buyer may elect to (i) waive such Environmental Conditions and close or (ii) elect to terminate this Agreement. If Seller fails to timely give notice of its election as herein provided, Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to cure or remedy the Environmental Conditions, whereupon Buyer

may elect to waive such Environmental Conditions and close or terminate this Agreement as provided in the immediately preceding sentence.

8.9. Admission Agreements. Buyer and Seller will enter into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form attached hereto, pursuant to which Seller will assign to Buyer, and Buyer will assume all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to and obligations arising after the Closing Date under the admissions agreements with the persons who are residing at the Facility on the Closing Date (“Assigned Admission Agreements”). Any claims arising under the Assigned Admission Agreements prior to the Effective Date shall be and remain the liability and obligation of Seller as provided in Sections 1.3.2 and 11.2.

ARTICLE 11. SURVIVAL OF PROVISIONS AND INDEMNIFICATION

11.1. Survival. The covenants, obligations, representations and warranties of Buyer and Seller contained in this Agreement, or in any certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, shall be deemed to be material and to have been relied upon by the parties hereto notwithstanding any investigation prior to Closing, and shall survive Closing for a period of two (2) years (except as provided in Section 5.3(3) above) and shall not be merged into any documents delivered in connection with Closing.

11.2. Indemnification by Seller. Subject to Section 11.4, Seller shall promptly indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Buyer, the directors, officers, shareholders, employees and agents of Buyer, and the Assets against any and all losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable costs of investigation, court costs and legal fees) and other damages resulting from: (1) any breach by Seller of any of the covenants, obligations, representations or warranties or breach or untruth of any representation, warranty, fact or conclusion contained in this Agreement or any certificate or document of Seller delivered pursuant to this Agreement; (2) any liability of Seller not expressly assumed by Buyer pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof; (3) the determination by Medicare, Medicaid, any fiscal intermediary, or any federal or state governmental authority that any amounts paid to Seller by Medicare, Medicaid, any fiscal intermediary, or any federal or state governmental authority for any services provided by the Facility prior to the Effective Date resulted in an overpayment or other determination by Medicare, Medicaid, any fiscal intermediary, or any federal or state governmental authority that funds previously paid by Medicare, Medicaid, any fiscal intermediary, or any federal or state governmental authority to Seller must be repaid, which determination results

in (i) an offset against amounts owed to Buyer, or (ii) any penalty, sanction or repayment obligations being assessed against Buyer and (4) any claim (whether or not disclosed herein) that is brought or asserted by any third party(s) against Buyer arising out of the ownership, licensing, operation, or conduct of the Facility or Assets or the conduct of any of Seller’s employees, agents or independent contractors, relating to all periods of time prior to and through Closing.

11.3. Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to Section 11.4, Buyer shall promptly indemnify, defend, and hold Seller harmless against any and all losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable cost of investigation, court costs and legal fees) and other damages resulting from: (1) any breach by Buyer of any of its covenants, obligations, representations or warranties or breach or untruth of any representation, warranty, fact or conclusion contained in this Agreement or any certificate or document of Buyer delivered pursuant to this Agreement; (2) any claim which is brought or asserted by any third party(s) against Seller for failure to pay or perform any of the Assumed Liabilities; and (3) subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, any claim that is brought or asserted by any third party(s) against Seller arising out of or relating to the ownership, licensing, operation or conduct of the Facility or Assets or the conduct of any of Buyer’s employees, agents or independent contractors, relating to all periods of time subsequent to Closing.

11.4. Procedure for Indemnification.

(3) Notice. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of written or actual notice of any action or claim (the “Claim”) as to which it asserts a right to indemnification, the party seeking indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnitee”) shall give written notice thereof (the “Notice”) to the person from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnitor”), provided that the failure of the Indemnitee to give the Indemnitor notice within the specified number of days shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any of its obligations hereunder, but may create a cause of action for breach for damages directly attributable to such delay.

(4) Third Party Claims.

(a) If any claim for indemnification by Indemnitee arises out of a Claim by a person other than Indemnitee, the Indemnitor shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, by written notice to the Indemnitee within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Notice. Indemnitor shall thereupon undertake to take all steps or proceedings to defeat or compromise any such Claim, including retaining counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs, fees and expenses with respect to any such Claim shall be borne by Indemnitor. If the Indemnitor assumes the defense of a Claim, it shall not settle such Claim unless such settlement includes as an unconditional term thereof a release by the claimant of the Indemnitee, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee and except that Indemnitor shall not, without the prior written consent of Indemnitee, directly or indirectly require Indemnitee to take or refrain from taking any action,

or make any public statement, or consent to any settlement, which it reasonably considers to be against its interest. Indemnitee shall have the right to participate at its own expense, in such proceedings, but control of such proceedings shall remain exclusively with Indemnitor.

(b) If the Indemnitor shall fail to notify the Indemnitee of its desire to assume the defense of any such claim or action within the prescribed period of time, then the Indemnitee may assume such defense in such manner as it may deem appropriate, and the Indemnitor shall be bound by any determinations made or any settlements thereof effected by the Indemnitee. The Indemnitor shall be permitted, at its own expense, to join in such defense and to employ its own counsel but control of such proceedings shall remain exclusively with Indemnitee.

(c) Indemnitor and Indemnitee agree to make available to each other, their counsel and other representatives, all information and documents reasonably available to them reasonably requested by the other which relate to any such claim or action, and to render to each other such reasonable assistance as may be reasonably requested in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of such claim or action, but any costs or expenses related thereto shall be borne by Indemnitor; and provided that any failure (after written notice with specificity and an opportunity to cure) shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any of its obligations hereunder but may create a cause of action for breach for damages directly attributable to such failure.

(5) Straddle Resident Claims. Any claim by a resident relating to professional negligence or similar matters involving a resident of either Facility served both prior to and subsequent to the Closing Date will be the responsibility of either Buyer or Seller in accordance with the following guidelines: (a) if it is a claim in which the incident giving rise to liability arose prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall be obligated for such claim and shall pay the defense expenses and damages assessed; (b) if it is a claim in which the incident giving rise to liability arose subsequent to the Closing Date, then Buyer shall be obligated for such claim and shall pay the defense expenses and damages assessed; and (c) in the event that it is not clear whether or not the incident giving rise to liability occurred prior to or subsequent to the Closing Date, then Seller and Buyer will jointly defend the case and each will fully cooperate with the other in such defense. In the event of any joint defense hereunder, the parties will (x) attempt in good faith to agree upon a single counsel to represent both parties in the defense of such claim, and (y) share equally in all costs incurred and damages assessed against the parties in connection with such claim. Once the case is resolved, if Seller and Buyer cannot agree to the allocation of both liability and expenses, then the issue shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Health Lawyers Association.

(6) Payment of Claims. Amounts payable by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee shall be payable by the Indemnitor as incurred by the Indemnitee. In the event Indemnitor fails to pay, timely and fully, any such amounts, Indemnitee may pay such Claim. In such event, the

Indemnitee may recover from the Indemnitor, in an addition to the amount so paid, reasonable attorneys’ fees in connection with the enforcement of any payment due hereunder.

(7) Limitations on Indemnification. No Indemnitor shall have any liability for any Claims hereunder until the total of all Claims against such Indemnitor (Claims incurred by Sterling pursuant to the Operations Transfer Agreement shall count towards total Claims incurred by Seller for purposes of the subsection, and Claims incurred by Buyer under the Operations Transfer Agreement shall count towards total Claims incurred by Buyer for purposes of the subsection) exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Threshold”) after which Indemnitor shall be liable for Claims above said Threshold. No claim for indemnification may be asserted hereunder unless the party seeking indemnification gives the other party notice of such claim on or before the second anniversary of the Closing Date. The total aggregate amount of claims to which any Indemnitor shall be subject hereunder shall be capped at Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000.00); provided, however, that for purposes of calculating the aggregate Claims against Buyer, claims against American Health Care Management, LLC, an affiliate of Buyer, under the Operations Transfer Agreement shall be included, and for the purposes of calculating the aggregate Claims against Seller, claims against Sterling under the Operations Transfer Agreement shall be included. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Threshold and maximum liability amounts shall not apply to claims against Seller for fraud or arising from any cost reports filed by Seller, which shall be and remain the obligation of Seller from first dollar and without limitation.

(8) Damages. Neither party, nor any of its affiliates, shall have any liability hereunder for consequential, incidental, special or punitive damages.

(9) Exclusive Remedy. The sole and exclusive remedy for any damages incurred by either party as a result of any breach of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the other party contained in this Agreement shall be the remedies contained in this Article 11.

ARTICLE 12. MISCELLANEOUS

12.1. Assignment.

Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any rights, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, or of any other right, power or remedy; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy preclude any further or other exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.
