SALE OF SHARES
3.1 Best Efforts. The Managing Dealer shall use its best efforts during
the Offering Period to sell or cause to be sold the Shares in such quantities
and to such persons and in accordance with such terms as are set forth in this
Agreement, the Prospectus and the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Managing Dealer shall have no obligation
under this Agreement to purchase any of the Shares for its own account.
3.2 Association of Other Broker-Dealers. The Company hereby
acknowledges and agrees that the Managing Dealer may engage Participating
Brokers to participate in the Offering, provided that (i) all Participating
Brokers are registered with the NASD and are duly licensed by the State
Regulatory Authorities in the jurisdictions in which they will offer and sell
Shares or exempt from broker-dealer registration with the NASD and the State
Regulatory Authorities, and (ii) all such engagements are evidenced by written
agreements, the terms and conditions of which substantially conform to the form

authorized to reallow so much of the commissions which it receives under
Paragraph 4.1 to Participating Brokers as it sees fit.
3.3 Telephonic Subscriptions.
(a) The Managing Dealer may permit certain Participating
Brokers to accept telephonic or other oral subscriptions for Shares;
provided, however, that any such Participating Broker agrees that: (i)
the registered representative and branch manager of the Participating
Broker shall execute the subscription agreement on behalf of any
investor who telephonically or orally subscribes for Shares; (ii) the
Participating Broker shall not charge investors who telephonically or
orally subscribe for Shares any additional fees, including but not
limited to fees relating to opening an account with the Participating
Broker; and (iii) the Participating Broker shall not accept telephonic
or oral subscriptions for Shares from any investor unless such investor

agreement with each Participating Broker who wishes to accept
telephonic or other oral subscriptions for Shares from investors in
certain states more particularly identified in the Prospectus, pursuant
to which the Participating Broker shall agree to explain to such
investor that: (i) the investor shall have the right to rescind such
subscription for a period of ten days following the receipt of the
Confirmation (as hereinafter defined); and (ii) unless the investor
rescinds such subscription within the applicable period of time, the
investor shall be bound by the subscription agreement. The Managing
Dealer shall confirm the receipt of subscriptions for Shares which have
been subscribed for by telephone or other oral instructions by written
notice to the investor (the "Confirmation"). Such Confirmation shall be
mailed to the investor not later than seven (7) days after the date on
which the investor's funds are deposited, shall contain a statement
that the investor has a right to rescind his subscription, and shall be
accompanied by a Prospectus and a Subscriber's Signature Page.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Paragraph 4.3(a) of this Agreement, in the event that the Company pays
any commission to the Managing Dealer for sale by a Participating
Broker of one or more Shares pursuant to a telephonic or other oral
subscription where representatives of such Participating Broker execute
the subscription agreement relating to such Shares, and the
subscription is rescinded as to one or more of the Shares covered by
such subscription, the Company shall decrease the next payment of
commissions or other compensation otherwise payable to the Managing
Dealer by the Company under this Agreement by an amount equal to the
commission rate established in Paragraph 4.1 of this Agreement,
multiplied by the number of Shares as to which the subscription is
rescinded. In the event that no payment of commissions or other
compensation is due to the Managing Dealer after such withdrawal
occurs, the Managing Dealer shall pay the amount specified in the
preceding sentence to the Company within ten (10) days following
receipt of notice by the Managing Dealer from the Company stating the
amount owed as a result of rescinded subscriptions.
3.4 Suitability and Minimum Purchase Requirements.
(a) The Managing Dealer will use every reasonable effort, to
the extent it sells Shares to investors, to assure that any such Shares
are sold only to investors who:
(i) meet the investor suitability standards,
including the minimum income and net worth standard
established by the Company, and minimum purchase requirements
set forth in the Registration Statement;
(ii) can reasonably benefit from the Company based on
the prospective investor's overall investment objectives and
portfolio structure;
(iii) are able to bear the economic risk of the
investment based on each prospective investor's overall
financial situation; and
(iv) have apparent understanding of: (A) the
fundamental risks of the investment; (B) the risk that the
prospective investor may lose the entire investment; (C) the
lack of liquidity of the Shares; (D) the restrictions on
transferability of the Shares; (E) the background and
qualifications of the officers and directors of CNL Health
Care Corp., the advisor to the Company (the "Advisor"); and
(F) the tax consequences of an investment in the Shares.
(b) The Managing Dealer will make the determinations required
to be made by it pursuant to Paragraph 3.4(a) above based on
information it has obtained from a prospective investor, including, at
a minimum, but not limited to, the prospective investor's age,
investment objectives, investment experience, income, net worth,
financial situation, other investments of the prospective investor, as
well as any other pertinent factors deemed by the Managing Dealer to be
relevant.
(c) The Managing Dealer shall maintain such records evidencing
compliance with the determination of the investor suitability standards
and minimum purchase requirements set forth in the Registration
Statement, as required by Paragraphs 3.4(a) and 3.4(b) above for a
period of not less than six years, or for such greater time period as
shall comply with all applicable federal, state and other regulatory
requirements.
(d) In addition to the foregoing, the Managing Dealer shall
comply fully with all the applicable provisions of the NASD's Conduct
Rules and the following provisions:
(i) the Managing Dealer shall have reasonable grounds
to believe, based upon information provided by the investor
concerning his investment objectives, other investments,
financial situation and needs, and upon any other information
known by the Managing Dealer, that (A) each investor to whom
the Managing Dealer sells Shares is or will be in a financial
position appropriate to enable him to realize to a significant
extent the benefits (including tax benefits) of an investment
in the Shares, (B) each investor to whom the Managing Dealer
sells Shares has a fair market net worth sufficient to sustain
the risks inherent in an investment in the Shares (including
potential loss and lack of liquidity), and (C) the Shares
otherwise are or will be a suitable investment for each
investor to whom the Managing Dealer sells Shares, and the
Managing Dealer shall maintain files disclosing the basis upon
which the determination of suitability was made;
(ii) the Managing Dealer shall not execute any
transaction involving the purchase of Shares in a
discretionary account without prior written approval of the
transaction by the investor;
(iii) the Managing Dealer shall have reasonable
grounds to believe, based upon the information made available
to it, that all material facts are adequate and accurately
disclosed in the Registration Statement and provide a basis
for evaluating the Shares;
(iv) in making the determination set forth in item
(iii) above, the Managing Dealer shall evaluate items of
compensation, properties, tax aspects, financial stability and
experience of the sponsor, conflicts of interest and risk
factors, and any other information deemed pertinent by it; and
(v) prior to executing a purchase transaction in the
Shares, the Managing Dealer shall have informed the
prospective investor of all pertinent facts relating to the
liquidity and marketability of the Shares.
(e) The Managing Dealer shall comply with the requirements for
determining the suitability of investors who elect to participate in
the Reinvestment Plan (the "Reinvestment Plan") in accordance with the
procedure set forth in Paragraph 6 of such Reinvestment Plan in the
form of Appendix A to the Prospectus.
3.5 Sales Literature. The Managing Dealer shall use and distribute in
conjunction with the offer and sale of any Shares only the Prospectus and such
sales literature and advertising as shall have been previously approved in
writing by the Company.
3.6 Jurisdictions. The Managing Dealer shall cause Shares to be offered
and sold only in those jurisdictions specified in writing by the Company for
whose account Shares are then offered for sale, and such list of jurisdictions
shall be updated by the Company as additional states are added. The Company
shall specify only such jurisdictions in which the offering and sale of its
Shares has been authorized by appropriate State Regulatory Authorities. No
Shares shall be offered or sold for the account of the Company in any other
states.
3.7 Escrow. All funds received by the Managing Dealer for the sale of
Shares shall be deposited in an escrow account established by the Company at
SouthTrust Bank, N.A. (the "Escrow Agent"), by the close of the first business
day following receipt of such funds by the Managing Dealer. Such escrow account
shall be denominated "ESCROW ACCOUNT FOR THE BENEFIT OF SUBSCRIBERS FOR COMMON
STOCK OF CNL HEALTH CARE PROPERTIES, INC." Checks may be made payable to either
the Escrow Agent or the Company. The Managing Dealer may authorize certain
Participating Brokers which are "$250,000 broker-dealers" to instruct their
customers to make their checks for Shares subscribed for payable directly to the
Participating Broker. In such case, the Soliciting Dealer will collect the
proceeds of the subscribers' checks and issue a check made payable to the order
of the Escrow Agent for the aggregate amount of the subscription proceeds.
SECTION 4
COMPENSATION
4.1 Commissions.
(a) The Company shall pay to the Managing Dealer, as
compensation for all services to be rendered by the Managing Dealer
pursuant to this Agreement, a commission equal to seven and one-half
percent (7.5%) of the selling price of each Share for which a sale is
completed, regardless of whether such Share is sold by the Managing
Dealer or a Participating Broker; provided, however, that the Company
will pay reduced commissions or may eliminate commissions on certain
sales of Shares, including the reduction or elimination of commissions
in accordance with, and on the terms set forth in, the Prospectus and
the following paragraph of this Paragraph 4.1, which reduction or
elimination of commissions will not change the net proceeds to the
Company. Stockholders who elect to participate in the Reinvestment Plan
will be charged commissions on Shares purchased for their accounts on
the same basis as investors who otherwise purchase Shares in the
Offering.
(b) A registered principal or representative of the Managing
Dealer or a Participating Broker, employees, officers, and directors of
the Company or the Advisor, any of their Affiliates (and the families
of any of the foregoing persons), and any Plan (as defined in the
Prospectus) established exclusively for the benefit of such persons or
entities may purchase Shares net of 7% commissions, at a per Share
purchase price of $9.30. In addition, clients of an investment adviser
registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, who
have been advised by such adviser on an ongoing basis regarding
investments other than in the Company, and who are not being charged by
such adviser or its Affiliates, through payment of commissions or
otherwise, for the advice rendered by such adviser in connection with
the purchase of the Shares, may purchase the Shares net of commissions.
In addition, brokers that have a contractual arrangement with their
clients for the payment of fees which is consistent with accepting
selling commissions, in their sole discretion, may elect not to accept
any selling commissions offered by the Company for Shares that they
sell. In that event, such Shares shall be sold to the investor net of
all selling commissions, at a per share purchase price of $9.30.
4.2 Marketing Support and Due Diligence. The Company shall pay to the
Managing Dealer a nonaccountable fee for expenses incurred in selling and
marketing the Shares and for bona fide expenses incurred in connection with due
diligence activities. This marketing support and due diligence expense
reimbursement fee shall be equal to one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the
selling price of each Share for which a sale is completed, regardless of whether
such Share is sold by the Managing Dealer or a Participating Broker. All due
diligence expense reimbursements shall be paid by the Managing Dealer from this
fee.
4.3 Completed Sale.
(a) A sale of a Share shall be deemed to be completed under
Paragraph 4.1 if and only if (i) the Company has received a properly
completed and executed subscription agreement, together with payment of
the full purchase price of each purchased Share, from or, in accordance
with Paragraph 3.3(a), on behalf of an investor who satisfies the
applicable suitability standards and minimum purchase requirements set
forth in the Registration Statement as determined by the Managing
Dealer in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) the
Company has accepted such subscription, and (iii) such investor has
been admitted as a stockholder of the Company.
(b) The Managing Dealer hereby acknowledges and agrees that
the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, may accept or reject
any subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever, and
no commission will be paid to the Managing Dealer with respect to that
portion of any subscription which is rejected.
4.4 Payment. Except as provided in "The Offering - Plan of
Distribution" of the Prospectus, the commissions specified in Paragraph 4.1 for
the sale of any Share shall be payable in cash by the Company, as specified in
Paragraph 4.1, no later than the end of the calendar month in which the investor
subscribing for the Share is admitted as a stockholder of the Company. Investors
whose subscriptions for Shares are accepted shall be admitted no later than the
end of the calendar month in which such subscriptions are accepted. The Company
will accept or reject all subscriptions within 30 days after receipt.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the
Company pays any commission to the Managing Dealer for sale by a Participating
Broker of one or more Shares and the subscription is rescinded as to one or more
of the Shares covered by such subscription, the Company shall decrease the next
payment of commissions or other compensation otherwise payable to the Managing
Dealer by the Company under this Agreement by an amount equal to the commission
rate established in Paragraph 4.1 of this Agreement, multiplied by the number of
Shares as to which the subscription is rescinded. In the event that no payment
of commissions or other compensation is due to the Managing Dealer after such
withdrawal occurs, the Managing Dealer shall pay the amount specified in the
preceding sentence to the Company within ten (10) days following receipt of
notice by the Managing Dealer from the Company stating the amount owed as a
result of rescinded subscriptions.
Certain stockholders may agree with their participating Soliciting
Dealer and the Managing Dealer to have Selling Commissions relating to their
Shares paid over a seven year period pursuant to a deferred commission
arrangement (the "Deferred Commission Option"). Stockholders electing the
Deferred Commission Option will be required to pay a total of $9.40 per Share
purchased upon subscription, rather than $10.00 per Share, with respect to which
$0.15 per Share will be payable as Selling Commissions due upon subscription,
$0.10 of which may be reallowed to the Soliciting Dealer by the Managing Dealer.
For each of the six (6) years following such subscription on a date to be
determined by the Managing Dealer, $0.10 per Share will be paid by the Company
as deferred Selling Commissions with respect to Shares sold pursuant to the
Deferred Commission Option, which amounts will be deducted from and paid out of
distributions otherwise payable to such stockholders holding such Shares and may
be reallowed to the Soliciting Dealer by the Managing Dealer. The net proceeds
to the Company will not be affected by the election of the Deferred Commission
Option. Under this arrangement, a stockholder electing the Deferred Commission
Option will pay a 1% Selling Commission per year thereafter for the next six (6)
years which will be deducted from and paid by the Company out of distributions
otherwise payable to such stockholder. However, in the event the Company's
Shares are listed on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter market
or a stockholder electing the Deferred Commission Option sells or otherwise
transfers his or her Shares, prior to such time as the full amount otherwise
payable under the Deferred Commission Option has been paid, the obligation of
the Company and the stockholder to make any further payments of deferred
commissions shall terminate. In such event, the Managing Dealer (and any
Soliciting Dealer if the deferred
commissions are reallowed by the Managing Dealer) will not be entitled to
receive any further portion of the unpaid deferred commissions following listing
the Company's Shares on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter
market or the sale or transfer of the applicable Shares to which the deferred
commissions relate.
4.5 Sales Incentives. The Company or its Affiliates also may provide
incentive items for registered representatives of the Managing Dealer and the
Participating Brokers, which in no event shall exceed an aggregate of $100 per
annum per participating salesperson. In the event other incentives are provided
to registered representatives of the Managing Dealer or the Participating
Brokers, they will only be paid in cash and such payments will only be made to
the Managing Dealer or the Participating Brokers rather than their registered
representatives. Before any such sales incentive program is offered, the Company
agrees to obtain prior approval of the terms of such program from the NASD.
4.6 Wholesaling Compensation. The Company hereby acknowledges that the
Managing Dealer may pay each of its wholesalers 1% of the gross sales price
(computed at $10.00 per Share) of all Shares sold in such wholesaler's
geographic territory (as the same may be established from time to time by
agreement between the Managing Dealer and one or more of its wholesalers) but
not in excess, in the aggregate, of 1% of the gross sales price (computed at
$10.00 per Share) of all Shares sold, or a maximum of 15,500,000 Shares. The
Company and the Managing Dealer hereby agree that the Company shall have no
obligation to pay any portion of such amounts. The Company hereby agrees to
reimburse reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that such wholesalers incur in
connection with the distribution of its Shares; provided, however, that in no
event will the Managing Dealer or the Company pay any amounts to any person if
(i) such amounts constitute "underwriting compensation," and (ii) payment of
such amounts could cause total underwriting compensation paid to underwriters,
broker-dealers, or affiliates thereof from any source, and deemed to be in
connection with or related to the distribution of the Offering, to exceed
then-applicable compensation NASD guidelines.
4.7 Soliciting Dealer Servicing Fee. The Company shall pay to the
Managing Dealer an annual servicing fee (the "Soliciting Dealer Servicing Fee")
of .20% of the Company's Invested Capital (as defined below) on December 31 of
each year, commencing in the year following the year in which the Offering
terminates, subject to any limitations imposed on the Company by the NASD, state
securities regulators or otherwise. The Managing Dealer may reallow all or a
portion of the Soliciting Dealer Servicing Fee to Participating Brokers whose
clients hold Shares on December 31 of the applicable year. In general, Invested
Capital is the amount of cash contributed by stockholders to the Company,
reduced by certain prior capital distributions to the stockholders from the sale
of the Company's properties. The Soliciting Dealer Servicing Fee will terminate
as of the beginning of any year in which the Company is liquidated or the Shares
become listed on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter market.

of management of the Offering to a party designated by the Company.
