consents, and approvals from all governmental agencies which have jurisdiction
over the operation of the Facility.

fail to take any action which may (1) cause any governmental authority having
jurisdiction over the operation of the Facility to institute any proceeding for
the rescission or revocation of any necessary license, permit, consent or
approval, or (2) adversely affect Lessee's right to accept and obtain payments
under Medicare, Medicaid, or any other public or private third party medical
payment program.
(c) Manager shall, with the written approval of Lessee, have the
right to contest by appropriate legal proceedings, diligently conducted in good

jurisdiction over the operation of the Facility. Lessee, after having given its
written approval, shall pay attorneys' fees incurred with regard to the contest.
Counsel for any such contest shall be selected by Manager and approved by
Lessee. Manager shall have the right, without the written consent of the Lessee,
to process all third-party claims for the services of the Facility, including,

statute, ordinance, law, rule, regulation or order of any governmental or
regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Facility and to comply with all
orders and requirements of the local board of fire underwriters or any other
body which may exercise similar functions; provided, however, that Manager shall
not be required to expend any funds in order to comply with any such statutes,
ordinances, laws, rules, regulations or orders, and to the extent any funds are
so required, it shall fulfill its obligations hereunder by notifying Lessee of
the actions necessary in order to be in compliance therewith.

management, maintenance, nursing, personnel, pharmacy operations, public
relations, purchasing, quality assurance, systems and procedures, and
third-party reimbursement.
1.14 Performance of Services by Manager. In the performance of its
services hereunder, Manager shall exercise the same standards and degree of care
used by reasonable and prudent managers of nursing homes of similar size, nature
and character as the Facility. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
Manager shall not be deemed in violation of this Agreement if Manager is
prevented from performing any of its obligations hereunder for any reason beyond
its reasonable control including, without limitation, strikes, walkouts or other
employee disturbances, acts of God, or the action or promulgation of any
statute, rule, regulation or order by any federal, state, or local governmental
or judicial agency or official, nor shall it be deemed in default hereunder or
otherwise liable for any error of judgment or act or omission in the performance
of its services hereunder, which is made in reasonable good faith, except for
its wilful default or gross negligence.
6
1.15 Extraordinary Services. Lessee agrees that any extraordinary or
specialized service recommended by Manager and approved by Lessee, even if
provided by Manager, may be performed for a separate fee as agreed upon by
Manager and Lessee in advance of the performance of such service.

for two (2) additional periods of five (5) years each, by giving written notice
to Lessee of Manager's exercise of such right and option not later than three
(3) months prior to the end of the original term hereof or the term hereof as

such party or appointing a receiver, trustee or liquidator for such party or all

period of thirty (30) days, (or ten (10) days in the case of a failure to pay

2.04 Optional Termination.
(a) Either party has the option to terminate this Agreement, without
damage or penalty, upon ten (10) days prior written notice to the other, upon
the occurrence of either of the following events:
(i) The Facility or any material portion thereof is damaged or
destroyed to the extent that in the written opinion of an independent
architect or engineer reasonably acceptable to both parties (x) it is not
practicable or desirable to rebuild, repair or restore the Facility within
a period of six (6) months to its condition immediately preceding such

the Facility is taken under the exercise of the power of eminent domain by
any governmental authority or person, firm or corporation acting under

prevent the conducting of normal operations at the Facility for a period
of at least six (6) months.

a "publicly traded corporation," which term is hereby defined for all purposes
under this Agreement as a corporation whose shares of stock have been registered
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, or the state securities laws pursuant to an exemption from
