1. Interest
--------
Paragon Health Network, Inc., a Delaware corporation (such
corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter
referred to, being herein called the "Company")) promises to pay interest on the
principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above.
The Company will pay interest semi-annually in cash and in arrears to
Holders of record at the close of business on the April 15 and October 15
immediately preceding the interest payment date on May 1 and November 1 of each
year, commencing May 1, 1998. Interest on the 9 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes
due 2007 (the "Notes") will accrue from the most recent date to which interest
has been paid on the Notes or, if no interest has been paid, from November 4,
1997. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal or premium, if any
(plus interest on such interest to the extent lawful), at the rate borne by the
Notes to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months.
2. Method of Payment
-----------------
By at least 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which any
principal of or interest on the Notes is due and payable, the Company shall
irrevocably deposit with the Trustee or the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay
such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest. The Company will pay interest
(except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes
at the close of business on the April 15 or October 15 next preceding the
interest payment date even if the Notes are cancelled, repurchased or redeemed
after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must
surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company
will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time
of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. However,
the Company may pay interest by check payable in such money. It may mail an
interest check to a Holder's registered address.
3. Trustee, Paying Agent and Registrar
-----------------------------------
Initially, IBJ Xxxxxxxx Bank & Trust Company, a New York banking
corporation (the "Trustee"), will act as Trustee, Paying Agent and Registrar.
IBJ Xxxxxxxx Bank & Trust Company will also act as the Trustee for
$294,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 10 1/2% Senior Subordinated Discount
Notes due 2007 (the "Senior Subordinated Discount Notes"). The Company may
appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice to
any Noteholder. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Wholly Owned
Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.
4. Indenture
---------
The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of November
4, 1997 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance
with the terms thereof, the "Indenture"), among the Company and the Trustee. The
terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of
the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. (S)(S)
-----
77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the "Act"). Capitalized
terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in
the Indenture. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Noteholders are
referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms.
The Notes are general unsecured senior subordinated obligations of
the Company limited to $275 million aggregate principal amount (subject to
Section 310 of the Indenture). This Note is one of the Initial Notes referred to
in the Indenture. The Notes include the Initial Notes and any Exchange Notes
issued in exchange for the Initial Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the
Registration Rights Agreement.
The Initial Notes and the Exchange Notes are treated as a single class of
securities under the Indenture. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the
Incurrence of Indebtedness by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, the
payment of dividends on, and the purchase or redemption of, Capital Stock of the
Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, certain purchases or redemptions of
Subordinated Indebtedness, the sale or transfer of assets and Capital Stock of
Restricted Subsidiaries, investments of the Company and its Restricted
Subsidiaries and transactions with Affiliates. In addition, the Indenture limits
the ability of the Company and its Subsidiaries to restrict distributions and
dividends from Restricted Subsidiaries.
5. Optional Redemption
-------------------
The Notes will be redeemable, at the Company's option, in whole or in
part, at any time and from time to time on and after November 1, 2002 and prior
to maturity, upon not less than 30 nor more than 90 days prior notice mailed by
first-class mail to each Holder's registered address, at the following
redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued
interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of
record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant
interest payment date), if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on
November 1 of the years set forth below:
Year Redemption Price
---- ----------------
2002................................. 104.750%
2003................................. 103.167%
2004................................. 101.583%
2005 and thereafter.................. 100.000%
In addition, at any time and from time to time prior to November 1,
2000, the Company may redeem in the aggregate up to 33-1/3% of the original
aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the proceeds of one or more Equity
Offerings by the Company at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of
principal amount thereof) of 109.5% plus accrued interest, if any, to the
redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant
record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date);
provided, however, that at least 50% of the original aggregate principal amount
of the Notes must remain outstanding after each such redemption and that any
such redemption occurs within 90 days following the closing of any such Equity
Offering.
The aggregate principal amount of the Notes and the Senior
Subordinated Discount Notes to be redeemed shall be allocated by the Company
between the Notes and the Senior Subordinated Discount Notes in the Company's
sole discretion.
6. Notice of Redemption
--------------------
Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than
90 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at his
registered address. Notes in denominations of principal amount larger than
$1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000. If money
sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest on all
Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited
with the Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other
conditions are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on
such Notes (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.

7. Put Provisions
--------------
Upon a Change of Control, any Holder of Notes will have the right to
cause the Company to repurchase all or any part of the Notes of such Holder at a
repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and
unpaid interest to the date of repurchase as provided in, and subject to the
terms of, the Indenture.
8. Subordination and Ranking
-------------------------
The Notes are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness, as defined in the
Indenture. To the extent provided in the Indenture, Senior Indebtedness must be
paid before the Notes may be paid. The Company agrees, and each Noteholder by
accepting a Note agrees, to the Subordination provisions contained in the
Indenture and authorizes the Trustee to give them effect and appoints the
Trustee as attorney-in-fact for such purpose. The Notes and the Senior
Subordinated Discount Notes will in all respects rank pari passu with each other
and with all other Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company.
9. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange
---------------------------------
The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of
principal amount of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000. A Holder may transfer
or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a
Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer
documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the
Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange of (i)
any Note selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed
in part, the portion of the Note not to be redeemed) for a period beginning 15
days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed and ending on the date of such
selection or (ii) any Notes for a period beginning 15 days before an interest
payment date and ending on such interest payment date.
10. Persons Deemed Owners
---------------------
The registered holder of this Note may be treated as the owner of it
for all purposes.
11. Unclaimed Money
---------------
If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed
for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the
Company at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another
Person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to
the Company and not to the Trustee for payment.
12. Defeasance
----------
Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company
at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Notes and the
Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government
Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption
or maturity, as the case may be. The Company in its sole discretion can defease
either or both of the Notes and the Senior Subordinated Discount Notes.
13. Amendment, Waiver
-----------------
Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the
Indenture or the Notes may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of
at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes and (ii) any
default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written
consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding
Notes. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the
consent of any Noteholder, the Company and the Trustee
5
may amend the Indenture or the Notes to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or
inconsistency, or to comply with Article 5 of the Indenture, or to provide for
uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, or to add
guarantees with respect to the Notes or to secure the Notes, or to add
additional covenants or surrender rights and powers conferred on the Company, or
to comply with any request of the SEC in connection with qualifying the
Indenture under the Act, or to make any change that does not adversely affect
the rights of any Noteholder, or to provide for the issuance of Exchange Notes.
The Notes and the Senior Subordinated Discount Notes will vote
together as a single class of securities under the Indenture with respect to
matters on which Holders are required or permitted to vote.
14. Defaults and Remedies
---------------------
Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) a default in any
payment of interest on any Note when due (whether or not such payment is
prohibited by Article 13 of the Indenture), continued for 30 days, (ii) a
default in the payment of principal of any Note when due at its Stated Maturity,
upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, upon declaration or
otherwise, whether or not such payment is prohibited by Article 13 of the
Indenture, (iii) the failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under
Section 801 of the Indenture, (iv) the failure by the Company to comply for 30
days after written notice with any of its obligations under Section 1016 of the
Indenture or Sections 1003, 1009, 1010, 1011, 1012, 1013, 1014, 1015, 1017, 1019
or 1020 of the Indenture (in each case, other than a failure to purchase Notes
when required under Sections 1016 or 1017 of the Indenture), (v) the failure by
the Company to comply for 60 days after notice with its other agreements
contained in the Notes or the Indenture, (vi) the failure by the Company or any
Significant Subsidiary to pay any indebtedness within any applicable grace
period after final maturity or the acceleration of any such indebtedness by the
holders thereof because of a default if the total amount of such Indebtedness
unpaid or accelerated exceeds $20.0 million, (vii) certain events of bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization of the Company or a Significant Subsidiary, (viii)
the rendering of any judgment or decree for the payment of money in an amount
(net of any insurance or indemnity payments actually received in respect thereof
prior to or within 90 days from the entry thereof, or to be received in respect
thereof in the event any appeal thereof shall be unsuccessful) in excess of
$20.0 million against the Company or a Significant Subsidiary that is not
discharged, bonded or insured by a third Person if (A) an enforcement proceeding
thereon is commenced or (B) such judgment or decree remains outstanding for a
period of 90 days following such judgment or decree and is not discharged,
waived or stayed or (ix) the failure of any Guarantee of the Notes by a
Guarantor made pursuant to Section 1020 of the Indenture to be in full force and
effect (except as contemplated by the terms thereof or of the Indenture) or the
denial or disaffirmation in writing by any such Guarantor of its obligations
under the Indenture or any such Guarantee if such Default continues for 10 days.
If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of
at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding applicable Notes may
declare all such Notes to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of
bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Notes
being due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.
Noteholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as
provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or
the Notes unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to
certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may
direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may
withhold from Noteholders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default
(except a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal or interest) if it
determines that withholding notice is in their interest.
15. Trustee Dealings with the Company
---------------------------------
Subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, the Trustee
under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the
owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations
owed to it by the Company or its affiliates and may otherwise deal with the
Company or its affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not
Trustee.
16. No Recourse Against Others
--------------------------
A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company
shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes
or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such
obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Noteholder waives and
releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for the issue of the Notes.
17. Authentication
--------------
This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the
Trustee (or an authenticating agent acting on its behalf) manually signs the
certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.
18. Registration Rights
-------------------
The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of the
Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of November 4, 1997 (the "Registration

(A) and (B), a "Registration Default"), the Company will pay liquidated damages
to each holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement), during the period of one or more such Registration Defaults,
in an amount equal to $.192 per week per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes
constituting Transfer Restricted Securities held by such holder until the
applicable Registration Statement is filed or declared effective, the Exchange
Offer is consummated or the Shelf Registration Statement again becomes
effective, as the case may be, provided that, except in certain limited
circumstances, the Company's obligation to pay liquidated damages will terminate
upon consummation of the Exchange Offer. All accrued liquidated damages shall be
paid to holders in the same manner as interest payments on the Notes on semi-
annual payment dates which correspond to interest payment dates for the Notes.

damages will cease.
