Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (b) if Buyer delivers a notice to Title Insurer stating that Buyer has terminated this Agreement on or prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then Title Insurer shall immediately return the Earnest Money to Buyer without the necessity of delivering any notice to, or receiving any notice from Seller, and Title Insurer shall do so notwithstanding any objection by Seller.

(c)    The parties acknowledge that the Title Insurer is acting solely as a stakeholder at their request and for their convenience, that the Title Insurer shall not be deemed to be the agent of either of the parties, and that the Title Insurer shall not be liable to either of the parties for any action or omission on its part taken or made in good faith, and not in disregard of this Agreement, but shall be liable for its negligent acts and for any liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) incurred by Seller or Buyer resulting from the Title Insurer’s mistake of law respecting the Title Insurer scope or nature of its duties. Seller and Buyer shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Title Insurer harmless from and against all liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements) incurred in connection with the performance of the Title Insurer’s duties hereunder, except with respect to actions or omissions taken or made by the Title Insurer in bad faith, in disregard of this Agreement or involving negligence on the part of the Title Insurer. The Title Insurer has executed this Agreement in the place indicated on the signature page hereof in order to confirm that the Title Insurer has received and shall hold the Earnest Money in escrow, and shall disburse the Earnest Money pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.

(d)    Buyer and Seller, together, shall have the right to terminate the appointment of Title Insurer hereunder by giving to it notice of such termination, specifying the date upon which such termination shall take effect and designating a replacement Title Insurer, who shall sign a counterpart of this Agreement. Upon demand of such successor Title Insurer, the Earnest Money shall be turned over and delivered to such successor Title Insurer, who shall thereupon be bound by all of the provisions hereof. Title Insurer may resign at will and be discharged from its duties or obligations hereunder by giving notice in writing of such resignation specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect; provided, however, that (i) prior to such resignation a substitute escrow agent is approved in writing by Seller and Buyer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or (ii) Title Insurer shall deposit the Earnest Money with a court of competent jurisdiction. After such resignation, Title Insurer shall have no further duties or liability hereunder.

(a)    Buyer Default. If Buyer defaults in any of its obligations undertaken in this Agreement or New Operator defaults in any of its obligations undertaken in the OTA, and should such default continue for a period of ten (10) business days after the date on which Buyer receives Seller’s written notice of default, then Seller shall be entitled, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to either: (i) if Buyer is willing to proceed with Closing, waive such default and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof (assuming that New Operator also waives any default under the OTA and proceeds with closing thereunder); or (ii) declare this Agreement to be terminated, in which event Seller shall be entitled to immediately receive all of the Earnest Money as liquidated damages as and for Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy. Upon such termination, neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Seller and Buyer agree that (a) actual damages due to Buyer’s default hereunder would be difficult and inconvenient to ascertain and that such amount is not a penalty and is fair and reasonable in light of all relevant circumstances, (b) the amount specified as liquidated damages is not disproportionate to the damages that would be suffered and the costs that would be incurred by Seller as a result of having withdrawn the Properties from the market, and (c) Buyer desires to limit its liability under this Agreement to the amount of the Earnest Money paid in the event Buyer fails to complete Closing. Seller hereby waives any right to recover the balance of the Purchase Price, or any part thereof, and the right to pursue any other remedy permitted at law or in equity against Buyer. In no event under this Section or otherwise shall Buyer be liable to Seller for any punitive, speculative or consequential damages.

(b)    Seller Default. If Seller defaults in the performance of its obligations hereunder and or under the OTA, and should such default continue for a period of ten (10) business days after the date on which Seller receives Buyer’s written notice of default, then Buyer may, either waive such default and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof or may in its sole discretion elect to (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon Title Insurer shall return the Earnest Money to Buyer and Seller shall reimburse Buyer and New Operator for the lesser of: (A) Buyer’s and New Operator’s actual out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the OTA, including

without limitation, title insurance company charges, third-party reports, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses; or (B) the sum of One Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($150,000.00) (which obligations shall survive such termination), which return and payment shall operate to terminate this Agreement and release Seller and Buyer from any and all liability hereunder, except those which are specifically stated herein to survive any termination hereof, (ii) enforce specific performance of Seller’s obligations hereunder and Operator’s obligations under the OTA (as a third-party beneficiary thereof), or (iii) by notice to Seller given on or before the Closing Date, extend the Closing Date for a period of up to thirty (30) days to permit Seller to remedy any such default, and if such extension is given and Seller’s default continues, Buyer shall continue to have all rights and remedies stated herein, at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a willful or intentional default of Seller hereunder, Buyer shall, in addition to the foregoing remedies, be permitted to pursue any and all rights and remedies available to Buyer at law or in equity. Buyer may exercise the foregoing remedies with respect to all of the Properties or anyone of the Properties.

Section 10.    Closing. The Closing shall consist of the execution and delivery of documents by Seller, Operator and Buyer, as set forth below, and delivery by Buyer to Seller and Operator of the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. It is expected that the parties will not attend Closing and instead will utilize an escrow with Title Insurer. Title Insurer shall prepare and deliver to Seller and Buyer no later than three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date a statement setting forth the Purchase Price, all prorations, credits and other adjustments provided for in this Agreement, and the funds required for Closing as contemplated hereunder (the “Settlement Statement”). Any item which cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and adjusted when the information is available in accordance with this Section. If the pro-rations and credits made under the Settlement Statement shall prove to be incorrect or incomplete for any reason, then either party shall be entitled to an adjustment to correct the same; provided, however, that any adjustment shall be made, if at all, within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date or, if later, the close of an applicable real estate tax cycle which determines the amount of real estate taxes applicable to this pro-ration, and if a party fails to request an adjustment to the Closing statement by a written notice delivered to the other party within the applicable period set forth above (such notice to specify in reasonable detail the items within the Settlement Statement that such party desires to adjust and the reasons for such adjustment), then the pro-rations and credits set forth in the Settlement Statement shall be binding and conclusive against such party.

Each party shall proceed with diligence and in cooperation with the other party to obtain the Regulatory Approvals at the earliest possible opportunity.

Section 11.    Representations by Seller and Operator. For the purpose of inducing Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the sale and purchase of the Properties in accordance herewith, Seller and Operator (as applicable) make the following representations and warranties to Buyer as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, which shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1) year.

(a)    Each of Seller and Operator is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Illinois. Neither Seller nor Operator is in default under or in violation of any provision of its respective organizational documents. Seller and Operator are authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement and the OTA and consummate the transactions

set forth in this Agreement and the OTA and fulfill all of their respective obligations under this Agreement and under the OTA and under all closing documents to be executed by them, and has all necessary power to execute and deliver this Agreement, the OTA and all closing documents to be executed by them, and to perform all of their respective obligations hereunder and thereunder. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the OTA and all closing documents to be executed by Seller and/or Operator, nor the performance of the obligations of Seller and Operator hereunder or thereunder will result in the violation of any applicable municipal, county, state and federal laws, ordinances, regulations, statutes, administrative rulings or restrictive covenants (collectively, the “Laws”) or any provision of the organizational documents or will conflict with any order or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality of any nature by which they are bound or violate any of the Contracts or result in the termination of any Contract or result in the creation or imposition of any mortgage, pledge, security interest, encumbrance, charge or other lien upon the Real Property Assets or Operating Assets. Upon due execution and delivery, this Agreement, the OTA, and each closing document will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Seller and Operator, respectively, enforceable in accordance with its respective terms. The person executing this Agreement, the OTA, and the other closing documents on behalf of Seller and Operator has the authority to do so;

(b)    Seller, alone, has, and at Closing hereunder will convey and transfer to Buyer, indefeasible, good and marketable legal and equitable fee simple title to the Real Property, each as a single contiguous parcel, free and clear of all mortgages, deeds of trust, liens, claims, judgments, encumbrances, ground rents, leases, tenancies, licenses, security interests, covenants, conditions, restrictions, rights of way, easements, encroachments and any other matters affecting title, except only the Permitted Exceptions as to the Real Property. Seller and Operator have, and at Closing hereunder will convey and transfer to Buyer, indefeasible, good and marketable legal title to the other Real Property Assets owned by them, free and clear of all mortgages, deeds of trust, liens, claims, judgments, encumbrances, security interests, covenants, and any other matters affecting title thereto; and

(c)    Except for the Real Property Assets (which are owned by Seller), Operator owns or leases all assets which are material to the operation of the Facilities as conducted before the Effective Time. At Closing under the OTA, Operator will convey and transfer to New Operator pursuant to the OTA good title to the Operating Assets, free and clear of all liens, claims, judgments, encumbrances, security interests, covenants and other matters affecting title to such Operating Assets and, unless New Operator rejects assumption of a lease, New Operator will be entitled to use as lessee all leased assets that are material to the operation of the Facilities, at New Operator’s expense, following the Closing Date.

(d)    Except as set forth on Schedule 11(d) hereto, neither Seller nor Operator has received any written notice of any threatened, current or pending litigation, action, proceeding (including municipal, health, administrative, or condemnation proceedings), tax appeals (or other similar proceedings challenging or seeking to reduce the assessed valuation of the Real Property) or environmental investigations against Seller, Operator, any other tenant or subtenant, the Real Property Assets or in connection with the business operated at the Facilities. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the disclosure of current or

pending litigation shall in no way release Seller or Operator from responsibility for any such claims, and Buyer shall in no way be deemed to have assumed responsibility for any such claims, either by virtue of receipt of such notice or the occurrence of the Closing.

(e)    Permanent certificates of occupancy and all other licenses, permits, authorizations, consents, approvals and other grants of authority required by all governmental or quasi-governmental authorities having jurisdiction, including but not limited to Regulatory Approvals by all applicable Health Care Regulatory Agency and Third Party Payor, and the requisite certificates of the local board of fire underwriters (or other body exercising similar functions), if any, have been, or as of Closing will have been, issued for the Improvements which are a part of the Property, and for the full functioning and operation of the Property and the operation of assisted living facilities thereon, have been paid for in full, and are, and as of Closing will be, in full force and effect. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

Since the date of the Current Financial Statement, the Facilities have not (a) suffered any Material Adverse Effect; (b) incurred any indebtedness for borrowed money related to or secured by one or more of the Facilities; (c) acquired or disposed of any Real Property Assets or Operating Assets or incurred any liabilities or obligations or agreed to do any of the foregoing, except in the ordinary course of business consistent with prior practice; (d) accelerated any item of income or gain into the period prior to the Closing, or deferred any item of expense or loss into the period after Closing, if such acceleration or deferral is not made in the ordinary course of Seller’s business consistent with Seller’s treatment of such items in prior periods; or (e) entered into any employment, compensation, consulting or collective bargaining agreement with any person or group, or modified or amended the terms of any such existing agreement or agreed to do any of the foregoing to the extent that Buyer or New Operator would incur any liability with respect thereto;

(bb)    Seller and Operator have filed or will file prior to the Closing all income, excise, corporate, franchise, property, sales, payroll, withholding and other tax returns and reports required to be filed by it as of the date hereof by the United States of America or any state or any political subdivision thereof and has paid or established adequate reserves for all taxes (including penalties and interest) which have or may become due pursuant to such returns and any assessments which have been received by it or otherwise. All such tax returns or reports fairly and accurately reflect the taxes of Seller and Operator, as the case may be, for the periods covered thereby. Neither Seller nor Operator is delinquent in the payment of any tax, assessment or governmental charge, there is no tax deficiency or delinquency asserted against Seller or Operator and there is no unpaid assessment, proposal for additional taxes, deficiency or delinquency in the payment of any of the taxes of Seller Operator that could be asserted by any taxing authority, nor of any violation of any federal, state, local or foreign tax law and for which Buyer or New Operator may be held liable. Neither Seller nor Operator has granted any extension to any taxing authority of the limitation period during which any tax liability may be asserted and for which Buyer or New Operator may be held liable. All monies required to be withheld by Seller or Operator from employees of the Facilities or other payees relating to the Facilities, including amounts attributable to tips or gratuities received by employees, or collected from customers or other payees for income taxes, social security and unemployment insurance taxes and sales, excise and use taxes, including but not limited to penalties and interest thereon, have been collected or withheld and either paid to the respective governmental agencies or set aside in accounts for such purpose. No Internal Revenue Service or other tax audit of Seller or

Operator is pending or, to Seller’s or Operator’s knowledge, threatened. No Internal Revenue Service or other tax audit of Seller or Operator has occurred during the last five (5) years. Neither Seller nor Operator has committed a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign tax laws that would have a Material Adverse Effect upon the Real Property Assets, Operating Assets, or the Facilities;

(cc)    To the Seller’s and Operator’s Knowledge, neither Seller nor Operator has infringed, violated or misappropriated any Intellectual Property (defined below) rights of any third party. Neither Seller nor Operator has received any complaint, claim or notice, or written threat alleging any such material infringement, violation or misappropriation, and, to the Seller’s and Operator’s knowledge, there is no reasonable basis for any such claim. For these purposes, “Intellectual Property” shall mean, collectively, all: (i) United States or foreign patents, patent applications, patent disclosures, and all renewals, reissues, divisions, continuations, extensions or continuations-in-part thereof; (ii) trademarks, service marks, trade dress, trade names, fictitious names, corporate names, and registrations and applications for registration thereof; and (iii) copyrights (registered or unregistered), registrations and applications for registration thereof, including all renewals, derivative works, enhancements, modifications, updates, new releases or other revisions thereof;

(dd)    Seller and Operator are in compliance in all material respects with all Applicable Law respecting employment and employment practices with respect to employees located at the Facilities. To Seller’s and Operator’s Knowledge, all of the employees at the Facilities are currently eligible to work in the United States and Operator reviews the qualifying documentation to establish identity and authorization to work in the United States for each such employee. To Seller’s or Operator’s Knowledge, there are I-9’s on file at the respective Facility for each of the employees. No legal claim in respect of application for employment, employment, the terms or conditions of employment, the handling of benefits or termination of employment of any person is currently pending or, to each Seller’s or Operator’s Knowledge, threatened, against any Seller or Operator or any of their subsidiaries, in connection with the hiring, employment, or termination of employees located at the Facilities. No labor strike, picketing action, dispute, slowdown or stoppage, or unfair labor practices are actually pending or, to Seller’s or Operator’s Knowledge, threatened against, or involving Seller, Operator, or any Facility. Neither Seller nor Operator is a party to any collective bargaining agreement, and no collective bargaining agreement is currently being negotiated by Seller or Operator. To the Seller’s and Operator’s knowledge, no petitions for representation have been filed against any Facility nor have any demands been made for recognition. All employees located at each Facility are employees of Operator and are employees-at-will;

(ee)    Except as set forth in Schedule 11(ee) and except in the normal course of business (e.g. a regularly scheduled raise given on an employee’s anniversary date of employment, etc.), since the date of the Current Financial Statement, neither Seller nor Operator has granted or become obligated to grant any increases in the wages or salary of, or paid or become obligated to pay any bonus or made or become obligated to make any similar payment to or grant any benefit to or on behalf of any employee and for which Buyer would be liable;

(ff)    Except as set forth on Schedule 11(ff), neither Seller nor Operator sponsors, maintains, or is otherwise a party to, or is in default under, or has any accrued obligations under any pension, deferred compensation, bonus or other incentive plan, severance plan, health, group insurance or other welfare plan, employee benefit plan or other similar plan, agreement, policy or understanding (“Employee Benefit Plans”);

(gg)    Seller and Operator have complied with all Applicable Laws with respect to the Employee Benefit Plans, including the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”), and are not in default with respect to any of them;

(hh)    Seller has not received any notice of any disruption (including delayed deliveries or allocations by suppliers or service providers) in the availability of the materials, products, supplies or services used in respect to operation of the Facilities, nor is Seller or Operator aware of any facts which could lead Seller to believe that any Facility (whether before or after the Closing) will be subject to any such material disruption. Neither Seller nor Operator is aware of any condition (financial or otherwise) affecting any of the major suppliers to the Facilities that is likely to reduce each such supplier’s ability to do business with Buyer or New Operator in a similar manner that each supplier has done business with Seller or Operator during the period preceding this Agreement. No member, director, officer or affiliate of Seller or Operator has any direct or indirect continuing financial relationship with any customer or supplier of, or other contracting party with Seller or Operator; and

(ii)    All information given to Buyer in this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder shall be true, complete and accurate in every material respect as of the date hereof and, at the Closing, the foregoing representations and warranties of Seller and Operator shall be remade as of the Closing Date. To Seller’s or Operator’s Knowledge, Seller and Operator have no information of any facts, circumstances, or conditions that are inconsistent with the representations and warranties contained herein. Seller and Operator shall promptly inform Buyer in writing if there occurs any (i) change having a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the condition, financial or otherwise, of the Properties or the operation thereof, at any time prior to the Closing Date or (ii) if any information, document, agreement or other material delivered to Buyer is amended, superseded, modified or supplemented.

Section 12.    Buyer’s Representations. Buyer represents and warrants to, and covenants with, Seller and Operator that Buyer is duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware, authorized to conduct business in the State of Illinois, and is authorized to consummate the transaction set forth herein and fulfill all of its obligations hereunder and under all closing documents to be executed by Buyer. Buyer has all necessary power to execute and deliver this Agreement and all closing documents to be executed by Buyer, and to perform all of Buyer’s obligations hereunder and thereunder. This Agreement and all closing documents to be executed by Buyer have been (or as of Closing will have been) duly authorized by all requisite corporate or other required action on the part of Buyer and are the valid and legally binding obligation of Buyer, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement and all closing documents to be

executed by Buyer, nor the performance of the obligations of Buyer hereunder or thereunder, will result in the violation of any Laws or any provision of the organizational documents of Buyer or will conflict with any order or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality of any nature by which Buyer is bound.

Section 13.    Survival of Representations and Warranties; Indemnification.

(a)    The representations and warranties of the parties in this Agreement will survive the Closing and will expire by their own terms on the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date.

(b)    Subject to the provisions of this Section 13, Seller and Operator, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, each shall (jointly and severally, in the case of Seller and operator) indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party and its affiliates, members, directors, officers and agents for, from and against any and all any damages, suits, claims, proceedings, fines, judgments, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Losses”) asserted against or suffered by such other party as a result of or arising from any breach by such party of its representations, warranties, or covenants in this Agreement.

(c)    Any party entitled to receive indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnitee”) will use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any indemnifiable Losses, including using commercially reasonable efforts to recover otherwise indemnifiable Losses from insurers of Indemnitee under applicable insurance policies so as to reduce the amount of any indemnifiable Loss hereunder, and will not take any action specifically excluding from any of its insurance policies any otherwise indemnifiable Losses if losses of such type are otherwise covered by such policies. The amount of any indemnifiable Loss will be reduced: (i) to the extent that Indemnitee receives any insurance or any other proceeds with respect to an otherwise indemnifiable Loss, and (ii) take into account any net tax benefit recognized by Indemnitee arising from the recognition of the indemnifiable Loss and any payment actually received with respect to an otherwise indemnifiable Loss.

(d)    In the event that Indemnitee becomes aware of a claim for which it may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such party will promptly notify the other party (an “Indemnitor”), describing the claim in reasonable detail and indicating the estimated amount, to the extent practicable, of the indemnifiable Loss that Indemnitee claims it has sustained or may sustain. Indemnitor, at its sole cost and expense, will have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnitee delivered within fifteen (15) business days following its receipt of such notice from the Indemnitee, to retain counsel and conduct the defense of the claim while reserving its right to contest the issue of whether it is liable to Indemnitee for any indemnification hereunder. If Indemnitor elects to conduct the defense of the claim, Indemnitee will cooperate fully with respect thereto, and the costs of any separate counsel retained by Indemnitee will be borne solely by Indemnitee. In the event Indemnitor fails to timely respond to the written notice of a claim, or refuses to timely retain counsel and conduct the defense of the claim, Indemnitee may retain counsel and conduct the defense of the claim, and Indemnitor will be liable for all reasonable defense costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) to the extent Indemnitor is otherwise

obligated hereunder to indemnify Indemnitee with respect to such claim. In connection with any claim for which Indemnitor accepts full responsibility hereunder, Indemnitor will have full authority to make all decisions and determine all actions to be taken with respect to the defense and settlement of the claim, including the right to pay, compromise, settle, or otherwise dispose of the claim at Indemnitor’s expense; provided, however, that any such settlement will be subject to the prior consent of Indemnitee, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, if the settlement involves relief other than or in addition to the payment of money by Indemnitor. A failure to give timely notice hereunder will affect the rights and obligations of a party hereunder only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, the party entitled to receive the notice was actually prejudiced as a result of such failure; provided, however, that in no event will a claim for indemnification be valid if made after the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth herein.

(e)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 13, no claim for indemnification by either party hereunder may be made unless the aggregate amount of all Indemnifiable Losses exceeds $25,000.

(f)    For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the obligations and covenants contained in this Section 13 shall survive the Closing for the applicable survival period set forth herein, (ii) the remedies and obligations under this Section 13 shall apply after the Closing only, (iii) prior to the Closing, or in the event that this Agreement is terminated, the parties’ remedies will be determined by other provisions contained in this Agreement, and (iv) after the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy for any breach or alleged breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant under this Agreement or any other instrument or agreement delivered in connection with this transaction (including the OTA) will be to seek indemnification in accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, this Section 13.

Section 14.    Conditions to Buyer’s Obligations. All of Buyer’s obligations hereunder (including, without limitation, Buyer’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price, to accept title to the Properties and to consummate the Closing) are expressly conditioned on the satisfaction at or before the time of Closing of the following conditions precedent being fully satisfied as of the Closing (any one or more of which may be waived in writing in whole or in part by Buyer, at Buyer’s option):

If any of the foregoing conditions precedent have not been satisfied as of Closing, Buyer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, either: (i) waive any unsatisfied conditions and proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof with no deduction from or adjustment of the Purchase Price except for (a) adjustment equal to the amount required to satisfy and discharge of record at or before Closing of any and all liens, judgments or other encumbrances which can be removed by the payment of a fixed and ascertainable amount together with interest and penalties thereon, if any, and together with any additional title insurance costs or premiums imposed by Title Insurer by reason thereof, and (b) the cost of curing any failed condition precedent to the extent reducible to a liquidated sum; (ii) suspend the Closing Date on one or more occasions for a period of time as Buyer shall reasonably determine in order to allow for all of the foregoing conditions precedent to be satisfied, during which period Seller, Operator and Buyer shall work cooperatively and with reasonable diligence to satisfy all of said conditions, or (iii) terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice thereof to Seller and Operator no later than Closing, upon which termination the Earnest Money shall be refunded to Buyer and, except as expressly stated in this Agreement, all obligations, liabilities and rights of the parties under this Agreement shall terminate.

Notices may be given on a party’s behalf by its attorney.

Section 17.    Seller and Operator Covenants. Seller and Operator agree that, with respect to each of the Properties it: (a) shall continue to operate and manage the Properties in a prudent and businesslike manner and in the same manner in which Seller and Operator have previously operated and managed the Properties, and in doing so, Seller and Operator shall not take any action, or fail to take any action which would cause the Properties to be operated, managed and maintained (i) in violation or continued violation of any Laws, (ii) in a manner the result of which would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Properties or Buyer’s ability to lease to a tenant to continue the operation thereof after the Closing in substantially the same manner as now conducted, or (iii) which would cause any of the representations and warranties of Seller and Operator contained in this Agreement to be incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect as of the Closing; (b) shall make all necessary repairs and replacements required to keep the Properties in good repair and working order and in substantially the same condition as the date hereof; (c) shall maintain in full force and effect all insurance policies in place with respect to the Properties as of the Effective Date; (d) shall not, without Buyer’s prior written consent: (i) amend any existing lease, license agreement or other occupancy agreement (other than Residency Agreements) or Contract or enter into any new lease, license agreement or other occupancy agreement (other than Residency Agreements) or Contract with respect to the Properties the term of which extends beyond the Closing Date; (ii) consent to an assignment of the current leases of the Properties or a sublease of the premises demised thereunder or a termination or surrender thereof; (iii) terminate the current leases of the Properties nor release any guarantor of or security for any of the current leases of the Properties; and/or (iv) cause, permit or consent to an alteration of the Real Property unless such consent is non-discretionary);

and (e) shall timely perform all of Seller’s and Operator’s obligations under the current leases of the Properties and the Contracts, under all governmental approvals, and under all other agreements relating to the Properties; and Seller and Operator shall comply with all Laws affecting the Properties, and duly and timely file all tax reports required to be filed by Seller and Operator and promptly pay when due all federal, state and local taxes and assessments, charges, fees, interest and penalties levied on Seller, Operator or the Properties. Seller and Operator shall promptly inform Buyer in writing of any event having a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Properties, whether insured or not.

Section 18.    Bulk Transfer Tax Clearance. The parties acknowledge that the laws of the state in which the Properties are located may require that, as a result of the sale of the Properties to Buyer, certain governmental agencies or authorities be notified in advance of the Closing Date, of the proposed assignment and transfer of the Properties to Buyer, and further may require that Seller and Operator (and in certain circumstances, Seller’s and Operator’s direct or indirect owners) obtain and/or deliver to Buyer a clearance certificate evidencing the payment by Seller and Operator of certain taxes and assessments. Seller and Operator will timely give such applicable notices (if any) to such governmental agencies or authorities, in advance of Closing, as required under such laws, and shall use all reasonable efforts to promptly obtain and deliver to Buyer such applicable clearance certificates, if any, by the Closing Date. The parties further acknowledge that, as a result of procedures for the administration of applications for such clearance certificate, and anticipated delays therein, it may not be possible for Seller and Operator to obtain and deliver such clearance certificate as of the Closing Date, or for some period of time thereafter. Seller and Operator shall nevertheless deliver to Buyer at Closing evidence reasonably acceptable to Buyer and to the Title Insurer that such applicable notices (in proper form) have been timely delivered and, if such notices are statutorily required, that all tax returns for periods prior to the tax fiscal year(s) in which the Closing occurs have been filed with and all taxes paid to all applicable governmental authorities. Seller and Operator also shall promptly request and upon receipt (but at least three (3) business days before the Closing Date) deliver to Buyer a Tax Lien Certificate, issued by the Department of Revenue of the State in which the Properties are located evidencing that no liens or claims for unpaid taxes have been assessed against Seller, Operator or the Properties. Seller and Operator agree to act in good faith and with reasonable diligence to apply for, obtain and (upon receipt) deliver to Buyer (with copies to the Title Insurer) all statutorily required clearance certificates at or as soon after the Closing Date as is reasonably possible. If any such clearance certificate is not available at the Closing, the failure to deliver such clearance certificate shall not constitute a deficiency in the quality of title that is required by this Agreement to convey; provided, however, that the Title Insurer shall raise no exception therefor in the title policy, and; provided, further, that (i) no liens or claims for unpaid taxes shall then have been assessed against Seller, Operator or the Properties, and (ii) Seller and Operator delivers to the Title Insurer and Buyer at Closing a written indemnification agreement in form and content, and issued by Seller and Operator and/or a party, reasonably acceptable to Buyer and its counsel relating to liabilities that may arise against Buyer and the Properties as a result of the Seller’s and/or Operator’s failure to obtain and deliver such clearance certificates as of the Closing.

Section 19.    Computation of Time; Performance on Business Days. In computing any period of time pursuant to this Agreement, the day of the act or event from which the designated period of time begins to run will not be included. The last day of the period so computed will be included, unless it is a Saturday, Sunday or a Holiday, in which event the period runs until the end of the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or such Holiday. The term “business day” shall mean Monday through Friday, except for a Holiday. The term “Holiday” shall mean Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day and any other day in which a majority of federal or national banks are not open for business. All references to a period of days herein shall be deemed to refer to calendar days unless the term “business day” is used.

Section 20.    Entire Agreement; Modification. This Agreement constitutes the sole and entire agreement among the parties hereto and no modification of this Agreement shall be binding unless in writing and signed by Seller, Operator and Buyer. No signature of Title Insurer shall be required to amend this Agreement except for an amendment modifying the terms of Section 8 of this Agreement. No prior agreement or understanding pertaining to the subject matter hereof (including, without limitation, any letter of intent executed prior to this Agreement) shall be valid or of any force or effect from and after the date hereof. Any rule of construction which provides that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply to the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 21.    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall be invalid or unenforceable, at any time or to any extent, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby. Each provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law

Section 22.    Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the State of Illinois, without giving effect to any state’s conflict of laws principles.

Section 23.    Broker’s Commissions.

Seller shall be responsible for payment of commissions to the Broker pursuant to a separate written agreement executed by Seller. Seller/Operator and Buyer each hereby agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from all loss, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees at both trial and appellate levels) incurred by the other as a result of any claim arising out of the acts of the indemnifying party (or others on its behalf) for a commission, finder’s fee or similar compensation made by any broker, finder or any party who claims to have dealt with such party (except that Buyer shall have no obligations hereunder with respect to any claim by Broker). The representations, warranties and indemnity obligations contained in this section shall survive the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

Section 24.    Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may assign its rights under this Agreement without Seller or Operator consent to an affiliate of Buyer formed for the sole purpose of acquiring the Properties, provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any of its obligations hereunder; provided, further, however, any assignee of Buyer shall also become a party to and bound by the terms of this Agreement. If this Agreement relates to more than one Property, Buyer may assign this Agreement in part with respect to individual Properties to facilitate the acquisition of each Property by a separate entity formed by Buyer with respect to each Property. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer and execute such documents as are reasonably necessary for Buyer to effect such assignment; provided, however, that: (a) Seller shall not be obligated to incur any additional out of pocket expenses as a result of such assignment; and (b) Buyer shall indemnify Seller against any costs or losses arising as a result of, or in connection with, such assignment.
