To Seller’s knowledge, none of its Facility employees have been added to the excluded provider list since the most recent review of the excluded provider lists.
8.11 Environmental Matters; Hazardous Substances. The Real Property has not been used by Seller, or to Seller’s knowledge, by any other person or entity for the generating, handling, storage, disposal, or release of any material or substance that is defined, regulated or classified as hazardous or toxic or as a pollutant or contaminant under any Environmental Law (defined below), including any petroleum or fraction thereof, asbestos or asbestos containing material, polychlorinated biphenyls, toxic mold, lead based paint, radon, and any radioactive or infectious material or substance (collectively referred to as “Hazardous Substances”) except such Hazardous Substances as are used, generated, handled, stored, disposed of and/or released at the Facilities in the ordinary course of the operation of the Facilities (or the applicable operations of any prior owner or occupant) where such use, generation, handling, storage, disposal and/or release is in full compliance with applicable Environmental Laws and does not require remediation or abatement under any applicable Environmental Law. For purposes of this Agreement, none of the actions described above will be deemed to be an action that is not in full compliance with applicable Environmental Law if the resulting condition has been remediated or abated in accordance with Environmental Law. “Environmental Law” means any Applicable Law applicable to Seller or the Real Property, any order or permit issued to Seller or with respect
to the Real Property by a governmental authority, and any binding agreement between Seller and a governmental authority regulating or imposing liability or standards of conduct concerning any of the following: (a) discharge of pollution to land, air, or water; (b) generation, storage, transport, and disposal of waste; (c) protection or use of natural resources, including endangered species and wetlands; (d) exposure of employees or third parties to hazardous or toxic materials;
(e)public or worker health and safety; (f) contamination of soil, surface water, or groundwater, including investigation, assessment, testing, monitoring, containment, cleanup, removal, remediation, remedial action, and corrective action; and (g) the production, management, and disposal of products containing any hazardous or toxic material, including the registration, use, labeling, and recycling of such products. Seller has not used nor authorized nor allowed the use of the Real Property, and the Real Property has not been used by Seller, in a matter other than in full compliance with Environmental Laws that does not require remediation or abatement under any applicable Environmental Laws:
(a)Neither Seller nor to Seller’s knowledge, Existing Landlord, has received any notice of any claims, actions, suits or proceedings or investigations relating to Hazardous Substances or Environmental Laws with respect to ownership, condition, or operation of any of the Assets of Seller, including, but not limited to, the Real Property, in any court or before or by any federal, state, or other governmental agency or private arbitration.
(b)No release, discharge, spillage, or disposal, except in compliance with Environmental Law, of any Hazardous Substance by Seller, or, to Seller’s knowledge, any other person, has occurred or is occurring at the Real Property, other than those that have been remediated or abated in accordance with applicable Environmental Law.
(c)To Seller’s knowledge, no soil or water in or around or adjacent to the Real Property was contaminated by any Hazardous Substance that has not been remediated or abated in accordance with applicable Environmental Law.
(d)All waste containing any Hazardous Substance which, during Seller’s leasing and operation of the Facilities, has been generated, used, handled, stored, treated or disposed of (directly or indirectly) by the Facilities, and to Seller’s knowledge, by their contractors, has been disposed of in compliance with all Environmental Laws and in a manner not requiring remediation or abatement under any applicable Environmental Laws.
(e)Seller has and to Seller’s knowledge, Existing Landlord has, complied with all applicable reporting requirements under all Environmental Laws concerning the disposal or release of Hazardous Substances, and neither Seller nor, to Seller’s knowledge, Existing Landlord has, made any such reports concerning any premises, operations or activities of Seller.
(f)Except as disclosed in the Due Diligence Materials, there are no underground tanks or any other underground storage facility presently located on the Real Property and, to Seller’s knowledge, no such tanks or facilities were ever previously located at or around the Real Property.
(g)All properties, structures, machinery, equipment and products used or produced in Seller’s business are free of asbestos and asbestos-containing materials, polychlorinated biphenyls, toxic mold, lead-based paint, and radon.
8.12 Changes in Third-Party Payors. Seller has not received written notice that any health plan, insurance company, employer or other third-party payor, which is currently doing business with the Facilities, intends to terminate, limit or restrict its relationship with the Facilities.
8.13 Financial Statements. Seller has provided to Purchaser true and correct copies of the audited financial statements of SLC, Manager and each Sublessee for the calendar years ended December 31, 2011, 2012, 2013 and the unaudited financial statements of SLC, Manager and each Sublessee for the 10-month period ending October 31, 2014 (collectively, the “Financial Statements”). The Financial Statements fairly present, in all material respects, the results of operations, cash flows and financial position of Seller, as of the dates referred to in the Financial Statements, all in accordance with GAAP. Except as disclosed in Schedule 8.13 or in the Financial Statements, there are no liabilities, debts, claims or obligations related to any Seller, whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise, whether due or to become due, that would reasonably be expected to be asserted against Purchaser or any Seller following the Closing Date.
8.14 Solvency. Immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby, each Seller shall be solvent and shall: (a) be able to pay its debts as they become due; (b) owns property that has a fair saleable value greater than the amounts required to pay its debts (including a reasonable estimate of the amount of all contingent liabilities); and (c) has adequate capital to carry on its business. No transfer of property is being made and no obligation is being incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors of any of Seller.
8.15 No Material Defaults. There are currently no events of default outstanding under the Existing Lease nor, to Seller’s knowledge, is there any event outstanding that with the passage of time would reasonably be expected to constitute an event of default under the Existing Lease that would, in either case, prohibit Seller from exercising the Existing Purchase Option or excuse Existing Landlord from its obligation to sell, the Facilities. The Existing Purchase Option constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of SLC and Existing Landlord and is enforceable against SLC and Existing Landlord in accordance with the terms thereof. No proceedings are pending or, to Seller’s knowledge, threatened that may result in the revocation, cancellation, suspension or modification of the Existing Purchase Option. Neither Seller nor Existing Landlord is in breach of any provision of the Existing Purchase Option. Seller has received all necessary consents of the Existing Landlord to (i) assign or transfer the Existing Purchase Option to Purchaser as described in this Agreement, and (ii) to waive any notice requirement with respect to the Existing Purchase Option.
8.16 Taxes. All tax returns required to be filed by Seller for any tax period ending on or before the Closing Date have been, or will be, timely filed. Such tax returns are, or will be, true, complete and correct in all material respects. All taxes due and owing by Seller have been, or will be, timely paid.
8.17 Health Care Surveys and Reports. True, correct and complete copies of all health care inspections and survey reports, including any waivers of deficiencies, plans of correction, and any other investigative reports issued since January 1, 2012 with respect to each Facility have been provided by Seller to Purchaser prior to the Execution Date, or will be provided to Purchaser as part of the Due Diligence Review.
8.18 Insurance. True, correct and complete copies of all insurance policies providing coverage with respect to any facility have been provided by Seller to Purchaser prior to the Execution Date. Such insurance is adequate and in amounts customary for the industry in which Seller operates. Neither Seller nor to Seller’s knowledge, Existing Landlord, has received any written notice or request from any insurance company or underwriters setting forth any defects in any of the Facilities which such insurance company or underwriters have indicated would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the insurability of any of the Facilities, requesting the performance of any work or alteration of any of the Facilities or setting forth any defect or inadequacy in any of Seller’s operation of its Facility which such insurance company or underwriters have indicated would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the insurability of the affected Facility. All insurance on the Facilities is maintained by Seller and/or Manager and each insurance policy of Seller and/or Manager is in full force and effect (free from any present exercisable right of termination on the part of the insurance company issuing such policy prior to the expiration of the terms of such policy). Neither Seller nor Manager has received any notice of non-renewal or cancellation of any such policies.
8.19 | Notice of Certain Events. |
8.19.1 From the Execution Date until the Closing, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in writing of:
(i)any fact, circumstance, event or action the existence, occurrence or taking of which (A) has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect, (B) has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, any representation or warranty made by Seller hereunder not being true and correct or (C) has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 to be satisfied;
(ii)any notice or other communication from any person alleging that the consent of such person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

8.19.2 Purchaser's receipt of information pursuant to this Section shall not operate as a waiver or otherwise affect any representation, warranty or agreement given or made by Seller in this Agreement and shall not be deemed to amend or supplement any disclosure schedules.
8.20 No Monetary Liens. Other than the Resident Mortgages and liens that will be satisfied or released at or before Closing, there are no Monetary Liens encumbering the Purchased Assets, and the Purchased Assets are free and clear of any such Monetary Liens. “Monetary Liens” shall mean liens of the type customarily placed on assets as security in favor of a lender in connection with funded indebtedness.
8.21 | 8-K Requirements. |
8.21.1 For a period from the Execution Date until three (3) years after Closing, Seller shall from time to time upon Purchaser’s request, make the Financial Statements, Live Long Well Care, LLC financial statements, any underlying financial data associated therewith, and all other books, records and files relating to any period prior to the Closing (whether in paper or electronic format) available to Purchaser for inspection, copying and audit by Purchaser and Purchaser’s designated accountants, at Purchaser’s expense. Provided that Purchaser agrees to bear any associated third-party expense (i.e. excluding expenses of Seller’s personnel and other overhead expenses), Seller shall provide Purchaser with copies of, or access to, such factual information as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser, and in the possession or under the direct or indirect control of Seller, to enable Purchaser or an affiliate (or their respective successors) to (x) include such information in registration statements, offering memoranda or prospectuses, or similar disclosure documents in connection with syndications, private placements or public offerings of equity or debt securities or interests of Purchaser or any of its affiliates, and (y) comply with all reporting and disclosure requirements of Purchaser or any of its affiliates under applicable federal and state laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as such requirements are interpreted in good faith by Purchaser or any such affiliate.
8.21.2 Without limiting the foregoing, Seller shall use its best efforts to cause its current auditors as soon as possible, but in any event within 45 days of closing, to (i) revise the audited Financial Statements (and any audited financial statements of Live Long Well Care, LLC) to be in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as required for public reporting companies filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission; (ii) provide an unqualified audit opinion with respect to such revised audit, (iii) consent to the inclusion of such opinion in one or more reports or registration statements that may be filed by Purchaser or an affiliate with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or in any offering memorandum or similar disclosure documents in connection with any syndications or private placements, (iv) issue one or more customary comfort letters with respect to financial information of Seller, and
(v)perform a review of any interim financial periods in accordance with AU 722 in order to be able to provide customary comfort with respect to such periods. In the event Seller is unable to cause its current auditors to perform the forgoing, Purchaser or its designated independent or other accountants may audit the Financial Statements and any other financial statements of
Seller, Manager or Live Long Well Care, LLC, and Seller shall supply such documentation in their possession or under their direct or indirect control as Purchaser or its accountants may reasonably request in order to complete such audit, and Seller shall execute the form of audit and representation letter reasonably required by such accountants, and take such other actions as shall be reasonably necessary, in order to (i) permit such accountants to provide an unqualified audit opinion in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles with respect to such audit,
(ii) obtain the consent of such accountants to the inclusion of such opinion in one or more reports or registration statements that may be filed by Purchaser or an affiliate with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or in any offering memorandum or similar disclosure documents in connection with any syndications or private placements, (iii) cause such accounting firm to issue one or more customary comfort letters with respect to financial information of Seller, and (iv) cause such accounting firm to perform a review of any interim financial periods in accordance with AU 722 in order to be able to provide customary comfort with respect to such periods. Seller shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with Purchaser and its affiliates, accountants and auditors in connection with any public or private offering of equity or debt securities which, in Purchaser’s (or such affiliate’s) good faith judgment, may require disclosure of information relating to the Real Property or the Facilities for any period prior to the Closing. In this connection, Seller shall cause to be made reasonably available to Purchaser and its affiliates, accountants and auditors such personnel of Seller or of any affiliate of Seller (including, without limitation, management personnel employed in connection with any of the Real Property) to address questions relating to the financial statements, financial data, and/or the ownership, operation and/or financial performance of the Real Property and the Facilities for any period prior to the Closing.
8.21.3 In addition, from the Execution Date, in connection with any financing sought to be obtained by Purchaser necessary to consummate the transactions described herein, Seller shall reasonably cooperate (and shall cause associated management personnel reasonably to cooperate) to expedite and assist with the consummation of such financing, provided that Purchaser bears any associated third-party expense. Without limitation, such cooperation shall include, upon Purchaser’s request (with Purchaser bearing any associated third-party expenses): establishing special purpose entities and associated structuring changes, implementing documentation and other changes to facilitate “sale” treatment of Purchaser’s acquisition of the Purchased Assets for accounting and/or “true sale” legal purposes, implementing changes in accounts as the lender may reasonably request, and making appropriate personnel reasonably available to address questions and issues.

Seller shall give Purchaser written notice of any fire or other casualty within three (3) business days of the occurrence of same, which notice shall include a description thereof in reasonable detail and an estimate of the cost of and time to repair. In the event of any material (as hereinafter defined) damage to or destruction of any Facility, Purchaser, by written notice delivered to Seller within ten (10) days after receipt of notice from Seller, shall have the option to terminate this Agreement. If Purchaser so elects to terminate this Agreement as a result of such damage or destruction, it shall be required to do so in whole and not only as to the affected Facility, and, in such event, this Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force and effect and neither party shall have any liability to the other hereunder except for those obligations which by their terms specifically survive termination of this Agreement. If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement or if the damage or destruction is not material, then the sale of the Purchased Assets shall be consummated as herein provided without abatement to the Purchase Price and any insurance proceeds payable in connection with such damage or destruction and any repair or reconstruction obligations imposed on Seller shall be handled in the manner set forth in the New Lease. For the purposes hereof, “material” damage or destruction shall include any damage or destruction in an amount more than $5,000,000 as to one Facility or multiple Facilities (including in said amount the amount of any revenues lost as a result of said fire or other casualty).
10.3 Eminent Domain. The risk of any loss or damage to the Purchased Assets by condemnation before the Closing Date hereunder belongs to Seller and Existing Landlord. In the event any condemnation proceeding is commenced or threatened, Seller shall give Purchaser written notice thereof within three (3) business days after the occurrence of same, together with such reasonable details with respect thereto as to which Seller may have knowledge. As soon as the portion or portions of the Purchased Assets to be taken are reasonably determinable, Seller shall give Purchaser written notice thereof together with Seller’s estimate of the value of the portion or portions of the Purchased Assets to be so taken. In the event of any material taking of the Purchased Assets (as hereinafter defined), Purchaser, by written notice delivered to Seller within ten (10) days after Purchaser’s receipt of notice from Seller of the determination of the portion or portions of the Purchased Assets to be taken, shall have the option to terminate this Agreement. If Purchaser so elects to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force and effect and neither party shall have any liability to the other hereunder except for those obligations which by their terms specifically survive termination of this Agreement. For the purposes hereof, a “material” taking shall mean any taking (1) the effect of which would be to require more than $5,000,000 to repair or restore either or both of the Facilities or (2) which would materially impair the use or operation of either or both of the Facilities as determined in the reasonable discretion of Purchaser. If Purchaser shall not so elect to terminate this Agreement or if the taking is not material, then the sale of the Purchased Assets shall be consummated as herein provided without abatement to the Purchase Price, and all awards made in respect of such condemnation and any repair or reconstruction obligations imposed on Seller shall be handled in the manner set forth in the New Lease.

circumstances that relate to any such matter prior to the Closing. Except for the availability of injunctive relief where appropriate and except for remedies for fraud, Purchaser agrees that claims made pursuant to the limitations in this paragraph 15.19 provide the sole and exclusive remedy for Purchaser for or in connection with any breach of warranty or representation, breach or violation of any covenant or agreement, or any other claim, whether in contract, tort or otherwise (including any claim for conspiracy or aiding and abetting any other person), arising directly or indirectly from this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, claims for damages arising from or relating to a breach by Seller of Section 4.4 of this Agreement may be brought at any time following the Closing and such damages shall not be subject to the Cap.
