From and after the date of this Agreement, the Sellers shall permit the Purchaser and its representatives to perform such due diligence with respect to the Properties as the Purchaser deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Such due diligence may include, without limitation, inspections of the Properties (including, without limitation, all roofs, electric, mechanical and structural elements, and HVAC systems), soil analysis and environmental investigations, examinations of the Sellers’ records with respect to the Properties (and the right to make copies of the same), all at such reasonable times as the Purchaser or its representatives may request. Any such due diligence shall be performed in a manner consistent with this Agreement and so as to minimize any interference with the Residents. To the extent that the Purchaser damages or disturbs any Property, the Purchaser shall, to the extent practicable, return such Property to substantially the same condition which existed immediately prior to such damage or disturbance. The Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Sellers from and against any and all expense, loss or damage which the Sellers may incur as a result of any act or omission of the Purchaser or its representatives, agents or contractors, other than any expense, loss or damage to the extent arising from any Seller’s negligence or any act or omission of any Seller during any such inspection.

(b) Promptly upon execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser may arrange for the preparation of one or more ALTA

surveys with respect to the Properties (collectively, the “Survey”) by a licensed surveyor in the jurisdiction(s) in which the Properties are located. Alternatively, the Purchaser may arrange to have any existing surveys in the possession of the Seller recertified to the Purchaser as of a current date or the Purchaser may request that the Sellers provide the Title Company with an affidavit, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Sellers, which certifies that no changes have been made with respect to the location of the Improvements and other matters shown on such existing surveys since the date of the same. In either such case, the existing surveys in the possession of the Sellers shall be deemed to be the “Survey” for purposes of this Agreement.

(c) Prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, the Purchaser shall give the Sellers notice of any title exceptions or survey matters (other than Permitted Exceptions) as to which the Purchaser objects (an “Objection Notice”). Subject to Section 3.2(c), if, for any reason, the Sellers are unable or unwilling to take such actions as may be required to cause such exceptions to be removed from the Title Commitment or the Survey, or to otherwise remedy such matters, the Sellers shall give the Purchaser notice thereof; it being understood and agreed that the failure of the Sellers to give such notice within two (2) Business Days after receiving an Objection Notice shall be deemed an election by the Sellers to cause such removal and remedy (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until the date which is two (2) Business Days after the date on which the Sellers deliver or are deemed to have delivered to such notice). If the Sellers shall be unable or unwilling (or the Sellers are deemed unable or unwilling) to remove any title defects or remedy any survey matters to which the Purchaser has objected, the Purchaser may elect (i) to terminate this Agreement by written notice given to the Sellers at or prior to Closing or (ii) to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby notwithstanding such defect, without any abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price on account of such defect.

(d) In all events, at or prior to Closing, the Sellers shall cure (i) all Voluntary Liens and (ii) all other exceptions identified in an Objection Notice provided the aggregate cost of curing such other exceptions does not exceed SIXTY THREE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($63,500). Nothing contained in this Section 3.2(d) shall be deemed to permit either party to extend the Closing Date, it being acknowledged and agreed that if the Sellers are unable to cure any exception

referred to in clause (ii) above prior to Closing, the Purchaser shall only have the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.2(c) or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding such defect, except that an amount reasonably estimated to be necessary to cure such defect (which amount shall in no event exceed $63,500) shall be retained by the Escrow Agent and paid to the Purchaser to reimburse it for any amounts paid by it to cure such defect.

(e) Further, the Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts (such as furnishing the Title Company with an affidavit which may be required to establish that a lease or other instrument is no longer in effect or applicable to a Property) to have all matters that do not appear to be valid exceptions to any Seller’s title to its Property including, without limitation, references to instruments or documents which on their face or by law are no longer effective and matters which have no apparent applicability to a Property), omitted as exceptions in the Title Commitment.

3.3. Seller’s Diligence Materials. On or prior to the date of this Agreement, the Sellers shall deliver (or shall have delivered) to the Purchaser true, correct and complete copies of all documents required to be delivered by the Sellers under this Agreement, including, without limitation, all Resident Agreements, Leases, Files and Records, Licenses and Permits, environmental reports, title insurance policies, title reports, title commitments and surveys with respect to the Properties as may be in the Seller’s possession or control.

The Purchaser shall coordinate with the Sellers to schedule such reviews and examinations at such reasonable times and in such reasonable places as the parties may reasonably agree upon. In the event that the Closing does not take place as herein contemplated for any reason, the Purchaser shall either (a) return all such copies to the Seller or (b) destroy all such copies.

3.5. Confidentiality. The Purchaser agrees to treat any information which it obtains pursuant to this Article III as

confidential and shall not disclose any such information to any Person, provided there shall be no obligation to treat as confidential information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to the Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure or (b) subsequently becomes known through no act or omission by the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may deliver copies of such information to (i) the Purchaser’s directors, officers, employees, and to its agents and professional consultants, (ii) any Person to whom the Purchaser offers to sell any of the Properties, provided that said Persons agree to be bound by the terms hereof regarding such information, (iii) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Purchaser and which requires such disclosure or (iv) any other Person to which such disclosure or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (A) in compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Person, (B) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, or (C) to the extent that the Purchaser reasonably determines disclosure is necessary in the enforcement of or for the protection of its rights and remedies under this Agreement.

3.6. Termination of Agreement. If the results of the inspections performed by or on behalf of the Purchaser with respect to any Property pursuant to this Article III shall be unsatisfactory to the Purchaser in any respect or if the Purchaser otherwise shall determine not to proceed to Closing, then the Purchaser shall have the right, in the Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, to terminate this Agreement in whole but not in part at any time prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period by giving written notice thereof to the Sellers, in which event this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and neither party shall have any liability to the other hereunder and the Escrow Agent shall refund the Deposit to the Purchaser promptly upon its receipt of the Purchaser’s request therefor.

To the extent that any portion of the Payable Holdback Amount has not been applied to any such accounts payable, the Purchaser shall remit such portion of the Payable Holdback Amount to the Sellers together with such accounting.

SECTION X. DAMAGE TO OR CONDEMNATION OF PROPERTY

10.1. Casualty. If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of any Property is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, the Sellers shall promptly notify the Purchaser of such fact. If any such casualty shall damage all or any material portion of such Property, then the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety or with respect to such affected Property by giving notice thereof to the Sellers not later than ten (10) days after the date on which the Purchaser receives the Sellers’ notice as aforesaid (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until two (2) Business Days after the expiration of such ten-day period). If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement in its entirety

as aforesaid, then the Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to the Purchaser, and, upon the Purchaser’s receipt of the Deposit, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and neither party shall have any liability to the other hereunder. If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement only with respect to the affected Property as aforesaid, then the Escrow Agent shall retain the entire Deposit (subject to the terms of this Agreement), the Sellers and the Purchaser shall reasonably agree upon the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the affected Property and this Agreement shall terminate with respect to the affected Property only and all other terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, except that the Purchase Price hereunder shall be reduced by the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the affected Property. If any such casualty shall damage less than a material portion of any Property or if the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, then there shall be no abatement of the Purchase Price and the applicable Seller shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing all of such Seller’s rights to the insurance proceeds, if any, under such Seller’s insurance policies covering the Property with respect to such damage or destruction and there shall be credited against the Purchase Price following: (a) the amounts of any applicable insurance deductibles; (b) the amounts of any proceeds previously received by such Seller; and (c) the amounts of any deficiency of proceeds.

10.2. Condemnation. If, prior to the Closing, all or any part of any Property is taken by eminent domain (or is the subject of a pending taking which has not yet been consummated), the Sellers shall promptly notify the Purchaser of such fact. If such taking affects all or any material portion of such Property (including any access or parking), then the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its entirety or with respect to such affected Property by giving notice thereof to the Sellers not later than ten (10) days after the date on which the Purchaser receives the Sellers’ notice as aforesaid (and, if necessary, the Closing Date shall be extended until two (2) Business Days after the expiration of such ten-day period). If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement in its entirety as aforesaid, then the Deposit shall be returned to the Purchaser, and, upon the Purchaser’s receipt of the Deposit, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect and neither party shall have any liability to the other hereunder. If the Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement only with respect to the affected Property as aforesaid, then the Escrow Agent shall retain the entire Deposit (subject to the

terms of this Agreement), the Sellers and the Purchaser shall reasonably agree upon the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the affected Property and this Agreement shall terminate with respect to the affected Property only and all other terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, except that the Purchase Price hereunder shall be reduced by the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the affected Property. If less than a material portion of the Property shall be affected by a taking or if the Purchaser shall not elect to terminate this Agreement as aforesaid, the sale of the Property shall be consummated as herein provided without any adjustment to the Purchase Price (except to the extent of any condemnation award received by the Seller prior to the Closing) and the applicable Seller shall assign to the Purchaser at the Closing all of such Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all awards, if any, for the taking, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and keep all awards for the taking of the Property or portion thereof.

10.3 Survival. The parties’ obligations, if any, under this Article 10 shall survive the Closing.

SECTION XI. DEFAULT

11.1. Default by the Seller. If any Seller shall have made any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any material respect, or if any Seller shall fail to perform any of the material covenants and agreements contained herein to be performed by such Seller, then the Purchaser, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may elect to either (a) terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Deposit and receive from the Seller reimbursement for the Purchaser’s out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement or (b) pursue a suit for specific performance; provided, however, if the Purchaser is unsuccessful in its suit for specific performance it shall nevertheless be entitled to the remedies provided in clause (a) above. Nothing contained in this Section 11.1 shall preclude the Purchaser from availing itself of any remedy available to it at law or in equity with respect to any breach of representation or warranty or any failure to perform any covenant or agreement required to be performed by any Seller which occurs or is discovered after the Closing.

11.2. Default by the Purchaser. If the Purchaser shall have made any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any material respect, or if the Purchaser shall fail to perform any of the covenants and

agreements contained herein to be performed by it, the Seller, as its sole and exclusive remedy prior to Closing, may terminate this Agreement and retain the Deposit, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty. Nothing contained in this Section 11.2 shall preclude the Sellers from availing themselves of any remedy available to it at law or in equity with respect to any breach of representation or warranty or any failure to perform any covenant or agreement required to be performed by the Purchaser which occurs or is discovered after the Closing.

SECTION XII. MISCELLANEOUS

themselves actually in conflict with such constitution, statute or rule of public policy, but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if such invalid, inoperative or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and such provision reformed so that it would be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in such jurisdiction or in such case.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Purchaser’s consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, do covenant and agree as follows:

Section 1. Definitions. Terms used in this Agreement which are not defined herein but which are defined in the Purchase Agreement shall have the respective meanings so defined in the Purchase Agreement.

“Affiliate” shall mean, when used with respect to any Person, (a) any other Person at the time directly or indirectly

controlling, controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such Person, (b) any other Person of which such Person at the time owns, or has the right to acquire, directly or indirectly, five percent (5%) or more on a consolidated basis of the equity or beneficial interest, (c) any other Person which at the time owns, or has the right to acquire, directly or indirectly, five percent (5%) or more of any class of the capital stock or beneficial interest of such Person, (d) any executive officer or director of such Person, and (e) when used with respect to an individual, shall include a spouse, any ancestor or descendant, or any other relative (by blood, adoption or marriage), within the third degree of such individual any member of such individual’s Immediate Family. A Person shall be deemed to be “controlled by” any other Person if such other Person possesses, directly or indirectly, power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such Person or the disposition of its assets or properties, whether by stock, equity or other ownership, by contract, arrangement or understanding, or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the term “Affiliate” be deemed to refer to Health Care REIT, Inc.

“Covered Territory” shall mean all areas that are within the following counties in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania: Allegheny County, Beaver County and Washington County.

“Entity” shall mean any corporation, firm, unincorporated organization, limited liability company, association, partnership, a trust (inter vivos or testamentary), an estate of a deceased, insane or incompetent individual, business trust, joint stock company, joint venture or other organization, entity or business, whether acting in an individual, fiduciary or other capacity, or any governmental authority.

“Person” shall mean any natural individual or any Entity.

D-2

“Proscribed Activity” shall mean any and all activities related to the ownership, operation, leasing, construction or management of nursing homes, assisted living facilities, Alzheimer’s care centers. The Proscribed Activity shall include soliciting employment from any Seller Employees.

“Restricted Period” shall mean a period ending on the third (3^rd) anniversary of the date hereof.

Section 2. Restriction. Gordon agrees that during the Restricted Period:

(a) Neither he nor any member of his Immediate Family will be interested, directly or indirectly, as an investor in any other Entity, business or enterprise within the Covered Territory, which is engaged in any Proscribed Activity (except as an investor in securities listed on a national securities exchange or actively traded over the counter so long as such investments are in amounts not significant as compared to his total investments and do not exceed one percent (1%) of the outstanding securities of the issuer of the same class or issue);

(b) He will not, directly or indirectly, for his own account or as employee, officer, director, partner, trustee, principal, member, joint venturer, agent, adviser, consultant or otherwise, engage within the Covered Territory, in any phase of any Proscribed Activity; and

(c) He will not, directly or indirectly, solicit business for a Proscribed Activity within the Covered Territory from any Person, business or enterprise which is, or proposes to be, a tenant of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates within the Covered Territory, or induce any such Person, business or enterprise not to undertake, or to curtail or cancel business with the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, or induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Purchaser, any Affiliate of the Purchaser or any of their respective successors or assigns to terminate his employment therewith.

Gordon and the Purchaser are of the belief that the Restricted Period, the Proscribed Activity and the Covered Territory herein specified are reasonable, in light of the circumstances as they exist on the date upon which this Agreement has been executed, including without limitation the nature of the business in which the Purchaser is engaged. However, if such period, activity or area should be adjudged unreasonable in any Legal Action, whether at law or in equity,

D-3

then the Restricted Period shall be reduced by such period of time, the Proscribed Activity shall be reduced by such activities, or the Covered Territory shall be reduced by such area, or any combination thereof, as are deemed unreasonable, so that this covenant may be enforced in such area, with respect to such activities and during such period of time as is adjudged to be reasonable.

Section 3. Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a) Assignment; Successors and Assigns. In the event that the Purchaser shall be merged with, or consolidated into, any other Entity, or in the event that it shall sell and transfer substantially all of its assets to another Entity, the terms of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be assumed by, the Entity resulting from such merger or consolidation, or to which the Purchaser’s assets shall be sold and transferred. This Agreement shall not be assignable by Gordon, but it shall be binding upon Gordon’s heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives to the extent they constitute members of his Immediate Family. Nothing in this Agreement expressed or implied is intended to and shall not be construed to confer upon or create in any person (other than the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns) any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Specific Performance; Other Rights and Remedies. Gordon recognizes and agrees that the Purchaser’s remedy at law for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 2 would be inadequate, and he agrees that for breach of such provisions, the Purchaser shall, in addition to such other remedies as may be available to it at law or in equity or as provided in this Agreement, be entitled to seek and obtain injunctive relief and to enforce its rights by an action for specific performance to the extent permitted by applicable law. The parties agree, in pursuing any other remedies available to it or him for such breach or threatened breach, not to seek recovery of any damages other than actual damages.

(c) Entire Agreement.

(d) Waivers; Amendments. Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, changes in or additions to this Agreement may be made, or compliance with any term, covenant, agreement, condition or provision set forth herein may be omitted or waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the consent in writing of the parties hereto. Any consent may be given subject to satisfaction of conditions stated therein. The failure to insist upon the strict provisions of any covenant, term, condition or other provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy thereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any such covenant, term, condition or other provision thereof or default in connection therewith. The waiver of any covenant, term, condition or other provision thereof or default thereunder shall not affect or alter this Agreement in any other respect, and each and every covenant, term, condition or other provision of this Agreement shall, in such event, continue in full force and effect, except as so waived, and shall be operative with respect to any other then existing or subsequent default in connection therewith.

(f) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the conflicting of any provision with any constitution or statute or rule of public policy or for any other reason, such circumstance shall not have the effect of rendering the provision or provisions in question invalid, inoperative, illegal or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or in any other case or circumstance or of rendering any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative, illegal or unenforceable to the extent that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with such constitution, statute or rule of public policy, but this Agreement shall be reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if such invalid, inoperative, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and such provision reformed so that it would be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in such jurisdiction or in such case, except when such reformation and construction could operate as an undue hardship on either party, or constitute a substantial deviation from the general intent and purpose of such party as reflected in this Agreement. The parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, inoperative, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid, operative, legal and enforceable provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, inoperative, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

(g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same

D-6

instrument, binding upon all the parties hereto. In pleading or proving any provision of this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce more than one of such counterparts.

(h) Section Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(i) Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the applicable laws of the United States of America and the domestic substantive laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule that would cause the application of domestic substantive laws of any other jurisdiction. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event of any dispute between the parties which results in a Legal Action, the prevailing party shall be entitled to receive from the non-prevailing party reimbursement for reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by such prevailing party in such Legal Action.

(j) Further Acts. Each party agrees that at any time, and from time to time, before and after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, it will do all such things and execute and deliver all such agreements, assignments, instruments, other documents and assurances, as any other party or its counsel reasonably deems necessary or desirable in order to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or to facilitate the enjoyment of any of the rights created hereby or to be created hereunder.

(k) Gender. Whenever used herein the singular number shall include the plural, the plural shall include the singular, and the use of any gender shall include all genders.

(l) Consultation with Counsel; No Representations. Gordon agrees and acknowledges that he has had a full and complete opportunity to consult with counsel of his own choosing concerning the terms, enforceability and implications of this Agreement, and that the Purchaser has made no representations or warranties to him concerning the terms, enforceability or implications of this Agreement other than as are reflected in this Agreement.
