Other Events On January 30, 1997, the Registrant ("Company" or "Magellan") announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to sell substantially all of its domestic hospital real estate and related personal property (the "Assets") to Crescent Real Estate Equities Limited Partnership ("Crescent"). In addition, the Company's domestic portion of its provider business segment will be operated as a joint venture ("CBHS") that is initially owned equally by Magellan and Crescent Operating, Inc., an affiliate of Crescent ("COI"). The Company will receive $400 million in cash (before costs estimated to be $12.5 million) subject to adjustment, and warrants in COI for the purchase of 2.5% of the COI's common stock, exercisable over 12 years, as consideration for the Assets. In addition to the Assets, Crescent and COI will each receive 1,283,311 warrants (2,566,622 warrants in aggregate) to purchase Magellan Common Stock at $30 per share, exercisable over 12 years. In related agreements, (i) Crescent will lease the real estate and related assets to CBHS for annual rent beginning at $40 million, subject to adjustment, with a 5% annual escalation clause compounded annually and (ii) CBHS will pay Magellan approximately $81 million in annual franchise fees, subject to increase, for the use of assets retained by Magellan and for support in certain areas. The franchise fees to be paid by CBHS to the Company will be subordinated to the lease obligations in favor of Crescent. The assets retained by Magellan include, but are not limited to, the "CHARTER" name, intellectual property, protocols and procedures, clinical quality management, operating processes and the "1-800-CHARTER" telephone call center. Magellan will provide CBHS ongoing support in areas including managed care contracting services, advertising and marketing assistance, risk management services, outcomes monitoring, and consultation on matters relating to reimbursement, government relations, clinical strategies, regulatory matters, strategic planning and business development. The Company intends to initially use the proceeds from the sale of the Assets to reduce its long-term debt, including borrowings under its Revolving Credit Agreement. Under the terms of its Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") indenture the Noteholders will have the right to put their Notes to the Company at 101% of face value. The Company intends to maintain adequate cash reserves and borrowing capacity to extinguish all the Notes, if necessary. The Noteholders right to put the Notes will expire up to 70 days subsequent to the consummation of the Crescent Transactions. The Company intends to use the remaining proceeds from the sale of the Assets, if any after debt reductions, to pursue acquisitions in its managed care and public sector business segments, develop new products and increase managed care and public sector marketing efforts. The Company will account for its 50% investment in CBHS under the equity method of accounting. The Company expects to record a loss before income taxes of approximately $45 million to $55 million as a result of these proposed transactions, including, but not limited to, the write-off of certain hospital-based intangible assets, collection fees associated with accounts receivable and certain restructuring and exit costs offset by the gain or loss on the sale of the Assets. These transactions are subject to approval by Magellan stockholders and other customary closing conditions, including the negotiation of certain financing matters. Item 7.

Title. 5.1 Condition of Title. Purchaser shall determine that title to the Facilities is good and marketable of record and in fact. Title shall be conveyed in fee simple, by the form of Warranty Deed customary in each of the jurisdictions in which the Facilities are located, as reasonably determined by the Title Company (as defined in Section 8) or the mutual agreement of the parties, with limited or special warranty of title unless such form of warranty is not customary in the relevant jurisdiction(s) or adversely affects the insurability of title (collectively, the "Deeds"), with customary covenants, free and clear of any and all liens, tenancies, restrictions, easements, options, unrecorded agreements, encroachments, or other encumbrances of any kind whatsoever, except for the following (the "Permitted Exceptions"): (i) those matters approved or deemed approved by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.2; (ii) liens securing the Industrial Revenue Bonds that the Purchaser assumes at Closing, (iii) liens for ad valorem taxes and general or special assessments not yet due and payable as of the Closing Date (as defined below), (iv) building and zoning restrictions applicable to the Facilities, and (v) other exceptions which in the reasonable judgment of the Purchaser do not impair in any material respect the use or enjoyment of the Facilities as currently operated or as proposed to be operated under the Transaction Documents. 5.2 Title Objections. The Purchaser shall promptly after the date hereof order a title commitment for and survey of each of the Facilities. The Seller shall be obligated to pay the costs of title examinations, title insurance and surveys, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such obligation shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Within fifteen (15) business days after the Purchaser has received all of the title commitments and surveys, the Purchaser shall notify Magellan in writing of any matters listed in the title commitments or depicted (or not depicted) on the surveys (including, without limitation, flood plains) of which the Purchaser disapproves except for the Permitted Exceptions (the "Objections"), provided, however, that in no event shall the Purchaser have the right to disapprove or object to any flood plain matter with respect to any Facility unless (i) an ordinance, law, rule or regulation applicable to said Facility provides that such Facility may not be rebuilt following a casualty because such Facility is located in a flood plain, or (ii) the Purchaser reasonably determines that the uninsured cost to rebuild would be unduly burdensome or the flood risk cannot be insured - xii - at reasonable rates. If the Purchaser so notifies Magellan of any Objections, then, within a reasonable period of time after such notice, the Seller shall take all action necessary to eliminate or cure such Objections or to make arrangements, satisfactory to the Purchaser, to have such Objections eliminated or cured prior to the Closing. If the Seller is unable or unwilling to eliminate or cure all such Objections, or to make satisfactory arrangements to have same eliminated or cured prior to the Closing to the Purchaser's satisfaction, and the Purchaser does not waive the Seller's failure to eliminate or cure such Objections as provided in Section 8.1, then the Purchaser shall have the right, at its sole option, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of such election to Magellan. Upon the giving of any such termination notice, this Agreement shall terminate, and all rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereunder shall be released and discharged. If the Purchaser fails to object to any matter within such fifteen (15) business day period or thereafter waives it Objections, such matters shall be deemed approved and shall constitute Permitted Exceptions hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller shall have the absolute obligation, whether or not the Purchaser objects, to cure or remove of record or, with the Purchaser's consent, obtain affirmative coverage over the following matters at or before the Closing: (a) all mortgages or deeds of trust affecting the Facilities, except those securing the Industrial Revenue Bonds that the Purchaser assumes at Closing; (b) all past due ad valorem taxes and assessments of any kind constituting a lien against the Facilities; (c) all mechanic's, materialmen's and similar liens; and (d) all judgments constituting a lien against the Facilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable bests efforts to deliver Objections to the Seller on a Facility by Facility basis within fifteen (15) business days following the Purchaser's receipt of a title commitment and survey for each Facility. 5.3 Option to Assume IRBs. The parties acknowledge that some of the Facilities are encumbered by liens securing certain Industrial Revenue Bonds (the "Industrial Revenue Bonds"). A schedule listing the outstanding principal and accrued interest amounts of the Industrial Revenue Bond or Bonds associated with each Facility is attached hereto as Exhibit D. The Purchaser shall have the option to assume any or all of such Industrial Revenue Bonds if such assumption is permissible under the documents governing the terms of any such Industrial Revenue Bond proposed to be assumed and such assumption can be made without adversely affecting the tax-exempt status of the Industrial Revenue Bond to be assumed, provided that the Seller is completely released from all liability thereunder and any letters of credit posted by the Seller as additional security for repayment thereof are released and returned on behalf of Magellan. Any Industrial Revenue Bonds that the Purchaser does not assume at Closing shall be paid off or defeased by Magellan at Closing, the Facilities encumbered thereby shall be conveyed free and clear of all liens securing same, and Magellan shall be solely responsible for all prepayment penalties and other costs associated with such repayment or defeasance. The Purchaser shall notify Magellan in writing by March 5, 1997, as to which Industrial Revenue Bonds, if any, it wishes to assume.

Representations and Warranties. 6.1 Seller's Representations and Warranties. In order to induce the Purchaser to execute this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and to proceed to Closing, Magellan hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Purchaser, all of which are true as of the date hereof: (a) Organization and Enforceability.

The person or persons who have executed this Agreement on behalf of Magellan and each Subco have full power and authority to sign the Transaction Documents. (b) Consents and Approvals. Except as described on Schedule 6.1(b) attached hereto, there are no consents, approvals, or authorizations that are material to the continued operation of the businesses conducted at the Facilities required from any person, entity, governmental or quasi-governmental authority, or required by law or agreement, with respect to the Seller's execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the Transactions by Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that it shall be the Purchaser's responsibility to obtain, or to obtain the transfer of, all Permits required for the Purchaser to own, hold and lease the Facilities to OpCo, and it shall be Magellan's responsibility to obtain, or to obtain the transfer of, for and on behalf of OpCo, all Permits required for the continued operation by OpCo of the businesses currently conducted at the Facilities. - xiv - (c) Title to Real Property. Except for Real Property that will be conveyed by the Seller to the Purchaser as part of the Facilities, neither Magellan nor any of the Subcos or their affiliates owns any parcel of land which is contiguous with any of the Real Property of the Facilities. (d) Title to Personal Property. None of the Personal Property is held by Magellan or the Subcos under a lease or installment sale contract, except for installment sales agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, and Magellan and/or the Subcos owns title to the Personal Property reflected on the inventory to be delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 3 free and clear of any liens or claims, except for liens and claims arising under or by virtue of the above-referenced installment sales agreements and except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(d). (e) Litigation; Other Proceedings. No portion of the Real Property of any Facility has been condemned or taken in any condemnation or similar proceeding.

There are no proceedings pending, or to the Seller's knowledge threatened, which may result in the revocation, cancellation or suspension, or any adverse modification, of any Permit. No bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar action involving any Facility or any Subco or Magellan, whether voluntary or involuntary, is pending or to the Seller's knowledge threatened, and neither any Subco nor Magellan has any intention of filing any such action or proceeding. (f) Violations of Agreements. None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by Magellan or any Subco, the consummation by Magellan or any Subco of the Transactions or compliance by Magellan or any Subco with any of the provisions hereof or thereof will (i) conflict with or result in any breach of any provisions of the formation documents of Magellan or such Subco; (ii) except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(f), result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default (or give rise to any right to termination, cancellation or acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease, license, contract, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which Magellan or any Subco is a party or by which any of them or any of the Facilities may be bound; or (iii) except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(f), violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to any of them or any of the Facilities; except in the case of clauses (ii) or (iii) above, for violations, breach or - xv - defaults (A) that would not in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Seller and on the effectiveness of the Transactions or (B) for which waivers or consents have been or will be obtained on or prior to the Closing Date.

(m) Material Changes. The Seller has not received written notice from any governmental or quasi-governmental authority of any pending or contemplated change in any regulation, code, ordinance or law, or private restriction applicable to any of the Facilities which would result in any material adverse effect on the condition of any of the Facilities, or would in any material respect limit or impede the operation of any of the Facilities.

Damage, Destruction and Condemnation. 9.1 Damage; Destruction. In the event of any loss, damage or destruction to any Facility prior to Closing, Magellan shall immediately notify the Purchaser thereof and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repair and restoration thereof to substantially its condition prior to such casualty.

Closing. 10.1 Closing Date. The consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the "Closing") shall occur at the offices of King & Spalding, 191 Peachtree Street, Atlanta, Georgia 30303-1763, or at such other location upon which Magellan and the Purchaser agree, at 10:00 a.m. on May 31, 1997, or such earlier or later date upon which Magellan and the Purchaser agree (the "Closing Date"); provided, however, that in the event that the Closing has not occurred by June 30, 1997, either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other. Upon delivery of such notice, this Agreement shall terminate, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be released and discharged, except that Magellan and the Purchaser shall each remain liable to the other for all damages suffered by the other if the failure to close was due to a breach by one party of any of the covenants, obligations, representations or warranties of such party in this Agreement or any other failure by such party to use commercially reasonable best efforts to satisfy conditions precedent to Closing that are within the control of such party to satisfy. 10.2 Seller's Obligations at Closing.

(b) Title Policies. For purposes of this Section 10.2(b), a "Typical Owner's Policy" shall mean a standard Extended Coverage A.L.T.A. Form B Policy of Owner's Title Insurance (10-17-70 revision with '84 amendments), or other form of owner's title insurance policy reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser available in a state where such A.L.T.A. Form B is not available and most closely resembling such A.L.T.A. Form B. Magellan will cause the Title Company to issue to the Purchaser a Typical Owner's Policy with respect to each Facility, in the amount of the Purchase Price allocated to each such Facility in accordance with Section 2.2, and insuring that the Purchaser has fee simple title to each Facility, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions (a "Title Policy"). In addition, each Title Policy shall contain affirmative coverage with respect to mechanics' liens (or any reference to such liens in the general provisions or elsewhere shall be deleted), and each Title Policy shall include the following endorsements to coverage to the extent available and commonly used for title insurance covering real property in the state where the applicable Facility is located: access, survey, contiguity, zoning (ALTA 3.1), subdivision, an endorsement deleting creditor's rights exceptions to coverage, and such other endorsements as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser (the "Endorsements"). The Seller shall execute and deliver to the Title Company a customary form of affidavit and other documents and agreements (to the extent required by the Title Company in order for the Title Company to issue the Title Policies) certifying (a) the absence of claims which would give rise to mechanic's and materialmen's liens, (b) that the Seller and the tenants under the Leases are the only parties in possession of the Facilities, and (c) that there are no pending or outstanding suits or judgments against either the Seller or the Facilities, except as disclosed to the Title Company and for which the Title Company has not taken exception. The Seller shall also deliver to the Title Company such evidence as may be required with respect to the authority of the person executing the deeds of conveyance and other items necessary to issue title insurance to the Purchaser or the Purchaser's designee(s). In addition, Magellan and each Subco shall furnish to the Purchaser and the Title Company a certificate to the effect that none of them is a foreign person, corporation, partnership, trust or estate under Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code. If Magellan or any Subco fails or refuses to provide such certificate, the Title Company or Escrow Agent shall have the right to make such deductions from the Seller's proceeds at Closing and to remit such amounts to the Internal Revenue Service as are required by the Federal Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder. (c) Original Documents. Seller will deliver at the corporate headquarters of OpCo or the Facilities, as appropriate, to Purchaser or OpCo, as appropriate, originals within Seller's possession of all items enumerated in Section 3 of this Agreement. (d) Possession. Seller will deliver possession of the Facilities, subject to the Leases. - xxxi - (e) Keys. Seller shall furnish to OpCo duplicate keys and master keys to all locks located on the Facilities, properly tagged for identification, as well as combinations, card keys and cards for the security systems, if any.

The Purchaser will execute, acknowledge (if necessary), and deliver an Assignment of Leases in the form and substance of Exhibit H and an updated certificate executed by the Purchaser remaking and reaffirming all representations and warranties made by the Purchaser to the Seller in accordance with the provisions of Section 6. (c) Additional Documents. The Purchaser will execute and deliver or obtain for delivery to the Title Company any instruments reasonably necessary to consummate this Agreement, including by way of example, evidence of the authority of the party executing instruments on behalf of the Purchaser. (d) Costs. The Purchaser will pay all costs allocated to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 10.4. 10.4 Costs and Adjustments at Closing. If the prorations and adjustments provided for in this Section 10.4 impose post-Closing obligations or liabilities on OpCo, Magellan covenants to use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause OpCo to perform such obligations and satisfy such liabilities in a timely manner, which covenant shall survive Closing. (a) Expenses. The Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid all fees of consultants, appraisers, and engineers rendering reports or opinions to the Purchaser, and all other costs incurred by the Purchaser, in connection with the Purchaser's due diligence investigation of the Facilities, except that the Seller shall pay the costs and fees of environmental consultants and engineers retained to perform Phase I environmental audits and, if necessary or advisable in the reasonable opinion of the Purchaser, Phase II environmental audits and prepare environmental reports on the Facilities. The Purchaser shall also pay all costs and fees associated with the assumption of any Industrial Revenue Bonds that Purchaser assumes at Closing, including, without limitation, assumption fees, mortgage fees, mortgage recordation fees, and mortgagees' title insurance costs. The Seller shall pay the cost of preparing the Deeds and other conveyancing documents, the costs associated with releasing any encumbrances of record, all grantor's taxes, transfer taxes, county taxes, - xxxi - clerks' fees, documentary stamps, release fees, recordation taxes associated with the Deeds and other conveyancing documents, escrow fees charged by the Escrow Agent or Title Company, and the costs and fees for the title examinations, title insurance (including any affirmative coverages and endorsements required by the Purchaser), and surveys. Each party shall pay its own attorneys' fees, including local counsel fees. (b) Real Estate Taxes. Real estate taxes on the Real Property for the calendar year of the Closing will be prorated between Magellan and OpCo as of the Closing Date. If the amount of such taxes is not known at Closing, the proration of such real estate taxes will be based on the amount of such taxes for the previous real estate tax fiscal period. As soon as the actual amount of real estate taxes on the Facilities for the year of Closing is known, the Seller and OpCo will readjust the amount of such taxes to be paid by each party with the result that the Seller will pay for those taxes applicable to the Real Property up to and including the date of Closing and OpCo will pay for those taxes and assessments applicable to the Real Property after the date of Closing. The provisions of this Section 10.4(b) will survive the Closing. (c) Rents. All rents, additional rents and other sums actually paid under the Leases for the month of Closing will be prorated between Magellan and OpCo as of the Closing Date, provided that delinquent amounts will not be considered in such calculation. All rents, percentage rents, real estate taxes and other costs or charges paid by tenants under the Leases after the Closing will first be applied to such charges as are then due and then applied in their reverse order of accrual until applied in full. Any amounts that are to be applied to periods prior to Closing will be delivered by OpCo to the Seller within thirty (30) days after receipt, net of any costs incurred by OpCo in collecting such amounts (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees). OpCo will have no obligation to incur any cost or expense or institute any litigation to collect delinquent rents, percentage rents, or other costs or charges owed to the Seller, and the Seller will not exercise any right to collect such amounts unless OpCo fails to use reasonable efforts to collect same. In any event, the Seller will not institute suit against any tenant under the Leases. The provisions of this Section 10.4(c) will survive the Closing. (d) Security Deposits. The Seller will pay to OpCo, in cash at Closing or as a credit against the Purchase Price, the amount of any security deposits paid pursuant to the Leases. (e) Other Expenses. All other ordinary operating expenses for or pertaining to the Facilities, including, but not limited to, public utility charges, maintenance, service charges, and lease commissions, will be prorated as of the Closing Date between the Seller and OpCo, it being understood and agreed that revenues resulting from operation of the Facilities prior to Closing will belong to Magellan and revenues resulting from operation of the Facilities from and after Closing will belong to the Purchaser; provided, however, that the Seller shall pay in full any and all special assessments which have either been levied or are pending against the Facilities or any part thereof as of the Closing Date, except if such - xxxi - assessments are due in installments, in which event the Seller shall only be responsible for paying such installments due prior to the Closing. OpCo shall be responsible for the installments due after Closing. The Seller shall pay in full any and all leasing commissions or other compensation with respect to all Leases and other tenancies in effect as of the Closing Date, including commissions which are or may become due on account of options, renewals or extensions. (f) Adjustment. To the extent that errors are discovered in, or additional information becomes available with respect to, the prorations and allocations made at Closing, the Seller and OpCo shall make such post-Closing adjustments as may be necessary to correct any inaccuracy; however, all prorations (except for ad valorem taxes) will be final within ninety (90) days after Closing. Magellan agrees to deliver to OpCo all invoices and payments related to the Facilities received by the Seller after Closing and relating to periods after the Closing. In addition, Magellan shall give the Purchaser written notice of any payments received by the Seller (other than from OpCo) after Closing relating to periods prior to the Closing in order to facilitate OpCo's collection of and accounting for Magellan's receivables after Closing in accordance with the OpCo Contribution Agreement. 10.5 Settlement Statement. At the Closing, the Purchaser and the Seller shall execute and deliver duplicate originals of a settlement statement (the "Settlement Statement") showing all of the payments, adjustments and prorations provided herein and otherwise agreed upon by them. 11. Indemnifications. 11.1 Purchaser's Indemnity. The Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify the Seller against, and to hold the Seller harmless from, all claims, demands, causes of action, losses, damages, obligations, debts, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements actually incurred) (collectively, "Claims") asserted against or incurred by the Seller in connection with or arising out of (a) the ownership, maintenance or operation of the Facilities and attributable to events occurring on or after the Closing, during the Purchaser's ownership of the Facilities, and at any time after the Purchaser or any of its affiliates (other than OpCo) takes over the operation of the Facilities following an Event of Default under the Facilities Lease, or (b) a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement not disclosed to or actually known by the Seller at or before Closing.

If prior to Closing the Seller defaults in any of its obligations, representations or warranties hereunder, whether or not such obligation, representation or warranty survives Closing, and such default is not disclosed to or actually known by the Purchaser at or prior to Closing, then the Purchaser may seek recovery of all of its direct, actual damages incurred as a result of the Seller's default (subject to any applicable limitations set forth in Section 11.2) as well as such other relief as may be available at law or in equity, and the Purchaser will not be - xxxv - deemed to have waived its right to sue for damages by having closed this transaction even though the accuracy of representations and warranties was a condition precedent to the Purchaser's obligation to close. 12.2 Default by Purchaser. If the Closing fails to occur as a result of the Purchaser's material breach of this Agreement, then the Seller may (i) enforce specific performance of the Purchaser's obligation to close under this Agreement, or (ii) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to the Purchaser prior to or at the Closing, in which event the Seller shall also be entitled to seek its direct, actual damages against the Purchaser for such default as well as such other relief as may be available at law or in equity. If prior to Closing the Purchaser defaults in any of its obligations, representations or warranties hereunder, whether or not such obligation, representation or warranty survives Closing, and such default is not disclosed to or actually known by the Seller at or prior to Closing, then the Seller may seek recovery of all of its direct, actual damages incurred as a result of the Purchaser's default (subject to any applicable limitations set forth in Section 11.2) as well as such other relief as may be available at law or in equity, and the Seller will not be deemed to have waived its right to sue for damages by having closed this transaction even though the accuracy of representations and warranties was a condition precedent to the Seller's obligation to close. 12.3 Arbitration.

Each party agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any claim arising out of a breach of the foregoing agreement and representation and warranty. - xxxv - 14. Changes in the Portfolio. 14.1 Pre-Closing. (a) Addition of New Facilities. Except as set forth below, in the event Magellan, any Subco, or any other subsidiary of Magellan at any time after December 26, 1996, and prior to Closing desires to acquire any additional behavioral healthcare in-patient facilities (the "New Facilities"), which Magellan or such subsidiary intends to own and/or operate in a manner substantially similar to the Facilities, the Purchaser shall have the right to require Magellan or such subsidiary to add such New Facility to the Facilities being acquired hereunder, in which event the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount actually paid or required to be paid by Magellan or such subsidiary for such New Facility. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (i) the purchase by Magellan or any subsidiary of Magellan of Parkwood Hospital in Olive Branch, Mississippi, (ii) acquisitions by Green Spring Health Services, Inc., or (iii) acquisitions by Magellan or any subsidiary of Magellan of facilities the primary purpose of which is to provide services pursuant to contracts with federal, state and local governments and governmental agencies, providing health and human services, including behavioral healthcare services, to the mentally retarded, the developmentally disabled, the elderly, persons under the control or supervision of criminal/juvenile justice systems and other designated populations. If the Purchaser does not want to add the New Facility to the Facilities being acquired hereunder, then, subject to compliance with the provisions of other Transaction Documents, Magellan shall be entitled to acquire such New Facility. If Magellan acquires such New Facility, then simultaneously with Closing Magellan shall enter into a management agreement with OpCo covering such New Facility, pursuant to which OpCo shall manage and operate such New Facility in exchange for payment by Magellan to OpCo of OpCo's costs plus a fair market value management fee. Magellan shall negotiate such management fee with OpCo in good faith. If Magellan and OpCo are unable to agree upon a fair market value management fee, then such dispute shall be resolved by appraisal in the manner provided for determining the Fair Market Value of the Franchise (as such terms are defined in the Franchise Agreement), as set forth in Section 4.4 of the Franchise Agreement, except that the term "Qualified Appraiser" used therein, for purposes of determining a fair market value management fee pursuant to this Section 14.1(a), shall mean an appraiser who is not in control of, controlled by or under common control with either the Seller or OpCo and has not been an employee of the Seller or OpCo or any Affiliate (as defined in the Franchise Agreement) of the Seller or OpCo at any time, who is qualified to appraise the fair market value of the management fee and has been actively engaged in the appraisal of assets, rights and businesses, and, to the extent it is reasonably practicable to locate such an appraiser, an appraiser who has been actively engaged in the appraisal of management fee arrangements for healthcare operations, in the state in which the New Facility is located and who has held his or her - xxxv - five (5) years immediately preceding his or her appointment hereunder. (b) Substitution of Facilities. Magellan shall have the right at any time not later than thirty (30) days prior to Closing to substitute a Comparable Facility (as hereinafter defined) for any Facility it designates (a "Designated Facility"), provided that such substitution will satisfy the Purchaser's requirements related to taxation as a real estate investment trust. The Purchaser may demand, at Magellan's expense, a reasonably acceptable opinion of counsel or private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that the substitution will have no material adverse tax consequences to the Purchaser. As used herein, the term "Comparable Facility" shall mean a facility reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser, operated as the same type of business as the Facilities, with an expected future profitability substantially equivalent to or greater than that of the Designated Facility both immediately prior to such substitution and as reasonably projected over the term of the Facilities Lease, taking into account any relevant factors. Magellan shall pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any substitution of facilities, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. After the substitution, a Comparable Facility shall be treated as if it were a Facility under this Agreement. (c) Closed Facilities. If the Seller elects to close and cease its business operations in one or more Facilities prior to Closing, such closed Facility(ies) shall nevertheless be included in the Facilities to be acquired hereunder, without adjustment in the Purchase Price, and at Closing shall be included among the Collective Leased Properties (as defined in the Facilities Lease) covered by the Facilities Lease, without adjustment to the Rent (as defined in the Facilities Lease) payable thereunder. 14.2 Post-Closing. In the event Magellan, any Subco, or any other subsidiary of Magellan other than Green Spring at any time or from time to time from and after Closing desires to acquire any New Facilities, which Magellan or such subsidiary intends to own and/or operate in a manner substantially similar to the Facilities, the Purchaser shall have a right of first refusal to acquire such New Facility upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. The Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days after receipt from Magellan of a copy of an executed letter of intent with a seller of any such New Facility to notify Magellan of its election to exercise such right of first refusal. The Purchaser's failure so to notify Magellan shall be deemed to be a waiver of the Purchaser's right to exercise its right of first refusal with respect to the New Facility that was the subject of Magellan's notice; however, the Purchaser's failure so to notify Magellan shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the Purchaser's rights or remedies under the noncompetition or other provisions of the Transaction Documents or a waiver of its rights with respect to any future New Facility. If the Purchaser elects not to exercise such right of first refusal, Magellan may close and consummate such transaction on substantially the terms as set forth in the letter of intent, subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of the other Transaction Documents. If Magellan acquires any such New Facility, then simultaneously with - xxxi - closing of such acquisition Magellan shall enter into a management agreement with OpCo covering such New Facility, pursuant to which OpCo shall manage and operate such New Facility in exchange for payment by Magellan to OpCo of OpCo's costs plus a fair market value management fee. Magellan shall negotiate such management fee with OpCo in good faith. If Magellan and OpCo are unable to agree upon a fair market value management fee, then such dispute shall be resolved by appraisal in the manner provided for determining the Fair Market Value of the Franchise (as such terms are defined in the Franchise Agreement), as set forth in Section 4.4 of the Franchise Agreement, except that the term "Qualified Appraiser" used therein, for purposes of determining a fair market value management fee pursuant to this Section 14.2, shall have the meaning given such term in Section 14.1(a) hereof. If the Purchaser exercises its right of first refusal, the Purchaser shall be obligated to acquire the New Facility on the terms set forth in the letter of intent; provided, however, that the Purchaser's exercise of such right shall be conditioned upon (1) the Purchaser's and OpCo's execution at or as of the closing of the acquisition of such New Facility of an amendment to the Master Facilities Lease adding such New Facility to the leased premises thereunder and adjusting the rent payable thereunder appropriately (with the rent payable for such New Facility to be determined on the same basis as the rent payable for the Facilities during the initial Lease Year, as defined in the Facilities Lease, escalating on the same basis as the rent payable for the Facilities), and (2) Magellan's and OpCo's execution at or as of the closing of the acquisition of such New Facility of (A) an amendment to the Master Franchise Agreement adding such New Facility to the facilities covered thereby and adjusting the franchise fee payable thereunder appropriately (with the franchise fee payable for such New Facility to be determined on the same basis as the franchise fee payable for the Facilities during the first and second Contract Years (as defined in the Franchise Agreement), escalating on the same basis as the franchise fee payable for the Facilities), and (B) a Subsidiary Franchise Agreement covering such New Facility, upon substantially the same terms and conditions as the Subsidiary Franchise Agreement covering each of the other Facilities. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 14.2 shall survive Closing for a period equal to the term of the Facilities Lease, including all extensions and renewals thereof. 15.

The following new Section is added to Article 8 of the Agreement: 8.4 Ownership Limitation on Purchaser. Both parties recognize that if the principal partner of the Purchaser, CEI, which is a real estate investment trust under sections 856 to 859 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") (a "REIT"), were considered to own, directly or by operation of certain attribution rules, a specified interest in OpCo and/or entities owned by OpCo which are the Tenant under the Facilities Lease, the rents to be re ceived by the Purchaser would not constitute "rents from real property" under section 856(d) of the Code for purposes of determining CEI's compliance - 11 - with certain requirements of being a REIT. Both parties agree that, notwith standing anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the other Trans action Documents, neither the Purchaser, nor any other entity the assets of which would be attributed to CEI for federal income tax purposes in any period during which such entity owned such assets, has the right, option, or obligation, directly or indirectly, (i) to enter into the OpCo Contribution Agreement or (ii) otherwise to own any entities constituting such Tenant, and any attempt to do so will be null and void ab initio. Both parties agree that the failure of the Purchaser to cause the formation and distribution of an entity substantially conforming to the description in Schedule 8.1(p) of the Agreement shall not be considered (i) a breach entitling Seller to enforce specific performance under Section 12.2(i) of the Agreement or (ii) a breach or a failure to use commercially reasonable best efforts entitling Seller to recover damages under the last sentence of Section 8.3 or under Section 12.2(ii) of the Agreement, but only if such failure by the Purchaser occurs in reliance upon an opinion of Shaw, Pittman, Potts & Trowbridge to the Pur chaser that, if the Purchaser were to form and distribute an entity substantially conforming to the description in Schedule 8.1(p) of the Agreement, the rents to be received by the Purchaser would likely not constitute "rents from real property" or if such formation and distribution would likely expose the Pur chaser to a tax exceeding $10 million under section 857(b)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 11. Continuation of Agreement. The Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as modified hereby. In the event of any conflicts or inconsistencies between this Amendment (including all exhibits and Schedules attached hereto) and the Agreement, the provisions of this Amendment shall control. 12. Counterparts. This Amendment may be signed in any number of counter parts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signa tories thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Signatures may be transmitted by facsimile and will be accepted and considered effective as long as such signatures are followed up with signature pages with original signa tures within two (2) business days thereafter. - 12 - IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the parties hereto effective as of the date first above written.

COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS Magellan covenants and agrees, and will cause each Magellan Subsidiary to covenant and agree, and, as applicable, Crescent and OpCo covenant and agree as follows: 7.1 Unlisted Assets. To the extent that, subsequent to Closing, an asset or right that is used in the conduct of the business of the Hospitals prior to Closing and that was not listed as a Contributed Asset, Purchased Asset, Working Capital Asset or an Excluded Asset is discovered to exist, either such asset or right shall be conveyed to OpCo without charge or OpCo shall receive the benefits of ownership of such asset through the Franchise Agreement at no additional charge (except to the extent that the asset results in an increase in franchise fees due to the gross revenue component of the franchise fees); 7.2 Assignment or Transfer of Contributed Assets. To the extent that any of the Contributed Assets cannot be assigned or otherwise transferred to OpCo, Magellan will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to create an alternative structure that will provide OpCo with substantially the same rights, and produce substantially the same economic effect, as that which would have been provided or produced if the Contributed Assets had been transferred or assigned. - 15 - 7.3 Parties' Commercially Reasonable Best Efforts. Magellan and Crescent agree to use their commercially reasonable best efforts to cause all their covenants and agreements and all conditions precedent to the consummation of the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be performed, satisfied and fulfilled. 7.4 Insurance Reserves. Magellan will cause Plymouth Insurance Company Ltd. ("Plymouth") to maintain reserves in amounts that are reasonably actuarially adequate to cover risks insured by Plymouth associated with the operation of the business of the Hospitals. 7.5 Accounts Receivable. OpCo shall pay to Magellan all amounts actually received by OpCo in payment of receivables relating to the business of the Hospitals, which receivables were existing as of (or accrued prior to) the Closing Date, in exchange for a fee payable to OpCo by Magellan equal to 5% of receivables collected by OpCo and received by OpCo or Magellan. The receivables will be collected in accordance with the procedures (including the level of effort to be expended) established by Charter Behavioral Health Systems, Inc. prior to the Closing Date and disclosed to OpCo in writing on or before the Closing Date. Any receivables remaining uncollected 120 days or more after the Closing Date will be turned over to Magellan at its request and OpCo shall have no further obligations as to such receivables but will continue collection efforts for all receivables not so delivered to Magellan. 7.6 Brokers. Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has not engaged, dealt with or otherwise discussed this Agreement or the Transactions with any broker, agent or finder. 7.7 Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge and agree that their respective rights and obligations that will arise out of this Agreement are unique and irreplaceable, and that the failure of either party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents would result in damage to the other party that could not be adequately compensated by a monetary award. Subject to Section 8.4 of the Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement but notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, the parties therefore agree that if either party fails to perform its obligations hereunder or with respect to any of the Transaction Documents, the other party may, in addition to all other remedies, seek an order of specific performance from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. 7.8 Third Party Consents; Further Assurances. (a) If any party shall fail to obtain any third party consent necessary, proper or advisable to effect the consummation of the Contribution, the purchase of the Purchased Assets or the purchase of the Working Capital Assets, such party shall use all commercially reasonable best efforts, and shall take any such actions reasonably requested by the other parties hereto, to minimize any adverse effect upon OpCo's business resulting, or that could reasonably be expected to result after the date hereof, from the failure to obtain such consent. - 16 - (b) In addition to the actions, contracts and other agreements and documents and other papers specifically required to be taken or delivered pursuant to this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall execute such contracts and other agreements and documents and take such further actions as may be reasonably required or desirable to carry out the provisions of this Agreement. 7.9 Services Agreements. Prior to closing, Magellan, in its capacity as a joint venturer, will or will cause any Magellan Subsidiary which is a joint venturer in any Joint Venture that owns or operates a domestic Hospital, which Joint Ventures are set forth on Schedule 7.9 and defined in the Franchise Agreement as "Existing Joint Ventures" (a "Joint Venture"), to enter into a services agreement with OpCo for each such Hospital owned or operated by a Joint Venture, pursuant to which OpCo will perform, to the extent agreed by joint venture partners, all of Magellan's obligations under the Joint Venture agreement in exchange for the payment to OpCo by Magellan of all distributions and fees paid to Magellan by or on behalf of the Joint Venture. Magellan will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent of Magellan's joint venture partners to the performance, by OpCo, of Magellan's obligations under the Joint Venture Agreements. Each service agreement, as referred to in this Section 7.9, shall be approved by Crescent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The services agreement(s) shall continue in effect until termination of the Facilities Lease. 7.10 Employee Benefits. The parties agree to establish employee benefit plans for the employees of OpCo providing for overall benefits in an amount similar to the benefits provided by the employee benefit plans in effect on the date hereof at Magellan and the Magellan Subsidiaries. 7.11 Title to Property. Magellan and the Magellan Subsidiaries shall convey at the Closing pursuant to the form of bill of sale attached as Exhibit I to the Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement, (i) good and marketable title to the Contributed Assets, the Purchased Assets and the Working Capital Assets (to OpCo or such OpCo Subsidiary as OpCo directs) owned by Magellan or a Magellan Subsidiary, subject to no liens, encumbrances or material claims whatsoever, except for the Assumed Obligations and except for any liens, encumbrances and claims related to the purchase of property on an installment basis in the ordinary course of business, and (ii) all of their rights and interest in the Contributed Assets, the Purchased Assets, and the Working Capital Assets leased by Magellan or a Magellan Subsidiary. 7.12 Right to Inspect. Magellan shall grant OpCo the right to inspect any and all business records retained by Magellan pursuant to Section 2.2(z) during reasonable business hours and upon reasonable prior notice. OpCo shall grant Magellan access to any business records transferred to OpCo during reasonable business hours and upon reasonable prior notice. - 17 - SECTION 8.

Magellan shall indemnify and hold harmless OpCo and its subsidiaries and affiliates, each of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, agents and representatives and each of the permitted successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the "OpCo Indemnified Parties") from, against and in respect of any and all claims, liabilities, obligations, losses, costs, expenses, penalties, fines and other judgments (at equity or at law) and damages (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, costs of investigation and reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) (collectively, "Claims and Damages") arising out of or relating to (i) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or undertaking made by Magellan in this Agreement or in any certificate, agreement, exhibit or schedule delivered pursuant to this Agreement, or (ii) the ownership, lease or operation of the Hospitals and attributable to events arising prior to the Closing (including claims made after Closing related to events occurring prior to Closing) other than Assumed Liabilities or liabilities to the extent they are covered by existing insurance, provided, however, that if the insurer does not pay insured amounts under the terms of the policies, Magellan shall indemnify the OpCo Indemnified Parties for such debts, liabilities and obligations. The Claims and Damages of the OpCo Indemnified Parties described in this Section 8.1 as to which the OpCo Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification are hereinafter collectively referred to as "OpCo Losses." Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Magellan's indemnity obligations hereunder will not extend to claims arising out of willful misconduct or fraud of OpCo. 8.2 Indemnification Obligations of OpCo. OpCo shall indemnify and hold harmless Magellan and its subsidiaries and affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, agents and representatives and each of the permitted successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the "Magellan Indemnified Parties") from, against and in respect of any and all Claims and Damages arising out of or relating to any debts, liabilities and obligations relating to (i) the ownership, lease or operation of the Hospitals and attributable to events which arise after the Closing or (ii) the Assumed Obligations. The Claims and Damages of the Magellan Indemnified Parties described in this Section 8.2 as to which the Magellan Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification are hereinafter collectively referred to as "Magellan Losses." Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, OpCo's indemnity obligations hereunder will not extend to claims arising out of willful misconduct or fraud of Magellan. 8.3 Indemnification Procedure. (a) Promptly after receipt by an OpCo Indemnified Party or a Magellan Indemnified Party (each an "Indemnified Party") of notice by a third party of any complaint or the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder, such Indemnified Party shall notify OpCo, if the Indemnified Party is a - 18 - Magellan Indemnified Party, or Magellan, if the Indemnified Party is a OpCo Indemnified Party (the "Indemnifying Party"), of such complaint or of the commencement of such action or proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability for such claim arising otherwise than under this Agreement and such failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability which the Indemnifying Party may have under this Agreement with respect to such claim if, but only if, and only to the extent that, such failure to notify the Indemnifying Party results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of rights and defenses otherwise available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of such action or proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel. In the event, however, that the Indemnifying Party declines or fails to assume the defense of the action or proceeding or to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, in either case in a timely manner, then such Indemnified Party may employ counsel to represent or defend it in any such action or proceeding and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel as incurred; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay the fees and disbursements of more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties in any jurisdiction in any single action or proceeding. In any action or proceeding with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder, the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, whichever is not assuming the defense of such action, shall have the right to participate in such litigation and to retain its own counsel at such party's own expense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall at all times use reasonable efforts to keep the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, reasonably apprised of the status of the defense of any action, the defense of which it is maintaining and to cooperate in good faith with the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, with respect to the defense of any such action. (b) No Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Indemnifying Party from all liability arising out of such claim. An Indemnifying Party may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim and does not contain any equitable order, judgment or term which in any manner affects, restrains or interferes with the business of the Indemnified Party or any of the Indemnified Party's respective affiliates. (c) In the event an Indemnified Party shall claim a right to payment pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall send written notice of such claim to the appropriate Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall specify the basis for such claim. As promptly as possible after the Indemnified Party has given such notice, such Indemnified Party and the appropriate - 19 - Indemnifying Party shall establish the merits and amount of such claim (by mutual agreement, litigation, arbitration or otherwise) and, within five business days of the final determination of the merits and amount of such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party immediately available funds in an amount equal to such claim as determined hereunder. (d) Liability Limits. To the extent any claim for OpCo Losses against Magellan is based upon the alleged inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Article 5 of this Agreement, then, for a period beginning on the Closing Date and ending two years later, Magellan shall only be liable for such OpCo Losses solely to the extent that any such OpCo Losses exceed in the aggregate in any one year, one million dollars ($1,000,000.00). Beginning two years after the Closing Date, Magellan shall be liable for such OpCo Losses solely to the extent that any such OpCo Losses exceed in the aggregate during such period, ten million dollars ($10,000,000.00); provided, however, that to the extent a claim for OpCo Losses is not based on the inaccuracy of a representation or warranty contained in Article 4 of this Agreement, then such claim shall not be subject to the limitations above, nor shall the amount of any such OpCo Losses be included with other OpCo Losses in determining whether such basket amounts have been reached. (e) Claim Periods. Indemnification obligations under this Article 7 for pre-closing and post-closing debts, liabilities or obligations and for a breach of representations, warranties or covenants shall survive until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS 9.1 Fees and Expenses; Transfer Costs.

(a) Following Closing, any controversy, claim or question of interpretation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof shall be finally settled by arbitration in Delaware, under the then-effective Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association as modified by this Agreement, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final and binding on the parties and not subject to further appeal. Such arbitration can be initiated by written notice by either party (the "Claimant") to the other party, which notice shall identify the Claimant's selected arbitrator. The party receiving such notice (the "Respondent") shall identify its arbitrator within ten (10) business days following its receipt of such notice. The arbitrator selected by the Claimant and the arbitrator selected by the Respondent shall, within ten (10) business days of their appointment, select a third neutral arbitrator. In the event that they are unable to do so, either party may request the American Arbitration Association to appoint the third neutral arbitrator. The arbitrators shall have the authority to award any remedy or relief that a court in Delaware could order or grant, including, without limitation, specific performance of any obligation created under this Agreement, the issuance of injunctive or other provisional relief, or the imposition of sanctions for abuse or frustration of the arbitration process. The arbitration award will be in writing and specify the factual and legal basis for the award. (b) The arbitrators shall instruct the non-prevailing party to pay all costs of the proceedings, including the fees and expenses of the arbitrators and the reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses of the prevailing party.

The execution, delivery, and performance by Buyer of this Agreement and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or result in a violation of any provision of the charter, bylaws, or similar organizational documents of Buyer, (ii) conflict with or result in a violation of any provision of, or constitute (with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time or both) a default under, or give rise (with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time or both) to any right of termination, cancellation, or acceleration under, any bond, debenture, note, mortgage, indenture, lease, agreement, or other instrument or obligation to which Buyer is a party or by which Buyer or any of its properties may be bound, (iii) result in the creation or imposition of any Encumbrance upon the properties of Buyer, or (iv) violate any Applicable Law binding upon Buyer, except, in the case of clauses (ii), (iii), and (iv) above, for any such conflicts, violations, defaults, terminations, cancellations, accelerations, or Encumbrances which would not, individually or in the aggregate, -5- have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, results of operations, or financial condition of Buyer or on the ability of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. 4.4 Governmental Approvals. Other than any HSR Act filing, no consent, approval, order, or authorization of, or declaration, filing, or registration with, any Governmental Entity is required to be obtained or made by Buyer in connection with the execution, delivery, or performance by Buyer of this Agreement or the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby. 4.5 Purchase for Investment. Buyer has been furnished with all information that it has requested for the purpose of evaluating the proposed acquisition of the Warrants pursuant hereto, and Buyer has had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company regarding the Company and its business, assets, results of operations, and financial condition and the terms and conditions of the issuance of the Warrants. Buyer is acquiring the Warrants to be purchased by it for its own account for investment and not for distribution in any manner that would violate applicable securities laws. Buyer can bear the risk of an investment in the Warrants, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of a prospective investment in the Warrants. The acquisition of such Warrants by Buyer at Closing shall constitute Buyer's confirmation of the foregoing representations. Buyer understands that such Warrants are being sold to it in a transaction which is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and that, in making the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.5 pertaining to compliance by the Company with the requirements of the Securities Act and applicable securities laws, the Company is relying, to the extent applicable, upon Buyer's representations set forth herein. 4.6 No Other Shares. Except for such rights as may be conferred on Buyer by this Agreement, as of the date hereof, Buyer does not beneficially own, directly or indirectly through any subsidiary, or any affiliate of the Buyer in which the Buyer directly or indirectly owns stock or equity interests, and Crescent Real Estate Equities Company does not own, any shares of capital stock of the Company.

(xii) enter into such customary agreements (including, without limitation, underwriting agreements in customary form, substance, and scope) and take all such other actions as the holders of a majority of the Registrable Warrant Shares being sold or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Warrant Shares; (xiii) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the disqualification of any Common Stock included in the Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction, the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order;

During any period in which the Company is maintaining the effectiveness of a Registration Statement for the Registrable Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 5.3, the Company shall have the right, upon giving notice to the Buyer holding Registrable Warrant Shares of the exercise of such right, to require the Buyer not to sell any Registrable Warrant Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement for a period of time the Company deems reasonably necessary, which time shall be specified in such notice but in no event longer than a period of 90 days, if (i) the Company is engaged in an offering of shares by the Company for its own account or is engaged in or proposes to engage in discussions or negotiations with respect to, or has proposed or taken a substantial step to commence, or there otherwise is pending, any merger, acquisition, other form of business combination, divestiture, tender offer, financing or other transaction, or there is an event or state of facts relating to the Company, in each case which is material to the Company (any such negotiation, step, event or state of facts being herein called a "Material Activity"), (ii) such Material Activity would, in the opinion of counsel for the Company reasonably acceptable to Buyer, -9- require disclosure so as to permit the Registrable Warrant Shares to be sold in compliance with applicable law, and (iii) such disclosure would, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, be adverse to its interests in any material respect. The Company shall have no obligation to include in any notice contemplated by this subparagraph (f) any reference to or description of the facts based upon which the Company is delivering such notice. (e) Indemnification. (i) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer holding Registrable Warrant Shares and its directors, Affiliates and officers, and each other person, if any, who controls the Buyer within the meaning of the Securities Act against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel), joint or several, to which the Buyer or any such director, Affiliate or officer or participating or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise in connection with or as a result of a sale by the Buyer of the Registrable Warrant Shares, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or related actions or proceedings) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or any document incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, or (ii) any omission to state in any such document a material fact required to be stated in any such document or necessary to make the statements in any such document not misleading, and the Company will reimburse the Buyer and each such director, Affiliate, officer, participating person and controlling person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or action or proceeding in respect of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense) which arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission made in the Registration Statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement except for any untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Buyer or any such director, Affiliate, officer, participating person or controlling person for use in the preparation of the Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Buyer or any such director, Affiliate, officer, participating person or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Warrant Shares by the Buyer. (ii) The Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in clause (i) of this subparagraph (f)) the Company, each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who shall sign the Registration Statement and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any untrue statement in or omission from the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus included in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, but only to the -10- extent that such statement or omission was made in direct reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Buyer for use in the preparation of the Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any such director, officer or controlling person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Warrant Shares by the Buyer.

The underwriting discounts or commissions and any selling commissions together with any stock transfer or similar taxes attributable to sales of the Registrable Warrant Shares will be paid by the Buyer. 5.4 Fees and Expenses. The parties shall each pay their own fees and expenses and those of their agents, advisors, attorneys and accountants with respect to the negotiation and execution of this Agreement. 5.5 Restrictions on Transfers: Restrictions on Exercise of Warrants.

Subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and (c), without having obtained the prior written consent of the Company, the Buyer shall not: (i) sell or transfer any of the Warrants held by it to any other person, except for Excluded Transfers (as defined below) or to a wholly owned Subsidiary; and (ii) prior to the twelfth anniversary of the Closing Date, except for an Excluded Transfer, sell or transfer in a privately negotiated transaction to a single purchaser and its Affiliates, or any "Group" (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) any combination of Warrants and/or Warrant Shares, if the aggregate number of Warrant Shares and Underlying Warrant Shares to be so transferred equals 5% or more of -11- the Common Stock then outstanding on a fully-diluted basis (i.e. including all shares of Common Stock issuable under the terms of any options, warrants and similar rights). (b) Exceptions to Transfer Restrictions. Notwithstanding subsection (a), the Buyer may sell or transfer any of the Warrants and/or Warrant Shares to any person pursuant to, as a result of, or in connection with (i) a tender offer or an exchange offer approved by the Board of Directors of the Company; (ii) the consummation of a merger (provided the Company is not the surviving corporation in such merger), consolidation, or a sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company; or (iii) any other "Fundamental Change Transaction" (as such term is defined in the Warrant). The Buyer may also transfer all or any portion of any one or more of the Warrants to Crescent Opportunity Corporation ("COC") if the transfer of such Warrants is necessary to avoid jeopardizing, by reason of the ownership or exchange of such Warrants, the qualification of Crescent Real Estate Equities Company ("CEI") as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes ("REIT"); provided, however, that in the event of any transfer for such purpose, the Buyer provides the Company with a written opinion of counsel that the transfer of such Warrants is necessary to avoid jeopardizing the qualification of CEI as a REIT (any transfer pursuant to this Section 5.5(b), an "Excluded Transfer"). (c) Transferees. During the period in which the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.5 remain applicable, neither Buyer nor any transferee shall be entitled to, directly or indirectly, sell or transfer any of the Warrants and/or Warrant Shares in an Excluded Transfer to any person who is not a party to this Agreement, unless the purported transferee executes an instrument acknowledging that it is bound by the terms of this Section 5.5 and such instrument is delivered to the Company. 5.6 Indemnification of Brokerage. Each of the parties hereto agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each other party from and against any claim or demand for a commission or other compensation by any financial advisor, broker, agent, finder, or similar intermediary claiming to have been employed by or on behalf of such indemnifying party and to bear the cost of legal fees and expenses incurred in defending against any such claim or demand. 5.7 Delivery of Information. The Company will deliver to the Buyer promptly upon the filing thereof, copies of all registration statements (other than the exhibits thereto and any registration statements on Form S-8 or its equivalent) and reports on Forms 10-K (or their equivalents) which the Company shall have filed with the Commission or any similar reports filed with any state securities commission or office. 5.8 Rule 144 and Rule 144A Information. With a view to making available to the Buyer the benefits of Rule 144 and Rule 144A promulgated under the 1933 Act and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the Buyer to sell Common Stock of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; -12- (ii) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to Buyer forthwith upon request (A) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested by each Buyer in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission which permits the selling of any such securities without registration; and (iv) comply with all rules and regulations of the Commission applicable to the Company in connection with use of Rule 144A (or any successor thereto); and (v) within five business days of the Company's receipt of a request made by, or on behalf of, any prospective transferee of who is a Qualified Institutional Buyer (as defined in Rule 144A) and would be purchasing Common Stock of the Company in reliance upon Rule 144A), provide to such prospective transferee copies of annual audited and quarterly unaudited financial statements of the Company for it to comply with Rule 144A. 5.9 Standstill. (a) General. Buyer agrees that during the four year period ending on the anniversary of the Closing Date, it will not, and it will cause its Affiliates and employees (other than Richard E. Rainwater, John C. Goff and Gerald W. Haddock) not to, purchase additional shares (excluding any acquisition of shares of Common Stock or Equity Securities pursuant to warrants outstanding pursuant to that certain Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated December 22, 1995 between the Company and Richard E. Rainwater and certain other buyers) of the Company's Common Stock (or other Equity Securities) so that Buyer and its Affiliates and employees collectively own 20% or more of the Company's Common Stock then outstanding; provided, however, that Buyer and its Affiliates and employees shall not be deemed to own 20% or more of the Common Stock then outstanding solely by reason of the Company's purchase of any Common Stock unless thereafter Buyer and its Affiliates and employees purchase any additional shares of Common Stock (excluding any acquisition of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants, which shall not be restricted hereunder). (b) Additional Standstill Obligations. Buyer further agrees that during the twelve year period ending on the anniversary of the Closing Date, it will not, and it will cause its Affiliates and employees not to, without prior Company consent, (i) effect or cause to be effected any (A) "solicitation" of "proxies" (as such terms are used in the proxy rules of the Commission) with respect to the Company or any action resulting in such person becoming a "participant" in any "election contest" (as such terms are used in the proxy rules of the Commission) with respect to the Company, -13- or (B) any tender or exchange offer or offer for a merger, consolidation, share exchange or business combination involving the Company or substantially all of its assets, (ii) propose any matter for submission to a vote of the stockholders of the Company, or (iii) sell any shares of the Company's Common Stock (or other Equity Securities) short. (c) Amendments to Rights Agreement. If the Company undertakes the purchase of any Common Stock under circumstances in which any exercise of Warrants would be considered to cause Buyer and its Affiliates to become an "Acquiring Person" under the Rights Agreement, the Company agrees to amend the Rights Agreement to either (i) include the Buyer and its Affiliates in the definition of an "Initial Shareholder", or (ii) change the definition of "Exempt Person" so as to exclude any exercise of the Warrants from being considered as an additional purchase of shares of Common Stock for purposes of the Rights Agreement. The Company agrees to amend the Rights Agreement prior to Closing to the extent, if any, necessary to prevent any of the transactions contemplated hereby, including any issuance of Warrant Shares, to cause an issuance of certificates under Section 3 of the Rights Agreement or a Triggering Event under the Rights Agreement. 5.10 Notices. The Company agrees to give the Buyer notice of any of the events referred to in Section 4(g) of the Warrants at least five (5) Business Days prior to any record date established or related to any such event which the Buyer agrees to keep strictly confidential unless and until any such event has been publicly announced. 5.11 Survival of Covenants.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company's indemnity obligations hereunder (i) will not extend to Damages arising out of negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of the Buyer and (ii) with respect to indemnification Damages under this Section 9.2 (other than, for each of (i) and (ii), Damages related to the ability of the Buyer to exercise the Warrants, receive the Warrant Shares, or sell the Warrant Shares related to the failure of Magellan to effect the registration of the Warrant Shares), the Company's indemnification obligations (x) for a period of two (2) years following the Closing, shall not arise until the aggregate Damages resulting from the breach exceed $1,000,000, at which time such indemnity obligations shall cover all Damages, and (y) after two (2) years following the Closing, shall not arise until the aggregate Damages during such period resulting from the breach exceed $10,000,000, at which time such indemnity obligations shall cover all Damages. 9.3 Indemnification by Buyer.

Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 9.2 or 9.3 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under such Section, give written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced thereby. In case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified party and it shall give written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of such action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at its own expense and to participate in the defense thereof. If the indemnifying party elects not to assume (or fails to assume) the defense of such action, the indemnified party shall be entitled to assume the defense of such action with counsel of its own choice, at the expense of the indemnifying party. If the action is asserted against both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and there is a conflict of interests which renders it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be responsible for paying for separate counsel for the indemnified party; provided, however, that if there is more than one indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for paying for more than one separate firm of attorneys to represent the indemnified parties, regardless of the number of indemnified parties. The indemnifying party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of any action effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares upon any exercise of the Warrant, but instead shall pay to the holder of this Warrant the cash value of any such fractional Warrant Shares. The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the holder hereof or its designee as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered, the completed Exercise Agreement delivered, and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased, representing the aggregate number of shares specified in said Exercise Agreement, shall be delivered to the holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding ten business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be reasonably requested by the holder hereof, shall, unless the Warrant Shares evidenced by such certificate have previously been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), be imprinted with a restrictive legend substantially similar to the legend appearing on the face of this Warrant, and shall be registered in the name of said holder or such other name as shall be designated by said holder. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of said certificates, deliver to said holder a new Warrant representing the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised, which Warrant shall be imprinted on its face with the same legend appearing on the face of this Warrant. The Company shall pay all taxes and other expenses and charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution, and delivery of stock certificates (and any new Warrants) pursuant to this Paragraph 1 except that, in case such stock certificates shall be registered in a name or names other than the holder of this Warrant, funds sufficient to pay all stock transfer taxes which shall be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of such stock certificates shall be paid by the holder hereof to the Company at the time of the delivery of such stock certificates by the Company as mentioned above. 13. Period of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of the Purchase Agreement which restrict the exercise of the Warrants, this Warrant is exercisable at any time or from time to time - 25 - during the period commencing at 9:00 a.m. Atlanta, Georgia, local time, on [ ] and ending at 5:00 p.m. Atlanta, Georgia, local time, on [ ] (the "Exercise Period"). 14. Certain Actions Prohibited. The Company will not, by amendment of certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Company will not increase the par value of the shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Exercise Price below the then par value of the shares of Common Stock so receivable, the Company will take all such corporate action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at such adjusted Exercise Price upon the exercise of this Warrant, or (iii) the Company will not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Exercise Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable after the action upon the exercise of this Warrant would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by the Company's charter and available for other than the purpose of issue upon such exercise. 15. Anti-dilution Provisions. The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Paragraph 4. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price, the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the largest number of Warrant Shares obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment. For purposes of this Paragraph 4, the term "Capital Stock," as used herein, includes the Common Stock and any additional class of stock of the Company having no preference as to dividends or distributions on liquidation which may be authorized in the future by an amendment to the Company's charter, provided that the shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall include only shares of Common Stock, or shares resulting from any subdivision or combination of the Common Stock, or in the case of any reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale of the character referred to in this Paragraph 4, the stock or other securities or property provided for in this Paragraph 4. - 26 - (a) Subdivisions and Combinations. In case at any time the Company shall (i) subdivide the outstanding shares of Capital Stock into a greater number of shares, or (ii) combine the outstanding shares of Capital Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted proportionately so that the adjusted Exercise Price shall bear the same relation to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such event as the total number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event shall bear to the total number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the effective date of a subdivision or combination. (b) Stock Dividends. In case the Company at any time after the date hereof shall declare, order, pay or make any dividend or other distribution to all holders of the Capital Stock payable in Capital Stock, then in each such case, subject to Paragraph 4(d) hereof, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such dividend or distribution shall be reduced to a price (calculated to the nearest .001 of a cent) determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution. Such adjustment shall be made on the date such dividend is paid or such distribution is made and shall become effective retroactive to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution. (c) Dividends other than Stock Dividends. In case the Company at any time after the date hereof shall declare, order, pay or make any dividend or other distribution to all holders of the Capital Stock, other than a dividend payable in shares of Capital Stock (including, without limitation, dividends or distributions payable in cash, evidences of indebtedness, rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any Capital Stock or other securities, or any other securities or other property), then, and in each such case, subject to Paragraph 4(d) hereof, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such dividend or distribution shall be reduced to a price (calculated to the nearest .001 of a cent) determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the "Market Price" (as defined below) in effect on such record date or, if any class of Capital Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, the trading date immediately prior to the date of commencement of ex-dividend trading, less the value of such dividend or distribution (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) applicable to one share of Capital Stock, and - 27 - (ii) the denominator of which shall be such Market Price on such record date of, if any class of Capital Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, the trading date immediately prior to the date of commencement of ex-dividend trading. Such adjustment shall be made on the date such dividend is paid or such distribution is made and shall become effective retroactive to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution. For the purpose hereof, "Market Price" shall mean, on any date specified herein, (A) if any class of Capital Stock is listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the highest price obtained by taking the arithmetic mean over a period of 20 consecutive days on which such national securities exchange (or if such stock is traded on more than one national securities exchange, the exchange the Company has designated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to receive copies of reports filed by the Company under such act) is open for trading on a regular basis (any such day is a "Trading Day") ending the Trading Day immediately prior to such date of the average, on each such Trading Day, of the high and low sale prices of shares of each such class of Capital Stock or if no such sale takes place on such date, the average of the highest closing bid and lowest closing asked prices thereof on such date, in each case as officially reported on all national securities exchanges on which each such class of Capital Stock is then listed or admitted to trading, or (B) if no shares of any class of Capital Stock are then listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the highest closing price of any class of Capital Stock on such date in the over-the-counter market as shown by the NASDAQ National Market System or, if no such shares of any class of Capital Stock are then quoted in such system, as published by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. or any similar successor organization, and in either case as reported by any member firm of the New York Stock Exchange selected by the Company. If no shares of any class of Capital Stock are then listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange and if no closing bid and asked prices thereof are then so quoted or published in the over-the-counter market, "Market Price" shall mean the higher of (x) the book value per share of Capital Stock (assuming for the purposes of this calculation the economic equivalence of all shares of all class of Capital Stock) as determined on a fully diluted basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by the Board of Directors of the Company as of the last day of any month ending within 60 days preceding the date as of which the determination is to be made or (y) the fair value per share of classes of Capital Stock (assuming for the purposes of this calculation the economic equivalence of all shares of all classes of Capital Stock), as determined on a fully diluted basis in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, as of a date which is 15 days preceding the date as of which the determination is to be made. (d) Minimum Adjustment of Exercise Price. If the amount of any adjustment of the Exercise Price required pursuant to this Paragraph 4 would be less than one percent (1%) of the Exercise Price in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise so required to be made, such amount shall be carried forward and adjustment with respect thereto made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate at least one percent (1%) of such Exercise Price; provided that, upon - 28 - the exercise of this Warrant, all adjustments carried forward and not theretofore made up to and including the date of such exercise shall, with respect to the portion of this Warrant then exercised, be made to the nearest .001 of a cent. (e) Fundamental Change Transaction. In case at any time after the date hereof a purchase, tender, or exchange offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Capital Stock, or the Company is otherwise a party to any transaction (including, without limitation, a merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the Company's assets, liquidation, or recapitalization of the Capital Stock) which is to be effected in such a way that as a result of such transaction or offer (x) the holders of Common Stock (or any other securities of the Company then issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to receive stock or other securities or property (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock (or such other securities), or (y) the Capital Stock ceases to be a publicly traded security either listed on the American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ National Market System or any successor thereto or comparable system (each such transaction being herein called a "Fundamental Change Transaction"), then, as a condition of such Fundamental Change Transaction, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) purchasable immediately before such transaction upon the exercise hereof, such stock or other securities or property (including cash) as may be issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) equal to the number of shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) purchasable immediately before such transaction upon the exercise hereof, had such Fundamental Change Transaction not taken place. In any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, the provisions for adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise hereof) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to the stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof (including an immediate adjustment of the Exercise Price if by reason of or in connection with such Fundamental Change Transaction any securities are issued or event occurs which would, under the terms hereof, require an adjustment of the Exercise Price). In the event of a consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation or entity as a result of which a greater or lesser number of shares of common stock of the surviving corporation or entity are issuable to holders of Capital Stock in respect of the number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to such consolidation or merger, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation or merger shall be adjusted in the same manner as though there were a subdivision or combination of the outstanding shares of Capital Stock. The Company shall not effect any such Fundamental Change Transaction unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation or entity (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation or entity purchasing such assets and any other corporation or entity the shares of stock or other securities or property of which are receivable thereupon by the holder of this Warrant shall expressly assume, by written instrument executed and delivered (and satisfactory in - 29 - form) to the holder of this Warrant, (i) the obligation to deliver to such holder such stock or other securities or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to purchase and (ii) all other obligations of the Company hereunder. (f) Notice of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of any event requiring an adjustment of the Exercise Price, then and in each such case the Company shall promptly deliver to the holder of this Warrant a notice stating the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Within 90 days after each fiscal year in which any such adjustment shall have occurred, or within 30 days after any request therefor by the holder of this Warrant stating that such holder contemplates exercise of this Warrant, the Company will deliver to the holder of this Warrant a certificate of the Company's chief financial officer confirming the statements in the most recent notice delivered under this Paragraph 4(f). (g) Other Notices. In case at any time: (i) the Company shall declare or pay to all the holders of Capital Stock any dividend (whether payable in Capital Stock, cash, securities or other property); (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to all the holders of Capital Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (iii) there shall be any capital reorganization, or reclassification of the Capital Stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with, or sale of all or substantially all its assets to, another corporation or other entity; (iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding- up of the Company; or (v) there shall be any other Fundamental Change Transaction; then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to the holder of this Warrant (a) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the record date established or related to any event referred to in clause (i) - (v) above (which, for purposes of events referred to in clauses (i) - (v) above, shall be the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, or Transaction) written notice of such record date and (b) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, or Transaction known to the Company, at least 30 days prior written notice of the date (or, if not then known, a reasonable approximation thereof by the Company) when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (a) shall also specify, in the case of any such dividend, - 30 - distribution, or subscription rights, the date on which such holders of Capital Stock shall be entitled thereto, and such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (b) shall also specify the date on which such holders of Capital Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Capital Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, or Transaction, as the case may be. Such notice shall also state that the action in question or the record date is subject to the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act, or to a favorable vote of security holders, if either is required. (h) Certain Events. If any event occurs as to which, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, the other provisions of this Paragraph 4 are not strictly applicable or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the exercise rights of the holder of this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors of the Company shall make such adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with such essential intent and principles, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the rights of the holder of this Warrant; provided, that no such adjustment shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Paragraph 4. 16. Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder of this Warrant or such shares for any issuance tax in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any warrant or certificate in a name other than the holder of this Warrant. 17. No Rights or Liabilities as a Shareholder. This Warrant shall not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative action by the holder hereof to purchase Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. 18. Transfer, Exchange, and Replacement of Warrant; Registration Rights. (a) Restrictions on Transfer of Warrants. This Warrant shall not be transferable to any person or entity other than a wholly-owned affiliate of the Holder or as permitted under the Purchase Agreement.

(NYSE: MGL) today announced an acceleration of its strategy to grow the provider services, care management and related information services, and public sector segments of the Company through a realignment of its business structure. Following this realignment, Magellan's domestic provider business, Charter Behavioral Health Systems, will be operated as a joint venture, CBHS, equally owned by Magellan and an affiliate of Crescent Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: CEI). As part of this business realignment, Magellan has entered into a definitive agreement under which substantially all of the hospitals, real estate and related personal property used in its Charter subsidiary's domestic provider operations would be acquired by Crescent in a real estate investment trust (REIT) transaction. The joint venture will operate the facilities under a franchise agreement with Magellan and a lease agreement with Crescent. Crescent will lease the real estate and related assets to CBHS for annual rent beginning at $40 million and increasing at 5% per year, compounded. Magellan will issue warrants to both Crescent and its affiliate (the Affiliate) for 1,283,500 shares each of Magellan common stock at $30 per share to become exercisable over 12 years. The Affiliate will issue warrants to Magellan for the purchase of 2 1/2 % of the Affiliate's common stock with terms substantially equivalent to Magellan's warrants issued to Crescent. In exchange for the sale of Charter's real estate assets to Crescent, the Affiliate's 50% ownership interest in CBHS, and the 2,567,000 total Magellan warrants, Magellan will receive $400 million in cash from Crescent and the warrants in the Affiliate. - more - 2 In addition, CBHS will pay Magellan approximately $80 million in annual franchise fees (subject to increase) for the use of assets retained by Magellan and for support in certain areas that Magellan will provide CBHS. The franchise fees paid by CBHS will be subordinated to lease obligations. The assets being retained by Magellan include, but are not limited to, the "CHARTER" name, other intellectual property assets, treatment protocols and procedures, clinical quality management, operating processes and the "1-800-CHARTER" telephone call center. Magellan will provide CBHS ongoing support in areas including managed care contracting services, advertising and marketing assistance, risk management services, outcomes monitoring, and consultation on matters relating to reimbursement, government relations, clinical strategies, regulatory matters, strategic planning and business development. Magellan said that the transactions would monetize a significant portion of the Company's fixed assets and add $400 million cash, before debt repayment, to Magellan's balance sheet; deconsolidate the provider business, yet maintain the ability to contribute to earnings per share through franchise fees; and establish a business platform from which Magellan can offer its management and information services expertise to other healthcare concerns. As a result of this transaction, Magellan will deconsolidate the hospitals and record an equity interest in CBHS. The gain on the sale of the fixed assets will be offset by transaction costs, write-off of goodwill, and collection fees associated with the collection of account receivables. The one-time pre-tax loss to Magellan as a result of this transaction is expected to be $45 to $55 million and is expected to be recognized in the third fiscal quarter of 1997. Going forward, Magellan will receive approximately $80 million per year in franchise fees and a 50% equity interest in CBHS's earnings. Mac Crawford, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Magellan, said, "Our decision to realign our businesses is a significant step in Magellan's continuing development as the preeminent integrated behavioral healthcare company. By separating Charter's domestic provider operations, Magellan will be able to focus on the segments of our business with the greatest near-term growth potential -- care management and related information services and public sector services. At the same time, we will retain the strategic benefits of the integration of the finance and delivery of care through our ownership in CBHS." Magellan said it would remain the nation's largest integrated behavioral healthcare system, and that the separation of CBHS would not affect Magellan's ability to enter into national contracts integrating the delivery and management of behavioral healthcare, nor its ability to offer products such as risk capitation services. The Company said it would use the proceeds of the REIT transaction to pursue acquisitions in the care management and related information services industry, develop new products, increase managed care and public sector marketing efforts, and reduce debt. Magellan believes that under the terms of the Company's 11 1/4% senior - more - 3 subordinated bond indenture, these transactions would allow bondholders the right to put their bonds at 101% of face value. The Company's other primary business units are Green Spring Health Services and Magellan Public Solutions (MPS). Green Spring is one of the nation's largest managed behavioral healthcare companies, with over 15 million lives under management. MPS provides behavioral care, management and support services to public sector agencies through programs such as National Mentor, Inc. (Mentor), a community-based foster care program acquired by the Company in January, 1995. The Company acquired a 61% ownership interest in Green Spring in December 1995. For fiscal year 1996, Green Spring had revenues of $265 million, an increase of 33% over fiscal 1995. Mentor had revenues of $70 million in 1996 vs. revenues of approximately $58 million in 1995, an increase of over 20%. Crawford continued, "The growth of both Green Spring and Mentor has exceeded our expectations. The increased focus on these businesses and the strengthening of our balance sheet will enable us to accelerate Green Spring's growth through acquisition and diversification into other areas of carve-out specialized care management services. We also expect to step up the growth of our public sector business through expansion of such programs as Mentor and AdvoCare, Green Spring's public sector unit." The Company said that for fiscal year 1997, it anticipates revenues of $375 million for Green Spring and nearly $90 million for Mentor before any benefits of these transactions. The Company said the decision to enter into the joint venture is consistent with management=s belief that Magellan=s share price reflects neither the strong growth trends currently seen in the Company=s care management and related information services businesses, nor the long-term potential of the Company=s provider business. The Company added that it believes a secondary benefit of this new structure should be to enhance the value of Magellan's stock as currency for future acquisitions. Crawford said, "With Crescent, Magellan and CBHS gain a strategic partner who recognizes the long term nature of the provider business and has the financing and real estate expertise that CBHS will need to capitalize on opportunities for growth and consolidation in the provider business. In addition, through Magellan=s continued ownership interest in CBHS and retention of CBHS=s intellectual assets, our stockholders will participate in the continued consolidation of the provider business.@ John DeStefanis will be President and CEO of CBHS, and CBHS's board will include two representatives chosen by Magellan and two chosen by the Affiliate, including John Goff, Crescent's Vice Chairman, who will be Chairman of CBHS. - more - 4 John DeStefanis, President of Charter Behavioral Health Systems, said, "Crescent will be a valuable partner in CBHS's efforts to access financing independent of the stock market, which in our view has undervalued Charter's assets and prospects. We believe that as the clear industry leader, Charter is well positioned to benefit as both public and private payers shift their focus from cost-control to broader measures of value from providers." Mr. DeStefanis continued, "CBHS is the nation's largest and most comprehensive behavioral health system, and we are continuing to leverage that strength by customizing treatment programs to maximize the value of the benefits our customers offer their beneficiaries; driving improvement in clinical quality by focusing on measurable outcomes; and expanding our continuum of care through the addition of specialty care programs and out-patient services." These transactions were unanimously approved by Magellan's and Crescent's respective Boards of Directors, but are still subject to approval by Magellan's stockholders and federal antitrust authorities and subject to customary closing conditions including financing. Closing is expected to take place early in the third quarter of fiscal year 1997. Certain of the statements in this press release including, without limitation, statements regarding acquisition opportunities, revenue growth, new product development, and franchise operations constitute forward-looking statements contemplated under the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995. Risk factors such as the ability to successfully complete and integrate acquisitions, degree of new product success, and profitability of franchised operations could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. For a brief discussion of these factors, please see Exhibit 99 contained in the Company's Form 10K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 28, 1997. Magellan Health Services, Inc., a Fortune 1000 company, is the country's largest integrated behavioral healthcare company. Its three business units include: Charter Behavioral Health Systems, the nation's largest and most comprehensive behavioral healthcare delivery system, with nearly 100 facilities delivering a broad continuum of inpatient and outpatient care; majority-owned Green Spring Health Services, a leader in behavioral managed care services; and Magellan Public Solutions, serving public sector agencies with privatized health services. # # # Investor Contact: Media Contact: Kevin Helmintoller Robert Mead (404) 814-5742 (212) 484-6701 EX-99.B 7 FORM OF MASTER LEASE AGREEMENT MASTER LEASE AGREEMENT THIS MASTER LEASE AGREEMENT is entered into as of the ___ day of ___________, 1997, by and between CRESCENT REAL ESTATE EQUITIES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited partnership, having its principal office at 777 Main Street, Suite 2100, Fort Worth, Texas 76102 ("Landlord"), CHARTER BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SYSTEMS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, having its principal office at Suite 900, 3414 Peachtree Rd., N.E., Atlanta, GA 30326 ("OpCo"), and each of the entities listed on Exhibit B attached hereto.

In connection therewith, Tenant agrees to perform any and all covenants of landlord thereunder, past, present and future. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such leases shall, without the necessity of further documentation, be deemed reassigned to Landlord upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. In connection with any reassignment thereof occurring following an Event of Default hereunder, such reassignment shall not release Tenant from any liability thereunder with respect to the period ending prior to the expiration of the Term. 2.2 Condition of Collective Leased Properties. Tenant acknowledges receipt and delivery of possession of the Collective Leased Properties and Tenant accepts the Collective Leased Properties in their "as is" condition, subject to the rights of all occupants and parties in possession, the existing state of title, including all covenants, conditions, restrictions, reservations, mineral leases, easements and other matters of record or that are visible or apparent on the Collective Leased Properties, all applicable Legal Requirements, the lien of financing instruments, mortgages and deeds of trust, and such other matters which would be disclosed by an inspection of the Collective Leased Properties and the record title thereto or by an accurate survey thereof. TENANT REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS INSPECTED THE COLLECTIVE LEASED PROPERTIES AND ALL OF THE FOREGOING AND HAS FOUND THE CONDITION THEREOF SATISFACTORY AND IS NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF LANDLORD OR LANDLORD'S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WITH RESPECT THERETO, AND TENANT WAIVES ANY CLAIM OR ACTION AGAINST LANDLORD IN RESPECT OF THE CONDITION OF THE COLLECTIVE LEASED PROPERTIES. LANDLORD MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE COLLECTIVE LEASED PROPERTIES OR ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR - 15 - PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, OR AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT, IT BEING AGREED THAT ALL SUCH RISKS ARE TO BE BORNE BY TENANT. To the maximum extent permitted by law, however, Landlord hereby assigns to Tenant all of Landlord's rights to proceed against any predecessor in title for breaches of warranties or representations or for latent defects in the Collective Leased Properties.

The initial term of this Agreement (the "Fixed Term") shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall expire on the last day of the twelfth (12th) Lease Year. 2.4 Extended Term. Provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and this Agreement shall be in full force and effect, Tenant shall, subject to Section 2.5 below, have the right to extend the Term for each of four (4) consecutive five (5)-year renewal terms (collectively, the "Extended Terms") for all, and not less than all, of the Collective Leased Properties. Each Extended Term shall commence on the day succeeding the expiration of the Fixed Term or the preceding Extended Term, as the case may be. All of the terms, covenants and provisions of this Agreement (including but not limited to those with respect to Additional Rent and payments of the Allowance) shall apply to each such Extended Term, except that (x) the Minimum Rent for each Extended Term shall be the Fair Market Rental for such Extended Term and shall be determined pursuant to Section 2.5 below and (y) Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term beyond the expiration of the Extended Terms. If Tenant shall elect to exercise any of the aforesaid options, it shall do so by giving Landlord Notice thereof not later than one (1) year prior to the scheduled expiration of the then current Term of this Agreement (Fixed Term or Extended Term, as the case may be), it being understood and agreed that time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of such Notice. Tenant may not exercise its option for more than one such Extended Term at a time. If Tenant shall fail to give any such Notice, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the Term then in effect and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Agreement. If Tenant shall give such Notice, the extension of this Agreement shall be automatically effected without the execution of any additional documents, it being understood and agreed, however, that Tenant and Landlord shall execute such documents and agreements as either party shall reasonably require to evidence the same. Notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing sentence, if, subsequent to the giving of such Notice, an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, unless Landlord shall otherwise consent in writing, the extension of this Agreement shall cease to take effect and this Agreement - 16 - shall automatically terminate at the end of the Term then in effect and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Agreement. 2.5 Determination of Minimum Rent for Extended Terms.

In the event Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the Minimum Rent for such Extended Term within such period, such Minimum Rent shall be determined pursuant to appraisal in accordance with Article 19. ARTICLE 3 RENT 3.1 Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, without offset, abatement, demand or deduction, Minimum Rent, Additional Rent and Additional Charges, during the Term, except as hereinafter expressly provided.

Rent for any partial month shall be prorated on a per diem basis based on a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. 3.1.1 Minimum Rent. Minimum Rent shall be paid in advance on the first day of each calendar month; provided, however, that the first monthly installment of Minimum Rent shall be payable on the Commencement Date. 3.1.2 Additional Rent. Additional Rent shall be paid in advance on the first day of each calendar month; provided, however, that the first monthly installment of Additional Rent shall be payable on the Commencement Date. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 12.1(a) hereof, Tenant's failure to pay Additional Rent shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default hereunder. - 17 - 3.1.3 Additional Charges. In addition to the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder, Tenant shall pay and discharge as and when due and payable the following (collectively, "Additional Charges"): (a) Impositions. Subject to Article 8 relating to Permitted Contests, Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Impositions before any fine, penalty, interest or cost (other than any opportunity cost as a result of a failure to take advantage of any discount for early payment) may be added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing authorities where feasible, and shall promptly, upon request, furnish to Landlord copies of official receipts or other satisfactory proof evidencing such payments. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and, in such event, shall pay such installments during the Term as the same become due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added thereto. Landlord, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by applicable law, prepare and file all tax returns in respect of Landlord's net income, gross receipts, sales and use, single business, transaction privilege, rent, ad valorem, franchise taxes and taxes on its capital stock, and Tenant, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by applicable laws and regulations, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by any government or Government Agency. Provided no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by Tenant, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Collective Leased Properties as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports. In the event Government Agencies classify any property covered by this Agreement as personal property, Tenant shall file all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may legally so file. Each party shall, to the extent it possesses the same, provide the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any property so classified as personal property. Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Tenant to file a protest. All Impositions assessed against such personal property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty. If the provisions of any Facility Mortgage require deposits on account of Impositions to be made with such Facility Mortgagee, provided the Facility Mortgagee has not elected to waive such - 18 - provision, Tenant shall either pay Landlord the monthly amounts required at the time and place that payments of Minimum Rent are required and Landlord shall transfer such amounts to such Facility Mortgagee or, pursuant to written direction by Landlord, Tenant shall make such deposits directly with such Facility Mortgagee. Landlord shall, however, use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause any Facility Mortgagee not to impose such obligation on Tenant. Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge; provided, however, that Landlord's failure to give any such Notice shall in no way diminish Tenant's obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions, except that Landlord shall (unless Tenant itself knew, or should have known, about the existence of such Impositions obligation) pay all penalties, fines and other expenses arising out of Landlord's failure to give such Notice. (b) Utility Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and other utilities used in connection with the Collective Leased Properties. (c) Insurance Premiums. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all premiums for the insurance coverage required to be maintained pursuant to Article 9. (d) Other Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all other amounts, liabilities and obligations which Tenant assumes or agrees to pay under this Agreement, including, without limitation, all agreements to indemnify Landlord under Sections 4.4 and 9.7. (e) Prorations. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all amounts required to be paid by OpCo under Section 10.4 of the Purchase Agreement. (f) Reimbursement for Additional Charges. If Tenant pays or causes to be paid property taxes or similar Additional Charges attributable to periods after the end of the Term, whether upon expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement (other than termination following an Event of Default), Tenant may, within sixty (60) days of the end of the Term, provide Notice to Landlord of its estimate of such amounts. Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for all payments of such taxes and other similar Additional Charges that are attributable to any period after the Term of this Agreement (unless this Agreement shall have been terminated following an Event of Default). Tenant acknowledges that it has no claims against Landlord for Additional Charges attributable to the periods prior to the first day of the Term. - 19 - 3.2 Late Payment of Rent. If any installment of (i) Minimum Rent, (ii) Additional Rent (with respect to which Landlord has made a disbursement of the Allowance) or (iii) Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional Charges which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be paid on its due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord, on demand, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this Agreement, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional Charges to the Entity to which they would otherwise be due. In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Charges when due, Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge, as Additional Charges, every fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added for non-payment or late payment of such items. Landlord shall have all legal, equitable and contractual rights, powers and remedies provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise in the case of non-payment of the Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. 3.3 Net Lease. The Minimum Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord so that this Agreement shall yield to Landlord the full amount of the installments or amounts of Minimum Rent throughout the Term, subject to any other provisions of this Agreement which expressly provide for adjustment of such Minimum Rent. 3.4 No Termination, Abatement, Etc. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, Tenant, to the maximum extent permitted by law, shall remain bound by this Agreement in accordance with its terms and shall neither take any action without the consent of Landlord to modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement, nor seek, nor be entitled to any abatement, deduction, deferment or reduction of the Rent, or set-off against the Rent, nor shall the respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant be otherwise affected by reason of (a) any damage to or destruction of any of the Collective Leased Properties or any portion thereof from whatever cause or any Condemnation; (b) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of, or restriction upon, Tenant's use of any of the Collective Leased Properties, or any portion thereof, or the interference with such use by any Person or by reason of eviction by paramount title; (c) any claim which Tenant may have against Landlord by reason of any default or breach of any warranty by Landlord under this Agreement or any other agreement between Landlord and Tenant, or to which Landlord and Tenant are parties; (d) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings affecting Landlord or any assignee or transferee of Landlord; or (e) for any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing. Tenant hereby - 20 - waives all rights arising from any occurrence whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by law, to (i) modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement or quit or surrender any of the Collective Leased Properties or any portion thereof, or (ii) entitle Tenant to any abatement, reduction, suspension or deferment of the Rent or other sums payable or other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. The obligations of Tenant hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements, and the Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant hereunder shall continue to be payable in all events unless the obligations to pay the same shall be terminated pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement. 3.5 Annual Allowance.

No Capital Addition shall be made which would tie in or connect any Leased Improvement on the applicable Leased Property with any other improvements on property adjacent to such Leased Property (and not part of the Land) including, without limitation, tie-ins of buildings or other structures or utilities.

Upon Landlord's request made as a result of a requirement of any Facility Mortgagee, Tenant shall either (i) provide a bond or other assurance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord that all Claims which may be assessed against any of the Collective Leased Properties, together with all interest and penalties thereon will be paid, or (ii) deposit within the time otherwise required for payment with a bank or trust company, as trustee, as security for the payment of such Claims, an amount sufficient to pay the same, together with interest and penalties in connection therewith and all Claims which may be assessed against or become a Claim on any of the Collective Leased - 35 - Properties, or any part thereof, in connection with any such contest. Tenant shall furnish Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee with reasonable evidence of such deposit within five (5) days after request therefor. Landlord agrees, however, to use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause any Facility Mortgagee not to require any bond or deposit by Tenant as hereinabove provided. Landlord agrees to join in any such proceedings if required legally to prosecute such contest, provided that Landlord shall not thereby be subjected to any liability therefor (including, without limitation, for the payment of any costs or expenses in connection therewith). Tenant shall be entitled to any refund of any Claims and such charges and penalties or interest thereon which have been paid by Tenant or paid by Landlord and for which Landlord has been fully reimbursed by Tenant. If Tenant shall fail (x) to pay any Claims when finally determined, (y) to provide security therefor as provided in this Article 8, or (z) to prosecute any such contest diligently and in good faith, Landlord may, upon reasonable notice to Tenant (which notice may be oral and shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine that the same is not practicable), pay such charges, together with interest and penalties due with respect thereto, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor, upon demand, as Additional Charges. ARTICLE 9 INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION 9.1 General Insurance Requirements. Tenant shall, at all times during the Term and at any other time Tenant shall be in possession of any of the Collective Leased Properties, keep each of the Collective Leased Properties and Tenant's Personal Property insured against the risks and in the amounts as follows and shall maintain (for so long as such insurance is commercially available) the following insurance: (a) "All-risk" property insurance, including insurance against loss or damage by fire, vandalism and malicious mischief, explosion of steamboilers, pressure vessels or other similar apparatus, now or hereafter installed in the Facility located at such Leased Property, extended coverage perils, earthquake (providing annual aggregate limits of One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) as to all locations outside of California and annual aggregate limits of Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) as to all locations within California) and all physical loss perils insurance, including, but not limited to, sprinkler leakage, in an amount (subject to Section 9.5) equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the then full Replacement Cost thereof (as defined in Section 9.2), with the usual extended coverage endorsements, including a Replacement Cost Endorsement and Builder's Risk Coverage during the continuance of any construction at such Leased Property; - 36 - (b) Business interruption and blanket earnings plus extra expense under a rental value insurance policy covering risk of loss during the lesser of the first twelve (12) months of reconstruction or the actual reconstruction period necessitated by the occurrence of any of the hazards described in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above in such amounts as may be customary for comparable properties in the area and in an amount sufficient to prevent Landlord or Tenant from becoming a co-insurer; (c) Comprehensive general liability insurance, including bodily injury and property damage (on the broadest form available, including broad form contractual liability, fire legal liability and completed operations coverage) having policy limits as to claims with respect to the Collective Leased Properties of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence, Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) aggregate per location, subject to a Five Million Dollar ($5,000,000) aggregate limit as to all locations, and with respect to claims arising out of malpractice in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence, subject to a Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) aggregate limit as to all Facilities, provided that such limits shall be modified to conform to any required underlying statutory coverage, such as State Patient Compensation Funds, or the like, and Umbrella coverage shall be provided having limits of Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) per occurrence and in the aggregate and attaching in excess of policy limits as to general liability, malpractice, Patient Compensation Fund programs, where applicable, and employer's liability coverage; (d) Flood (when the applicable Leased Property is located in whole or in part within an area identified as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, or the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended (or any successor acts thereto)) and such other hazards and in such amounts as may be customary for comparable properties in the area, said coverage to be in an amount equal to the lesser of the full Replacement Cost of the applicable Leased Property or the maximum amount available; (e) Worker's compensation insurance coverage for all persons employed by Tenant on the applicable Leased Property with statutory limits and otherwise with limits of and provisions in accordance with the requirements of applicable local, State and federal law, and employer's liability insurance having a limit of $1,000,000; and (f) Such additional insurance and endorsements (and/or increased amounts of insurance hereinabove required) as may be reasonably required, from time to time, by Landlord. - 37 - 9.2 Replacement Cost. "Replacement Cost" as used herein, shall mean the actual replacement cost of the property requiring replacement from time to time, including an increased cost of construction endorsement, less exclusions provided in the standard form of fire insurance policy. In the event either party believes that the then full Replacement Cost has increased or decreased at any time during the Term, such party, at its own cost, shall have the right to have such full Replacement Cost redetermined by an accredited appraiser approved by the other, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The party desiring to have the full Replacement Cost so redetermined shall forthwith, on receipt of such determination by such appraiser, give written notice thereof to the other. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding on the parties hereto, and Tenant shall forthwith conform the amount of the insurance carried to the amount so determined by the appraiser. 9.3 Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant agree that (insofar as and to the extent that such agreement may be effective without invalidating or making it impossible to secure insurance coverage from responsible insurance companies doing business in the State) with respect to any property loss which is covered by insurance then being carried by Landlord or Tenant, respectively, the party carrying such insurance and suffering said loss releases the other of and from any and all claims with respect to such loss; and they further agree that their respective insurance companies shall have no right of subrogation against the other on account thereof, even though extra premium may result therefrom. In the event that any extra premium is payable by Tenant as a result of this provision, Landlord shall not be liable for reimbursement to Tenant for such extra premium. 9.4 Form Satisfactory, Etc. All insurance policies and endorsements required pursuant to this Article 9 shall be fully paid for, nonassessable and shall contain such provisions and expiration dates and be in such form and amounts and issued by insurance carriers authorized to do business in the State, having a general policy holder's rating of at least A-in Best's latest rating guide (or such other comparable rating or such other customarily used rating agency as may be required by any Facility Mortgagee), and otherwise as shall be approved by Landlord. Without limiting the foregoing, such policies shall include only deductibles reasonably approved by Landlord and shall name Landlord and any Facility Mortgagee as additional insureds. All losses shall be payable to Landlord or Tenant as provided in Article 10. Any loss adjustment shall require the prior written consent of Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall pay all insurance premiums and deliver policies or certificates thereof to Landlord prior to their effective date (and, with respect to any renewal policy, thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the existing policy), and, in the event Tenant shall fail to effect such insurance as herein required, to pay the premiums therefor or to deliver such policies or certificates to Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee at the times required, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as Additional - 38 - Charges, together with interest accrued thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date such payment is made until the date repaid. All such policies shall provide Landlord (and any Facility Mortgagee, if required by the same) thirty (30) days' prior written notice of any material modification, expiration or cancellation of such policy. Tenant may satisfy its insurance obligations through the use of (i) a risk retention group or purchasing group or captive insurance company with a capital structure reasonably approved by Landlord or (ii) a self insurance program with retention limits reasonably approved by Landlord and an excess policy or policies provided by an insurer meeting the requirements of this Agreement. 9.5 Blanket Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 9, Tenant's obligation to maintain the insurance herein required may be brought within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or policies of insurance carried and maintained by Tenant, provided that (a) the coverage thereby afforded will not be reduced or diminished from that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other requirements of this Agreement, except that the blanket all-risk policy may provide coverage as to the Collective Leased Properties to a limit of Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000) per occurrence and (b) the requirements of this Article 9 are otherwise satisfied. 9.6 No Separate Insurance. Tenant shall not take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required by this Article 9, or increase the amount of any existing insurance by securing an additional policy or additional policies, unless all parties having an insurable interest in the subject matter of such insurance, including Landlord and all Facility Mortgagees, are included therein as additional insureds and the loss is payable under such insurance in the same manner as losses are payable under the insurance required to be carried pursuant to this Agreement. In the event Tenant shall take out any such separate insurance or increase any of the amounts of the then existing insurance, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice thereof. 9.7 Indemnification of Landlord. Notwithstanding the existence of any insurance provided for herein and without regard to the policy limits of any such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of: (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about the Collective Leased Properties or adjoining sidewalks or rights of way, including, without limitation, any claims of malpractice, (b) any past, present or future use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance or repair of the Collective Leased Properties or Tenant's Personal Property or any litigation, proceeding or claim by governmental entities or other third parties to which Landlord is made a party or participant relating to the - 39 - Collective Leased Properties or Tenant's Personal Property or such use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance, or repair thereof, including failure to perform obligations (other than Condemnation proceedings), to which Landlord is made a party, (c) any Impositions (which are the obligations of Tenant to pay pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement), and (d) any failure on the part of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Agreement. Tenant shall pay all amounts payable under this Section 9.7 within ten (10) days after demand therefor and, if not timely paid, such amounts shall bear interest at the Overdue Rate from the date of determination to the date of payment. Tenant, at its expense, shall contest, resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord or may compromise or otherwise dispose of the same, with Landlord's prior written consent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The obligations of Tenant under this Section 9.7 are in addition to the obligations set forth in Section 4.4 and shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 9.8 Independent Contractor. Tenant shall cause any person or company (each a "Contractor") entering upon any of the Collective Leased Properties to provide any installation, construction or repair which (x) constitutes a Capital Addition or (y) has an anticipated cost in excess of $250,000 to: (a) have in full force and effect Contractor's Liability Coverage (hereafter defined) effective throughout the period said Contractor is upon said Leased Property and (b) deliver a certificate ("Contractor's Insurance Certificate") evidencing compliance with subpart (a) to Tenant prior to the Contractor's first entry upon said Leased Property. As used herein the term Contractor's Liability Coverage means a comprehensive general liability insurance policy meeting the requirements of this Article 9 (as if required to be provided by Tenant) except the minimum policy limit shall be $500,000 per occurrence and $1,000,000 in the aggregate. Within thirty (30) days after delivery of Landlord's written request, Tenant shall deliver copies of all Contractor's Certificates to Landlord. ARTICLE 10 CASUALTY 10.1 Insurance Proceeds. All proceeds payable by reason of any loss or damage to the Collective Leased Properties, or any portion thereof, and insured under any policy of property or casualty insurance required by Article 9 (other than proceeds of business interruption insurance) in excess of $1,000,000 shall be paid directly to Landlord and retained by Landlord (subject to the provisions of Section 10.2). If Tenant is required to reconstruct or repair any of the Collective Leased Properties as provided herein, such proceeds shall be paid out by Landlord from time to time for the reasonable costs of reconstruction or repair of such Leased Property necessitated by such damage or destruction, subject to the provisions of Section 10.2.3. Provided no Default or Event - 40 - of Default has occurred and is continuing, any excess proceeds of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be paid to Tenant. All salvage resulting from any risk covered by insurance shall belong to Landlord. 10.2 Damage or Destruction. 10.2.1 Obligation to Restore. If, during the Term, any of the Collective Leased Properties shall be totally or partially destroyed Tenant shall promptly restore such Facility as provided in Section 10.2.3. 10.2.2 Insufficient Insurance Proceeds. If the cost of the repair or restoration of the applicable Leased Property exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord pursu ant to Article 10, upon the demand of Landlord, Tenant shall contribute any excess amounts needed to restore such Leased Property. Such difference shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord and held by Landlord, together with any other insurance proceeds, for appli cation to the cost of repair and restoration. 10.2.3 Disbursement of Proceeds. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, commence promptly and continue diligently to perform the repair and restoration of such Leased Property (hereinafter called the "Work"), or shall cause the same to be done, so as to restore such Leased Property in full compliance with all Legal Requirements and so that such Leased Property shall be at least equal in value and general utility to its general utility and value immediately prior to such damage or destruction. Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall advance such property and casualty insurance proceeds and the amounts paid to it pursuant to Section 10.2.2 to Tenant regularly during the repair and restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of any such restoration and repair. Any such advances shallbe for not less than $100,000 (or such lesser amount as equals the entire balance of the repair and restoration) and Tenant shall submit to Landlord a written requisition and substantiation therefor on such form or forms as may be reasonably acceptable to Land lord. Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of said insurance proceeds and other amounts on (i) the absence of any Default or Event of Default, (ii) its approval of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord, (iii) general contractors' estimates, (iv) architect's certificates, (v) unconditional lien waivers of general contrac tors, (vi) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required and (vii) such other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require. Landlord's obligation to disburse insurance proceeds under this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of such proceeds by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord. Tenant's obligation to restore the applicable Leased Property pursuant to this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of available insurance proceeds by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to cease operations at such Facility pursuant to and in accordance with Section 4.5 above. In the event Tenant elects to close such Facility as aforesaid, Tenant shall, as Additional Charges, pay to Landlord all property - 41 - or casualty insurance proceeds received in connection therewith, along with any deductible or retention, but in no event shall Tenant pay to Landlord less than the full Replacement Cost of such Facility, including Tenant's Personal Property. 10.3 Tenant's Property. All insurance proceeds payable by reason of any loss of or damage to any of Tenant's Personal Property shall be paid to Tenant, and, to the extent necessary to repair or replace Tenant's Personal Property in accordance with Section 10.4, Tenant shall hold such proceeds in trust to pay the cost of repairing or replacing damaged Tenant's Personal Property. 10.4 Restoration of Tenant's Property. If Tenant is required to restore the applicable Leased Property as hereinabove provided, Tenant shall either (a) restore all alterations and improvements made by Tenant and Tenant's Personal Property, or (b) replace such alterations and improvements and Tenant's Personal Property with improvements or items of the same or better quality and utility in the operation of such Leased Property. 10.5 No Abatement of Rent. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant's obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any damage involving any of the Collective Leased Properties (provided that Landlord shall credit against such payments any amounts paid to Landlord as a consequence of such damage under any business interruption insurance obtained by Tenant hereunder). The provisions of this Article 10 shall be considered an express agreement governing any cause of damage or destruction to the applicable Leased Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, laws, rules, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provide for such a contingency shall have any application in such case. 10.6 Waiver. Tenant hereby waives any statutory rights of termination which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of any of the Collective Leased Properties. - 42 - ARTICLE 11 CONDEMNATION 11.1 Total Condemnation, Etc. If either (i) the whole of any of the Collective Leased Properties shall be taken by Condemnation or (ii) a Condemnation of less than the whole of any of the Collective Leased Properties renders such Leased Property Unsuitable for Its Primary Intended Use, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Leased Property, Tenant and Landlord shall seek the Award for their interests in such Leased Property as provided in Section 11.5 and the Minimum Rent thereafter payable shall be reduced by one-twelfth (1/12th) of the product of (x) ten percent (10%), and (y) the Award received by Landlord with respect to such Leased Property, net of all expenses incurred by Landlord in obtaining the same, including reasonable attorneys' fees. 11.2 Partial Condemnation. In the event of a Condemnation of less than the whole of any of the Collective Leased Properties such that such Leased Property is still suitable for its Primary Intended Use, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, commence promptly and continue diligently to restore the untaken portion of the Leased Improvements on such Leased Property so that such Leased Improvements shall constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as the Leased Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in full compliance with all Legal Requirements. Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall contribute to the cost of restoration that part of the Award necessary to complete such repair or restoration, together with severance and other damages awarded for the taken Leased Improvements, to Tenant regularly during the restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of such repair or restoration. Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of such Award and other amounts on (i) the absence of any continuing Event of Default, (ii) its approval of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (iii) general contractors' estimates, (iv) architect's certificates, (v) unconditional lien waivers of general contractors, (vi) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required and (vii) such other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require. Landlord's obligation under this Section 11.2 to disburse the Award and such other amounts shall be subject to (x) the collection thereof by Landlord and (y) the satisfaction of any applicable requirements of any Facility Mortgage, and the release of such Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee. Tenant's obligation to restore the applicable Leased Property shall be subject to the release of the Award by the applicable Facility Mortgagee to Landlord. If the cost of the restoration of the applicable Leased Property exceeds that part of the Award necessary to complete such restoration, together with severance and other damages awarded for the taken Leased Improvements, Tenant shall contribute upon the demand of Landlord any excess amounts needed to restore such Leased Property. Such difference shall be - 43 - paid by Tenant to Landlord and held by Landlord, together with such part of the Award and such severance and other damages, for application to the cost of restoration. 11.3 Abatement of Rent. Other than as specifically provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant's obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any Condemnation involving the Collective Leased Properties. The provisions of this Article 11 shall be considered an express agreement governing any Condemnation involving any or all of the Collective Leased Properties and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such a contingency shall have any application in such case. 11.4 Temporary Condemnation. In the event of any temporary Condemnation of all or any part of the Collective Leased Properties or Tenant's interest therein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, and Tenant shall continue to pay, in the manner and on the terms herein specified, the full amount of the Rent. Tenant shall continue to perform and observe all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be performed and observed. Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Tenant. Tenant shall, promptly upon the termination of any such period of temporary Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore such Leased Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in full compliance with all Legal Requirements, unless such period of temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term, in which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration. For purposes of this Section 11.4, a Condemnation shall be deemed to be temporary if the period of such Condemnation is not expected to, and does not, exceed twenty-four (24) months. 11.5 Allocation of Award. Except as provided in the second sentence of this Section 11.5, the total Award shall be solely the property of and payable to Landlord. Any portion of the Award made for the taking of Tenant's leasehold interest in the applicable Leased Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, or Tenant's removal and relocation expenses shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant (subject to the provisions of Section 11.2). In any Condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own Award in conformity herewith, at its own expense. - 44 - ARTICLE 12 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 12.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder: (a) Tenant fails (i) to make any payment of the Rent payable hereunder when due and such failure continues for a period of ten (10) days after the date due, or (ii) to make any required payments of real estate taxes by the earlier of (a) ten (10) days following Notice from Landlord that such payment is due and owing and unpaid, and (b) the date which is 30 days prior to the date on which a Government Authority has the right to sell or initiate the process for selling the applicable Leased Property due to a failure to pay the real estate taxes. The foregoing provisions hereof notwithstanding, (x) Tenant's failure to pay Additional Rent shall not constitute an Event of Default, except if Tenant fails to pay Additional Rent in at least the amount of the Allowance disbursed to date by Landlord, and (y) with respect to the failure to pay Additional Charges that are amounts owed to third parties (other than real estate taxes), the failure to pay such amounts shall not constitute an Event of Default under this Section 12.1(a) if Tenant pays the same in full, along with all interest, penalties and late charges due and owing to such third parties, no later than ten (10) days following Notice from Landlord that such sum is due and owing. In the event Landlord gives Notice of such circumstances to Tenant twice in any Lease Year, then on each subsequent occasion for the remainder of such Lease Year when Landlord gives Tenant any such Notice, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Charges (whether or not Tenant pays such third party within ten (10) days as aforesaid), the sum of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500). (b) Tenant fails to maintain the insurance coverages required under Article 9 within five (5) days after Notice thereof from Landlord. (c) Tenant defaults in the due observance or performance of any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained herein to be performed or observed by it (other than as specified in clauses (a) and (b) above), and, in either case, such default continues for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant (provided that no such Notice shall be required if Landlord reasonably determines that immediate action is necessary to protect person or property); provided, however, that if such default is susceptible of cure but such cure cannot be accomplished with due diligence within such period of time and if, in addition, Tenant commences to cure such default within thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord and thereafter prosecutes the curing of such default with all - 45 - due diligence, such period of time shall be extended to such period of time (not to exceed an additional one hundred eighty (180) days in the aggregate) as may be necessary to cure such default with all due diligence. (d) Any obligation of Tenant in respect of any Indebtedness in a principal amount in excess of $10,000,000 for money borrowed or for the deferred purchase price of any material property or services, is declared to be, or as a result of acceleration becomes, due and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof. (e) There occurs a final unappealable determination by applicable federal or State authorities of the revocation or limitation of any license, permit, certification, certificate of need or approval required for the lawful operation of any of the Facilities in accordance with its Primary Intended Use or the loss or limitation of any license, permit, certification, certificate of need or approval under any other circumstances under which Tenant is required to cease its operation of such Facility in accordance with its Primary Intended Use at the time of such loss or limitation, provided, however, that if Tenant ceases its operations in such Facility pursuant to and in accordance with its right to do so under Section 4.5 hereof, the closing thereof shall cause such Event of Default to be deemed no longer continuing. (f) Any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of Tenant under or in connection with this Agreement, or in any document, certificate, or agreement delivered in connection herewith proves to have been false or misleading in any material respect on the date when made or deemed made. (g) Tenant is generally not paying its debts as they become due, or Tenant makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors. (h) Any petition is filed by or against Tenant under the Federal bankruptcy laws, or any other proceeding is instituted by or against Tenant seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for Tenant or for any substantial part of the property of Tenant and such proceeding is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after institution thereof, or Tenant takes any action to authorize or effect any of the actions set forth above in this paragraph. (i) Tenant causes or institutes any proceeding for its dissolution or termination. (j) subject to Section 4.5 hereof, Tenant voluntarily ceases operation of any of the Collective Leased Properties for its Primary Intended Use for a period in excess of - 46 - thirty (30) consecutive days, except as a result of damage, destruction or partial or complete Condemnation. (k) The estate or interest of Tenant in any of the Collective Leased Properties or any part thereof is levied upon or attached in any proceeding and the same is not vacated or discharged within the later of (x) one hundred and twenty (120) days after commencement thereof, unless the amount in dispute is less than $100,000 in which case Tenant shall give notice to Landlord of the dispute but Tenant may defend in any suitable way, and (y) thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of Notice thereof from Landlord (unless Tenant shall be contesting such lien or attachment in good faith in accordance with Article 8). (l) Any Change in Control of Tenant occurs. In any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies available to it, may terminate this Agreement with respect to all but not less than all of the Collective Leased Properties by giving Notice thereof to Tenant and upon the expiration of the time, if any, fixed in such Notice, this Agreement shall terminate and all rights of Tenant under this Agreement shall cease. Landlord shall have and may exercise all rights and remedies available at law and in equity to Landlord as a result of Tenant's breach of this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, enter upon the Collective Leased Properties and take possession of, and either (i) retain any and all of Tenant's Personal Property on any such Leased Property, without liability for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to Notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) or (ii) sell the same at public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable Notice of the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Tenant or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant's Personal Property. Unless otherwise provided by law and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable Notice shall be met if such Notice is given at least five (5) days before the date of sale. The proceeds from any such disposition shall belong to Landlord and shall not be applied as a credit against the indebtedness which is secured by the security interest granted in Section 7.2. The foregoing provisions hereof notwithstanding, Landlord shall have no right to assert any remedy hereunder, and an Event of Default shall be deemed to no longer exist, if Tenant cures an Event of Default (A) under Section 12.1(a) prior to the earlier of (x) the commencement by Landlord of the exercise of any remedy under this Agreement by Landlord or (y) Landlord's Notice to Tenant stating that an Event of Default exists and further stating Landlord's intention to assert one or more remedies hereunder; and (B) under any of Section 12.(b)-(l), prior to the commencement by Landlord of the exercise of any remedy under this Agreement by Landlord. - 47 - 12.2 Remedies. None of (a) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1, (b) the repossession of the Collective Leased Properties, (c) the failure of Landlord to re-let any or all of the Collective Leased Properties, or (d) the reletting of any or all of the Collective Leased Properties, shall relieve Tenant of its liability and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such termination, repossession or re-letting. In the event of any such termination, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord all Rent due and payable with respect to the Collective Leased Properties through and including the date of such termination. Thereafter, Tenant, until the end of what would have been the Term of this Agreement in the absence of such termination, and whether or not any of the Collective Leased Properties or any portion thereof shall have been re-let, shall be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord, as current damages, the Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the Term had such termination not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any re-letting of the Collective Leased Properties, after deducting all expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys' fees, advertising, expenses of employees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such reletting. Tenant shall pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Minimum Rent would have been payable hereunder if this Agreement had not been so terminated. At any time after such termination, whether or not Landlord shall have collected any such current damages, as liquidated final damages beyond the date of such termination, at Landlord's election, Tenant shall pay to Landlord either (a) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Rent and other charges which would be payable hereunder from the date of such termination (assuming that, for the purposes of this paragraph, annual payments by Tenant on account of Impositions would be the same as payments required for the immediately preceding twelve calendar months, or if less than twelve calendar months have expired since the Commencement Date, the payments required for such lesser period projected to an annual amount) for what would be the then unexpired term of this Agreement if the same remained in effect, over the Fair Market Rental for the same period, or (b) an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Rent and other charges that would have been payable for the balance of the Term had it not been terminated, and (ii) the aggregate of the Rent and other charges accrued in the twelve (12) months ended next prior to such termination (without reduction for any free rent or other concession or abatement). In the event this Agreement is so terminated prior to the expiration of the first full year of the Term, the liquidated damages which Landlord may elect to recover pursuant to clause (b)(ii) of this paragraph shall be calculated as if such termination had occurred on the first anniversary of the Commencement Date. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater than, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to above. - 48 - In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration and dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (a) relet any of the Collective Leased Properties or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms which may, at Landlord's option, be equal to, less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers advisable and necessary to relet the same, and (b) may make such reasonable alterations, repairs and decorations in any applicable Leased Property or any portion thereof as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting any such Leased Property; and the making of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid. Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for any failure to relet all or any portion of the Collective Leased Properties, or, in the event that any of the Collective Leased Properties is relet, for failure to collect the rent under such reletting. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of any of the Collective Leased Properties, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and conditions of this Agreement. 12.3 Tenant's Waiver. IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.1 OR 12.2, TENANT WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF SUMMARY PROCEEDINGS TO ENFORCE THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 12 AND THE BENEFIT OF ANY LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN FORCE EXEMPTING PROPERTY FROM LIABILITY FOR RENT OR FOR DEBT. 12.4 Application of Funds. Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this Agreement during the existence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Default or Event of Default) shall be applied to Tenant's obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State. 12.5 Landlord's Right to Cure Tenant's Default. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord, after Notice to Tenant (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without waiving or releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to), at any time thereafter, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon any of the - 49 - Collective Leased Properties or any portion thereof for such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor, including the management of the Facility located thereon by Landlord or its designee, and Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints, in the event of such election by Landlord, Landlord or its designee as manager of any such Facility and its attorney in fact for such purpose, irrevocably and coupled with an interest, in the name, place and stead of Tenant. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant. All reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Overdue Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand. 12.6 Landlord's Right to Assume Contracts. In the event Landlord elects to terminate this Agreement or otherwise obtains possession of the Collective Leased Properties following an Event of Default, Landlord (or its designee) shall have the right, at its sole and absolute discretion, upon Notice to Tenant within sixty (60) days after Landlord terminates this Agreement or otherwise obtains possession following an Event of Default, to assume all (but not less than all) of the contracts utilized by Tenant in the operation of its business, including the Franchise Agreement, and Tenant will cooperate in effecting such assumption. In no event will Landlord (or its designee) have any liability under such contracts for obligations or liabilities accruing under such contracts prior to the date of such assumption by such party. ARTICLE 13 HOLDING OVER Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rate equal to two (2) times the Minimum Rent then in effect plus Additional Charges and other charges herein provided (prorated on a daily basis). Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages (direct or indirect) sustained by reason of any such holding over. Otherwise, such holding over shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to the extent applicable. Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express or implied, of Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. ARTICLE 14 LANDLORD'S DEFAULT If Landlord shall default in the performance or observance of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement and such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Tenant to Landlord and any applicable Facility Mortgagee, or - 50 - such additional period as may be reasonably required to correct the same, Tenant may declare the occurrence of a "Landlord Default" by a second Notice to Landlord and to such Facility Mortgagee. Thereafter, Tenant may forthwith cure the same and, subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, invoice Landlord for costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) incurred by Tenant in curing the same, together with interest thereon from the date Landlord receives Tenant's invoice, at the Overdue Rate. Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Agreement for any default by Landlord hereunder and no right, for any such default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other charges due hereunder. If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, no Landlord Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse determination thereof. If Tenant and Landlord shall fail, in good faith, to resolve any such dispute within ten (10) days after Landlord's Notice of dispute, either may submit the matter for resolution to a court of competent jurisdiction. ARTICLE 15 LANDLORD FINANCING In the event that at any time during the Term, OpCo, or any Subsidiary of OpCo, shall elect to obtain financing for any health care related facilities owned or leased or to be owned or leased by OpCo, or such Subsidiary, OpCo shall give (or cause such Subsidiary to give, as the case may be) Notice thereof to Landlord, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the terms of such financing, shall identify the source thereof and shall include a copy of an applicable commitment letter. Landlord shall have the right, exercisable by the giving of Notice to OpCo (or such Subsidiary, as the case may be) within thirty (30) days after such Notice from OpCo (or such Subsidiary, as the case may be), to provide such financing on the same terms and conditions as described in the Notice given to Landlord. In the event that Landlord shall exercise such option, OpCo (or such Subsidiary, as the case may be) shall be obligated to obtain such financing from Landlord on the terms and conditions set forth in the Notice to Landlord. In the event that Landlord shall decline to provide such financing or shall fail to give such Notice to OpCo (or such Subsidiary, as the case may be), OpCo (or such Subsidiary, as the case may be) shall be free to obtain such financing from the party identified in, and on the terms and conditions set forth in, the Notice given to Landlord with respect thereto. Notices to OpCo and any Subsidiary shall be given as if a Notice to Tenant. - 51 - ARTICLE 16 SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT 16.1 Subletting and Assignment. Except as provided in Sections 16.3 and 16.5 below, Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord (which consent may be given or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion), assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer this Agreement or sublease (which term shall be deemed to include the granting of concessions, licenses and the like), all or any part of the Collective Leased Properties or suffer or permit this Agreement or the leasehold estate created hereby or any other rights arising under this Agreement to be assigned, transferred, mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated or encumbered, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, or permit the use or occupancy of any of the Collective Leased Properties by anyone other than Tenant, or any of the Collective Leased Properties to be offered or advertised for assignment or subletting. For purposes of this Section 16.1, an assignment of this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Change in Control of Tenant. If this Agreement is assigned or if any of the Collective Leased Properties or any part thereof are sublet (or occupied by anybody other than Tenant and its employees) in contravention of this Agreement, Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 16.1, the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement. No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder, and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the prohibition set forth in this Section 16.1. No assignment, subletting or occupancy shall affect any Primary Intended Use. Any subletting, assignment or other transfer of Tenant's interest under this Agreement in contravention of this Section 16.1 shall be voidable at Landlord's option. 16.2 Required Sublease Provisions. Any sublease of all or any portion of any of the Collective Leased Properties shall provide (a) that it is subject and subordinate to this Agreement and to the matters to which this Agreement is or shall be subject or subordinate; (b) that in the event of termination of this Agreement or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Agreement, Landlord may, at its option, terminate such sublease or take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord's option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord - 52 - nor any Facility Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Agreement, if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease not consented to in writing by Landlord or by any previous prepayment of more than one (1) month's Rent, (iv) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of such Leased Property or any portion thereof, (v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for under the sublease that are to be performed after the date of such attornment, (vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of such subtenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any portion of the Collective Leased Properties; and (c), in the event that such subtenant receives a written Notice from Landlord or any Facility Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such party may direct. All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Facility Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn. An original counterpart of each such sublease and assignment and assumption, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord upon request and (a) in the case of an assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep and perform all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the performance thereof and (b) in case of either an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The provisions of this Section 16.2 shall not be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1. 16.3 Permitted Assignments and Subleases. Notwithstanding the requirements set forth in Section 16.1 that Landlord's prior written consent be obtained in connection with any assignment, mortgage, pledge, encumbrance or other transfer of this Lease or any sublease of all or any part of the Collective Leased Properties, but subject to the provisions of Section 16.4 and any other express conditions or limitations set forth in this Article 16, Tenant may, in each instance, (x) after Notice to Landlord, sublease any or all of the Collective Leased Properties, or assign this Agreement, to any Qualified Affiliate and (y) sublease space at any of the Collective Leased Properties for laundry, commissary, child care or medical office or other purposes in furtherance of the applicable Primary Intended Use, so long as such sublease will not violate or affect any Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement, and - 53 - Tenant shall provide such additional insurance coverage applicable to the activities to be conducted in such subleased space as Landlord may require. In connection with any sublease of any Leased Property, or assignment of this Agreement, any and all Facilities affected by or the subject of such transaction shall continue to be operated under and pursuant to the Franchise Agreement, and Tenant shall provide to Landlord, upon request, documentation confirming that the operation thereof, in such manner, has the approval and consent of Franchisor. 16.4 Sublease Limitation. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet any of the Collective Leased Properties on any basis such that all or any part of the Rent would fail to qualify as "rents from real property" within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto. This limitation shall include, but not be limited to, situations where (a) the rental to be paid by any sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on the income or profits derived by the business activities of such sublessee, or (b) the sublessee would have a relationship to Crescent Real Estate Equities, Inc., described in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto. 16.5 Tenant's Right to Mortgage its Leasehold. Tenant may, subject to Article 15 and Section 6.6 hereof, assign its interest in this Agreement to a Lending Institution as collateral for Indebtedness, provided, however, any security interests in any property of Tenant, including without limitation Tenant's leasehold interest in the Collective Leased Properties, shall be expressly and fully subordinated to this Agreement and to the interest of Landlord in the Collective Leased Properties and to the rights of any then or thereafter existing Facility Mortgagee. ARTICLE 17 ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 17.1 Estoppel Certificates. At any time and from time to time, upon not less than ten (10) days prior Notice by Landlord, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord an Officer's Certificate certifying that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or that this Agreement is in full force and effect as modified and setting forth the modifications), the date to which the Rent has been paid, that no Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, if a Default or an Event of Default shall exist, specifying in reasonable detail the nature thereof, and the steps being taken to remedy the same, and such additional information as Landlord may reasonably request. Any such certificate furnished pursuant to this Section 17.1 may be relied upon by Landlord, any Facility Mortgagee and any prospective purchaser or mortgagee of any of the Collective Leased Properties. - 54 - 17.2 Financial Statements. OpCo shall furnish the following statements to Landlord: (a) within forty-five (45) days after each of the first three quarters of any Fiscal Year, the most recent Financials and the most recent unaudited financial statements of OpCo accompanied by the Financial Officer's Certificate; (b) within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, the most recent Financials for such Fiscal Year, including the most recent financial statements of OpCo audited and reported upon by an independent certified public accountant reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and accompanied by a Financial Officer's Certificate; (c) within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month, an unaudited statement of income of OpCo, accompanied by a Financial Officer's Certificate; (d) promptly after the sending or filing thereof, copies of all periodic reports which OpCo files with the SEC or any stock exchange on which its shares are listed or traded; (e) promptly after the delivery thereof to OpCo, a copy of any management letter or written report prepared by the certified public accountants with respect to the financial condition, operations, business or prospects of OpCo, as the case may be; and (f) at the expense of Landlord, at any time and from time to time upon not less than forty-five (45) days Notice from Landlord, any Financials or any other financial reporting information required to be filed by Landlord with any securities and exchange commission, the SEC or any successor agency, or any other governmental authority, or required pursuant to any order issued by any court, governmental authority or arbitrator in any litigation to which Landlord is a party, for purposes of compliance therewith, promptly, upon Notice from Landlord, such other information concerning the business, financial condition and affairs of Tenant as Landlord may reasonably request from time to time. Landlord may at any time, and from time to time, provide any Facility Mortgagee with copies of any of the foregoing statements, provided that such Facility Mortgagee has executed and delivered a confidentiality agreement reasonably satisfactory to Tenant. - 55 - 17.3 General Operations. Tenant covenants and agrees to furnish to Landlord within thirty (30) days after written request therefor: 17.3.1 Reimbursement, Licensure, Etc. Within thirty (30) days after receipt or modification thereof : (a) copies of all material licenses and certificates of need authorizing Tenant to operate each Facility for its Primary Intended Use; (b) a list of all Medicare and Medicaid certifications and all related participating provider agreements; and (c) copies of all reports of surveys, statements of deficiencies, plans of correction, and all material correspondence relating thereto, including, without limitation, all reports and material correspondence concerning compliance with or enforcement of licensure, Medicare/Medicaid, and accreditation requirements, including physical environment and Life Safety Code survey reports (excluding, however, correspondence which may be subject to any attorney-client privilege). Upon Notice from Landlord from time to time, Tenant shall make available for inspection and copying by Landlord, where such records are kept and maintained in the normal course of business: (d) all Medicare and Medicaid certifications, together with all participating provider agreements and all material correspondence relating thereto with respect to each Facility (excluding, however, correspondence which may be subject to any attorney-client privilege); and (e) such other confirmation as to the licensure and Medicare and Medicaid participation of Tenant as Landlord may reasonably request from time to time. 17.3.2 Annual Budgets. Not less than sixty (60) days after the commencement of any Fiscal Year, proposed annual income and ordinary expense and capital improvement budgets setting forth projected income and costs and expenses projected to be incurred by Tenant in managing, owning, maintaining and operating the Facilities during the next succeeding Fiscal Year. - 56 - ARTICLE 18 LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO INSPECT Tenant shall permit Landlord and its authorized representatives to inspect the Collective Leased Properties during usual business hours upon not less than twenty-four (24) hours' notice (provided that no such notice shall be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), and to make such repairs as Landlord is permitted or required to make pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, provided that any inspection or repair by Landlord or its representatives will not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use and operation of the applicable Leased Property and further provided that in the event of an emergency, as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion, prior Notice shall not be necessary. ARTICLE 19 APPRAISAL In the event that it becomes necessary to determine the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental of any of the Collective Leased Properties for any purpose of this Agreement and the parties cannot agree thereon, such Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, shall be determined upon the written demand of either party in accordance with the following procedure. The party requesting an appraisal, by Notice given to the other, shall propose and unilaterally approve a Qualified Appraiser. The other party, by Notice given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such Notice appointing the first Qualified Appraiser, may appoint a second Qualified Appraiser. If the other party fails to appoint the second Qualified Appraiser within such fifteen (15)-day period, such party shall have waived its right to appoint a Qualified Appraiser, the first Qualified Appraiser shall appoint a second Qualified Appraiser within fifteen (15) days thereafter, and the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Qualified Appraisers as set forth below. The two Qualified Appraisers shall thereupon endeavor to agree upon the Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental, as the case may be. If the two Qualified Appraisers so named cannot agree upon such value or rental, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after the designation of the second such appraiser, each such appraiser shall, within five (5) days after the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period, submit his appraisal of fair market value to the other appraiser in writing, and if the fair market values set forth in such appraisals vary by five percent (5%) or less of the greater value, the fair market value shall be determined by calculating the average of the two fair market values determined by the two appraisers. - 57 - If the fair market values set forth in the two appraisals vary by more than five percent (5%) of the greater value, the two Qualified Appraisers shall select a third Qualified Appraiser within an additional fifteen (15) days following the expiration of the aforesaid five (5)-day period. If the two appraisers are unable to agree upon the appointment of a third appraiser within such fifteen (15)-day period, either party may, upon written notice to the other, request that such appointment be made by the then President (or equivalent officer) of the State's Chapter of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, or his or her designee or, if there is no such organization or if such individual declines to make such appointment, by any state or Federal court of competent jurisdiction for the State. In the event that all three of the appraisers cannot agree upon Fair Market Value or Fair Market Rental, as the case may be, within twenty (20) days following the selection of the third appraiser, each appraiser shall, within ten (10) days thereafter, submit his appraisal of fair market value to the other two appraisers in writing, and the fair market value shall be determined by calculating the average of the two numerically closest values (or, if the values are equidistant, the average of all three values) determined by the three appraisers. In the event that any appraiser appointed hereunder does not or is unable to perform his or her obligation hereunder, then the party or the appraisers appointing such appraiser shall have the right to propose and approve unilaterally a substitute Qualified Appraiser, but if the party or the appraisers who have the right to appoint a substitute Qualified Appraiser fail to do so within ten (10) days after written notice from the other party (or either party in the event such appraiser was appointed by the other appraisers), either party may, upon written notice to the party having the right to appoint a substitute Qualified Appraiser, request that such appointment be made by such officer of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers or court of competent jurisdiction as described above; provided, however, that a party who has the right to appoint an appraiser or a substitute appraiser shall have the right to make such appointment only up until the time such appointment is made by such officer or court. In connection with the appraisal process, Tenant shall provide the appraisers full access during normal business hours to examine the applicable Leased Property, the books, records and files of Tenant and all agreements, leases and other operating agreements relating to the applicable Leased Property. The costs (other than Landlord's counsel fees) of each such appraisal shall be borne by Tenant and shall be included as part of the Additional Charges. Upon determining such value, the appraisers shall promptly notify Landlord and Tenant in writing of such determination. If any party shall fail to appear at the hearings appointed by the appraisers, the appraisers may act in the absence of such party. The determination of the Qualified Appraisers made in accordance with the foregoing provisions shall be final and binding upon the parties, such determination may be entered as an award in arbitration in a court of competent jurisdiction, and judgment thereon may be entered. - 58 - Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (x) the parties agree that the Minimum Rent for the Fixed Term provided for in Section 1.64 hereof shall not be evidence of the Fair Market Rental for any Extended Term, and (y) if Minimum Rent for any Extended Term as determined by appraisal pursuant to this Article 19 is not satisfactory to Landlord, in Landlord's sole discretion, or Franchisor elects to void Tenant's extension of the Franchise Agreement with respect to such Extended Term pursuant to the Franchise Agreement, then Landlord shall have the right to render void Tenant's election to extend the Term with respect to such Extended Term upon Notice given to Tenant no later than thirty (30) days following the later of the determination of the Minimum Rent pursuant to this Article 19, or Franchisor's election to render void the extension of the Franchise Agreement pursuant to the Franchise Agreement, in which event this Agreement shall expire on the last day of the Fixed Term or the then current Extended Term, as applicable. ARTICLE 20 FACILITY MORTGAGES 20.1 Landlord May Grant Liens. Without the consent of Tenant, Landlord may, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 20.1, from time to time, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause to exist any lien, encumbrance or title retention agreement ("Encumbrance") upon any of the Collective Leased Properties, or any portion thereof or interest therein, whether to secure any borrowing or other means of financing or refinancing. Any such Encumbrance shall include the right to prepay (whether or not subject to a prepayment penalty) and shall provide (subject to Section 20.2 below) that it is subject to the rights of Tenant under this Agreement. 20.2 Subordination of Lease. Subject to Section 20.1, this Agreement, any and all rights of Tenant hereunder, are and shall be subject and subordinate to any ground or master lease, and all renewals, extensions, modifications and replacements thereof, and to all mortgages and deeds of trust, which may now or hereafter affect the Collective Leased Properties, or any of them, or any improvements thereon and/or any of such leases, whether or not such mortgages or deeds of trust shall also cover other lands and/or buildings and/or leases, to each and every advance made or hereafter to be made under such mortgages and deeds of trust, and to all renewals, modifications, replacements and extensions of such leases and such mortgages and deeds of trust and all consolidations of such mortgages and deeds of trust. This section shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, (i) Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any instrument that Landlord, the lessor under any such lease or the holder of any such mortgage or the trustee or beneficiary of any deed of trust or any of their respective successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination, and (ii) the lessor under any such lease or the holder of any such mortgage or the trustee or - 59 - beneficiary of any such deed of trust shall execute and deliver to Tenant a Non-Disturbance Agreement reasonably satisfactory to Tenant (taking into account, however, the reasonable requirements of the lessor or lender, including a lender becoming such in connection with a non-recourse securitized loan), including provisions with respect to insurance and casualty matters. Any lease to which this Agreement is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate is herein called "Superior Lease" and the lessor of a Superior Lease or its successor in interest at the time referred to, is herein called "Superior Landlord" and any mortgage or deed of trust to which this Agreement is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate, is herein called "Superior Mortgage" and the holder, trustee or beneficiary of a Superior Mortgage is herein called "Superior Mortgagee." If any Superior Landlord or Superior Mortgagee or the nominee or designee of any Superior Landlord or Superior Mortgagee shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Agreement with respect to one or more of the Collective Leased Properties, whether through possession or foreclosure action or delivery of a new lease or deed, or otherwise, then at the request of such party so succeeding to Landlord's rights (herein called "Successor Landlord") and upon such Successor Landlord's written agreement to accept Tenant's attornment, Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such Successor Landlord as Tenant's landlord under this Agreement with respect to one or more of the Collective Leased Properties, and shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment.

ARTICLE 21 ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF TENANT 21.1 Conduct of Business.

ARTICLE 22 MISCELLANEOUS 22.1 Limitation on Payment of Rent. All agreements between Landlord and Tenant herein are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of Rent, or otherwise, shall the Rent or any other amounts payable to Landlord under this Agreement exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law, the benefit of which may be asserted by Tenant as a defense, and if, from any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Agreement, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, or if from any circumstances Landlord should ever receive as fulfillment of such provision such an excessive amount, then, ipso facto, the amount which would be excessive shall be applied to the reduction of the installment(s) of Minimum Rent next - 62 - due and not to the payment of such excessive amount. This provision shall control every other provision of this Agreement and any other agreements between Landlord and Tenant. 22.2 No Waiver. No failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial payment of Rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any such term. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach. 22.3 Remedies Cumulative. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each legal, equitable or contractual right, power and remedy of Landlord, now or hereafter provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord of any one or more of such rights, powers and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of such other rights, powers and remedies. 22.4 Severability. Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision of this Agreement held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or ineffective shall not impair, invalidate or nullify the remainder of this Agreement, but rather the effect thereof shall be confined to the clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision so held to be invalid, illegal or ineffective, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or ineffective provisions had never been contained therein. 22.5 Acceptance of Surrender. No surrender to Landlord of this Agreement or of any of the Collective Leased Properties or any part thereof, or of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender. 22.6 No Merger of Title. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that there shall be no merger of this Agreement or of the leasehold estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own or hold, directly or indirectly this Agreement or the - 63 - leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord's interest in any of the Collective Leased Properties. 22.7 Conveyance by Landlord. If Landlord or any successor owner of all or any portion of any of the Collective Leased Properties shall convey all or any portion of the Collective Leased Properties in accordance with the terms hereof other than as security for a debt, and the grantee or transferee of such of the Collective Leased Properties shall expressly assume all obligations of Landlord hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or transfer, Landlord or such successor owner, as the case may be, shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations of Landlord under this Agreement with respect to such of the Collective Leased Properties arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer and all such future liabilities and obligations shall thereupon be binding upon the new owner. 22.8 Quiet Enjoyment. So long as Tenant shall pay the Rent as the same becomes due and shall comply with all of the terms of this Agreement, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Collective Leased Properties for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Encumbrance permitted under Article 20 or otherwise permitted to be created by Landlord hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant any right to cancel or terminate this Agreement or abate, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other sum payable under this Agreement, or to fail to perform any other obligation of Tenant hereunder. 22.9 Landlord's Consent. Where provision is made in this Agreement for Landlord's consent and Landlord shall fail or refuse to give such consent, Tenant shall not be entitled to any damages for any withholding by Landlord of its consent, it being intended that Tenant's sole remedy shall be an action for specific performance or injunction, and that such remedy shall be available only in those cases where Landlord has expressly agreed in writing not unreasonably to withhold its consent. 22.10 Memorandum of Lease. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Agreement. However, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly, upon the request of the other, enter into a short form memorandum of this Agreement, in form suitable for recording under the laws of the State in which reference to this Agreement, and all options contained herein, shall be made. Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses of recording such memorandum. - 64 - 22.11 Notices.

Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of exercise of the right provided for in this Section 22.15, Tenant shall have the right, from time to time, to substitute for a Designated Leased Property another parcel of improved real property meeting criteria hereinafter set forth and otherwise acceptable to Landlord (the "Substitute Leased Property"). If Tenant makes such election, Tenant shall give Notice to Landlord of - 67 - Tenant's intention proposing a substitution closing date (the "Substitution Date") not less than sixty (60) days or more than one-hundred twenty (120) days from the date of such Notice and offering to Landlord a proposed Substitute Leased Property meeting the following criteria: the Substitute Leased Property shall be improved with a Comparable Facility; shall have a total value equal to or greater than the total value of the Designated Leased Property to Landlord (each as reasonably determined by Landlord); shall be freely transferable to Landlord unencumbered by any existing lease, mortgage, or other encumbrance; and shall be subject to no other exceptions to title except those approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall convey the Substitute Leased Property to Landlord in exchange for the Designated Leased Property, Landlord shall simultaneously exchange the Designated Leased Property, for the Substitute Leased Property, and the parties shall simultaneously execute and deliver an amendment to this Lease. The Landlord shall have thirty (30) days following receipt of such Notice within which to accept or reject such offer; provided, however, that Landlord shall have at least ten (10) days following receipt of any appraisal of the Substitute Leased Property or the Designated Leased Property (or both) requested by Landlord within which to accept or reject such offer. If Landlord accepts the proposed Substitute Leased Property, the substitution shall proceed in a manner (a) intended to qualify such substitution as a "like-kind" exchange within the meaning of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") with respect to Landlord, and (b) which will satisfy Landlord's requirements related to taxation as a real estate investment trust. Landlord may demand, at Tenant's expense, a reasonably acceptable opinion of counsel or private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that the substitution will have no material adverse tax consequences to Landlord. After closing, the Substitute Leased Property shall be deemed a Leased Property for all purposes. Substitution hereunder and the closing shall be made on the following terms and shall be subject to the following conditions: (a) on the Substitution Date, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a warranty deed in the customary form for the relevant jurisdiction conveying to Landlord, free and clear of any title exceptions except those approved by Landlord as set forth above, title to the Substitute Leased Property, and Landlord shall simultaneously execute, acknowledge and deliver to Tenant a warranty deed conveying to Tenant, free and clear of title exceptions, except Permitted Encumbrances and those approved by Tenant (based on the same criteria for approval as for Landlord), title to the Designated Leased Property; provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord have any obligation to cure or remove title exceptions affecting the Designated Leased Property, Tenant's only recourse being to designate an alternative Designated Leased Property for substitution or to rescind its Notice of election to substitute a Substitute Leased Property. (b) on or prior to the Substitution Date, Landlord and Tenant shall have executed, acknowledged and delivered an amendment to this Lease (the "Amendment to Lease") (the Lease, as amended, herein referred to as the "Amended Lease") which shall provide for the deletion of the legal description of the Designated - 68 - Leased Property and the substitution of the legal description of the Substitute Leased Property therefor. (c) Tenant shall have provided Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost, with a title insurance policy satisfactory in form and substance to Landlord, effective on the date of exchange, covering the Substitute Leased Property and containing no exceptions to title to the Substitute Leased Property other than encumbrances approved by Landlord as provided herein, and having such affirmative insurance and endorsements as may be required by Landlord. (d) Tenant shall have provided Landlord with representations and warranties with respect to the Substitute Leased Property reasonably satisfactory to Landlord (unless otherwise reasonably required, generally similar to the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.1 of that certain Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of ____________, 1997, by and between Magellan Health Services, Inc., as seller, and Landlord, as purchaser (the "Purchase Agreement")), such representations and warranties shall survive the closing and Landlord shall have the same remedies for breach thereof as are provided for in the Purchase Agreement. (e) Tenant shall provide Landlord with documentation satisfactory to Landlord confirming that Tenant has the right to operate the Substitute Leased Property in accordance with the Primary Intended Use and under and pursuant to the Franchise Agreement. (f) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, as Additional Charges, for any and all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord, including Landlord's reasonable attorneys' fees, in effecting the substitution proposed (whether or not closing occurs). Landlord and Tenant hereby covenant that once the Notice of intent to substitute a Substitute Leased Property for the Designated Leased Property described therein has been delivered and Landlord accepts the Substitute Leased Property identified therein, each party will promptly perform all acts and deliver all documents required on its part to be delivered or to satisfy the conditions of closing set forth herein. In the event that the Substitute Leased Property has not been exchanged for the Designated Leased Property within thirty (30) days after the Substitution Date specified in Tenant's Notice of its intention to substitute by reason of the acts or omissions of one party, then the other party shall have the right to elect not to proceed with the substitution. Tenant covenants that, following the closing of the exchange of the Substitute Leased Property, neither it nor any of its Affiliated Persons will use the Designated Leased Property as a facility having as its primary use the Primary Intended Use for at least one year after the Substitution Date. - 69 - 22.16 No Broker. Each party hereby represents and warrants to the other that it has not engaged, dealt with or otherwise discussed this transaction with any broker, agent or finder. Each party agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any claim arising out of a breach of the foregoing agreement and representation and warranty. 22.17 Confidentiality. Landlord shall maintain the confidentiality of information provided by Tenant pursuant to Sections 17.2 and 17.3 hereof or otherwise under this Agreement. Landlord may, however, disclose such information to its attorneys, consultants, partners, directors, officers and employees, and lenders and purchasers (actual and potential). As a condition of such disclosure to any lender or purchaser (actual or potential), such lender or purchaser shall be obligated to execute a Confidentiality Agreement reasonably satisfactory to Tenant. The provisions of this Section 22.18 shall not be applicable to disclosure of information required by applicable law, rule or regulation or the order of any court. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as a sealed instrument as of the date above first written.

GUARANTY OF FRANCHISEE OBLIGATIONS 3.1. Definition of "Obligations". The term "Obligations", as used in this Article 3, shall refer to any and all debts, obligations, and liabilities of each and every of the present and future OpCo Franchisees to Franchisor arising out of or relating to the OpCo Franchisees' respective Franchise Agreements with Franchisor, whether such Franchise Agreements and/or such debts, obligations and liabilities are heretofore, now, or hereafter made, incurred, or created, whether such debts, obligations and liabilities are voluntary or involuntary, liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, and including but not limited to contingent debts, obligations and liabilities, and including both principal and interest on such debts, obligations or liabilities, and whether or not any or all such debts, obligations and liabilities are or become unenforceable against OpCo Franchisees as a result of the operation of bankruptcy or insolvency laws. 3.2. Guaranty. OpCo hereby (a) unconditionally guarantees the full and prompt payment and performance of the Obligations when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, (b) agrees to pay all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Franchisor in enforcing this guaranty and the Obligations and realizing on any collateral therefor, and (c) agrees to pay to Franchisor the amount of any payments which were made to Franchisor or another in full or partial satisfaction of the Obligations and which are recovered from Franchisor by a trustee, receiver, creditor or other party pursuant to applicable law. This is a guarantee of payment, and not of collection. Franchisor shall not be obligated to: (i) take any steps whatsoever to collect from, or to file any claim of any kind against any OpCo Franchisee, any guarantor, or any other person or entity liable for payment or performance of any of the 4 Obligations, or (ii) take any steps whatsoever to protect, accept, obtain, enforce, take possession of, perfect its interest in, foreclose or realize on collateral or security, if any, for the payment or performance of any of the Obligations or any guarantee of any of the Obligations, or (iii) in any other respect exercise any diligence whatever in collecting or attempting to collect any of the Obligations by any means. 3.3. OpCo's Liability Absolute. OpCo shall have the right to assert any defenses to enforcement of the Obligations that would be available to OpCo Franchisees, other than defenses based on bankruptcy or insolvency laws. However, except for the preceding sentence, OpCo's liability for payment and performance of the Obligations shall be absolute and unconditional. OpCo unconditionally and irrevocably waives each and every defense which, under principles of guarantee or suretyship law, would otherwise operate to impair or diminish such liability; and nothing whatever except actual full payment and performance to Franchisor of the Obligations shall operate to discharge OpCo's liability under this Article 3. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Franchisor shall have the exclusive right, which may be exercised from time to time without diminishing or impairing the liability of OpCo in any respect, and without notice of any kind to OpCo, to: (a) in connection with the relationship between Franchisor and any OpCo Franchisee under a Franchise Agreement, extend any credit to any OpCo Franchisee, (b) accept any collateral, security or guarantee for any Obligations or any other credit, (c) determine how, when and what application of payments, credits and collections, if any, shall be made on the Obligations and any other credit and accept partial payments, (d) determine what, if anything, shall at any time be done with respect to any collateral or security, (e) subordinate, sell, transfer, surrender, release or otherwise dispose of all or any of such collateral or security, and purchase or otherwise acquire any such collateral or security at foreclosure or otherwise, and (f) with or without consideration grant, permit or enter into any waiver, amendment, extension, modification, refinancing, indulgence, compromise, settlement, subordination, discharge or release of: (i) any of the Obligations and any agreement relating to any of the Obligations, (ii) any obligations of any guarantor or other person or entity liable for payment or performance of any of the Obligations, and any agreement relating to such obligations and (iii) any collateral or security or agreement relating to collateral or security for any of the foregoing, provided that, with respect to (c) and (d) relating to collateral or security, Franchisor must deal with any such collateral or security in a commercially reasonable manner. 3.4. Additional Waivers. OpCo hereby unconditionally waives (a) presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand for payment and all notices of any kind, including without limitation: notice of acceptance hereof, notice of the creation of any of the Obligations (except as otherwise expressly required in this Agreement), notice of nonpayment, nonperformance or other default on any of the Obligations, and notice of any action taken to collect upon or enforce any of the Obligations against any Franchise Owner (as defined in the preamble to the Franchise Agreement), (b) any claim for contribution against any co-guarantor, until the Obligations have been paid or performed in full and such payments are not subject to any right of recovery, and (c) any setoffs against Franchisor which would otherwise impair Franchisor's rights against OpCo hereunder. 5 3.5. Parties Benefitted. Subject to Section 16.1 below, the rights of Franchisor under this Article 3 shall inure to the benefit of Franchisor and its successors and assigns, including every holder or owner of any of the Obligations, and shall be binding upon OpCo and OpCo's successors and assigns. 3.6. Continuing Effect. This is a continuing guarantee and shall continue in effect as to those of the Obligations arising out of or relating to each OpCo Franchise Agreement until Franchisor shall have received written notice of termination of that OpCo Franchise Agreement (hereinafter, a "Terminated Agreement") in accordance with its terms; provided that this guarantee shall continue in effect thereafter with respect to all Obligations which arise out of or are related to all OpCo Franchise Agreements of which such notice shall not have been received, and with respect to all Obligations which were incurred under a Terminated Agreement prior to Franchisor's receipt of such notice of termination. 3.7. Scope of Guaranty. Nothing contained in this Article 3 shall cause the cumulative liability of OpCo and any OpCo Franchisee for any particular Obligation to exceed the amount of such Obligation; and the payment by OpCo, an OpCo Franchisee or another person (other than Franchisor) in full or partial satisfaction of any particular Obligation shall correspondingly reduce the liability of OpCo and the particular OpCo Franchisee for such Obligation, subject to subsection 3.2(c) above. 4. TERM 4.1. Initial Term. Unless sooner terminated pursuant to Article 16 hereof, this Agreement shall extend for an initial term (the "Initial Term") ending on the day prior to the anniversary date that is twelve (12) years from the date hereof, provided that if the date hereof is not the first day of a calendar month, then the Initial Term shall end on the last day of the calendar month in which occurs the date which would otherwise be the last day of the Initial Term. 4.2. Extended Term. Provided that OpCo shall be in compliance with the terms and conditions hereof, and this Agreement shall be in full force and effect, OpCo shall, subject to Section 4.4 below, have the right to extend the term of this Agreement, for each of four (4) consecutive five (5)-five year renewal terms (collectively, the "Extended Terms"). Each Extended Term shall commence on the day succeeding the expiration of the Initial Term or the preceding Extended Term, as the case may be. All of the terms, covenants and provisions of this Agreement shall apply to each such Extended Term, except that (x) the Annual Continuing Fee for each Extended Term shall be the Fair Market Value of the Franchise as determined for such Extended Term and shall be determined pursuant to Section 4.4 below and (y) OpCo shall have no right to extend the Term beyond the expiration of the Extended Terms. If OpCo shall elect to exercise any of the aforesaid options, it shall do so by giving Franchisor notice thereof not later than one (1) year prior to the scheduled expiration of the then current term 6 of this Agreement (Initial Term or Extended Term, as the case may be), it being understood and agreed that time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of such notice. OpCo may not exercise its option for more than one such Extended Term at a time. If OpCo shall fail to give any such notice, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the term then in effect and OpCo shall have no further option to extend the term of this Agreement. If OpCo shall give such notice, the extension of this Agreement shall be automatically effected without the execution of any additional documents; it being understood and agreed, however, that OpCo and Franchisor shall execute such documents and agreements as either party shall reasonably require to evidence the same. Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous sentence, if, subsequent to the giving of notice of its election to exercise its right to extend the term of this agreement OpCo shall cease to be in compliance with the terms and conditions hereof and such non-compliance shall be continuing, unless Franchisor shall otherwise consent in writing, the extension of this agreement shall automatically terminate at the end of the Initial Term or Extended Term then in effect, and OpCo shall have no further option to extend the term of this Agreement. 4.3. Determination of Annual Continuing Fee for Extended Terms. The Annual Continuing Fee for each Extended Term shall be determined by the mutual agreement of OpCo and Franchisor within thirty (30) days after Franchisor receives OpCo's notice exercising its option to extend with respect to such Extended Term, but in no event earlier than twelve (12) months prior to the commencement of the applicable Extended Term. In the event OpCo and Franchisor are unable to agree on the Annual Continuing Fee for such Extended Term within such period, such Annual Continuing Fee shall be determined pursuant to appraisal in accordance with Section 4.4 below. 4.4. Appraisal. In the event that it becomes necessary to determine the Fair Market Value of the Franchise and the parties cannot agree thereon, such Fair Market Value of the Franchise shall be determined upon the written demand of either party in accordance with the following procedure. The party requesting an appraisal, by notice given to the other, shall propose and unilaterally approve a Qualified Appraiser. The other party, by notice given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice appointing the first Qualified Appraiser, may appoint a second Qualified Appraiser. If the other party fails to appoint the second Qualified Appraiser within such fifteen (15)-day period, such party shall have waived its right to appoint a Qualified Appraiser, the first Qualified Appraiser shall appoint a second Qualified Appraiser within fifteen (15) days thereafter, and the Fair Market Value of the Franchise shall be determined by the Qualified Appraisers as set forth below. The two Qualified Appraisers shall thereupon endeavor to agree upon the Fair Market Value of the Franchise. If the two Qualified Appraisers so named cannot agree upon such value within thirty (30) days after the designation of the second such appraiser, each such appraiser shall, within five (5) days after the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period, submit his appraisal of the Fair Market Value of the Franchise to the other appraiser in writing, and if the fair market 7 values set forth in such appraisals vary by five percent (5%) or less of the greater value, the Fair Market Value of the Franchise shall be determined by calculating the average of the two fair market values determined by the two appraisers. If the fair market values set forth in the two appraisals vary by more than five percent (5%) of the greater value, the two Qualified Appraisers shall select a third Qualified Appraiser within an additional fifteen (15) days following the expiration of the aforesaid five (5)-day period. If the two appraisers are unable to agree upon the appointment of a third appraiser within such fifteen (15)-day period, either party may, upon written notice to the other, request that such appointment be made by any state court of competent jurisdiction for the State of Delaware. In the event that all three of the appraisers cannot agree upon the Fair Market Value of the Franchise within twenty (20) days following the selection of the third appraiser, each appraiser shall, within ten (10) days thereafter, submit his appraisal of the Fair Market Value of the Franchise to the other two appraisers in writing, and the Fair Market Value of the Franchise shall be determined by calculating the average of the two numerically closest values (or, if the values are equidistant, the average of all three values) determined by the three appraisers. In the event that any appraiser appointed hereunder does not or is unable to perform his or her obligation hereunder, then the party or the appraisers appointing such appraiser shall have the right to propose and approve unilaterally a substitute Qualified Appraiser, but if the party or the appraisers who have the right to appoint a substitute Qualified Appraiser fail to do so within ten (10) days after written notice from the other party (or either party in the event such appraiser was appointed by the other appraisers), either party may, upon written notice to the party having the right to appoint a substitute Qualified Appraiser, request that such appointment be made by such court of competent jurisdiction as described above; provided, however, that a party who has the right to appoint an appraiser or a substitute appraiser shall have the right to make such appointment only up until the time such appointment is made by such court. The parties agree that the Annual Continuing Fee for the Initial Term provided for in Section 5.1 shall not be evidence of the Fair Market Value of the Franchise for any Extended Term. In connection with the appraisal process, OpCo shall and shall cause OpCo Franchisees to provide the appraisers full access during normal business hours to examine the books, records, files and facilities of OpCo and all OpCo Franchisees. The costs of each such appraisal shall be borne equally by the parties. Upon determining such value, the appraisers shall promptly notify OpCo and Franchisor in writing of such determination. The determination of the Qualified Appraisers made in accordance with the foregoing provisions shall be final and binding upon the parties, such 8 determination may be entered as an award in arbitration in a court of competent jurisdiction, and judgment thereon may be entered. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Annual Continuing Fee for any Extended Term as determined by appraisal pursuant to this Section 4.4 is not satisfactory to Franchisor in Franchisor's sole discretion, or if Crescent elects to void OpCo's extension of the Facilities Lease with respect to such Extended Term pursuant to Article 19 of the Facilities Lease, then Franchisor shall have the right to render void OpCo's election to extend the term with respect to such Extended Term upon notice given to OpCo no later than thirty (30) days following the later of the determination of the Annual Continuing Fee pursuant to this Section 4.4, or Crescent's election to render void the extension of the Facilities Lease pursuant to the Facilities Lease, in which event this Agreement shall expire on the last day of the Initial Term or the then current Extended Term, as applicable. 4.5. New Annual Continuing Fee. The Fair Market Value of the Franchise, as agreed by the parties or as determined by the Qualified Appraisers shall be the Annual Continuing Fee provided for in Section 5.1 below, for the succeeding Extended Term. 5. ANNUAL CONTINUING FEES 5.1. Annual Continuing Fee. For each "Contract Year" (as hereinafter defined) during the Initial Term, OpCo shall pay to Franchisor, subject to the terms of Section 5.4 below, an annual continuing fee (the "Annual Continuing Fee") in the amount of the greater of: (a) Eighty-one Million Dollars ($81,000,000) plus an amount calculated by multiplying Eighty-one Million Dollars ($81,000,000) by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index, United States City Average for All Urban Consumers for All items (as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics) (the "CPI") between the end of the latest period for which said index has been published prior to the date of this Agreement and the end of the latest period for which said index has been published prior to the first day of said Contract Year (the "Minimum Annual Continuing Fee"), except that no adjustment to the Minimum Annual Continuing Fee shall be made for the second Contract Year (Contract Year beginning October 1, 1997); it being understood that the adjustment made for the third Contract Year (Contract Year beginning October 1, 1998) shall take into consideration the change in the CPI between the end of the latest period for which said index has been published prior to the date of this Agreement and the end of the latest period for which said index has been published prior to the first day of the third Contract Year; or (b) Eighty-one Million Dollars ($81,000,000) plus (i) 3% of OpCo Gross Revenues above One Billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000) and up to and including One Billion, Two Hundred Million Dollars ($1,200,000,000) during said Contract Year, and 9 (ii) 5% of OpCo Gross Revenues above One Billion, Two Hundred Million Dollars ($1,200,000,000) during said Contract Year. 5.2. Definition of "Contract Year". As used in this Article 5, the term "Contract Year" shall refer to any period which begins on the date of this Agreement or any succeeding October 1 and ends on the earlier of the following September 30 or the effective date of expiration or termination of this Agreement. 5.3. Monthly Installments. During each Contract Year, OpCo shall make monthly installments against the Annual Continuing Fee for said Contract Year. During the first and second Contract Years, each such monthly installment shall be equal to 1/12th of the Minimum Annual Continuing Fee for said Contract Year. During each subsequent Contract Year, each such monthly installment shall be equal to 1/12th of the greater of (a) the Minimum Annual Continuing Fee for said Contract Year or (b) the Annual Continuing Fee for the preceding Contract Year. The first monthly installment shall be paid on the date of this Agreement; and subsequent installments shall be paid on or before the first day of each subsequent calendar month during the Initial Term and each Extended Term of this Agreement. 5.4. Annual Continuing Fee for Short Contract Year. If the term of this Agreement includes any Contract Year of less than 365 days (i.e., because the date of this Agreement or the effective date of expiration or termination of this Agreement is in the middle of a Contract Year), the Annual Continuing Fee for such Contract Year shall be the greater of: (a) the product of the Minimum Annual Continuing Fee for said Contract Year times a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that this Agreement was in effect during said Contract Year (the "Effective Days") and the denominator of which is 365, or (b) the product of the amount calculated pursuant to subsection 5.1(b) above (provided, however, that for purposes of said calculation the "OpCo Gross Revenues" for said Contract Year shall be "OpCo Gross Revenues" as defined in Section 5.8 below for said Contract Year times a fraction the numerator of which is 365 and the denominator of which is the Effective Days), times a fraction the numerator of which is the Effective Days and the denominator of which is 365. 5.5. Credit for Payments by OpCo Franchisees. Amounts paid by OpCo Franchisees to Franchisor, if any, pursuant to Article 4 of the respective Franchise Agreements shall reduce dollar for dollar OpCo's obligation pursuant to Sections 5.1, 5.3 and 5.4 above. 5.6. Payment Following Contract Year End. If the aggregate dollar amount of payments delivered by OpCo to Franchisor in payment of the Annual Continuing Fee in respect of any Contract Year pursuant to Section 5.3 above is different than the Annual Continuing Fee for said 10 Contract Year, a payment in the amount of such overpayment or underpayment shall be made by the appropriate party within seventy-five (75) days after the end of said Contract Year. 5.7. Taxes. OpCo shall pay to Franchisor the amount of all sales taxes, use taxes, and similar taxes imposed upon or required to be collected on account of the Annual Continuing Fee and of goods or services furnished to OpCo and OpCo Franchisees by Franchisor, whether such goods or services are furnished by sale, lease or otherwise. 5.8. OpCo Gross Revenues. "OpCo Gross Revenues" shall mean the sum of: (a) the Gross Revenues (as defined in the Franchise Agreement) of all OpCo Franchisees. Plus, (b) unless otherwise agreed by Franchisor and OpCo pursuant to Article 10 for any Joint Venture or Managed Business (as defined below), the gross revenues ("Business Gross Revenues") of all the businesses which are the subject of Joint Ventures (the "Joint Venture Businesses") and the businesses which are the subject of management agreements and other agreements and arrangements of OpCo pursuant to which OpCo provides management, consulting or other services for so long as any such agreements or arrangements are in effect (the "Managed Businesses").

Business Gross Revenues shall not include amounts not actually collected (bad debts) to the extent that such have been included in Business Gross Revenues reported to Franchisor for prior periods. Plus, (c) the gross amounts of all OpCo's revenues from whatever source derived (whether in the form of cash, credit, agreements to pay, or other consideration, and whether or not payment is received at the time of the sale or provision of services), which arise from or are derived by OpCo, or any person affiliated with OpCo, directly or indirectly from 11 products or services sold or provided directly or indirectly by OpCo or from the sale of services or products associated with the use of the Licensed Marks, excluding any amounts received by OpCo from any OpCo Franchisee the Gross Revenues of which are included in OpCo Gross Revenues pursuant to (a) above, and excluding any amounts received by OpCo from Joint Venture Businesses and Managed Businesses, the Business Gross Revenues of which are included in OpCo Gross Revenues pursuant to (b) above. 5.9.

OpCo agrees that, in each year during the continuance of this Agreement, OpCo and OpCo Franchisees will expend such amount on advertising and marketing the Charter System and the OpCo Franchisees' businesses as is at least equal to the amount budgeted by OpCo in good faith pursuant to its then-current annual budget for such expenditures. If Franchisor determines that the amount so budgeted by OpCo in its approved annual budget for any year is significantly higher or lower than advisable, OpCo will establish a budget for such expenditures by Supermajority Vote of the Board. OpCo shall from time to time at the request of Franchisor upon reasonable prior notice provide to Franchisor reports of OpCo of such expenditures. 11.2. Approval of Advertising. All advertising by OpCo and OpCo Franchisees shall be in such media, and of such type and format as Franchisor may reasonably approve; shall be conducted in a dignified manner and shall conform to such standards and requirements as Franchisor may reasonably specify. Advertising approved by Franchisor as meeting the requirements of the preceding sentence shall continue to be deemed approved unless and until Franchisor shall notify OpCo otherwise. OpCo and OpCo Franchisees shall not use any advertising or promotional plans or materials not prepared by Franchisor unless and until OpCo and OpCo Franchisees have received written approval from Franchisor following the submission of samples thereof to Franchisor. If written approval is not received by OpCo and OpCo Franchisees from Franchisor or its designee within fifteen (15) days of the date of receipt by Franchisor of such samples, Franchisor shall be deemed to have disapproved such samples. 12. STATEMENTS, RECORDS AND FEE PAYMENTS 12.1. Maintenance of Records; Audit Rights. OpCo shall, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Franchisor, maintain original, full and complete records, accounts, books, data, licenses, contracts and invoices which shall accurately reflect all particulars relating to OpCo's Business and such statistical and other information or records as Franchisor may require and shall keep all such information for not less than three (3) years, even if this Agreement is no longer in effect. OpCo shall compile and provide to Franchisor any statistical or financial information regarding the operation of OpCo's Business, the services and products sold by it, or data of a similar nature as Franchisor may reasonably request. Franchisor and its designated agents shall have the right to examine and audit such records, accounts, books and data at all reasonable times to insure that OpCo is complying with the terms of this Agreement. In connection with any such examination or audit, Franchisor shall not be entitled to any adjustment to the extent that OpCo Gross Revenues have been computed in accordance with Section 5.8 and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied. If such inspection discloses, and it is ultimately determined, that the OpCo Gross Revenues during any scheduled reporting period actually exceeded the amount reported by OpCo as OpCo Gross Revenues by an amount equal to two percent (2%) or more of the OpCo Gross Revenues originally reported to Franchisor, OpCo shall bear the cost of such inspection and audit (not including any premium or contingent fee arrangement) and shall pay any such deficiency with interest from the date due, until paid, at the lesser of the highest rate 15 permitted by applicable law or the Prime Rate, plus six percent (6%) per annum, immediately upon the request of Franchisor. 12.2.

Unaudited Periodic Statements. OpCo shall prepare and deliver to Franchisor on a quarterly basis, no later than twenty-five (25) days following the close of each fiscal quarter of OpCo, an unaudited profit and loss statement in a form reasonably satisfactory to Franchisor covering OpCo's Business for the prior fiscal quarter and fiscal year to date and showing OpCo Gross Revenues for the prior fiscal quarter and fiscal year to date, all of which shall be certified by OpCo to present fairly in all material respects such matters. OpCo shall also submit to Franchisor no later than twenty-five (25) days following the close of each fiscal quarter of OpCo during the term of this Agreement, an unaudited balance sheet reflecting the financial position of the OpCo's Business as of the preceding fiscal quarter end. 12.5. Audited Annual Statement. In addition to the foregoing unaudited statements, within 75 days after the close of each fiscal year of OpCo, OpCo shall furnish to Franchisor, at OpCo's expense, an audited statement of income and retained earnings of OpCo's Business for such fiscal year and an audited balance sheet of OpCo's Business as of the end of such fiscal year, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and certified to by a certified public accountant. Such financial statements shall be accompanied by a certificate of such certified public accountant certifying OpCo Gross Revenues for the prior year. 13. ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF OPCO 13.1. Covenant During Term. During the Term of this Agreement, OpCo covenants not to engage directly or indirectly as an owner, operator, in any managerial capacity, or otherwise in any business (i) other than as a franchisee of the Charter System pursuant to a Franchise Agreement; (ii) other than pursuant to an agreement with Franchisor with regard to one or more New Products; (iii) other than pursuant to New Arrangements; (iv) other than OpCo's business of the management and administration of the businesses franchised by Franchisor pursuant to Article 2 hereof or pursuant to the Joint Ventures, or businesses conducted by OpCo Franchisees with regard to one or more New Products. 16 13.2. Covenant Not to Compete Post-Term. Following the termination or expiration of this Agreement and for a period expiring on the earlier of three (3) years following the expiration or termination of this Agreement or the thirty-second anniversary of the date of this Agreement, OpCo covenants not directly or indirectly to engage as an owner, operator, or in any managerial capacity (i) in any Hospital/RTC Based Behavioral Healthcare Business, or (ii) in any business with respect to a New Product, other than pursuant to a written agreement with Franchisor; provided, however, that OpCo shall not be prohibited hereby from owning equity securities of any such businesses whose shares are traded on a stock exchange or on the over-the-counter market so long as the ownership interest represents five percent (5%) or less of the total number of outstanding shares of such business. The geographic area of the restrictions provided for in this Section 13.2 shall be limited to (i) the Territories of the OpCo Franchisees at the date of the termination or expiration of this Agreement and during the two years prior thereto, which Territories shall, from time to time, be included in Exhibit 3 hereto; (ii) the geographic areas within a ten (10) mile radius of any Joint Venture Business and Managed Business in existence at the date of the expiration or termination of this Agreement, which shall from time to time be included as a part of Exhibit 3 hereto, and (iii) and the geographic areas within a ten (10) mile radius of any place of business of OpCo at the date of the expiration or termination of this Agreement. 13.3. Acknowledgment of Reasonableness. The parties hereto acknowledge that the provisions of Sections 13.1 and 13.2 have been negotiated fully and fairly by the parties, each being represented and advised by counsel. OpCo acknowledges that it is willingly and freely agreeing to the provisions of Section 13.1 and 13.2 as reasonable and necessary under the circumstances. One of the acknowledged reasonable business purposes of Franchisor is to protect Franchisor's goodwill and proprietary rights. OpCo further acknowledges that Franchisor would not enter into this Agreement without the covenants of Sections 13.1 and 13.2 and that it is fair and reasonable to OpCo that OpCo be subject to such covenants. 13.4. Confidential Information. During the Term of this Agreement and following the expiration or termination of the Agreement, OpCo covenants not to communicate directly or indirectly, nor to divulge to or use for its benefit or the benefit of any other person or legal entity, any trade secrets which are proprietary to Franchisor or any information, knowledge or know-how deemed confidential by Franchisor pursuant to Section 10.4 of the Franchise Agreement, except as permitted by Franchisor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this obligation shall not apply to information: (a) which at the time of disclosure is readily available to the trade or public; (b) which after disclosure becomes readily available to the trade or public, other than through breach of this Agreement; (c) which is subsequently lawfully and in good faith obtained by such party from an independent third party without breach of this Agreement; (d) which was in possession of such party prior to the date of disclosure; or (e) which is disclosed to others in accordance with the terms of a prior written authorization between the parties to this Agreement. In the event of any termination, expiration or non-renewal of this Agreement, OpCo agrees that it will never use Franchisor's confidential information, trade secrets, methods of operation or any proprietary components of the Charter System in the design, development or operation of any behavioral healthcare business, including, without limitation, any Hospital/RTC Based Behavioral Healthcare Business. The 17 protection granted hereunder shall be in addition to and not in lieu of all other protections for such trade secrets and confidential information as may otherwise be afforded in law or in equity. 13.5. Confidential Agreements with Certain Employees. Consistent with Franchisor's existing policies with respect to employee non-disclosure agreements, OpCo agrees to maintain and cause new employees of OpCo to execute employee non-disclosure agreements, in the form employed by Franchisor as of the date hereof (or such other form as reasonably requested by Franchisor), which shall prohibit disclosure by such parties to any other person or legal entity of any trade secrets or any other information, knowledge or know-how deemed confidential by Franchisor concerning the operation of the Charter System. Franchisor shall be a third party beneficiary of such agreements and OpCo shall not amend, modify or terminate any such agreement without Franchisor's prior written consent. 13.6. Severability. The parties agree that each of the foregoing covenants shall be construed as independent of any other covenant or provision of this Agreement. Should any part of one or more of these restrictions be found to be unenforceable by virtue of its scope in terms of area, business activity prohibited or length of time, and should such part be capable of being made enforceable by reduction of any or all thereof, OpCo and Franchisor agree that the same shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the law. In addition, Franchisor may, unilaterally, at any time, in its sole discretion, revise any of the covenants in this Section 13 so as to reduce the obligations of OpCo hereunder. The running of any period of time specified in this Section 13 shall be tolled and suspended for any period of time in which OpCo is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been in violation of any restrictive covenant. OpCo further expressly agrees that the existence of any claim it may have against Franchisor whether or not arising from this Agreement, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Franchisor of the covenants in this Article 13. 14. FRANCHISOR COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE Franchisor agrees that OpCo shall be a third-party beneficiary of the covenants set forth in Section 1 of each of the OpCo Franchise Agreements as and to the extent such restrict Franchisor from engaging in certain businesses and as such shall have full rights to enforce such covenants. 15. NEGATIVE COVENANTS OF OPCO In the event that pursuant to Section 15 of the Operating Agreement Franchisor sells its entire Interest in OpCo, from and after the close of the sale of Franchisor's entire Interest (a "Buy/Sell Event"), OpCo shall not do any of the following, without the prior written consent of Franchisor: 15.1.

Printed Materials; Marketing. Franchise Owner shall use only business stationery, business cards, marketing materials, advertising materials, printed materials or forms which have 10 been approved in advance by Franchisor.

Variation of Standards. Because complete and detailed uniformity under many varying conditions may not be possible or practical, Franchisor specifically reserves the right and privilege, in its sole discretion and as it may deem in the best interests of all concerned in any specific instance, to vary standards for any of its franchisees based upon the peculiarities of a particular circumstance, or any other conditions which Franchisor deems to be of importance to the successful operation of the Franchised Business.

Franchise Owner hereby grants to Franchisor all right, title and interest to such discoveries and ideas, and agrees to cooperate with Franchisor in securing Franchisor's rights to such discoveries and ideas. "Discoveries" and "ideas" shall be interpreted broadly and shall not be limited to those discoveries or ideas which are potentially patentable or 11 copyrightable. Franchisor shall not be obligated to compensate Franchise Owner for any such discoveries or ideas and Franchise Owner has no expectation of any such compensation. 7. CONFIDENTIAL OPERATING MANUAL 7.1. Compliance with Confidential Operating Manual. In order to protect the reputation and goodwill of the businesses operating under the Charter System and to maintain standards of operation under the Licensed Marks, Franchise Owner shall conduct the Franchised Business operated under the Charter System in accordance with various written instructions and confidential manuals (hereinafter and previously referred to as the "Confidential Operating Manual"), including such amendments thereto as Franchisor may publish from time to time, all of which Franchise Owner acknowledges belong solely to Franchisor and shall be on loan from Franchisor during the term of this Agreement. When any provision in this Agreement requires that Franchise Owner comply with any standard, specification or requirement of Franchisor, unless otherwise indicated such standard, specification or requirement shall be such as is set forth in this Agreement or as may, from time to time, be set forth by Franchisor in the Confidential Operating Manual. 7.2. Confidentiality. Franchise Owner shall at all times use its best efforts to keep the Confidential Operating Manual and any other manuals, materials, goods and information created or used by Franchisor and designated for confidential use, within the Charter System and the information contained therein as confidential and shall limit access to employees of Franchise Owner on a need-to-know basis. Franchise Owner acknowledges that the unauthorized use or disclosure of Franchisor's confidential information or trade secrets will cause irreparable injury to Franchisor and that damages are not an adequate remedy. Franchise Owner accordingly covenants that it shall not at any time, without Franchisor's prior written consent, disclose, use, permit the use thereof (except as may be required by applicable law or authorized by this Agreement), copy, duplicate, record, transfer, transmit or otherwise reproduce such information, in any form or by any means, in whole or in part, or otherwise make the same available to any unauthorized person or source. Any and all information, knowledge and know-how not known about the Charter System and Franchisor's products, services, standards, procedures, techniques and such other information or material as Franchisor may designate as confidential shall be deemed confidential for purposes of this Agreement. 7.3. Revisions. Franchise Owner understands and acknowledges that Franchisor may, from time to time, revise the contents of the Confidential Operating Manual to implement new or different requirements for the operation of the Franchised Business, and Franchise Owner expressly agrees to comply at its expense with all such changed requirements which are by their terms mandatory; provided that such requirements shall also be applied in a reasonably nondiscriminatory manner to comparable businesses operated under the Charter System by other of Franchisor's franchisees. 12 7.4. Current Copy. Franchise Owner shall at all times insure that its copy of the Confidential Operating Manual is kept current and up to date. In the event of any dispute as to the contents thereof, the terms and dates of the master copy thereof maintained by Franchisor at its principal place of business shall be controlling. 8. ADVERTISING AND MARKETING Recognizing the value of standardized advertising and marketing programs to the furtherance of the goodwill and public image of the Charter System, the parties agree as follows: 8.1. Local Advertising. At its expense, Franchise Owner agrees to conduct on an annual basis continuing local advertising in form, content and media approved by Franchisor, in an amount equal to three percent (3%) of Gross Revenues.

Approval of Advertising. All advertising by Franchise Owner shall be in such media, and of such type and format as Franchisor may approve; shall be conducted in a dignified manner and shall conform to such standards and requirements as Franchisor may specify. Advertising approved by Franchisor as meeting the requirements of the preceding sentence shall continue to be deemed approved unless and until Franchisor shall notify OpCo otherwise. Franchise Owner shall not use any advertising or promotional plans or materials not prepared by Franchisor unless and until Franchise Owner has received written approval from Franchisor following the submission of samples thereof to Franchisor. If written approval is not received by Franchise Owner from Franchisor or its designee within fifteen (15) days of the date of receipt by Franchisor of such samples, Franchisor shall be deemed to have disapproved such advertising or promotional plans or materials. 8.3. Participation in Cooperative Advertising and/or Marketing Programs. Franchise Owner shall participate in all cooperative advertising and/or marketing programs as are from time to time prescribed by Franchisor, provided however, that no such cooperative advertising and/or marketing programs shall require Franchise Owner to adhere to any specific price(s). The terms and conditions required for participation in any such cooperative advertising program or programs shall be as specified in the Confidential Operations Manual. 8.4. Operation of Call Center. Franchisor agrees to operate or will provide a toll free "800 telephone number" and related call center (the "800 Call Center") to provide substantially the same services to Franchise Owner as those provided by the 800 Call Center operating immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement, subject to such modification as Franchisor deems advisable from time to time to comply with applicable law or subject to such restructuring 13 as Franchisor shall reasonably require to comply with applicable law. Franchise Owner agrees to advertise the "800 telephone number" and otherwise cooperate with Franchisor to use the 800 Call Center as a means of assisting customers to locate the places of business of franchisees of Franchisor. 9. STATEMENTS, RECORDS AND FEE PAYMENTS 9.1. Maintenance of Records; Audit Rights. Franchise Owner shall, in a manner satisfactory to Franchisor, maintain original, full and complete records, accounts, books, data, licenses, contracts and invoices which shall accurately reflect all particulars relating to Franchised Business and such statistical and other information or records as Franchisor may require, and shall keep all such information for not less than three (3) years, even if this Agreement is no longer in effect. Franchise Owner shall compile and provide to Franchisor any statistical or financial information regarding the operation of the Franchised Business, the services and products sold by it, or data of a similar nature as Franchisor may reasonably request. Franchisor and its designated agents shall have the right to examine and audit such records, accounts, books and data at all reasonable times to insure that Franchise Owner is complying with the terms of this Agreement. If such inspection discloses and it is ultimately determined that the Gross Revenues during any scheduled reporting period actually exceeded the amount reported by Franchise Owner as its Gross Revenues by an amount equal to two percent (2%) or more of the Gross Revenues originally reported to Franchisor, Franchise Owner shall bear the cost of such inspection and audit (not including any premium or contingent fee arrangement) and shall pay any such deficiency with interest from the date due until paid at the lesser of the Prime Rate, plus six percent (6%) per annum or the highest rate permitted by applicable law, immediately upon the request of Franchisor. 9.2. Reports. Upon Franchisor's request, Franchise Owner shall furnish Franchisor with a copy of each of Franchise Owner's reports required under applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations, including but not limited to all such reports required under "Medicare" and "Medicaid" laws, rules and regulations. 9.3.

Covenant Not to Compete Post-Term. Following the termination or expiration of this Agreement and for a period expiring on the earlier of three (3) years following the expiration or termination of this Agreement, Franchise Owner covenants not to engage in the Territory as an owner, operator, or in any managerial capacity in any Hospital/RTC Based Behavioral Healthcare Business, other than as a franchisee of the Charter System pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that Franchise Owner shall not be prohibited hereby from owning equity securities of any Hospital/RTC Based Behavioral Healthcare Business whose shares are traded on a stock exchange or on the over-the-counter market so long as said ownership interest represents five percent (5%) or less of the total number of outstanding shares of such business. 10.3.

Franchise Owner acknowledges that it is willingly and freely agreeing to the provisions of Sections 10.1 and 10.2 as reasonable and necessary under the circumstances. One of the acknowledged reasonable business purposes of Franchisor is to protect Franchisor's goodwill and proprietary rights. Franchise Owner further acknowledges that Franchisor would not enter into this Agreement without the covenants of Sections 10.1 and 10.2 and that it is fair and reasonable to Franchise Owner that Franchise Owner be subject to such covenants. 10.4. Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement and following the expiration or termination of this Agreement, Franchise Owner covenants not to communicate 15 directly or indirectly, nor to divulge to or use for its benefit or the benefit of any other person or legal entity, any trade secrets which are proprietary to Franchisor or any information, knowledge or know-how identified to Franchise Owner by Franchisor in writing as confidential (including but not limited to the Confidential Operating Manual), except as permitted by Franchisor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this obligation shall not apply to information: (a) which at the time of disclosure is readily available to the trade or public; (b) which after disclosure becomes readily available to the trade or public, other than through breach of this Agreement; (c) which is subsequently lawfully and in good faith obtained by such party from an independent third party without breach of this Agreement; (d) which was in possession of such party prior to the date of disclosure; or (e) which is disclosed to others in accordance with the terms of a prior written authorization between the parties to this Agreement.

The protection granted hereunder shall be in addition to and not in lieu of all other protections for such trade secrets and confidential information as may otherwise be afforded in law or in equity. 10.5. Confidential Agreements with Certain Employees. Franchise Owner agrees to require each of its management employees to execute employee non-disclosure agreements in a form approved by Franchisor which shall prohibit disclosure by such parties to any other person or legal entity of any trade secrets or any other information, knowledge or know-how identified as confidential by Franchisor in writing to Franchise Owner concerning the operation of the Franchised Business. Franchisor shall be a third party beneficiary of such agreements and Franchise Owner shall not amend, modify or terminate any such agreement without Franchisor's prior written consent. 10.6. Severability. The parties agree that each of the foregoing covenants shall be construed as independent of any other covenant or provision of this Agreement.

In addition, Franchisor may, unilaterally, at any time, in its sole discretion, revise any of the covenants in this Article 10 so as to reduce the obligations of Franchise Owner hereunder. The running of any period of time specified in this Article 10 shall be tolled and suspended for any period of time in which the Franchise Owner is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been in violation of any restrictive covenant. Franchise Owner further expressly agrees that the existence of any claim it may have against Franchisor whether or not arising from this Agreement, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Franchisor of the covenants in this Article 10. 11. TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT 16 11.1. Assignment by Franchisor. This Agreement and all rights and duties hereunder may be freely assigned or transferred by Franchisor in its sole discretion to any person or legal entity which agrees to assume Franchisor's obligations hereunder, including a competitor of Franchisor, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Franchisor's successors and assigns including, without limitation, any entity which acquires all or a portion of the capital stock of Franchisor or any entity resulting from or participating in a merger, consolidation or reorganization in which Franchisor is involved, and to which Franchisor's rights and duties hereunder are assigned or transferred. 11.2.

Magellan acknowledges receipt of a true and complete copy of the Lease. Unless and until all Rent (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent) shall have been fully paid and the Term shall have expired, Magellan will not, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, take or receive, or retain, from OpCo, any OpCo Sub, or any other person or entity, by setoff or in any other -4- manner, payment of all or any part of the Franchise Fees, or accept any security therefor, and neither OpCo nor any OpCo Sub shall make, give or permit, directly or indirectly, any such payment, and Magellan shall not demand or sue for any such payment to the extent prohibited in Section 2.3.

However, so long as no "Default" or "Event of Default" under the Lease has occurred and is continuing with respect to the payment of Rent (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent), and so long as none of OpCo or any OpCo Sub is the subject of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws, Magellan may pursue any default remedy available under the Fran chise Agreement or at law or in equity or otherwise, except as provided above in this Section 2.3. (b) Each of Crescent and Magellan covenants to the other that it shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to provide in a timely fashion written notice of the commencement and progress of any remedial action undertaken against OpCo or any OpCo Sub, includ ing providing to such party copies of any and all correspondence to OpCo or any OpCo Sub from such party with respect to any of such party's rights or remedies and any plead ings or similar material; provided, however, that failure to provide any such written notice or any such copies shall not affect the validity of any action undertaken or render either Crescent or Magellan liable to the other or to any other person or entity. 2.4 In Furtherance of Subordination.

In the event of any failure by Magellan to make any such endorsement or assignment, Crescent is hereby irrevocably authorized to make the same. (c) Magellan shall file in a timely manner a claim or claims, in the form required in any proceeding described in subsection (a) above, for the full outstanding amount of the Franchise Fees and shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause said claim or claims to be approved and all payments and other distributions in respect thereof to be made directly to Crescent until all Rent (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent) pay able under the Lease has been paid in full. Magellan irrevocably authorizes and empow ers Crescent, in connection with any proceeding or distribution described in subsection (a) above, in the name of Magellan or otherwise, to demand, sue for, collect and receive and receipt for any and all such payments or distributions, and file, prove, and vote or consent in any such proceedings with respect to any and all claims of Magellan relating to the Franchise Fees if Magellan shall not have duly filed such claim or proof of claim at least ten (10) days prior to the last day on which such claim or proof of claim may be filed. Magellan agrees that (i) without the prior written consent of Crescent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, it will not vote such claim in favor of any plan of reorganization or similar structure (a "Plan") under which the terms of the Lease are changed in any way, and (ii) it will not vote against any Plan if Crescent votes in favor of the same unless, under such Plan, the Franchise Fees, or any portion thereof, would not be subordinate in right of payment to distributions to Crescent on account of the Rent (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent).

(d) Crescent shall be entitled to enforce specific performance of this Agreement at any time when Magellan shall have failed to comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement -7- applicable to it.

(e) Nothing provided in this Agreement is intended to relieve OpCo of its obligation to pay Franchise Fees due under the Franchise Agreement. 2.5 Application of Payments Received. All payments and distributions received by Crescent in respect of the Franchise Fees, to the extent received in or converted into cash, may be applied by Crescent first to the payment of any and all expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses) paid or incurred by Crescent in enforcing this Agree ment or in endeavoring to collect or realize upon any of the Franchise Fees or any secu rity therefor, and any balance shall, solely as between Magellan and Crescent, be applied by Crescent, in such order of application as Crescent may from time to time select, toward the payment of Rent (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent) remaining unpaid, but as between OpCo or any OpCo Sub and its creditors, no such payments or distribu tions of any kind or character shall be deemed to be payments or distributions in respect of Rent.

THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES. 3.10 Amendment of Franchise Agreement. Magellan agrees that, unless and until all Rent (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent) shall have been irrevocably paid in full (sub ject, however, to the terms of Section 3.4 above) and the Term shall have expired, with out Crescent's prior written consent the Franchise Agreement shall not be amended, modified, or supplemented by any of the parties thereto in any manner that would in crease or accelerate payment of the Franchise Fees or any installment thereof, except for an increase in the Franchise Fees in connection with the addition of a new Leased Prop erty to the facilities covered by the Franchise Agreement or in connection with the imple mentation of New Products (as defined in the Franchise Agreement). If the Franchise Agreement is amended without Crescent's prior written consent in a manner that violates the provisions of this Section 3.10, then the increased or accelerated portion of the Fran chise Fees shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment and liquidation to the prior irrevocable payment in full of all Rent, Additional Rent (including all Non-Priority Additional Rent), and all Additional Charges. 3.11 No Subrogation Until Payment in Full. Without Crescent's prior written consent, Magel lan shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of Crescent against OpCo, any OpCo Sub, or any other person or entity, or any liens, security interests or assign ments now or hereafter securing the Lease, until all of the Rent (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent) shall have been irrevocably paid in full (subject, however, to the terms of Section 3.4 above) and the Term shall have expired. 3.12 Amendment of Lease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Crescent shall not, without prior notice to and written consent of Magellan, amend or modify the Lease in any manner that would increase the amount or accelerate the payment of Rent or any installment thereof (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent and other than an increase in Rent in connection with the addition of new Leased Properties to the Collective Leased Properties) or that would extend the Term beyond the fourth Extended Term. In the event that Crescent, OpCo and the OpCo Subs amend the Lease to increase the amount or accelerate the payment of the Rent or any installment thereof (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent and other than -11- an increase in Rent in connection with the addition of new Leased Properties to the Collective Leased Properties) payable thereunder, or to extend the Term beyond the fourth Extended Term, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the Franchise Fees shall continue to be subject, subordinate and junior in right of payment and liquidation to the prior irrevocable payment of the Rent (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent) to the extent and in the manner set forth herein as though the Rent payable under the Lease had not been so increased or the Term so extended beyond the fourth Extended Term; provided, however, that in the event that Crescent, OpCo and the OpCo Subs, without the prior written consent of Magellan, so amend the Lease to in crease the amount or accelerate the payment of Minimum Rent or Additional Rent (other than Non-Priority Additional Rent), then the portion of the Rent constituting such in crease or the portion of the Rent or any installment thereof so accelerated, as applicable, shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment and liquidation to the prior irrevocable payment of the Franchise Fees to the extent and in the manner that the Franchise Fees are subordinated pursuant to this Agreement. 3.13 Further Assurances. Each of Magellan and OpCo will, at its expense and at any time and from time to time, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents (including without limitation assignments and proofs of claim), and promptly take all further action (including, without limitation, filing proofs of claim and taking other actions to collect the Franchise Fees), or cause such instruments and documents to be executed and delivered and such actions to be taken, that may be necessary or desirable, or that Crescent may reasonably request, in order to protect any right or interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable Crescent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder. For purposes of this Section 3.13, "promptly" shall be deemed to mean within five (5) Business Days after written request therefor unless in the judg ment of Crescent, exercised in good faith, faster action is required to achieve the intended purpose. 3.14 Representations and Warranties.

Magel lan agrees to pay, upon demand, to Crescent the amount of any and all losses, costs and expenses, including the fees and expenses of Crescent's counsel, which Crescent may incur as a result of any breach by Magellan of its obligations hereunder or in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any of Crescent's rights or interests hereunder, which exercise or enforcement results directly or indirectly from, or arises by reason of, any action or any failure to take any action required of Magellan hereunder. Crescent shall not have any obligation to make demand of, or take any action against, OpCo under this Section 3.15 prior to making demand of, or taking action against, Magellan pursuant to this Section 3.15. 3.16 Arbitration in Some Events. Disputes between Magellan and Crescent relating to amounts owing to Magellan or Crescent under the Franchise Agreement or the Lease, as such agreements are affected by this Agreement, will be subject to resolution by binding arbitration in Delaware before the American Arbitration Association and governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect. Nothing set forth in this Section 3.16, however, shall impair or restrict in any way either party's right to seek equitable relief in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement. 3.17 Consent to Assumption of Franchise Agreement. Magellan hereby consents to the assumption by Crescent or Crescent's designee of the Franchise Agreement and all rights and obligations of the franchisee thereunder from the date of such assumption in the event of an Event of Default by OpCo under the Lease and exercise by Crescent of its election, in its sole and absolute discretion, under the remedies provisions of the Lease to assume or have its designee assume all of the revenue producing contracts relating to the Collec tive Leased Properties. -13- IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date first set forth above.

In the event some but not all of the Members would have Adjusted Capital Account Deficits as a consequence of an allocation of Losses pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof, the limitation set forth in this Section 6.5 shall be applied on a Member by Member basis and Losses not allocable to any Member as a result of such limitation shall be allocated to the other Members in accordance with the positive balances in such Members' Capital Accounts so as to allocate the maximum permissible Losses to each Member under Section 1.704- 1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations. 6.6 Other Allocation Rules. (a) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses, or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses, and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly, or other basis, as determined by the Governing Board, using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations thereunder. (b) The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Section 6 and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 6 in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes. (c) For purposes of making all allocations pursuant to this Section 6 for any Allocation Year, cash distributed within thirty (30) days after the last day of such Allocation Year shall be treated as having been distributed on such last day pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof. 23 (d) Solely for purposes of determining a Member's proportionate share of the "excess nonrecourse liabilities" of the Company within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Members' interests in Company profits shall be in proportion to their Percentage Interests. (e) To the extent permitted by Section 1.704-2(h)(3) of the Regulations, the Governing Board shall endeavor to treat distributions of cash as having been made from the proceeds of a Nonrecourse Liability or a Member Nonrecourse Debt only to the extent that such distributions would cause or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for any Member. 6.7 Tax Allocations: Code Section 704(c). In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any Property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such Property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value (computed in accordance with the definition of Gross Asset Value). Any such variation with respect to the Contributed Assets (as defined in the OpCo Contribution Agreement) shall be calculated using the remedial allocation method described in Regulation Section 1.704-3(d). In the event the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (b) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by a supermajority (of at least 80%) of the Governing Board in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 6.7 are solely for purposes of federal, state, and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member's Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. SECTION 7. DISTRIBUTIONS 7.1 Distribution of Available Cash. Subject to the provisions of this Section 7, the Company's available cash shall be distributed to the Members, in such amounts and only at such times as determined by the Governing Board, in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests. In no event shall any cash distribution be made to the Members unless and until rent due under the Facilities Lease and fees due under the Franchise Agreement are fully paid in the year of any distribution. 24 7.2 Amounts Withheld. Each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold from or pay on behalf of or with respect to such Member any amount of federal, state, local, or foreign taxes that the Governing Board determines that the Company is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable or allocable to such Member pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any taxes required to be withheld or paid by the Company pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445, or 1446 of the Code. Any amount paid on behalf of or with respect to a Member shall constitute a loan by the Company to such Member, which loan shall be repaid by such Member within fifteen (15) days after notice from the Governing Board that such payment must be made unless (i) the Company withholds such payment from a distribution which would otherwise be made to the Member, or (ii) the Governing Board determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such payment may be satisfied out of the available funds of the Company which would, but for such payment, be distributed to the Member. Any amounts withheld pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) shall be treated as having been distributed to such Member. Each Member hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Company a security interest (which shall be subordinate to any pledge granted to a financial institution as contemplated by Section 12.2) in such Member's Percentage Interest to secure such Member's obligation to pay to the Company any amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 7.2. In the event that a Member fails to pay any amounts owed to the Company pursuant to this Section 7.2 when due, the Governing Board may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to make the payment to the Company on behalf of such defaulting Member and, until repayment of such loan, shall succeed to all rights and remedies of the Company against such defaulting Member (including, without limitation, the right to receive distributions). Any amounts payable by a Member hereunder shall bear interest at the base rate on corporate loans at large United States money center commercial banks, as published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal, plus four percentage points (but not higher than the maximum lawful rate) from the date such 25 amount is due (i.e., fifteen (15) days after demand) until such amount is paid in full. Each Member shall take such actions as the Company or the Governing Board shall request in order to perfect or enforce the security interest created hereunder. SECTION 8.

With respect to any Director other than the initial Directors set forth in Section 8.1(c) hereof, Magellan or New Crescent, as the case may be, shall 26 designate such Director by delivering to the Company the Member's written statement designating such Director and setting forth such Director's business address and telephone number. (e) A Director may be removed at any time, with or without cause, solely by the Member originally designating such Director.

(f) In the event any Director dies or is unwilling or unable to serve as such or is removed from office by the Member that designated such Director, the appropriate Member shall promptly designate a successor to such Director. A Director chosen to fill a vacancy shall be designated by the Member whose previously designated Director shall have been removed or shall have resigned. (g) Each Director shall have one (1) vote. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 8.2 and 8.3 hereof, the Governing Board shall act by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of Directors on the Governing Board.

Every proxy must be signed by the Director or its attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of eleven (11) months from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy. Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the Director executing it. (h) The Governing Board shall have the power to delegate authority to such committees of Directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives of the Company as it may from time to time deem appropriate. Any delegation of authority to take any action must be approved in the same manner as would be required for the Governing Board to approve such action directly.

Upon approval by the Governing Board, the proposed Annual Budget shall become the Annual Budget for the next succeeding Fiscal Year. 30 (c) If the Governing Board is unable to agree on the Annual Budget, then until such time as the Governing Board is able to adopt and approve an Annual Budget, the Annual Budget shall consist of the items in the proposed Annual Budget which are not in dispute and, with respect to those items in dispute, the items and amounts in the prior year's Annual Budget shall be deemed to constitute the approved amounts in the Annual Budget, as the case may be; provided, however, that the amount budgeted for acquisitions or financing for the then-current Fiscal Year shall be the amount that the parties are able to agree upon or, if they are unable to agree, then these amounts shall be zero for the then-current Fiscal Year unless necessary for ongoing operations. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent that an expenditure is required to be made pursuant to a legally binding obligation of the Company which has been previously approved by the Governing Board or the Members (or not required to be approved pursuant to this Agreement) or to the extent that any such expenditure is beyond the Company's control, such as utility costs, taxes and insurance premiums, then the approved Annual Budget for the current fiscal year shall be deemed to include such expenditure.

No actions other than those specified in the notice may be considered at any special meeting unless unanimously approved by the Directors.

Participation in such a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

The approval of Members owning eighty percent (80%) or more of the Percentage Interests in the Company is required to act on any matter submitted to a vote of the Members. 9.3 Meetings of the Members. (a) Meetings of the Members may be called upon the written request of any Member. Such notice of meeting shall state the location of the meeting and the nature of the business to be transacted. Notice of any such meeting shall be given to all Members not less than seven (7) Business Days nor more than thirty (30) days prior to the date of such meeting. Members may vote in person, by proxy or by telephone at such meeting and may waive advance notice of such meeting. Members which own in the aggregate eighty percent (80%) or more of the Percentage Interests in the Company constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting of the Members. Whenever the vote or consent of Members is permitted or required under the Agreement, such vote or consent may be given at a meeting of the Members or may be given in accordance with the procedure prescribed in this Section 9.3. (b) Each Member may authorize any Person or Persons to act for it by proxy on all matters in which a Member is entitled to participate, including waiving notice of any meeting, or voting or participating at a meeting. Every proxy must be signed by the Member or its attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of eleven (11) months from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy. Every proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the Member executing it. (c) Notwithstanding this Section 9.3, the Company may take any action contemplated under this Agreement as approved by the consent of the Members, such consent to be provided in writing, or by telephone or facsimile, if such telephone conversation or facsimile is followed by a written summary of the telephone conversation or facsimile communication sent by registered or certified mail, postage and charges prepaid, addressed as described in Section 16.2 hereof, or to such other address as such Person may from time to time specify by notice to the Members and Directors. 9.4 Required Member Consents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Operating Agreement, no action may be taken by the Company (whether by the Governing Board or otherwise) in connection with the following matters without the approval of Members owning at least 80% of the outstanding Percentage Interest: (a) Cause or permit the Company to engage in any activity that is not consistent with the purposes of the Company as set forth in Section 2.3 hereof; (b) Knowingly do any act in contravention of this Agreement; 38 (c) Cause the Company to reorganize, recapitalize, merge or consolidate with another Person; (d) Elect to dissolve or liquidate the Corporation; (e) Cause the Company to take any action that would cause a Bankruptcy of theCompany; (f) Possess Company assets, or assign rights in any Company assets, for other than a Company purpose; (g) Confess a judgment against the Company; (h) Change the Percentage Interest of any Member without the consent of the affected Member; or (i) Amend this Agreement. 9.5 Tax Elections. The Governing Board by supermajority (at least 80%) vote (except as provided below) shall, without any further consent of the Members being required (except as specifically required herein), make any and all elections for United States federal, state, local, and foreign tax purposes including, without limitation, any election, if permitted by applicable law: (i) to adjust the basis of Property pursuant to Code Sections 754, 734(b) and 743(b), or comparable provisions of state, local or foreign law, in connection with Transfers of Interests and Company distributions and (ii) with the consent of all of the Members, to extend the statute of limitations for assessment of tax deficiencies against the Members with respect to adjustments to the Company's United States federal, state, local or foreign tax returns. Magellan is specifically authorized to act as the "Tax Matters Member" under Section 6231 of the Code and in any similar capacity under state or local law; provided, however, that the Tax Matters Member shall not, without the consent of the Members holding at least 80% of the Percentage Interests, file a request for administrative review of any Partnership item (as defined in Section 6231 of the Code) which may be expected to result in the material assessment of tax against a Member, initiate judicial review of any adjustment with respect to any Partnership item, or enter into any agreement with the Internal Revenue Service (or any state and local taxing authority) that would result in any material change in any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit or Profits or Losses as previously reported or in the allocation of such items of Profits or Losses. The Tax Matters Member shall be responsible for preparing and filing, or causing to be prepared and filed, all federal, state, and local tax returns and shall submit all federal, state, and local income tax returns and any other material federal, state, and local tax returns to the Governing Board for review and supermajority (at least 80%) approval at least fifteen days prior to the filing of such returns. The Company shall reimburse 39 the Tax Matters Member for all direct expenses incurred by the Tax Matters Member in fulfilling its duties hereunder. 9.6 Members' Liability. No Member shall be liable under a judgment, decree or order of a court, or in any other manner for the Debts or any other obligations or liabilities of the Company solely by reason of being a Member of the Company. A Member shall be liable only to make the Capital Contributions described in Section 3, on the terms therein described, and shall not be required to lend any funds to the Company, or to make any other contributions, assessments or payments to the Company; provided that a Member may be required to repay distributions made to it as provided in Section 18-607 of the Act. 9.7 Company's Liabilities. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement and except for those liabilities assumed by the Company pursuant to the OpCo Contribution Agreement, the Company shall not assume, or otherwise be responsible for, any liabilities or obligations of any Member whether actual or contingent, or liquidated or unliquidated, arising or occurring prior to the date hereof ("Excluded Liabilities"), which Excluded Liabilities shall include, without limitation: (1) Any liability or obligation of any Member (other than as provided in the Facilities Lease) in respect of any federal, state, local, foreign or other tax, levy, impost, fee, assessment or other governmental charge, including, without limitation, income, estimated income, business, occupation, franchise, property, payroll, personal property, sales, transfer, use, employment, commercial rent, occupancy, franchise or withholding taxes, and any premium, including, without limitation, interest, penalties and additions in connection therewith; (2) Any liability (to the extent not covered by insurance) arising from any injury to or death of any person or damage to or destruction of any property, whether based on negligence, breach of warranty, strict liability, enterprise liability or any other legal or equitable theory arising from services performed by or on behalf of any Member prior to the date hereof; (3) Any liability or obligation of any Member resulting from entering into, performing its obligations pursuant to or consummating the transactions contemplated by, this Agreement. 40 9.8 Partition. While the Company remains in effect or is continued, each Member agrees not to have any Company Property partitioned or file a complaint or institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity to have any Company Property partitioned, and each Member, on behalf of itself, its successors and its assigns hereby waives any such right. 9.9 Other Instruments. Each Member hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company within five (5) Business Days after receipt of a written request therefor, such other and further documents and instruments, statements of interest and holdings, designations, powers of attorney and other instruments and to take such other action as the Governing Board deems necessary to comply with any laws, rules or regulations as may be necessary to enable the Company to carry out fully the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Any Member or its designated representative has the right at its own cost and expense, at any reasonable time, to have access to and inspect and copy the contents of such books or records. The Governing Board shall be reimbursed by such Member for reasonable costs incurred as a result of such inspection. Notwithstanding anything in the Act (including Section 18-305(c) of the Act) or this Agreement to the contrary, the Governing Board shall not have the right to keep confidential from any Member any information concerning the Company. 10.2 Reports. The Governing Board shall be responsible for causing the preparation of (i) monthly financial reports of the Company, and (ii) annual audited financial statements in conformity with SEC standards, if required, within 75 days of the Company's year end, and (iii) the coordination of financial matters of the Company with the Company's accountants. 10.3 Confidentiality.

None of the Members hereto or any of their respective affiliates shall use or disclose, furnish or make accessible to any Person any Protected Information. SECTION 11. AMENDMENTS Amendments to this Agreement may be proposed by any Director or any Member. Following such proposal, the Governing Board shall submit to the Members a verbatim statement of any proposed amendment, providing that counsel for the Company shall have approved of the same in writing as to form, and the Governing Board shall include in any such submission a recommendation as to the proposed amendment. The Governing Board shall seek the written vote 42 of the Members on the proposed amendment or shall call a meeting to vote thereon and to transact any other business that it may deem appropriate. SECTION 12. TRANSFERS 12.1 Restrictions on Transfers. Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, no Member shall Transfer all or any portion of its Interest. 12.2 Permitted Transfers. Subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in Section 12.3 hereof, a Member may at any time Transfer all (but not less than all) of its Interest to (i) a wholly owned subsidiary of that Member, provided that the transferee subsidiary agrees to retransfer all of such Interest to such transferring Member if such transferee subsidiary ceases to be a wholly owned subsidiary of the transferring Member, (ii) the transferor's administrator or trustee to whom such Interest is transferred involuntarily by operation of law, (iii) any transferee if the transfer is approved by all Members which own twenty percent (20%) or more of the outstanding Percentage Interests, in their sole discretion, (iv) in the case of New Crescent, to a single transferee if such transfer is necessary for Crescent Real Estate Equities Company ("CEI"), as currently operated or as operated or proposed to be operated in the future to avoid jeopardizing its status as a real estate investment trust (a "REIT") under the Code, provided that prior to any transfer made by New Crescent pursuant to this clause (iv), New Crescent shall provide Magellan with a written opinion of counsel that such transfer is necessary to avoid jeopardizing the qualification of CEI as a REIT, subject to Magellan's right of first refusal under Section 12.8; provided that Magellan will notify New Crescent within 15 days after receiving notice from New Crescent of its intent to transfer pursuant to this clause (iv) and a written opinion of counsel referred to above, whether it will exercise such rights, and, if it elects to exercise such right, shall complete the purchase of such Interest within 25 days after the original notice from New Crescent (subject to the right of Magellan to extend the date for completion of the purchase for up to an additional 20 days if necessary to obtain any regulatory approvals required in connection therewith) and (v) to any Person upon compliance with the provisions of Section 12.8 hereof (any such Transfer being referred to in this Agreement shall be a "Permitted Transfer"). A permitted transferee or other transferee shall be admitted as a substituted Member of the Company in accordance with Section 12.6. In addition, a Member may also transfer its Interest, except for any voting rights associated with such Interest (other than voting rights in respect of the matters listed in Section 9.4) and the right to designate Directors on the Governing Board (each of which rights will remain with such 43 Member), in the form of a pledge to a bona fide financial institution, which, immediately prior to the creation of such pledge, is not an Affiliate of such Member, to secure bona fide arms' length recourse indebtedness of such Member and/or its subsidiaries if the pledgee thereof agrees (i) to provide the Company with all notices of foreclosure by such pledgee and (ii) in the event such pledgee becomes a Member, to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement applicable to its transferor, it being understood that both (x) the making of such pledge and (y) such financial institution's becoming a Member as the result of foreclosure on such pledge in full or partial satisfaction of all or any part of the indebtedness secured thereby or otherwise as a result of the exercise by it of its rights and remedies with respect thereto shall each constitute a Permitted Transfer and such financial institution shall be a "Member" for the purposes of this Agreement, subject to the limitations described above. If such financial institution transfers any portion of a Member's Interest pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including pursuant to Section 15.3 in the event of an Unresolved Deadlock, then, upon the consummation of such transfer, the transferee shall have all of the rights associated with such transferred Interest prior to its transfer to such financial institution (including all voting rights and the right to designate Directors related to such transferred Interest or a portion thereof), and the Member which initially transferred its Interest to such financial institution shall have no more rights in such Interest (to the extent transferred by the financial institution). 12.3 Conditions to Permitted Transfers. A Transfer shall not be treated as a Permitted Transfer under Section 12.2 hereof unless and until the following conditions are satisfied: (a) Except in the case of a Transfer involuntarily by operation of law, the transferor and transferee shall execute and deliver to the Company such documents and instruments of conveyance as may be necessary or appropriate in the opinion of counsel to the Company to effect such Transfer and to confirm the agreement of the transferee to be bound by the provisions of this Section 12, and to comply with the requirements of Code Section 6050K. In the case of a Transfer of Interests involuntarily by operation of law, the Transfer shall be confirmed by presentation to the Company of legal evidence of such Transfer, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel to the Company. In all cases, unless the requirements of this sentence have been waived by the Governing Board, the Company shall be reimbursed by the transferor and/or transferee for all costs and expenses that it reasonably incurs in connection with such Transfer. (b) The transferor and transferee shall furnish the Company with the transferee's taxpayer identification number, sufficient information to determine the transferee's initial tax basis in the Interest transferred, and any other information reasonably necessary to permit the Company to file all required federal and state tax returns and other legally required information statements or returns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to make any distribution otherwise provided for in this Agreement with respect to any transferred Interest until it has received such information. 44 (c) Either (i) the Transfer occurs pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities law or (ii) the Transfer is exempt from registration or is otherwise in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state securities law, and the transferor has furnished to the Company evidence (which may but need not in the discretion of the Governing Board include an opinion of counsel) reasonably satisfactory to the Governing Board. (d) The Transfer will not cause the Company to be deemed to be an "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the transferor shall provide an opinion of counsel to such effect, unless the Governing Board waives the requirement that such opinion be provided. Such opinion and counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Governing Board. (e) The Transfer will not cause the Company to be deemed to be a publicly traded partnership under Code Section 7704. 12.4 Prohibited Transfers. Any purported Transfer of an Interest that is not a Permitted Transfer shall be null and void and of no force or effect whatever; provided that, if the Company is required to recognize a Transfer that is not a Permitted Transfer (or if the Company, in its sole discretion, elects to recognize a Transfer that is not a Permitted Transfer), the Interest transferred shall be strictly limited to the transferor's rights to allocations and distributions as provided by this Agreement with respect to the transferred Interest, which allocations and distributions may be applied (without limiting any other legal or equitable rights of the Company) to satisfy any debts, obligations, or liabilities for damages that the transferor or transferee of such Interest may have to the Company. In the case of a Transfer or attempted Transfer of an Interest that is not a Permitted Transfer, the parties engaging or attempting to engage in such Transfer shall be liable to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other Members from all cost, liability, and damage that the Company or any of such indemnified Members may incur (including, without limitation, incremental tax liabilities, lawyers' fees and expenses) as a result of such Transfer or attempted Transfer and efforts to enforce the indemnity granted hereby. Any indemnification payments made to the Company under this Section 12.4, to the extent paid with respect to costs, liabilities or other damages incurred by a Member, shall immediately be paid by the Company to such Member. 12.5 Rights of Unadmitted Assignees. A Person who acquires an Interest but who is not admitted as a substituted Member pursuant to Section 12.6 hereof shall be entitled only to allocations and distributions with respect 45 to such Interest in accordance with this Agreement, and shall not have any of the rights of a Member under the Act or this Agreement. 12.6 Admission of Substituted Members. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 12, a transferee of an Interest may be admitted to the Company as a substituted Member only upon satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in this Section 12.6: (a) (i) The non-transferring Members consent to such admission, which consent may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of each such Member, or (ii) the Interest with respect to which the transferee is being admitted was acquired by means of a Permitted Transfer; (b) The transferee of an Interest shall, by written instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Director (and, in the case of clause (ii) below, the transferor Member), (i) accept and adopt the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including this Section 12 and (ii) assume the obligations of the transferor Member under this Agreement with respect to the transferred Interest. The transferor Member shall be released from all such assumed obligations except (i) those obligations or liabilities of the transferor Member arising out of a breach of this Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Transfer to any Person other than a Member, those obligations or liabilities of the transferor Member based on events occurring, arising or maturing prior to the date of Transfer; (c) Unless the requirements of this Section 12.6(c) have been waived by the Governing Board, the transferee pays or reimburses the Company for all reasonable legal, filing, and publication costs that the Company incurs in connection with the admission of the transferee as a Member with respect to the Transferred Interest; and (d) If required by the Governing Board, the transferee (other than a transferee that was a Member prior to the Transfer) shall deliver to the Company evidence of the authority of such Person to become a Member and to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the transferee and transferor shall each execute and deliver such other instruments as the Governing Board reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to effect, and as a condition to, such Transfer, including amendments to the Certificate or any other instrument filed with the State of Delaware or any other state or governmental authority. 12.7 Distributions and Allocations in Respect of Transferred Interests. If all or any portion of an Interest is Transferred during any Allocation Year in compliance with the provisions of this Section 12, Profits, Losses, each item thereof, and all other items attributable to the Transferred Interest for such Allocation Year shall be divided and allocated between the transferor and the transferee by taking into account their varying Percentage Interests 46 during the Fiscal Year in accordance with Code Section 706(d), using any conventions permitted by law and agreed to by the transferor and transferee. All distributions on or before the date of such Transfer shall be made to the transferor, and all distributions thereafter shall be made to the transferee. Solely for purposes of making such allocations and distributions, the Company shall recognize such Transfer not later than the end of the calendar month during which it is given notice of such Transfer; provided that, if the Company is given notice of a Transfer at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Transfer, the Company shall recognize such Transfer as of the date of such Transfer; and provided further that if the Company does not receive a notice stating the date such Interest was transferred and such other information as the Director may reasonably require within thirty (30) days after the end of the Allocation Year during which the Transfer occurs, then all such items shall be allocated, and all distributions shall be made, to the Person who, according to the books and records of the Company, was the owner of the Interest on the last day of such Allocation Year. Neither the Company nor the Director shall incur any liability for making allocations and distributions in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.7, whether or not the Director or the Company has knowledge of any Transfer of ownership of any Interest. 12.8 Right of First Refusal (a) In the event that any Member has a binding, written offer from an unrelated Person for the Transfer of its Interest other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer and desires to accept such offer to purchase (a "Proposed Transfer"), such Member (the "Selling Member") shall deliver to the Company and the remaining Members (the "Non-Selling Members") written notice of the material terms of such offer, including the proposed purchaser thereof, the amount, nature and payment schedule of the consideration to be received, the conditions, if any, associated therewith and any other material terms of such offer (an "Offer Notice"). The Offer Notice shall constitute an irrevocable offer by the Selling Member to sell all (but not less than all) of its Interest subject to the Proposed Transfer (i) first, to the Non-Selling Members and (ii) second, if and only if at that time there are more than two (2) Members, to the Company on terms and conditions of the Proposed Transfer, except that a purchaser under this Section 12.8 shall have the right to pay cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of any Non-Cash Consideration (the "Right of First Refusal"). (b) During the First Offer Period, each Non-Selling Member may elect to purchase all or any portion of such Non-Selling Member's Offer Percentage (as hereinafter defined) of the Interest subject to the Proposed Transfer by delivering written notice of such election stating the percentage of the Interest to be purchased (an "Election Notice") to the Company and the Selling Member prior to the expiration of the First Offer Period. As used herein, a Member's Offer Percentage shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the Percentage Interest of the Company held by such Member on the date of the Offer Notice and the denominator of which is the Percentage Interests held on such date by all Non-Selling Members (the "Offer Percentage"); provided that a Member shall have the right in an Election Notice to agree to purchase all or any portion of the Interest that could be purchased by other Members; and, if one or more Members do not deliver an Election 47 Notice or elect to purchase less than their respective Offer Percentages, then the portion of the Interest that could have been purchased by such Members shall be purchased by Members that, in an Election Notice, agreed to purchase such portion of the Interest, and each such Member shall purchase the portion of the Interest indicated in an Election Notice, unless the sum of the portions of the Interest exceeds the Interest so available for purchase, in which case the portions of the Interest shall be purchased pro rata on the basis of the proportionate amount of the Offer Percentage of such Members that deliver an Election Notice. The failure by any Non-Selling Member to deliver an Election Notice during the First Offer Period shall be deemed to be an election by such Member not to purchase any of the Interest subject to the Proposed Transfer. (c) If the Non-Selling Members do not elect during the First Offer Period to purchase all of the Interest subject to the Proposed Transfer, during any Second Offer Period, the Company may elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Interest that the Non-Selling Members did not elect to purchase during the First Offer Period by delivering an Election Notice to the Selling Member prior to the expiration of the Second Offer Period. The failure by the Company to deliver an Election Notice during any Second Offer Period shall be deemed to be an election by the Company not to purchase any of the Interest subject to the Proposed Transfer. (d) If the Non-Selling Members and, if applicable, the Company (either individually or collectively) do not elect to purchase all of the Interest subject to the Proposed Transfer, the Selling Member may, Transfer to the purchaser named in the Offer Notice (the "Third Party Purchaser") all (but not less than all) of the Interest subject to the Proposed Transfer in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice; provided, however, that if the Selling Member has not consummated the Transfer of such Interest within the 45 Business Day period following any Second Offer Period, all of the restrictions on Transfer contained in this Agreement shall again be in effect with respect to such Interest. (e) If the consideration for the sale of Interest pursuant to this Right of First Refusal is cash consideration, the purchase price to be paid by each of the Non-Selling Members and the Company, as applicable, shall be equal to the total consideration set forth in the Offer Notice multiplied by the percentage of such Interest being purchased by such Non-Selling Member or the Company, as applicable. If the consideration for the Proposed Transfer consists of consideration that is other than cash consideration payable in immediately available funds at the closing thereunder ("Non-Cash Consideration") or consists of a combination of cash consideration and Non-Cash Consideration, the purchase price shall be cash in an amount equal to the total of the cash consideration, if any, and the Fair Market Value of the Non-Cash Consideration as determined in accordance with Section 12.9 hereof. (f) The purchase and sale of Interest pursuant to this Right of First Refusal shall be consummated at a closing that shall occur at the principal business office of the Company within 20 Business Days following the expiration of the relevant Offer Period, or at such other place or time as may be mutually acceptable to the parties. At such closing, the Selling Member shall deliver a certificate or other instrument representing the Interest being purchased, free and clear of all liens, 48 claims, encumbrances (other than as a result of this Agreement) and defects in title and duly endorsed for Transfer to the appropriate purchaser and, in exchange therefor, the purchaser of such Interest shall pay the purchase price, as provided in Section 12.8(e) hereof, at such closing by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated in writing by the Selling Member at least three Business Days prior to such closing. 12.9 Determination of Fair Market Value. In the event that a determination of the fair market value of Non-Cash Consideration is required pursuant to the Right of First Refusal, the Selling Member shall specify in the applicable Offer Notice its good faith estimate of the fair market value of any Non-Cash Consideration to be paid in connection with the proposed transfer. If a majority of the disinterested members of the Governing Board agrees with the estimated fair market value of such Non-Cash Consideration, the estimate shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value (the "Fair Market Value") thereof for purposes of this Agreement. If a majority of the disinterested members of the Governing Board does not agree with the estimated fair market value, the Governing Board shall, within 10 Business Days of receipt of the Offer Notice, deliver to the Selling Member written notice of its disagreement and shall, for a period of 10 Business Days after delivering such notice, negotiate with the Selling Member for the purpose of determining the fair market value of the Non-Cash Consideration that is acceptable to the Governing Board and the Selling Member. If the Governing Board and the Selling Member are unable to agree on a fair market value during the aforementioned negotiation period, the Company and the Selling Member shall appoint a mutually agreeable appraiser of recognized standing with respect to the nature of the property constituting the Non-Cash Consideration to complete an appraisal of the property constituting the Non-Cash Consideration. Such appraiser shall render a binding and non-appealable appraisal of the Fair Market Value of the property constituting the Non-Cash Consideration within 10 Business Days of such appraiser's appointment or, if it is not reasonably possible to complete such appraisal in such time period, such longer period as shall be reasonably necessary to complete such appraisal (not to exceed 30 Business Days). The Company and the Selling Member each shall bear one-half of the costs of such appraisal. 12.10 Tag-Along and Bring-Along Rights. (a) Exercise of "Tag-Along Right." (i) Transfers by the Majority Member. In the event that Magellan's or Crescent's Percentage Interest in the Company decreases to less than 25%, the other party (the "Majority Member") shall not Transfer all or part of its Interest without complying with the provisions of this Section 12.10(a). If the Majority Member desires to Transfer all or part of its Interest (the "Offered Interest") to a proposed transferee, each of the other Members (a "Remaining Member") may elect (the "Tag-Along Right") to sell to such proposed transferee, on the same terms, consideration (on a Percentage Interest basis) and conditions as were offered to the Majority Member, all of the Interest then owned by each Remaining Member (if the Majority 49 Member is proposing to sell all of its Interest) or a portion of its Interest (if the Majority Member is proposing to sell less than all of its Interest) in the same proportion as the Interest proposed to be sold by the Majority Member. (ii) Notification of Proposed Transfers. In the event of a proposed Transfer subject to this Section 12.10(a), the Majority Member shall notify in writing all Remaining Members of the proposed Transfer. Such notice shall set forth: (i) the name of the proposed transferee and the portion of the Interest that is to be transferred by the Majority Member, (ii) the proposed amount and form of consideration and terms and conditions of payment offered by such proposed transferee, and (iii) that the proposed transferee has been informed of the Tag-Along Right provided for in this Section 12.10(a) and has agreed to purchase additional Interests in accordance with the terms hereof. The Tag-Along Right may be exercised by any Remaining Member by delivery of a written notice to the Company (the "Tag-Along Notice") within 30 days following receipt of the notice specified in the immediately preceding sentence stating that the Remaining Member wishes to participate in such transfer to the proposed transferee by including such Remaining Member's Interest (or a portion thereof). The Tag-Along Notice shall also specify, in the event that only a portion of the Majority Member's Interest is being purchased, whether or not the Remaining Member wishes to have any additional portion (up to all) of his Interest purchased if any other Remaining Member does not exercise such Member's Tag-Along Right. In the event that any proposed transferee does not purchase the Interest of the Majority Member or Remaining Member who has exercised such Member's Tag-Along Right on the same terms, consideration (if applicable, on a Percentage Interest basis) and conditions as those set forth in the notice delivered by the Majority Member then the sale by the Majority Member to the proposed transferee shall be void ab initio and of no force and effect, and the Company shall not recognize or give effect to such transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Remaining Member shall not exercise its Tag-Along Right provided for herein, the other Remaining Members shall have the right, upon receipt of written confirmation from the Remaining Members not participating in the Tag-Along Right, to include in their respective Tag-Along Notices, and to have purchased by the proposed transferee, an additional Interest equal to each such Member's pro rata portion of the Interest not included in the Tag-Along Right by the non-electing Remaining Member. (b) Exercise of "Bring-Along Right" (i) Transfers by the Majority Member. In the event that Magellan's or New Crescent's Percentage Interest in the Company decreases to less than 25% and the Majority Member proposes to Transfer its Interest to a proposed third party transferee in an arms-length transaction, then the Majority Member may, at its option, require (the "Bring-Along Right") each other Member to sell all of its Interest (the "Designated Interest") to the proposed transferee, at the same time and on the same terms, consideration (on a Percentage Interest basis) and conditions at which the Majority Member is selling its Interest. 50 (ii) Notification of Proposed Transfer. The Majority Member shall exercise its Bring-Along Right by sending written notice of the exercise of the Bring-Along Right to each of the other Members. Such notice shall set forth: (i) the name and address of the proposed transferee and the proposed amount and form of consideration to be paid by the proposed transferee and (ii) the terms and conditions of such transaction. Such notice shall be accompanied by copies of all documents required to be executed by the Members in connection with such transaction. Within 10 days following receipt of the notice, each of the other Members shall deliver to a representative of the Majority Member, designated in the notice, instruments (or other appropriate documents necessary to transfer the Designated Interest) representing the Designated Interest held by such Member, duly endorsed, together with fully executed copies of all other documents required to be executed in connection with such transactions, including (if requested) customary legal opinions from the counsel to such Member. In the event that a Member should fail to deliver such instruments to the Majority Member, the Company shall cause its books and records to show that such Designated Interest is bound by the provisions of this Section 12.10(b) and that such Designated Interest shall be transferred only to the third party purchaser upon surrender for transfer by the holder thereof. If requested by the Majority Member, each Member shall also cause a representative that is duly authorized to execute documents and to act on behalf of such Member to attend the closing of the transaction and to take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Majority Member. (iii) Return of Designated Interest.

If, however, after 20 Business Days such Deadlock remains, any Member, by giving notice to the other Members, may request that such Deadlock be referred for resolution to the Chief Executive Officer of Magellan and the Chief Executive Officer of New Crescent (the "Chief Executive Officers") (or, if a Member's Chief Executive Officer is on the Company's Governing Board, another senior officer or director designated by the Member). The Chief Executive Officers shall meet within 20 Business Days thereafter and shall attempt in good faith to resolve such Deadlock.

The giving of such notice of Stated Value by the Offering Party shall constitute the irrevocable offer of such party to purchase all of the Responding Party's Interest in the Company or to sell to the Responding Party all of the Offering Party's Interest in the Company for the respective purchase price provided for hereinafter. (b) Within thirty (30) days after receipt of said notice, the Responding Party shall determine whether it shall sell its Interest or purchase the Offering Party's Interest in the Company as provided herein and shall give written notice to the Offering Party of its decision and shall designate in that notice which party will be the "Selling Party" and which party shall be the 56 "Purchasing Party." If the Responding Party shall fail to give notice of its election within the said 15-day period, then the Responding Party shall be deemed to have given notice of its election to sell all of its Interest in the Company pursuant to the provisions hereof. (c) Within forty-five (45) days after the date on which the Responding Party receives the notice of Stated Value from the Offering Party, New Crescent and Magellan shall close the purchase of all of the Interest in the Company then owned by the Selling Party. The purchase price for such Interest shall be the product obtained by multiplying the Stated Value times the Percentage Interest owned by the Selling Party. The Purchasing Party shall pay the purchase price for such Interest in cash or by certified check at the closing. The Selling Party shall deliver to the Purchasing Party at the closing such documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable, in the opinion of counsel for the Purchasing Party, to effect the transfer of the Selling Party's Interest to the Purchasing Party, which Interest shall be free and clear of all Encumbrances.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company's indemnity obligations hereunder (i) will not extend to Damages arising out of negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of the Buyer, and (ii) with respect to indemnification claims under this Section 9.2 (other than, for each of (i) and (ii), Damages related to the ability of the Buyer to exercise the Warrants, receive the Warrant Shares, effect the registration of the Warrant Shares or sell the Warrant Shares), the Company's indemnification obligations (x) for a period of two (2) years following the Closing, shall not arise until the aggregate claims resulting from the breach exceed $1,000,000, at which time such indemnity obligations shall cover all claims, and (y) after two (2) years following the Closing, shall not arise until the aggregate claims during such period resulting from the breach exceed $10,000,000, at which time such indemnity obligations shall cover all claims. 9.3 Indemnification by Buyer.

Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Section 9.2 or 9.3 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under such Section, give written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced thereby. In case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified party and it shall give written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of such action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at its own expense and to participate in the defense thereof. If the indemnifying party elects not to assume (or fails to assume) the defense of such action, the indemnified party shall be entitled to assume the defense of such action with counsel of its own choice, at the expense of the indemnifying party. If the action is asserted against both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and there is a conflict of interests which renders it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be -16- responsible for paying for separate counsel for the indemnified party; provided, however, that if there is more than one indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for paying for more than one separate firm of attorneys to represent the indemnified parties, regardless of the number of indemnified parties. The indemnifying party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of any action effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

([Incorporated] under the laws of the State of [Delaware]) Void after 5:00 p.m., Atlanta, Georgia, local time, on [June 30], 2001 No. ___ Right to Purchase [_______] Shares STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, Magellan Health Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Holder"), or registered assigns, is entitled to purchase from Crescent Opportunity Corp., a [Delaware corporation] (the "Company"), at any time or from time to time during the period specified in Paragraph 2 hereof, ([______]) fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $___ per share (the "Common Stock"), at an exercise price per share of $ ___ (the "Exercise Price"). The term "Warrant Shares", as used herein, refers to the shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. The Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustment as provided in Paragraph 4 hereof. This Warrant, together with all warrants issued upon transfer, exchange or in replacement hereof pursuant to Paragraph 7 hereof (collectively, the "Warrants"), is issued pursuant to, and is - 24 - subject to all terms, provisions, and conditions contained in, that certain Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated April [___], 1997 (the "Purchase Agreement'), by and between the Company and the Holder. This Warrant is subject to the following additional terms, provisions, and conditions: 12. Manner of Exercise; Issuance of Certificates; Payment for Shares. Subject to the provisions hereof and the provisions of the Purchase Agreement which restrict the exercise of the Warrants, this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant, together with a completed Exercise Agreement in the form attached hereto, to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company's principal office in Atlanta, Georgia (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof), during the Exercise Period (as defined in Paragraph 2), and upon payment to the Company of the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in said Exercise Agreement, which such payment shall be made in cash or by certified or official bank check. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares upon any exercise of the Warrant, but instead shall pay to the holder of this Warrant the cash value of any such fractional Warrant Shares. The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the holder hereof or its designee as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered, the completed Exercise Agreement delivered, and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased, representing the aggregate number of shares specified in said Exercise Agreement, shall be delivered to the holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding ten business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be reasonably requested by the holder hereof, shall, unless the Warrant Shares evidenced by such certificate have previously been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), be imprinted with a restrictive legend substantially similar to the legend appearing on the face of this Warrant, and shall be registered in the name of said holder or such other name as shall be designated by said holder. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of said certificates, deliver to said holder a new Warrant representing the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised, which Warrant shall be imprinted on its face with the same legend appearing on the face of this Warrant. The Company shall pay all taxes and other expenses and charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution, and delivery of stock certificates (and any new Warrants) pursuant to this Paragraph 1 except that, in case such stock certificates shall be registered in a name or names other than the holder of this Warrant, funds sufficient to pay all stock transfer taxes which shall be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of such stock certificates shall be paid by the holder hereof to the Company at the time of the delivery of such stock certificates by the Company as mentioned above. 13. Period of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of the Purchase Agreement which restrict the exercise of the Warrants, this Warrant is exercisable at any time or from time to time during the period commencing at 9:00 a.m. Dallas, Texas, local time, on [ ] and ending at 5:00 p.m. Dallas, Texas, local time, on [ ] (the "Exercise Period"). - 25 - 14. Certain Actions Prohibited. The Company will not, by amendment of certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the holder of this Warrant against dilution or other impairment, consistent with the tenor and purpose of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Company will not increase the par value of the shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Exercise Price below the then par value of the shares of Common Stock so receivable, the Company will take all such corporate action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at such adjusted Exercise Price upon the exercise of this Warrant, or (iii) the Company will not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Exercise Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable after the action upon the exercise of this Warrant would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by the Company's charter and available for other than the purpose of issue upon such exercise. 15. Anti-dilution Provisions. The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Paragraph 4. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price, the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the largest number of Warrant Shares obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment. For purposes of this Paragraph 4, the term "Capital Stock," as used herein, includes the Common Stock and any additional class of stock of the Company having no preference as to dividends or distributions on liquidation which may be authorized in the future by an amendment to the Company's charter, provided that the shares purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall include only shares of Common Stock, or shares resulting from any subdivision or combination of the Common Stock, or in the case of any reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale of the character referred to in this Paragraph 4, the stock or other securities or property provided for in this Paragraph 4. (a) Subdivisions and Combinations. In case at any time the Company shall (i) subdivide the outstanding shares of Capital Stock into a greater number of shares, or (ii) combine the outstanding shares of Capital Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect - 26 - immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted proportionately so that the adjusted Exercise Price shall bear the same relation to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such event as the total number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event shall bear to the total number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the effective date of a subdivision or combination. (b) Stock Dividends. In case the Company at any time after the date hereof shall declare, order, pay or make any dividend or other distribution to all holders of the Capital Stock payable in Capital Stock, then in each such case, subject to Paragraph 4(d) hereof, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such dividend or distribution shall be reduced to a price (calculated to the nearest .001 of a cent) determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution. Such adjustment shall be made on the date such dividend is paid or such distribution is made and shall become effective retroactive to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution. (c) Dividends other than Stock Dividends. In case the Company at any time after the date hereof shall declare, order, pay or make any dividend or other distribution to all holders of the Capital Stock, other than a dividend payable in shares of Capital Stock (including, without limitation, dividends or distributions payable in cash, evidences of indebtedness, rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any Capital Stock or other securities, or any other securities or other property), then, and in each such case, subject to Paragraph 4(d) hereof, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such dividend or distribution shall be reduced to a price (calculated to the nearest .001 of a cent) determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the "Market Price" (as defined below) in effect on such record date or, if any class of Capital Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, the trading date immediately prior to the date of commencement of ex-dividend trading, less the value of such dividend or distribution (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) applicable to one share of Capital Stock, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be such Market Price on such record date of, if any class of Capital Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, the trading date immediately prior to the date of commencement of ex-dividend trading. - 27 - Such adjustment shall be made on the date such dividend is paid or such distribution is made and shall become effective retroactive to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution. For the purpose hereof, "Market Price" shall mean, on any date specified herein, (A) if any class of Capital Stock is listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the highest price obtained by taking the arithmetic mean over a period of 20 consecutive days on which such national securities exchange (or if such stock is traded on more than one national securities exchange, the exchange the Company has designated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to receive copies of reports filed by the Company under such act) is open for trading on a regular basis (any such day is a "Trading Day") ending the Trading Day immediately prior to such date of the average, on each such Trading Day, of the high and low sale prices of shares of each such class of Capital Stock or if no such sale takes place on such date, the average of the highest closing bid and lowest closing asked prices thereof on such date, in each case as officially reported on all national securities exchanges on which each such class of Capital Stock is then listed or admitted to trading, or (B) if no shares of any class of Capital Stock are then listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the highest closing price of any class of Capital Stock on such date in the over-the-counter market as shown by the NASDAQ National Market System or, if no such shares of any class of Capital Stock are then quoted in such system, as published by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. or any similar successor organization, and in either case as reported by any member firm of the New York Stock Exchange selected by the Company. If no shares of any class of Capital Stock are then listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange and if no closing bid and asked prices thereof are then so quoted or published in the over-the-counter market, "Market Price" shall mean the higher of (x) the book value per share of Capital Stock (assuming for the purposes of this calculation the economic equivalence of all shares of all class of Capital Stock) as determined on a fully diluted basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by the Board of Directors of the Company as of the last day of any month ending within 60 days preceding the date as of which the determination is to be made or (y) the fair value per share of classes of Capital Stock (assuming for the purposes of this calculation the economic equivalence of all shares of all classes of Capital Stock), as determined on a fully diluted basis in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, as of a date which is 15 days preceding the date as of which the determination is to be made. (d) Minimum Adjustment of Exercise Price. If the amount of any adjustment of the Exercise Price required pursuant to this Paragraph 4 would be less than one percent (1%) of the Exercise Price in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise so required to be made, such amount shall be carried forward and adjustment with respect thereto made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate at least one percent (1%) of such Exercise Price; provided that, upon the exercise of this Warrant, all adjustments carried forward and not theretofore made up to and including the date of such exercise shall, with respect to the portion of this Warrant then exercised, be made to the nearest .001 of a cent. - 28 - (e) Fundamental Change Transaction. In case at any time after the date hereof a purchase, tender, or exchange offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Capital Stock, or the Company is otherwise a party to any transaction (including, without limitation, a merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the Company's assets, liquidation, or recapitalization of the Capital Stock) which is to be effected in such a way that as a result of such transaction or offer (x) the holders of Common Stock (or any other securities of the Company then issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to receive stock or other securities or property (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock (or such other securities), or (y) the Capital Stock has been and thereafter ceases to be a publicly traded security either listed on the American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ National Market System or any successor thereto or comparable system (each such transaction being herein called a "Fundamental Change Transaction"), then, as a condition of such Fundamental Change Transaction, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) purchasable immediately before such transaction upon the exercise hereof, such stock or other securities or property (including cash) as may be issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) equal to the number of shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) purchasable immediately before such transaction upon the exercise hereof, had such Fundamental Change Transaction not taken place. In any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, the provisions for adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise hereof) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to the stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof (including an immediate adjustment of the Exercise Price if by reason of or in connection with such Fundamental Change Transaction any securities are issued or event occurs which would, under the terms hereof, require an adjustment of the Exercise Price). In the event of a consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation or entity as a result of which a greater or lesser number of shares of common stock of the surviving corporation or entity are issuable to holders of Capital Stock in respect of the number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to such consolidation or merger, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such consolidation or merger shall be adjusted in the same manner as though there were a subdivision or combination of the outstanding shares of Capital Stock. The Company shall not effect any such Fundamental Change Transaction unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation or entity (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation or entity purchasing such assets and any other corporation or entity the shares of stock or other securities or property of which are receivable thereupon by the holder of this Warrant shall expressly assume, by written instrument executed and delivered (and satisfactory in form) to the holder of this Warrant, (i) the obligation to deliver to such holder such stock or other securities or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to purchase and (ii) all other obligations of the Company hereunder. - 29 - (f) Notice of Adjustment. Upon the occurrence of any event requiring an adjustment of the Exercise Price, then and in each such case the Company shall promptly deliver to the holder of this Warrant a notice stating the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Within 90 days after each fiscal year in which any such adjustment shall have occurred, or within 30 days after any request therefor by the holder of this Warrant stating that such holder contemplates exercise of this Warrant, the Company will deliver to the holder of this Warrant a certificate of the Company's chief financial officer confirming the statements in the most recent notice delivered under this Paragraph 4(f). (g) Other Notices. In case at any time: (i) the Company shall declare or pay to all the holders of Capital Stock any dividend (whether payable in Capital Stock, cash, securities or other property); (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to all the holders of Capital Stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (iii) there shall be any capital reorganization, or reclassification of the Capital Stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with, or sale of all or substantially all its assets to, another corporation or other entity; (iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation, or winding-up of the Company; or (v) there shall be any other Fundamental Change Transaction; then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to the holder of this Warrant (a) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the record date established or related to any event referred to in clause (i) - (v) above (which, for purposes of events referred to in clauses (i) - (v) above, shall be the date on which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights or for determining rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, or Transaction) notice of such record date and (b) in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, or Transaction known to the Company, at least 30 days prior written notice of the date (or, if not then known, a reasonable approximation thereof by the Company) when the same shall take place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (a) shall also specify, in the case of any such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights, the date on which such holders of Capital Stock shall be entitled thereto, and such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause (b) shall also specify the date on which such holders of Capital Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Capital Stock for securities - 30 - or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, or Transaction, as the case may be. Such notice shall also state that the action in question or the record date is subject to the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act, or to a favorable vote of security holders, if either is required. (h) Certain Events. If any event occurs as to which, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, the other provisions of this Paragraph 4 are not strictly applicable or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the exercise rights of the holder of this Warrant in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors of the Company shall make such adjustment, if any, on a basis consistent with such essential intent and principles, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the rights of the holder of this Warrant; provided, that no such adjustment shall have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Paragraph 4. 16. Issue Tax. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the holder of this Warrant or such shares for any issuance tax in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any warrant or certificate in a name other than the holder of this Warrant. 17. No Rights or Liabilities as a Shareholder. This Warrant shall not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative action by the holder hereof to purchase Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of such holder for the Exercise Price or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. 18. Transfer, Exchange, and Replacement of Warrant; Registration Rights. (a) Restrictions on Transfer of Warrants. This Warrant shall not be transferable to any person or entity other than a wholly-owned affiliate of the Holder or as permitted under the Purchase Agreement. The transfer of this Warrant to a wholly-owned affiliate or other transferee permitted under the Purchase Agreement and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, is registrable at the office or agency of the Company referred to in Paragraph 7(e) hereof by the holder hereof in person or by his duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly endorsed. Upon any transfer of this Warrant to any wholly-owned affiliate or other permitted transferee, other than a wholly-owned affiliate or other permitted transferee who is at that time a holder of other Warrants, the Company shall have the right to require the holder and the affiliate or other transferee to make customary representations to the extent reasonably necessary to assure that the transfer will comply with the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws. Each holder of this Warrant, by taking or holding the same, consents and agrees that this Warrant, then endorsed in blank, shall be deemed negotiable, and that the holder hereof, when this Warrant shall have been so endorsed, may be treated by the Company and all other persons dealing with this Warrant as the absolute owner and - 31 - holder hereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented by this Warrant and to the registration of transfer hereof on the books of the Company; but until due presentment for registration of transfer on such books the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder hereof for all purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. (b) Warrant Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the holder hereof at the office or agency of the Company referred to in Paragraph 7(e) hereof, for new Warrants of like tenor representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which may be purchased hereunder, each of such new Warrants to be imprinted with the same legend appearing on the face of this Warrant and to represent the right to purchase such number of shares as shall be designated by said holder hereof at the time of such surrender. For purposes hereof, the term "Warrant" shall be deemed to include any and all such replacement Warrants, whether issued pursuant to this subparagraph (b) or any other Paragraph hereof. (c) Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft, or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor. (d) Cancellation; Payment of Expenses. Upon the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer, exchange, or replacement as provided in this Paragraph 7, this Warrant shall be promptly canceled by the Company. The Company shall pay all taxes (other than securities transfer taxes) and all other expenses and charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution, and delivery of Warrants pursuant to this Paragraph 7. (e) Register. The Company shall maintain, at its principal office in Dallas, Texas (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof), a register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record the name and address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued, as well as the name and address of each transferee and each prior owner of this Warrant. (f) Registration Rights. The issuance of any Warrant Shares required to be reserved for purposes of exercise of this Warrant and the resale of such Warrant Shares are entitled to the benefits of the registration rights set forth in the Purchase Agreement. 19. Notices. All notices, requests, and other communications required or permitted to be given or delivered hereunder to the holder of this Warrant shall be in writing, and shall be personally delivered, or shall be sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid and addressed, to such holder at the address shown for such holder on the books of the Company, or at such other - 32 - address as shall have been furnished to the Company by notice from such holder.

GOVERNING LAW. THIS WARRANT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW PRINCIPLES OF SUCH STATE. 21. Remedies. The Company stipulates that the remedies at law of the holder of this Warrant in the event of any default or threatened default by the Company in the performance of or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant are not and will not be adequate, and that such terms may be specifically enforced by a decree for the specific enforcement of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise. 22. Miscellaneous. (a) Amendments. This Warrant and any provision hereof may not be changed, waived, discharged, or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party (or any predecessor in interest thereof) against which enforcement of the same is sought. (b) Descriptive Headings.

Lender, at its option, may declare all of the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of nonpayment or any other notice required by law relative thereto, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding and, in connection therewith, if Lender so elects, by further written notice to Borrower, Lender may increase the rate of interest charged on the Note then outstanding for so long thereafter as Lender further shall elect to an amount not to exceed the Default Rate. Failure to declare all Obligations due shall not constitute an election by Lender to waive its right to demand payment at any time and in any event, as Lender in its discretion may deem appropriate. Thereafter, Lender, at its option, may, but shall not be obligated to, accept less than the entire amount of Obligations due, if tendered, provided, however, that unless then agreed to in writing by Lender, no such acceptance shall or shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or a reinstatement of any commitments of Lender hereunder. 9.2. Remedies of a Secured Party. Lender shall thereupon have the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC in effect on the date thereof (regardless of whether the same has been enacted in the jurisdiction where the rights or remedies are asserted), including, without limitation, the right to take possession of any of the Collateral or the proceeds thereof, to sell or otherwise dispose of the same, and to apply the proceeds therefrom to any of the Obligations in such order as Lender, in its sole discretion, may elect. Lender shall give Borrower written notice of the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or the time after which any other intended disposition thereof is to be made. The requirement of sending reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given to Borrower at least ten (10) days before such disposition. Expenses of retaking, holding, insuring, preserving, protecting, preparing for sale or selling or the like with respect to the Collateral shall include, in any event, reasonable attorneys' fees and other legally recoverable collection expenses, all of which shall constitute Obligations. 9.3. Repossession of the Collateral. Lender may take the Collateral or any portion thereof into its possession, by such means (without breach of the peace) and through agents or otherwise as it may elect (and, in connection therewith, demand that Borrower assemble the Collateral at a place or places and in such manner as Lender shall prescribe), and sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing, which disposition may be by public or private proceedings, by one or more contracts, as a unit or in parcels, at any time and place and on any terms, so long as the same are commercially reasonable and Borrower hereby waives all rights which Borrower has or may have under and by virtue of O.C.G.A. sections 44-14-260 through 44-14-264, including, without limitation, the right of Borrower to notice and to a judicial hearing prior to seizure of any Collateral by Lender. 9.4. Other Remedies. Unless and except to the extent expressly provided for to the contrary herein, the rights of Lender specified herein shall be in addition to, and not in 15 limitation of, Lender's rights under the UCC, as amended from time to time, or any other statute or rule of law or equity, or under any other provision of any of the Loan Documents, all of which may be exercised successively or concurrently. 10. MISCELLANEOUS. 10.1. Waiver. Each and every right granted to Lender under this Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents, or any other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith or allowed it by law or in equity, shall be cumulative and may be exercised from time to time. No failure on the part of Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Lender of any right preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. No waiver by Lender of any Default Condition or Event of Default shall constitute a waiver of any subsequent Default Condition or Event of Default. 10.2. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA. 10.3. Survival. All representations, warranties and covenants made herein and in the Loan Documents shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof but shall terminate when Lender's obligation to advance funds under the Line of Credit has expired. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the payment of the Note or the termination of the Line of Credit, until all of the Obligations have been paid in full and Lender's obligation to advance funds under the Line of Credit has expired. 10.4. Assignment. No assignment hereof or of any Loan Document shall be made by Borrower without the prior written consent of Lender. Lender may collaterally assign, pledge or transfer its rights under this Agreement, the Note or any other Loan Document to Lender's senior lenders without the consent of Borrower; any other assignment or transfer shall require the prior written consent of Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that Lender's rights, but not its obligations, under this Agreement, the Note and all other Loan Documents shall be collaterally assigned by Lender to [Money Center Bank], in its capacity as administrative agent under the Magellan Facility, for the benefit of the lenders under the Magellan Facility, pursuant to a written instrument of assignment satisfactory to [Money Center Bank] and the parties hereto; and Lender acknowledges and agrees that such collateral assignment of rights shall in no way relieve Lender of any of Lender's obligations under this Agreement or the Loan Documents. 16 10.5. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which when fully executed shall be an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement. 10.6. Reimbursement. Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses that Lender pays or actually incurs in connection with the negotiation, preparation, consummation, enforcement and termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Borrower will pay all expenses incurred by it in the transaction. In the event Borrower becomes a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, Lender's secured claim in such case shall include interest on the Obligations and all fees, costs and charges provided for herein (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred) all to the extent allowed by the Bankruptcy Code. All expenses due under this Section 10.6 shall be Obligations. 10.7. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto and thereto. 10.8. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents or the application thereof to any party thereto or circumstances shall be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of such Loan Documents and the application of such provisions to any other party thereto or circumstance shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law. 10.9. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto shall be deemed to have been given or made when personally delivered, upon the date originally received if delivered by telecopy transmission followed by registered or certified mail confirmation, one Business Day following deposit with an overnight delivery service, or three Business Days following deposit in the mail, registered or certified mail, postage prepaid (except in cases where it is expressly provided herein or by applicable law that such notice, demand or request is not effective until received by the party to whom it is addressed) as follows: To Lender: Magellan Health Services, Inc. 3414 Peachtree Road, N.E.

Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, together with the remaining Loan Documents, constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Neither this Agreement nor any Loan Document may be changed, waived, discharged, modified or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. 10.11. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 10.12. Interpretation.

JURISDICTION. BORROWER AGREES THAT ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA OR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF GEORGIA, ATLANTA DIVISION, ALL AS LENDER MAY ELECT. BY EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER HEREBY SUBMITS TO EACH SUCH JURISDICTION, HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVING WHATEVER RIGHTS MAY CORRESPOND TO IT BY REASON OF ITS PRESENT OR FUTURE DOMICILE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF LENDER TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST BORROWER IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION OR TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED OR REQUIRED BY LAW. 10.14. Payment on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under the Note is due on a date which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest hereunder or under the Note. 10.15. Cure of Defaults by Lender. If, hereafter, Borrower defaults in the performance of any duty or obligation to Lender hereunder or under any Loan Document, Lender may, at its option, but without obligation, cure such default. Any costs, fees and expenses incurred by Lender in connection therewith including, without limitation, for the purchase of insurance, the payment of taxes and the removal or settlement of liens and claims, shall become Obligations and shall be due and payable within ten Business Days of the giving of notice of such to Borrower by Lender. 10.16. Recitals. All recitals contained herein are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement and made part thereof. 19 10.17. Sole Benefit. The rights and benefits set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and thereto and may be relied upon only by them, and, in the case of Lender, its permitted assignees. 10.18. Indemnification. Borrower will hold Lender, its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns harmless from and indemnify Lender, its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns against, all loss, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees, costs and expenses) actually incurred by any of the foregoing, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or relating to any "Proceedings" (as defined below) by any Person, whether threatened or initiated, asserting a claim for any legal or equitable remedy against any Person under any statute, case or regulation, including, without limitation, any federal or state securities laws or under any common law or equitable case or otherwise, arising from this Agreement or any Loan Document or from any loans made or other actions taken by Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such losses, damages, costs or expenses are due to the wilful misconduct or gross negligence of Lender. As used herein, "Proceedings" shall mean actions, suits or proceedings before any court, governmental or regulatory authority. At the request of Lender, Borrower will indemnify any Person to whom Lender transfers or sells (subject to the provisions of Section 10.4) all or any portion of its interest in the Obligations or participation therein on terms substantially similar to the terms set forth above. Neither Borrower nor Lender shall not be responsible or liable to any Person for consequential damages which may be alleged as a result of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Obligations. 10.19. JURY TRIAL WAIVER. EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OBLIGATIONS OR THE COLLATERAL. 11.
