DELIVERY OF THIS NOTICE OF GUARANTEED DELIVERY TO AN ADDRESS OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE, OR TRANSMISSION TO A FACSIMILE NUMBER OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE, WILL NOT CONSTITUTE A VALID DELIVERY.

You must use this form to accept the offer (the “Offer”) of Manor Care, Inc. (the “Company”) made pursuant to the Offer to Exchange, dated November 3, 2004 (the “Offer to Exchange”), if the procedure for book-entry transfer cannot be completed on a timely basis or time will not permit all required documents to reach Global Bondholder Services Corporation, as exchange agent for the Offer (the “Exchange Agent”) prior to 12:00 Midnight, New York City time, on December 1, 2004. This letter or such form may be delivered or transmitted by facsimile transmission, mail or hand delivery to the Exchange Agent as set forth below. In addition, in order to utilize the guaranteed delivery procedure to tender your 2.125% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2023 (the “Old Notes”) pursuant to the Offer, a Letter of Transmittal (or manually signed facsimile thereof) or an electronic confirmation pursuant to The Depository Trust Company’s Automatic Tender Offer Program (“ATOP”) system, with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents (including an agent’s message, or an express acknowledgment, confirming that you have received and agree to be bound by the Letter of Transmittal and that the Letter of Transmittal may be enforced against you) must also be received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in the Offer to Exchange). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are defined in the Letter of Transmittal.

THIS NOTICE OF GUARANTEED DELIVERY IS NOT TO BE USED TO GUARANTEE SIGNATURES. IF A SIGNATURE ON A LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL IS REQUIRED TO BE GUARANTEED BY AN “ELIGIBLE INSTITUTION” UNDER THE INSTRUCTIONS THERETO, SUCH SIGNATURE GUARANTEE MUST APPEAR IN THE APPLICABLE SPACE PROVIDED ON THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.

Upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Exchange and the accompanying Letter of Transmittal, the undersigned hereby tenders to the Company the aggregate principal amount of Old Notes set forth below pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedure described in the section titled “The Offer to Exchange — Guaranteed Delivery Procedures,” in the Offer to Exchange. By so tendering, the undersigned does hereby make, at and as of the date hereof, the representations and warranties of a tendering Holder of Old Notes set forth in the Letter of Transmittal.

All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred by this Notice of Guaranteed Delivery shall survive the death or incapacity of the undersigned and every obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, executors, successors, assigns, trustees in bankruptcy and other legal representatives of the undersigned.
