Section 5 — Corporate Governance and Management

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

(e)   On April 6, 2016, Brookdale Senior Living Inc. (the "Company") entered into an Addendum to Offer Letter (the "Addendum") with each of Labeed S. Diab and Lucinda M. Baier pursuant to which the Company has agreed to enhance the relocation benefits available to them to include the provision of home sale assistance to facilitate an accelerated move of each such executive to the Nashville area.

If either executive elects to take advantage of the home sale assistance benefit, the Company would engage a third-party provider of relocation services to assist with the sale of such executive's primary residence. The home sale assistance program includes marketing support and, if elected by the executive, facilitation of the purchase of the executive's primary residence on the Company's behalf by the third-party provider at a price determined by averaging multiple independent current fair market value appraisals, with the third-party provider subsequently marketing and reselling the property on the Company's behalf. Consistent with Mr. Diab's initial offer letter dated October 26, 2015 and Ms. Baier's initial offer letter dated October 28, 2015, if Mr. Diab or Ms. Baier voluntarily terminates employment or withdraws from full-time status prior to 18 months or 12 months, respectively, of the executive's start date, the executive will be required to reimburse the Company for all costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the relocation benefits and assistance provided to such executive.

The foregoing description of each Addendum does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of each Addendum filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.
