Forward-Looking Statements
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Quarterly Report") and certain information incorporated herein by reference contain forward-looking statements and information within the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. This information includes assumptions made by, and information currently available to management, including statements regarding future economic performance and financial condition, liquidity and capital resources, and management’s plans and objectives. In addition, certain statements included in this Quarterly Report, in the Company’s future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), in press releases, and in oral and written statements made by us or with our approval, which are not statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “seeks,” “plan,” “project,” “continue,” “predict,” “will,” “should,” and other words or expressions of similar meaning are intended by us to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations about future events or results and information that is currently available to us, involve assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, and speak only as of the date on which such statements are made. 
All forward-looking statements are subject to the risks and uncertainties inherent in predicting the future.  The Company’s actual results may differ materially from those projected, stated or implied in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including the Company’s critical accounting policies and risks and uncertainties related to, but not limited to, overall industry environment, regulatory delays, negative clinical results, and the Company’s financial condition.  These and other risks and uncertainties are described in more detail in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as other reports that the Company files with the SEC. 
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of any subsequent date.  The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise such statements to reflect new circumstances or unanticipated events as they occur, except as required by applicable laws, and you are urged to review and consider disclosures that the Company makes in this Quarterly Report and other reports that the Company files with the SEC that discuss factors germane to the Company’s business.

ADCARE HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
 
NOTE 1.                          SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

See Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 31, 2015 (the "Annual Report"), for a description of all significant accounting policies. 
Description of Business
 
AdCare Health Systems, Inc. (“AdCare”) and its controlled subsidiaries (collectively with AdCare, the “Company” ) own, lease, operate or manage for third-parties skilled nursing and assisted living facilities in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma and South Carolina.
In July 2014, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions, the Company is in the process of transitioning to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities. In furtherance of this strategic plan, the Company is now focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties.
As of June 30, 2015, the Company operated or managed fifteen facilities comprised of thirteen skilled nursing facilities, one assisted living facility and one independent living/senior housing facility totaling 1,572 beds. The Company’s facilities provide a range of health care services to patients and residents including skilled nursing and assisted living services, social services, various therapy services, and other rehabilitative and healthcare services for both long-term residents and short-stay patients. As of June 30, 2015, of the fifteen facilities, the Company owned and operated nine facilities, leased and operated three facilities, and managed three facilities for third-parties.
As of June 30, 2015, the Company also leased fourteen owned and subleased eight leased skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities and one owned assisted living facility to local third-party operators in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company entered into certain leasing and operations transfer agreements for facilities located in Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina (see Note 7 - Leases for a full description of such leases). Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company entered into certain leasing and operations transfer agreements for facilities located in Georgia and Ohio (see Note 16 - Subsequent Events).
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Article 8 of Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented have been included.  Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year. The balance sheet at December 31, 2014, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. 
You should read the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements together with the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in the Annual Report. 
The Company operates in one business segment. These statements include the accounts of AdCare Health Systems, Inc. and its controlled subsidiaries. Controlled subsidiaries include AdCare’s majority owned subsidiaries and one consolidated variable interest entity (a "VIE") in which AdCare has control as primary beneficiary. All inter-company accounts and transactions were eliminated in the consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Examples of significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts; contractual allowances for Medicaid, Medicare, and managed care reimbursements; deferred tax valuation allowance; fair value of derivative instruments; fair value of employee and nonemployee stock based awards; and valuation of goodwill and other long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. 

Reclassifications
 
Certain items previously reported in the consolidated financial statement captions have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation with no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. These reclassifications did not affect total assets, total liabilities, or stockholders’ equity. In addition, reclassifications were made to the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, to reflect the same facilities in discontinued operations for both periods presented.
Patient Care Revenue Recognition and Receivables
The Company recognizes patient care revenue when the following four conditions have been met: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or service has been rendered; (iii) the price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. The Company's patient care revenue is derived primarily from providing healthcare services to residents and is recognized on the date services are provided at amounts billable to the individual. For reimbursement arrangements with third-party payors including Medicaid, Medicare and private insurers, patient care revenue is recorded based on contractually agreed-upon amounts on a per patient, daily basis.
Patient care revenue from the Medicaid and Medicare programs accounted for 80.0% and 79.9% of the Company’s patient care revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and 81.5% and 81.2% of the Company's patient care revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The Company records patient care revenue from these governmental and managed care programs as services are performed at their expected net realizable amounts under these programs. The Company’s patient care revenue from governmental and managed care programs is subject to audit and retroactive adjustment by governmental and third-party agencies. Consistent with healthcare industry accounting practices, any changes to these governmental revenue estimates are recorded in the period the change or adjustment becomes known. The Company recorded retroactive adjustments to patient care revenue which were not material to the Company's consolidated revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.
Potentially uncollectible patient accounts are provided for on the allowance method based upon management's evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at period-end and historical experience. Uncollected accounts that are written off are charged against allowance. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company has an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $10.9 million and $6.7 million, respectively. 
Management Fee Revenue Recognition and Receivables  
Management fee revenues and receivables are recorded in the month that services are provided. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company evaluated collectibility of management fees and determined that no allowance was required. 
Rental Revenue Recognition and Receivables

The Company, as lessor or sublessor, makes a determination with respect to each of its leases and subleases whether they should be accounted for as operating leases. The Company recognizes rental revenues on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease when collectibility is reasonably assured. Differences between rental income earned and amounts due under the lease are charged or credited, as applicable, to straight-line rent receivable, net. Payments received under operating leases are accounted for in the statements of operations as rental revenue for actual rent collected plus or minus a straight-line adjustment for estimated minimum lease escalators. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company evaluated collectibility of rental revenue and determined that no allowance was required.

Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments 

Accounting guidance establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1—     Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2—     Other observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3—     Significant unobservable inputs
The respective carrying value of certain financial instruments of the Company approximates their fair value. These instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments, accounts receivable, notes receivable, and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments because they are short-term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values, they are receivable or payable on demand, or the interest rates earned and/or paid approximate current market rates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
Except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws and a limited number of grandfathered standards, the FASB ASC is the sole source of authoritative GAAP literature recognized by the FASB and applicable to the Company. The Company has reviewed the FASB accounting pronouncements and ASU interpretations that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods.     
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08 which amends the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. This ASU should be applied prospectively and is effective for the Company for the 2015 annual and interim reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for disposals that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. The Company has adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2015.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 guidance requiring revenue to be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods and services. The new standard requires the disclosure of sufficient quantitative and qualitative information for financial statement users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and associated cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In July 2015, the FASB delayed the effective date of the new revenue standard by one year. As a result, this new revenue standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those reporting periods. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 guidance regarding an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, which requires management to assess a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. Before this new standard, there was minimal guidance in GAAP specific to going concern. Under the new standard, disclosures are required when conditions give rise to substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the financial statement issuance date. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03 guidance regarding debt issuance costs as a part of the simplification and productivity initiative. Under this new standard, debt issuance costs will be presented as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability, consistent with the presentation of debt discounts. The amortization of debt issuance costs will be reported as interest expense. The new standard is to be applied on a retrospective basis and reported as a change in an accounting principle. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company is currently evaluating changes in its accounting required by this new standard and the impact to the Company's financial position and related disclosures.

NOTE 2.                          EARNINGS PER SHARE 

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share except net income or loss is adjusted for potentially dilutive securities, such as options, warrants, non-vested shares, and additional shares issuable under subordinated convertible promissory notes outstanding during the period when such potentially dilutive securities are not anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities from options, warrants and unvested restricted shares are calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities from subordinated convertible promissory notes are calculated based on the assumed issuance at the beginning of the period, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from their assumed issuance. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, potentially dilutive securities of 6.6 million and 9.1 million, respectively, were excluded from the diluted income (loss) per share calculation because including them would have been anti-dilutive in both periods.
The following tables provide a reconciliation of net income (loss) for continuing and discontinued operations and the number of shares of common stock used in the computation of both basic and diluted earnings per share:

NOTE 3.                          LIQUIDITY AND PROFITABILITY
 
Sources of Liquidity

At June 30, 2015, the Company had $15.3 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash and investments of $14.4 million. Over the next 12 months, the Company anticipates both access to and receipt of several sources of liquidity.

At June 30, 2015, the Company had one facility, three office buildings and one VIE held for sale that the Company anticipates selling in 2015. The Company expects that the cash proceeds and the release of restricted cash on the sale of the VIE and the sale of the one facility will be approximately equivalent to the related debt obligations. The Company expects that the cash proceeds from the sale of the office buildings will exceed related debt obligations by approximately $0.6 million.

The Company routinely has ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, has refinanced short term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional long term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs.

During the remainder of 2015, the Company anticipates net proceeds of approximately $1.6 million on refinancing of existing debt, primarily in the fourth quarter of 2015, subject to approval by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development.


12


The Company maintains two revolving lines of credit for which the Company has limited remaining capacity. All balances on these lines of credit are expected to be repaid in 2015. Given the Company's ongoing transition out of healthcare operations, the Company does not anticipate any additional draws on these credit lines.

On April 13, 2015, the Company issued and sold 575,000 shares of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, no par value per share and liquidation preference of $25.00 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), in a “best efforts” registered public offering for a public offering price of $25.75 per share. In connection therewith, the Company received net proceeds of $13.8 million, after the payment of underwriting commissions and discounts and other offering expenses payable by the Company.

On June 2, 2015, the Company issued and sold 588,235 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in a “best efforts” registered public offering for a public offering price of $25.50 per share. In connection therewith, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $14.2 million after the payment of underwriting commissions and discounts and other offering expenses payable by the Company (see Note 11 - Dividends and Equity).

On July 21, 2015, the Company entered into separate at market issuance sales agreements with two sales agents, pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, up to 800,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock through an “at the market” offering program (see Note 16 - Subsequent Events).

On July 30, 2015, the Company entered into an amendment, effective July 31, 2015, to a certain 8% subordinated convertible note issued by the Company and due July 31, 2015, with a then-current principal amount of $4,847,000, to, among other things: (i) extend the maturity date of such note with respect to $1,500,000 of its principal amount to October 31, 2017; (ii) increase the interest rate from 8.0% to 10.0% per annum; and (iii) increase the conversion price from $3.97 to $4.25 per share (see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt, Note 15 - Related Party Transactions and Note 16 - Subsequent Events).

Other liquidity sources include to a lesser extent, the proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.

Cash Requirements

At June 30, 2015, the Company had $146.3 million in indebtedness of which the current portion was $27.6 million. This current portion is comprised of: (i) convertible debt of approximately $4.5 million; (ii) debt of held for sale entities of approximately $15.3 million, which is primarily senior debt - bond and mortgage indebtedness; and (iii) remaining debt of approximately $7.8 million which includes revolver debt, senior debt - bonds, and senior debt - mortgage indebtedness (for a complete debt listing and credit facility detail, see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt).

The convertible debt includes the 8% subordinated convertible note which was amended effective July 31, 2015 and described under "-Sources of Liquidity" (see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt, Note 15 - Related Party Transactions and Note 16 - Subsequent Events).

The current debt maturing in 2015 for all other debt approximates $7.8 million. As indicated previously, the Company routinely has ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, has refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs.

The Company anticipates net principal disbursements of approximately $9.8 million over the next twelve months which reflect the offset of anticipated proceeds on refinancing of approximately $2.5 million. The Company anticipates operating cash requirements in 2015 as being less than in 2014 due to the Company's transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Based on the described sources of liquidity and related cash requirements, the Company expects sufficient funds for its operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures at least through the next twelve months. On a longer term basis, at June 30, 2015, the Company has approximately $64.2 million of debt maturities due over the next two-year period, ending June 30, 2017, excluding convertible notes which are convertible into shares of common stock. The Company has been successful in recent years in raising new equity capital and believes, based on recent discussions, that these markets will continue to be available to it for raising capital in 2015 and beyond. The Company believes its long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness.

In order to satisfy the Company's capital needs, the Company seeks to: (i) improve operating results through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions with favorable terms and consistent and predictable cash flow; (ii) expand borrowing arrangements with certain lenders; (iii) refinance current debt where possible to obtain more favorable terms; and (iv) raise capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities on terms favorable to the Company. The Company anticipates that these actions, if successfully executed, will provide the opportunity to maintain liquidity on a short-and-long term basis, thereby permitting the Company to

13


meet our operating and financing obligations for the next twelve months. However, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful or that anticipated operating results or the transition of the Company to primarily a property holding and leasing company will be achieved. The Company currently has limited borrowing availability under our existing revolving credit facilities.

NOTE 7. LEASES
Operating Leases
The Company leases a total of eleven skilled nursing facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, most of which have initial lease terms of ten to twelve years with rent escalation clauses and provisions for payments by the Company of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs; three of the skilled nursing facilities that are leased are also operated by the Company. The Company also leases certain office space with similar provisions as the aforementioned skilled nursing facility leases.
Eight of the Company's skilled nursing facilities are operated under a single master indivisible lease arrangement, dated August 1, 2010, with William M. Foster as landlord (the "Prime Lease"). The lease has a term of ten years into 2020. Under the Prime Lease, a breach at a single facility could subject one or more of the other facilities covered by the same master lease to the same default risk. Failure to comply with regulations or governmental authorities, such as Medicaid and Medicare provider requirements, is a default under the Prime Lease. In addition, other potential defaults related to an individual facility may cause a default of the entire Prime Lease. With an indivisible lease, it is difficult to restructure the composition of the portfolio or economic terms of the lease without the consent of the landlord.
As previously disclosed, on May 18, 2015, the landlord delivered to the Company a notice which alleges that the Company is in default under the Prime Lease for, among other reasons, subleasing the facilities to third-party operators without the landlord’s written consent and reserves the landlord’s right to terminate the Prime Lease and/or pursue any other remedy available at law or in equity. The Company does not believe that it is in default under the Prime Lease and is in discussions with the landlord regarding the matter.
Two of the Company's facilities are operated under a single indivisible lease; therefore, a breach at a single facility could subject the second facility to the same default risk. The lease has an initial term of twelve years into 2022 and two optional ten-year renewal terms, and includes covenants and restrictions. The Company is required to make minimum capital expenditures of $375 per licensed bed per lease year at each facility which amounts to $0.1 million per year for both facilities. As of June 30, 2015, the Company is in compliance with all financial and administrative covenants of this lease agreement.
Future minimum lease payments for each of the next five years ending December 31, are as follows:

Leased and Subleased Facilities to Third-Party Operators

16


In connection with the Company's strategic plan to transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company, twenty-three facilities (fifteen owned by us and eight leased to us) are leased or subleased on a triple net basis, meaning that the lessee (i.e., the new third-party operator of the property) is obligated under the lease or sublease, as applicable, for all liabilities of the property in respect to insurance, taxes and facility maintenance, as well as the lease or sublease payments, as applicable.
Future minimum lease receivables from the Company’s facilities leased and subleased to third party operators for each of the next five years ending December 31, are as follows:

The remaining eight sublease agreements commenced on May 1, 2015. In connection with entering into the sublease agreements, each Aria Sublessor and Aria Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the applicable facility, each containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations of the skilled nursing facilities.
As a condition to the Aria Sublessees agreement to a commencement date of May 1, 2015, the Company and the Aria Sublessees agreed to assess, in good faith and within thirty (30) days following the commencement date, making a one-time equitable adjustment to base rent equal to the difference between the facilities 2014 professional liability and general liability insurance costs and projected costs for the first lease year of comparable or mutually acceptable insurance as further adjusted by anticipated Medicaid reimbursement rate increases solely from such added costs. Pursuant to each sublease agreement, the initial lease term is ten years with a five-year renewal option. The annual base rent under all of the sublease agreements in the first year is $5.3 million in the aggregate, exclusive of any equitable adjustment, and the annual base rent under each sublease will escalate at 2% each year through the initial term and 3% per year upon renewal.

On July 17, 2015, the Company made a short-term loan to HAH and, in connection therewith, HAH executed a promissory note in the amount $1.2 million in favor of the Company. Interest accrues on the unpaid principal balance of the note at a rate of 12.5% per annum (see Note 16 - Subsequent Events).

As of June 30, 2015, the Company (including its consolidated VIE) has approximately 43 credit related instruments (credit facilities, mortgage notes, bonds and other credit obligations) outstanding that include various financial and administrative covenant requirements. Covenant requirements include, but are not limited to, fixed charge coverage ratios, debt service coverage ratios, minimum EBITDA or EBITDAR, current ratios and tangible net worth requirements. Certain financial covenant requirements are based on consolidated financial measurements whereas others are based on measurements at the subsidiary level (i.e., facility, multiple facilities or a combination of subsidiaries). The subsidiary level requirements are further defined in the table below as follows: (i) financial covenants measured against subsidiaries of the Company ("Subsidiary"); and (ii) financial covenants measured against third-party operator performance ("Operator"). Some covenants are based on annual financial metric measurements whereas others are based on quarterly financial metric measurements. The Company routinely tracks and monitors its compliance with its covenant requirements. In recent periods, including as of June 30, 2015, the Company has not been in compliance with certain financial covenants. For each instance of such non-compliance, the Company has obtained waivers or amendments to such requirements including, as necessary, modifications to future covenant requirements or the elimination of certain requirements in future periods.

Non-consolidated Variable Interest Entities

29


On April 30, 2015, the Company entered into the Aria Lease Inducement with Aria Health Consulting, LLC. The Aria Lease Inducement provides for a one-time payment from the Company to Aria Health Consulting, LLC equal to $2.0 million minus the security deposits and first month's base and special rent for all Aria Sublessees. On April 30, 2015, in connection with the Aria Lease Inducement, the eight sublease agreements with Aria Sublessees were amended to, among other things, provide that the Aria Sublessees shall, collectively, pay to the Aria Sublessors special rent in the amount of $29,500 per month payable in advance on or before the first day of each month (except for the first special rent payment, which shall be subtracted from the lease inducement fee paid by the Company under the Aria Lease Inducement).
The Aria Lease Inducement entered into by the Company provides subordinated financial support to Aria Health Consulting, LLC and creates a variable interest that may absorb some or all of a variable interest entity’s expected losses. The Company does not consolidate the operating activities of the Aria Sublessees as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance (see Note 7 - Leases and Note 16 - Subsequent Events).
NOTE 14.                       COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Regulatory Matters
 
Laws and regulations governing federal Medicare and state Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future governmental review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties, and exclusion from certain governmental programs. The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations. 
A significant portion of the Company’s revenue is derived from Medicaid and Medicare, for which reimbursement rates are subject to regulatory changes and government funding restrictions. Any significant future change to reimbursement rates could have a material effect on the Company’s operations. 
Legal Matters
 
The skilled nursing business involves a significant risk of liability due to the age and health of the Company’s patients and residents and the services the Company provides. The Company and others in the industry are subject to an increasing number of claims and lawsuits, including professional liability claims, which may allege that services have resulted in personal injury, elder abuse, wrongful death or other related claims. The defense of these lawsuits may result in significant legal costs, regardless of the outcome, and can result in large settlement amounts or damage awards. 
In addition to the potential lawsuits and claims described above, the Company is also subject to potential lawsuits under the Federal False Claims Act and comparable state laws alleging submission of fraudulent claims for services to any healthcare program (such as Medicare) or payer. A violation may provide the basis for exclusion from federally funded healthcare programs. As of June 30, 2015, the Company does not have any material loss contingencies recorded or requiring disclosure based upon the evaluation of the probability of loss from known claims, except as disclosed below. 
Oklahoma Facilities
On June 24, 2013, South Star Services, Inc. (“SSSI”), Troy Clanton and Rose Rabon (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint in the District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma against: (i) AdCare, certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries and AdCare’s former Chief Executive Officer (collectively, the “AdCare Defendants”); (ii) Christopher Brogdon (a director of the Company, owner of greater than 5% of the outstanding shares of AdCare Health Systems, Inc. common stock and former Chief Acquisition Officer of the Company) and his wife; and (iii) five entities controlled by Mr. and Mrs. Brogdon, which entities own five skilled-nursing facilities located in Oklahoma that were previously managed by an AdCare subsidiary (the "Oklahoma Facilities"). The complaint alleges, with respect to the AdCare Defendants, that: (i) the AdCare Defendants tortuously interfered with contractual relations between the Plaintiffs and Mr. Brogdon, and with Plaintiffs’ prospective economic advantage, relating to SSSI’s right to manage the Oklahoma Facilities and seven other skilled-nursing facilities located in Oklahoma (collectively, the “Facilities”), respectively; (ii) the AdCare Defendants fraudulently induced the Plaintiffs to perform work and incur expenses with respect to the Facilities; and (iii) one of the AdCare subsidiaries which is an AdCare Defendant provided false and defamatory information to an Oklahoma regulatory authority regarding SSSI’s management of one of the Oklahoma Facilities. The complaint seeks damages against the AdCare Defendants, including punitive damages, in an unspecified amount, as well as costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees. On March 7, 2014, the Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in which they alleged additional facts regarding the alleged fraudulent inducement caused by Mr. and Mrs. Brogdon and the AdCare Defendants.

30


On February 10, 2015, Plaintiffs and the defendants participated in a voluntary mediation in an attempt to resolve the case. Although the case did not settle at the mediation, Plaintiffs and defendants continued to negotiate over the following weeks and executed a settlement agreement on March 30, 2015 (the "Clanton Settlement Agreement") to settle all claims for a lump sum payment of $2.0 million. In April 2015, under the Clanton Settlement Agreement, the Company paid $0.6 million to the Plaintiffs with the balance thereof to be paid by two of the Company's insurance carriers. The Company and the other defendants in the matter deny all of the Plaintiff's claims and any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the matter to avoid the continued expense and unpredictability of litigation.
Ohio Facilities
On March 7, 2014, the Company responded to a letter received from the Ohio Attorney General ("OAG") dated February 25, 2014 demanding repayment of approximately $1.0 million as settlement for alleged improper Medicaid payments related to seven Ohio facilities affiliated with the Company. The OAG alleged that the Company had submitted improper Medicaid claims for independent laboratory services for glucose blood tests and capillary blood draws. The Company intends to defend itself against the claims. The Company has not recorded a liability for this matter because the liability, if any, and outcome cannot be determined at this time.
NOTE 15.                       RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Settlement and Indemnification Agreement
On March 26, 2015, the Company and certain entities controlled by Christopher Brogdon, a director of the Company and a beneficial owner of 5% of the outstanding common stock, entered into a Settlement and Indemnification Agreement with respect to: (i) certain claims made by the Brogdon entities in connection with management and administrative services provided by the Company to the Brogdon entities under various management agreements; and (ii) certain pending, or threatened, legal proceedings against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and Mr. Brogdon and certain entities controlled by him, including the litigation filed in the District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma and described in Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies (collectively, and including any unasserted claims arising from the management agreements, the “AdCare Indemnified Claims”). Pursuant to the Settlement and Indemnification Agreement, the Company agreed to contribute up to $0.6 million towards the settlement of the litigation, and Mr. Brogdon and the Brogdon entities agree to release the Company from any and all claims arising in connection with the management agreements and to indemnify the Company with respect to the AdCare Indemnified Claims.

On July 21, 2015, the Company entered into separate At Market Issuance Sales Agreements (together, the “Sales Agreements”) with each of MLV & Co. LLC and JMP Securities LLC (each, an “Agent” and together, the “Agents”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, up to 800,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock through an “at the market” offering program through the Agents.

Arkansas Subleases

On July 17, 2015, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Highlands Sublessor”) entered into a sublease agreement pursuant to which the Highlands Sublessor will lease one skilled nursing facility located in Arkansas to an affiliate of Aria Health Group, LLC (the “Highlands Sublessee”). Affiliates of both the Company and Aria Health Group, LLC had entered into a sublease agreement, dated January 16, 2015, for the same facility but it was mutually terminated on April 30, 2015.

The sublease agreement, and the transfer of operations of the facility as contemplated thereby, shall commence on September 1, 2015 and are subject to, among other things, the Highland Sublessee’s receipt of all licenses and other approvals from the State of Arkansas to operate such facility. The sublease agreement is structured as triple net lease wherein the Highlands Sublessee is

32


responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease. The initial term of the sublease agreement will expire on April 30, 2022 and may be renewed once, upon the exercise of the Highlands Sublessee’s option assuming the satisfaction of certain conditions, for an additional five year period. The annual rent under the sublease agreement in the first year will be approximately $600,000, and the annual rent will escalate by 3% per year through the lease term and any renewal term. In connection with the sublease agreement, the current licensed operator of the facility, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Highlands Sublessor, and the Highlands Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the facility, containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations thereof.

On May 1, 2015, the Aria Sublessors leased, and transferred the operations of, eight skilled nursing facilities located in Arkansas to the Aria Sublesses, pursuant to separate sublease agreements dated January 16, 2015. As a condition to the commencement of the sublease agreements on May 1, 2015, the Company agreed to assess in good faith the making of a one-time equitable adjustment to the applicable base rent of each subleased facility. On July 17, 2015, the Company, on behalf of each Aria Sublessor, and HAH, acting on behalf of each Aria Sublessee, entered into a letter agreement whereby the parties agreed to amend the sublease agreements to reflect a onetime equitable adjustment to annual base rent, for the collective benefit of each Aria Sublessee, in the aggregate amount of $360,000. In consideration for this one-time equitable adjustment in base rent, the parties further agreed that each sublease agreement shall be amended to reflect that base rent after the initial lease year will increase during each subsequent lease year by 3%.

On July 17, 2015, the Company made a short-term loan to HAH and, in connection therewith, HAH executed a promissory note in the amount $1.2 million in favor of the Company. Interest accrues on the unpaid principal balance of the note at a rate of 12.5% per annum. The principal and interest thereon is payable on August 13, 2015. Until all amounts due and owing under the note have been paid, neither the Aria Sublessees nor the Highland Sublessee will pledge, as security, any of the accounts receivable relating to the respective facilities that such entity subleases from the Aria Sublessors or the Highland Sublessor, as applicable. Until all principal and interest under the note is paid, the Company and its affiliates may retain as collateral all funds received by them from Medicare for the benefit of HAH or its affiliates with respect to the properties leased to the affiliates of Aria Health Group, LLC. If the note is not paid in full by the maturity date, then the Company may apply such funds to principal and interest due under the note. The Company is currently in discussions with HAH to extend the maturity date of the loan.

Georgia Leases
On July 1, 2015, a wholly-owned subsidiary (“Glenvue Sublessor”) of the Company entered into a sublease agreement ("Glenvue Agreement") pursuant to which Glenvue Sublessor leased the Facility to C.R. of Glenvue, LLC (the "Glenvue Sublessee") commencing on July 1, 2015. The Glenvue Agreement is structured as triple net lease wherein the Glenvue Sublessee is responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease. The initial term of the Glenvue Agreement will expire on June 30, 2020 and has a five year renewal option. The annual cash rent under the sublease agreement in the first year is $1.2 million, and the annual rent will escalate at $12,000 annually through the lease term. The Glenvue Agreement replaces an existing sublease agreement that was originally executed in November 2014.
On July 20, 2015, the Georgia Sublessor entered into a sublease agreement pursuant to which the Georgia Sublessor will lease two skilled nursing facilities located in Georgia (the “Georgia Properties”) to affiliates of Wellington Health Services, L.L.C (collectively, the “Georgia Sublessees”). The sublease agreement is one indivisible lease for the lease of both Georgia Properties, and the terms of the sublease agreement apply to both Georgia Properties collectively as though they are treated as one economic unit. The Wellington Sublessor currently leases the Georgia Properties from a third-party landlord (“Landlord”) under a master lease agreement (the “Master Lease”), and the sublease agreement is subject and subordinate to the Master Lease.

The sublease agreement, and the transfer of operations of the Georgia Properties as contemplated thereby, are subject to, among other things, the Landlord’s consent to the sublease agreement and each Wellington Sublessee’s receipt of all licenses and other approvals from the State of Georgia to operate the applicable Georgia Property. The initial term of the sublease agreement commences as of the date the Wellington Sublessees have obtained all necessary licenses and approvals, subject to certain adjustments. The sublease agreement is structured as a triple net lease wherein the Wellington Sublessees are responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease. The initial term of the sublease agreement will expire on the tenth anniversary of the commencement date. If the Wellington Sublessor and the Landlord agree to extend the term of the Master Lease, then the Wellington Sublessees have the right to extend the term of the sublease agreement through the end of the applicable renewal term of the Master Lease. The annual rent under the sublease agreement in the first year will be approximately $2.0 million, and shall increase by $5,000 per month in the second year and again by $5,000 per month in the third year. Thereafter, base rent will escalate by 3% per year through the lease term and any renewal term. In connection with the sublease agreement, the Wellington Sublessor and the Wellington Sublessees also entered into operations transfer agreements with respect to the applicable Georgia Properties, containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations thereof.

33



Ohio Leases

As previously disclosed, certain wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company (each, a “Beacon Sublessor”) entered into five sublease agreements, in or around October 2014, pursuant to which those subsidiaries would lease four skilled nursing facilities and one assisted living facility located in Ohio (collectively, the “Beacon Facilities”) to certain affiliates of Beacon Health Management, LLC (each, a “Beacon Sublessee”). On August 1, 2015, the Beacon Sublessors and the Beacon Sublessees entered into new sublease agreements that replaced the existing sublease agreements entered into in or around October 2014. Each of these new sublease agreements became effective on August 1, 2015 and the operations of the Beacon Facilities were transferred to the Beacon Sublessees.

The terms of the sublease agreements for four of the Beacon Facilities known as Eaglewood Village, Hearth and Care of Greenfield, the Pavilion Care Center, and Woodland Manor (collectively, the “EHPW Facilities”) are materially identical and vary slightly from the terms of the sublease agreement for the fifth Beacon Facility, Covington Care Center. Each of the five sublease agreements is structured as triple net lease wherein each Beacon Sublessee is responsible for the day-to-day operation, ongoing maintenance, taxes and insurance for the duration of the sublease. The initial lease term for each of the EHPW Facilities is ten years with a five-year renewal option, and the initial lease term for the Covington Care Center is approximately four years with no renewal option. The aggregate annual base rent under the sublease agreements for the EHPW Facilities in the first year is $2.2 million and it will escalate at 2.5% each year through the initial term. The annual base rent for the Covington Care Center in the first lease year is approximately $0.8 million and it will escalate at an annual rate of $12,000 through the initial term. To establish a fair market base rent under each of the sublease agreements for the EHPW Facilities during any renewal term, the base rent shall be reset and expressed as an annual amount equal to the greater of (i) the fair market rental value of the leased facility as established pursuant to a prescribed formula; or (ii) 102.5% of the base rent due for the immediately preceding lease year. In addition to base rent, the sublease agreements for the EHPW Facilities provides that the sublessees thereunder shall collectively pay to the applicable Beacon Sublessors special rent during the initial term in the amount of $109,632 per year, payable in advance in twelve equal monthly installments on or before the first day of each month (except for the first special rent payment, which shall be subtracted from the lease inducement fee described below). All five of the sublease agreements for the Beacon Facilities are cross-defaulted. Furthermore, the security deposit for any of the Beacon Facilities may be applied to the payment of any default under any one of the sublease agreements (or any other agreement cross-defaulted with the Beacon Facilities’ sublease agreements). In connection with entering into the sublease agreements for the Beacon Facilities, each Beacon Sublessor and Beacon Sublessee also entered into an operations transfer agreement with respect to the applicable facility, each containing customary terms and conditions relating to the transfer of operations thereof.

On August 1, 2015, the Company entered into a Lease Inducement Fee Agreement with certain affiliates of Beacon Health Management, LLC, pursuant to which the Company paid to certain affiliates of Beacon Health Management, LLC a fee of $0.6 million as a lease inducement for the Beacon Sublessees to enter into the sublease agreements described above and to commence such subleases and transfer operations thereunder. The inducement fee was paid net of certain other fees and costs owed by the affiliates of Beacon Health Management, LLC to the Beacon Sublessors, including the first month of base rent for all of the Beacon Facilities and the first month of special rent pertaining to the EHPW Facilities.

Bentonville

On July 1, 2015, the Company completed the sale of its Bentonville, Arkansas skilled nursing facility consisting of 83 licensed beds for $3.4 million net of customary closing and certain real property apportionments. Net proceeds were used to repay certain mortgage indebtedness.

On August 6, 2015, Riverchase Village ADK, LLC entered into a First Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement ("First Amendment") with Omega, which amended the Riverchase Sale Agreement. Under the First Amendment: (i) the closing date of the Riverchase Sale Agreement was extended to August 31, 2015, subject to the purchaser's right to extend the closing date to September 30, 2015, upon completion of conditions set forth in the agreement; (ii) Omega transferred $0.1 million in additional earnest money to Riverchase Village ADK, LLC, to extend the Riverchase Sale Agreement to August 31, 2015; and (iii) the total purchase price, inclusive of the additional earnest money, increased by $0.1 million to $6.9 million.

Under the First Amendment: (i) the outstanding amount owing under the Contemporary Loan was reduced from $5.0 million to $3.0 million; (ii) restricted assets related to the loan of $2.0 million were used to reduce the outstanding amount owing under the Contemporary Loan, thus eliminating all restricted assets related to the loan; and (iii) the maturity date of the Contemporary Loan was extended from August 20, 2015 to November 20, 2015.
Amendment to Subordinated Convertible Note

On July 30, 2015, the Company and CAM entered into an amendment, effective July 31, 2015, to that certain 8% Subordinated Convertible Note issued by the Company to CAM and due July 31, 2015, with a principal amount as of such date of $4.8 million to, among other things: (i) extend the maturity date with respect to $1.5 million of the principal amount of the note to October 31, 2017; (ii) increase the interest rate from 8.0% to 10.0% per annum; and (iii) increase the conversion price from $3.97 to $4.25 per share.
Additionally, the amendment modifies the Company’s right to prepay the note so that the Company may prepay at any time, without penalty, upon 60 days prior notice, any portion of the outstanding principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest thereon with respect to the note; provided, however, that: (i) the shares of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the note have been registered for resale under the Securities Act; (ii) at any time after the issue date of the note, the volume-weighted average price of the common stock for ten consecutive trading days has equaled or exceeded 150% of the then-current conversion price; and (iii) such prepayment may not be effected prior to July 31, 2016. The amendment also affords each of CAM and the Company the right to cause the redemption of all or any portion of the principal amount of the note upon a change of control (as defined in the note) at a redemption price equal to 115% of the sum of (i) outstanding principal amount to be redeemed, plus (ii) the amount of accrued and unpaid interest thereon.
Pursuant to the amendment, the Company paid to Cantone Research, Inc. (“CRI”), an affiliate of CAM, a fee equal to $37,500. The amendment also amends that certain Consulting Agreement, dated July 2, 2012, between the Company and CRI to: (i) reduce the annual consulting fee payable thereunder to $15,000 and further reduce such fee proportionately upon each repayment, redemption or conversion of the principal amount of the note; and (ii) terminate the Consulting Agreement upon the earlier of October 31, 2017, or the conversion, redemption or prepayment of the entire principal amount of the note.

Cantone, filed with the SEC in August 2014 a Schedule 13D/A reporting beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock in excess of 5% of the total shares outstanding. For a description of certain arrangements with Mr. Cantone and his affiliates, see “Item 13.

(“AdCare”) and its controlled subsidiaries (collectively with AdCare, the “Company” or “we”) own, lease, operate or manage for third-parties skilled nursing and assisted living facilities in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma and South Carolina.
In July 2014, we announced that the Board of Directors had approved a strategic plan to transition the Company to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions, we are in the process of transitioning to third-parties the operations of the Company’s currently owned and operated healthcare facilities, which are principally skilled nursing facilities. In furtherance of this strategic plan, the Company is now focused on the ownership, acquisition and leasing of healthcare related properties.
As of June 30, 2015, we operated or managed fifteen facilities comprised of thirteen skilled nursing facilities, one assisted living facility and one independent living/senior housing facility totaling 1,572 beds. The Company’s facilities provide a range of health care services to patients and residents including skilled nursing and assisted living services, social services, various therapy services, and other rehabilitative and healthcare services for both long-term residents and short-stay patients. As of June 30, 2015, of the fifteen facilities, we owned and operated nine facilities, leased and operated three facilities, and managed three facilities for third-parties.
As of June 30, 2015, we also leased fourteen owned and subleased eight leased skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities and one owned assisted living facility to local third-party operators in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, we entered into certain leasing and operations transfer agreements for facilities located in Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina, which are described below. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company entered into certain leasing and operations transfer agreements for facilities located in Georgia and Ohio (see Note 16 - Subsequent Events, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
The following table provides summary information regarding the number of operational beds at the Company's facilities managed and operated by the Company as of June 30, 2015 (excluding discontinued operations):

Liquidity Overview
 
At June 30, 2015, we had $15.3 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash and investments of $14.4 million. Over the next 12 months, we anticipate both access to and receipt of several sources of liquidity. We routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs. During the remainder of 2015, we anticipate positive cash flow from operations as we complete our transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company and from other working capital changes. At June 30, 2015, we had $146.3 million in indebtedness of which the current portion is $27.6 million. We anticipate our operating cash requirements in 2015 as being less than in 2014 due to the Company's transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. We expect sufficient funds for our operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures at least through the next twelve months. We have been successful in recent years in raising new equity capital and believe, based on recent discussions, that these markets will continue to be available to us for raising capital in 2015 and beyond. We believe our long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness (for a more detailed discussion, see Note 3 - Liquidity and Profitability, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Discontinued Operations
On April 1, 2015, the subleases commenced and operations transferred for four skilled nursing facilities located in Georgia and two skilled nursing facilities located in South Carolina (see Note 7 - Leases, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
On April 29, 2015, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Companions Seller”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Companions Sale Agreement”) with Gracewood Manor, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company (the “Companions Purchaser”), to sell Companions, a 102-bed skilled nursing facility located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The Companions Sale Agreement may be terminated by the Companions Purchaser for any reason before the 30th day of the due diligence period set forth in the agreement. The sale is subject to the completion of satisfactory due diligence, the receipt of required licenses and other state regulatory approvals, and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Pursuant to the Companions Sale Agreement, the sale price of $3.5 million is due to the Companions Seller on the closing date after completion of customary closing conditions. In connection with entering into the Companions Sale Agreement, the Companions Seller and Companions Purchaser entered into an operations transfer agreement to transfer the operations of Companions concurrent with the closing of the asset purchase agreement.
On May 1, 2015, the subleases commenced and operations transferred for seven skilled nursing facilities and one assisted living facility located in Arkansas (see Note 7 - Leases, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

On May 15, 2015, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Bentonville Seller”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Bentonville Sale Agreement”) with Bozeman Development, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the “Bentonville Purchaser”), to sell Bentonville Manor, a 95-bed skilled nursing facility located in Bentonville, Arkansas. Upon satisfaction of the due diligence, the transaction closed on July 1, 2015 and the net sales proceeds of $3.4 million were remitted to the Bentonville Seller. In connection with entering into the Bentonville Sale Agreement, the Bentonville Seller and Bentonville Purchaser entered into an operations transfer agreement to transfer the operations of Bentonville Manor concurrent with the closing of the Bentonville Sale Agreement.

On June 1, 2015, the sublease commenced and operations transferred for one skilled nursing facility located in North Carolina (see Note 7 - Leases, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

On June 11, 2015, Riverchase Village ADK, LLC, a consolidating variable interest entity ("VIE") of the Company, entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Riverchase Sale Agreement") to sell Riverchase, a 105-bed assisted living facility located in Hoover, Alabama. The sale is subject to the completion of satisfactory due diligence, the receipt of required licenses and other state regulatory approvals, and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions (see Note 16 - Subsequent Events, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

For the discontinued operations, the patient care revenue, related cost of services, and facility rental expense prior to the commencement of subleasing are classified in the activities below. For a historical description of the Company's discontinued entities, see Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 11 - Discontinued Operations, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (the "Annual Report").

Primary Performance Indicators
 
We own, operate and manage skilled nursing facilities and assisted living facilities, and deliver our services through wholly owned separate operating subsidiaries. 
We focus on two primary indicators in evaluating the Company's financial performance. Those indicators are facility occupancy and patient mix. Facility occupancy is critical as higher occupancy generally leads to higher revenues. In addition, concentrating on increasing the number of Medicare covered admissions (“the patient mix”) helps in increasing revenues. We include commercial insurance covered admissions that are reimbursed at the same level as those covered by Medicare in our Medicare utilization percentages and analysis.
Average occupancy rates at all of our facilities, excludes discontinued operations and managed facilities, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, were as follows:

On July 31, 2014, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") issued a final rule outlining fiscal year 2015 (which began October 1, 2014) Medicare payment rates for skilled nursing facilities. Based on the changes contained within the rule, CMS estimates that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities will increase by $750 million, or 2.0%, from payments in fiscal year 2014 (which began October 1, 2013), which represents a higher update factor than the 1.3% update finalized for skilled nursing facilities in fiscal year 2014. This estimated increase is attributable to a 2.5% market basket increase, reduced by the 0.5 percentage point multifactor productivity adjustment required by law.
On July 30, 2015, CMS issued a final rule outlining fiscal year 2016 (which begins October 1, 2015) Medicare payment rates for skilled nursing facilities. Based on the changes contained within the rule, CMS estimates that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities will increase by $430 million, or 1.2%, from payments in fiscal year 2015 (which began October 1, 2014), which represents a lower update factor than the 2.0% update finalized for skilled nursing facilities in fiscal year 2015. This estimated increase is attributable to a 2.3% market basket increase, reduced by a 0.6 percentage point forecast error adjustment and further reduced by the 0.5 percentage point multifactor productivity adjustment required by law.
Medicare reimburses our SNFs under a prospective payment system (“PPS”) for certain inpatient covered services. Under PPS, facilities are paid a predetermined amount per patient, per day, based on the anticipated costs of treating patients. Should future changes in PPS include further reduced rates or increased standards for reaching certain reimbursement levels (including as a result of automatic cuts tied to federal deficit cut efforts or otherwise), our Medicare revenues derived from our skilled nursing facilities could be reduced, with a corresponding adverse impact on our financial condition or results of operations. 
We also derive a substantial portion of our consolidated revenue from Medicaid reimbursement, primarily through our skilled nursing business. Medicaid programs are administered by the applicable states and financed by both state and federal funds. Medicaid spending nationally has increased significantly in recent years, becoming an increasingly significant component of state budgets. This, combined with slower state revenue growth and other state budget demands, has led the Federal government to institute measures aimed at both controlling the growth of Medicaid spending and, in some instances, reducing it. 
Historically, adjustments to reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid have had a significant effect on our revenue and results of operations. Recently enacted, pending and proposed legislation and administrative rulemaking at the federal and state levels could have similar effects on our business. Efforts to impose reduced reimbursement rates, greater discounts and more stringent cost controls by government and other payors are expected to continue for the foreseeable future and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, any delay or default by the Federal or state governments in making Medicare and/or Medicaid reimbursement payments could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Average occupancy and reimbursement rates at the Company’s eleven skilled nursing facilities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, were as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies
 
We prepare financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base estimates on historical experience, business knowledge and on various other assumptions that we believe

40


to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time. Actual results may vary from our estimates. These estimates are evaluated by management and revised as circumstances change. 
During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-08, which amends the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. This ASU is applied prospectively and is effective for the Company for the 2015 annual and interim periods.

Patient Care Revenues—Total patient care revenues decreased by $0.6 million, or 3.1%, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The decrease was primarily due to a slight decrease in the skilled nursing facility occupancy rate from 82.2% to 81.5% and a decrease in the skilled nursing facility average Medicare reimbursement rate per patient day from $445.56 to $443.88, or 0.4%.
 
Management RevenuesManagement revenues decreased by $0.05 million, or 15.8%, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The decrease is primarily due to the discontinuance of a management agreement effective as of December 31, 2014.
 
Rental RevenuesRental revenues increased by $3.9 million, or 1,320.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The increase reflects the Company's continuing transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company in 2015 and accordingly a greater amount of rental revenue as entities transition and facilities are leased to third parties.

Cost of ServicesCost of services increased by $0.8 million, or 5.3%, during the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The increase is primarily due to the following: (i) an increase of $0.8 million in bad debt expense; (ii) an increase of $0.3 million in nursing expense; (iii) an increase of $0.2 million in professional liability insurance expense; and (iv) an increase of $0.2 million in pharmacy (Medicare) expense. The increases were offset only by decreases to administration, therapy, and social services of $0.6 million, $0.1 million, and $0.1 million, respectively. Cost of services as a percentage of patient care revenue increased from 82.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2014, to 89.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2015
 
General and AdministrativeGeneral and administrative costs decreased by $1.7 million, or 39.9%, during the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The net decrease is primarily due to the following: (i) a decrease in salaries, wages and employee benefits expense of approximately $1.2 million, partially offset by an increase in contract services expense of approximately $0.2 million; (ii) a decrease of $0.3 million in legal expenses; and (iii) a decrease of approximately $0.1 million in travel and other reimbursable expenses.

Facility Rent ExpenseFacility rent expense increased by $1.0 million, or 109.3%, during the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The increase is primarily due to the treatment of certain facility rent expense as part of continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015, in connection with the Company's continuing transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Prior to the announcement of the transition plan, certain facility rent expense was classified as part of discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2014.

Salary retirement and continuation costsSalary retirement and continuation costs decreased by $1.3 million, or 103.0%, during the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The decrease reflects the Company's continuing transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company wherein staff reductions and related severance packages were recognized in 2014.
  
Depreciation and AmortizationDepreciation and amortization decreased by $0.06 million, or 3.2%, during the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The decrease is primarily due to certain assets becoming fully depreciated in 2014 and the decrease in capital expenditures for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014.
  
Interest Expense, netInterest expense, net decreased by $0.3 million, or 12.4%, during the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The decrease is primarily due to the refinancing of certain loan agreements to more favorable terms and the extinguishment of certain other debt (for further information, see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Patient Care Revenues—Total patient care revenues decreased by $0.9 million, or 2.2%, for the six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared with the same period in 2014. The decrease was primarily due to a slight decrease in the skilled nursing facility occupancy rate from 82.8% to 82.0% and a decrease in the skilled nursing facility average Medicare reimbursement rate per patient day from $451.02 to $449.50, or 0.3%.
Management RevenuesManagement revenues decreased approximately $0.3 million, or 39.7%, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The decrease is primarily due to the discontinuance of managements agreement effective as of March 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014.
Rental RevenuesRental revenues increased by $5.0 million, or 835.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014.   The increase reflects the Company's continuing transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing in 2015 and accordingly a greater amount of rental revenue as entities transition and facilities are leased to third parties.

Cost of ServicesCost of services increased approximately $1.9, or 6.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014. The increase is primarily due to the following: (i) an increase of $0.9 million in bad debt expense; (ii) an increase of $0.3 million in nursing expense; (iii) an increase of $0.2 million in insurance expense; and (iv) an increase of $0.2 million in pharmacy (Medicare) expense. The increases were offset only by a decrease to social services of $0.1 million. Cost of services as a percentage of patient care revenue increased from 81.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2014, to 88.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2015
 
General and AdministrativeGeneral and administrative costs decreased by $3.1 million to $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared with $8.7 million for the same period in 2014. The net decrease is primarily due to the following: (i) a decrease in salaries, wages and employee benefits expense of approximately $2.6 million, partially offset by an increase in contract services expense of approximately $0.7 million; (ii) a decrease of $0.3 million in legal expenses; and (iii) a decrease of approximately $0.2 million in travel and other reimbursable expenses.  
 Facility Rent Expense—Facility rent expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015, increased by approximately $1.1 million to $3.0 million, compared with $1.9 million for the same period in 2014, respectively. The increase is primarily due to the treatment of certain facility rent expense as part of continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015, in connection with the

43


Company's continuing transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Prior to the announcement of the transition plan, certain facility rent expense was classified as part of discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Salary retirement and continuation costsSalary retirement and continuation costs decreased by $1.3 million, or 103.7%, during the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014.  The decrease reflects the Company's continuing transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company wherein staff reductions and related exit packages were recognized in 2014.

Depreciation and AmortizationDepreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2015, decreased by $0.1 million to $3.5 million, compared with $3.6 million for the same period in 2014. The decrease is primarily due to certain assets becoming fully depreciated in 2014 and the decrease in capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared with the same period in 2014

Interest Expense, netInterest expense, net decreased by $0.4 million, or 7.8%, to $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared with $5.2 million for the same period in 2014. The decrease is primarily due to the refinancing of certain loan agreements to more favorable terms and the extinguishment of certain other debt (for further information, see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Loss on Extinguishment of DebtThe Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared with approximately $0.6 million for the same period in 2014. The $0.7 million loss is due to the February 2015 issuance of promissory notes related to the refinancing of certain loan agreements with one of our lenders (for further information, see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Other ExpenseThe Company recognized approximately $0.5 million of other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared with approximately $0.2 million for the same period in 2014. The increase is primarily due to additional costs associated with the Company's continuing transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company and legal fees associated with ongoing litigation matters.
Income Tax ExpenseThe Company recognized income tax expense of approximately $0.02 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared with approximately $0.01 million for the same period in 2014. The increase of $0.01 million is primarily due to the submission of additional filing extensions related to the 2014 tax year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

At June 30, 2015, we had $15.3 million in cash and cash equivalents as well as restricted cash and investments of $14.4 million. Over the next 12 months, we anticipate both access to and receipt of several sources of liquidity.

At June 30, 2015, we had one facility, three office buildings and one VIE held for sale that we anticipate selling in 2015. We expect that the cash proceeds and the release of restricted cash on the sale of the VIE and the sale of the one facility will be approximately equivalent to the related debt obligations. We expect that the cash proceeds from the sale of the office buildings will exceed related debt obligations by approximately $0.6 million.

We routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced short-term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional long-term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs.

During the remainder of 2015, we anticipate net proceeds of approximately $1.6 million on refinancing of existing debt, primarily in the fourth quarter of 2015, subject to approval by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development.

We maintain two revolving lines of credit for which we have limited remaining capacity. All balances on these lines of credit are expected to be repaid in 2015. Given the Company's ongoing transition out of healthcare operations, we do not anticipate any additional draws on these credit lines.

On April 13, 2015, we issued and sold 575,000 shares of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, no par value per share and liquidation preference of $25.00 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), in a “best efforts” registered public offering for

44


a public offering price of $25.75 per share. In connection therewith, we received net proceeds of $13.8 million, after the payment of underwriting commissions and discounts and other offering expenses payable by the Company.

On June 2, 2015, we issued and sold 588,235 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in a “best efforts” registered public offering for a public offering price of $25.50 per share. In connection therewith, we received net proceeds of approximately $14.2 million after the payment of underwriting commissions and discounts and other offering expenses payable by the Company (see Note 11 - Dividends and Equity, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

On July 21, 2015, we entered into separate at market issuance sales agreements with two sales agents, pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, up to 800,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock through an “at the market” offering program (see Note 16 - Subsequent Events, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

On July 30, 2015, we entered into an amendment, effective July 31, 2015, to a certain 8% subordinated convertible note issued by the Company and due July 31, 2015, with a then-current principal amount of $4,847,000, to, among other things: (i) extend the maturity date of such note with respect to $1,500,000 of its principal amount to October 31, 2017; (ii) increase the interest rate from 8.0% to 10.0% per annum; and (iii) increase the conversion price from $3.97 to $4.25 per share (see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt, Note 15 - Related Party Transactions and Note 16 - Subsequent Events, each of which is located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

Other liquidity sources include to a lesser extent, the proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.

Cash Requirements

At June 30, 2015, we had $146.3 million in indebtedness of which the current portion was $27.6 million. This current portion is comprised of: (i) convertible debt of approximately $4.5 million; (ii) debt of held for sale entities of approximately $15.3 million, which is primarily senior debt - bond and mortgage indebtedness; and (iii) remaining debt of approximately $7.8 million which includes revolver debt, senior debt - bonds, and senior debt - mortgage indebtedness (for a complete debt listing and credit facility detail, see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

The convertible debt includes the 8% subordinated convertible note which was amended effective July 31, 2015 and described under "-Sources of Liquidity" (see Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt, Note 15 - Related Party Transactions and Note 16 - Subsequent Events, each of which is located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

The current debt maturing in 2015 for all other debt approximates $7.8 million. As indicated previously, we routinely have ongoing discussions with existing and potential new lenders to refinance current debt on a longer term basis and, in recent periods, have refinanced shorter term acquisition debt, including seller notes, with traditional longer term mortgage notes, some of which have been executed under government guaranteed lending programs.

We anticipate net principal disbursements of approximately $9.8 million over the next twelve months which reflect the offset of anticipated proceeds on refinancing of approximately $2.5 million. We anticipate operating cash requirements in 2015 as being less than in 2014 due to the Company's transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company. Based on the described sources of liquidity and related cash requirements, we expect sufficient funds for its operations, scheduled debt service, and capital expenditures at least through the next twelve months. On a longer term basis, at June 30, 2015, we have approximately $64.2 million of debt maturities due over the next two-year period, ending June 30, 2017, excluding convertible notes which are convertible into shares of common stock. We have been successful in recent years in raising new equity capital and believe, based on recent discussions, that these markets will continue to be available to us for raising capital in 2015 and beyond. We believe the Company's long-term liquidity needs will be satisfied by these same sources, as well as borrowings as required to refinance indebtedness.

In order to satisfy the Company's capital needs, we seek to:(i) improve operating results through a series of leasing and subleasing transactions with favorable terms and consistent and predictable cash flow; (ii) expand borrowing arrangements with certain lenders; (iii) refinance current debt where possible to obtain more favorable terms; and (iv) raise capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities on terms favorable to the Company. We anticipate that these actions, if successfully executed, will provide the opportunity to maintain liquidity on a short-and-long term basis, thereby permitting the Company to meet our operating and financing obligations for the next twelve months. However, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful or that anticipated operating results or the transition of the Company to primarily a property holding and leasing company will be achieved. We currently have limited borrowing availability under our existing revolving credit facilities.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2015
 
Net cash used by operating activities—continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015, was approximately $6.4 million, consisting primarily of our loss from operations less changes in working capital, and noncash charges (primarily depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, rent expense in excess of cash paid, and amortization of debt discounts and related deferred financing costs) all primarily the result of routine operating activity. Net cash used in operating activities—discontinued operations was approximately $2.3 million
Net cash used by investing activities—continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015, was approximately $4.9 million. This is primarily the result of a increase in restricted cash deposits of approximately $4.2 million and capital expenditures of approximately $0.7 million. Net cash used in investing activities—discontinued operations was approximately $1.4 million related to restricted cash changes and capital expenditures.
Net cash provided by financing activities—continuing operations was approximately $19.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. This is primarily the result of cash proceeds received from preferred stock issuances and additional debt borrowings. These proceeds were offset primarily by repayments of existing debt obligations and payments of dividends. Net cash used in financing activities—discontinued operations was $0.01 million.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2014
 
Net cash used in operating activities—continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014, was $11.2 million, consisting primarily of our loss from operations less changes in working capital, and noncash charges (primarily depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, rent expense in excess of cash paid, and amortization of debt discounts and related deferred financing costs) all primarily the result of routine operating activity. Net cash provided by operating activities—discontinued operations was approximately $2.7 million. 
Net cash provided by investing activities—continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014, was approximately $5.6 million. This is primarily the result of a decrease in restricted cash deposits of approximately $7.3 million while offset by capital expenditures of approximately $1.6 million. Net cash used in investing activities—discontinued operations was approximately $1.6 million related to restricted cash changes and capital expenditures.
Net cash used in financing activities—continuing operations was approximately $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014.  This is primarily the result of cash proceeds received from additional debt borrowings, partially offset by repayments of existing debt obligations and payments of preferred stock dividends. Net cash used in financing activities—discontinued operations was $0.03 million.
Notes Payable and Other Debt

46



For information regarding the Company's debt financings, please refer to Note 9 - Notes Payable and Other Debt, located in Part I, Item 1., Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Receivables
 
The Company’s operations could be adversely affected if we experience significant delays in: (i) reimbursement from Medicare, Medicaid or other third-party revenue sources; or (ii) collection of rent from third-party operators. As the Company continues its transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company, our operations will become less dependent upon patient care reimbursements and increasingly dependent upon the collection of rent. The Company’s future liquidity will continue to be dependent upon the relative amounts of current assets (principally cash and patient accounts receivable) and current liabilities (principally accounts payable and accrued expenses). In that regard, accounts receivable can have a significant impact on our liquidity.
Accounts receivable totaled $16.7 million at June 30, 2015, compared to $24.3 million at December 31, 2014, representing approximately 53 and 44 days of revenue in accounts receivable as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
The allowance for doubtful accounts was $10.9 million and $6.7 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. We continually evaluate the adequacy of our bad debt reserves based on patient mix trends, aging of older balances, payment terms and delays with regard to third-party payors, as well as other factors. We continue to evaluate and implement additional processes to strengthen our collection efforts and reduce the incidence of uncollectible accounts.
Inflation

We have historically derived a substantial portion of our revenue from the Medicare program. We also derive revenue from state Medicaid and similar reimbursement programs. Payments under these programs generally provide for reimbursement levels that are adjusted for inflation annually based upon the state’s fiscal year for the Medicaid programs and in each October for the Medicare program. These adjustments may not continue in the future, and even if received, such adjustments may not reflect the actual increase in our costs for providing healthcare services. 
Labor and supply expenses make up a substantial portion of our cost of services. Those expenses can be subject to increase in periods of rising inflation and when labor shortages occur in the marketplace. To date, we have generally been able to implement cost control measures or obtain increases in reimbursement sufficient to offset increases in these expenses. We may not be successful in offsetting future cost increases.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
There were $3.8 million of outstanding letters of credit at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. For the period ended June 30, 2015, the outstanding letter of credit were fully collateralized with restricted cash deposits. For the period ended December 31, 2014, the outstanding letters of credit were fully collateralized with accounts receivable.

Operating Leases
We lease a total of eleven skilled nursing facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, most of which have initial lease terms of ten to twelve years with rent escalation clauses and provisions for payments by the Company of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs; three of the skilled nursing facilities that are leased are also operated by the Company. We also lease certain office space with similar provisions as the aforementioned skilled nursing facility leases.
Eight of the Company's skilled nursing facilities are operated under a single master indivisible lease arrangement, dated August 1, 2010, with William M. Foster as landlord (the "Prime Lease"). The lease has a term of ten years into 2020. Under the Prime Lease, a breach at a single facility could subject one or more of the other facilities covered by the same master lease to the same default risk. Failure to comply with regulations or governmental authorities, such as Medicaid and Medicare provider requirements, is a default under the Prime Lease. In addition, other potential defaults related to an individual facility may cause a default of the entire Prime Lease. With an indivisible lease, it is difficult to restructure the composition of the portfolio or economic terms of the lease without the consent of the landlord.
As previously disclosed, on May 18, 2015, the landlord delivered to the Company a notice which alleges that the Company is in default under the Prime Lease for, among other reasons, subleasing the facilities to third-party operators without the landlord’s written consent and reserves the landlord’s right to terminate the Prime Lease and/or pursue any other remedy available at law or

47


in equity. The Company does not believe that it is in default under the Prime Lease and is in discussions with the landlord regarding the matter.
Two of the Company's facilities are operated under a single indivisible lease; therefore, a breach at a single facility could subject the second facility to the same default risk. The lease has an initial term of twelve years into 2022 and two optional ten-year renewal terms, and includes covenants and restrictions. We are required to make minimum capital expenditures of $375 per licensed bed per lease year at each facility which amounts to $0.1 million per year for both facilities. As of June 30, 2015, we are in compliance with all financial and administrative covenants of this lease agreement.
Future minimum lease payments for each of the next five years ending December 31, are as follows:

Leased and Subleased Facilities to Third-Party Operators
In connection with the Company's strategic plan to transition to a healthcare property holding and leasing company, twenty-three facilities (fifteen owned by us and eight leased to us) are leased or subleased on a triple net basis, meaning that the lessee (i.e., the new third-party operator of the property) is obligated under the lease or sublease, as applicable, for all liabilities of the property in respect to insurance, taxes and facility maintenance, as well as the lease or sublease payments, as applicable.

Arkansas Leases

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations
 
Due to the material amount of non-cash related items included in the Company’s results of operations, we have developed an Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations”)  metric which provides management with a clearer view of operational uses of cash (see the table below). 
“Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations” is a measure of operating performance that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. We define “Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations” as net income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (including amortization of non-cash stock-based compensation), loss on extinguishment of debt, and other non-routine adjustments.  We have provided below supplemental financial disclosure for these measures, including the most directly comparable GAAP measure (Net Loss) and an associated reconciliation.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations or cash flows provided by, or used in, operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. 
We believe Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance, results of operations and financial position for the following reasons: 
It is helpful in identifying trends in the Company’s day-to-day performance because the items excluded have little or no significance to the Company’s day-to-day operations;
It provides an assessment of controllable expenses and afford management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieve optimal financial performance; and
It provides data that assists management determine whether or not adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.

otherwise cure any such exception or other matter as to which Purchaser so objects, Seller is unable or unwilling to take such actions as may be required to cure such objections, Seller shall give Purchaser notice thereof; it being understood and agreed that the failure of Seller to give such notice (“Seller’s Notice”) within three (3) Business Days after its receipt of Purchaser’s notice of objection shall be deemed an election by Seller not to remedy such matters. If Seller shall be unable or unwilling to remove any title defects to which Purchaser has so objected, Purchaser shall elect either (a) to terminate this Agreement (in whole but not in part) or (b) to proceed to Closing notwithstanding such title defect without any abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price on account thereof.

The failure of Purchaser to give such notice shall be deemed an election by Purchaser to proceed to Closing in accordance with clause (b) above. If Purchaser terminates this Agreement in accordance with this Section 3.3, Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit to Purchaser and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except with respect to the Surviving Obligations.
3.4    Confidentiality, Etc. Purchaser shall not disclose or otherwise use any data or other information concerning the Facility for any purpose other than for evaluating the Facility in the course of its due diligence as provided herein, and Purchaser shall keep all such data and information strictly confidential. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Purchaser may disclose (i) such data and information by furnishing copies thereof to third party consultants in the normal course of Purchaser’s due diligence provided that such consultants agree to be abide bound the terms and conditions of this Section 3.4 and/or (ii) the terms of this Agreement as may be required for any regulatory filings. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against any loss, claim, damage or expense which Seller may incur as a result of any breach by Purchaser or any third party of the terms and conditions of this Section 3.4. This Section 3.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
3.5    Return of Materials. If the Closing does not take place as herein contemplated for any reason, Purchaser shall promptly return all materials delivered to it by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, and Seller shall also deliver to Purchaser copies of any reports, surveys, data or other information obtained by Purchaser in connection with its diligence hereunder without any representation or warranty whatsoever.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the undersigned hereby agree that the disposition of the Earnest Money shall be solely governed by this Escrow Agreement.
Upon written notification from Purchaser and Seller that the contemplated sale is to be consummated, or in the alternative, that the contemplated sale shall not take place, Escrow Agent shall deliver the Earnest Money as jointly instructed by the parties, assuming said written instructions are mutually compatible.

Escrow Agent shall not incur any liability for any loss or fund due to bank or other depository failure, suspension or cessation of business or any action or inaction on the part of the bank or other depository. Escrow Agent is specifically authorized to refuse to act except upon the written instructions of Purchaser and Seller.
Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including without limitation, cost of investigation and attorneys’ fees and disbursements which may be imposed upon or incurred by Escrow Agent in connection with its serving as Escrow Agent hereunder.
If Purchaser should subsequently deliver any additional Earnest Money to Escrow Agent in connection with the sale contemplated by this Escrow Agreement, Escrow Agent shall hold such additional Earnest Money under the terms of this Escrow Agreement, unless instructed otherwise in writing by the parties.

No. ____
Issuance Date: April 30, 2015    Original Principal Amount: U.S.

This 10% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTE (including all 10% Convertible Subordinated Notes issued in transfer or replacement hereof, this “Note”) is one of a series of 10% Convertible Subordinated Notes originally issued by AdCare Health Systems, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the “Company”), as contemplated by the Company’s Confidential Offering Memorandum dated March 24, 2015, and pursuant to Subscription Agreements relating thereto between the Company and the Persons signatory thereto (collectively, the “Notes”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 24.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company hereby promises to pay to ____________ or his, her or its registered assigns (the “Holder”) the amount set out above as the Original Principal Amount (as reduced pursuant to the terms of this Note by redemption, conversion or otherwise, the “Principal”) when due, whether upon the Maturity Date, acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms of this Note) and to pay interest on any outstanding Principal (“Interest”) at the applicable interest rate from the date set forth above as the Issuance Date (the “Issuance Date”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether upon an Interest Payment Date, acceleration, conversion, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms of this Note).

1.Payments of Principal. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest thereon.
2.    Interest; Interest Rate; Default Interest Rate. Interest on this Note shall: (i) accrue daily on the outstanding Principal commencing on the Issuance Date, (ii) be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, and (iii) be payable in cash in arrears on each of March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year during which this Note remains outstanding and the Maturity Date (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), with the first Interest Payment Date being, notwithstanding the foregoing, June 30, 2015. Interest hereunder shall be paid to the record holder of this Note. Absent an Event of Default (as defined in Section 4), Interest on the outstanding

870353_2


Principal shall accrue at the rate of 10.00% per annum (the “Interest Rate”). During the existence and continuance of an Event of Default, the outstanding Principal shall accrue Interest at a rate of 14.00% per annum (the “Default Rate”); provided, however, that if such Event of Default is subsequently cured, then the rate of Interest on this Note will be reduced from the Default Rate to the Interest Rate on the date of such cure.
3.    Conversion of Notes. This Note shall be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”), on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 3 are referred to herein collectively as the “Conversion Shares.”
(a)    Conversion Right. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(d), the Holder shall be entitled to convert any Conversion Amount (as defined in Section 3(b)(i)) into fully paid and nonassessable Conversion Shares in accordance with Section 3(c), at the Conversion Rate (as defined in Section 3(b)). The Company shall not issue any fractional Conversion Shares upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fractional Conversion Share, then the Company shall round such fractional Conversion Share to the nearest whole Conversion Share. The Company shall pay any and all expenses of issuance, including transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Conversion Shares.
(b)    Conversion Rate. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price (the “Conversion Rate”).
(i)    Conversion Amount” means the sum of (A) the amount of outstanding Principal to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which this determination is made, plus (B) the amount of accrued and unpaid Interest with respect to such Principal.
(ii)    Conversion Price” is $4.25.
(c)    Mechanics of Conversion.
(i)    Optional Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into Conversion Shares on any date (a “Conversion Date”), the Holder shall (A) transmit by facsimile (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or before 5:00 p.m., Atlanta Time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached as Exhibit I (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company and (B) surrender this Note to a common carrier for delivery to the Company as soon as practicable on or following such date (or provide an indemnification undertaking acceptable to the Company with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction). On or before the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall: (x) provided that (1) the Transfer Agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company’s (“DTC”) Fast Automated

2



Securities Transfer Program and (2) the Registration Condition is satisfied, credit such aggregate number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program or if the Registration Condition is not satisfied, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled, provided, however, that such certificate shall bear the following restrictive legend:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD UNLESS A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS SHALL HAVE BECOME EFFECTIVE WITH REGARD THERETO, OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS AVAILABLE IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH OFFER OR SALE.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any Conversion Shares until this Note is physically surrendered to the Company, or the Holder notifies the Company that this Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and provides an indemnification undertaking acceptable to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection therewith. If the outstanding Principal of this Note is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than four (4) Trading Days after receipt of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 14(d)) representing the outstanding Principal not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Conversion Shares.
(ii)    Company’s Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail to issue a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Conversion Shares which the Company is obligated to issue to the Holder upon conversion of any Conversion Amount on or prior to the date which is three (3) Trading Days after the Company’s receipt of the facsimile (or otherwise delivered) copy of a Conversion Notice, then the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Conversion Notice with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Note that has not been converted pursuant to such Conversion Notice; provided that the voiding of a Conversion Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued before the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 3(c)(ii) or otherwise. In addition to the foregoing, if within three (3) Trading Days after the

3



Company’s receipt of the facsimile (or otherwise delivered) copy of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Company is obligated to issue to the Holder upon conversion of any Conversion Amount or on any date of the Company’s obligation to deliver Conversion Shares as contemplated pursuant to clause (y) below, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (x) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out of pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Common Stock) shall terminate and the applicable portion of the Note will be deemed to have been converted, or (y) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (I) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (II) the Closing Bid Price on the Conversion Date.
(iii)    Registration; Book-Entry. The Company shall maintain a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Holders of the Notes and the principal amount of the Notes held by such Holders (the “Registered Notes”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Company and the Holders of the Notes shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes, including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Subject to compliance with any requirements of applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations and the provisions of Section 13: (A) a Holder may assign or sell a Registered Note in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register; and (B) upon its receipt of a request to assign or sell all or part of any Registered Note by the Holder, the Company shall record the information contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate principal amount as the principal amount of the surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to Section 14.
(iv)    Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event that the Company receives a Conversion Notice from more than one Holder of the Notes for the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such portions of the Notes submitted for conversion, the Company, subject to Section 3(d), shall convert from each Holder of the Notes electing to have Notes converted on such date a pro rata amount of such Holder’s portion of such Holder’s Notes submitted for conversion based on the principal amount of Notes submitted for conversion on such date by such Holder relative to the aggregate principal amount of all the Notes submitted for conversion on such date. In the event of a dispute as to the number of Conversion Shares issuable to the Holder in

4



connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Conversion Shares not in dispute and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 19.
(v)    Company Optional Redemption. If (i) at any time after the Issuance Date the arithmetic average of the Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock for any ten (10) consecutive Trading Days equals or exceeds 125% of the Conversion Price (subject to appropriate adjustments pursuant to Section 6) and (ii) the Resale Condition has been satisfied as of the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date (as defined below), then the Company shall have the right, at its option and sole discretion, and without penalty, to redeem all or any portion of the outstanding Principal under this Note (the “Company Optional Redemption Amount”) as designated in the Company Optional Redemption Notice (as defined below) (a “Company Optional Redemption”). The portion of this Note subject to redemption under this Section shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the outstanding Principal being redeemed plus (ii) any accrued and unpaid Interest on such outstanding Principal (the “Company Optional Redemption Price”). The Company may exercise its right to require redemption under this Section by delivering a written notice by facsimile or overnight courier to the Holder (the “Company Optional Redemption Notice,” and the date the Company sends such notice is referred to as the “Company Optional Redemption Notice Date”). Each Company Optional Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable unless revocation by the Company is consented to by the Holder in writing. The Company Optional Redemption Notice shall state (x) the date on which the Company Optional Redemption shall occur (the “Company Optional Redemption Date”), which date shall not be prior to March 31, 2016, and shall not be less than sixty (60) days following the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date, and (y) the aggregate outstanding Principal of this Note which the Company has elected to be subject to Company Optional Redemption from the Holder pursuant to this Section 3(c)(v) on the Company Optional Redemption Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(c)(v), until the Company Optional Redemption Price is paid, in full, the Company Optional Redemption Amount may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holders into Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 3. If the Holder so elects, any or all of the Principal converted by the Holder after the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date shall reduce the Company Optional Redemption Amount of this Note required to be redeemed on the Company Optional Redemption Date. Redemptions made pursuant to this Section 3(c)(v) shall be made in accordance with Section 9.
(d)    Limitations on Conversions; Beneficial Ownership.
(i)    Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, the Company shall not effect any conversion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note pursuant to Section 3, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates) would (A) beneficially own in excess of 4.9% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion, or (B) control in excess of the Maximum Percentage of the total voting power of the Company’s securities outstanding

5



immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (1) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and (2) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Notes) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 3(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For purposes of this Section 3(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Form 8-K or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.9% specified in such notice; provided that (1) any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (2) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and not to any other Holder of Notes.
(ii)    The Company shall not be obligated to issue any Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note if the issuance of such shares would exceed the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue upon conversion of the Notes without breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulations of the Principal Market or any other Eligible Market on which the Conversion Stock is then quoted or listed (the “Exchange Cap”), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company obtains the approval of its shareholders as required by the applicable rules of the Principal Market (or such Eligible Market, as applicable) for issuances of Common Stock in excess of such amount. Unless such approval is obtained, no Holder of the Notes shall be issued in the aggregate upon conversion of Notes, Conversion Shares in an amount greater than the product of the Exchange Cap multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the aggregate Original Principal Amount of the Notes purchased by such Holder of outstanding Notes and the denominator of which is the sum of the aggregate Original Principal Amount of the Notes purchased by all Holders of outstanding Notes (with respect to each Holder, the “Exchange Cap Allocation”). In the event that any Holder shall

6



sell or otherwise transfer any of such Holder’s Notes, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Holder’s Exchange Cap Allocation, and the restrictions of the prior sentence shall apply to such transferee with respect to the portion of the Exchange Cap Allocation allocated to such transferee. In the event that any Holder of Notes shall convert all of such Holder’s Notes into a number of Conversion Shares which, in the aggregate, is less than such Holder’s Exchange Cap Allocation, then the difference between such Holder’s Exchange Cap Allocation and the number of Conversion Shares actually issued to such Holder shall be allocated to the respective Exchange Cap Allocations of the remaining Holders of Notes on a pro rata basis in proportion to the aggregate Outstanding Principal amount of the Notes then held by each such Holder.
(iii)    The Company shall not be obligated to issue any Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note until the Principal Market has approved the additional listing of such Conversion Shares. The Company shall apply for such approval as soon as practicable after the Issuance Date.
4.    Rights Upon Event of Default.
(a)    Event of Default. An Event of Default (as defined below) may only be waived by the written consent of the Holder. Unless waived pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, each of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default”:
(i)    the Company’s failure to pay to the Holder any amount of Principal or Interest by the seventh (7th) Business Day following the date when due under this Note (including, without limitation, the Company’s failure to pay any redemption amounts hereunder);
(ii)    the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, pursuant to or within the meaning of Title 11, U.S. Code, or any similar Federal, foreign or state law for the relief of debtors (collectively, “Bankruptcy Law”), (A) commences a voluntary case, (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (C) consents to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official (a “Custodian”), (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or (E) admits in writing that it is generally unable to pay its debts as they become due; or
(iii)    a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that (A) is for relief against the Company or any of its subsidiaries in an involuntary case, (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or (C) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
(b)    Redemption Right. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to this Note, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days deliver written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier (an “Event of Default Notice”) to the Holder. Subject to Section 11(c), at any time after the earlier of the Holder’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice and the Holder becoming aware of an Event of Default, the Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (the

7



Event of Default Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate the Conversion Amount of this Note the Holder is electing to require the Company to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall be redeemed by the Company at a price equal to the Conversion Amount to be redeemed as specified in the Event of Default Redemption Notice (the “Event of Default Redemption Price”). Redemptions required by this Section 4(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 and Section 11(c). To the extent redemptions required by this Section 4(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments.
5.    Rights Upon Change of Control.
(a)No sooner than twenty (20) days nor later than ten (10) days prior to the consummation of a Change of Control, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier to the Holder (a “Change of Control Notice”). At any time during the period commencing on the earlier to occur of (i) any definitive written agreement by the Company, which upon consummation of the transaction contemplated thereby would reasonably be expected to result in a Change of Control, and (ii) the Holder’s receipt of a Change of Control Notice and ending twenty (20) Trading Days after the date of the consummation of such Change of Control, the Required Holders may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of this Note (and a pro rata portion of all of the other Notes) by delivering written notice thereof (“Holders Change of Control Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Holders Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the Conversion Amount of this Note (and the pro rata portion of all of the other Notes) that the Required Holders are electing to require the Company to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5(a) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the Conversion Amount to be redeemed as specified in the Holders Change of Control Redemption Notice (the “Holders Change of Control Redemption Price”).
(b)In addition, at any time during the period commencing on the earlier to occur of (i) any definitive written agreement by the Company, which upon consummation of the transaction contemplated thereby would reasonably be expected to result in a Change of Control, and (ii) the Holder’s receipt of a Change of Control Notice and ending twenty (20) Trading Days after the date of the consummation of such Change of Control, the Company may redeem all or any portion of this Note (and a pro rata portion of all of the other Notes) by delivering written notice thereof (“Company Change of Control Redemption Notice”) to the Holder, which Company Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the Conversion Amount of this Note (and the pro rata portion of all of the other Notes) that the Company is electing to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5(b) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the Conversion Amount to be redeemed as specified in the Company Change of Control Redemption Notice (the “Company Change of Control Redemption Price”).
(c)Redemptions required by Section 5(a) or Section 5(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 and Section 11(c) and shall have priority to payments to shareholders in connection with a Change of Control. To the extent redemptions required by Section 5(a) or Section 5(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be

8



prepayments of the Notes by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but subject to Section 3(d): (i) until the Holders Change of Control Redemption Price is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under Section 5(a) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3 and, if so converted, the Holder shall not be entitled to receive the Holders Change of Control Redemption Price with respect to such Conversion Amount; and (ii) until the Company Change of Control Redemption Price is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under Section 5(b) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3 and, if so converted, the Holder shall not be entitled to receive the Company Change of Control Redemption Price with respect to such Conversion Amount.
6.    Conversion Price Adjustments.
(a)    [Intentionally Omitted].
(b)    Adjustment of Conversion Price Upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date subdivides (by any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) outstanding shares of its Common Stock into a greater number of shares, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) outstanding shares of its Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased.
7.    Noncircumvention. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, 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 of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Note.
8.    Reservation of Authorized Shares.
(a)    Reservation. The Company shall initially reserve out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock a number of Conversion Shares for each of the Notes equal to 120% of the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount of each such Note as of the Issuance Date (assuming the Notes are convertible on such date). So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company shall take all action reasonably necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Notes, 120% of the number of the Conversion Shares as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion of all of the Notes then outstanding; provided that at no time shall the number of Conversion Shares so reserved be less than the number of Conversion Shares required to be reserved by the previous sentence (without regard to any limitations on conversions) (the “Required Reserve Amount”). The initial number of Conversion Shares reserved for conversions of the Notes and each increase in the number of Conversion Shares so reserved shall be allocated pro rata among

9



the Holders of the Notes based on the Original Principal Amount of the Notes purchased by each Holder or increase in the number of reserved Conversion Shares, as the case may be (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that the initial Holder of any Notes shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Holder’s Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Holder’s Authorized Share Allocation. Any Conversion Shares reserved and allocated to any Person that ceases to hold any Notes shall be allocated to the remaining Holders of the Notes, pro rata based on the Principal amount of the Notes then held by such Holders.
(b)    Insufficient Authorized Shares. If at any time while any of the Notes remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Notes at least a number of Conversion Shares equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall either (i) hold a meeting of its shareholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock or (ii) obtain such approval by written consent and take all action necessary to rectify the Authorized Share Failure. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder with a proxy statement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause the Company’s Board of Directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal. In connection with such written consent, the Company shall provide each shareholder with an information statement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause the Company’s Board of Directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal.
9.    Redemptions.
(a)    Mechanics. The Company shall deliver the applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Holder within five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s Event of Default Redemption Notice. If the Required Holders have submitted a Holders Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5(a), then the Company shall deliver the applicable Holders Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder (i) concurrently with the consummation of such Change of Control if such notice is received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the consummation of such Change of Control and (ii) within five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of such notice otherwise. If the Company has submitted a Company Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5(b), then the Company shall deliver the applicable Company Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder within five (5) Business Days after the consummation of such Change of Control. In the event of a redemption of a Conversion Amount which is less than all of the outstanding Principal of this Note, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 14(d)) representing the outstanding Principal which has not been redeemed. In the

10



event that the Company does not pay the applicable Redemption Price to the Holder within the time period required, at any time thereafter and until the Company pays such unpaid Redemption Price in full, the Holder shall have the option, in lieu of redemption, to require the Company to promptly return to the Holder all or any portion of this Note representing the Conversion Amount that was submitted for redemption and for which the applicable Redemption Price has not been paid. Upon the Company’s receipt of such notice, (A) the applicable Redemption Notice shall be null and void with respect to such Conversion Amount, (B) the Company shall immediately return this Note, or issue a new Note (in accordance with Section 14(d)) to the Holder representing such Conversion Amount to be redeemed and (C) the Conversion Price of this Note or such new Notes shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price as in effect on the date on which the applicable Redemption Notice is voided.
(b)    Redemption by Other Holders. If the Company receives a Redemption Notice and one or more Other Redemption Notices, during the seven (7) Business Day period beginning on and including the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s Redemption Notice and ending on and including the date which is three (3) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s Redemption Notice and the Company is unable to redeem all amounts designated in such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received during such seven (7) Business Day period, then the Company shall redeem a pro rata amount from each Holder of the Notes (including the Holder) based on the principal amount of the Notes submitted for redemption pursuant to such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received by the Company during such seven (7) Business Day period.
10.    Voting Rights. This Note shall not entitle the Holder to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote, to receive dividends and other distributions, or to receive any notice of, or to attend, meetings of shareholders or any other proceedings of the Company, unless and to the extent converted into Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms hereof.
11.    Subordination.
(a)    Subordination to Senior Debt. The Company, for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and the Holder by acceptance of this Note, likewise covenants and agrees that the payment of the Principal of, Interest on and all other amounts with respect to this Note is subordinated in right of payment to the payment of all existing and future Senior Debt (as defined below) of the Company. “Senior Debt” means the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on, and all other amounts with respect to, all Indebtedness of the Company, whether outstanding on the date of issuance of this Note or any of the other Notes or thereafter created, incurred or assumed, unless, in the agreement or instrument creating or evidencing such Indebtedness or pursuant to which the same is outstanding, it is provided that such Indebtedness is subordinated to Senior Debt of the Company or that such Indebtedness is not superior in right of payment to this Note; provided, however, that “Senior Debt” shall not to be deemed to include any Indebtedness of the Company to any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates.
(b)    Rank; Future Subordinated Debt. This Note will rank pari passu with all of the other Notes and with all existing and future subordinated debt of the Company, including, without

11



limitation, the Company’s outstanding Subordinated Convertible Notes due April 30, 2017 and July 31, 2015.
(c)    Default. Upon any default of the Company in the payment of principal of or interest on Senior Debt, whether at maturity or otherwise, no payment may be made with respect to the Principal of or Interest on this Note or in respect of any redemption, retirement, purchase or other acquisition of this Note, unless and until such default has been cured or waived or has ceased. Upon any other default with respect to any Senior Debt permitting the holders thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof and upon written notice thereof given to the Company, no payment may be made with respect to the Principal of or Interest on this Note or in respect of any redemption, retirement, purchase or other acquisition of this Note for a period terminating upon the cure, waiver or cessation of such default.
(d)    Liquidation; Dissolution, Etc. Upon any payment or distribution of the assets of the Company to creditors upon any dissolution, total or partial liquidation or reorganization of or similar proceeding relating to the Company, the holders of Senior Debt will be entitled to receive payment in full before the Holder is entitled to receive any payment in respect of this Note.
12.    Vote to Issue, or Change the Terms of, Notes. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Note may only be amended by the written consent of the Holder and the Company.
13.    Transfer. This Note has been issued subject to certain investment representations of the Holder set forth in the Holder’s Subscription Agreement.

The Holder understands and acknowledges that:

(b)    without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any sale of the Securities made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of the Securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the Person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require compliance with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and
(c)    neither the Company nor any other Person is under any obligation to register the Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder, except as required under the Registration Rights Agreement.

12



Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Securities may be pledged in connection with a bona fide margin account or other loan or financing arrangement secured by the Securities and the pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and the Holder in effecting a pledge of Securities shall not be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Note, including, without limitation, this Section 13; provided, that in order to make any sale, transfer or assignment of Securities, the Holder and the Holder’s pledgee makes the disposition in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the Securities Act.
14.    Reissuance of this Note.

(b)    Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of an indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company acceptable to the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 14(d)) representing the outstanding Principal.
(c)    Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Note or Notes (in accordance with Section 14(d) and in Principal amounts of at least $10,000) representing in the aggregate the outstanding Principal of this Note, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.
(d)    Issuance of New Notes. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, such new Note: (i) shall be of like tenor with this Note; (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Note, the Principal remaining outstanding (or in the case of a new Note being issued pursuant to Section 14(a) or Section 14(c), the Principal designated by the Holder which, when added to the Principal represented by the other new Notes issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the Principal remaining outstanding under this Note immediately prior to such issuance of new Notes); (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Note, which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Note; (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Note; and (v) shall represent accrued and unpaid Interest on the Principal from the Issuance Date.

13



provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
16.    Payment of Collection, Enforcement and Other Costs.

17.    Construction; Headings. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the Holder and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof.

18.    Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

Such investment bank’s, financial advisor’s or accountant’s determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error. Each of the Company and the Holder

Exhibit 10.101

$1,200,000.00                                    Atlanta, Georgia
        As of July 17, 2015


PROMISSORY NOTE


FOR VALUE RECEIVED, HIGHLANDS ARKANSAS HOLDINGS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (hereinafter referred to as “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of ADCARE HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC., a Georgia corporation (hereinafter, together with any other holder hereof, referred to as “Holder”), or to such other party or parties as Holder from may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of ONE MILLION TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($1,200,000.00), together with simple interest accruing on the unpaid balance of this Note at a rate equal to twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”).

The principal sum of this Note together with all accrued and unpaid interest is due and payable on August 13, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”).

The principal amount of the Note may be prepaid in whole from time to time and at any time without premium or penalty.

If the payment obligation under this Note is not paid when due, the Holder shall provide written notice of default to the Maker at the address written above, and Maker will have five (5) days from the receipt of such written notice to cure the default. If Maker fails to cure any payment default within the cure period, the Maker will be obligated to pay the Holder’s costs of collection, including reasonable attorney fees actually incurred. Any payment which is not paid within the cure period (including that which may become due upon acceleration as hereinafter provided) will bear interest at the rate which is eight percent (8%) per annum in excess of the Interest Rate (the “Default Rate”), from the date of the payment default until paid.

If Maker fails to pay when due any amount payable hereunder, then, after the notice and expiration of the cure period described above, the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with accrued interest thereon, will, at the option of Holder, be immediately due and payable, and Holder may proceed forthwith to collect the same regardless of the stipulated date of maturity, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE HEREOF FOR ALL PURPOSES. Neither Holder’s failure to exercise this right of acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, nor Holder’s acceptance of one or more past due installments, nor Holder’s granting of any indulgences from time to time, will constitute a novation of this contract or a waiver of the right of Holder thereafter to insist upon strict compliance with the terms of this Note.

No extension of time for the payment of this Note or any installment due hereunder will release, discharge, modify or change the liability of the Maker or any endorser under this Note.

HNZW//3583-1    


This Note may not be assigned to or assumed by any other party, without the express written consent of the Holder.

Maker covenants and agrees that until all principal and interest due under this Note have been paid in full that it and its affiliated entities shall not pledge the accounts receivable relating to any of the Facilities (as defined in that certain Sublease Guaranty dated as of April 30, 2015, as amended, given by Maker in favor of Holder).

Notwithstanding any provision of any agreement between Maker and/or its affiliates on one hand and Holder and/or its affiliates on the other hand (including, without limitation, those certain Operations Transfer Agreements relating to the Facilities), Maker (on behalf of itself and its affiliates) acknowledges and agrees that funds received by Holder (or its affiliates) prior to the receipt of Medicare tie-in notices for the Facilities (collectively, the “Medicare Funds”) shall be held by Holder as collateral until all principal and interest due under this Note have been paid in full. If all principal and interest due under this Note is not paid in full on or before the Maturity Date, Maker may apply the Medicare Funds to principal and interest due hereunder. Upon payment in full of all amounts due hereunder, Holder shall promptly disburse to Maker the balance of the Medicare Funds held by Holder and, thereafter, all future Medicare Funds received by Holder (or its affiliates) shall be disbursed in accordance with the Operations Transfer Agreements.

The terms of this Note are binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, and their respective legal representatives, successors and assigns. This instrument is governed by the laws of the State of Georgia without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

(collectively, “ADK”) to affiliates of Highlands Arkansas Holdings, LLC (collectively, “Highlands Arkansas”), relating to a one-time equitable adjustment to Base Rent relating to projected professional liability and general liability insurance costs and projected costs.
Specifically, the parties expressly agree that such equitable adjustment shall total $360,000 cumulatively for all 9 Leases, to be apportioned by the parties pursuant to mutually acceptable lease amendments finalized on or before July 24, 2015; provided, however, that there shall be no such equitable adjustment with respect to the River Valley Facility because the Base Rent under such Facility Lease reflects an appropriate equitable adjustment. The parties further agree that as consideration for this one-time equitable adjustment, that the Base Rent under all of the Leases after the initial Lease Year shall be increased during each subsequent Lease Year by three percent (3%), and that the amendments to Leases shall reflect this increased Base Rent escalation. Finally, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Leases shall also be amended to delete to paragraph at the end of Section 7.7 to each Lease relating to the Reimbursement Threshold.
 
 
 
Sincerely,
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
ADCARE HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC.

Exhibit 10.103

$600,000.00                                    Atlanta, Georgia
        As of August 1, 2015

PROMISSORY NOTE

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, PWW HEALTHCARE, LLC, PV SNF LLC, HC SNF, LLC, CC SNF, LLC, EW SNF LLC AND EW ALF, LLC, each a Florida limited liability company (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Maker”), jointly and severally, promise to pay to the order of ADCARE HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC., a Georgia corporation (hereinafter, together with any other holder hereof, referred to as “Holder”), or to such other party or parties as Holder from may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($600,000.00), together with simple interest accruing on the unpaid balance of this Note at a rate equal to twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”).

An amount up to the principal amount of this Note shall be disbursed by Holder to Maker in not more than two (2) draws at any time after September 1, 2015 but prior to October 1, 2015 within two (2) business days of Maker’s written request to Holder.

The principal sum of this Note together with all accrued and unpaid interest is due and payable on October 1, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”); provided, however, that Maker shall have two (2) options to extend the Maturity Date by thirty (30) days each by providing written notice to Holder prior to October 1, 2015 or October 31, 2015, as the case may be (e.g., the latest possible Maturity Date shall be November 30, 2015).

The principal amount of the Note may be prepaid in whole from time to time and at any time without premium or penalty.

If the payment obligation under this Note is not paid when due, the Holder shall provide written notice of default to the Maker at the address written above, and Maker will have five (5) days from the receipt of such written notice to cure the default. If Maker fails to cure any payment default within the cure period, the Maker will be obligated to pay the Holder’s costs of collection, including reasonable attorney fees actually incurred. Any payment which is not paid within the cure period (including that which may become due upon acceleration as hereinafter provided) will bear interest at the rate which is eight percent (8%) per annum in excess of the Interest Rate (the “Default Rate”), from the date of the payment default until paid.

If Maker fails to pay when due any amount payable hereunder, then, after the notice and expiration of the cure period described above, the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note, together with accrued interest thereon, will, at the option of Holder, be immediately due and payable, and Holder may proceed forthwith to collect the same regardless of the stipulated date of maturity, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE HEREOF FOR ALL PURPOSES. Neither Holder’s failure to exercise this right of acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness evidenced hereby, nor Holder’s acceptance of one or more past due installments, nor Holder’s granting of any indulgences from time to time, will constitute a novation of this contract or a waiver of the right of Holder thereafter to insist upon strict compliance with the terms of this Note.


1

HNZW//3583-1


No extension of time for the payment of this Note or any installment due hereunder will release, discharge, modify or change the liability of the Maker or any endorser under this Note.

This Note may not be assigned to or assumed by any other party, without the express written consent of the Holder.

Maker covenants and agrees that until all principal and interest due under this Note have been paid in full that it and its affiliated entities shall not pledge the accounts receivable relating to any of the facilities (collectively, the “Facilities”) identified in those certain operations transfer agreements dated as of August 1, 2015 between Maker and/or its affiliates on one hand and Holder and/or its affiliates on the other hand (collectively, the “Operations Transfer Agreements”).

Notwithstanding any provision of any agreement between Maker and/or its affiliates on one hand and Holder and/or its affiliates on the other hand (including, without limitation, the Operations Transfer Agreements), Maker (on behalf of itself and its affiliates) acknowledges and agrees that funds received by Holder (or its affiliates) prior to the receipt of Medicare tie-in notices for the Facilities (collectively, the “Medicare Funds”) shall be held by Holder as collateral until all principal and interest due under this Note have been paid in full; provided, however, that in the event that Maker needs all or any portion of the Medicare Funds prior to the Maturity Date, Holder may, in its sole discretion, disburse such amounts of the Medicare Funds to Maker as Maker requests in writing within two (2) business days of Maker’s written request (each such request, a “Medicare Funds Request”) therefor. Each Medicare Funds Request shall include a description of how the requested Medicare Funds shall be used by Maker. If all principal and interest due under this Note is not paid in full on or before the Maturity Date, (as such date may be extended as provided herein), Maker may apply the Medicare Funds to principal and interest due hereunder. Upon payment in full of all amounts due hereunder, Holder shall promptly disburse to Maker the balance of the Medicare Funds held by Holder and, thereafter, all future Medicare Funds received by Holder (or its affiliates) shall be disbursed in accordance with the Operations Transfer Agreements.

The terms of this Note are binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, and their respective legal representatives, successors and assigns. This instrument is governed by the laws of the State of Georgia without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

Exhibit 10.104


SUBLEASE AGREEMENT

THIS SUBLEASE AGREEMENT (this “Sublease”) is entered into as of the 20th day of July, 2015 (the “Execution Date”) by and among ADK BONTERRA/PARKVIEW, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“Sublessor”), 2801 FELTON AVENUE, L.P., a Georgia limited partnership (“Bonterra Sublessee”), for the improved real property described on Exhibit “A-1” ( the “Bonterra Leased Property”), and 460 AUBURN AVENUE, L.P., a Georgia limited partnership (“Parkview Sublessee”; collectively with Bonterra Sublessee, the “Sublessees” and, individually, a “Sublessee”), for the improved real property described on Exhibit “A-2” ( the “Parkview Leased Property”; collectively with the Bonterra Leased Property, the “Leased Properties” and, individually, a “Leased Property”), on which Leased Properties are located the skilled nursing facilities more particularly identified on Exhibits “A-1” and “A-2” (collectively, the “Facilities”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Sublessor is the tenant under that certain Third Amended and Restated Multiple Facilities Lease dated as of October 29, 2010, as amended pursuant to that certain First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Multiple Facilities Lease (as amended, the “Existing Master Lease”) pursuant to which Sublessor leases the Leased Properties from Georgia Lessor – Bonterra/Parkview, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Lessor”); and

WHEREAS, Sublessor desires to sublease the Leased Properties to Bonterra Sublessee, with respect to the Bonterra Leased Property, and to Parkview Sublessee, with respect to the Parkview Leased Property, and Sublessees desire to sublease the Leased Properties from Sublessor on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of Ten Dollars and no/100 ($10.00), and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration paid by each party to the other, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.    Definitions. Any capitalized terms used but not defined in this Sublease will have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Existing Master Lease.

2.    Sublease. Upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Sublease and the Existing Master Lease, (i) Sublessor leases to Bonterra Sublessee, and Bonterra Sublessee leases from Sublessor, the Bonterra Leased Property, and (ii) Sublessor leases to Parkview Sublessee, and Parkview Sublessee leases from Sublessor, the Parkview Leased Property.






3.    Conditions to Effectiveness. This Sublease shall not be effective or binding upon the parties and Sublessees shall have no rights or obligations with respect to the Leased Properties unless and until the following shall have occurred: (i) Lessor shall have approved this Sublease in its sole discretion and (ii) Sublessees shall have obtained all regulatory and other approvals and licenses for Sublessees to operate the Facilities as Medicare and Medicaid enrolled skilled nursing facilities (such date being hereinafter referred to as the “Approvals Date”).
4.    Single, Indivisible Lease. This Sublease constitutes one indivisible lease of the Leased Properties and not separate leases governed by similar terms. Bonterra Sublessee is the sublessee of the Bonterra Leased Property, and Parkview Sublessee is the sublessee of the Parkview Leased property, but each Sublessee is jointly liable for all obligations of the Sublessees hereunder. The Leased Properties constitute one economic unit, and the Base Rent (as hereinafter defined) and all other provisions have been negotiated and agreed to based on a demise of all of the Leased Properties to Sublessees as a single, composite, inseparable transaction and would have been substantially different had separate leases or a divisible lease been intended. Except as expressly provided in this Sublease for specific, isolated purposes (and then only to the extent expressly otherwise stated), all provisions of this Sublease apply equally and uniformly to all of the Leased Properties as one unit. An Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) with respect to any Leased Property is an Event of Default as to all of the Leased Properties. The parties intend that the provisions of this Sublease shall at all times be construed, interpreted and applied so as to carry out their mutual objective to create an indivisible lease of all of the Leased Properties and, in particular but without limitation, that, for purposes of any assumption, rejection or assignment of this Sublease under 11 U.S.C. 365, this is one indivisible and non-severable sublease and executory contract dealing with one legal and economic unit and that this Sublease must be assumed, rejected or assigned as a whole with respect to all (and only as to all) of the Leased Properties.
5.    Subordination. This Sublease is subject and subordinate to the Existing Master Lease. Except as provided in Section 26(b) below, all applicable terms and conditions of the Existing Master Lease are incorporated into and made a part of this Sublease as if Sublessees were the Lessee under the Existing Master Lease. If any term or provision of this Sublease imposes an obligation or condition that is different than a term or provision of the Existing Master Lease, the obligation or conditions set forth in this Sublease shall control. Sublessor shall not agree with Lessor to terminate the Existing Master Lease without first having obtained the prior written consent of Sublessees. Unless expressly provided for in this Sublease to the contrary, Sublessees assume and agree to perform the Sublessor’s obligations under the Existing Master Lease during the term of this Sublease, except that the obligation to pay Base Rent and Additional Charges to Lessor under the Existing Master Lease shall remain the obligation of Sublessor and shall be considered performed by Sublessees upon payment of Base Rent and Additional Charges due under this Sublease. Sublessees shall not cause or suffer any act of negligence that will violate any of the provisions of the Existing Master Lease. If the Existing Master Lease terminates for any reason, this Sublease shall terminate and the parties shall be relieved from all liabilities and obligations under this Sublease; provided, however, that if this Sublease is terminated by Lessor due to a default of Sublessor or Sublessees under the Existing Master Lease or under this Sublease, the defaulting party shall be liable to the non-defaulting party for all damage suffered by the non-defaulting party as a result of the termination.

6.    Initial Term. Subject to the provisions of Section 3 above, the initial term of this Sublease shall commence on the Commencement Date (as hereinafter defined) and continue until midnight on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Commencement Date unless sooner terminated as provided in this Sublease or upon termination of the Existing Master Lease (the “Initial Term”). A “Lease Year” as used in this Sublease is the twelve (12) month period commencing on the Commencement Date and each anniversary thereof during the Term. The “Commencement Date” of this Sublease shall be the Approvals Date, provided, however, if the Approvals Date does not occur on the first day of a calendar month, then the Commencement Date shall be the first day of the calendar month following the Approvals Date.
7.     Renewal Term. If (i) the Existing Master Lease is extended for a Renewal Term as provided in Section 1.3 thereof and (ii) there is no uncured Event of Default by Sublessees under this Sublease as of the date Sublessor receives the Renewal Notice (as defined below) or on the last day of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable, Sublessees shall have the right but not the obligation, to extend the Term of this Sublease through the end of the applicable Renewal Term upon written notice (the “Renewal Notice”) to Sublessor and Lessor at least one-hundred twenty (120) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or the current Renewal Term, as the case may be.
8.    Term. For purposes hereof, the “Term” shall mean the Initial Term and any Renewal Term.
9.    Base Rent. During the Term, Sublessees shall pay in advance to Sublessor on or before the 1st day of each month the following amounts as “Base Rent”:
Lease Year
 
  Base Rent Per Month

Year 1
 
$170,000.00
Year 2
 
$175,000.00
Year 3
 
$180,000.00
    
Commencing on the first day of the 4th Lease Year of this Sublease and continuing on the first day of each Lease Year thereafter during the Initial Term and any Renewal Term, Base Rent payable hereunder shall increase by three percent (3%) over the Base Rent for the previous Lease Year.

10.    Additional Charges. In addition to Base Rent, Sublessees shall pay to Sublessor, all Additional Charges payable by Sublessees under the Existing Master Lease. For purposes of this Sublease, the term “Rent” shall mean the Base Rent and all Additional Charges.

11.    Absolute Net Lease. All Rent payments shall be absolutely net to Sublessor, free of any and all taxes, other charges, and operating or other expenses of any kind whatsoever, all of which shall be paid by Sublessees. Sublessees shall continue to perform their obligations under this Sublease even if Sublessees claims they have been damaged by Sublessor. Thus, Sublessee

 
3




shall at all times remain obligated under this Sublease without any right of set-off, counterclaim, abatement, deduction, reduction or defense of any kind. The sole right of Sublessees to recover damages against Sublessor under this Sublease shall be to prove such damages in a separate action.

12.    Payment Terms. All Rent to Sublessor hereunder shall be paid by wire transfer in accordance with Sublessor’s wire transfer instructions to be provided to Sublessees, or as otherwise directed by Sublessor from time to time.

13.    Security Deposit. Sublessees shall deposit with Sublessor and maintain during the Term the sum of One Hundred Seventy Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($170,000.00) as a security deposit (the “Security Deposit”) against the faithful performance by Sublessees of their obligations under this Sublease. The Security Deposit shall be paid on the Commencement Date. If an Event of Default shall occur under the Existing Master Lease or this Sublease, Sublessor may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the Security Deposit which is necessary for the payment of: (i) any Rent which Sublessees have not paid when due after any applicable notice and cure period; (ii) any sum expended by Sublessor on behalf of Sublessees in accordance with the provisions of this Sublease; or (iii) any sum which Sublessor may expend or be required to expend by reason of any Event of Default under the Existing Master Lease. If any portion of the Security Deposit is not used, applied or retained by Sublessor for the purposes set forth above, as of the end of the Term, then Sublessor agrees, within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Term, to refund to Sublessees the entirety of such remaining portion.
14.    Late Charges; Interest. If any Rent is not paid when due, Sublessees shall pay to Sublessor all late charges and interest required to be paid under Section 3.3 of the Existing Master Lease.
15.     Assignment and Subletting. Sublessees shall not, either voluntarily or by operation of law, assign this Agreement or further sublet all or any part of the Leased Properties without the prior written consent of Sublessor and Lessor. Any purported assignment or sublease without such consent shall be null and void and constitute a material breach of this Sublease.
16.    Attorneys Fees. If there is any legal or arbitration action or proceeding between Sublessor and Sublessees to enforce any provision of this Sublease or to protect or establish any right or remedy of either Sublessor or Sublessees hereunder, the unsuccessful party to such action or proceeding will pay to the prevailing party all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by such prevailing party in such action or proceeding and in any appearance in connection therewith, and if such prevailing party recovers a judgment in any such action, proceeding or appeal, such costs and expenses will be determined by the court or arbitration panel handling the proceeding and will be included in and as a part of such judgment.
17.    Notices. All notices and demands that may be required or permitted by either party to the other shall be in writing. All notices, payments and demands hereunder shall be sent by overnight courier or by certified United States Mail, postage prepaid, addressed as provided below, or to any other place that one party may from time to time designate in a notice to the other party,

All personal property, fixtures and equipment located at the Leased Properties as of the Execution Date of this Sublease (the “Sublessor FF&E”) shall remain the property of Sublessor (as between Sublessor and Sublessees) and shall remain at the Leased Properties at the end of the Term, and Sublessees shall have the right to use same during the Term in connection with the operation of the Facilities. Any replacements of such Sublessor FF&E made by Sublessees during the Term shall become the property of Sublessor upon the expiration of the Term.
19.    Default.

(a)    The following shall be deemed to be events of default by Sublessees (each, an “Event of Default”): (i) Sublessees shall fail to pay when due any installment of Base Rent or Additional Charges within this Sublease; (ii) Sublessees shall fail to comply in any respect with any term, provision, covenant or warranty under the Existing Master Lease which results in an Event of Default under the Existing Master Lease and (iii) Sublessees shall fail to comply in every respect with any term, provision, covenant, or warranty made under this Sublease by Sublessees and shall not cure such failure within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof to Sublessees; provided that if any such failure is not curable by its nature within such thirty-day period, then Sublessees shall have such additional time as is necessary to cure the same, if and for so long as Sublessees proceed

 
5




promptly and with due diligence to cure the failure, and provided that such additional time to cure does not result in an Event of Default under the Existing Master Lease

(b)    Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Sublessor shall have the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any notice or demand whatsoever: (i) terminate this Sublease, in which event Sublessees shall immediately surrender the Leased Properties to Sublessor, and if Sublessees fail to do so, Sublessor may without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearage in Rent, enter upon and take possession of the Leased Properties and expel or remove Sublessees and any other person who may be occupying the Leased Properties or any part thereof, by force, if necessary, as permitted by Georgia law without being liable for prosecution or any claim of damages therefor; Sublessees hereby agreeing to pay to Sublessor on demand the amount of all Rent and other charges accrued through the date of termination; (ii) enter upon and take possession of the Leased Properties and expel or remove Sublessee and any other person who may be occupying the Leased Properties or any part thereof, by force, if necessary, as permitted by Georgia law, without being liable for prosecution or any claim of damages thereof and, if Sublessor so elects, relet the Leased Properties on such terms as Sublessor may deem advisable, in its sole discretion, without advertisement, and by private negotiations provided that if Sublessor succeeds in re-letting the Leased Properties and receives the rent therefor, Sublessees hereby agree to pay to Sublessor the deficiency, if any, between all Rent reserved hereunder and the total rental applicable to the Term hereof obtained by Sublessor through such re-letting, and Sublessees shall be liable for Sublessor's expenses in restoring the Leased Properties and all costs incident to such re-letting; (iii) enter upon the Leased Properties by force if necessary as permitted by Georgia law, without being liable for prosecution or any claim of damages therefor, and do whatever Sublessees are obligated to do under the terms of this Sublease; and Sublessees agree to reimburse Sublessor on demand for any expenses including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees which Sublessor may incur in thus effecting compliance with Sublessees’ obligations under this Sublease and Sublessees further agree that Sublessor shall not be liable for any damages resulting to Sublessee from such action.

(c)    An Event of Default by Sublessees under this Sublease shall be an Event of Default under the Existing Master Lease and entitle Lessor to exercise any and all remedies provided by the Existing Master Lease.

(d)    The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and in addition to any other remedy provided by law or at equity. No action taken by or on behalf of Sublessor shall be construed to be an acceptance of a surrender of this Agreement. Forbearance by Sublessor to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an Event of Default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default.

20.     Holding Over. If Sublessees remain in possession of any portion of the Leased Properties after expiration or termination of the Term with or without Sublessor's written consent, each Sublessee shall become a Sublessee-at-sufferance, and there shall be no renewal of this Sublease by operation of law. During the period of any such holding over, all provisions of this Sublease shall be and remain in effect except that the monthly rental shall be 150% of the amount of Base Rent payable for the last full calendar month of the Term including renewals or extensions. The

 
6




inclusion of the preceding sentence in this Sublease shall not be construed as Sublessor's consent for Sublessees to hold over.

21.    Surrender of Leased Properties. Upon the expiration or other termination of this Sublease, Sublessees shall quit and surrender to Sublessor the Leased Properties broom clean in substantially the same condition as at the commencement of the Sublease, reasonable wear and tear only excepted. Unless otherwise required under the Existing Master Lease, Sublessees shall have no obligation to remove or restore alterations, modifications or additions to the Leased Properties made with the consent of Sublessor and Lessor, or made where no such consent is required under this Sublease or the Existing Master Lease. Sublessees’ obligation to observe or perform this covenant shall survive the expiration or other termination of this Sublease.
22.    Insurance. Sublessees shall name Sublessor and AdCare Health Systems, Inc. as additional insureds under all general liability and professional liability insurance policies to be provided by Sublessees under the Existing Master Lease.
23.    Successors and Assigns. This Sublease shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
24.    Entire Agreement. This Sublease sets forth the entire agreement between Sublessor and Sublessee concerning the Leased Properties, and, except for the operations transfer agreements to be entered into between the licensed operators of the Facilities, there are no other agreements either oral or written between the parties relating to the Leased Properties.
26.    Other Provisions of Existing Master Lease.

(a)    Reports. Sublessees shall provide copies of all reports required under the Existing Master Lease to Sublessor and to Lessor.

(b)    Existing Master Lease Provisions Not Incorporated. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Sublease to the contrary, the following Sections of the Existing Master Lease are not incorporated into this Sublease and Sublessee shall have no obligation to perform and shall not be bound by them:
Section 7.3 - Certain Environmental Matters [but only with respect to environmental conditions existing prior to the Commencement Date or obligations arising prior to the Commencement Date];
Section 8.2.1 – Lessee’s Tangible Net Worth;
Section 8.2.2 – Guarantor’s Tangible Net Worth;
Section 8.2.8 [incorrectly numbered as Section 8.2.5 in Master Lease] – Loans From Affiliates;
Section 8.5 – Other Facilities;

 
7




Section 23.1(a) – Financial Statements [but only with respect to (i) any requirement to provide financial statements with respect to “Guarantor”, as defined in the existing Master Lease, and (ii) any requirement that financial statements provided by Sublessees must be audited]; and

Section 39.1 – Security Deposit.
(c)    Sublessor Consent: In each case provided herein for the consent or approval of Sublessor, in no event shall Sublessor’s consent or approval be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If a consent or approval of Lessor is required under the Existing Master Lease, the giving of such consent or approval by Lessor shall be deemed the consent or approval of Sublessor and no further consent or approval of Sublessor shall be required.

(d)    Sublessor Performance of Existing Master Lease. Sublessor agrees to pay to Lessor installments of Base Rent as required by the Existing Master Lease and to perform all covenants of Lessor arising under the Existing Master Lease that are not the obligation of Sublessee hereunder to perform. Within ten (10) days after receipt of Sublessees’ written request, Sublessor shall provide Sublessee commercially reasonable evidence of the payment of Base Rent due under the Existing Master Lease. Sublessor also shall deliver to Sublessees any written notice of non-performance or demand that Sublessor receives from Lessor under the Existing Master Lease within five (5) business days after receiving same. If Sublessor fails to make any payment required under the Existing Master Lease after receiving payment of Base Rent and Additional Charges from Sublessor, or otherwise defaults under any provision of the Existing Master Lease, then (i) after five (5) business days written notice to Sublessor, Sublessees shall have the right to cure such default and thereafter (without additional notice required) to pay all amounts due under this Sublease directly to Lessor, and any amount so paid by Sublessees, at the sole written election of Sublessees, shall be credited and offset against amounts Sublessees owes or will owe to Sublessor pursuant to this Sublease; and (ii) upon Sublessees’ written demand, Sublessor shall immediately refund to Sublessee any and all amounts paid by Sublessees to Sublessor if Sublessees have repaid such amounts directly to Lessor or, at the sole written election of Sublessees, such amounts shall be credited and offset against amounts Sublessees owe or will owe to Sublessor pursuant to this Sublease. Sublessees shall inform Sublessor in writing of any action on their part to pay or perform directly to Lessor any of Sublessor’s obligations under the Existing Master Lease as permitted by this Section.

(e)    Taking: Sublessor shall not exercise its rights under Article XV of the Master Lease to terminate the Master Lease with respect to any Leased Property without the prior written consent of Sublessees, which consent Sublessees may withhold in their sole discretion.

27.    Governing Law and Venue. This Sublease is made pursuant to, and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws in force in the State of Georgia, and any dispute arising hereunder shall be brought in the courts of Georgia.

28.    Counterparts. This Sublease may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same Sublease notwithstanding that all parties hereto have not signed the same counterpart. Signatures on this Sublease which are transmitted electronically

 
8




shall be valid for all purposes. Any party shall, however, deliver an original signature on this Sublease to the other party upon request.

2.Amendments to Note. CAM and the Company hereby amend the Note, effective as of July 31, 2015, at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time (the “Effective Time”), as follows:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(c)(v), until the Company Optional Redemption Price is paid, in full, the Company Optional Redemption Amount may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 3.

(a)Event of Default. An Event of Default (as defined below) may only be waived by the written consent of the Holder. Unless waived pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, each of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default”:

Change of Control. Section 5 of the Note is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
5.    Rights Upon Change of Control.
(a)No sooner than twenty (20) days nor later than ten (10) days prior to the consummation of a Change of Control, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier to the Holder (a “Change of Control Notice”). At any time during the period commencing on the earlier to occur of (i) any definitive written agreement by the Company, which upon consummation of the transaction contemplated thereby would reasonably be expected to result in a Change of Control, and (ii) the Holder’s receipt of a Change of Control Notice and ending twenty (20) Trading Days after the date of the consummation of such Change of Control, the Required Holders may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of this Note (and a pro rata portion of all of the other Notes) by delivering written notice thereof (“Holders Change of Control Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Holders Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the Conversion Amount of this Note (and the pro rata portion of all of the other Notes) that the Required Holders are electing to require the Company to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5(a) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to 115% of the Conversion Amount to be redeemed as specified in the Holders Change of Control Redemption Notice (the “Holders Change of Control Redemption Price”).

(c)Redemptions required by Section 5(a) or Section 5(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 and Section 11(c) and shall have priority to payments to shareholders in connection with a Change of Control. To the extent redemptions

4



required by Section 5(a) or Section 5(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Notes by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but subject to Section 3(d): (i) until the Holders Change of Control Redemption Price is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under Section 5(a) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3 and, if so converted, the Holder shall not be entitled to receive the Holders Change of Control Redemption Price with respect to such Conversion Amount; and (ii) until the Company Change of Control Redemption Price is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under Section 5(b) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3 and, if so converted, the Holder shall not be entitled to receive the Company Change of Control Redemption Price with respect to such Conversion Amount.
Adjustments. Section 6(b) of the Note is deleted in its entirety.
Redemption Mechanics. The first two sentences of Section 9(a) of the Note are amended and restated in their entirety as follows (with the last sentence in the paragraph below being added in its entirety):
(a)Mechanics. The Company shall deliver the applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Holder within five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s Event of Default Redemption Notice. If the Required Holders have submitted a Holders Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5(a), then the Company shall deliver the applicable Holders Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder (i) concurrently with the consummation of such Change of Control if such notice is received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the consummation of such Change of Control and (ii) within five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of such notice otherwise. If the Company has submitted a Company Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5(b), then the Company shall deliver the applicable Company Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder within five (5) Business Days after the consummation of such Change of Control.
Other Definitions.
(a)The definition of “Redemption Notices” in Section 25(q) of the Note is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(q) “Redemption Notices” means, collectively, the Event of Default Redemption Notices, the Holders Change of Control Redemption Notices, the Company Change of Control Redemption Notices and the Company Optional Redemption Notices, and each of the foregoing, individually, a “Redemption Notice.”

The Company will use its best efforts to cause the SEC to declare the registration statement (or post-effective amendment) effective as soon as practicable after filing. CAM acknowledges and agrees that neither the Note nor the Conversion Shares may be offered for sale or sold by it unless a registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state laws shall be effective with respect thereto, or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws is available in connection with such offer and sale.
4.Consulting Agreements. Simultaneously with the execution of this Amendment, the Company shall pay to Cantone Research, Inc. (“CRI”) an amendment fee equal to 2.5% of the Amended Principal Amount.

Whereas, Maker executed the Promissory Note dated August 17, 2012 (the “Original Note”) for a loan (the “Loan”) in the original principal amount of Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000) in favor of Holder, as such Original Note is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Whereas the Original Note matures August 20, 2015 (the “Original Maturity Date”).
Whereas, the Maker has requested an extension of the Original Maturity Date to November 20, 2015 (as extended, the “Maturity Date”).
Whereas, Maker and Guarantors are in default (the “Existing Defaults” and “Ongoing Defaults”) for those matters listed in the Forbearance Agreement dated August __, 2015 (the “Forbearance Agreement”).
Whereas, as a condition to approving such extension, Holder requires (i) certain changes to the Original Note and (ii) satisfaction of additional conditions (“Additional Conditions”) as set forth in Paragraph B herein.
The Maker and Guarantors executing this First Amendment agree that Holder’s agreeing to this First Amendment and the Forbearance Agreement constitute good and adequate consideration for their acceptance of the Additional Conditions.

The Installment Payments are set forth on an amortization schedule attached to the Loan Agreement (as defined below) as Schedule 2.4(a). Borrower acknowledges receipt and review of both Schedule 2.4(a) of the Loan Agreement and the electronic version of Schedule 2.4(a), which electronic version, among other things, sets forth the formulas and other calculations employed to create such amortization table.
C.    On November 20, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”), if not sooner prepaid, Maker shall pay to Holder, without demand, the outstanding principal balance of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest.
3.
The outstanding principal balance of the Note, net of cure amounts on deposit with Holder, as of the date hereof is $3,041,149.20.
4.
The definition of Maturity Date in the Loan Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the definition set forth above in this First Amendment.
5.
Any reference to “Note” or “Maturity Date” in any Loan Document shall mean the Original Note as modified by this First Amendment.
6.
A revised amortization schedule for the Note is attached hereto as Exhibit B, which schedule may be modified as provided for herein and in the Loan Agreement.
7.
Except as specifically set forth herein, all other terms of the Original Note shall remain the same.
8.
This First Amendment, including all exhibits, shall be attached to the Original Note and made a part thereof.
9.
The parties hereto further agree that any reference to the Maturity Date and Note in any Loan Document, including the Mortgage, as defined in the Loan Agreement, shall mean such terms as modified by this First Amendment.
B.Additional Conditions.
1.
A Forbearance Agreement, acceptable to the Holder in its sole discretion, shall have been executed by Maker, Guarantors and Holder.
C.Miscellaneous.
1.
This First Amendment shall become effective as of the date first above written (the “Effective Date”) after all of the conditions set forth in Section B shall have been satisfied.

This First Amendment shall have been executed and delivered by the Maker and Guarantors.
3.
By their signatures on this First Amendment, each Guarantor reaffirms his/her/its guaranty of the obligations of the Loan Documents and Guaranties.

By its signature to this First Amendment, Maker and each Guarantor certifies to Holder that other than the Ongoing Defaults and Existing Defaults, the representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Documents, as amended, are true and correct in all material respects.

Any Title Objection that the Title Company is willing to insure over on terms reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and Seller is herein referred to as an “Insured Exception.” The Insured Exceptions, together with any title exception in the Title Commitment or matters disclosed by the Survey not objected to by Purchaser in the manner set forth above, shall be deemed to be Permitted Encumbrances for purposes of this Agreement.

7.1(d)     Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate with Title Company in connection with obtaining title insurance insuring title to the Transferred Assets subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, at or prior to the Closing, Purchaser and Seller shall deliver to Title Company such affidavits, certificates and other instruments as are reasonably requested by Title Company and customarily furnished in connection with the issuance of owner's policies of title insurance.

7.2
Inability to Convey; Rights of Parties.


7.2(a)     Except as specifically provided in this Section 7.2, Seller shall not have any obligation to take or bring any action or proceeding or take any other steps to remove any Encumbrance that does not constitute a Permitted Encumbrance or to expend any money to remove any such Encumbrance, nor shall Purchaser have any right of action against Seller, at law or in equity, for Seller's inability to convey title to the Transferred Assets subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances. At or prior to the Closing, Seller shall (1) remove and discharge all monetary liens specifically secured by the Real Property and the Personal Property that have been voluntarily created or assumed by Seller or that arise as a result of Seller's failure to pay such amounts that become due in the Ordinary Course of Business, including but not limited to, its indebtedness or obligations in accordance with normal terms, taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed on its income or the Transferred Assets, or lawful claims to labor, materials or supplies (“Monetary Encumbrance”); and (2) take such steps that are commercially reasonable and necessary to discharge or remove all other Encumbrances which do not constitute Permitted Encumbrances or Monetary Encumbrances that can be discharged or removed at an expense to Seller.

7.2(b)     Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, within ten (10) days after receipt of the Objection Notice, Seller shall notify Purchaser as to whether Seller will be able to cure and/or remove Title Objections (other than Monetary Encumbrances which are to be removed by Seller at or before Closing pursuant to Section 7.2(a)) (“Seller's Notice”). If Seller indicates in the Seller’s Notice that it will not be able to so cure and/or remove such Title Objections then, subject to the next sentence, Purchaser shall be entitled, at its option, either (i) to terminate this Agreement (so long as such notice of termination is given to Seller within five (5) days of Purchaser's receipt of Seller's Notice) and to receive a full refund of the Earnest Money Deposit, or (ii) to purchase the Transferred Assets subject to such Title Objections (other than the Monetary Encumbrances ) (in which event such Title Objections, to the extent not fully discharged and removed by Seller's expenditures, shall be deemed to be Permitted Encumbrances). The preceding sentence notwithstanding, with respect to any Encumbrance that is not a Permitted Encumbrance which appears of record or arises after the date of the Title Commitment, or in the event that Seller notifies Purchaser of its intention to cure and/or remove Title Objections but fails to do so on or before the Closing Date, Purchaser shall have the options specified in the preceding sentence except that the option to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of the Earnest Money Deposit may be exercised at any time up to and including the Closing Date, and in addition to the refund of the Earnest Money Deposit, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser with the reasonable costs of the Purchaser's due diligence (upon presentation of usual and customary receipts), including but not limited to the Title Commitment, the Survey, the Phase I Report the Phase II Report, if any, and reasonable attorneys’ fees relating to the review thereof in an amount not to exceed $100,000.00.

OF SELLER AND PURCHASER

8.1    Risk of Loss.

The risk of loss or damage by fire or other casualty or cause to the Transferred Assets until the Closing Date shall be upon Seller. If, on or before the Closing Date, all or any of the Transferred Assets are Damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser. If the resulting Damage to the Transferred Assets is greater than $500,000, taken in the aggregate, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by delivery of notice of termination to Seller within 10 days of date of delivery of Seller’s notice of such casualty. If Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of such 10-day period, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. In such instance, at the Closing, Seller shall credit against the Purchase Price an amount equal to the damage to the Transferred Assets based on a reasonable estimate to rebuild, restore or correct the Transferred Assets to their condition immediately prior to the casualty, as determined by an independent, certified engineer or other qualified professional acceptable to Seller and Purchaser (the “Independent Engineer”). If the resulting Damage to the Transferred Assets is $500,000 or less, taken in the aggregate, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. In such instance, at the Closing, Seller shall credit against the Purchase Price an amount equal to the damage to the Transferred Assets based on a reasonable estimate to rebuild, restore or correct the Transferred Assets to their condition immediately prior to casualty, as determined by the Independent Appraiser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 8.1, if Seller is required under its loan covenants to commence rebuilding, restoring or otherwise correcting the Transferred Assets prior to the Closing, any costs or expenses incurred by Seller in rebuilding, restoring or correcting the Transferred Assets prior to the Closing shall be applied against and reduce the amount to be credited to Purchaser at Closing pursuant hereto. All costs of the Independent Engineer shall be borne equally by Seller and Purchaser. Seller shall retain all rights to receive insurance proceeds paid in respect of any such casualty and, post-closing, shall have no Liability to Purchaser associated with completion of the rebuilding, restoration or correction of the Transferred Assets.

8.2
Risk of Condemnation Loss.

8.2(a)    If, on or before the Closing Date, all or any of the Transferred Assets are taken as a result of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser. If the resulting condemnation would materially and adversely affect the ability to operate the Transferred Assets, taken as a whole, in the same manner as the Transferred Assets were operated prior to the condemnation, taken as a whole, Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by delivery of notice of termination within ten days of the date of delivery of Seller’s notice of such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings. If Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of such 10‑day period, or such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings do not materially and adversely affect the ability to operate the Transferred Assets, taken as a whole, in the same manner as the Transferred Assets were operated prior to the condemnation, taken as a whole, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.


8.2(b)    At the Closing, Seller shall credit against the Purchase Price an amount equal to the net proceeds, if any, received by Seller from such condemnation. If, as of the Closing Date, Seller has not received any such condemnation proceeds, then the parties shall nevertheless consummate the transactions described in this Agreement on the Closing Date, without any deduction for such condemnation proceeds, and Seller shall at the Closing assign to Purchaser all of Seller’s rights, if any, to the condemnation proceeds and to all other rights or claims arising out of or in connection with such condemnation.

8.5    Preservation of Records; Access by Seller.

Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser and assist Purchaser in obtaining Governmental Authorizations necessary for Purchaser to own and operate the Facilities from the State of Alabama, provided, however, that in such assistance Seller shall not be required to spend any money, or to do anything that would jeopardize Seller’s or any of its Affiliates’ ability to have Governmental Authorizations outstanding in favor of Seller or its Affiliates.

8.10
Restrictions on Post-Closing Activities.

For a period commencing on the Closing Date and expiring on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, open a new assisted living facility within Jefferson County, Alabama.

Seller recognizes that the covenants in this Section 8.10, and the territorial, time and other limitations with respect thereto, are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the acquisition of the Transferred Assets by Purchaser, and agrees that such limitations are reasonable with respect to its activities, business and public purpose. Seller agrees and acknowledges that the violation of the covenants or agreements in this Section 8.10 would cause irreparable injury to Purchaser and that the remedy at law for any violation or threatened violation thereof would be inadequate and that, in addition to whatever other remedies may be available at law or in equity, Purchaser shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting bond. The parties hereto also waive any requirement of proving actual damages in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.

It is the intention of each party hereto that the provisions of this Section 8.10 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and the public policies of the State of Alabama and of any other jurisdiction in which enforcement may be sought, but that the unenforceability (or the modification to conform with such laws or public policies) of any provisions hereof shall not render unenforceable or impair the remainder of this Agreement. Accordingly, if any term or provision of this Section 8.10 shall be determined by a court or other tribunal to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, either in whole or in part, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to delete or modify, as necessary, the offending provisions and to alter the balance of this Agreement in order to render the same valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permissible as aforesaid.


8.11
Compliance with Conditions.

Each party hereto agrees to cooperate fully with each other party, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the conditions precedent for which such party is responsible to be fulfilled. Each party hereto further agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts, and act in good faith, to consummate this Agreement and the transactions contemplated in this Agreement as promptly as possible; provided however, that the parties acknowledge that the Purchaser may terminate this Agreement at its sole discretion pursuant to the terms of Section 3.3.

(i)    The party seeking indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") must give the other party (the "Indemnifying Party"), notice of any such Losses promptly after the Indemnified Party receives notice thereof; provided that the delay or failure in giving such notice shall not affect the rights of the Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have suffered actual damage or Loss by reason of such delay or failure. The notice of any Loss shall include a description of the Loss in reasonable detail.

(ii)    The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to undertake, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing, the defense of such Losses at the Indemnifying Party's risk and expense.

(iii)    In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall elect not to undertake such defense, or, within a reasonable time after notice from the Indemnified Party of any such Losses, shall fail to defend, the Indemnified Party (upon further written notice to the Indemnifying Party) shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Losses, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party (subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to assume defense of such Losses at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof). In such event, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party, in addition to the other sums required to be paid hereunder, the costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with such defense, compromise or settlement as and when such costs and expenses are so incurred.


(iv)    Anything in this Section 13.2 to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) if there is a reasonable possibility that Losses may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other money payments for which it would be entitled to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense, compromise or settlement of the Losses, (b) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party's written consent, settle or compromise any Losses or consent to entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such Losses in form and substance satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and (c) in the event that the Indemnifying Party undertakes defense of any Losses, the Indemnified Party, by counsel or other representative of its own choosing and at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to consult with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel or other representatives concerning such Losses and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and their respective counsel or other representatives shall cooperate with respect to such Losses and (d) in the event that the Indemnifying Party undertakes defense of any Losses, the Indemnifying Party shall have an obligation to keep the Indemnified Party informed of the status of the defense of such Losses and furnish the Indemnified Party with all documents, instruments and information that the Indemnified party shall reasonably request in connection therewith.

(v)    In the event that an Indemnified Party has a good faith basis for a claim for indemnification which does not involve a claim against it by a third party (a "Direct Claim"), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Direct Claim with reasonable promptness, specifying, to the extent known, the nature, circumstances and amount of such Direct Claim (a "Direct Claim Notice"), including with particularity the specific representation and warranty or covenant and agreement alleged to have been breached. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it disputes an Indemnified Party's right of indemnification with respect to a particular Direct Claim, the parties shall use their reasonable efforts to negotiate a resolution of such dispute promptly. Except to the extent of the limitations on indemnification set forth in this Article 13, nothing in this Section 13.2(d)(v) shall be deemed to prevent any Indemnified Party from initiating litigation under this Agreement with respect to any Direct Claim disputed by the Indemnifying Party for the purpose of establishing the Indemnified Party's right to indemnification hereunder.

13.2(e)    Limitation of Indemnification. No party shall be entitled to indemnification from any other party hereunder until such time that the claims subject to indemnification equal or exceed, in the aggregate, the sum of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) (the “Basket Amount”) and then only to the extent of any excess above the Basket Amount. The maximum liability of each of Seller and Purchaser for indemnification under this Agreement shall be in the aggregate an amount equal to Fifty Percent (50%) of the Purchase Price (the "Maximum Amount"); provided, however, that the Basket Amount and the Maximum Amount shall not apply to claims for indemnification made by Purchaser under Sections 13.2(a)(i), 13.2(a)(ii), or 13.2(c), and shall not apply to claims for indemnification made by Seller under Sections 13.2(b)(i), 13.2(b)(ii) or 13.2(b)(iv). A party's right to seek indemnification hereunder shall survive the Closing Date; provided that claims for indemnification relating solely to breaches of representations or warranties shall be subject to the time limitations described in Section 13.1. As to claims for indemnification relating solely to breaches of representations and warranties, the Indemnifying Party shall have no Liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder unless the Indemnified Party delivers to the Indemnifying Party notice of the claim within the applicable time limitation described in Section 13.1.

13.2(f)    Effect of Insurance. The amount of any indemnification under this Article 13 shall be reduced by the insurance proceeds received and any other amount, if any, recovered from third parties by the Indemnified Party (or its affiliated entities) with respect to any indemnifiable amounts.

13.3     Indemnification as Exclusive Remedy. Except for claims for fraud or claims for injunctive or equitable relief for which monetary damages covered by an indemnity set forth herein are not available, the indemnification provided in this Section 13 shall be the sole and exclusive post-closing remedy available to the parties to this Agreement under contract, tort or any other legal theory for any Breach of any representations, warranty, covenant or agreement by or on behalf of the Indemnifying Party, or otherwise arising out of the transactions described in this Agreement.

Exhibit 10.109



SUBLEASE AGREEMENT

THIS SUBLEASE AGREEMENT (this “Lease”) is entered into as of the 17th day of July, 2015 (the “Execution Date”) by and among VALLEY RIVER PROPERTY HOLDINGS, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“Prime Landlord”), VALLEY RIVER NURSING, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“Landlord”) and HIGHLANDS OF FORT SMITH, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Tenant”), for the improved real property described on Exhibit “A-1” (the “Facility”), and the “Landlord Personal Property” associated therewith described on Exhibit “A-2” (the Landlord Personal Property together with the Facility, being collectively the “Premises”), which are used as a licensed healthcare facility of the type described on Schedule 1 (the “Business”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Lease are defined on Exhibit “B”.

RECITALS
 
WHEREAS, Landlord is the tenant under that certain Facility Lease Agreement dated as of August 31, 2011 (the “Prime Lease”), pursuant to which Landlord leases the Premises from Prime Landlord, the owner of the Premises;

WHEREAS, Prime Landlord and Landlord are affiliated entities with common ownership;

WHEREAS, Landlord desires to sublease the Premises to Tenant, and Tenant desires to sublease the Premises from Landlord on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;

WHEREAS, Tenant and Landlord have entered into an Operations Transfer Agreement (the “Transfer Agreement”) as of the date hereof; and

WHEREAS, Affiliates of Landlord have subleased other facilities related to this transaction more particularly described in Schedule 1 (the “Related Facilities”) to Affiliates of Tenant (the “Related Lease Affiliates”) pursuant to subleases substantially similar to this Lease and dated January 16, 2015, as amended (as amended, the “Related Leases”). The Related Facilities and the Facility shall be referred to collectively herein as the “Portfolio”.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.Term. The “Term” of this Lease is the Initial Term plus the Renewal Term (if any). A “Lease Year” is the twelve (12) month period commencing on the Commencement Date and each anniversary thereof during each year of the Term. Provided the Conditions Precedent set forth in Section 2 below have been satisfied or waived, the “Initial Term” commences on September 1, 2015 (the “Commencement Date”) and ends on April 30, 2022. The Term may be extended by Tenant for one (1) separate renewal term of five (5) years (“Renewal Term”) if: (a) at least one-hundred eighty (180) days prior to the end of the Initial Term, Tenant delivers to Landlord a “Renewal




Notice” indicating that Tenant desires to exercise its right to extend this Lease for the Renewal Term; (b) there is no then uncured Event of Default (as defined in Section 13 below) (i) as of the date Landlord receives the Renewal Notice (the “Exercise Date”), or (ii) on the last day of the Initial Term; and (c) all Related Lease Affiliates concurrently deliver appropriate Renewal Notices exercising the renewal options for all Related Leases. For purposes hereof, “Termination Date” shall mean the last day of the Initial Term or the Renewal Term (if any) or the earlier date on which this Lease may be terminated as provided herein. Upon receipt of a Renewal Notice, the Prime Lease shall be extended automatically to the last day of the Renewal Term.

2.    Conditions Precedent.

2.1    Landlord’s Conditions Precedent. The duties and obligations of Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease are and shall expressly be conditioned upon the following (the “Conditions Precedent”), which may be waived, in whole or in part, by Landlord in writing:

(a)    Satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 of the Transfer Agreement;

(b)    Receipt by Tenant of adequate assurances that all licenses and other approvals required by the State of Arkansas to operate the Facility will be granted effective as of September 1, 2015; and
(c)    Approval of this Lease by the Facility Mortgagee.
2.2    Tenant’s Conditions Precedent. The duties and obligations of Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease are and shall expressly be conditioned upon the following Conditions Precedent, which may be waived in whole or in part, by Tenant in writing:

2




(a)    Satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 of the Transfer Agreement;
(b)    Receipt by Tenant of adequate assurances that all licenses and other approvals required by the State of Arkansas to operate the Facility will be granted effective as of September 1, 2015;
(c)    Approval of this Lease by the Facility Mortgagee;
(d)    Delivery by Facility Mortgagee of a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant;
(e)    Delivery by Prime Landlord of the Recognition Agreement in the form set forth in Exhibit I attached hereto; and
(f)    Completion and approval by Tenant in its sole discretion of Exhibit D to this Lease.
2.3    Failure of Conditions. If the Conditions Precedent shall not have been satisfied or waived by August 31, 2015, either party may terminate this Lease and the Transfer Agreement by written notice of termination (the “Termination Notice”) delivered to the other party by August 31, 2015 (the “Failure of Conditions Termination Date”). Upon termination of this Lease under the terms of this Section 2, neither party hereto shall have any further claims or obligations under this Lease or the Transfer Agreement, except those obligations that expressly survive termination.
3.    Rent. During the Term, Tenant shall pay in advance to Landlord on or before the 1st day of each month after the Commencement Date the following amounts as Rent (as defined below):
3.1    Initial Term Base Rent. During the first Lease Year of the Initial Term, “Rent” shall be equal to Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) per month. During each subsequent Lease Year of the Initial Term, “Rent” shall be equal to one-hundred three percent (103%) of the Rent due for the immediately preceding Lease Year.
3.2    Renewal Term Base Rent. During the Renewal Term, “Rent” shall be equal to one hundred three percent (103%) of the Rent due for the immediately preceding Lease Year.
3.3    Additional Rent. In the event a disbursement is made by Landlord for a Landlord Investment (as defined in Section 9.2(c) below) or a Capital Improvement Project (as defined in Section 9.2(f) below) during any month, Rent shall increase on the first day of the immediately succeeding calendar month by one-twelfth (1/12th) of the amount equal to the product of: (i) the amount disbursed for the Landlord Investment or Capital Improvement Project; and (ii) nine percent (9%) (the “Annual Yield”).
3.4    Absolute Net Lease. Except as expressly set forth herein and in the Transfer Agreement, all Rent payments shall be absolutely net to Landlord, free of any and all Taxes (as

3




defined below in Section 6), Other Charges (as defined below in Section 6), and Tenant’s operating or other expenses of any kind whatsoever, all of which shall be paid by Tenant. Except as expressly set forth herein and in the Transfer Agreement, (i) Tenant shall continue to perform its obligations under this Lease even if Tenant claims it has been damaged by Landlord, (ii) Tenant shall at all times remain obligated under this Lease without any right of set-off, counterclaim, abatement, deduction, reduction or defense of any kind (except as set forth in Sections 18 and 19 below) and (iii) Tenant’s sole right to recover damages against Landlord under this Lease shall be to prove such damages in a separate action. Pursuant to the Transfer Agreement, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Tenant may offset any recoupment of Medicare, Medicaid, or any other Losses (as that term is defined in the Transfer Agreement) against Rent; provided, that Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of the offset and the reason therefor. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall be conditioned upon the Prime Lease continuing to be in full force and effect for the Term of this Lease.
3.5    Payment Terms. All Rent and other payments to Landlord hereunder shall be paid by wire transfer in accordance with Landlord’s wire transfer instructions attached hereto as Exhibit “C”, or as otherwise directed by Landlord from time to time.
3.6    Equitable Adjustment. As a condition to Tenant’s agreement to a Commencement Date of September 1, 2015, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to assess, in good faith and make a one-time equitable adjustment to Base Rent equal to the difference between the Facility’s 2014 professional liability and general liability insurance costs and projected costs for the first Lease Year of comparable or mutually acceptable insurance as further adjusted by anticipated Medicaid reimbursement rate increases solely from such added costs.

4.    Security Deposit. Tenant shall deposit with Landlord and maintain during the Term a sum equal to the base Rent for the first month of Initial Term as a security deposit (the “Security Deposit”) which Landlord shall hold as security for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of every material term, provision, obligation and covenant under this Lease and subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease. The Security Deposit shall be paid to Landlord on the Commencement Date. The Security Deposit may be deposited by Landlord into an interest-bearing account, which interest shall accrue for the sole benefit of Landlord and not Tenant. The Security Deposit shall not be considered an advance payment of Rent (or of any other sum payable by Tenant under this Lease) or a measure of Landlord’s damages in case of a default by Tenant. The Security Deposit shall not be considered a trust fund, and Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that Landlord is not acting as a trustee or in any fiduciary capacity in controlling or using the Security Deposit. Unless required by law, Landlord shall have no obligation to maintain the Security Deposit separate and apart from Landlord’s general and/or other funds. If Tenant defaults in respect of any of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Lease (or if there is a default by any Related Lease Affiliate under any Related Lease), Landlord may, but shall not be required to, in addition to and not in lieu of any other rights and remedies available to Landlord, apply all or any part of the Security Deposit to the payment of any sum in default, or any other sum that Landlord may expend or be required to expend by reason of Tenant’s default, including but not limited to, any damages or

4




deficiency in reletting the Premises. Whenever, and as often as, Landlord has applied any portion of the Security Deposit to cure Tenant’s default hereunder, or under any Related Lease, Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days after Notice from Landlord, deposit additional money with Landlord sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to the full amount then required to be deposited with Landlord and Tenant’s failure to do so shall constitute an Event of Default without any further Notice. If Landlord transfers or assigns its interest under this Lease, Landlord shall assign the Security Deposit to the new landlord and thereafter Landlord shall have no further liability for the return of the Security Deposit, and Tenant agrees to look solely to the new landlord for the return of the Security Deposit, provided that Landlord and the new landlord execute an assignment of Security Deposit and provide Tenant with a copy of same. Tenant agrees that it will not assign or encumber or attempt to assign or encumber the Security Deposit. Landlord, its successors and assigns shall return the Security Deposit (within ten (10) business days following the Termination Date) to the last tenant in possession of the Premises at the last address for which Notice is to be given by such tenant and Landlord thereafter shall be relieved of any liability therefor, regardless of one or more assignments of this Lease or any such actual or attempted assignment or encumbrances of the Security Deposit.
5.    Late Charges. The late payment of Rent or other amounts due under this Lease will cause Landlord to lose the use of such money and incur administrative and other expenses not contemplated under this Lease. While the exact amount of the foregoing is difficult to ascertain, the parties agree that as a reasonable estimate of fair compensation to Landlord, if Rent or any other amount is not paid within (a) five (5) days after the due date for such payment, then Tenant shall thereafter pay to Landlord on demand a late charge equal to three percent (3%) of such delinquent amounts, and (b) ten (10) days after the due date for such payment, such unpaid amount shall accrue interest from such date at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum (the “Agreed Rate”).
6.    Taxes and Other Charges. At the commencement and at the expiration of the Term, all Taxes and Other Charges shall be prorated. Landlord shall promptly forward to Tenant copies of all bills and payment receipts for Taxes or Other Charges received by it. Subject to Landlord’s obligations to make payments from the impound deposits made by Tenant pursuant to Section 6.2 below, Tenant shall pay and discharge (including the filing of all required returns), prior to delinquency or imposition of any fine, penalty, interest or other cost (“Penalty”), (a) “Taxes”, consisting of any real property and other taxes and assessments levied or assessed with respect to the Premises, and (b) “Other Charges”, consisting of any utilities and other costs and expenses of the Business or any portion of the Premises and all other charges, obligations or deposits assessed against any portion of the Premises during the Term. Tenant shall pay the foregoing when due and before any Penalty, but may pay the foregoing in permitted installments (whether or not interest accrues on the unpaid balance). Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be excluded from the definition of Taxes, and Tenant shall not be responsible for paying, any income taxes, gross receipts taxes, personal property taxes on the Landlord Personal Property, excess profit taxes, excise taxes, franchise taxes, capital stock taxes, transfer taxes or other taxes or assessments personal in nature to Landlord whether or not based in whole or in part on the Rent payable hereunder. Further, in no event shall Tenant be responsible for any assessments in connection with the initial development or construction of the Facility. Within ten (10) days of its receipt of Landlord’s written notice of payment, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to any Taxes or Penalty that Landlord at any

5




time is assessed or otherwise becomes responsible and for which Tenant is liable under this Lease. However, nothing in this Lease shall obligate Tenant to pay penalties incurred as a result of Landlord’s failure to timely forward bills to Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall not be responsible for any Taxes or Other Charges which accrue prior to the Commencement Date, it being understood that any such Taxes or Other Charges shall be the responsibility of and shall be promptly paid by Landlord prior to delinquency.
6.1    Protests. Tenant has the right, but not the obligation, in good faith to protest or contest (a “Protest”) in whole or in part (a) the amount or payment of any Taxes or Other Charges, and (b) the existence, amount or validity of any Lien (as defined in Section 9.1), by appropriate proceedings sufficient to prevent its collection or other realization and the sale, forfeiture or loss of any portion of the Premises or Rent to satisfy it (so long as Tenant provides Landlord with reasonable security to assure the foregoing). Tenant shall diligently prosecute any such Protest at its sole cost and expense and pay such Taxes, Other Charges or Lien. Landlord and Prime Landlord shall cooperate fully in any Protest that involves an amount assessed against it.
6.2    Impound. If required by the Facility Mortgagee or upon Landlord’s written notice to Tenant during the Term, Landlord may require Tenant to pay with each Rent payment a deposit of one-twelfth (1/12th) of the amount required to discharge the annual amount of real property Taxes secured by a Lien encumbering any portion of the Premises as and when they become due. The deposits shall not bear interest nor be held by Landlord in trust or as an agent of Tenant, but rather shall be applied to the payment of the related obligations. Provided that the impound deposits are then sufficient for payment of the applicable obligations, (a) the amounts held by Landlord shall be applied by Landlord directly to the payment of the related obligations in a timely fashion and prior to the imposition of any Penalty, and (b) if any Penalty results from Landlord’s failure to timely make any such payment, such Penalty shall be borne by Landlord. If at any time within thirty (30) days prior to the due date the deposits shall be insufficient for the payment of the obligation in full, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after demand deposit the deficiency with Landlord. If deposits are in excess of the actual obligation, the required monthly deposits for the ensuing Lease Year shall be reduced proportionately and any such excess at the end of the final Lease Year shall be refunded to Tenant within thirty (30) calendar days. Tenant shall forward to Landlord or its designee all Tax bills, bond and assessment statements as soon as they are received. If Landlord transfers this Lease, it shall transfer all such deposits to the transferee, and Landlord shall thereafter have no liability of any kind with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall funds impounded by Tenant for Taxes be used to pay any taxes accrued prior to the Commencement Date.
6.3    Tax Treatment; Reporting. Landlord and Tenant each acknowledges that each shall treat this transaction as a true lease for state law purposes and shall report this transaction as a lease for Federal income tax purposes.  For Federal income tax purposes each shall report this Lease as a true lease with Landlord as the owner of the Premises and Tenant as the lessee of such Premises including: (a) treating Landlord as the owner of the property eligible to claim depreciation deductions under Section 167 or 168 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) with respect to the Premises; (b) Tenant reporting its Rent payments as rent expense under Section 162 of the Code; and (c) Landlord reporting the Rent payments as rental income. For the avoidance of doubt,

6




nothing in this Lease shall be deemed to constitute a guaranty, warranty or representation by either Landlord or Tenant as to the actual treatment of this transaction for state law purposes and for federal income tax purposes.
7.    Insurance. All insurance provided for in this Lease shall (i) name Landlord and Prime Landlord as additional insureds and, for the property insurance policies, Prime Landlord as the owner, (ii) be on an “occurrence” basis, or if claims made, include a provision whereby tail coverage costs are specified upon policy inception, (iii) cover all of Tenant’s operations at the Facility, (iv) provide that the insurer will endeavor to provide not less than ten (10) days prior written notice to Landlord before the policy may be canceled and (v) be primary and provide that any insurance with respect to any portion of the Premises maintained by Landlord is excess and noncontributing with Tenant’s insurance. The property policy(ies) shall also name the Landlord, Prime Landlord and Facility Mortgagee as loss payee. The parties hereby waive as to each other all rights of subrogation which any insurance carrier, or either of them, may have by reason of any provision in any policy issued to them, provided such waiver does not thereby invalidate such policy. Original policies or satisfactory insurer certificates evidencing the existence of the insurance required by this Lease and showing the interest of Landlord and Facility Mortgagee shall be provided to Landlord prior to the commencement of the Term or, for a renewal policy, not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration date of the insurance policy being renewed. If Landlord is provided with a certificate, it may demand that Tenant provide a complete copy of the related policy within ten (10) days of policy issuance. Tenant shall be permitted to keep all insurance required hereunder under blanket policies covering the Premises and other facilities owned or operated by Tenant or its Affiliates. During the Term, Tenant shall maintain the following insurance and any claims thereunder shall be adjudicated by and at the expense of it or its insurance carrier:

7




(a)    Property Insurance with respect to the Facility against loss or damage from all causes under standard “all risk” property insurance coverage with an agreed amount endorsement (such that the insurance carrier has accepted the amount of coverage and has agreed that there will be no co-insurance penalty), without exclusion for fire, lightning, windstorm, explosion, smoke damage, vehicle damage, sprinkler leakage, flood, vandalism, earthquake, malicious mischief or any other risks normally covered under an extended coverage endorsement, in amounts that are not less than the actual replacement value of the Facility and all Landlord and Tenant Personal Property associated therewith (including the cost of compliance with changes in zoning and building codes and other laws and regulations, demolition and debris removal and increased cost of construction). Additionally, if the Facility contains steam boilers, steam pipes, steam engines, steam turbines or other high pressure vessels, insurance with an agreed amount endorsement (such that the insurance carrier has accepted the amount of coverage and has agreed that there will be no co-insurance penalty), covering the major components of the central heating, air conditioning and ventilating systems, boilers, other pressure vessels, high pressure piping and machinery, elevators and escalators, if any, and other similar equipment installed in the Facility, in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of the Facility, which policies shall insure against physical damage to and loss of occupancy and use of the Facility arising out of an accident or breakdown covered thereunder;
(b)    Business Interruption and Extra Expense Coverage with respect to the Facility for loss of rental value for a period not less than eighteen (18) months, covering perils consistent with the requirements of Section 7(a), and including either an agreed amount endorsement or a waiver of any co-insurance provisions, so as to prevent Tenant, Landlord and any other insured thereunder from being a co-insurer, and providing that any covered loss thereunder shall be payable to Tenant;
(c)    Commercial General Public Liability Coverage with respect to the Facility (including products liability and broad form coverage) against claims for bodily injury, death or property damage occurring on, in or about the Facility, affording the parties protection in amounts required by the Facility Mortgagee (and Landlord agrees to negotiate the terms of such requirements with the Facility Mortgagee), but in no event greater than $1,000,000.00 per occurrence/$3,000,000.00 in the aggregate, naming Landlord as additional insured;
(d)    Professional Liability Coverage with respect to the Facility, providing for claims specifically relating to patient care and services provided by the Facility staff, its contractors and all related parties, to include coverage for medical directors with regard to their administrative duties provided to the Facility, with limits in amounts required by the Facility Mortgagee (and Landlord agrees to negotiate the terms of such requirements with the Facility Mortgagee), but in no event greater than $1,000,000.00 per occurrence/$3,000,000.00 in the aggregate, naming Landlord as an additional insured. If such coverage is purchased on a claims made basis, Tenant must show proof of the ability to purchase tail coverage to last through the statute of limitations, upon the Termination Date; and
(e)    Workers’ Compensation and Employers Liability Insurance with respect to the Facility for injuries sustained by Tenant’s employees in the course and scope of their

8




employment, as well as volunteers, and otherwise consistent with all applicable state law and meeting all other legal requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if during the first Lease Year only the premiums for the policies required in subsections (c) and (d) above shall exceed the State of Arkansas’ maximum allowable premiums (for purposes of Medicaid reimbursement) (the “Reimbursement Threshold”), then any such excess premium over the Reimbursement Threshold shall be split equally between Landlord and Tenant, and Landlord’s share of such excess premium shall be reflected as an offset in the Rent then due from Tenant.

8.    Use, Regulatory Compliance and Pre-Existing Conditions.
8.1    Permitted Use; Qualified Care. Except in the event of casualty or a Taking as provided in Sections 18 and 19 below, Tenant shall continuously use and occupy the Facility during the Term as a licensed facility engaged in the Business described on Schedule 1 with not less than the applicable number of beds shown on Schedule 1, and for ancillary services relating thereto, which may include hospice, therapy, adult day care, home care and other healthcare services, but for no other purpose (collectively, the “Permitted Use”). Tenant shall provide care, treatment and services to all residents of the Facility in a manner consistent with all applicable laws. Notwithstanding any common law or statutory right, Tenant agrees not to transfer, move or otherwise take action that reduces licensed bed complement of the Facility and Tenant agrees not to take any of the licensed beds out of service or move the beds to a different location.
8.2    Regulatory Compliance. Tenant, the Facility and the Premises shall comply in all material respects with all licensing and other laws and all covenants, conditions, restrictions and other use or maintenance requirements applicable to the Business conducted thereon and, to the extent applicable, all Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payor certification requirements, including timely filing properly completed cost and other required reports, timely paying all expenses shown thereon, and ensuring that the Facility continues to be certified for participation in Medicare and Medicaid (if applicable) throughout the Term and when it is returned to Landlord, all without any suspension, revocation, decertification or other material limitation. Further, Tenant shall not commit any act or omission that would in any material way violate any certificate of occupancy affecting the Facility, result in closure of the Business conducted at the Facility or result in the sale or transfer of all or any portion of any related certificate of need (if applicable), bed rights or other similar certificate or license. All inspection fees, costs and charges associated with a change of such licensure or certification shall be borne solely by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other language to the contrary in this Lease, the parties understand and agree that certain deficiencies or situations of non-compliance with various regulatory requirements are likely to occur from time to time in the normal course of business. Such occurrences will not constitute a breach or default by Tenant under this Lease provided that: (i) Tenant diligently takes all reasonable actions in a timely manner to cure such deficiencies or situations of non-compliance and effectuates such cure to the extent the same can be practicably accomplished; (ii) the occurrences do not otherwise result in the loss of Tenant’s ability to operate the Facility for the Permitted Use; and (iii) no Event of Default exists with respect to the non-payment of Rent.

9.    Acceptance, Maintenance, Upgrade, Alteration and Environmental.
9.1    Acceptance “AS IS”; No Liens. Tenant acknowledges that its Affiliates are presently engaged in operations similar to those to be conducted at the Facility and has expertise in such industry and, in deciding to enter into this Lease, has not relied on any representations or warranties, express or implied, of any kind from Landlord, other than as set forth in the Transfer Agreement. Tenant has investigated the Premises, has selected the Premises to its own specifications, has concluded that no improvements or modifications to them are required in order to operate the Facility, and subject to the initial Deferred Maintenance Items pursuant to Section 9.2(c)(B) below and the items set forth in Exhibit “D” attached hereto, accepts the Facility and the Premises on an “AS IS” basis and (except as set forth in the Transfer Agreement) assumes all responsibility and cost for the correction of any observed or unobserved deficiencies or violations. Notwithstanding its right to Protest set forth in Section 6.1, Tenant shall not cause or permit any lien, levy or attachment to be placed or assessed against any portion of the Premises or the operation thereof (a “Lien”) for any reason, provided that nothing in this Lease shall require Tenant to keep the Premises free of liens that may be filed as a result of Prime Landlord’s or Landlord’s action or omissions.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease, Prime Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that it has sufficient good and marketable title to the Premises, and Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that it has a sufficient good and marketable leasehold estate in the Premises, to perform their respective obligations under this Lease.

9.2    Maintenance Obligations.

(a)    Tenant’s Obligations Generally. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1 of the Transfer Agreement and subsections (b) through (f) below, Tenant shall (i) keep and maintain the Premises and the Facility in good appearance, repair and condition and maintain proper housekeeping, (ii) promptly make all repairs (interior and exterior, structural and nonstructural, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen) necessary to keep the Facility in good and working order and condition and in substantial compliance with all applicable requirements and laws relating to the business conducted thereon, including if applicable, certification for participation in Medicare and Medicaid, and (iii) keep and maintain all Landlord and Tenant Personal Property in good condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and repair and replace such property consistent with prudent industry practice as required under this Lease.
(b)    Landlord’s Obligations. Landlord and Prime Landlord shall during the Term hereof be responsible for all utility lines from point of entry into the Premises to the public mains or distribution lines.
(c)    Landlord Investment.
A.    Change in Regulation. If during the Term any governmental authority implements a new regulation or changes its interpretation or enforcement of existing regulations (including any life safety, fire code or other laws or regulations) which necessitates repairs, renovations or other improvements to the Facility (each a “Required

10




Improvement” and collectively, the “Required Improvements”), Tenant shall bear the cost of such Required Improvements up to a maximum of $50,000.00 in any Lease Year. If the cost of the Required Improvements in any Lease Year exceeds $50,000.00, Landlord shall pay the amount exceeding $50,000.00 (such excess, the “Landlord Investment”); provided, however, Tenant shall pay the Annual Yield on the Landlord Investment in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 3.3 above.
B.    Deferred Maintenance. The parties acknowledge and agree that as of the Execution Date there are certain identified items of deferred maintenance at the Premises, as listed in Exhibit “E” attached hereto and made a part hereof (each a “Deferred Maintenance Item” and together, the “Deferred Maintenance Items”). The parties hereby agree that Landlord shall complete such Deferred Maintenance Items prior to the Commencement Date at Landlord’s sole expense. The parties hereby agree that Landlord shall either complete such Deferred Maintenance Items prior to the Commencement Date at Landlord’s sole expense or, at Tenant’s election, such funds shall be paid to Tenant to complete the Deferred Maintenance Items at the Facility.
(d)    Licensing Survey Deficiency. If there is a cost required to be incurred to cure any deficiencies or violations of applicable regulation during the first Lease Year relating to the pre-Commencement Date operation or ownership of the Facility identified in any survey or re-licensing inspection by any governmental authority, which deficiencies or violations are required by any such governmental authority to be resolved as a condition to Tenant obtaining or maintaining any governmental approvals (a “Licensing Survey Deficiency”), then Landlord shall bear such cost and expenses relating to such Licensing Survey Deficiency (and Tenant shall have no obligation to pay the Annual Yield on such amount).
(e)    Asbestos Containing Materials. To the extent any of Tenant’s repairs, maintenance or Alterations (as defined below), including any Required Improvement or Deferred Maintenance Item, require the abatement, removal, disposal or encapsulation of asbestos containing materials (“ACM”) at the Facility, Landlord shall bear all costs and expenses relating to such ACM (and Tenant shall have no obligation to pay the Annual Yield on such amount).
(f)    Capital Improvement Projects. Landlord hereby agrees to consider and, subject to Landlord’s approval, to make available to Tenant on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 9.2(f) funds for specified capital improvement projects (each a “Capital Improvement Project” and collectively, the “Capital Improvement Projects”). Tenant shall obtain Landlord’s prior written consent for all Capital Improvement Projects, which consent shall be given or withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion. As a condition precedent to any disbursement to Tenant for a Capital Improvement Project, Tenant shall provide to Landlord a written request describing in detail the Capital Improvement Project(s) for which funding is sought and such information concerning the details, plans, specifications, scope, cost and payment of such Capital Improvement Projects as required by Landlord including, without limitation, such lien waivers and releases from all parties furnishing materials and/or services for the Capital Improvement Projects and such other documents as Facility Mortgagee may require. Upon approval of the specified Capital Improvement Project by Landlord in its sole discretion and the completion and documentation of any such Capital

11




Improvement Project by Tenant, monthly Rent shall increase in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 3.3 above.
9.3    Alterations by Tenant. Tenant may alter, improve, exchange, replace, modify or expand (collectively, “Alterations”) the Facility, equipment or appliances on the Premises from time to time as it may determine is desirable for the continuing and proper use and maintenance of the Premises; provided, that any Alterations in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) with respect to the Facility in any rolling twelve (12) month period shall require Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned. All Alterations shall immediately become a part of the Premises and the property of Landlord subject to this Lease. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.2, the cost of all Alterations or other purchases, whether undertaken as an on-going licensing, Medicare, Medicaid or other regulatory requirement, or otherwise, shall be borne solely by Tenant. All Alterations shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner in compliance with all applicable laws and the insurance required under this Lease.
9.4    Hazardous Materials. Tenant’s use of the Premises shall comply with all Hazardous Materials Laws, except for any items set forth on Exhibit “D”. If any Environmental Activities occur or are suspected to have occurred in violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws by Tenant during the Term or if Tenant has received notice of any Hazardous Materials Claim against any portion of the Premises as a result of Tenant’s acts or omissions during the Term, Tenant shall promptly obtain all permits and approvals necessary to remedy any such actual or suspected problem through the removal of Hazardous Materials or otherwise, and upon Landlord’s approval of the remediation plan, remedy any such problem to the satisfaction of Landlord and all applicable governmental authorities, in accordance with all Hazardous Materials Laws and good business practices. During the Term, Tenant shall immediately advise Landlord in writing of: (a) any Environmental Activities in violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws; (b) any Hazardous Materials Claims against Tenant or any portion of the Premises; (c) any remedial action taken by Tenant in response to any Hazardous Materials Claims or any Hazardous Materials on, under or about any portion of the Premises in violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws; (d) Tenant’s discovery of any occurrence or condition on or in the vicinity of any portion of the Premises that materially increase the risk that any portion of the Premises will be exposed to Hazardous Materials; and (e) all communications to or from Tenant, any governmental authority or any other Person relating to Hazardous Materials Laws or Hazardous Materials Claims with respect to any portion of the Premises, including copies thereof. Landlord shall have the right, and except for any items noted on Exhibit “D” at Tenant’s sole cost and expense (including, without limitation, Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) and with counsel chosen by Landlord, to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, any legal proceedings or actions initiated in connection with any Hazardous Materials Claims. Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that: (i) to Landlord’s knowledge, there are not pending claims or causes of action arising out or relating to the Facility or the Premises as of the Commencement Date; and (ii) to Landlord’s knowledge, no Environmental Activities in violation of any Hazardous Materials Laws have occurred prior to the Commencement Date which have not been remedied in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Tenant be responsible for conditions of the Premises in existence prior to the Commencement Date, and, if required by law, Landlord hereby agrees to remedy any such actual

12




or suspected problem through the removal of Hazardous Materials at Landlord’s sole cost and expense.
 
10.    Tenant Property. Tenant shall obtain and install all items of furniture, fixtures, supplies and equipment not included as Landlord Personal Property as shall be necessary or reasonably appropriate to operate the Facility in compliance with this Lease (“Tenant Personal Property”, which collectively with the “Tenant Intangible Property” shall be referred to herein as “Tenant Property”.) As used herein, “Tenant Intangible Property” means all the following at any time owned by Tenant in connection with its use of any portion of the Premises: Medicare, Medicaid and other accounts and proceeds thereof; rents, profits, income or revenue derived from such operation or use; all documents, chattel paper, instruments, contract rights (including contracts with residents, employees and third-party payors), deposit accounts, general intangibles and chooses in action; refunds of any Taxes or Other Charges for periods of time during the Term; and licenses and permits necessary or desirable for Tenant’s use of any portion of the Premises, including licensed Medicaid beds (if applicable). Except as may be allowed under common law, Landlord shall have no lien or security interest in or to the Tenant Property, and any such common law lien or security interest of Landlord shall be automatically subordinate to the lien and security interest of any third party lender providing to Tenant a working capital line of credit for financing the Tenant Property (a “Tenant Financing”), whether such Tenant Financing exists as of the Commencement Date or future Tenant Financing, and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. Notwithstanding and in addition to the foregoing, with respect to a Tenant Financing, Landlord and Prime Landlord agree, at Tenant’s request, to execute such instruments as are reasonably requested by Tenant or Tenant’s lender providing the Tenant Financing to evidence Landlord’s and/or Prime Landlord’s waiver of any statutory landlord’s lien or similar lien, or other security interest on the Tenant Property.
11.    Financial, Management and Regulatory Reports. Tenant shall provide Landlord with the reports listed in Exhibit “F” at the time described therein, and such other information about it or the operations of the Premises and Business as Landlord may reasonably request from time to time, including such information requested in connection with any financing of the Premises sought by Landlord. All financial information provided by Tenant shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and shall be submitted electronically in the form of unrestricted, unlocked “.xls” spreadsheets created using Microsoft Excel (2003 or newer editions). If Tenant or any Related Lease Affiliate becomes subject to any reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) during the Term, it shall concurrently deliver to Landlord such reports as are delivered pursuant to applicable securities laws. Similarly, should Landlord or its parent, AdCare Health Systems, Inc., be subject to any particular reporting requirements of the SEC during the Term for which it needs reports, documentation or other information from Tenant, Tenant agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver such reports, documentation and information within ten (10) days after Landlord’s request for the same.

13




12.    Representations and Warranties. Each party represents and warrants to the other that: (a) this Lease and all other documents executed or to be executed by it in connection herewith have been duly authorized and shall be binding upon it; (b) it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its formation and is duly authorized and qualified to perform this Lease within the state where the Facility is located; and (c) neither this Lease nor any other document executed or to be executed in connection herewith violates the terms of any other agreement of such party.
13.    Events of Default. So long as there is no Event of Default, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term, free of any claim or other action not caused or created by Tenant or pursuant to Sections 18 or 19. The occurrence of any of the following events will constitute an “Event of Default” on the part of Tenant, and there shall be no cure period therefor except as otherwise expressly provided:

14




(a)    Tenant’s failure to pay (i) any Rent within five (5) business days after such Rent is due or (ii) any Taxes, Other Charges or other required payments when due; provided Tenant has received written information relating to such Taxes or Other Charges;
(b)    (i) The revocation, suspension or material limitation of any license required for the operation of the Facility or the certification of the Facility for provider status under Medicare or Medicaid, if applicable; provided, however, if any revocation, suspension or limitation is curable by Tenant it shall not constitute an Event of Default if Tenant promptly provides to Landlord, copies of any such notices and Tenant’s plan of correction and commences to cure such breach and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to the completion thereof or until a final adjudication by the relevant governmental agency with no opportunity for further appeal by Tenant; (ii) the closure of a material portion of the Business other than during a period of repair or reconstruction following damage or destruction thereto or a Taking (as hereinafter defined); (iii) the sale or transfer of all or any portion of any certificate of need, bed rights or other similar certificate or license relating to the Facility; or (iv) the use of any portion of the Facility other than for the Permitted Use;
(c)    Any material suspension, termination or restriction placed upon Tenant with respect to the Premises or the ability to admit residents or patients at the Facility (e.g., an admissions ban or non-payment for new admissions by Medicare or Medicaid resulting from an inspection survey, if applicable); provided, however, if any such material suspension or restriction is curable by Tenant it shall not constitute an Event of Default if Tenant promptly commences to cure such breach and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to the completion thereof or until a final adjudication by the relevant governmental agency with no opportunity for further appeal by Tenant;
(d)    A material default by any Related Lease Affiliate under any Related Lease which is not cured within any applicable cure period specified therein;
(e)    Any material misrepresentation by Tenant under this Lease or material misstatement or omission of fact in any written report, notice or communication from Tenant to Landlord;
(f)    The failure to perform or comply with the provisions of Sections 7 or 17;
(g)    (i) Tenant shall generally not pay its debts in accordance with specified payment terms or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally, or shall make an assignment of all or substantially all of its property for the benefit of creditors; or (ii) a receiver, trustee or liquidator shall be appointed for Tenant or the Facility, if within five (5) business days of such appointment Tenant does not inform Landlord in writing that it intends to cause such appointment to be discharged or such discharge is not diligently prosecuted to completion within sixty (60) days after the date of such appointment; (iii) the filing by Tenant of a voluntary petition under any federal bankruptcy or state law to be adjudicated as bankrupt or for any arrangement or other debtor’s relief; or (iv) the involuntary filing of such a petition against Tenant by any other party, unless Tenant within five (5) business days of such filing informs Landlord in writing of its

15




intent to cause such petition to be dismissed, such dismissal is diligently prosecuted and such petition is dismissed within ninety (90) days after filing; or
(h)    The failure to perform or comply with any other provision of this Lease not requiring the payment of money unless (i) within five (5) business days of Tenant’s receipt of a notice of default from Landlord, Tenant gives Landlord notice of its intent to cure such default; and (ii) Tenant cures it either (x) within thirty (30) days after such notice from Landlord or (y) if such default cannot with due diligence be so cured because of the nature of the default or delays beyond the control of Tenant and cure after such period will not have a material adverse effect upon the Premises or the Business, then such default shall not constitute an Event of Default if Tenant uses its reasonable best efforts to cure such default by promptly commencing and diligently pursuing such cure to the completion thereof and cures it within ninety (90) days after such notice from Landlord.
(i)    The failure of Aria Health Consulting, LLC (“AHC”) to make any payment of principal or interest when due under that certain Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,000,000.00 dated as of July 1, 2015 given by AHC in favor of AdCare Health Systems, Inc.
14.    Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Landlord may exercise all rights and remedies under this Lease and the laws of the state where the Facility is located that are available to a lessor of real and personal property in the event of a default by its lessee, and as to the Tenant Property, all remedies granted under the laws of such state(s) to a secured party under its Uniform Commercial Code. Landlord shall have no duty to mitigate damages unless required by applicable law and shall not be responsible or liable for failure to relet the Premises or to collect any rent due upon any such reletting. Tenant shall pay Landlord, immediately upon demand, all reasonable expenses incurred by it in obtaining possession and reletting any of the Premises, including fees, commissions and costs of attorneys, architects, agents and brokers.
14.1    General. Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation) to do any of the following during an Event of Default: (a) sue for the specific performance of any covenant of Tenant as to which it is in breach including the acceleration of all Rent which would have accrued after such termination and all obligations and liabilities of Tenant under this Lease which survive the termination of the Term; (b) enter upon any portion of the Premises, terminate this Lease, dispossess Tenant from the Premises through appropriate legal procedures and/or collect money damages by reason of Tenant’s breach including the acceleration of all Rent which would have accrued after such termination and all obligations and liabilities of Tenant under this Lease which survive the termination of the Term; (c) elect to leave this Lease in place and sue for Rent and other money damages as the same come due; and (d) (after repossession of the Premises pursuant to clause (b) above and whether or not this Lease has been terminated) relet any portion of the Premises to such tenant(s), for such term(s) (which may be greater or less than the remaining balance of the Term), rent, conditions (which may include concessions or free rent) and uses as it may determine in its sole discretion and collect and receive any rents payable by reason of such reletting.

16




14.2    Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. Any notice or cure period provided herein shall run concurrently with any provided by applicable law. No failure of Landlord to insist at any time upon the strict performance of any provision of this Lease or to exercise any option, right, power or remedy contained herein shall be construed as a waiver, modification or relinquishment thereof as to any similar or different breach (future or otherwise) by Tenant. Landlord’s receipt of and Tenant’s payment of any rent or other sum due hereunder (including any late charge) with knowledge of any breach shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease shall be effective unless expressed in a writing signed by it.
14.3    Performance of Tenant’s Obligations. If Tenant at any time shall fail to make any payment or perform any act on its part required to be made or performed under this Lease, then Landlord may, without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations or default hereunder, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant after delivering Tenant thirty (30) days’ notice with an opportunity to cure, and enter upon any portion of the Premises for the purpose of taking all such action as may be reasonably necessary. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary and incidental costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the performance of any such act by it, together with interest at the Agreed Rate (as defined in Section 5 hereof) from the date of the making of such payment or the incurring of such costs and expenses, shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord upon Landlord’s written demand therefor.
15.    Provisions on Termination.
15.1    Surrender of Possession. On the Termination Date, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord or its designee possession of (a) the Facility and associated Landlord Personal Property in a neat and clean condition and in as good a condition as existed on the Commencement Date, ordinary wear and tear excepted, (b) a fully operational, licensed and certified (if applicable) business at the Facility including, at Tenant’s sole cost, any Alterations necessitated by, or imposed in connection with, a change of ownership inspection survey for the transfer of operation of any portion of the Facility to Landlord or its designee, and (c) all patient charts and resident records along with appropriate resident consents if necessary and copies of all of its books and records relating to the Business and the Premises. Accordingly, except as required to secure accounts receivable financing with respect to the Facility, Tenant shall not at any time during or after the Term seek to transfer, surrender, allow to lapse, or grant any security interest or any other interest in and to the licenses, permits or certifications relating to the Business or the Premises (except as may be required in connection with any Tenant Financing) nor shall Tenant commit or omit any act that would jeopardize the Business or any licensure or certification of the Facility. Tenant shall cooperate fully with Landlord or its designee in transferring or obtaining all necessary licenses and certifications for Landlord or its designee, and Tenant shall comply with all requests for an orderly transfer of the Business, Facility licenses, and Medicare and Medicaid certifications and possession at the time of its surrender of the Premises to Landlord or its designee. Subject to all applicable laws, Tenant hereby assigns, effective upon the Termination Date, all rights to operate the Facility to Landlord

17




or its designee, including all required licenses and permits and all rights to apply for or otherwise obtain them, and all other nonproprietary Tenant Intangible Property relating to any portion of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other language to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall not be obligated to assign (i) any national service contracts or other national vendor arrangements that apply to facilities other than the Facility, (ii) any proprietary or licensed software, computer programs or hardware, discs and/or similar technology personal to Tenant, (iii) Tenant’s employee pagers, manuals, training materials, policies, procedures and materials relating to the Facility, (iv) Tenant’s marketing studies, analysis and similar materials related to Tenant’s business conducted at the Premises and the market and potential market therefor, or (v) any proprietary marks, trade names or other intellectual property of Tenant and/or its Affiliates.
15.2    Removal of Tenant Personal Property. Provided that no Event of Default then exists, in connection with the surrender of the Premises, Tenant may upon at least five (5) business days prior notice to Landlord remove from the Premises in a workmanlike manner all Tenant Personal Property, leaving the Premises in good and presentable condition and appearance, including repair of any damage caused by such removal; provided that Landlord shall have the right and option to purchase the Tenant Personal Property for its then net book value during such five (5) business day notice period, in which case Tenant shall so convey the Tenant Personal Property to Landlord by executing a bill of sale in a form reasonably required by Landlord. If there is any Event of Default then existing, Tenant may not remove any Tenant Personal Property from the Premises and instead will, on demand from Landlord, convey it to Landlord for no additional consideration by executing a bill of sale in a form reasonably required by Landlord. Title to any Tenant Personal Property which is not removed by Tenant as permitted above upon the expiration of the Term shall, at Landlord’s election, vest in Landlord; provided, however, that Landlord may remove and store or dispose any or all of such Tenant Personal Property which is not so removed by Tenant without obligation or accounting to Tenant.
15.3    Management of Premises. Commencing on the Termination Date, Landlord or its designee, upon written notice to Tenant, may elect to assume the responsibilities and obligations for the management and operation of the Business, and Tenant agrees to reasonably cooperate to accomplish the transfer of such management and operation without interrupting the operation of the Business. Tenant agrees that Landlord or its designee may, pending the issuance of new licenses and certifications to Landlord or its designee, manage and operate the Business on a triple net basis, and shall be entitled to all revenues of the Business during such period, and to use any and all licenses, certifications or provider agreements issued to Tenant by any federal, state or other governmental authority for operation of the Business, if permitted by any such governmental authority, at no additional cost or liability to Tenant; provided that Landlord hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Tenant against any losses, claims or damages resulting from Landlord’s or its designees use of Tenant’s license or provider agreements during such period. Tenant shall not commit any act or be remiss in the undertaking of any act that would jeopardize any licensure or certification of the Facility, and Tenant shall comply with all requests for an orderly transfer of any and all Facility and other licenses, Medicare and Medicaid certifications and possession of the Premises at the time of any such surrender. If Landlord or its designee exercises the right described above in this Section, the provisions of this Section shall be self-operative and shall constitute a management agreement between Tenant, on the one hand, and Landlord or its designee, on the other

18




hand, on the terms set forth above; provided, however, that upon the request of Landlord or its designee, the parties shall negotiate and enter into a separate management agreement on the terms set forth herein and to the extent on such other terms and provisions as may be reasonably agreed to by Landlord or its designee and Tenant.
15.4    Holding Over. If Tenant shall remain in possession of the Premises after the Termination Date, such possession shall be a month-to-month tenancy during which time Tenant shall pay as rental on the first (1st) business day of each month one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the monthly Rent payable with respect to the last Lease Year, all additional charges accruing during the month and all other sums, if any, payable by Tenant pursuant to this Lease. Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express or implied, of Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the Termination Date, nor shall anything contained herein be deemed to limit Landlord’s remedies.
15.5    Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants and other obligations of Tenant and Landlord under this Lease shall survive the Termination Date.
16.    Certain Landlord Rights.
16.1    Entry and Examination of Records. Landlord and its representatives may enter any portion of the Premises at any reasonable time after reasonable notice to Tenant to inspect the Premises for compliance or to exhibit the Premises for sale, lease or mortgaging or for any other reason; provided that no such notice shall be required in the event of an emergency, upon an Event of Default or to post notices of non-responsibility under any mechanic’s or materialman’s lien law. No such entry shall unreasonably interfere with residents, patients, patient care or the Tenant’s operation of the Facility. During normal business hours, Tenant will permit Landlord and its representatives, inspectors and consultants to examine all contracts, books and financial and other records (wherever kept) relating to Tenant’s operations of the Facility. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that any inspection or other entry onto the Premises by Landlord or its agents shall be subject to all laws and insurance requirements, including without limitation, the Administrative Simplification provisions of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) and any other security, health, safety or resident confidentiality requirements. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that neither Landlord nor its agents shall need access to, nor shall they use or disclose, any PHI of Tenant. In the event Landlord or its Agents, regardless as to whether the disclosure is inadvertent or otherwise, discovers any PHI, Landlord agrees to take reasonable steps to maintain and to require its Agents to maintain, the privacy and confidentiality of such PHI. The parties agree that the foregoing does not create, and is not intended to create, a “business associate” relationship between the parties as that term is defined by the Privacy Standards. “Protected health information” or “PHI” shall have the meaning defined by the Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information, 45 C.F.R. Part 160 and Subparts A and E of Part 164 (the “Privacy Standards”), as promulgated by the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) pursuant to HIPAA. As used in this Lease, “Agents” means such party’s agents, contractors, subcontractors, directors, officers and employees.
16.2    Grant Liens. This Lease shall be subordinate to the right, title, and interest of any Facility Mortgagee. Tenant shall at any time hereafter, on demand of Prime Landlord or the

19




Facility Mortgagee, without expense to Tenant, execute any instruments which may reasonably be required by such party for the purpose of evidencing the subordination of this Lease to the lien or security of such party, so long as such instrument provides that the Facility Mortgagee shall recognize the rights of Tenant under this Lease so long as no Event of Default shall exist and further provided that Tenant’s occupancy and other rights hereunder shall not be disturbed if any such Person takes possession of the Premises through foreclosure proceeding or otherwise. If the holder of any of said instruments or deeds to secure debt shall hereafter succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Lease or to Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease, Tenant shall, at the option of such holder or a purchaser at any foreclosure or sale under power, attorn to and recognize such successor as Tenant’s landlord under this Lease, provided that such attornment shall be conditioned upon the Facility Mortgagee and Landlord executing and delivering to Tenant a commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other language to the contrary in this Lease, with Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, the security interests and liens granted to Landlord in this Section 16.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be subordinated to any first priority security interest granted in connection with accounts receivable financing secured by Tenant so long as (a) Tenant’s financiers execute an intercreditor agreement with the Facility Mortgagee in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Facility Mortgagee, and (b) no Event of Default exists hereunder.
16.3    Estoppel Certificates. Each party agrees, within ten (10) business days following written request by the other, to have an authorized representative execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a written statement certifying (a) that this Lease, together with any specified modifications, is in full force and effect, (b) the dates to which Rent and additional charges have been paid, (c) that no default by either party exists or specifying any such default, and (d) as to such other matters as the requesting party may reasonably request.
16.4    Conveyance Release. If Landlord or any successor owner shall transfer any portion of the Premises in accordance with this Lease and in connection therewith cause the successor owner to assume Landlord’s obligations hereunder in writing, they shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer, which instead shall thereupon be binding upon the new owner.
17.    Assignment and Subletting. Except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Lease, without Landlord’s prior written consent, in its sole and absolute discretion, Tenant shall not assign this Lease, or Lease all or any part of the Premises, or permit the use of the Premises by any party other than Tenant. This prohibition includes an assignment or subletting to or by a receiver or trustee in any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, or other proceeding. For purposes of this Section, a sale or transfer of all or a controlling ownership interest in Tenant or a merger or other combination by Tenant or a sale of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets in lieu thereof shall be deemed an assignment or other transfer of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may, without Landlord’s prior written consent, assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof to an Affiliate of Tenant if all of the following are first satisfied: (w) such Affiliate fully assumes Tenant’s obligations hereunder; (x) Tenant remains fully liable hereunder; (y) the use of the applicable portion of the Premises remains unchanged; and (z) Landlord in its reasonable discretion

20




shall have approved the form and content of all documents for such assignment or sublease and received an executed counterpart thereof. For the absence of doubt, Tenant shall be permitted to enter into a management agreement with an Affiliate of Tenant without obtaining Landlord’s consent thereto.
18.    Damage by Fire or Other Casualty. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any damage or destruction of any portion of the Premises (a “Casualty”) and diligently repair or reconstruct such portion of the Premises to a like or better condition than existed prior to such damage or destruction. Any net insurance proceeds payable with respect to the Casualty shall be paid directly to Landlord and, if an Event of Default has not occurred hereunder, may be used for the repair or reconstruction of the applicable portion of the Premises pursuant to Landlord’s disbursement requirements and subject to the provisions of the Facility Mortgage Documents and the release of insurance proceeds by the Facility Mortgagee, if any. If such proceeds are insufficient, Tenant shall provide the required additional funds; if they are more than sufficient, the surplus shall belong and be paid to Tenant. Except as expressly provided in the last sentence of this Section 18, Tenant shall not have any right under this Lease, and hereby waives all rights under applicable law, to abate, reduce or offset Rent by reason of any damage or destruction of any portion of the Premises by reason of an insured or uninsured Casualty. If the Facility Mortgagee does not agree to release all of the insurance proceeds to reimburse Tenant and Landlord does not agree to reimburse Tenant up to the amount of such insurance proceeds in the event of a Casualty that renders the Facility unsuitable for its Permitted Use, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease and remove the Facility from the Portfolio. Upon the removal of the Facility from the Portfolio, this Lease shall be of no further force or affect, except for any obligations or liability of any party hereunder that accrued on or prior to the date of the Casualty. In the event of a Casualty that does not render the Facility unsuitable for its Permitted Use, Tenant shall restore the Facility to substantially the same condition as existed immediately before the partial Casualty in accordance with the provisions of this Section 18, and the Rent shall be reduced on a pro rata basis based upon the number of beds removed from service and otherwise taking into consideration all relevant factors affecting the Facility resulting from such partial Casualty.
19.    Condemnation. Except as provided to the contrary in this Section 19, this Lease shall not terminate and shall remain in full force and effect in the event of a taking or condemnation of the Premises (a “Taking”), or any portion thereof, and Tenant hereby waives all rights under applicable law to abate, reduce or offset rent by reason of such Taking. If during the Term all or substantially all (a “Complete Taking”) or a smaller portion (a “Partial Taking”) of the Premises is taken or condemned by any competent public or quasi-public authority, then (a) in the case of a Complete Taking, Tenant may at its election made within thirty (30) days of the effective date of such Taking, terminate this Lease and remove the Facility from the Portfolio effective as of the effective date of such termination, or (b) in the case of a Partial Taking, the Rent shall be abated to the same extent as the resulting diminution in Fair Market Value of the applicable portion of the Premises. The resulting diminution in Fair Market Value on the effective date of a Partial Taking shall be as established pursuant to Exhibit “G”. Landlord alone shall be entitled to receive and retain any award for a taking or condemnation other than a temporary taking; provided, however, Tenant shall be entitled to submit its own claim in the event of any such taking or condemnation with respect to the value of Tenant’s leasehold interest in any portion of the Premises and/or the

21




relocation costs incurred by Tenant as a result thereof. In the event of a temporary taking of less than all or substantially all of the Premises, Tenant shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all awards for the temporary taking and the Rent due under this Lease shall be not be abated during the period of such temporary taking.
20.    Indemnification.
20.1    Tenant Indemnification. Tenant agrees to protect, indemnify, defend and save harmless Landlord, its members, managers, Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, agents and employees (the “Landlord Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all foreseeable or unforeseeable liability, expense, loss, cost, deficiency, fine, penalty or damage (including consequential or punitive damages) of any kind or nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, from any third party suits, claims or demands, on account of any matter or thing, action or failure to act arising out of or in connection with Tenant’s occupancy of the Facility in accordance with this Lease, the Premises (arising after the Commencement Date) or the operations of Tenant on any portion of the Premises, including, without limitation, (a) the breach by Tenant of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other obligations hereunder, (b) any Protest, (c) all Environmental Activities on any portion of the Premises by Tenant, Hazardous Materials Claims caused by Tenant or violations by Tenant of a Hazardous Materials Law with respect to any portion of the Premises (which occurred on or after the Commencement Date), and (d) upon or following the Termination Date, the correction of all deficiencies of a physical matter identified by and any liability assessed or asserted by, any governmental agency or Medicare or Medicaid providers as a result of or arising out or in connection with this Lease or the related change in ownership inspection and audit (including any overpayment to any Medicare, Medicaid or other third party payor). Tenant, at its expense, shall contest, resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Parties with counsel acceptable to Landlord and shall not, under any circumstances, compromise or otherwise dispose of any suit, action or proceeding without obtaining Landlord’s written consent. Landlord, at its election and sole cost and expense, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the defense of any claim for which Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Parties are indemnified hereunder. If Tenant does not act promptly and completely to satisfy its obligations hereunder, Landlord may resist and defend any such claims or causes of action against Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Party at Tenant’s sole cost.
20.2    Excluded Events. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have no obligation to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any person or entity with respect to the Excluded Events. “Excluded Events” shall include: (i) Landlord’s breach of its duty of maintenance as contained in Sections 9.2 (b) through (e) above; (ii) the acts or omissions of Prime Landlord, Landlord or their respective agents, employees, contractors, representatives, permittees, licensees, officers, directors or other lessees while on or about the Premises or surrounding areas, whether during an inspection, while performing repairs, or otherwise; (iii) for matters covered by workers compensation insurance; and (iv) matters described on Exhibit “D” attached hereto.

21.    Disputes. If any party brings any action to interpret or enforce this Lease, or for damages for any alleged breach, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs as awarded by the court in addition to all other recovery, damages and costs.
EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY AGAINST THE OTHER IN CONNECTION WITH ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS LEASE, INCLUDING RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES, TENANT’S USE AND OCCUPANCY OF ANY PORTION OF THE PREMISES, OR ANY CLAIM OF INJURY OR DAMAGE RELATING TO THE FOREGOING OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY REMEDY.

23.    Compliance with Facility Mortgage Documents.
(a)    If Landlord, Prime Landlord or an Affiliate of Landlord refinances the Facility, including with a loan that is insured by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), Tenant acknowledges and agrees that it shall execute and deliver any and all documentation required by a Facility Mortgagee or HUD in connection therewith to obtain the approval of this Lease; provided, however, Tenant shall not incur any material expense or suffer a material adverse economic impact as a result of such cooperation.
(b)    Tenant acknowledges that any Facility Mortgage Documents executed by Landlord, Prime Landlord or an Affiliate of Landlord may impose certain obligations on the “borrower” or other counterparty thereunder to comply with or cause the operator and/or lessee of a Facility to comply with all representations, covenants and warranties contained therein relating to such Facility and the operator and/or lessee of such Facility. Accordingly, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant agrees to comply with those certain Facility Mortgage Document covenants as more specifically set forth on Exhibit “H” attached hereto and made a part hereof, for so long as any Facility Mortgage encumbers the Premises or any portion thereof or interest therein. Tenant agrees that the requirements, expressly including, without limitation, insurance, affirmative financial, occupancy or other performance requirements or covenants, set forth on Exhibit “H” shall prevail to the extent of any conflict with any other express term of this Lease. If Landlord enters into any new Facility Mortgage that would result in a change to the requirements on Exhibit “H” or that would otherwise conflict with the terms and provisions of this Lease, the parties agree to cooperate to amend this Lease to so reflect such new requirements, provided that Landlord and Tenant shall not agree to any changes that would materially or adversely impact Tenant’s operation of the Facility pursuant to the terms of this Lease, including with respect to Tenant’s insurance or other costs.
(c)    Landlord acknowledges that (i) the Facility Mortgage Documents shall include no liens on the Tenant Property and (ii) any Facility Mortgagee shall enter into an intercreditor agreement with any lender of Tenant requesting same.
24.    Cooperation. Tenant agrees that should Landlord and Landlord’s Affiliates desire to consolidate all of their subleases with Tenant and Tenant’s Affiliates into one master Lease, Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and Landlord’s Affiliates in so documenting such consolidation, provided, however, that such documentation does not result in any material cost to Tenant as a result of such cooperation.

24




25.    Miscellaneous. This Lease has been freely and fairly negotiated, and all provisions shall be interpreted according to their fair meaning and shall not be strictly construed against any party. While nothing contained in this Lease should be deemed or construed to constitute an extension of credit by Landlord to Tenant, if a portion of any payment made to Landlord is deemed to violate any applicable laws regarding usury, such portion shall be held by Landlord to pay the future obligations of Tenant as such obligations arise and if Tenant discharges and performs all obligations hereunder, such funds will be reimbursed (without interest) to Tenant on the Termination Date. If any part of this Lease shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect. Time is of the essence, and whenever action must be taken (including the giving of notice or the delivery of documents) hereunder during a certain period of time or by a particular date that ends or occurs on a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, then such period or date shall be extended until the immediately following business day. Whenever the words “including”, “include” or “includes” are used in this Lease, they shall be interpreted in a non-exclusive manner as though the words “without limitation” immediately followed. Whenever the words day or days are used in this Lease, they shall mean “calendar day” or “calendar days” unless expressly provided to the contrary. The titles and headings in this Lease are for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision. Unless otherwise expressly provided, references to any “Section” mean a section of this Lease (including all subsections), to any “Exhibit” or “Schedule” mean an exhibit or schedule attached hereto or to “Medicare” or “Medicaid” include any successor program. If more than one Person is Tenant hereunder, their liability and obligations hereunder shall be joint and several. Promptly upon the request of either party and at its expense, the parties shall prepare, enter into and record a suitable short form memorandum of this Lease. This Lease (a) contains the entire agreement of the parties (together with the Transfer Agreement) as to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous verbal or written agreements or understandings, (b) may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same document, (c) may only be amended by a writing executed by the parties, (d) shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the parties, (e) shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Arkansas, and (f) incorporates by this reference any Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto.
26.    Relationship of Lease and Prime Lease. Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that Landlord has the right, power and authority to execute and deliver this Lease and the right to sublease the Premises to Tenant as contemplated herein for the entire Term of this Lease. Landlord shall not terminate or permit the Prime Lease to be terminated, or modify or amend the Prime Lease. Landlord covenants and agrees to comply with the provisions of the Prime Lease in all respects. Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Tenant and its members, managers, officers, owners and agents from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, expenses or liabilities arising out of the non-compliance of the Landlord with the terms and provisions of the Prime Lease. Prime Landlord hereby consents to this Lease and the covenants and provisions contained herein. In order to assure Tenant’s possession of the Premises upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, Prime Landlord agrees to execute and deliver, prior to the Commencement Date, the Recognition Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “I”.

25




27.    Incorporation by Reference. If any of the express provisions of this Lease shall conflict with any of the provisions of the Prime Lease, such conflict shall be resolved in every instance in favor of the express provisions of this Lease. Prime Landlord agrees that the Prime Lease shall be automatically amended to give full force and effect to Tenant’s rights under this Lease.
28.    Prior Acts and Existing Conditions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant shall not be responsible for and Landlord and Prime Landlord hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Tenant against (i) any conditions existing at the Premises prior to the Commencement Date and (ii) any obligations or matters arising or accruing prior to the Commencement Date, including, without limitation, the Deferred Maintenance Items, injury to person or property and the release of Hazardous Materials at the Premises.
29.    Quiet Enjoyment. Tenant, upon paying the Rent and all other charges herein provided, and for observing and keeping the covenants, agreements, terms and conditions of this Lease on its part to be performed, shall lawfully and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises during the Term, and shall enjoy its rights under this Lease without hindrance by Landlord or Prime Landlord or by any other person or persons.
30.    Exhibits. The Parties acknowledge that all exhibits will not be attached at the time this Lease is executed. All exhibits shall be subject to the sole discretion of each Party.
31.    Tail Coverage. On or before July 31, 2015, Landlord agrees to provide to Tenant evidence of the continuation of insurance for general liability and professional liability for claims which may be made as a result of Landlord’s operation of the Facility prior to the Commencement Date, with minimum limits equal to $500,000.00, and all such insurance policies shall name Tenant and Aria Health Group, LLC as additional insureds. All policies of insurance required pursuant to this Section 31 shall not expire until after the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations, including any tolling period. Landlord agrees to provide, not less than ten (10) days prior written notice of cancellation, non-renewal or amendment to any policy including, without limitation, any amendment that would reduce the scope or limit coverage or remove any endorsement to any policy or cause any policy to no longer be in full force and effect or fail to be renewed. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may (i) provide self-insured continuation coverage and (ii) from time to time replace insurers as long as the required limits and deductibles stated herein remain unchanged.
Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the following terms and conditions shall apply to Landlord’s self-insured tail liability with regard to professional or general liability incidents which occurred prior to the Commencement Date, for which Tenant is indemnified as set forth in Section 7.13 of the Transfer Agreement: (i) such liability shall not be funded or supported by a letter of credit or other collateral, (ii) such liability, since not actual insurance coverage, shall not name Tenant or its affiliates as additional insureds, (iii) Landlord will not provide excess coverage and (iv) claims under such liability will not be limited to $500,000.00 and will be managed by Sedgwick Claims Management Services (“Sedgwick”) (or such other claims management services as may be chosen by Landlord). If a claim is reported, Landlord shall advise Tenant of such claim and Sedgwick shall (i) collect information to defend the claim, (ii) select legal counsel (if needed), (iii) evaluate the potential liability and (iv) recommend to Landlord and its parent company, AdCare Health

26




Systems, Inc. (“ADK”) a liability reserve amount. ADK will then recognize the potential liability on its balance sheet by creating a loss reserve and all settlements and/or judgments will be paid out of ADK’s general funds. ADK shall provide Tenant with evidence of such recognition of liability on its balance sheet. Any claims brought by Tenant or its affiliates relating to the operation of the Facility prior to the Commencement Date shall be brought in accordance with the Transfer Agreement.

FAIR MARKET VALUE

Fair Market Value” means the fair market value of the Premises or applicable portion thereof on a specified date as agreed to by the parties, or failing such agreement within ten (10) days of such date, as established pursuant the following appraisal process. Each party shall within ten (10) days after written demand by the other party select one MAI Appraiser to participate in the determination of Fair Market Value. For all purposes under this Lease, the Fair Market Value shall be the fair market value of the Premises or applicable portion thereof unencumbered by this Lease. Within ten (10) days of such selection, the MAI Appraisers so selected by the parties shall select a third (3rd) MAI Appraiser. The three (3) selected MAI Appraisers shall each determine the Fair Market Value of the Premises or applicable portion thereof within thirty (30) days of the selection of the third appraiser. To the extent consistent with sound appraisal practices as then existing at the time of any such appraisal, and if requested by Landlord, such appraisal shall be made on a basis consistent with the basis on which the Premises or applicable portion thereof were appraised at the time of their acquisition by Landlord. Tenant shall pay the fees and expenses of any MAI Appraiser it retains pursuant to this Exhibit. Landlord shall pay the fees and expenses of any MAI Appraiser it retains pursuant to this Exhibit. Each party shall pay half the fees and expenses of the third MAI Appraiser selected by the respective MAI Appraisers selected by each of the parties.

If either party fails to select a MAI Appraiser within the time period set forth in the foregoing paragraph, the MAI Appraiser selected by the other party shall alone determine the fair market value of the Premises or applicable portion thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Exhibit and the Fair Market Value so determined shall be binding upon the parties. If the MAI Appraisers selected by the parties are unable to agree upon a third (3rd) MAI Appraiser within the time period set forth in the foregoing paragraph, either party shall have the right to apply to the presiding judge of the court of original trial jurisdiction in the county in which the Premises or applicable portion thereof are located to name the third (3rd) MAI Appraiser. The cost of such application to the presiding judge shall be equally shared by the parties.

Within five (5) days after completion of the third (3rd) MAI Appraiser’s appraisal, all three (3) MAI Appraisers shall meet and a majority of the MAI Appraisers shall attempt to determine the fair market value of the Premises or applicable portion thereof. If a majority are unable to determine the fair market value at such meeting, the three (3) appraisals shall be added together and their total divided by three (3). The resulting quotient shall be the Fair Market Value. If, however, either or both of the low appraisal or the high appraisal are more than ten percent (10%) lower or higher than the middle appraisal, any such lower or higher appraisal shall be disregarded. If only one (1) appraisal is disregarded, the remaining two (2) appraisals shall be added together and their total divided by two (2), and the resulting quotient shall be such Fair Market Value. If both the lower appraisal and higher appraisal are disregarded as provided herein, the middle appraisal shall be such Fair Market Value. In any event, the result of the foregoing appraisal process shall be final and binding.

MAI Appraiser” shall mean an appraiser licensed or otherwise qualified to do business in the state(s) where the Premises or applicable portion thereof are located and who has substantial experience in performing appraisals of facilities similar to the Premises or applicable portion thereof and is certified as a member of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers or certified as a SRPA by the Society of Real Estate Appraisers, or, if such organizations no longer exist or certify appraisers, such successor organization or such other organization as is approved by Landlord.
