The execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement in accordance with its terms have been approved by all necessary action of each Seller under its Charter Documents and do not and will not result in a breach of the terms and conditions of, nor constitute a default under or violation of, Sellers’ Charter Documents or any law, regulation, court order, mortgage, note, bond, indenture, agreement, license or other instrument or obligation to which a Seller is now a party or by which any of Sellers’ Assets may be bound or affected.

Each Seller has full power and authority to execute and to deliver this Agreement and all other Purchase Documents executed by a Seller and to carry out the transactions contemplated herein and therein. Each has full power and authority (a) to own or operate the applicable Facility or Facilities as the same currently is owned and operated and (b) to conduct its business as the same currently is being conducted.
 
6.4  Seller Financial Statements. Sellers have delivered to Purchaser true and correct copies of the Seller Financial Statements.

Each Seller has delivered to Purchaser all Financial Statements prepared by such Seller subsequent to the date of the Seller Financial Statements delivered to Purchaser, and such Financial Statements represent fairly the financial condition, and set forth accurately in all material respects the results of the operations, of the Sellers and the Facilities for the periods covered thereby.
 
6.5  Absence of Adverse Change. Since the date of the Seller Financial Statements delivered by Sellers to Purchaser, there has not been any material adverse change in the financial condition, business, assets, liabilities, results of operations or prospects of a Seller or of the Facilities, whether in the ordinary course of business or otherwise.
 
6.6  The Licenses. Sellers have all Seller Licenses, and Licensees have all Healthcare Licenses, necessary or appropriate to occupy, use and operate the Facilities as independent living, assisted living or skilled nursing facilities with the number of licensed units or beds, as applicable, set forth on Schedule 1(d). Attached as Schedule 6.6 are true and correct copies of the Healthcare Licenses issued most recently by the applicable health care authorities with respect to the operation of a Facility. There is not currently pending, or to either Seller’s knowledge threatened, (a) any legal or regulatory action or proceeding to revoke, withdraw or suspend any of the Seller Licenses or to terminate the participation of one or more of the Facilities in either the Medicare or Medicaid Programs or (b) any judicial or administrative agency judgment or decision not to renew any of the Seller Licenses applicable to one or more of the Facilities or (c) any licensure or certification action of any other type applicable to one or more of the Facilities that may have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Master Lease).
 
6.7  Compliance with Law.
 
(a)  Schedule 6.7(a) sets forth the most recent licensure or certification survey for each Facility. A copy of each such licensure or certification survey has been delivered to Purchaser. Each Facility and its current operation and use comply with all applicable municipal, county, state and federal laws, regulations, ordinances and orders and with all applicable municipal health and building laws and regulations (including, without limitation, the building and life safety codes), except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not have a material adverse effect on the business, property, condition (financial or otherwise) or operation thereof;
 
(b)  To Sellers’ knowledge, during the period of time that Sellers or their Affiliates have owned a Facility, no governmental authority having jurisdiction over such Facility has issued any citations with respect to any deficiencies or other matters that fail to conform to any applicable statute, regulation, ordinance or by-law and that have not been corrected on or prior to the Closing, except to the extent that a waiver has been issued by the appropriate authority, in which case a copy of such waiver is included in Schedule 6.7(b);
 
(c)  None of the Sellers has received written or, to the Sellers’ knowledge, oral notice from any licensing or certifying agency supervising or having authority over a Facility, requiring it to be reworked or redesigned or additional furniture, fixtures, equipment or inventory to be provided at such Facility so as to conform to or comply with any existing and applicable law, code or standard, except where the requirement either (i) has been fully satisfied prior to the Closing Date, (ii) will, as of the Closing Date, be in the process of being satisfied in the ordinary course of each Seller's business pursuant to the terms of a plan of correction or other documentation submitted to and approved by the appropriate authority or (iii) will, as of the Closing Date, be the subject of a valid written waiver issued by the applicable licensing or certifying agency; and
 
(d)  Except as set forth in Schedule 6.7(d), the operation of each Facility is in substantial compliance with all Conditions and Standards of Participation in the Medicare or Medicaid programs.
 
6.8  Residents. Except for notice provisions that are required by law or that are contained in the Admissions Agreements provided to Purchaser by Sellers with respect to the Facilities, there are no agreements with residents or patients of any Facility that are not terminable by a Seller at will and that require the owner of the Facilities to provide the care routinely provided at a Facility for the duration of the resident's stay at a Facility for no consideration.
 
6.9  Books and Records. All of the books and records of the Facilities, including resident records, patient trust fund records and records concerning all resident prepaid accounts, are true, correct and complete in all material respects.
 
6.10  Taxes and Tax Returns. Each Seller has (i) timely filed all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns, reports, statements and other similar filings (the "Tax Returns") which are required to be filed by such Seller with respect to any federal, state, local or foreign income, payroll, withholding, excise, sales, use, personal property, occupancy, business, mercantile, real estate, capital stock, franchise or other taxes (the "Taxes"); and (ii) paid all Taxes, interest, penalties, assessments and deficiencies due or assessed pursuant to the Tax Returns. All Tax Returns properly reflect the liabilities of Sellers for Taxes for the periods, properties or events covered thereby. No extensions of time in which to file any Tax Returns have been executed or filed with any taxing authority. None of the Sellers has received any notice of assessment of additional Taxes or has executed or filed with any taxing authority any agreement extending the period of assessment of any Taxes. There are no claims, examinations, proceedings or proposed deficiencies for Taxes pending or, to the knowledge of Sellers, threatened against a Seller. Sellers are current in the payment of all withholding and other employee Taxes which are due and payable. The accruals for Taxes contained in the Seller Financial Statements are adequate to cover all liabilities for Taxes of Sellers for all periods ending on or before the date of such financial statements, and include adequate provisions for all deferred Taxes. All Taxes for periods beginning after the date of the latest period covered by the Seller Financial Statements, have been paid or are adequately reserved against on the books of Seller. None of the Sellers has been audited by the Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental agency or authority within the past five years, or has been parties to or bound by any tax indemnity agreement, tax sharing agreement, tax allocation agreement or similar agreement or arrangement.
 
6.11  Environmental Issues. None of the Sellers nor, to the knowledge of the Sellers, any of their predecessors in interest have released into the environment or discharged, placed or disposed of any Hazardous Substances or caused the same to be so released into the environment or discharged, placed or disposed of at, on or under a Facility, except (a) to the extent the same will not have a Material Adverse Effect on the condition, financial or otherwise, of Sellers or such Facility and (b) in accordance, and in compliance, with any and all applicable Environmental Laws. To Sellers’ knowledge, no Hazardous Substances are located on or at a Facility or have been released into the environment or discharged, placed or disposed of in, on or under a Facility, except to the extent permitted by applicable Environmental Laws.
