LLC, Springfield Care Group LLC, Normal Care Group LLC, Bryan Care Group LLC (the &ldquo;Current Owners&rdquo;) and Erwin Family
Properties I, LLC (&ldquo;JEA&rdquo;), none of which are affiliated with us, own the facilities. The four facilities, Amber Glen
of Urbana, IL, Mill Creek of Springfield, IL, Creek, Sugar Creek of Normal, IL and Hudson Creek of Bryan, Texas (together, the
&ldquo;Leah Bay Portfolio&rdquo;), have a total of 264 beds in 152 units, all of which are dedicated to memory care. JEA will be
our joint venture partner in the $49.0 million transaction, and will hold the remaining 20% equity interest in the Leah Bay Portfolio
upon completion of the transaction. The purchase and sale agreement was amended on June 21, 2012, and on June 28, 2012. Except
with respect to specific contingencies, our right to terminate the agreement without the Current Owners&rsquo; and JEA&rsquo;s
consent has expired. We would invest approximately $13.7 million for our 80% interest in the joint venture. The investment would
be funded from available cash.</P>

our joint venture partner in the $49.0 million transaction, and will hold the remaining 20% equity interest in the Leah Bay Portfolio
upon completion of the transaction. The purchase and sale agreement was amended on June 21, 2012, and on June 28, 2012. Except
with respect to specific contingencies, our right to terminate the agreement without the Current Owners' and JEA's
consent has expired. We would invest approximately $13.7 million for our 80% interest in the joint venture. The investment would
be funded from available cash.
JEA specializes in
the acquisition, development and management of senior housing communities, focused on memory care. Based in Vancouver,
Washington, JEA owns, operates or has under development 35 senior living facilities in the United States and Canada.
In evaluating this acquisition and determining
the appropriate amount of consideration to be paid for this acquisition, we considered a variety of factors including overall valuation
of targeted net rental income, location, demographics, existing and planned competitive properties and analyzed how the property
compares to comparable properties in its market.
In connection with the acquisition of the

that remaining contingencies will be satisfied or that events will not arise that could prevent us from acquiring the property.
