AMENDED AND RESTATED
PROMISSORY NOTE
$30,000,000
November 1, 2010
Newport Beach, California
1. Principal.
For value received, EMERITUS CORPORATION, a Washington corporation (as “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of NATIONWIDE HEALTH PROPERTIES, INC., a Maryland corporation (as “Holder”), by wire transfer or ACH (Automated Clearing House) only, the principal sum of Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000) (the “Loan”), or so much thereof as shall from time to time be outstanding hereunder, together with accrued interest from the date hereof on the unpaid principal at a per annum rate equal to the applicable Basic Interest Rate (as defined below) (“Basic Interest”).
This Note is made by Maker in full substitution of that certain Promissory Note dated as of March 31, 2008, made by Maker in favor of Holder, in the face amount of the Loan (the “Original Note”). This Note constitutes a modification and renewal of the existing indebtedness evidenced by the Original Note and does not cancel such existing indebtedness, and is not intended to be a novation of the Original Note or the indebtedness evidenced thereby.
|
2.
|
Disbursements.
|
Pursuant to the Original Note, the entire principal amount of the Loan was previously disbursed by Holder to Maker, which amounts are outstanding under this Loan. The Loan is not a revolving loan, and any amounts prepaid may not be re-borrowed.
|
3.
|
Maturity Date.
|
The unpaid principal balance hereof, together with all unpaid interest accrued thereon, and all other amounts payable by Maker hereunder, shall be due and payable on March 31, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”). If the Maturity Date should fall on a day that is not a Business Day, payment of the outstanding principal shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing any interest in respect of such payment.
|
4.
|
Prepayment.
|
Provided that Maker has provided Holder with not less than one hundred eighty (180) nor more than two hundred forty (240) days’ prior written notice of its election to prepay principal amounts outstanding under this Note, Maker shall have the right prepay the Loan,
1
in whole or in part, together with all accrued but unpaid interest and other sums owed to Holder hereunder, at any time prior to the Maturity Date.
|
5.
|
Payments of Principal and Interest.
|
|
(a)
|
Commencing on the date hereof (the “Effective Date”) and continuing through the Maturity Date, the unpaid principal balance of the Loan shall accrue Basic Interest, as the same may be adjusted pursuant to the terms hereof. As used in this Note, “Basic Interest Rate” shall mean: (i) commencing on the Effective Date and continuing through the expiration of the first (1st) Loan Year (as defined below), a per annum rate equal to eight and one-half percent (8.50%), and (ii) commencing with the second Loan Year and continuing on the commencement of each subsequent Loan Year thereafter, the Basic Interest Rate shall be increased to equal the applicable per annum rate for the corresponding Loan Year as set forth in the following table:
|
|

|

|
8.65%
|
|

|
8.80%
|
|
4
|
8.95%
|
|
5
|
9.10%
|
|
6
|
9.25%
|
|
7
|
9.40%
|
As used in this Note, “Loan Year” shall mean the twelve (12) month period commencing on November 1st of each year.
|
|
(b)
|
Commencing on the Effective Date and continuing on the 1st day of each calendar month thereafter until the Maturity Date, Maker shall make monthly payments of accrued Basic Interest only; provided, however, that the initial payment of accrued Basic Interest to be made on the Effective Date shall reflect a final payment of accrued Basic Interest under the Original Note and shall be determined based on the interest rate in the Original Note.
|
|
|
(c)
|
The unpaid principal amount of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be all due and payable on the Maturity Date.
|
|
|
(d)
|
All payments of principal and interest due hereunder shall be made without deduction of any present and future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings from or on payments due from Maker (excluding taxation of the overall net income of Holder), which amounts shall be paid by Maker. Maker will pay the amounts necessary such that the gross amount of the principal and interest received by Holder is not less than that required by this Note. All stamp and documentary taxes, if any, shall be paid by Maker. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder pays such taxes,
|
2
Maker will reimburse Holder for the amount paid. Maker will furnish Holder official tax receipts or other evidence of payment of all taxes.
|
|
(e)
|
Throughout the term of this Note, interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year with twelve (12) thirty day months. If any payment of interest to be made by Maker hereunder shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing any interest in respect of such payment.
|
|
6.
|
Lawful Money.
|
Principal and interest are payable in lawful money of the United States of America.
|
7.
|
Applications of Payments; Late Charges.
|
|
|
(a)
|
Any payments received by Holder pursuant to the terms hereof shall be applied first to sums, other than principal and interest, due Holder pursuant to this Note, next to the payment of all interest accrued to the date of such payment, and the balance, if any, to the payment of principal.
|
|
|
(b)
|
Maker acknowledges that the late payment of any amount due hereunder will cause Holder to lose the use of such money and incur costs and expenses not contemplated under this Note, including, without limitation, administrative and collection costs and processing and accounting expenses, the exact amount of which is extremely difficult to ascertain. Therefore, (i) if any installment of interest and/or principal is not received by Holder within five (5) calendar days after the due date for such payment, then, in addition to the remedies conferred upon Holder pursuant to Paragraph 9 hereof, Maker shall thereafter pay to Holder on demand a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount of all installments of interest and/or principal due under this Note and not paid on the due date; and (ii) if any installment of interest and/or principal is not received by Holder within ten (10) calendar days after the due date thereof, then the amount due and unpaid shall bear interest at the lesser of the highest annual rate which may lawfully be charged and collected under applicable law on the obligation evidenced by this Note or an annual rate which shall be four percent (4%) higher than the applicable Basic Interest Rate (the “Agreed Rate”), computed from the date on which the amount was due and payable until paid.
|
|

|
Remedies.
|
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the expiration of any applicable cure period, then at the option of Holder, the entire outstanding balance of principal together with all accrued interest thereon shall, without demand or notice, immediately become due and payable. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (beyond any applicable notice and/or cure period provided herein, and so long as such Event of Default shall continue), the entire outstanding balance of principal together with all unpaid accrued interest shall bear interest at the Agreed Rate. No delay or omission on the part of the Holder hereof in exercising any right under this Note shall operate as a waiver of such right.
|
10.
|

|
Maker hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and demand, notice of protest, dishonor and nonpayment of this Note, and expressly agrees that, without in any way affecting the
4
liability of Maker hereunder, Holder may extend any maturity date or the time for payment of any installment due hereunder, accept additional security, release any party liable hereunder and release any security now or hereafter securing this Note. Maker further waives, to the full extent permitted by law, the right to plead any and all statutes of limitations as a defense to any demand on this Note, or on any mortgage, security agreement, lease assignment, guaranty or other agreement now or hereafter securing this Note. Time is of the essence in the payment of all obligations due under this Note.
