Ensign, CareTrust, the General Partner and the Operating Partnership are sometimes referred to herein, individually, as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in Article V.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Ensign and CareTrust have entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated as of May 23, 2014 (the “Separation Agreement”), which provides for (i) the reorganization (the “Reorganization”) of the assets and liabilities of Ensign into two companies: (a) Ensign, which will own and conduct the Ensign Business (as defined in the Separation Agreement); and (b) CareTrust, which will own and conduct the CareTrust Business (as defined in the Separation Agreement); and (ii) the distribution (the “Distribution”) to the holders of Ensign’s outstanding shares of common stock, on a pro rata basis, of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of CareTrust so that, following such distribution, Ensign and CareTrust will be two independent, publicly traded companies;

WHEREAS, Ensign owns all of the outstanding interests (the “Property Company Interests”) in each of the companies listed on Exhibit A hereto (each, a “Property Company”), each of which owns the property or properties set forth opposite its name on Exhibit A (each, a “Property”);

WHEREAS, Ensign owns all of the outstanding interests (the “Operating Company Interests”) in each of the companies listed on Exhibit B hereto (each, an “Operating Company”), each of which operates the independent living facility set forth opposite its name on Exhibit B (each, a “Facility”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Separation Agreement, as part of the Reorganization, Ensign desires to contribute the Property Company Interests and the Operating Company Interests (collectively, the “Interests”) to CareTrust in exchange for (i) 22,442,878 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“CareTrust Common Stock”), of CareTrust, (ii) the assumption of certain liabilities of Ensign and (iii) $221,449,256.00 in cash;

WHEREAS, CareTrust desires to contribute (i) 1% of the Interests to the General Partner, which the General Partner desires to contribute to the Operating Partnership in exchange for units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) and $2,214,492.56 in cash (which cash would be distributed to CareTrust), and (ii) 99% of the Interests to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units, and $219,234,763.44 in cash; and

WHEREAS, to avoid the inconvenience and expense of multiple transfers, the Parties desire that (i) Ensign contribute all of the Interests directly to the Operating Partnership (the “Contribution”), and (ii) the Operating Partnership transfer $221,449,256.00 in cash directly to Ensign, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and other terms contained in this Agreement, the Parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

CONTRIBUTION

Section 1.01 Contribution of Interests.

(a) Ensign hereby agrees to contribute the Interests to CareTrust. CareTrust hereby agrees to contribute 1% of the Interests to the General Partner, and 99% of the Interests to the Operating Partnership. The General Partner hereby agrees to contribute such 1% of the Interests to the Operating Partnership. In order to avoid the inconvenience and expense of multiple transfers, (i) CareTrust hereby directs Ensign to transfer, on its behalf, 99% of the Interests directly to the Operating Partnership, and (ii) CareTrust and the General Partner hereby direct Ensign to transfer, on their behalf, 1% of the Interests directly to the Operating Partnership.

(b) (i) Ensign hereby contributes, assigns, transfers, conveys and delivers to the Operating Partnership, and the Operating Partnership hereby acquires and accepts from Ensign, all of Ensign’s right, title and interest in and to the Interests, together with all rights and claims related thereto as the sole member of each of the Property Companies and Operating Companies (collectively, the “Companies”), and (ii) the Operating Partnership hereby (x) assumes any and all obligations and liabilities of Ensign as the owner of the Interests and the sole member of each of the Companies, whether arising under the limited liability company agreement (each, an “LLC Agreement”) of any of the Companies or otherwise, and (y) is admitted to each of the Companies as its sole member upon its execution of this Agreement, which signifies its agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of each of the LLC Agreements.

(c) Immediately following the effectiveness of the assignment and assumption set forth in Section 1.01(a) above, Ensign shall and does hereby cease to be a member of each of the Companies and shall and does thereupon cease to have or exercise any right or power as a member of any of the Companies. From and after the date hereof, the Operating Partnership is hereby authorized to make any changes to any LLC Agreement as it determines, in its sole discretion, are appropriate, without the consent or approval of Ensign. Ensign shall promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Operating Partnership all books and records and other indicia of ownership with respect to each Company.

The issuance of OP Units to CareTrust and the General Partner shall be evidenced by either an amendment to the Operating Partnership’s Agreement of Limited Partnership or by certificates relating to such OP Units, in either case, as determined by the Operating Partnership, in such form as shall be reasonably acceptable to CareTrust and the General Partner. The OP Units to be issued to CareTrust and the General Partner pursuant to this Agreement shall have been duly authorized by the Operating Partnership and, when issued against the consideration therefor, shall be validly issued by the Operating Partnership, free and clear of all Liens created by the Operating Partnership (other than Liens created by the Operating Partnership Agreement).

Section 1.03 Consideration to Ensign. In consideration of the foregoing contribution, CareTrust shall promptly issue to Ensign 22,442,878 shares of CareTrust Common Stock and $221,449,256.00 in cash.

Section 2.02 Due Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Ensign has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action of Ensign. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Ensign, enforceable against Ensign in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar Law relating to creditors’ rights and general principles of equity.

Section 2.03 Consents and Approvals. Except as shall have been satisfied on or prior to the date hereof, no consent, waiver, approval or authorization of, or filing with, any Person or Governmental Authority or under any applicable Law is required to be obtained by Ensign in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby, except for those consents, waivers, approvals, authorizations or filings, the failure of which to obtain or to file would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Ensign.

Section 2.04 No Violation. None of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, does or will, with or without the giving of notice, lapse of time, or both, violate, conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under or give to others any right of termination, acceleration, cancelation or other right under (a) any agreement, document or instrument to which Ensign is a party or by which Ensign is bound or (b) any term or provision of any judgment, order, writ, injunction or decree binding on Ensign (or its assets or properties), except any such breaches or defaults that would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Ensign.

Section 2.12 Ownership of Interests. Ensign is the owner of the Interests and has the power and authority to transfer, sell, assign and convey to the Operating Partnership such Interests free and clear of any Liens, except for Permitted Liens, and, upon delivery of the consideration for such Interests as provided herein, the Operating Partnership will acquire good and valid title thereto, free and clear of any Liens, except for Permitted Liens.

No delay or failure in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall affect or operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or remedy. The rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that any Party would otherwise have.

Section 6.02 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Separation Agreement and the exhibits and schedules referenced herein and therein and attached hereto or thereto, constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior negotiations, agreements, commitments, writings, courses of dealing and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 6.06 Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Execution and delivery of this Agreement or any other documents pursuant to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be deemed to be, and shall have the same legal effect as, execution by an original signature and delivery in person.

Section 6.07 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement or the exhibits attached hereto or thereto is determined by a nonappealable decision by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the court, administrative agency or arbitrator shall interpret this Agreement so as to affect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any of their respective Affiliates provided that no such assignment shall release such assigning Party from any liability or obligation under this Agreement.

Section 6.09 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the substantive Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any conflicts of law provisions thereof that would result in the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction.

The Parties represent that this Agreement is entered into with full consideration of any and all rights which the Parties may have. The Parties have relied upon their own knowledge and judgment. The Parties have had access to independent legal advice, have conducted such investigations they thought appropriate, and have consulted with such other independent advisors as they deemed appropriate regarding this Agreement and their rights and asserted rights in connection therewith. The Parties are not relying upon any representations or statements made by the other Parties, or such other Party’s employees, agents, representatives or attorneys, regarding this Agreement, except to the extent such representations are expressly set forth or incorporated in this Agreement. The Parties are not relying upon a legal duty, if one exists, on the part of the other Parties (or any such other Party’s employees, agents, representatives or attorneys) to disclose any information in connection with the execution of this Agreement or their preparation, it being expressly understood that no Party shall ever assert any failure to disclose information on the part of the other Parties as a ground for challenging this Agreement.

Section 6.11 Performance. Each Party shall cause to be performed, and hereby guarantees the performance of, all actions, agreements and obligations set forth herein to be performed by any Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Party.

Section 6.12 Titles and Headings. Titles and headings to Sections and Articles are inserted for the convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
