said property to the center line thereof (hereinafter collectively referred to
as the "Property"). The Property shall include all fixtures, furnishings,
equipment, and other assets comprising the facility known as Mountain Crest
Behavioral Health Care System located at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,

outstanding leases, subleases, management contracts, medical director contracts,
medical staff relationships and any other agreements affecting the operation of
the Facility will be surrendered and canceled except: (i) those agreements
which, by their terms are not cancelable as of the Closing, which agreements and
the liabilities arising thereunder shall be assumed by Purchaser; and (ii) those
agreements and medical staff relationships which may not be terminated without
jeopardizing the care then being rendered to patients, unless Purchaser makes
adequate arrangements for the substitution of such agreements and relationship
with the patient's consent, as necessary. Seller shall be responsible for all
other liabilities not specifically assumed by Purchaser, and Seller hereby
agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless as to all such liabilities. At

7. Title Objections.
7.1. Purchaser shall have twenty (20) days after the Date of This
Agreement in which to search title to the Property and in which to furnish
Seller with a written statement of any title objections affecting the
marketability of said title other than the Permitted Exceptions. Should
Purchaser fail to notify Seller of any such title objections within the
aforesaid time period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived all objections
to the title to the Property. Seller shall have twenty (20) days after receipt
of such written objections (hereinafter referred to as the "Title Cure Period")
in which Seller shall in good faith endeavor to satisfy or correct (but shall
not be obligated to cure) all such valid title objections. In the event Seller
fails to satisfy or correct all valid title objections within the Title Cure
Period, Purchaser shall, by written notice to Seller given within five (5) days
after the expiration of the Title Cure Period, elect one of the following: (a)
to waive such title objections and to close the transaction on or before the
later of (i) the Closing Date, or (ii) three (3) days following such notice,
accepting the Deed subject to such title objections and without reduction of the
Purchase Price, except that liens affecting the Property which were created or
allowed by Seller and which are dischargeable by the payment of money shall be
paid at Closing out of the Purchase Price if this option is elected; or (b) to
cancel this Agreement and receive a refund of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money, in which event
neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any further rights, duties or
obligations under this Agreement, and the lien or right, if any, of Purchaser
against or to the Property shall wholly cease. Seller shall not be required and
is not obligated hereby to bring any action or proceeding or otherwise to incur
any expense to render the title to the Property free of any liens, leases and
encumbrances except to the extent any such liens, leases and encumbrances are in
conjunction with requirements listed in paragraph 6 above. The acceptance of the
Deed by Purchaser shall be deemed to be full performance of and discharge of
every agreement and obligation on the part of Seller to be performed pursuant to
the provisions of this Agreement, except those (if any) pursuant to any
provision hereof which are herein specifically stated to survive the Closing.
Deeds to secure debt encumbering the property which are to be paid by Seller
from the Purchase Price at the Closing shall not constitute valid title
objections.
7.2. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser any copies of the
instruments, notices, agreements, items of record, or other documents referred
to in Exhibit B which Seller has available. In the event that Purchaser
determines the "Permitted Exceptions" as defined in paragraph 6.1(c) above are
not acceptable to it, within the time period specified in paragraph 7.1,
Purchaser shall have the right to object to such matters, as set forth in
paragraph 7.1.
8. Survey. Purchaser or its agents or designees shall have the privilege
of going on the Property prior to Closing to make surveys, soil tests,
environmental tests, hydrological studies, and other tests and inspections of
the Property. Any survey shall
4
5
be performed by a Colorado Registered Land Surveyor selected by Purchaser, a
Purchaser's sole expense, with the survey so made indicating the number of acres
comprising the Property to the nearest one-hundredth of an acre (hereinafter
referred to as the "Survey"). Purchaser hereby covenants and agrees to
indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from any loss, liability, cost,
claims, damages, demands, actions, causes of action, liens, claims of lien and
suits resulting from Purchaser's activities under this paragraph except and
unless such loss, liability, damage or claim is the result of Seller's
negligence. The preceding indemnity shall survive the termination, rescission,
cancellation and consummation of this Agreement. The Purchaser shall promptly
restore the Property to its condition on the date hereof to the extent
practicable after all such tests or surveys, with Purchaser's obligation so to
restore to survive any termination of this Agreement. The legal description to
be used in the Deed shall be the legal description attached hereto as Exhibit A.
If Purchaser so desires, Seller shall execute a quitclaim deed conveying the
Property pursuant to a legal description prepared from the Survey.
9. Closing Costs. Each party will pay its own legal, accounting and other
fees and expenses incident to the contemplated transaction, provided that
Purchaser shall pay the State of Colorado property transfer tax applicable to
this transaction, the costs of recording the deed, the cost of the Title Policy,
the cost of the Survey, and any intangible taxes or similar taxes due as a
result of this transaction, and further provided that Seller shall pay the cost
of recording any documents necessary to cure title objections.
10. Apportionment of Taxes. All city, state and county ad valorem taxes
(hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Taxes") for the calendar year of
Closing shall be prorated and accounted for between Seller and Purchaser at
Closing based on the latest millage rate and assessment available. Should such
proration be inaccurate based on the actual bills when received, either party
shall be entitled to receive, on demand, a payment from the other correcting
such malapportionment. The foregoing prorations shall increase or decrease the
cash portion of the Purchase Price. The provisions of this paragraph shall
survive the Closing.
11. Casualty Loss. In the event of material damage to or material
destruction of the Property by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing,
which material damage or material destruction has not been repaired or restored
by the Closing Date, Purchaser may, at its option, elect: (i) not to close the
transaction contemplated hereby, in which event the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money shall be
refunded to Purchaser and no party shall have any further rights or obligations
hereunder, or (ii) to close the transaction contemplated hereby and receive the
instruments required herein from Seller, irrespective of such damage or
destruction and without reduction of the Purchase Price, but with Seller's right
to applicable insurance proceeds, if any. Damage or destruction in an amount in
excess of $500,000 shall be deemed "material" for the purposes of this
Paragraph.

action or proceeding for condemnation of any part of Property by friendly
acquisition or statutory proceeding, which may result in the taking of all or
any part of Property. Upon such notification, Purchaser shall have the right, to
be exercised within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, to rescind this
Agreement and receive a refund of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money. If Purchaser does not elect to
rescind, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Seller will
credit Purchaser at Closing with any moneys received by Seller by reason of such
taking. Provided Purchaser does not rescind, Seller will assign at Closing all

refund the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money, this Agreement shall terminate and the parties hereto
shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for any rights or
obligations hereunder which, by their terms, survive any

who need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating the contemplated
transaction (it being understood that such individuals shall be informed by the
party hereto of the confidential nature of such information and shall be
