      Whereas, Buyer desires to purchase the Property from Seller, and Seller is

      WHEREAS, the terms and conditions of the aforementioned loan from Ocwen to
Buyer ("Loan") are set forth in the Term Loan Agreement by and among Balanced
Care, Buyer, the Management Companies, and Licensee, dated of even date herewith

Property shall be deemed to mean an insured or uninsured casualty to the

having the power of eminent domain. Buyer shall give written notice of Buyer's
election to terminate this Agreement within five (5) business days after Buyer

insurance proceeds payable with respect to such damage; or (b) the entire award
payable with respect to such condemnation proceeding, whichever is applicable.

            (ii) Any party listed above may change the address for service of
notice upon it by a notice in writing to the other parties hereto as provided in
this Section 14.

      15. Amendment; Complete Agreement; No Construction Against Drafter. All
amendments and supplements to this Agreement must be in writing and executed by
all parties hereto. The Transaction Documents reflect the entire understanding
of the parties with respect to the subject matter of such documents and
supersede all prior and/or contemporaneous agreements or understandings with
respect thereto in their entirety, including but not limited to the Letter of
Intent (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement); provided, however, that the
provisions of the Letter of Intent that indicate specifically that they shall
survive the Closing of the Purchase Transaction shall continue in full force and
effect and shall be incorporated into this Agreement by reference.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that there is a conflict between any
such terms in the Letter of Intent that survive, and the terms of this
Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. This Agreement has been
drafted through a joint effort of the parties and their counsel and, therefore,
shall not be construed in favor of or against either of the parties.

      16. Governing Law. The Transaction Documents shall be deemed to be
contracts made under and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by
the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
In the event of any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of the terms or
conditions of any of the Transaction Documents, each member of the Obligated
Group hereby agrees that such dispute, claim, or controversy shall be brought
and heard only in the United States District Court for the Southern district of
Ohio, Western Division, in such other federal court as Ocwen shall select, in
state court in the State of Ohio, County of Montgomery, or in such other state
court in such other county and state as Ocwen may select, and all applicable
appellate courts thereof, and each member of the Obligated Group hereby waives
any objection to jurisdiction, venue, or forum non convenes that such party may
have otherwise had if this provision were not included herein. At the request of
Ocwen, made at any time, any party shall designate a statutory agent in any
State requested by Ocwen such that the forum selection clause of this Section 16
may be effectuated.

      17. Severability. The parties hereto intend and believe that each
provision in this Agreement, and the other documents, instruments, and
certificates executed in connection with the Purchase Transaction ("Other
Purchase Documents") comport with all


                                     - 16 -
<PAGE>
applicable local, state and federal laws and judicial decisions. However, if any
provision or provisions, or if any portion of any provision or provisions, in
this Agreement, or in any Other Purchase Documents, are found by a court of law
to be in violation of any applicable local, state or federal ordinance, statute,
law, administrative or judicial decision, or public policy, and if such court
should declare such portion, provision or provisions of this Agreement, or any
Other Purchase Document, to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable
as written, then it is the intent of the parties hereto that such portion,
provision or provisions shall be given force and effect to the fullest possible
extent, that the remainder of this Agreement, and the Other Purchase Documents,
shall be construed as if such provision or provisions were not contained herein
and therein and that the rights, obligations and interests of the parties under
the remainder of this Agreement and the Other Purchase Documents shall continue
in full force and effect.

      18. Counterparts, Headings. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together
shall constitute one agreement. The headings to sections of this Agreement are
for convenient reference only and shall not be used in interpreting this
Agreement.

      19. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the dates,
terms, and conditions set forth herein, and in the performance of all of the
obligations of the Buyer and the other members of the Obligated Group under this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

      20. Waiver. No waiver by any party of any of the terms or conditions of
this Agreement or any of their respective rights under this Agreement shall be
effective unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the party charged with
the waiver. Neither any failure nor delay on the part of a party in exercising
any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise
thereof preclude any other or further exercise of the same or the exercise of
any other rights, power or privilege. No waiver or consent shall be a continuing
waiver, and no waiver shall extend to any subsequent event of default, breach,
or condition, or impair any right consequent thereon. No notice or demand on
Buyer in any case shall entitle Buyer to any other or further notice or demand
in similar or other circumstances.


                                     - 17 -

the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. No
Person (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) other than the parties hereto,
and such permitted successors and assigns, shall have any right of action under
or rights or remedies by reason of this Agreement.

      22. Indemnification. Buyer, Balanced Care, and the other members of the
Obligated Group have agreed to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Ocwen and
Seller pursuant to the terms of Section 8.8 of the Term Loan Agreement. Such
terms and provisions are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

      23. Certificates, Etc. All certificates, reports and other writings
submitted by the Buyer and other members of the Obligated Group to Ocwen or
Seller hereunder, in connection with the Other Purchase Documents, shall
constitute the representations and warranties of the Buyer or the other
respective members of the Obligated Group to Ocwen and Seller as to the truth
and accuracy of all facts, calculations and other information set forth therein,
as though fully set forth and repeated in this Agreement or any Other Purchase
Document.

      24. Further Assurances. Buyer and Seller agree to do such further acts and
things and to execute and deliver to each other and/or Ocwen such additional
assignments, agreements, powers and instruments as such party or Ocwen may
reasonably require or deem advisable to carry into effect the purposes of this
Agreement and/or the Other Purchase Documents, or to better assure and confirm
unto Buyer, Seller, and/or Ocwen their rights, powers and remedies hereunder and
thereunder.

      25. Exhibits and Schedules. Any exhibits and schedules attached to this
Agreement are an integral part hereof and are hereby incorporated herein and
included in the term "this Agreement."

      26. Independent Counsel. Each party hereto hereby acknowledges that: (i)
they have been represented by independent counsel in connection with this
Agreement and the Other Purchase Documents; (ii) they have executed this
Agreement and the Other Purchase Documents with the advice of such counsel; and
(iii) this Agreement and the Other Purchase Documents are the result of
negotiations between the parties hereto and the advice and assistance of their
respective counsel. The fact that this Agreement and the Other Purchase
Documents were prepared by Seller's counsel as a matter of convenience shall
have no import or significance. Any


                                     - 18 -
<PAGE>
uncertainty or ambiguity in this Agreement or the Other Purchase Documents shall
not be construed against Seller because Seller's counsel prepared this Agreement
and the Other Purchase Documents in their final form.

      27. Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement and the Other
Purchase Documents any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference
shall be deemed to include the successors and permitted assigns of such parties;
and all terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Other Purchase Documents
shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and permitted assigns, whether so expressed or not.
As described in Section 36 hereof, except as otherwise provided in the Term Loan
Agreement with respect to Balanced Care, neither Buyer nor any other member of
the Obligated Group may assign or transfer their rights or duties under this
Agreement or the Other Purchase Documents to any Person. Also as described in
Section 36 hereof, Ocwen and/or Seller may assign or transfer their rights and
duties under this Agreement and the Other Purchase Documents to any Person
without the prior written consent of the Buyer or any other member of the
Obligated Group.

      28. Construction of Provisions. Each covenant by Buyer and the other
members of the Obligated Group contained in this Agreement and the Other
Purchase Documents shall be construed without reference to any other such
covenant, and any determination of whether any Buyer or any members of the
Obligated Group is in compliance with any such covenant shall be made without
reference to whether the Buyer or such other member of the Obligated Group is in
compliance with any other such covenant.

      29. Survivability. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the
contrary, the following sections of this Agreement shall survive the Closing of
the Purchase Transaction contemplated hereunder and shall not terminate and/or
otherwise merge with the Deeds: 1.3, 3.1, 5.3, 5.4, 7, 9, 10, 12, 13 through 31,
inclusive, 33, and 36.

      30. Condition of Property. Except as provided in Section 4, Buyer
represents and warrants that Buyer is acting, and will act only, upon
information obtained by Buyer directly from Buyer's own inspection of the
Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,

intended use, or availability or lack of availability of (a) permits or
approvals of governmental or regulatory authorities, or (b) easements, licenses
or other


                                     - 19 -
<PAGE>
rights with respect to any such proposed or intended use of the Property shall
not affect the rights or obligations of the Buyer hereunder.

      31. Property "AS IS".

            31.1 Buyer's Possession. Buyer hereby acknowledges that, as
described above, affiliates of Buyer have been in possession of the Property
exclusively during almost the entire period of Seller's ownership of the
Property. As such, Buyer and its affiliates are in a better position and have
more knowledge to evaluate the condition of the Property than Seller.

            31.2 No Side Agreements or Representations. No Person (as defined in
the Term Loan Agreement) acting on behalf of Seller or Ocwen is authorized to
make, and by execution hereof, Buyer acknowledges that no Person has made any

Parties") from any and all claims that it may now have or hereafter may acquire
against any of the Released Parties for any costs, loss, liability, damage,
expenses, demand, action or cause of action arising from or related to any
construction defects, errors, omissions or other conditions, latent or
otherwise, including environmental matters, affecting the Property, or any
portion thereof. This release includes claims of which Buyer is presently
unaware or which Buyer does not presently suspect to exist which, if known by
Buyer, would materially affect Buyer's release to the Released Parties.

      In this connection and to the extent permitted by law, Buyer hereby
agrees, represents and warrants that Buyer realizes and acknowledges that
factual matters now unknown to it may have given or may hereafter give rise to
causes of action, claims, demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs, losses
and expenses which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and
Buyer further agrees, represents and warrants that the waivers and releases
herein have been negotiated and agreed upon in light of that realization and
that Buyer nevertheless hereby intends to release, discharge and acquit the
Release Parties from any such unknown causes of action, claims, demands, debts,
controversies, damages, costs, losses and expenses which might in any way be
included as a material portion of the consideration given to Seller by Buyer in
exchange for Seller's performance hereunder.

      Seller has given Buyer material concessions regarding this Purchase
Transaction in exchange for Buyer agreeing to the provisions of this Section 33.

THE FORM ATTACHED HERETO AS EXHIBITS D AND E.

      34. Reserved.

      35. No Reservation of Property. The preparation and/or delivery of
unsigned drafts of this Agreement shall not create any legally binding rights in
the Property and/or obligations of the parties, and Buyer and Seller acknowledge
that this Agreement shall be of no effect until it is duly executed by both
Buyer and Seller (and all other parties hereto).

      36. Confidentiality; Assignment. Each party hereto agrees that the terms
of this Agreement and the Other Purchase Documents are confidential and shall
not be disclosed to any other person or entity without the written consent of
all of the parties hereto (unless ordered to do so by a court of competent
jurisdiction or otherwise required by applicable law). Provided, however, that a
party may disclose the terms of this Agreement and the Other Purchase Documents
to members of its and its affiliates' board of directors, management, employees,
shareholders, officers, advisors, and others within their organizations with a
need to know, subject to the conditions that the receiving party (a) notify such
board members, management employees, shareholder, advisors, officers, and others
within their organization with a need to know that the terms of this Agreement
and the Other Purchase Documents are subject to a confidentiality agreement, and
(b) obtain such person's agreement to maintain the confidentiality of the terms
of this Agreement or the Other Purchase Documents. And, provided, further, that

obligations or responsibilities in, under and to this Agreement and the Other
Purchase Documents, without the prior consent of Buyer or any other member of
the Obligated Group being required. However, neither Buyer, nor any other member
of the Obligated Group, may assign or otherwise transfer or delegate, in whole
or in part, their right, title or interest or obligations or responsibilities
under and pursuant to this Agreement or the Other Purchase Documents without the
prior written consent of Ocwen, which may be withheld for any reason or no
reason. In no event shall any assignment consented to by Ocwen relieve Buyer
from its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Other Purchase
Documents. Any other purported or attempted assignment or delegation without
obtaining Ocwen's prior written consent shall be void ab initio and of no
effect.

      37. Escrow. The Title Company shall act as escrow agent, pursuant to joint
instructions provided by Seller and Buyer. In this capacity, the Title Company
