NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Description of Business

Brookdale Senior Living Inc. ("Brookdale" or the "Company") is a leading owner and operator of senior living communities throughout the United States. The Company provides an exceptional living experience through properties that are designed, purpose-built and operated to provide the highest quality service, care and living accommodations for residents. The Company owns, leases and operates retirement centers, assisted living and dementia-care communities and continuing care retirement centers ("CCRCs"). Through its Innovative Senior Care ("ISC") program, the Company also offers a range of outpatient therapy, home health and hospice services, primarily to residents of its communities.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of March 31, 2013, and for all periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. All adjustments made have been of a normal and recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes that the disclosures included are adequate and provide a fair presentation of interim period results. Interim financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the financial position or operating results for an entire year. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto, together with management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Revenue Recognition

Resident Fees

Resident fee revenue is recorded when services are rendered and consists of fees for basic housing, support services and fees associated with additional services such as personalized health and assisted living care. Residency agreements are generally for a term of 30 days to one year, with resident fees billed monthly in advance. Revenue for certain skilled nursing services and ancillary charges is recognized as services are provided and is billed monthly in arrears.

Entrance Fees

Certain of the Company's communities have residency agreements which require the resident to pay an upfront entrance fee prior to occupying the community. In addition, in connection with the Company's MyChoice program, new and existing residents are allowed to pay additional entrance fee amounts in return for a reduced monthly service fee. The non-refundable portion of the entrance fee is recorded as deferred entrance fee revenue and amortized over the estimated stay of the resident based on an actuarial valuation. The refundable portion of a resident's entrance fee is generally refundable within a certain number of months or days following contract termination or upon the sale of the unit, or in certain agreements, upon the resale of a comparable unit or 12 months after the resident vacates the unit. In such instances the refundable portion of the fee is not amortized and included in refundable entrance fees and deferred revenue. All refundable amounts due to residents at any time in the future are classified as current liabilities.

Table of Contents

Management Fees

Management fee revenue is recorded as services are provided to the owners of the communities. Revenues are determined by an agreed upon percentage of gross revenues (as defined).

Reimbursed Costs Incurred on Behalf of Managed Communities

The Company manages certain communities under contracts which provide for payment to the Company of a monthly management fee plus reimbursement of certain operating expenses. Where the Company is the primary obligor with respect to any such operating expenses, the Company recognizes revenue when the goods have been delivered or the service has been rendered and the Company is due reimbursement. Such revenue is included in "reimbursed costs incurred on behalf of managed communities" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The related costs are included in "costs incurred on behalf of managed communities" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 – Fair Value Measurements ("ASC 820"), which establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Cash and cash equivalents and cash and escrow deposits-restricted are reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at amounts considered by management to reasonably approximate fair value due to the short maturity. Management estimates the fair value of its long-term debt using a discounted cash flow analysis based upon the Company's current borrowing rate for debt with similar maturities and collateral securing the indebtedness. The Company had outstanding debt with a carrying value and estimated fair value of approximately $2.6 billion and $2.7 billion as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The Company's fair value of debt disclosure is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

Self-Insurance Liability Accruals

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Although the Company maintains general liability and professional liability insurance policies for its owned, leased and managed communities under a master insurance program, the Company's current policies provide for deductibles for each and every claim. As a result, the Company is, in effect, self-insured for claims that are less than the deductible amounts. In addition, the Company maintains a large-deductible workers compensation program and a self-insured employee medical program. The Company reviews the adequacy of its accruals related to these liabilities on an ongoing basis, using historical claims, actuarial valuations, third party administrator estimates, consultants, advice from legal counsel and industry data, and adjusts accruals periodically. Estimated costs related to these self-insurance programs are accrued based on known claims and projected claims incurred but not yet reported. Subsequent changes in actual experience are monitored and estimates are updated as information is available.

Table of Contents

Cumulative Effect Adjustment

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-01, Continuing Care Retirement Communities — Refundable Advance Fees ("ASU 2012-01"). ASU 2012-01 amends the situations in which recognition of deferred revenue for refundable advance fees is appropriate. Under this amendment, refundable advance fees that are contingent upon reoccupancy by a subsequent resident but are not limited to the proceeds of reoccupancy should be accounted for and reported as a liability. The guidance in ASU 2012-01 is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted the provisions of this update as of January 1, 2013 and incorporated the provisions of this update to its consolidated financial statements through retrospective application to all periods presented and a cumulative effect adjustment to the Company's accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2013 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The effect of this change in accounting was not material to the consolidated results of operations or financial position for any period, including the first quarters of 2013 and 2012, and did not impact cash flows from operations in either period. The Company increased its accumulated deficit by $5.7 million to reflect the net cumulative effect of the adoption of ASU 2012-01.

The related adjustments will be made to the applicable prior periods as such financial information is included in future filings with the SEC, but no later than the filing of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2013. The impact of all adjustments made to the prior annual consolidated financial statements is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation, with no effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

3. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS includes the components of basic EPS and also gives effect to dilutive common stock equivalents. For purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share, vested restricted stock awards are considered outstanding. Under the treasury stock method, diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other instruments that are convertible into common stock were exercised or could result in the issuance of common stock. Potentially dilutive common stock equivalents include unvested restricted stock, restricted stock units and convertible debt instruments and warrants.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the calculation of diluted weighted average shares excludes the impact of conversion of the Company's $316.3 million of convertible senior notes, as the initial conversion price of approximately $29.325 per share was higher than the average trading price of the Company's common stock making the instruments anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2013, the maximum number of shares issuable upon conversion of the notes is approximately 13.8 million (after giving effect to additional make-whole shares issuable upon conversion in connection with the occurrence of certain events); however it is the Company's current intent and policy to settle the principal amount of the notes in cash upon conversion. The maximum number of shares issuable upon conversion of the notes in excess of the amount of principal that would be settled in cash is approximately 3.0 million. In addition, the calculation of diluted weighted average shares excludes the impact of the exercise of warrants to acquire the Company's common stock, as the initial strike price of $40.25 per share was also higher than the average trading price of the Company's common stock making the instruments anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2013, the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants was approximately 10.8 million. The calculation of diluted weighted average shares for the three months ended March 31, 2013 also excludes 0.5 million of performance-based restricted stock awards.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company recorded a consolidated net loss. As a result of the net loss, unvested restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards and convertible debt instruments and warrants were anti-dilutive for the period and were not included in the computation of diluted weighted average shares. The weighted average restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted average shares for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was 5.0 million.

4. Dispositions

During the three months ended March, 31, 2013, the Company sold two communities for an aggregate selling price of $7.2 million. The results of operations of the communities were previously reported in the Assisted Living segment.

5. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company follows ASC 718 in accounting for its share-based payments. This guidance requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the employee stock awards. This cost is recognized as compensation expense ratably over the employee's requisite

Table of Contents

service period. Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized when incurred.

For all service awards, the Company records compensation expense for the entire award on a straight-line basis (or, if applicable, on the accelerated method) over the requisite service period. For awards with performance-based vesting conditions, total compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche of the award as if the award is, in substance, multiple awards once the performance target is deemed probable of achievement. Performance goals are evaluated quarterly. If such goals are not ultimately met or it is not probable the goals will be achieved, no compensation expense is recognized and any previously recognized compensation expense is reversed.

The Company's compensation expense recorded in connection with grants of restricted stock for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 reflects an initial estimated cumulative forfeiture rate from 0% to 10% over the requisite service period of the awards. That estimate is revised if subsequent information indicates that the actual number of awards expected to vest is likely to differ from previous estimates.

Current year grants of restricted shares under the Company's Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan were as follows (amounts in thousands except for value per share):

Total long-term debt	$	2,286,085	$	2,089,826

As of March 31, 2013, the current portion of long-term debt within the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements reflects approximately $276.2 million of mortgage notes payable due within the next 12 months. Although these debt obligations are scheduled to mature on or prior to March 31, 2014, the Company has the option, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions (such as the absence of a material adverse change), to extend the maturity of approximately $80.0 million of certain mortgages payable included in such debt until 2020, as the instruments associated with such mortgages payable provide that the Company can extend the respective maturity dates for terms of seven years from the existing maturity dates. The Company presently anticipates that it will either satisfy the conditions precedent for extending these obligations and will exercise the extension options or it will refinance or repay the $276.2 million of mortgage notes payable at or prior to maturity.

Credit Facilities

On March 28, 2013, the Company entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement with General Electric Capital Corporation, as administrative agent and lender, and the other lenders from time to time parties thereto. The amended credit agreement amended and restated in its entirety the Company's existing amended and restated credit agreement dated as of January 31, 2011, as previously amended. The amended credit agreement extended the maturity date of the facility to March 31, 2018 and decreased the interest rate payable on advances and the fee payable on the unused portion of the facility. The amended credit agreement also provides options to increase the committed amount initially from $230.0 million to $250.0 million and thereafter from $250.0 million to up to $350.0 million, subject to obtaining commitments for the amount of such increase from acceptable lenders. The amended credit agreement now also permits reduction of the committed amount or termination of the facility during the last two years of the five year term without payment of a premium or penalty.

Amounts drawn under the facility bear interest at 90-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin varies with the percentage of the total commitment drawn, with a 3.25% margin at 25% or lower utilization, a 3.75% margin at utilization greater than 25% but less than or equal to 50%, and a 4.25% margin at greater than 50% utilization. For purposes of determining the interest rate, in no event will LIBOR be less than 0.5% per annum. The

Table of Contents

Company is also required to pay a quarterly commitment fee of 0.5% per annum on the unused portion of the facility.

The revolving line of credit can be used to finance acquisitions and fund working capital and capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes.

The facility is secured by a first priority mortgage on certain of the Company's communities. The availability under the line will vary from time to time as it is based on borrowing base calculations related to the appraised value and performance of the communities securing the facility.

The amended credit agreement contains typical affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage and minimum consolidated tangible net worth. A violation of any of these covenants could result in a default under the amended credit agreement, which would result in termination of all commitments under the amended credit agreement and all amounts owing under the amended credit agreement and certain other loan agreements becoming immediately due and payable.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company had an available secured line of credit with a $230.0 million commitment and $198.6 million of availability (of which $45.0 million had been drawn as of such date). The Company also had secured and unsecured letter of credit facilities of up to $92.5 million in the aggregate as of March 31, 2013. Letters of credit totaling $78.0 million had been issued under these facilities as of that date.

Financings

On April 3, 2013, the Company obtained a $25.0 million first mortgage loan, secured by the underlying community. The loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus a margin of 275 basis points and matures in April 2018. In connection with the transaction, the Company repaid $29.0 million of existing variable rate debt.

On April 12, 2013, the Company obtained $259.0 million in loans secured by first mortgages on 23 communities. The loans bear interest at a variable rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus a margin of 246 basis points. The loans mature in May 2023 and require amortization of principal over a 30 year period. Proceeds of the loans, together with cash on hand, were used to refinance or prepay a total of $275.2 million of mortgage debt which was scheduled to mature in May and July 2013 and variable rate tax-exempt bonds scheduled to mature in 2032.

On April 22, 2013, the Company obtained a $28.0 million first mortgage loan, secured by two communities. The loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus a margin of 275 basis points and matures in April 2018. In connection with the transaction, the Company repaid $35.1 million of existing variable rate debt.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company is in compliance with the financial covenants of its outstanding debt and lease agreements.

9. Litigation

The Company has been and is currently involved in litigation and claims incidental to the conduct of its business which are comparable to other companies in the senior living industry. Certain claims and lawsuits allege large damage amounts and may require significant costs to defend and resolve. Similarly, the senior living industry is continuously subject to scrutiny by governmental regulators, which could result in litigation related to regulatory compliance matters. As a result, the Company maintains general liability and professional liability insurance policies in amounts and with coverage and deductibles the Company believes are adequate, based on the nature and risks of its business, historical experience and industry standards. The Company's current policies provide for deductibles for each claim. Accordingly, the Company is, in effect, self-insured for claims that are less than the deductible amounts.

13. Segment Information

The Company currently has six reportable segments: retirement centers; assisted living; CCRCs - rental; CCRCs - entry fee; ISC; and management services. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses; for which separate financial information is available; and whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to assess the performance of the individual segment and make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment.

Retirement Centers. The Company's Retirement Centers segment includes owned or leased communities that are primarily designed for middle to upper income senior citizens age 75 and older who desire an upscale residential environment providing the highest quality of service. The majority of the Company's retirement center communities consist of both independent living and assisted living units in a single community, which allows residents to "age-in-place" by providing them with a continuum of senior independent and assisted living services.

Assisted Living. The Company's Assisted Living segment includes owned or leased communities that offer housing and 24-hour assistance with activities of daily life to mid-acuity frail and elderly residents. Assisted living communities include both freestanding, multi-story communities and freestanding single story communities. The Company also operates memory care communities, which are freestanding assisted living communities specially designed for residents with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias.

CCRCs - Rental. The Company's CCRCs - Rental segment includes large owned or leased communities that offer a variety of living arrangements and services to accommodate all levels of physical ability and health. Most of the Company's CCRCs have independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing available on one campus or within the immediate market, and some also include memory care/Alzheimer's units.

CCRCs - Entry Fee. The communities in the Company's CCRCs - Entry Fee segment are similar to those in the Company's CCRCs - Rental segment but allow for residents in the independent living apartment units to pay a one-time upfront entrance fee, which is partially refundable in certain circumstances. The amount of the entrance fee varies depending upon the type and size of the dwelling unit, the type of contract plan selected, whether the contract contains a lifecare benefit for the resident, the amount and timing of refund, and other variables. In addition to the initial entrance fee, residents under all entrance fee agreements also pay a monthly service fee, which entitles them to the use of certain amenities and services. Since entrance fees are received upon initial occupancy, the monthly fees are generally less than fees at a comparable rental community.

ISC. The Company's ISC segment includes the outpatient therapy, home health and hospice services provided to residents of many of the Company's communities, to other senior living communities that the Company does not own or operate and to seniors living outside of the Company's communities. The ISC segment does not include the therapy services provided in the Company's skilled nursing units, which are included in the Company's CCRCs - Rental and CCRCs - Entry Fee segments.

Management Services. The Company's management services segment includes communities operated by the Company pursuant to management agreements. In some of the cases, the controlling financial interest in the community is held by third parties and, in other cases, the community is owned in a joint venture structure in which the Company has an ownership interest. Under the management agreements for these communities, the Company receives management fees as well as reimbursed expenses, which represent the reimbursement of expenses it incurs on behalf of the owners.

The accounting policies of the Company's reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

Executive Overview

Our primary long-term growth objectives are to grow our revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, Cash From Facility Operations and Facility Operating Income primarily through a combination of: (i) organic growth in our core business, including expense control and the realization of economies of scale; (ii) expansion, redevelopment and repositioning of existing communities; (iii) acquisition and consolidation of asset portfolios and other senior living companies; and (iv) continued expansion of our ancillary services programs (including therapy, home health and hospice services).

The table below presents a summary of our operating results and certain other financial metrics for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 and the amount and percentage of increase of each applicable item (dollars in millions).

	Three Months Ended March 31,					Increase
	2013		2012			Amount		Percent
Total revenues	$	712.3	$	682.7		$	29.6		4.3	%
Net income (loss)	$	3.6	$	(10.5	)	$	14.1		133.7	%
Adjusted EBITDA	$	110.3	$	96.6		$	13.7		14.2	%
Cash From Facility Operations	$	67.8	$	54.6		$	13.3		24.3	%
Facility Operating Income	$	204.2	$	191.7		$	12.5		6.5	%

Adjusted EBITDA and Facility Operating Income are non-GAAP financial measures we use in evaluating our operating performance. Cash From Facility Operations is a non-GAAP financial measure we use in evaluating our liquidity. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for an explanation of how we define each of these measures, a detailed description of why we believe such measures are useful and the limitations of each measure, a reconciliation of net income (loss) to each of Adjusted EBITDA and Facility Operating Income and a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to Cash From Facility Operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we experienced an increase in our total revenues, primarily due to increases in occupancy and average monthly revenue per unit, including an increase in our ancillary services revenue. Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013 increased to $712.3 million, an increase of $29.6 million, or 4.3%, over our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Resident fees for the three months ended March 31, 2013 increased $27.8 million, or 4.7%, from the prior year period. Management fees increased $0.2 million, or 2.2%, from the first quarter of 2012, and reimbursed costs incurred on behalf of managed communities increased $1.6 million, or 2.0%.

The increase in resident fees during the three months ended March 31, 2013 was primarily a result of a 2.8% increase in senior housing average monthly revenue per unit compared to the prior year period, a 70 basis points increase in average occupancy and growing revenues from our ancillary services programs. Our weighted average occupancy rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was 88.5% and 87.8%, respectively. The increases in occupancy rates were a result of improving fundamentals, execution by our field organization and sales and marketing team and the benefit of the capital we have invested and continue to spend on our communities.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we also made progress in controlling our cost growth. Facility operating expenses for the first quarter of 2013 were $413.0 million, an increase of $14.2 million, or 3.6%, from the first quarter of 2012.

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $3.6 million, or $0.03 per basic and diluted common share, compared to a net loss of $10.5 million, or $(0.09) per basic and diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2012.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, our Adjusted EBITDA, Cash From Facility Operations and Facility Operating Income increased by 14.2%, 24.3% and 6.5%, respectively, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we continued to expand our ancillary services offerings. As of March 31, 2013, we offered therapy services to approximately 52,000 of our units and home health services to approximately 46,000 of our units (approximately 38,000 and 32,000 of these units, respectively, are in our consolidated portfolio). We expect to continue to expand our ancillary services programs to additional units and to open or acquire additional home health agencies.

During the first quarter of 2013, we entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement with General Electric Capital Corporation, as administrative agent and lender, and the other lenders from time to time parties thereto. The amended credit agreement amended and restated in its entirety our existing amended and restated credit agreement dated as of January 31, 2011, as previously amended. The amended credit agreement extended the maturity date of the facility to March 31, 2018 and decreased the interest rate payable on advances and the fee payable on the unused portion of the facility. The amended credit agreement also provides options to increase the committed amount initially from $230.0 million to $250.0 million and thereafter from $250.0 million to up to $350.0 million, subject to obtaining commitments for the amount of such increase from acceptable lenders. The amended credit agreement now also permits reduction of the committed amount or termination of the facility during the last two years of the five year term without payment of a premium or penalty.

(1)	Management services segment revenue includes reimbursements for which we are the primary obligor of costs incurred on behalf of managed communities.

(2)	Period end units operated excludes equity homes. Weighted average units operated represents the average units operated during the period, excluding equity homes.

(3)	Senior Housing average monthly revenue per unit represents the average of the total monthly resident fee revenues, excluding amortization of entrance fees and ISC segment revenue, divided by average occupied units.

(4)

Refundable entrance fee sales for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 include amounts received from residents participating in the MyChoice program, which allows new and existing residents the option to pay additional refundable entrance fee amounts in return for a reduced monthly service fee. MyChoice amounts received from residents totaled $1.8 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

As of March 31, 2013, our total operations included 649 communities with a capacity to serve 66,908 residents.

Resident Fees

Resident fees increased over the prior year period primarily as a result of an increase in the average monthly revenue per unit compared to the prior year period, including growing revenues from our ancillary services programs, and an increase in occupancy. During the current period, revenues grew 3.6% at the 545 communities we operated during both periods with a 2.6% increase in the average monthly revenue per unit (excluding amortization of entrance fees in both instances). Occupancy increased 0.9% in these communities period over period.

Retirement Centers revenue increased $4.4 million, or 3.5%, primarily due to increases in average monthly revenue per unit and occupancy at the communities we operated during both periods.

Table of Contents

Assisted Living revenue increased $9.3 million, or 3.7%, primarily due to increases in average monthly revenue per unit and occupancy at the communities we operated during both periods. The increase was partially offset by the disposition of communities subsequent to the prior year period.

CCRCs - Rental revenue increased $5.2 million, or 5.5%, primarily due to increases in average monthly revenue per unit and occupancy at the communities we operated during both periods and the inclusion of revenue from a community acquired subsequent to the prior year period.

CCRCs - Entry Fee revenue increased $2.6 million, or 3.6%, primarily due to an increase in occupancy at the communities we operated during both periods and an increase in the total number of units. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in the average monthly revenue per unit at the communities we operated during both periods.

ISC revenue increased $6.3 million, or 11.8%, primarily due to the roll-out of our ancillary services programs to additional units subsequent to the prior year period. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in therapy service volume.

Management Services

Management services revenue, including reimbursed costs incurred on behalf of managed communities, increased $1.7 million, or 2.0%, primarily due to additional costs incurred on behalf of managed communities.

Facility Operating Expense

Facility operating expense increased over the prior-year period primarily due to increased marketing and advertising expenses, as well as increases in salaries and wages and additional expenses incurred in connection with the expansion of our ancillary services programs. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in bonus expense.

Retirement Centers operating expenses increased $2.1 million, or 2.8%, primarily due to an increase in marketing and advertising expense and an increase in salaries and wages due to wage rate increases and an increase in hours worked period over period. These increases were partially offset by decreases in bonus expense and repairs and maintenance expense in the current year period.

Assisted Living operating expenses increased $3.5 million, or 2.2%, primarily due to increases in marketing and advertising expense and insurance expense. There was also an increase in salaries and wages due to wage rate increases and an increase in hours worked period over period. These increases were partially offset by decreases in bonus expense and employee benefits expense.

CCRCs - Rental operating expenses increased $4.2 million, or 6.2%, primarily driven by an increase in salaries and wages due to wage rate increases and an increase in healthcare supplies expense due to an increase in occupancy and residents with higher acuity needs. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in real estate tax expense in the current year period.

CCRCs - Entry Fee operating expenses decreased $0.2 million, or 0.3%, primarily driven by a decrease in skilled therapy service expense due to a decrease in hours worked in the current year period.

ISC operating expenses increased $4.6 million, or 10.9%, primarily due to an increase in expenses incurred in connection with the continued expansion of our ancillary services programs, an increase in therapy labor expense and an increase in bad debt expense.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expense increased $1.6 million, or 3.6%, primarily as a result of increases in salaries and wage expense and an increase in employee benefits expense. These increases were partially offset by decreases in integration, transaction-related and electronic medical records ("EMR") roll-out costs compared to the prior period. General and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenue, including revenue generated by the

Table of Contents

communities we manage and excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense and integration, transaction-related and EMR roll-out costs, was 4.8% and 4.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, calculated as follows (dollars in thousands):

General and administrative expenses (including non-cash stock-based compensation expense and integration, transaction-related and EMR roll-out costs)	$	46,611	5.9	%	$	44,973	6.0	%

Facility Lease Expense

Facility lease expense decreased $2.4 million, or 3.4%, primarily as a result of the purchase of 12 previously leased communities in the prior year.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.3 million, or 2.1%, primarily as a result of the purchase of 12 previously leased communities in the prior year.

Asset Impairment

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we recognized $1.1 million of impairment charges related to asset impairments, primarily as a result of fire damage at one of our communities.

Loss on Acquisition

The loss on acquisition recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2012 relates to the reduction of a prior-year gain for adjustments to pre-acquisition self-insurance reserves and the related tax impact.

Gain on Facility Lease Termination

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we recognized a $2.8 million net gain on facility lease termination from the reversal of deferred lease liabilities associated with nine previously-leased communities that were acquired during the prior year period, partially offset by the write-off of deferred lease costs.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $1.4 million, or 3.7%, primarily due to decreased interest expense related to our mortgage debt, which had lower interest rates period over period.

Table of Contents

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were 24.4% and (9.7%), respectively. The difference in the effective rates for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was primarily due to the impact of the Company's improved financial results under generally accepted accounting principles.

An additional interest charge related to our tax contingency reserve was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2013. Tax returns for years 2008 through 2011 are subject to future examination by tax authorities. In addition, certain tax returns are open from 2000 through 2007 to the extent of the net operating losses generated during those periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following is a summary of cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2013			2012
Cash provided by operating activities	$	64,485		$	45,693
Cash used in investing activities		(58,162	)		(141,392	)
Cash (used in) provided by financing activities		(47,321	)		106,976
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents		(40,998	)		11,277
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period		69,240			30,836
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period	$	28,242		$	42,113

The increase in cash provided by operating activities was attributable primarily to improved operating results.

The decrease in cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to a decrease in cash paid for acquisitions. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in spending on property, plant, equipment, and leasehold intangibles and by additional investments in unconsolidated ventures.

The change in cash related to financing activities period over period was primarily attributable to an increase in repayments on our line of credit in the current year period and a decrease in the proceeds from debt related to the financing of a prior period acquisition.

Our principal sources of liquidity have historically been from:

cash balances on hand;

cash flows from operations;

proceeds from our credit facilities;

proceeds from mortgage financing or refinancing of various assets;

funds generated through joint venture arrangements or sale-leaseback transactions; and

with somewhat lesser frequency, funds raised in the debt or equity markets and proceeds from the selective disposition of underperforming and/or non-core assets.

Over the longer-term, we expect to continue to fund our business through these principal sources of liquidity.

Our liquidity requirements have historically arisen from:

working capital;

operating costs such as employee compensation and related benefits, general and administrative expense and supply costs;

debt service and lease payments;

acquisition consideration and transaction costs;

Table of Contents

cash collateral required to be posted in connection with our interest rate swaps and related financial instruments;

capital expenditures and improvements, including the expansion of our current communities and the development of new communities;

dividend payments;

purchases of common stock under our share repurchase authorizations; and

other corporate initiatives (including integration and branding).

Over the near-term, we expect that our liquidity requirements will primarily arise from:

working capital;

operating costs such as employee compensation and related benefits, general and administrative expense and supply costs;

debt service and lease payments;

capital expenditures and improvements, including the expansion, redevelopment and repositioning of our current communities and the development of new communities;

other corporate initiatives (including information systems and branding);

·	acquisition consideration and transaction costs; and

·	purchases of common stock under our share repurchase authorization.

We are highly leveraged and have significant debt and lease obligations. As of March 31, 2013, we have three principal corporate-level debt obligations: our $230.0 million revolving credit facility, our $316.3 million convertible senior notes due 2018 and separate secured and unsecured letter of credit facilities providing for up to $92.5 million of letters of credit in the aggregate. The remainder of our indebtedness is generally comprised of non-recourse property-level mortgage financings.

At March 31, 2013, we had $2.3 billion of debt outstanding, excluding capital lease obligations and our line of credit, at a weighted-average interest rate of 4.50% (calculated using an imputed interest rate of 7.5% for our $316.3 million convertible senior notes due 2018). At March 31, 2013, we had $312.7 million of capital and financing lease obligations, $45.0 million was drawn on our revolving loan facility, and $78.0 million of letters of credit had been issued under our letter of credit facilities. Approximately $307.8 million of our debt and capital lease obligations are due on or before March 31, 2014. We also have substantial operating lease obligations and capital expenditure requirements. For the year ending March 31, 2014, we will be required to make approximately $279.1 million of payments in connection with our existing operating leases.

During April 2013, the Company completed refinancings of several mortgage loans totaling $339.3 million, which primarily had maturities in 2013. In their place, the Company obtained mortgage loans totaling $312.0 million to repay the loans, with the remainder paid in cash. Additionally, four communities became unencumbered and were added to the Company's line of credit borrowing capacity, increasing it by $25.7 million.

We had $28.2 million of cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2013, excluding cash and escrow deposits-restricted and lease security deposits of $145.5 million in the aggregate. As of that date, we also had $198.6 million of availability on our revolving credit facility (of which $45.0 million had been drawn as of March 31, 2013).

At March 31, 2013, we had $628.0 million of negative working capital, which includes the classification of $276.2 million of mortgage notes payable and $261.4 million of refundable entrance fees as current liabilities. Although the mortgage notes payable are scheduled to mature on or prior to March 31, 2014, we have the option, subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions (such as the absence of a material adverse change), to extend the maturity of approximately $80.0 million of certain mortgages payable included in such debt until 2020, as the instruments associated with such mortgages payable provide that we can extend the respective maturity dates for terms of seven years from the existing maturity dates. We presently anticipate that we will either satisfy the conditions precedent for extending these obligations and will exercise the extension options or we will refinance or repay the $276.2 million of mortgage notes payable at or prior to maturity. Based upon our historical operating experience, we anticipate that only 9.0% to 12.0% of the refundable entrance fee liabilities will actually come due, and be required to be settled in cash, during the next 12 months. We expect that any entrance fee liabilities due within the next 12

months will be fully offset by the proceeds generated by subsequent entrance fee sales. Entrance fee sales, net of refunds paid, provided $7.6 million of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

For the year ending December 31, 2013, we anticipate that we will make investments of approximately $150.0 million to $165.0 million for net capital expenditures (excluding expenditures related to our Program Max initiative discussed below), comprised of approximately $40.0 million to $45.0 million of net recurring capital expenditures and approximately $110.0 million to $120.0 million of expenditures relating to other major projects (including corporate initiatives). These major projects include unusual or non-recurring capital projects, projects which create new or enhanced economics, such as major renovations or repositioning projects at our communities, integration related expenditures (including the cost of developing information systems), and expenditures supporting the expansion of our ancillary services programs. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, we spent approximately $9.3 million for net recurring capital expenditures and approximately $25.2 million for expenditures relating to other major projects and corporate initiatives.

In addition, we have increased our efforts with respect to the expansion, redevelopment and repositioning of our communities through our Program Max initiative. We anticipate making net investments of approximately $75.0 million to $85.0 million during 2013 in connection with recently initiated or currently planned projects. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, we spent approximately $11.1 million in connection with our Program Max initiative.

During 2013, we anticipate that our capital expenditures will be funded from cash on hand, cash flows from operations, lessor reimbursement and amounts drawn on our credit facility.

As opportunities arise, we plan to continue to take advantage of the fragmented senior housing and care sectors by selectively purchasing existing operating companies, asset portfolios, home health agencies and communities. We may also seek to acquire the fee interest in communities that we currently lease or manage.

We expect to continue to assess our financing alternatives periodically and access the capital markets opportunistically. If our existing resources are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, or if we enter into an acquisition or strategic arrangement with another company, we may need to sell additional equity or debt securities. Any such sale of additional equity securities will dilute the interests of our existing stockholders, and we cannot be certain that additional public or private financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain this additional financing, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more aspects of our business development activities, any of which could reduce the growth of our business.

We currently estimate that our existing cash flows from operations, together with existing working capital, amounts available under our credit facility and, to a lesser extent, proceeds from anticipated financings and refinancings of various assets, will be sufficient to fund our liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months, assuming that the overall economy does not substantially deteriorate.

Our actual liquidity and capital funding requirements depend on numerous factors, including our operating results, the actual level of capital expenditures, our expansion, development and acquisition activity, general economic conditions and the cost of capital. Shortfalls in cash flows from operating results or other principal sources of liquidity may have an adverse impact on our ability to execute our business and growth strategies. Volatility in the credit and financial markets may also have an adverse impact on our liquidity by making it more difficult for us to obtain financing or refinancing. As a result, this may impact our ability to grow our business, maintain capital spending levels, expand certain communities, or execute other aspects of our business strategy. In order to continue some of these activities at historical or planned levels, we may incur additional indebtedness or lease financing to provide additional funding. There can be no assurance that any such additional financing will be available or on terms that are acceptable to us.

As of March 31, 2013, we are in compliance with the financial covenants of our outstanding debt and lease agreements.

Credit Facilities

On March 28, 2013, we entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement with General Electric Capital Corporation, as administrative agent and lender, and the other lenders from time to time parties thereto. The amended credit agreement amended and restated in its entirety our existing amended and restated credit agreement dated as of January 31, 2011, as previously amended. The amended credit agreement extended the maturity date of the facility to March 31, 2018 and decreased the interest rate payable on advances and the fee payable on the unused portion of the facility. The amended credit agreement also provides options to increase the committed amount initially from $230.0 million to $250.0 million and thereafter from $250.0 million to up to $350.0 million, subject to obtaining commitments for the amount of such increase from acceptable lenders. The amended credit agreement now also permits reduction of the committed amount or termination of the facility during the last two years of the five year term without payment of a premium or penalty.

The revolving line of credit can be used to finance acquisitions and fund working capital and capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes.

The facility is secured by a first priority mortgage on certain of our communities. The availability under the line will vary from time to time as it is based on borrowing base calculations related to the appraised value and performance of the communities securing the facility.

As of March 31, 2013, we had an available secured line of credit with a $230.0 million commitment and $198.6 million of availability (of which $45.0 million had been drawn as of such date). We also had secured and unsecured letter of credit facilities of up to $92.5 million in the aggregate as of March 31, 2013. Letters of credit totaling $78.0 million had been issued under these facilities as of that date.

Contractual Commitments

Significant ongoing commitments consist primarily of leases, debt, purchase commitments and certain other long-term liabilities. For a summary and complete presentation and description of our ongoing commitments and contractual obligations, see the "Contractual Commitments" section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in our contractual commitments during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The equity method of accounting has been applied in the accompanying financial statements with respect to our investment in unconsolidated ventures that are not considered variable interest entities as we do not possess a controlling financial interest. We do not believe these off-balance sheet arrangements have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as one that purports to measure historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows, but excludes or includes amounts that would not be so adjusted in the most comparable GAAP measure. In this report, we define and use the non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA, Cash From Facility Operations and Facility Operating Income, as set forth below.

Adjusted EBITDA

Definition of Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as follows:

Net income (loss) before:

provision (benefit) for income taxes;

non-operating (income) expense items;

·	(gain) loss on sale or acquisition of communities (including gain (loss) on facility lease termination);

depreciation and amortization (including non-cash impairment charges);

straight-line lease expense (income);

amortization of deferred gain;

amortization of deferred entrance fees;

non-cash stock-based compensation expense; and

·	change in future service obligation;

and including:

entrance fee receipts and refunds (excluding (i) first generation entrance fee receipts from the sale of units at a recently opened entrance fee CCRC prior to stabilization and (ii) first generation entrance fee refunds not replaced by second generation entrance fee receipts at the recently opened community prior to stabilization).

Management's Use of Adjusted EBITDA

We use Adjusted EBITDA to assess our overall financial and operating performance. We believe this non-GAAP measure, as we have defined it, is helpful in identifying trends in our day-to-day performance because the items excluded have little or no significance on our day-to-day operations. This measure provides an assessment of controllable expenses and affords management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieve optimal financial performance. It provides an indicator for management to determine if adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.

Adjusted EBITDA provides us with a measure of financial performance, independent of items that are beyond the control of management in the short-term, such as the change in the liability for the obligation to provide future services under existing lifecare contracts, depreciation and amortization (including non-cash impairment charges), straight-line lease expense (income), taxation and interest expense associated with our capital structure. This metric measures our financial performance based on operational factors that management can impact in the short-term, namely the cost structure or expenses of the organization. Adjusted EBITDA is one of the metrics used by senior

Table of Contents

management and the board of directors to review the financial performance of the business on a monthly basis. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by research analysts and investors to evaluate the performance of and value companies in our industry.

Limitations of Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. It should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures of earnings. Material limitations in making the adjustments to our earnings to calculate Adjusted EBITDA, and using this non-GAAP financial measure as compared to GAAP net income (loss), include:

the cash portion of interest expense, income tax (benefit) provision and non-recurring charges related to gain (loss) on sale of communities and extinguishment of debt activities generally represent charges (gains), which may significantly affect our financial results; and

depreciation and amortization, though not directly affecting our current cash position, represent the wear and tear and/or reduction in value of our communities, which affects the services we provide to our residents and may be indicative of future needs for capital expenditures.

An investor or potential investor may find this item important in evaluating our performance, results of operations and financial position. We use non-GAAP financial measures to supplement our GAAP results in order to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business.

Adjusted EBITDA is not an alternative to net income, income from operations or cash flows provided by or used in operations as calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. You should not rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a substitute for any such GAAP financial measure. We strongly urge you to review the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income (loss), along with our condensed consolidated financial statements included herein. We also strongly urge you to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. In addition, because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, the Adjusted EBITDA measure, as presented in this report, may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The table below shows the reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 (dollars in thousands):

Cash From Facility Operations

Definition of Cash From Facility Operations

We define Cash From Facility Operations (CFFO) as follows:

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities adjusted for:

changes in operating assets and liabilities;

deferred interest and fees added to principal;

refundable entrance fees received;

first generation entrance fee receipts at a recently opened entrance fee CCRC prior to stabilization;

entrance fee refunds disbursed adjusted for first generation entrance fee refunds not replaced by second generation entrance fee receipts at the recently opened community prior to stabilization;

lease financing debt amortization with fair market value or no purchase options;

gain (loss) on facility lease termination;

Table of Contents

recurring capital expenditures, net;

distributions from unconsolidated ventures from cumulative share of net earnings;

CFFO from unconsolidated ventures; and

other.

Recurring capital expenditures include routine expenditures capitalized in accordance with GAAP that are funded from current operations. Amounts excluded from recurring capital expenditures consist primarily of major projects, renovations, community repositionings, expansions, systems projects or other non-recurring or unusual capital items (including integration capital expenditures) or community purchases that are funded using lease or financing proceeds, available cash and/or proceeds from the sale of communities that are held for sale.

Management's Use of Cash From Facility Operations

We use CFFO to assess our overall liquidity. This measure provides an assessment of controllable expenses and affords management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial and liquidity goals as well as to achieve optimal financial performance. It provides an indicator for management to determine if adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.

This metric measures our liquidity based on operational factors that management can impact in the short-term, namely the cost structure or expenses of the organization. CFFO is one of the metrics used by our senior management and board of directors (i) to review our ability to service our outstanding indebtedness (including our credit facilities and long-term leases), (ii) to review our ability to pay dividends to stockholders, (iii) to review our ability to make regular recurring capital expenditures to maintain and improve our communities on a period-to-period basis, (iv) for planning purposes, including preparation of our annual budget, (v) in making compensation determinations for certain of our associates (including our named executive officers) and (vi) in setting various covenants in our credit agreements. These agreements generally require us to escrow or spend a minimum of between $250 and $450 per unit per year. Historically, we have spent in excess of these per unit amounts; however, there is no assurance that we will have funds available to escrow or spend these per unit amounts in the future. If we do not escrow or spend the required minimum annual amounts, we would be in default of the applicable debt or lease agreement which could trigger cross default provisions in our outstanding indebtedness and lease arrangements.

Limitations of Cash From Facility Operations

CFFO has limitations as an analytical tool. It should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures of cash flow from operations. CFFO does not represent cash available for dividends or discretionary expenditures, since we may have mandatory debt service requirements or other non-discretionary expenditures not reflected in the measure. Material limitations in making the adjustment to our cash flow from operations to calculate CFFO, and using this non-GAAP financial measure as compared to GAAP operating cash flows, include:

We believe CFFO is useful to investors because it assists their ability to meaningfully evaluate (1) our ability to service our outstanding indebtedness, including our credit facilities and capital and financing leases, (2) our ability to pay dividends to stockholders and (3) our ability to make regular recurring capital expenditures to maintain and improve our communities.

Table of Contents

CFFO is not an alternative to cash flows provided by or used in operations as calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. You should not rely on CFFO as a substitute for any such GAAP financial measure. We strongly urge you to review the reconciliation of CFFO to GAAP net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, along with our condensed consolidated financial statements included herein. We also strongly urge you to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. In addition, because CFFO is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, the CFFO measure, as presented in this report, may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The table below shows the reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to CFFO for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,

(2)	Entrance fee receipts include promissory notes issued to the Company by the resident in lieu of a portion of the entrance fees due. Collections, net of new issuances for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $2.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

(3)	Total entrance fee receipts for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $16.9 million and $15.0 million, respectively, including $9.2 million and $7.0 million, respectively, of non-refundable entrance fee receipts included in net cash provided by operating activities.

Facility Operating Income

Definition of Facility Operating Income

We define Facility Operating Income as follows:

Net income (loss) before:

provision (benefit) for income taxes;

non-operating (income) expense items;

·	(gain) loss on sale or acquisition of communities (including gain (loss) on facility lease termination);

depreciation and amortization (including non-cash impairment charges);

facility lease expense;

general and administrative expense, including non-cash stock-based compensation expense;

Table of Contents

·	change in future service obligation;

amortization of deferred entrance fee revenue; and

management fees.

Management's Use of Facility Operating Income

We use Facility Operating Income to assess our facility operating performance. We believe this non-GAAP measure, as we have defined it, is helpful in identifying trends in our day-to-day facility performance because the items excluded have little or no significance on our day-to-day facility operations. This measure provides an assessment of revenue generation and expense management and affords management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as to achieve optimal facility financial performance. It provides an indicator for management to determine if adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.

Facility Operating Income provides us with a measure of facility financial performance, independent of items that are beyond the control of management in the short-term, such as the change in the liability for the obligation to provide future services under existing lifecare contracts, depreciation and amortization (including non-cash impairment charges), straight-line lease expense (income), taxation and interest expense associated with our capital structure. This metric measures our facility financial performance based on operational factors that management can impact in the short-term, namely the cost structure or expenses of the organization. Facility Operating Income is one of the metrics used by our senior management and board of directors to review the financial performance of the business on a monthly basis. Facility Operating Income is also used by research analysts and investors to evaluate the performance of and value companies in our industry by investors, lenders and lessors. In addition, Facility Operating Income is a common measure used in the industry to value the acquisition or sales price of communities and is used as a measure of the returns expected to be generated by a community.

A number of our debt and lease agreements contain covenants measuring Facility Operating Income to gauge debt or lease coverages. The debt or lease coverage covenants are generally calculated as facility net operating income (defined as total operating revenue less operating expenses, all as determined on an accrual basis in accordance with GAAP). For purposes of the coverage calculation, the lender or lessor will further require a pro forma adjustment to facility operating income to include a management fee (generally 4% to 5% of operating revenue) and an annual capital reserve (generally $250 to $450 per unit). An investor or potential investor may find this item important in evaluating our performance, results of operations and financial position, particularly on a facility-by-facility basis.

Limitations of Facility Operating Income

Facility Operating Income has limitations as an analytical tool. It should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures of earnings. Material limitations in making the adjustments to our earnings to calculate Facility Operating Income, and using this non-GAAP financial measure as compared to GAAP net income (loss), include:

interest expense, income tax (benefit) provision and non-recurring charges related to gain (loss) on sale of communities and extinguishment of debt activities generally represent charges (gains), which may significantly affect our financial results; and

An investor or potential investor may find this item important in evaluating our performance, results of operations and financial position on a facility-by-facility basis. We use non-GAAP financial measures to supplement our GAAP results in order to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business.

Facility Operating Income is not an alternative to net income, income from operations or cash flows provided by or used in operations as calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. You should not rely on Facility Operating

Income as a substitute for any such GAAP financial measure. We strongly urge you to review the reconciliation of Facility Operating Income to GAAP net income (loss), along with our condensed consolidated financial statements included herein.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to market risks from changes in interest rates charged on our credit facilities, other floating-rate indebtedness and lease payments subject to floating rates. The impact on earnings and the value of our long-term debt and lease payments are subject to change as a result of movements in market rates and prices. As of March 31, 2013, we had approximately $1.4 billion of long-term fixed rate debt, $0.8 billion of long-term variable rate debt, excluding our line of credit, and $312.7 million of capital and financing lease obligations. As of March 31, 2013, our total fixed-rate debt and variable-rate debt outstanding had a weighted-average interest rate of 4.50% (calculated using an imputed interest rate of 7.50% for our $316.3 million convertible senior notes due 2018).

We enter into certain interest rate swap agreements with major financial institutions to manage our risk on variable rate debt. Additionally, we have entered into certain cap agreements to effectively manage our risk above certain interest rates. As of March 31, 2013, $1.5 billion, or 64.5%, of our debt, excluding our line of credit and capital and financing lease obligations, either has fixed rates or variable rates that are subject to swap agreements. As of March 31, 2013, $575.6 million, or 25.2%, of our debt, excluding our line of credit and capital and financing lease obligations, is subject to cap agreements. The remaining $235.4 million, or 10.3%, of our debt is variable rate debt,

Table of Contents

not subject to any cap or swap agreements. A change in interest rates would have impacted our interest rate expense related to all outstanding variable rate debt, excluding our line of credit and capital and financing lease obligations, as follows: a one, five and ten percent change in interest rates would have an impact of $7.9 million, $40.5 million and $54.2 million, respectively.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer each concluded that, as of March 31, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
