EXPLANATORY NOTE

     Care Investment Trust Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, in order to amend and restate Part III, Items 10 through 14 and Part IV, Item 15 of the report on Form 10-K that we originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2011.

     This Form 10-K/A has been prepared and filed in reliance on General Instruction G to Form 10-K, which provides that registrants may provide the information required by Part III in a definitive proxy statement or an amendment to the Form 10-K filed with the SEC within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year covered by the report. The Company had initially planned to file the Part III information in a definitive proxy statement. The Company has determined to instead file this Form 10-K/A to provide the Part III information within the required time period. This Form 10-K/A also amends Item 15 to update the exhibit list that was originally provided in the Form 10-K.

     In accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), each item of the original Form 10-K that is amended by this Form 10-K/A is restated in its entirety, and this Form 10-K/A is accompanied by currently dated certifications on Exhibits 31.1 and 32.1 by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Exhibits 31.2 and 32.2 by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

     The original Form 10-K is therefore amended to: (i) delete the reference on the cover of the original Form 10-K to the incorporation by reference of a definitive proxy statement into Part III of such Form 10-K and (ii) revise Part III, Items 10 through 14 and Part IV, Item 15 of the Company’s original Form 10-K to include information previously omitted from the original Form 10-K.

     Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the original Form 10-K. The original Form 10-K continues to speak as of March 31, 2011, the date the Company filed the original Form 10-K with the SEC, and other than as expressly indicated in this Form 10-K/A, the Company has not updated the disclosures contained therein to reflect any events that have occurred at a date subsequent to March 31, 2011. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with the original Form 10-K and the Company’s other reports filed thereafter.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     Care Investment Trust Inc. (all references to “Care”, “the Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” mean Care Investment Trust Inc. and its subsidiaries) makes “forward-looking” statements in this Form 10-K/A that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts and can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “continue,” “should” and other comparable terms. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future results of our business and our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, plans and objectives. They also include, among other things, statements concerning anticipated revenue, income or loss, capital expenditures, dividends, capital structure, or other financial terms as well as statements regarding subjects that are forward-looking by their nature.

     The forward looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions, and expectations of our future performance, taking into account the information currently available to us. These beliefs, assumptions, and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us. If a change occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in our forward looking statements. You should carefully consider these risks that could cause actual results to vary from our forward looking statements when you make a decision concerning an investment in our securities. We are not obligated to publicly update or revise any forward looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Director Independence

     Our Corporate Governance Guidelines require that a substantial majority of the Board be composed of independent directors who meet the independence criteria established by our Corporate Governance Guidelines. For a director to be considered independent, the Board must affirmatively determine that the director has no material relationship with Care (either directly or as a partner, stockholder, or officer of an organization that has a relationship with Care). In assessing the materiality of a director’s relationship with Care, the Board broadly considers all relevant facts and circumstances, not only from the standpoint of the director, but also that of persons or organizations with which the director has an affiliation. The Board considers the following criteria, among others, in determining whether a director qualifies as independent:

• The director cannot have been an employee, or have an immediate family member who was an executive officer (excluding any interim executive officer position), of Care during the preceding three (3) years;

• The director cannot receive, or have an immediate family member who has received at any time during the previous three (3) years, more than $120,000 during any twelve (12) month period in direct compensation from Care (excluding any interim executive officer position), other than director and committee fees and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service (provided such compensation is not contingent on continued service);

• The director cannot be a partner of or employed by, or have an immediate family member who was a partner of or employed by, a present or former internal or external auditor of Care or any of its consolidated subsidiaries and personally worked on Care’s audit during the preceding three (3) years;

• The director cannot be employed, or have an immediate family member who was employed, as an executive officer of another company where any of Care’s present executives has served on such company’s compensation committee during the preceding three (3) years; and

• The director cannot be an executive officer or an employee, or have an immediate family member who was an executive officer, of a company that made payments to or received payments from Care in an amount per year in excess of the greater of $1 million or 2% of such company’s consolidated gross revenues during the preceding three (3) years.

          Our Definition of Independent Director is included as Appendix A to this Form 10-K/A. Our Board of Directors has affirmatively determined, based upon its review of all relevant facts and circumstances, that each of the following directors has no direct or indirect material relationship with us and is independent under our Definition of an Independent Director: Messrs. Besecker, Houlihan, Ilany, and Twiford. If Care’s securities become listed for trading on any exchange, the foregoing criteria may be replaced, if necessary, by the requirements in such exchange’s rules applicable to companies listed for trading on such exchange.

Audit Committee

          Our Board of Directors has established an audit committee that meets the definition provided by Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Audit Committee is comprised of three (3) of our independent directors: Messrs. Houlihan, Ilany and Twiford. In addition to satisfying our definition of independence, our Audit Committee members satisfy the definition of independence imposed by Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Mr. Houlihan chairs the committee and has been determined by our Board of Directors to be an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

     The Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in overseeing:

	•		our accounting and financial reporting processes;
	•		the integrity and audits of our consolidated financial statements;
	•		our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;
	•		the qualifications and independence of our independent auditors; and
	•		the performance of our independent auditors and any internal auditors.

     The Audit Committee is also responsible for engaging the independent auditors, reviewing with the independent auditors the plans and results of the audit engagement, approving professional services provided by the independent auditors and considering the range of audit and non-audit fees.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

     The Audit Committee oversees our financial reporting process on behalf of our Board of Directors, in accordance with our Audit Committee Charter, which was approved in 2007 and amended in 2010. Management has the primary responsibility for the preparation and presentation and integrity of our financial statements and has represented to the Audit Committee that such financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, our Audit Committee reviewed the audited financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 with management, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.

     Our Audit Committee reviewed with our independent auditors, who are responsible for auditing our financial statements and for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, their judgment as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of our accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the Audit Committee under Auditing Standards No. 114, Communication with Audit Committees (which supersedes Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended). Our independent auditors also provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosures required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board relating to the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with our independent auditors the auditors’ independence from both management and our Company.

     Our Audit Committee discussed with our independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their audit. Our Audit Committee met with our independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, and the overall quality of our financial reporting.

     In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, our Audit Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for filing with the SEC.

ITEM 11. Executive Compensation.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

     In the discussion that follows, we provide an overview and analysis of our compensation programs and policies, the material compensation decisions we have made under those programs and policies with respect to our current executive officers and the material factors that we considered in making those decisions. Following this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, beginning on Page 16 are a series of tables containing specific data about the compensation paid to our executive officers in 2010.

Executive Overview and Compensation Program Objectives

               In November 2010, we transitioned from an externally managed REIT to a REIT with a hybrid structure, including internal management and a Services Agreement with TREIT Management LLC (“TREIT”) (as more fully described under Item 13 below), which is an affiliate of Tiptree Capital Management, LLC (“Tiptree Capital”), by which Tiptree Financial Partners, L.P. (“Tiptree”), our largest shareholder, is externally managed. Prior to this transition, we had no employees and were managed by CIT Healthcare LLC. Of our current executive officers, Salvatore (Torey) V. Riso, Jr., our Chief Executive Officer, was employed by an affiliate of our former manager, while our Chief Financial Officer, Steven M. Sherwyn, joined us in a formal capacity after the transition from CIT Healthcare, and thus we did not pay any cash compensation to our executive officers in such capacity while we were managed by CIT Healthcare. In November 2010, in conjunction with the termination of CIT Healthcare as our external manager and our transition from an externally managed REIT to a REIT with a hybrid structure, including internal management and a Services Agreement with TREIT, we entered into employment agreements with our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Riso and our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Sherwyn (the “Employment Agreements”), which were approved by our CNG Committee, which consists of four of the members of our Board of Directors (the “Board”), all of whom are independent.

               Due to our recent transition into an internally managed REIT, part of our compensation objective is to provide compensation packages that take into account the level of responsibility and scope of duties of each of our executive officers consistent with an internally managed structure. In addition, the compensation packages are designed to achieve our goals of promoting financial and operational success by attracting, motivating and facilitating the retention of key employees with outstanding talent and ability. The compensation packages are also intended to reward the achievement of specific short and long-term strategic goals that are tied to creating stockholder value.

               Our 2010 executive compensation packages consisted of two components, which were designed to be consistent with our compensation objectives: (i) base salary and (ii) incentive payment. Because our executive officers were only employed by the Company for two months in 2010, the 2010 executive compensation packages did not include a performance based cash or equity bonus. We did, however, pay our executive officers a one time incentive payment, as discussed below on Page 12.

               In structuring the 2010 executive compensation packages, the Board and the CNG Committee focused primarily on our policy of attracting and retaining executive officers with outstanding abilities who could manage our Company effectively. Thus, the Board and CNG Committee designed the 2010 base salaries to be competitive in the marketplace based on the executive officers’ levels of skill and expertise. The incentive payments to Mr. Riso were designed to attract him to remain our President and Chief Executive Officer, which required him to leave his employment with an affiliate of our former manager, CIT Healthcare. The incentive payments to Mr. Sherwyn were designed to attract him to join our Company as Chief Financial Officer.

Compensation Methodology

               The CNG Committee is responsible for reviewing, evaluating and approving the performance and compensation of the Chief Executive Officer as well as recommending to the Board the compensation of our Chief Financial Officer. The CNG Committee reviewed the executive compensation structure developed in conjunction with our transition from an externally managed REIT to a REIT with a hybrid structure (including internal management and a Services Agreement with TREIT) and authorized the negotiation of the Employment Agreements by the Executive Committee of our Board (which at the time was comprised of Michael G. Barnes, the Chairman, and Geoffrey N. Kauffman, the Vice Chairman) and ultimately approved the Employment Agreements. Since then,

Mr. Riso has become a member of the Executive Committee. The Employment Agreements entered into between us and our executive officers established the executive compensation packages for 2010.

               In structuring the compensation packages for 2010, the CNG Committee was presented with compensation data for executives at a peer group of other Healthcare REITs, with positions and responsibilities comparable to those held by our executive officers to help them consider a competitive level of executive compensation, which consisted of the following companies:

HCP, Inc.		Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc.
Ventas, Inc.		Medical Properties Trust, Inc.
Health Care REIT, Inc.		National Health Investors, Inc.
Nationwide Health Properties, Inc.		LTC Properties, Inc.
Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated		Cogdell Spencer Inc.
Senior Housing Properties Trust		Universal Health Realty Income Trust

               This data consisted of base salary, cash bonus and equity award information, as well as total direct compensation paid by each of the peer companies as reflected in their proxy statements. Although the CNG Committee reviewed compensation data for executives at the peer companies with positions comparable to those held by our executive officers, the CNG Committee did not benchmark to a particular percentile or specific performance metric, but rather used the peer group information to help guide its compensation decisions.

               As discussed above, a key priority for us is to attract, retain and motivate a top quality management team. In order to attract a high caliber management team, the compensation packages offered must be competitive within the Healthcare REIT market, as well as reflective of the executive’s level of skill and expected contributions. The 2010 compensation packages for Mr. Riso and Mr. Sherwyn were the result of the CNG Committee’s understanding of the expected contributions in connection with the retention of Mr. Riso and the recruitment of Mr. Sherwyn, and the executive officers’ level of skill and compensation paid to similar positions within the peer group.

Executive Compensation Program Elements

               Base Salary: Base salary is intended to reward core competence in the executive officers’ roles relative to their skill and experience and is intended to be competitive to amounts paid to executive officers of other Healthcare REITs. Following the termination of CIT Healthcare as our external manager and our transition from an externally managed REIT to a REIT with a hybrid structure, including internal management and a Services Agreement with TREIT, from November 16, 2010, until December 31, 2010, Mr. Riso received a base salary of $225,000 per annum (pro-rated for the partial calendar year); and from November 1, 2010 until November 30, 2010 and from December 1, 2010 until December 31, 2010, Mr. Sherwyn received $150,000 and $200,000 per annum, respectively (pro-rated for the partial calendar year). Mr. Sherwyn also served as a consultant to the Company from September 14, 2010 through October 31, 2010 while the Company was still externally managed by CIT Healthcare. During this period, he received total cash compensation of $20,194 related to consulting fees for services rendered.

               Incentive Payment: As a part of our 2010 executive compensation packages, one-time cash and equity grants were awarded to our executive officers. As discussed above, these incentive payments were intended to assist in retaining Mr. Riso as our Chief Executive Officer, which required him to leave his employment with CIT Group, and recruit Mr. Sherwyn to join our Company as Chief Financial Officer. The one-time cash and equity grants included the following: for Mr. Riso, (i) a $100,000 cash payment and (ii) a grant of 42,105 shares, with a then-current market value of approximately $200,000; and for Mr. Sherwyn, a grant of 10,000 shares, with a then-current market value of $47,500.

2011 Executive Compensation Program

               Unlike our 2010 executive compensation packages, our 2011 packages will consist of three components, which are designed to be consistent with our compensation objectives: (i) base salary; (ii) annual cash performance bonus; and (iii) annual equity performance bonus, which are long-term equity incentive compensation awards.

               In structuring the 2011 executive compensation packages, the Board and the CNG Committee considered how each component promotes retention and motivates performance. Some of the compensation elements, such as base salaries and annual cash performance bonuses, are paid out on a short-term or current basis. Other elements, such as the annual equity performance bonuses are subject to multi-year vesting schedules, and are paid out over a

longer-term basis. We believe this mix of short- and long-term elements allows us to achieve our goals of attracting, retaining and motivating our top executives. Additionally, to emphasize performance-based compensation, the compensation packages are designed so that a substantial portion of the cash-based compensation may be earned through an annual cash bonus that is dependent on each of our executive officers’ performance and the performance of the Company as a whole.

               Base Salary: As discussed above, base salary is intended to reward core competence in our executive officers’ roles relative to their skill, experience and contributions to our Company and competitive to amounts paid to executive officers of other Healthcare REITs. In 2011, Mr. Riso will receive a base salary of $250,000 and Mr. Sherwyn will receive a base salary $200,000.

               Annual Cash Performance Bonus: Annual cash bonuses are primarily intended to motivate executive officers to achieve specific operational and financial objectives. Beginning in 2011, the Employment Agreements provide for an annual bonus that, in 2011, could range from $200,000 to $300,000 for Mr. Riso and from $100,000 to $200,000 for Mr. Sherwyn if certain performance Threshold, Target and Maximum targets that will be established by the CNG Committee are reached.

               Annual Equity Performance Bonus: Annual equity bonuses are long-term compensation awards designed to align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders. The equity awards granted to our executive officers are generally subject to time-based vesting requirements designed to promote the retention of management and are intended to align the long-term performance and interests of management to that of our shareholders. Beginning in 2011, the Employment Agreements provide for an annual equity performance bonus that, in 2011, could range in value from $125,000 to $375,000 for Mr. Riso and from $150,000 to $250,000 for Mr. Sherwyn if certain performance Threshold, Target and Maximum targets that will be established by the CNG Committee are reached. These long-term equity incentive compensation awards may consist of restricted stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights or other types of equity bonus awards, as determined by the CNG Committee and awarded pursuant to the 2007 Care Investment Trust Inc. Equity Plan (the “Equity Plan”) or any other equity incentive plan in effect at the time.

Retirement Plans

     Our executive officers and other members of our Company are eligible to participate in a 401(k) plan up to the maximum amount permitted under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code.

Termination and Change-in-Control Arrangements

     Under the Employment Agreements, the current executive officers are entitled to payments and benefits upon the occurrence of specified events including termination of employment. The specific terms of these arrangements are discussed under the heading “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” on Page 20. The terms of these arrangements were negotiated as a part of the Employment Agreements and were considered reasonable in light of our intention to retain Mr. Riso and recruit Mr. Sherwyn to join our Company.

Equity Compensation

     Our CNG Committee, may, from time to time, grant equity awards pursuant to our Equity Plan that is designed to align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders, by allowing our executive officers to share in the creation of value for our stockholders through stock appreciation and dividends. The equity awards granted to our executive officers are generally subject to time-based vesting requirements designed to promote the retention of management and to achieve strong performance for our Company. These awards further provide flexibility to us in our ability to attract, motivate and retain talented individuals. The Company did not grant any equity awards to any of its executive officers in 2010, however several grants vested during 2010. A more detailed discussion of the Equity Plan and the grants that vested during 2010 is included under the heading “Narrative to Summary Compensation Table for 2010 and Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table For 2010—Equity Compensation” beginning on Page 17 below.

Policy with Respect to Section 162(m)

     Section 162(m) of the Code generally disallows public companies a tax deduction for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 paid to their chief executive officers and certain of their other executive

officers unless certain performance and other requirements are met. Our intent generally is to design and administer executive compensation programs in a manner that will preserve the deductibility of compensation paid to our executive officers, and we believe that a substantial portion of our current executive compensation program satisfies the requirements for exemption from the $1,000,000 deduction limitation. However, we reserve the right to design programs that recognize a full range of performance criteria important to our success, even where the compensation paid under such programs may not be deductible. The CNG Committee will continue to monitor the tax and other consequences of our executive compensation program as part of its primary objective of ensuring that compensation paid to our executive officers is reasonable, performance-based and consistent with the goals of our Company and its stockholders.

     Interpretation of and changes in the tax laws and other factors beyond the CNG Committee’s control may affect the deductibility of certain compensation payments. The CNG Committee will consider various alternatives to preserve the deductibility of compensation payments and benefits to the extent reasonably practicable and to the extent consistent with its other compensation objectives.

Analysis of Risk in Compensation Program

               The structure of our Company’s compensation program is designed to discourage our executive officers from engaging in unnecessary and excessive risk taking. The compensation program is structured to focus our executive officers’ attention on financial and operating results in the near term and also to the creation of stockholder value over the long term. Our CNG Committee and Board of Directors considered the current risk profile of our Company’s 2010 compensation packages when approving them and will continue to do so as they further develop the 2011 compensation packages. In regard to the 2011 compensation packages, the CNG Committee will note ways in which risk is effectively managed or mitigated, including whether there is a balanced mix of the near term and long term elements that will comprise our 2011 compensation packages, whether there are varied performance metrics in our executive officers’ annual cash and equity performance bonuses and whether the CNG Committee has the ability to employ discretion when awarding annual and long-term incentive compensation. Accordingly, we believe that our compensation program (i) promotes behavior that is focused on the achievement of financial and operating metrics and supports sustainable value creation for our stockholders and (ii) is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

COMPENSATION, NOMINATING AND GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE REPORT

     Our CNG Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K with management and, based on such review and discussions, our Compensation Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this annual report on Form 10-K/A.

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table for 2010 and Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table for 2010

               The following discussion is intended to be read as a supplement to (i) the “Summary Compensation Table” and the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table” as well as the footnotes to such tables and (ii) the disclosure under the caption “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” above. Accordingly, the following discussion should be read in conjunction with such other disclosures.

               Employment Agreements

               Beginning in November 2010 in conjunction with our transition from an externally managed REIT to a REIT with a hybrid structure, including internal management and a Services Agreement with TREIT, we entered into employment agreements with each of our executive officers. We have summarized the material terms of these executive employment agreements under the caption “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” beginning on page 11 above and “Executive Compensation — Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” beginning on page 20 below.

               Equity Compensation

               Our CNG Committee, may, from time to time, grant equity awards designed to align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders, by allowing our executive officers to share in the creation of value for our stockholders through stock appreciation and dividends. The equity awards granted to our executive officers are generally subject to time-based vesting requirements designed to promote the retention of management and to achieve strong performance for our Company. These awards further provide flexibility to us in our ability to attract, motivate and retain talented individuals. Our Equity Plan provides for the issuance of equity-based awards, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock awards and other awards based on our common stock that may be made by us to our directors and officers and to our other employees and advisors and consultants who are providing services to the Company as of the date of the grant of the award. Shares of common stock issued to our independent directors with respect to their annual retainer fees are also issued under this plan.

               Our Board of Directors has delegated its administrative responsibilities under the Equity Plan to our CNG Committee. In its capacity as plan administrator, the CNG Committee has the authority to make awards to eligible directors, officers, employees, advisors and consultants, and to determine what form the awards will take

and the terms and conditions of the awards. Grants of equity-based or other compensation to our chief executive officer must also be approved by the independent members of our Board.

               The following grants were made in January 2011 to our current executive officers but were recognized as compensation by the Company in 2010:

               Special Incentive Grant to Mr. Riso and Mr. Sherwyn

               On January 3, 2011 as per the terms of his employment agreement which was executed as part of Care’s transition from an externally managed REIT to a REIT with a hybrid structure, including internal management and a Services Agreement with TREIT, Mr. Riso received 42,105 shares which had a grant date fair value of $200,000 and was recognized by the Company as compensation expense for the fourth quarter in 2010.

               On January 3, 2011 as per the terms of his employment agreement which was executed as part of Care’s transition from an externally managed REIT to a REIT with a hybrid structure, including internal management and a Services Agreement with TREIT, Mr. Sherwyn received 10,000 shares which had a grant date fair value of $47,500 and was recognized by the Company as compensation expense for the fourth quarter in 2010.

               The Company did not grant any equity awards to any of its executive officers in 2010, however the grants described below vested during 2010:

               Special Equity Grant to Mr. Riso and Mr. Hughes

               On March 12, 2009, our Board of Directors approved a special grant of 10,486 restricted stock units to Mr. Riso. The award was structured to vest in four equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date (March 12, 2010). Our Board of Directors granted the award to Mr. Riso, which had a grant date fair value of $62,497 based on our closing stock price on March 12, 2009 of $5.96 per share, to recognize Mr. Riso’s continued service to the Company. On January 28, 2010, under the terms of our Equity Plan, these restricted stock units, in addition to 12,210 restricted stock units previously issued to Mr. Riso, vested in connection with shareholder approval of the Company’s Plan of Liquidation.

               On May 7, 2009, our Board of Directors approved a special grant of 13,333 restricted stock units to Mr. Hughes. The award was structured to vest in four equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date (May 7, 2010). Our Board of Directors granted the award to Mr. Hughes, which had a grant date fair market value of $66,265 based on our closing stock price on May 7, 2009 of $4.97 per share, to recognize Mr. Hughes’s service to our company as the new chief financial officer and treasurer. On January 28, 2010, under the terms of our Equity Plan, these restricted stock units vested in connection with shareholder approval of the Company’s Plan of Liquidation.

               Performance Share Awards to Mr. Riso and Mr. Hughes

               On December 10, 2009, our Board of Directors awarded Mr. Riso and Mr. Hughes performance share awards with target levels of 5,000 and 3,000, respectively. These awards were amended and restated on February 23, 2010, such that the awards were triggered upon the execution, during 2010, of one or more of the following transactions that results in a return of liquidity to our stockholders within the parameters expressed in the agreement: (i) a merger or other business combination resulting in the disposition of all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of the Company; (ii) a tender offer made directly to our stockholders either by us or a third party for at least a majority of our issued and outstanding common stock; or (iii) the declaration of aggregate distributions by our Board equal to or exceeding $8.00 per share. If the net proceeds were less than $7.50 per share, each individual would receive 50% of their respective target awards. If the net proceeds were greater than or equal to $7.50 per share and less than or equal to $7.99 per share, each individual would receive his respective target award. If the net proceeds were equal to or exceeded $8.00 per share, each individual would receive 200% of his respective target award. Each performance share award would accrue any distributions declared during the award period without duplication.

               On August 12, 2010, under the terms of the performance share award and our Equity Plan, the performance share award issued to Mr. Riso and Mr. Hughes vested in connection with shareholder approval in connection with the Tiptree transaction, and Mr. Riso and Mr. Hughes achieved the maximum award of 10,000 shares and 6,000 shares, respectively.

               Compensation Mix

               As discussed in more detail in the section “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” beginning on Page 11 above, in 2010, our compensation program was comprised of the following two elements: (i) base salary and (ii) initial payment. The base salary awarded to the executive officers in 2010 was set at a level that was competitive based on the executive officers’ level of skill and experience. The initial payments were provided as a means of incentivizing Mr. Riso to remain our Company’s Chief Executive Officer and as a means of attracting Mr. Sherwyn to join our Company.

               Performance bonuses were not included in the 2010 executive compensation packages because the executive officers were only employees of our Company for two months in 2010, which was not a sufficient amount of time to determine whether a performance award was justifiable. Beginning in 2011, the executive compensation packages will include an annual cash bonus and an annual equity bonus. In implementing these performance bonuses in 2011, the CNG Committee will seek to achieve an appropriate balance among these elements to incentivize our executive officers to focus on financial and operating results in the near term and the creation of stockholder value over the long term.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End

     There were no Care equity awards outstanding as of December 31, 2010, which is the end of our Company’s fiscal year.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested

     We have not granted any stock options. Certain stock awards and restricted stock unit and performance share awards issued to our named executive officers, as further described in “Equity Compensation” on Page 13, vested during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and are set forth in the table below.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested Table

Steven M. Sherwyn (2)			10,000				47,500
Paul F. Hughes (3)			19,333				164,131

Pension Benefits

     Our named executive officers received no benefits in fiscal year 2010 from us under defined pension or defined contribution plans.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

     Our Company does not have a nonqualified deferred compensation plan that provides for deferral of compensation on a basis that is not tax-qualified for our named executive officers.

Other Plans, Perquisites and Benefits

          With limited exceptions, the compensation committee’s policy is to provide benefits to executive officers that are substantially the same as those offered to other officers and employees of our company at or above the level of vice president. In 2010, we did not provide our executive officers with any perquisites or personal benefits.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

               Severance and Other Benefits Upon Termination of Employment

          We have provided our executive officers with employment contracts that provide certain benefits depending on the circumstances surrounding their termination of employment with us. In addition to the benefits described below, upon termination of employment with us, the executive officer is generally entitled to amounts or benefits earned or accrued during the term of employment, including earned but unpaid salary. We have calculated the amount of any potential payments as if the termination occurred on December 31, 2010 and therefore used the closing price of our common stock as reported on the OTCQX on December 31, 2010, the last trading day of 2010.

          As described above under “Description of Employment Agreements,” the employment agreements we have with our current executive officers provide for payments of severance and other benefits upon termination of employment.

          If the executive officers’ employment is terminated for any reason (including the Company’s notice not to renew the Employment Period), except for a termination due to the expiration of the term of employment, by us for cause, a voluntary resignation without a good reason or on account of death or disability, the executive officers will be entitled to the following (collectively, the “Accrued Obligations”): (i) Base Salary (at the rate in effect at the time notice of termination is given) through the date of termination to the extent theretofore unpaid, (ii) the value of any vacation days earned but unused through the

date of termination, and (iii) reimbursement for all business expenses properly incurred in accordance with Company policy prior to the date of termination and not yet reimbursed by the Company. The executive officer shall also be entitled to (i) the greater of (1) 12 months or (2) the number of whole months between the termination date and February 1, 2013 of such executive officer’s base salary at the rate in effect at the time of termination; (ii) health benefits until the earlier of (1) the 12 month anniversary of the date of termination and (2) the date upon which executive receives similar health benefits or is eligible to receive them from a subsequent employer; (iii) full vesting of the Company’s equity awards as of the termination date and (d) continuing exercisability of all stock options and stock appreciation rights for the lesser of (1) 12 months after the date of termination or (2) the remainder of their term.

     If our executive officers’ employment terminates on account of death or disability, the executive officers or their estates shall be entitled to the following: (i) the Accrued Obligations; (ii) a pro-rated Annual Cash Bonus and Annual Equity Bonus based upon the number of days in the year of termination through the date of termination relative to 365 days, assuming for such purposes the performance targets applicable to the Annual Cash Bonus and the Annual Equity Bonus have been satisfied at the Target Bonus Level for the year in which the date of termination occurs; (iii) health benefits for 12 months following the date of termination; (iv) full vesting of all Company equity awards as of the date of termination; and (v) continuing exercisability of all stock options and stock appreciation rights for the lesser of (1) 12 months after the date of termination or (2) the remainder of their term.

     If our executive officers are terminated due to the expiration of their term of employment, by us for cause or if our executive’s employment shall be terminated without Good Reason, the executive officers will be entitled to the Accrued Obligations and the Company shall have no additional obligations to the executive officers.

     In providing the estimated potential payments, we have made the following general assumptions in all circumstances where applicable:

	•		The date of termination is December 31, 2010;
	•		Executive officers are entitled to termination benefits, including those provided for in the 2010 employment agreements;
	•		The annual base salaries at the time of termination is equal to the annual base salaries effective as of December 31, 2010;
	•		There is no unpaid bonus for 2010;
	•		There is no unused vacation time;

Plan of Liquidation

               On January 28, 2010, our stockholders approved a plan of liquidation, which was filed as Exhibit A to our definitive proxy statement filed on December 28, 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the restricted stock and restricted stock and performance share grant instruments and our Equity Plans, stockholder approval of the plan of liquidation resulted in the accelerated vesting of restricted stock and restricted stock and performance share awards.

               On March 12, 2009, our Board of Directors approved a special grant of 10,486 restricted stock units to Mr. Riso. The award was structured to vest in four equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date (March 12, 2010). Our Board of Directors granted the award to Mr. Riso, which had a grant date fair value of $62,497 based on our closing stock price on March 12, 2009 of $5.96 per share, to recognize Mr. Riso’s continued service to the Company. On January 28, 2010, under the terms of our Equity Plan, these restricted stock units, in addition to 12,210 restricted stock units previously issued to Mr. Riso, vested in connection with shareholder approval of the Company’s Plan of Liquidation.

               On May 7, 2009, our Board of Directors approved a special grant of 13,333 restricted stock units to Mr. Hughes. The award was structured to vest in four equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the

grant date (May 7, 2010). Our Board of Directors granted the award to Mr. Hughes, which had a grant date fair market value of $66,265 based on our closing stock price on May 7, 2009 of $4.97 per share, to recognize Mr. Hughes’s service to our company as the new chief financial officer and treasurer. On January 28, 2010, under the terms of our Equity Plan, these restricted stock units vested in connection with shareholder approval of the Company’s Plan of Liquidation.

Tiptree Transaction

               On March 16, 2010, we entered into a definitive purchase and sale agreement with Tiptree Financial Partners, L.P. (“Tiptree”) under which we agreed to sell newly issued common stock to Tiptree at $9.00 per share and to launch a cash tender offer for up to all of our outstanding common stock at $9.00 per share (the “Tiptree Transaction”). The Tiptree Transaction was approved by our stockholders on August 13, 2010, resulting in a change of control of the Company.

               On December 10, 2009, Mr. Riso was awarded a performance share award with a threshold, target and maximum award of 2,500, 5,000 and 10,000 shares, respectively. The grant date fair value of the award assuming the achievement of the highest level of performance is $79,800. On February 23, 2010, our Board amended the performance share awards. See “Executive Compensation — Performance Share Awards to Mr. Riso and Mr. Hughes” on Page 18 for more information on the amendment. On August 12, 2010, under the terms of the performance share award and our Equity Plan, the performance share award issued to Mr. Riso vested in connection with shareholder approval of the change of control to Tiptree and Mr. Riso achieved the maximum award of 10,000 shares.

See “Executive Compensation — Performance Share Awards to Mr. Riso and Mr. Hughes” on Page 18 for more information on the amendment. On August 12, 2010, under the terms of the performance share award and our Equity Plan, the performance share award issued to Mr. Hughes vested in connection with shareholder approval of the change of control to Tiptree, and Mr. Hughes achieved the maximum award of 6,000 shares.

ITEM 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

Policies and Procedures With Respect to Related Party Transactions

     Our Charter of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors requires that all related party transactions (generally, transactions involving amounts exceeding $120,000 in which a related party (directors and executive officers or their immediate family members, or stockholders owning 5% of more of our outstanding stock) had or will have a direct or indirect material interest) shall be subject to pre-approval or ratification by the Audit Committee in accordance with the following procedures. No related party transaction shall be approved or ratified if such transaction is contrary to our best interests.

     Each party to a potential related party transaction is responsible for notifying our Chief Compliance Officer (or such other person as the Audit Committee may require) of the potential related person transaction in which such person or any immediate family member of such person may be directly or indirectly involved as soon as he or she becomes aware of such transaction. Except in circumstances where such transaction is expected to qualify as an ordinary course transaction (generally, (i) transactions that occur between Care on any of its subsidiaries and an entity for which any related person serves as an executive officer, partner, principal, member or any similar executive or governing capacity, (ii) an ordinary course transaction in which such related person has an economic interest that does not afford such related person control over such entity on terms and conditions no less favorable to Care or (iii) immaterial relationships and transactions in the Instructions to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) such notification should be made prior to the time that the transaction is entered into and such notice shall provide the Chief Compliance Officer (or such other person) a reasonable opportunity, under the circumstances, for the required review of such transaction to be conducted before execution. Our Chief Compliance Officer (or such other person) will determine whether the transaction should be submitted to the Audit Committee for consideration. Unless the Committee otherwise determines after having been notified, any proposed

transaction directly between the Company and any related party transaction should be reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee prior to the time that such transaction is entered into.

     While our Chief Compliance Officer (or other person) should be notified of any related party transaction that is expected to qualify as an ordinary course exception, ordinary course exceptions shall not be related person transactions and do not require Audit Committee approval under our related person transactions policy. Our Chief Compliance Officer (or such other person) shall be responsible for making the initial determination as to whether any transaction appears to be within the scope required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K or whether such transaction is, in fact, an ordinary course transaction and must take all reasonable steps to ensure that all related party transactions or any series of similar transactions required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K are presented to the Audit Committee for pre-approval or ratification, if required under the Charter of the Audit Committee, at such Committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting, or by consent in lieu of a meeting if deemed appropriate.

     The Audit Committee shall review and assess the adequacy of our related party transaction policy and procedures annually and adopt any changes it deems necessary. Annually, each of our executive officer and director shall acknowledge their familiarity and compliance with our related person transaction policy.

Management Agreement

          In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into a Management Agreement with CIT Healthcare LLC (“CIT Healthcare”), which described the services to be provided by our former Manager and its compensation for those services. Under the Management Agreement, CIT Healthcare, subject to the oversight of our board of directors, was required to conduct our business affairs in conformity with the policies approved by our board of directors. The Management Agreement had an initial term scheduled to expire on June 30, 2010, which would automatically be renewed for one-year terms thereafter unless terminated by us or CIT Healthcare.

          On September 30, 2008, we entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Management Agreement between ourselves and CIT Healthcare. Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the Base Management Fee (as defined in the Management Agreement) payable to our former Manager under the Management Agreement was reduced from a monthly amount equal to 1/12 of 1.75% of the Company’s equity (as defined in the Management Agreement) to a monthly amount equal to 1/12 of 0.875% of the Company’s equity. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the Incentive Fee (as defined in the Management Agreement) payable to CIT Healthcare pursuant to the Management Agreement was eliminated and the Termination Fee (as defined in the Management Agreement) payable to CIT Healthcare upon the termination or non-renewal of the Management Agreement was amended to equal the average annual Base Management Fee as earned by our former Manager during the two years immediately preceding the most recently completed fiscal quarter prior to the date of termination times three, but in no event less than $15.4 million. No termination fee would be payable if we terminated the Management Agreement for cause.

     In consideration of the Amendment and for CIT Healthcare’s continued and future services to the Company, the Company granted CIT Healthcare warrants to purchase 435,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $17.00 per share (the “Warrant”) under the Manager Equity Plan adopted by the Company on June 21, 2007 (the “Manager Equity Plan”). The Warrant, which is immediately exercisable, expires on September 30, 2018.

     On January 15, 2010, we entered into an Amended and Restated Management Agreement (the “A&R Management Agreement”) with CIT Healthcare. Pursuant to the terms of the A&R Management Agreement, which became effective upon approval of the Company’s plan of liquidation by our stockholders on January 28, 2010, the Base Management Fee was reduced to a monthly amount equal to: (i) $125,000 from February 1, 2010 until the earlier of (x) June 30, 2010 and (y) the date on which four (4) of the Company’s six (6) then-existing investments have been sold; then from such date (ii) $100,000 until the earlier of (x) December 31, 2010 and (y) the date on which five (5) of the Company’s six (6) then-existing investments have been sold; then from such date (iii) $75,000 until the effective date of expiration or earlier termination of the Agreement by either of the Company or CIT Healthcare; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the base management fee shall remain at $125,000 per month until the later of: (a) ninety (90) days after the filing by the Company of a Form 15 with the SEC; and (b) the date that the Company is no longer subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. In addition, the termination fee payable to CIT Healthcare upon the termination or non-renewal of the Management Agreement was replaced by a buyout payment of $7.5 million, payable in installments of: (i) $2.5 million upon approval of the Company’s plan of liquidation by our stockholders; (ii) $2.5 million upon the earlier of (a) April 1,

2010 and (b) the effective date of the termination of the A&R Management Agreement by either of the Company or CIT Healthcare; and (iii) $2.5 million upon the earlier of (a) June 30, 2011 and (b) the effective date of the termination of the A&R Management Agreement by either the Company or CIT Healthcare. The A&R Management Agreement also provided CIT Healthcare with an incentive fee of $1.5 million if: (i) at any time prior to December 31, 2011, the aggregate cash dividends paid to the Company’s stockholders since the effective date of the A&R Management Agreement equaled or exceeded $9.25 per share or (ii) as of December 31, 2011, the sum of: (x) the aggregate cash dividends paid to the Company’s stockholders since the effective date of the A&R Management Agreement and (y) the aggregate distributable cash equals or exceeds $9.25 per share. In the event that the aggregate distributable cash equaled or exceeded $9.25 per share but for the impact of payment of a $1.5 million incentive fee, the Company shall have paid CIT Healthcare an incentive fee in an amount that allows the aggregate distributable cash to equal $9.25 per share. Under the A&R Management Agreement, the Mortgage Purchase Agreement between us and CIT Healthcare was terminated and all outstanding notices of our intent to sell additional loans to CIT Healthcare were rescinded. The A&R Management Agreement was to continue in effect, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms thereof, until December 31, 2011.

     On November 4, 2010, the Company entered into a Termination, Cooperation and Confidentiality Agreement (the “CIT Termination Agreement”) with CIT Healthcare. Pursuant to the CIT Termination Agreement, the parties terminated the A&R Management Agreement on November 16, 2010 (the “Termination Effective Date”). The CIT Termination Agreement also provides for an 180 day cooperation period beginning on the Termination Effective Date relating to the transition of management of the Company from CIT Healthcare to the officers of the Company, a two (2) year mutual confidentiality period and a mutual release of all claims related to CIT Healthcare’s management of the Company. Under the CIT Termination Agreement, the parties agreed that in lieu of the payments otherwise required under the termination provisions of the A&R Management Agreement, the Company would pay to CIT Healthcare on the Termination Effective Date $2.4 million plus any earned but unpaid monthly installments of the base management fee due under the A&R Management Agreement. Those amounts were paid in full in November 2010. The Company previously paid $5.0 million of this buyout fee during the first two quarters of 2010.

     For the period ended December 31, 2010, we recognized $8.8 million in management fee and buyout fee expense related to payments made to CIT Healthcare.

Services Agreement

     On November 4, 2010, the Company entered into a Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement”) with TREIT pursuant to which TREIT provides certain advisory services related to the Company’s business as of the Termination Effective Date. For such services, the Company pays TREIT a monthly base services fee in arrears of one-twelfth of 0.5% of the Company’s Equity (as defined in the Services Agreement) and a quarterly incentive fee of 15% of the Company’s AFFO Plus Gain/(Loss) On Sale (as defined in the Services Agreement) so long as and to the extent that the Company’s AFFO Plus Gain /(Loss) on Sale exceeds an amount equal to Equity multiplied by the Hurdle Rate (as defined in the Services Agreement). Twenty percent (20%) of any such incentive fee shall be paid in shares of common stock of the Company, unless a greater percentage is requested by TREIT and approved by an independent committee of directors. The initial term of the Services Agreement extends until December 31, 2013. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, the Services Agreement will be automatically renewed for one year periods following such date unless either party elects not to renew. If the Company elects to terminate without cause, or elects not to renew the Services Agreement, a Termination Fee (as defined in the Services Agreement) shall be payable by the Company to TREIT.

     For the year ended December 31, 2010, we paid $0.1 million in base services fee expense to TREIT Management.

Warrant

     In consideration of the Amendment and for CIT Healthcare’s continued and future services to the Company, the Company granted our former manager warrants to purchase 435,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $17.00 per share (the “Warrant”) under the Manager Equity Plan adopted by the Company on June 21, 2007 (the “Manager Equity Plan”). The Warrant, which is immediately exercisable, expires on September 30, 2018. As part of the Tiptree Transaction, Tiptree acquired the Warrant from CIT Healthcare for $100,000. This warrant was adjusted to reflect the Company’s three-for-two stock split announced in September 2010 and is currently exercisable into 652,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $11.33 per share.

Appendix A

DEFINITION OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR

     For purposes of this definition, “immediate family member” includes a person’s spouse, parents, children, siblings, mothers and fathers-in-law, sons and daughters-in-law, brothers and sisters-in-law, and anyone (other than domestic employees) who shares such person’s home.

A director shall be an “independent director” if such director:

1. is affirmatively determined by the Board, after consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances, as having no material relationship with Care (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with Care);

2. is not currently, and has not at any time during the last three years been, an employee of Care or any of its affiliates;

3. does not have an immediate family member who is, or has been in the last three years, an executive officer (excluding any interim executive officer position) of Care or any of its affiliates;

4. has not received direct compensation during any twelve-month period within the last three years of more than $120,000 from Care or any of its affiliates, other than director and committee fees, fees as an interim executive officer and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service (provided such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service);

5. has no immediate family members who have received direct compensation during any twelve-month period within the last three years of more than $120,000 from Care or any of its affiliates as an executive officer;

6. is not a partner of or employed by, and no member of such director’s immediate family is a partner of, the internal or external auditor of Care or any of its consolidated subsidiaries, and no such director’s immediate family is an employee of the internal or external auditor of Care and personally works on Care’s audit, nor was any member of such director’s immediate family within the last three years a partner of the internal or external auditor of Care and personally worked on Care’s audit;

7. is not employed and has not, and no immediate family member of such director is employed or has, within the prior three years been employed as an executive officer of another company where any of Care’s present executives serves on that company’s compensation committee; and

8. is not an executive officer or an employee, and no immediate family member of such director is an executive officer, of another company (A) that has made payments to Care in an amount which, in any of the last three fiscal years, accounts for at least 2% or $1 million, whichever is greater, of Care’s consolidated gross revenues, or (B) that has received payments from Care in an amount which, in any of the last three fiscal years, accounts for at least 2% or $1 million, whichever is greater, of such other company’s consolidated gross revenues; provided, however that if Care’s securities become listed for trading on any Exchange, the foregoing definition of “independent director” shall be replaced with the definition of independent director contained in such Exchange’s rules applicable to companies listed for trading on such Exchange.
