The directors of Diversicare Healthcare Services have voted to accept a roughly $70 million acquisition proposal from an entity controlled by a veteran health care entrepreneur based in New York.

Per the agreement signed Thursday, investors in Brentwood-based Diversicare will receive $10.10 per share in cash from DAC Acquisition, which is more than three times the stock’s price the day before DAC announced its interest last week. DAC is led by Ephram Lahasky, whose portfolio includes ambulance and other medical transportation services as well as interests in more than 100 skilled nursing and other care centers in more than 20 states.
