TIMONIUM, MARYLAND -November 28, 2005- Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (NYSE:OHI) today announced that it is offering an additional $50 million aggregate principal amount of 7% senior notes due 2014 at an issue price of 100.25% of the principal amount of the notes, resulting in gross proceeds to the company of $50.125 million. The terms of the notes offered will be substantially identical to Omega’s existing $260 million aggregate principal amount of 7% senior notes due 2014. The notes will be offered only to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States under Regulation S under the Securities Act. The company will use the net proceeds of the offering to repay indebtedness under its revolving senior credit facility and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The notes issued in this offering have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any applicable state laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This notice does not constitute an offer of any securities for sale. Omega has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, pursuant to which it would exchange the privately placed notes for notes that are registered. After the exchange, these notes will be identical to, and will trade as a single series with, the existing 7% senior notes due 2014.
