Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 12, 2016, Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (“Omega”) issued $700 million aggregate principal amount of Omega’s 4.375% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”) pursuant to an indenture dated as of July 12, 2016 among Omega, certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The offering was made pursuant to Omega’s automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333- 208710) and related free writing prospectus, preliminary prospectus supplement and prospectus supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The 2023 Notes mature on August 1, 2023. The 2023 Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.375% per annum, payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing on February 1, 2017. The 2023 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by Omega’s existing and future subsidiaries that guarantee indebtedness for money borrowed of Omega in a principal amount at least equal to $50 million (including as of the date hereof, Omega’s existing senior notes and the facilities under Omega’s credit agreements).

The 2023 Notes are Omega’s unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of Omega’s existing and future senior debt and senior in right of payment to all of Omega’s existing and future subordinated debt. The 2023 Notes are effectively subordinated in right of payment to any of Omega’s existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The 2023 Notes are structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities (including indebtedness, trade payable and lease obligations) of each of Omega’s non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Omega may redeem some or all of the notes prior to June 1, 2023 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus a “make-whole” premium calculated by reference to U.S. treasuries with a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the 2023 Notes, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date. The 2023 Notes will be redeemable at any time on or after June 1, 2023 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date.

The indenture governing the 2023 Notes contains certain covenants that limit the ability of Omega and certain of its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness and merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of the assets of Omega or its subsidiaries guarantors’ assets. The indenture also contains a covenant requiring Omega to maintain a certain amount of unencumbered assets.

The indenture governing the 2023 Notes contains customary events of default including, without limitation, failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, cross-acceleration to certain other indebtedness in excess of specified amounts and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. An event of default under the indenture governing the 2023 Notes will allow either the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of

the then outstanding 2023 Notes to accelerate, or in certain cases, will automatically cause the acceleration of, the amounts due under the 2023 Notes.

The foregoing description of the 2023 Notes and the indenture governing the 2023 Notes is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual text of the indenture governing the 2023 Notes (including the forms of 2023 Notes included therein), which is filed herewith as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03.    Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The disclosure contained in “Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement” is incorporated in this Item 2.03 by reference.
