Item 1.02.           Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously reported, on March 19, 2012, Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. accepted for purchase approximately $169 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 7% Senior Notes due 2016 pursuant to the terms of its Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated March 5, 2012, following which approximately $6 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2016 Notes remained outstanding.  The 2016 Notes were originally issued under an Indenture dated as of December 30, 2005, as amended and supplemented, by and among Omega, certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors, and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee.

As previously reported, on March 19, 2012, at Omega’s direction, the Trustee gave notice of Omega’s election to redeem all of the remaining 2016 Notes on March 27, 2012.
 
On March 27, 2012, Omega irrevocably deposited $6,306,966.40 with the Trustee, for application to the payment of the redemption price of the remaining 2016 Notes.  The redemption price consisted of 102.333% of the principal amount of the remaining 2016 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such notes to, but not including, the date of redemption.

On March 29, 2012, the obligations of Omega and its subsidiary guarantors under the 2016 Notes, the Indenture governing the 2016 Notes and the related subsidiary guarantees were terminated, and the Indenture was discharged.  Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of the 2016 Notes, the Indenture and the subsidiary guarantees, certain customary provisions of the Indenture relating to the compensation and indemnification of the Trustee and the application of trust money will survive.

U.S. Bank National Association has performed corporate trust services for Omega from time to time, for which it has received customary compensation, and may do so again in the future.
