ARTICLE TWO
THE SERIES OF NOTES
SECTION 2.1. Title of the Securities.
There shall be a series of Securities designated the "6.95%
Notes due 2007" (the "Notes").
SECTION 2.2. Limitation on Aggregate Principal Amount.
The aggregate principal amount of the Notes shall be limited
to $100,000,000, and, except as provided in this Section and in Section 306 of
the Indenture, the Company shall not execute and the Trustee shall not
authenticate or deliver Notes in excess of such aggregate principal amount.
Nothing contained in this Section 2.2 or elsewhere in this
Supplemental Indenture, or in the Notes, is intended to or shall limit
execution by the Company or authentication or delivery by the Trustee of Notes
under the circumstances contemplated by Sections 303, 304, 305, 306, 905 and
1107 of the Indenture.
SECTION 2.3. Interest and Interest Rates; Maturity Date of
Notes.
The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 6.95% per annum from
August 5, 1997 or from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which
interest has been paid or duly provided for, payable semi-annually in arrears
on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing February 1, 1998 (each, an
"Interest Payment Date"), to the Person in whose name such Note is registered
at the close of business on January 15 or July 15 (whether or not a Business
Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date (each, a
"Regular Record Date"). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The interest so payable on any Note
which is not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date
shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Person in whose name such Note is
registered on the relevant Regular Record Date, and such defaulted interest
shall instead be payable to the Person in whose name such Note is registered on
the Special Record Date or other specified date determined in accordance with
the Indenture.
If any Interest Payment Date or Maturity falls on a day that
is not a Business Day, the required payment shall be made on the next Business
Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due and no interest shall
accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest
Payment Date or Maturity, as the case may be.
The Notes will mature on August 1, 2007.

greater than 60% of Adjusted Total Assets.
(b) In addition to the limitation set forth in subsection
(a) of this Section 2.4, the Company will not, and will not permit any
Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for
Debt Service to the Annual Service Charge for the four consecutive fiscal
quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such additional Debt is
to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5x, on a pro forma basis after
giving effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, and
calculated on the assumption that (i) such Debt and any other Debt incurred by
the Company and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter
period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance
other Debt, had occurred at the beginning of such period; (ii) the repayment or
retirement of any other Debt by the Company and its Subsidiaries since the
first day of such four-quarter period had been repaid or retired at the
beginning of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount
of Debt under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the
average daily balance of such Debt since the first day of such four-quarter
period); (iii) in the case of Acquired Debt or Debt incurred in connection with
any acquisition since the first day of such four-quarter period, the related
acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such period with the
appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition being included in such
pro forma calculation; and (iv) in the case of any acquisition or disposition
by the Company or its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets since the
first day of such four-quarter period, whether by merger, stock purchase or
sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related
repayment of Debt had occurred as of the first day of such period with the
appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being
included in such pro forma calculation.
(c) In addition to the limitations set forth in
subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.4, the Company will not, and will not
permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Secured Debt if, immediately after giving
effect to the incurrence of such additional Secured Debt and the application of
the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Secured
Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis is greater
than 40% of Adjusted Total Assets.
(d) The Company and its Subsidiaries will maintain Total
Unencumbered Assets of not less than 200% of the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of the Unsecured Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis.
(e) For purposes of this Section 2.4, Debt shall be
deemed to be "incurred" by the Company or a Subsidiary whenever the Company or
such Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in
respect thereof.

SECTION 2.5. Redemption.

the Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect to
such Notes (the "Redemption Price").
SECTION 2.6. Places of Payment.

through the Depositary for such Debt Securities. In the event the Notes are
issued in definitive form, or the Depositary with respect to any Global Debt
Securities is unable to effect payment of principal and interest on such Notes,
payment of principal and interest on such Notes will be made at the office or
agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose. In either case, payment of
the principal of and interest on the Notes will be made in such coin or
currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that at the
option of the Company, payments of principal and interest on the Notes (other
than payments of principal and interest due at Maturity) may be made (i) by
check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address
shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer to an account
maintained by the Person entitled thereto located within the United States.
SECTION 2.8. Currency.
Principal and interest on the Notes shall be payable in U.S.
Dollars.

provision is made for either or both of (a) defeasance of the Debt Securities
of or within a series under 1502 or (b) covenant defeasance of the Debt
Securities of or within a series under Section 1503, then the provisions of
such Section or Sections, as the case may be, together with the other
provisions of this Article (with such modifications thereto as may be specified
pursuant to Section 301 with respect to any Debt Securities), shall be
applicable to such Debt Securities, and the Company may at its option by Board
Resolution, at any time, with respect to such Debt Securities, elect to have
Section 1502 (if applicable) or Section 1503 (if applicable) be applied to such
Outstanding Debt Securities upon compliance with the conditions set forth below
in this Article.
SECTION 1502. Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company's
exercise of the above option applicable to this Section with respect to any
Debt Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be deemed to have been
discharged from its obligations with respect to such Outstanding Debt
Securities on the date the conditions set forth in Section 1504 are satisfied
(hereinafter, "defeasance"). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the
Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness
represented by such Outstanding Debt Securities, which shall thereafter be
deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the purposes of Section 1505 and the other
Sections of this Indenture referred to in clauses (A) and (B) below, and to
have satisfied all of its other obligations under such Debt Securities and this
Indenture insofar as such Debt Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at
the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the
same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated
or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of such Outstanding Debt
Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1504 and
as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal
of (and premium or Make-Whole Amount, if any) and interest, if any, on such
Debt Securities when such payments are due, (B) the Company's obligations with
respect to such Debt Securities under Sections 305, 306, 1002 and 1003, and
Article Thirteen (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the

Article Fifteen, the Company may exercise its option under this Section
notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 1503 with
respect to such Debt Securities.
SECTION 1503. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company's
exercise of the above option applicable to this Section with respect to any
Debt Securities of or within a series, the Company shall be released from its
obligations under Sections 1004
9
11
and Sections 1006 to 1008, inclusive, and, if specified pursuant to Section
301, its obligations under any other covenant contained herein or in any
indenture supplemental, with respect to such Outstanding Debt Securities
thereto on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1504 are
satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant defeasance"), and such Debt Securities shall
thereafter be deemed to be not "Outstanding" for the purposes of any direction,
waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any
thereof) in connection with Sections 1004 and Sections 1006 to 1008, inclusive,
or such other covenant, but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all
other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means
that, with respect to such Outstanding Debt Securities, the Company may omit to
comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or
limitation set forth in any such Section or such other covenant, whether
directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such
Section or other covenant or by reason of reference in any such Section or such
other covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such
omission to comply shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default under
Section 501(4) or 501(9) or otherwise, as the case may be, but, except as
specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Debt Securities shall
be unaffected thereby.

1502 or Section 1503 to any Outstanding Debt Securities of or within a series:

to, the benefit of the Holders of such Debt Securities, (1) an amount in such
currency, currencies or currency unit in which such Debt Securities are then

income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such
defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in
the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such
defeasance had not occurred.
(e) In the case of an election under Section 1503, the
Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that the Holders of such Outstanding Debt Securities will not recognize income,

Company, with respect to the trust funds representing such deposit or by the
Trustee for such trust funds or (ii) all necessary registrations under said Act
have been effected.
(g) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section,
such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any
additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations which may be imposed
on the Company in connection therewith pursuant to Section 301.

acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of
such Debt Securities of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of
principal (and premium or Make-Whole Amount, if any) and interest, but such
money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by
law.
Unless otherwise specified with respect to any Debt Security
pursuant to Section 301, if, after a deposit referred to in Section 1504(a) has
been made, (a) the Holder of a Debt Security in respect of which such deposit
was made is entitled to, and does, elect pursuant to Section 301 or the terms
of such Debt Security to receive payment in a currency or currency unit other
than that in which the deposit pursuant to Section 1504(a) has been made in
respect of such Debt Security, or (b) a Conversion Event occurs in respect of
the currency or currency unit in which the deposit pursuant to Section 1504(a)
has been made, the indebtedness represented by such Debt Security shall be
deemed to have been, and will be, fully discharged and satisfied through the
payment of the principal of (and premium or Make-Whole Amount, if any),
interest, if any, on such Security as the same becomes due out of the proceeds
yielded by converting (from time to time as specified below in the case of any
such election) the amount or other property deposited in respect of such
Security into the currency or currency unit in which such Debt Security becomes
payable as a result of such election or Conversion Event based on the
applicable market exchange rate for such currency or currency unit in effect on
the second Business Day prior to each payment date, except, with respect to a
Conversion Event, for such currency or currency unit in effect (as nearly as
feasible) at the time of the Conversion Event.
The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any
tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government
Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1504 or the principal and interest
received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which
by law is for the account of the Holders of such Outstanding Debt Securities.
Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding,
subject to Section 607, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from
time to time upon Company Request any money or Government Obligations (or other
property and any proceeds therefrom) held by it as provided in Section 1504
which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the
Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be
deposited to effect a defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, in
accordance with this Article.

having been rescinded or annulled, within a period of 10 days after there shall
have given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or
to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 10% in principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes a written notice specifying such default and
requiring the Compa-
13
15
ny to cause such indebtedness to be discharged or cause such acceleration to be
rescinded or annulled and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default"
hereunder; or
(8) the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of one
or more judgments, orders or decrees against the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount (excluding amounts covered by insurance) in
excess of $10,000,000 and such judgements, orders or decrees remain
undischarged, unstayed and unsatisfied in an aggregate amount (excluding
amounts covered by insurance) in excess of $10,000,000 for a period of 30
consecutive days; or
SECTION 2.14. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and
Annulment.
The provisions of the first paragraph of Section 502 of the
Indenture as applicable with respect to the Notes shall be deemed to be amended
and restated in their entirety to read as follows:

series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such

Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such portion of the
principal as may be specified in the terms thereof) of, and the Make-Whole
Amount, if any, on, all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a
notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders),
and upon any such declaration such principal or specified portion thereof shall
become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default with respect to the
Notes set forth in Section 501(6) of the Indenture occurs and is continuing,
then in every such case all the Notes shall become immediately due and payable,
without notice to the Company, at the principal amount thereof (or, if any
Notes are Original Issue Discount Securities or Indexed Securities, such
portion of the principal as may be specified in the terms thereof) plus accrued
interest to the date the Notes are paid plus the Make-Whole Amount, if any, on
the Notes.
SECTION 2.15. Provision of Financial Information.

of the Exchange Act, the Company will, to the extent permitted under the
Exchange Act, file with the Commission the annual reports, quarterly reports
and other documents which the Company would have been required to file with the
Commission pursuant to such Section 13 or 15(d) if the Company were so subject,
such documents to be filed with the Commission on or prior to the respective

Holders, copies of the annual reports and quarterly reports which the Company

OMEGA HEALTHCARE INVESTORS, INC., a corporation duly organized

[____________] MILLION DOLLARS on August 1, 2007 and to pay interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereon from August 5, 1997, or from the

duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 in each
year, commencing February 1, 1998, at the rate of 6.95% per annum, until the
entire principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so

Security is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for
such interest which shall be the January 15 or July 15 (whether or not a

Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may either

business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to

Securities not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to such
Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not

upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully
provided in the Indenture. Payment of the principal of and interest on this
Security will be made at the office or agency maintained for that purpose in
the City of New York, New York, or elsewhere as provided in the Indenture, in
such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment

that at the option of the Company payments of principal and interest on the
Notes (other than payments of principal and interest due at Maturity) may be
made (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such
address shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer to an
account of the Person entitled thereto located within the United States.
Securities of this series are one of a duly authorized issue
of securities of the Company (herein called the "Securities"), issued and to be
issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of January 28, 1997,
as supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 1, dated as of August 5, 1997 (as
so supplemented, herein called the "Indenture"), between the Company and NBD
Bank (herein called the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee
under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights,
limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the
Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the
Securities are authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series
designated in the first page thereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to
$100,000,000.
Securities of this series may be redeemed at any time at the
option of the Company, in whole or in part, upon notice of not more than 60 nor
less than 30 days prior to the Redemption Date, at a redemption price equal to
the sum of (i) the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed plus
accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount,
if any, with respect to such Securities.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time
of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Company on this Security, and (b) certain
restrictive covenants and the related defaults and Events of Default applicable

conditions set forth in the Indenture, which provisions apply to this Security.
If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall
occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities may be declared due
and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture,
the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any
proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver
or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have
previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default
with respect to the Securities, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal
amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made
written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such
Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity and
the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction
inconsistent with such request, and shall have
A-2
21
failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any
suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any
payment of principal hereof or any interest on or after the respective due
dates expressed herein.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of
each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and
the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series of Securities
then Outstanding affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the
Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of
all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain
provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security
shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of
this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer
hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of
such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this
Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and
Make-Whole Amount, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place
and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in
the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of
transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any Place of Payment where
the principal of (and Make-Whole Amount, if any) and interest on this Security
are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Debt Securities Registrar
duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing,
and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to
the designated transferee or transferees.
The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered
form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple
thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series of a different
authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge shall be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of
transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, whether or
A-3
22
not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such
agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or
agreement contained in the Indenture or in this Security, or because of any
indebtedness evidenced hereby or thereby, shall be had against any promoter, as
such, or against any past, present or future shareholder, officer or director,
as such, of the Company or of any successor, either directly or through the
Company or any successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional
provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable
proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released
by the acceptance of this Security by the Holder thereof and as part of the
consideration for the issue of the Securities of this series.
All capitalized terms used in this Security which are defined
in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
THE INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES, INCLUDING THIS SECURITY,
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.
Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on
Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused "CUSIP"

Holders of such Securities. No representation is made as to the correctness or
accuracy of such CUSIP numbers as printed on the Securities, and reliance may
be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose.
