NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Unaudited
September 30, 2021
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business Overview and Organization
Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (“Parent”) is a Maryland corporation that, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “Omega”, the “Company”, “we”, “our”, “us”) invests in healthcare-related real estate properties located in the United States (“U.S.”) and the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Our core business is to provide financing and capital to operators (we use the term “operator” to refer to our tenants and mortgagors and their affiliates who manage and/or operate our properties) within the long-term healthcare industry with a particular focus on skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”), assisted living facilities (“ALFs”), and to a lesser extent, independent living facilities (“ILFs”), rehabilitation and acute care facilities (“specialty facilities”) and medical office buildings. Our core portfolio consists of long-term “triple net” leases and mortgage agreements.
Omega has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes and is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT (“UPREIT”) under which all of Omega’s assets are owned directly or indirectly by, and all of Omega’s operations are conducted directly or indirectly through, its operating partnership subsidiary, OHI Healthcare Properties Limited Partnership (collectively with subsidiaries, “Omega OP”). Omega has exclusive control over Omega OP’s day-to-day management pursuant to the partnership agreement governing Omega OP. As of September 30, 2021, Parent owned approximately 97 % of the issued and outstanding units of partnership interest in Omega OP (“Omega OP Units”), and other investors owned approximately 3 % of the outstanding Omega OP Units.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the footnotes thereto included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2021.
Omega’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of (i) Parent, (ii) Omega OP, (iii) all direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Omega and (iv) other entities in which Omega or Omega OP has a majority voting interest and control. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation, and Omega’s net earnings are reduced by the portion of net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests.
Segments
We conduct our operations and report financial results as one business segment. The presentation of financial results as one reportable segment is consistent with the way we operate our business and is consistent with the manner in which our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), our Chief Executive Officer, evaluates performance and makes resource and operating decisions for the business.
Reclassification
Certain line items on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Operations, Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Risks and Uncertainties including COVID-19
The Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainties affecting the healthcare industry, including those stemming from the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) global pandemic described below, which has disproportionately impacted the senior care sector, as well as those stemming from healthcare legislation and changing regulation by federal, state and local governments. Additionally, we are subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of changes affecting operators of nursing home facilities due to the actions of governmental agencies and insurers to limit the rising cost of healthcare services.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2021
On July 19, 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842): Lessors – Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments . This guidance requires lessors to classify leases with variable lease payments, that do not depend on an index or rate, as an operating lease on the commencement date of the lease if specified criteria are met. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We early adopted this guidance prospectively effective July 1, 2021. The adoption of the guidance did not have an impact on our unaudited consolidated financial statements .

(1) The initial annual cash yield reflects the initial annual cash rent divided by the purchase price.
(2) On January 20, 2021, we acquired 24 facilities from Healthpeak Properties, Inc. The acquisition involved the assumption of an in-place master lease with Brookdale Senior Living Inc.
During the second quarter of 2021, we acquired one parcel of land (not reflected in the table above) for approximately $ 10.4 million.
During the third quarter of 2021, we purchased a real estate property located in Washington, D.C. (not reflected in the table above) for approximately $ 68.0 million and plan to redevelop the property into a 174 bed ALF. Concurrent with the acquisition, we entered into a single facility lease for this property with Maplewood Senior Living (“Maplewood”) through August 31, 2045. For accounting purposes, the lease will commence upon the substantial completion of construction of the ALF, which is currently expected to be in the first quarter of 2025. The lease provides for the accrual of financing costs at a rate of 5 % per annum during the construction phase. The lease provides for an annual cash yield of 6 % in the first year following the completion of construction, increasing to 7 % in year two and 8 % in year three with 2.5 % annual escalators thereafter. We are committed to a maximum funding of $ 177.7 million for the redevelopment of the real estate property, subject to ordinary development related cost changes (see Note 18 - Commitments and Contingencies).
NOTE 3 – ASSETS HELD FOR SALE, DISPOSITIONS AND IMPAIRMENTS
Periodically we will sell facilities to reduce our concentration in certain operators, geographies, and non-strategic assets or due to the exercise of a tenant purchase option. The following is a summary of our assets held for sale:

Asset Sales
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we sold 15 and 45 facilities, subject to operating leases, for approximately $ 109.7 million and $ 310.8 million in net cash proceeds, recognizing net gains of approximately $ 56.2 million and $ 160.6 million.
Real Estate Impairments
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded impairments on six and 13 facilities of approximately $ 4.9 million and $ 42.5 million, respectively. Our recorded impairments were primarily the result of reclassifying 12 facilities to assets held for sale for which the carrying values exceeded the estimated fair values less costs to sell. We also recognized an impairment on one held for use facility because of the closure of the facility in the first quarter. To estimate the fair value of these facilities, we utilized a market approach which considered binding sale agreements (a Level 1 input) or non-binding offers from unrelated third parties and/or broker quotes (a Level 3 input).

Agemo Holdings, LLC
In August and September 2021, Agemo Holdings, LLC (“Agemo”), a nonconsolidated variable interest entity (“VIE”), failed to pay contractual rent and interest due under their lease and loan agreements. Subsequent to quarter end, Agemo also failed to make contractual payments in October 2021. Agemo was formed in May 2018 by Signature Healthcare, LLC, as part of an out-of-court restructuring agreement, to be the holding company of their leases and loans with Omega. We placed Agemo on a cash basis of revenue recognition during the third quarter of 2020 as collection of substantially all contractual lease payments due from them was deemed no longer probable because of information received regarding substantial doubt of their ability to continue as a going concern. Agemo continued to make their rental and interest payments to us until August 2021. During August and September 2021, we recorded $ 8.4 million of revenue by drawing on the letter of credit and through application of the security deposit balance. See Note 6 – Other Investments for additional details on our loans with Agemo. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, Agemo generated approximately 4.7 % and 6.0 %, respectively, of our total revenues (excluding the impact of write-offs in 2020).
As part of the 2018 restructuring agreement with Agemo discussed above, Omega agreed to, among other terms, defer rent of $ 6.3 million per annum through April 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Agemo lease was amended to allow for the extension of the rent deferral through October 2021, which represents an additional deferral of approximately $ 3.2 million of rent. Additionally, in the third quarter, we entered into a forbearance agreement with Agemo pursuant to which we agreed to forbear from exercising remedies under our lease and loan agreements until October 31, 2021. The forbearance period and rent deferral period were subsequently extended to November 30, 2021.
Gulf Coast Health Care, LLC
During the second quarter of 2021, Gulf Coast Health Care LLC (together with certain affiliates “Gulf Coast”) stopped paying contractual rent under its master lease agreement for 24 facilities because of on-going liquidity issues. As discussed further in Note 21 - Subsequent Events, on October 14, 2021, Gulf Coast commenced voluntary cases under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Gulf Coast represents approximately 2.6 % and 2.8 % of our total revenues (excluding the impact of write-offs in 2021) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
11
Table of Contents
As a result of Gulf Coast’s non-payment of contractual rent, in the second quarter of 2021, we placed Gulf Coast on a cash basis of revenue recognition and wrote-off straight-line rent receivable balances of $ 17.4 million through rental income. Subsequent to placing Gulf Coast on a cash basis of revenue recognition in June 2021, we recognized $ 9.8 million of contractual rent during the second and third quarters, based on our ability to offset any uncollected rent receivables against Gulf Coast’s security deposit and against certain debt obligations of Omega, as discussed further below. We held a security deposit of $ 3.3 million from Gulf Coast, which we have applied against Gulf Coast’s obligations in the second and third quarters of 2021. In relation to Gulf Coast, Omega, through subsidiaries, is the obligor on five notes due to third parties with aggregate outstanding principal of $ 20.0 million (collectively, the “Subordinated Debt”) that bear interest at 9 % per annum with a maturity date of December 21, 2021 (see Note 15 – Borrowing Activities and Arrangements). Under the terms of the Subordinated Debt, to the extent Gulf Coast fails to pay rent when due to us under its master lease, Gulf Coast’s unpaid rent can be used to offset Omega’s obligations under the Subordinated Debt (on a quarterly basis with respect to interest and, under some circumstances, on an annual basis with respect to principal). As of September 30, 2021, we have offset $ 0.9 million of accrued interest under the Subordinated Debt against the uncollected receivables of Gulf Coast. We intend to offset any unpaid contractual receivables, after reflecting the application of security deposits and interest offsets, against the principal of the Subordinated Debt in the fourth quarter of 2021. As of September 30, 2021, we have $ 5.6 million of contractual rent receivables outstanding from Gulf Coast, after reflecting the application of security deposits and interest offsets, and without giving effect to our legal acceleration of rent discussed below.
As a result of Gulf Coast’s non-payment of contractual rent, in August 2021, we exercised our right to accelerate the full amount of rent due under Gulf Coast’s master lease agreement, payment of which will be subject to the Bankruptcy Code and approval of the bankruptcy court in Gulf Coast’s chapter 11 cases. In August 2021, following an assertion by the holders of the Subordinated Debt that our prior exercise of offset rights had resulted in defaults under the terms of the Subordinated Debt, we also filed suit in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County against the holders of the Subordinated Debt seeking a declaratory judgment to, among other items, declare that the aggregate amount of unpaid rent due from Gulf Coast under the master lease agreement exceeds all amounts which otherwise would be due and owing by Omega under the Subordinated Debt, and that all principal and interest due and owing under the Subordinated Debt are to be offset in full as of December 31, 2021. In October 2021, the defendants in the case filed a motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction. While Omega believes it is entitled to the enforcement of the offset rights sought in the action, the outcome of litigation is unpredictable, and Omega cannot predict the outcome of the declaratory judgment action.
Other straight-line receivables and write-offs
In addition to the Gulf Coast straight-line receivable write-off in the second quarter discussed above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we wrote-off straight-line rent receivable balances of $ 3.4 million through rental income primarily due to placing three other operators ( 1 operator in the first quarter and 2 operators in the third quarter) on a cash basis of revenue recognition. We determined that collection of substantially all contractual lease payments with these operators was no longer probable for various reasons. The placement of an operator on a cash basis of revenue recognition during the first quarter was because the operator stopped paying contractual rent under our lease agreement. The two operators placed on a cash basis of revenue recognition during the third quarter are current with rent payments as of September 30, 2021. The three operators collectively represent approximately 0.3 % and 0.5 % , respectively, of our total revenues (excluding the impact of write-offs in 2021) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.
NOTE 5 – MORTGAGE NOTES RECEIVABLE
As of September 30, 2021, mortgage notes receivable relate to six fixed rate mortgage notes on 65 facilities. The mortgage notes are secured by first mortgage liens on the borrowers’ underlying real estate and personal property. The mortgage notes receivable relate to facilities located in six states that are operated by six independent healthcare operating companies. We monitor compliance with the terms of our mortgages and when necessary have initiated collection, foreclosure and other proceedings with respect to certain outstanding mortgage notes.

(1) Approximates the weighted average interest rate on 45 facilities as of September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, the carrying amount includes a construction mortgage that was originated during the third quarter of 2021 with an outstanding principal balance of $ 7.4 million that matures in 2023 and a facility mortgage with an outstanding principal balance of $ 21.3 million that matures in 2021 , with the remaining loan balance maturing in 2029 . During the second quarter of 2021, one construction mortgage with an original maturity date of 2021 was extended to 2029 and converted into a facility mortgage. During the third quarter of 2021, we acquired a facility which was previously subject to a $ 13.9 million construction mortgage and subsequently leased the property back to the operator that was the borrower under the mortgage.
(2) Other mortgages outstanding have a weighted average interest rate of 8.84 % per annum as of September 30, 2021 and maturity dates ranging from 2023 through 2032 .
Other mortgage notes outstanding
On July 1, 2021, we financed six SNFs in Ohio and amended an existing $ 6.4 million mortgage, inclusive of 2 Ohio SNFs, to include the six facilities in a consolidated $ 72.4 million mortgage for eight Ohio facilities bearing interest at an initial rate of 10.5 % per annum. In conjunction with this transaction, we also acquired three Maryland facilities that were previously subject to a mortgage issued by Omega bearing interest at 13.75 % per annum with a principal balance of $ 36.0 million that was included in other mortgage notes outstanding. The purchase price for these three facilities was equal to the remaining mortgage principal amount, and the three acquired Maryland facilities were subsequently leased back to the seller for a term expiring on December 31, 2032 , assuming Omega exercises the options under the agreement. The base rent in the initial year is approximately $ 5.0 million and includes annual escalators of 2.5 %.

Other investment notes due 2024-2025
As discussed in Note 4 – Contractual Receivables and Other Receivables and Lease Inducements, Agemo failed to pay contractual rent and interest to us from August 2021 through October 2021. As of September 30, 2021, we have two loans outstanding to Agemo, a term loan with remaining principal of $ 32.0 million that bears interest at 9 % per annum and matures on December 31, 2024 (the “Agemo Term Loan”) and a $ 25.0 million secured working capital loan bearing interest at 7 % per annum that matures on April 30, 2025 (the “Agemo WC Loan”). The Agemo Term Loan is secured by a security interest in certain collateral of Agemo and the Agemo WC Loan is secured by a collateral package that includes a second lien on the accounts receivable of Agemo. During the third quarter of 2020, we evaluated both loans for impairment upon receiving information from Agemo regarding substantial doubt of its ability to continue as a going concern. Based on our evaluation, we recorded a provision for credit loss of $ 22.7 million in the third quarter of 2020 to reduce the carrying value of the loans to the fair value of the underlying collateral.
We have continued to monitor the fair value of the collateral associated with these loans on a quarterly basis. In the third quarter of 2021, we recorded an additional provision for credit losses of $ 16.7 million related to these loans as a result of a reduction in the fair value of the underlying collateral assets supporting the current carrying values. The reduction in fair value of the collateral assets was primarily driven by the application of Agemo’s $ 9.3 million letter of credit to Omega’s uncollected receivables, that supported the value of the Agemo Term Loan, and a reduction in Agemo’s working capital accessible to Omega as collateral, after considering other liens on the assets.
NOTE 7 – ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The allowance for credit losses on loans is measured using relevant information about past events, including historical credit loss experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the remaining cash flows over the contractual term of the loans. We elected to disaggregate our financial assets within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification 326 based on the type of financial instrument. These segments were further disaggregated based on our internal credit ratings. We assess our internal credit ratings on a quarterly basis. Our internal credit ratings consider several factors including the collateral and/or security, the performance of borrowers underlying facilities, if applicable, available credit support (e.g., guarantees), borrowings with third parties, and other ancillary business ventures and real estate operations of the borrower. Our internal ratings range between 1 and 7. An internal rating of 1 reflects the lowest likelihood of loss and a 7 reflects the highest likelihood of loss.
We have a limited history of incurred losses and consequently have elected to employ external data to perform our expected credit loss calculation. We have elected a probability of default (“PD”) and loss given default (“LGD”) methodology. Our model’s historic inputs consider PD and LGD data for residential care facilities published by the Federal Housing Administration along with Standards & Poor’s one-year global corporate default rates. Our historical loss rates revert to historical averages after 36 periods. Our model’s current conditions and supportable forecasts consider internal credit ratings, current and projected U.S. unemployment rates published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis and the weighted average life to maturity of the underlying financial asset. As of September 30, 2021, $ 10.6 million of contractual interest receivable is recorded in contractual receivables – net and $ 10.0 million of effective yield interest receivables is recorded in other receivables and lease inducements on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, both of which are excluded from our allowance for credit losses. During the third quarter of 2020, we determined that interest receivable of $ 3.8 million (related to the Agemo term loans) was no longer considered collectible. As such, we reserved approximately $ 3.8 million of interest receivable through the provision for credit losses during the three month period ended September 30, 2020.

Table of Contents
Periodically, the Company may identify an individual loan for impairment. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due as scheduled according to the contractual terms of the loan agreements. Our assessment of collectibility considers several factors, including, among other things, payment history, the financial strength of the borrower and any guarantors, historical operations and operating trends, current and future economic conditions, expectations of performance (which includes known substantial doubt about an operator’s ability to continue as a going concern) and the value of the underlying collateral of the agreement, if any. Consistent with this definition, all loans on non-accrual status may be deemed impaired. To the extent circumstances improve and the risk of collectibility is diminished, we will return these loans to full accrual status. When we identify a loan impairment, the loan is written down to the present value of the expected future cash flows. In cases where expected future cash flows are not readily determinable, the loan is written down to the fair value of the underlying collateral. We may base our valuation on a loan’s observable market price, if any, or the fair value of collateral, net of sales costs, if the repayment of the loan is expected to be provided solely by the sale of the collateral.

(1) Amount reflects the movement of reserves associated with a $ 112.5 million mortgage for 9 facilities with Guardian Healthcare (“Guardian”) due to a reduction of our internal risk rating from a 4 to a 5 on the loan in the third quarter of 2021. The risk rating reduction was primarily due to concerns regarding the fair value of the collateral associated with the mortgage loan as well as an increase in the probability of a modification to the loan that may result in a troubled debt restructuring. As discussed further in Note 21 – Subsequent Events, in October 2021, Guardian stopped paying contractual rent and interest under its lease and loan agreements.
(2) Amount reflects the movement of $ 27.2 million of reserves from Other Investments with a rating of 4 to Other Investments with a rating of 6 as a result of a reduction of our internal credit rating from a 4 to a 6 on the Agemo Term Loan and one other loan during the third quarter of 2021. The provision for Other Investments with a rating of 6 also reflects $ 8.8 million of additional allowance recorded in the third quarter of 2021 to fully impair the remaining carrying value of the Agemo Term Loan. See Note 6 – Other Investments for additional information on the conditions that drove the Agemo Term Loan impairment and ratings reduction.
(3) The provision includes an additional $ 7.9 million of allowance recorded on the Agemo WC Loan during the third quarter of 2021. We also reduced the internal rating on the Agemo WC Loan from a 4 to a 5 during the third quarter of 2021. See Note 6 – Other Investments for additional information on the conditions that drove the Agemo WC Loan impairment and rating reduction.

NOTE 8 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Agemo and Maplewood are both VIEs. As of September 30, 2021, we have not consolidated any VIEs, as we have concluded that we are not the primary beneficiary. This conclusion is based on the fact that we do not have the power to direct the activities of any VIEs that most significantly impact their economic performance and we do not have the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits of the VIEs that could be significant to the entities.
Below is a summary of our assets, liabilities and collateral associated with these operators as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

(1) As discussed in Note 4 – Contractual Receivables and Other Receivables and Lease Inducements, we applied Agemo’s entire letter of credit against their uncollected rent receivables during the third quarter of 2021. As discussed in Note 6 – Other Investments and Note 7 – Allowance for Credit Loss, we recorded an additional reserve of $ 16.7 million on our loans with Agemo during the third quarter of 2021.
(2) Amount excludes Agemo’s accounts receivable that Omega has a second priority security interest on as collateral under the Agemo WC Loan. The fair value of the accounts receivable available to Omega was $ 16.7 million and $ 25.0 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
In determining our maximum exposure to loss from the VIE, we considered the underlying carrying value of the real estate subject to leases with the operator and other collateral, if any, supporting our other investments, which may include accounts receivable, security deposits, letters of credit or personal guarantees, if any, as well as other liabilities recognized with respect to these operators.

Asset Management Fees
We receive asset management fees from certain joint ventures for services provided. For each of the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we recognized approximately $ 0.2 million and $ 0.3 million, respectively, of asset management fees. For each of the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we recognized approximately $ 0.7 million and $ 1.0 million, respectively, of asset management fees. These fees are included in miscellaneous income in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Other Equity Investments
In the third quarter of 2021, we made an investment of $ 20.0 million in SafelyYou, Inc. (“SafelyYou”), a technology company that has developed artificial intelligence-enabled video that detects and helps prevent resident falls in ALFs and SNFs. Through our investment, we obtained preferred shares representing 5 % of the outstanding equity of SafelyYou and warrants to purchase SafelyYou common stock representing an additional 5 % of outstanding equity as of the date of our investment. SafelyYou has committed, for a specified period, to using the proceeds of our investment to install its technology in our facilities or other facilities of our operators. The vesting of the warrants is contingent upon SafelyYou’s attainment of certain installation targets in our facilities. To the extent these installation targets are not attained, the investment funds associated with the unvested warrants would be returned to Omega. The investment in the preferred shares and warrants are recorded within other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 11 – CONCENTRATION OF RISK
As of September 30, 2021, our portfolio of real estate investments (including properties associated with mortgages, direct financing leases, and assets held for sale) consisted of 963 healthcare facilities, located in 42 states and the U.K. and operated by 63 third-party operators. Our investment in these facilities, net of impairments and allowances, totaled approximately $ 10.2 billion at September 30, 2021, with approximately 98 % of our real estate investments related to healthcare facilities. Our portfolio is made up of (i) 716 SNFs, 134 ALFs, 35 specialty facilities, two medical office buildings, (ii) fixed rate mortgages on 60 SNFs, three ALFs and two specialty facilities, and (iii) 11 facilities that are held for sale. At September 30, 2021, we also held other investments of approximately $ 434.0 million, consisting primarily of secured loans to third-party operators of our facilities and $ 193.7 million of investments in six unconsolidated joint ventures.
At September 30, 2021 we had investments with two operators/or managers that approximated or exceeded 10% of our total investments: Maplewood and Consulate Health Care (“Consulate”). Maplewood generated approximately 8 % and 5 % of our total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 8 % and 5 % of our total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Consulate generated approximately 9 % of our total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 9 % of our total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
At September 30, 2021, the three states in which we had our highest concentration of investments were Florida ( 15 %), Texas ( 10 %) and Michigan ( 6 %).

At-The-Market Offering Programs
During the third quarter of 2015, Omega entered into Equity Distribution Agreements with several financial institutions to sell $ 500.0 million of shares of common stock from time to time through an “at-the-market” (“ATM”) offering program (the “2015 ATM Program”).
During the second quarter of 2021, we terminated the 2015 ATM Program and entered into a new ATM Equity Offering Sales Agreement pursuant to which shares of common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $ 1.0 billion (the “2021 ATM Program”) may be sold from time to time (i) by Omega through several financial institutions acting as a sales agent or directly to the financial institutions as principals, or (ii) by several financial institutions acting as forward sellers on behalf of any forward purchasers pursuant to a forward sale agreement. Under the 2021 ATM Program, compensation for sales of the shares will not exceed 2 % of the gross sales price per share for shares sold through each financial institution. The use of forward sales under the 2021 ATM Program generally allows Omega to lock in a price on the sale of shares of common stock when sold by the forward sellers but defer receiving the net proceeds from such sales until the shares of our common stock are issued at settlement on a later date. We did not utilize the forward provisions under the 2021 ATM Program during the second or third quarter of 2021.

NOTE 13 – TAXES
Omega was organized, has operated, and intends to continue to operate in a manner that enables Omega to qualify for taxation as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. On a quarterly and annual basis, we perform several analyses to test our compliance within the REIT taxation rules. If we fail to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT in any tax year, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent years, unless we qualify for certain relief provisions that are available in the event we fail to satisfy any of the requirements.
We are also subject to federal taxation of 100 % of the net income derived from the sale or other disposition of property, other than foreclosure property, that we held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business. We believe that we do not hold assets for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business and that none of the assets currently held for sale or that have been sold would be considered a prohibited transaction within the REIT taxation rules.
As a REIT under the Code, we generally will not be subject to federal income taxes on the REIT taxable income that we distribute to stockholders, subject to certain exceptions. In 2020, we distributed dividends in excess of our taxable income.
We currently own stock in entities that have elected to be taxed as a REIT. These subsidiary REITs are required to individually satisfy all of the rules for qualification as a REIT.

Table of Contents
We have elected to treat certain of our active subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). Our domestic TRSs are subject to income taxes at the applicable corporate rates. Our foreign TRSs are subject to foreign income taxes and may be subject to current-year income inclusion relating to ownership of a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. income tax purposes. As of September 30, 2021, one of our TRSs that is subject to income taxes at the applicable corporate rates had a net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forward of approximately $ 6.5 million. Our NOL carry-forward was fully reserved as of September 30, 2021, with a valuation allowance due to uncertainties regarding realization.

Table of Contents
Unsecured Borrowings
Revolving Credit Facility
On April 30, 2021, Omega entered into a credit agreement (the “2021 Omega Credit Agreement”) providing us with a new $ 1.45 billion senior unsecured multicurrency revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), replacing our previous $ 1.25 billion senior unsecured 2017 multicurrency revolving credit facility (the “2017 Revolving Credit Facility”). The 2021 Omega Credit Agreement contains an accordion feature permitting us, subject to compliance with customary conditions, to increase the maximum aggregate commitments thereunder to $ 2.5 billion, by requesting an increase in the aggregate commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility or by adding term loan tranches.
The Revolving Credit Facility bears interest at LIBOR (or in the case of loans denominated in GBP, the Sterling overnight index average reference rate plus an adjustment of 0.1193 % per annum) plus an applicable percentage (with a range of 95 to 185 basis points) based on our credit ratings. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on April 30, 2025, subject to Omega’s option to extend such maturity date for two six-month periods. The Revolving Credit Facility may be drawn in Euros, GBP, Canadian Dollars (collectively, “Alternative Currencies”) or USD, with a $ 1.15 billion tranche available in USD and a $ 300 million tranche available in Alternative Currencies. For purposes of the Revolving Credit Facility, references to LIBOR include the Canadian dealer offered rates for amounts offered in Canadian Dollars and any other Alternative Currency rate approved in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Omega Credit Agreement for amounts offered in any other non-London interbank offered rate quoted currency, as applicable.
We incurred $ 12.9 million of deferred costs in connection with the 2021 Omega Credit Agreement.
OP Term Loan
On April 30, 2021, Omega OP entered into a credit agreement (the “2021 Omega OP Credit Agreement”) providing it with a new $ 50 million senior unsecured term loan facility (the “OP Term Loan”). The OP Term Loan replaces the $ 50 million senior unsecured term loan obtained in 2017 (the “2017 OP Term Loan”) and the related credit agreement. The OP Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable percentage (with a range of 85 to 185 basis points) based on our credit ratings. The OP Term Loan matures on April 30, 2025 , subject to Omega OP’s option to extend such maturity date for two , six-month periods.
We incurred $ 0.4 million of deferred costs in connection with the 2021 Omega OP Credit Agreement.
NOTE 16 – DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING
We are exposed to, among other risks, the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates as a result of our investments in the U.K. and interest rate risk related to our capital structure. As a matter of policy, we do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Our risk management program is designed to manage the exposure and volatility arising from these risks, and utilizes foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and debt issued in foreign currencies to offset a portion of these risks.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
We enter into interest rate swaps in order to maintain a capital structure containing targeted amounts of fixed and floating-rate debt and manage interest rate risk. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for our fixed-rate payments. These interest rate swap agreements are used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt.
25
Table of Contents
On March 27, 2020 , we entered into five forward starting swaps totaling $ 400 million. We designated the forward starting swaps as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk associated with interest payments on a forecasted issuance of fixed rate long-term debt, initially expected to occur within the next five years . The swaps are effective on August 1, 2023 and expire on August 1, 2033 and were issued at a fixed rate of approximately 0.8675 %. In March 2021, in conjunction with the issuance of $ 700 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.25 % Senior Notes due 2033 , we discontinued hedge accounting for these five forward starting swaps. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) related to these discontinued cash flow hedging relationships will be reclassified to interest expense over a ten-year term. Simultaneously, we re-designated these swaps in new cash flow hedging relationships of interest rate risk associated with interest payments on another forecasted issuance of long-term debt. We are hedging our exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions over a maximum period of 46 months (excluding forecasted transactions related to the payment of variable interest on existing financial instruments).
In addition to the forward swaps discussed above, we also have two interest rate swaps that were entered into in May 2019 with aggregate notional amounts of $ 50.0 million. These interest rate swaps are designated as hedges against our exposure to changes in interest payment cash flow fluctuations in the variable interest rates on the OP Term Loan .
Foreign Currency Forward Contracts and Debt Designated as Net Investment Hedges
British pound (“GBP”) denominated borrowings under the Sterling term loan and the 2017 Revolving Credit Facility, were previously used to hedge a portion of our investments in the U.K. against fluctuations in GBP against the USD. The GBP denominated borrowings under both debt instruments were deemed an effective hedge from issuance in May 2017 until the settlement of the Sterling term loan and the repayment of the GBP denominated borrowings under the 2017 Revolving Credit Facility in March 2021. Gains and losses associated with these nonderivative net investment hedges were recorded in foreign currency translation within other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”).
Concurrent with the settlement of the GBP denominated debt, we entered into four foreign currency forwards with notional amounts totaling £ 174.0 million, that mature on March 8, 2024 , to hedge a portion of our net investments in the U.K., effectively replacing the terminated net investment hedge. The gains and losses associated with these foreign currency forwards are also recorded in foreign currency translation within OCI. Amounts associated with these net investment hedges would be reclassified out of AOCI into earnings when our hedged net investment in the U.K. is either sold or substantially liquidated.

Fair value estimates are subjective in nature and are dependent on a number of important assumptions, including estimates of future cash flows, risks, discount rates and relevant comparable market information associated with each financial instrument (see Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020). The use of different market assumptions and estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the reported estimated fair value amounts.
The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments.
● Mortgage notes receivable: The fair value of the mortgage notes receivables are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates being offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings (Level 3).
● Other investments: Other investments are primarily comprised of notes receivable. The fair values of notes receivable are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates being offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings (Level 3).
● Revolving line of credit and OP Term loan: The carrying amount of these approximate fair value because the borrowings are interest rate adjusted. Differences between carrying value and the fair value in the table above are due to the inclusion of deferred financing costs in the carrying value.
27
Table of Contents
● Senior notes: The fair value of the senior unsecured notes payable was estimated based on (Level 1) publicly available trading prices.
● Subordinated debt: The fair value of our borrowings under these agreements are estimated using a present value technique based on inputs from trading activity provided by a third-party (Level 2).
● HUD mortgages: The fair value of our borrowings under HUD debt agreements are estimated using an expected present value technique based on quotes obtained by HUD debt brokers (Level 2).
NOTE 18 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
Shareholder Litigation
The Company and certain of its officers, C. Taylor Pickett, Robert O. Stephenson, and Daniel J. Booth , are defendants in a purported securities class action lawsuit pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Securities Class Action”). Brought by lead plaintiff Royce Setzer and additional plaintiff Earl Holtzman, the Securities Class Action purports to assert claims for violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, as well as Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and seeks an unspecified amount of monetary damages, interest, fees and expenses of attorneys and experts, and other relief. The Securities Class Action alleges that the defendants violated the Exchange Act by making materially false and/or misleading statements, and by failing to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, including the financial and operating results of one of the Company’s operators, the ability of such operator to make timely rent payments, and the impairment of certain of the Company’s leases and the uncollectibility of certain receivables. The initial complaint was dismissed with prejudice by the U.S. District Court, but the dismissal was overturned by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in 2020. Thereafter, the plaintiffs filed a Second Consolidated Amended Complaint in August 2020. In November 2020, the Company and the officers named in the Securities Class Action filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Consolidated Amended Complaint. On September 28, 2021, the Court issued an order denying the motion to dismiss insofar as it requested dismissal of the entire action on grounds of loss causation, and granting it insofar as it sought dismissal of any claims arising out of defendants’ statements in February 2017. Because the dismissed claims were the basis for defendants’ efforts to begin the alleged class period in February 2017, the decision means that the alleged class period runs from May 3, 2017 to October 31, 2017.
Certain derivative actions have also been brought against the officers named in the Securities Class Action, and certain current and former directors of the Company, alleging claims relating to the matters at issue in the Securities Class Action. These derivative actions are currently stayed pending certain developments in the Securities Class Action.
In 2018, Stourbridge Investments LLC, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and state-law claims including breach of fiduciary duty. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the named defendants are responsible for the Company’s failure to disclose the financial condition of Orianna Health Systems, the alleged non-disclosures that are also the subject of the Securities Class Action described above. The plaintiff did not make a demand on the Company to bring the action prior to filing it, but rather alleges that demand would have been futile. The case has been stayed pending the entry of judgment or a voluntary dismissal with prejudice in the Securities Class Action.

Table of Contents
In 2019, purported stockholder Phillip Swan by his counsel, and stockholders Tom Bradley and Sarah Smith by their counsel, filed derivative actions in the Baltimore City Circuit Court of Maryland, purportedly on behalf of the Company, asserting claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment against the named defendants. Those actions have been consolidated and stayed in the Maryland court pending completion of fact discovery in the Securities Class Action. Prior to filing suit, each of these stockholders had made demands on the Board of Directors in 2018 that the Company bring such lawsuits. After an investigation and due consideration, and in the exercise of its business judgment, the Board of Directors determined that it is not in the best interests of the Company to commence litigation against any current or former officers or directors based on the matters raised in the demands.
In addition, in late 2020, Robert Wojcik, a purported shareholder of the Company, filed a derivative action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, purportedly on behalf of the Company, asserting violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act, as well as claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. Wojcik also did not make a demand on the Company prior to filing suit. The case has been stayed pending the entry of judgment or a voluntary dismissal with prejudice in the Securities Class Action.
The Company believes that the claims asserted against it in these lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them.
Other
Gulf Coast Subordinated Debt
In August 2021, we filed suit in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County against the holders of certain Subordinated Debt associated with our Gulf Coast master lease agreement, following an assertion by the holders that our prior exercise of offset rights in connection with Gulf Coast’s non-payment of rent had resulted in defaults under the terms of the Subordinated Debt. The suit seeks a declaratory judgment to, among other items, declare that the aggregate amount of unpaid rent due from Gulf Coast under the master lease agreement exceeds all amounts which otherwise would be due and owing by Omega under the Subordinated Debt, and that all principal and interest due and owing under the Subordinated Debt are to be offset in full as of December 31, 2021. In October 2021, the defendants in the case filed a motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction. While Omega believes it is entitled to the enforcement of the offset rights sought in the action, the outcome of litigation is unpredictable, and Omega cannot predict the outcome of the declaratory judgment action. See Note 4 – Contractual Receivables and Other Receivables and Lease Inducements – Gulf Coast Health Care, LLC.
Lakeway Realty, L.L.C.
In September 2016, MedEquities received a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) from the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”), which indicates that it is conducting an investigation regarding alleged violations of the False Claims Act, Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute in connection with claims that may have been submitted to Medicare and other federal payors for services rendered to patients at Lakeway Hospital or by providers with financial relationships with Lakeway Hospital. As a result of the acquisition of MedEquities, the Company owns a 51 % interest in an unconsolidated partnership that owns Lakeway Hospital (the “Lakeway Realty, L.L.C.”). The CID requested certain documents and information related to the acquisition and ownership of Lakeway Hospital through Lakeway Realty, L.L.C. The Company has learned that the DOJ is investigating MedEquities’ conduct in connection with its investigation of financial relationships related to Lakeway Hospital, including allegations by the DOJ that these relationships violate and continue to violate the Anti-Kickback Statute and, as a result, related claims submitted to federal payors violated and continue to violate the False Claims Act. The Company is cooperating fully with the DOJ in connection with the CID and has produced all of the information that has been requested to date.

On September 29, 2020, the Department of Justice announced it had reached a settlement of a False Claims Act case with Lakeway Regional Medical Center wherein Lakeway Regional Medical Center agreed to pay $ 1.1 million for inducing certain physicians to refer patients by offering a low risk and high return investment in the form of a joint venture to purchase and then lease back the hospital to Lakeway Regional Medical Center. A MedEquities subsidiary was a party to this transaction but was not included in settlement discussions. The documents relating to the settlement are not publicly available.
The Company believes that the acquisition, ownership and leasing of Lakeway Hospital through the Lakeway Partnership was and is in compliance with all applicable laws. However, due to the uncertainties surrounding this matter and its ultimate outcome, we are unable to determine whether it is probable that any loss has been incurred.
In addition, we are subject to various other legal proceedings, claims and other actions arising out of the normal course of business. While any legal proceeding or claim has an element of uncertainty, management believes that the outcome of each lawsuit, claim or legal proceeding that is pending or threatened, or all of them combined, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Indemnification Agreements
In connection with certain facility transitions, we have agreed to indemnify certain operators in certain events. As of September 30, 2021, our maximum funding commitment under these indemnification agreements was approximately $ 8.5 million. Claims under these indemnification agreements may be made within 18 months to 72 months of the transition date. These indemnification agreements were provided to certain operators in connection with facility transitions and generally would be applicable in the event that the prior operators do not perform under their transition agreements.
Commitments
We have committed to fund the construction of new leased and mortgaged facilities, capital improvements and other commitments. We expect the funding of these commitments to be completed over the next several years. Our remaining commitments at September 30, 2021, are outlined in the table below (in thousands):

NOTE 21 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Gulf Coast
On October 14, 2021, Gulf Coast commenced voluntary cases under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). Gulf Coast operates 24 facilities subject to a master lease with Omega and represents approximately 2.6 % of Omega’s total revenues (excluding the impact of write-offs in 2021) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. As described in Gulf Coast’s filings with the Bankruptcy Court, we have entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”) that is expected to form the basis for Gulf Coast’s restructuring and liquidation. The Support Agreement establishes a timeline (subject to Gulf Coast’s assumption of the Support Agreement with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court) for the implementation of Gulf Coast’s planned restructuring and liquidation, including the potential transition of management of the operations of the facilities to a third-party operator. In order to provide liquidity to Gulf Coast during its chapter 11 cases, we have committed to provide up to $ 25 million of senior secured debtor-in-possession (“DIP”) financing, a portion of which funding is tied to certain milestones, including the transition of the management of the operations of the facilities. The DIP financing is guaranteed by all debtors and is secured by liens on substantially all of their assets, including post-petition accounts receivable, subject in certain cases to other priorities. The Bankruptcy Court has approved on an interim basis the debtors’ borrowing of up to $ 15.75 million of DIP financing. The Bankruptcy Court has scheduled a hearing to consider approval of all borrowings available under the DIP facility on a final basis on November 12, 2021. See Note 4 – Contractual Receivables and Other Receivables and Lease Inducements, for additional information on the financial statement impact of Gulf Coast’s nonpayment of rent during the third quarter of 2021 and the Company’s rights with respect to certain offsetting amounts.
Guardian
In October 2021, Guardian failed to make contractual rent and interest payments under its lease agreement for 26 operating facilities and on its $ 112.5 million mortgage loan agreement, bearing interest at 10.81 %, for nine facilities, due to on-going liquidity issues. We have had discussions with Guardian regarding restructuring certain lease and mortgage loan terms but have yet to reach an agreement. As of September 30, 2021, we had $ 7.4 million of letters of credit from Guardian as collateral which may be applied against our uncollected rent and interest receivables. As discussed in Note 7 – Allowance for Credit Losses, during the third quarter of 2021, we reduced the risk rating on the mortgage loan from a 4 to a 5. Guardian represents approximately 3.2 % and 3.5 % of our total revenues (excluding the impact of straight-line write-offs) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively.
