PART I

ITEM 1 -- BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY

Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the
state of Maryland on March 31, 1992. It is a self-administered real estate
investment trust ("REIT") which invests in income-producing healthcare
facilities, principally long-term care facilities located in the United States.
The Company anticipates providing lease or mortgage financing for healthcare
facilities to qualified operators and acquiring additional healthcare facility
types, including assisted living and acute care facilities. Financing for such
future investments may be provided by borrowings under the Company's revolving
line of credit, private placements or public offerings of debt or equity, the
assumption of secured indebtedness, or a combination of these methods. The
Company also may finance acquisitions through the exchange of properties or the
issuance of shares of its capital stock, if such transactions otherwise satisfy
the Company's investment criteria.

During 1995, the Company became a primary sponsor of Principal Healthcare
Finance Limited ("Principal"), an Isle of Jersey (United Kingdom) company
established to provide sale/leaseback and mortgage financing to the
private-sector healthcare industry in the United Kingdom.

In November 1997, the Company formed Omega Worldwide, Inc. ("Worldwide"), a
company which provides asset management services and management advisory
services to firms providing financing to providers of healthcare services,
particularly healthcare services to the elderly, principally in Europe and the
Pacific Rim. On April 2, 1998 the Company contributed substantially all of its
Principal assets to Worldwide in exchange for approximately 8.5 million shares
of Worldwide common stock and 260,000 shares of Series B preferred stock. Of the
8,500,000 shares of Worldwide received by the Company, approximately 5,200,000
were distributed on April 2, 1998 to the shareholders of the Company on the
basis of one Worldwide share for every 3.77 common shares of the Company held by
shareholders of the Company on the record date of February 1, 1998. Of the
remaining 3,300,000 shares of Worldwide received by the Company, 2,300,000
shares were sold by the Company on April 3, 1998 for net proceeds of
approximately $16,250,000 in a Secondary offering pursuant to a registration
statement of Worldwide. The market value of the distribution to shareholders
approximated $39 million or $1.99 per share. A non-recurring gain of $30.2
million was recorded on the distribution and secondary offerings of Worldwide
common shares during 1998.

Assets of Principal contributed included (a) 3,337,500 Class A voting
ordinary shares of Principal and warrants to purchase 10 million ordinary shares
of Principal expiring June 30, 2001 at an exercise price of L1.50 (approximately
$2.40) per share and 556,250 ordinary shares of Principal expiring December 31,
2000 at an exercise price of L1.00 (approximately $1.60) per share; (b) the
Company's right to payment of L15 million (approximately $24 million) from the
Sterling denominated subordinated loan; (c) the Company's interest in a ten-year
British pound currency swap contract under which Worldwide will have the right
to exchange L20,000,000 for $31,740,000 on October 15, 2007; (d) and the
Advisory Services Agreement between the Company and Principal.

As of December 31, 1998, the Company holds a $6,226,000 investment in
Worldwide represented by 1,163,000 shares of common stock and 260,000 shares of
Preferred stock. It also holds a $1,629,000 investment in Principal represented
by 990,000 ordinary shares of Principal.

The Company and Worldwide have entered into an Opportunity Agreement to
provide each other with rights to participate in certain transactions and make
certain investments. The Opportunity Agreement provides, subject to certain
terms, that, regardless of whether the following kinds of investments (each a
"REIT Opportunity") first come to the attention of the Company or Worldwide, the
Company will have the right to: make any investment within the United States (a)
in real estate, real estate mortgages, real estate derivatives or entities that
invest exclusively in or have a substantial portion of their assets in any of
the foregoing, so long as the Company's REIT status would not be jeopardized by
the investment; and (b) that, if made by a REIT, would not result in the
termination of the REIT's status as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the
Internal Revenue Code ("Code"). However, Worldwide will have the right,
regardless of whether the following kinds of investments (each a "Worldwide
Opportunity") first come to the attention of the Company or Worldwide, to: (a)
provide advisory services and/or management services to any healthcare
1

investors, wherever located; (b) acquire or make debt and/or equity investments
(through a joint venture or otherwise) in any healthcare investor or in
healthcare real estate-related assets outside the United States; (c) make
investments in any entity conducting healthcare operations; and (d) make any
other real estate, finance or other investments not customarily undertaken by a
qualified REIT. If Worldwide declines to pursue a Worldwide Opportunity, it must
offer that opportunity to the Company, and if the Company declines to pursue a
REIT Opportunity, it must offer that opportunity to Worldwide. Each of the
Company and Worldwide may participate, in its discretion, in any REIT
Opportunity or Worldwide Opportunity that the other requests be pursued jointly.
The terms upon which each of the Company and Worldwide elect to participate in
such an opportunity will be negotiated in good faith and must be mutually
acceptable to the respective boards of directors of the Company and Worldwide,
with the affirmative votes of the independent directors of the board of
directors of the Company and Worldwide. Each of the Company and Worldwide has
agreed to notify the other of and make available to the other investment
opportunities developed by such party or of which such party becomes aware but
is unable or unwilling to pursue. The Opportunity Agreement has a term of ten
years and automatically renews for successive five-year terms unless terminated.
In that connection, Worldwide has offered to the Company the opportunity to
acquire up to 9.9% of the common shares of Principal Healthcare Finance Trust
("the Trust"), an Australian Unit Trust, which owns 35 nursing home facilities
and 475 assisted living units in New South Wales.

Effective September 30, 1994, the Company acquired all the outstanding
common stock of Health Equity Properties Incorporated ("HEP"), a healthcare real
estate investment trust. The total purchase consideration for HEP approximated
$180 million, comprising common stock of $143 million represented by 5,826,000
shares, long-term debt assumed of $26 million, and other obligations,
professional fees and costs incurred in the transaction.

As of December 31, 1998, the Company's portfolio of domestic investments
consisted of 242 long-term care facilities, 3 medical office buildings and 2
rehabilitation hospitals. The Company owns and leases 141 long-term facilities,
3 medical office buildings and 2 rehabilitation hospitals, and provides
mortgages, including participating and convertible participating mortgages on
101 long-term healthcare facilities. The facilities are located in 29 states and
operated by 30 unaffiliated operators. The Company's gross real estate
investments at December 31, 1998 totaled $984 million.

During 1998, new investments approximated $283 million as a result of
entering into sale/leaseback transactions and making mortgage loans and other
investments. Additionally, the Company initiated a plan during 1998 to dispose
of certain properties judged to have limited incremental potential and to
re-deploy the proceeds from sale. Following a review of the portfolio, assets
identified for sale had a cost of $95 million, a net carrying value of $83
million, and annualized revenues approximated $11.4 million. During the fourth
quarter, the Company completed sales of two groups of assets, yielding sales
proceeds of $42,036,000. Gains realized from assets sold approximated $2.8
million. After consideration of the results of sales and other developments
identified as part of the continuing evaluation of the assets held for sale, the
Company recorded a provision for impairment of $6.8 million to adjust the
carrying value of those assets judged to be impaired to their estimated
realizable value. The Company is committed to sell the remaining facilities as
soon as practicable.

At January 31, 1999 the Company employed 29 full-time employees. The
executive offices of the Company are located at 900 Victors Way, Suite 350, Ann
Arbor, Michigan, 48108. Its telephone number is (734) 887-0200.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES

The investment objectives of the Company are to pay regular cash dividends
to shareholders; to provide the opportunity for increased dividends from annual
increases in rental and interest income from revenue participations and from
portfolio growth; to preserve and protect shareholders' capital; and to provide
the opportunity to realize capital growth.

INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND POLICIES

The Company maintains a diversified portfolio of income-producing
healthcare facilities or mortgages thereon, with a primary focus on long-term
care facilities located in the United States. In making investments, the Company
generally seeks and intends to focus on established, creditworthy, middle-market
healthcare operators which meet the Company's standards for quality and
experience of management. Although the Company has emphasized long-term care
investments, it intends to diversify prudently into other types of healthcare
facilities or other properties. The Company actively seeks to diversify its
investments in terms of geographic locations, operators and facility types.

In evaluating potential investments, the Company considers such factors as:
(i) the quality and experience of management and the credit worthiness of the
operator of the facility; (ii) the facility's historical, current and forecasted
cash flow and its adequacy to meet operational needs, capital expenditures and
lease or debt service obligations, while providing a competitive return on
investment to the Company; (iii) the construction quality, condition and design
of the facility; (iv) the geographic area and type of facility; (v) the tax,
growth, regulatory and reimbursement environment of the community in which the
facility is located; (vi) the occupancy and demand for similar healthcare
facilities in the same or nearby communities; and (vii) the payor mix of
private, Medicare and Medicaid patients.

A fundamental investment strategy of the Company is to obtain contractual
rent escalations under long-term, non-cancelable, "triple-net" leases and
revenue participation through participating mortgage loans, and to obtain
substantial liquidity deposits. Additional security is typically provided by
covenants regarding minimum working capital and net worth, liens on accounts
receivable and other operating assets, and various provisions for cross-default,
cross-collateralization and corporate/personal guarantees, when appropriate.

The Company prefers to invest in equity ownership of properties. Due to
regulatory, tax or other considerations, the Company sometimes pursues
alternative investment structures, including convertible participating and
participating mortgages, that achieve returns comparable to equity investments.
The following summarizes the four primary structures currently used by the
Company:

Purchase/Leaseback. The Company's owned properties are generally
leased under provisions of leases for terms ranging from 8 to 17 years,
plus renewal options. The leases originated by the Company generally
provide for minimum annual rentals which are subject to annual formula
increases (i.e., based upon such factors as increases in the Consumer Price
Index ("CPI") or increases in the revenues of the underlying properties),
with certain fixed minimum and maximum levels. Generally, the operator
holds an option to repurchase at set dates at prices based on specified
formulas. The average annualized yield from leases was 11.02% at January 1,
1999.

Convertible Participating Mortgage. Convertible Participating
Mortgages are secured by first mortgage liens on the underlying real estate
and personal property of the mortgagor. Interest rates are usually subject
to annual increases based upon increases in the CPI or increases in
revenues of the underlying long-term care facilities, with certain maximum
limits. Convertible Participating Mortgages afford the Company an option to
convert its mortgage into direct ownership of the property, generally at a
point six to nine years from inception; they are then subject to a
leaseback to the operator for the balance of the original agreed term and
for the original agreed participations in revenues or CPI adjustments. This
allows the Company to capture a portion of the potential appreciation in
value of the real estate. The operator has the right to buy out the
Company's option at prices based on specified formulas. The average
annualized yield on these mortgages was approximately 12.71% at January 1,
1999.

Participating Mortgage. Participating Mortgages of the Company are
secured by first mortgage liens on the underlying real estate and personal
property of the mortgagor. Interest rates are usually subject to annual
increases based upon increases in the CPI or increases in revenues of the
underlying long-term care facilities, with certain maximum limits. The
average annualized yield on these investments was approximately 12.25% at
January 1, 1999.

3

Fixed-Rate Mortgage. These Mortgages of the Company, with a fixed
interest rate for the mortgage term, are also secured by first mortgage
liens on the underlying real estate and personal property of the mortgagor.
The average annualized yield on these investments was 11.46% at January 1,
1999.

The following table summarizes as of December 31, 1998 the years of
expiration of the Company's revenues based on the contractual maturity dates of
the leases and mortgages:

The table set forth in Item 2 -- Properties, herein, contains information
regarding the Company's real estate properties, their locations, and the types
of investment structures as of December 31, 1998.

BORROWING POLICIES

The Company may incur additional indebtedness and anticipates attaining,
and then expects to generally maintain, a long-term debt-to-capitalization ratio
of approximately 40%. The Company intends to review periodically its policy with
respect to its debt-to-equity ratio and to adapt such policy as its management
deems prudent in light of prevailing market conditions. The Company's strategy
generally has been to match the maturity of its indebtedness with the maturity
of its assets, and to employ long-term, fixed-rate debt to the extent
practicable.

The Company will use the proceeds of any additional indebtedness to provide
permanent financing for investments in additional healthcare facilities. The
Company may obtain either secured or unsecured indebtedness, which may be
convertible into capital stock or accompanied by warrants to purchase capital
stock. Where debt financing is present on terms deemed favorable, the Company
generally may invest in properties subject to existing loans, secured by
mortgages, deeds of trust or similar liens on properties.

The Company has an unsecured acquisition line of credit which permits
borrowings of up to $200,000,000. This credit facility provides temporary funds
for new investments in healthcare facilities. The Company expects periodically
to replace funds drawn on the acquisition line through long-term, fixed-rate
borrowings, the issuance of equity linked borrowings, or the issuance of
additional shares of capital stock. Item 7 -- Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains additional
information concerning liquidity and capital resources.

COMPETITION

The Company competes for additional healthcare facility investments with
other healthcare investors, including other real estate investment trusts. The
operators of the facilities compete with other regional or local nursing care
facilities for the support of the medical community, including physicians and
acute care

4

hospitals, as well as the general public. Some significant competitive factors
for the placing of patients in skilled and intermediate care nursing facilities
include quality of care, reputation, physical appearance of the facilities,
services offered, family preferences, physician services and price.

GOVERNMENT HEALTHCARE REGULATION AND REIMBURSEMENTS

The healthcare industry is highly regulated by federal, state and local
law, and is directly affected by state and local licensure, fines and loss of
certification to participate in the Medicare and Medicaid programs, as well as
potential criminal penalties. The failure of any lessee or borrower to comply
with such laws, requirements and regulations could adversely affect its ability
to operate its facilities and could affect such lessees' or borrowers' ability
to make debt or lease payments to the Company.

A significant portion of the revenue of the Company's lessees and borrowers
is derived from governmentally-funded reimbursement programs, such as Medicare
and Medicaid. These programs are highly regulated and subject to frequent and
substantial changes resulting from legislation, adoption of rules and
regulations, and administrative and judicial interpretations of existing law.

The levels of revenues and profitability of the Company's lessees and
mortgagors will continue to be affected by the ongoing efforts of third-party
payors to contain or reduce the costs of healthcare. Recent legislation changed
the Medicare payment methodology for skilled nursing facilities effective for
cost reporting years commencing after July 1, 1998. The cost-based system was
replaced by a federal per diem rate that is being phased in over four years. The
new per diem rate will be the sole payment for both direct nursing care ("Part A
services") and ancillary services that were previously billed separately from
the cost-based reimbursement system ("Part B services"). Capital costs are also
included in the per diem rate. Many states have also converted to a system based
on prospectively determined fixed rates.

Until 1997, state Medicaid programs were required to reimburse nursing
facilities based on rates that were reasonable and adequate to meet the costs
that must be incurred by efficiently and economically operated facilities in
order to provide services in conformity with federal and state standards and to
assure reasonable access to patients. This law restricted the ability of the
states to reduce Medicaid payments. Congress repealed this requirement in 1997.
Under the new law, states need only publish the methodology used to develop the
proposed rates, along with a justification for the methodology, and allow public
comment. Proposals have also been made to limit Medicaid reimbursement for
healthcare services in many of the states in which the Company's facilities are
located.

Any changes in reimbursement policies which reduce reimbursement levels
could adversely affect revenues of the Company's lessees and borrowers and
thereby adversely affect those lessees' and borrowers' abilities to make their
monthly lease or debt payments to the Company, and, indirectly, the Company's
financial condition.

The possibility that the healthcare facilities will not generate income
sufficient to meet operating expenses or will yield returns lower than those
available through investments in comparable real estate or other investments are
additional risks of investing in healthcare related real estate. Income from
properties and yields from investments in such properties may be affected by
many factors, including changes in governmental regulation (such as zoning
laws), general or local economic conditions (such as fluctuations in interest
rates and employment conditions), the available local supply and demand for
improved real estate, a reduction in rental income as the result of an inability
to maintain occupancy levels, natural disasters (such as earthquakes and floods)
or similar factors.

There can be no assurance that the Medicaid reimbursement programs in each
of the states where the lessees' and mortgagors' facilities are located will
reimburse rent or interest costs of the lessees and mortgagors at increased
levels recognizing the initial sales to or borrowings from the Company. Failure
by these state Medicaid programs to provide reimbursement at current or
increased levels could have an adverse effect upon the cash flow of the
facilities and, hence, on the ability of the Company's lessees and mortgagors to
meet their respective payment obligations to the Company. Additionally, Medicare
regulations provide that effective December 1, 1997, when a facility changes
ownership (by sale or under certain lease transactions),

5

reimbursement for depreciation and interest will be based on the cost to the
owner of record as of August 5, 1997, less depreciation allowed. Previously, the
buyer would use its cost of purchase up to the original owner's historical cost
before depreciation. Such changes could adversely affect the resale value of the
Company's healthcare facilities.

Real estate investments are relatively illiquid and, therefore, tend to
limit the ability of the Company to vary its portfolio promptly in response to
changes in economic or other conditions. All of the Company's properties are
"special purpose" properties that could not be readily converted to general
residential, retail or office use. Healthcare facilities that participate in
Medicare or Medicaid must meet extensive program requirements, including
physical plant and operational requirements, which are revised from time to
time. Such requirements may include a duty to admit Medicare and Medicaid
patients, limiting the ability of the facility to increase its private pay
census beyond certain limits. Medicare and Medicaid facilities are regularly
inspected to determine compliance and may be excluded from the programs -- in
some cases without a prior hearing -- for failure to meet program requirements.
Transfers of operations of nursing homes and other healthcare-related facilities
are subject to regulatory approvals not required for transfers of other types of
commercial operations and other types of real estate. Thus, if the operation of
any of the Company's properties becomes unprofitable due to competition, age of
improvements or other factors such that the lessee or borrower becomes unable to
meet its obligations on the lease or mortgage loan, the liquidation value of the
property may be substantially less, particularly relative to the amount owing on
any related mortgage loan, than would be the case if the property were readily
adaptable to other uses. The receipt of liquidation proceeds or the replacement
of an operator that has defaulted on its lease or loan could be delayed by the
approval process of any federal, state or local agency necessary for the
transfer of the property or the replacement of the operator licensed to manage
the facility. In addition, certain significant expenditures associated with real
estate investment (such as real estate taxes and maintenance costs) are
generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the
investment. Should such events occur, the Company's income and cash flows from
operations would be adversely affected.

Other changes in the healthcare industry include continuing trends toward
shorter lengths of hospital stay, increased use of outpatient services,
increased federal, state and third party oversight of healthcare company
operations and business practices and increased demand for capitated healthcare
services (delivery of services at a fixed price per capita basis to a defined
group of covered parties). The entrance of insurance companies into managed care
programs is also accelerating the introduction of managed care in new
localities, and states and insurance companies continue to negotiate actively
the amounts they will pay for services. Moreover, the percentage of healthcare
services that are reimbursed under Medicare and Medicaid programs continues to
increase as the population ages and as states expand their Medicaid programs.
Continued eligibility to participate in these programs is crucial to a
provider's financial strength. Finally, healthcare regulation through
Certificates of Need ("CON") has tended to limit construction of new long-term
care facilities in many states. Several states in which the Company has
investments have repealed CON legislation, including California and Texas. As a
result of the foregoing, the revenues and margins of the operators of the
Company's facilities may decrease, resulting in a reduction of the Company's
rent/interest coverage from investments.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

At all times, the Company intends to make and manage its investments
(including the sale or disposition of property or other investments) and to
operate in such a manner as to be consistent with the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") (or regulations
thereunder) to qualify as a REIT, unless, because of changes in circumstances or
changes in the Code (or regulations thereunder), the Board of Directors
determines that it is no longer in the best interests of the Company to qualify
as a REIT. As such, it generally will not pay federal income taxes on the
portion of its income which is distributed to shareholders.

ITEM 7 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

"Safe Harbor" Statement Under the United States Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995

Statements contained in this document that are not based on historical fact
are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include statements
regarding the Company's future development activities, the future condition and
expansion of the Company's markets, the Company's ability to meet its liquidity
requirements and the Company's growth strategies, as well as other statements
which may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may,"
"will," "expect," "estimate," "anticipate," or similar terms, variations of
those terms or the negative of those terms. Statements that are not historical
facts contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis are forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results
to differ from projected results. Some of the factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially include: The financial strength of the operators of
the Company's facilities as it affects their

12

continuing ability to meet their obligations to the Company under the terms of
the Company's agreements with such operators; changes in the reimbursement
levels under the Medicare and Medicaid programs; operators' continued
eligibility to participate in the Medicare and Medicaid programs; changes in
reimbursement by other third party payors; occupancy levels at the Company's
facilities; the availability and cost of capital; the strength and financial
resources of the Company's competitors; the Company's ability to make additional
real estate investments at attractive yields; and changes in tax laws and
regulations affecting real estate investment trusts.

Following is a discussion of the consolidated results of operations,
financial position and liquidity and capital resources of the Company, which
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
accompanying notes.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Year Ended December 31, 1998 compared to Year Ended December 31, 1997

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1998 totaled $108,738,000,
increasing $17.9 million over 1997 revenues. The 1998 revenue growth stems
primarily from additional investments during 1997 and 1998. A partial year of
revenues from 1998 investments provided revenue increases of approximately $9.5
million, while a full year of revenues from 1997 investments added $11.3 million
to revenues. Additionally, approximately $2.3 million of the revenue growth
stems from participating incremental revenues which became effective during
1998.

Real estate investments of $983.8 million as of December 31, 1998 will
provide 1999 annualized revenues of $112.3 million, which reflects no additional
revenues for assets held for sale. Revenues will continue at this level until
additional 1999 investments are made and additional escalation provisions
commence in 1999. Annualized revenues for 1999, excluding assets held for sale,
represent a $19.2 million increase over the 1998 annualized revenues of $93.1
million based on real estate investments of $779.4 million as of January 1,
1998.

Expenses for the year ended December 31, 1998 totaled $58,767,000,
increasing approximately $12.8 million over expenses of $45.9 million for 1997.
The 1998 provision for depreciation and amortization of real estate totaled
$21,542,000, increasing $4.6 million over 1997. This increase stems from a full
year provision for 1997 investments, plus a partial year provision for 1998
investments.

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 1998 was approximately
$31,860,000, compared with $24.4 million for 1997. The increase in 1998 is
primarily due to higher average outstanding borrowings during the 1998 periods,
offset partially by interest rate savings from conversions of subordinated
debentures and reduced spreads on line of credit borrowings.

General and administrative expenses for 1998 totaled $5,365,000 million or
approximately 4.9% of revenues as compared to 5.1% for 1997. The 1998 percentage
decrease stems primarily from economies of scale resulting from additional
investments made in 1998.

No provision for Federal income taxes has been made since the Company
intends to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust under the
provisions of Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to Federal income taxes on
amounts distributed to shareholders, provided it distributes at least 95% of its
real estate investment trust taxable income and meets certain other conditions.

Funds from operations (FFO) for the year ended December 31, 1998 totaled
$65,050,000, an increase of $6.3 million over the $58.8 million for 1997. FFO is
net earnings available to common shareholders, excluding any gains or losses
from debt restructuring and the effects of asset dispositions, plus depreciation
and amortization associated with real estate investments and charges to earnings
for non-cash common stock based compensation. The 1998 growth in cash flow is
primarily due to net additions to investments in 1998 and 1997.

13

Year Ended December 31, 1997 compared to Year Ended December 31, 1996

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1997 totaled $90,820,000,
increasing $17.7 million over 1996 revenues. The 1997 revenue growth stems
primarily from additional investments during 1996 and 1997. A partial year of
revenues from 1997 investments provided revenue increases of approximately $9.8
million, while a full year of revenues from 1996 investments added $5.1 million
to revenues during 1997. Additionally, approximately $1.9 million of the revenue
growth stems from participating incremental revenues, which became effective
during 1997.

Real estate investments of $779.4 million as of December 31, 1997 will
provide 1998 annualized revenues of $93.1 million. Revenues will continue at
this level until additional 1998 investments are made and additional escalation
provisions commence in 1998. Annualized revenues for 1998 represent a $20.1
million increase over the 1997 annualized revenues of $73.0 million based on
real estate investments of $593.7 million as of January 1, 1997.

Expenses for the year ended December 31, 1997 totaled $45,969,000,
increasing approximately $7.4 million over expenses of $38.5 million for 1996.
The 1997 provision for depreciation and amortization of real estate totaled
$16,910,000, increasing $3.2 million over 1996. This increase stems from a full
year provision for 1996 investments, plus a partial year provision for 1997
investments.

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 1997 was approximately
$24,423,000, compared with $20.8 million for 1996. The increase in interest
expense is primarily due to an increase in average outstanding borrowings on the
acquisition line of credit, partially offset by lower rates.

General and administrative expenses for 1997 totaled $4.6 million or
approximately 5.1% of revenues as compared to 5.5% for 1996. The 1997 percentage
decrease stems primarily from economies of scale resulting from additional
investments made in 1997.

Funds from operations (FFO) for the year ended December 31, 1997 totaled
$58,815,000, an increase of $9.8 million over the $49.0 million for 1996. FFO is
net earnings available to common shareholders, excluding any gains or losses
from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation and
amortization associated with real estate investments and charges to earnings for
non-cash common stock based compensation. The 1997 growth in cash flow is
primarily due to the additional investments in 1997 and 1996 and the increase in
operating earnings before provisions for depreciation and amortization.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company continually seeks new investments in healthcare properties,
primarily long-term care facilities, with the objective of profitable growth and
further diversification of the investment portfolio. Permanent financing for
future investments is expected to be provided through a combination of private
and public offerings of debt and equity securities. Management believes the
Company's liquidity and various sources of available capital are adequate to
finance operations, fund future investments in additional facilities, and meet
debt service requirements.

At December 31, 1998, the Company has a strong financial position with
total assets of $1.03 billion, shareholders' equity of $505.8 million, and
long-term debt of $381.8 million, representing approximately 37% of total
capitalization. Long-term debt excludes funds borrowed under its acquisition
credit agreement. The Company anticipates maintaining a long-term
debt-to-capitalization ratio of approximately 40%. The Company has a $200
million revolving credit facility, of which $123 million was drawn at year-end.
In January 1999, additional credit line borrowings of $33 million were used
primarily for funding of investments. Proceeds from asset sales and anticipated
term-loan borrowings in the first quarter of 1999 are expected to reduce
borrowings on the credit facility by approximately $85 million.

In February 1997, the Company filed a Form S-4 shelf registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering common stock totaling
$100 million to be issued in connection with future property acquisitions.
Additionally, on January 14, 1999, the Company's Form S-3 registration statement

14

permitting the issuance of up to $300 million related to common stock,
unspecified debt, preferred stock and convertible securities was declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company has demonstrated a strong capacity for timely access capital
markets and has raised more than $1.2 billion in debt and equity capital since
it was organized in 1992. The Company raised more than $500 million in equity,
including $130 million from the initial public offering in 1992, $73 million
from a follow-on common stock offering in 1994, $165 million from the Health
Equity Properties acquisition in 1994 and three additional offerings, including
the offering of Series A and Series B preferred stock. Additionally, over $700
million of debt capital has been raised, some of which has been used to retire
secured borrowings with higher interest rates. In 1996, the Company completed a
placement of $95 million of 8.5% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2001,
and executed an agreement to increase its current bank line of credit facility
by $50 million and to extend the term of the revolving credit agreement to July
1999. In 1997, the Company issued $57.5 million of Series A Preferred Stock with
a yield of 9.25% and completed a $100 million 10-year senior note offering
priced to yield 6.99%. In September 1997, the Company completed the second
amended and restated loan agreement. The new agreement provides for total
permitted borrowings of up to $200 million, reduces interest rates on
borrowings, and extends the term of the agreement to September 2000. In April
1998, the Company issued $50 million of Series B Preferred Stock with a yield of
8.625%. In June 1998, the Company completed a $125 million 4-year senior note
offering priced to yield 7.04%.

The Company distributes a large portion of the cash available from
operations. Cash dividends paid totaled $2.68 per share for 1998, compared with
$2.58 per share for the year ended December 31, 1997. The dividend payout ratio,
that is the ratio of per share amounts for dividends paid to the diluted per
share amounts of funds from operations, was approximately 84% for 1998, compared
with 86% for 1997. The Company believes that cash provided from quarterly
operating activities at current levels will continue to be sufficient to fund
normal working capital requirements and pay 1999 dividends at a quarterly rate
of $0.70 per share as declared at the January 21, 1999 Board of Directors
meeting. In addition, the Board declared regular quarterly dividends of $.578
per share and $.539 per share to be paid February 15, 1999 to Series A and
Series B Cumulative Preferred shareholders of record on January 29, 1999,
respectively. Approximately 50% of incremental cash flow from operations is
expected to be retained annually through gradual reductions in the dividend
payout ratio, with such funds used to fund additional investments and provide
financial flexibility.

New investments generally are funded from temporary borrowings under the
Company's acquisition credit line agreement. Interest cost incurred by the
Company on borrowings under the acquisition credit line will vary depending upon
fluctuations in prime and/or LIBOR rates, and upon changes in the Company's
ratings by national agencies. Borrowings bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.00% or,
at the Company's option, at the prime rate. The Company expects to periodically
replace funds drawn on the acquisition credit line through fixed-rate long-term
borrowings, the placement of convertible debentures, or the issuance of
additional shares of common and/or preferred stock. Historically, the Company's
strategy has been to match the maturity of its indebtedness with the maturity of
its assets and to employ fixed-rate long-term debt to the extent practicable.

MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to various market risks, including the potential
loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates. The Company does not enter
into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative
purposes. The Company seeks to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in interest
rates by matching the term of new investments with new long-term fixed rate
borrowing to the extent possible.

The market value of the Company's long-term fixed rate borrowings and
mortgages are subject to interest rate risk. Generally, the market value of
fixed rate financial instruments will decrease as interest rates rise and
increase as interest rates fall. The estimated fair value of the Company's total
long-term borrowings at December 31, 1998 was $368 million. A 1% increase in
interest rates would result in a decrease in fair value of long-term borrowings
by approximately $10 million. The estimated fair value of the Company's total
mortgages portfolio at December 31, 1998 was $369 million. A 1% increase in
interest rates would result in a decrease in fair value of the mortgage
portfolio by approximately $14 million.

15

The Company is subject to risks associated with debt or preferred equity
financing, including the risk that existing indebtedness may not be refinanced
or that the terms of such refinancing may not be as favorable as the terms of
current indebtedness. If the Company was unable to refinance its indebtedness on
acceptable terms, it might be forced to dispose of properties on disadvantageous
terms, which might result in losses to the Company and might adversely affect
the cash available for distributions to shareholders. If interest rates or other
factors at the time of the refinancing result in higher interest rates upon
refinancing, the Company's interest expense would increase, which might affect
the Company's ability to make common stock distributions to its shareholders.

The majority of the Company's borrowings were completed pursuant to
indentures which limit the amount of indebtedness the Company may incur.
Accordingly, in the event that the Company is unable to raise additional equity
or borrow money because of these limitations, the Company's ability to acquire
additional properties may be limited. If the Company is unable to acquire
additional properties, its ability to increase the distributions with respect to
common shares, as it has done in the past, will be limited to management's
ability to increase funds from operations, and thereby cash available for
distributions, from the existing properties in the Company's portfolio.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

The Year 2000 compliance issue concerns the inability of certain systems
and devices to properly use or store dates beyond December 31, 1999. This could
result in system failures, malfunctions, or miscalculations that disrupt normal
operations. This issue affects most companies and organizations to large and
small degrees, at least to the extent that potential exposures must be
evaluated.

The Company is reviewing risks with regard to the ability of the Company's
own internal operations, the impact of outside vendors' ability to operate, and
the impact of tenants' ability to operate. The Company initially focused this
review on mission-critical operations, recognizing that other potential effects
are expected to be less material. The Company believes its own internal
operations, its technology infrastructure, information systems, and software
applications are likely to be compliant or will be compliant by mid-1999 based
upon certification statements by the applicable vendors. In those cases where
there are compliance issues, these are considered to be minor in nature, and
remedies are already identified. Expenditures for such remedies will not be
material.

With respect to the Company's material outside vendors, such as its banks,
payroll processor, and telecommunications providers, the Company's assessment
will cover the compliance efforts of significant vendors, the effects of
potential non-compliance, and remedies that may mitigate or obviate such effects
as to the Company's business and operations. The Company plans to complete its
assessment of compliance by important vendors by mid-1999.

With respect to the Company's tenants and properties, the Company's
assessment will cover the tenants' compliance efforts, the possibility of any
interface difficulties or electromechanical problems relating to compliance by
material vendors, the effects of potential non-compliance, and remedies that may
mitigate or obviate such effects. The Company plans to process information from
tenant surveys beginning in 1999 and complete its assessment by mid-1999.

Because the Company's evaluation of these issues has been conducted by its
own personnel or by selected inquiries of its vendors and tenants in connection
with their routine servicing operations, the Company believes that its
expenditures for assessing Year 2000 issues, though difficult to quantify, have
not been material. In addition, the Company is not aware of any issues that will
require material expenditures by the Company in the future.

Based upon current information, the Company believes that the risk posed by
foreseeable Year 2000 related problems with its internal systems (including both
information and non-information systems) is minimal. Year 2000 related problems
with the Company's software applications and internal operational programs are
unlikely to cause more than minor disruptions in the Company's operations. Year
2000 related problems at certain of its third-party service providers, such as
its banks, payroll processor, and telecommunications provider, is marginally
greater, though, based upon current information, the Company

16

does not believe any such problems would have a material effect on its
operations. For example, Year 2000 related problems at such third-party service
providers could delay the processing of financial transactions and the Company's
payroll and could disrupt the Company's internal and external communications.

The Company believes that the risk posed by Year 2000 related problems with
its tenants is marginally greater, though, based upon current information, the
Company does not believe any such problems would have a material effect on its
operations. Year 2000 related problems at certain governmental agencies and
third-party payers could delay the processing of tenant financial transactions,
though, based upon current information, the Company does not believe any such
problems would have a material long-term effect on its operations. Year 2000
related problems with the electromechanical systems at its properties are
unlikely to cause more than minor disruptions.

The Company intends to complete outstanding assessments, to implement
identified remedies, to continue to monitor Year 2000 issues, and will develop
contingency plans if, and to the extent, deemed necessary. However, based upon
current information and barring developments, the Company does not anticipate
developing any substantive contingency plans with respect to Year 2000 issues.
In addition, the Company has no plans to seek independent verification or review
of its assessments.

While the Company believes that it will be Year 2000 compliant by December
31, 1999, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
identifying and assessing all compliance issues, or that the Company's efforts
to remedy all Year 2000 compliance issues will be effective such that they will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or results of
operations.

The information above contains forward-looking statements, including,
without limitation, statements relating to the Company's plans, strategies,
objectives, expectations, intentions and adequate resources that are made
pursuant to "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements about the
Year 2000 should be read in conjunction with the Company's disclosures under the
heading: "Safe Harbor" Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain

assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1998 and 1997,

OMEGA HEALTHCARE INVESTORS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998

NOTE 1 -- ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("the Company"),
is a self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT). The Company
commenced operations in 1992 and currently has investments in 247
income-producing healthcare facilities, with a principal focus on diversified
investments in long-term care facilities located primarily in the United States.

CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries after elimination of all material intercompany
accounts and transactions.

REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS

Investments in real estate properties and mortgage notes are recorded at
cost and original mortgage amount, respectively. The cost of the properties
acquired is allocated between land and buildings based generally upon
independent appraisals. Depreciation for buildings is recorded on the
straight-line basis, using estimated useful lives ranging from 20 to 39 years.

NON-COMPETE AGREEMENTS AND GOODWILL

Non-compete agreements and the excess of the purchase price over the value
of tangible net assets acquired (i.e., goodwill) is amortized on a straight-line
basis over periods ranging from five to ten years. Accumulated amortization was
$6,935,000 and $5,277,000 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS

Provisions for impairment losses related to long-lived assets, including
certain intangible assets and goodwill, are recognized when expected future cash
flows are less than the carrying values of the assets. If indicators of
impairment are present, the Company evaluates the carrying value of the related
real estate investments in relationship to the future undiscounted cash flows of
the underlying operations. The Company adjusts the net book value of leased
properties, assets held for sale and other long-lived assets to fair value, if
the sum of the expected future cash flow or sales proceeds is less than book
value. Assets classified as held for sale are reported at the lower of their
carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated cost to sell. Residual cash
receipts and depreciation are excluded from operations after management has
committed to a plan to sell the asset.

CASH AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

Short-term investments consist of highly liquid investments with a maturity
date of three months or less when purchased. These investments are stated at
cost which approximates fair value.

INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY SECURITIES OR OTHER INVESTMENTS

Securities held as available-for-sale are stated at fair value with
unrealized gains and losses for the securities reported in accumulated other
comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to
be other-than-temporary on securities held as available-for-sale are included in
investment income. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific
identification method. Interest and dividends on securities available-for-sale
are included in investment income.

DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS

Deferred financing costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
terms of the related borrowings. Amortization of financing costs totaling
$1,042,000, $829,000 and $524,000 in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively, is
classified as interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Unamortized deferred financing costs applicable to debt which is converted to
common stock are charged to paid-in capital at the date of conversion.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Rental income and mortgage interest income is recognized as earned over the
terms of the related master leases and mortgage notes, respectively. Such income
includes periodic increases based on pre-determined formulas as defined in the
master leases and mortgage loan agreements. Certain mortgage agreements include
provisions for deferred interest which is not payable by the borrower until
maturity of the related note. The portion of deferred interest recognized as
earned approximates $600,000 for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1998.

FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES

As a qualified real estate investment trust, the Company will not be
subject to Federal income taxes on its income, and no provisions for Federal
income taxes have been made. The reported amounts of the Company's assets and
liabilities as of December 31, 1998 exceeds the tax basis of assets by
approximately $63 million.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the respective periods. Average shares
outstanding for basic earnings per share were 20,034 million for 1998, 19,085
million for 1997 and 17,196 million for 1996, respectively. The calculation of
diluted earnings per share amounts reflect the dilutive effect of stock options
of 5,999 shares, 52,394 shares and 44,240 shares for 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. The assumed conversion of debentures is anti-dilutive for all
periods presented.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company grants stock options to employees and directors with an
exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of the grant.
In accordance with the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees, compensation expense is not recognized for these stock
option grants.

ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 -- PROPERTIES

The Company's real estate properties, represented by 141 long-term care
facilities, 3 medical office buildings and 2 rehabilitation hospitals at
December 31, 1998, are leased under provisions of master leases with initial
terms ranging from 8 to 17 years, plus renewal options. Substantially all of the
master leases provide for minimum annual rentals which are subject to annual
increases based upon increases in the

At the Company's Board of Directors' Meeting on July 15, 1998, management
was authorized to initiate a plan to dispose of certain properties judged to
have limited incremental potential and to re-deploy the proceeds from sale.
Following a review of the portfolio, assets identified for sale had a cost of
$95 million, a net carrying value of $83 million, and annualized revenues of
approximately $11.4 million. During the fourth quarter, the Company completed
sales of two groups of assets, yielding sales proceeds of $42,036,000. Gains
realized in the dispositions approximated $2.8 million. After consideration of
the results of sales and other developments identified as part of the continuing
evaluation of the assets held for sale, the Company recorded

a provision for impairment of $6.8 million to adjust the carrying value of those
assets judged to be impaired to their estimated realizable value. The Company is
committed to sell the remaining facilities as soon as practicable.

NOTE 3 -- MORTGAGE NOTES RECEIVABLE

The following are the three primary mortgage structures currently used by
the Company:

Convertible Participating Mortgages are secured by first mortgage liens on
the underlying real estate and personal property of the mortgagor. Interest
rates are usually subject to annual increases based upon increases in the CPI or
increases in revenues of the underlying long-term care facilities, with certain
maximum limits. Convertible Participating Mortgages afford the Company an option
to convert its mortgage into direct ownership of the property, generally at a
point six to nine years from inception; they are then subject to a leaseback to
the operator for the balance of the original agreed term and for the original
agreed participation in revenues or CPI adjustments. This allows the Company to
capture a portion of the potential appreciation in value of the real estate. The
operator has the right to buy out the Company's option at formula prices.

Participating Mortgages of the Company are secured by first mortgage liens
on the underlying real estate and personal property of the mortgagor. Interest
rates are usually subject to annual increases based upon increases in the CPI or
increases in revenues of the underlying long-term care facilities, with certain
maximum limits.

Fixed-Rate Mortgage. These Mortgages of the Company, with a fixed interest
rate for the mortgage term, are also secured by first mortgage liens on the
underlying real estate and personal property of the mortgagor.

Mortgage notes receivable relate to 101 long-term care facilities. The
mortgage notes are secured by first mortgage liens on the borrowers' underlying
real estate and personal property. Through December 31, 1998, required principal
payments have been made pursuant to the terms of the underlying mortgage
agreements. Based on management's review, no provision for loss is considered
necessary. The following table summarizes the changes in mortgage notes during
1998 and 1997:

The stated interest rates indicated above for Participating Mortgages and
Convertible Participating Mortgages are subject to annual increases based upon
increases in the Consumer Price Index or increases in revenues of the underlying
long-term care facilities, with certain maximum limits. Certain of the mortgage
notes, designated as "Convertible Participating," also permit the Company to
convert the note into ownership of the related real and personal property.
Conversions would generally result in purchase/leaseback transactions with
annual economic benefit to the Company substantially the same as under the
mortgage notes.

The estimated fair value of the Company's mortgage loans at December 31,
1998 is approximately $369,416,000. Fair value is based on the estimates of
management and on rates currently prevailing for comparable loans.

On the basis of contractual provisions of the various agreements, the
principal balances of mortgage notes receivable as of December 31, 1998 are
expected to mature or to be converted to purchase/leaseback transactions
approximately as follows: $10,221,000 in 1999, $28,240,000 in 2000, $14,918,000
in 2001, $63,277,000 in 2002, $41,447,000 in 2003, and $182,352,000 thereafter.

Principal assets to Worldwide in exchange for approximately 8.5 million shares
of Worldwide common stock and 260,000 shares of Series B preferred stock. Of the
8,500,000 shares of Worldwide received by the Company, approximately 5,200,000
were distributed on April 2, 1998 to the Company's shareholders on the basis of
one Worldwide share for every 3.77 common shares of the Company held by
shareholders of the Company on the record date of February 1, 1998. Of the
remaining 3,300,000 shares of Worldwide received by the Company, 2,300,000
shares were sold by the Company on April 3, 1998 for net proceeds of
approximately $16,250,000 in a Secondary offering pursuant to a registration
statement of Worldwide. The market value of the distribution to shareholders
approximates $39 million or $1.99 per share. The Company recorded a
non-recurring gain of $30.2 million on the distribution and secondary offerings
of Worldwide common shares during 1998. As of December 31, 1998, the Company

permitted borrowings pursuant to a revolving credit facility in exchange for a
1% annual fee and an unused fee of 25 basis points. Additionally, the Company
has a Services Agreement with Worldwide which provides for the allocation of
indirect costs incurred by the Company to Worldwide. The allocation of indirect
costs is based on the relationship of assets under the Company's management to
the combined total of those assets and assets under Worldwide's management.
Indirect costs allocated to Worldwide for 1998 were $490,000.

NOTE 5 -- CONCENTRATION OF RISK

As of December 31, 1998, 95% of the Company's real estate investments

NOTE 9 -- RETIREMENT ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan covering all eligible
employees. Under the Plan, employees are eligible to make contributions, and the
Company, at its discretion, may match contributions and make a profit sharing
contribution.

In 1993, the Company adopted the 1993 Retirement Plan for Directors, which
covered all members of the Board of Directors, and the 1993 Deferred
Compensation Plan, which covered all eligible employees and members of the Board
of Directors. The Retirement Plan for Directors and participation by the
directors in the Deferred Compensation Plan was terminated effective December
31, 1997. Accumulated benefits to the Directors under both plans were settled
and paid in 1998.

The Deferred Compensation Plan is an unfunded plan in which the Company may
award units that result in participation in the dividends and future growth in
the value of the Company's common stock. The total number of units permitted by
the plan is 200,000, of which 72,250 units have been awarded and 24,500 are
outstanding at December 31, 1998. Units awarded to eligible participants vest
over a period of five years based on the participant's initial service date.

Provisions charged to operations with respect to these retirement
arrangements totaled $346,000, $667,000 and $654,000 in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

NOTE 10 -- SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY AND STOCK OPTIONS

In January 1998, the Company adopted a stock purchase assistance plan,
whereby the Company extends credit to directors and employees to purchase the
Company's stock through the exercise of stock options. These loans are secured
by the shares acquired and are repayable under full recourse promissory notes.
The plan provides for repayment of a portion of the notes from annual incentive
compensation. The notes are otherwise repayable in their entirety at the
earliest to occur of five years from the date of the note or 90 days after
termination of employment. At December 31, 1998 a total of $2,863,000 is
outstanding, payable by 16 participants who have loans at amounts ranging from
$5,150 to $300,000.

On April 28, 1998, the Company received gross proceeds of $50 million from
the issuance of 2 million shares of 8.625% Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock
("Preferred Stock") at $25 per share. Dividends on the Preferred Stock are
cumulative from the date of original issue and are payable quarterly commencing
on August 15, 1998. On April 7, 1997, the Company received gross proceeds of
$57.5 million from the issuance of 2.3 million shares of 9.25% Series A
Cumulative Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") at $25 per share. Dividends on
the Series A Preferred Stock are cumulative from the date of original issue and
are payable quarterly. At December 31, 1998, the aggregate liquidation
preference of preferred stock issued is $107,500,000.

Under the terms of the 1993 Amended and Restated Stock Option and
Restricted Stock Plan, the Company reserved 1,100,000 shares of common stock for
grants to be issued during a period of up to 10 years. Options are exercisable
at the market price at the date of grant, expire in 10 to 11 years from the date
of grant, and vest over 3 years. Directors, officers and employees are eligible
to participate in the Plan. Options for 755,816 shares have been granted to
eligible participants. Additionally, 67,344 shares of restricted stock have been
granted under the provisions of the Plan. The market value of the restricted
shares on the date of the award has been recorded as unearned
compensation-restricted stock, with the unamortized balance shown as a separate
component of shareholders' equity. Unearned compensation is amortized to expense
generally over the vesting period, with charges to operations of $612,000,
$402,000, and $240,000 in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively.

At December 31, 1998, options currently exercisable (229,427) have a
weighted average exercise price of $28.442. Shares available for future grants

In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." This standard prescribes a fair value based method of accounting
for employee stock options or similar equity instruments and requires certain
pro forma disclosures. For purposes of the pro forma disclosures required under
Statement 123, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense
over the option's vesting period. Based on the Company's option activity, net
earnings and net earnings per share on a pro forma basis does not differ
significantly from that determined under APB 25. The estimated weighted average
fair value of options granted in 1998 and 1997 was $220,000 and $1,100,000,
respectively. In determining the estimated fair value of the Company's stock
options as of the date of grant, a Black-Scholes option pricing model was used
with the following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free interest rates of
6.0%; a dividend yield of 6.75%; volatility factors of the expected market price
of the Company's common stock at 15%; and a weighted-average expected life of
the options of 8 years.

The Black-Scholes options valuation model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions
and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the
input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price
volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics
significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the
subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in
management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable
single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

that the outcome of each lawsuit, claim or legal proceeding that is pending or

NOTE 15 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On January 14, 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared
effective the Company's shelf registration statement on form S-3. The
registration statement permits the issuance from time to time of up to $300
million of common stock, unspecified debt, preferred stock and convertible
securities.

On January 18, 1999, the Company completed a $16.2 million
purchase/leaseback transaction with TLC Health Care, Inc. ("TLC"), which
involved four nursing home facilities containing 417 licensed nursing beds in
Illinois, Missouri and Ohio to affiliates of TLC. Simultaneously, the Company
made a $9.6 million mortgage loan to TLC secured by two facilities that contain
203 beds.

A quarterly dividend of $.70 per common share was declared by the Board of
Directors on January 19, 1999, payable on February 15, 1999 to shareholders of
record on January 29, 1999. In addition, the Board declared regular quarterly
dividends of $.578 per share and $.539 per share to be paid on February 15, 1999
to Series A and Series B Cumulative Preferred shareholders of record on January
29, 1999, respectively.

As of January 31, 1999, the bankruptcy court confirmed a plan of
reorganization ("Plan") of RainTree Healthcare Corporation ("RainTree"),
formerly known as Unison Healthcare Corporation. Pursuant to the Plan, all
amounts previously owing by RainTree to the Company have been paid. As part of
the Plan, the Company agreed to terminate its lease with RainTree as to six
facilities located in Indiana in which the Company's investment totals $12.2
million. In exchange for terminating its lease of these facilities, the Company
received $1 million in cash, a $3 million secured note and facilities available
for lease with a value exceeding $9 million. The Company's leases of other
facilities with Unison were ratified and confirmed with no change in rents
payable. Pursuant to the Plan, the Company completed a foreclosure of the
interest of BritWill Investments Texas, Ltd ("Brit Texas") in three facilities
located in Texas, which were leased by BritTexas to RainTree and secured by a
mortgage from the Company with a balance of $9.2 million. These facilities have
been leased directly to RainTree at an initial annual rent of $1,183,000. The
Company also purchased 7 facilities located in Colorado and Arizona from Unison
for $38.2 million, and leased these facilities back for an initial rent of
$3,629,000 per year. All leases with RainTree have been combined into a single
master lease with a 14-year term expiring in 2013. RainTree has an option to
renew the master lease only for all of the facilities for one 14-year renewal
period.
