Exchange Offer

$200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 7% Senior Notes due 2014
which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 for our
outstanding $200,000,000 7% Senior Notes due 2014


        We are offering to exchange up to $200,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of our registered 7% senior notes due 2014, which we refer to as the exchange notes, for all of our outstanding unregistered 7% senior notes due 2014, which we refer to as the initial notes. The initial notes and the exchange notes are collectively referred to as the notes. The initial notes and the exchange rates will be guaranteed by certain of our present and future domestic restricted subsidiaries with unconditional guarantees of payment that will rank equally with existing and future senior unsecured debt of such subsidiaries and senior to existing and future subordinated debt of such subsidiaries. The initial notes were issued on March 22, 2004. The terms of the exchange notes are identical to the terms of the initial notes except that the exchange notes are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and therefore are freely transferable, subject to certain conditions. The exchange notes evidence the same indebtedness as the initial notes.

        You should consider the following:

        The exchange notes bear interest at the rate of 7% per year. We will pay interest on the exchange notes on April 1 and October 1 of each year. The first such payment will be made on October 1, 2004. The exchange notes will mature on April 1, 2014. We have the option to redeem all or a portion of the exchange notes at any time on or after April 1, 2009 at the redemption prices set forth in this prospectus. Exchange notes will be issued only in registered book-entry form, in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.

        NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION OR SIMILAR AUTHORITY HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THESE SECURITIES OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

The date of this prospectus is                        , 2004.

FINANCIAL PRESENTATION

        This prospectus includes Funds From Operations, or FFO, which is a non-GAAP financial measures. For purposes of SEC Regulation G, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements) of the company; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable financial measure so calculated and presented. As used in this prospectus, GAAP refers to general accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, we have provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

        We define FFO as net income available to common stockholders, adjusted for the effects of asset dispositions and certain non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization. We believe that FFO is an important supplemental measure of our operating performance. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation (except on land), such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, while real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. The term FFO was designed by the real estate industry to address this issue. FFO herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO of other real estate investment trusts, or REITs, that do not use the same definition or implementation guidelines or interpret the standards differently from us.

        Management uses FFO as one of several criteria to measure operating performance of our business. We offer this measure to assist the users of our financial statements in analyzing our performance; however, this is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a measure of liquidity, an alternative to net income or an indicator of any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Investor and potential investors in our securities should not rely on this measure as a substitute for any GAAP measure, including net income.

        In February 2004, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, informed its member companies that it was adopting the position of the SEC with respect to asset impairment charges and would no longer recommend that impairment write-downs be excluded from FFO. In the tables included in this prospectus, we have applied this interpretation and have not excluded asset impairment charges in calculating our FFO. As a result, our FFO may not be comparable to similar measures reported in previous disclosures. According to NAREIT, there is inconsistency among NAREIT member companies as to the adoption of this interpretation of FFO. Therefore, a comparison of our FFO results to another company's FFO results may not be meaningful.

The Exchange Offer

        The following summarizes the terms of this exchange offer. You should read the discussion under the heading "The Exchange Offer" for further information regarding this exchange offer and resale of the exchange notes.

Securities to be Exchanged   On March 22, 2004, we issued $200,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of initial notes to the initial purchasers in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The terms of the exchange notes and the initial notes are substantially identical in all material respects, except that the exchange notes will be freely transferable by the holders thereof except as otherwise provided in this prospectus. See "Description of Notes."

The Exchange Offer

 

For each initial note surrendered to us pursuant to the exchange offer, the holder of such initial note will receive an exchange note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered initial note. Exchange notes will only be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The form and terms of the exchange notes will be substantially the same as the form and terms of the surrendered initial notes. The exchange notes will evidence the same indebtedness as, and will replace the initial notes tendered in exchange therefor and will be issued pursuant to, and entitled to the benefits of, the indenture governing the initial notes. As of the date of this prospectus, initial notes representing $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount are outstanding.

 

 

Under existing SEC interpretations, the exchange notes would in general be freely transferable after the exchange offer without further registration under the Securities Act; provided that, in the case of broker-dealers, a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act is delivered as required.

 

 

Each holder of initial notes that wishes to exchange such initial notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer will be required to make certain representations, including representations:

 

 


 

that any exchange notes to be received by it will be acquired in the ordinary course of its business;

 

 


 

it has no arrangement with any person to participate in the distribution of the exchange notes; and

 

 


 

it is not an "affiliate," as defined in the Securities Act, of ours or any of our subsidiaries, or if it is an affiliate, it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable.
         

4



 

 

In addition, if the holder is not a broker-dealer, it will be required to represent that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the exchange notes. If the holder is a broker-dealer that will receive exchange notes for its own account in exchange for notes that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes.

Registration Rights Agreement

 

We sold the initial notes on March 22, 2004, in a private offering in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

Description of Exchange Notes

        The following summarizes the terms of the exchange notes. You should read the discussion under the heading "Description of Notes" for further information regarding the exchange notes.

Issuer   Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc.

Securities Offered

 

$200,000,000 principal amount of 7% senior notes due 2014.

Maturity

 

April 1, 2014.

Interest Rate

 

7% per year (calculated using a 360-day year).

Interest Payment Dates

 

October 1 and April 1, beginning on October 1, 2004. Interest will accrue from the issue date of the notes.

Ranking

 

The notes will be unsecured senior obligations of the issuer and will rank equally with our existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior to all of our existing and future subordinated debt. The guarantees by our subsidiaries will rank equally with existing and future senior unsecured debt of such subsidiaries and senior to existing and future subordinated debt of such subsidiaries. The notes and the related guarantees will be effectively subordinated to all of our secured indebtedness and that of the guarantors.

 

 

As of March 31, 2004, we and our subsidiaries had $313.5 million of senior debt, of which none was secured. On the same date, we had approximately $102.9 million of availability under our new senior credit facility.

Guarantees

 

The notes will be unconditionally guaranteed by our existing or future subsidiaries that guarantee our senior credit facility or any of our other indebtedness.

Optional Redemption

 

We cannot redeem the notes until April 1, 2009. Thereafter, we may redeem some or all of the notes at the redemption prices listed in the "Description of the Notes" section under the heading "Optional Redemption," plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

Optional Redemption After Public Equity Offerings

 

At any time (which may be more than once) on or before April 1, 2007, we can choose to redeem up to 35% of the outstanding notes with money that we raise in one or more equity offerings, as long as:

 

 


 

we pay 107% of the face amount of the notes, plus interest;

 

 


 

we redeem the notes within 90 days of completing the equity offering; and

 

 


 

at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued remains outstanding afterwards.
         

7



Change of Control Offer

 

If a change of control occurs, we must give holders of the notes the opportunity to sell us their notes at 101% of their face amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. We might not be able to pay you the required price for notes you present to us at the time of a change of control, because:

 

 


 

we might not have enough funds at that time; or

 

 


 

the terms of our other senior debt may prevent us from paying.

Asset Sale Proceeds

 

If we or our subsidiaries engage in asset sales, we generally must either invest the net cash proceeds from such sales in our business within a period of time, permanently repay debt under our new senior credit facility or make an offer to repurchase a principal amount of the notes equal to the excess net cash proceeds. The purchase price of the notes will be 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

Certain Indenture Provisions

 

The indenture governing the notes will contain covenants limiting our (and all of our subsidiaries') ability to:

 

 


 

incur additional debt;

 

 


 

pay dividends or distributions on our capital stock or repurchase our capital stock or repay our indebtedness;

 

 


 

make certain investments;

 

 


 

create liens on our assets to secure debt;

 

 


 

enter into transactions with affiliates;

 

 


 

merge or consolidate with another company; and

 

 


 

transfer and sell assets.

 

 

In addition, the indenture governing the notes will require us to maintain a minimum ratio of unencumbered assets to unsecured indebtedness. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions.

Suspension of Covenants

 

Under the indenture governing the notes, in the event, and only for as long as, the notes are rated investment grade and no default or event of default has occurred or is continuing, many of the covenants above will not apply to us.

No Public Market

 

There is no public market for the exchange notes. Although the initial purchasers have informed us that they intend to make a market in the exchange notes, they are not obligated to do so and they may discontinue market-making at any time without notice. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that a liquid market for the exchange notes will develop or be maintained.

RISK FACTORS

        You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth below, as well as the other information contained in this prospectus. The risks described below are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business operations. Any of the following risks could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. In such case you may lose all or part of your original investment.

Risks Relating to The Exchange Offer

Our substantial level of indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under the notes.

        We have a substantial amount of debt requiring significant interest payments. On March 31, 2004, we had a total debt of approximately $313.5 million, of which $10.0 million consisted of borrowings under our new credit facility. We also have our outstanding initial notes and $100 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6.95% notes due 2007. We had stockholder's equity of approximately $450.0 million at March 31, 2004. As of March 31, 2004, our capitalization and ratio of total debt to total capitalization were as follows (in thousands):

New senior credit facility   $ 10,000  
Total indebtedness under the initial notes     200,000  
6.95% notes due 2007     100,000  
Other long term borrowings     3,520  
   
 
  Total debt   $ 313,520  
Total stockholders' equity     449,950  
   
 
  Total capitalization   $ 763,470  
   
 
Total debt to total capitalization     41.1 %
   
 

        Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences to you. For example, it could:

11


        In addition, the indenture governing the notes the notes and our new senior credit facility contain financial and other restrictive covenants limiting our ability to engage in activities that may be in our long-term best interests. Our failure to comply with those covenants could result in an event of default, which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all of our debts.

Your right to receive payment on the notes will be effectively subordinated to our obligations under the senior secured credit facility and certain other secured indebtedness.

        The notes will not be secured. Our obligations and the obligations of the subsidiary guarantors under our new senior credit facility are secured by a first priority security interest on substantially all of our and the subsidiary guarantors' assets. Any borrowings by us or the subsidiary guarantors under the new senior credit facility will be senior in payment rights to these notes. In the event of our liquidation or insolvency, or if any of our secured indebtedness is accelerated, the assets securing such indebtedness will first be applied to repay our obligations under our secured indebtedness in full and then to repay our obligations under our unsecured indebtedness, including under the notes. As a result, the notes are effectively subordinated to our new senior credit facility and our other secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing that indebtedness. The holders of the notes would, in all likelihood recover ratably less than the lenders of our secured indebtedness in the event of our bankruptcy or insolvency. As of March 31, 2004, we have no senior secured debt and other structurally senior debt outstanding, excluding $102.9 million of availability under the new senior credit facility.

Our subsidiaries hold most of our assets and conduct most of our operations and, unless they are subsidiaries that guarantee the notes, they are not obligated to make payments on the notes.

        Most of our operations are conducted through our subsidiaries. Therefore, we depend on the cash flow of our subsidiaries to meet our obligations under the notes. Our subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and, except for the existing and future domestic subsidiaries that will be subsidiary guarantors of the notes, they will have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay amounts due under the notes or to make any funds available to pay those amounts, whether by dividend, distribution, loan or other payments. If there are any non-guarantor subsidiaries, the creditors of those non-guarantor subsidiaries will have direct claims on those subsidiaries and their assets, the claims of holders of the notes would be "structurally subordinated" to any liabilities of our future non-guarantor subsidiaries. This means that the creditors of the non-guarantor subsidiaries have priority in their claims on the assets of our subsidiaries over our creditors. Our operating subsidiaries' ability to make loans, distributions or other payments to us will depend on their earnings, business, tax considerations and legal and contractual restrictions, which may adversely impact our ability to pay interest and principal due on the notes.

Federal and state fraudulent transfer and conveyance laws may permit a court to void the notes and the guarantees, and, if that occurs, you may not receive any payments on the notes.

        The issuance of the notes and the guarantees may be subject to review under federal and state fraudulent transfer and conveyance statutes. While the relevant laws may vary from state to state, under such laws the payment of consideration will be a fraudulent transfer or conveyance if (1) we paid the consideration with the intent of hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors or (2) we or any of the guarantors, as applicable, received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration in return

12



for issuing either the notes or a guarantee, and, in the case of (2) only, one of the following is also true:

        If a court were to find that the issuance of the notes or a guarantee was a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, the court could void the payment obligations under the new notes or such guarantee or further subordinate the new notes or such guarantee to presently existing and future indebtedness of ours or such guarantor, or require the holders of the notes to repay any amounts received with respect to the notes or such guarantee. In the event of a finding that a fraudulent transfer or conveyance occurred, you may not receive any repayment on the notes. Further, the voidance of the notes could result in an event of default with respect to our other debt and that of our subsidiaries that could result in acceleration of such debt.

        Generally, an entity would be considered insolvent if, at the time it incurred indebtedness:

        We cannot be certain as to the standards a court would use to determine whether or not we or the guarantors were solvent at the relevant time, or regardless of the standard that a court uses, that the issuance of the new notes and the guarantees would not be subordinated to our or any guarantor's other debt. If any other subsidiary of ours guarantees the notes in the future, such guarantee will become subject to the same risks described above.

        If any of the guarantees were legally challenged, such challenged guarantee could also be subject to the claim that, since the guarantee was incurred for our benefit, and only indirectly for the benefit of the guarantor, the obligations of the applicable guarantor were incurred for less than fair consideration. A court could thus void the obligations under the guarantees, subordinate them to the applicable guarantor's other debt or take other action detrimental to the holders of the notes.

The indenture for the notes and our new senior credit facility impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us, which may prevent us from capitalizing on business opportunities and taking some corporate actions.

        The indenture for the notes and our new senior credit facility impose, and the terms of any future debt may impose, significant operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions, among other things, limit our ability and that of our subsidiaries to:

13


        In addition, our new senior credit facility requires us to maintain specified financial ratios and satisfy other financial conditions tests. We cannot assure you that these covenants will not adversely affect our ability to finance our future operations or capital needs or to pursue available business opportunities or limit our ability to plan for or react to market conditions or meet capital needs or otherwise restrict our activities or business plans. A breach of any of these covenants or our inability to maintain the required financial ratios could result in a default in respect of the related indebtedness. If a default occurs, the relevant lenders could elect to declare the indebtedness, together with accrued interest and other fees, to be immediately due and payable and proceed against any collateral securing that indebtedness.

We may not have the ability to raise the funds necessary to finance any change of control offer required by the indenture governing the notes.

        Upon the occurrence of certain specific kind of change of control events, we will be required to offer to repurchase all outstanding notes at 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. However, it is possible that we will not have sufficient funds at the time of the change of control to make any required repurchases of notes or that restrictions in our existing or future senior credit facilities will not allow such repurchases. In addition, certain important corporate events, such as leveraged recapitalizations that would increase the level of our indebtedness, would not constitute a "Change of Control" under the indenture.

If an active trading market for the notes does not develop, the liquidity and value of the notes could be harmed.

        The exchange notes have been registered under the Securities Act. Although the exchange notes are eligible for trading, we cannot assure you that an active trading market will develop for the exchange notes. If no active trading market develops, you may not be able to resell your exchange notes at their fair market value or at all. Future trading prices of the exchange notes will depend on many factors, including, among other things, the success of this exchange offer, prevailing interest rates, our operating results and the market for similar securities. We may or may not apply for listing of the exchange notes on a national securities exchange at some point in the future.

14



Risks Related to the Operators of Our Facilities

        Our financial position could be weakened and our ability to fulfill our obligations under the notes could be limited if any of our major operators were unable to meet their obligations to us or failed to renew or extend their relationship with us as their lease terms expire, or if we were unable to lease or re-lease our facilities or make mortgage loans on economically favorable terms. These adverse developments could arise due to a number of factors, including those listed below.

Our recent efforts to restructure and stabilize our portfolio may not prove to be successful.

        In large part as a result of the 1997 changes in Medicare reimbursement of services provided by skilled nursing facilities and reimbursement cuts imposed under state Medicaid programs, a number of operators of our properties have encountered significant financial difficulties during the last several years. In 1999, our investment portfolio consisted of 216 properties and our largest public operators (by investment) were Sun Healthcare Group, Inc., or Sun, Integrated Health Services or IHS, Advocat, Inc., or Advocat, and Mariner Health Care, Inc., or Mariner. Some of these operators, including Sun, IHS and Mariner, subsequently filed for bankruptcy protection. Other of our operators were required to undertake significant restructuring efforts. We have restructured our arrangements with many of our operators whereby we have renegotiated lease and mortgage terms, re-leased properties to new operators and have closed and/or disposed of properties. At March 31, 2004, our investment portfolio consisted of 209 properties and our largest public operators (by investment) were Sun (19.3%), Advocat (12.8%) and Mariner (7.4%). Our largest private company operators (by investment) were Seacrest Healthcare (6.8%) and HQM of Floyd County Inc. (4.5%).

        We continue to have ongoing restructuring discussions with Claremont regarding two facilities Claremont currently leases from us. We might not be successful in reaching a definitive agreement with Claremont. We are also aware of four properties in our portfolio located in Illinois where facility operations are currently insufficient to meet rental payments due to us under our leases for these facilities. These lease payments are currently being paid by the lessee from funds other than those generated by the facilities. It is possible that we will need to take steps to restructure this portion of our portfolio, or other properties in our portfolio with respect to which our operators encounter financial difficulty. We cannot assure you that our recent efforts to restructure and stabilize our property portfolio will be successful.

The bankruptcy, insolvency or financial deterioration of our operators could delay our ability to collect unpaid rents or require us to find new operators for rejected facilities.

        We are exposed to the risk that our operators may not be able to meet their obligations, which may result in their bankruptcy or insolvency. Although our leases and loans provide us the right to terminate an investment, evict an operator, demand immediate repayment and other remedies, the bankruptcy laws afford certain protections to a party that has filed for bankruptcy that may render these remedies unenforceable. In addition, an operator in bankruptcy may be able to restrict our ability to collect unpaid rent or mortgage payments during the bankruptcy case.

        If one of our lessees seeks bankruptcy protection, Title 11 of the United States Code, or Bankruptcy Code, provides that a trustee in a liquidation or reorganization case under the Bankruptcy Code, or a debtor-in-possession in a reorganization case under the Bankruptcy Code, has the option to assume or reject the unexpired lease obligations of a debtor-lessee. However, our lease arrangements with operators who operate more than one of our facilities are generally made pursuant to a single master lease covering all of that operator's facilities leased from us. Subject to certain restrictions, a debtor-lessee under a master lease agreement would generally be required to assume or reject a master lease as a whole, rather than making the decision on a facility by facility basis, thereby preventing the debtor-lessee from assuming only the better performing facilities and terminating the leasing

15



arrangement with respect to the poorer performing facilities. Whether or not a court would require a master lease agreement to be assumed or rejected as a whole would depend on a number of factors, including applicable state law, the parties intent, whether the master lease agreement and related documents were executed contemporaneously, the nature and purpose of the relevant documents, whether there was separate and distinct consideration for each lease, and the provisions contained in the relevant documents, including whether the relevant documents are interrelated and contain ample cross-references. Therefore, it is not possible to predict how a bankruptcy court would decide this issue.

        If an operator defaults under one of our mortgage loans, we may have to foreclose on the mortgage or protect our interest by acquiring title to the property and thereafter making substantial improvements or repairs in order to maximize the facility's investment potential. Operators may contest enforcement of foreclosure or other remedies, seek bankruptcy protection against our exercise of enforcement or other remedies and/or bring claims for lender liability in response to actions to enforce mortgage obligations. If an operator seeks bankruptcy protection, the automatic stay provisions of the federal bankruptcy law would preclude us from enforcing foreclosure or other remedies against the operator unless relief is obtained from the court. High "loan to value" ratios or declines in the value of the facility may prevent us from realizing an amount equal to our mortgage loan upon foreclosure.

        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 and licensure process of any federal, state or local agency necessary for the replacement of the previous operator licensed to manage the facility. In some instances, we may take possession of a property and such action could expose us to successor liabilities. These events, if they were to occur, could reduce our revenue and operating cash flow.

Operators that fail to comply with governmental reimbursement programs such as Medicare or Medicaid, licensing and certification requirements, fraud and abuse regulations or new legislative developments may be unable to meet their obligations to us.

        Our operators are subject to numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations that are subject to frequent and substantial changes (sometimes applied retroactively) resulting from legislation,

16



adoption of rules and regulations, and administrative and judicial interpretations of existing law. The ultimate timing or effect of these changes cannot be predicted. These changes may have a dramatic effect on our operators' costs of doing business and the amount of reimbursement by both government and other third-party payors. The failure of any of our operators to comply with these laws, requirements and regulations could adversely affect their ability to meet their obligations to us. In particular:

17


        Regulatory proposals and rules are released on an ongoing basis that may have a major impact on the healthcare system generally and the skilled nursing and long-term care industries in particular.

Our operators depend on reimbursement from governmental and other third-party payors and reimbursement rates from such payors may be reduced.

        Changes in the reimbursement rate or methods of payment from third-party payors, including the Medicare and Medicaid programs, or the implementation of other measures to reduce reimbursements for services provided by our operators has in the past, and could in the future, result in a substantial reduction in our operators' revenues and operating margins. Additionally, net revenue realizable under third-party payor agreements can change after examination and retroactive adjustment by payors during the claims settlement processes or as a result of post-payment audits. Payors may disallow requests for reimbursement based on determinations that certain costs are not reimbursable or reasonable or because additional documentation is necessary or because certain services were not covered or were not medically necessary. There also continue to be new legislative and regulatory proposals that could impose further limitations on government and private payments to healthcare providers. In some cases, states have enacted or are considering enacting measures designed to reduce their Medicaid expenditures and to make changes to private healthcare insurance. We cannot assure you that adequate reimbursement levels will continue to be available for the services provided by our operators, which are currently being reimbursed by Medicare, Medicaid or private third-party payors. Further limits on the scope of services reimbursed and on reimbursement rates could have a material adverse effect on our operators' liquidity, financial condition and results of operations, which could cause the revenues of our operators to decline and potentially jeopardize their ability to meet their obligations to us.

Our operators may be subject to significant legal actions that could subject them to increased operating costs and substantial uninsured liabilities, which may affect their ability to pay their lease and mortgage payments to us.

        As is typical in the healthcare industry, our operators are often subject to claims that their services have resulted in resident injury or other adverse effects. Many of these operators have experienced an increasing trend in the frequency and severity of professional liability and general liability insurance claims and litigation asserted against them. The insurance coverage maintained by our operators may not cover all claims made against them nor continue to be available at a reasonable cost, if at all. In some states, insurance coverage for the risk of punitive damages arising from professional liability and general liability claims and/or litigation may not, in certain cases, be available to operators due to state law prohibitions or limitations of availability. As a result, our operators operating in these states may

18



be liable for punitive damage awards that are either not covered or are in excess of their insurance policy limits. We also believe that there has been, and will continue to be, an increase in governmental investigations of long-term care providers, particularly in the area of Medicare/Medicaid false claims, as well as an increase in enforcement actions resulting from these investigations. Insurance is not available to cover such losses. Any adverse determination in a legal proceeding or governmental investigation, whether currently asserted or arising in the future, could have a material adverse effect on an operator's financial condition. If an operator is unable to obtain or maintain insurance coverage, if judgments are obtained in excess of the insurance coverage, if an operator is required to pay uninsured punitive damages, or if an operator is subject to an uninsurable government enforcement action, the operator could be exposed to substantial additional liabilities.

One of our largest operators was recently served with six lawsuits by the State of Arkansas seeking substantial damages relating to patient care issues and alleged Medicaid false claims.

        On February 19, 2004, Advocat announced that it had been served with six lawsuits by the State of Arkansas alleging violations by Advocat and certain of its subsidiaries of the Arkansas Abuse of Adults Act and the Arkansas Medicaid False Claims Act. In its announcement, Advocat stated that the complaints seek, in the aggregate, actual damages of approximately $250,000 and fines and penalties in excess of $45 million. Although Advocat stated its intention to vigorously defend itself against the subject allegations, Advocat further stated that it cannot predict the outcome of the subject lawsuits or the impact of the ultimate outcome on Advocat's financial condition, cash flows or results of operations. Advocat accounts for approximately 13.4% of our 2003 total revenues. In the event that there is an adverse outcome to Advocat in these lawsuits, or in the event that Advocat's business is otherwise adversely affected as a result of the lawsuits (for example, as a result of penalties imposed in connection with a settlement of the lawsuits, as a result of licensure revocation, admission holds or similar restrictions being imposed or as a result of a decline in business due to reputational issues), and Advocat is unable to pay its full monthly rental obligation to us, then we will experience a reduction of our rental income. Should such events occur, our income and cash flows from operations would be adversely affected. We are unable currently to predict how this matter may ultimately affect us.

Increased competition as well as increased operating costs have resulted in lower revenues for some of our operators and may affect the ability of our tenants to meet their payment obligations to us.

        The healthcare industry is highly competitive and we expect that it may become more competitive in the future. Our operators are competing with numerous other companies providing similar healthcare services or alternatives such as home health agencies, life care at home, community-based service programs, retirement communities and convalescent centers. We cannot be certain the operators of all of our facilities will be able to achieve occupancy and rate levels that will enable them to meet all of their obligations to us. Our operators may encounter increased competition in the future that could limit their ability to attract residents or expand their businesses and therefore affect their ability to pay their lease or mortgage payments.

        The market for qualified nurses, healthcare professionals and other key personnel is highly competitive and our operators may experience difficulties in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. Increases in labor costs due to higher wages and greater benefits required to attract and retain qualified healthcare personnel incurred by our operators could affect their ability to pay their lease or mortgage payments. This situation could be particularly acute in certain states that have enacted legislation establishing minimum staffing requirements.

Risks Related to Us and Our Operations

        In addition to the operator related risks discussed above, there are a number of risks directly associated with us and our operations.

19



We rely on external sources of capital to fund future capital needs, and if we encounter difficulty in obtaining such capital, we may not be able to make future investments necessary to grow our business or meet maturing commitments.

        In order to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, or the Code, we are required, among other things, to distribute each year to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income. Because of this distribution requirement, we may not be able to fund, from cash retained from operations, all future capital needs, including capital needs to make investments and to satisfy or refinance maturing commitments. As a result, we rely on external sources of capital. If we are unable to obtain needed capital at all or only on unfavorable terms from these sources, we might not be able to make the investments needed to grow our business, or to meet our obligations and commitments as they mature, which could negatively affect the ratings of our debt and even, in extreme circumstances, affect our ability to continue operations. Our access to capital depends upon a number of factors over which we have little or no control, including general market conditions and the market's perception of our growth potential and our current and potential future earnings and cash distributions and the market price of the shares of our capital stock. Generally speaking, difficult capital market conditions in our industry during the past several years and our need to stabilize our portfolio have limited our access to capital. Our potential capital sources include, but are not limited to:

        Equity Financing.    As with other publicly-traded companies, the availability of equity capital will depend, in part, on the market price of our common stock which, in turn, will depend upon various market conditions and other factors that may change from time to time including:

        The market value of the equity securities of a REIT is generally based upon the market's perception of the REIT's growth potential and its current and potential future earnings and cash distributions. Our failure to meet the market's expectation with regard to future earnings and cash distributions would likely adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

        Debt Financing/Leverage.    Financing for future investments and our maturing commitments may be provided by borrowings under our new senior credit facility, private or public offerings of debt, the assumption of secured indebtedness, mortgage financing on a portion of our owned portfolio or through joint ventures. We are subject to risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risks that our cash flow will be insufficient to make timely payments of interest, that we will be unable to refinance existing indebtedness and that the terms of refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. If we are unable to refinance or extend principal payments due at maturity or pay them with proceeds from other capital transactions, our cash flow may not be sufficient in all years to pay distributions to our stockholders and to repay all maturing debt. Furthermore, if prevailing interest rates, changes in our debt ratings or other factors at the time of refinancing result in

20



higher interest rates upon refinancing, the interest expense relating to that refinanced indebtedness would increase, which could reduce our profitability and the amount of dividends we are able to pay. Moreover, additional debt financing increases the amount of our leverage.

Certain of our operators account for a significant percentage of our revenues.

        Based on existing contractual rent and lease payments regarding the restructuring of certain existing investments, Advocat and Sun each account for over 10% of our current contractual monthly revenues, with Sun accounting for slightly over 20% of our current contractual monthly revenues. Additionally, our top five operators account for approximately 55% of our current contractual monthly revenues. The failure or inability of any of these operators to pay their obligations to us could materially reduce our revenues and net income, which could in turn reduce the amount of dividends we pay and cause our stock price to decline.

Unforeseen costs associated with the acquisition of new properties could reduce our profitability.

        Our business strategy contemplates future acquisitions that may not prove to be successful. For example, we might encounter unanticipated difficulties and expenditures relating to any acquired properties, including contingent liabilities, or newly acquired properties might require significant management attention that would otherwise be devoted to our ongoing business. If we agree to provide funding to enable healthcare operators to build, expand or renovate facilities on our properties and the project is not completed, we could be forced to become involved in the development to ensure completion or we could lose the property. These costs may negatively affect our results of operations.

Our assets may be subject to impairment charges.

        We periodically, but not less than annually, evaluate our real estate investments and other assets for impairment indicators. The judgment regarding the existence of impairment indicators is based on factors such as market conditions, operator performance and legal structure. If we determine that a significant impairment has occurred, we would be required to make an adjustment to the net carrying value of the asset, which could have a material adverse affect on our results of operations and funds from operations in the period in which the write-off occurs.

We may not be able to sell certain closed facilities for their book value.

        From time to time, we close facilities and actively market such facilities for sale. To the extent we are unable to sell these properties for our book value, we may be required to take a non-cash impairment charge or loss on the sale, either of which would reduce our net income.

Our real estate investments are relatively illiquid.

        Real estate investments are relatively illiquid and, therefore, tend to limit our ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. All of our 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 our properties becomes unprofitable due to competition, age of improvements or other factors such that our lessee or mortgagor becomes unable to meet its obligations on the lease or

21



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 with a new 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, our income and cash flows from operations would be adversely affected.

As an owner or lender with respect to real property, we may be exposed to possible environmental liabilities.

        Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner of real property or a secured lender, such as us, may be liable in certain circumstances for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, under or disposed of in connection with such property, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances, including government fines and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence or disposal of such substances and liability may be imposed on the owner in connection with the activities of an operator of the property. The cost of any required remediation, removal, fines or personal or property damages and the owner's liability therefore could exceed the value of the property and/or the assets of the owner. In addition, the presence of such substances, or the failure to properly dispose of or remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such property as collateral which, in turn, would reduce the owner's revenues.

        Although our leases and mortgage loans require the lessee and the mortgagor to indemnify us for certain environmental liabilities, the scope of such obligations may be limited, and we cannot assure you that any such mortgagor or lessee would be able to fulfill its indemnification obligations.

The industry in which we operate is highly competitive. This competition may prevent us from raising prices at the same pace as our costs increase.

        We compete for additional healthcare facility investments with other healthcare investors, including other REITs. 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 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. If our cost of capital should increase relative to the cost of capital of our competitors, the spread that we realize on our investments may decline if competitive pressures limit or prevent us from charging higher lease or mortgage rates.

We are named as defendants in litigation arising out of professional liability and general liability claims relating to our previously owned and operated facilities which if decided against us, could adversely affect our financial condition.

        We and several of our wholly-owned subsidiaries have been named as defendants in professional liability and general liability claims related to our owned and operated facilities. Other third-party managers responsible for the day-to-day operations of these facilities have also been named as defendants in these claims. In these suits, patients of certain previously owned and operated facilities have alleged significant damages, including punitive damages, against the defendants. The lawsuits are in various stages of discovery and we are unable to predict the likely outcome at this time. We continue to vigorously defend these claims and pursue all rights we may have against the managers of the facilities, under the terms of the management agreements. We have insured these matters, subject to self-insured retentions of various amounts. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in our

22



defense of these matters or in asserting our claims against various managers of the subject facilities or that the amount of any settlement or judgment will be substantially covered by insurance or that any punitive damages will be covered by insurance.

If we fail to maintain our REIT status, we will be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates.

        We were organized to qualify for taxation as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. We believe we have conducted, and we intend to continue to conduct, our operations so as to qualify as a REIT. Qualification as a REIT involves the satisfaction of numerous requirements, some on an annual and some on a quarterly basis, established under highly technical and complex provisions of the Code for which there are only limited judicial and administrative interpretations and involve the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control. We cannot assure you that we will at all times satisfy these rules and tests.

        If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, as a result of a determination that we failed to meet the annual distribution requirement or otherwise, we would be subject to federal income tax, including any applicable alternative minimum tax, on our taxable income at regular corporate rates with respect to each such taxable year for which the statute of limitations remains open. Moreover, unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, we also would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost. This treatment would significantly reduce our net earnings and cash flow because of our additional tax liability for the years involved, which could significantly impact our ability to pay interest and principal with respect to the notes.

To maintain our REIT status, we must distribute at least 90% of our taxable income each year.

        We generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our taxable income to our stockholders to maintain our REIT status. As a result, those earnings will not be available to pay principal or interest with respect to the notes.

We are exposed to market risk due to the fact that borrowings under our new senior credit facility are or will be subject to wide fluctuations based on changing interest rates.

        Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with variable borrowings under our new senior credit facility. Since our new senior credit facility provides for variable rates, if market interest rates rise, so will our required interest payments on borrowings under the new senior credit facility. We do not currently have any mechanism in place to manage, or hedge, the market risk associated with our variable rate debt.

We depend upon our key employees and may be unable to attract or retain sufficient numbers of qualified personnel.

        Our future performance depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of our executive management team and other key employees. Accordingly, our future success depends on our ability to attract, hire, train and retain highly skilled management and other qualified personnel. Competition for qualified employees is intense, and we compete for qualified employees with companies that may have greater financial resources than we have. Our employment agreements with our executive officers provide that their employment may be terminated by either party at any time. Consequently, we may not be successful in attracting, hiring, training and retaining the people we need, which would seriously impede our ability to implement our business strategy.

USE OF PROCEEDS

        We will not receive any proceeds from the exchange offer. The net proceeds to us from the sale of the initial notes in the March 22, 2004 offering was approximately $194 million, after deducting the initial purchasers' discount and expenses of the offering. We used the net proceeds of the offering to repay borrowings under our GECC credit facility. The balance will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

THE EXCHANGE OFFER

Purpose and Effect; Registration Rights

        We sold the initial notes on March 22, 2004 in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Thus, the initial notes are subject to significant restrictions on resale. In connection with the issuance of the initial notes, we entered into a registration rights agreement, which required that we, at our cost, would:

        For each initial note surrendered to us pursuant to the exchange offer, the holder of such note will receive an exchange note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered note.

        Under existing SEC interpretations, the exchange notes would in general be freely transferable after the exchange offer without further registration under the Securities Act. In the case of broker-dealers, however, a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act is delivered as required below. We have agreed, for a period of 180 days after consummation of the exchange offer to make available a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of any such exchange notes acquired as described below. A broker-dealer that delivers such a prospectus to purchasers in connection with such resales will be subject to certain of the civil liability provisions under the Securities Act, and will be bound by the provisions of the registration rights agreement including certain indemnification rights and obligations.

        Each holder of initial notes that wishes to exchange such notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer will be required to make certain representations including representations that:

        If the holder is not a broker-dealer, it will be required to represent that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the exchange notes. If the holder is a broker-dealer that will receive exchange notes for its own account in exchange for notes that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes.

        If, because of any change in law or in currently prevailing interpretations of the staff of the SEC, we are not permitted to effect such an exchange offer, or if for any other reason the exchange offer is

28



not consummated within 210 days of the issue date or, under certain circumstances, if the initial purchasers shall so request, we will, at our own expense:

        We will, in the event of the shelf registration statement, provide to each holder of the initial notes copies of the prospectus which is a part of the shelf registration statement, notify each such holder when the shelf registration statement for the notes has become effective and take certain other actions as are required to permit unrestricted resales of the notes. A holder of the notes that sells such notes pursuant to the shelf registration statement generally would be required to be named as a selling securityholder in the related prospectus and to deliver a prospectus to purchasers, will be subject to certain of the civil liability provisions under the Securities Act in connection with such sales and will be bound by the provisions of the registration rights agreement which are applicable to such a holder, including certain indemnification rights and obligations.

        There can be no assurance that one of the registration statements described above will be filed, or if filed, will become effective. If we fail to comply with the above provisions or if such registration statement fails to become effective, then, additional interest shall become payable in respect of the initial notes as follows:

(each event referred to in the examples listed immediately above is a "registration default"), the sole remedy available to holders of the notes will be the immediate assessment of additional interest as follows: the per annum interest rate on the notes will increase by 0.5%, and the per year interest rate will increase by an additional 0.5% for each subsequent 90-day period during which the registration default remains uncured, up to a maximum additional interest rate of 2.0% per year in excess of the interest rate. All additional interest will be payable to holders of the notes in cash on each interest payment date, commencing with the first such date occurring after any such additional interest commences to accrue, until such registration default is cured. After the date on which such registration default is cured, the interest rate on the notes will revert to the interest rate originally borne by the notes.

        The summary herein of certain provisions of the registration rights agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the registration rights agreement, a copy of which has been filed with our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 26, 2004.

Terms of the Exchange Offer

        We are offering to exchange $200,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 7% senior notes due 2014 which have been registered under the Securities Act for a like aggregate principal amount of our outstanding unregistered 7% senior notes due 2014.

        Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus, we will accept for all initial notes validly tendered and not withdrawn before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date of the exchange offer. We will issue $1,000 principal amount of exchange notes in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of outstanding initial notes accepted in the exchange offer. You may tender some or all of your initial notes under the exchange offer. However, the initial notes are issuable in authorized denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum amount of initial notes being tendered.

        The form and terms of the exchange notes will be identical in all material respects to the form and terms of the initial notes, except that the exchange notes will be registered with the SEC and, therefore, will not be subject to the restrictions on transfer or bear legends restricting their transfer. The exchange notes will not provide for registration rights or the payment of liquidated damages under circumstances relating to the timing of the exchange offer. The exchange notes will evidence the same debt as the initial notes and will be issued under, and entitled to the benefits of, the indenture governing the initial notes.

        The exchange notes will accrue interest from the most recent date on which interest has been paid on the initial notes or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance of the initial notes. Accordingly, registered holders of exchange notes on the record date for the first interest payment date following the completion of the exchange offer will receive interest accrued from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the initial notes or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance of the initial notes. However, if that record date occurs prior to completion of the exchange offer, then the interest payable on the first interest payment date following the completion of the exchange offer will be paid to the registered holders of the initial notes on that record date.

        In connection with the exchange offer, you do not have any appraisal or dissenters' rights under applicable law or the indenture. We intend to conduct the exchange offer in accordance with the registration rights agreement and the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC. The exchange offer is not being made to, nor will we accept tenders for exchange from, holders of the initial notes in any jurisdiction in which the exchange offer or the acceptance of it would not be in compliance with the securities or blue sky laws of the jurisdiction.

        We will be deemed to have accepted validly tendered initial notes when we have given oral or written notice of our acceptance to the exchange agent. The exchange agent will act as agent for the tendering holders for the purpose of receiving the exchange notes from us.

        If we do not accept any tendered initial notes because of an invalid tender or for any other reason, then we will return any unaccepted initial notes without expense to the tendering holder promptly after the expiration date.

        Holders who tender initial notes in the exchange offer will not be required to pay brokerage commissions or fees. We will pay all charges and expenses, other than certain applicable taxes, in connection with the exchange offer. See "—Fees and Expenses" below for more detailed information regarding the expenses of the exchange offer.

30



        By submitting to the exchange agent an agent's message defined below, you will be making the representations described under "—Procedures for Tendering" below.

Expiration Date; Extension; Amendments

        The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on                        , 2004 unless we, in our sole discretion, extend the exchange offer, in which case the expiration date means the latest date and time to which we extend the exchange offer.

        In order to extend the exchange offer, we will notify the exchange agent of any extension by written notice and will make a public announcement thereof, each prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date. During any extension, all initial notes previously tendered will remain subject to the exchange offer and may be accepted for exchange by us. Any initial notes not accepted for exchange for any reason will be returned without expense to the tendering holder promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer.

        We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and at any time, to:

        We will notify you as promptly as practicable of any extension, amendment or termination. We will also file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part with respect to any fundamental changes in the exchange offer.

Conditions of the Exchange Offer

        Notwithstanding any other term of the exchange offer, we will not be required to accept for exchange, or exchange the exchange notes for, any initial notes if in our reasonable judgment:


        The conditions listed above are for our sole benefit and we may assert them prior to the expiration date regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any condition. Subject to applicable law, we may waive these conditions in our discretion in whole or in part prior to the expiration date. If we waive these conditions, then we intend to continue the exchange offer for at least five business days after the waiver. If we fail at any time to exercise any of the above rights, the failure will not be deemed a waiver of those rights, and those rights will be deemed ongoing rights which may be asserted at any time and from time to time.

        We will not accept for exchange any initial notes tendered, and will not issue exchange notes in exchange for any initial notes, if at that time a stop order is threatened or in effect with respect to the

31



registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939.

Interest

        The exchange notes will bear interest at a rate equal to 7% per annum. We will pay interest on the notes twice a year, on each April 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2004. See "Description of Notes."

Procedures for Tendering Initial Notes

        A holder who wishes to tender initial notes in the exchange offer must transmit to the exchange agent an agent's message, which agent's message must be received by the exchange agent prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. In addition, the exchange agent must receive a timely confirmation of book-entry transfer of the initial notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC under the procedure for book-entry transfers described below along with a properly transmitted agent's message, on or before the expiration date.

        The term "agent's message" means a message, transmitted by a book-entry transfer facility to, and received by, the exchange agent, and forming a part of the book-entry confirmation, which states that the book-entry transfer facility has received an express acknowledgement from the tendering participant stating that the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms and subject to the condition set forth in this prospectus. To receive confirmation of valid tender of initial notes, a holder should contact the exchange agent at the telephone number listed under "—Exchange Agent."

        Any tender of initial notes that is not withdrawn prior to the expiration date will constitute a binding agreement between the tendering holder and us upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus. Only a registered holder of initial notes may tender the initial notes in the exchange offer. If you wish to tender initial notes that are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, you should promptly instruct the registered holder to tender on your behalf.

        We will determine in our sole discretion all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, including time of receipt, and acceptance of initial notes tendered for exchange. Our determination will be final and binding on all parties. We reserve the absolute right to reject any and all tenders of initial notes not properly tendered or initial notes our acceptance of which might, in the judgment of our counsel, be unlawful. We also reserve the absolute right to waive any defects, irregularities or conditions of tender as to any particular initial notes. However, to the extent we waive any conditions of tender with respect to one tender of initial notes, we will waive that condition for all tenders as well. Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the exchange offer will be final and binding on all parties. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of initial notes must be cured within the time period we determine. Neither we, the exchange agent nor any other person will incur any liability or failure to give you notification of defects or irregularities with respect to tenders of your initial notes.

        By tendering, you will represent to us that:

32


        Under existing interpretations of the staff of the SEC contained in several no action letters to unrelated third parties, the exchange notes, including the related guarantees, would in general be freely transferable by their holders after the exchange offer without further registration under the Securities Act. However, any purchaser of initial notes who is our "affiliate," or is engaged in or intends to engage in or has an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution of the exchange notes to be acquired in the exchange offer:

        If the holder is not a broker-dealer, it will be required to represent that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the exchange notes. If the holder is a broker-dealer that will receive exchange notes for its own account in exchange for notes that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes.

        Any broker-dealer that acquired initial notes directly from us may not rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC, may not participate in the exchange offer, and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act (including being named as a selling securityholder) in connection with any resales of the initial notes.

        The SEC has taken the position that participating broker-dealers may fulfill their prospectus delivery requirements with respect to resales of the exchange notes with the prospectus contained in the registration statement. We have agreed, for a period of 180 days after consummation of the exchange offer to make available a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of any such exchange notes acquired.

Book-Entry Transfer

        We understand that the exchange agent will make a request within two business days after the date of this prospectus to establish accounts for the initial notes at DTC for the purpose of facilitating the exchange offer, and any financial institution that is a participant in DTC's system may make book-entry delivery of initial notes by causing DTC to transfer the initial notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC in accordance with DTC's procedures for transfer.

Acceptance of Initial Notes for Exchange; Delivery of Exchange Notes

        Upon satisfaction of all conditions to the exchange offer, we will accept, promptly after the expiration date, all initial notes properly tendered and will issue the exchange notes promptly after acceptance of the initial notes.

        For purposes of the exchange offer, we will be deemed to have accepted properly tendered initial notes for exchange when we have given oral or written notice of that acceptance to the exchange agent. For each initial note accepted for exchange, you will receive an exchange note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered initial note.

33



        In all cases, we will issue exchange notes for initial notes that we have accepted for exchange under the exchange offer only after the exchange agent timely receives:


        If we do not accept any tendered initial notes for any reason set forth in the terms of the exchange offer, we will credit the non-exchanged initial notes to your account maintained with DTC.

Withdrawal Rights

        You may withdraw your tender of initial notes at any time before the exchange offer expires.

        For a withdrawal to be effective, the exchange agent must receive a written or facsimile notice of withdrawal at its address listed below under "—Exchange Agent." A facsimile transmission notice of withdrawal that is received prior to receipt of a tender of initial notes sent by mail and postmarked prior to the date of the facsimile transmission of withdrawal will be treated as a withdrawn tender. The notice of withdrawal must identify the name and number of the DTC account to be credited, and otherwise comply with the procedures of DTC.

        We will determine in our sole discretion all questions as to the validity, form and eligibility, including time of receipt, of notices of withdrawal. Our determination will be final and binding on all parties. Any initial notes so withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for purposes of the exchange offer. The initial notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC for the initial notes. You may retender properly withdrawn initial notes by following one of the procedures described under "—Procedures for Tendering Initial Notes" at any time on or before the expiration date.

Fees and Expenses

        We will pay the expenses of the exchange offer. We will not make any payments to brokers, dealers or others soliciting acceptances of the exchange offer. We are making the principal solicitation by mail; however, our officers and employees may make additional solicitations by facsimile transmission, e-mail, telephone or in person. You will not be charged a service fee for the exchange of your initial notes, but we may require you to pay any transfer or similar government taxes in certain circumstances.

Transfer Taxes

        We will pay or cause to be paid any transfer taxes applicable to the exchange of initial notes pursuant to the exchange offer. If, however, payment is to be made to, or if exchange notes and/or substitute initial notes not exchanged are to be delivered to, or are to be registered or issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of the initial notes, or if tendered initial notes are registered in the name of any person other than the registered holder, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the transfer of initial notes to us pursuant to the exchange offer, the amount of any such transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder or any other persons) will be payable by you.

Accounting Treatment

        We will record the exchange notes in our accounting records at the same carrying values as the initial notes, which is the aggregate principal amount of the initial notes, as reflected in our accounting records on the date of exchange. Accordingly, we will not recognize any gain or loss for accounting purposes in connection with the exchange offer.

Resales of Exchange Notes

        Based on interpretations of the staff of the SEC set forth in no-action letters issued to unrelated third parties, we believe that exchange notes issued pursuant to this exchange offer in exchange for initial notes may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by any initial note holder without further registration under the Securities Act and without delivery of a prospectus that satisfies the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act if:

        Any holder who intends to participate in the exchange offer for the purpose of distributing the exchange notes may not rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC, may not participate in the exchange offer, and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resales if the exchange notes, unless such sale or transfer is made pursuant to an exemption from such requirements.

35



        This prospectus may be used for an offer to resell, resale or other transfer of exchange notes. With regard to broker-dealers, only broker-dealers that acquired the initial notes as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities may participate in the exchange offer. Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for initial notes, where the initial notes were acquired by the broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. By acknowledging that it will deliver a prospectus, the broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. See "Plan of Distribution" for more details regarding the transfer of exchange notes.

Consequences of Failure to Exchange Initial Notes

        Holders who desire to tender their initial notes in exchange for exchange notes registered under the Securities Act should allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery. Neither we nor the exchange agent is under any duty to give notification of defects or irregularities with respect to the tenders of initial notes for exchange.

        Initial notes that are not tendered or are tendered but not accepted will, following the consummation of the exchange offer, continue to be subject to the provisions in the indenture regarding the transfer and exchange of the initial notes and the existing restrictions on transfer set forth in the legend on the initial notes and in the offering memorandum, dated March 15, 2004, relating to the initial notes. Except in limited circumstances with respect to the specific types of holders of initial notes, we will have no further obligation to provide for the registration under the Securities Act of such initial notes. In general, initial notes, unless registered under the Securities Act, may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. We do not anticipate that we will take any action to register the untendered initial notes under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws. Upon completion of the exchange offer, holders of the initial notes will not be entitled to any further registration rights under the registration rights agreement, except under limited circumstances.

        Initial notes that are not exchanged in the exchange offer will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest and will be entitled to the rights and benefits their holders have under the indenture relating to the initial notes and the exchange notes. Holders of the exchange notes and any initial notes that remain outstanding after consummation of the exchange offer will vote together as a single class for purposes of determining whether holders of the requisite percentage of the class have taken certain actions or exercised certain rights under the indenture.

36




DESCRIPTION OF NOTES

        The exchange notes are identical in all material respect to the initial notes, except that the exchange notes will not contain certain of the transfer restrictions applicable to the initial notes, and the holders of the exchange notes will not have registration rights. The exchange notes will evidence the same debt as the initial notes, which they replace, and will be governed by the same indenture by and among us, certain of our affiliate guarantors as discussed below, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.

        The following is a summary of the material provisions of the Indenture. It does not restate that agreement, and we urge you to read the indenture in its entirety, which is filed as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 26, 2004, because it, and not this description, defines your rights as a noteholder. We will provide you with a copy of the indenture if you request one.

        Except as otherwise indicated, the following description relates to both the initial notes and the exchange notes, which are together referred to as the "notes." You can find the definitions of certain capitalized terms used in this description under the subheading "—Certain Definitions." The term "Issuer" as used in this section refers only to Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. and not to any of its Subsidiaries.

General

        The initial notes were issued in an aggregate principal amount of $200 million. The exchange notes will be issued in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the initial notes they replace. The notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Issuer and will mature on April 1, 2014. The notes will initially bear interest at a rate of 7% per annum, payable semiannually to holders of record at the close of business on the September 15 or the March 15, immediately preceding the interest payment date on October 1 and April 1 of each year, commencing October 1, 2004.

        Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the notes will be payable, and the notes may be exchanged or transferred in accordance with the terms of the indenture.

        The notes will be issued only in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 of principal amount and any integral multiple. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of notes, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable in connection with a registration of transfer.

        Subject to the covenants described below under "—Covenants" and applicable law, the Issuer may issue additional notes under the indenture on the same terms and conditions as the notes being offered hereby in an unlimited aggregate principal amount. The notes issued in this offering and any additional notes subsequently issued under the indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the indenture.

Guarantees and Subsidiary Guarantors

        The notes are guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by the Subsidiary Guarantors. The guarantees are unconditional regardless of the enforceability of the notes and the indenture.

        Each future Restricted Subsidiary that subsequently guarantees Indebtedness of the Issuer that ranks equally with or subordinate in right of payment to the notes will be required to execute a Subsidiary Guarantee. See "Covenants—Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees by Restricted Subsidiaries."

37



Optional Redemption

        Optional Redemption.    Except as described below, the Issuer does not have the right to redeem any notes prior to April 1, 2009. The notes will be redeemable at the option of the Issuer, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, on and after April 1, 2009, upon not less than 30 days' nor more than 60 days' notice, at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount thereof) if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing April 1 of the years indicated below, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date:

Year

  Redemption
Price

 
2009   103.500 %
2010   102.333 %
2011   101.167 %
2012 and thereafter   100.000 %

        Optional Redemption upon Equity Offerings.    At any time, or from time to time, on or prior to April 1, 2007, the Issuer may, at its option, use the Net Cash Proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings to redeem up to 35% of the principal amount of the notes issued under the indenture at a redemption price of 107% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of redemption; provided, however, that:


Selection and Notice of Redemption

        In the event that the Issuer chooses to redeem less than all of the notes, selection of the notes for redemption will be made by the trustee either:

        No notes of a principal amount of $1,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If a partial redemption is made with the proceeds of an Equity Offering, the trustee will select the notes only on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a pro rata basis as is practicable (subject to DTC procedures) unless such method is otherwise prohibited. Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of notes to be redeemed at its registered address. Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

Sinking Fund

        There will be no sinking fund payments for the notes.

Ranking

        The notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Issuer, and rank equally in right of payment with other unsecured senior Indebtedness of the Issuer. The notes are effectively subordinated to all of the Issuer's and the Issuer's consolidated Subsidiaries' secured Indebtedness and to all other Indebtedness of the non-guarantor Subsidiaries. The Issuer's secured Indebtedness only included our new senior

38



credit facility. In addition, for the twelve months ended March 31, 2004, we and our consolidated Subsidiaries would have had $10.0 million in borrowings outstanding under our new senior credit facility and $102.9 million available for borrowings under our new senior credit facility, all of which would be effectively senior to the notes to the extent of the value of the underlying assets.

53

        "Suspension Period" means any period:

        On each Reversion Date, all Indebtedness incurred during the Suspension Period prior to such Reversion Date will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Closing Date.

        For purposes of calculating the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under clause (C) of the first paragraph of the "—Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant, calculations under that clause will be made with reference to the Transaction Date, as set forth in that clause. Accordingly, (x) Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period not otherwise permitted pursuant to any of clauses (1) through (8) under the third paragraph under the "Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant will reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under clause (C) of the first paragraph of such covenant; provided, however, that the amount available to be made as a Restricted Payment on the Transaction Date will not be reduced to below zero solely as a result of such Restricted Payments, but may be reduced to below zero as a result of cumulative Funds from Operations for the purpose of the first bullet under clause (C) of the first paragraph of such covenant being a negative, and (y) the items specified in the first four bullets under clause (C) of the first paragraph of such covenant that occur during the Suspension Period will increase the amount available to be made as Restricted Payment under clause (C) of the first paragraph of such covenant. Any Restricted Payment made during the Suspension Period that are of the type described in the third paragraph of the "Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant (other than the Restricted Payment referred to in clause (2) of the such third paragraph or an exchange of Capital Stock for Capital Stock or Indebtedness referred to in clause (3) or (4) of such third paragraph), and the Net Cash Proceeds from any issuance of Capital Stock referred to in clauses (3) and (4) of the third paragraph of the "Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant will be included in calculating the amounts permitted to be incurred under such clause (C) on each Reversion Date.

        For purposes of the "—Limitation on Asset Sales" covenant, on each Reversion Date, the unutilized Excess Proceeds will be reset to zero.

Covenants

        The indenture contains, among others, the following covenants:

54


55


56


        For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of permitted Indebtedness described in clauses (A) through (G) of paragraph (4) above or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to paragraph (3) above, the Issuer will, in its sole discretion, classify (and may later reclassify) such item of Indebtedness and may divide and classify such Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described, except that Indebtedness incurred under the Line of Credit on the Closing Date will be deemed to have been incurred under clause (A) of paragraph (4) above.

        The Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will maintain Total Unencumbered Assets of not less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Unsecured Indebtedness of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

        The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(such payments or any other actions described in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively "Restricted Payments") if, at the time of, and after giving effect to, the proposed Restricted Payment:

57


        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution that is necessary to maintain the Issuer's status as a REIT under the Code if:

        The foregoing provisions will not be violated by reason of:

58


provided, however, that, except in the case of clauses (1) and (3), no Default or Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing or occur as a direct consequence of the actions or payments set forth therein.

        Each Restricted Payment permitted pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph (other than the Restricted Payment referred to in clause (2) of the immediately preceding paragraph or an exchange of Capital Stock for Capital Stock or Indebtedness referred to in clause (3) or (4) of the immediately preceding paragraph), and the Net Cash Proceeds from any issuance of Capital Stock referred to in clauses (3) and (4) of the immediately preceding paragraph, will be included in calculating whether the conditions of clause (C) of the first paragraph of this "Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant have been met with respect to any subsequent Restricted Payments.

        The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction of any kind on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

59


        The foregoing provisions will not restrict any encumbrances or restrictions:

60


        Nothing contained in this "Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries" covenant will prevent the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary from restricting the sale or other disposition of property or assets of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that secure Indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

        The Issuer will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to Guarantee any Indebtedness of the Issuer which ranks equally with or subordinate in right of payment to the notes ("Guaranteed Indebtedness"), unless:

provided, however, that this paragraph will not be applicable to any Guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not Incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. If the Guaranteed Indebtedness:

        Any Subsidiary Guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary may provide by its terms that it will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon:


        The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into, renew or extend any transaction (including, without limitations, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or assets, or the rendering of any service) with any holder (or any Affiliate of such holder) of 5% or more of any class of Capital Stock of the Issuer or with any Affiliate of the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, except upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary than could be obtained, at the time of such transaction or, if such transaction is pursuant to a written agreement, at the time of the execution of the agreement providing therefor, in a comparable arm's-length transaction with a Person that is not such a holder or an Affiliate.

61


        The foregoing limitation does not limit, and will not apply to:

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction or series of related transactions covered by the first paragraph of this "Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates" covenant and not covered by (2) through (6) of the immediately foregoing paragraph:

        The Issuer will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate any Asset Sale, unless:

        In the event and to the extent that the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary from one or more Asset Sales occurring on or after the Closing Date in any period of 12 consecutive months exceed 5% of Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (determined as of the date closest to the commencement of such 12-month period for which a consolidated balance sheet of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries has been filed with the SEC or provided to the

62



Trustee pursuant to the "SEC Reports and Reports to Holders" covenant), then the Issuer will or will cause the relevant Restricted Subsidiary to:

        The amount of such excess Net Cash Proceeds required to be applied (or to be committed to be applied) during such 12-month period as set forth in clause (1) of the preceding sentence and not applied as so required by the end of such period will constitute "Excess Proceeds." If, as of the first day of any calendar month, the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds not previously subject to an Offer to Purchase pursuant to this "Limitation on Asset Sales" covenant totals at least $10 million, the Issuer must commence, not later than the fifteenth Business Day of such month, and consummate an Offer to Purchase from the holders of the notes and, to the extent required by the terms of any Pari Passu Indebtedness, to all holders of such Pari Passu Indebtedness on a pro rata basis an aggregate principal amount of notes (and Pari Passu Indebtedness) equal to the Excess Proceeds on such date, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes (and Pari Passu Indebtedness), plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to the Payment Date.

Repurchase of Notes upon a Change of Control

        The Issuer must commence, within 30 days of the occurrence of a Change of Control, and consummate an Offer to Purchase for all notes then outstanding, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to the Payment Date.

        There can be no assurance that the Issuer will have sufficient funds available at the time of any Change of Control to make any debt payment (including repurchases of notes) required by the foregoing covenant (as well as any covenant that may be contained in other securities of the Issuer that might be outstanding at the time). The above covenant requiring the Issuer to repurchase the notes will, unless consents are obtained, require the Issuer to repay all indebtedness then outstanding which by its terms would prohibit such note repurchase, either prior to or concurrently with such note repurchase.

SEC Reports and Reports to Holders

        Whether or not the Issuer is then required to file reports with the SEC, the Issuer will file with the SEC all such reports and other information as it would be required to file with the SEC by Sections 13 (a) or 15 (d) under the Exchange Act if it was subject thereto; provided, however, that, if filing such documents by the Issuer with the SEC is not permitted under the Exchange Act, the Issuer will provide such documents to the trustee and upon written request supply copies of such documents

63



to any prospective holder. The Issuer will supply the trustee and each holder or will supply to the trustee for forwarding to each such holder, without cost to such holder, copies of such reports and other information.

Events of Default

        Events of Default under the indenture include the following:

64


        If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) above that occurs with respect to the Issuer) occurs and is continuing under the indenture, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer (and to the trustee if such notice is given by the holders), may, and the trustee at the request of the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding will, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the notes to be immediately due and payable. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest will be immediately due and payable. In the event of a declaration of acceleration because an Event of Default set forth in clause (5) above has occurred and is continuing, such declaration of acceleration will be automatically rescinded and annulled if the event of default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (5) will be remedied or cured by the Issuer or the relevant Significant Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 60 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto.

        If an Event or Default specified in clause (7) or (8) above occurs with respect to the Issuer, the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the notes then outstanding will automatically become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holder. The holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes by written notice to the Issuer and to the trustee, may waive all past defaults and rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration and its consequences if:

        As to the waiver of defaults, see "—Modification and Waiver."

        The holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee. However, the trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the indenture, that may involve the trustee in personal liability, or that the trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of holders of notes

65



not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from holders of notes. A holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to the indenture or the notes unless:

        However, such limitations do not apply to the right of any holder of a note to receive payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, such note or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the due date expressed in the notes, which right will not be impaired or affected without the consent of the holder.

        The indenture requires certain officers of the Issuer to certify, on or before a date not more than 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, that a review has been conducted of the activities of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries and of its performance under the indenture and that the Issuer has fulfilled all obligations thereunder, or, if there has been a default in fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default and the nature and status thereof. The Issuer will also be obligated to notify the trustee of any default or defaults in the performance of any covenants or agreements under the indenture.

Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets

        The Issuer will not consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially of its property and assets (as an entirety or substantially an entirety in one transaction or a series of related transactions) to, any Person or permit any Person to merge with or into the Issuer unless:

66


Defeasance

        The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have its obligations and the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors discharged with respect to the outstanding notes ("Legal Defeasance"). Legal Defeasance means that the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees, and the indenture will cease to be of further effect as to all outstanding notes and Subsidiary Guarantees, except as to:

        In addition, the Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have its obligations and the obligations if the Subsidiary Guarantors released with respect to most of the covenants under the indenture, except as described otherwise in the indenture ("Covenant Defeasance"), and thereafter any omission to comply with such obligations will not constitute a Default. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs, certain Events of Default (not including non-payment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events) will no longer apply. Covenant Defeasance will not be effective until such bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events no longer apply. The Issuer may exercise its Legal Defeasance option regardless of whether it previously exercised Covenant Defeasance.

        In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

67


        If the funds deposited with the trustee to effect Covenant Defeasance are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the notes when due, then the Issuer's obligations and the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under the indenture will be revived and no such defeasance will be deemed to have occurred.

Satisfaction and Discharge

        The indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights or registration of transfer or exchange of the notes, as expressly provided for in the indenture) as to all outstanding notes when:

68


Modification and Waiver

        Subject to certain limited exceptions, modifications and amendments of the indenture may be made by the Issuer and the trustee with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of each holder affected thereby:

No Personal Liability of Incorporators, Stockholders, Officers, Directors, or Employees

        The indenture provides that no recourse for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the notes or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Issuer in the indenture, or in any of the notes or because of the creation of any Indebtedness represented thereby, will be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, employee or controlling person of the Issuer or the Subsidiary Guarantors or of any successor Person thereof. Each holder, by accepting the notes, waives and releases all such liability.

Concerning the Trustee

        The indenture provides that, except during the continuance of a Default, the trustee will not be liable, except for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth in the indenture. If an

69



Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the trustee will use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise of the rights and powers vested in it under the indenture as a prudent person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs.

        The indenture and provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 incorporated by reference into the indenture contain limitations on the rights of the trustee, should it become a creditor of the Issuer, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases or to realize on certain property received by it in respect of any such claims, as security or otherwise. The trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions; provided, however, that if it acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate such conflict or resign.

Transfer and Exchange

        Holders of the notes may transfer or exchange the notes in accordance with the indenture. The trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and the Issuer may require a holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the indenture. The Issuer is not required to transfer or exchange any note selected for redemption and is not required to transfer or exchange any note for a period of 15 days before a selection of notes to be redeemed.

        The initial notes were issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act and are subject to certain restrictions on transfer described in the indenture, which are not applicable to the exchange notes.

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

        The following discussion is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to the exchange of initial notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer. The discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, U.S. Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, Internal Revenue Service rulings and pronouncements and judicial decisions now in effect, all of which are subject to change at any time. Any such change may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect a holder of the notes. The Internal Revenue Service may take positions contrary to those taken in this discussion, and no ruling from the Internal Revenue Service has been or will be sought.

        This discussion does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant either to a holder in light of such holder's particular circumstances or to holders subject to special treatment under the Code, such as certain financial institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, United States expatriates, insurance companies, dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities, life insurance companies, regulated investment companies, foreign corporations, nonresident aliens, holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, tax-exempt organizations and persons holding the notes as part of a "straddle," "hedge," "conversion transaction" or other integrated transaction. Moreover, neither the effect of any applicable state, local or foreign tax laws nor the possible application of federal estate and gift taxation or the alternative minimum tax is discussed. The discussion deals only with the notes held by investors as "capital assets" within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, held for investment). If a partnership or other entity taxable as a partnership holds the notes, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Such partner should consult its tax advisor as to the tax consequences of the partnership exchanging initial notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer. In addition, this discussion is limited to holders that purchased initial notes for cash at original issue and at their "issue price" within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code (i.e., the first price at which a substantial amount of notes are sold to the public for cash).

        We believe that the exchange of the initial notes for the exchange notes, which are debt securities identical to the initial notes, but registered under the Securities Act, pursuant to the exchange offer will not constitute a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, we believe that (1) a holder will not recognize taxable gain or loss as a result of exchanging such holder's initial notes for exchange notes; (2) the holding period of the exchange notes received by the holder should include the holding period of such holder's initial notes; and (3) the adjusted tax basis of the exchange notes received should be the same as the adjusted tax basis of the initial notes exchanged therefore immediately before the exchange.

        EACH HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH REGARD TO THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF EXCHANGING INITIAL NOTES FOR EXCHANGE NOTES, IN LIGHT OF SUCH HOLDER'S OWN PARTICULAR TAX SITUATION, INCLUDING THE APPLICATION OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN OR OTHER TAX LAWS, INCLUDING GIFT AND ESTATE TAX LAWS.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

        If you are a broker-dealer and hold initial notes for your own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and you receive exchange notes in exchange for initial notes in the exchange offer, then you may be a statutory underwriter and must acknowledge that you will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of these exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for initial notes where such initial notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. Unless you are a broker-dealer, you must acknowledge that you are not engaged in, do not intend to engage in, and have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution of exchange notes. We have agreed, for a period of 180 days after consummation of the exchange offer to make available a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of any such exchange notes acquired.

        Neither we nor any subsidiary guarantor will receive any proceeds in connection with the exchange offer or any sale of exchange notes by broker-dealers. Exchange notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the exchange notes or a combination of these methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealers or the purchasers of any such exchange notes. Any broker-dealer that resells exchange notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer and any broker-dealer that participates in a distribution of such exchange notes may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any such resale of exchange notes and any commissions or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. By acknowledging that it will deliver a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. See "The Exchange Offer—Resales of Exchange Notes."

        For a period of 180 days after consummation of the exchange offer we will make available a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of exchange notes. We have agreed to pay all expenses incident to our obligations in connection with the exchange offer, other than commissions and concessions of any broker dealer and, in certain instances any transfer taxes, and will indemnify the holders of initial notes, including any broker-dealers, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS

Item 20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

        The articles of incorporation and bylaws of the registrant provide for indemnification of directors and officers to the full extent permitted by Maryland law.

        Section 2-418 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland generally permits indemnification of any director or officer with respect to any proceedings unless it is established that: (a) the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and was either committed in bad faith or the result of active or deliberate dishonesty; (b) the director or officer actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or (c) in the case of a criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. The indemnity may include judgments, penalties, fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses actually incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceedings. However, a corporation may not indemnify a director or officer who shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, or who instituted a proceeding against the corporation (unless such proceeding was brought to enforce the charter, bylaws, or the indemnification provisions thereunder) The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create a presumption that the director or officer did not meet the requisite standard of conduct required for permitted indemnification. The termination of any proceeding by conviction, or plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, creates a rebuttable presumption that the director or officer did not meet that standard of conduct.

        The company has also entered into indemnity agreements with the officers and directors of the company that provide that the company will, subject to certain conditions, pay on behalf of the indemnified party any amount which the indemnified party is or becomes legally obligated to pay because of any act or omission or neglect or breach of duty, including any actual or alleged error or misstatement or misleading statement, which the indemnified party commits or suffers while acting in the capacity as an officer or director of the company. Once an initial determination is made by the company that a director or officer did not act in bad faith or for personal benefit, the indemnification provisions contained in the charter, bylaws, and indemnity agreements would require the company to advance any reasonable expenses incurred by the director or officer, and to pay the costs, judgments, and penalties determined against a director or officer in a proceeding brought against them.

        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is permitted to directors and officers of the registrant pursuant to the above-described provisions, the registrant understands that the Commission is of the opinion that such indemnification contravenes federal public policy as expressed in said act and therefore is unenforceable.
