         This amendment amends and supplements the information set forth in the
Statement on Schedule 13D filed on May 25, 2000, as amended on April 19, 2001,
September 20, 2001, October 29, 2001 and November 26, 2001 (as amended, the
"Statement") by the Reporting Persons.

ITEM 1.  SECURITY AND ISSUER.

         This amendment relates to the common stock, par value $0.10 (the
"Common Stock"), of Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (the "Company").

ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

         Item 3 is hereby amended to add the following at the end thereof:

         On February 21, 2002, Explorer and the Company consummated the
transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement, as described in Amendment
No. 3 to the Statement. In accordance with the Investment Agreement, the
Reporting Persons purchased 10,720,656 shares of Common Stock for $31,304,315
and entered into an Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement and an Amended
and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, as described in Amendment No. 3 to
the Statement. The source of funds for Explorer's purchase of shares of Common
Stock was the Reporting Persons' working capital, which was derived from capital
contributions from its partners.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Item 5(a) is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:

(a)      Each of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns 28,049,226 shares of
         Common Stock, an amount which includes 16,774,720 shares of Common
         Stock owned by virtue of Explorer's ownership of 1,048,420 shares of
         Series C Preferred. Based on the number of shares of Common Stock
         reported to be outstanding as of January 24, 2002, such shares would
         represent 52.0% of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock,
         after giving effect to the conversion of the Series C Preferred and the
         issuance of common stock pursuant to the rights offering completed by
         the Company on February 21, 2002. Explorer beneficially owns such
         shares directly and each of the other Reporting Persons beneficially
         own such shares indirectly through the relationships described in the
         Statement. Messrs. McNamara and Decker disclaim beneficial ownership
         of all shares held by Explorer.

         Item 5(c) is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:

(c)      The response to Item 3 is incorporated by reference.

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS

Exhibits D and E to Amendment No. 3 to the Statement are amended and restated
by Exhibits A and B attached hereto.

Exhibit A -    Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement
