NOTE 18 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

Gulf Coast Subordinated Debt

In August 2021, we filed suit in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County (the “Court”) against the holders of certain Subordinated Debt (the “Debt Holders”) associated with our Gulf Coast master lease agreement, following an assertion by the Debt Holders that our prior exercise of offset rights in connection with Gulf Coast’s non-payment of rent had resulted in defaults under the terms of the Subordinated Debt. The suit seeks a declaratory judgment to, among other items, declare that the aggregate amount of unpaid rent due from Gulf Coast under the master lease agreement exceeds all amounts which otherwise would be due and owing by an indirect subsidiary of Omega (“Omega Obligor”) under the Subordinated Debt, and that all principal and interest due and owing under the Subordinated Debt may be (and was) offset in full as of December 31, 2021. In October 2021, the Debt Holders filed a motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction. On November 3, 2022, the Court granted the Debt Holders’ motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction, and Omega filed a timely appeal of the ruling. While Omega believes Omega Obligor is entitled to the enforcement of the offset rights sought in the action, Omega cannot predict the outcome of the declaratory judgment action, irrespective of whether (a) it is ultimately litigated in the Court if Omega Obligor prevails in its appeal or (b) if the order granting the motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction is affirmed and the issues are litigated in the Delaware Court (as defined below).

On or about January 19, 2023, the Debt Holders served a lawsuit against the Omega Obligor in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Court”), asserting claims for (i) breach of the instruments evidencing the Subordinated Debt, (ii) declaratory judgment, and (iii) unjust enrichment, all claims that are factually based on the claims that are the subject of Omega Obligor’s suit in the Court and that are now on appeal. On February 8, 2023, Omega Obligor filed a motion to dismiss or, in the alternative, to stay this action pending the outcome of the above-referenced lawsuit in Maryland. On July 10, 2023, the Delaware state court case stayed the proceeding pending further developments in the Maryland litigation. In July 2025, the Delaware state court requested that Omega file an answer to the lawsuit by August 19, 2025 while allowing the stay to remain in place, subject to further orders of the court. Omega believes that the claims are baseless and is evaluating procedural and substantive legal options in connection with this recently lawsuit to the extent the stay is lifted.

Other

In addition to the matters above, we are subject to various other legal proceedings, claims and other actions arising out of the normal course of business. While any legal proceeding or claim has an element of uncertainty, management believes that the outcome of each lawsuit, claim or legal proceeding that is pending or threatened, or all of them combined, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Indemnification Agreements

In connection with certain facility transitions, we have agreed to indemnify certain operators in certain events. As of June 30, 2025, our maximum funding commitment under these indemnification agreements was $8.4 million. Claims under these indemnification agreements generally may be made within 18 months to 72 months of the transition date. These indemnification agreements were provided to certain operators in connection with facility transitions and generally would be applicable if the prior operators do not perform under their transition agreements.

Commitments

We have committed to fund the construction of new leased and mortgaged facilities, capital improvements and other commitments. We expect the funding of these commitments to be completed over the next several years. Our remaining commitments at June 30, 2025, are outlined in the table below (in thousands):
