(b) On September 23, 2006, Dr. Jaime Ludmir resigned from the Board of Directors of Integrated Healthcare Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), effective immediately.

(c) On September 28, 2006, the Board of Directors elected Dr. Ajay G. Meka to serve as a director of the Company to fill the vacancy on the Board created by Dr. Ludmir’s resignation. Dr. Meka was also elected Chairman of the Board of the Company, replacing Dr. Anil Shah as Chairman.

Dr. Meka, 56 years old, is a practicing physician in Orange County, California. He has been a licensed physician in California since 1983 and is Board Certified in Internal Medicine. Dr. Meka received his medical degree from Guntur Medical College in Gunter, India. He performed his post graduate training at Brooklyn Jewish Hospital and Coney Island Hospital, both in Brooklyn, New York.

Dr. Meka is a co-manager and approximately 12% member of the Company’s largest shareholder, Orange County Physicians Investment Network, LLC (“OCPIN”). He is also an indirect owner of Pacific Coast Holdings Investments, LLC (“PCHI”), which leases to the Company certain of its hospital facilities pursuant to a Triple Net Lease dated March 7, 2005.

As previously disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company has engaged in various transactions since January 1, 2005 with OCPIN and PCHI. On January 28, 2005, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with OCPIN, pursuant to which OCPIN agreed to invest in the Company. On March 7, 2005, upon acquisition of the Company’s four hospital facilities, the Company transferred its rights to all of the fee interests in the hospital facilities to PCHI. On or about June 16, 2005, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Company extended certain of OCPIN’s financing commitments under the Stock Purchase Agreement. On or about October 31, 2005, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to the Stock Purchase Agreement, which further amended OCPIN’s financing commitments.
