RE:  Certain United States Federal Income Tax Matters

Ladies and Gentlemen:

You have requested our opinion concerning certain United States federal income tax considerations in connection with the offer (the “Exchange Offer”) by Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), to exchange up to $400,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s registered 5 7/8% Senior Notes due 2024 for an equal aggregate principal amount of its existing 5 7/8% Senior Notes due 2024 issued and outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”). We have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with, and have participated in the preparation of, the Registration Statement.

In rendering our opinion, we have examined and relied on originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of (i) the Articles of Incorporation, the Articles of Amendment, Articles of Amendment and Restatement, and Articles Supplementary thereto, of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (ii) the Registration Statement, and (iii) such other documents, certificates, and records as we have deemed necessary or appropriate.  We also have relied upon factual statements and representations made to us by representatives of the Company and others that are set forth in a certificate executed and provided to us by the Company (the “Officer’s Certificate”).  With respect to the ownership of stock of the Company for certain periods prior to March 8, 2004, we also have relied on a letter from Explorer Holdings, L.P., regarding the ownership of stock of the Company by Explorer Holdings, L.P., Explorer Holdings Level II, L.P., and Hampstead Investment Partners III, L.P.  For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed the validity and accuracy of the documents, certificates and records set forth above, and that the statements and representations made therein are and will remain true and complete.  We also have assumed that the Registration Statement and such other documents, certificates and records and that the statements as to factual matters contained in the Registration Statement are true, correct and complete and will continue to be true, correct and complete through the completion of the transactions contemplated therein.  For purposes of this Opinion, we have not, however, assumed the correctness of any statement to the effect that the Company qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

In our examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity with authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies or by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission, or which we obtained from the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval system (“EDGAR”) or other sites maintained by a court or government authority or regulatory body, and the authenticity of the originals or such latter documents. If any document we examined in printed, word processed or similar form has been filed with the Commission on EDGAR or such court or governmental authority or regulatory body, we have assumed that the document so filed is identical to the document we examined except for formatting changes.  In making our examination of documents executed, or to be executed, by the parties indicated therein, we have assumed that each party (other than the Company) has, or will have, the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and we have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and the execution and delivery by such parties and the validity and binding effect thereof on such parties.  All of the documents we have reviewed will be complied with without waiver.  Finally, in connection with the opinions rendered below, we have assumed that during its taxable year ended December 31, 1992 and in each subsequent taxable year to present, the Company has operated and will continue to operate in such a manner that makes and will continue to make the representations contained in the Officer’s Certificate true for each of such years, as of the date hereof, and any representation made as a belief, made “to the knowledge of,” or made in a similarly qualified manner is true, correct, and complete, as of the date hereof, without such qualification.

In rendering our opinion, we have considered the applicable provisions of the Code, Treasury Department regulations promulgated thereunder, pertinent judicial authorities, interpretive rulings of the Internal Revenue Service and such other authorities as we have considered relevant, all in effect as of the date hereof.  It should be noted that statutes, regulations, judicial decisions and administrative interpretations are subject to change at any time (possibly with retroactive effect).  A change in the authorities or the accuracy or completeness of any of the information, documents, certificates, records, statements, representations, covenants, or assumptions on which our opinion is based could affect our conclusions.
