Item 5.03     Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

(a)     Sun Healthcare Group, Inc. amended its Bylaws effective June 14, 2007 to adopt majority voting provisions for the election of its Board of Directors in uncontested elections. Previously, the Bylaws provided for the election of directors by a plurality of the votes cast in the election (the plurality provision will continue to apply if a director’s election is contested). The amendment requires each director who will be a nominee for election to submit a resignation before the meeting of stockholders at which the election will take place. If the director does not receive a majority of the votes cast, then the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors shall consider the facts and circumstances relating to the election and the resignation, and recommend to the Board of Directors whether such resignation should be accepted or rejected or whether other action should be taken. If the director receives at least a majority of the votes cast or if the Board of Directors does not accept the resignation, the resignation is not effective. The Board of Directors shall act on the resignation within ninety (90) days following certification of the election results, taking into account the committee’s recommendation, and publicly disclose its decision.

EXHIBIT 3.1


FIRST AMENDMENT TO BYLAWS
(effective June 14, 2007)

Section 1.7 of the Sun Healthcare Group, Inc. Bylaws is amended and restated as follows:


Section 1.7. Voting; Proxies. (a) Except as otherwise provided by or pursuant to the provisions of the certificate of incorporation, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock held by such stockholder which has voting power upon the matter in question. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the Secretary of the corporation a revocation of the proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date. Voting at meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot.

(b) Except as otherwise provided by the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws, each director shall be elected by the vote of a majority of the votes cast with respect to that director’s election at any meeting for the election of directors at which a quorum is present. If, however, as of the tenth day preceding the date the corporation first mails its notice of meeting for such meeting to the stockholders, the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected (a “Contested Election”), the directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast. For purposes of this Section 1.7, a majority of the votes cast means that the number of votes cast “for” a nominee must exceed the number of votes cast “against” in respect of that nominee (with “abstentions” and “broker non-votes” not counted as a vote cast either “for” or “against”).

(c) In order for any incumbent director to become a nominee of the Board of Directors for further service on the Board of Directors, such person must submit an irrevocable resignation, provided that such resignation shall be effective only if (i) that person shall not receive a majority of the votes cast in an election that is not a Contested Election, and (ii) the Board of Directors shall accept that resignation in accordance with the policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Directors for such purpose. If a nominee who is an incumbent director does not receive a majority of the votes cast in an election that is not a Contested Election, the Nominating and Governance Committee shall consider the facts and circumstances relating to the election and the resignation, and recommend to the Board of Directors, within sixty (60) days following certification of the election results, whether such resignation should be accepted or rejected or whether other action should be taken. The Board of Directors shall act on the resignation within ninety (90) days following certification of the election results, taking into account the committee’s recommendation, and publicly disclose (by a press release and filing an appropriate disclosure with the Securities and Exchange Commission) its decision 

 
regarding the resignation. The committee in making its recommendation and the Board of Directors in making its decision each may consider any factors and other information that they consider appropriate and relevant.
 
(d) If the Board of Directors accepts a director’s resignation pursuant to this Section 1.7, or if a nominee for director is not elected and the nominee is not an incumbent director, then the Board of Directors may fill the resulting vacancy pursuant to Article EIGHTH of the certificate of incorporation or may decrease the size of the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 2.1 of these by-laws.

(e) All other elections and questions shall, unless otherwise provided by the certificate of incorporation, these by-laws, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the corporation, or applicable law or pursuant to any regulation applicable to the corporation or its securities, be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the corporation which are present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon.
