The exact stock prices and effective dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:

 

•

if the stock price is between two stock price amounts in the table or the effective date is between two effective dates in the table, the number of additional shares will be determined by straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock price amounts and the earlier and later effective dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;

 

•

if the stock price is in excess of $35.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate; and

 

•

if the stock price is less than $5.67 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the stock prices set forth in the column headings of the table above), no additional shares will be added to the conversion rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the total number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion exceed 176.3668 per $1,000 principal amount of notes, subject to adjustments in the same manner as the conversion rate as set forth under “—Conversion Rate Adjustments” in the Notes Prospectus Supplement.

Changes to Preliminary Prospectus Supplements

The Issuer is increasing the aggregate principal amount of notes that it is offering in the Notes Offering from $150 million to $220 million (assuming no exercise of the over-allotment option).

Common Stock Offering—Use of proceeds: As a result of the change in the offering price of the common stock from the price assumed in the Common Stock Prospectus Supplement, the language set forth under the heading “Use of proceeds” on page S-23 of the Common Stock Prospectus Supplement is hereby superseded by the following:

We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the sale of the shares will be approximately $67 million, or $77 million if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full (in each case, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and fees and expenses of the offering). We intend to use the net proceeds from the Common Stock Offering for general corporate purposes, including land acquisition and development, home construction and other related purposes.

Notes Offering—Use of proceeds: As a result of the increase in the size of the Notes Offering, the language set forth under the heading “Use of proceeds” on page S-32 of the Notes Prospectus Supplement is hereby superseded by the following:

We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the sale of the notes will be approximately $213 million, or $245 million if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full (in each case, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and fees and expenses of the offering). We intend to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering for general corporate purposes, including land acquisition and development, home construction and other related purposes.

Capitalization: As a result of the increase in the size of the Notes Offering and the change in the offering price of the common stock from the price assumed in the Common Stock Prospectus Supplement and the Notes Prospectus Supplement, the language set forth under the heading “Capitalization” on page S-24 of the Common Stock Prospectus Supplement and page S-33 of the Notes Prospectus Supplement is hereby superseded by the following:

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of June 30, 2012:

 

•

on an actual basis;

 

•

on an adjusted basis solely to reflect the issuance of the 12,500,000 shares of our common stock offered in the Common Stock Offering at a public offering price of $5.67 per share (assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option for the Common Stock Offering);

 

•

on an adjusted basis solely to reflect the completion of the Notes Offering of $220,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 1 1/4% Senior Convertible Notes due 2032 (assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option for the Notes Offering); and

 

•

on a further adjusted basis to reflect the completion of both the Common Stock Offering and the Notes Offering (in each case assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option).

Neither the Common Stock Offering nor the Notes Offering is contingent on the completion of the other.

Homebuilding Indebtedness: As a result of the increase in the size of the Notes Offering, the following financial items presented under the headings “Summary,” “Risk factors” and “Description of notes” in the Notes Prospectus Supplement and under the heading “Risk factors” in the Common Stock Prospectus Supplement are hereby supplemented and superseded by the following:

As of June 30, 2012, the principal amount of our homebuilding debt outstanding was $1,334.3 million (excluding indebtedness relating to our mortgage banking operation and letter of credit facilities of our Unrestricted Subsidiaries, as defined in the Notes Prospectus Supplement under “Description of notes—Certain Definitions”), including $4.9 million of secured indebtedness. Assuming we had consummated the Notes Offering as of such date, the principal amount of our homebuilding debt would have been approximately $1,554.3 million (including the notes, but excluding indebtedness relating to our mortgage banking operation and letter of credit facilities of our Unrestricted Subsidiaries, as defined in the Notes Prospectus Supplement under “Description of notes—Certain Definitions”), $4.9 million of which would be secured and effectively senior to the notes and $39.6 million of which would be subordinated to the notes.

Additional conforming changes are made throughout the Common Stock Prospectus Supplement and the Notes Prospectus Supplement to reflect the increase in the size of the Notes Offering and the change in the offering price of the common stock from the price assumed in the Common Stock Prospectus Supplement and the Notes Prospectus Supplement.
