    The information set forth or incorporated by reference in Items 2 and 3 is hereby incorporated by reference.

    The purpose of the Voting Agreement is to facilitate the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. In order to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of D.R. Horton is required. Under the Voting Agreement, certain stockholders of D.R. Horton (the "Horton Stockholders") agreed to vote their Subject Shares in favor the Merger and the Merger Agreement and against any proposal for action or agreement that would result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of D.R. Horton under the Merger Agreement and against certain other proposals. Further, under the Voting Agreement, during the term of the Voting Agreement, the Horton Stockholders may not transfer, sell, assign, gift, pledge, hypothecate or dispose, whether directly or indirectly by contribution, distribution, dissolution or otherwise, any of the shares of D.R. Horton common stock subject to the Voting Agreement, except that the Horton Stockholders would be permitted to transfer shares of common stock to other Horton Stockholders who are subject to the Voting Agreement. The Voting Agreement provides that it will terminate on the earlier of (a) the effective time of the Merger, (b) termination of the Merger Agreement according to its terms or (c) the written mutual consent of the parties thereto.

    Upon consummation of the Merger, (a) the certificate of incorporation and the bylaws of the D.R. Horton will be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the surviving corporation, (b) the directors of D.R. Horton will be the directors of the surviving corporation and (c) the officers of D.R. Horton will be the officers of the surviving corporation. The Merger Agreement provides that D.R. Horton will use its best efforts to elect Mr. Schuler, current Co-Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Schuler Homes, to the board of directors and, contemporaneous with the signing of the Merger Agreement, D.R. Horton entered into agreements with Mr. Schuler and Craig A. Manchester, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Schuler Homes, providing that, upon consummation of the Merger, Mr. Schuler will become a Senior Vice President of D.R. Horton and President of its Schuler Homes region and Mr. Manchester will become a Vice President of D.R. Horton and Chief Operating Officer of its Schuler Homes region.

    Schuler Homes does not have any right to dispose of (or the direct the disposition of) the shares of D.R. Horton common stock subject to the Voting Agreement. Accordingly, Schuler Homes expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of all such shares.

Item 5.  Interest In Securities Of The Issuer.

    The information set forth or incorporated by reference in Items 2, 3 and 4 is hereby incorporated by reference.

    The aggregate number of shares of D.R. Horton common stock covered by the Voting Agreement is 12,271,993, representing approximately 16.0% of the shares of D.R. Horton common stock outstanding as of October 22, 2001, based on the representations of D.R. Horton contained in the Merger Agreement. The names and business addresses of the parties to the Voting Agreement and the number of outstanding shares of D.R. Horton common stock held by each such party (beneficially and of record) and subject to the Voting Agreement are also set forth on Schedule I thereto and are incorporated herein by reference. To the best of Schuler Homes' knowledge, during the last five years,

none of the parties to the Voting Agreement have been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or have been a party to any civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction that, as a result of such proceeding, subjected D.R. Horton to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining D.R. Horton from future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or State securities laws or finding any violations with respect to such laws.

    By virtue of the Voting Agreement Schuler Homes may be deemed to share with the Horton Stockholders the power to vote, and to have the power to restrict the Horton Stockholders' disposition of, the shares of D.R. Horton common stock subject to the Voting Agreement. Schuler Homes, however, is not entitled to any other rights as a stockholder of D.R. Horton as to the shares of D.R. Horton common stock covered by the Voting Agreement and expressly disclaims any beneficial ownership of the shares of D.R. Horton common stock subject to the Voting Agreement.

    Other than as set forth in this Schedule 13D, to the best knowledge of Schuler Homes, as of the date hereof, (i) neither Schuler Homes nor any subsidiary or affiliate of Schuler Homes nor any of Schuler Homes' executive officers or directors, beneficially owns any shares of D.R. Horton common stock and (ii) there have been no transactions in the shares of D.R. Horton common stock effected during the past 60 days by Schuler Homes, nor to the best of Schuler Homes' knowledge, by any subsidiary or affiliate of Schuler Homes or any of Schuler Homes' executive officers or directors.

    References to the Voting Agreement are qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, which has been filed as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect To Securities of the Issuer.

    Except as described elsewhere in this Schedule 13D, Schuler Homes has no other contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of D.R. Horton, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect (i) by the written mutual consent of the parties hereto, (ii) upon termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, or (iii) automatically and without any required action of the parties hereto upon the Effective Time. No such termination of this Agreement shall relieve any party hereto from any liability for any breach of this Agreement prior to termination.

    SECTION 3.3. Further Assurance. From time to time, at another party's request and without consideration, each party hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be necessary or desirable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

    SECTION 3.4. Certain Events. Each Stockholder agrees that this Agreement and such Stockholder's obligations hereunder shall attach to such Stockholder's Subject Shares and shall be binding upon any person or entity to which legal or beneficial ownership of such Subject Shares shall pass, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including such Stockholder's heirs, guardians, administrators, or successors. Notwithstanding any transfer of Subject Shares, the transferor shall remain liable for the performance of all its obligations under this Agreement.

    SECTION 3.5. No Waiver. The failure of any party hereto to exercise any right, power, or remedy provided under this agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other party hereto with its obligations hereunder, any custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms hereof shall not constitute a waiver by such party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy or to demand such compliance.

    SECTION 3.6. Specific Performance. Each Stockholder acknowledges that if such Stockholder fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement immediate and irreparable harm or injury would be caused to Schuler for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy. In such event, each Stockholder agrees that Schuler shall have the right, in addition to any other rights it may have, to specific performance of this Agreement. Accordingly, if Schuler should institute an action or proceeding seeking specific enforcement of the provisions hereof, each Stockholder hereby waives the

claim or defense that Schuler, as the case may be, has an adequate remedy at law and hereby agrees not to assert in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense that such a remedy at law exists. Each Stockholder further agrees to waive any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with obtaining any such equitable relief.
