PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Pulte Homes, Inc.

     Pulte Homes, Inc. is a publicly held holding company whose subsidiaries engage in the homebuilding and financial services businesses. Our assets consist principally of the capital stock of our subsidiaries, cash and investments. Our income primarily consists of dividends from our subsidiaries and interest on investments. Our direct subsidiaries include Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc., Del Webb Corporation (Del Webb) and other subsidiaries engaged in the homebuilding business. Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc.’s operating subsidiaries include Pulte Home Corporation, Pulte International Corporation (International) and other subsidiaries engaged in the homebuilding business. Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc.’s non-operating thrift subsidiary, First Heights Bank, fsb (First Heights), is classified as a discontinued operation (see Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). We also have a mortgage banking company, Pulte Mortgage LLC (Pulte Mortgage), which is a subsidiary of Pulte Home Corporation.

     We have two reportable business segments, Homebuilding and Financial Services, and one non-operating segment, Corporate. The Homebuilding segment consists of the following two business units:

    Domestic Homebuilding, our core business, is engaged in the acquisition and development of land principally for residential purposes within the continental United States and the construction of housing on such land targeted for the first-time, first and second move-up, and active adult home buyers.
 
    International Homebuilding is primarily engaged in the acquisition and development of land principally for residential purposes, and the construction of housing on such land in Mexico, Puerto Rico and Argentina.

     The Financial Services segment consists principally of mortgage banking and title operations conducted through Pulte Mortgage and other subsidiaries.

     Corporate is a non-operating segment that supports the operations of our subsidiaries by acting as the internal source of financing, developing and implementing strategic initiatives centered on new business development and operating efficiencies, and providing the administrative support associated with being a publicly traded entity listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

     Financial information, including revenue, pre-tax income and total assets of each of our business segments is included in Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note:   Homebuilding settlement revenues of affiliates, not included in the table above, for the years ended December 31, 2003 through 1999 were $32,511, $40,723, $180,621, $148,798, and $162,926, respectively. Homebuilding unit settlements of affiliates, not included in the table above, for the years ended December 31, 2003 through 1999 were 149, 1,022, 7,258, 7,718, and 6,791, respectively.

     Settlements (home sales) and net new orders (orders for homes net of cancellations) in any year are strongly influenced by local, regional and national market economic conditions. Backlog (homes that have been ordered but not completed and sold) at any period is strongly influenced by local, regional and national market economic conditions.

Domestic Homebuilding

     We build a wide variety of homes, including single family detached units, townhouses, condominiums and duplexes, with varying prices, models, options and lot sizes. Since 1990, we have more than quadrupled our annual unit closings, unit orders and unit backlog levels. Including 2003 settlements of nearly 33,000 homes, we have closed more than 370,000 homes since our inception.

     On July 31, 2001, we merged with Del Webb in a tax-free stock-for-stock transaction. Del Webb was primarily a homebuilder with operations in seven states. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001, Del Webb reported net income of $91.2 million on revenues of $1.9 billion and 7,038 unit settlements. Backlog reported at June 30, 2001, was 3,682 units valued at approximately $994 million. This merger expanded and supported our leadership position. In particular, we believe the merger strengthened our position among active adult (55 and better) homebuyers, added important strategic land positions, provided operational savings from economies of scale, bolstered our purchasing leverage, and enhanced our overall competitive position. In accordance with our operational strategy, we will continue to evaluate available strategic acquisition opportunities that are consistent with our long-range goals.

     As of December 31, 2003, our Domestic Homebuilding operations offered homes for sale in 535 communities at sales prices ranging from $80,000 to $2,300,000. Sales prices of homes currently offered for sale in 75% of our communities fall within the range of $100,000 to $350,000 with a 2003 average unit selling price of $259,000. Sales of single-family detached homes, as a percentage of total unit sales, were 83% in 2003, 86% in 2002, and 82% in 2001. Our Domestic Homebuilding operations are geographically diverse and, as a result, better insulate us from demand changes in individual markets. As of December 31, 2003, our Domestic Homebuilding business operated in 44 markets spanning 27 states.

     As of December 31, 2003, our Domestic Homebuilding operations had 13,952 units in backlog valued at approximately $4.1 billion.

International Homebuilding

     Our International Homebuilding operations are principally conducted through subsidiaries of International in Mexico, Puerto Rico and Argentina. International Homebuilding product offerings focus on the demand of first-time buyers and middle-to-upper income consumer groups. Effective January 1, 2002, International reorganized its structure within Mexico to create a single company, Pulte Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V., which ranks as one of the largest builders in the country. Prior to the reorganization, these operations were conducted primarily through five joint ventures throughout Mexico. Under the new ownership structure, which combines the largest of these entities, we own 63.8% of Pulte Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. and have consolidated Pulte Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. into our financial statements.

     We are currently in the process of evaluating various long-term strategic alternatives with regard to our International operations.

Homebuilding Operations (continued)

Land acquisition and development

     We select locations for development of homebuilding communities after completing extensive market research, enabling us to match the location and product offering with our targeted consumer group. We consider factors such as proximity to developed areas, population and job growth patterns and, if applicable, estimated development costs. We historically have managed the risk of controlling our land positions through use of option contracts and outright acquisition. We typically control land with the intent to complete sales of housing units within 24 to 36 months from the date of opening a community, except in the case of certain active adult developments and our Del Webb operations for which the completion of community build out requires a longer time period due to typically larger project sizes. As a result, land is generally purchased after it is properly zoned and developed or is ready for development. In addition, we dispose of owned land not required in the business through sales to appropriate end users. Where we develop land, we engage directly in many phases of the development process, including land and site planning, obtaining environmental and other regulatory approvals, as well as constructing roads, sewers, water and drainage facilities and other amenities. We use our staff and the services of independent engineers and consultants for land development activities. Land development work is performed primarily by independent contractors and local government authorities who construct sewer and water systems in some areas. At December 31, 2003, we controlled approximately 257,000 lots, of which 120,000 were owned and 137,000 were under option agreements.

Sales and marketing

     We are dedicated to improving the quality and value of our domestic homes through innovative proprietary architectural and community designs and state-of-the-art customer marketing techniques. Analyzing various qualitative and quantitative data obtained through extensive market research, we segment our potential customers into well-defined buyer profiles. Segmentation analysis provides a method for understanding the business opportunities and risks across the full spectrum of consumer groups in each market. Once the demands of potential buyers are understood, we link our home design and community development efforts to the specific lifestyle of each targeted consumer group.

     To meet the demands of our various domestic customers, we have established a solid design expertise for a wide array of product lines. We believe that we are an innovator in the design of our homes and we view design capacity as an integral aspect of our marketing strategy. Our in-house architectural services teams and management, supplemented by outside consultants, are successful in creating distinctive design features, both in exterior facades and interior options and features. In certain markets our strategy is to offer “the complete house” in which all features shown in the home are included in the sales price. Standard features typically offered include vaulted ceilings, appliances, and a variety of available flooring and carpet.

     Typically, our domestic sales teams, together with outside sales brokers, are responsible for guiding the customer through the sales process. We are committed to industry-leading customer service through a variety of quality initiatives, including the customer care program, which ensures that homeowners are comfortable at every stage of the building process. Using a seven-step, interactive process, homeowners are kept informed during their homebuilding and home owning experience. The steps include (1) a pre-construction meeting with the superintendent; (2) pre-dry wall frame walk; (3) quality assurance inspection; (4) first homeowner orientation; (5) 30-day follow-up after the close of the home; (6) three-month follow-up; and (7) an 11-month quality list after the close of the home. Fully furnished and landscaped model homes are used to showcase our homes and their distinctive design features. We have great success with the first-time buyer in the low to moderate price range; in such cases, financing under United States Government-insured and guaranteed programs is often used and is facilitated through our mortgage company. We also enjoy strong sales to the move-up buyer and, in certain markets, offer semi-custom homes in higher price ranges.

     As a result of the Del Webb merger, we are better able to address the needs of active adults, the fastest growing homebuying segment. With destination communities offering highly amenitized products such as golf courses, recreational centers and educational classes, the active adult buyer has many options to maintain an active lifestyle.

Homebuilding Operations (continued)

Sales and marketing (continued)

     In 2003, our Dallas, Houston, Las Vegas, Minneapolis/St. Paul, San Francisco Bay Area, Phoenix, Raleigh/Durham, Sacramento, Southern California, Tampa, Tucson, and Palm Beach markets were recognized for ranking the highest in their markets in a national customer satisfaction study. The survey of twenty-one U. S. markets noted customer service and home readiness as the two factors that most heavily influenced the customer’s overall level of satisfaction. We ranked third or better in seventeen of the twenty-one markets surveyed. Building on this quality foundation is our brand development program with our “Three I’s on Quality” (Involvement, Integrity, and Innovation) platform. Developing the Pulte Homes brand and leveraging the strength of the “DiVosta,” “Del Webb” and “Sun City” tradenames helps to distinguish our communities from the competition, and can often be rewarded with the advantages of additional sales pace, choice community locations, and reduced overall customer acquisition costs.

     In addition, our Homeowner for Life™ strategy and philosophy has increased our business from those who have previously owned a Pulte home or have been referred by a Pulte homeowner by ensuring a positive home buying and home owning experience. We introduce our homes to prospective buyers through a variety of media advertising, illustrated brochures, Internet listings and link placements, and other advertising displays. In addition, our websites, www.pulte.com, www.delwebb.com, and www.divosta.com provide tools to help users find a home that meets their needs, investigate financing alternatives, communicate moving plans, maintain a home, learn more about us and communicate directly with us. Approximately three million potential customers visited our websites during 2003.

     Our international sales and marketing efforts focus on the identification of underserved market demand, particularly in Argentina and Puerto Rico, with strong emphasis on quality initiatives and customer service. In Mexico, where our product is focused largely on social interest housing, sales and marketing efforts target areas experiencing population and employment (industrialization) growth.

Construction

     The construction process for our domestic homes begins with the in-house design of the homes we sell. The building phase is conducted under the supervision of our on-site construction superintendents. The construction work is usually performed by independent contractors under contracts that, in many instances, cover both labor and materials on a fixed-price basis. We believe that Pulte Preferred Partnerships (P3), an extension of our quality assurance program, continues to establish new standards for contractor relations. Using a selective process, we have teamed up with what we believe are premier contractors and suppliers to improve all aspects of the land development and house construction processes.

     We maintain efficient construction operations by using standard materials and components from a variety of sources and, when possible, by building on contiguous lots. To minimize the effects of changes in construction costs, the contracting and purchasing of building supplies and materials generally is negotiated at or near the time when related sales contracts are signed. In addition, we leverage our size by actively negotiating our materials needs on a national or regional basis to minimize production component cost. We are also working to establish a more integrated system that can effectively link suppliers, contractors and the production schedule through various strategic business partnerships and e-business initiatives.

     Housing in Mexico and Puerto Rico consists primarily of reinforced poured concrete, concrete and ceramic block and/or brick construction with flat roofs and public water, electric and sanitary system connections. Our housing product in Argentina is designed and constructed in a similar fashion to our domestic product but is customized for local preferences. Building materials, supplies and components are sourced locally and the construction work is performed by general contractors and/or independent contractors, which in many cases include both labor and materials.

     We cannot determine the extent to which necessary building materials will be available at reasonable prices in the future and have, on occasion, experienced shortages of skilled labor in certain trades and of building materials in some markets.

Homebuilding Operations (continued)

Competition and other factors

     Our dedication to customer satisfaction is evidenced by our consumer and value-based brand approach to product development, and is something that we believe distinguishes us in the homebuilding industry and contributes to our long-term competitive advantage. The housing industry in the United States, however, is highly competitive. In each of our market areas, there are numerous homebuilders with which we compete. We also compete with the resales of existing house inventory. Any provider of housing units, for-sale or to rent, including apartment builders, may be considered a competitor. Conversion of apartments to condominiums further provides certain segments of the population an alternative to traditional housing, as does manufactured housing. We compete primarily on the basis of price, reputation, design, location and quality of our homes. The housing industry is affected by a number of economic and other factors including: (1) significant national and world events, which impact consumer confidence; (2) changes in interest rates; (3) changes in other costs associated with home ownership, such as property taxes and energy costs; (4) various demographic factors; (5) changes in federal income tax laws; (6) changes in government mortgage financing programs, and (7) availability of sufficient mortgage capacity. In addition to these factors, our business and operations could be affected by shifts in demand for new homes.

     Our operations are subject to building, environmental and other regulations of various federal, state, local and foreign governing authorities. For our homes to qualify for Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or Veterans Administration (VA) mortgages, we must satisfy valuation standards and site, material and construction requirements of those agencies. Our compliance with federal, state, local and foreign laws relating to protection of the environment has had, to date, no material effect upon capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position. More stringent requirements could be imposed in the future on homebuilders and developers, thereby increasing the cost of compliance.

Financial Services Operations

     We conduct our financial services business, which includes mortgage and title operations, through Pulte Mortgage and other subsidiaries.

Mortgage banking

     Our mortgage bank arranges financing through the origination of mortgage loans primarily for the benefit of our domestic homebuyers, but also services the general public. We also engage in the sale of such loans and the related servicing rights. We are a lender approved by the FHA and VA and are a seller/servicer approved by Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) and other investors. In our conventional mortgage lending activities we follow underwriting guidelines established by FNMA and FHLMC.

     Our mortgage underwriting, processing and closing functions are centralized in Denver, Colorado using a mortgage operations center (MOC) concept. We also use a centralized telephone loan officer concept where loan officers are centrally located at a mortgage application center (MAC) in Denver. Our sales representatives, who are the mortgage customers’ main contact, forward the loan applications to a MAC loan counselor who calls the customer to complete the loan application and then forwards it to the MOC for processing. We believe both the MOC and the MAC improve the speed and efficiency of our mortgage operations, thereby improving our profitability and allowing us to focus on creating attractive mortgage financing opportunities for our customers.

     In originating mortgage loans, we initially use our own funds and borrowings made available to us through various credit arrangements. Subsequently, we sell such mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities to outside investors.

     Our capture rate for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001 was approximately 83%, 78%, and 74%, respectively. Our capture rate represents loan originations from our homebuilding business as a percent of total loan opportunities, excluding cash settlements, from our homebuilding business. During the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, we originated mortgage loans for approximately 73%, 68% and 67%, respectively, of the homes we sold domestically. Such originations represented 83%, 85% and 81%, respectively, of our originations.

     We sell our servicing rights on a flow basis through fixed price servicing sales contracts to reduce the risks inherent in servicing loans. This strategy results in owning the servicing rights for only a short period of time, generally less than four months after the loan is originated, which substantially reduces the risk of impairment with respect to the fair value of these reported assets. The servicing sales contracts provide for the reimbursement of payments made when loans prepay within specified periods of time, usually 90 days after sale or securitization.

Financial Services Operations (continued)

Mortgage banking (continued)

     The mortgage industry in the United States is highly competitive. We compete with other mortgage companies and financial institutions to provide attractive mortgage financing to both our homebuyers and to the general public. The Internet is also an important resource for homebuyers in obtaining financing as a number of companies provide online approval for their customers. These Internet-based mortgage companies may also be considered competitors.

     In originating and servicing mortgage loans, we are subject to rules and regulations of the FHA, VA, GNMA, FNMA and FHLMC. In addition to being affected by changes in these programs, our mortgage banking business is also affected by several of the same factors that impact our homebuilding business.

Discontinued operations

     During the first quarter of 1994, we adopted a plan of disposal for First Heights and announced our strategy to exit the thrift industry and increase our focus on housing and related mortgage banking. First Heights sold all but one of its 32 bank branches and related deposits to two unrelated purchasers. The sale was substantially completed during the fourth quarter of 1994.

     Although in 1994, we expected to complete the plan of disposal within a reasonable period of time, contractual disputes with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) prevented the prepayment of the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation Resolution Fund (FRF) notes, thereby precluding us from completing the disposal in accordance with our original plan. To provide liquidity for the sale, First Heights liquidated its investment portfolios and its single-family residential loan portfolio and, as provided in the Assistance Agreement, entered into a Liquidity Assistance Note (LAN) with the FDIC acting in its capacity as manager of the FRF notes. The LAN was collateralized by the FRF notes. The LAN and FRF notes matured in September 1998; however, payment of these obligations was withheld by both parties pending resolution of all open matters with the FDIC. As discussed in Item 3, we settled the litigation with the FDIC in October 2001, and as part of that settlement all obligations under the LAN and FRF notes were extinguished.

     First Heights’ day-to-day activities are principally devoted to supporting residual regulatory compliance matters and the litigation with the United States government, discussed in Item 3, and are not reflective of the active operations of the former thrift, such as maintaining traditional transaction accounts (e.g., checking and savings accounts) or making loans. Accordingly, such operations are presented as discontinued.

Corporate

     Corporate is a non-operating segment that is comprised primarily of Pulte Homes, Inc. and Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc., both of which are holding companies. The primary purpose of Corporate is to support the operations of our subsidiaries by acting as the internal source of financing, developing and implementing strategic initiatives centered around new business development and operating efficiencies. Business development activities include the pursuit of additional domestic and international opportunities as well as the development of innovative building components and processes. Corporate also includes the activities associated with supporting a publicly traded entity listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

     Corporate assets include equity investments in its subsidiaries, short-term financial instruments and affiliate advances. Liabilities include senior and subordinated debt and income taxes. Corporate revenues consist primarily of investment earnings of excess funds, while its expenses include costs associated with supporting a publicly traded company and its subsidiaries’ operations, and investigating strategic initiatives.

Organization/Employees

     All subsidiaries and operating units operate independently with respect to daily operations. Homebuilding real estate purchases and other significant homebuilding, mortgage banking, financing activities and similar operating decisions must be approved by the business unit and/or corporate senior management.

     At December 31, 2003, we employed approximately 10,800 persons. Our employees are not represented by any union. Contracted work, however, may be performed by union contractors. Homebuilding and mortgage banking management personnel are paid performance bonuses and incentive compensation. Performance bonuses are based on individual performance while incentive compensation is based on the performance of the applicable business unit or subsidiary. Our corporate management personnel are paid incentive compensation based on our overall performance. Each subsidiary is given autonomy regarding employment of personnel, although our senior corporate management acts in an advisory capacity in the employment of subsidiary officers. We consider our employee and contractor relations to be satisfactory.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

     Our homebuilding and corporate headquarters are located at 100 Bloomfield Hills Parkway, Suite 300, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan 48304, where we lease 63,740 square feet of office space. We also lease 37,004 square feet of office space at 15333 N. Pima Rd., Suite 300/340/345, Scottsdale, Arizona 85250 and 41,208 square feet of office space at 1230 West Washington Street, Tempe, Arizona 85281 for certain corporate and business services. Pulte Mortgage’s offices are located at 7475 South Joliet Street, Englewood, Colorado 80112 and 99 Inverness Drive East, Englewood, Colorado 80112. We lease approximately 61,436 square feet and 32,000 square feet, respectively, of office space at these locations. Our homebuilding markets and mortgage branch operations generally lease office space for their day-to-day operations. First Heights’ administrative office is located in 918 square feet of leased space at 2010 North Loop West, Suite 220, Houston, Texas 77018.

     Because of the nature of our homebuilding operations, significant amounts of property are held as inventory in the ordinary course of our homebuilding business. Such properties are not included in response to this Item.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     We are involved in various litigation incidental to our continuing business operations. We believe that none of this litigation will have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, our financial position or our cash flows.

First Heights-related litigation

     We were a party to three lawsuits relating to First Heights’ 1988 acquisition from the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC) and First Heights’ ownership of five failed Texas thrifts. The first lawsuit (the District Court Case) was filed on July 7, 1995, in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) against Pulte Homes, Inc., Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc. and First Heights (collectively, the Pulte Parties). The second lawsuit (the Court of Federal Claims Case) was filed on December 26, 1996, in the United States Court of Federal Claims (Washington, D.C.) by the Pulte Parties against the United States. The third lawsuit was filed by First Heights on January 10, 2000, in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan against the FDIC regarding the amounts, including interest, the FDIC was obligated to pay First Heights on two promissory notes which had been executed by the FDIC’s predecessor, the FSLIC.

     In the District Court Case, the FDIC, as successor to the FSLIC, sought a declaration of rights and other relief related to the Assistance Agreement entered into between First Heights and the FSLIC. The FDIC and the Pulte Parties disagreed about the proper interpretation of provisions in the Assistance Agreement which provide for sharing of certain tax benefits achieved in connection with First Heights’ 1988 acquisition and ownership of the five failed Texas thrifts. The District Court Case also included certain other claims relating to the foregoing, including claims resulting from our amendment and First Heights’ amendment of a tax sharing and allocation agreement between us and First Heights. The Pulte Parties disputed the FDIC’s claims and filed an answer and a counterclaim, seeking, among other things, a declaration that the FDIC had breached the Assistance Agreement in numerous respects. On December 24, 1996, the Pulte Parties voluntarily dismissed without prejudice certain of their claims in the District Court Case and, on December 26, 1996, initiated the Court of Federal Claims Case.

     In October 2001, the FDIC and the Pulte Parties settled the District Court Case, the related appeal to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals and the third lawsuit. As part of this settlement (the Settlement), the First Heights Assistance Agreement was terminated, except that certain tax benefit sharing provisions will continue in effect, and the warrants issued by First Heights to the FDIC were extinguished. We do not believe that the claims in the Court of Federal Claims Case are in any way prejudiced by the Settlement.

     In the Court of Federal Claims Case, the Pulte Parties assert breaches of contract on the part of the United States in connection with the enactment of Section 13224 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (OBRA). That provision repealed portions of the tax benefits that the Pulte Parties claim they were entitled to under the contract to acquire the failed Texas thrifts. The Pulte Parties also assert other claims concerning the contract, including that the United States (through the FDIC as receiver) improperly attempted to amend the failed thrifts’ pre-acquisition tax returns and that this attempt was made in an effort to deprive the Pulte Parties of tax benefits for which they had contracted.

     On August 17, 2001, the United States Court of Federal Claims ruled that the United States government is liable to the Pulte Parties for breach of contract by enacting Section 13224 of OBRA. In September 2003, the United States Court of Federal Claims issued final judgment that the Pulte Parties have been damaged by approximately $48.7 million as a result of the United States government’s breach of contract with them. The United States government and the Pulte Parties filed Notices of Appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in October 2003. Accordingly, any gain related to this litigation will be recognized only upon final resolution.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

     A summary of our operating results by business segment for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001 is as follows ($000’s omitted, except per share data):

     A comparison of pre-tax income (loss), for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001 is as follows:

    Continued strong demand for new housing, the addition and expansion of the Del Webb branded communities, coupled with our ability to effectively manage selling price and pace through our unique segmentation strategy drove pre-tax income of our homebuilding business segment to increase 38% in 2003 and 41% in 2002. Domestic average unit selling price increased by 7% in 2003 and 8% in 2002. Additionally, domestic gross margin percentages from home sales were up 120 basis points in 2003 principally as a result of product price increases and market and product mix shifts. Compared to 2001, our 2002 domestic gross margin percentages were up 30 basis points principally as a result of purchase accounting adjustments recorded in 2001.
 
    Pre-tax income of our financial services business segment increased 3% in 2003 and 81% in 2002. The increase in 2003 was primarily driven by an increase in loan originations and a higher capture rate tempered by a less favorable interest rate environment during the last half of the year. The 2002 increase was a result of increased volume, a favorable interest rate environment, effective leverage of overhead costs and the addition of Del Webb mortgage operations.
 
    Pre-tax loss of our non-operating corporate segment increased 22% in 2003 to $75.4 million principally from higher compensation-related costs. The pre-tax loss in 2002 increased 8% as a result of higher interest costs, related to an increase in debt levels to support the growth of the business.

     During the third quarter of 2003 and 2002, we recorded non-cash, after-tax gains of $7.9 million and $10.0 million, respectively, related to the favorable resolution of certain tax matters relating to our thrift operation, which we discontinued in 1994.

Homebuilding

     Our Homebuilding segment consists of the following operations:

    Domestic Homebuilding - We conduct our Domestic Homebuilding operations in 44 markets located throughout 27 states. Domestic Homebuilding offers a broad product line to meet the needs of the first-time, first and second move-up, and active adult homebuyers.

(a)     Net new orders for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2001, do not include 1,051 units and 3,953 units, respectively, of acquired backlog and related dollars.

     Unit settlements in 2003 reached a record high, increasing 13% to 32,693 units. The increase in 2003 can be attributed to continued strong demand for new housing and an increase in the active communities to 535 from 460. Unit settlements in 2002 increased 26% to 28,903 units, principally from the inclusion of a full year of Del Webb operations combined with strong sales in the Midwest. The average selling price for our homes increased from $225,000 in 2001 to $242,000 in 2002 and to $259,000 in the current year. Changes in average selling price reflect a number of factors, including price increases, the mix of product closed during a period and the number of options purchased by customers. Both 2003 and 2002 benefited from increased product prices and improved product mix.

     Ending backlog, which represents orders for homes that have not yet closed, climbed 32% to 13,952 homes. The dollar value of our ending backlog was up 45% to $4.1 billion at December 31, 2003. Unit and dollar backlog at December 31, 2002, increased 22% and 35%, respectively, to 10,605 homes valued at $2.9 billion. Overall, strong demand supported by a favorable interest rate environment and an increase in the number of active communities drove increased order activity and record levels of backlog.

*   Domestic homebuilding interest expense, which represents the amortization of capitalized interest, has been reclassified to home cost of sales.

     Gross profit margins from home sales in 2003 increased 120 basis points over 2002 to 20.6%. Gross profit margins in 2002 increased 30 basis points to 19.4%. Factors that contributed to this favorable trend include strong customer demand, positive home pricing, the benefits of leverage-buy purchasing activities and effective production and inventory management. In addition, 2001 gross profit margins were negatively impacted 20 basis points as a result of purchase accounting adjustments.

     Land sales increased in each of the prior three years, demonstrating our competency in purchasing, developing and entitling certain land positions for sale primarily to other homebuilders, as well as to retail and commercial establishments. Revenues and their related gains/losses may vary significantly between periods, depending on the timing of such sales. We continue to rationalize certain existing land positions to ensure the most effective use of invested capital. Included in other assets is approximately $251.2 million in land held for disposition as of December 31, 2003, as compared to $218.8 million in the prior year.

     For the year ended December 31, 2003, selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of home settlement revenues, increased 20 basis points to 9.7% after increasing 10 basis points to 9.5% in 2002. The increase in 2003 is principally attributable to costs associated with the realignment of our field operations and organizations to meet the challenge and opportunity for future growth. Higher startup costs for new communities and increased compensation related costs partially offset by a reduction in costs associated with the Del Webb operations contributed to the change in 2002.

     Other income (expense), net totaled income of $3.4 million in 2003 compared to expense of $23.0 million in 2002. This favorable change was principally a result of equity earnings from two Nevada-based joint ventures, totaling $28.5 million, related to the sale of commercial and residential properties. Other expense, net of $16.9 million in 2001 benefited from income from certain non-operating investments totaling $4.2 million.

     At December 31, 2003 and 2002, our Domestic Homebuilding operations controlled approximately 256,900 and 176,800 lots, respectively. Approximately 120,400 and 84,300 lots were owned, and approximately 66,000 and 43,800 lots were under option agreements approved for purchase at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. In addition, there were approximately 70,500 lots under option agreements at December 31, 2003, pending approval, that are under review and evaluation for future use by our Domestic Homebuilding operations. This compared to 48,700 lots at December 31, 2002.

     The total purchase price applicable to approved land under option for use by our homebuilding operations at future dates approximated $2.6 billion at December 31, 2003. In addition, total purchase price applicable to land under option pending approval was valued at $2.1 billion at December 31, 2003. Land option agreements, which may be cancelled at our discretion, may extend over several years and are secured by deposits totaling $99.0 million, which are generally non-refundable.

International Homebuilding

     Our International Homebuilding operations are primarily conducted through subsidiaries of International in Mexico, Puerto Rico and Argentina. Effective January 1, 2002, we reorganized the structure of our operations within Mexico to create a single company, Pulte Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. , which ranks as one of the largest builders in the country. Prior to the reorganization, these operations were conducted primarily through five joint ventures throughout Mexico. Under the new ownership structure, which combines the largest of these entities, we own 63.8% of Pulte Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. and have consolidated Pulte Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. into our financial statements. Results for 2002 include joint venture operations for one month and operations as a consolidated entity for eleven months, as the operations in Mexico report on a one-month lag.

     We are currently in the process of evaluating various long-term strategic alternatives with regard to our International operations.

     The following table presents selected financial data for our International Homebuilding operations for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 ($000’s omitted):

Note:  Homebuilding unit settlements of affiliates, not included in the table above, for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001 were 149, 1,022, and 7,258, respectively.

     International revenues and unit settlements for 2003 benefited from a full year of results from our operations in Mexico as well as increased sales in both Argentina and Puerto Rico. Our Mexico operations had revenues of $172.3 million and unit settlements of 6,777 for the year ended December 31, 2003. Increased revenues and settlements in 2002 were due to consolidation of the operations in Mexico for eleven months of 2002, a full year of closings in Argentina, which recorded its first closing in June of 2001, partially offset by a decline in Puerto Rico. Our operations in Mexico contributed revenues of $158.1 million and unit settlements of 6,271 units in 2002.

     Gross profit margins from home sales declined 20 basis points to 19.7% in 2003 compared to 2002, as favorable product and geographic mix shifts in Mexico were offset by less favorable product mix shifts in Puerto Rico and unfavorable sales pace in Argentina. The consolidation of Mexico had a positive effect on 2002 gross margins, increasing to 19.9% from 12.0% in 2001.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue increased by 60 basis points to 18.5% in 2003 from 17.9% in 2002. This increase was driven by additional costs incurred reorganizing our operations in Mexico in an effort to enhance future profitability. Aggressive marketing efforts in Argentina, coupled with limited reorganization costs and a stronger peso, also contributed to the increase.

     Our operations in Argentina and Mexico are affected by fluctuations in currency rates for those countries. Transaction gains and losses for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, classified as other income (expense), net, were not significant. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, we recorded a foreign currency translation gain of $1.9 million and a loss of $12.8 million, respectively, for Argentina and a translation loss of $5.9 million and a gain of $8.6 million for Mexico, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the balance sheet. At December 31, 2003, our investment in Argentina and Mexico, net of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments, approximated $13.2 million and $65.8 million, respectively.

Financial Services

     We conduct our financial services business, which includes mortgage and title operations, through Pulte Mortgage and other subsidiaries.

     We sell our servicing rights on a flow basis through fixed price servicing sales contracts. Due to the short period of time the servicing rights are held, generally less than four months, we do not amortize the servicing asset. Since the servicing rights are recorded based on the value in the servicing sales contracts, there are no impairment issues related to these assets. We also originate mortgage loans using our own funds or borrowings made available through various credit arrangements, and then sell such mortgage loans to outside investors.

     The following table presents mortgage origination data for our Financial Services operations:

                           
      Years Ended December 31,

     Mortgage origination unit and principal volume for the year ended December 31, 2003, increased 24% and 32%, respectively, over 2002. This growth can be attributed to an increase in the capture rate of 510 basis points to 82.7% combined with the volume increases experienced in our Homebuilding business and an increase in average loan size. Our capture rate represents loan originations from our homebuilding business as a percent of total loan opportunities, excluding cash settlements, from our homebuilding business. Mortgage origination principal volume in 2002 increased 28% over 2001, due to an increase in the capture rate of 390 basis points to 77.6% and the inclusion of Del Webb mortgage operations for a full year. Origination unit volume increased 21% due to the same factors. Our home buying customers continue to account for the majority of total loan production representing 83% of total Pulte Mortgage unit production for 2003, compared with 85% in 2002 and 81% in 2001. Refinancings represented 8% of total loan production in 2003 and 2002, and 10% during 2001. At December 31, 2003, loan application backlog increased 57% to $2.2 billion as compared to $1.4 billion and $0.8 billion at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

     Pre-tax income for the year ended December 31, 2003, increased 3% to $68.8 million, as a result of increased volume, partially offset by the impact of a less favorable interest rate environment for selling loans during the last six months of the year and an increase in training, systems, and facilities costs incurred in anticipation of the projected growth of the business. Gains from the sale of mortgages increased $2.0 million, or 3%, from the same period in 2002. As compared with 2002, net interest income increased $3.8 million to $15.1 million during 2003 due to increased production. Income from our title operations was $13.5 million in 2003, an increase of 11% over 2002.

     Pre-tax income for the year ended December 31, 2002, increased 81% to $66.7 million, as a result of increased volume, a favorable interest rate environment, effective leverage of overhead costs and the inclusion of Del Webb mortgage operations for a full year. Gains from the sale of mortgages increased $20.4 million, or 49%, from the same period in 2001. As compared with 2001, net interest income increased $6.3 million to $11.3 million during 2002 due to increased production and a steeper yield curve as a result of the drop in interest rates during 2002. Title income grew 42% contributing $12.2 million to pre-tax income for the year.

     We hedge portions of our forecasted cash flow from sales of closed mortgage loans with derivative financial instruments. For the year ended December 31, 2003, we did not recognize any net gains or losses related to an ineffective portion of the hedging instrument. We also did not recognize any gains or losses during 2003, for cash flow hedges that were discontinued because it is probable that the original forecasted transaction will not occur. At December 31, 2003, we expect to reclassify $0.2 million, net of taxes, of net losses on derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings during the next twelve months from sales of closed mortgage loans.

Corporate

     Corporate is a non-operating segment that supports the operations of our subsidiaries by acting as the internal source of financing, developing and implementing strategic initiatives centered on new business development and operating efficiencies, and providing the necessary administrative support associated with being a publicly traded entity listed on the New York Stock Exchange. As a result, the corporate segment’s operating results will vary from year to year as these strategic initiatives evolve.

     The following table presents this segment’s results of operations ($000’s omitted):

                         
    Years Ended December 31,
   
    2003   2002   2001
   
 
 
Net interest expense
  $ 39,364     $ 38,214     $ 34,261

Loss before income taxes
  $ 75,351     $ 61,968     $ 57,452  
 
   
     
     
 

     Interest expense, net of interest capitalized into inventory, increased 3% to $39.4 million in 2003 and 12% to $38.2 million in 2002. This trend is a result of an increase in debt levels necessary to support our growth. Interest incurred for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, excluding interest incurred by our financial services operations, was approximately $179.0 million, $162.5 million and $116.9 million, respectively.

     Other corporate expense, net in 2003 increased $12.2 million principally as a result of higher compensation-related costs. Over the two-year period ended December 31, 2002, other corporate expenses, net were relatively flat, as higher compensation-related costs were offset by income from the sale and adjustment to fair value of various non-operating parcels of commercial land held for sale.

     Interest capitalized into inventory is charged to home cost of sales based on the cyclical timing of our unit settlements, over a period that approximates the average life cycle of our communities. Interest in inventory, has increased primarily as a result of higher levels of indebtedness and the addition of the Del Webb properties, which have a longer life cycle. Information related to Corporate interest capitalized into inventory is as follows ($000’s omitted):

Discontinued Operations

     During the third quarter of 2003 and 2002, we recorded non-cash, after-tax gains of $7.9 million and $10.0 million, respectively, related to the favorable resolution of certain tax matters relating to our thrift operation, First Heights Bank, fsb (First Heights), which we discontinued in 1994.

     In September 2003, the United States Court of Federal Claims issued final judgment that Pulte Homes, Inc., Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc. and First Heights (collectively, the Pulte Parties) had been damaged by approximately $48.7 million as a result of the United States government’s breach of contract with them. The final judgment follows the Court’s August 17, 2001 ruling that the United States breached the contract related to the Pulte Parties’ 1988 acquisition of five savings and loan associations by enacting Section 13224 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993. The United States government and the Pulte Parties filed Notices of Appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in October 2003. Accordingly, any gain related to this litigation will be recognized only upon final resolution.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Our net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2003 totaled $301.8 million. The increase in net income was offset by significant investments in land necessary to support the continued growth of the business. Net cash used in investing activities was $34.1 million for 2003. Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2003, was $128.9 million, reflecting proceeds from the $300 million senior notes issued in February and the $400 million senior notes issued in May and proceeds from employee stock option exercises, offset by the repayment of debt, dividends paid and stock repurchases.

     Our net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2002, was $148.8 million. The increase in net income was aided by the realization of certain tax benefits and an increase in accrued liabilities, while inventories continued to build to support the growth of the business. Net cash provided by investing activities was $21.5 million for 2002. Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2002, was $374.0 million, reflecting proceeds from the $300 million senior notes issued in June 2002, proceeds from borrowings under our various credit facilities and proceeds from employee stock option exercises, offset by the repayment of debt, dividends paid and stock repurchases.

     We finance our homebuilding land acquisitions, development and construction activities from internally generated funds and existing credit agreements. Effective October 1, 2003, we replaced our $570 million revolving credit facility with an $850 million facility that includes the capacity to issue letters of credit up to $500 million. This new credit facility expires October 1, 2008. We had no borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility at December 31, 2003.

     Pulte Mortgage provides mortgage financing for many of our home sales and uses its own funds and borrowings made available pursuant to various committed and uncommitted credit arrangements. Pulte Mortgage has committed credit arrangements of $860 million comprised of a $310 million bank revolving credit facility and a $550 million annual asset-backed commercial paper program. There were approximately $479.3 million of borrowings outstanding under existing Pulte Mortgage arrangements at December 31, 2003. Mortgage loans originated by Pulte Mortgage are subsequently sold to outside investors. We anticipate that there will be adequate mortgage financing available for purchasers of our homes.

     In February 2003, we sold $300 million of 6.25% unsecured senior notes, due 2013. Proceeds from this issuance were used to retire our $175 million 9.5% senior notes that matured on April 1, 2003 and redeem the remaining outstanding principal balance of approximately $155 million of Del Webb’s $200 million 9.375% senior subordinated notes due 2009 that were called for redemption in March at a price equal to 104.688% of the principal amount.

     In May 2003, we sold $400 million of 6.375% unsecured senior notes, due 2033. Proceeds from this issuance were used for general corporate purposes and to retire our $100 million 7% senior notes that matured on December 15, 2003.

     In December 2003, we increased our dividend 150% to $.05 per share from $.02 per share.

     Pursuant to our $100 million share repurchase program, we repurchased 790,800 common shares at an aggregate cost of approximately $18.2 million during 2003 and 200,000 common shares for approximately $4.3 million in 2002. At December 31, 2003, we had remaining authorization to purchase common stock aggregating $77.5 million.

     Our income tax liability and related effective tax rate are affected by a number of factors. In 2003, our effective tax rate was 38.0% compared to 39.0% in 2002 and 38.5% in 2001. The reduction in the effective tax rate for 2003 is principally due to a lower expected effective state income tax rate for 2003 and the shareholders’ approval of our new Senior Management Annual Incentive Plan, which will allow for full tax deductibility of Plan payments under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Service Code. We anticipate that our effective tax rate for 2004 will be approximately 38%.

     At December 31, 2003, we had cash and equivalents of $404.1 million, $2.1 billion of unsecured senior notes and $77.3 million of unsecured senior subordinated notes. Other financing includes limited recourse collateralized financing totaling $83.3 million.

     Sources of our working capital at December 31, 2003, include cash and equivalents, our $850 million committed unsecured revolving credit facility and Pulte Mortgage’s $860 million revolving credit facilities. Our debt-to-total capitalization, excluding our collateralized debt, was 38.4% as of December 31, 2003, and 33.6% net of cash and equivalents. We expect to maintain our net debt-to-total capitalization at or below the 40% level.

     In January 2004, we sold $500 million of 5.25% senior notes, due 2014. Proceeds from the sale will be used to retire the Del Webb 10.25% subordinated debentures called for redemption and for general corporate purposes including continued investment in our business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

Inflation

     We, and the homebuilding industry in general, may be adversely affected during periods of high inflation because of higher land and construction costs. Inflation also increases our financing, labor and material costs. In addition, higher mortgage interest rates significantly affect the affordability of permanent mortgage financing to prospective homebuyers. We attempt to pass to our customers any increases in our costs through increased sales prices. To date, inflation has not had a material adverse effect on our results of operations. However, there is no assurance that inflation will not have a material adverse impact on our future results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

     We use standby letters of credit and performance bonds to guarantee our performance under various contracts, principally in connection with the development of our projects. The expiration dates of the letter of credit contracts coincide with the expected completion date of the related projects. If the obligations related to a project are ongoing, annual extensions of the letters of credit are typically granted on a year-to-year basis. At December 31, 2003, we had outstanding letters of credit of $215.2 million. Performance bonds do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. These bonds, which approximated $1.2 billion at December 31, 2003, are typically outstanding over a period that approximates 3-5 years. We do not believe that we will be required to draw upon any such letters of credit or performance bonds.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements (continued)

     In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land option or option type agreements in order to procure land for the construction of houses in the future. At December 31, 2003, these agreements totaled approximately $4.7 billion. Pursuant to these land option agreements, we provide a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices. If the entity holding the land under option is a variable interest entity, our deposit represents a variable interest in that entity. At December 31, 2003, we consolidated certain variable interest entities with assets totaling $73.3 million.

     We currently do not have any non-consolidated special purpose entity arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. When more than one accounting principle, or the method of its application, is generally accepted, we select the principle or method that is appropriate in our specific circumstances (see Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Application of these accounting principles requires us to make estimates about the future resolution of existing uncertainties; as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. In preparing these financial statements, we have made our best estimates and judgments of the amounts and disclosures included in the financial statements, giving due regard to materiality. The development and selection of the following critical accounting policies and estimates have been discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

Revenue recognition

     Homebuilding – Homebuilding revenues are recorded when the sales of homes are completed and ownership has transferred to the customer. Unfunded settlements are deposits in transit on homes for which the sale was completed. We do not engage in arrangements whereby we have ongoing relationships with our homebuyers that require us to repurchase our homes or provide homebuyers with the right of return.

     Financial Services – Mortgage servicing fees represent fees earned for servicing loans for various investors. Servicing fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal balance and are credited to income when the related mortgage payments are received. Loan origination fees, commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred as an adjustment to the cost of the related mortgage loan until such loan is sold. Gains and losses from sales of mortgage loans are recognized when the loans are sold. Interest income is accrued from the date a mortgage loan is originated until the loan is sold.

Inventory valuation

     Our finished inventories are stated at the lower of accumulated costs or net realizable value. Included in inventories are all direct development costs. Inventories under development or held for development are stated at accumulated cost, unless they are determined to be impaired, in which case these inventories are measured at fair value. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory adjustments may be required.

     We capitalize interest cost into homebuilding inventories. Interest capitalized each quarter is identified as a separate layer in our capitalized interest balance sheet pool. Each layer of capitalized interest is amortized over a period that approximates the average life of communities under development. Interest expense is allocated to the quarters over the amortization period based on the historical relationship of unit settlements in a quarter compared to annual unit settlements. This period increased in 2001, due to the addition of the Del Webb properties, which have a longer life cycle, and could change in the future as the mix of communities change.

     Sold units are expensed on a specific identification basis. Under the specific identification basis, cost of sales includes the construction cost of the home, an average lot cost by project based on land acquisition and development costs, and closing costs and commissions. Construction cost of the home includes amounts paid through the closing date of the home, plus an accrual for costs incurred but not yet paid, based on an analysis of budgeted construction cost. This accrual is reviewed for accuracy based on actual payments made after closing compared to the amount accrued, and adjustments are made if needed. Total project land acquisition and development costs are based on an analysis of budgeted costs compared to actual costs incurred to date and estimates to complete. Adjustments to estimated total project land acquisition and development costs for the project affect the amount of future lots costed.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates (continued)

Residential mortgage loans available-for-sale

     Residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are stated at the lower of aggregate cost or market value. Gains and losses from sales of mortgage loans are recognized when the loans are sold. We hedge our residential mortgage loans available-for-sale. Gains and losses from closed commitments and futures contracts are matched against the related gains and losses on the sale of mortgage loans.

Goodwill and intangible assets

     We have identified significant intangible assets and generated significant goodwill, most recently as a result of the Del Webb merger in 2001. Intangible assets, primarily trademarks and tradenames, were valued using proven valuation procedures and are amortized over their estimated useful life. Goodwill is subject to annual impairment testing. The carrying value and ultimate realization of these assets is dependent upon estimates of future earnings and benefits that we expect to generate from their use. If our expectations of future results and cash flows decrease significantly, intangible assets and goodwill may be impaired and the resulting charge to operations may be material. If we determine that the carrying value of intangible assets, long-lived assets and goodwill may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more indicators of impairment, we measure impairment based on one of three methods. For assets related to ongoing operations, we use a projected undiscounted cash flow method to determine if impairment exists and then measure impairment using discounted cash flows. For assets to be disposed of, we assess the fair value of the asset based on current market conditions for similar assets. For goodwill, we assess fair value by measuring discounted cash flows of our reporting units and measure impairment as the difference between the resulting implied fair value of goodwill and the recorded book value.

     The estimates of useful lives and expected cash flows require us to make significant judgments regarding future periods that are subject to some factors outside of our control. Changes in these estimates could result in significant revisions to the carrying value of these assets and material charges to the results of operations.

Allowance for warranties

     Home purchasers are provided with warranties against certain building defects. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary geographically. Most warranties cover different aspects of the home’s construction and operating systems for a period of up to ten years. We estimate the costs to be incurred under these warranties and record a liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect our warranty liability include the number of homes sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and cost per claim. We periodically assess the adequacy of recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as necessary. Although we have not made significant adjustments to the accrual in the past, actual warranty cost in the future could differ from our current estimate.

Stock-based compensation

     We currently have several stock-based employee compensation plans. Effective January 1, 2003 we adopted the preferable fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” We selected the prospective method of adoption as permitted by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.” Under the prospective method, we will recognize compensation expense based on the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123 for all new stock option grants effective January 1, 2003. Grants made prior to January 1, 2003 will continue to be accounted for under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations. With the exception of certain variable stock option grants, no stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income for grants made prior to January 1, 2003, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant.

     We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of each option grant. The Black-Scholes model includes assumptions regarding dividend yields, expected volatility, risk-free interest rates and expected lives. These assumptions reflect management’s best estimates, but these items involve inherent uncertainties based on market conditions generally outside of our control. As a result, if other assumptions had been used, stock-based compensation expense could have been materially impacted. Furthermore, if management uses different assumptions in future periods, stock-based compensation expense could be materially impacted in future periods.

    5.27 %     5.53 %     6.12 %     2.16 %     4.00 %     4.00 %     5.30 %      

     Pulte Mortgage, operating as a mortgage banker, is also subject to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk begins when we commit to lend money to a customer at agreed-upon terms (i.e., commit to lend at a certain interest rate for a certain period of time). The interest rate risk continues through the loan closing and until the loan is sold to an investor. During 2003 and 2002, this period of interest rate exposure averaged approximately 60 days. In periods of rising interest rates, the length of exposure will generally increase due to customers locking in an interest rate sooner as opposed to letting the interest rate float.

     We minimize interest rate risk by (i) financing the loans via a variable rate borrowing agreement tied to the Federal Funds rate and (ii) hedging our loan commitments and closed loans through derivative financial instruments. These financial instruments include cash forward placement contracts on mortgage-backed securities, whole loan investor commitments, options on treasury future contracts and options on cash forward placement contracts on mortgage-backed securities. We do not use any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

     Hypothetical changes in the fair values of our financial instruments arising from immediate parallel shifts in long-term mortgage rates of plus 50, 100 and 150 basis points would not be material to our financial results.

     Our aggregate net investments exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk include our operations in Mexico which approximated $65.8 million, our mortgage banking joint venture investment in Mexico which approximated $17.5 million and our operations in Argentina which approximated $13.2 million.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   Basis of presentation and significant accounting policies
 
    Basis of presentation

       The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pulte Homes, Inc. and all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (the Company). The direct subsidiaries of Pulte Homes, Inc. include Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc., Del Webb Corporation (Del Webb) and other subsidiaries that are engaged in the homebuilding business. Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc.’s operating subsidiaries include Pulte Home Corporation, Pulte International Corporation (International) and other subsidiaries that are engaged in the homebuilding business. Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc.’s non-operating thrift subsidiary, First Heights Bank, fsb (First Heights), is classified as a discontinued operation (See Note 4). The Company also has a mortgage banking company, Pulte Mortgage LLC (Pulte Mortgage), which is a subsidiary of Pulte Home Corporation.

       Effective January 1, 2002, the Company reorganized the structure of its operations within Mexico to create a single company, Pulte Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. Under the new ownership structure, the Company’s operations in Mexico, which were primarily conducted through joint ventures, have been combined into Pulte Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. and are 63.8% owned by International. Results for 2002 include joint venture operations for one month and operations as a consolidated entity for eleven months, as the operations in Mexico report on a one-month lag.

       Certain amounts previously reported in the 2002 financial statements and notes thereto were reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation. In addition, all share and per share amounts have been restated to reflect the Company’s two-for-one stock split announced December 11, 2003 and effected January 2, 2004.

    Significant accounting policies
 
    Use of estimates

       The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

    Foreign currency

       The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries in Argentina and Mexico are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the year. The resulting cumulative translation adjustments have been recorded in other comprehensive income. Realized foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Realized foreign currency transaction losses were $0.4 million, $0.7 million, and $0.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

    Cash and equivalents

       For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, commercial paper and time deposits with a maturity of three months or less when acquired are classified as cash equivalents.

    Goodwill

       On January 1, 2002, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” became effective. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company does not record amortization expense related to goodwill but reviews it annually for impairment. The following table sets forth reported net income and earnings per share, as adjusted to exclude goodwill amortization:

                     
        Year Ended December 31, 2001
        ($000’s omitted, except per share data)
        As Reported   As Adjusted
       
 
Income from continuing operations
  $ 302,425     $ 306,587  
 
   
     
 
Net income
  $ 301,393     $ 305,555  
 
   
     
 
Per share data:
               
 
Basic:
               
   
Income from continuing operations
  $ 3.08     $ 3.12

  $ 3.00     $ 3.05  
 
   
     
 
   
Net income
  $ 2.99     $ 3.04  
 
   
     
 

       At December 31, 2003, the majority of goodwill, which represents the cost of acquired companies in excess of the fair value of the net assets at the acquisition date, resulted from the acquisition of Del Webb in 2001. All goodwill relates to the Homebuilding segment, except for $0.7 million which relates to the Financial Services segment. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, annually and when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable, management evaluates the recoverability of goodwill by comparing the carrying value of the Company’s reporting units to their fair value. Fair value is determined based on discounted future cash flows. The Company performed its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter 2003 and determined there to be no impairment of goodwill. There has been no change in the carrying amount of goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002.

    Intangible assets

       Intangible assets consist primarily of trademarks and tradenames acquired in connection with the 2001 acquisition of Del Webb. These intangible assets were valued at the acquisition date utilizing proven valuation procedures and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a 20-year life. The acquired cost and accumulated amortization of the Company’s intangible assets is $163.5 million and $19.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 2003. Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001 was $8.3 million, $8.2 million, and $3.4 million, respectively, and is expected to be approximately $8.3 million in each of the next 5 years.

       In accordance with SFAS No. 144, intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If impairment indicators exist, an assessment of undiscounted future cash flows for the assets related to these intangibles is evaluated accordingly. If the results of the analysis indicate impairment, the assets are adjusted to fair market value.

    Fixed Assets and Depreciation

       Fixed assets are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to earnings as incurred. Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method based upon estimated useful lives as follows: Vehicles, three to five years, model and office furniture, two to five years, and equipment, three to ten years. Fixed assets are included in Other Assets and totaled $92.4 million net of accumulated depreciation of $88.8 million at December 31, 2003 and $76.1 million net of $74.3 million at December 31, 2002. Total depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 was $31.9 million, $31.1 million, and $30.1 million, respectively.

    Investments in unconsolidated entities

       The Company participates in a number of joint ventures with independent third parties in which the Company has less than a controlling interest. These joint ventures purchase, develop and/or sell land and homes in the United States, Mexico and Puerto Rico. The Company recognizes its share of profits from the sale of lots and homes to other buyers. Profits from lots the Company purchases from the joint ventures are not recognized, but instead are deferred until which time the related homes are sold. At December 31, 2003, the Company had approximately $51.9 million invested in these joint ventures. In the event management of the joint ventures determines that an additional capital infusion is required, the Company would need to contribute its pro rata portion of those capital needs in order not to dilute its ownership in the joint venture. The Company has not guaranteed any of the outstanding debt of the joint ventures at December 31, 2003, which approximated $121.4 million.
 
       The Company also owns 22.2% of the capital stock of a mortgage banking company in Mexico. At December 31, 2003, the Company’s investment in this entity was approximately $17.5 million. The Company does not have any purchase or investment commitments to this entity. Furthermore, the Company has not guaranteed any of the indebtedness of this entity, which approximated $1.3 billion at December 31, 2003.
 
       These investments are accounted for under the equity method.

    Advertising cost

       The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, the Company incurred advertising costs of approximately $80.6 million, $78.2 million and $56.8 million, respectively.

    Employee benefits

       The Company maintains three defined contribution plans that cover substantially all of the Company’s employees. Company contributions to the plans are expensed as paid. The total Company contributions pursuant to the plans were approximately $9.5 million, $7.0 million and $3.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

    Earnings per share

       Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares, adjusted for nonvested shares of restricted stock (the denominator) for the period. Computing diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the dilutive effects of options and restricted stock grants. Any options that have an exercise price greater than the average market price are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. For the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, 78,316, 267,272 and 1,795,500, respectively, of the outstanding stock options were excluded from this calculation.

    Fair values of financial instruments

       Carrying amounts for financial derivative instruments reported in the balance sheet approximate fair value as the amounts reported are based on current market prices. The estimated fair values of financial instruments were determined by management using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret the market data and develop the estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

       The carrying amounts of cash and equivalents approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

       The fair value of residential mortgage loans available-for-sale is estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans. Fair value exceeded cost by approximately $6.3 million and $7.8 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

       The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for derivative instruments approximate fair value as the amounts reported are based on current market prices. At December 31, 2003, derivative assets, included in other assets, in the balance sheet, totaled $2.7 million and derivative liabilities, included in accrued and other liabilities, totaled $3.9 million.

       The fair values of subordinated debentures and senior notes are based on quoted market prices, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of similar issues.

       Disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments are based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2003. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the reasonableness of the fair value amounts, such amounts were not comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since that date and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

    Stock-based compensation

       The Company currently has several stock-based employee compensation plans. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the preferable fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” The Company selected the prospective method of adoption as permitted by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure.” Under the prospective method, the Company will recognize compensation expense based on the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123 for all new stock option grants effective January 1, 2003. Grants made prior to January 1, 2003 will continue to be accounted for under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations. With the exception of certain variable stock option grants, no stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income for grants made prior to January 1, 2003, as all options granted in those years had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

       The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to all stock-based employee compensation. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively: weighted-average dividend yields of .44%, .32% and .39%, expected volatility of 35.3%, 34.9% and 34.8%, weighted-average risk-free interest rates of 3.57%, 3.45% and 4.94%, and weighted-average expected lives of 6.76 years, 6.82 years and 6.97 years.

These amounts have been excluded from the reconciliation above as they would have no impact on pro forma net income as presented.

    New accounting pronouncements

       In November of 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others”, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34. This interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002 and the disclosure provisions were effective for the year ended December 31, 2002. The adoption of this interpretation did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

       In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.” This statement establishes standards for the classification and measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. With the exception of certain measurement criteria deferred indefinitely by the FASB, SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The implementation of SFAS No. 150 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

    Homebuilding
 
    Inventories

       Finished inventories are stated at the lower of accumulated cost or net realizable value. Inventories under development or held for development are stated at accumulated cost, unless certain facts indicate such cost would not be recovered from the cash flows generated by future disposition. In this instance, such inventories are measured at fair value.
 
       Sold units are expensed on a specific identification basis. Under the specific identification basis, cost of sales includes the construction cost of the home, an average lot cost by project based on land acquisition and development costs, and closing costs and commissions. Construction cost of the home includes amounts paid through the closing date of the home, plus an accrual for costs incurred but not yet paid, based on an analysis of budgeted construction cost. This accrual is reviewed for accuracy based on actual payments made after closing compared to the amount accrued, and adjustments are made if needed. Total project land acquisition and development costs are based on an analysis of budgeted costs compared to actual costs incurred to date and estimates to complete. Adjustments to estimated total project land acquisition and development costs for the project affect the amount of future lots costed.
 
       The Company capitalizes interest cost into homebuilding inventories. Each layer of capitalized interest is amortized over a period that approximates the average life of communities under development. Interest expense is allocated over the period based on the cyclical timing of unit settlements. The Company capitalized interest in the amount of $136.3 million, $123.1 million and $80.4 million and expensed to home cost of sales $78.7 million, $48.7 million and $36.0 million in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
 
       Major components of the Company’s inventory at December 31, 2003 and 2002 were:

                 
    2003   2002
   
 
Homes under construction
  $ 2,124,222     $ 1,697,348  
Land under development
    2,876,256       2,243,478

  $ 5,528,410     $ 4,293,597  
 
   
     
 

    Land, not owned, under option agreements

       In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” Until this interpretation was issued, a company generally included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only if it controlled the entity through voting interests. FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the expected losses from the variable interest entity’s activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns. FIN 46 applied immediately to all variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and is effective no later than the first interim period ending after December 31, 2003 for variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003.
 
       In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into land option agreements in order to procure land for the construction of houses in the future. Pursuant to these land option agreements, the Company will provide a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices. Under FIN 46, if the entity holding the land under option is a variable interest entity, the Company’s deposit represents a variable interest in that entity. The Company does not guarantee the obligations or performance of the variable interest entity.
 
       In applying the provisions of FIN 46, the Company evaluated all post-January 31, 2003 land option agreements and determined that the Company was subject to a majority of the expected losses or entitled to receive a majority of the expected residual returns under a limited number of these agreements. As the primary beneficiary under these agreements, the Company is required to consolidate the fair value of the variable interest entity. At December 31, 2003, the Company classified $73.3 million as Land, Not Owned, Under Option Agreements on the balance sheet, representing the fair value of land under contract including deposits. The corresponding liability has been classified as Accounts Payable, Accrued and Other Liabilities on the balance sheet. The adoption of FIN 46 has had no impact on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.

    Land, not owned, under option agreements (continued)

       The Company is in the process of evaluating its land option agreements and other agreements entered into prior to February 1, 2003. Depending on the terms and conditions of these agreements, the Company may be required to consolidate other variable interest entities. This evaluation will be completed by March 31, 2004.

    Land held for sale

       At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had approximately $251.2 million and $226.1 million of land held for sale classified as other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets related to the Company’s Homebuilding segment. Land held for sale is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell.

    Allowance for warranties

       Home purchasers are provided with warranties against certain building defects. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary geographically. Most warranties cover different aspects of the home’s construction and operating systems for a period of up to ten years. The Company estimates the costs to be incurred under these warranties and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty liability include the number of homes sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and cost per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

       Changes to the Company’s allowance for warranties for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, are as follows ($000’s omitted):

                 
    2003   2002

    Revenues

       Homebuilding revenues are recorded when the sales of homes are completed and ownership has transferred to the customer. Unfunded settlements are deposits in transit on homes for which the sale was completed.

    Start-up costs

       Costs and expenses associated with entry into new homebuilding markets and opening new communities in existing markets are expensed when incurred.

    Financial Services
 
    Mortgage servicing rights

       The Company allocates the cost of mortgage loans originated and purchased between the mortgage loans and the right to service those mortgage loans, based on relative fair value, on the date the loan is sold.

       The Company sells its servicing rights on a flow basis through fixed price servicing sales contracts. Due to the short period of time the servicing rights are held, generally less than four months, the Company does not amortize the servicing asset. Furthermore, there are no impairment issues since the servicing rights are recorded based on the value in the servicing sales contracts. The servicing sales contracts provide for the reimbursement of payments made when loans prepay within specified periods of time, usually 90 days after sale or securitization. The Company establishes reserves for this liability, included in accrued and other liabilities, at the time the sale is recorded. During 2003, 2002 and 2001, total servicing rights recognized were $36.7 million, $35.7 million, and $36.2 million, respectively, which are reflected in net gains from the sale of mortgages.

    Residential mortgage loans available-for-sale

       Residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are stated at the lower of aggregate cost or market value. Unamortized net mortgage discounts totaled $1.6 million and $1.5 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. These discounts are not amortized as interest revenue during the period the loans are held for sale.
 
       Gains and losses from sales of mortgage loans are recognized when the loans are sold. The Company hedges its residential mortgage loans available-for-sale. Gains and losses from closed commitments and futures contracts are matched against the related gains and losses on the sale of mortgage loans. During 2003, 2002 and 2001, net gains from the sale of mortgages were $64.4 million, $62.4 million and $41.9 million, respectively, which have been included in Financial Services revenue.

    Interest income on mortgage loans

       Interest income is accrued from the date a mortgage loan is originated until the loan is sold.

    Mortgage servicing, origination and commitment fees

       Mortgage servicing fees represent fees earned for servicing loans for various investors. Servicing fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal balance and are credited to income when related mortgage payments are received. Loan origination fees, commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred as an adjustment to the cost of the related mortgage loan until such loan is sold.

    Derivative instruments and hedging activities

       The Company recognizes all of its derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as either a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge.

       For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge (i.e., hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof that is attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings during the period of the change in fair values. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk), the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss is recognized in current earnings during the period of change. The Company currently uses only cash flow hedges.

       Market risks arise from movements in interest rates and cancelled or modified commitments to lend. In order to reduce these risks, the Company uses derivative financial instruments. These financial instruments include cash forward placement contracts on mortgage-backed securities, whole loan investor commitments, options on treasury futures contracts, and options on cash forward placement contracts on mortgage-backed securities. The Company does not use any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. When the Company commits to lend to the borrower (interest rate is locked to the borrower), the Company enters into one of the aforementioned derivative financial instruments. The change in the value of the loan commitment and the derivative financial instrument is recognized in current earnings during the period of change. At December 31, 2003, commitments by Pulte Mortgage to originate mortgage loans totaled $201.5 million at interest rates prevailing at the date of commitment.

    Derivative instruments and hedging activities (continued)

       Cash forward placement contracts on mortgage-back securities are commitments to either purchase or sell a specified financial instrument at a specified future date for a specified price and may be settled in cash by offsetting the position, or through the delivery of the financial instrument. Options on treasury futures contracts and options on mortgage-backed securities grant the purchaser, for a premium payment, the right to either purchase or sell a specified treasury futures contract or a specified mortgage-backed security, respectively, for a specified price within a specified period of time or on a specified date from or to the writer of the option.

       Mandatory cash forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities are the predominant derivative financial instruments used to minimize the market risk during the period from when the Company extends an interest rate lock to a loan applicant until the time the loan is sold to an investor. Whole loan investor commitments are obligations of the investor to buy loans at a specified price within a specified time period. At December 31, 2003, Pulte Mortgage had unexpired cash forward contracts and whole loan investor commitments of $668.8 million. Options on cash forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities are used in the same manner as mandatory cash forward contracts, but provide protection from interest rates rising, while still allowing an opportunity for profit if interest rates fall. Options on the treasury futures contracts are used as cross hedges on various loan product types and to protect the Company in a volatile interest rate environment from unexpected increases, cancellations or modifications in lending commitments.

       Since the Company can terminate a loan commitment if the borrower does not comply with the terms of the contract, and some loan commitments may expire without being drawn upon, these commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements of Pulte Mortgage. The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of these transactions through its normal credit policies.

       The Company hedges portions of its forecasted cash flow from sales of closed mortgage loans with derivative financial instruments. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company did not recognize any net gains or losses related to an ineffective portion of the hedging instrument. In addition, the Company did not recognize any net gains or losses during the year ended December 31, 2003, for cash flow hedges that were discontinued because the forecasted transaction did not occur. At December 31, 2003, the Company expects to reclassify $0.2 million net of taxes, of net losses on derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings during the next twelve months from sales of closed mortgage loans.

3.   Del Webb merger

       On July 31, 2001, the Company merged with Del Webb Corporation in a tax-free stock-for-stock transaction. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each outstanding share of Del Webb common stock was exchanged for approximately 0.894 shares of newly issued Company stock. Approximately 16.8 million shares were issued to Del Webb shareholders. Del Webb was primarily a homebuilder with operations in seven states. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001, Del Webb reported net income of $91.2 million on revenues of $1.9 billion and 7,038 unit settlements. Backlog reported at June 30, 2001, was 3,682 units valued at approximately $994 million.

       This merger expanded and supported the Company’s leadership position. In particular, the Company believes the merger strengthened its position among active adult homebuyers, added important strategic land positions, provided operational savings from economies of scale, bolstered purchasing leverage, and enhanced overall competitive position.

       The merger was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Approximately 16.8 million shares were issued and assigned an approximate accounting value of $42.74 per share based on the average closing price of the Company’s stock for the five trading days ended July 26, 2001. The components of the purchase price and allocation are as follows ($000’s omitted):

3.   Del Webb merger (continued)

       The pro forma information presented does not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that would have actually been reported had the merger occurred on January 1, 2001. For the purposes of the above pro-forma information presented and in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill is not amortized for transactions occurring subsequent to June 30, 2001. As such, operations presented do not include amortization of the goodwill recognized in the Del Webb merger.

4.   Discontinued operations

       In September 1988, substantially all of the assets, business operations and certain liabilities of five Texas-based insolvent thrifts were acquired by First Heights. Assistance with each acquisition was provided by the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC) pursuant to an Assistant Agreement.

       During the first quarter of 1994, the Company adopted a plan of disposal for First Heights and announced its strategy to exit the thrift industry and increase its focus on housing and related mortgage banking. First Heights sold all but one of its 32 bank branches and related deposits to two unrelated purchasers. The sale was substantially completed during the fourth quarter of 1994, although the Company held brokered deposits which were not liquidated until 1998.

       Although the Company in 1994, expected to complete the plan of disposal within a reasonable period of time, contractual disputes with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) precluded the Company from completing the disposal in accordance with its original plan. As discussed in Note 11, the Company settled its litigation with the FDIC in October 2001.

       First Heights’ day-to-day activities have been principally devoted to supporting residual regulatory compliance matters and the litigation with the United States government, discussed in Note 11, and are not reflective of the active operations of the former thrift, such as maintaining traditional transaction accounts (e.g., checking and savings accounts) or making loans. Accordingly, such operations are being presented as discontinued.

       Revenues of discontinued operations were $6,000, $17,000 and $29,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, discontinued thrift operations reported after-tax gains of $7.3 million and $9.0 million and an after-tax loss of $1.0 million, respectively. The after-tax gains for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 include approximately $7.9 million and $10.0 million, respectively, of income related to the recognition of income tax benefits resulting from the favorable resolution of certain tax matters.

5.   Other financing arrangements
 
    Corporate/Homebuilding

       Effective October 1, 2003, Pulte Homes, Inc. replaced its $570 million revolving credit facility with an $850 million facility that includes the capacity to issue letters of credit up to $500 million. Borrowing availability on this line is reduced by the amount of letters of credit outstanding. This new credit facility expires October 1, 2008. The bank credit agreement contains restrictive covenants, the most restrictive of which requires the Company not to exceed a debt-to-total capitalization ratio as defined in the agreement of 50%. The following is a summary of aggregate borrowing information related to this facility ($000’s omitted):

                         
    2003   2002   2001
   
 
 
Available credit lines at year-end
  $ 850,000     $ 570,000     $ 560,000

Maximum amount outstanding at the end of any month

Average monthly indebtedness

Weighted-average rate at year-end
    2.22 %     2.78 %     3.79 %

       In addition, the Company’s operating entity in Argentina entered into a $3 million revolving credit facility in October 2002 to provide an additional financial resource to support the operations. Pulte Homes, Inc. has guaranteed the credit facility. There was $2 million outstanding under this facility at December 31, 2003.
 
       At December 31, 2003, other financing included limited recourse collateralized financing arrangements totaling $83.3 million. These financing arrangements have maturities ranging primarily from one to four years, a weighted average interest rate of 4.31%, are generally collateralized by certain land positions and have no recourse to any other assets. These arrangements have been classified as accrued and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

    Financial Services

       Notes payable to banks (collateralized short-term debt) are secured by residential mortgage loans available-for-sale. The carrying amounts of such borrowings approximate fair value.

       During 2003, Pulte Mortgage replaced and expanded its $175 million revolving credit facility with a $310 million facility and replaced its $325 million asset-backed commercial paper program with a $550 million program. The revolving credit facility expires in March 2005 and the asset-backed commercial paper program can be extended to August 2005. During the three years ended December 31, 2003, Pulte Mortgage provided compensating balances, in the form of escrows and other custodial funds, in order to further reduce interest rates. The bank credit agreements contain restrictive covenants, the most restrictive of which requires Pulte Mortgage to maintain a minimum tangible net worth of $30 million.

       The state net operating losses of $62.7 million expire in years 2013 through 2023. International net operating losses of $48,007 will expire in years 2006 through 2013. Net operating losses are generally available to offset the Company’s taxable income in future years. State and other credit carryforwards include a state credit voucher of $10.8 million that is expected to be realized by the Company no later than 2006. Realization of the net deferred tax asset, in certain jurisdictions, is dependent on future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and adequate future taxable income. Although realization is not assured, management believes that, except for the valuation allowance stated, it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will be realized.

10.   Leases

       The Company leases certain property and equipment under non-cancelable leases. Office and equipment leases are generally for terms of three to five years and generally provide renewal options for terms of up to an additional three years. Model home leases are generally for shorter terms approximating one year with renewal options on a month-to-month basis. In most cases, management expects that in the normal course of business, leases that expire will be renewed or replaced by other leases. The future minimum lease payments required under operating leases that have initial or remaining non-cancelable terms in excess of one year are as follows ($000’s omitted):

       Net rental expense for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 was $49.6 million, $48.8 million and $36.5 million, respectively. Certain leases contain purchase options and generally provide that the Company shall pay for insurance, taxes and maintenance.

11.   Commitments and contingencies

       In the normal course of business, the Company acquires rights under options or option-type agreements to purchase land to be used in homebuilding operations at future dates. The total purchase price applicable to land under option that has been approved for purchase approximated $2.6 billion and $1.5 billion at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The total purchase price applicable to land under option that has not been approved for purchase approximated $2.1 billion and $982 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

       At December 31, 2003, the Company, in the normal course of business, had outstanding letters of credit and performance bonds of $1.4 billion.

       The Company could be required to repurchase loans sold to investors that have not been underwritten in accordance with the investor guidelines (defective loans). The Company, in the normal course of business, indemnifies investors for defective loans that they have purchased. As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had been notified of $8.6 million and $8.8 million of defective loans, respectively. The Company assesses the risk of loss on these indemnifications and establishes reserves for them. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, reserves for indemnification on defective loans are reflected in accrued and other liabilities and amounted to $0.3 million.

       The Company is involved in various litigation incidental to its continuing business operations. Management does not believe that this litigation will have a material adverse impact on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

    First Heights-related litigation

       Pulte Homes, Inc. was a party to three lawsuits relating to First Heights’ 1988 acquisition from the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC) and First Heights’ ownership of five failed Texas thrifts. The first lawsuit (the District Court Case) was filed on July 7, 1995, in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) against Pulte Homes, Inc., Pulte Diversified Companies, Inc. and First Heights (collectively, the Pulte Parties). The second lawsuit (the Court of Federal Claims Case) was filed on December 26, 1996, in the United States Court of Federal Claims (Washington, D.C.) by the Pulte Parties against the United States. The third lawsuit was filed by First Heights on January 10, 2000, in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan against the FDIC regarding the amounts, including interest, the FDIC was obligated to pay First Heights on two promissory notes which had been executed by the FDIC’s predecessor, the FSLIC.

    First Heights-related litigation (continued)

       In the District Court Case, the FDIC, as successor to the FSLIC, sought a declaration of rights and other relief related to the Assistance Agreement entered into between First Heights and the FSLIC. The FDIC and the Pulte Parties disagreed about the proper interpretation of provisions in the Assistance Agreement which provide for sharing of certain tax benefits achieved in connection with First Heights’ 1988 acquisition and ownership of the five failed Texas thrifts. The District Court Case also included certain other claims relating to the foregoing, including claims resulting from the Company’s and First Heights’ amendment of a tax sharing and allocation agreement between the Company and First Heights. The Pulte Parties disputed the FDIC’s claims and filed an answer and a counterclaim seeking, among other things, a declaration that the FDIC had breached the Assistance Agreement in numerous respects. On December 24, 1996, the Pulte Parties voluntarily dismissed without prejudice certain of their claims in the District Court Case and, on December 26, 1996, initiated the Court of Federal Claims Case.

       In October 2001, the FDIC and the Pulte Parties settled the District Court Case, the related appeal to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals and the third lawsuit. As part of this settlement (the Settlement), the First Heights Assistance Agreement was terminated, except that certain tax benefit sharing provisions will continue in effect, and the warrants issued by First Heights to the FDIC were extinguished. The Company does not believe that the claims in the Court of Federal Claims Case are in any way prejudiced by the Settlement.

       In the Court of Federal Claims Case, the Pulte Parties assert breaches of contract on the part of the United States in connection with the enactment of Section 13224 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (OBRA). That provision repealed portions of the tax benefits that the Pulte Parties claim they were entitled to under the contract to acquire the failed Texas thrifts. The Pulte Parties also assert other claims concerning the contract, including that the United States (through the FDIC as receiver) improperly attempted to amend the failed thrifts’ pre-acquisition tax returns and that this attempt was made in an effort to deprive the Pulte Parties of tax benefits for which they had contracted.

       On August 17, 2001, the United States Court of Federal Claims ruled that the United States government is liable to the Pulte Parties for breach of contract by enacting Section 13224 of OBRA. In September 2003, the United States Court of Federal Claims issued final judgment that the Pulte Parties had been damaged by approximately $48.7 million as a result of the United States government’s breach of contract with them. The United States government and the Pulte Parties filed Notices of Appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in October 2003. Accordingly, any gain related to this litigation will be recognized only upon final resolution.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT

We, the management of Pulte Homes, Inc., are responsible for the integrity and objectivity of the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related information. The statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and, as such, include amounts that are based on our best judgments and estimates.

We maintain a system of internal accounting and disclosure controls designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that transactions and events are recorded properly and that accounting records may be relied upon for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and other financial information. While the Company is organized on the principle of decentralized management, appropriate control measures are also evidenced by well-defined organizational responsibilities, management selection, development and evaluation processes, communication techniques, financial planning and reporting systems and formalized procedures. In addition, internal auditors monitor the operation of our internal control system and report findings and recommendations to management and the Audit Committee, and corrective actions are taken to remedy deficiencies if and when they are identified.

Ernst & Young LLP, independent auditors, is engaged to audit our consolidated financial statements. Ernst & Young LLP maintains an understanding of our internal controls and conducts such tests and other auditing procedures considered necessary in the circumstances to express their opinion on our consolidated financial statements in the report that follows.

Our Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is composed solely of independent directors with the financial knowledge and experience to provide oversight. We review internal control matters and key accounting and financial reporting issues with the Audit Committee on a regular basis. In addition, the independent auditors, management and internal auditors regularly meet in private sessions with our Audit Committee to discuss the results of their work including observations on the adequacy of internal financial controls, the quality of financial reporting, confirm that they are properly discharging their responsibilities and other relevant matters.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Pulte Homes, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pulte Homes, Inc. as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Pulte Homes, Inc. at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed in 2003 its method of accounting for stock options and in 2002 its method of accounting for goodwill.

When Certificated Notes are presented to the Company's registrar with respect to the Notes (the "Registrar") with a request: (i) to register the transfer of such Certificated Notes; or (ii) to exchange such Certificated Notes for an equal principal amount of Certificated Notes of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Certificated Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange: (A) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing; and (B) are accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable: (x) if such Certificated Notes are being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Note); or (y) if such Certificated Notes are being transferred to the Company, a certification to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Note). -6- (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Certificated Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note. A Certificated Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Certificated Note, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, together with written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Trustee to make, an adjustment on its books and records with respect to such Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Global Note, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such increase, then the Trustee shall cancel such Certificated Note and cause, or direct the Trustee to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Trustee, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Certificated Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Certificated Note so canceled. If no Global Notes are then outstanding and the Global Note has not been previously exchanged for Certificated Notes pursuant to Section 4.02 of this Indenture Supplement, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of an Officers' Certificate, a new Global Note in the appropriate principal amount. (c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. (i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture Supplement (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver a written order given in accordance with the Depositary's procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Note or another Global Note and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred. (ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of Global Note from which such interest is being transferred. (iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture Supplement (other than the provisions set forth in Section 4.02 of this Indenture Supplement), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. -7- (d) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Note. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Certificated Notes, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by the Depositary to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Certificated Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the custodian, to reflect such reduction. (e) Obligations with Respect to Transfers of Notes. (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate, Certificated Notes and Global Notes at the Registrar's request. (ii) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessments, or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 906, 1107 and 1305 of the Indenture). (iii) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary. (iv) The Company shall not be required to make and the Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed. (v) All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture Supplement shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. (f) No Obligation of the Trustee. (i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or any other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or repurchase) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All -8- notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners. (ii) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture Supplement or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture Supplement, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

Any portion of a Global Note transferred pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in denominations of $1,000 of principal amount and any integral multiple thereof and registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct. (c) The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including holders of beneficial interests, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Notes. (d) In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 4.02(a)(i), (ii) or (iii) of this Indenture Supplement, the Company will promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Certificated Notes in fully registered form without interest coupons.

When Certificated Notes are presented to the Company's registrar with respect to the Notes (the "Registrar") with a request: (i) to register the transfer of such Certificated Notes; or (ii) to exchange such Certificated Notes for an equal principal amount of Certificated Notes of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Certificated Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange: (A) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing; and -6- (B) are accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable: (x) if such Certificated Notes are being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Note); or (y) if such Certificated Notes are being transferred to the Company, a certification to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Note). (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Certificated Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note. A Certificated Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Certificated Note, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, together with written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Trustee to make, an adjustment on its books and records with respect to such Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Global Note, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such increase, then the Trustee shall cancel such Certificated Note and cause, or direct the Trustee to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Trustee, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Certificated Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Certificated Note so canceled. If no Global Notes are then outstanding and the Global Note has not been previously exchanged for Certificated Notes pursuant to Section 4.02 of this Indenture Supplement, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of an Officers' Certificate, a new Global Note in the appropriate principal amount. (c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. (i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture Supplement (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver a written order given in accordance with the Depositary's procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Note or another Global Note and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred. -7- (ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of Global Note from which such interest is being transferred. (iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture Supplement (other than the provisions set forth in Section 4.02 of this Indenture Supplement), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. (d) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Note. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Certificated Notes, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by the Depositary to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Certificated Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the custodian, to reflect such reduction. (e) Obligations with Respect to Transfers of Notes. (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate, Certificated Notes and Global Notes at the Registrar's request. (ii) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessments, or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 906, 1107 and 1305 of the Indenture). (iii) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary. (iv) The Company shall not be required to make and the Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of -8- Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed. (v) All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture Supplement shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. (f) No Obligation of the Trustee. (i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or any other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or repurchase) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners. (ii) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture Supplement or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture Supplement, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

"Remaining Scheduled Payments" means, with respect to this Security, the remaining scheduled payments of the principal thereof to be redeemed and interest thereon that would be due after the related Redemption Date but for such redemption; provided, however, that, if such Redemption Date is not an Interest Payment Date with respect to this Security, the amount of the -4- next succeeding scheduled interest payment thereon will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued thereon to such Redemption Date. "Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any Redemption Date the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

(a) A Global Note deposited with the Depositary or with the Trustee as Trustee pursuant to Section 2.04 of this Indenture Supplement shall be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Certificated Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, only if such transfer complies with Section 305 of the Original Indenture and Section 4.03 of this Indenture Supplement and (i) the Company notifies the Trustee that the Depositary is no longer willing or able to act as a depositary or clearing system for the Notes or the Depositary ceases to be a "clearing agency" registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary or clearing system is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice or cessation, (ii) upon the -5- occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, or (iii) the Company, in its sole discretion, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Certificated Notes under the Indenture rather than have the Notes represented by a Global Security. (b) Any Global Note that is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustee, to be so transferred, in whole or from time to time in part, without charge, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, upon such transfer of each portion of such Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Certificated Notes of authorized denominations. Any portion of a Global Note transferred pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in denominations of $1,000 of principal amount and any integral multiple thereof and registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct. (c) The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including holders of beneficial interests, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Notes. (d) In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 4.02(a)(i), (ii) or (iii) of this Indenture Supplement, the Company will promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Certificated Notes in fully registered form without interest coupons. SECTION 4.03. Transfer and Exchange. (a) Transfer and Exchange of Certificated Notes. When Certificated Notes are presented to the Company's registrar with respect to the Notes (the "Registrar") with a request: (i) to register the transfer of such Certificated Notes; or (ii) to exchange such Certificated Notes for an equal principal amount of Certificated Notes of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met; provided, however, that the Certificated Notes surrendered for transfer or exchange: (A) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing; and (B) are accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable: (x) if such Certificated Notes are being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, a certification from such Holder to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Note); or -6- (y) if such Certificated Notes are being transferred to the Company, a certification to that effect (in the form set forth on the reverse side of the Note). (b) Restrictions on Transfer of a Certificated Note for a Beneficial Interest in a Global Note. A Certificated Note may not be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note except upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth below. Upon receipt by the Trustee of a Certificated Note, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar, together with written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Trustee to make, an adjustment on its books and records with respect to such Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Global Note, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such increase, then the Trustee shall cancel such Certificated Note and cause, or direct the Trustee to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Trustee, the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by the Global Note to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of the Certificated Note to be exchanged and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Certificated Note so canceled. If no Global Notes are then outstanding and the Global Note has not been previously exchanged for Certificated Notes pursuant to Section 4.02 of this Indenture Supplement, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of an Officers' Certificate, a new Global Note in the appropriate principal amount. (c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes. (i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture Supplement (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver a written order given in accordance with the Depositary's procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in such Global Note or another Global Note and such account shall be credited in accordance with such order with a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred. (ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of Global Note from which such interest is being transferred. (iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture Supplement (other than the provisions set forth in Section 4.02 of this Indenture Supplement), a Global Note -7- may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. (d) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Note. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Certificated Notes, transferred, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by the Depositary to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Certificated Notes, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Note, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the custodian, to reflect such reduction. (e) Obligations with Respect to Transfers of Notes. (i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate, Certificated Notes and Global Notes at the Registrar's request. (ii) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessments, or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charge payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 906, 1107 and 1305 of the Indenture). (iii) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary. (iv) The Company shall not be required to make and the Registrar need not register transfers or exchanges of Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of Notes to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed) or any Notes for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed. (v) All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture Supplement shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. (f) No Obligation of the Trustee. (i) The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner of a Global Note, a member of, or a participant in the Depositary or any other -8- Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery to any participant, member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice (including any notice of redemption or repurchase) or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes shall be given or made only to the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners. (ii) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture Supplement or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture Supplement, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.
