        <footnote id="F1">The two transactions reported in Table II above arise from the amendment of an outstanding Warrant that granted MP CA Homes
 LLC the right to purchase 272,670 shares of Junior Convertible Preferred Stock (the &quot;Warrant&quot;) for an exercise price of
 $1344.26 per share of Junior Convertible Preferred Stock.  The 272,670 shares of Junior Convertible Preferred Stock that
 were represented by the Warrant were convertible into 89,400,000 shares of Common Stock.  The exercise price of $1344.26 per
 share of Junior Convertible Preferred Stock represented $4.10 multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
 upon conversion of each share of Junior Convertible Preferred Stock.  As amended, the Warrant grants MP CA Homes LLC the
 right to purchase, directly, 89,400,000 shares of Common Stock for an exercise price of $2.09732 per share of Common Stock.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">MP CA Homes LLC is the direct owner of the Warrant.  MatlinPatterson Global Opportunities Partners III L.P. and
 MatlinPatterson Global Opportunities Partners (Cayman) III L.P. (together, &quot;the Funds&quot;), hold 100 percent of the membership
 interests in MP CA Homes LLC.  MatlinPatterson Global Partners III LLC (the &quot;General Partner&quot;) is the general partner of the
 Funds.  MatlinPatterson Global Advisers LLC (the &quot;Adviser&quot;) is the investment adviser to the Funds.  MatlinPatterson Asset
 Management LLC holds 100 percent of the voting interest and equity of the Adviser and the General Partner.  MatlinPatterson
 LLC holds 100 percent of the equity of MatlinPatterson Asset Management LLC.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">Other than MP CA Homes LLC, each of the foregoing reporting persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by MP
 CA Homes LLC, except to the extent that such reporting person holds an indirect pecuniary interest therein, and the
 inclusion of these shares in this report shall not be deemed an admission of beneficial ownership of all of the reported
 shares for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F4">David J. Matlin is an employee of the Adviser and a holder of 50 percent of the membership interests in MatlinPatterson LLC.
 David J. Matlin may be deemed to have shared voting and investment control (together with Mark R. Patterson) over the shares
 of the Issuer represented by the Warrant held by MP CA Homes LLC.  He also has an indirect pecuniary interest in the Funds.
 His exact pecuniary interest therein is not readily determinable because it is subject to several variables, including
 without limitation, the internal rates of return of the Funds overall with respect to their indirect investment in the
 Issuer.  David J. Matlin disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the reported securities except to the extent of his
 pecuniary interest therein.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F5">The exercise price of the Warrant, as amended, is $2.09732 per share of Common Stock.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F6">The Warrant will expire one business day immediately following the earlier of (i) the consummation of the Issuer's cash
 tender offers for any and all of the Issuer's 9 1/4% senior subordinated notes due April 15, 2012, 6 1/4% senior notes due
 April 1, 2014 and 7 % senior notes due August 15, 2015 and (ii) the six month anniversary of the date of the amendment of
 the Warrant, entered into on November 23, 2010.</footnote>
