        <footnote id="F1">MP CA Homes LLC was the direct owner of a warrant to purchase 89,400,000 shares of Common Stock for an exercise price of
 $2.09732 per share of Common Stock (the &quot;Warrant&quot;).  On December 21, 2010, MP CA Homes LLC exercised the Warrant by paying
 the exercise price of $2.09732 per share of Common Stock, in cash for an aggregate $187,500,408.00. 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="F2">Although the Reporting Person does not have voting or investment control over shares held by MP CA Homes LLC, the Reporting
 Person may be deemed to have an indirect pecuniary interest in such shares through his indirect interest in a limited
 partner which holds an investment interest and carried 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.  The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial
 ownership of any of the reported securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">The Warrant was set to 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 November, 23, 2010, the date of
 the amendment of the Warrant.</footnote>
