FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain of the matters discussed in this prospectus or incorporated herein constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In general, “forward-looking statements” can be identified by use of words such as “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “project,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “plan” and similar expressions. Our forward-looking statements represent our expectations and beliefs regarding future events. Important factors currently known to management that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include those factors described under the caption “Risk Factors” contained in our periodic filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and any prospectus supplement to this prospectus.

All forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain as they are based on various expectations and assumptions concerning future events and they are subject to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties which could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those projected. Our past performance or past or present economic conditions are not indicative of future performance or conditions. Due to these inherent uncertainties, current or potential investors in our securities are urged not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. In addition, we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or changes to projections over time.

RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

The following table sets forth our ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the periods indicated:

 

     Six Months Ended June 30,     

 

     Year Ended December 31,  
     2012      2011      2011      2010      2009      2008      2007  

Ratio of earnings to fixed charges(1)(2)

    
1.0x
  
    

  
                                       

 

 

(1) Ratio of earnings to fixed charges is calculated by dividing earnings, as defined, by fixed charges, as defined. For this purpose, “earnings” means income from continuing operations (plus cash distributions of income from unconsolidated joint ventures) before (a) income taxes, (b) homebuilding interest, (c) expensing of previously capitalized interest included in costs of sales, (d) interest portion of rent expense, and (e) income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures. For this purpose, “fixed charges” means homebuilding interest incurred, whether expensed or capitalized, and the interest portion of rent expense, and excludes interest expense from our financial services subsidiary of $1.1 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $1.7 million, $1.3 million, $2.1 million, $3.1 million and $6.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
(2) For the six months ended June 30, 2011, and the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007, our earnings were insufficient to cover fixed charges; the amount of additional earnings needed to cover fixed charges for such periods were $49.5 million, $62.8 million, $23.1 million, $75.2 million, $1,127.8 million and $656.6 million, respectively.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

The following is a general description of the terms and provisions of the securities we may offer and sell by this prospectus. These summaries are not meant to be complete. This prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement will contain the material terms and conditions of each security. The prospectus supplement may add, update or change the terms and conditions of the securities as described in this prospectus.

COMMON STOCK, PREFERRED STOCK, STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT AND STOCKHOLDERS’ RIGHTS AGREEMENT

Our authorized capital stock consists of 600,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value. Our certificate of incorporation, as amended to date, does not authorize any other classes of capital stock.

Common Stock

We have one existing class of common stock. Holders of shares of our existing common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by our stockholders and may not cumulate votes for the election of directors.

The holders of shares of our existing common stock are entitled to receive ratably dividends as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of funds legally available for dividend payments, subject to any dividend preferences of any holders of any other series of common stock and preferred stock. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after full payment of all liabilities and liquidation preferences of any other series of common stock and any preferred stock, the holders of shares of our existing common stock are entitled to share ratably in all remaining assets. Our existing common stock has no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the shares of our existing common stock.

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue new series of common stock without stockholder approval. Subject to the Delaware corporation law, our board of directors may:

 

 

fix or alter the designations, powers and preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other rights, if any, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions of any new series of common stock, including, without limitation:

 

   

dividend rights and whether dividends are cumulative;

 

   

conversion rights, if any;

 

   

voting rights, including the number of votes, if any, per share, as well as the number of members, if any, of the board or the percentage of members, if any, of the board each series of common stock may be entitled to elect; and

 

   

rights and terms of redemption, including sinking fund provisions, if any, redemption price and liquidation preferences of any series of common stock;

 

 

fix the number of shares constituting any series and the designations of each series; and

 

 

increase or decrease the number of shares of any series of common stock but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding.

Our board of directors has no power to alter the rights of any outstanding shares of our common stock. Although we currently do not intend to do so, our board of directors, without stockholder approval, may issue a new series of common stock with rights that could negatively affect the voting power or other rights of our existing common stockholders.

Our common stock is listed under the symbol “SPF” on the New York Stock Exchange. Computershare is the Transfer Agent and Registrar for our common stock.

Preferred stock

As of the date of this prospectus, there are 5,000,000 authorized shares of Series B junior participating convertible preferred stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”), of which 450,829 shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding and convertible into 147.8 million shares of our common stock. The number of shares of common stock into which our Series B Preferred Stock is convertible is determined by dividing $1,000 by the applicable conversion price ($3.05, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments) plus cash in lieu of fractional shares. The Series B Preferred Stock ranks pari passu with our common stock and junior to all other preferred stock of the Company, other than a class or series of preferred stock, the terms of which expressly provide that such class of series will rank on parity with the Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock has no liquidation preference over our common stock.

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible at the holder’s option into shares of our common stock provided that no holder, with its affiliates, may beneficially own total voting power of our voting stock in excess of 49%. The Series B Preferred Stock also mandatorily converts into our common stock upon its sale, transfer or other disposition by MP CA Homes LLC (“MatlinPatterson”) or its affiliates to an unaffiliated third party. The Series B Preferred Stock votes together with our common stock on all matters upon which holders of our common stock are entitled to vote. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to such number of votes as the number of shares of our common stock into which such share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, provided that the aggregate votes attributable to such shares with respect to any holder of Series B Preferred Stock (including its affiliates), taking into consideration any other voting securities of the Company held by such stockholder, cannot exceed more than 49% of the total voting power of the voting stock of the Company. If the board of directors declares and pays a dividend on the common stock, then the board of directors is required to declare and pay to holders of Series B Preferred Stock a dividend in an amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the dividend payable on the number of shares of common stock into which each share of Series B Preferred Stock is then convertible. As of the date of this prospectus, the outstanding shares of common stock (89.4 million shares) and Series B Preferred Stock owned by MatlinPatterson represented approximately 68% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding on an if-converted basis.

Our board of directors may, without stockholder approval, issue in addition to the authorized but unissued shares of Series B Preferred Stock up to 5,000,000 additional shares of our undesignated preferred stock in one or more series and, subject to Delaware corporation law, may:

 

   

fix or alter the designations, powers and preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other rights, if any, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions of any series of preferred stock, including without limitation:

 

   

dividend rights and whether dividends are cumulative;

 

   

conversion rights, if any;

 

   

voting rights, including the number of votes, if any, per share, as well as the number of members, if any, of the board or the percentage of members, if any, of the board each class or series of preferred stock may be entitled to elect; and

 

   

rights and terms of redemption, including sinking fund provisions, if any, redemption price and liquidation preferences of any series of preferred stock;

 

   

fix the number of shares constituting any series and the designations of each series; and

 

   

increase or decrease the number of shares of any series of preferred stock if but not below the number of shares of the series then outstanding.

Our board of directors has no power to alter the rights of any outstanding shares of our preferred stock. Although we currently do not intend to do so, our board of directors may issue shares of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights which could negatively affect the voting power or other rights of our common stockholders, and the board could take that action without stockholder approval.

Effect of new issuance

If the board of directors were to approve the issuance of a new series of common stock or preferred stock, the issuance of such shares could:

 

   

decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to existing common stockholders;

 

   

make removal of the present management more difficult;

 

   

result in restrictions upon the payment of dividends and other distributions to the existing common stockholders;

 

   

delay or prevent a change in control of the Company; and

 

   

limit the price that investors are willing to pay in the future for our existing common stock.

Stockholders agreement

On June 27, 2008, we and MatlinPatterson entered into a stockholders agreement. The stockholders agreement provides, among other matters, as follows:

Board representation. For so long as MatlinPatterson and its affiliates own at least 10% of the total voting power of the Company, it will be entitled to designate such number of directors to serve on the Company’s board of directors as would be proportionate to the total voting power beneficially owned by MatlinPatterson and its affiliates, provided that the number of directors appointed by MatlinPatterson shall never exceed one person less than a majority of the directors then serving on the Company’s board of directors. MatlinPatterson has the right to replace any director designated by it, at any time, with or without cause, and fill any vacancy caused by the death, resignation, removal or disability, or other reason, of any director designated by it. To the extent MatlinPatterson and its affiliates decrease their holdings of voting stock of the Company, the Company has the right to request the resignation of directors designated by MatlinPatterson to maintain such appointments in proportion to MatlinPatterson’s holdings of voting stock. Each committee of the board of directors, other than the audit committee or any committee formed to consider a transaction between the Company and MatlinPatterson or its affiliates, shall contain at least one director designated by MatlinPatterson.

Corporate opportunities. As long as MatlinPatterson, its director designees and their affiliates comply with the confidentiality obligations in the stockholders agreement, the Company has renounced certain corporate and investment opportunities that may come to the attention of MatlinPatterson, its director designees and their affiliates. Such provisions do not apply to opportunities that come to the attention of such persons or entities as a result of their position with the Company or that of their affiliates with the Company.

Amendments to certain documents. The Company has agreed not to amend its certificate of incorporation or bylaws in any manner inconsistent with the stockholders agreement or to make certain amendments to the Company’s stockholder rights plan.

Standstill and transfer restrictions. MatlinPatterson has agreed to certain standstill provisions and restrictions on its and its affiliates’ ability to transfer certain of our securities.

Registration rights. MatlinPatterson is entitled to customary demand and piggyback registration rights.

Stockholders’ rights agreement

Effective December 20, 2011, we entered into an Amended and Restated Rights Agreement with Mellon Investor Services LLC. The Amended Rights Agreement amended and restated in its entirety the Company’s rights agreement, a form of which had been in effect since December 31, 2001. Our Board of Directors amended and restated the original rights agreement to update the exercise price of each preferred stock purchase right issued pursuant thereto to $20.00, extend the expiration date of such rights and the rights agreement for an additional three year period to December 31, 2014, and to make certain other clarifying and technical amendments. Each share of our common stock issued by us (prior to the expiration of the rights agreement or distribution of the rights) will have attached a right. In this prospectus, unless the context requires otherwise, all references to our common stock include the accompanying rights.

Currently, the rights are not exercisable and trade with our common stock. If the rights become exercisable, each full right, unless held by a person or group that beneficially owns more than 15% of our outstanding voting stock, will initially entitle the holder to purchase one one-hundredth of one share of our Series A Junior Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock, at an initial exercise price of $20.00, subject to adjustment. The rights will become exercisable only after a person or group has acquired, or publicly announced an intention to acquire through a tender offer or exchange offer, 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock. Under some circumstances, including the existence of a 15% acquiring person or group, each holder of a right, other than the acquiring person or group or certain transferees thereof, will be entitled to purchase at the right’s then current exercise price, shares of our common stock having a market value equal to two times the exercise price. If we are acquired by another entity after a person or group acquires 15% or more of our voting stock, each holder of a right, other than the acquiring person or group or certain transferees thereof, will be entitled to purchase shares of common stock of the acquiring entity having a market value of two times the right’s then current exercise price. The rights may be redeemed at a price of $0.001 per right until the tenth business day after a person or group acquires 15% or more of our voting stock unless we have merged or been acquired or the rights have expired prior to such date. The rights will expire on December 31, 2014, unless earlier redeemed, exchanged or exercised. The rights do not have voting or dividend rights, and until they become exercisable, do not have a dilutive effect on our earnings.

MatlinPatterson and its affiliates are defined as “Exempt Persons” under the rights agreement, and therefore will not be deemed an acquiring person, provided that MatlinPatterson and its affiliates will immediately cease to be an “Exempt Person” if a majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors who were not designated by MatlinPatterson pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, whether or not such members constitute a quorum of the board, determine, in good faith, that (A) MatlinPatterson or its affiliates are in material breach of the Stockholders Agreement, or that the Stockholders Agreement is no longer in full force and effect, and (B) that MatlinPatterson and its affiliates shall be deemed no longer to be an “Exempt Person” under the rights agreement.

Table of Contents

The terms of the rights are fully described in the amended and restated rights agreement between Mellon Investor Services LLC, as rights agent, and us. You should refer to the rights agreement, as amended, for a more detailed description of the terms and provisions of the rights. A copy of the amended rights agreement has been filed with and is publicly available at or from the SEC as described under the heading “Where you can find more information.”

Our rights may make more difficult or discourage an acquisition of the company that is deemed undesirable by our board of directors by causing substantial dilution to a person or group that attempts to acquire us on terms or in a manner not approved by our board of directors, except for an acquisition offer conditioned upon the purchase or redemption of our rights.

Possible anti-takeover effects of Delaware law and relevant provisions of our certificate of incorporation

In addition to our rights agreement, provisions of Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may make more difficult the acquisition of the company by tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise. For example:

 

   

Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law prohibits certain publicly-held Delaware corporations from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years following the time such person became an interested stockholder unless the business combination is approved in a specified manner. Generally, an interested stockholder is a person who, together with its affiliates and associates, owns 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock, or is affiliated with the corporation and owns or owned 15% of the corporation’s voting stock within three years before the business combination.

 

   

Our certificate of incorporation provides that stockholder action can be taken only at an annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be taken by written consent without a meeting, provided however for as long as MatlinPatterson and its affiliates hold at least 40% of our voting power, any action permitted to be taken by our stockholders can be effected by written consent signed by holders of our capital stock having not less than the minimum number of votes necessary to authorize such action at a meeting at which all shares of capital stock entitled to vote thereon are present and voted. Special meetings of stockholders may be called only by a majority of the members of our board of directors or by a committee thereof which has been duly provided the power and authority to call such meetings.

 

   

As discussed above, our certificate of incorporation permits our board of directors to issue a new series of common stock or preferred stock with terms that may make an acquisition by a third person more difficult or less attractive.

 

   

Our bylaws provide time limitations on stockholders who desire to present nominations for election to our board of directors or propose matters that can be acted upon at stockholders’ meetings.

Copies of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, each as amended, have been filed with and are publicly available at or from the SEC as described under the heading “Where you can find more information.”

DEBT SECURITIES

We may offer senior, senior subordinated or subordinated debt securities pursuant to this prospectus. Senior debt securities will be issued under a senior debt indenture, senior subordinated debt securities under a senior subordinated debt indenture and subordinated debt securities under a subordinated debt indenture. We have filed a senior debt securities indenture, a senior subordinated debt indenture, and the form of a subordinated debt indenture, as exhibits to the registration statement filed with the SEC, of which this prospectus is a part. The debt securities will be issued under the indentures filed, supplemented to reflect the terms of such debt securities. References to an “indenture” below are references to the senior debt indenture, the senior subordinated debt indenture or the subordinated debt indenture, as applicable, under which a particular debt security is issued. The senior debt indenture, senior subordinated debt indenture and subordinated debt indenture are collectively referred to in this description as the “indentures.” The indentures are governed by the Trust Indenture Act. The indentures may be amended or supplemented from time to time. We will file any supplements or amendments to the indentures as exhibits to the registration statement filed with the SEC, of which this prospectus is a part. You may inspect the indentures and all amendments and supplements thereto at the office of the trustee, or as described below under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information.” The prospectus supplement for each series of debt securities will state the name of the trustee for such series.

Table of Contents

Guarantees

Each prospectus supplement related to the issue of debt securities will also describe any guarantees by our direct and indirect 100% owned subsidiaries that may guarantee such debt securities, including the terms of subordination, if any, of any such guarantee. The guarantees will be full and unconditional and joint and several.

The indentures governing our outstanding securities provide that, in the event that any guarantee of a guarantor constitutes a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, the guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the applicable guarantor, result in the obligations of such guarantor under its guarantees not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Any guarantor may be released as a guarantor, and its guarantee terminated upon certain sales of all or substantially all of its assets (whether by merger or otherwise), if such sale is in compliance with the terms of the indenture, the legal defeasance of the respective series of notes and its guarantees, the designation of such guarantor as an unrestricted subsidiary (as defined in the indenture), in accordance with the terms of the indenture, or as otherwise described in the prospectus supplement.

Events of Default and Remedies

An event of default with respect to any series of debt securities will be defined in the indenture or applicable supplemental indenture as being:

 

 

our default for 30 days in payment of any installment of interest on any debt security of that series;

 

 

our default in payment when due of the principal of or any premium on any of the debt securities of that series;

 

 

default by us in the observance or performance of any covenants in the indenture or the notes of that series, provided that with respect to certain of those covenants, we have 60 days to cure such default after we receive notice thereof from the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of that series of debt securities then outstanding;

 

9


Table of Contents
 

certain events involving our bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization; and

 

 

any additional events of default set forth in the prospectus supplement applicable to that series of debt securities.

The trustee may withhold notice to the holders of any series of debt securities of any default, except a default in payment of principal or any premium or interest with respect to that series of debt securities, if the trustee determines it in the interest of the holders of the series of debt securities to do so.

If certain events involving our bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization occur, all amounts of principal and interest due to the holders of such series of debt securities will become immediately due and payable. If any other event of default has occurred and is continuing with respect to any series of debt securities, the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of that series of debt securities then outstanding may declare the principal of all of the debt securities of that series to be due and payable immediately. However, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of that series then outstanding by written notice to the trustee and to us may waive any default or event of default with respect to that series of debt securities, other than any continuing event of default in payment of principal or interest. Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities of any series may rescind an acceleration with respect to that series and its consequences, except an acceleration due to a default resulting from continuing nonpayment of principal or interest on that series, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing events of default with respect to that series have been cured or waived.

The holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the debt securities of any series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceedings for any remedy available to the trustee with respect to that series, subject to limitations specified in the indenture or supplemental indenture.

Defeasance

The indenture provides that we, at our option, may:

 

 

terminate all our obligations under any covenant in the indenture as they relate to any particular series of debt securities, other than the obligation to pay any interest on and the principal of the debt securities of that series and certain other obligations, after which such securities shall be deemed to be not outstanding for the purpose of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of the holders of such debt securities in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be outstanding for all other purposes under the indenture; and

 

 

terminate all of our obligations under the indenture as they relate to any particular series of debt securities, except the rights of holders to receive from the trust fund created therefor payment in respect of principal and interest and obligations relating to such defeasance, after which we shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such series of debt securities.

To exercise any such option, we are required, among other things, to:

 

 

deposit in trust with the trustee, under an irrevocable trust and security agreement, money or United States government obligations or a combination thereof in an amount and at such times sufficient to pay principal of and any interest on the debt securities of that series to their maturity or redemption; and

 

 

comply with other conditions, including delivery to the trustee of an opinion of counsel (in the case of the first option in form reasonably satisfactory to the trustee and in the case of the second option to the effect that (1) we have received from, or there has been published by the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or (2) since the issue date of such series of debt securities there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law), in each case to the effect that holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of our exercise of the right and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case otherwise.

Transfer and Exchange

A holder will be able to transfer or exchange debt securities only in accordance with the indenture. The registrar may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the indenture.

Amendment, Supplement and Waiver

Without the consent of any holder, we and the trustee may amend or supplement the indenture or the debt securities to:

 

 

add covenants, agreements and obligations applicable to us for the benefit of the holders of any series of debt securities or to surrender any right or power conferred by the indenture upon us;

 

10


Table of Contents
 

evidence the assumption by a successor corporation of our obligations under the indenture and any series of debt securities;

 

 

appoint a successor trustee with respect to any series of debt securities and to add to or change any provision of the indenture as is necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of any trusts created pursuant to the indenture by more than one trustee;

 

 

establish the form or terms of any series of unissued debt securities;

 

 

provide that specific provisions of the indenture will not apply to a particular series of unissued debt securities;

 

 

provide for uncertificated debt securities in addition to or in place of certificated debt securities;

 

 

cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;

 

 

secure the debt securities; or

 

 

make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of debt securities.

With the exceptions discussed below, we and the trustee may amend or supplement the indenture or the debt securities of a particular series with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the affected series then outstanding. In addition, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of that series then outstanding may waive any existing default under, or compliance with, any provision of the indenture relating to a particular series of debt securities, other than any continuing event of default in payment of interest or principal. These consents and waivers may be obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for debt securities.

Without the consent of each holder affected, we and the trustee may not:

 

 

reduce the amount of debt securities of any series whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

 

 

reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest;

 

 

reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any debt security or alter any provision with respect to redemptions or mandatory offers to repurchase debt securities;

 

 

make any debt security payable at a place or in money other than that stated in the debt security;

 

 

modify certain provisions of the indenture relating to waivers that require the consent of holders;

 

 

modify the provision confirming that the rights of holders to receive payment of principal and interest with respect to any debt security, on or after the respective due dates, or to bring suit to enforce such payment on or after such respective dates;

 

 

adversely modify the ranking or priority of the debt securities; or

 

 

waive a continuing default in the payment of principal of or interest on the debt securities.

The right of any holder to participate in any consent required or sought pursuant to any provision of the indenture, and our obligation to obtain any consent otherwise required from that holder, may be subject to the requirement that the holder shall have been the holder of record of any debt securities with respect to which the consent is required or sought as of a date identified by the trustee in a notice furnished to holders in accordance with the indenture.

Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will be issued in book-entry form and will be represented by one or more notes in registered global form. The global notes will be deposited with the trustee as custodian for The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as DTC’s nominee or such other name as may be requested by DTC. DTC will maintain the notes in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof through its book-entry facilities. Purchases and sales of ownership interests in the debt securities will be accomplished by entries on the books of direct and indirect participants in the DTC system.

Under the terms of the indenture, we and the trustee may treat the persons in whose names any notes, including the global notes, are registered as the owners thereof for the purpose of receiving payments and for any and all other purposes whatsoever. Therefore so long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of the global notes, DTC or such nominee will be considered the sole holder of outstanding notes under the indenture. We or the trustee may give effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or its nominee.

 

11


Table of Contents

A global note may not be transferred except as a whole by DTC, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in the global note may be transferred or exchanged for definitive securities in accordance with the rules and procedures of DTC. In addition, a global note may be exchangeable for notes in definitive form if:

 

 

DTC notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a depositary and we do not appoint a successor within 90 days; or

 

 

we, at our option, notify the trustee in writing that we elect to cause the issuance of notes in definitive form under the indenture.

In each instance, upon surrender by DTC or its nominee of the global note, notes in definitive form will be issued to each person that DTC or its nominee identifies as being the beneficial owner of the related notes.

Under the indenture, the holder of any global note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any person, including its participants and persons who may hold interests through DTC participants, to take any action which a holder is entitled to take under the indenture.

Concerning the Trustee

In case an event of default occurs and is not cured, the trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to use the degree of care and skill as a prudent person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of its own affairs. The trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power under the indenture, including proceeding to enforce a lien in an event of default, unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

Governing Law

The laws of the State of New York will govern the indenture and the debt securities.

through agents;

 

 

to or through underwriters;

directly to purchasers, through a specific bidding or auction process or otherwise; or

 

 

through a combination of any such methods of sale.

Agents, underwriters or broker-dealers may be paid compensation for offering and selling the securities. That compensation may be in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions to be received from us, from the purchasers of the securities or from both us and the purchasers. The compensation received may be in excess of customary discounts, concessions or commissions. Any underwriters, dealers, agents or other investors participating in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters,” as that term is defined in the Securities Act, and compensation and profits received by them on sale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting commissions, as that term is defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Act.

Each time the securities are offered by this prospectus, the prospectus supplement, if required, will set forth:

 

 

the name of any underwriter, dealer or agent involved in the offer and sale of the securities;

 

 

the terms of the offering;

 

 

any discounts concessions or commissions and other items constituting compensation received by the underwriters, broker-dealers or agents;

 

 

any over-allotment option under which any underwriters may purchase additional securities from us;

 

 

any initial public offering price;

 

 

any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers;

 

 

any securities exchanges on which the securities may be listed; and

 

 

the anticipated date of delivery of the securities.

 

13


Table of Contents

The securities may be sold at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices relating to the prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The distribution of securities may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions, by means of one or more of the following transactions, which may include crosses or block trades:

 

 

exchange offers or other transactions on the New York Stock Exchange or any other organized market where the securities may be traded;

 

 

in the over-the-counter market;

 

 

in negotiated transactions;

 

 

through put or call option transactions relating to the securities;

 

 

under delayed delivery contracts or other contractual commitments; or

 

 

a combination of such methods of sale.

If underwriters are used in a sale, securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions. Securities may be offered to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. If an underwriter or underwriters are used in the sale of securities, an underwriting agreement will be executed with the underwriter or underwriters at the time an agreement for the sale is reached. This prospectus and the prospectus supplement will be used by the underwriters to resell the securities.

To comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the securities offered by this prospectus will be offered and sold in those states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers.

Agents, underwriters and dealers may be entitled under agreements entered into with us to indemnification by us against specified liabilities, including liabilities incurred under the Securities Act, or to contribution by us to payments they may be required to make in respect of such liabilities. The prospectus supplement will describe the terms and conditions of such indemnification or contribution. Some of the agents, underwriters or dealers, or their respective affiliates may be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business. We will describe in the prospectus supplement naming the underwriter the nature of any such relationship.

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, each other class or series of securities issued will be a new issue with no established trading market. We may elect to list any other class or series of securities on any exchange, but we are not currently obligated to do so. It is possible that one or more underwriters, if any, may make a market in a class or series of securities, but the underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. We cannot give any assurance as to the liquidity of the trading market for any of the securities.

Certain persons participating in the offering may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short-covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act. We make no representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that such transactions may have on the price of the securities. For a description of these activities, see the information under the heading “Underwriting” in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Concurrently with any offering of debt securities that are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our common stock, we may offer from time to time our common stock by means of a separate prospectus supplement. In addition, we may agree to loan common stock to affiliates of the underwriters, dealers or agents for such debt securities or common stock, which affiliates we refer to as the “share borrowers,” pursuant to a share lending agreement to be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Such share borrowers may use the borrowed shares or the proceeds therefrom to facilitate transactions by which investors in the debt securities may hedge their investments in such debt securities. In connection with facilitating those transactions, the share borrowers and their affiliates may receive customary, negotiated fees from investors.

In connection with any offering of debt securities that are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our common stock, we may enter into convertible debt security hedge transactions with affiliates of the underwriters. Such convertible debt security hedge transactions may reduce the potential dilution to us upon conversion of such debt securities. We may apply a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the debt securities to pay the cost of such convertible debt security hedge transactions.

Table of Contents

In connection with establishing an initial hedge of these transactions, the hedge counterparty or its affiliates may enter into various derivative transactions with respect to our common stock, concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of such debt securities. These activities could have the effect of increasing or preventing a decline in the price of our common stock concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of such debt securities.

In addition, the hedge counterparty or its affiliates will likely modify its hedge position following the pricing of such debt securities from time to time by entering into or unwinding various derivative transactions and/or purchasing or selling our common stock in secondary market transactions prior to the maturity of such debt securities (including during any settlement period in respect of any conversion of such debt securities). The effect, if any, of any of these transactions and activities on the market price of our common stock or such debt securities will depend in part on market conditions and cannot be ascertained at this time. Any of these activities could impact the price of our common stock and the value of such debt securities and, as a result, the value of the consideration and the number of shares, if any, that an investor would receive upon conversion of such debt securities and, under certain circumstances, such investor’s ability to convert such debt securities.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Standard Pacific Corp.

Standard Pacific Corp. is a Delaware corporation. Section 145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.

Section 145(b) of the DGCL provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.

Further subsections of Section 145 of the DGCL provide that:

 

 

to the extent a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145, or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith;

 

 

the indemnification and advancement of expenses provided for pursuant to Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise; and

 

II-1


Table of Contents
 

the corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Section 145 of the DGCL.

Section 145 of the DGCL makes provision for the indemnification of officers and directors in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify officers and directors of Standard Pacific Corp. under certain circumstances from liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Standard Pacific Corp.’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide, in effect, that, to the fullest extent and under the circumstances permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, Standard Pacific Corp. will indemnify any person (or the estate of any person) who was or is a party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether or not by or in the right of Standard Pacific Corp., and whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of Standard Pacific Corp., or is or was serving at the request of Standard Pacific Corp. as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. Standard Pacific Corp. may, in its discretion, similarly indemnify its employees and agents.

Standard Pacific Corp. has entered into indemnification agreements with its officers and directors.

Standard Pacific Corp.’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, relieves each of its directors from monetary damages to Standard Pacific Corp. or its stockholders for breach of such director’s fiduciary duty as a director to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. Under Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, a corporation may relieve its directors from personal liability to such corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of their fiduciary duty as directors except (i) for a breach of the duty of loyalty, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith, or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for willful or negligent violations of certain provisions in the DGCL imposing certain requirements with respect to stock repurchases, redemptions and dividends, or (iv) for any transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Standard Pacific Corp. currently maintains insurance policies which, within the limits and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, cover certain expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by directors and officers in connection with proceedings that may be brought against them as a result of an act or omission committed or suffered while acting as a director or officer of Standard Pacific Corp.

Co-Registrants

Certain officers and other employees of Standard Pacific Corp. serve at the request of Standard Pacific Corp. as a director, officer, employee or agent of the co-registrants, and thus may be entitled to indemnification under the provisions set forth above. In addition to potential indemnification by Standard Pacific Corp., the directors, officers, employees and agents of the co-registrants are also entitled to indemnification and exculpation for certain monetary damages to the extent provided in the applicable co-registrant’s organizational documents or under the laws under which the co-registrants are organized as described below.

Delaware Corporations

The co-registrants that are Delaware corporations are subject to the provisions of the DGCL described above with respect to Standard Pacific Corp. The certificates of incorporation and bylaws of these co-registrants provide, in effect, that, to the fullest extent and under the circumstances permitted by the DGCL, each co-registrant will indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether or not by or in the right of such co-registrant, and whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of such co-registrant, or is or was serving at the request of such co-registrant as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

Delaware Limited Liability Companies

The co-registrants that are Delaware limited liability companies are subject to Section 18-108 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, which provides that, subject to such standards and restrictions, if any, as are set forth in its limited liability company agreement, a limited liability company may, and shall have the power to, indemnify and hold harmless any member or manager or other person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever.

The limited liability company agreement of Standard Pacific of Tonner Hills, LLC provides that such co-registrant shall indemnify and hold harmless the members, managers and officers of such co-registrant (and its affiliates) against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses and liabilities (including any investigation, legal and other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with, and any amounts paid in settlement of, any action, suit, proceeding or claim) of any kind or nature whatsoever that such indemnified person may at any time become subject to or liable for by reason of (i) the formation, operation or termination of such

co-registrant, (ii) the indemnified person’s acting as a member, manager or officer under the limited liability company agreement of such co-registrant, or (iii) the authorized actions of such indemnified person in connection with the conduct of the affairs of such co-registrant (including, without limitation, indemnification against negligence, gross negligence or breach of duty). However, indemnification is not provided for liability resulting from (x) any act or omission that involves actual fraud or willful misconduct or (y) any transaction from which an improper personal benefit is derived. The limited liability company agreement of such co-registrant also provides for advancement of costs and expenses that are subject to indemnification, so long as the indemnified person provides the co-registrant with a written undertaking to reimburse the co-registrant for all amounts so advanced, if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification. The limited liability agreement of Standard Pacific of Tonner Hills, LLC also provides that no officer shall have any personal liability whatsoever to such co-registrant on account of such officer’s status as an officer or by reason of such officer’s acts or omissions in connection with the conduct of the business of such co-registrant, except for liability arising from (i) any act or omission that involves actual fraud or willful misconduct or (ii) any transaction from which such officer derived improper personal benefit. Further, the limited liability company agreement of Standard Pacific of the Carolinas, LLC provides that such co-registrant shall indemnify and hold harmless each director against any loss, claim, damage, or expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs arising out of any claim, demand, suit or action related to the performance or non-performance of any act concerning the business or the activities of such co-registrant, unless such direct is guilty of gross negligence, gross misconduct, or willful malfeasance in connection therewith.

California Limited Liability Companies

The co-registrant that is a California limited liability company is subject to Section 17155 of the Beverly-Killea Limited Liability Company Act, which provides that, except for a breach of certain fiduciary duties, the articles of organization or written operating agreement of a limited liability company may provide for indemnification of any person, including, without limitation, any manager, member, officer, employee or agent of the limited liability company, against judgments, settlements, penalties, fines or expenses of any kind incurred as a result of acting in that capacity. Such section also provides that a limited liability company shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any manager, member, officer, employee or agent of the limited liability company against any liability asserted against or incurred by the person in that capacity or arising out of the person’s status as a manager, member, officer, employee, or agent of the limited liability company.

The limited liability company agreement of this co-registrant provides that such co-registrant shall indemnify and hold harmless the member of such co-registrant (Standard Pacific Corp.) to the fullest extent allowed by the law of the State of California.

Florida General Partnerships

The co-registrants that are Florida general partnerships are subject to Section 620.8401(3) of the Florida Revised Uniform Partnership Act, which provides that a partnership shall indemnify a partner for liabilities incurred by the partner in the ordinary course of the business of the partnership or for the preservation of its business or property.

The partnership agreements of the Florida general partnerships provide that the partnerships, their receivers or their trustees shall indemnify, save harmless, and pay all judgments and claims against any partner relating to any liability or damage incurred by reason of any act performed or omitted to be performed by such partner in connection with the business of the partnership, including attorneys’ fees incurred by such partner in connection with the defense of any action based on any such act or omission. In addition, in the event of any action by one partner against another partner in connection with the partnership, including a partnership derivative suit, the partnership shall indemnify, save harmless, and pay all expenses of such other partner, including attorney’s fees, incurred in the defense of such action, if the other partner is successful in such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, no partner shall be indemnified from any liability for fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct, or gross negligence.

  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

  (4) That, for purposes of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

 

  (i) Each prospectus filed by the registrants pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

 

  (ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

 

  (5) That, for purposes of determining liability of the registrants under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrants undertake that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrants pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrants will be sellers to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

  (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrants relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

Table of Contents
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions described in Item 15, or otherwise, the registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrants of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of any registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, each appropriate registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

(d) The undersigned registrants hereby undertake to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.

Re:

  

Standard Pacific Corp.

Registration Statementon Form S-3

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Standard Pacific Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries listed on Annex A hereto (the “Guarantors”), in connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the registration under the Securities Act and the proposed issuance and sale from time to time pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, together or separately and in one or more series (if applicable) of:

(i) the Company’s unsecured debt securities, which may either be senior debt securities (“Senior Debt Securities”), senior subordinated debt securities (“Senior Subordinated Debt Securities”) or subordinated debt securities (the “Subordinated Debt Securities” and, collectively with the Senior Debt Securities and the Senior Subordinated Debt Securities, the “Debt Securities”);

(ii) guarantees of the Debt Securities by the Guarantors (the “Debt Securities Guarantees”); and

(iii) shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) and associated preferred share purchase rights (the “Rights”), the terms of which are set forth in the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement between the Company and Mellon Investor Services LLC, as rights agent, dated as of December 20, 2011 (the “Rights Agreement”).

The Debt Securities, Debt Securities Guarantees, Common Stock and Rights are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.” The Senior Debt Securities are to be issued under an


Standard Pacific Corp.

July 31, 2012

Page 2

indenture dated as of April 1, 1999, between the Company and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A. (as successor-in-interest to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association, Bank One Trust Company, N.A. and The First National Bank of Chicago), as indenture trustee (the “Senior Base Indenture”). The Senior Subordinated Debt Securities are to be issued under an indenture dated as of April 10, 2002, between the Company and the Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor in interest to Bank One Trust Company, N.A. and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association), as indenture trustee (the “Senior Subordinated Base Indenture”). The Subordinated Debt Securities are to be issued under an indenture to be entered into between the Company and a financial institution to be named at the time such indenture is executed, as indenture trustee (the “Subordinated Base Indenture,” and together with the Senior Base Indenture and the Senior Subordinated Base Indenture, the “Base Indentures”).

In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction as being true and complete copies of the originals, of the Senior Base Indenture, the Senior Subordinated Base Indenture, the form of Subordinated Base Indenture, forms of the Debt Securities, specimen Common Stock and Rights certificates, the Rights Agreement and such other documents, corporate records, certificates of officers of the Company and the Guarantors and of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable to enable us to render these opinions. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. As to any facts material to these opinions, we have relied to the extent we deemed appropriate and without independent investigation upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and the Guarantors and others.

We have assumed without independent investigation that:

(i) at the time any Securities are sold pursuant to the Registration Statement (the “Relevant Time”), the Registration Statement and any supplements and amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments) will be effective and will comply with all applicable laws;

(ii) at the Relevant Time, a prospectus supplement will have been prepared and filed with the Commission describing the Securities offered thereby and all related documentation and will comply with all applicable laws;

(iii) all Securities will be issued and sold in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the applicable prospectus supplement;

(iv) at the Relevant Time, all corporate or other action required to be taken by the Company and any Guarantor to duly authorize each proposed issuance of Securities and any related documentation (including (i) the due reservation of any shares of Common Stock


Standard Pacific Corp.

July 31, 2012

Page 3

for issuance upon conversion of any Securities for Common Stock (a “Convertible Security”), and (ii) the execution (in the case of certificated Securities), delivery and performance of the Securities and any related documentation referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 below) shall have been duly completed and shall remain in full force and effect;

(v) upon issuance of any Common Stock, including upon conversion of any Convertible Security, the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding will not exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is then authorized to issue under its certificate of incorporation and other relevant documents;

(vi) in the case of Debt Securities and Debt Securities Guarantees, at the Relevant Time, the relevant trustee shall have been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”), a Statement of Eligibility of the relevant trustee on Form T-1 shall have been properly filed with the Commission and the relevant Base Indenture shall have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and all other parties thereto and duly qualified under the TIA; and

(vii) at the Relevant Time, a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement and any other necessary agreement with respect to any Securities offered or issued will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action of the Company and each Guarantor and duly executed and delivered by the Company, any Guarantor and the other parties thereto.

Based on the foregoing and in reliance thereon, and subject to the assumptions, exceptions, qualifications and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

1. With respect to any Debt Securities and related Debt Securities Guarantees, when:

 

  a. the Senior Subordinated Base Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by the Company, the Guarantors and the relevant trustee, if such Debt Securities and related Debt Guarantees are issued pursuant to the Senior Subordinated Base Indenture,

 

  b. the terms and conditions of such Debt Securities and Debt Securities Guarantees have been duly established by supplemental indenture or officers’ certificate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the relevant Base Indenture,

 

  c. any such supplemental indenture has been duly executed and delivered by the Company, the Guarantors and the relevant trustee (together with the relevant Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), and


Standard Pacific Corp.

July 31, 2012

Page 4

 

  d. such Debt Securities have been executed (in the case of certificated Debt Securities), delivered and authenticated in accordance with the terms of the applicable Indenture and issued and sold for the consideration set forth in the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement,

such Debt Securities will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms, and the Guarantees of such Debt Securities will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Guarantors obligated thereon, enforceable against such Guarantors in accordance with their respective terms.

2. With respect to shares of Common Stock and the Rights, when:

 

  a. such shares of Common Stock have been duly executed (in the case of certificated shares) and delivered either (i) in accordance with the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement for the consideration provided for therein, or (ii) upon conversion of any Convertible Security, in accordance with the terms of such Convertible Security or the instrument governing such Convertible Security providing for such conversion, and for any additional consideration specified therein, which consideration (including any consideration paid for such Convertible Security), on a per-share basis, shall in either event not be less than the par value of the Common Stock,

 

  b. any such Convertible Security is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, and

 

  c. the Rights associated with such shares of Common Stock have been issued in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Rights Agreement,

such shares of Common Stock and the Rights will be validly issued, and such shares of Common Stock will be fully paid and non-assessable.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following exceptions, qualifications, limitations and assumptions:

A. We render no opinion herein as to matters involving the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York and to the extent relevant for our opinions herein, the Delaware General Corporation Law. This opinion is limited to the effect of the current state of the laws of the State of New York and the Delaware General Corporation Law and the facts as they currently exist. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion in the event of future changes in such laws or the interpretations thereof or such facts.


Standard Pacific Corp.

Page 5

B. The opinions above in paragraph 1 are subject to (i) the effect of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, arrangement or similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors’ generally, including the effect of statutory or other laws regarding fraudulent transfers or preferential transfers, and (ii) general principles of equity, including concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

C. We express no opinion regarding the effectiveness of (i) any waiver of stay, extension or usury laws or of unknown future rights, (ii) provisions relating to indemnification, exculpation or contribution, to the extent such provisions may be held unenforceable as contrary to public policy or federal or state securities laws, or (iii) any purported fraudulent transfer “savings” clause.

D. With respect to our opinion in paragraph 2 concerning the Rights, we express no opinion regarding the Rights Agreement or whether or not the board of directors of the Company in adopting the Rights Agreement and approving the issuance of the Rights acted in a manner consistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law and such opinion is based upon the assumption that such adoption and issuance was consistent with such duties. Furthermore, we advise you that the board of directors of the Company may be required to redeem or terminate, or take other action with respect to, the Rights at some future time based on the facts and circumstances existing at that time.

You have informed us that you intend to issue Securities from time to time on a delayed or continuous basis, and we understand that prior to issuing any Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement (i) you will advise us in writing of the terms thereof, and (ii) you will afford us an opportunity to (x) review the operative documents pursuant to which such Securities are to be issued or sold (including the applicable offering documents), and (y) file such supplement or amendment to this opinion (if any) as we may reasonably consider necessary or appropriate.

We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, and we further consent to the use of our name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Registration Statement and the prospectus that forms a part thereof. In giving these consents, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

Very truly yours,
