Reston, VA 20190

PROXY STATEMENT

This Proxy Statement, Proxy Card and the Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2005 are being mailed on or about March 22, 2006 in connection with the solicitation on behalf of the Board of Directors of NVR, Inc., a Virginia corporation (“NVR” or the “Company”), of proxies for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of NVR. The Annual Meeting will be held on Thursday, May 4, 2006, at NVR’s headquarters at 11700 Plaza America Dr., Suite 500, Reston, Virginia, 20190, at 11:30 A.M., Eastern Time, and at any and all postponements and adjournments thereof.

NVR bears the cost of proxy solicitation, including expenses in connection with preparing, assembling and mailing the proxy solicitation materials and all papers accompanying them. NVR may reimburse brokers or persons holding shares in their names or in the names of their nominees for their expenses in sending proxies and proxy material to beneficial owners. In addition to solicitation by mail, certain officers, directors and regular employees of NVR, who will receive no extra compensation for their services, may solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile transmission, internet or personally. NVR has retained Georgeson Shareholder Communications Inc. to assist in the solicitation of brokers, bank nominees and institutional holders for a fee of approximately $4,000 plus out-of-pocket expenses.

All voting rights are vested exclusively in the holders of NVR’s common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”). Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 1, 2006 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Shareholders include holders (the “Participants”) owning stock in NVR’s Profit Sharing Trust Plan and Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “Plans”).

The accompanying proxy card should be used to instruct the person named as the proxy to vote the shareholder’s shares in accordance with the shareholder’s directions. The persons named in the accompanying proxy card will vote shares of Common Stock represented by all valid proxies in accordance with the instructions contained thereon. In the absence of instructions, shares represented by properly executed proxies will be voted FOR the election of those three persons designated hereinafter as nominees for Class I directors of NVR, FOR the ratification of KPMG LLP as NVR’s Independent Auditor for 2006, and in the discretion of the named proxies with respect to any other matters presented at the Annual Meeting.

With respect to the tabulation of proxies, for the election of directors and the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as NVR’s independent auditor, abstentions and broker non-votes are counted for the purpose of establishing a quorum, but are not counted in the number of votes cast and will have no effect on the result of the vote.

Any shareholder may revoke his or her proxy at any time prior to its use by 1) filing with the Secretary of NVR, at 11700 Plaza America Drive, Suite 500, Reston, Virginia 20190, written notice of revocation, 2) duly executing a proxy bearing a later date than the date of the previously duly executed proxy, or 3) by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. Execution of the enclosed proxy will not affect your right to vote in person if you should later decide to attend the Annual Meeting.

The proxy card also should be used by Participants to instruct the trustee of the Plans how to vote shares of Common Stock held on their behalf. The trustee is required under the applicable trust agreement to establish procedures to ensure that the instructions received from Participants are held in confidence and not divulged, released or otherwise utilized in a manner that might influence the Participants’ free exercise of their voting rights. Proxy cards representing shares held by Participants must be returned to the tabulator by May 1, 2006 using the enclosed return envelope and should not be returned to NVR. If shares are owned through the Plans and the Participant does not submit voting instructions by May 1, 2006, the trustee of the Plans will vote such shares in the same proportion as the voting instructions received from the other Participants. Participants who wish to revoke a proxy card will need to contact the trustee and follow its instructions.

1

As of the Record Date, NVR had a total of 5,663,631 shares of Common Stock outstanding, each share of which is entitled to one vote. The presence, either in person or by proxy, of persons entitled to vote a majority of the outstanding Common Stock is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Under NVR’s Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, holders of Common Stock are not entitled to vote such shares on a cumulative basis.

Election of Directors

(Proposal 1)

NVR’s Board of Directors, or the “Board”, is divided into three classes, the classes being as equal in number as possible. At the 2006 Annual Meeting, the following persons constituting Class I of the directors have been nominated by the Board of Directors to be elected to hold office for a three year term and until their successors are duly elected and qualified:

C. Scott Bartlett, Jr.
Timothy M. Donahue
William A. Moran

NVR’s Restated Articles of Incorporation state that the number of directors of NVR will be no less than seven and no more than thirteen, as established from time to time by Board resolution. Currently, the Board has established the size of the Board as nine.

Mr. Bartlett and Mr. Moran are current directors standing for reelection. Mr. Donahue was appointed as a director on January 1, 2006 to fill a Board vacancy created by the death of J. Carter Bacot, and is standing for election by our shareholders for the first time. Mr. Schar, NVR’s Chairman, recommended Mr. Donahue to the Nominating Committee for consideration as a director. Each nominee has consented to serve as a director of NVR if elected. The Board of Directors has affirmatively determined that none of the Board of Directors’ proposed nominees have a material relationship with NVR that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment, with the exception of Mr. Moran, who is the chairman of Elm Street Development, Inc, an entity from which NVR periodically purchases finished lots upon which to build homes (see the section captioned “Certain Transactions”). The Board does not contemplate that any of its proposed nominees listed above will become unavailable for any reason, but if any such unavailability should occur before the Annual Meeting, proxies may be voted for another nominee selected by the Board of Directors.

Assuming the presence of a quorum, the affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting is required for the election of each of the three nominees named above. Unless marked otherwise, proxies received will be voted for the election of each of the three nominees named above. Shareholders may withhold their votes from the entire slate of nominees or from any particular nominee by so indicating in the space provided on the attached proxy card.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS VOTING “FOR” ALL THE
FOREGOING NOMINEES AS DIRECTORS OF NVR.

Corporate Governance Principles and Board Matters

NVR is committed to having sound corporate governance principles and practices. Having and acting on that commitment is essential to running NVR’s business efficiently and to maintaining NVR’s integrity in the marketplace. NVR’s primary corporate governance documents, including its Corporate Governance Guidelines, Code of Ethics and all of the Board of Directors’ committee charters, are available to the public on NVR’s internet website at http://www.nvrinc.com.

Board Independence

The Board has affirmatively determined that all current directors of NVR, except Dwight C. Schar, NVR’s Chairman, and William A. Moran, an existing director whose term expires in the current year, have no material relationship with NVR, directly or indirectly, that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment, and

2

are “independent” within the meaning of the American Stock Exchange’s (“AMEX”) director independence standards.

Board Structure and Committee Composition

NVR’s Restated Articles of Incorporation state that the number of directors of NVR will be no less than seven and no more than thirteen. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board has nine members.

Dwight C. Schar, NVR’s executive chairman, leads the Board, which meets at least quarterly. In addition, NVR’s Corporate Governance Guidelines requires that each year the Board name an independent lead director to chair meetings of NVR’s independent directors. The independent directors of the Board meet as a group at least annually. The independent lead director position rotates annually between the Audit, Compensation, Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee chairmen. During 2005, John M. Toups, the Chairman of the Compensation Committee, served as the independent lead director. Robert C. Butler, the Chairman of the Corporate Governance Committee, assumed the independent lead director role for the 2006 calendar year.

The Board has the following six committees: Audit, Compensation, Corporate Governance, Executive, Nominating, and Qualified Legal Compliance. Each committee, other than the Executive Committee, meets at least annually to review its Committee Charter. During 2005, the full Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee each met seven times, the Audit Committee met five times, the Nominating Committee met four times, the Corporate Governance Committee met twice, and the Qualified Legal Compliance Committee met once. The independent directors met once during 2005 in executive session without the presence of non-independent directors and management. The Executive Committee did not meet during 2005. All of the Board members attended all of the Board and their respective Committee meetings during 2005, and each then-standing director attended the last annual meeting of shareholders. The Board of Directors requires that all current Board members and all nominees for election to NVR’s Board of Directors put forth in NVR’s proxy statement by the Board attend the annual meeting of shareholders, unless personal circumstances affecting such Board member or director nominee make such attendance impracticable or inappropriate.

Board and Committee Compensation

The Audit Committee Chairman is paid an annual retainer equal to $36,000 per annum for serving as a director. All other non-employee Board members are paid a $26,000 annual retainer. Non-employee Board members are paid fees of $1,600 for each meeting attended during 2005. Incidental travel and out-of-pocket business expenses are reimbursed as incurred. Directors who are also officers of NVR receive no additional compensation for their services as directors.

On July 28, 2005, each non-employee director, except Timothy M. Donahue who was not a director as of that date, was issued stock options under the 1998 Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “plan”) to purchase 1,100 shares of NVR common stock at an exercise price of $907.75 per share. On January 1, 2006, Timothy M. Donahue was issued stock options under the Plan to purchase 1,355 shares of NVR common stock at an exercise price of $702.00 per share. The exercise price of the grants to the directors was equal to the market value of the underlying stock on the date of the respective grants. The total fair value per grant as measured by the Black-Scholes option-pricing model was equal to approximately $500,000. The options vest in twenty-five percent increments in each of 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, and expire in July 2015, except Mr. Donahue’s options which expire in December 2015. None of the Options granted under the Stock Option Plan will become exercisable (other than in the case of a change in control) unless NVR satisfies a performance target based on growth in diluted earnings per share (the “EPS Target”). The EPS Target has been set at a level that reflects a growth rate in diluted earnings per share of ten percent (10%) per year for four years, based on our 2004 diluted earnings per share of $66.42. The aggregate EPS Target is $339.00 per share, measured in 2009 based on the sum of the actual diluted earnings per share results for the four annual periods ending December 31, 2005 through 2008. The diluted earnings per share for the EPS Target will be calculated based on generally accepted accounting principles in effect at the end of each of the respective four years. The EPS Target will not be adjusted for accounting rule changes that subsequently become effective.

The Compensation Committee also has the sole authority and appropriate funding to obtain advice and assistance from compensation consultants, and internal or outside legal, accounting or other advisors it determines necessary to carry out its duties.

Nominating Committee

NVR has a separately-designated standing Nominating Committee comprised of four members, each of whom satisfies the independence standards specified in Section 121A of the AMEX listing standards.

Among other things, the Nominating Committee (1) identifies individuals qualified to become Board members; (2) recommends that the Board select the director nominees for the next annual meeting of shareholders; (3) recommends to the Board names of individuals to fill any vacancies on the Board that arise between annual meetings of shareholders; (4) considers from time to time the Board committee structure and makeup; and (5) annually reviews the Nominating Committee Charter and the Nominating Committee’s performance.

6

Qualified Legal Compliance Committee

The Qualified Legal Compliance Committee (“QLCC”) is a separately-designated standing committee, currently consisting of all of the members of NVR’s Audit Committee, that was established to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities relating to oversight of legal compliance by NVR and Company personnel and to meet the requirements for a qualified legal compliance committee under Part 205 of the rules of the SEC (the “Part 205 Rules”). The composition of the QLCC is intended to comply with all independence requirements under the Part 205 Rules. The QLCC operates pursuant to a charter adopted by the Board that is available at http://www.nvrinc.com. The QLCC annually reviews the QLCC Charter and the QLCC’s performance.

The QLCC has adopted written procedures for the confidential receipt, retention and consideration of any report of evidence of a material violation of securities laws or material breach of fiduciary duty or similar material violation by NVR, its directors, officers, employees or agents (“Material Violation”) under the Part 205 Rules, and has the authority and responsibility (1) to inform NVR’s chief legal officer (“CLO”), CEO and chief financial officer (“CFO”) of any report of evidence of a Material Violation; (2) to determine whether an investigation is necessary regarding any report of evidence of a Material Violation and; (3) if the QLCC determines an investigation is necessary or appropriate, initiate such investigation; (4) to obtain a written report from the CLO or outside counsel conducting any such investigation at the investigation’s conclusion; (5) recommend, by majority vote, that NVR implement an appropriate response to evidence of a Material Violation and inform the Board, CEO, CLO and CFO of the results of any such investigation and the appropriate remedial measures to be adopted; and (6) acting by majority vote, to take all other appropriate action, including the authority to notify the SEC in the event that NVR fails in any material respect to implement an appropriate response that the QLCC has recommended NVR to take.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act requires NVR’s directors and executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of NVR’s Common Stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of such stock with the SEC and the AMEX. Directors, executive officers and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish NVR with copies of all such forms filed. To NVR’s knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to NVR during 2005 and written representations that no other reports were required, all directors, executive officers and greater than 10% shareholders complied with all applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements.

Report of the Audit Committee

NVR’s Audit Committee is solely comprised of independent directors, as defined in the applicable AMEX and SEC rules, and operates pursuant to a charter adopted by the Board. As described more fully in the Charter (attached as Appendix A to the Proxy Statement), the Audit Committee has been established to assist the Board’s oversight of (1) the integrity of NVR’s accounting and financial reporting processes, including the internal controls over financial reporting, (2) NVR’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (3) the independent external auditor’s qualifications and independence, and (4) the performance of NVR’s internal audit function and independent external auditors. The Audit Committee has the sole legal authority to select, compensate, evaluate, and where applicable, to replace NVR’s independent auditor. The Audit Committee also has the authority and necessary funding available to obtain advice and assistance from outside legal, accounting or other advisors as the Audit Committee deems necessary to carry out its duties.

NVR’s management has primary responsibility for preparing NVR’s financial statements and establishing financial reporting systems and internal controls. NVR management also has the responsibility of reporting on the effectiveness of NVR’s internal controls over financial reporting. NVR’s independent external auditor, KPMG LLP, is responsible for expressing opinions on the conformity of NVR’s audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and on management’s report on the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. In this context, the Audit Committee hereby reports as follows:

1. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements and managements’ assessment of the effectiveness of NVR’s internal controls over financial reporting with NVR’s management, and reviewed and discussed KPMG LLP’s audit opinions with KPMG LLP;

9

2. The Audit Committee has discussed with KPMG LLP the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards (“SAS”) 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards, AU 380), SAS 99 (Consideration of Fraud in a Financial Statement Audit) and SEC rules discussed in Final Releases 33-8183 and 33-8183a;

3. The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from KPMG LLP required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (“Independence Discussions with Audit Committee”), and has discussed with KPMG LLP their independence; and

4. Based on the reviews and discussions referred to in paragraphs (1) through (3) above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board, and the Board has approved, that the audited financial statements be included in NVR’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, for filing with the SEC.

The undersigned, constituting all of the members of the Audit Committee, have submitted this report to the Board of Directors.

THE FOLLOWING COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE “SOLICITING MATERIAL” OR TO BE “FILED” WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 OR INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE IN ANY DOCUMENT SO FILED.

Compensation Committee Report On Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) administers NVR’s executive compensation program. In this regard, the role of the Committee is to oversee our compensation plans and policies, annually review and approve all executive officer compensation decisions, and administer NVR’s stock option plans (including approving stock option grants to executive officers). The Committee’s Charter reflects these various duties and responsibilities, among others. The Committee is composed solely of independent directors.

General Compensation Philosophy

General

The Committee’s philosophy regarding executive compensation is to provide a total compensation program for executive officers that is competitive with the compensation packages of other companies in the homebuilding and mortgage banking businesses, and which includes pay-for-performance based compensation that effectively aligns the interests of management with those of NVR’s shareholders. NVR’s executive officer compensation package consists of base salary, annual incentive compensation and long-term incentives consisting of non-qualified, fixed-price stock options issued at fair value on the date of grant. The total compensation package is structured to effectively achieve the mutually beneficial goals of retaining experienced senior executives and aligning senior executive compensation with the creation of long-term shareholder value.

Base Salary

The Committee sets the executive officers’ base salaries after considering comparable industry salaries for similar positions, and reviewing individual performance of the executive officers’ duties in their respective areas of responsibilities.

Annual Incentive

The annual incentive portion of the total compensation package is designed to focus the executive officers on the attainment of annual goals necessary to achieve NVR’s rolling five-year business plan. NVR’s entire management group participates in the annual incentive plan. Payouts under this cash-based, pay-for-performance plan

10

are predicated upon the achievement of actual financial targets that meet or exceed the annual business plan approved by the Board.

Long-Term Incentives — Fixed Price Stock Options

The potential single largest component of this total compensation package is realized through the grant of fixed-price stock options, in which most of NVR’s management group participates. The Committee believes that the use of stock options is the best “performance-based” equity vehicle for NVR with its continued focus on growth in earnings per share, accomplished through both net income growth and the efficient use of capital. It is the Committee’s intent that the executive officers only be rewarded when NVR’s shareholders realize long-term growth in the price appreciation of NVR stock. Unless NVR’s financial performance over the long-term period drives an increase in NVR’s stock price, the options granted provide little or no value to the employee, and if the price of the stock falls below the price at the grant date, the stock option provides no value. Conversely, the Committee does not believe that restricted stock plans meet its compensation philosophy because restricted stock plans provide value to an employee regardless of a company’s performance, having value to an employee even if the stock price drops from the date of grant (unless the stock price falls to $0).

The Committee structures stock option plans to vest over a long-term period. None of NVR’s four most recently approved equity plans had options scheduled to vest within the first four and one-half year period from the grant date. The average length of time for full vesting under these plans is over seven and one half years from the date of grant.

Following is a summary of the material terms of the four most recently approved stock option plans:

Term Description	1996 Plan	1998 Plan	2000 Plan	2005 Plan
Exercise price	Market value on	Market value on	Market value on	Market value on

	2001 and 2002	2003, 2004 and	2006, 2007, 2008	2010, 2011, 2012,
		2005	and 2009	and 2013
Period from grant	Six years and	Six years and seven	Eight years and	Eight years and
date to full vesting	seven months	months	eight months	seven months

The above chart illustrates the evolutionary nature of the Committee’s equity compensation philosophy. All plans implemented after the 1996 Plan require shareholder approval to reprice options. This feature was added after NVR independently recognized the importance of shareholder-controlled repricing, and years before the AMEX’s amended listing rules took effect in 2003 mandating shareholder approval to reprice options (no options granted under the 1996 Plan have ever been repriced). For the 2000 and 2005 Plans, the period from grant date to full vesting was increased by more than two years to almost nine years from the original grant date. For the 2005 Plan, all options granted are also subject to significant vesting conditions (both performance and time-related). No option granted under the 2005 Plan will become exercisable unless a performance target based on growth in diluted

11

earnings per share (the “EPS Target”) is met. The EPS Target has been set at a level that reflects a growth rate in diluted earnings per share of ten percent (10%) per year for four years, based on our 2004 diluted earnings per share of $66.42. The aggregate EPS Target is $339.00 per share, measured in 2009 based on the sum of the actual diluted earnings per share results for the four annual periods ending December 31, 2005 through 2008. The second vesting condition for the 2005 Plan is that the options will not commence vesting until 2010, with the first twenty-five percent (25%) installment vesting on December 31, 2010 and the subsequent installments vesting on December 31, 2011, 2012, and 2013. NVR has consistently sought improvements in its equity compensation plans to ensure that the majority of the executive officer’s potential compensation was effectively aligned with NVR’s shareholders.

The Committee recognizes that stock market gains can occur from general market increases. However, the Committee believes that NVR’s attainment of its long-term goals (i.e., consistent net income growth and efficiently employing capital to maintain consistently high rates of return on capital and equity) has been the principal driver of NVR’s overall stock price performance as indicated in the section captioned “Stock Performance Graph.”

NVR’s fixed-price option programs also aid in achieving one of our key strategic goals of maintaining a loyal and experienced management team through low turnover. Each option agreement signed by an employee contains a non-competition agreement, which NVR has actively enforced when necessary. The tenure and experience of our management team has been a key factor in the consistent net income growth and high rates of return on capital and equity that NVR has achieved.

Stock Holding Requirements

To complete the linkage between the interests of key NVR employees and the shareholders, the Board has established and adopted guidelines that require the members of the Board of Directors, the Chairman, the CEO, and other executive officers and certain members of senior management (“Management”) to acquire and continuously hold a specified minimum level of Common Stock (the “Guidelines”). Under the Guidelines, (i) Board members must acquire and hold Common Stock with a total fair market value equal to five times the annual board retainer fee, and (ii) Management must acquire and hold Common Stock with a total fair market value ranging from one to eight times their annual base salaries, with the Chairman and the CEO each required to acquire and hold Common Stock with a fair market value equal to at least eight times their annual base salary. The Board believes that the imposition of a long-term holding requirement for the Board of Directors and Management provides for additional incentive to enhance shareholder value by linking the interests of those parties directly to those of the shareholders. Board members must satisfy the holding requirement within three years of first becoming subject to the Guidelines, and at a minimum, have satisfied one-third of the requirement after one year, and two-thirds of the requirement after two years. Any member of Senior Management that does not meet the requirement must retain fifty percent of the net Common Stock received from option exercises until the respective holding requirement is attained. Net Common Stock received is defined as the common stock received after the payment of the option price and the taxes withheld related to the option exercise. All Board members and employees subject to the Guidelines currently are in compliance with the Guidelines.

Deductibility of Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the corporate deduction for compensation paid to the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table to $1 million unless such compensation qualifies as “performance-based compensation” which, among other things, requires approval by NVR’s stockholders. The Committee strives whenever possible to structure compensation plans such that they are tax deductible by NVR. However, to maintain flexibility in compensating executive officers in a manner designed to promote varying corporate goals, the Committee has not adopted a policy that all compensation must be deductible.

To minimize the non-deductibility of executive compensation expense due to the limitations of Section 162(m) and still maintain the ability to competitively compensate NVR’s executive officers, NVR established a deferred compensation plan (“Deferred Comp Plan”). The specific purpose of the Deferred Comp Plan is two-fold: i) it establishes a vehicle whereby executive officers may defer the receipt of compensation that otherwise would be nondeductible for tax purposes into a period where NVR would realize a tax deduction for the amounts paid and ii) it allows members of management subject to the NVR stock holding requirement to acquire shares of NVR stock on a

12

pre-tax basis to more quickly meet the required level of holdings. Unless otherwise mandated by a specific compensation plan, the deferral of any earned compensation was solely at the election of the executive officer. Amounts deferred into the Deferred Comp Plan are invested in a fixed number of shares of NVR common stock, which are purchased on the open market at fair market value. The shares of NVR common stock are distributed to the executive officer upon expiration of the deferral period.

Base Salary

The Committee reviews the base salary levels for the executive officers annually. Executive officer salaries are generally established around or higher than the average market rate of other companies of comparable size, particularly major homebuilding and residential mortgage companies, some of which are companies included in the Dow/Home Construction Index. In addition, consideration is given to individual experience as well as individual performance and the performance of those operations for which the executive is responsible. All of the named executive officers’ 2006 base salaries were increased over their 2005 base salaries, with the exception of Mr. Schar, who requested and received a $500,000 reduction to his base salary to reflect his relinquishment of the CEO role to Mr. Saville.

Personal Benefits

NVR’s executive officers are entitled to and eligible only for the same fringe benefits for which all NVR employees are eligible. NVR does not have programs in place to provide personal perquisites for any employee. NVR’s healthcare and other insurance programs are the same for all eligible employees, including executive officers. The Board’s annual discretionary contribution to the NVR ESOP plan, expressed as a percentage of eligible wages, and the NVR 401(k) matching contribution, are also the same for all eligible employees, subject to all applicable IRS contribution limits and formulas for plans of these types. Further, NVR does not offer a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan to any of its employees.

Mr. Schar, Mr. Saville, Mr. Inman and Mr. Seremet have employment agreements that provide for the payment of severance benefits in limited circumstances of up to one or two times their then annual salaries. None of the employment agreements provide for post-termination consulting arrangements. These employment agreements are more fully described in the section captioned “Employment Arrangements.”

Annual Incentive Compensation

All of the executive officers participate in NVR’s annual incentive compensation plan. The executive officers have a maximum potential payout, which is limited to 100% of their base salary. The capped feature of the potential payout generally results in the annual incentive opportunity being less than the average available for executive officers at other major homebuilders.

The annual incentive award is based on actual financial results compared to the business plan approved by the Board of Directors. At the beginning of each year, financial targets that are tied to NVR’s annual business plan are established by the Committee. These annual objectives are consistent with the current year’s portion of NVR’s five-year business plan. An executive officer begins to earn the annual incentive award once the financial targets are at least 70% attained. The full amount of the annual incentive award is earned ratably from 70% up to 100% of the financial target attainment. The executive officers can earn no more than 100% of their base salary as an incentive award, which is earned once 100% of the financial targets are attained. Thus, attainment of greater than 100% of the financial target has no impact on the amount of the incentive award earned.

With respect to the annual incentive plan, the financial targets used for the mortgage banking operation are pre-tax profit (before annual incentive expense and certain corporate cost allocations) and return on invested capital. The financial targets used for the homebuilding operation are profit before tax and annual incentive, but after a charge for the cost of capital, and return on assets. The financial target for corporate executives is predicated upon NVR, Inc. consolidated pre-tax profit (before consolidated annual incentive and stock-based compensation expense but after all other charges). For 2005, Mr. Schar, Mr. Saville, Mr. Seremet and Mr. Henley exceeded their financial objectives and received the maximum incentive award (100% of base salary). Mr. Inman earned approximately 84% of his maximum incentive award.

13

Long-Term Compensation

NVR’s long-term incentive program currently consists of fixed-price stock options and is designed to incent the executive officers on NVR’s long-term goals and link the interests of executive officers to those of the shareholders. Awards under the long-term incentive programs also strongly encourage the retention of key executive personnel. Retention of a loyal and experienced management team has been and continues to be a key component of NVR’s business strategy. In support of these objectives, NVR’s executive officers have historically participated in long-term, stock-based and cash-based incentive programs and non-qualified stock option plans.

During 2005, the executive officers were granted stock options under the 2005 Stock Option Plan adopted by NVR’s Board of Directors and approved by our shareholders. As noted above, the stock options granted under the 2005 Plan are subject to the attainment of a four-year EPS Target or they terminate immediately. If the EPS Target is attained, the options vest in twenty-five percent increments in each of 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, contingent on continued employment.

In 2003, the Committee discontinued the High Performance Plan (“HP Plan”), a long-term cash incentive plan with discrete three-year measurement periods, because the Committee determined that the compensation benefits available through base salary, annual incentive and stock option plans were adequate to meet NVR’s compensation objectives relative to executive officers. NVR’s practice for the last two years of the HP Plan had been to require executive officers to defer any earned amounts into the Deferred Comp Plan until separation of service with NVR. NVR funded the amounts mandatorily deferred and the funded amounts were invested into a fixed number of shares of NVR common stock at then current market prices. The shares will be distributed to the executive officer upon separation of service. This practice effectively increased the stock holding requirements for executive officers, and places the earned compensation at risk for a period greater than the measurement period under which the compensation was earned. All shares held by the Deferred Comp Plan pursuant to the HP Plan mandatory deferral are now vested, and are included in the preceding beneficial ownership table.

Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer Compensation

Mr. Dwight C. Schar has served as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of NVR from its inception through June 30, 2005. Effective July 1, 2005, the roles of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer were separated. From that time forth, Mr. Schar continued to serve as Chairman of the Board and Paul C. Saville, formerly NVR’s Chief Financial Officer, was named President and Chief Executive Officer. The compensation program for the Chairman and the CEO follows the overall general compensation philosophy discussed above, and is linked to the long-term strategic and financial goals of NVR while encouraging the creation of shareholder value. A significant amount of both the Chairman’s and the CEO’s compensation is tied to NVR’s performance and is at risk, in the form of annual incentive compensation, deferred long-term cash incentive compensation (which is invested in shares of NVR common Stock) and stock options. Through 2005, Mr. Schar’s and Mr. Saville’s long-term incentive compensation opportunities were mainly dependent upon NVR attaining consistent annual growth in earnings per share. The Committee believes that earnings per share-structured compensation incent the Chairman and the CEO to grow NVR’s operations while maintaining an efficient capital structure. The Committee believes the compensation program for both of these executives is consistent with NVR’s philosophy for compensating executive officers and encourages long-term shareholder value.

Mr. Schar’s salary remained the same after July 1, 2005, as he transitioned certain responsibilities to Mr. Saville. At Mr. Schar’s request to reflect the change in his duties, the Committee reduced his annual base salary by $500,000 effective January 1, 2006, with a corresponding reduction in Mr. Schar’s 2006 bonus opportunity. In establishing Mr. Saville’s base salary as CEO, the Committee considered his past performance, future responsibilities upon completion of the transition period, and industry comparatives.

Mr. Schar and Mr. Saville’s 2005 annual incentive compensation award was based on predetermined pre-tax profit objectives tied to NVR’s business plan, and was approved by the Board of Directors. As previously noted, for 2005, the pre-tax profit objectives for NVR were exceeded and both the Chairman and the CEO received the maximum award of 100% of their respective base salaries.

(1)	Incentive compensation is reflected in the year earned. All incentive compensation earned for the periods presented was paid in March of the subsequent calendar year, with the exception of Messrs. Schar and Saville who elected to defer receipt of their respective 2005 payments pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan.
(2)	If the EPS Target is met, 25% of the options issued from the 2005 Stock Option Plan vest on each of December 31, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 with vesting contingent upon continued employment. The options expire immediately if the EPS Target is not attained (see the section above captioned Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation for a more detailed description of the 2005 Stock Option Plan and the EPS Target). See the following table captioned Option Grants in 2005 for further information.
(3)	Amount contributed to the Employee Stock Ownership Plan for the respective plan years.
(4)	Effective July 1, 2005, NVR affected changes to its executive officer roles. Mr. Schar remained the Company’s Chairman, but ceded the Chief Executive Officer role to Mr. Saville, formerly NVR’s Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Seremet, formerly NVR’s Controller, was named the Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Henley, who was not previously an executive officer, was named the Controller to succeed Mr. Seremet. Because Mr. Henley was not an executive officer prior to July 1, 2005, only 2005 compensation is reported.

(1)	The exercise price of the grants was equal to the market value of the underlying stock on the date of the respective grants. The options vest in twenty-five percent increments in each of 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 if the EPS Target is achieved and contingent on continued employment. None of the options granted under the Stock Option Plan will become exercisable (other than in the case of a change in control) unless NVR satisfies a performance target based on growth in diluted earnings per share (the “EPS Target”). The EPS Target is set at a level that reflects a growth rate in diluted earnings per share of ten percent (10%) per year for four years, based on our 2004 diluted earnings per share of $66.42. The aggregate EPS Target is $339.00 per share, measured in 2009 based on the sum of the actual diluted earnings per share results for the four annual periods ending December 31, 2005 through 2008. The diluted earnings per share for the EPS Target will be calculated based on generally accepted accounting principles in effect at the end of each of the respective four years. The EPS Target will not be adjusted for accounting rule changes that subsequently become effective.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2005, the compensation committee was comprised of Mr. Toups, Mr. Slye, Mr. Johnson, and Mr. Preiser, all of who are independent directors of NVR. No executive officer of NVR served as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a

16

member of NVR’s Board or the NVR Board’s Compensation Committee; accordingly, there were no interlocks with other companies within the meaning of the SEC’s proxy rules during 2005.

Certain Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2005, NVR entered into forward lot purchase agreements to purchase finished building lots for a total purchase price of approximately $41,000,000 with Elm Street Development, Inc., which is controlled by Mr. Moran. These transactions were approved by a majority of the independent members of the Board of Directors, and the finished lots under these transactions are expected to be purchased over the next three years at market prices. During 2005, NVR purchased 182 developed lots at market prices from Elm Street for approximately $29,000,000.

NVR periodically leases, at market rates, an airplane owned by Mr. Schar for business-related company travel when the use of the airplane lends itself to business travel efficiencies. NVR’s independent directors annually review these expenditures. During 2005, NVR paid approximately $323,000 for business-related use of the airplane.

During 2005, NVR entered into various marketing and promotional arrangements with certain entities controlled by or affiliated with the Washington Redskins National Football League franchise (the “Redskins”). Mr. Schar is a minority owner of the Redskins. NVR’s independent directors approved each of these arrangements. In total, NVR incurred or committed to incur approximately $960,000 under these marketing and promotional arrangements.

Employment Arrangements

On July 1, 2005, NVR entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Schar to serve as Chairman of the Board. The agreement continues through January 1, 2011 (unless extended by both parties), and provides for an annual minimum base salary of $2,000,000 and an annual bonus of up to 100% of base salary. Mr. Schar voluntarily sought a 25% reduction in his base salary, which effective January 1, 2006, was reduced to $1,500,000. If Mr. Schar’s employment terminates due to death or disability (in each case as defined in his employment agreement), he would be entitled to receive his then annual base salary and accrued annual bonus for the period ending on the last calendar day of the second calendar month following the month in which the death or disability occurred.

18

applicable, of a new Chairman and/or Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to Mr. Inman’s employment agreement, he must acquire and hold at all times NVR common stock with a total fair market value equal to four times his annual base salary.

In each of the above described employment agreements, termination for “cause” may result if the executive officer subject to the respective employment agreement is convicted of any felony, other crime involving moral turpitude, or any crime or offense which results in his incarceration for more than three months, is guilty of gross misconduct in connection with the performance of his duties as described within the respective employment agreement, or if the executive officer materially breaches affirmative or negative covenants or undertakings set forth in his respective employment agreement.

Each of the executive officers has been granted stock options pursuant to individual option agreements entered into between the respective executive officer and NVR. The agreements provide for the acceleration of vesting of the granted stock options upon a “change in control” of NVR as defined within each of the respective agreements. The “change of control” provisions within the executive officers’ agreements are identical to the “change of control” provisions within the agreements for all other participants of the respective stock option plans. Generally, the “change of control” provision is triggered upon (i) a merger, consolidation, reorganization or other business combination of NVR with one or more other entities in which NVR is not the surviving entity, (ii) a sale of substantially all of the assets of NVR to another entity, and (iii) any transaction resulting in any person or entity owning 20% or more of the total number of voting shares of NVR, or any person commencing a tender or exchange offer to acquire beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the total number of voting shares of NVR.
