PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT TO PROSPECTUS DATED JULY 14, 2017

$100,000,000

7.625% Senior Notes due 2023

The notes offered hereby will bear interest at the rate of 7.625% per year. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on May 15, 2019. The notes will mature on May 15, 2023. The notes may be redeemed, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at our option, at the redemption prices described in this prospectus supplement.

The notes will be unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of our operating subsidiaries on a senior unsecured basis. The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of KB Home and will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. If we undergo a change of control, under certain circumstances, we may be required to make an offer to repurchase all outstanding notes at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the repurchase date.

On February 17, 2015, we issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 7.625% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “existing 2023 notes”). The notes offered hereby constitute a further issuance of the existing 2023 notes. Accordingly, the notes offered hereby will have the same terms as (other than the date of issuance and the date from which interest thereon begins to accrue), form a single series of senior debt securities with, and have the same CUSIP number and be fungible with, the existing 2023 notes. Unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, references herein to the “notes” include the notes offered hereby and the existing 2023 notes.

Concurrently with this offering, under a separate prospectus supplement, we are offering $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 notes”) in an underwritten public offering. The closing of this offering of notes is not conditioned on the closing of the concurrent offering of the 2027 notes, and the closing of the concurrent offering of the 2027 notes is not conditioned on the closing of this offering of notes. In addition, we may sell more or fewer 2027 notes depending on market conditions.

Investing in the notes involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-9 of this prospectus supplement.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus is truthful or complete.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the notes offered hereby involves certain risks. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before investing in the notes, as well as the risks and uncertainties described elsewhere in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated and deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The following important factors could adversely impact our homebuilding and financial services operations, and our consolidated financial statements. These factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking and other statements that we make in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, and the documents incorporated and deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. However, these are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face. The market or trading price of the notes could decline due to any of these risks or uncertainties, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You are also cautioned that some of the statements contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are “forward-looking statements” and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. See “Forward-Looking Statements” in this prospectus supplement.

Risk Factors Relating to KB Home

For a discussion of risks and uncertainties relating to KB Home and our business, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

Risk Factors Relating to the Notes

Your right to receive payments on the notes will be effectively subordinated to the rights of any existing or future secured creditors of our company. Further, the guarantees of these notes will be effectively subordinated to all of our guarantors’ existing or future secured indebtedness.

Your right to receive payments on the notes will be effectively subordinated to the rights of any existing or future secured creditors of ours, and the guarantees of the notes will be effectively subordinated to all of our guarantors’ existing or future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. In the event of any distribution or payment of our assets in any insolvency, foreclosure, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization or other bankruptcy proceeding, holders of secured indebtedness will have a priority claim to those of our or our guarantors’ assets that constitute their collateral. Holders of the notes will participate ratably in our remaining assets with all holders of our unsecured indebtedness that is deemed to be of the same class as the notes, and potentially with all of our other general creditors, based upon the respective amounts owed to each holder or creditor. In any of the foregoing events, we cannot assure you that there will be sufficient assets to pay amounts due on the notes. As a result, holders of the notes may receive less, ratably, than holders of secured indebtedness.

S-9

Our ability to service our debt, including the notes, depends upon cash provided to us by our subsidiaries; the notes are structurally subordinated to the liabilities of our subsidiaries that are not guarantors of the notes, and the notes and guarantees are effectively subordinated to secured indebtedness of us and the guarantors.

The notes will initially be guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries. A portion of our revenue and income is generated by, and a portion of our assets is held by, the non-guarantor subsidiaries. The non-guarantor subsidiaries generated approximately 8% of our consolidated revenues during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018, and the non-guarantor subsidiaries held approximately 9% of our consolidated assets at November 30, 2018. For further information, you should review note 22 to our consolidated financial statements appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and includes condensed consolidating financial statements that separately present information regarding the results of operations and financial condition of the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries.

We are a holding company, and we conduct our operations through subsidiaries. We derive substantially all our revenues from our subsidiaries, and all of our operating assets are owned by our subsidiaries. As a result, our cash flow and our ability to service our debt, including the notes, depends on the results of operations of our subsidiaries and upon the ability of our subsidiaries to provide us with cash to pay amounts due on our obligations, including our existing senior notes and the notes offered hereby and, assuming the closing of the concurrent notes offering, the 2027 notes. Our subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and the non-guarantor subsidiaries have no obligation to make payments on the notes offered hereby or to make any funds available for that purpose. In addition, dividends, loans, or other distributions from our subsidiaries to us may be subject to contractual and other restrictions, are dependent upon the results of operations of our subsidiaries and are subject to other business considerations.

Because of our holding company structure, the notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of the non-guarantor subsidiaries. These liabilities may include, among others, indebtedness, trade payables, guarantees, lease obligations and letter of credit obligations. Therefore, our rights and the rights of our creditors, including the holders of the notes, to participate in the assets of any non-guarantor subsidiary upon that subsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization will be subject to the prior claims of that subsidiary’s creditors and of the holders of any indebtedness or other obligations guaranteed by that subsidiary, except to the extent that we may ourselves be a creditor with recognized claims against that subsidiary. However, even if we are allowed claims as a creditor of a non-guarantor subsidiary, our claims would still be effectively subordinated to any security interests in, or mortgages or other liens on, the assets of that subsidiary and would be subordinate to any indebtedness of that subsidiary senior to claims held by us. As of November 30, 2018, the non-guarantor subsidiaries had approximately $215.3 million of liabilities outstanding, excluding intercompany liabilities, to which the notes would be structurally subordinated.

The notes will also be effectively subordinated to our existing and future secured indebtedness and the guarantees will be effectively subordinated to the existing and future secured indebtedness of the guarantors of the notes. The aggregate principal amount of such existing indebtedness was approximately $40.0 million at November 30, 2018 and was comprised principally of indebtedness secured by purchase money mortgages on real property.

Each guarantor of the notes offered hereby is also required to guarantee, on a senior unsecured basis, our existing senior notes and our obligations under our revolving credit

S-10

facility. Each guarantor’s guarantee of the notes offered hereby will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and guarantees of that guarantor, including its guarantees of our borrowings and other obligations under our existing senior notes and our revolving credit facility. Adjusted for the Convertible Senior Notes Repayment, as of November 30, 2018, we had $1.8 billion aggregate principal amount outstanding of existing senior notes, $60.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and $28.0 million of letters of credit outstanding under our revolving credit facility. Your right to payment under the guarantees of the notes offered hereby will be effectively subordinated to the secured indebtedness of the guarantors of the notes to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, as described above.

Although our revolving credit facility imposes certain limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness which may affect our liquidity, the indenture that will govern the notes offered hereby does not contain any limitation on the amount of unsecured liabilities, including indebtedness and guarantees, that we and our subsidiaries may incur in the future. See “—Despite current indebtedness levels, we may still be able to incur substantially more debt. This could further exacerbate the risks described above” and “—Failure to comply with the restrictions and covenants imposed by our revolving credit facility could restrict future borrowing or cause any outstanding indebtedness to become immediately due and payable.”

Federal and state laws allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void guarantees and to require you to return payments received from guarantors.

The notes will initially be guaranteed by the guarantors and, under certain circumstances, other subsidiaries of ours may or may be required to guarantee the notes. Any of these guarantees may be subject to review as fraudulent transfers under federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws in the event a bankruptcy or reorganization case is commenced by or on behalf of one of the guarantors or if a lawsuit is commenced against one of the guarantors by or on behalf of an unpaid creditor of such guarantor. Although the elements that must be found for a guarantee to be determined to be a fraudulent transfer vary depending upon the law of the jurisdiction that is being applied, as a general matter, if a court were to find that, at the time any guarantor issued its guarantee of the notes:

then the court could void the obligations under such guarantee, subordinate the guarantee to the guarantor’s other debt or take other action detrimental to you and the guarantees of the notes, including directing the return of any payments received from the guarantor.

S-11

The measures of insolvency for purposes of fraudulent transfer laws vary depending upon the law of the jurisdiction that is being applied in any proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer has occurred. Generally, however, a person would be considered insolvent if, at the time it incurred the debt or issued its guarantee:

We cannot be sure as to the standard that a court would use to determine whether or not the guarantors were solvent at a relevant time, or, regardless of the standard that the court uses, that the issuance of the guarantees would not be voided or the guarantees would not be subordinated to the guarantors’ other debt. Any guarantee could also be subject to the claim that, because the guarantee was incurred for our benefit, and only indirectly for the benefit of the applicable guarantor, the obligations of the applicable guarantor were incurred for less than fair consideration or reasonably equivalent value.

Corporate benefit laws and other limitations on guarantees may adversely affect the validity and enforceability of the guarantees of the notes.

The guarantees by the guarantors provide the holders of the notes with a direct claim against the assets of the guarantors. The guarantees, however, will be limited to the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by a particular guarantor without rendering the guarantee, as it relates to that guarantor, voidable or otherwise ineffective under applicable law. This limit may not be effective to protect such guarantees from being voided under fraudulent transfer laws. This limit may also eliminate any guarantor’s obligations or reduce such guarantor’s obligations to an amount that effectively makes the guarantee worthless.

In addition, enforcement of any of these guarantees against any guarantor will be subject to certain defenses available to guarantors generally. These laws and defenses include those that relate to fraudulent conveyance or transfer (as described in the preceding risk factor), voidable preference, corporate purpose or benefit, preservation of share capital, thin capitalization and regulations or defenses affecting the rights of creditors generally. If one or more of these laws and defenses are applicable, a guarantor may have no liability or reduced liability under its guarantee.

The guarantors may be released from their guarantees of the notes under certain circumstances.

Any or all of the guarantors of the notes may be released from their respective guarantees under certain circumstances specified in the indenture that will govern the notes. If this were to occur, holders of the notes would be structurally subordinated to the liabilities of such released guarantors, as described above, which could have a material adverse effect on the value of the notes. See “Description of the Notes—General” in this prospectus supplement and “Description of Debt Securities—Guarantees” in the accompanying prospectus.

All of our currently outstanding unsecured indebtedness is scheduled to mature prior to or concurrently with the notes offered hereby.

As of the date of this prospectus supplement, we have $1.8 billion aggregate principal amount of existing senior notes outstanding that will rank equally with the notes offered hereby. Based on the stated maturities of our existing senior notes as set forth in “Capitalization,” all of

S-12

these existing senior notes are scheduled to mature prior to the stated maturity of the notes offered hereby, except that our existing 2023 notes, which will form a single series of debt securities with the notes offered hereby, will mature at the same time as the notes offered hereby.

We may not be able to repurchase the notes upon a change of control triggering event.

If a change of control triggering event (as defined in “Description of the Notes” in this prospectus supplement) occurs, we generally will be required to make an offer to each holder of the notes to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s notes at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase. If we experience a change of control triggering event, we cannot assure you that we would have sufficient financial resources available to repurchase the notes in cash at such time. The terms governing our existing senior notes, including our existing 2023 notes, and, assuming the closing of the concurrent notes offering, the 2027 notes, provide for a similar offer to repurchase requirement with respect to the applicable series of securities. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, the aggregate principal amount of our 4.75% Senior Notes due 2019, 8.00% Senior Notes due 2020, 7.000% Senior Notes due 2021, 7.5% Senior Notes due 2022 and existing 2023 notes is $400.0 million, $350.0 million, $450.0 million, $350.0 million, and $250.0 million, respectively. Our failure to repurchase these securities to the extent required would result in a default under the applicable securities, which could, in turn, result in defaults under our revolving credit facility and our other debt agreements, and have material adverse consequences for us and the holders of the notes offered hereby.

The terms of the indenture and the notes provide only limited protection against significant corporate events that could affect adversely your investment in the notes.

While the indenture and the notes contain terms intended to provide protection to holders upon the occurrence of certain events involving significant corporate transactions or our creditworthiness, these terms are limited and may not be sufficient to protect your investment in the notes. As described under “Description of the Notes—Change of Control Offer” in this prospectus supplement, if a change of control triggering event occurs, we generally will be required to make an offer to each holder of the notes to repurchase their notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the repurchase date. However, the definition of the term “change of control triggering event” is limited and does not cover a variety of transactions (such as acquisitions by us or recapitalizations) that could negatively affect the value of your notes. If we were to enter into a significant corporate transaction that would negatively affect the value of the notes, but that would not constitute a change of control triggering event, you would not have any rights to require us to repurchase the notes prior to their maturity, which also would adversely affect your investment.

Additionally, Delaware courts have held that incumbent directors are permitted to approve as a continuing director of a board any person, including one nominated by a dissident stockholder and not recommended by the board, as long as the approval is granted in good faith and in accordance with the board’s fiduciary duties, and that incumbent directors would be breaching their fiduciary duties if such approval was withheld without a reasonable basis. Accordingly, a holder of notes may not be able to require us to repurchase notes as a result of the change in the composition of the directors on our board. Moreover, certain provisions in indentures, such as continuing director provisions, could function to entrench an incumbent board of directors and could raise enforcement concerns if adopted in violation of a board’s fiduciary duties. If such a provision were found unenforceable, holders would not be able to require us to repurchase notes as a result of a change of control resulting from a change in the composition of our board. See “Description of the Notes—Change of Control Offer” in this prospectus supplement.

S-13

Despite current indebtedness levels, we may still be able to incur substantially more debt. This could further exacerbate the risks described above.

We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness, including secured debt, in the future, subject to certain limitations as described in the risk factor below. The terms of the indenture governing the notes do not fully prohibit us or our subsidiaries from doing so. See “Description of Debt Securities—Certain Covenants” in the accompanying prospectus. If we incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, these higher levels of indebtedness may affect our ability to pay the principal of and interest on the notes, or to repurchase the notes following the occurrence of a change of control triggering event, and our creditworthiness generally. In addition, if we incur any additional indebtedness that ranks pari passu with the notes offered hereby, the holders of such debt will be entitled to share ratably with you in any proceeds distributed in connection with any insolvency, foreclosure, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization or other bankruptcy proceeding. This may have the effect of reducing the amount of proceeds paid to you. If new debt is added to our existing debt levels, the related risks that we and our subsidiaries now face could intensify.

Failure to comply with the restrictions and covenants imposed by our revolving credit facility could restrict future borrowing or cause any outstanding indebtedness to become immediately due and payable.

Under the terms of our revolving credit facility, we are required, among other things, to maintain compliance with various covenants, including financial covenants relating to tangible net worth, leverage, and liquidity or interest coverage. The revolving credit facility is also governed by a borrowing base requirement and includes a limitation on investments in joint ventures and non-guarantor subsidiaries. If we fail to comply with these restrictions or covenants, the participating financial institutions could terminate the revolving credit facility, cause borrowings under the revolving credit facility, if any, to become immediately due and payable and/or demand that we compensate them for waiving instances of noncompliance. In addition, under certain circumstances, a default under the revolving credit facility could cause a default with respect to our existing senior notes and the notes offered hereby and result in the acceleration of the maturity of our existing senior notes and the notes, and our inability to borrow under the revolving credit facility, which would have a material adverse impact on our liquidity and on our consolidated financial statements. Moreover, we may need to curtail our investment activities and other uses of cash to maintain compliance with the restrictions and covenants under the revolving credit facility. For further information regarding our revolving credit facility, you should review “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” and note 13 to our consolidated financial statements, in each case, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

The notes may not have an active market, so you may be unable to sell your notes at the price you desire or at all.

The notes are a further issuance of, and will form a single series of senior debt securities with, our existing 2023 notes. We cannot assure you that an active trading market for the notes exists, or, if such a trading market exists or develops, that it will be maintained. Nor can we assure you that you will be able to sell any of the notes at a particular time (if at all) or that the prices you receive if or when you sell the notes will be above their initial offering price. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the notes on any securities exchange or for inclusion of the notes on any automated dealer quotation system. The underwriters have advised us that

S-14

they intend to make a market in the notes, but they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue any market-making in the notes at any time in their sole discretion and without notice.

Moreover, even if you are able to sell your notes, you may not receive a favorable price for your notes. Any future trading prices of the notes could be subject to significant fluctuation and will depend on many factors, including, among other things, prevailing interest rates, our operating results and financial condition, our prospects or the prospects for companies in our industry generally, the market for similar securities, the supply of notes trading in the secondary market, actual or anticipated governmental or Federal Reserve actions or policies and general economic conditions. These factors are interrelated in complex and unpredictable ways. As a result, the effect of any one factor may be offset or magnified by the effect of another factor. In addition, there may be a limited number of buyers if you decide to sell your notes. This may affect the price you receive for your notes or your ability to sell your notes at all.

Changes in our credit ratings may adversely affect the value of the notes.

Any credit ratings applied to the notes are an assessment of our ability to pay our obligations, including obligations under the notes. Ratings are limited in scope, and do not address all material risks relating to an investment in the notes, but rather reflect only the view of each rating agency at the time the rating is issued. An explanation of the significance of a rating may be obtained from the relevant rating agency. Ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold securities, and there can be no assurance that ratings will remain in effect for any given period of time or that ratings will not be lowered, suspended or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies, if, in each rating agency’s judgment, circumstances so warrant. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. The assignment by any such rating agency of a rating on the notes lower than the rating expected by investors or actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our credit ratings, including on our existing senior notes or the notes, such as an announcement that our ratings are under further review for a downgrade, could adversely affect the market value or liquidity of your notes and increase our corporate borrowing costs.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate the net proceeds from the sale of the notes offered hereby will be approximately $103.9 million after deducting the underwriting discount and our estimated expenses relating to the offering. We estimate that the net proceeds from the concurrent notes offering will be approximately $296.0 million after deducting the underwriting discount and our estimated expenses relating to such offering. The closing of this offering of notes is not conditioned on the closing of the concurrent offering of 2027 notes, and the closing of the concurrent offering of 2027 notes is not conditioned on the closing of this offering of notes. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering and the concurrent notes offering, if consummated, towards the retirement of our 4.75% Senior Notes due 2019, of which $400.0 million aggregate principal amount was outstanding as of the date of this prospectus supplement, by redemption on the optional redemption terms specified for such notes, purchase or repayment at maturity on May 15, 2019. Our 4.75% Senior Notes due 2019 bear interest at a rate of 4.75% per annum. Any purchases of our 4.75% Senior Notes due 2019 may be made through open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. See “Underwriting” in this prospectus supplement for information about holding of our 4.75% Senior Notes due 2019 by certain of the underwriters and/or their affiliates.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

We will issue the notes offered hereby under a base indenture dated as of January 28, 2004, as amended and supplemented, between us, the Guarantors (as defined in the accompanying prospectus under “Description of Debt Securities—Certain Definitions”) party thereto from time to time and U.S. Bank National Association (successor in interest to SunTrust Bank), as trustee (the “Trustee”), which we refer to as the “Indenture.”

The notes offered hereby, together with the existing 2023 notes, are a series of “senior debt securities” and the Indenture is the “senior indenture” referred to in the accompanying prospectus under the heading “Description of Debt Securities.” Certain terms of the notes will be set forth in an officers’ certificate and guarantors’ officers’ certificate. This description of the notes supplements and, to the extent it is inconsistent, replaces only with respect to the notes the description of the general terms and provisions of the debt securities, the senior debt securities and the senior indenture that appears in the accompanying prospectus under the heading “Description of Debt Securities” to which description reference is made and which you should read. The following description of selected terms of the notes and the Indenture is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture, the officers’ certificate and guarantors’ officers’ certificate governing the terms of the notes and the form of certificate evidencing the notes, copies of which have been or will be filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which the accompanying prospectus is a part or to the documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. We urge you to read these documents in their entirety, as they, and not this description, define your rights as a holder of the notes. You may request a copy of these documents at our address shown under “Where You Can Find More Information” in this prospectus supplement.

Some of the terms, whether or not capitalized, used in this description are defined in the accompanying prospectus under “Description of Debt Securities.” Some of the terms, whether or not capitalized, used but not defined under this “Description of the Notes” or under “Description of Debt Securities” in the accompanying prospectus have the meanings given to them in the Indenture or the officers’ certificate and guarantors’ officers’ certificate governing the terms of the notes. In this “Description of the Notes,” when we refer to “KB Home,” “we,” “our” or “us,” we are referring to KB Home and not to any of its subsidiaries, except as otherwise expressly provided or the context otherwise requires.

General

The notes offered hereby will constitute a further issuance of, and will form a single series of senior debt securities under the Indenture with, the existing 2023 notes, currently limited to $350.0 million in aggregate principal amount (inclusive of the existing 2023 notes). The notes will be issued in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Under the Indenture, KB Home may, without the consent of the holders of the notes, from time to time in the future “reopen” the series and issue additional notes of the same series. The notes offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, the existing 2023 notes and any additional notes we may issue in the future upon such a reopening will constitute a single series of debt securities under the Indenture. This means that, in circumstances where the Indenture provides for the holders of debt securities of any series to vote or take any action, the notes offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, the existing 2023 notes and any additional notes that we may issue by reopening the series will vote or take that action as a single class.

S-19

The notes will mature on May 15, 2023. The notes offered hereby will bear interest from November 15, 2018 at the rate of 7.625% per annum, payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing May 15, 2019 to the persons in whose names such notes are registered, subject to certain exceptions as provided in the Indenture, at the close of business on May 1 or November 1 (each, a “Regular Record Date”), as the case may be, immediately preceding such May 15 or November 15. Interest on the notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

The notes will be unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of KB Home. See “Risk Factors—Risk Factors Relating to the Notes—Our ability to service our debt, including the notes, depends upon cash provided to us by our subsidiaries; the notes are structurally subordinated to the liabilities of our subsidiaries that are not guarantors of the notes, and the notes and guarantees are effectively subordinated to secured indebtedness of us and the guarantors” in this prospectus supplement and “Description of Debt Securities—Holding Company Structure” and “Description of Debt Securities—Ranking—Ranking of Senior Debt Securities and Guarantees” in the accompanying prospectus.

All of our payment and delivery obligations under the notes will be unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, initially by the following Guarantors:

Each guarantee will be the unsecured and unsubordinated obligation of the related Guarantor. See “Risk Factors—Risk Factors Relating to the Notes—Our ability to service our debt, including the notes, depends upon cash provided to us by our subsidiaries; the notes are structurally subordinated to the liabilities of our subsidiaries that are not guarantors of the notes, and the notes and guarantees are effectively subordinated to secured indebtedness of us and the guarantors” in this prospectus supplement and “Description of Debt Securities—Holding Company Structure” and “Description of Debt Securities—Ranking—Ranking of Senior Debt Securities and Guarantees” in the accompanying prospectus. Under certain circumstances specified in the Indenture, any or all of the Guarantors may be released from their guarantees of the notes, and other subsidiaries of KB Home may or may be required to guarantee the notes. See “Description of Debt Securities—Guarantees” in the accompanying prospectus. The guarantees may be subject to review as fraudulent transfers under applicable law. See “Risk Factors—Risk Factors Relating to the Notes—Federal and state laws allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void guarantees and to require you to return payments received from guarantors” in this prospectus supplement.

S-20

The notes will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. In addition, the Indenture does not contain any provisions to protect holders of the notes in the event of a highly leveraged transaction, other than with respect to certain change in control transactions. See “—Change of Control Offer” and “Risk Factors—Risk Factors Relating to the Notes—The terms of the indenture and the notes provide only limited protection against significant corporate events that could affect adversely your investment in the notes” in this prospectus supplement.

The notes will be entitled to the benefit of the covenants described in the accompanying prospectus under “Description of Debt Securities—Certain Covenants” and “Description of Debt Securities—Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets.” However, these covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and limitations, and you should carefully review the information with respect to these covenants and the related definitions appearing in the accompanying prospectus under those captions and “Description of Debt Securities—Certain Definitions.”

Initially, the notes will be issued only in book-entry form and represented by one or more global notes registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company, as Depository, or its nominee. Payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on notes in global form registered in the name of DTC’s nominee will be made in immediately available funds to such nominee as the registered holder of such global notes. This means that you will not be entitled to receive a certificate for the notes that you purchase except under the limited circumstances described in the accompanying prospectus under “Description of Debt Securities—Book-Entry; Delivery and Form.”

Optional Redemption

The notes will be redeemable, in whole at any time or from time to time in part, at KB Home’s option on any date of redemption (each, a “Redemption Date”). Prior to November 15, 2022 (the date that is six months prior to the maturity of the notes), the redemption price for the notes to be redeemed will be equal to the greater of:

(a) 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date, and

(b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the notes to be redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the applicable Redemption Date) discounted to such Redemption Date on a semiannual basis, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points,

plus, in the case of both clause (a) and (b) above, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the notes being redeemed to, but excluding, such Redemption Date.

On or after November 15, 2022 (the date that is six months prior to the maturity of the notes) and until their maturity, the redemption price for the notes to be redeemed will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the notes being redeemed to, but excluding, such Redemption Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on notes whose stated maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date will be payable to the holders of such notes (or one or more predecessor securities) registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the notes:

(a) the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal

S-21

Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Final Maturity Date for the notes, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding to the nearest month); or

(b) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

The Treasury Rate shall be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the applicable Redemption Date. As used in the immediately preceding sentence and in the definition of “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” below, the term “Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the notes, the United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment Bankers as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the notes to be redeemed.

“Independent Investment Bankers” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the notes, (a) Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and its successors, (b) Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its successors, (c) Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and its successors and (d) Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and its successors or, if any such firm or any successor to such firm, as the case may be, is unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, the remaining of (a)-(d) exclusively or, if none of such firms or any successor to such firms, as the case may be, is willing or able to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Trustee after consultation with KB Home.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the notes:

(a) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or

(b) if the Trustee obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of (a) Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and its successors, (b) Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and its successors, (c) Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and its successors and (d) Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and its successors (provided that for each of (a)-(d), however, if such firm or any such successor, as the case may be, shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Trustee, after consultation with KB Home, will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer), and (e) one other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Trustee after consultation with KB Home.

S-22

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date for the notes, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Final Maturity Date” means May 15, 2023.

Notice of any redemption by KB Home will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before any Redemption Date to each holder of notes to be redeemed. If less than all the notes are to be redeemed at the option of KB Home, the Trustee will select, in such manner as it deems fair and appropriate, the notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed. Unless KB Home defaults in payment of the redemption price (including, without limitation, interest, if any, accrued to, but excluding, the applicable Redemption Date), on and after any Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the notes or portions thereof called for redemption on such Redemption Date.

Change of Control Offer

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless we have exercised our option to redeem the notes by notifying the noteholders to that effect as described above, we will be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder of notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that holder’s notes on the terms set forth in such notes. In a Change of Control Offer, we will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the notes repurchased up to, but not including, the date of repurchase (a “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at our option, prior to any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, notice will be given to holders of the notes describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date that notice is given or, if the notice is given prior to the Change of Control, no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date on which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, other than in each case as may be required by law (a “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the applicable Change of Control Payment Date.

On each Change of Control Payment Date, we will, to the extent lawful:

We will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the

S-23

times and price and otherwise substantially in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by us and the third party promptly purchases all notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, we will not repurchase any notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an event of default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

To the extent that we are required to offer to repurchase the notes following the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, we may not have sufficient financial resources available to repurchase the notes in cash at such time. In addition, our ability to repurchase the notes for cash may be limited by law or the terms of other agreements relating to our indebtedness outstanding at the time.

See “Risk Factors—Risk Factors Relating to the Notes—We may not be able to repurchase the notes upon a change of control triggering event” in this prospectus supplement.

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of the notes to require us to repurchase such holder’s notes as a result of a sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person may be uncertain. In such case, the holders of the notes may not be able to resolve this uncertainty without legal action.

We will comply in all material respects with the requirements of Rule 14e-l under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the notes, we will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the notes by virtue of any such conflict.

For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the notes, the following terms will be applicable:

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

(1) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any person, other than to us or one of our subsidiaries;

(2) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of our outstanding Voting Stock or other Voting Stock into which our Voting Stock is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares;

(3) our consolidation with, or our merger with or into, any person, or any person consolidates with, or merges with or into, us, in either case, pursuant to a transaction in which any of our outstanding Voting Stock or the Voting Stock of such other person is converted into

S-24

or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than pursuant to a transaction in which shares of our Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving person or any direct or indirect parent company of the surviving person immediately after giving effect to such transaction, measured by voting power rather than number of shares;

(4) the first day on which a majority of the members of our board of directors are not Continuing Directors; or

(5) the adoption by our Board of Directors of a plan relating to our liquidation or dissolution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction (or series of related transactions) will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control under clauses (1) or (2) above if we become a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (a) the direct or indirect holders of a majority of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of a majority of our Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (b) the shares of our Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction are converted into or exchanged for a majority of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately after giving effect to such transaction.

The term “person” is used in this definition as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.

“Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Rating Event.

“Continuing Director” means, as of any date of determination, any member of our Board of Directors who (1) was a member of our Board of Directors on the first date the existing 2023 notes were issued, (2) was nominated for election to our Board of Directors with the approval of a committee of the Board of Directors consisting of a majority of independent Continuing Directors or (3) was nominated for election, elected or appointed to our Board of Directors with the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of our Board of Directors at the time of such nomination, election or appointment (either by a specific vote or by approval of a proxy statement in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a director, without objection by such member to such nomination).

“Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than “Baa3” (or the equivalent) by Moody’s and “BBB-” (or the equivalent) by S&P, or, if applicable, the equivalent investment grade credit rating by any Substitute Rating Agency or Substitute Rating Agencies.

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., or any successor thereto.

“Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s and S&P and (2) if any of Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the applicable notes or fails to make a rating of the applicable notes publicly available for reasons outside of our control, a Substitute Rating Agency in lieu thereof.

“Rating Event” means the rating on the notes is lowered independently by each of the Rating Agencies and the notes are rated below an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies, in each case on any day during the period (which period will be extended so long as either of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that, as a result of the Change of Control, the rating of the notes is under consideration for a possible downgrade) commencing 60 days prior to the first public announcement of the occurrence of a Change of Control or of our intention to effect a Change of Control and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of Control.

S-25

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., or any successor thereto.

“Substitute Rating Agency” means a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Rule 15c3-l(c)(2)(vi)(F) under the Exchange Act selected by us (as certified by a resolution of our Board of Directors) as a replacement agency for Moody’s or S&P, or both of them, as the case may be.

“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) as of any date, the capital stock of that person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of that person.

Trustee

U.S. Bank National Association is the initial trustee, paying agent and registrar for the notes.

CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

General

The following discussion is a summary of certain United States federal income tax considerations relevant to the purchase, ownership and disposition of the notes offered hereby by a holder of the notes who purchases the notes for cash pursuant to this offering at the offer price set forth on the cover hereof and who holds the notes as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury regulations thereunder, which generally means property held for investment. This discussion is based upon the Code, Treasury regulations, and judicial decisions and administrative interpretations thereunder, as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, or are subject to different interpretations. We cannot assure you that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) will not challenge one or more of the tax consequences described herein, and we have not obtained, nor do we intend to obtain, a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of counsel with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of purchasing, owning or disposing of the notes.

In this discussion, we do not purport to address all tax considerations that may be important to a particular holder in light of the holder’s circumstances, or to certain categories of investors (such as banks, thrifts or other financial institutions, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities electing to use a mark-to-market method of accounting, persons who hold the notes offered hereby through partnerships or other pass-through entities, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, personal holding companies, U.S. persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, U.S. expatriates, foreign persons (except to the extent specifically provided below) or persons who hold the notes offered hereby as part of a hedge, conversion transaction, straddle or other risk reduction transaction) that may be subject to special rules. This discussion also does not address estate and gift tax consequences, alternative minimum tax consequences or any tax considerations arising under the laws of any foreign, state or local jurisdiction.

If a partnership (including any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or pass-through entity holds the notes offered hereby, the tax treatment of a partner or a member generally will depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership or pass-through entity. A partnership or pass-through entity considering a purchase of the notes, and partners or members in such a partnership or pass-through entity, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of the notes.

Under the terms of the notes, we may be obligated in certain circumstances to pay amounts in excess of stated interest or principal on the notes. It is possible that the IRS could assert that the payment of such excess amounts is a “contingent payment” and the notes are therefore contingent payment debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Under the applicable Treasury regulations, however, for purposes of determining whether a debt instrument is a contingent payment debt instrument, remote or incidental contingencies (determined as of the date the notes are issued) are ignored. Although the issue is not free from doubt, we believe that the possibility of making additional payments is remote and/or incidental. Accordingly, we do not intend to treat the notes as contingent payment debt instruments. Our position will be binding on holders of the notes, unless a holder timely and explicitly discloses to the IRS that it takes a position different from ours. Our position, however, is not binding on the IRS. If the IRS successfully challenges this position, the timing and amount of income included and the character of the income recognized with respect to the notes may be

S-27

materially different from the consequences discussed herein. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the notes being treated as contingent payment debt instruments. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the notes are not treated as contingent payment debt instruments.

YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF THE NOTES OFFERED HEREBY, INCLUDING THE EFFECT AND APPLICABILITY OF FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL OR FOREIGN TAX LAWS OR TAX TREATIES AND THE POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF ANY CHANGES IN APPLICABLE TAX LAWS.

Consequences to U.S. Holders

The following discussion summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to a U.S. holder of the notes offered hereby. You are a U.S. holder for purposes of this discussion if you are a beneficial owner of the notes offered hereby and you are:

Qualified Reopening and Issue Price of the Notes

We intend to treat the issuance of the notes offered hereby as a “qualified reopening” of the existing 2023 notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the issuance of the notes offered hereby is so treated, then the notes offered hereby will be deemed to have the same issue date (February 17, 2015) and issue price (par) as the existing 2023 notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the issuance of the notes offered hereby will be treated as a qualified reopening of the existing 2023 notes.

Pre-Acquisition Accrued Interest

Some portion of the purchase price paid by a holder for the notes offered hereby may be attributable to interest accrued prior to the acquisition of the notes offered hereby (“pre-acquisition accrued interest”). In such case, we intend to take the position that a portion of the first interest payment received by a holder equal to the amount of such pre-acquisition accrued interest will be treated as a nontaxable return of such pre-acquisition accrued interest to the beneficial holder. Investors should consult their tax advisors regarding this possible characterization.

Interest on the Notes

Stated interest on a note generally will be includible in your gross income as ordinary interest income in accordance with your usual method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

S-28

Amortizable Bond Premium

If a U.S. holder purchases the notes for a price (excluding any amount attributable to pre-insurance accrued interest) in excess of the stated principal amount of the notes, such holder will have acquired the notes with bond premium. A U.S. holder may elect under Section 171 of the Code to amortize bond premium under the constant yield method over the remaining term of the notes. If a U.S. holder makes this election, it will apply to all taxable debt instruments having the bond premium that the holder owns or subsequently acquires and may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS. Amortizable bond premium will be treated as an offset to interest income on the notes rather than as a separate item of deduction. If a U.S. holder does not elect to amortize bond premium, then that premium will decrease the gain or increase the loss otherwise recognized on a disposition of the notes.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of the Notes

Upon the disposition of a note offered hereby by sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition, you generally will recognize a capital gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the amount realized on the disposition (other than amounts attributable to accrued interest not previously recognized as income, which will be treated as ordinary interest income as described above) and (ii) your adjusted federal income tax basis in the note. Your adjusted federal income tax basis in a note offered hereby generally will equal the cost of the note to you (adjusted to account for any amortized bond premium). Any capital gain or loss will be a long-term capital gain or loss if you have held the note offered hereby for longer than one year on the date of disposition. You should consult your tax advisors regarding the treatment of capital gains (which may be taxed at lower rates than ordinary income for certain non-corporate taxpayers) and losses (the deductibility of which is subject to certain limitations).

3.8% Medicare Tax On “Net Investment Income”

U.S. holders that are individuals, estates, and certain trusts are subject to an additional 3.8% Medicare tax on the lesser of (a) such holder’s “net investment income” (or undistributed “net investment income” in the case of an estate or trust) for the relevant taxable year and (b) the excess of the U.S. holder’s modified gross income for the taxable year over certain thresholds (generally $200,000 for an unmarried individual, $250,000 for a married taxpayer filing a joint return (or a surviving spouse), or $125,000 for a married individual filing a separate return). Net investment income will generally include interest income and net gains from the disposition of the notes, unless such interest income or net gains are derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of a trade or business (other than a trade or business that consists of certain passive or trading activities). U.S. holders should consult their advisors with respect to their consequences with respect to the 3.8% Medicare tax.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Unless a U.S. holder is an exempt recipient, payments under the notes or proceeds received from the sale of the notes will generally be subject to information reporting and will generally also be subject to U.S. federal backup withholding tax if such U.S. holder fails to supply an accurate taxpayer identification number or otherwise fails to comply with applicable U.S. information reporting or certification requirements. Any amounts so withheld do not constitute a separate tax and will generally be allowed as a refund or a credit against the U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is timely and properly furnished to the IRS.

S-29

Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders

The following discussion summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to a non-U.S. holder of the notes offered hereby. You are a non-U.S. holder for purposes of this discussion if you are a beneficial owner of the notes offered hereby and are not a U.S. holder or an entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

U.S. Federal Withholding Tax

The United States generally imposes a 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) withholding tax on payments of stated interest to non-U.S. holders not effectively connected with their conduct of a trade or business in the United States (or, where required by an applicable tax treaty, not attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base). The 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) U.S. federal withholding tax will not apply to any payment of interest on the notes offered hereby provided that:

In each case, (a) you must provide your name and address on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, and certify under penalties of perjury, that you are not a U.S. person, (b) a financial institution holding the notes offered hereby on your behalf must certify, under penalties of perjury, that it has received an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, from you and must provide us with a copy, or (c) you must hold your notes directly through a “qualified intermediary,” and the qualified intermediary must have sufficient information in its files indicating that you are not a U.S. holder. A qualified intermediary is a bank, broker or other intermediary that is acting out of a non-U.S. branch or office and has signed an agreement with the IRS providing that it will administer all or part of the U.S. federal tax withholding rules under specified procedures.

If you cannot satisfy the requirements described above, payments of interest made to you will be subject to the 30% U.S. federal withholding tax, unless you provide us with a properly executed (1) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, claiming an exemption from or a reduction of withholding under the benefit of a tax treaty or (2) IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form) stating that interest paid on the notes offered hereby is not subject to withholding tax because it is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States.

U.S. Federal Income Tax

Interest.    If you are engaged in a trade or business in the United States and interest on the notes offered hereby is effectively connected with the conduct of that trade or business (and, where required by an applicable tax treaty, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base), you will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the interest on a net income basis (although exempt from the 30% withholding tax) in the same manner as if you were a similarly situated U.S. holder, but without regard to the Medicare surtax described above. In addition, if you are a foreign corporation, you may be subject to a branch profits tax

S-30

equal to 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) of your earnings and profits for the taxable year, including earnings and profits from an investment in the notes offered hereby, that are effectively connected with the conduct by you of a trade or business in the United States (and, where required by an applicable tax treaty, that are attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base).

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Disposition of the Notes.    Any gain or income realized on the sale, exchange, redemption or other disposition of the notes offered hereby generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless:

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Generally, information reporting will apply to the amount of interest paid to each non-U.S. holder and the amount of tax, if any, withheld with respect to those payments. These reporting requirements apply regardless of whether withholding is reduced or eliminated by the Code or an applicable income tax treaty or otherwise. Copies of the information returns reporting such interest payments and any withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which a non-U.S. holder resides under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty or agreement.

In general, a non-U.S. holder will not be subject to U.S. federal backup withholding with respect to payments of interest on the notes if the non-U.S. holder provides an IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (or a successor form) with respect to such payments or otherwise satisfies applicable documentation requirements. In addition, no information reporting or backup withholding will generally be required with respect to the proceeds of a sale or other disposition of the notes by a non-U.S. holder made within the United States or conducted through certain United States-related financial intermediaries if the payor receives such a form or the non-U.S. holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts so withheld will generally be allowed as a refund or a credit against the non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is timely and properly furnished to the IRS.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act

Withholding taxes may be imposed under Sections 1471 to 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or “FATCA”) on certain types of payments made to non-U.S. financial institutions and certain other non-U.S. entities. Specifically, a 30% withholding tax may be imposed on payments of interest on, or gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, a note paid to a “foreign financial institution” or

S-31

a “non-financial foreign entity” (each as defined in the Code), unless (1) the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations, (2) the non-financial foreign entity either certifies it does not have any “substantial United States owners” (as defined in the Code) or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial United States owner, or (3) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. If the payee is a foreign financial institution and is subject to the diligence and reporting requirements in (1) above, it must enter into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury requiring, among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain “specified United States persons” or “United States owned foreign entities” (each as defined in the Code), annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on certain payments to non- compliant foreign financial institutions and certain other account holders. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules.

Withholding under FATCA generally will apply to payments of interest on a note regardless of when they are made. Under the applicable final Treasury regulations, withholding under FATCA generally will only apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of a note on or after January 1, 2019. However, the IRS recently issued proposed Treasury regulations that would eliminate the application of this regime with respect to payments of gross proceeds (but not interest). Pursuant to these proposed Treasury regulations, the issuer and any withholding agent may (but are not required to) rely on this proposed change to FATCA withholding until final regulations are issued or until such proposed Treasury regulations are rescinded. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of withholding under FATCA to their investment in the notes.

UNDERWRITING

Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC are acting as joint book-running managers of the offering and as representatives of the underwriters named below. Subject to the terms and conditions stated in the underwriting agreement dated the date of this prospectus supplement, each underwriter named below has severally agreed to purchase, and we have agreed to sell to that underwriter, the principal amount of notes set forth opposite the underwriter’s name.

The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the notes included in this offering are subject to approval of legal matters by counsel and to other conditions. Each underwriter is obligated to purchase all of the notes allocated to it if it purchases any of the notes.

Notes sold by the underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus supplement. Any notes sold by the underwriters to securities dealers may be sold at a discount from the initial public offering price and any such securities dealers may resell any notes purchased from the underwriters to certain other brokers or dealers at a discount from the initial public offering price. If all the notes are not sold at the initial offering price, the underwriters may change the offering price and the other selling terms. The offering of the notes by the underwriters is subject to receipt and acceptance and subject to the underwriters’ right to reject any order in whole or in part. The underwriters may offer and sell notes through certain of their affiliates.

We have agreed that, for a period of 30 days from the date of this prospectus supplement, other than in connection with the concurrent notes offering, we will not, without the prior written consent of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, directly or indirectly, issue, sell, offer to sell, grant an option for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of, any debt securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any debt securities, issued by us. Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, in their sole discretion may release any of the securities subject to these lock-up agreements at any time without notice.

S-33

The following table shows the underwriting discounts that we are to pay to the underwriters in connection with this offering (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the notes).

We estimate that the total expenses we will incur in connection with this offering of notes and the concurrent notes offering, other than underwriting discounts, will be $1.4 million.

It is expected that delivery of the notes will be made, against payment for the notes, on or about February 20, 2019, which will be the tenth business day following the pricing of the notes. Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers of the notes who wish to trade the notes on the date of this prospectus supplement or the next seven succeeding business days will be required, because the notes initially will settle within ten business days (T+10), to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to trade on the date of this prospectus supplement or the next seven succeeding business days should consult their own legal advisors.

In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell notes in the open market. Purchases and sales in the open market may include short sales, purchases to cover short positions and stabilizing purchases. Short sales involve secondary market sales by the underwriters of a greater number of notes than they are required to purchase in the offering. Covering transactions involve purchases of notes in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover short positions. Stabilizing transactions involve bids to purchase notes so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.

Purchases to cover short positions and stabilizing purchases, as well as other purchases by the underwriters for their own accounts, may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes. They may also cause the price of the notes to be higher than the price that would otherwise exist in the open market in the absence of these transactions. The underwriters may conduct these transactions in the over-the-counter market or otherwise. If the underwriters commence any of these transactions, they may discontinue them at any time. Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the notes. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the representatives will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

The notes have no established trading market. We do not intend to apply for listing of the notes on any national securities exchange or for inclusion of the notes on any automated dealer quotation system. We have been advised by certain of the underwriters that they presently intend to make a market in the notes after completion of the offering. However, they are under no obligation to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without any notice. We cannot assure the liquidity of the trading market for the notes or that an active public market for the notes exists or will develop. If an active public trading market for the notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the notes may be adversely affected. If the notes are traded, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending on prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities, our operating performance and financial condition, general economic conditions and other factors.

S-34

Other Relationships

The underwriters are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. The underwriters and their respective affiliates have in the past performed commercial banking, investment banking and advisory services for us from time to time for which they have received customary fees and reimbursement of expenses and may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for us in the ordinary course of their business for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (which may include bank loans and/or credit default swaps) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and instruments. Such investment and securities activities may involve our securities and instruments. Affiliates of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC are lenders under our revolving credit facility. Adjusted for the Convertible Senior Notes Repayment, as of November 30, 2018, we had $60.0 million of cash borrowings and $28.0 million of letters of credit outstanding under our revolving credit facility. Certain of the underwriters or their affiliates that have a lending relationship with us routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered hereby. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

As described under “Use of Proceeds,” we may use a portion of the net proceeds of this offering to fund the retirement of our 4.75% Senior Notes due 2019. Citigroup Global Markets Inc., BNP Paribas Securities Corp., Wells Fargo Securities LLCs and/or one or more of their affiliates, may be a holder of our 4.75% Senior Notes due 2019 and, accordingly, may receive a portion of the net proceeds of this offering in connection with the retirement thereof. See “Use of Proceeds” and “Capitalization.”

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.

Notice to Prospective Investors in the European Economic Area

The notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC (as amended, the “Insurance Mediation Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended, the “Prospectus Directive”). Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation. This prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus have been prepared on the basis that any offer of the notes in any Member State of the EEA will be

made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of the notes. This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus are not a prospectus for the purposes of the Prospectus Directive.

Each person in a Member State of the EEA to whom any offer of notes is made or who receives any communication in respect of, or who initially acquires any notes under, the offers to the public contemplated in this prospectus supplement, or to whom the notes are otherwise made available will be deemed to have represented, warranted and agreed to and with each of the underwriters and KB Home that it and any person on whose behalf it acquires notes as a financial intermediary, as that term is defined in Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, is: (i) a “qualified investor” within the meaning of the law in that Member State implementing Article 2(1)(e) of the Prospectus Directive; and (ii) not a “retail investor” as defined above.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the SEC utilizing a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf process, we may sell any combination of securities from time to time in one or more offerings. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we may offer. Each time we sell securities, we or parties acting on our behalf will provide one or more supplemental prospectuses that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering and the securities being sold in that offering. A supplemental prospectus may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. You should read both this prospectus and any such supplemental prospectus prepared by us or on our behalf, together with additional information described immediately below under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information.”

RATIOS OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

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

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

The debt securities will be our senior, senior subordinated or subordinated debt securities. The senior debt securities will be issued under a senior indenture dated as of January 28, 2004, as amended and supplemented, by and between us, the Guarantors (as defined below) party thereto from time to time and U.S. Bank National Association (successor in interest to SunTrust Bank), as trustee. The senior subordinated debt securities will be issued under a senior subordinated indenture by and between us, the Guarantors party thereto from time to time and

4

the trustee named in a supplemental prospectus relating to an issue of our senior subordinated debt securities. The subordinated debt securities will be issued under a subordinated indenture by and between us, the Guarantors party thereto from time to time and the trustee named in a supplemental prospectus relating to an issue of our subordinated debt securities. Throughout this section, we will refer either to the indentures, which includes the senior indenture, the senior subordinated indenture and the subordinated indenture, each as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, or individually to each separate indenture, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, where appropriate.

The following summary of some of the terms of our debt securities and the indentures sets forth certain general terms that might apply to the debt securities. The particular terms of any debt securities will be described in a supplemental prospectus relating to those debt securities. To the extent that any description in a supplemental prospectus of particular terms of debt securities or of an indenture differs from this description, this description will be deemed to have been superseded by such description in respect of those particular terms of the debt securities or that indenture.

Copies of the forms of indentures and the forms of certificates evidencing the debt securities have been or will be filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part or as exhibits to documents that are or will be incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You may obtain copies of these documents as described above under “Where You Can Find More Information,” and we urge you to read these documents before you invest in the debt securities. The following is a summary of selected provisions of the indentures and the debt securities. Certain terms used in this description are defined below in the subsection “- Certain Definitions.” This summary is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to all the provisions of the indentures and the certificates evidencing the debt securities, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Some capitalized terms used in the following summary and not defined have the meanings given to those terms in the applicable indentures.

In this section, references to “KB Home,” “we,” “our” and “us” mean KB Home excluding, unless the context otherwise requires or we otherwise expressly state, our subsidiaries.

General

Each indenture provides that we may issue debt securities under that indenture from time to time in one or more series, and permits us to establish the terms of the debt securities of each series at the time of issuance. None of the indentures limit the amounts of debt securities we may issue under that indenture.

Under each indenture, we may, without the consent of the holders of any debt securities issued under that indenture, from time to time in the future “reopen” any series of debt securities and issue additional debt securities of that series. The debt securities of a series and any additional debt securities of that series that we may issue in the future upon a reopening will constitute together a single series of debt securities under that indenture. This means that, in circumstances where an indenture provides for the holders of debt securities of any series to vote or take any action, the original debt securities of a series, together with any additional debt securities of that series that we may issue by reopening the series, will vote or take an action as a single class.

The debt securities will be our unsecured senior, unsecured senior subordinated or unsecured subordinated obligations. See “- Holding Company Structure” and “- Ranking” below. The debt securities will initially have the benefit of guarantees (each a “Guarantee” and, collectively, the “Guarantees”) from certain of our subsidiaries. The Guarantors as of the date of this prospectus are KB HOME Sacramento Inc., KB HOME South Bay Inc., KB HOME Coastal Inc., and KB HOME Greater Los Angeles Inc., each a California corporation; KB HOME Tampa LLC, KB HOME Fort Myers LLC, KB HOME Treasure Coast LLC, and KB HOME Florida LLC, each a Delaware limited liability company; KB HOME Las Vegas Inc. and KB HOME Reno Inc., each a Nevada corporation; KB HOME Lone Star Inc. and KBSA, Inc., each a Texas corporation; KB HOME Phoenix Inc. and KB HOME Tucson Inc., each an Arizona corporation; and KB HOME Colorado Inc., a Colorado corporation. Under certain circumstances, any or all of the Guarantors may be released from their Guarantees of the debt securities, or other of our Subsidiaries may be required to guarantee the debt securities. See “- Guarantees.” Each Guarantee will be the unsecured senior, unsecured senior subordinated or unsecured subordinated obligation of the related Guarantor. See “- Ranking.”

The debt securities may be denominated and payable in United States dollars or foreign currencies or units based on or relating to foreign currencies. Special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to any debt securities so denominated will be described in a supplemental prospectus.

Although the indentures permit us to issue debt securities in bearer form, unless otherwise provided in a supplemental prospectus, the debt securities will be issued only in fully registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

A supplemental prospectus relating to the debt securities of the series offered thereby, which we sometimes refer to as the “offered debt securities,” will specify the following terms of the offered debt securities, if applicable:

Exchange, Registration and Transfer

Registered debt securities may be transferred and debt securities in registered or bearer form may be exchanged at the office or agency that we maintain for these purposes which, unless otherwise provided in respect of a series of debt securities in a supplemental prospectus, will be located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The office or agency initially maintained by us for the foregoing purposes will be the office of the trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York designated for such purpose. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of debt securities, but we may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. Debt securities in bearer form and related coupons, if any, will be transferable upon delivery.

In the case of debt securities of any series that are redeemable at our option, we will not be required to issue, exchange or register a transfer of:

6

Payment and Paying Agent

We will pay principal of and any premium or interest on registered debt securities in the designated currency or currency unit at the office or agency maintained by us for that purpose which, unless otherwise provided in respect of a series of debt securities in a supplemental prospectus, will be located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; provided that payments of interest on registered debt securities may be made, at our option, by check mailed to the address of the persons entitled thereto or by transfer to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located in the United States; and provided, further, that payments on registered debt securities in global form that are registered in the name of a depository or its nominee will be made by wire transfer, unless otherwise provided in a supplemental prospectus. The office or agency initially maintained by us for the foregoing purposes will be the office of the trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York designated for such purpose. Interest payable on coupons pertaining to debt securities in bearer form will be paid only upon presentation and surrender of those coupons.

If any amount payable on any debt security or coupon remains unclaimed at the end of two years after the amount became due and payable, the trustee or paying agent will, on our request, release any unclaimed amounts to us, and the holder of that debt security or coupon, as the case may be, shall look only to us and the Guarantors for any payment they may be entitled to collect, subject to the escheatment of any unclaimed amounts pursuant to applicable state law.

If any interest payment date, redemption date, date for repayment or repurchase at the option of the holder or maturity date of any of the debt securities is not a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then payment of principal and any premium or interest need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment, and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such interest payment date, redemption date, date for repayment or repurchase at the option of the holder or maturity date, as the case may be.

Book-Entry; Delivery and Form

If the debt securities of any series will be issued in the form of one or more global debt securities in fully registered form, without interest coupons (each, a “global debt security”), each global debt security will be deposited with, or on behalf of, a custodian for the applicable depository (“Depository”) and will be registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee. Unless we specify otherwise in a supplemental prospectus, the Depository for the global debt securities will be The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York. Investors may hold their beneficial interests in a global debt security directly through the Depository, if they are participants (as defined below) in the Depository’s electronic book-entry registration and transfer system, or indirectly through organizations that are participants in the system.

Except as set forth below, the global debt securities may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or its nominee to a successor depository or any nominee of such successor. Beneficial interests in global debt securities may not be exchanged for debt securities in definitive certificated form (“certificated debt securities”) except in the limited circumstances described below.

All interests in the global debt securities will be subject to the procedures and requirements of the Depository.

7

Certificated Debt Securities. The indentures provide that the global debt securities of any series will be exchangeable for certificated debt securities of that series if:

Upon any such exchange, we will execute, and the applicable trustee will authenticate and deliver, certificated debt securities of the applicable series in exchange for interests in the global debt securities of that series. We anticipate that those certificated debt securities will be registered in such names as the Depository instructs the trustee and that those instructions will be based upon directions received by the Depository from its participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the global debt securities of that series.

Book-Entry System. The Depository has advised us that it is:

The Depository holds securities of institutions that have accounts with the Depository (“participants”) and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions among its participants in such securities through electronic book-entry changes in the accounts of its participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. The Depository’s participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations, some of whom (or their representatives) own the Depository. Indirect access to the Depository’s book-entry system is also available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies (“indirect participants”) that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or indirectly. Investors who are not participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of the Depository only through participants or indirect participants.

We expect that, upon the issuance of a global debt security, the Depository will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the respective principal amounts of the debt securities represented by such global debt security to the accounts of participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in such global debt security will be limited to participants or persons that may hold interests, directly or indirectly, through participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in such global debt security will be shown on, and the transfer of those beneficial interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the Depository or its nominee (with respect to participants’ interests) and records maintained by participants and indirect participants (with respect to the owners of beneficial interests in the global debt securities other than participants). Likewise, beneficial interests in a global debt security may be transferred only in accordance with the Depository’s procedures, in addition to those provided for under the indentures. The laws of some jurisdictions may require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such debt securities in definitive form. Such limits and laws may impair the ability to transfer or pledge beneficial interests in the global debt securities.

So long as the Depository or its nominee is the registered holder of the global debt security of any series, the Depository or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner and holder of the related debt securities for all purposes under the applicable indenture. Except as described herein, owners of beneficial interests in such global debt security will not be entitled to have the debt securities represented by such global debt security registered in their names and will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of

8

certificated debt securities. In addition, owners of beneficial interests in such global debt security will not be considered to be the owners or registered holders of the debt securities represented by those beneficial interests under the applicable indenture for any purpose, including with respect to the giving of any direction, instruction or approval to the trustee. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a global debt security of any series must rely on the procedures of the Depository and, if such person is not a participant, on the procedures of the person or persons through which such person owns its beneficial interest in order to exercise any right of a registered holder of debt securities of that series. We understand that under existing industry practice, if the Depository is entitled to take any action as the registered holder of a global debt security, the Depository or its nominee would authorize its participants to take such action and that the participants and the indirect participants would authorize owners of beneficial interests owning through them to take such action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of owners of beneficial interests.

Payment of principal of and any premium or interest on debt securities represented by a global debt security registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee will be made to the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of such global debt security. We expect that the Depository or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment in respect of a global debt security, will credit its participants’ accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of such global debt security as shown on the records of the Depository or its nominee. We also expect that payments by participants and indirect participants to owners of beneficial interests in a global debt security will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of such participants and indirect participants and not of the Depository. We will not have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, ownership of beneficial interests in any global debt security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial interests or for any other aspect of the relationship between the Depository and its participants and indirect participants or the relationship between such participants and indirect participants and the owners of beneficial interests owning through such participants and indirect participants.

The information in this subsection “— Book-Entry; Delivery and Form” concerning the Depository and its book-entry system has been obtained from sources that we believe to be reliable, but we take no responsibility for its accuracy.

Holding Company Structure

The debt securities will initially be guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries. See “— Guarantees” below. However, subsidiaries of ours that are not Guarantors of the debt securities can generate significant revenues and income for us and may hold a significant amount of our consolidated assets. We refer to these subsidiaries as the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.”

We are a holding company, and we conduct our operations through subsidiaries. We derive substantially all our revenues from our subsidiaries, and all our operating assets are owned by our subsidiaries. As a result, our cash flow and our ability to service our debt, including the debt securities, depends on the results of operations of our subsidiaries and upon the ability of our subsidiaries to provide us cash. Our subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities, and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have no obligation to make payments on the debt securities or to make any funds available for that purpose. In addition, dividends, loans or other distributions from our subsidiaries to us may be subject to contractual and other restrictions, depend on their results of operations and are subject to other business considerations.

Because of our holding company structure, the debt securities will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. These liabilities may include secured and unsecured indebtedness, trade payables, guarantees, lease obligations and letter of credit obligations. Therefore, our rights and the rights of our creditors, including the holders of the debt securities, to participate in the assets of any Non-Guarantor Subsidiary upon that subsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization will be subject to the prior claims of that subsidiary’s creditors and of the holders of any indebtedness or other obligations guaranteed by that subsidiary, except to the extent that we may ourselves be a creditor with recognized claims against that subsidiary. However, even if we are a creditor of one of our Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, our claims would still be effectively subordinated to any security interests in, or mortgages or other liens on, the assets of that subsidiary and would be subordinate to any indebtedness of that subsidiary senior to that held by us.

See “— Ranking — Subordination of Senior Subordinated Debt Securities and Guarantees” and “— Ranking — Subordination of Subordinated Debt Securities and Guarantees” below for information as to the terms on which the senior subordinated debt securities and the subordinated debt securities and the related Guarantees will be subordinated in right of payment to Senior Indebtedness. The debt securities and the Guarantees will also be effectively subordinated to our secured indebtedness and to the secured indebtedness of the Guarantors, respectively.

Guarantees

The senior indenture provides that payment of principal of, and any premium and interest on, the senior debt securities will be unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured senior basis by the Guarantors. The senior subordinated indenture provides that payment of principal of, and any premium and interest on, the senior subordinated debt securities will be unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured senior subordinated basis by the Guarantors. The subordinated indenture provides that payment of principal of, and any premium and interest on, the subordinated debt securities will be unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured subordinated basis by the Guarantors.

Each indenture provides that the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee are limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. However, there can be no assurance that, notwithstanding this limitation, a court would not find that a Guarantee violated applicable fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws. If that were to occur, the court could void the applicable Guarantor’s obligations under that Guarantee, subordinate that Guarantee to other debt of the Guarantor or take other action detrimental to holders of the debt securities, including directing the return of any payments received by holders from the applicable Guarantor.

Ranking of Guarantees. For information regarding the ranking of the Guarantees of the senior debt securities, the Guarantees of the senior subordinated debt securities and the Guarantees of the subordinated debt securities, see “— Ranking” below.

Release of Guarantors. Each indenture provides that, for so long as we are not a party to or bound by the terms of any Substitute Credit Facility, if a Guarantor shall cease to be a Domestic Significant Subsidiary, such Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all of its obligations under such indenture and its Guarantee of the debt securities issued under such indenture without any further action required on the part of us, the other Guarantors, the trustee under such indenture or any holder of debt securities issued under such indenture; provided that all guarantees by such Guarantor of any other Indebtedness of ours and of any our Subsidiaries (other than, in the case of the senior subordinated indenture, guarantees that constitute Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor under the senior subordinated indenture and, in the case of the subordinated indenture, guarantees that constitute Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor under the subordinated indenture) are terminated at or prior to the time of such release.

Additional Guarantors. Each indenture provides that, for so long as we are a party to or bound by the terms of any Substitute Credit Facility, if any of our Subsidiaries that is not then a Guarantor guarantees any indebtedness or other obligations of ours under any Substitute Credit Facility, then, contemporaneously with or prior to the effectiveness of such guarantee, we shall cause such Subsidiary to enter into a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor under such indenture. Each indenture also provides that, for so long as we are not a party to or bound by the terms of any Substitute Credit Facility, if any of our Subsidiaries that is not a Guarantor either (a) is or becomes a Domestic Significant Subsidiary or (b) guarantees any Subject Notes, then we shall cause such Subsidiary to enter into a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor under such indenture.

Each indenture also provides that, anything therein to the contrary notwithstanding, we will not cause or permit any of our Subsidiaries to guarantee any of the Subject Notes unless such Subsidiary is either a Guarantor of the debt securities under such indenture or, contemporaneously with or prior to the effectiveness of such Subsidiary’s guarantee of such Subject Notes, such Subsidiary enters into a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Subsidiary becomes a Guarantor under such indenture.

10

As used in the three preceding paragraphs, the term “guarantee” (but not the term “Guarantee”) means, with respect to any Person, any obligation, contingent or otherwise, of such Person directly or indirectly guaranteeing any Indebtedness of any other Person including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any obligation, direct or indirect, contingent or otherwise, of such Person to purchase or pay principal of or interest on (or advance or supply funds or pledge assets for the purchase or payment of the principal of or payment of interest on) Indebtedness of such other Person (whether by agreement to provide additional capital or to maintain financial condition or other similar agreement), and such term, when used as a verb in any of the three preceding paragraphs, shall have a correlative meaning.

Ranking

Ranking of Senior Debt Securities and Guarantees

Our senior debt securities will be unsecured and will rank equally in right of payment with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. Each Guarantee of senior debt securities by a Guarantor will be an unsecured senior obligation of such Guarantor and will rank equally in right of payment with all of such Guarantor’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and guarantees. However, the senior debt securities will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of our Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, and the senior debt securities and each Guarantor’s Guarantee of the senior debt securities will also be effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness of ours and of such Guarantor, respectively, all as described above under “— Holding Company Structure.”

Subordination of Senior Subordinated Debt Securities and Guarantees

Our senior subordinated debt securities will be unsecured and will be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the senior subordinated indenture, to all of our existing and future Senior Indebtedness, including the senior debt securities. Each Guarantee of senior subordinated debt securities by a Guarantor will be an unsecured obligation of such Guarantor and will be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the senior subordinated indenture, to all of such Guarantor’s existing and future Senior Indebtedness, including any Guarantees of senior debt securities.

The senior subordinated indenture defines “Senior Indebtedness” with respect to us or any Guarantor of the senior subordinated debt securities, as the case may be, to mean the principal of (and premium, if any) and unpaid interest (including interest accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any proceeding pursuant to any Bankruptcy Laws, whether or not the payment of such interest is permitted by law) or accrued original issue discount on and other amounts due on or in connection with any Debt incurred, assumed or guaranteed by us or such Guarantor, as the case may be, whether outstanding on the date of the senior subordinated indenture or thereafter incurred, assumed or guaranteed and all renewals, extensions and refundings of any such Debt; provided, however , that the following will not constitute Senior Indebtedness of ours or such Guarantor, as the case may be:

11

The senior subordinated indenture provides that, for purposes of the foregoing definition, all references to Debt of any Guarantor shall include all obligations of such Guarantor as a guarantor of any Debt of others and, without limitation to the foregoing, any guarantee by such Guarantor of any senior debt securities issued by us under the senior indenture shall constitute Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor.

Anti-Layering Covenant. The senior subordinated indenture provides that neither we nor any Guarantor of the senior subordinated debt securities will incur any Debt that is subordinated by the terms of the instrument creating such Debt in right of payment to any other Debt of ours or of such Guarantor, respectively, and that is not expressly by the terms of the instrument creating such Debt made pari passu with, or subordinate and junior in right of payment to, the senior subordinated debt securities or such Guarantor’s Guarantee of the senior subordinated debt securities, respectively. The senior subordinated indenture provides that, for purposes of the preceding sentence, references to Debt of any Guarantor shall include all obligations of such Guarantor as guarantor of any Debt of others.

Subordination Following Insolvency or Bankruptcy. The senior subordinated indenture provides that, upon any distribution of our assets in the event of:

Notwithstanding the provisions described in the preceding paragraph, if the trustee under the senior subordinated indenture or the holder of any senior subordinated debt securities receives any payment or distribution of our assets, subject to limited exceptions, before all of our Senior Indebtedness is paid in full or payment of all of our Senior Indebtedness is provided for, that payment or distribution will be held in trust for the benefit of and paid over or delivered to the holders of that Senior Indebtedness or their representatives to the extent necessary to pay all of our Senior Indebtedness in full.

Our consolidation with or our merger into another corporation or our liquidation or dissolution following the conveyance or transfer of all or substantially all our assets to another Person upon the terms and conditions described below under “— Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets” will not be deemed a liquidation,

12

dissolution, winding-up, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of our assets and liabilities, or the like, for the purposes of the subordination provisions described above if the successor or transferee Person shall, as a part of that transaction, comply with the conditions described under “— Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets.”

Prohibition on Payments Following Acceleration of the Senior Subordinated Debt Securities. If payment of any of our senior subordinated debt securities is accelerated because of an Event of Default, we must promptly notify holders of our Senior Indebtedness of the acceleration. We may not pay or acquire the senior subordinated debt securities until 135 days have passed after that acceleration occurs and may thereafter pay or acquire the senior subordinated debt securities only if we are permitted to do so under the subordination provisions of our senior subordinated indenture.

Prohibition on Payments Following Certain Defaults on Senior Indebtedness. We may not make any payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or unpaid interest on or any other amount owing in respect of the senior subordinated debt securities, and we may not acquire any senior subordinated debt securities for cash or property, if:

We may resume making payments on the senior subordinated debt securities and may acquire senior subordinated debt securities if and when:

and, in any case described above, the subordination provisions of the senior subordinated indenture otherwise permit the payment or acquisition of senior subordinated debt securities at that time.

If, notwithstanding the provisions described in the two immediately preceding paragraphs, we make any payment to the trustee for, or the holders of, the senior subordinated debt securities that is prohibited by those provisions, then that payment will be held in trust for the benefit of and be paid over or delivered to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or their representatives.

Subordination Provisions Applicable to the Guarantors and Prohibitions on Payments by the Guarantors. A Guarantor’s obligations under its Guarantee of our senior subordinated debt securities are senior subordinated obligations of such Guarantor. As a result, a Guarantor’s obligations to make payments under its Guarantee of our senior subordinated debt securities will be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor on substantially the same terms (as described above) as our obligations to make payments on our senior subordinated debt securities are subordinated in right of payment to all of our existing and future Senior Indebtedness. Accordingly, payments under each Guarantor’s Guarantee of the senior subordinated debt securities will be subordinated to the prior payment of all Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor under subordination and payment blockage provisions substantially the same as those pursuant to which our obligations under the senior subordinated debt securities will be subordinated to the prior payment of our Senior Indebtedness as described above. For example, if there is any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding relative to a Guarantor, holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor will be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due in respect of the Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor before any payment is made under its Guarantee of the senior subordinated debt securities, all on terms

13

substantially similar to those described above under “— Subordination Following Insolvency or Bankruptcy.” Likewise, each Guarantor will be prohibited from making any payment under its Guarantee of the senior subordinated debt securities if the senior subordinated debt securities are accelerated because of an Event of Default or if a default on any of our Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing that permits holders of that Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity, all on terms substantially similar to those described above under “— Prohibition on Payments Following Acceleration of the Senior Subordinated Debt Securities” and “— Prohibition on Payments Following Certain Defaults on Senior Indebtedness.” In addition, the payment blockage provisions described under “— Prohibition on Payments Following Certain Defaults on Senior Indebtedness,” insofar as they apply to any Guarantor of the senior subordinated debt securities, will also prohibit such Guarantor from making any payment under its Guarantee of the senior subordinated debt securities if a default on any of its Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing that permits holders of that Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity.

The consolidation of any Guarantor with, or the merger of any Guarantor into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of any Guarantor following the conveyance or transfer of all or substantially all its assets to another Person upon the terms and conditions described below under “— Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets” will not be deemed a liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of assets and liabilities, or the like, of such Guarantor for the purposes of the subordination provisions described above under “— Subordination Following Insolvency or Bankruptcy” if the successor or transferee Person shall, as part of that transaction and if required by the provisions described above under “— Guarantees — Additional Guarantors,” become a Guarantor in accordance with the applicable provisions described above under “— Guarantees — Additional Guarantors.”

As a result of these subordination provisions, our creditors and creditors of the Guarantors who hold neither our senior subordinated debt securities nor our Senior Indebtedness may recover less, ratably, than holders of our Senior Indebtedness and may recover more, ratably, than the holders of our senior subordinated debt securities.

If this prospectus is being delivered in connection with a series of senior subordinated debt securities, a supplemental prospectus, or the information incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in this prospectus, will indicate the approximate amount of our Senior Indebtedness outstanding as of a recent date.

Subordination of Subordinated Debt Securities and Guarantees

Our subordinated debt securities will be unsecured and will be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the subordinated indenture, to all of our existing and future “Senior Indebtedness,” including the senior debt securities and the senior subordinated debt securities. Each Guarantee of subordinated debt securities by a Guarantor will be an unsecured obligation of such Guarantor and will be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in the subordinated indenture, to all of such Guarantor’s existing and future Senior Indebtedness, including any Guarantees of senior debt securities and senior subordinated debt securities.

The subordinated indenture defines “Senior Indebtedness” with respect to us or any Guarantor of the subordinated debt securities, as the case may be, to mean the principal of (and premium, if any) and unpaid interest (including interest accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any proceeding pursuant to any Bankruptcy Laws, whether or not the payment of such interest is permitted by law) or accrued original issue discount on and other amounts due on or in connection with any Debt incurred, assumed or guaranteed by us or such Guarantor, as the case may be, whether outstanding on the date of the subordinated indenture or thereafter incurred, assumed or guaranteed and all renewals, extensions and refundings of any such Debt; provided, however , that the following will not constitute Senior Indebtedness of ours or of such Guarantor, as the case may be:

14

The subordinated indenture provides that, for purposes of the foregoing definition, all references to Debt of any Guarantor shall include all obligations of such Guarantor as a guarantor of any Debt of others and, without limitation to the foregoing, any guarantee by such Guarantor of (a) senior debt securities issued by us under the senior indenture, and (b) senior subordinated debt securities issued by us under our senior subordinated indenture.

Subordination Following Insolvency or Bankruptcy. The subordinated indenture provides that, upon any distribution of our assets in the event of:

If, notwithstanding the provisions described in the preceding paragraph, the trustee under the subordinated indenture or the holder of any subordinated debt securities receives any payment or distribution of our assets, subject to limited exceptions, before all of our Senior Indebtedness is paid in full or payment of all of our Senior Indebtedness is provided for, that payment or distribution will be held in trust for the benefit of and paid over or delivered to the holders of that Senior Indebtedness or their representatives to the extent necessary to pay all of our Senior Indebtedness in full.

Our consolidation with or our merger into another corporation or our liquidation or dissolution following the conveyance or transfer of all or substantially all our assets to another Person upon the terms and conditions described below under “— Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets” will not be deemed a liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of our assets and liabilities, or the like, for the purposes of the subordination provisions described above if the successor or transferee Person shall, as a part of that transaction, comply with the conditions described under “— Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets.”

15

Prohibition on Payments Following Acceleration of the Subordinated Debt Securities. If payment of any of our subordinated debt securities is accelerated because of an Event of Default, we must promptly notify holders of our Senior Indebtedness of the acceleration. We may not pay or acquire the subordinated debt securities until 135 days have passed after that acceleration occurs and may thereafter pay or acquire the subordinated debt securities only if we are permitted to do so under the subordination provisions of our subordinated indenture.

Prohibition on Payments Following Certain Defaults on Senior Indebtedness. We may not make any payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or unpaid interest on or any other amount owing in respect of the subordinated debt securities, and we may not acquire any subordinated debt securities for cash or property, if:

We may resume making payments on the subordinated debt securities and may acquire subordinated debt securities if and when:

and, in any case described above, the subordination provisions of the subordinated indenture otherwise permit the payment or acquisition of subordinated debt securities at that time.

If, notwithstanding the provisions described in the two immediately preceding paragraphs, we make any payment to the trustee for, or the holders of, the subordinated debt securities that is prohibited by those provisions, then that payment will be held in trust for the benefit of and be paid over or delivered to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or their representatives.

Subordination Provisions Applicable to the Guarantors and Prohibitions on Payments by the Guarantors. A Guarantor’s obligations under its Guarantee of our subordinated debt securities are subordinated obligations of such Guarantor. As a result, a Guarantor’s obligations to make payments under its Guarantee of our subordinated debt securities will be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor on substantially the same terms (as described above) that our obligations to make payments on our subordinated debt securities are subordinated in right of payment to all of our existing and future Senior Indebtedness. Accordingly, payments under each Guarantor’s Guarantee of the subordinated debt securities will be subordinated to the prior payment of all Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor under subordination and payment blockage provisions substantially the same as those pursuant to which our obligations under the subordinated debt securities will be subordinated to the prior payment of our Senior Indebtedness as described above. For example, if there is any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding relative to a Guarantor, holders of Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor will be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due in respect of the Senior Indebtedness of such Guarantor before any payment is made under its Guarantee of the subordinated debt securities, all on terms substantially similar to those described above under “— Subordination Following Insolvency or Bankruptcy.” Likewise, each Guarantor will be prohibited from making any payment under its Guarantee of the subordinated debt securities if the subordinated debt securities are accelerated because of an Event of Default or if a default on any of our Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing that permits holders of that Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity, all on terms substantially similar to those described above under “— Prohibition on Payments Following Acceleration of the Subordinated Debt Securities” and “— Prohibition on Payments Following Certain Defaults on Senior Indebtedness.” In

16

addition, the payment blockage provisions described under “— Prohibition on Payments Following Certain Defaults on Senior Indebtedness,” insofar as they apply to any Guarantor of the subordinated debt securities, will also prohibit such Guarantor from making any payment under its Guarantee of the subordinated debt securities if a default on any of its Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing that permits holders of that Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity.

The consolidation of any Guarantor with, or the merger of any Guarantor into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of any Guarantor following the conveyance or transfer of all or substantially all its assets to another Person upon the terms and conditions described below under “— Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets” will not be deemed a liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of assets and liabilities, or the like, of such Guarantor for the purposes of the subordination provisions described above under “— Subordination Following Insolvency or Bankruptcy” if the successor or transferee Person shall, as part of that transaction and if required by the provisions described above under “— Guarantees — Additional Guarantors,” become a Guarantor in accordance with the applicable provisions described above under “— Guarantees — Additional Guarantors.”

As a result of these subordination provisions, our creditors and creditors of the Guarantors who hold neither our subordinated debt securities nor our Senior Indebtedness may recover less, ratably, than holders of our Senior Indebtedness and may recover more, ratably, than the holders of our subordinated debt securities.

If this prospectus is being delivered in connection with a series of subordinated debt securities, a supplemental prospectus, or the information incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in this prospectus, will indicate the approximate amount of our Senior Indebtedness outstanding as of a recent date.

Certain Covenants

Unless otherwise expressly provided in a supplemental prospectus, the following covenants will apply with respect to each series of senior debt securities but will not apply with respect to any series of senior subordinated debt securities or subordinated debt securities.

Except as described below with respect to the senior indenture, none of the indentures limit the amount of secured or unsecured indebtedness or the amount of lease obligations or other liabilities that may be incurred by us, our subsidiaries or entities in which we have an ownership interest but which do not constitute subsidiaries. Neither we nor any of our subsidiaries is restricted under any of the indentures from paying dividends or issuing or repurchasing securities. In addition, none of the indentures contains any provision that would permit holders of debt securities issued under that indenture to require us to repurchase those debt securities if there is a change in control of us or otherwise, nor do any of the indentures contain provisions intended to protect investors if there is a recapitalization, highly leveraged transaction or other similar transaction affecting us or our subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the terms of our 9.100% Senior Notes due 2017 (“9.100% Senior Notes”), our 4.75% Senior Notes due 2019 (“4.75% Senior Notes”), our 8.00% Senior Notes due 2020 (“8.00% Senior Notes”), our 7.000% Senior Notes due 2021 (“7.000% Senior Notes”), our 7.5% Senior Notes due 2022 (“7.5% Senior Notes”), and our 7.625% Senior Notes due 2023 (“7.625% Senior Notes”) require us to repurchase those notes if there is a change in control of us, and the terms of our 1.375% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 (“1.375% Convertible Notes”) permit the holders thereof to require us to repurchase those notes if there is a fundamental change, in each case, as further described below under “ Description of Debt Securities — Change in Control Trigger for Certain Senior Notes.”

As described below, the senior indenture contains a covenant that limits our ability and the ability of our Restricted Subsidiaries to incur Secured Debt and a covenant that limits our ability and the ability of our Restricted Subsidiaries to enter into certain Sale and Leaseback Transactions. However, these covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and limitations and prospective purchasers of senior debt securities should carefully review the information with respect to these covenants and the related definitions appearing below. In that regard, the senior indenture does not limit the amount of unsecured indebtedness or the amount of lease obligations (other than lease obligations under certain Sale and Leaseback Transactions) or other liabilities that may be incurred by us and our Restricted Subsidiaries, nor does the senior indenture limit the amount of indebtedness, whether secured or unsecured, or the amount of lease obligations or other liabilities that may be incurred by our subsidiaries which are not Restricted Subsidiaries or by entities in which we have an ownership interest but do not constitute Restricted Subsidiaries.

17

The senior indenture contains, among others, the following covenants:

Restrictions on Secured Debt. The senior indenture provides that we will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, incur, assume or guarantee any Secured Debt unless the senior debt securities are secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Secured Debt; provided that this restriction does not prohibit the creation, incurrence, assumption or guarantee of Secured Debt that is secured by Security Interests:

In addition, we and our Restricted Subsidiaries may create, incur, assume or guarantee Secured Debt, without equally and ratably securing the senior debt securities, if immediately thereafter the sum of (a) the aggregate principal amount of all Secured Debt outstanding (excluding Secured Debt permitted under clauses (1) through (6) above and any Secured Debt in relation to which the senior debt securities have been secured equally and ratably (or prior to)) and (b) all Attributable Debt in respect of Sale and Leaseback Transactions (excluding Attributable Debt in respect of Sale and Leaseback Transactions satisfying the conditions set forth in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of the first sentence, or meeting the requirements set forth in the second sentence, under “— Restrictions on Sale and Leaseback Transactions”) as of the date of determination would not exceed 20% of our Consolidated Net Tangible Assets as of such date.

A substantial portion of the book value of our assets and the assets of our Restricted Subsidiaries could be pledged to secure Indebtedness without violating the foregoing covenant. Among other things, this covenant allows us and our Restricted Subsidiaries to incur Indebtedness secured by homes held for sale, homes that are under contract for sale, contracts for the sale of homes and both improved and unimproved land, which in the past have typically represented a substantial portion of the book value of our consolidated assets. Accordingly, investors should be aware that this covenant allows us and/or our Restricted Subsidiaries to incur substantial amounts of Secured Debt without being required to equally and ratably secure the senior debt securities.

The provisions described above with respect to limitations on Secured Debt are also not applicable to certain types of Non-Recourse Indebtedness by virtue of the definition of Secured Debt, and will not restrict or limit our or our Restricted Subsidiaries’ ability to create, incur, assume or guarantee any unsecured Indebtedness, or the ability of any of our subsidiaries that is not a Restricted Subsidiary to create, incur, assume or guarantee any secured or unsecured Indebtedness.

18

Restrictions on Sale and Leaseback Transactions. The senior indenture provides that we will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale and Leaseback Transaction after the date of the senior indenture, unless:

These provisions will not apply to a Sale and Leaseback Transaction if, at the time such Sale and Leaseback Transaction is entered into, the term of the related lease to us or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary of the property being sold pursuant to such transaction is three years or less. In addition, these provisions will not apply to a Sale and Leaseback Transaction that we and our Restricted Subsidiaries enter into if immediately thereafter the sum of (a) the aggregate principal amount of all Secured Debt outstanding (excluding Secured Debt permitted under clauses (1) through (6) of the first paragraph under “— Restrictions on Secured Debt” above and any Secured Debt in relation to which the senior debt securities have been secured equally and ratably (or prior to)) and (b) all Attributable Debt in respect of Sale and Leaseback Transactions (excluding Attributable Debt in respect of Sale and Leaseback Transactions satisfying the conditions set forth in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of the first sentence, or meeting the requirements set forth in the second sentence, under this caption “— Restrictions on Sale and Leaseback Transactions”) as of the date of determination would not exceed 20% of our Consolidated Net Tangible Assets as of such date.

Change in Control Trigger for Certain Senior Notes

Unlike our other senior notes, with respect to our 9.100% Senior Notes, our 4.75% Senior Notes, our 8.00% Senior Notes, our 7.000% Senior Notes, our 7.5% Senior Notes, and our 7.625% Senior Notes (each, a “CIC Senior Note”), unless we have exercised our option to redeem the CIC Senior Notes by notifying the holders to that effect as described in the CIC Senior Notes, if a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs as defined in the terms of such CIC Senior Notes, we will be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder of such CIC Senior Notes to repurchase all or any part of that holder’s CIC Senior Notes on the terms set forth therein. In a Change of Control Offer, we will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the CIC Senior Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the CIC Senior Notes repurchased up to, but not including, the date of repurchase (a “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at our option, prior to any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, notice will be given to holders of the CIC Senior Notes describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the CIC Senior Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date that notice is given or, if the notice is given prior to the Change of Control, no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date on which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, other than in each case as may be required by law (a “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if mailed prior to the date of

19

consummation of the Change of Control, state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the applicable Change of Control Payment Date.

On each Change of Control Payment Date, we will, to the extent lawful:

We will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and price and otherwise substantially in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by us and the third party promptly purchases all CIC Senior Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, we will not repurchase any CIC Senior Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an event of default under the indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

If we are required to offer to repurchase the CIC Senior Notes upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, we may not have sufficient funds to repurchase the CIC Senior Notes in cash at such time. In addition, our ability to repurchase any of the CIC Senior Notes for cash may be limited by law or the terms of other agreements relating to our indebtedness outstanding at the time, including, but not limited to, the terms governing other CIC Senior Notes. In addition, if a fundamental change under the terms of our 1.375% Convertible Notes occurs prior to their stated maturity date, which may occur due to a transaction or other event that also constitutes a Change of Control Triggering Event, we may be required by the holders of such notes to purchase all or any part of such holders’ notes at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase. The failure to make such repurchase of any of the CIC Senior Notes or the 1.375% Convertible Notes would result in a default under the applicable notes.

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of any holder of CIC Senior Notes to require us to repurchase such holder’s CIC Senior Notes as a result of a sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person may be uncertain. In such case, the holders of the CIC Senior Notes may not be able to resolve this uncertainty without legal action.

We will comply in all material respects with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the CIC Senior Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. If the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the CIC Senior Notes, we will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the CIC Senior Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the CIC Senior Notes, the following terms apply:

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

20

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction (or series of related transactions) will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control under clauses (1) or (2) above if we become a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (a) the direct or indirect holders of a majority of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of a majority of our Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (b) the shares of our Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction are converted into or exchanged for a majority of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately after giving effect to such transaction.

“Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Rating Event.

“Continuing Director” means, as of any date of determination, any member of our Board of Directors who (1) was a member of our Board of Directors on the date the CIC Senior Notes were issued, (2) was nominated for election to our Board of Directors with the approval of a committee of the Board of Directors consisting of a majority of independent Continuing Directors or (3) was nominated for election, elected or appointed to our Board of Directors with the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of our Board of Directors at the time of such nomination, election or appointment (either by a specific vote or by approval of a proxy statement in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a director, without objection by such member to such nomination).

“Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than “Baa3” (or the equivalent) by Moody’s and “BBB-” (or the equivalent) by S&P, or, if applicable, the equivalent investment grade credit rating by any Substitute Rating Agency or Substitute Rating Agencies.

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., or any successor thereto.

“Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s and S&P and (2) if any of Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the CIC Senior Notes or fails to make a rating of the CIC Senior Notes publicly available for reasons outside of our control, a Substitute Rating Agency in lieu thereof.

“Rating Event” means the rating on the CIC Senior Notes is lowered independently by each of the Rating Agencies and the CIC Senior Notes are rated below an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies, in each case on any day during the period (which period will be extended so long as either of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that, as a result of the Change of Control, the rating of the CIC Senior Notes is under consideration for a possible downgrade) commencing 60 days prior to the first public announcement of the occurrence of a Change of Control or of our intention to effect a Change of Control and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of Control.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., or any successor thereto.

21

“Substitute Rating Agency” means a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Rule 15c3-1(c)(2)(vi)(F) under the Exchange Act selected by us (as certified by a resolution of our Board of Directors) as a replacement agency for Moody’s or S&P, or both of them, as the case may be.

“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) as of any date, the capital stock of that person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the Board of Directors of that person.

Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets

In addition to the restrictions applicable to the CIC Senior Notes and the 1.375% Convertible Notes, as described above under “Description of Debt Securities — Change in Control Trigger Event for Certain Senior Notes,” each indenture provides that neither we nor any of the Guarantors will, in any transaction or series of related transactions, consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise convey all or substantially all its properties and assets to any other Person unless:

Upon any consolidation by us or any Guarantor with, or any merger of us or any Guarantor into, any other Person or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of ours or any Guarantor to any Person in accordance with the provisions of any indenture described above, the successor Person formed by the consolidation or into which we are or such Guarantor, as the case may be, is merged or to which the sale, lease, assignment, transfer or other conveyance is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, us or (except in the case of a merger of such Guarantor into, or a sale, lease, assignment, transfer or other conveyance of all or substantially all such Guarantor’s properties and assets to, us) such Guarantor, as the case may be, and may exercise every right and power of ours or (except in the case of a merger of such Guarantor into, or a sale, lease, assignment, transfer or other conveyance of all or substantially all such Guarantor’s properties and assets to, us) such Guarantor, as the case may be, under such indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as us or such Guarantor, as applicable, therein; and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Person shall be released from all obligations and covenants under such indenture and, in the case of a transaction involving us, the debt securities issued under such indenture or, in the case of a transaction involving a Guarantor, its Guarantee of such debt securities.

22

Events of Default

An “Event of Default” with respect to the debt securities of any series issued under any indenture is defined as being:

No Event of Default with respect to a series of debt securities necessarily constitutes an Event of Default with respect to any other series of debt securities. Each indenture requires the trustee, within 90 days after the occurrence of a default with respect to the debt securities of any series outstanding under that indenture, to mail notice of such default, if known to the trustee, to all holders of debt securities of that series unless the default has been cured or waived. However, each indenture provides that the trustee may withhold notice to the holders of the debt securities of any series of the occurrence of a default with respect to the debt securities of such series (except a default in payment of principal or any premium or interest) if the trustee in good faith determines it is in the interest of the holders to do so. As used in this paragraph, the term “default” means any event or condition that is, or with notice or lapse of time or both would be, an Event of Default.

If an Event of Default with respect to the debt securities of any series occurs and is continuing, either the applicable trustee or the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt

23

securities of that series may declare the principal of all the debt securities of that series, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to be due and payable immediately. At any time after the debt securities of any series have been accelerated, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration has been obtained, the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding debt securities of that series may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration.

Each indenture provides that, subject to the duty of the trustee thereunder during a default to act with the required standard of care, such trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under such indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of debt securities of any series issued under that indenture unless such holders shall have offered to the trustee reasonable security or indemnity. Subject to the foregoing, the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series will have the right, subject to certain limitations, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee under the applicable indenture with respect to the debt securities of that series.

No holder of any debt securities of any series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the indenture under which such debt securities were issued or for any remedy thereunder unless:

Notwithstanding the provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraph or any other provision of the indentures, the holder of any debt security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any premium or interest on such debt security on the respective dates such payments are due, and to receive any payments required to be made by any Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee when due, and, in the case of any debt security that is convertible into or exchangeable for other securities or property, to convert or exchange such debt security in accordance with its terms, and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or any such right to convert or exchange, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such holder.

We are required to furnish to the trustee annually a statement as to any default in the performance of our obligations under the applicable indenture. Each of the Guarantors also is required to furnish to the trustee annually a statement as to any default in the performance of its obligations under the applicable indenture.

Discharge, Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

Each indenture provides that, upon our direction, such indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of debt securities issued thereunder specified by us (subject to the survival of certain provisions thereof) when:

24

Subject to meeting the conditions described below, we may elect with respect to any series of debt securities either:

in either case upon the irrevocable deposit with the applicable trustee (or other qualifying trustee), in trust for such purpose, of money, or Government Obligations that through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in accordance with their terms will provide money, in an amount sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of public accountants, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on such debt securities, and any mandatory sinking fund or analogous payments thereon, on the scheduled due dates therefor or the applicable redemption date, as the case may be. Upon any defeasance (but not covenant defeasance) of the debt securities of any series, the Guarantors will be released from their Guarantees of the debt securities of that series.

Such defeasance or covenant defeasance with respect to the debt securities of any series shall be effective if, among other things,

It shall also be a condition to the effectiveness of such defeasance or covenant defeasance that no Event of Default or event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default with respect to the debt securities of such series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of deposit of cash or Government Obligations into trust and, solely in the case of defeasance, no Event of Default described in clause (6) of the first

25

paragraph under “— Events of Default” above shall have occurred and be continuing at any time during the period ending on and including the 91^st day after the date of such deposit into trust.

If we effect covenant defeasance with respect to the debt securities of any series, then any failure by us to comply with any covenant as to which there has been covenant defeasance will not constitute an Event of Default with respect to the debt securities of such series. However, if the debt securities of such series are declared due and payable because of the occurrence of any other Event of Default, the amount of monies and/or Government Obligations deposited with the trustee to effect such covenant defeasance may not be sufficient to pay amounts due on such debt securities at the time of any acceleration resulting from such Event of Default. However, we and the Guarantors would remain liable to make payment of such amounts due at the time of acceleration.

Modification, Waivers and Meetings

Each indenture contains provisions permitting us, the Guarantors and the applicable trustee, with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each series issued under such indenture that is affected by the modification or amendment, to modify, amend or eliminate any of the provisions of such indenture (including the Guarantees of the debt securities of such series) or of the debt securities of such series or the rights of the holders of the debt securities of such series under such indenture; provided that no such modification or amendment shall, among other things:

without in each such case obtaining the consent of each holder of each outstanding debt security issued under such indenture so affected.

In addition, we may not amend our senior subordinated indenture or our subordinated indenture to alter the subordination of any outstanding debt securities issued under that indenture or any Guarantees of any such debt securities without first obtaining the written consent of each holder of Senior Indebtedness then outstanding that would be adversely affected by the amendment.

Each indenture also contains provisions permitting us, the Guarantors and the applicable trustee, without notice to or the consent of the holders of any debt securities issued thereunder, to modify or amend such indenture in order to, among other things:

26

Each indenture provides that the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may, on behalf of all holders of debt securities of that series, waive compliance by us and the Guarantors with certain covenants and other provisions of the indenture. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may, on behalf of all holders of debt securities of that series, waive any past default under the indenture with respect to debt securities of that series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any debt securities of such series; or in the case of any debt securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or other securities or property, a default in any such conversion or exchange; or in respect of a covenant or provision that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security of such series affected.

Each indenture contains provisions for convening meetings of the holders of debt securities of a series issued thereunder. A meeting may be called at any time by the trustee and also, upon request, by us or the holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of such series, in any such case upon notice given in accordance with the provisions of the indenture. Except for any consent that must be given by the holder of each outstanding debt security affected thereby, any resolution presented at a meeting or adjourned meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum (as described below) is present may be adopted by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series; provided, however, that any resolution with respect to any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action that may be made, given or taken by the holders of a specified percentage, other than a majority, in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of a series may be adopted at a meeting or adjourned meeting duly reconvened at which a quorum is present by the affirmative vote of the holders of such specified percentage in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series. Any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of holders of debt securities of any series duly held in accordance with the indenture will be binding on all holders of debt securities of that series. The quorum at any meeting called to adopt a resolution, and at any reconvened meeting, will be Persons holding or representing a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of a series, subject to certain exceptions.

In determining whether the holders of the requisite principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under an indenture or are present at a meeting of holders of debt securities for quorum purposes, any debt security of that series owned by us or any Guarantor or any other obligor on such debt securities or the Guarantees of such debt securities or any Affiliate of ours, any Guarantor or such other obligor shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

Applicable Law

The indentures, the Guarantees and the debt securities will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

If a successor Person replaces any of the Guarantors named in clause (1) of the preceding sentence in accordance with the provisions of the applicable indenture, the term “Guarantor” shall, for purposes of such indenture, thereafter include such successor instead of the Guarantor originally named in such clause (1).

“Non-Recourse Indebtedness” means Indebtedness secured by a Security Interest in or on property to the extent that the liability for such Indebtedness (and any premium, if any, and interest thereon) is limited to the security of such property without liability on our part or on the part of any of our Subsidiaries for any deficiency, including liability by reason of any agreement by us or any of our Subsidiaries to provide additional capital or maintain the financial condition of or otherwise support the credit of the Person incurring such Indebtedness, but provided that obligations or liabilities of ours or our Subsidiaries solely for indemnities, covenants or breaches of warranties, representations or covenants in respect of any Indebtedness will not prevent such Indebtedness from being classified as Non-Recourse Indebtedness.

“Person” means any individual, Corporation, joint venture, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated organization or government or any agency or political subdivision thereof. As used in the immediately preceding sentence, the term “Corporation” means corporations, partnerships, associations, limited liability companies and other companies, and business trusts.

30

case if such sale or transfer is made with the agreement, commitment or intention of leasing such property to us or a Restricted Subsidiary.

“Secured Debt” means any Indebtedness which is secured by (i) a Security Interest in or on any of our property or any property of any Restricted Subsidiary or (ii) a Security Interest in or on shares of stock owned directly or indirectly by us or a Restricted Subsidiary in a corporation or in or on equity interests owned by us or a Restricted Subsidiary in a partnership or other entity not organized as a corporation or in or on our rights or the rights of a Restricted Subsidiary in respect of Indebtedness of a corporation, partnership or other entity in which we or a Restricted Subsidiary has an equity interest; provided that “Secured Debt” shall not include Non-Recourse Indebtedness that is secured exclusively by “land under development,” “land held for future development,” or “improved lots and parcels,” as such categories of assets are determined in accordance with GAAP.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

We are authorized to issue 290,000,000 shares of common stock, with 85,548,203 shares of our common stock outstanding on May 31, 2017. Our grantor stock ownership trust held an additional 9,153,296 shares of our common stock on that date, and 21,844,825 shares of our common stock were held in treasury. We are also authorized to issue (i) 25,000,000 shares of special common stock, none of which is outstanding, and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, none of which is outstanding. However, we have reserved 2,900,000 shares of our Series A Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock, which we sometimes refer to as the “rights preferred stock,” for issuance under our stockholder rights plan as described below. At May 31, 2017, our common stock was held by 580 holders of record.

The following summarizes certain provisions of our restated certificate of incorporation and stockholder rights plan. These summaries are not complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, our restated certificate of incorporation and stockholder rights plan. We have filed copies of these documents with the SEC and have incorporated them by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. You should read these documents, which may be obtained as described above under “Where You Can Find More Information.”

Common Stock and Special Common Stock

Voting. Our common stock and special common stock generally have identical rights, except holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share while holders of our special common stock are entitled to one-tenth of a vote per share on all matters to be voted on by stockholders and except that holders of our special common stock have the conversion rights described below. Holders of common stock and special common stock are not entitled to cumulate their votes in the election of directors. Generally all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding shares of common stock and special common stock, voting together as a single class, subject to any voting rights of holders of any outstanding preferred stock. Any amendments to our restated certificate of incorporation generally must be approved by a majority of the combined voting power of all shares of common stock and special common stock, voting together as a single class. However, an amendment that adversely affects the rights of the common stock or special common stock must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of the affected class, voting as a separate class, in addition to the approval of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the common stock and special common stock voting together as a single class.

Preemptive Rights; Conversion. Our common stock and special common stock have no preemptive rights, and neither provides for redemption. Our common stock is not convertible into any other securities. If we make a tender or exchange offer for shares of our common stock or if another person makes a tender offer for our common stock, each share of special common stock will be convertible at the option of the holder into one share of common stock solely to enable those shares of common stock to be tendered pursuant to that offer. Each share of special common stock converted into common stock and not purchased pursuant to that offer will be automatically reconverted into one share of special common stock. All our outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable and shares of our special common stock, if issued, will be fully paid and nonassessable.

Dividends. Subject to any prior dividend rights of our outstanding preferred stock, if any, holders of our common stock and special common stock may receive dividends and distributions from funds legally available for dividends in the discretion of our board of directors. Holders of common stock and special common stock will share equally in all dividends and distributions on a per share basis. If we pay dividends or other distributions in capital stock other than preferred stock (including stock splits), only shares of common stock will be distributed with respect to common stock and only shares of special common stock will be distributed with respect to special common stock, in each case in an amount per share equal to the amount per share distributed with respect to the common stock or the special common stock, as the case may be. If we combine or reclassify our common stock or special common stock, the shares of each such class will be combined or reclassified so as to retain the proportionate interest of each class after giving effect to the combination or reclassification.

Distributions on Liquidation. The common stock and special common stock are entitled to share pro rata in any distribution upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment or provision for our liabilities and after giving effect to any liquidation preference of any preferred stock.

Reorganization, Consolidation or Merger. If we reorganize, consolidate or merge, each holder of a share of common stock will receive the same kind and amount of property that a holder of a share of special common stock receives, and each holder of a share of special common stock will receive the same kind and amount of property receivable by a holder of common stock.

Preferred Stock

We are authorized to issue preferred stock in one or more series with the designations, rights, preferences and limitations determined by our board of directors, including the consideration to be received for the preferred stock, the number of shares comprising each series, dividend rates, redemption provisions, liquidation preferences, mandatory retirement provisions, conversion rights and voting rights, all without any stockholder approval.

If we issue preferred stock with voting rights, it could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us and could adversely affect the rights of holders of common stock and special common stock. Preferred stockholders typically are entitled to satisfaction in full of specified dividend and liquidation rights before any payment of dividends or distribution of assets on liquidation can be made to holders of common stock

32

or special common stock. Also, any voting rights granted to our preferred stock may dilute the voting rights of our common stock and special common stock. Under some circumstances, control of us could shift from the holders of common stock to the holders of preferred stock with voting rights. Certain fundamental matters requiring stockholder approval (such as mergers, sale of assets, and certain amendments to our restated certificate of incorporation) may require approval by the separate vote of the holders of preferred stock in addition to any required vote of the common stock and special common stock.

Stockholder Rights Plan

On January 22, 2009, we adopted a Rights Agreement between us and Computershare Inc. (as successor to Mellon Investor Services LLC), as rights agent, dated as of that date (“2009 Rights Agreement”), and we declared a dividend distribution of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of common stock that was payable to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 5, 2009. Subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the 2009 Rights Agreement, if these rights become exercisable, each right would initially represent the right to purchase from us 1/100th of a share of our Series A Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $85.00 (“Purchase Price”). If issued, each fractional share of preferred stock would generally give a stockholder approximately the same dividend, voting and liquidation rights as does one share of our common stock. However, prior to exercise, a right does not give its holder any rights as a stockholder, including without limitation any dividend, voting or liquidation rights. The rights will not be exercisable until the earlier of (i) 10 calendar days after a public announcement by us that a person or group has become an Acquiring Person (as defined under the 2009 Rights Agreement) and (ii) 10 business days after the commencement of a tender or exchange offer by a person or group if upon consummation of the offer the person or group would beneficially own 4.9% or more of our outstanding common stock.

Until these rights become exercisable (“Distribution Date”), common stock certificates and/or book-entry shares will evidence the rights and may contain a notation to that effect. Any transfer of shares of our common stock prior to the Distribution Date will constitute a transfer of the associated rights. After the Distribution Date, the rights may be transferred other than in connection with the transfer of the underlying shares of our common stock. If there is an Acquiring Person on the Distribution Date or a person or group becomes an Acquiring Person after the Distribution Date, each holder of a right, other than rights that are or were beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person, which will be void, will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise of a right and payment of the Purchase Price, that number of shares of our common stock having a market value of two times the Purchase Price. After the later of the Distribution Date and the time we publicly announce that an Acquiring Person has become such, our board of directors may exchange the rights, other than rights that are or were beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person, which will be void, in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one share of common stock per right, subject to adjustment.

At any time prior to the later of the Distribution Date and the time we publicly announce that an Acquiring Person becomes such, our board of directors may redeem all of the then-outstanding rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.001 per right, subject to adjustment (“Redemption Price”). The redemption will be effective immediately upon the board of directors’ action, unless the action provides that such redemption will be effective at a subsequent time or upon the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more specified events, in which case the redemption will be effective in accordance with the provisions of the action. Immediately upon the effectiveness of the redemption of the rights, the right to exercise the rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of rights will be to receive the Redemption Price, with interest thereon. The rights issued pursuant to the 2009 Rights Agreement will expire on the earliest of (a) the close of business on March 5, 2019, (b) the time at which the rights are redeemed, (c) the time at which the rights are exchanged, (d) the time at which our board of directors determines that Article Ninth in our restated certificate of incorporation is no longer necessary, and (e) the close of business on the first day of a taxable year of ours to which our board of directors determines that no tax benefits may be carried forward. At our annual meeting of stockholders on April 2, 2009, our stockholders approved the 2009 Rights Agreement.

Article Ninth of Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation

Article Ninth of our restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions designed to restrict direct and indirect transfers of our common stock if such transfers will affect the percentage of stock owned by any

33

stockholder or relevant group of stockholders who are deemed to own at least 5% or more of our common stock under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, including transfers where the effect would be to increase the direct or indirect ownership of our common stock by any person or relevant group from less than 5% to 5% or more, and transfers where the effect would be to increase the percentage of our common stock owned directly or indirectly by a person or relevant group owning or deemed to own 5% or more of our common stock. Subject to certain conditions, Article Ninth also prohibits any person or relevant group deemed to own 5% or more of our common stock from disposing of any shares of our common stock without the express consent of our board of directors. Any direct or indirect transfer of our common stock attempted in violation of the provisions of Article Ninth is deemed void as of the date of the prohibited transfer as to the purported transferee (or, in the case of an indirect transfer, the ownership of the direct owner of our common stock would terminate simultaneously with the attempted transfer), and the purported transferee (or, in the case of an indirect transfer, the direct owner) would not be recognized as the owner of the subject shares for any purpose, including for purposes of voting and receiving dividends or other distributions in respect of such shares of our common stock, or, in the case of options, receiving the underlying common stock in respect of the exercise of such options. In addition to a prohibited transfer being void as of the date it is attempted, upon demand, the purported transferee must transfer the subject common stock to our agent along with any dividends or other distributions paid with respect to such common stock. Our agent is required to sell such common stock in an arms’ length transaction (or series of transactions) that do not constitute a violation of Article Ninth. The net proceeds of any such sale, together with any other distributions with respect to the subject common stock received by our agent, after deduction of the agent’s costs, will be distributed first to the purported transferee in an amount, if any, up to the cost incurred by the purported transferee to acquire the subject common stock, and the balance of the proceeds, if any, will be distributed to a charitable beneficiary. If the subject common stock is sold by the purported transferee, such person will be treated as having sold such common stock on behalf of our agent and will be required to remit all proceeds to our agent, except to the extent we grant written permission to the purported transferee to retain an amount not to exceed the amount such person otherwise would have been entitled to retain had our agent sold such common stock.

Additional Provisions of Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation

We have adopted certain defensive measures, including restricting stockholders’ ability to call special meetings of stockholders, implementing our stockholder rights plan and amending our restated certificate of incorporation to provide that Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law shall apply to us. In addition, our restated certificate of incorporation prohibits stockholder action by written consent.

These defensive measures could require a potential acquiror of us to pay a higher price than might otherwise be the case or to obtain the approval of a larger percentage of our stockholders than might otherwise be the case. These measures may also discourage a proxy contest or make it more difficult to complete a merger involving us, or a tender offer, open-market purchase program or other purchase of our shares, in circumstances that would give our stockholders the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market prices for their shares.

Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law

As a Delaware corporation, we are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Under Section 203, if a person or group acquires 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock (thereby becoming an “interested stockholder”) without prior board of directors approval, the interested stockholder may not, for a period of three years, engage in a wide range of business combination transactions with the corporation. However, this restriction does not apply to a person who becomes an interested stockholder in a transaction resulting in the interested stockholder owning at least 85% of the corporation’s voting stock (excluding from the outstanding voting stock, shares held by persons who are directors and also officers and shares held pursuant to employee stock plans without confidential tender offer decisions), or to a business combination approved by our board of directors and authorized by the affirmative vote of a least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder. In addition, Section 203 does not apply to certain business

combinations proposed subsequent to the public announcement of specified business combination transactions which are not opposed by our board of directors.

Transfer Agent

As of the date of this prospectus, the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Computershare Inc.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

We may issue warrants for the purchase of debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares or common stock. Warrants may be issued independently or together with our debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares or common stock, and may be attached to or separate from any offered securities. Each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered into between us and a bank or trust company, as warrant agent. The warrant agent will act solely as our agent in connection with the warrants and will not have any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any holders or beneficial owners of warrants. A copy of the warrant agreement will be filed with the SEC in connection with any offering of warrants.

A supplemental prospectus relating to a particular issue of warrants to purchase debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares or common stock will describe the terms of those warrants, including the following:

35

DESCRIPTION OF DEPOSITARY SHARES

We may, at our option, elect to offer depositary shares, each of which will represent a fractional interest in a share of a particular series of preferred stock as specified in a supplemental prospectus. We may offer depositary shares rather than offering fractional shares of preferred stock of any series. Subject to the terms of the applicable deposit agreement, each owner of a depositary share will be entitled, in proportion to the applicable fractional interest in shares of preferred stock underlying that depositary share, to all rights and preferences of the preferred stock underlying that depositary share. Those rights may include dividend, voting, redemption and liquidation rights.

The shares of preferred stock underlying the depositary shares will be deposited with a depositary under a deposit agreement between us, the depositary and the holders of the depositary receipts evidencing the depositary shares. The depositary will be a bank or trust company selected by us. The depositary will also act as the transfer agent, registrar and, if applicable, dividend disbursing agent for the depositary shares. We anticipate that we will enter into a separate deposit agreement for the depositary shares representing fractional interests in preferred stock of each series.

Holders of depositary receipts will be deemed to agree to be bound by the deposit agreement, which requires holders to take certain actions such as filing proof of residence and paying certain charges.

The following is a summary of selected terms of the depositary shares and the related depositary receipts and deposit agreement. The deposit agreement, the depositary receipts, our restated certificate of incorporation and the certificate of designation for the applicable series of preferred stock that have been, or will be, filed with the SEC will set forth all of the terms relating to each issue of depositary shares. To the extent that any particular terms of any depositary shares or the related depositary receipts or deposit agreement described in a supplemental prospectus differ from any of the terms described below, then the terms described below will be deemed to have been superseded by the applicable terms described in that supplemental prospectus. The following summary of selected provisions of the depositary shares and the related depositary receipts and deposit agreement is not complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, all the provisions of the applicable depositary receipts and deposit agreement, including terms defined in those documents.

Immediately following our issuance of shares of a series of preferred stock that will be offered as depositary shares, we will deposit the shares of preferred stock with the applicable depositary, which will then issue and deliver the depositary receipts. Depositary receipts will only be issued evidencing whole depositary shares. A depositary receipt may evidence any number of whole depositary shares.

Dividends

The depositary will distribute all cash dividends or other cash distributions received relating to the series of preferred stock underlying the depositary shares to the record holders of depositary receipts in proportion to the number of depositary shares owned by those holders on the relevant record date. The record date for the depositary shares will be the same date as the record date for the preferred stock.

If there is a distribution other than in cash, the depositary will distribute property received by it to the record holders of depositary receipts that are entitled to receive the distribution. However, if the depositary determines that the distribution cannot be made proportionately among the holders or that it is not feasible to make the distribution, the depositary may, with our approval, adopt another method for the distribution. The method may include selling the securities or property and distributing the net proceeds to the holders.

The amount distributed in any of the foregoing cases will be reduced by any amounts required to be withheld by us or the depositary on account of taxes or other governmental charges.

Liquidation Preference

If we voluntarily or involuntarily liquidate, dissolve or wind up, the holders of each depositary share will be entitled to receive the fraction of the liquidation preference accorded each share of the applicable series of underlying preferred stock, as set forth in the applicable supplemental prospectus.

36

Redemption

If the series of preferred stock underlying the depositary shares is subject to redemption, the depositary shares will be redeemed from the proceeds received by the depositary from the redemption, in whole or in part, of such series of preferred stock held by the depositary. Whenever we redeem any preferred stock held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem, as of the same redemption date, the number of depositary shares representing the applicable series of preferred stock so redeemed. The depositary will mail the notice of redemption to the record holders of the depositary receipts promptly upon receiving the notice from us and not less than 35 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of the applicable series of preferred stock and the depositary shares. The redemption price per depositary share will be equal to the applicable fraction of the redemption price payable per share for the applicable series of preferred stock. If fewer than all the depositary shares are redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot or ratably as the depositary will decide.

After the date fixed for redemption, the depositary shares so called for redemption will no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of the holders of the depositary shares will cease, except the right to receive the moneys payable upon redemption and any moneys or other property to which the holders of the depositary shares were entitled upon the redemption, upon surrender to the depositary of the depositary receipts evidencing the depositary shares.

Voting

Upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of preferred stock are entitled to vote, the depositary will mail the information contained in the notice of meeting to the record holders of the depositary receipts representing the preferred stock. Each record holder of those depositary receipts on the record date will be entitled to instruct the depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of preferred stock underlying that holder’s depositary shares. The record date for the depositary shares will be the same date as the record date for the preferred stock. The depositary will try, as far as practicable, to vote the preferred stock underlying the depositary shares in a manner consistent with the instructions of the holders of the depositary receipts. We will agree to take all action which may be deemed necessary by the depositary in order to enable the depositary to do so. The depositary will not vote the preferred stock to the extent that it does not receive specific instructions from the holders of depositary receipts.

Withdrawal of Preferred Stock

Owners of depositary shares are entitled, upon surrender of depositary receipts at the applicable office of the depositary and payment of any unpaid amount due the depositary, to receive the number of whole shares of preferred stock underlying the depositary shares. Partial shares of preferred stock will not be issued. After the withdrawal of shares of preferred stock as described in the preceding sentence, the holders of those shares of preferred stock will not be entitled to deposit the shares under the deposit agreement or to receive depositary receipts evidencing depositary shares for those shares of preferred stock.

Amendment and Termination of Deposit Agreement

The form of depositary receipt evidencing the depositary shares and any provision of the applicable deposit agreement may be amended at any time and from time to time by agreement between us and the depositary. However, any amendment which materially and adversely alters the rights of the holders of depositary shares, other than any change in fees, will not be effective unless the amendment has been approved by at least a majority of the depositary shares then outstanding. The deposit agreement automatically terminates if:

37

Charges of Depositary

We will pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. We will also pay charges of the depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the underlying preferred stock and the initial issuance of the depositary shares and receipts, any redemption of the underlying preferred stock and all withdrawals of preferred stock by owners of depositary shares. Holders of depositary receipts will pay transfer, income and other taxes and governmental charges and certain other charges as provided in the deposit agreement. In certain circumstances, the depositary may refuse to transfer depositary shares, withhold dividends and distributions, and sell the depositary shares evidenced by the depositary receipt, if the charges are not paid.

Reports to Holders

The depositary will forward to the holders of depositary receipts all reports and communications we deliver to the depositary that we are required to furnish to holders of the underlying preferred stock. In addition, the depositary will make available for inspection by holders of depositary receipts at the applicable office of the depositary — and at other places as it thinks is advisable — any reports and communications we deliver to the depositary as holder of the underlying preferred stock.

Liability and Legal Proceedings

Neither we nor the depositary will be liable if either of us is prevented or delayed by law or any circumstance beyond our control in performing our obligations under the deposit agreement. Our obligations and those of the depositary will be limited to performance in good faith of our duties under the deposit agreement. Neither we nor the depositary will be obligated to prosecute or defend any legal proceeding in respect of any depositary shares or preferred stock unless satisfactory indemnity is furnished. We and the depositary may rely on written advice of counsel or accountants, on information provided by holders of depositary receipts or other persons believed in good faith to be competent to give such information and on documents believed to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper persons.

Resignation and Removal of Depositary

The depositary may resign at any time by delivering a notice to us of its election to do so. We may also remove the depositary at any time. Any such resignation or removal will take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment. The successor depositary must be appointed within 60 days after delivery of the notice for resignation or removal. In addition, the successor depositary must be a bank or trust company having its principal office in the United States and must have a combined capital and surplus of at least $150,000,000.

DESCRIPTION OF STOCK PURCHASE CONTRACTS AND STOCK PURCHASE UNITS

We may issue stock purchase contracts, including contracts obligating holders to purchase from us, and us to sell to the holders, a specified number of shares of common stock at a future date or dates, which we refer to herein as “stock purchase contracts.” The price per share of common stock and the number of shares of common stock may be fixed at the time the stock purchase contracts are issued or may be determined by reference to a specific formula set forth in the stock purchase contracts, and may be subject to adjustment under anti-dilution formulas. The stock purchase contracts may be issued separately or as part of units consisting of a stock purchase contract and debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares, debt obligations of third parties, including United States Treasury securities, any other securities described in the applicable supplemental prospectus, which may secure the holders’ obligations to purchase the common stock under the stock purchase contracts, which we refer to herein as “stock purchase units.” The stock purchase contracts may require holders to secure their obligations thereunder in a specified manner, and in some circumstances we may deliver newly issued prepaid common stock purchase contracts, which are referred to as “prepaid securities,” upon release to a holder of any collateral securing that holder’s obligations under the original purchase contract. The stock purchase contracts also may

38

require us to make periodic payments to the holders of the stock purchase contracts or stock purchase units, as the case may be, or vice versa, and those payments may be unsecured or prefunded on some basis.

The applicable supplemental prospectus will describe the terms of the stock purchase contracts or stock purchase units and, if applicable, prepaid securities. This description is not complete and the description in the applicable supplemental prospectus will not necessarily be complete, and reference is made to the stock purchase contracts, and, if applicable, collateral or depositary agreements, relating to the stock purchase contracts or stock purchase units. If any particular terms of the stock purchase contracts or stock purchase units described in an applicable supplemental prospectus differ from any of the terms described herein, then the terms described herein will be deemed to have been superseded by that supplemental prospectus.
