SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements concern expectations, beliefs, projections, plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements typically include the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “consider,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “objective,” “plan,” “predict,” “projection,” “seek,” “strategy,” “target,” “will” or other words of similar meaning. Some of them are opinions formed based upon general observations, anecdotal evidence and industry experience, but that are not supported by specific investigation or analysis.

Table of Contents
These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. We wish to caution readers that certain important factors may have affected and could in the future affect our actual results and could cause actual results to differ significantly from what is anticipated by our forward-looking statements. The most important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: slowdowns in real estate markets in regions where we have significant Homebuilding or Multifamily development activities; decreased demand for our homes, either for sale or for rent, or Multifamily rental apartments; the potential impact of inflation; the impact of increased cost of mortgage financing for homebuyers, increased interest rates or increased competition in the mortgage industry; supply shortages and increased costs related to construction materials and labor; cost increases related to real estate taxes and insurance; the effect of increased interest rates with regard to our funds’ borrowings on the willingness of the funds to invest in new projects; reductions in the market value of the Company’s investments in public companies; natural disasters or catastrophic events for which our insurance may not provide adequate coverage; our inability to successfully execute our strategies, including our land lighter strategy and our planned spin-off of certain businesses; a decline in the value of the land and home inventories we maintain and resulting possible future writedowns of the carrying value of our real estate assets; the forfeiture of deposits related to land purchase options we decide not to exercise; the potential negative impact to our business of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic; possible unfavorable losses in legal proceedings; changes in general economic and financial conditions that reduce demand for our products and services, lower our profit margins or reduce our access to credit; our inability to acquire land at anticipated prices; the possibility that we will incur nonrecurring costs that affect earnings in one or more reporting periods; the possibility that the benefit from our increasing use of technology will not justify its cost; increased competition for home sales from other sellers of new and resale homes; becoming unable to pay down debt; government actions or other factors that might force us to terminate our program of repurchasing our stock; the failure of the participants in various joint ventures to honor their commitments; difficulty obtaining land-use entitlements or construction financing; new laws or regulatory changes that adversely affect the profitability of our businesses; our inability to refinance our debt on terms that are as favorable as our current arrangements; and changes in accounting conventions that adversely affect our reported earnings.
The list of risks above is not exhaustive. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all risks that might affect our business. Nothing in this prospectus is intended to give assurance regarding our future results or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated in this prospectus, which speaks only as of its date.
Please see our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022 and our other filings with the SEC for a further discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties which could affect our future results. We undertake no obligation, other than those imposed by securities laws, to publicly revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of those statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, we intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the securities offered by this prospectus for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of indebtedness, working capital, capital expenditures, acquiring and developing land and repaying or repurchasing existing debt. Pending use for these purposes, we may invest proceeds from the sale of the securities in short-term marketable securities. Unless the applicable prospectus supplement indicates otherwise, we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of securities by selling stockholders.
We may register securities covered by this prospectus to permit selling stockholders to resell their securities. We may register securities for resale by selling stockholders by filing a prospectus supplement with the SEC. The
3
Table of Contents
prospectus supplement would set forth information about the selling stockholders, including their names, the amounts of their securities that will be sold, their beneficial ownership of the securities and their relationship with us.
DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES
The following is a description of the general terms and provisions that may apply to debt securities we offer. The particular terms of any debt securities that are offered will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those debt securities, which may add, update or change the terms described in this prospectus. To review the terms of any debt securities offered by this prospectus, you must review both this prospectus and the relevant prospectus supplement.
We may issue debt securities under either (a) an indenture dated as of December 31, 1997, with The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “current indenture”), or (b) one or more other indentures with that or another trustee. We may supplement any of these indentures from time to time. The following paragraphs describe the provisions of the current indenture. We have filed the current indenture, as an exhibit to Registration Statement File No. 333-45527, at which time the trustee was J.P. Morgan Trust Company, N.A., the successor in interest to the original trustee, The First National Bank of Chicago. You can inspect that indenture as described under “Where You Can Find More Information”.
General
The debt securities will be direct obligations of our Company and may be either senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities. Some or all of the co-registrants under the registration statement which includes this prospectus (each of which is our direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary) may guaranty our payment of debt securities issued under this prospectus. In addition, the debt securities may be secured by the shares of some or all of our subsidiaries or by other assets. None of the indentures relating to our currently outstanding debt securities limits the principal amount of debt securities that we may issue. We may issue debt securities in one or more series. An indenture or a supplemental indenture will set forth specific terms of each series of debt securities. There will be prospectus supplements relating to particular issues or series of debt securities. Each prospectus supplement will describe:
| • | the title of the debt securities and whether the debt securities are senior or subordinated debt securities; |
| • | any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the issue or series of debt securities which we may issue; |
| • | the date or dates on which principal of the debt securities will be payable and the amount of principal which will be payable; |
| • | the rate or rates (which may be fixed or variable) at which the debt securities will bear interest, if any, or contingent interest, if any, as well as the dates from which interest will accrue, the dates on which interest will be payable, the persons to whom interest will be payable, if other than the registered holders on the record date, and the record date for the interest payable on any payment date; |
| • | the currency or currencies in which principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, will be paid; |
| • | whether our obligations with regard to the debt securities are guaranteed by some or all of our subsidiaries; |
| • | whether our obligations with regard to the debt securities are secured by shares of some or all of our subsidiaries or by other assets; |
| • | the place or places where principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the debt securities will be payable and where debt securities which are in registered form can be presented for registration of transfer or exchange; |
4
Table of Contents
| • | any provisions regarding our right to prepay debt securities or of holders to require us to prepay debt securities; |
| • | the right, if any, of holders of the debt securities to convert them into common stock or other securities, including any contingent conversion provisions; |
| • | any provisions requiring or permitting us to make payments to a sinking fund which will be used to redeem debt securities or a purchase fund which will be used to purchase debt securities; |
| • | any index or formula used to determine the required payments of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any; |
| • | the percentage of the principal amount of the debt securities which is payable if maturity of the debt securities is accelerated because of a default; |
| • | any special or modified events of default or covenants with respect to the debt securities; and |
| • | any other material terms of the debt securities. |
None of the indentures relating to Lennar Corporation’s currently outstanding debt securities contains any restrictions on the payment of dividends or the repurchase of our securities or any financial covenants. However, supplemental indentures relating to particular series of debt securities, or future indentures, may contain provisions of that type.
We may issue debt securities at a discount from, or at a premium to, their stated principal amount. A prospectus supplement may describe federal income tax considerations and other special considerations applicable to a debt security issued with original issue discount or at a premium.
If the principal of, premium, if any, or interest, if any, with regard to any series of debt securities is payable in a foreign currency, then in the prospectus supplement relating to those debt securities, we will describe any restrictions on currency conversions, tax considerations or other material restrictions with respect to that issue of debt securities.
Form of Debt Securities
We may issue debt securities in registered form without coupon, unless otherwise provided in a supplemental indenture relating to a particular issue or series of debt securities.
We may issue debt securities of an issue or a series in the form of one or more global certificates evidencing all or a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of that issue or series. We may deposit the global certificates with depositaries, and the global certificates may be subject to restrictions upon transfer or upon exchange for debt securities in individually certificated form.
Events of Default and Remedies
An event of default with respect to each issue or series of debt securities will include:
| • | our default in payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on debt securities of the issue or series beyond any applicable grace period; |
| • | our default for 30 days or a different period specified in a supplemental indenture, which may be no period, in payment of any installment of interest due with regard to debt securities of the issue or series; |
| • | our default for 60 days after notice or a different period specified in a supplemental indenture, which may be no period, in the observance or performance of any other covenants in the indenture; and |
| • | certain events involving our bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization. |
5
Table of Contents
Supplemental indentures relating to particular issues or series of debt securities may include other events of default.
The current indenture provides that the trustee may withhold notice to the holders of any issue or series of debt securities of any default (except a default in payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any) if the trustee considers it in the interest of the holders to do so.
The current indenture provides that if any event of default has occurred and is continuing, the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the issue or series of debt securities then outstanding may declare the principal of and accrued interest, if any, on all the debt securities of that issue or series to be due and payable immediately. However, if we cure all defaults (except the failure to pay principal, premium or interest which became due solely because of the acceleration) and certain other conditions are met, that declaration may be annulled and past defaults may be waived by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the issue or series of debt securities then outstanding.
The holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of an issue or series of debt securities will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting proceedings for any remedy available to the trustee, subject to certain limitations specified in the indenture.
A prospectus supplement will describe any additional or different events of default which apply to any issue or series of debt securities.
Modification of an Indenture
We and the trustee under an indenture may:
| • | without the consent of holders of debt securities, modify the indenture to cure errors or clarify ambiguities; |
| • | with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the debt securities which are outstanding under the indenture, modify the indenture or the rights of the holders of the debt securities generally; and |
| • | with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in outstanding principal amount of any issue or series of debt securities, modify any supplemental indenture relating solely to that series of debt securities or the rights of the holders of that issue or series of debt securities. |
However, we may not:
| • | extend the fixed maturity of any debt securities, reduce the rate or extend the time for payment of interest, if any, on any debt securities, reduce the principal amount of any debt securities or the premium, if any, on any debt securities, impair or affect the right of a holder to institute suit for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if any, with regard to any debt securities, change the currency in which any debt securities are payable or impair the right, if any, to convert any debt securities into common stock or any other of our securities, without the consent of each holder of debt securities who will be affected; or |
| • | reduce the percentage of holders of debt securities required to consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver, without the consent of the holders of all the then outstanding debt securities or outstanding debt securities of a series which will be affected. |
Mergers and Other Transactions
The current indenture provides that we may not consolidate with or merge into any other entity, or transfer or lease our properties and assets substantially as an entirety to another person, unless (1) the entity formed by
6
Table of Contents
the consolidation or into which we are merged, or which acquires or leases our properties and assets substantially as an entirety, assumes by a supplemental indenture all our obligations with regard to outstanding debt securities and our other covenants under the indenture, and (2) with regard to each issue or series of debt securities, immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no event of default, with respect to that series of debt securities, and no event which would become an event of default, will have occurred and be continuing.
Guarantees
Debt securities may be guaranteed by some or all of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Those guarantees may remain in effect for the life of the guaranteed debt securities, or may terminate on the occurrence of specified events or circumstances. The prospectus supplement describing an issue of debt securities that are guaranteed by some or all of our wholly-owned subsidiaries will identify the guarantor subsidiaries, either by name or by category, and will describe the terms of the guarantee, including any conditions to its effectiveness and any events or circumstances under which it will be suspended or terminate.
Concerning the Trustees
The Bank of New York Mellon, the trustee under our current indenture, or its affiliates, provide, and may continue to provide, loans and banking services to us in the ordinary course of their businesses.
Governing Law
Each of our indentures, each supplemental indenture, and the debt securities issued under them will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of New York State.
Each issue of warrants will be the subject of a warrant agreement which will contain the terms of the warrants. We will distribute a prospectus supplement with regard to each issue of warrants. Each prospectus supplement will describe, as to the warrants to which it relates:
| • | the securities which may be purchased by exercising the warrants (which may be Class A common stock, Class B common stock, preferred shares, participating preferred shares, debt securities, depositary shares or units consisting of two or more of those types of securities); |
| • | the exercise price of the warrants (which may be wholly or partly payable in cash or wholly or partly payable with other types of consideration); |
| • | the period during which the warrants may be exercised; |
| • | any provision adjusting the securities which may be purchased on exercise of the warrants and the exercise price of the warrants in order to prevent dilution or otherwise; |
| • | the place or places where warrants can be presented for exercise or for registration of transfer or exchange; and |
| • | any other material terms of the warrants. |
General
The following description summarizes the most important terms of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (“Certificate of Incorporation”), relating to the rights of holders of our capital stock.
7
Table of Contents
Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For a complete description of the matters set forth in this “Description of Capital Stock,” you should refer to our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws, as amended (“By-Laws”), which are included as exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and to the applicable provisions of Delaware law. At the date of this prospectus, we were authorized to issue up to 400,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, $0.10 par value, 90,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, $0.10 par value, 100,000,000 shares of participating preferred stock, $0.10 par value, and 500,000 shares of preferred stock, $10.00 par value. As of December 31, 2022, 253,539,060 shares of our Class A common stock, 36,161,355 shares of our Class B common stock and no shares of participating preferred stock or preferred stock were outstanding. Our Class A common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “LEN” and our Class B common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “LEN.B.”
Description of Common Stock
We have two classes of common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. The two classes are identical in every respect, except as to voting rights and, to a limited extent, in connection with distributions by us of our stock other than preferred stock.
Rights Relating to Dividends and Distributions
Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock and participating preferred stock that are outstanding at the time, the holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are entitled to share equally, on a per share basis, in any dividends or distributions that our Board of Directors may declare. Each dividend or distribution will be payable to the holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock without regard to class, except that in the case of dividends or distributions payable in our stock other than preferred stock, our Board of Directors may determine that the holders of Class A common stock will receive additional shares of Class A common stock, and the holders of Class B common stock will receive additional shares of Class B common stock.
Voting Rights
Each share of Class A common stock entitles the holder to one vote on each matter, and each share of Class B common stock entitles the holder to ten votes on each matter submitted to the vote of the common stockholders. With respect to matters on which stockholders are entitled to vote, holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock vote together as a single class; provided, however, that amendments to provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation relating to the Class A common stock or the Class B common stock require the approval of a majority of the shares of Class A common stock which are voted with regard to them, as well as approval of a majority in voting power of all the outstanding Class A common stock and Class B common stock combined. Also, under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), certain matters affecting the rights of holders of only Class A or Class B common stock may require approval of the holders of the Class A or Class B common stock voting as a separate class. The holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights.
As of November 30, 2022, Stuart Miller, our Executive Chairman, through family and personal holdings of Class B, and to a lesser extent Class A, common stock, has the power to cast approximately 36% of the votes that can be cast by the holders of all our outstanding Class A and Class B common stock combined. This gives Mr. Miller substantial influence regarding the election of our directors and the approval of most other matters that are presented to our stockholders. Mr. Miller’s voting power might discourage someone from making a significant equity investment in us, even if we needed the investment to meet our obligations or to operate our business. Also, because of his voting power, Mr. Miller may be able to cause our stockholders to approve actions that are contrary to many of our other stockholders’ desires.

Table of Contents
Liquidation Rights
We currently have no outstanding preferred stock or participating preferred stock. While that continues to be the case, if we are liquidated, the holders of our Class A and Class B common stock will be entitled to share equally on a per share basis, without regard to class, in the assets available for distribution after we have satisfied our debts and liabilities.
If we are liquidated at a time when there are outstanding shares of preferred stock, but not of participating preferred stock, the holders of our Class A and Class B common stock will be entitled to share equally on a per share basis, without regard to class, in the assets available for distribution after we have satisfied our debts and liabilities and made any distributions we are required to make with regard to the preferred stock.
If we are liquidated at a time when there are outstanding shares of participating preferred stock, the right of holders of Class A and Class B common stock to receive liquidating dividends will be limited as described under “Description of Participating Preferred Stock.”
Termination of Class Rights and Powers
If at any time (i) the number of outstanding shares of our Class B common stock is less than 10% of the number of outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock taken together, or (ii) the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock vote to cause all the Class B common stock to be converted into Class A common stock, the Class B common stock will automatically be converted into, and become for all purposes, shares of Class A common stock, and we will no longer be authorized to issue Class B common stock.
No Other Rights or Restrictions
Under our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws as they currently exist, our common stock is not subject to provisions relating to conversion, sinking funds, redemption, preemption rights, liability to further calls or to assessment, restrictions on alienability or discrimination against any existing or prospective holder as a result of that holder’s owning a substantial amount of our securities. However, our Board of Directors could, without vote of our stockholders, amend our By-Laws or take other action at any time, subject to limitations imposed by Delaware law, to create restrictions on who could own our common stock or that would discriminate against existing or prospective stockholders who own or propose to acquire more than specified percentages of our outstanding common stock.
Description of Preferred Stock
We may issue preferred stock in series with any rights and preferences which may be authorized by our Board of Directors. We will distribute a prospectus supplement with regard to each series of preferred stock. Each prospectus supplement will describe, as to the series of preferred stock to which it relates:
| • | the title of the series; |
| • | any limit upon the number of shares of the series which may be issued; |
| • | the preference, if any, to which holders of the series will be entitled upon our liquidation; |
| • | the date or dates on which we will be required or permitted to redeem shares of the series; |
| • | the terms, if any, on which we or holders of the series will have the option to cause shares of the series to be redeemed; |
| • | the voting rights of the holders of the series; |
| • | the dividends, if any, which will be payable with regard to the series (which may be fixed dividends or participating dividends and may be cumulative or non-cumulative); |
9
Table of Contents
| • | the right, if any, of holders of the series to convert them into another class or series of our stock or securities, including provisions intended to prevent dilution of those conversion rights; |
| • | any provisions by which we will be required or permitted to make payments to a sinking fund which will be used to redeem shares of the series or a purchase fund which will be used to purchase shares of the series; and |
| • | any other material terms of the series. |
Holders of shares of preferred stock will not have preemptive rights under our Certificate of Incorporation or under the DGCL, but the terms of particular series of preferred stock, or agreements into which we enter when we sell shares of preferred stock, may give rights that are similar to preemptive rights.
Description of Participating Preferred Stock
If we issue participating preferred stock, it will be identical with the Class A common stock in every way, except that (a) no cash dividends may be paid with regard to the Class A and Class B common stock in a calendar year until the holders of the participating preferred stock have received a total of $0.125 per share, then no cash dividends may be paid in that year with regard to the participating preferred stock until the holders of the Class A and Class B common stock have received dividends totaling $0.125 per share, and then any additional dividends in the year will be paid on an equal per share basis to the holders of the participating preferred stock and of the Class A and Class B common stock, (b) if we are liquidated, none of our assets may be distributed to the holders of the Class A and Class B common stock until the holders of the participating preferred stock have received distributions totaling $10 per share, then no assets may be distributed to the holders of the participating preferred stock until the holders of the Class A and Class B common stock have received distributions totaling $10 per share, and then any further liquidating distributions will be made on an equal per share basis to the holders of the participating preferred stock and of the Class A and Class B common stock, and (c) holders of participating preferred stock will vote separately on any proposed corporate actions which would change the participating preferred stock or would cause the holders of the participating preferred stock to receive per share consideration in a merger or similar transaction which is different from the per share consideration received by the holders of the Class A and Class B common stock.
Anti-Takeover Effects of our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws
Our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws have provisions that could have the effect of making it more difficult for somebody who wanted to take control of us to do so. They include:
Multi-Voting Stock. Holders of Class B common stock have substantial voting power because they have the ability to cast ten votes per share.
Advance Notice Requirements. A requirement that stockholders give advance notice of their intention to nominate candidates for election as directors or to bring other business before a meeting of stockholders.
Requirement for Calling of Special Meetings of Stockholders. Special meetings of our stockholders may be called by stockholders only upon the written request of the holders of at least a majority of all the outstanding shares of any class entitled to vote on the action proposed to be taken.
Undesignated Preferred Stock. Our Board of Directors is authorized to cause us to issue, without a stockholder vote, preferred stock, which could entitle holders to voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to acquire us.
Board Authority to Amend By-Laws. Our Board of Directors has the authority to adopt, amend or repeal our By-Laws without the approval of our stockholders.

Table of Contents
Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors and vacancies on our Board of Directors may be filled by a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum exists.
Exclusive Forum. The sole and exclusive forum for certain litigation brought on behalf of us or against us is the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, another court of the State of Delaware, or if no court of the State of Delaware has jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware).

We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, which, subject to limited exceptions, prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination with an entity controlled by a person who, together with the person’s affiliates and associates, acquires without the prior approval of the corporation’s board of directors more than 15%, but less than 85%, of the corporation’s voting securities (excluding for purposes of calculating the 85% shares owned by officers, directors or certain employee stock plans) until three years after the person, together with the person’s affiliates and associates, became the owner of more than 15% of the corporation’s voting securities, unless the business combination is approved by the affirmative vote of holders of more than 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the person who acquired more than 15% of the corporation’s voting securities or that person’s affiliates or associates.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for the Class A common stock and Class B common stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A. of Canton, Massachusetts.
DESCRIPTION OF DEPOSITARY SHARES
We may issue depositary receipts representing interests, which are called depository shares, in shares of our common stock of either class or of particular series of preferred stock. If we did so, we would deposit the common or preferred stock which is the subject of such depositary shares with a depositary, which would hold that common or preferred stock for the benefit of the holders of the depositary shares, in accordance with a deposit agreement between the depositary and us. The holders of depositary shares would be entitled to all the rights and preferences of the common or preferred stock to which the depositary shares relate, including dividend, voting, conversion, redemption and liquidation rights, to the extent of their interests in that common or preferred stock.
While the deposit agreement relating to a particular class or series of common or preferred stock may have provisions applicable solely to that class or series of stock, all deposit agreements relating to common or preferred stock we issue would include the following provisions:
Dividends and Other Distributions. Each time we pay a cash dividend or make any other type of cash distribution with regard to the common stock or to the preferred stock of a series, the depositary will distribute to the holder of record of each depositary share relating to that common stock or to that series of preferred stock an amount equal to the dividend or other distribution per depositary share the depositary receives. If there is a distribution of property other than cash, the depositary either will distribute the property to the holders of depositary shares in proportion to the depositary shares held by each of them, or the depositary will, if we approve, sell the property and distribute the net proceeds to the holders of the depositary shares in proportion to the depositary shares held by them.
Withdrawal of Preferred Stock. A holder of depositary shares will be entitled to receive, upon surrender of depositary receipts representing depositary shares, the number of shares of the applicable class of common stock or series of preferred stock, and any money or other property, to which the depositary shares relate.
11
Table of Contents
Redemption of Depositary Shares. Whenever we redeem shares of a series of preferred stock held by a depositary, the depositary will be required to redeem, on the same redemption date, depositary shares constituting, in total, the number of shares of that series held by the depositary which we redeem, subject to the depositary’s receiving the redemption price of those shares. If fewer than all the depositary shares relating to a series are to be redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot or by another method we determine to be equitable.
Voting. Any time we send a notice of meeting or other materials relating to a meeting to the holders of a class of common stock or a series of preferred stock to which depositary shares relate, we will provide the depositary with sufficient copies of those materials so they can be sent to all holders of record of the applicable depositary shares, and the depositary will send those materials to the holders of record of the depositary shares on the record date for the meeting. The depositary will solicit voting instructions from holders of depositary shares and will vote or not vote the common or preferred stock to which the depositary shares relate in accordance with those instructions.
Liquidating Distributions. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holder of each depositary share will be entitled to what the holder of the depositary share would have received if the holder had owned the number of shares of common stock or of the series of preferred stock which is represented by the depositary share.
Conversion. If shares of a series of preferred stock are convertible into common stock or other of our securities or property, holders of depositary shares relating to that series of preferred stock will, if they surrender depositary receipts representing depositary shares with appropriate instructions to convert them, receive the shares of common stock or other securities or property into which the number of shares of the series of preferred stock to which the depositary shares relate could at the time be converted.
Amendment and Termination of a Deposit Agreement. We and the depositary may amend a deposit agreement, except that an amendment which materially and adversely affects the rights of holders of depositary shares, or would be materially and adversely inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the class of common stock or series of preferred stock to which they relate, must be approved by holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding depositary shares. No amendment will impair the right of a holder of depositary shares to surrender the depositary receipts evidencing those depositary shares and receive the common or preferred stock to which they relate, except as required to comply with law. We may terminate a deposit agreement with the consent of holders of a majority of the depositary shares to which it relates. Upon termination of a deposit agreement, the depositary will make the shares of common or preferred stock to which the depositary shares issued under the deposit agreement relate available to the holders of those depositary shares. A deposit agreement will automatically terminate if:
| • | all outstanding depositary shares to which it relates have been withdrawn, redeemed or converted; or |
| • | the depositary has made a final distribution to the holders of the depositary shares issued under the deposit agreement upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. |
Miscellaneous. There will be provisions (i) requiring the depositary to forward to holders of record of depositary shares any reports or communications from us which the depositary receives with respect to the common or preferred stock to which the depositary shares relate, (ii) regarding compensation of the depositary, (iii) regarding resignation of the depositary, (iv) limiting our liability and the liability of the depositary under the deposit agreement (usually to failure to act in good faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct) and (v) indemnifying the depositary against certain possible liabilities.
We may issue securities in units, each consisting of two or more types of securities. For example, we might issue units consisting of a combination of debt securities and warrants to purchase common stock. If we issue
12
Table of Contents
units, the prospectus supplement relating to the units will contain the information described above with regard to each of the securities that is a component of the units. In addition, each prospectus supplement relating to units will:
| • | state how long, if at all, the securities that are components of the units must be traded in units, and when they can be traded separately; |
| • | state whether we will apply to have the units traded on a securities exchange or securities quotation system; and |
| • | describe how, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the purchase price paid for the units is to be allocated among the component securities. |
13
Table of Contents
We may sell the securities:
| • | to or through underwriters or dealers; |
| • | through agents; |
| • | directly to purchasers; or |
| • | through a combination of any such methods of sale. |
We will describe in a prospectus supplement the particular terms of the offering of the securities to which the prospectus supplement relates, including the following:
| • | the names of any underwriters or dealers; |
| • | the purchase price and the proceeds we will receive from the sale (which may be at a fixed price or prices, the market price prevailing at the time of sale, a price related to the prevailing market price or a negotiated price); |
| • | any underwriting discounts and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation; |
| • | any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; |
| • | any over-allotment options granted to the underwriters; and |
| • | any other information we think is important. |
If securities are sold in an underwritten offering, we will execute an underwriting agreement with an underwriter or underwriters. The underwriters will use this prospectus and the prospectus supplement to sell the securities. The underwriting agreement will provide that the obligations of the underwriters are subject to specified conditions precedent and that the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities if any are purchased. Underwriters may be involved in any at the market offering of securities by or on our behalf.
In connection with the sale of securities, underwriters may receive compensation from us in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions. They may also receive commissions from purchasers of securities for whom they may act as agent. Underwriters may sell securities to or through dealers. These dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters, and they may also receive commissions from purchasers for whom they may act as agent.
Offers to purchase securities may be solicited by agents designated by us from time to time. Any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered will be named, and any commissions payable by us to the agent will be set forth, in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, any agent will be acting on a reasonable best efforts basis for the period of its appointment. Any agent may be deemed to be an underwriter, as that term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, of the offered securities so offered and sold.
If we directly use a dealer in the sale of the securities, we will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell these securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale. The prospectus supplement will name the dealers and describe the terms of our arrangements with them. A dealer may sell some or all of the securities to other dealers. To the extent that we are aware of the terms under which securities may be sold by a dealer to another dealer, we will describe those terms in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Underwriters, dealers and agents participating in the distribution of securities may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act. Also any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit
14
Table of Contents
realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Underwriters, dealers and agents may be entitled under agreements with us to indemnification against and contribution toward certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to reimbursement by us for various expenses.
In order to facilitate an offering of our securities, any underwriters or agents, as the case may be, involved in the offering of such securities may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of such securities. Specifically, the underwriters or agents, as the case may be, may overallot in connection with the offering, creating a short position in the securities for their own account. In addition, to cover overallotments or to stabilize the price of such securities, the underwriters or agents, as the case may be, may bid for, and purchase, securities in the open market. Finally, in any offering of our securities through a syndicate of underwriters, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allotted to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing such securities in the offering if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed securities in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities above independent market levels. The underwriters or agents, as the case may be, are not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time.
We may offer and sell securities directly to institutional investors or others. These parties may be deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act with respect to their resales. The prospectus supplement applicable to transactions of that type will include the terms of the transactions.
As long as our Class A and Class B common stock is listed on the NYSE, any Class A or Class B common stock we sell pursuant to this prospectus will be listed on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance. Any other securities sold pursuant to this prospectus may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange or a foreign securities exchange. The securities may not have an established trading market. No assurances can be given that there will be a market for any of the securities.
Agents, underwriters and dealers may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us and our subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business.

| Item 15. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers |
As permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, our Certificate of Incorporation provides that we shall indemnify any person who is made a party or who is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the such person’s conduct was unlawful.
As also permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, our Certificate of Incorporation further provides that we shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper. Our Certificate of Incorporation does not include a provision permitting a person’s rights to indemnification to be eliminated after the occurrence of the act or omission giving rise to a claim in respect of which indemnification is sought, and therefore, under Section 145 of the DGCL, the right to indemnification may not be eliminated after the occurrence of the act or omission giving rise to a claim in respect of which indemnification is sought.
II-1
Table of Contents
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides, as permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, that the indemnification provided in our Certificate of Incorporation is not exclusive of other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. Our Certificate of Incorporation permits us to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of persons who are entitled to indemnification, and we maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for our directors and officers.
The states in which many of the guarantor registrants are incorporated permit or, under some circumstances, require indemnification of directors or officers. However, Lennar Corporation applies the provisions of its Certificate of Incorporation to indemnification of directors and officers of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including the guarantor registrants.

| Item 17. | Undertakings. |
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in this registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this registration statement or any material change to such information in this registration statement;
provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in subparagraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those subparagraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or
II-3
Table of Contents
prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the Registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned Registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned Registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned Registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned Registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned Registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned Registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned Registrant to the purchaser.
(6) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13 (a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(7) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under section 305(b)(2) of the Act.
(8) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
(i) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(ii) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(9) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

indentures described in clauses (i) and (ii) each being a “Base Indenture”) and supplemental indentures executed as contemplated by one or more of the Base Indentures by and between the Company and the trustee or trustees identified therein (the “Trustee”). The Warrants would be issued pursuant to one or more warrant agreements (each, a “Warrant Agreement”) which would be described in a prospectus supplement distributed by the Company in connection with the issuance of such Warrants. The Units would be described in a prospectus supplement distributed by the Company in connection with the issuance of such Units.
We have examined copies of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (as restated and/or amended, the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and the Bylaws of the Company, as amended, the Registration Statement, the Base Indentures, all relevant resolutions adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors, and other records and documents that we have deemed necessary for the purpose of this opinion. We have also examined and are familiar with originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such other documents, corporate records, papers, statutes and authorities as we have deemed necessary to form a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed.
As to questions of fact material to the opinion expressed below, we have relied without independent check or verification upon certificates and comparable documents of public officials and officers and representatives of the Company and statements of fact contained in the documents we have examined. In our examination and in rendering our opinion contained herein, we have assumed (i) the genuineness of all signatures of all parties; (ii) the authenticity of all corporate records, documents, agreements, instruments and certificates submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents and agreements of all documents and agreements submitted to us as conformed, certified or photostatic copies; and (iii) the capacity of natural persons.
We have assumed that, at or prior to the time of an issuance of any Security, (i) the Company shall be validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware; (ii) the Company shall have duly established the terms of such Security and duly authorized the issuance and sale of such Security and such authorization shall not have been modified or rescinded; (iii) each party to any document entered into in connection with the issuance or delivery of any such Security other than the Company shall have the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations in accordance with the documents to be executed by such parties, and we have also assumed that upon the execution and delivery by such parties of such documents that such documents shall constitute valid and binding obligations of such parties (other than the Guarantors); (iv) the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto shall be effective under the Act and comply with all applicable laws and such effectiveness shall not have been terminated or rescinded; (v) the appropriate prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus or term sheet relating to the Securities offered thereby shall be prepared and filed with the Commission in compliance with the Act and shall comply with applicable laws at the time the Securities are offered or issued; (vi) such Security shall be issued and sold in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Act and in compliance with the “blue sky” laws of certain states and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and any amendments and supplements thereto; (vii) there shall not have occurred any change in law affecting the validity or enforceability of such Security; (viii) at the time of an issuance of shares of Common Stock, including upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any of the Securities that provides for such conversion, exercise or exchange, as the case may be, there will be sufficient shares of Common Stock authorized under the Certificate of Incorporation, and not otherwise issued or reserved for issuance; (ix) at the time of an issuance of shares of Preferred Stock, Participating Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares, including upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any of the Securities that provides for such conversion, exercise or exchange, as the case may be, there will be sufficient shares of Preferred Stock or Participating Preferred Stock authorized under the Certificate of Incorporation and not otherwise issued or reserved for issuance; (x) any Securities issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Securities being offered or issued will be duly authorized, created and, if appropriate, reserved for issuance upon such conversion, exercise or exchange; and (xi) the Company shall have timely filed all necessary reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are incorporated into the Registration Statement by reference.
We have also assumed that none of the terms of any Security to be established subsequent to the date hereof, nor the issuance and delivery of such Security, nor the compliance by the Company with the terms of such Security nor the documents governing such Securities will violate any applicable law or will result in a violation of, or constitute a default or breach under, any provision of any instrument or agreement then binding upon the Company, any restriction imposed by any court or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company or any consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, any governmental authority.
