EXHIBIT A
Scope of Work
Contractor shall provide and perform the following services for the Company:

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services shall be considered attorney-client privileged with regard to Services rendered.
EXHIBIT B
Dispute Resolution Procedures
Mediation
(a) If a dispute arises within the scope of this Agreement that was not resolved through consultation with the Company, the parties shall first submit the dispute or controversy to non-binding mediation. The mediation shall be held before a qualified neutral mediator and the mediation shall take place in the metropolitan area of the division or office to which the Contractor was assigned at the time of the dispute. The parties shall jointly designate a mediator. If the parties cannot agree on a mediator within thirty (30) business days of the date of the written request for mediation, the mediation will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), and AAA will designate a qualified mediator.
(b) The Company and the Contractor are obligated to make a good faith effort to resolve the issue through mediation, and to participate in the mediation session to its conclusion. The parties are entitled to a full day mediation session under this Agreement; however, the parties may jointly agree to a half-day mediation session. Mediation sessions are to be conducted with as little formality and technicality as possible. The parties shall equally share the costs of mediation, unless the parties agree otherwise, and each party shall bear its/his/her own attorneys’ fees and costs in connection with the mediation of any disputes under this Agreement. To ensure that mediation is held in a non-prejudicial manner and to encourage candid discourse among the parties, all information disclosed in the course of mediation is to remain confidential.
Binding Arbitration
(c) If the dispute is not resolved through mediation, Contractor and the Company agree to resolve the dispute exclusively by binding arbitration under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) and this Agreement. Preliminary injunctive relief and other provisional remedies in aid of arbitration may be sought by either the Contractor or the Company in a court of competent jurisdiction under applicable law, but the arbitrator alone may award permanent injunctive relief. All proceedings shall be confidential as allowed by law.
(d) Contractor acknowledges and agrees that proceeding under this Agreement is the exclusive remedy for all disputes arising from or related to this Agreement. In addition, both Contractor and the Company agree to waive all rights to a civil court action regarding any disputes within the scope of this Agreement. This means that only the arbitrator, and not a judge or jury, will decide the dispute.
(e) Arbitrations under this Agreement will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., and resolved by a neutral arbitrator in a binding arbitration administered by the AAA under the AAA's Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures (the "Arbitration Rules"), in effect on November 1, 2009, including indigency determination procedures. The Arbitration Rules are available at http://www.adr.org. In the case of a conflict between the AAA Rules and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.
(f) The interpretation and enforcement of this dispute resolution agreement shall be governed exclusively by the Federal Arbitration Act. All statutes of limitation that would be applied if the applicable dispute was filed in court of competent jurisdiction shall apply to disputes under this Procedure.
(g) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, arbitration shall take place in Miami, Florida. Contractor will pay his portion of AAA's filing fee for disputes arising under the Arbitration Rules and bear his/her own attorney's fees and costs of preparing the case, unless the arbitrator awards such fees and costs. The arbitrator is empowered to award attorneys’ fees and costs to either party based on applicable law. The Company will pay the remaining part of the filing fee, AAA's administrative fees for such disputes, and the fees and expenses of the arbitrator and it will provide or pay for the hearing facilities. Contractor acknowledges that the Company’s payment of such fees shall in no way affect the neutrality of the arbitrator, and will stipulate to same prior to the commencement of the arbitration.
(h) In rendering an award, the arbitrator shall determine the rights and obligations of the parties according to applicable law and the arbitrator's decision shall also be governed by applicable law, as though the matter were before a court of law.
(i) Contractor understands that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the AAA Arbitration Rules, and in consideration for the relaxed standards of evidence and speed of arbitration proceedings, Contractor and the Company agree to arbitrate any claims individually and further agree there shall be no class actions, collective actions, multi-plaintiff arbitrations, or class arbitrations of any claims within the scope of this Agreement. The arbitrator shall not have power to treat any claim as a class, collective, multi-plaintiff, or consolidated claim. This means that arbitration may only proceed on an individual basis.
(j) Contractor further understands that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the AAA Arbitration Rules, Contractor and the Company agree that formal discovery in any arbitration proceeding shall be limited to four (4) depositions per side; fifteen (15) interrogatories per side; and requests for production of documents/things shall be limited to thirty (30) document categories per side. Provided, however, that the arbitrator shall have the power to increase the number of depositions, document requests and interrogatories upon a showing of good cause and substantial need and that the requested discovery is not duplicative or cumulative and cannot be obtained by less-intrusive, less-burdensome, and less-expensive means. Documents and information that are equally available to each party, such as information available in the public domain, may not be requested through discovery.
(k) Contractor and the Company further agree that a party may serve on the opposing party an offer to settle, compromise and/or allow judgment on specified terms, in accordance with the requirements of any state or local law or rule providing for offers of settlement, compromise and/or judgment that exist in the geographic location of the arbitration proceeding. And any such offers shall be governed by applicable state or local law. If there is no applicable state or local law in effect concerning offers of settlement, compromise and/or judgment in the geographic location of the arbitration proceedings, the parties are entitled to make an offer of judgment in accordance with the requirements of Rule 68 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. If the opposing party serves timely written notice accepting the offer, either party may then file the offer and notice of acceptance, plus proof of service, with the arbitrator. The arbitrator must then enter a written arbitration award confirming judgment in accordance with the terms specified in the accepted offer. An unaccepted offer is considered withdrawn, but it does not preclude a later offer. The impact of an unsuccessful offer will be determined by the Arbitrator in accordance with applicable law.
(l) Either party may file dispositive motions of the kind allowed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and the arbitrator shall timely rule on such motions in accordance with applicable law.
(m) Any arbitration award shall be accompanied by a written statement containing a summary of the issues in controversy, a description of the award, and an explanation of the essential findings and conclusions. Such decision shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration. The decision of the arbitrator shall be made within thirty (30) days following the close of the hearing. Contractor and the Company agree the award shall be enforceable by any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction.
(n) If any part of this arbitration procedure is in conflict with any applicable law, the law shall govern, and that part of this arbitration procedure shall be reformed and construed to the maximum extent possible in conformance with the applicable law. The arbitration procedure shall remain otherwise unaffected and enforceable. This Agreement is not intended to interfere with or restrict protected concerted activities pursuant to the National Labor Relations Act, if in any way applicable to Contractor by virtue of Contractor’s prior employment, if applicable.

LENNAR ANNOUNCES THE RETIREMENT OF GENERAL COUNSEL MARK SUSTANA AND CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER FRED ROTHMAN

He will be succeeded by Katherine Lee Martin, who joins Lennar on September 2 as Chief Legal Officer. Ms. Martin most recently served as Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary at The Hertz Corporation.
Mr. Sustana has served as General Counsel of Lennar since 2005, providing legal oversight and strategic guidance throughout a period of tremendous growth and transformation. In 2018, he was named Vice President. During his tenure, Mr. Sustana played a pivotal role in supporting the company’s expansion, navigating complex legal and regulatory matters, and helping guide Lennar through both strong markets and challenging economic cycles. He will stay on to consult for the company to ensure a smooth transition.
“Mark has been a trusted leader and advisor, and a steady hand through the last 20 years of change and opportunity at Lennar,” said Stuart Miller, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer. “His integrity, wisdom, and dedication to our company have helped shape the foundation we stand on today. We thank him for his many years of service and wish him all the best in his well-deserved retirement.”
Katherine Lee Martin is a seasoned legal executive with more than two decades of experience in corporate law, compliance, and governance. Ms. Martin joined The Hertz Corporation in May 2023 as Vice President and Chief Counsel and took on the additional role of Chief Compliance Officer from January 2024 to June 2024. She was Interim General Counsel and Assistant Corporate Secretary from April 2024 to July 2024 and became Hertz’s Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary in July 2024. From August 2021 to April 2023, Ms. Martin held various leadership positions at X Corp. (formerly, Twitter, Inc.), a social media and technology company. Prior to that, Ms. Martin spent more than a decade as an Assistant U.S. Attorney at the U.S. Department of Justice. She served as a law clerk in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia following law school and earned her J.D. from the William & Mary Law School. Before law school, Ms. Martin worked as a staff member for the U.S. House of Representatives.
“We’re very pleased to welcome Katherine to Lennar,” added Mr. Miller. “Her experience across corporate law, litigation, technology, and regulatory issues, marked by a strong commitment to ethical standards and operational excellence, make her a great fit for our company. We look forward to having her as an integral part of the executive team.”
Lennar also announced today that Fred Rothman, Chief Operating Officer, is retiring after nearly 20 years with the company. Mr. Rothman’s retirement will be effective on September 2, 2025, but he will continue to work with the company as a consultant. Lennar does not plan to replace Mr. Rothman.
Mr. Rothman joined Lennar in 2006 and served as Eastern Regional President until his promotion to Chief Operating Officer in 2019. Additionally, Mr. Rothman has been involved with many charitable organizations and has led Lennar's initiative to house wounded veterans nationwide. In 2023, he was honored with the Lee Greenwood Patriot Award in recognition of those contributions. Mr. Rothman is also active in supporting the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
“Over the years, Fred has been an essential part of Lennar's evolution and growth and has helped guide our homebuilding operations with exceptional insight and focus,” said Mr. Miller. “His efforts have strengthened Lennar across every aspect of our business - from scaling our operations and enhancing efficiency to being instrumental in our shift to a land-light strategy and the successful spin-off of Millrose Properties. We appreciate the many contributions he’s made during his tenure at the company.”
