             (2)    We believe these non-GAAP
                     financial measures are relevant
                     and useful to investors in
                     understanding our operations, and
                     may be helpful in comparing us
                     with other companies in the
                     homebuilding industry to the
                     extent they provide similar
                     information. These non-GAAP
                     financial measures should be used
                     to supplement their respective
                     most directly comparable GAAP
                     financial measures in order to
                     provide a greater understanding of
                     the factors and trends affecting
                     our operations.
