DESCRIPTION OF NOTES

The following description of the Notes supplements, and to the extent it is inconsistent with, replaces, the description of the general terms and provisions of the debt securities set forth in the accompanying prospectus. We will issue the Notes under an indenture dated as of December 31, 1997 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented and amended by a fourteenth supplemental indenture to be dated as of April 28, 2017 (the “Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) among us, the subsidiary guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon, as successor trustee (the “Trustee”). We have filed the Base Indenture with the SEC. The Indenture is subject to, and governed by, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”). You should read the Indenture for additional information before you purchase any Notes. You may request a copy of the Indenture at our address shown under the caption “Incorporation by Reference” in this prospectus supplement. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this section have the meanings specified in the Indenture. For purposes of this Description of Notes, “we,” “our” or “us” refers to Lennar Corporation and does not include our subsidiaries, except in references to financial data determined on a consolidated basis.

The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the Notes and the Indenture. We urge you to read the Indenture because that document, and not this description, will define each Holder’s rights as a Holder of the Notes.

General

The Notes will be our direct, unsecured obligations and will rank equal in right of payment by us with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding. The Notes will be issued in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of that amount and will be payable, and may be presented for registration of transfer and exchange, without service charge, at the Trustee’s office or agency in New York, New York.

The Notes are limited in aggregate principal amount to $650 million, but we may, without the consent of the Holders (as defined below), “reopen” the Notes and issue additional Notes at any time on the same terms and conditions and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes offered by this prospectus supplement. The Notes and any such additional Notes subsequently issued under the Indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the Indenture, including, without limitation, for purposes of waivers, amendments and redemptions.

The Notes will mature on April 30, 2024. Interest on the Notes will accrue at 4.500% per annum and will be payable semi-annually on April 30 and October 30 of each year, commencing October 30, 2017. Interest on the Notes will also be payable on their maturity date and on any redemption date. If any interest payment date, maturity date or redemption date is not a Business Day, then the interest payment will be postponed until the first following Business Day and no additional interest will accrue.

“Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday which is not a legal holiday in New York, New York.

We will pay interest to the persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on April 15 and October 15, as applicable, before the interest payment date; provided that the interest payable at the maturity date or on a redemption date will be paid to the person to whom principal is payable.

Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the date of issuance. There is no sinking fund applicable to the Notes.

In connection with the Notes, we have not agreed to any financial covenants or any restrictions on the payment of dividends or the issuance or repurchase of our securities. We also have not agreed to any covenants or other provisions to protect Holders of the Notes in the event of a highly leveraged transaction.

Redemption at Our Option

We may, at our option, redeem the Notes in whole or in part at any time and from time to time. If we redeem any of the Notes more than 90 days prior to their scheduled maturity date, the redemption price of those Notes will be equal to the greater of:

If we redeem Notes on or after the date that is 90 days prior to the scheduled maturity date of the Notes, the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes.

In any redemption, we will also pay accrued interest on the Notes being redeemed to the date of redemption. In determining the redemption price and accrued interest, interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

Any redemption will be on at least 30, but not more than 60, days’ prior notice.

If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the Notes to be redeemed is deposited with the Trustee on or before the redemption date, beginning on the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes (or the portion of them) called for redemption and those Notes will cease to be outstanding.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Reference Treasury Dealer 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.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (1) the average of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date, as set forth in the daily statistical release (or any successor release) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and designated “Composite 3:30 p.m. Quotations for U.S. Government Securities” or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published or does not contain such price on such Business Day, (A) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (B) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Quotation Agent” means any Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by us.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (A) each of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Mizuho Securities USA LLC, Goldman, Sachs & Co. and RBC Capital Markets, LLC and one primary U.S. government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) designated by Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (or its affiliate that is a Primary Treasury Dealer); provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, we will substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (B) any other Primary Treasury Dealer(s) selected by us.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the

S-15

Table of Contents

Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

“Remaining Payments” means, with respect to any Note that is redeemed, the remaining payments of interest and the payment of principal (or the portion of the principal) that would have been due with regard to that Note after the actual redemption date if the Note had been redeemed on the day that is 90 days before the scheduled maturity date of the Notes; provided, however, that, if such redemption date is not an interest payment date with respect to such Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment with respect to the Note will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued with respect to the Note to such redemption date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming 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 Guarantees

The guarantor Subsidiaries are all 100% owned by us. Each guarantor Subsidiary will, in the circumstances described below (but only in those circumstances), unconditionally guarantee, jointly and severally with the other Subsidiaries that are guaranteeing the Notes, all of our obligations under the Notes and the Indenture, including our obligations to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Notes. The guarantees will be general unsecured obligations of the guarantors and will rank pari passu with all existing and future unsecured indebtedness of the guarantors that is not, by its terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the guarantees or to other senior indebtedness of the guarantors. The obligations of each guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount which, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other guarantor under its guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under the Indenture, will result in the obligations of such guarantor under its guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under federal or state law. Each guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under a guarantee will be entitled to a contribution from each other guarantor in an amount pro rata, based on the net assets of each guarantor, determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. While any of our wholly-owned (i.e., directly or indirectly 100% owned) Subsidiaries is guaranteeing the Notes, its guarantee will be full and unconditional, and joint and several with the guarantees of all our other wholly-owned (i.e., directly or indirectly 100% owned) Subsidiaries that are guaranteeing the Notes, subject to limitations intended to prevent the guarantees from constituting fraudulent conveyances or fraudulent transfers under federal or state law.

The Indenture will require that, except as described below, each of our existing and future wholly-owned (i.e., directly or indirectly 100% owned) Subsidiaries (other than finance company Subsidiaries and foreign Subsidiaries) guarantee the Notes if that Subsidiary guarantees any of our (i.e., Lennar Corporation’s) Indebtedness or guarantees the obligations of any Subsidiary as a guarantor of our (i.e., Lennar Corporation’s) Indebtedness (each such Subsidiary, a “guarantor”). At the date of this prospectus supplement, all of our wholly-owned Subsidiaries (other than our Subsidiaries that (1) engage in the mortgage banking business, (2) own, finance, manage or service real estate assets (i.e., the subsidiaries in our Rialto segment), (3) engage in the development, investment and management of commercial or mixed use properties, (4) engage in the development, investment and management of multi-family rental properties, (5) engage in the installation, development, ownership, servicing, sale or lease of solar power systems or sale of solar power, (6) are prohibited from delivering a guarantee by law, rule, regulation or an agreement, or (7) individually have a net worth of less than $10 million and collectively have an aggregate net worth of not more than $75 million) guarantee our obligations under the Credit Agreement (see “Other Indebtedness”). Accordingly, all of the Subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under the Credit Agreement (except our finance company Subsidiaries and our foreign Subsidiaries) will guarantee the Notes when they are issued.

S-16

Table of Contents

The obligations of a guarantor will be automatically suspended, and that guarantor will not be a guarantor (but will remain a Restricted Subsidiary) and will not have any obligations with regard to the Notes, during any period when the principal amount of our (i.e., Lennar Corporation’s) obligations or of any Subsidiary’s obligations as a guarantor of our (i.e., Lennar Corporation’s) obligations, in each case other than the Notes and any other Indebtedness containing provisions similar to this, that the guarantor is guaranteeing totals less than $75 million. Additionally, if any guarantor is released from its guarantee (rather than a suspension of its guarantee) of the outstanding Indebtedness of us or the obligations of any Restricted Subsidiary as a guarantor of our Indebtedness, that guarantor will automatically be released from its obligations as a guarantor under the Indenture, and from and after the date of that release, that guarantor will cease to constitute a guarantor of the Notes and will not be a Restricted Subsidiary.

The Indenture will provide that if all or substantially all of the assets of any guarantor or all of the capital stock of any guarantor is sold (including by consolidation, merger, issuance or otherwise) or disposed of (including by liquidation, dissolution or otherwise) by us or any of our Subsidiaries (other than in each case to us or an affiliate of ours or any of our Subsidiaries), then that guarantor or the Person acquiring those assets (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the guarantor) will be deemed automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all of its obligations under the Indenture without any further action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes.

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 of that Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth in the 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 that are repurchased to 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, a notice will be sent 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 after the date that notice is sent, other than as may be required by law (a “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if sent 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 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 otherwise in compliance

S-17

Table of Contents

with the requirements for an offer made by us and the third party purchases all Notes properly tendered in response to its offer and not withdrawn.

To the extent that we are required to offer to repurchase the Notes upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, we will have a similar obligation with regard to the Existing Notes. We may not have sufficient funds to repurchase the Notes and the Existing Notes for cash at that time. In addition, our ability to repurchase the Notes or the Existing Notes for cash may be limited by law or the terms of other agreements relating to our indebtedness that is outstanding at the time. The failure to make a required repurchase of the Notes or the Existing Notes would result in a Default under the Notes.

We will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations under it 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, lease, 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) we consolidate with, or merge with or into, any person, or any person consolidates with, or merges with or into, us, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of our outstanding Voting Stock or the Voting Stock of such other person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the 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; (4) the first day on which a majority of the members of our board of directors are not Continuing Directors; or (5) the adoption 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 clause (2) above if, either:

S-18

Table of Contents

The term “person,” as used in this definition, has the meaning given to it in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.

The definition of “change of control” includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, lease, 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 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 Notes to require us to repurchase its Notes as a result of a sale, lease, 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 or group may be uncertain.

“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 Notes were initially issued or (2) 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 the nomination, election or appointment (either by a specific vote or by approval of our proxy statement in which that member was named as a nominee for election as a director, without objection to the nomination).

“Fitch” means Fitch Inc. and its successors.

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

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and its successors.

“Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch; and (2) if any of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons beyond our control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act that is selected by us (as certified by a resolution of our Board of Directors) as a replacement agency for Moody’s, S&P or Fitch, or all of them, as the case may be.

“Rating Event” means the rating on the Notes is lowered by at least two of the three Rating Agencies and the Notes are rated below an Investment Grade Rating by at least two of the three Rating Agencies (and, if there is a split among the three Rating Agencies, by the two Rating Agencies with the lowest rating), in any case on any day during the period (which period will be extended so long as the rating of the Notes is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies) commencing 90 days prior to the earlier of (i) the first public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control or (ii) the first public notice of our intention to effect a Change of Control, and ending 90 days following consummation of such Change of Control.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC business, and its successors.

“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.

Certain Covenants

Limitation on Liens. We will not, nor will we permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, assume, incur or suffer to exist any Lien upon any of our or its properties or assets, whether owned on the date of original issuance of the Notes (“Issue Date”) or thereafter acquired, unless:

The following Liens are “Permitted Liens”:

S-20

Table of Contents

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may, and any Restricted Subsidiary may, create, assume, incur or suffer to exist any Lien upon any of our properties or assets without equally and ratably securing the Notes if the aggregate amount of all Indebtedness then outstanding secured by such Lien and all other Liens which are not Permitted Liens, together with the aggregate net sales proceeds from all Sale-Leaseback Transactions which are not Permitted Sale Leaseback Transactions (as defined below), does not exceed 20% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

Sale and Leaseback Transactions. We will not, nor will we permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale-Leaseback Transaction, except for any of the following “Permitted Sale-Leaseback Transactions”:

S-21

Table of Contents

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, we may, and may permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, effect any Sale-Leaseback Transaction involving any real or tangible personal property which is not a Permitted Sale-Leaseback Transaction, provided that the aggregate net sales proceeds from all Sale-Leaseback Transactions which are not Permitted Sale-Leaseback Transactions, together with all Indebtedness secured by Liens which are not Permitted Liens, does not exceed 20% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

Mergers and Consolidations. We may not consolidate with or merge into, or sell or lease our assets substantially as an entirety to, a Person unless:

Compliance Certificate

We must deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officers’ Certificate as to the signer’s knowledge of our compliance with all conditions and our covenants in the Indenture. The Officers’ Certificate also must state whether or not the signer knows of any Default or Event of Default that occurred during the preceding fiscal year. If the signer knows of such a Default or Event of Default, the Officers’ Certificate must describe the Default or Event of Default and the efforts to remedy it. For the purposes of this provision of the Indenture, compliance is determined without regard to any grace period or requirement of notice under the Indenture.

S-22

Table of Contents

Events of Default; Notice and Waiver

The following will constitute “Events of Default” under the Indenture, subject to any additional limitations and qualifications included in the Indenture:

If an Event of Default (other than certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to us or any Significant Subsidiary) has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may declare the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and interest, if any, accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately. However, if we cure all Defaults (except the nonpayment of the principal and interest due on any of the Notes that have become due by acceleration) and certain other conditions in the Indenture are met, with certain exceptions, such declaration may be annulled and past Defaults may be waived by the Holders of a majority of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding as described below. In the case of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization with respect to us or any Significant Subsidiary, the principal amount of the Notes will automatically become and be immediately due and payable.

Within 90 days after a Trust Officer (as defined in the Indenture) has knowledge of the occurrence of a Default or any Event of Default, the Trustee must send to all Holders notice of all Defaults or Events of Default known to a Trust Officer, unless such Default or Event of Default is cured or waived before the giving of such notice. However, except in the case of a payment Default on any of the Notes, the Trustee will be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a trust committee of directors and/or officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders; and provided, further, in the case of any Default with respect to a failure by us or any Restricted Subsidiary to fulfill an obligation to pay Indebtedness for borrowed money, no such notice to Holders shall be given until the end of the 30-day grace period referred to above.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of any proceedings for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, subject to certain limitations specified in the Indenture.

S-23

Table of Contents

The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder of the Notes or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding Notes may waive any past Defaults under the Indenture, except a Default relating to the non-payment of principal or interest, a Default arising from our failure to redeem or repurchase any Notes when required pursuant to the terms of the Indenture or a Default in respect of any covenant that cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected thereby.

Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to the duties of the Trustee, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. No Holder of the Notes may pursue any remedy under the Indenture or the Notes, except in the case of a Default due to the non-payment of principal or interest on the Notes, unless:

To the extent any Holder or Holders request the Trustee to take any action, the Holder or Holders are required to offer to the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any costs, liability or expense of the Trustee.

The Indenture will require us (i) every year to deliver to the Trustee a statement as to performance of our obligations under the Indenture and as to any Default, and (ii) to deliver to the Trustee prompt notice of any Default.

The Indenture will provide that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will be required in the exercise of its powers to use the degree of care that a prudent person would use in the conduct of its own affairs.

Payments of the redemption price, the Change of Control repurchase price, or principal and interest that are not made when due will accrue interest per annum at the then-applicable interest rate plus one percent from the required payment date.

Modifications of the Indenture

With the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, we and the Trustee may modify the Indenture or the rights of the Holders of the Notes. However, without the consent of each Holder of Notes that is affected, we cannot, among other actions:

S-24

Table of Contents

In addition, without the consent of the Holders of all of the Notes then outstanding, we cannot reduce the percentage of Notes the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or to waive a Default or Event of Default as described under “Events of Default, Notice and Waiver.”

We and the Trustee may modify the Indenture without notice to or the consent of any Holder in order to make certain minor changes that do not adversely affect the Holders of the Notes and to conform the text of the Indenture or the Notes (or any guarantee of the Notes) to any corresponding provisions of the “Description of Debt Securities” or “Description of Notes” or similar provisions in any prospectus filed in respect of the Notes (including any prospectus supplement).

Notices

Except as otherwise provided in this “Description of Notes” or the Indenture, notices to Holders of the Notes will be given by mail to the addresses of Holders of the Notes as they appear in the Notes register; provided that notices given to Holders holding Notes in book-entry form may be given through the facilities of DTC or any successor depositary.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders

No director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder or partner of Lennar Corporation, or any successor or any subsidiary of the foregoing, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of Lennar Corporation or any Subsidiary under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Unclaimed Money

If money deposited with the Trustee or a Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and Paying Agent will pay the money back to us upon our written request. However, the Trustee and Paying Agent have the right to withhold paying the money back to us until they publish, at our expense, in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of New York, or mail to each registered Holder, a notice stating that the money will be paid back to us if unclaimed after a date no less than 30 days from the publication or mailing. After the Trustee or Paying Agent pays the money back to us, Holders of Notes entitled to the money must look to us for payment as general creditors, subject to applicable law, and all liability of the Trustee and the Paying Agent with respect to the money will cease.

Governing Law

The Notes and the Indenture, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to the Indenture or the Notes, will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York (without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof).

S-25

Table of Contents

Reporting

The Indenture will provide that any documents or reports that we are required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act will be provided to the Trustee within 15 days after they are filed with the SEC. Documents filed by us with the SEC via the EDGAR system will be deemed provided to the Trustee as of the time such documents are filed via EDGAR.

Form, Denomination, Exchange, Registration and Transfer

The Notes will be issued:

If there are certificated Notes, Holders may present certificated Notes for registration of transfer and exchange at the office maintained by us for such purpose, which will initially be an office or agency of the Trustee.

Global Notes

The Notes will be issued in the form of one or more global notes that will be deposited with the Trustee as custodian for DTC. Holders will receive interests in the global notes. Interests in the global notes will be issued only in denominations of $2,000 principal amount or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of that amount. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for securities in definitive form, a global note may not be transferred except as a whole to a nominee of DTC for such global note, or by a nominee of DTC to DTC or another nominee of DTC, or by DTC or any such nominee to a successor depositary or a nominee of such successor depositary.

Payment and Paying Agent

We will maintain an office or agent in the United States where we will pay the principal on the Notes, and a Holder may present Notes for registration of transfer or exchange for other denominations, which shall initially be an office or agency of the Trustee.

Payments on the Notes represented by the global notes will be made to DTC, or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the global notes, in immediately available funds.

Book-Entry, Delivery and Settlement

We will issue the Notes in the form of one or more permanent global notes in definitive, fully registered, book-entry form. The global notes will be deposited with the Trustee as custodian for DTC and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC.

DTC has advised us as follows:

S-26

Table of Contents

We are providing the following descriptions of the operations and procedures of DTC to the Holders solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of DTC and are subject to change by DTC from time to time. None of us, the underwriters or the Trustee takes any responsibility for these operations or procedures, and each Holder is urged to contact DTC or its participants directly to discuss these matters.

We expect that under procedures established by DTC:

Payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in the global note held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practice as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of customers registered in the names of nominees for such customers. The participants will be responsible for those payments. Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected in accordance with DTC’s rules and will be settled in immediately available funds.

The laws of some jurisdictions require that purchasers of securities take physical delivery of those securities in definitive form. Accordingly, the ability to transfer interests in the Notes represented by a global note to those persons may be limited. In addition, because DTC can act only on behalf of its participants, who in turn act on behalf of persons who hold interests through participants, the ability of a person having an interest in Notes represented by a global note to pledge or transfer those interests to persons or entities that do not participate in DTC’s system, or otherwise to take actions in respect of such interest, may be affected by the lack of a physical definitive security in respect of such interest.

As long as the Notes are represented by one or more global notes, DTC’s nominee will be the Holder of the Notes and therefore will be the only entity that can exercise a right to repayment, repurchase or conversion of the Notes. Notice by participants or indirect participants or by owners of beneficial interests in a global note held through such participants or indirect participants of the exercise of the option to require purchase of beneficial interests in Notes represented by a global note must be transmitted to DTC in accordance with its procedures on a form required by DTC and provided to participants. In order to ensure that DTC’s nominee will timely exercise a right to purchase with respect to a particular note, the beneficial owner of such note must instruct the broker or the participant or indirect participant through which it holds an interest in such note to notify DTC of its desire to exercise a right to purchase. Different firms have cut-off times for accepting instructions from their customers and, accordingly, each beneficial owner should consult the broker or other participant or indirect participant through which it holds an interest in a note in order to ascertain the cut-off time by which such an instruction must be given in order for timely notice to be delivered to DTC. We will not be liable for any delay in delivery of notices of the exercise of the option to elect purchase.

Notes represented by a global note will be exchangeable for registered certificated securities with the same terms only if: (1) DTC is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or if DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days; (2) we decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfer through DTC (or any successor depositary); or (3) an Event of Default under the Indenture occurs and is continuing.

Neither we nor the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of Notes by DTC or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of DTC relating to the Notes.

Concerning the Trustee

The Bank of New York Mellon is the Trustee under the Indenture and will be appointed by us as the initial Paying Agent, registrar and custodian with regard to the Notes. We may maintain deposit accounts and conduct other banking transactions with the Trustee or its affiliates in the ordinary course of business. The Trustee is the trustee under indentures relating to the Existing Notes in addition to the Notes. The Trustee and its affiliates may from time to time in the future provide banking and other services to us in the ordinary course of their business.

Discharge of the Indenture

We may satisfy and discharge our obligations under the Indenture with respect to the Notes by:

Upon the deposit of such funds with the Trustee, the Indenture will, with certain limited exceptions, cease to be of further effect with respect to the Notes. The rights that would continue following the deposit of those funds with the Trustee are:

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 successor trustee, 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 indenture dated December 31, 1997, 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” or at the office of the trustee that is a party to it.

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 offer one or more issues of debt securities. An indenture or a supplemental indenture will set forth specific terms of each issue of debt securities. There will be prospectus supplements relating to particular issues or series of debt securities. Each prospectus supplement will describe:

Table of Contents

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 certificated or uncertificated form, in registered form with or without coupons or in bearer form with coupons, if applicable.

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:

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:

Mergers and Other Transactions

Our 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 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 (i.e., 100% 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.

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

General

At the date of this prospectus, we were authorized to issue up to 300,000,000 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. At August 31, 2014, 173,941,743 shares of our Class A common stock, 31,303,195 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

Dividend Rights

Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock and participating preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will be entitled to share equally, on a per share basis, in any dividends that our Board of Directors may determine to issue from time to time. In the event that a dividend is paid in the form of shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock, our Board of Directors may determine that the holders of shares of Class A common stock will receive Class A common stock, and the holders of shares of Class B common stock will receive Class B common stock.

Voting Rights

Our Class B common stock is identical in every respect with our Class A common stock, except that (a) each share of Class B common stock entitles the holder to ten votes on each matter submitted to the vote of the common stockholders, while each share of Class A common stock entitles the holder to only one vote, (b) 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), and (c) under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), certain matters affecting the rights of holders of Class B common stock may require approval of the holders of the Class B common stock voting as a separate class. The holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights.

As of August 31, 2014, Stuart A. Miller, our Chief Executive Officer, had voting control, through family-owned entities and personal holdings, of Class A and Class B common stock which would entitle Mr. Miller to approximately 44.3% of the combined votes that could be cast by the holders of our outstanding Class A and Class B common stock combined. That gives significant influence to Mr. Miller in electing our directors and approving 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 and to operate our business.

Liquidation Rights

In the event of our dissolution or liquidation, after satisfaction of all our debts and liabilities, the payment of liquidating dividends to the holders of any preferred stock that may be outstanding equal to the

9

Table of Contents

amounts to which they are preferentially entitled, and the payment of a liquidating distribution totaling $10.00 per share to the holders of any participating preferred stock that may be outstanding, the holders of Class A and Class B common stock will be entitled to a liquidating distribution totaling $10.00 per share. Any liquidating distributions to the holders of the participating preferred stock and the Class A and Class B common stock in excess of $10.00 per share will be made to the holders of all those classes on an equal per share basis without regard to class.

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

Holders of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive, redemption, subscription or conversion rights other than as described above. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock could be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any preferred stock or participating preferred stock, if any, which may be issued in the future.

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:

10

Table of Contents

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

Our participating preferred stock is identical with the Class A common stock in every way, except that (a) no 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 $.0125 per share, then no 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 $.0125 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 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

Following is a description of the anti-takeover effects of certain provisions of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (“Certificate of Incorporation”) and of our By-Laws, as amended (“Bylaws”).

Advance Notice Requirements. Our By-Laws contain a requirement that stockholders give advance notice of their intention to nominate candidates for election as directors or to bring other business before an annual or special meeting of stockholders. These By-Law provisions may prevent some matters from being voted upon at a meeting. They may prevent or deter a potential acquirer from soliciting proxies to elect a slate of directors selected by the potential acquirer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.

We have also provided in our By-Laws that our stockholders must meet requirements set forth in our By-Laws to be able to request that the Board of Directors set a record date for action to be taken by the written consent of stockholders. This provision may discourage or limit the ability of an acquirer to cause the stockholders to act by written consent.

Calling of Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our By-Laws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called by stockholders only by notice given by our president or secretary 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. These provisions may impede a stockholder’s ability to bring matters before a special meeting of stockholders.

Undesignated Preferred Stock. The ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our Board of Directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to acquire us. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring or preventing hostile takeovers or delaying or preventing changes in control or management of our Company.

Board Authority to Amend By-Laws. Under our By-Laws, our Board of Directors has the authority to adopt, amend or repeal the By-laws without the approval of our stockholders.

Table of Contents

Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute

We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL regulating corporate takeovers. In general, Section 203 prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging, under certain circumstances, in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date the person became an interested stockholder unless:

Generally, a business combination includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. An interested stockholder is a person who owns 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting securities or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and, within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, did own 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting securities, and affiliates and associates of such person. The existence of this provision may have an antitakeover effect with respect to transactions our Board of Directors does not approve in advance. Section 203 may also discourage attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of capital stock held by stockholders.

DESCRIPTION OF DEPOSITARY SHARES

We may issue depositary receipts representing interests, which are called depositary shares, in shares of our common stock of either class or of particular series of a preferred stock. If we did that, we would deposit the common or preferred stock which is the subject of 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.

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.

13

Table of Contents

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:

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.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

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 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:
