LandSource to Emerge from Chapter 11 as Newhall Land Development

MIAMI, July 20 — Lennar Corporation announced that the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Delaware has confirmed the plan of reorganization for LandSource Communities Development LLC. LandSource will emerge from bankruptcy as a reorganized company called Newhall Land Development, LLC. This confirmation clears the way for the reorganized company to emerge from Chapter 11 with more than $90 million in cash and free of debt.

As part of the plan, Lennar will invest approximately $140 million in exchange for a 15 percent equity stake in the reorganized Newhall, the settlement and the release of all claims that might have been asserted against Lennar, and ownership of the equity in several projects that were formerly owned by LandSource.

Lennar Corporation, founded in 1954, is one of the nation's leading builders of quality homes for all generations. The Company builds affordable, move-up and retirement homes primarily under the Lennar brand name. Lennar's Financial Services segment provides primarily mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services for both buyers of the Company's homes and others. Previous press releases and further information about the Company may be obtained at the "Investor Relations" section of the Company's website, www.lennar.com.
