In light of recent actions and statements by PHM and its Board, the Reporting Person is now considering whether further governance changes, beyond the immediate removal of the CEO (including, without limitation, potential changes in the Board), may be required in order to appropriately realign the strategic direction of PHM with the best interests of its shareholders. The Reporting Person will continue to closely monitor the actions of PHM, the Board and management and may engage in further communications with the Board, management and other shareholders, and may make public statements, regarding these and other business strategy matters.
