(b)        Hovnanian shall file with the Commission the annual reports and the information, documents and other reports required to be filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.  Any documents or other reports that Hovnanian is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act must be filed by Hovnanian with the Trustee within 15 calendar days after the same are filed with the Commission.  In the event that Hovnanian is no longer subject to such periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, Hovnanian shall nevertheless continue to file reports with the Commission and the Trustee and deliver such reports to each Holder of Amortizing Notes as if it were subject to such reporting requirements.  Regardless of whether Hovnanian is required to furnish such reports to its stockholders pursuant to the Exchange Act, it shall cause its consolidated financial statements and a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition” written report, similar to those that would have been required to appear in annual or quarterly reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act, to be delivered to Holders of Amortizing Notes.  The posting of the reports, information and documents referred to in this Section 3.05(b) on Hovnanian’s website or one maintained on its behalf for such purpose shall be deemed to satisfy Hovnanian’s delivery obligations under this Section 3.05(b) to the Trustee and the Holders with respect thereto.  Any such document that Hovnanian files with the Commission via the Commission’s ▇▇▇▇▇ system shall be deemed to be filed with the Trustee for purposes of this Section 3.05(b) at the time such document is filed via the ▇▇▇▇▇ system or posted on Hovnanian’s website or a site maintained on Hovnanian’s behalf.  The Trustee shall have no obligation to determine whether or not such information, documents or reports have been filed through the ▇▇▇▇▇ filing system.  Delivery of the reports and documents described in this Section 3.05(b) to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including Hovnanian’s or the Issuer’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an Officers’ Certificate).

Section 3.06.  Guarantees.  Hovnanian and each Subsidiary set forth on Schedule 1 hereto shall provide a Guarantee. Hovnanian shall be permitted to cause any other

13

Subsidiary of Hovnanian to provide a Guarantee.  If any Subsidiary of Hovnanian that is not a Guarantor at any time after the date of this Supplemental Indenture guarantees the Issuer’s obligations under any Applicable Debt then outstanding, such Subsidiary must provide a Guarantee.

A Subsidiary required to provide a Guarantee pursuant to Section 5.04 or the immediately preceding sentence shall execute a Guarantee Notation, execute a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B hereto, and deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee to the effect that such supplemental indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Subsidiary and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Subsidiary, enforceable against such Subsidiary in accordance with its terms (subject to customary exceptions).

Section 3.07.  Limitations on Mergers, Consolidations and Sales of Assets.

(a)        This Section 3.07 shall replace the provisions contained in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of the Base Indenture in their entirety and all references to Sections 9.1 and 9.2 in the Base Indenture or any provision thereof shall be deemed, for the purposes of the Amortizing Notes, to be references to this Section 3.07.

(b)        Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor shall consolidate or merge with or into, or sell, lease, convey or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of its assets (including, without limitation, by way of liquidation or dissolution), or assign any of its obligations under the Amortizing Notes, the Guarantees or the Indenture (as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in one transaction or in a series of related transactions), to any Person (in each case other than in a transaction in which Hovnanian, the Issuer or a Guarantor is the survivor of such consolidation or merger, or the transferee in such sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, as the case may be) unless:

(i)            the Person formed by or surviving such consolidation or merger (if other than Hovnanian, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be), or to which such sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition or assignment will be made (collectively, the “Successor”), is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor assumes by supplemental indenture in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee all of the obligations of Hovnanian, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, under the Amortizing Notes or the relevant Guarantee, as the case may be, and the Indenture; and

(ii)           immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

The foregoing provisions shall not apply to a transaction involving the sale or disposition of Capital Stock of a Guarantor, or the consolidation or merger of a Guarantor, or the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets

14

of a Guarantor, that in any such case results in such Guarantor being released from its Guarantee pursuant to Section 5.04.

Section 3.08. Payments. The Issuer covenants and agrees that it shall deposit with the Trustee (or paying agent) all amounts due and payable on each of the Amortizing Notes on or prior to noon, New York City time, on the respective payment dates.

(b)                       A Default as described in Section 4.02(a)(v) above shall not be deemed an Event of Default until the Trustee notifies the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Amortizing Notes notify the Issuer and the Trustee, of the Default and the Issuer does not cure the Default within 60 days after receipt of the notice. The notice must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that the notice is a “Notice of Default.” If such a Default is cured within such time period, it ceases to be a Default.

(c)                        The second and third paragraphs of Section 5.1 of the Base Indenture shall be deemed to be replaced, with respect to the Amortizing Notes, in their entirety, with the following:

“If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default with respect to Hovnanian or the Issuer set forth in Section 4.02(a)(ix) or (x) of the Amortizing Notes Supplemental Indenture), shall have occurred and be continuing under the Indenture, the Trustee by notice to the Issuer, or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Amortizing Notes then outstanding by notice to the Issuer and the Trustee, may declare all Amortizing Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon such declaration of acceleration, all future, scheduled Installment Payments on the Amortizing Notes shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default with respect to Hovnanian or the Issuer specified in Section 4.02(a)(ix) or (x) of the Amortizing Notes Supplemental Indenture occurs, such an amount shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other act on the part of the Trustee, the Issuer, any Guarantor or any Holder.  This provision, however, is subject to the condition that, if at any time after the future, scheduled Installment Payments on the Amortizing Notes shall have been so declared due and payable and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Issuer shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured Installment Payments, if any, upon all of the Amortizing Notes and the principal of any and all Amortizing Notes which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on overdue amounts, if any, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law and on such principal at the rate borne by the Amortizing Notes to the date of such payment or deposit) and the reasonable compensation, disbursements, expenses and advances of the Trustee and all other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.6 of the Base Indenture, and if (i) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) any and all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of any Installment Payments that shall have become due by acceleration, shall have been cured or shall have been waived in accordance with Section 5.7 of the Base Indenture, then and in every such case the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Amortizing Notes then Outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer and to the Trustee, may rescind and

17

annul such declaration and its consequences; but no such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. ”

(d)                       The fifth paragraph of Section 5.1 of the Base Indenture shall be deemed to be replaced, with respect to the Amortizing Notes, in its entirety, with the following:

“Except with respect to an Event of Default pursuant to Section 4.02(a)(i) or (ii) of the Amortizing Notes Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or knowledge of any cure of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default, or written notice thereof shall have been given to a Responsible Officer by the Issuer, Hovnanian or any Holder of the Amortizing Notes.”

(e)                        Section 5.7 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended by inserting the following phrase at the end of the first sentence thereof: “or is in conflict with the terms of the Indenture”.

Section 4.03.  Notice of Defaults. This Section 4.03 replaces Section 5.8 of the Base Indenture in its entirety.  The Trustee shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of a default with respect to the Amortizing Notes, mail to all Holders of the Amortizing Notes, as the names and the addresses of such Holders appear upon the Securities register, at the Issuer’s expense, notice of all defaults known to the Trustee with respect to the Amortizing Notes, unless such defaults shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice (the term “defaults” for the purpose of this Section 4.03 being hereby defined to be any Event of Default defined in Section 4.02, not including periods of grace, if any, provided for therein and irrespective of the giving of the written notice specified in Section 4.02(a)(v) but in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 4.02(a)(v) no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 60 days after the giving of written notice thereof to the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.02(a)(v)); provided, however, that, except in the case of default in the payment of any Installment Payment or any default resulting from a failure to comply with any obligation under Article 9, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the Trustee determines that the withholding of such notice is in the Holders’ interests.

Section 4.04.  Additional Provisions Related to Events of Default.  The provisions of Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7, and 5.9 of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Amortizing Notes, in each case, except as provided above.

ARTICLE 5
GUARANTEES; RELEASE OF GUARANTOR

Section 5.01.  Base Indenture Guarantee.  Article Thirteen of the Base Indenture is hereby replaced in its entirety by this Article 5.  All references in the Base Indenture to

18

Article Thirteen or any provision thereof shall be deemed, for the purposes of the Amortizing Notes, to be references to this Article 5, and all references in the Base Indenture to “Guarantees” shall be deemed, for the purposes of the Amortizing Notes, to be references to the Guarantees as defined herein.

Section 5.02.  Unconditional Guarantee.  Each of the Guarantors hereby unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Amortizing Notes or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that (i) the due and punctual payment of the principal of, interest on (including, without limitation, Installment Payments and the Repurchase Price of any Amortizing Notes payable pursuant to Article 9, if applicable), and all other amounts owing with respect to the Amortizing Notes, whether on the Maturity Date, on any Repurchase Date or on any Installment Payment Date, by acceleration or otherwise, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, including all amounts payable to the Trustee, and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Amortizing Notes or any of such other obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or shall be performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether on the applicable due dates, by acceleration or otherwise (each such guarantee, a “Guarantee”).

If the Issuer fails to make any payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any other obligation hereunder is not satisfied in full when required for whatever reason, each Guarantor shall be obligated to immediately pay the same or satisfy such obligation, as the case may be.  Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be continuing, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, the validity or enforceability of the Amortizing Notes, the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder or the Trustee with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of such Guarantor.  If any Holder is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer or any Guarantor, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Issuer or such Guarantor, any amount paid by the Issuer or any Guarantor to the Trustee or such Holder, this Article 5, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.  Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment and satisfaction in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.

The Guarantee set forth in this Section 5.02 shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose with respect to an Amortizing Note until the certificate of authentication on such Amortizing Note shall have been signed by the Trustee or any duly appointed agent.

19

Section 5.03.  Obligations of Each Guarantor Unconditional.  Nothing contained in this Article 5 or elsewhere in the Indenture or in any Amortizing Note is intended to or shall impair, as between any Guarantor and the Holders, the obligations of such Guarantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the principal of and interest on the Amortizing Notes (including, without limitation, Installment Payments and the Repurchase Price of any Amortizing Notes payable pursuant to Article 9, if applicable) as and when the same shall become due and payable and to satisfy all other obligations hereunder when the same shall be required to be satisfied, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of the Guarantee or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of such Guarantor, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon any Event of Default under the Indenture in respect of cash, property or securities of such Guarantor received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

Upon any distribution of assets of a Guarantor referred to in this Article 5, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the Holders, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of other indebtedness of such Guarantor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 5.

Section 5.04.  Release of a Guarantor.  Upon the release of the guarantee by a Guarantor of all then outstanding Applicable Debt, the Guarantee of such Guarantor under the Indenture shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged from all obligations in respect of the Amortizing Notes upon notice from Hovnanian to the Trustee to such effect, without any further action required on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Amortizing Notes.  If any such released Guarantor thereafter guarantees any Applicable Debt (or if any released guarantee under any Applicable Debt is reinstated or renewed), then such released Guarantor shall guarantee the Amortizing Notes on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all Applicable Debt ceases to be outstanding (a “Repayment Event”), no Guarantee shall be released or provided on account of such Repayment Event; provided that if any event occurs thereafter that would have caused any Subsidiary of Hovnanian to be released from its Guarantee, or to provide a Guarantee, if the Applicable Debt were still outstanding (pursuant to the terms of the Applicable Debt on the Issue Date), such Subsidiary shall be released from, or shall provide, as the case may be, such Guarantee.

Section 5.05.  Execution and Delivery of Guarantee.  The execution by each Guarantor of the Indenture (or a supplemental indenture in the form of Exhibit B) together with an executed Guarantee Notation substantially in the form included in the form of Amortizing Note attached as Exhibit A hereto evidences the Guarantee of such

20

Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Amortizing Note.  The delivery of any Amortizing Note by the Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in the Indenture on behalf of each Guarantor.

Section 5.06.  Limitation on Guarantor Liability.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Amortizing Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent conveyance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the Bankruptcy Law or any comparable provision of state or foreign law.  To effectuate that intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor under its Guarantee are limited to the maximum amount that, 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 other than Hovnanian that makes a payment or distribution under a Guarantee shall 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 GAAP.

Section 5.07.  Article 5 Not to Prevent Events of Default.  The failure by the Guarantors to make a payment on account of principal or interest (including, without limitation, Installment Payments and the Repurchase Price of any Amortizing Notes payable pursuant to Article 9, if applicable) on the Amortizing Notes, or to satisfy any other obligation hereunder, by reason of any provision in this Article 5 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of any Event of Default.

Section 5.08.  Waiver by the Guarantors.  Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, demand of performance, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency of bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, the benefit of discussion, protest, notice and all demand whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Amortizing Notes, in the Indenture and in this Article 5.

Section 5.09.  Subrogation and Contribution.  Upon making any payment with respect to, or otherwise satisfying, any obligation of the Issuer under this Article 5, the Guarantor making such payment or otherwise satisfying such obligation shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Issuer with respect to such obligation; provided that the Guarantor may not enforce either any right of subrogation, or any right to receive payment in the nature of contribution, or otherwise, from any other Guarantor, with respect to such payment so long as any amount payable by the Issuer hereunder or

21

under the Amortizing Notes remains unpaid, or any other obligation of the Issuer hereunder has not been satisfied.

Section 5.10.  Stay of Acceleration.  If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Issuer under the Indenture or the Amortizing Notes is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Indenture are nonetheless payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Trustee or the Holders.

Section 5.11.  Guarantors as “obligors” for Provisions Included in the Indenture Pursuant to the TIA.  Each provision included in the Indenture which is required to be included by any of Sections 310 to 317 of the TIA, inclusive, or is deemed applicable to the Indenture by virtue of the provisions of the TIA, and which applies to an “obligor,” as that term is defined under the TIA, shall apply to each of the Guarantors.

ARTICLE 6

ARTICLE 7
THE AMORTIZING NOTES

Section 7.01.  Form of Amortizing Notes.

(a)                        The Amortizing Notes will initially be issued as Component Amortizing Notes in the form of Attachment 4 to the form of Global Unit attached as Exhibit A to the Units Agreement, and will be attached to the related Global Unit and registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee thereof and held by the Units Agent, as custodian of

23

such Global Unit for the Depositary. On the Issue Date, each of the following shall be issued and authenticated hereunder: (i) a Component Amortizing Note with an initial balance of 100,000 Amortizing Notes and (ii) a Global Amortizing Note with an initial balance of zero Amortizing Notes.

(b)                       Upon any separation or recreation of Global Units or any other event that would cause any Amortizing Notes included in a Unit to be issued as Separate Amortizing Notes, (x) in the case of a Global Unit, the Depositary and the Trustee shall reflect on their books and records the appropriate increases and decreases in the number of Amortizing Notes represented by the Separate Amortizing Note in global form and the Amortizing Note included as a component of a Global Unit, or (y) in the case of a Definitive Unit, the Trustee shall exchange Separate Amortizing Notes for Amortizing Notes to be included as a component of a Unit, or vice versa as the case may be, in each case, in accordance with the Units Agreement.

(c)                        The terms of such Amortizing Notes are herein incorporated by reference and are part of this Supplemental Indenture.

(d)                       The Amortizing Notes shall be issuable in denominations initially equal to the Initial Principal Amount and integral multiples in excess thereof.

Section 7.02.  Installment Payments.

(b)                       On the first Installment Payment Date occurring on June 1, 2013, the Issuer shall pay, in cash, an Installment Payment with respect to each Amortizing Note in an amount equal to $39.83 per Amortizing Note, and on each Installment Payment Date thereafter, the Issuer shall pay, in cash, equal semi-annual Installment Payments with respect to each Amortizing Note in an amount equal to $30.00 per Amortizing Note; provided that, in respect of any Certificated Amortizing Note, the final Installment Payment shall be made only against surrender of such Certificated Amortizing Note to the Paying Agent.

24

(d)                       Each Installment Payment for any Installment Payment Period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If an Installment Payment is payable for any period shorter or longer than a full Installment Payment Period, such Installment Payment shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. Furthermore, if any date on which an Installment Payment is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the Installment Payment on such date shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay. However, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, then such Installment Payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on the date when such Installment Payment was originally due.

Section 7.03.  Depositary.  The Depositary for the Global Amortizing Note shall initially be The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).  The Global Amortizing Note (which shall initially have a balance of zero Amortizing Notes) shall be deposited on or about the Issue Date with, or on behalf of, DTC and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC (such nominee being referred to herein as the “Global Amortizing Note Holder”).

Section 7.04.  Certificated Amortizing Notes.

(a)                        The seventh paragraph of Section 2.8 of the Base Indenture shall be deemed, with respect to the Amortizing Notes, to be modified by inserting after “Section 2.8” in the first line thereof the parenthesis “(other than in accordance with the terms of the following paragraph)”.

(b)                       The eighth and ninth paragraphs of Section 2.8 of the Base Indenture shall be deemed, with respect to the Amortizing Notes, to be replaced in their entirety with the following:

“If:

25

(i)                                     the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Amortizing Note and the Issuer is unable to find a qualified replacement for such Depositary within 90 days;

(ii)                                  at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act; or

(iii)                               an Event of Default, or any failure on the part of the Issuer or Hovnanian to observe or perform any covenant or agreement in the Indenture has occurred and is continuing and the beneficial owner of any Amortizing Notes represented by a Global Amortizing Note requests that its Amortizing Notes be issued in physical, certificated form,

then, in each case, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of Certificated Amortizing Notes, shall authenticate and deliver Certificated Amortizing Notes in any authorized denominations, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Amortizing Note or Notes representing such Amortizing Notes (or in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Amortizing Notes in respect of which a beneficial owner has requested the issuance of Amortizing Notes in physical, certificated form pursuant to clause (iii) above) in exchange for such Global Amortizing Note or Notes (or relevant portion thereof).”

(c)                        The terms of Section 2.8 of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Amortizing Notes except as modified by this Section 7.04.

Section 7.05.  Disclaimer.  None of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Security registrar or the paying agent shall have any responsibility or obligation to any beneficial owner in a Global Amortizing Note, an agent member or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any agent member, with respect to any ownership interest in the Global Amortizing Note or with respect to the delivery to any agent member, beneficial owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Global Amortizing Note.  All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Amortizing Notes and this Indenture shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Amortizing Note).  The rights of beneficial owners in a Global Amortizing Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the applicable procedures.  The Issuer, the Trustee, the Security registrar and the paying agent shall be entitled to rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.  The Issuer, the Trustee, the paying agent and the Security registrar shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary, and any nominee thereof, that is the registered Holder of any Global Amortizing Note for all purposes of this Agreement relating to such Global Amortizing Note (including the payment or delivery of amounts due hereunder

26

and the giving of instructions or directions by or to any beneficial owner) as the sole Holder of such Global Amortizing Note and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof.  None of the Issuer, the Trustee, the paying agent and the Security registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts or omissions of the Depositary with respect to such Global Amortizing Note, for the records of any such Depositary, including records in respect of the beneficial owners of any such Global Amortizing Note, for any transactions between the Depositary and any agent member or between or among the Depositary, any such agent member and/or any Holder or beneficial owner of such Global Amortizing Note, or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Amortizing Note.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Amortizing Note, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee, or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by any depositary (or its nominee), as a Holder, with respect to such Global Amortizing Note or shall impair, as between such Depositary and beneficial owners of such Global Amortizing Note, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Global Amortizing Note.

None of the Issuer, the Trustee, the paying agent or the Security registrar shall have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Amortizing Note (including any transfers between or among participants of DTC, members or beneficial owners in any Global Amortizing Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

Section 9.02.  Repurchase Right Notice.  In connection with any Fundamental Change or Reverse Merger Fundamental Change, the Issuer shall provide to each Holder of Amortizing Notes (whether any such Amortizing Note is a Separate Amortizing Note or a component of a Unit) a notice (the “Repurchase Right Notice”) specifying:

(a)           the events causing the Fundamental Change or Reverse Merger Fundamental Change, as the case may be;

Such Repurchase Right Notice shall be delivered on or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of the relevant Fundamental Change or Reverse Merger Fundamental Change.  In addition, within five Business Days of the occurrence of any Reverse Merger Fundamental Change, the Issuer shall deliver notice thereof to Holders.

Section 9.03.  Procedures for Exercise.

(a)           To exercise the Repurchase Right, a Holder must deliver, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Date, the Amortizing Notes to be repurchased to the Paying Agent (or, if the relevant Amortizing Notes are components of Units, to the Units Agent pursuant to the Units Agreement), together with a duly completed written Repurchase Notice, in each case in accordance with appropriate procedures of the Depositary, unless the Amortizing Notes are not in the form of a Global Amortizing Note (or the Units are not in the form of a Global Unit, as the case may be), in which case such Holder must deliver the Amortizing Notes to be

28

repurchased to the Paying Agent (or the Units that include the Amortizing Notes to be repurchased to the Units Agent pursuant to the Units Agreement, as the case may be), duly endorsed for transfer to the Issuer, together with a Repurchase Notice.

(b)           The Repurchase Notice must state the following:

(i)            if Certificated Amortizing Notes (or Definitive Units) have been issued, the certificate numbers of the Amortizing Notes (or Units), or if the Amortizing Notes (or Units) are in the form of a Global Amortizing Note (or a Global Unit, as the case may be), the Repurchase Notice must comply with appropriate procedures of the Depositary;

(ii)           the number of Amortizing Notes to be repurchased; and

(iii)          that the Amortizing Notes are to be repurchased by the Issuer pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Amortizing Notes and this Article 9.

(a)           A Holder may withdraw any Repurchase Notice (in whole or in part) by a written, irrevocable notice of withdrawal delivered to the Paying Agent, with a copy to the Trustee and the Issuer, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Date.

(b)           The notice of withdrawal must state the following:

(i)            the number of the withdrawn Amortizing Notes;

(ii)           if Certificated Amortizing Notes (or Definitive Units) have been issued, the certificate numbers of the withdrawn Amortizing Notes (or Units, as applicable), or if the Amortizing Notes (or Units) are in the form of a Global Amortizing Note (or a Global Unit, as the case may be), the notice of withdrawal must comply with appropriate procedures of the Depositary; and

(iii)          the number of Amortizing Notes, if any, that remain subject to the Repurchase Notice.

Section 9.05.  Effect of Repurchase.

(a)           The Issuer shall be required to repurchase the Amortizing Notes with respect to which the Repurchase Right has been exercised on the Repurchase Date. To effectuate such repurchase, the Issuer shall deposit immediately available funds with the Paying Agent, on or prior to noon, New York City time, on the Repurchase Date, an amount or amounts sufficient to pay the Repurchase Price with respect to those Amortizing Notes for which the Repurchase Right has been exercised. A Holder electing to exercise the Repurchase Right shall receive payment of the Repurchase Price on the

29

later of (i) the Repurchase Date and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of the Amortizing Notes (or Units, as applicable).

(b)           If the Paying Agent holds money on the Repurchase Date sufficient to pay the Repurchase Price with respect to those Amortizing Notes for which the Repurchase Right has been exercised, then (i) such Amortizing Notes shall cease to be Outstanding and interest shall cease to accrue thereon (whether or not book-entry transfer of the Amortizing Notes or Units, as applicable, is made or whether or not the Amortizing Notes or Units, as applicable, are delivered as required herein), and (ii) all other rights of the Holder shall terminate (other than the right to receive the Repurchase Price); provided that if the Repurchase Date falls between a Regular Record Date and the corresponding Installment Payment Date, the Holder as of such Regular Record Date shall retain the right to receive the related Installment Payment.

(c)           The Issuer shall, in connection with any repurchase offer pursuant to this Article 9, if required, (i) comply with the provisions of the tender offer rules under the Exchange Act that may then be applicable, (ii) file a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the Exchange Act, and (iii) otherwise comply with all federal and state securities laws in connection with any repurchase offer pursuant to this Article 9, in each case, so as to permit the rights and obligations under this Article 9 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified herein.

(d)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Amortizing Notes may be repurchased at the option of Holders if the scheduled, future Installment Payments thereon have been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Repurchase Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Issuer in the payment of the Repurchase Price with respect to such Amortizing Notes).

The Installment Payment on any Installment Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. If an Installment Payment is payable for any period shorter or longer than a full Installment Payment Period, such Installment Payment shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. In the event that any Installment Payment Date is not a Business Day, then payment of the Installment Payment on such date shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay. However, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, then such Installment Payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on the date when such Installment Payment was originally due. Installment Payments shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Amortizing Note is registered at the close of business on May 15 or November 15, as applicable (each, a “Regular Record Date”).  Installment Payments shall be payable at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York or in Delaware; provided, however, that payment of Installment Payments may be made at the option of

[REVERSE OF AMORTIZING NOTE]

▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ENTERPRISES, INC.

11.00% Senior Amortizing Notes due 2017

This Amortizing Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Issuer designated as its 11.00% Senior Amortizing Notes due 2017 (herein sometimes referred to as the “Amortizing Notes”), issued under the Senior Indenture, dated as of February 14, 2011, among the Issuer, Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. (“Hovnanian”), the other Guarantors from time to time party thereto and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture) (including any provisions of the TIA that are deemed incorporated therein) (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 2, 2012 (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture”), among the Issuer, Hovnanian, the other Guarantors from time to time party thereto, and the Trustee (the Base Indenture as supplemented by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders. The terms of other series of Securities issued under the Indenture may vary with respect to interest rates, issue dates, maturity, redemption, repayment, currency of payment and otherwise as provided in the Indenture. The Indenture further provides that Securities of a single series may be issued at various times, with different maturity dates and may bear interest at different rates. This series of Securities is limited in initial aggregate principal amount as specified in the Fifth Supplemental Indenture.

Each Installment Payment shall constitute a payment of interest (at a rate of 11.00% per annum) and a partial repayment of principal on the Amortizing Note, allocated as set forth in the schedule below:

A-5

The Amortizing Notes shall not be subject to redemption at the option of the Issuer. However, a Holder shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase some or all of its Amortizing Notes for cash at the Repurchase Price per Amortizing Note and on the Repurchase Date, upon the occurrence of certain events and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture.

This Amortizing Note is not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance and covenant defeasance at any time of the indebtedness on this Amortizing Note upon compliance by the Issuer with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Amortizing Note.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Amortizing Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, then (unless no declaration of acceleration or notice is required for such Event of Default) either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Amortizing Notes then outstanding may declare all future, scheduled Installment Payments on the Amortizing Notes to be due and payable immediately, in the manner, subject to the conditions and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures for certain purposes as described therein.

No provision of this Amortizing Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay Installment Payments on this Amortizing Note at the time, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed.

The Amortizing Notes are guaranteed, on a senior basis, by the Guarantors as set forth in the Indenture and the Guarantee endorsed hereon.

The Amortizing Notes are originally being issued as part of the 6.00% Exchangeable Note Units (the “Units”) issued by Hovnanian and the Issuer pursuant to that certain Units Agreement, dated as of October 2, 2012, among Hovnanian, the Issuer and Wilmington Trust Company, as Units Agent (the “Units Agreement”).  Reference is hereby made to the Units Agreement for a description of the terms thereof applicable to the Units.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Amortizing Note shall be registered on the Security register of the Issuer, upon due presentation of this Amortizing Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York or in Delaware, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee or

A-6

transferees a new Amortizing Note or Notes in authorized denominations and for a like aggregate principal amount.

The Amortizing Notes are initially issued in registered, global form without coupons in denominations initially equal to $231.49 and integral multiples in excess thereof.

The Issuer or Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer of this Amortizing Note.  No service charge shall be made for any such transfer or for any exchange of this Amortizing Note as contemplated by the Indenture.

The Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Amortizing Note is registered upon the Security register for the Amortizing Notes as the absolute owner of this Amortizing Note (whether or not this Amortizing Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, interest, if any, on this Amortizing Note and for all other purposes; and neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

This Amortizing Note and the Indenture, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to the Indenture or this Amortizing Note, shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amortizing Note shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Indenture.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of any Installment Payment on this Amortizing Note, or for any claim based hereon, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Issuer in the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future of the Issuer or of any predecessor or successor, either directly or through the Issuer or any successor, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment of penalty or otherwise; and all such personal liability is expressly released and waived as a condition of, and as part of the consideration for, the issuance of this Amortizing Note.

In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Amortizing Note and the provisions of the Indenture, the Indenture shall prevail.

[FORM OF NOTATION ON AMORTIZING NOTE RELATING TO GUARANTEE]

GUARANTEE

The undersigned (the “Guarantors”) hereby unconditionally guarantee, jointly and severally, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Amortizing Notes or the obligations of the Issuer thereunder or under the Amortizing Notes, that (i) the due and punctual payment of the principal of, interest on (including, without limitation, Installment Payments and the Repurchase Price of any Amortizing Notes payable pursuant to Article 9 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, if applicable), and all other amounts owing with respect to the Amortizing Notes, whether on the Maturity Date, on any Repurchase Date or on any Installment Payment Date, by acceleration or otherwise, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee thereunder or under the Amortizing Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Amortizing Notes, including all amounts payable to the Trustee, and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Amortizing Notes or any of such other obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or shall be performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether on the applicable due dates, by acceleration or otherwise (each such guarantee, a “Guarantee”).

No past, present or future stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator, as such, of any of the Guarantors shall have any liability under the Guarantee by reason of such Person’s status as stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator. Each Holder of an Amortizing Note by accepting an Amortizing Note waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Guarantee.

Each Holder of an Amortizing Note by accepting an Amortizing Note agrees that any Guarantor named below shall have no further liability with respect to its Guarantee if such Guarantor otherwise ceases to be liable in respect of its Guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

The Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication on the Amortizing Notes upon which the Guarantee is noted shall have been executed by the Trustee under the Indenture by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers.

The Guarantee, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to the Guarantee, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Guarantee and the provisions of the Indenture, the Indenture shall prevail.
