Any future purchases may be on the same terms or on terms that are more or less favorable to Holders of Notes than the terms of the Tender Offer and could occur as soon as the Expiration Time. Any future purchases by Forestar or its affiliates will depend on various factors existing at that time. There can be no assurance as to which, if any, of these alternatives (or combinations thereof) Forestar or its affiliates may choose to pursue in the future. Forestar has retained J.P.
