On September 28, 2026, Beazer Homes USA, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a conditional notice of redemption to redeem the $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.250% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) that remain outstanding (the “Redemption”) on October 20, 2026 (the “Redemption Date”), subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth therein. The Redemption is being made pursuant to the terms of the indenture, dated as of September 24, 2019, governing the terms of the 2029 Notes, at a redemption price equal to 101.208% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

The Redemption is conditioned upon the substantially concurrent consummation, on the Redemption Date, of the previously announced merger (the “Merger”) of Bulldogs Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Dream Finders Homes, Inc. (“Dream Finders”), with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Dream Finders, pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 6, 2026, among Dream Finders, Merger Sub and the Company, and the receipt by the Company, or by Dream Finders or any other person on the Company’s behalf, of funds in an amount that, together with cash on hand, is sufficient to fund the aggregate redemption price for the 2029 Notes on the Redemption Date (the substantially concurrent consummation of the Merger and the receipt of such funds, collectively, the “Merger Condition”). Accordingly, none of the 2029 Notes will be deemed due and payable on the Redemption Date unless the Merger Condition is satisfied or waived by the Company in its sole discretion.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

The information presented herein may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 giving Dream Finders’ and the Company’s expectations or predictions of future financial or business performance or conditions. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “target,” “estimate,” “continue,” “positions,” “prospects” or “potential,” by future conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could” or “may,” or by variations of such words or by similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties which change over time. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and neither Dream Finders nor the Company assumes any duty to update forward-looking statements other than as required by law. As forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, caution should be exercised against placing undue reliance on such statements.

In addition to factors previously disclosed in Dream Finders’ and the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements and historical performance: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the definitive merger agreement between Dream Finders and the Company; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Dream Finders or the Company; the failure of the Company to obtain necessary stockholder approval or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the Merger on a timely basis or at all; the possibility that the Merger Condition is not satisfied or waived and that the Redemption is delayed or the notice of redemption is rescinded; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the Merger are not realized when expected or at all; the possibility that the Merger may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the Merger; Dream Finders’ ability to obtain financing and complete the acquisition and integration of the Company successfully or fully realize cost savings and other benefits and other consequences associated with mergers, acquisitions and divestitures; negative effects of announcing the Merger or the consummation of the Merger on the market price of our common stock, credit ratings or operating results; and the potential impact of announcement of the Merger or consummation thereof on relationships, including with employees, customers and competitors.
