Exhibit 10.13

[LETTERHEAD OF ORACLE
CORPORATION]

September 7, 2004

BY COURIER ONLY

Mr. Juergen Rottler

 

 

Dear Juergen,

     We are pleased to offer you the position of Executive Vice President of
Outsourcing with Oracle Corporation. You will report directly to Oracle’s
Chief Executive Officer, and will have end-to-end business responsibility for
the Oracle On Demand Division. We offer you starting compensation at the
monthly rate of $50,000 (equivalent to an annual rate of $600,000).

     You will receive a one-time $500,000 sign-on bonus following your start
date, which will vest over a two-year period, at the rate of 1/24th for each
full month of employment. In the event that you do not remain at Oracle for
two years, you will be required to repay the unvested portion of your sign-on
bonus (except as provided below). Oracle also agrees to reimburse you in an
amount of up to $10,000 for legal services incurred by you in connection with
review of your employment terms and related tax advice.

     For fiscal year 2005, you will have a discretionary bonus target of 100%
of your base salary. Your fiscal year 2005 bonus will be calculated such that,
for each percentage of growth in bookings over the prior fiscal year’s
installed base, you will be paid an equal percentage of your salary as bonus.
A discretionary bonus is typically paid within ten weeks of the close of a
fiscal year based upon annual targets set at the start of each fiscal year.
Even if you do not meet all annual targets for the payment of the discretionary
bonus, you will be paid a cash lump sum bonus of not less than $600,000 (not
prorated), provided you are employed on the date of payment. In Oracle’s
fiscal year 2006 and thereafter, you will participate in Oracle’s Executive
Bonus Plan.

     After you join Oracle, a proposal will be submitted to the Oracle Board of
Directors requesting approval to grant you an option to purchase 800,000 shares
of common stock. The option will be “non-qualified,” which generally means
that you will have taxable income at the time of its exercise. The option
exercise price will be the fair market value in effect when the option is
granted, as determined by the Board. The option will be issued under a written
agreement and will be subject to compliance with all applicable securities
regulations. As long as you remain continuously employed by Oracle, you will
be eligible to exercise your right to purchase one quarter of the option shares
per year, beginning one year after the Board grants your option, subject to the
terms of your written option agreement. You should consult your personal tax
advisor if you have questions regarding the stock option grant.

     If you are involuntarily terminated from Oracle without cause, you will
execute a full release of claims and, in exchange, receive: (a) a lump sum cash
payment equal to twelve months’ base salary, (b) your pro-rated bonus for the
applicable fiscal year, (c) forgiveness of the repayment of the sign-on bonus
not yet vested, and (d) twelve months of COBRA coverage, subject to approval by
the Compensation Committee of Oracle’s Board of Directors.

     To accept this offer, please sign the Employment Agreement (be sure to
confirm your intended start date), the Proprietary Information Agreement and
all other documents required, which were sent to you under separate cover, and
return them to Oracle in the enclosed envelope. Employment and employee
benefits can only begin after you have signed these documents and they have
been received by our Employee Service Center. If you have any questions
regarding these documents, please feel free to call our Employee Service Center
at (888) 404-2494.

     If you have any questions regarding the conditions of your offer, please
feel free to call me at (714) 444-8334. This offer remains open until
September 17, 2004. We look forward to having you begin work with us.

Employment Agreement & Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate

Please read this Agreement carefully before you agree to its terms by signing
it. You may wish to consult an attorney prior to signing the Agreement. The
Agreement sets forth certain important benefits, terms and conditions related
to your employment with Oracle. It also sets forth the mutual agreement
between you and Oracle to arbitrate any dispute or claim arising out of or
related to your Oracle employment and to waive all rights to a trial or hearing
before a court or jury.

Proprietary Information

Oracle’s proprietary rights and confidential information are among the
company’s most important assets. In addition to signing this Agreement as a
condition of employment, you also must sign the Proprietary Information
Agreement included in the New Employee Packet.

Oracle Policies

Your adherence to the Oracle Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, set forth in
a booklet included in the New Employee Packet, is vital to Oracle and to your
success at Oracle. When you sign this Agreement, you are agreeing to
thoroughly familiarize yourself with the Oracle Code of Ethics and Business
Conduct and you are agreeing to abide by it. You also agree to take Oracle’s
Ethics and Business Conduct course, available on-line through Oracle’s
intranet. In addition, when you sign this Agreement, you are acknowledging
that you have read the letter addressing Oracle’s Safety Program highlights
included in the New Employee Packet. The Oracle Code of Ethics and Business
Conduct and the Oracle Employee Handbook are on the Oracle intranet and
accessible to all employees. You agree, after beginning employment, to access
the Employee Handbook and thoroughly familiarize yourself with Oracle policies
and to abide by them. Additionally, from time to time, Oracle will communicate
important information about its policies by way of electronic mail notification
and/or the Oracle intranet. By signing this agreement, you agree to thoroughly
review these policy communications and to abide by them.

Employment Eligibility

In order to comply with the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, the
federal government requires the company to examine documents which prove your
legal right to work in the United States. Please see the Verification of
Eligibility for Employment information which also is a part of the New Employee
Packet.

Benefits

Oracle offers its employees a comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life and
disability insurance package through Oracleflex, a flexible benefits program.
Oracleflex may require employee contributions. The company also offers
benefits including a 401(k) Savings and Retirement Plan, an Employee Stock
Purchase Plan, a Dependent Care Reimbursement Plan and an Educational
Reimbursement Plan. The details of these plans are included in the New
Employee Packet and/or are available on the Oracle intranet. You understand
that you must make your Oracleflex benefits elections within the limited time
period set forth in the communication accompanying your personal identification
number that you will receive after beginning employment.

By signing this Agreement, you authorize Oracle to deduct from your
compensation any and all contributions associated with your elections under
Oracleflex, the Oracle 401(k) Savings and Investment Plan, the Oracle Employee
Stock Purchase Plan, or any other benefit offered by Oracle in which you
participate and for which an employee contribution is required.

 

 

Your starting compensation, position and other terms and conditions
related to your employment are set forth in the offer letter you received. By
signing this Agreement, you also are agreeing to the terms and conditions set
forth in the offer letter. Oral or written representations contradicting or
supplementing the terms of the offer letter are not valid.

At-Will Employment

Employment at Oracle is at-will. The company makes no express or implied
commitment that your employment will have a minimum or fixed term, that Oracle
may take adverse employment action only for cause or that your employment is
terminable only for cause. Either you or Oracle may terminate the employment
relationship at any time for any reason. Additionally, Oracle may take any
other employment action at any time for any reason. No one at Oracle may make,
unless specifically authorized in writing by Oracle’s Board of Directors, any
promise, express or implied, that employment is for any fixed term or that
cause is required for the termination of or change in the employment
relationship.

Equal Employment Opportunity and Escalation Process

Oracle believes that all employees should be treated fairly and equitably in
conformance with its Equal Employment Opportunity policies. We take personnel
action without regard to race, color, national origin, sex, marital status,
age, religion, disability or sexual orientation. Our commitment to these
policies applies to every phase of the employment relationship, and we make
every effort to comply with these policies. If, however, you feel you have not
been treated fairly in some way in your Oracle employment, you agree, before
taking any other action, to make a written complaint to a Director of the Human
Resources Department and to allow individuals within the Department a
reasonable period of time in which to investigate and informally attempt to
resolve your issues.

Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate

You and Oracle understand and agree that any existing or future dispute or
claim arising out of or related to your Oracle employment, or the termination
of that employment, will be resolved by final and binding arbitration and that
no other forum for dispute resolution will be available to either party, except
as to those claims identified below. The decision of the arbitrator shall be
final and binding on both you and Oracle and it shall be enforceable by any
court having proper jurisdiction.

The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to the Federal
Arbitration Act, and in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution
of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association or the
Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures adopted by Judicial Arbitration &
Mediation Services (“JAMS”). The arbitrator will have all the powers a judge
would have in dealing with any question or dispute that may arise before,
during and after the arbitration.

          Claims Not Covered

Claims for benefits under the workers’ compensation, unemployment insurance and
state disability insurance laws are not covered by this Arbitration Agreement.
Additionally, claims by you or by Oracle for temporary restraining orders or
preliminary injunctions (“temporary equitable relief”) in cases in which such
temporary equitable relief would be otherwise authorized by law are not covered
by this Arbitration Agreement. In such cases where temporary equitable relief
is sought, the trial on the merits of the action will occur in front of, and
will be decided by, the arbitrator, who will have the same ability to order
legal or equitable remedies as could a court of general jurisdiction.

 

 

          Costs

Oracle agrees to bear the costs of the arbitrator’s fee and all other
costs related to the arbitration, assuming such costs are not expenses that you
would be required to bear if you were bringing the action in a court of law.
You and Oracle shall each bear your own attorneys’ fees incurred in connection
with the arbitration, and the arbitrator will not have authority to award
attorneys’ fees unless a statute at issue in the dispute or other appropriate
law authorizes the award of attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party, in which
case the arbitrator shall have the authority to make an award of attorneys’
fees as permitted by the applicable statute or law.

          Consideration

You understand and acknowledge that you are offered employment in
consideration of your promise to arbitrate claims. In addition, the promises
by Oracle and by you to resolve claims by arbitration in accordance with the
provisions of this Arbitration Agreement, rather than through the courts,
provide consideration for each other.

          Knowing and Voluntary Agreement; Complete Agreement

You understand and agree that you have been advised to consult with an attorney
of your own choosing before signing this Employment Agreement & Mutual
Agreement to Arbitrate, and you have had an opportunity to do so.

	 	 	YOU FURTHER UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU HAVE READ THIS EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT & MUTUAL AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATIE CAREFULLY. BY SIGNING IT, YOU
ARE EXPRESSLY WAIVING ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL OR HEARING BEFORE A
COURT OR JURY OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION
UNDER THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT WHICH CLAIMS YOU MAY NOW OR IN THE FUTURE
HAVE.

This Arbitration Agreement contains the complete agreement between Oracle and
you regarding the subject of arbitration and alternate dispute resolution, and
supersedes any and all prior written, oral, or other types of representations
and agreements between Oracle and you, if any.

Severability

If any portion of this Employment Agreement & Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate
shall, for any reason, be held invalid or unenforceable, or contrary to public
policy or any law, the remainder of the Agreement shall not be affected by such
invalidity or unenforceability, but shall remain in full force and effect, as
if the invalid or unenforceable term or portion thereof had not existed within
this Agreement.

Modification

This Employment Agreement & Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate may be modified only
in a writing, expressly referencing this Agreement and you by full name, signed
by you and Oracle’s Board of Directors.

By signing below you are agreeing that you have read and understood every
provision of this Agreement and that, in consideration for your employment at
Oracle, you agree to abide by its terms.

Consolidated Interest Expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization expenses and
other non-cash charges to earnings and (iv) interest and financing fees and
expenses which were previously capitalized and which are amortized to cost of

            "Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio" means, with respect to
any determination date, the ratio of (x) Consolidated Cash Flow Available for
Fixed Charges for the prior four full fiscal quarters (the "Four Quarter
Period") for which financial results have been reported immediately preceding
the determination date (the "Transaction Date"), to (y) the aggregate
Consolidated Interest Incurred for the Four Quarter Period. For purposes of this
definition, "Consolidated Cash Flow Available for Fixed Charges" and
"Consolidated Interest Incurred" shall be calculated after giving effect on a
pro forma basis for the period of such calculation to (i) the incurrence or the
repayment, repurchase, defeasance or other discharge or the assumption by
another Person that is not an Affiliate (collectively, "repayment") of any
Indebtedness of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (and the application of
the proceeds thereof) giving rise to the need to make such calculation, and any
incurrence or repayment of other Indebtedness (and the application of the
proceeds thereof), at any time on or after the first day of the Four Quarter
Period and on or prior to the Transaction Date, as if such incurrence or
repayment, as the case may be (and the application of the proceeds thereof),
occurred on the first day of the Four Quarter Period, except that Indebtedness
under revolving credit facilities shall be deemed to be the average daily
balance of such Indebtedness during the Four Quarter Period (as reduced on such
pro forma basis by the application of

<PAGE>
                                      -6-

any proceeds of the incurrence of Indebtedness giving rise to the need to make
such calculation); (ii) any Asset Disposition or Asset Acquisition (including,
without limitation, any Asset Acquisition giving rise to the need to make such
calculation as a result of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (including
any Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any such Asset
Acquisition) incurring Acquired Indebtedness at any time on or after the first
day of the Four Quarter Period and on or prior to the Transaction Date), as if
such Asset Disposition or Asset Acquisition (including the incurrence or
repayment of any such Indebtedness) and the inclusion, notwithstanding clause
(ii) of the definition of "Consolidated Net Income," of any Consolidated Cash
Flow Available for Fixed Charges associated with such Asset Acquisition as if it
occurred on the first day of the Four Quarter Period; provided, however, that
the Consolidated Cash Flow Available for Fixed Charges associated with any Asset
Acquisition shall not be included to the extent the net income so associated
would be excluded pursuant to the definition of "Consolidated Net Income," other
than clause (ii) thereof, as if it applied to the Person or assets involved
before they were acquired; and (iii) the Consolidated Cash Flow Available for
Fixed Charges and the Consolidated Interest Incurred attributable to
discontinued operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, shall be
excluded. Furthermore, in calculating "Consolidated Cash Flow Available for
Fixed Charges" for purposes of determining the denominator (but not the
numerator) of this "Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio," (1) interest on
Indebtedness in respect of which a pro forma calculation is required that is
determined on a fluctuating basis as of the Transaction Date (including
Indebtedness actually incurred on the Transaction Date) and which will continue
to be so determined thereafter shall be deemed to have accrued at a fixed rate
per annum equal to the rate of interest on such Indebtedness in effect on the
Transaction Date; and (2) notwithstanding clause (1) above, interest on such
Indebtedness determined on a fluctuating basis, to the extent such interest is
covered by agreements relating to Interest Protection Agreements, shall be
deemed to accrue at the rate per annum resulting after giving effect to the
operation of such agreements.

Subsidiary (other than a Mortgage Subsidiary) or (y) any Person (other than a
Restricted Subsidiary) in which any Person other than the Company or any
Restricted

Subsidiary has an ownership interest, except, in each case, to the extent that
any such income has actually been received by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary in the form of cash dividends or similar cash distributions during
such period, which dividends or distributions are not in excess of the Company's
or such Restricted Subsidiary's (as applicable) pro rata share of such
Unrestricted Subsidiary's or such other Person's net income earned during such
period, (ii) except to the extent includable in Consolidated Net Income pursuant
to the foregoing clause (i), the net income (or loss) of any Person that accrued
prior to the date that (a) such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or is
merged with or into or consolidated with the Company or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries (except, in the case of an Unrestricted Subsidiary that is
redesignated a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, to the extent of its
retained earnings from the beginning of such period to the date of such
redesignation) or (b) the assets of such Person are acquired by the Company or
any Restricted Subsidiary, (iii) the net income of any Restricted Subsidiary to
the extent that (but only so long as) the declaration or payment of dividends or
similar distributions by such Restricted Subsidiary of that income is not
permitted by operation of the terms of its charter or any agreement, instrument,
judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or governmental regulation applicable to
that Restricted Subsidiary during such period, (iv) the gains or losses,
together with any related provision for taxes, realized during such period by
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary resulting from (a) the acquisition of
securities, or extinguishment of Indebtedness, of the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary or (b) any Asset Disposition by the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary, and (v) any extraordinary gain or loss together with any related
provision for taxes, realized by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary;
provided, further, that for purposes of calculating Consolidated Net Income
solely as it relates to clause (iii) of Section 3.03(a) hereof, clause (iv)(b)
above shall not be applicable.

payment of principal, including, without limitation, payment at final maturity,
in respect thereof, by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest
one-twelfth) that will elapse between such date and the making of such payment
by (ii) the sum of all such payments described in clause (i)(a) above.

                                    COVENANTS

Section 3.01. Repurchase of Notes upon Change of Control.

            (a)   In the event that there shall occur a Change of Control, each
Holder of Notes shall have the right, at such Holder's option, to require the
Company to purchase all or any part of such Holder's Notes on a date (the
"Repurchase Date") that is no later than 90 days after notice of the Change of
Control, at 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the
Repurchase Date.

            (b)   On or before the thirtieth day after any Change of Control,
the Company is obligated to mail, or cause to be mailed, to all Holders of
record of Notes a notice regarding the Change of Control and the repurchase
right. The notice shall state the Repurchase Date, the date by which the
repurchase right must be exercised, the price for the Notes and the procedure
which the Holder must follow to exercise such right. Substantially
simultaneously with mailing of the notice, the Company shall cause a copy of
such notice to be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the Borough
of Manhattan, The City of New York. To exercise such right, the Holder of such
Note must deliver at least ten days prior to the Repurchase Date written notice
to the Company (or an agent designated by the Company for such purpose) of the
Holder's exercise of such right, together with the Note with respect to which
the right is being exercised, duly endorsed for transfer; provided, however,
that if mandated by applicable law, a Holder may be permitted to deliver such
written notice nearer to the Repurchase Date than may be specified by the
Company.

            (c)   The Company will comply with applicable law, including Section
14(e) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14e-1 thereunder, if applicable, if the
Company is required to give a notice of right of repurchase as a result of a
Change of Control.

Section 3.02. Limitations on Indebtedness.

            (a)   Until the Notes are rated Investment Grade by both Rating
Agencies (after which time the following covenant will no longer be in effect),
the Company will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary,
directly or indirectly, to, create, incur, assume, become liable for or
guarantee the payment of (collectively, an "incurrence") any Indebtedness
(including Acquired Indebtedness) unless, after giving effect thereto and the
application of the proceeds therefrom, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage
Ratio on the date thereof would be at least 2.0 to 1.0.

            (b)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this
Supplemental Indenture will not prevent the incurrence of: (i) Permitted
Indebtedness, (ii) Refinancing Indebtedness, (iii) Non-Recourse Indebtedness,
(iv) any Guarantee of Indebtedness of the Company

<PAGE>
                                      -25-

represented by the Notes and (v) any guarantee of Indebtedness incurred under
Credit Facilities in compliance with this Indenture.

            (c)   For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in
the event that an item of Indebtedness may be incurred through the first
paragraph of this covenant or by meeting the criteria of one or more of the
types of Indebtedness described in the second paragraph of this covenant (or the
definitions of the terms used therein), the Company, in its sole discretion, (i)
may classify such item of Indebtedness under and comply with either of such
paragraphs (or any of such definitions), as applicable, (ii) may classify and
divide such item of Indebtedness into more than one of such paragraphs (or
definitions), as applicable, and (iii) may elect to comply with such paragraphs
(or definitions), as applicable, in any order.

            (d)   The Company will not, and will not cause or permit any
Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, in any event incur any Indebtedness that
purports to be by its terms (or by the terms of any agreement governing such
Indebtedness) subordinated to any other Indebtedness of the Company or of such
Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is also by its terms (or
by the terms of any agreement governing such Indebtedness) made expressly
subordinated to the Notes or the Guarantee of such Guarantor, as the case may
be, to the same extent and in the same manner as such Indebtedness is
subordinated to such other Indebtedness of the Company or such Guarantor, as the
case may be.

Section 3.03. Limitations on Restricted Payments.

            (a)   Until the Notes are rated Investment Grade by both Rating
Agencies (after which time the following covenant will no longer be in effect),
the Company will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to,
directly or indirectly, make any Restricted Payment unless:

            (i)   no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
      continuing at the time of or immediately after giving effect to such
      Restricted Payment;

            (ii)  immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payment,
      the Company could incur at least $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section
      3.02(a) hereof; and

            (iii) immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payment,
      the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments (including the Fair Market
      Value of any non-cash Restricted Payment) declared or made after the Issue
      Date does not exceed the sum of (a) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of
      the Company on a cumulative basis during the period (taken as one
      accounting period) from and including April 1, 1998 and ending on the last
      day of the Company's fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of such
      Restricted Payment (or in the event such Consolidated Net Income shall be
      a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit), plus (b) 100% of the aggregate net
      cash proceeds

<PAGE>
                                      -26-

      of and the fair market value of Property received by the Company from (1)
      any capital contribution to the Company after June 9, 1997 or any issue or
      sale after June 9, 1997 of Qualified Stock (other than to any Subsidiary
      of the Company) and (2) the issue or sale after June 9, 1997 of any
      Indebtedness or other securities of the Company convertible into or
      exercisable for Qualified Stock of the Company that have been so converted
      or exercised, as the case may be, plus (c) $86.0 million, which is equal
      to the aggregate principal amount of the Company's 6-7/8% Convertible
      Subordinated Notes due 2002 that were converted into the Company's Common
      Equity prior to the Issue Date, plus (d) in the case of the disposition or
      repayment of any Investment constituting a Restricted Payment made after
      the June 9, 1997, an amount (to the extent not included in the calculation
      of the Consolidated Net Income referred to in (a)) equal to the lesser of
      (x) the return of capital with respect to such Investment (including by
      dividend, distribution or sale of Capital Stock) and (y) the amount of
      such Investment that was treated as a Restricted Payment, in either case,
      less the cost of the disposition or repayment of such Investment (to the
      extent not included in the calculation of the Consolidated Net Income
      referred to in (a)), plus (e) with respect to any Unrestricted Subsidiary
      that is redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after June 9, 1997 in
      accordance with the definition of Unrestricted Subsidiary (so long as the
      designation of such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary was treated
      as a Restricted Payment made after June 9, 1997 and only to the extent not
      included in the calculation of the Consolidated Net Income referred to in
      (a)), an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the proportionate interest of
      the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary in an amount equal to the excess of
      (I) the total assets of such Subsidiary, valued on an aggregate basis at
      the lesser of book value and Fair Market Value thereof, over (II) the
      total liabilities of such Subsidiary, determined in accordance with GAAP,
      and (y) the Designation Amount at the time of such Subsidiary's
      designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, plus (f) $50 million minus (g)
      the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments (other than Restricted
      Payments referred to in clause (C) of the immediately succeeding
      paragraph) made after June 9, 1997 through the Issue Date.

            (b)   Clauses (ii) and (iii) of paragraph (a) will not prohibit: (A)
the payment of any dividend within 60 days of its declaration if such dividend
could have been made on the date of its declaration without violation of the
provisions of this Indenture; (B) the repurchase, redemption or retirement of
any shares of Capital Stock of the Company in exchange for, or out of the net
proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the
Company) of, other shares of Qualified Stock; and (C) the purchase, redemption
or other acquisition, cancellation or retirement for value of Capital Stock, or
options, warrants, equity appreciation rights or other rights to purchase or
acquire Capital Stock, of the Company or any Subsidiary held by officers or
employees or former officers or employees of the Company or any Subsidiary (or
their estates or beneficiaries under their estates) not to exceed $20 million in
the aggregate since the Issue Date; provided, however, that each Restricted
Payment described in clauses (A) and (B) of this sentence shall be taken into
account for purposes

<PAGE>
                                      -27-

of computing the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments pursuant to clause
(iii) of paragraph (a).

            (c)   For purposes of determining the aggregate and permitted
amounts of Restricted Payments made, the amount of any guarantee of any
Investment in any Person that was initially treated as a Restricted Payment and
which was subsequently terminated or expired, net of any amounts paid by the
Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such guarantee, shall be
deducted.

            (d)   In determining the "fair market value of Property" for
purposes of clause (iii) of the paragraph (a), Property other than cash, Cash
Equivalents and Marketable Securities shall be deemed to be equal in value to
the "equity value" of the Capital Stock or other securities issued in exchange
therefor. The "equity value" of such Capital Stock or other securities shall be
equal to (i) the number of shares of Common Equity issued in the transaction (or
issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Capital Stock or other securities
issued in the transaction) multiplied by the closing sale price of the Common
Equity on its principal market on the date of the transaction (less, in the case
of Capital Stock or other securities which require the payment of consideration
at the time of conversion or exercise, the aggregate consideration payable
thereupon) or (ii) if the Common Equity is not then traded on the New York Stock
Exchange, American Stock Exchange or Nasdaq National Market, or if the Capital
Stock or other securities issued in the transaction do not consist of Common
Equity (or Capital Stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable for
Common Equity), the value of such Capital Stock or other securities as
determined by a nationally recognized investment banking firm retained by the
Board of Directors of the Company.

Section 3.04. Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates.

            (a)   Until the Notes are rated Investment Grade by both Rating
Agencies (after which time the following covenant will no longer be in effect),
the Company will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to,
make any loan, advance, guarantee or capital contribution to, or for the benefit
of, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any property or assets to,
or for the benefit of, or purchase or lease any property or assets from, or
enter into or amend any contract, agreement or understanding with, or for the
benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company or any Affiliate of any of the
Company's Subsidiaries or any holder of 10% or more of the Common Equity of the
Company (including any Affiliates of such holders), in a single transaction or
series of related transactions (each, an "Affiliate Transaction"), except for
any Affiliate Transaction the terms of which are at least as favorable as the
terms which could be obtained by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as
the case may be, in a comparable transaction made on an arm's length basis with
Persons who are not such a holder, an Affiliate of such a holder or an Affiliate
of the Company or any of the Company's Subsidiaries.

<PAGE>
                                      -28-

            (b)   In addition, the Company will not, and will not cause or
permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into an Affiliate Transaction unless
(i) with respect to any such Affiliate Transaction involving or having a value
of more than $10 million, the Company shall have (x) obtained the approval of a
majority of the Board of Directors of the Company and (y) either obtained the
approval of a majority of the Company's disinterested directors or obtained an
opinion of a qualified independent financial advisor to the effect that such
Affiliate Transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as
the case may be, from a financial point of view and (ii) with respect to any
such Affiliate Transaction involving or having a value of more than $50 million,
the Company shall have (x) obtained the approval of a majority of the Board of
Directors of the Company and (y) delivered to the Trustee an opinion of a
qualified independent financial advisor to the effect that such Affiliate
Transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case
may be, from a financial point of view.

            (c)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Affiliate Transaction will
not include (i) any contract, agreement or understanding with, or for the
benefit of, or plan for the benefit of employees of the Company or its
Subsidiaries generally (in their capacities as such) that has been approved by
the Board of Directors of the Company, (ii) Capital Stock issuances to
directors, officers and employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to
plans approved by the stockholders of the Company, (iii) any Restricted Payment
otherwise permitted under Section 3.03, (iv) any transaction between or among
the Company and one or more Restricted Subsidiaries or between or among
Restricted Subsidiaries (provided, however, no such transaction shall involve
any other Affiliate of the Company (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary to the
extent the applicable amount constitutes a Restricted Payment permitted by this
Indenture)) and (v) any transaction between one or more Restricted Subsidiaries
and one or more Unrestricted Subsidiaries where all of the payments to, or other
benefits conferred upon, such Unrestricted Subsidiaries are substantially
contemporaneously dividended, or otherwise distributed or transferred without
charge, to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary.

Section 3.05. Limitations on Dispositions of Assets.

            Until the Notes are rated Investment Grade by both Rating Agencies
(after which time the following covenant will no longer be in effect), the
Company will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to,
make any Asset Disposition unless (x) the Company (or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of such Asset
Disposition at least equal to the Fair Market Value thereof, and (y) not less
than 70% of the consideration received by the Company (or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be) is in the form of cash, Cash Equivalents and
Marketable Securities. The amount of any Indebtedness (other than any
Indebtedness subordinated to the Notes) of the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary that is actually assumed by the transferee in such Asset Disposition
shall be deemed to be consideration required by clause (y) above for purposes of
determining the percentage of such consideration received by the Company or the
Restricted
<PAGE>

                                      -29-

Subsidiaries. The Net Cash Proceeds of an Asset Disposition shall, within one
year, at the Company's election, (a) be used by the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary in the business of the construction and sale of homes conducted by
the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries or any other business of the Company
or a Restricted Subsidiary existing at the time of such Asset Disposition or (b)
to the extent not so used, be applied to make a Net Cash Proceeds Offer for the
Notes and, if the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary elects or is required to do
so, repay, purchase or redeem any other unsubordinated Indebtedness (on a pro
rata basis if the amount available for such repayment, purchase or redemption is
less than the aggregate amount of (i) the principal amount of the Notes tendered
in such Net Cash Proceeds Offer and (ii) the lesser of the principal amount, or
accreted value, of such other unsubordinated Indebtedness, plus, in each case
accrued interest to the date of repayment, purchase or redemption) at 100% of
the principal amount or accreted value thereof, as the case may be, plus accrued
interest to the date of repurchase or repayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(A) the Company will not be required to apply such Net Cash Proceeds to the
repurchase of Notes in accordance with clause (b) of the preceding sentence
except to the extent that such Net Cash Proceeds, together with the aggregate
Net Cash Proceeds of prior Asset Dispositions (other than those so used) which
have not been applied in accordance with this provision and as to which no prior
Net Cash Proceeds Offer shall have been made, exceed 5% of Consolidated Tangible
Assets and (B) in connection with any Asset Disposition, the Company and the
Restricted Subsidiaries will not be required to comply with the requirements of
clause (y) of the first sentence of this paragraph to the extent that the
aggregate non-cash consideration received in connection with such Asset
Disposition, together with the sum of all non-cash consideration received in
connection with all prior Asset Dispositions that has not yet been converted
into cash, does not exceed 5% of Consolidated Tangible Assets; provided,
however, that when any non-cash consideration is converted into cash, such cash
shall constitute Net Cash Proceeds and be subject to the preceding sentence.

Section 3.06. Limitations on Liens.

            The Company will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Liens, other than
Permitted Liens, on any of its Property, or on any shares of Capital Stock or
Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary, unless contemporaneously therewith or
prior thereto all payments due under this Indenture and the Notes are secured on
an equal and ratable basis with the obligation or liability so secured until
such time as such obligation or liability is no longer secured by a Lien.

Section 3.07. Limitations on Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.

            The Company will not, and will not cause or permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, create, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become
effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction (other than encumbrances or
restrictions imposed by law or by judicial or regulatory action or by provisions
of leases and other agreements that restrict the

<PAGE>
                                      -30-

assignability thereof) on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to (i) pay
dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock or any other
interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, owned by the Company
or any other Restricted Subsidiary, or pay interest on or principal of any
Indebtedness owed to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary, (ii) make
loans or advances to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary, or (iii)
transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company or any other Restricted
Subsidiary, except for (a) encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by
reason of applicable law, (b) covenants or restrictions contained in
Indebtedness in effect on the Issue Date as such covenants or restrictions are
in effect on such date, (c) any restrictions or encumbrances arising under
Acquired Indebtedness; provided, that such encumbrance or restriction applies
only to either the assets that were subject to the restriction or encumbrance at
the time of the acquisition or the obligor on such Indebtedness and its
Subsidiaries, (d) any restrictions or encumbrances arising in connection with
Refinancing Indebtedness; provided, however, that any restrictions and
encumbrances of the type described in this clause (d) that arise under such
Refinancing Indebtedness shall not be materially more restrictive than those
under the agreement creating or evidencing the Indebtedness being refunded,
refinanced, replaced or extended, (e) any Permitted Lien, or any other agreement
restricting the sale or other disposition of property, securing Indebtedness
permitted by this Indenture if such Permitted Lien or agreement does not
expressly restrict the ability of a Subsidiary of the Company to pay dividends
or make or repay loans or advances prior to default thereunder, (f) reasonable
and customary borrowing base covenants set forth in agreements evidencing
Indebtedness otherwise permitted by this Indenture, (g) customary provisions
restricting subletting or assignment of any lease governing a leasehold interest
of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, and (h) any restriction with
respect to a Restricted Subsidiary imposed pursuant to an agreement entered into
for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or
assets of such Restricted Subsidiary pending the closing of such sale or
disposition.

Section 3.08. Limitations on Mergers, Consolidations and Sales of Assets.

            Neither the company nor any Guarantor will consolidate or merge with
or into, or sell, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all
of its assets (including, without limitation, by way of liquidation or
dissolution), or assign any of its obligations under the Notes, the Guarantees
or this Indenture (as an entirety or substantially in one transaction or in a
series of related transactions), to any Person (in each case other than in a
transaction in which the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary is the survivor of a
consolidation or merger, or the transferee in a sale, lease, conveyance or other
disposition) unless: (i) the Person formed by or surviving such consolidation or
merger (if other than the Company 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 or other legal entity
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 the
Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, under

<PAGE>
                                      -31-

the Notes or a Guarantee, as the case may be, and the Indenture, (ii)
immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, (iii) immediately after giving effect to
such transaction and the use of any net proceeds therefrom, on a pro forma
basis, the Consolidated Net Worth of the Company or the Successor (in the case
of a transaction involving the Company), as the case may be, would be at least
equal to the Consolidated Net Worth of the Company immediately prior to such
transaction (exclusive of any adjustments to Consolidated Net Worth attributable
to transaction costs) less any amount treated as a Restricted Payment in
connection with such transaction in accordance with this Indenture and (iv)
unless prior to such transaction the Notes are rated Investment Grade by both
Rating Agencies (after which this clause (iv) shall not apply), immediately
after giving effect to such transaction, the Company could incur at least $1.00
of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 3.02(a) hereof. The foregoing provisions
shall not apply to (i) 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 of a Guarantor, that in any such case results in such Guarantor being
released from its Guarantee pursuant to the Indenture or (ii) a transaction the
purpose of which is to change the state of incorporation of the Company or any
Guarantor.

Section 3.09. Reports to Holders of Notes.

            The Company will 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. The Company will file with the Trustee
and mail to each Holder of record of Notes such reports, information and
documents within 15 days after it files them with the Commission. In the event
that the Company is no longer subject to these periodic requirements of the
Exchange Act, it will nonetheless continue to file reports with the Commission
and the Trustee and mail such reports to each Holder of Notes as if it were
subject to such reporting requirements. Regardless of whether the Company is
required to furnish such reports to its stockholders pursuant to the Exchange
Act, the Company will 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, to be delivered to Holders of Notes.

                                D.R. HORTON, INC.

                          5.625% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2014

1.    Interest.

            D.R. HORTON, INC. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, promises
to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum
shown above. The Company will pay interest semiannually on September 15 and
March 15 of each year, commencing March 15, 2005, until the principal is paid or
made available for payment. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most
recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no
interest has been paid, from the date of original issuance, provided that, if
there is no existing default in the payment of interest, and if this Security is
authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next
succeeding interest payment date, interest shall accrue from such interest
payment date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months.

2.    Method of Payment.

            The Company will pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted
interest, if any, which will be paid on such special payment date to Holders of
record on such special record date as may be fixed by the Company) to the
persons who are registered Holders of Securities at the close of business on the
September 1 and March 1 immediately preceding the interest payment date. Holders
must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The
Company will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at
the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

3.    Paying Agent and Registrar.

            Initially, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the "Trustee")
will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change or appoint any
Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar without notice. The Company or any of
its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates may act as Paying Agent, Registrar
or co-registrar.

4.    Indenture.

            The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of
June 9, 1997 among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, as supplemented
(the "Indenture"). The terms of the Securities and the Guarantees include those
stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the
Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as in effect on the date of the Indenture. The
Securities and the Guarantees are subject to all such

                                      A-3
<PAGE>

terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of
them. Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meanings given to those
terms in the Indenture.

            The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and
without charge a copy of the Indenture and the applicable Authorizing Resolution
or supplemental indenture. Requests may be made to: D.R. Horton, Inc., 1901
Ascension Blvd., Suite 100, Arlington, Texas 76006, Attention: Chief Financial
Officer.

5.    Optional Redemption

            Except as set forth in the following sentence, the Securities will
not be redeemable. At any time and from time to time on or before September 15,
2007, the Company may redeem Securities with the net cash proceeds of one or
more Public Equity Offerings by the Company, at a redemption price equal to
105.625% of the principal amount of such Securities, plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, if any, to the date of redemption; provided, that at least 65%
of the aggregate principal amount of Securities, excluding any Securities held
by the Company or any of its Affiliates, remains outstanding immediately after
the occurrence of such redemption. Notice of any such redemption must be given
within 60 days after the date of the closing of the relevant Public Equity
Offering.

6.    Selection and Notice of Redemption

            Selection of the Securities or portions thereof for redemption
pursuant to the foregoing shall be made by the Trustee only on a pro rata basis
or on as nearly a pro rata basis as is practicable (subject to the procedures of
The Depository Trust Company), unless such method is otherwise prohibited.
Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days
before the redemption date to each Holder whose Securities are to be redeemed at
the registered address of such Holder. Securities in denominations larger than
$1,000 may be redeemed in part. On and after the redemption date, interest
ceases to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption,
provided that if the Company shall default in the payment of such Securities at
the redemption price together with accrued interest, interest shall continue to
accrue at the rate borne by the Securities.

7.    Denominations, Transfer, Exchange.

            The Securities are in registered form only without coupons in
denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. A Holder may transfer
or exchange Securities by presentation of such Securities to the Registrar or a
co-Registrar with a request to register the transfer or to exchange them for an
equal principal amount of Securities of other denominations. The Registrar may
require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and
transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by
the Indenture. The Registrar need not transfer or exchange any Security selected
for redemption, except the unredeemed part thereof if the Security is redeemed
in part, or transfer

                                      A-4
<PAGE>

or exchange any Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of
Securities to be redeemed.

8.    Persons Deemed Owners.

            The registered Holder of this Security shall be treated as the owner
of it for all purposes.

9.    Unclaimed Money.

            If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed
for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent will pay the money back to the
Company at its request. After that, Holders entitled to the money must look to
the Company for payment unless an abandoned property law designates another
person.

10.   Amendment, Supplement, Waiver.

            Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may
be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a
majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities and any past default
or compliance with any provision relating to the Securities may be waived in a
particular instance with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of the outstanding Securities. Without the consent of any Holder, the
Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities
to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated
Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities, to create a
Series and establish its terms, to remove a Guarantor which, in accordance with
the terms of the Indenture, ceases to be liable in respect of its Guarantee, or
to make any other change, provided such action does not adversely affect the

jointly and severally (such guarantee by each Guarantor being referred to herein
as the "Guarantee") (i) the due and punctual payment of the principal of and
interest on the Securities, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise,
