any Investment (other than any Permitted Investment), including any Investment
in an Unrestricted Subsidiary (including by the designation of a Subsidiary of
the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary).

                  "RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY" means any Subsidiary of the Company
which is not an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

                  "S&P" means Standard and Poor's Ratings Group or any successor

Person.

                  "TRUSTEE" means the party named as such above until a
successor replaces such party in accordance with the applicable provisions of
this Indenture and thereafter means the successor serving hereunder.

                  "UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY" means any Subsidiary of the Company
so designated by a resolution adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company
or a duly authorized committee thereof as provided below; PROVIDED that (a) the
holders of Indebtedness thereof do not have direct or indirect recourse against
the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, and neither the Company nor any
Restricted Subsidiary otherwise has liability, for any payment obligations in
respect of such Indebtedness (including any undertaking, agreement or instrument
evidencing such Indebtedness), except, (i) in each case, to the extent that the
amount thereof constitutes a Restricted Payment permitted by the Indenture, (ii)
in the case of Non-Recourse Indebtedness, to the extent such recourse or
liability is for the matters discussed in the last sentence of the definition of
"Non-Recourse Indebtedness," or (iii) to

<PAGE>

                                      -27-

the extent such Indebtedness is a guarantee by such Subsidiary of Indebtedness
of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and (b) no holder of any Indebtedness
of such Subsidiary shall have a right to declare a default on such Indebtedness
or cause the payment thereof to be accelerated or payable prior to its stated
maturity as a result of a default on any Indebtedness of the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary. Subject to the foregoing, the Board of Directors of the
Company or a duly authorized committee thereof may designate any Subsidiary to
be an Unrestricted Subsidiary; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) the net amount (the
"DESIGNATION AMOUNT") then outstanding of all previous Investments by the
Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries in such Subsidiary will be deemed to be
a Restricted Payment at the time of such designation and will reduce the amount
available for Restricted Payments under Section 3.03 hereof, to the extent
provided therein, (ii) the Company must be permitted under Section 3.03 hereof
to make the Restricted Payment deemed to have been made pursuant to clause (i),
and (iii) after giving effect to such designation, no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In accordance with the foregoing,
and not in limitation thereof, Investments made by any Person in any Subsidiary
of such Person prior to such Person's merger with the Company or any Restricted
Subsidiary (but not in contemplation or anticipation of such merger) shall not
be counted as an Investment by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary if such

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such redesignation and the incurrence of
any such additional Indebtedness, the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries
could incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness under Section 3.02(a) hereof. Any
such designation or redesignation by the Board of Directors of the Company or a
committee thereof will be evidenced to the Trustee by the filing with the
Trustee of a certified copy of the resolution of the Board of Directors of the
Company or a committee thereof giving effect to such designation or
redesignation and an Officers'

<PAGE>

Certificate certifying that such designation or redesignation complied with the
foregoing conditions and setting forth the underlying calculations of such
Officers' Certificate. The designation of any Person as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary shall be deemed to include a designation of all Subsidiaries of such
Person as Unrestricted Subsidiaries; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the ownership of
the general partnership interest (or a similar member's interest in a limited
liability company) by an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not cause a Subsidiary of
the Company of which more than 95% of the equity interest is held by the Company
or one or more Restricted Subsidiaries to be deemed an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

                  "WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE TO MATURITY" means, when applied to any
Indebtedness or portion thereof at any date, the number of years obtained by
dividing (i) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the amount of
each then remaining installment, sinking fund, serial maturity or other required
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

<PAGE>

                                      -29-

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

<PAGE>

                                      -30-

                  (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

<PAGE>

                                      -31-

                           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 February 1, 1999 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 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

<PAGE>

                                      -32-

(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) $25 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 February 4, 1999; provided, however, that
each Restricted Payment described in clauses (A) and (B) of this sentence shall
be taken into account for purposes 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),

<PAGE>

                                      -33-

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

<PAGE>

                                      -34-

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.

                  (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 $5 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 $25 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

<PAGE>

                                      -35-

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 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

<PAGE>

                                      -36-

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

<PAGE>

                                      -37-

restrict the 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 date of this Indenture 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

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

                          10 1/2% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2005

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 April 1 and
October 1 of each year, commencing October 1, 2000, 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 March 15 and September 15 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

                                      A-4
<PAGE>

co-Registrar without notice. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries 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 ("TIA") as in effect on the date of
the Indenture. The Securities and the Guarantees are subject to all such terms,
and Securityholders 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 Securityholder 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.       REDEMPTION.

                  Except as set forth in the following sentence, the Securities
will not be redeemable. The Company may redeem Securities, at any time prior to
April 1, 2003, with the net cash proceeds of one or more Public Equity Offerings
by the Company, at a redemption price equal to 110.5% of the principal amount of
such Securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of
redemption; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that after each such redemption not less than
$100,000,000 principal amount of Securities (excluding any Securities held by
the Company or any of its Affiliates) remains outstanding. Notice of any such
redemption must be given within 60 days after the date of the closing of the
relevant Public Equity Offering.

                                      A-5
<PAGE>

                  Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not
more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Securities to be
redeemed at his registered address. Securities in denominations larger than
$1,000 may be redeemed in part. On and after the redemption date interest ceases
to accrue on Securities or portions of them called for redemption, provided that
if the Company shall default in the payment of such Security at the redemption
price together with accrued interest, interest shall continue to accrue at the
rate borne by the Securities.

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

7.       PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.

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

8.       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.

                                      A-6
<PAGE>

9.       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 Securityholder,
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 rights of any Securityholder.

10.      SUCCESSOR CORPORATION.

                  When a successor corporation assumes all the obligations of
its predecessor under the Securities and the Indenture, the predecessor
corporation will be released from those obligations.

11.      TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY.

                  American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Trustee under the
Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept
deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its affiliates, and may
otherwise deal with the Company or its affiliates, as if it were not Trustee.

12.      NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS.

                  A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the
Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under
the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by
reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Securityholder by accepting
a Security waives and releases all

                                      A-7
<PAGE>

such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the
issue of the Securities.

13.      DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE.

                  The Indenture contains certain provisions pertaining to
defeasance, which provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if
set forth herein.

14.      AUTHENTICATION.

                  This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee signs the
certificate of authentication on the other side of this Security.

15.      ABBREVIATIONS.

                  Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a

              [FORM OF NOTATION ON SECURITY RELATING TO GUARANTEE]

                                    GUARANTEE

                  The undersigned (the "Guarantors") have unconditionally
guaranteed, 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, the due and punctual payment of interest on the
overdue principal and interest, if any, on the Securities, to the extent lawful,
and the due and punctual performance of all other obligations of the Company to
the Holders or the Trustee all in accordance with the terms set forth in Article
Nine of the Indenture and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or
renewal of any Securities or any of such other obligations, that the same will
be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of
the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise.

                  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 a Security by
accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and
release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Guarantees.

                  Each holder of a Security by accepting a Security 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.

<PAGE>

                  The Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose
until the certificate of authentication on the Securities 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.
