ARTICLE 3 — Deferral Commitments

	 	 	 
	A Participant may elect to defer up to 100% of his Compensation.

	 
	 	 
	ARTICLE 4

	 	- Deferral Accounts

	 	4.1	 	Deferral Accounts. A Deferral Account shall be established for each Participant. The
Deferral Account shall be credited with the applicable portion of the Annual Deferral as of
the approximate date such amounts would otherwise have been paid to the Participant. Deferral
Accounts shall, except as otherwise provided in the Plan, be adjusted for investment
experience according to the Crediting Rate, as in effect from time to time, until all benefits
attributable to the Participant’s Deferral Account have been paid. Notwithstanding anything
in this paragraph to the contrary, the Deferred Compensation Committee may, in its sole
discretion, establish administrative rules for the purpose of crediting and adjusting Deferral
Accounts.

	 	4.2	 	Statements of Account. The Deferred Compensation Committee shall provide periodically (but
no less frequently than annually) to each Participant a statement setting forth the balance of
the Deferral Account maintained for such Participant.

	 	4.3	 	Vesting of Deferral Accounts. Each Participant shall be one hundred percent (100%) vested at
all times in the adjusted balance of the Participant’s Deferral Account.

	 	4.4	 	Determining Balance of Deferral Account for Article 5 Payments. For purposes of the payment
of benefits attributable to a Participant’s Deferral Account pursuant to Article 5, the
balance of the Participant’s Deferral Account shall be determined as of the Valuation Date
immediately preceding the date of payment.

ARTICLE 5 — Payment of Benefits

	 	5.1	 	Election of Time and Form of Payment. Except as provided in paragraph 5.2 of the Plan with
respect to certain Separation from Service payments, in paragraph 5.4 of the Plan with respect
to Unforeseeable Emergency distributions, and in Article 6 of the Plan with respect to death
benefits, a Participant’s Deferral Contribution Period Benefit shall be paid to the
Participant as specified in the Participant’s Deferral Election Form relating to the
applicable Deferral Contribution Period. A Participant may elect to receive a lump sum
payment of his Deferral Contribution Period Benefit, which shall be made either (a) during
(and not earlier than) January of a chosen year that is at least five (5) years after the end
of the Deferral Contribution Period in which the contribution was made; or (b) within ninety
(90) days after the end of the calendar quarter in which the Participant’s Separation from
Service occurs. Any such election shall be irrevocable

	 	5.2	 	Separation from Service Payments. In the event of a Participant’s Separation from Service
with the Company prior to a date elected pursuant to paragraph 5.1(a) of the Plan, the Company
shall pay to the Participant the related Deferral Contribution Period Benefit(s) in the form
of a lump sum payment, which shall be made within ninety days (90) days after the end of the
calendar quarter in which the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs.

	 	5.3	 	Change of Control. In the event a Change of Control occurs, the Employer shall pay to all
Participants with Deferral Accounts under the Plan the related Deferral Contribution Period
Benefit(s) in the form of a lump sum payment. The payment shall be made as soon as
practicable after the Valuation Date coincident with or next following the date on which the
Change of Control occurs.

	 	5.4	 	Unforeseeable Emergency Distributions. At the sole discretion of the Deferred Compensation
Committee, in the case of a Participant who incurs an Unforeseeable Emergency, the Deferred
Compensation Committee may direct the Company to pay all or a portion of the Participant’s
benefits attributable to his Deferral Account to or on behalf of the Participant to alleviate
the Unforeseeable Emergency. In no event, however, shall the amount of the payment exceed the
amounts necessary to satisfy the Unforeseeable Emergency plus amounts necessary to pay taxes
reasonably anticipated as a result of the payment, after taking into account the extent to
which the hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or
otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extent the liquidation of the
assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship). In the event that a payment is made
to a Participant on account of Unforeseeable Emergency pursuant to this paragraph 5.4, the
Participant’s Annual Deferrals under the Plan shall be suspended for the remainder of the
Deferral Contribution Period in which the Participant received the payment on account of
Unforeseeable Emergency.

ARTICLE 6 — Death Benefits

Lump Sum Death Benefit. If a Participant dies prior to Separation from Service or after Separation
from Service but before the balance of the Participant’s Deferral Account has been paid, the
Company shall pay the balance of the Participant’s Deferral Account to the Participant’s
Beneficiary in a lump sum within ninety (90) days after the end of the calendar quarter in which
the death of the Participant occurs.

ARTICLE 7 — Conditions Related to Benefits

	 	7.1	 	Nonassignability. The benefits provided under the Plan may not be alienated, assigned,
transferred, pledged or hypothecated by or to any person or entity, at any time or in any
manner whatsoever. No Participant or Beneficiary may borrow from or against the Participant’s
Deferral Account. These benefits shall be exempt from the claims of creditors or other
claimants of any Participant or Beneficiary and from all orders, decrees, levies, garnishment
or executions against any Participant or Beneficiary to the fullest extent allowed by law.

	 	7.2	 	No Right to Company Assets. The benefits paid under the Plan shall be paid from the general
funds of the Company, and the Participant and any Beneficiary shall be no more than unsecured
general creditors of the Company with no special or prior right to any assets of the Company
for payment of any obligations hereunder. A Participant’s Annual Deferrals, as adjusted
pursuant to the Crediting Rates, shall remain solely the property of the Company, subject to
the claims of the Company’s general creditors, until distributed to the Participant or the
Participant’s Beneficiary in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

	 	7.3	 	Protective Provisions. The Participant shall cooperate with the Company by furnishing any
and all information requested by the Deferred Compensation Committee in order to facilitate
the payment of benefits hereunder and by taking such physical examinations and other actions
as the Deferred Compensation Committee may deem necessary and request in connection with the
administration of the Plan. If the Participant refuses to cooperate or makes any material
misstatement or nondisclosure of information, then no benefits will be payable hereunder to
such Participant or his Beneficiary.

	 	7.4	 	Withholding. The Participant or the Beneficiary shall make appropriate arrangements with the
Company for satisfaction of any federal, state or local tax withholding requirements
applicable to the payment of benefits under the Plan. If no such arrangements are made, the
Company may provide, at its discretion, for such withholding and tax payments as may be
required.

ARTICLE 8 — Administration of the Plan

The Deferred Compensation Committee shall administer the Plan and interpret, construe and apply its
provisions in accordance with its terms. The Deferred Compensation Committee shall determine in
its sole discretion those who are eligible to participate in the Plan and shall have the right to
set guidelines for participation under the Plan including, but not limited to, the type, manner and
level of Deferral Commitments. The Deferred Compensation Committee shall further establish, adopt
or revise such other rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or advisable for the
administration of the Plan. All decisions of the Deferred Compensation Committee shall be final
and binding. The individuals serving on the Deferred Compensation Committee shall, except as
prohibited by law, be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any and all liabilities,
costs, and expenses (including legal fees), to the extent not covered by liability insurance,
arising out of any action taken by any member of the Deferred Compensation Committee with respect
to the Plan, unless such liability arises from the individual’s own gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

ARTICLE 9 — Beneficiary Designation

	 	9.1	 	Beneficiary Designation. The Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate any
person or persons as a Beneficiary (both primary and contingent) to whom payment under the
Plan shall be made in the event of the Participant’s death. The Beneficiary designation shall
be effective when it is submitted in writing and delivered to the Deferred Compensation
Committee during the Participant’s lifetime on a form prescribed by the Deferred Compensation
Committee.

	 	9.2	 	New Beneficiary Designation. The Participant shall have the right to change or revoke any
such designation from time to time by filing a new designation or notice of revocation with
the Company, and no notice to any Beneficiary nor consent by any Beneficiary shall be required
to effect any such change or revocation.

	 	9.3	 	Failure to Designate Beneficiary. If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary before
his death, or if no designated Beneficiary survives the Participant, the Deferred Compensation
Committee shall direct the Company to pay the balance of the Participant’s Deferral Account in
a lump sum to the Participant’s surviving spouse, if any, or if there is no surviving spouse,
then to the estate of the Participant; provided, however, in the event payment is to be made
to the Participant’s estate, if no executor or administrator shall have been appointed, and
actual notice of the death was given to the Deferred Compensation Committee within sixty (60)
days after the Participant’s death, and if his Account balance does not exceed ten thousand
dollars ($10,000), the Deferred Compensation Committee may direct the Company to pay the
Deferral Account balance to such person or persons as the Deferred Compensation Committee
determines may be entitled to it, and the Deferred Compensation Committee may require such
proof of right and/or identity of such person or persons as the Deferred Compensation
Committee may deem appropriate and necessary.

ARTICLE 10 — Amendment and Termination of the Plan

	 	10.1	 	Amendment of the Plan. The Company may at any time amend the Plan in whole or in part,
prospectively or retroactively; provided however, that such amendment (i) shall not decrease
the vested balance of any Participant’s Deferral Account at the time of such amendment and
(ii) shall not retroactively change the applicable Crediting Rates of the Plan that were in
effect prior to the time of such amendment. The Company or Deferred Compensation Committee
may amend the Crediting Rates of the Plan prospectively and in that event shall notify the
Participants of such amendment in writing within thirty (30) days of such amendment.

	 	10.2	 	Termination of the Plan. The Company may at any time terminate the Plan as to all or any
group of Participants provided, however, that no payments under the Plan shall be made to the
Participants after any such termination unless and until payment is permissible under Code
Section 409A.

ARTICLE 11 — Miscellaneous

	 	11.1	 	Successors of the Company. The rights and obligations of the Company under the Plan shall
inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the successors and assigns of the Company.

	 	11.2	 	Compliance with Code Section 409A. The Plan is intended to comply with the provisions of
Code Section 409A so as to defer taxation of the amounts deferred hereunder until the time of
payment, and the Plan shall be construed and administered in accordance with this intention.

	 	11.3	 	Gender, Singular and Plural. All pronouns and variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to
the masculine or feminine, as the identity of the person or persons may require. As the
context may require, the singular may be read as the plural and the plural as the singular.

	 	11.4	 	Captions. The captions of the articles and paragraphs of the Plan are for convenience only
and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of its provisions.

	 	11.5	 	Validity. In the event any provision of the Plan is held invalid, void or unenforceable, the
same shall not affect, in any respect whatsoever, the validity of any other provisions of the
Plan.

	 	11.6	 	Waiver of Breach. The waiver by the Company of any breach of any provision of the Plan by
the Participant shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by the
Participant.

	 	11.7	 	Applicable Law. The Plan shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the
Commonwealth of Virginia.

	 	11.8	 	Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Company under the Plan
shall be sufficient if in writing or hand-delivered, or sent by registered or certified mail,
return receipt requested, to the principal office of the Company, directed to the attention of
the Deferred Compensation Committee. Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of
delivery, or if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt
for registration or certification.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Plan to be executed effective as of the 1st day of
January, 2005.

Exhibit 10.26

Technical Olympic USA, Inc.

Annual and Long-Term Incentive Plan

Director Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement

AGREEMENT made as of [insert date of grant], between Technical Olympic USA, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), and      (“Director”).

To carry out the purposes of the Technical Olympic USA, Inc. Annual and Long-Term Incentive
Plan (the “Plan”) and the Policy for Compensation of Outside Directors, by affording Director the
opportunity to purchase shares of common stock, par value $.01, (“Stock”) of Technical Olympic USA,
Inc. (the “Company”) in recognition of Director’s significant duties and responsibilities as a
member of the Company Board of Directors, the Company and Director hereby agree as follows:

1. Grant of Option. The Company hereby irrevocably grants to Director the right and
option (“Option”) to purchase all or any part of an aggregate of      shares of Stock on the
terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, which Plan is incorporated herein by
reference as a part of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this
Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this
Agreement shall have the meaning attributed to such terms under the Plan, unless the context
requires otherwise.

2. Purchase Price. The purchase price per share of Stock purchased pursuant to the
exercise of this Option shall be $     .

3. Exercise of Option. This Option shall vest ratably over a twelve (12) month period
on a monthly basis (i.e., 1/12th of total Option shall vest on each monthly anniversary
of the date hereof). Director may exercise vested Option rights on or after each vesting date in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. This Option may be exercised, by written notice to
the Company at its principal executive office addressed to the attention of its Secretary (or such
other officer or employee of the Company as the Company may designate from time to time), at any
time and from time to time after the date of grant hereof, subject, however, to the following
provisions:

(a) If Director’s membership on the Board of Directors ceases due to death, disability,
incapacity, or in the event of a Change of Control, this Option shall immediately vest in
its entirety and all Option rights may be exercised at any time by Director or Director’s
guardian or legal representative (or by Director’s estate or the person who acquires this
Option by will or the laws of descent and distribution or otherwise by reason of the death
of Director). For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” shall have the meaning
set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto.

(b) If Director’s membership on the Board of Directors ceases due to voluntary
resignation prior to completion of such Director’s then-current elected term, this Option
may be exercised at any time during the 90-day period following such cessation of service by
Director or by Director’s guardian or legal representative (or by Director’s estate or the
person who acquires this Option by will or the laws of descent and distribution or otherwise
by reason of the death of Director if Director dies during such 90-day period), but in each
case only as to the vested number of shares of Stock, if any, that Director was entitled to
purchase hereunder as of the date Director’s membership on the Board of Directors so
terminates.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, there is no minimum or maximum number of shares of
Stock that must be purchased by Director upon exercise of this Option. Instead, Director
may, at any time and from time to time, purchase any number of shares of Stock that are then
vested and exercisable according to the provisions of this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Option shall not be exercisable in any event
after the expiration of 10 years from the date of grant hereof.

The purchase price of the shares of Stock as to which this Option is exercised shall be paid
in full at the time of exercise (a) in cash (including by check acceptable to the Company), (b) if
the shares are readily tradable on a national securities market or exchange, through a “cashless
broker exercise” procedure in accordance with a program established by the Company, or (c) any
combination of the foregoing. No fraction of a share shall be issued by the Company upon exercise
of an Option. Unless and until a certificate or certificates representing such shares shall have
been issued by the Company to Director, Director (or the person permitted to exercise this Option
in the event of Director’s death) shall not be or have any of the rights or privileges of a
shareholder of the Company with respect to shares acquirable upon an exercise of this Option.

4. Withholding of Tax. To the extent that the exercise of this Option or the
disposition of shares acquired by exercise of this Option results in wages to Director for federal,
state or local tax purposes, Director shall deliver to the Company at the time of such exercise or
disposition such amount of money, if any, as the Company may require to meet its minimum
withholding obligations under applicable tax laws or regulations. No exercise of this Option shall
be effective until Director (or the person entitled to exercise this Option, as applicable) has
made arrangements approved by the Company to satisfy all applicable minimum tax withholding
requirements of the Company.

Director agrees that the shares which Director may acquire by exercising this Option will not
be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable
federal or state securities laws. Director also agrees that (i) the certificates representing the
shares purchased under this Option may bear such legend or legends as the Committee deems
appropriate in order to assure compliance with applicable securities laws, (ii) the Company may
refuse to register the transfer of the shares purchased under this Option on the stock transfer
records of the Company if such proposed transfer would in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to
the Company constitute a violation of any applicable securities law, and (iii) the Company may give
related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the
shares purchased under this Option.

5. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Director.

6. Entire Agreement. This Agreement together with the attached Exhibit A constitutes
the entire agreement of the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof, and contains all the
covenants, promises, representations, warranties and agreements between the parties with respect to
the Option granted hereby. Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, all prior
understandings and agreements, if any, among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter
hereof are hereby null and void and of no further force or effect. Any modification of this
Agreement shall be effective only if it is in writing and signed by both Director and an authorized
officer of the Company.

7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be executed by its duly
authorized officer, and Director has executed this Agreement, all effective as of the day and year
first above written.

Exhibit A: Change of Control

1

EXHIBIT A

	 	 	“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events, each of which
shall be determined independently of the others:

(a) any “Person” (as defined below) becomes a “beneficial owner” (as such term is used in Rule
13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of forty percent (40%) or more of the stock of any member
of the Consolidated Group (as defined below) entitled to vote in the election of directors. For
purposes of this Exhibit A, the term “Person” is used as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and
14(d) of the Exchange Act; provided, however that the term shall not include any member of the
Consolidated Group, any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit
plan of any member of the Consolidated Group, or any corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by
the shareholders of any member of the Consolidated Group;

(b) shareholders of any member of the Consolidated Group adopt a plan of complete or
substantial (eighty-five percent (85%) or more) liquidation or an agreement providing for the
distribution of all or substantially all of the assets of such member;

(c) any member of the Consolidated Group is party to a merger, consolidation, other form of
business combination or a sale of all or substantially all (eighty-five percent (85%) or more) of
its assets, unless the business of such member is continued following any such transaction by a
resulting entity (which may be, but need not be, such member) and the shareholders of such member
immediately prior to such transaction (the “Prior Shareholders”) hold, directly or indirectly, at
least forty percent (40%) of the voting power of the resulting entity (there being excluded from
the voting power held by the Prior Shareholders, but not from the total voting power of the
resulting entity, any voting power received by Affiliates of a party to the transaction (other than
such member) in their capacities as shareholders of such member); provided, however, that a merger
or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of such member (or similar transaction)
in which no Person acquires more than thirty percent (30%) of the combined voting power of such
member’s then outstanding securities shall not constitute a Change in Control; or

(d) any member of the Consolidated Group is a subject of a “Rule 13e-3 transaction” as that
term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13e-3, and the first purchase has been made pursuant to such
transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, immediately after the occurrence of any event enumerated
above, the Continuing Directors control the majority of the Board of Directors of the Company (or,
