                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
M.D.C. Holdings, Inc.

    In  our  opinion,  the  consolidated  financial  statements  listed  in  the
accompanying index  present  fairly, in  all  material respects,  the  financial
position  of M.D.C. Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1993 and
1992, and the results of their operations  and their cash flows for each of  the
three  years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally
accepted   accounting   principles.   These   financial   statements   are   the
responsibility  of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these  financial statements  based on  our audits.  We conducted  our
audits  of  these  statements  in accordance  with  generally  accepted auditing
standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain  reasonable
assurance   about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence  supporting
the   amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  financial  statements,  assessing  the
accounting principles used  and significant  estimates made  by management,  and
evaluating  the overall  financial statement  presentation. We  believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

    As discussed in Note K to the financial statements, the Company changed  its
method of accounting for income taxes in 1992.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    PRINCIPLES  OF  CONSOLIDATION.   The  consolidated  financial  statements of
M.D.C. Holdings, Inc. ("MDC" or the  "Company") include the accounts of MDC  and
its  wholly-owned and  majority-owned subsidiaries.  Investments in  50% or less
owned  limited  partnerships,  joint  ventures  and  ownership  interests  ("CMO
Ownership  Interests")  in  collateralized  mortgage  obligation  ("CMO  bonds")
issuances  are  accounted   for  using  the   equity  method.  All   significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

    In  the home building segment of its operations, MDC designs, constructs and
sells residential housing and,  to a lesser extent,  acquires and develops  land
for use in its home building operations and for sale to others.

    MDC's  mortgage lending  operations are  conducted by  HomeAmerican Mortgage
Corporation ("HomeAmerican"), which provides mortgage loans for MDC home  buyers
as  well as for  others. Substantially all  of the mortgage  loans originated by
HomeAmerican, as  well  as  mortgage  loans  purchased  from  unaffiliated  loan
correspondents,  subsequently  are  sold  to  private  investors.  Additionally,
HomeAmerican sells mortgage loan servicing.

    MDC's mortgage-related asset management operations enable MDC to (i)  manage
the  day-to-day operations  of Asset Investors  Corporation ("Asset Investors");
(ii) manage the day-to-day operations  of Commercial Assets, Inc.; (iii)  invest
in CMO Ownership Interests; and (iv) own interests in various other investments.

  HOME BUILDING.

    INVENTORIES.   Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable
value and include interest capitalized  during the period of active  development
and  through the  completion of construction.  Construction-related overhead and
salaries are  capitalized and  allocated  proportionately to  projects  actively
being  developed. Land  and related costs  are transferred  to housing inventory
when construction commences.

    Net realizable value  is based on  the Company's plans  for development  and
build  out of each project using estimated  sales prices less estimated costs to
complete (which includes  interest anticipated to  be capitalized during  active
development)  and sell the project. Net realizable value does not purport, for a
specific project, to represent  the current sales price  that the Company  could
obtain  from third  parties for  such properties  and projects  at their current
stage of development. Management believes  that its assumptions as to  projected
demand  are reasonable based  on present economic  conditions and that financing
will be available to  enable the Company  to realize the  carrying value of  its
home   building  inventories  consistent  with  its  plans  for  build  out  and
development. At  December  31,  1993  and  1992,  inventory  valuation  reserves
totalled $40,829,000 and $47,100,000, respectively.

    REVENUE  AND  PROFIT  RECOGNITION.   Revenues  from  real  estate  sales are
recognized when a sufficient down payment has been received, financing has  been
arranged,  title,  possession  and  other  attributes  of  ownership  have  been
transferred to the buyer and the Company is not obligated to perform significant
additional activities after the sale.

  MORTGAGE LENDING.

    RESTRICTED CASH.  Restricted cash represents cash pledged to support certain
letters of credit.

    MORTGAGE LOANS HELD IN INVENTORY.   The Company generally purchases  forward
commitments  to deliver  mortgage loans  held for  sale. Mortgage  loans held in
inventory are stated at the lower of

                                      F-9

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

A.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
aggregate cost or market based upon  such commitments for loans to be  delivered
into  such  commitments or  prevailing market  for  uncommitted loans.  Gains or
losses on mortgage loans held in inventory are realized when the loans are sold.

    REVENUE RECOGNITION.  Loan origination  fees in excess of origination  costs
incurred and loan commitment fees are deferred until the related loans are sold.
Loan  servicing fees are recorded as revenue when the mortgage loan payments are
received. Revenues from the sale of mortgage loan servicing are recognized  when
title  and all  risks and  rewards of ownership  have irrevocably  passed to the
buyer and there are no significant unresolved contingencies.

  ASSET MANAGEMENT.

    RESTRICTED CASH.   Restricted cash  represents mortgage  loan principal  and
interest receipts held pending distribution to holders of CMO bonds.

    EQUITY  CMO INTERESTS.  MDC  owns a 49.999% ownership  interest in seven CMO
Ownership Interests which are accounted for on the equity method  (collectively,
"Equity   CMO  Interests").  Each  ownership   interest  includes  one  or  more
variable-rate bond  classes for  which the  interest rate  is reset  monthly  or
quarterly  based on  the London interbank  offered rate  ("LIBOR") on Eurodollar
deposits.

    MDC's Equity CMO Interests are carried at the lower of cost or  undiscounted
projected excess cash flow ("Projected Excess Cash Flow"). Projected Excess Cash
Flow  is computed using estimates of  future mortgage principal prepayment rates
and LIBOR, assuming that  the CMO bonds  will be redeemed at  the latter of  the
first  optional redemption date or  the date on which  the Projected Excess Cash
Flow becomes negative. These  estimates of mortgage  prepayment rates and  LIBOR
are  based upon published rates which the Company believes to be reasonable over
the economic life of the CMO Ownership Interests. The amount of Projected Excess
Cash Flow the Company anticipates it will receive from its Equity CMO  Interests
is  uncertain and may be  subject to wide variation  from the actual excess cash
flows received depending primarily  upon the rate and  timing of prepayments  on
the underlying mortgage collateral and changes in LIBOR.

    To  the extent  Projected Excess  Cash Flow  is less  than carrying  cost, a
valuation adjustment  is  recorded.  These  valuation  adjustments  provide  for
estimated  losses  to  be  recognized by  the  related  CMO  Ownership Interests
subsequent to the date  on which the valuation  adjustments were taken, and  the
Company's  share of such  losses have been,  and will in  the future be, charged
against these valuation adjustments as they occur.

    MORTGAGE COLLATERAL AND RELATED ASSETS.  Mortgage Collateral (as defined  in
Note  F) and  other mortgage-related  assets held  for long-term  investment are
recorded at cost (outstanding principal  balance, net of unamortized premium  or
discount).  Mortgage  certificates  are  repaid  through  the  pass  through  of
principal payments from  the mortgage loans  collateralizing these  certificates
or,  in the  event of  default by the  borrower, proceeds  from the  sale of the
underlying property and/or  mortgage insurance  proceeds. Conventional  mortgage
loans collateralizing CMO bonds have private mortgage insurance.

    AMORTIZATION  OF PREMIUMS AND DISCOUNTS.  Premiums and discounts on Mortgage
Collateral and original issue  discounts on CMO bonds  are amortized over  their
respective  estimated  lives  based  upon a  method  which  provides  a constant
effective yield  and assumes  an estimated  principal prepayment  rate which  is
adjusted prospectively for actual experience.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

A.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
  GENERAL.

    CASH  AND  CASH EQUIVALENTS.   The  Company  periodically invests  funds not
immediately  required  for  operating  purposes  in  highly  liquid,  short-term
investments  such  as  commercial  paper  and  repurchase  agreements  which are
included in cash  and cash  equivalents in  the Consolidated  Balance Sheet  and
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

    INVESTMENTS   AND  MARKETABLE   SECURITIES.     Investments  and  marketable
securities consist of (i) investments in marketable preferred shares carried  at
cost,  which approximates  market; and  (ii) other  marketable equity securities
which are carried at market. The marketable preferred shares are readily salable
instruments which will be redeemed pursuant  to their terms within a maximum  of
49  days from acquisition. Dividend income from these investments is recorded as
earned.

    PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT.   Property  and equipment  is carried  at cost  less
accumulated  depreciation  and amortization.  Depreciation and  amortization are
computed using the straight-line method over  the estimated useful lives of  the
related assets.

    INCOME  TAXES.   Effective as  of January 1,  1992, the  Company adopted the
provisions of  Statement of  Financial Accounting  Standards ("SFAS")  No.  109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes," which supersedes SFAS No. 96.

    EARNINGS  PER SHARE.  Earnings per share  is computed by dividing net income
by  the  weighted-average  number  of   common  and  common  equivalent   shares
outstanding. The difference between primary and fully-diluted earnings per share
is not significant for any of the periods presented.

    RECLASSIFICATIONS.    Certain  amounts  in the  1992  and  1991 consolidated
financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 1993 presentation.

B.  INFORMATION ON BUSINESS SEGMENTS (CONTINUED)
    Identifiable  segment  assets  at  December  31,  1993  and  1992   totalled
$484,354,000  and  $420,212,000,  respectively, in  the  home  building segment;
$75,541,000 and  $68,119,000, respectively,  in  the mortgage  lending  segment;
$152,897,000  and $316,149,000,  respectively, in the  asset management segment;
and $76,173,000 and $69,053,000, respectively,  in corporate. These assets,  net
of  intersegment eliminations of  ($12,099,000) and ($14,589,000), respectively,
at  December  31,  1993  and  1992,  totalled  $776,866,000  and   $858,944,000,
respectively.

    Corporate   general  and  administrative  expenses  consist  principally  of
salaries and  other administrative  expenses  which are  not identifiable  to  a
specific  segment.  Transfers between  segments  are recorded  at  cost. Capital
expenditures and  related  depreciation and  amortization  for the  years  ended
December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991 were not material.

C.  PURCHASE OF ASSETS
    In  December  1993, as  part of  the use  of proceeds  in the  1993 Offering
described in  Note  H, the  Company  purchased  from Base  Assets  Trust  ("Base
Assets")  (i)  1,990 shares  (19.9%) of  Richmond Homes,  Inc. I  (the Company's
consolidated affiliate which  conducts substantially all  of the Company's  home
building  activities  in Colorado,  "Richmond Homes")  common stock;  (ii) 1,400
shares of Class A Preferred Stock of Richmond Homes; (iii) a general partnership
interest in Rock Creek Investment  Partnership, a partnership in which  Richmond
Homes  is  also a  partner; and  (iv) 2,560,866  shares of  Common Stock  of MDC
(collectively, the "Base Assets Purchase Securities").

    MDC paid $16,038,000 in cash for all of the Base Assets Purchase  Securities
other  than the shares  of Common Stock  of MDC. The  consideration paid for the
Base Assets Purchase Securities, other than  the shares of Common Stock of  MDC,
was  allocated to  the assets received  to the  extent of their  fair value. The
consideration paid in excess of  the fair value was accounted  for as a part  of
the reacquisition price of the Restructured Notes Payable which were repurchased
in related transactions. See Note H. The per share purchase price for the shares
of MDC Common Stock was approximately $5.93 which was based on closing prices of
the  Company's Common Stock reported on the  New York Stock Exchange for certain
trading days preceding the closing date of the 1993 Offering. Upon completion of
the purchase by MDC of the Base Assets Purchase Securities, MDC owned 65% of the
outstanding Richmond Homes common stock and 100% of the Richmond Homes preferred
stock outstanding at December 31, 1993.

    On February  2, 1994,  MDC acquired  the remaining  35% of  the  outstanding
shares  of Richmond Homes common stock which was owned by Messrs. Larry A. Mizel
(Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company) and David  D.
Mandarich  (Executive Vice President -- Real Estate of the Company). In exchange
for these shares  of Richmond Homes  common stock, Messrs.  Mizel and  Mandarich
were  issued  an aggregate  of  608,695 shares  of Common  Stock  of MDC.  As of
February 2, 1994, MDC owns 100% of the equity of Richmond Homes.

F.  MORTGAGE COLLATERAL AND RELATED ASSETS AND CMO BONDS AND RELATED LIABILITIES
    CMO   bonds  consist   of  borrowings  from   mortgage-backed  bond  issuers
(representing portions of the net  proceeds of CMO bonds)  as well as CMO  bonds
issued by the asset management segment and other non-related entities. CMO bonds
are  collateralized by mortgage  loans and investments  in mortgage certificates
guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") and mortgage
certificates issued and guaranteed by the Federal National Mortgage  Association
("FNMA")  (such  mortgage loans  and  mortgage certificates  collateralizing CMO
bonds collectively  are referred  to as  "Mortgage Collateral").  Principal  and
interest  payments on  CMO bonds are  payable only  from the cash  flow from the
Mortgage Collateral plus  any reinvestment  income earned (cash  flows from  the
Mortgage  Collateral  are reinvested  until the  next payment  date of  such CMO
bonds). MDC and its  other subsidiaries and affiliates  are not guarantors,  nor
are they otherwise obligated, with respect to such CMO bonds. The cash flow from
the  Mortgage  Collateral relating  to each  CMO  issuance and  the reinvestment
income thereon are held by a  trustee prior to making distributions required  by
the  related indenture. Each CMO issuance is redeemable prior to stated maturity
at the option of the issuer thereof, pursuant to the terms of related indenture.

</TABLE>

    The  weighted-average  effective  yield  on  the  Mortgage  Collateral   was
approximately  9.9% at December 31, 1993 and 1992. CMO bonds mature through 2019
and bear interest at weighted-average rates of 10.0% and 10.5%, respectively, at
December 31, 1993 and 1992.

    The timing of principal payments on CMO bonds is uncertain and is  dependent
on  the regular principal payments and  prepayments of principal on the Mortgage
Collateral and the adequacy of both the reserve funds and the remaining coverage
under the primary  blanket mortgage  insurance policies.  Prepayment rates  will
vary widely depending on long-term mortgage interest rates.

    In  1993, MDC sold, at a premium, Mortgage Collateral totalling $44,735,000.
The proceeds  from these  sales were  utilized  to redeem  in full  the  related
outstanding   CMO  bonds  which  totalled   $44,375,000.  These  sales,  net  of
redemptions, resulted in pre-tax gains totalling $2,129,000.

    In 1992, MDC sold, at a premium, Mortgage Collateral totalling  $73,345,000.
The  proceeds  from these  sales were  utilized  to redeem  in full  the related
outstanding CMO bonds  which totalled  $74,021,000. Additionally,  in 1992,  the
Company  sold, at  a premium, Mortgage  Collateral and  related assets totalling
$92,305,000 subject to the related  CMO bonds and related liabilities  totalling
$91,300,000. The above sales resulted in pre-tax gains totalling $8,169,000. The
redemption   of  the  $74,021,000   of  CMO  bonds   resulted  in  an  aggregate
extraordinary loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $2,851,000, net of  an
income tax benefit of $1,469,000.

G.  LINES OF CREDIT

    HOME  BUILDING.  The aggregate  amount of MDC's home  building bank lines of
credit at December 31,  1993 was $65,000,000.  Available borrowings under  these
bank  lines of  credit are collateralized  by home building  inventories and are
limited to  the  value  of  "eligible collateral"  (as  defined  in  the  credit
agreements).  At December 31,  1993, $24,645,000 was  borrowed and an additional
$35,418,000 was collateralized  and available  to be borrowed.  At December  31,
1993, the weighted-average interest rate of the lines of credit was 7.0%.

G.  LINES OF CREDIT (CONTINUED)
    MORTGAGE  LENDING.   The  aggregate  amount available  under  MDC's mortgage
lending bank line  of credit at  December 31, 1993,  was $75,000,000.  Available
borrowings  under this bank line of  credit are collateralized by mortgage loans
and mortgage-backed  certificates and  are  limited to  the value  of  "eligible
collateral"  (as  defined  in  the  credit  agreement).  At  December  31, 1993,
$29,500,000 was borrowed  and an additional  $21,631,000 was collateralized  and
available  to be  borrowed. The mortgage  lending line of  credit is cancellable
upon 90 days' notice. At December  31, 1993, the weighted-average interest  rate
of the line was 2.6%.

    GENERAL.   The  agreements for  the Company's  bank lines  of credit include
representations, warranties and covenants, the most restrictive of which require
that (i) the Company maintain certain financial ratios and minimum stockholders'
equity of $140,000,000;  (ii) no  proceedings exist  which may  have a  material
adverse  effect on the Company; and (iii) there be no material adverse change in
the financial condition of the Company which would impair the Company's  ability
to repay loans.

    In  December  1993, the  Company completed  a  private placement  (the "1993
Offering") of $190,000,000  principal amount of  11 1/8% Senior  Notes due  2003
(the  "Senior Notes")  and $28,000,000  principal amount  of 8  3/4% Convertible
Subordinated Notes due 2005 (the  "Convertible Subordinated Notes"). The  Senior
Notes were sold at 98.525% of par value. The Convertible Subordinated Notes were
sold  at  par value  and are  convertible into  MDC Common  Stock at  an initial
conversion price of $7.75 per share, subject to adjustment upon certain  events.
A  portion  of the  proceeds of  the 1993  Offering was  utilized to  redeem the
11 1/4% senior subordinated  notes due May  1996 at par  value, resulting in  an
extraordinary  loss on the early  extinguishment of debt of  $855,000, net of an
income tax benefit of $538,000.

    The Senior Notes are guaranteed, fully and unconditionally, and jointly  and
severally  on an unsecured subordinated basis  (the "Guaranties") by most of the
Company's home building segment subsidiaries (the "Guarantors"). The  Guaranties
are  subordinated  to  all  Guarantor  Senior  Indebtedness  as  defined  in the
indenture pursuant  to which  the Senior  Notes are  issued (the  "Senior  Notes

Indenture").  In  addition, the  Senior Notes  are secured  by a  first priority
pledge of the capital stock of most of the Guarantors plus the capital stock  of
HomeAmerican. The Senior Notes Indenture contains certain covenants which, among
other  things, limit (i) the incurrence  of additional Indebtedness (as defined)
by the Company  and Restricted Subsidiaries  (as defined); (ii)  the payment  of
dividends;  (iii) the repurchase of  capital stock or subordinated indebtedness;
(iv) the making of certain other  distributions, loans and investments; (v)  the
ability  to create certain Liens (as defined); (vi) the creation of restrictions
on the ability of the Restricted  Subsidiaries to make payments to the  Company;
and (vii) the ability to enter into transactions with Affiliates (as defined) or
merge,  consolidate  or  transfer  substantially  all  of  the  Company's  or  a
Guarantor's assets. At December 31, 1993, the Company was in compliance with all
covenants.

    The Company, as of April 1, 1993, exchanged its $10,230,000 principal amount
subordinated exchangeable  variable-rate  notes  due  July  1994  for  five-year
subordinated  fixed-rate notes.  The new notes  bear interest  at 6.64%, payable
quarterly, and mature on April 1,  1998. The Company also redeemed its  $355,000
principal  amount 10 1/2% subordinated notes due  April 1995 at par on March 31,
1993.  On  April  15,  1993,  the  Company's  7%  subordinated  notes  totalling
$1,355,000 matured and were paid in full.

    During   1991,  MDC   repurchased  $21,850,000   principal  amount   of  its
Subordinated Notes, resulting in extraordinary gains on the early extinguishment
of debt of $9,479,000, net of income taxes of $4,696,000.

    RESTRUCTURED NOTES  PAYABLE.   All of  the restructured  notes payable  (the
"Restructured  Notes Payable")  outstanding were  repurchased by  the Company in
December 1993 and  January 1994 with  a portion  of the proceeds  from the  1993
Offering. The consideration paid for the Restructured Notes Payable plus certain
reacquisition costs described in Note C resulted in an extraordinary gain on the
early extinguishment of debt of $16,708,000, net of income taxes of $10,526,000.

    Beginning  January 1, 1992,  interest was payable  on the Restructured Notes
Payable on a quarterly basis based upon the number of home sales closed by MDC's
home building segment ($1,750 of interest per home sale closed up to 3,000 in  a
year and $2,500 of interest for each additional home sale closed in such year).

    OTHER  NOTES PAYABLE.   Notes payable  other than the  notes discussed above
consist principally of loans collateralized by real estate, mortgage loans and a
building. These notes bear interest at rates ranging from 7.0% to 10.5%.

    GENERAL.  The aggregate net carrying value of the assets collateralizing all
of the aforementioned debt totalled  approximately $140,000,000 at December  31,
1993.

I.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

  STOCK OPTIONS.

    In April 1993, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted incentive plans
(the  "Plans") to  replace the  1983 Incentive  Stock Option  Plan and  the 1983
Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, each of  which expired in January 1993. At  the
Annual  Meeting of Stockholders held  June 18, 1993, the  Plans were approved. A
summary of the Plans follows:

    EMPLOYEE EQUITY INCENTIVE  PLAN.   The Employee Equity  Incentive Plan  (the
"Employee  Plan") provides for  an initial authorization  of 2,100,000 shares of
Common Stock for  issuance thereunder  plus an  additional annual  authorization
equal  to 10% of the  then authorized shares of  Common Stock under the Employee
Plan as  of each  succeeding annual  anniversary of  the effective  date of  the
Employee  Plan.  Under  the  Employee  Plan, the  Company  may  grant  awards of
restricted  stock,  incentive  and  non-statutory  stock  options  and  dividend
equivalents,  or  any  combination thereof,  to  officers and  employees  of the
Company or any of  its subsidiaries. The incentive  stock options granted  under
this plan are exercisable at prices greater than or equal to the market value on
the date of grant over periods of up to six years. Non-statutory options granted
under  this plan  have discretionary  exercise prices  and are  exercisable over
periods of up to six years.

    DIRECTOR EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN.   Under the  Director Equity Incentive  Plan
(the "Director Plan"), non-employee directors of the Company will be entitled to
receive  stock options. The Director Plan  provides for an initial authorization
of 300,000 shares  of Common Stock  for issuance thereunder  plus an  additional
annual  authorization of shares  equal to 10%  of the then  authorized shares of
Common Stock under  the Director Plan.  Each option granted  under the  Director
Plan  will expire five years  from the date of  grant. The option exercise price
must be equal to 100% of the fair  market value of the Common Stock on the  date
of grant of the option.

    A  summary of the  changes in options  during each of  the three years ended
December 31, 1993 is as follows (in shares of MDC Common Stock):

$461,000 from the valuation allowance at January 1, 1992 of $3,400,000.

    M.D.C.  Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries file a consolidated
federal income tax return (the "MDC Consolidated Return"). Richmond Homes  filed
(or  will file) separate consolidated federal income tax returns for the periods
from  December  28,  1989  through   February  2,  1994  (the  "Richmond   Homes
Consolidated Returns").

    The  Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS")  has completed its examinations of
the MDC Consolidated Returns  for the years 1984  through 1987 and has  proposed
certain adjustments to the taxable income reflected in such returns. The Company
currently  is  protesting many  of these  proposed  adjustments through  the IRS
appeals process  and believes  that  the amount  of  these adjustments  will  be
reduced  as a result. In the opinion  of management, adequate provision has been
made for additional income taxes and interest which may arise as a result of the
proposed adjustments.

    The IRS currently is  examining the MDC Consolidated  Returns for the  years
1988 through 1990 and the Richmond Homes Consolidated Returns for the years 1989
and  1990.  No reports  have been  issued by  the IRS  in connection  with these
examinations. In the opinion of management, adequate provision has been made for
additional income  taxes and  interest which  may  arise as  a result  of  these
examinations.

L.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

  SETTLEMENT OF WESTERN SAVINGS CIVIL MATTERS.

    In  December 1993, the  Resolution Trust Corporation  (the "RTC"), acting in
its corporate capacity and as receiver for Western Savings and Loan  Association
("Western"), gave its final administrative approval to an agreement-in-principle
executed  between  MDC  and  the  RTC in  February  1993  which  provides  for a
settlement and mutual release of all potential civil claims between the  parties
and  related persons  relating to  any of  the Company's  past transactions with
Western.

    Under the terms of the approved agreement-in-principle, MDC would (i) pay to
the RTC approximately $3,700,000 in cash plus certain interest thereon; and (ii)
release its related potential claims against the RTC and Western. MDC had  fully
reserved for this settlement as of December 31, 1992 and does not anticipate any
adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial position. The settlement
remains  subject to the negotiation of formal settlement documents acceptable to
both MDC and the RTC and a court order determining that the settlement precludes
the filing of cross-claims against MDC by various third parties.

  THRIFT INDUSTRY INVESTIGATIONS.

    The Company understands that investigations  are being conducted by  Federal
grand  juries and other government agencies in various states with regard to the
failures of a number of thrifts with which MDC had business transactions  during
the  period 1983 through mid-1988. The  Company and its affiliates have received
and responded to  subpoenas requesting documents  and information in  connection
with  certain investigations and may in  the future receive additional inquiries
or subpoenas. No indictments or charges have been brought against the Company or
any of its officials by any grand jury investigating the failure of any  savings
and  loan institutions. Although the Company believes  there is no basis for the
imposition of  criminal or  civil liability  in connection  therewith, were  any
indictment  or  charge to  be  brought against  the  Company, there  could  be a
material adverse effect upon the Company's financial position and liquidity.

  OTHER.

    The Company and certain of its  subsidiaries and affiliates have been  named
as  defendants in various other claims,  complaints and legal actions arising in
the normal course  of business.  In the opinion  of management,  the outcome  of
these  matters  will  not have  a  material  adverse effect  upon  the financial
condition of the Company.

M. DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
    The following methods and assumptions were  used to estimate the fair  value
of  each class of financial instruments for  which it is practicable to estimate
that value.

    CASH AND CASH  EQUIVALENTS.   For cash  and cash  equivalents, the  carrying
value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

    INVESTMENTS  AND  MARKETABLE  SECURITIES, NET.    Investments  in marketable
equity securities are carried on the balance sheet at market value.

    INVESTMENT IN  METROPOLITAN DISTRICT  BONDS.   Investments  in  metropolitan
district  bonds are  carried on  the balance  sheet at  cost, which approximates
market value. Accordingly, the carrying value of the investments is a reasonable
estimate of the fair value.

    MORTGAGE LOANS HELD IN INVENTORY.   The Company generally purchases  forward
commitments  to deliver mortgage  loans held for  sale. For loans  which have no
forward commitments, loans held in inventory are stated at market.  Accordingly,
the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

M. DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
    MORTGAGE   COLLATERAL  AND  RELATED   ASSETS  AND  CMO   BONDS  AND  RELATED
LIABILITIES.  Mortgage Collateral and related assets which are estimated not  to
be  salable (under  terms in  indentures governing  the CMO  Ownership Interest)
within one year are valued at par plus (minus) the discounted estimated value of
the remaining cash flow  (cash deficit) to  be realized (paid)  by MDC over  the
remaining economic life of the CMO Ownership Interest.

    Mortgage  Collateral and  related assets which  are estimated  to be salable
(under terms  in indentures  governing the  CMO Ownership  Interest) within  one
year,  at a profit or to  minimize a loss, are valued  at the estimated value of
the Mortgage  Collateral  (less any  costs  necessary  to effect  the  sale  and
subsequent  call of the related CMO bonds) plus (minus) the discounted estimated
value of the remaining  cash flow (cash  deficit) to be  realized (paid) by  MDC
from December 31, 1993 to the date of estimated sale.

    CMO  bonds and  related liabilities are  valued at call  or settlement value
(generally face value).

    The cash flow estimates used in determining the fair value for the  Mortgage
Collateral  and  related assets  assume  the liquidation  of  the CMO  bonds and
related liabilities at call or settlement dates.

    EQUITY CMO  INTERESTS.    Equity  CMO Interests  are  valued  at  discounted
estimates  of  projected  excess  cash  flow  determined  under  assumptions for
prepayment speeds,  LIBOR  and discount  rates  consistent with  those  used  by
traders of residual interests in valuing similar instruments.

    INVESTMENT  IN CMO BOND.  Investment in the CMO Bond is valued at discounted
estimates of  projected  excess  cash  flow  determined  under  assumptions  for
prepayment  speeds,  LIBOR  and discount  rates  consistent with  those  used by
traders of residual interests in valuing similar instruments.

    NOTES PAYABLE AND LINES OF CREDIT.  The Company's notes payable and lines of
credit are at floating rates or at fixed rates which approximate current  market
rates and have relatively short-term maturities. Accordingly, the carrying value
is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

    RESTRUCTURED  NOTES PAYABLE.   Cash flows related  to the Restructured Notes
Payable were contingent on home  sales closed each year  by the Company and  the
sale  of certain lots in Colorado. The  Company could not accurately predict for
the next eight years all of the factors which would have impacted principal  and
interest  payments under the Restructured  Notes Payable, including, among other
factors, (i) the levels of activity in the national or regional housing markets;
(ii) the number of home closings the  Company would achieve each year; or  (iii)
which specific lots would be sold. These uncertainties, among other things, made
it  difficult to determine reasonable  approximate yearly principal and interest
payments on the Restructured Notes Payable and to determine an appropriate  rate
at  which to discount such principal and interest payments from the Restructured
Notes Payable. Accordingly, the Company  concluded that the determination of  an
estimate  of  the  fair  value  of  these  Restructured  Notes  Payable  was not
practicable.

    As discussed  in  Note  H,  all  of  the  Restructured  Notes  Payable  were
repurchased  by the Company in  December 1993 and January  1994 at a discount to
carrying value, resulting in an  extraordinary gain on the early  extinguishment
of debt of $16,708,000, net of income taxes of $10,526,000.

    SENIOR  NOTES AND SUBORDINATED  NOTES.  Senior  Notes and Subordinated Notes
are valued based on dealer quotes.

N.  COMMITMENTS
    To  reduce exposure  to fluctuations  in interest  rates, HomeAmerican makes
commitments to originate (buy) and sell loans and mortgage-backed securities. At
December 31,  1993,  commitments by  HomeAmerican  to originate  mortgage  loans
totalled  $34,243,000  at  market  rates  of  interest.  At  December  31, 1993,
unexpired forward commitments to sell loans totalled $75,610,000.

    MDC leases office space, equipment and certain of its model show homes under
noncancellable operating leases. Future minimum rental payments for leases  with
initial  terms in excess of one year are $2,824,000 in 1994; $1,916,000 in 1995;
$1,381,000 in 1996; $719,000 in 1997; $494,000 in 1998 and $122,000  thereafter.
Rent  expense was $2,956,000, $2,731,000 and  $2,952,000 in 1993, 1992 and 1991,
respectively.

purposes of the supplemental information.

in 1993, 1992 and 1991.

    MDC pays  costs  associated with  litigation  and other  significant  claims

expense.  Amounts  paid  by  MDC  on  behalf  of  the  Guarantors  amounted   to
approximately  $3,481,000,  $1,620,000, and  $1,475,000, respectively,  in 1993,

liabilities  of  the  wholly-owned  Guarantors  are  reported  in  the financial
statements  in  the  Advances  and   notes  receivable/payable  --  Parent   and

P.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
    MDC  has transacted business with affiliated companies, certain officers and
directors of the Company.

    MDC has agreements with Asset Investors and Commercial Assets to advise them
on various facets of  their business and to  manage their day-to-day  operations
subject  to the supervision of their  respective boards of directors. MDC earned
management fees and administration fees from these agreements which are included
in asset management  revenues of $597,000  and $1,583,000, respectively,  during
1993,  $1,001,000 and $1,565,000,  respectively, during 1992  and $7,353,000 and
$1,348,000, respectively, during 1991.

    The Company  acquired certain  assets from  Messrs. Mizel  and Mandarich  in
February 1994. See Note C.

    On  December 28, 1989, MDC  granted loans to Messrs.  Mizel and Mandarich to
purchase shares of common  stock of Richmond Homes.  The loans, which mature  in
1999,  bear interest at  8.0% and are  unsecured. At both  December 31, 1993 and
1992, $840,000 of such  loans were outstanding. Interest  income of $67,000  was
recognized on these loans in each of 1993, 1992 and 1991.

    The Company utilizes the services of companies owned by two former employees
of  the Company, one of  whom is the brother-in-law of  a current officer of the
Company. During 1993, 1992  and 1991, the  Company paid $11,557,000,  $9,268,000
and  $8,228,000, respectively, for plumbing, door and millwork services provided
by these companies.

    The Company leases office  space and furniture  to certain organizations  in
which  certain  officers  and/or  directors of  the  Company  have  an ownership
interest. The rental revenue from  those leases totalled $259,000, $200,000  and
$156,000, respectively, in 1993, 1992 and 1991.

P.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)
    The  Company utilizes in the  ordinary course of business  the services of a
marketing and communications  firm which is  owned by the  brother-in-law of  an
officer  and  director  of the  Company.  Total  fees paid  for  advertising and
marketing design services were $246,000, $134,000 and $205,000, respectively, in
1993, 1992 and 1991.

Q.  DISPOSITIONS
    During the  third  quarter  of  1991, MDC,  in  two  separate  transactions,
transferred  rental properties which collateralized  an aggregate of $23,132,000
principal amount of non-recourse  notes to the RTC.  The non-recourse notes  had
been  sold  during 1988  to Western  Savings.  The RTC  took control  of Western
Savings in June 1989. As part of the agreement between MDC and the RTC,  certain
guaranties  entered into between  MDC and Western Savings  with respect to these
and other loans sold to Western Savings  during 1988 and 1989 were settled,  and
the  mortgage  loan  servicing rights  for  certain mortgage  loans  serviced by
HomeAmerican on behalf of the RTC were transferred to the RTC. The transactions,
among other  things, required  a net  cash  payment of  $1,123,000 to  the  RTC.
HomeAmerican recognized an $800,000 pre-tax gain on the transfer of the mortgage
loan servicing rights and MDC recorded (i) a $500,000 asset valuation reserve on
the   rental  properties;   and  (ii)  an   extraordinary  gain   on  the  early
extinguishment of  debt (i.e.,  the non-recourse  notes) of  $5,330,000, net  of
income taxes of $2,933,000.

    In  December 1991, MDC deeded (i.e., abandoned) $8,762,000 carrying value of
inactive land inventories located in Virginia, which collateralized a $7,895,000
principal amount non-recourse note  payable and additional related  liabilities,
to the note holder.

      such  shares to any person other than  himself, members of his family or a
      creditor. Mr. Mizel disclaims beneficial ownership of the 194,032 shares.

initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock
and other equity  securities of  the Company  with the  Securities and  Exchange
Commission and the New York and Pacific Stock Exchanges. Copies of those reports
also  must be furnished to the Company. Based solely upon a review of the copies
of reports furnished to  the Company and written  representations that no  other
reports  were required, the Company believes that during the year ended December
31, 1993, except as set forth below,  all required reports have been filed.  One
report for Mr. Mizel reporting the acquisition of Common Stock in August 1993 by
Mr.  Mizel's  wife  and  her  sister  and  brother  as  joint  tenants  upon the
termination of a trust of which such joint tenants were beneficiaries was  filed

shares. Three reports reporting nine transactions by Mr. Kemper were filed late.
All other reports were filed timely.

(1)   In  1989, the Company entered into a consulting agreement (the "Consulting
      Agreement") with Mr. Mandarich.  During the two  years ended December  31,
      1992  and through March 1993, Mr. Mandarich  served as a consultant to the
      Company. The Consulting  Agreement, with  an original  expiration date  of
      December  31, 1991, provided,  among other things, for  (i) the Company to
      pay Mr. Mandarich a  fee for such  services of $40,000  per month (a  rate
      equal to his former salary), which subsequently was reduced to $36,000 per
      month  effective January 1, 1991;  (ii) the payment of  an annual bonus to
      Mr. Mandarich in  an amount  to be determined  by the  Company's Board  of
      Directors;  (iii)  the grant  of a  five-year  option to  purchase 250,000
      shares of Common Stock at a price of $2.75 per share; and (iv) a severance
      benefit of  $480,000 upon  the first  to occur  of the  expiration of  the
      Consulting  Agreement or  the termination  (without cause)  of consultancy
      services thereunder. In  addition, the Consulting  Agreement provided  for
      certain indemnification and death and disability benefits. The Company and
      Mr.  Mandarich orally agreed  to extend the  consulting arrangement on the
      same terms as  set forth  in the  Consulting Agreement  from January  1992
      until  April 1993, at which time  Mr. Mandarich was elected Executive Vice
      President --  Real  Estate  of  the  Company.  The  Consulting  Agreement,
      together  with the  specific severance  arrangement provided  therein, was
      terminated in connection  with this election.  Richmond Homes paid  $9,000
      and  $112,500 of  Mr. Mandarich's fees  and bonus,  respectively, in 1991;
      $216,000 and $125,000 of  his fees and bonus,  respectively, in 1992;  and
      $216,000  and $150,000  of his fees  and bonus, respectively,  in 1993 for
      services rendered to Richmond Homes during these periods.

ACT  THAT MIGHT INCORPORATE FUTURE  FILINGS, IN WHOLE OR  IN PART, THE FOLLOWING
REPORT AND THE PERFORMANCE  GRAPHS SHALL NOT BE  INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE  INTO
ANY SUCH FILING.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

    The  Compensation Committee of  the Board of  Directors (the "Committee") of
the Company is comprised solely of non-employee directors and is responsible for
setting executive compensation policies and determining the compensation paid to
executive officers of the Company.

    The Company's executive  compensation programs  are intended  to enable  the
Company   to  attract,  retain  and  reward  highly-qualified  executives  while
maintaining a  strong  and direct  link  between executive  pay,  the  Company's
financial  performance and total shareowner  return. The Committee believes that
officers and certain other key employees should have a significant stake in  the
Company's   stock  price   performance  under  programs   which  link  executive
compensation to shareowner return.

    There are three main components of the executive compensation program at the
Company: base salaries, annual bonuses and stock-based long-term incentives. The
Committee believes that the Company has a highly-experienced executive team  and
that  success in its principal  markets has the potential  to make the Company a
target for other companies seeking proven executives. Furthermore, the Company's
management philosophy  calls for  maintaining relatively  few middle  management
employees  in order to speed decision making and to operate more efficiently. As
a result of this  philosophy, in recent years,  base salaries for the  Company's
executive  officers have  been targeted  at or above  the average  rates paid by
competitors to enable the Company to retain its skilled executives. Nonetheless,
the Committee believes,  based upon  the studies  of a  major independent  human
resources  consulting firm retained by the Committee, that the Company's overall
management costs are lower than other, similarly-sized companies. Base  salaries
are  reviewed annually and are adjusted based on individual performance, average
salary increases in  the industry and  the going rate  for similar positions  at
comparable  companies. The Chief  Executive Officer received  no salary increase
during 1993 or 1992. It  should also be noted that  Mr. Mandarich earned 50%  of
his compensation for 1993 as Chairman of the Board of Richmond Homes.

    The Company maintains an annual bonus program under which executive officers
and  other key management  employees have the opportunity  to earn cash bonuses.
The bonus  program  is  intended  to motivate  and  reward  officers  and  other
employees  for the attainment of the Company's annual profit and other financial
performance goals,  as  determined by  the  Committee. Largely  in  response  to

                                       8
<PAGE>
   
difficult  economic conditions in  its principal markets in  the late 1980's and
early 1990's as compounded by threatened litigation arising from the failures of
a number of thrift institutions with which the Company had dealings, the Company
engaged in a major  restructuring program which was  largely completed in  1991.
The  Company built on the results of this restructuring in returning the Company
to profitability through  a number of  major accomplishments in  1992 and  1993,
culminating  with  the completion  of a  $218 million  private debt  offering in
December 1993,  which have  greatly  enhanced the  Company's balance  sheet  and
financial  flexibility. In  order to meet  the Company's  objectives during this
period, in  addition to  the  consideration of  the Company's  actual  financial
performance  in  comparison to  its budgeted  goals,  the Committee  has weighed
heavily the executive officers' specific contributions to these  accomplishments
as  a factor in determining  the amount of cash  bonuses. With the restructuring
completed and a  substantially strengthened  operation in  place, the  Committee
intends to place primary emphasis on key financial measures, primarily operating
income,  and the performance of each executive officer in his particular area of
executive responsibility in  determining future  annual cash  bonus amounts  for
such executive officers.
    

   
    In  April 1994, the  Committee adopted, subject  to shareowner approval, the
M.D.C. Holdings, Inc. Executive Officer Performance-Based Compensation Plan  for
years  beginning in 1995, although  the performance-based objectives outlined in
this plan may  be utilized as  a guide  for determining cash  bonus amounts  for
certain executive officers in 1994. This plan is designed to (i) provide Messrs.
Mizel,  Browne  and  Mandarich,  the Company's  most  senior  executives, annual
incentive compensation based on  achievement of specific performance  objectives
linked  to shareowner return; and (ii)  meet the requirements for exemption from
limits on the ability of the Company to deduct executive compensation.
    

    It is  the  Committee's practice  periodically  to grant  stock  options  to
executive  officers and other  key management employees.  The Committee believes
that stock options serve to link closely management and shareowner interests and
motivate executives to make long-term decisions and investments that will  serve
to  increase the long-term total return  to shareowners. Vesting provisions also
serve to provide long-term incentives  to retain key executive officers.  Awards
of  stock  options for  executive officers  are intended  to be  consistent with
competitive practice,  with  the  ultimate  value  received  by  option  holders
directly linked to increases in the Company's stock price. When making grants of
stock  options, the  Committee also considers  financial performance, shareowner
dilution and past grant practices.

CEO COMPENSATION

   
    Mr. Mizel's compensation  has been  determined according  to the  principles
described  above. Mr. Mizel's salary for 1993 was $540,000 which was the same as
in 1992 and 1991.  The Compensation Committee approved  a bonus of $300,000  for
Mr.  Mizel for 1993,  which was based  upon the following  factors: (i) the fact
that Mr.  Mizel has  not had  a salary  increase in  six years  (his salary  was
decreased  by $60,000 per year  in 1991); (ii) the  successful completion of the
Company's private  placement of  debt and  the resulting  simplification of  the
Company's  capital structure; and (iii) the Company's improved financial results
for 1993 relative to both the  Company's 1992 financial results and  projections
in  its 1993 business  plan. The Compensation Committee  also granted options to
acquire 350,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock to Mr. Mizel in 1993.  This
grant  was made pursuant to the  Compensation Committee's objectives to increase
the link between management's incentives and shareowner value. All options  were
granted at exercise prices at or above the fair market value of the Common Stock
on the date of grant.

    Set  forth below is  a graph comparing  the yearly change  in the cumulative
total return  of  the Common  Stock  with the  cumulative  total return  of  the
Standard  &  Poor's 500  Stock Index  and with  that  of a  peer group  over the
five-year period ending on December 31, 1993. During 1988, the Company initiated
a major restructuring of its operations which was largely completed in 1991.  To
reflect  the results  of these  restructuring efforts,  a second  graph has been
provided which compares the yearly change in the cumulative total return of  the
Common Stock with the cumulative total return of the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock
Index and with that of the peer group for the three years following December 31,
1990.  It is  assumed in  the graphs that  $100 was  invested (i)  in the Common
Stock; (ii) in the stock  of the companies in the  Standard & Poor's 500  Index;
and  (iii)  in  the  stocks  of  the peer  group  companies  just  prior  to the
commencement of the period  (December 31, 1988 in  the first graph and  December
31,  1990 in the second graph) and  that all dividends received within a quarter
were reinvested  in  that quarter.  The  peer group  index  is composed  of  the
following  peer  companies:  Centex  Corporation,  PHM  Corporation,  U.S.  Home
Corporation, Standard  Pacific Corp.,  The Ryland  Group, Inc.,  Toll  Brothers,
Inc.,  Kaufman and  Broad Home  Corporation, J.M.  Peters Company,  Inc., Lennar

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

    The principal offices  of the  Company are located  in approximately  69,900
square  feet in a building  owned by the Company.  OMNIBANCORP, of which certain
officers  and/or  directors  of  the  Company  are  officers,  directors  and/or
shareowners  (including Larry A. Mizel, who is the Chairman of the Board and the
largest shareholder of  both the Company  and OMNIBANCORP), is  a tenant of  the
building.  OMNIBANCORP leases approximately  16,200 square feet  in the building
for which  it  paid rent,  including  for parking,  of  approximately  $236,500,
including retroactive rent adjustments, in 1993. The lease, which expires on May
31,  1995, provides OMNIBANCORP with  the right to renew the  lease for up to 18
successive five-year periods at the lower of the current lease rate or a "market
value rental rate" (as defined in the lease). Approximately 5,300 square feet in
the building  is  leased by  various  affiliates of  Mr.  Mizel for  which  they
collectively paid rent, including for parking, of approximately $22,500 in 1993.

                                       12
<PAGE>
    The  Company and certain  of its subsidiaries  maintain accounts in Omnibank
Southeast, which is located  in the same building  as the Company. During  1993,
Messrs.  Mizel and Kemper  were officers and/or  directors and shareholders, and
Messrs. Browne  and Goldstein  were shareholders,  of OMNIBANCORP,  the  holding
company which owns Omnibank Southeast.

    The  Company provides a self-funded  contributory medical plan (the "Medical
Plan") for  its  eligible employees  through  Pacific Mutual  Insurance  Company
("Pacific  Mutual"). The Company also permits  participation in the Medical Plan
by Mr. Kemper.  Prior to April  1, 1993, several  employees (such employees  are
herein  referred to as "Affiliate Participants") of two entities affiliated with
Mr. Mizel (Woodhaven Management Company Limited Liability Company, which is  90%
owned by LaM Financial Holdings, Ltd., a limited partnership in which CVentures,
Inc.  is  the general  partner, and  CVentures, Inc.)  also participated  in the
Medical Plan. Under the  Medical Plan's funding  arrangement, the Company  makes
payments to a trust in order to provide funds for the future payments of medical
claims.  Funds are transferred  weekly by the trust  to reimburse Pacific Mutual
for the amount of claims paid. The Company maintains reinsurance up to an annual
stop loss  limit of  $100,000 on  any  one participant's  claims and  an  annual
aggregate  stop loss limit of 125% of  the total expected claims for the Medical
Plan. Covered employees share the required  Medical Plan premium costs with  the
Company  through semi-monthly payroll deductions, whereas Mr. Kemper contributes
(and, prior to April  1, 1993, the Affiliate  Participants contributed) 100%  of
the  required  premiums. Premiums  paid by  the  Affiliate Participants  and Mr.
Kemper for  the Medical  Plan's fiscal  year ended  February 28,  1994  exceeded
medical  claims paid by the Company on behalf of such Affiliate Participants and
Mr. Kemper.

    During 1993, the  Company and  Richmond Homes paid  Premier Building  Group,
Inc.  ("Premier"), a company in which Mr. Mandarich's brother-in-law is an owner
and the  vice  president,  approximately  $11,557,000  for  plumbing,  door  and
millwork services.

   
    Effective  January 1,  1992, the Company  entered into  a one-year agreement
(which  is  automatically  renewed  for  successive  one-year  periods,   unless
terminated  by either party prior  to the end of any  annual term and remains in
effect) with Gilbert Goldstein, P.C., of which Gilbert Goldstein, a director  of
the  Company, is  the sole  shareholder. Under the  terms of  the agreement, Mr.
Goldstein acts as a consultant to the  Company on legal matters and, in  return,
the  Company (i) pays Mr. Goldstein's firm $7,500  per month for a minimum of 80
hours per month in legal services; (ii) pays Mr. Goldstein's firm $150 per  hour
for services performed in excess of 80 hours in any month; (iii) provides office
space  with an estimated annual rental value  of $15,600 in the Company's office
building at  3600  South  Yosemite  Street;  and  (iv)  provides  one  full-time
secretary  (in 1993,  this secretary received  an annual salary  of $27,000 plus
benefits). Payment of $90,000 was made directly to Mr. Goldstein's firm in  1993
in connection with this agreement.
    

    During  1993, the Company and Richmond Homes  paid to PageWorks + Tri Design
("PageWorks"), a marketing and  communications firm, approximately $246,000  for
advertising   and  marketing  design   services.  PageWorks  is   owned  by  the
brother-in-law of Mr. Mizel.

    HomeAmerican has made loans to certain officers and employees of the Company
in the ordinary course  of its business. Such  loans were made on  substantially
the  same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at
the time for comparable transactions with other persons and did not involve more
than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.

ASSET INVESTORS CORPORATION
   
    Financial Asset Management Corporation ("Asset Management") is an  indirect,
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company formed to provide advisory and management
services  to Asset  Investors. Asset  Management has  entered into  a management
agreement (the "Management Agreement") with  Asset Investors, which was  amended
and  renewed as of January 1, 1994.  Pursuant to the Management Agreement, Asset
Management advises Asset Investors on various facets of its business and manages
its day-to-day operations, subject to the supervision of Asset Investors'  board
of  directors. As of May 2, 1994, three of the five directors of Asset Investors
were Independent  Directors  (as  defined in  Asset  Investors'  Bylaws).  Asset
Management  receives  compensation,  based  in  large  part  on  the performance
    

                                       13
<PAGE>
of Asset Investors, for its  management services. During 1993, Asset  Management
earned  management  and  CMO  administration fees  of  $592,000  and $1,582,000,
respectively. Larry A. Mizel, chairman of the board of directors of the  Company
and  Asset Investors,  and Spencer  I. Browne, president  and a  director of the
Company  and  president,  chief  executive  officer  and  a  director  of  Asset
Investors,  are the beneficial  owners of 1.28% and  1.30%, respectively, of the
outstanding common stock  of Asset Investors.  In addition, the  Company is  the
beneficial owner of approximately 1.1% of the outstanding shares of common stock
of Asset Investors.

COMMERCIAL ASSETS, INC.
   
    In  August 1993,  Asset Investors  formed Commercial  Assets to  acquire and
manage a portfolio of ownership  interests in commercial securitizations. As  of
May  2, 1994, three of the five  directors of Commercial Assets were Independent
Directors (as  defined in  Commercial Assets'  Bylaws). In  October 1993,  Asset
Investors  distributed approximately 70%  of the shares  of Commercial Assets to
the  Asset  Investors   shareowners  as   a  dividend.   Asset  Investors   owns
approximately  27.5%  of  the common  stock  of Commercial  Assets.  The Company
currently owns  approximately  0.8%  of Commercial  Assets'  outstanding  common
stock.  Asset Management has entered into a management agreement with Commercial
Assets. Pursuant to the Commercial Assets management agreement, Asset Management
receives an  incentive fee,  which is  based on  the performance  of  Commercial
Assets,  administration  fees  and  fees  for  other  management  services.  The
incentive fee  is  based  on  Commercial  Assets'  income  as  determined  under
applicable  provisions  of the  Internal Revenue  Code. Asset  Management earned
$5,000 in fees from Commercial Assets through December 31, 1993. Mr. Mizel,  the
chairman  of the board of directors,  and Mr. Browne, president, chief executive
officer and a director of Commercial  Assets, are beneficial owners of 1.9%  and
1.5%, respectively, of the outstanding common stock of Commercial Assets.
    

RICHMOND HOMES
    In  December 1989,  the Company  sold most  of the  real estate  and related
assets used in its  Colorado home building and  land development operations  and
certain other assets to Richmond Homes for notes and preferred and common stock.
Pursuant  to agreements entered  into between the Company  and Richmond Homes at
that time,  Richmond Homes  also  was required  to purchase  certain  additional
property  (the "Additional Property") from  the Company. During 1993, $3,267,000
of Additional Property  was purchased for  $2,905,000 in notes  and $362,000  in
cash.  At December 31, 1993, Richmond Homes had $142,781,000 principal amount of
notes payable (including the RAHC Loan which is discussed below) outstanding  to
the  Company at interest  rates, excluding contingent  interest (which generally
accrues based on $1,500 per  home closed up to 1,500  homes per year and  $1,750
for each home closed in excess of 1,500 homes, not to exceed an interest rate of
12%  per annum), ranging from  0% to prime plus  2.5% and maturity dates ranging
from January 1994 through December 2000. The notes are secured by common  stock,
mortgages  on  property  and  other  assets  of  Richmond  Homes  which  had  an
approximate book value of $127,000,000 at December 31, 1993.

   
    On February 2, 1994, the Company  acquired 35% of the outstanding shares  of
Richmond  Homes common  stock (the only  remaining shares of  Richmond Homes not
then owned by the Company) from  Messrs. Mizel and Mandarich. Messrs. Mizel  and
Mandarich  had  purchased the  shares in  December 1989.  In exchange  for their
shares of Richmond Homes, Messrs. Mizel  and Mandarich received an aggregate  of
608,695  shares of MDC Common Stock based upon a purchase price determined by an
appraisal. The Company  now owns  100% of  Richmond Homes.  As of  May 2,  1994,
Messrs.  Mizel and  Mandarich owed $559,920  and $280,080,  respectively, to the
Company under unsecured  promissory notes  (which bear interest  at 8%,  payable
annually  in December, and which  mature in December 1999)  which were issued to
the Company in February 1994 in exchange  for an aggregate of $840,000 in  notes
held  by  the Company  which were  executed  by Messrs.  Mizel and  Mandarich in
connection with  their 1989  purchase from  the Company  of the  Richmond  Homes
shares. The Company recognized interest income of $67,000 on the exchanged notes
in 1993.
    

    Richmond  Homes  and  the  Company entered  into  various  other agreements,
including agreements which  outline the  terms under which  certain accrued  and
contingent liabilities and future

                                       14
<PAGE>
performance  obligations with respect to the assets sold to Richmond Homes would
be shared between  Richmond Homes and  the Company. In  addition, under  written
arrangements  for 1993,  (i) the Company  provided data  processing services and
supplies to Richmond Homes, for which  it charged Richmond Homes $162,000;  (ii)
the  Company provided certain administrative services (principally tax and legal
services) to Richmond Homes, for which  it charged Richmond Homes $138,000;  and
(iii)  Richmond  Homes provided  certain  construction management,  warranty and
other services to the Company, for  which it charged the Company $41,000.  These
agreements  were  cancelled  in  February  1994  when  Richmond  Homes  became a
wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company also  leased certain space in its  building
to Richmond Homes for rent of $24,000 in 1993.

    The  Company has issued a $100,000 letter  of credit to an insurance company
to facilitate  Richmond  Homes'  participation in  the  Company's  home  buyers'
structural  warranty program. The Company and Richmond Homes also entered into a
separate agreement whereby Richmond Homes  reimburses the Company for all  costs
associated with Richmond Homes' participation in this warranty program. Richmond
Homes  granted the Company a  secured interest in real  estate as collateral for
the $100,000 letter of credit.

    In November  1992,  Richmond  Homes  and  M.D.C.  Development  and  Pipeline
Company,  a  wholly-owned subsidiary  of  the Company  (formerly  named Richmond
American Homes of Colorado,  Inc., "RAHC"), entered into  a Loan Agreement  (the
"RAHC Loan") pursuant to which RAHC loaned Richmond Homes the original principal
amount  of $22,500,000. The RAHC Loan  provides for monthly payments of interest
at a rate of 2.5% per annum over the prime rate (8.5% at December 31, 1993)  and
payments  of principal  in quarterly  installments, which  commenced November 1,
1993, of  $1,000,000.  The RAHC  Loan  also  provides for  certain  payments  of
contingent  interest to RAHC from  the sale of the  property which was developed
with the proceeds of the RAHC Loan.  A commitment fee of $1,125,000, payable  in
annual  installments of $225,000  beginning in November  1992, was required with
respect to the RAHC Loan. The RAHC Loan is partially secured by junior liens  on
certain   of  Richmond  Homes'  properties  and  the  stock  of  Richmond  Homes
Investments, Inc. IV ("Richmond  Homes Investments"), a wholly-owned  investment
subsidiary  of  Richmond Homes.  The  proceeds of  the  RAHC Loan  were  used as
follows: (i) $15,000,000 was disbursed to  pay in full a $15,000,000  promissory
note   executed  by  Richmond  Homes  to   RAHC  in  connection  with  the  1989
restructuring; (ii) $5,512,000 was used to pay off the $6,000,000 line of credit
from the Company to Richmond Homes; and (iii) the remaining $1,988,000 was  used
for certain development costs for Colorado home building projects. The RAHC Loan
is not a revolving line of credit and is due on December 31, 1997.

    In  November 1992, M.D.C. Land Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, granted to  Richmond Homes  rolling options to  purchase 179  developed
lots  in the  Piney Creek  development in  Arapahoe County,  Colorado, for which
Richmond Homes paid option deposits totalling $100,000. In May 1993, 120 lots in
a Piney Creek development were  added to the rolling  options. The terms of  the
options  required,  upon  purchase,  initial payments  ranging  from  $18,000 to
$50,000 per  lot,  with an  average  of approximately  $27,000  per lot.  As  of
December  31, 1993, 76 lots had been  purchased under these options for payments
totalling $1,906,000. The option agreements were cancelled in February 1994 when
Richmond Homes became a wholly-owned subsidiary.

    In addition,  in  November  1992, Richmond  Homes  Investments  granted  the
Company an option to acquire up to $14,600,000 principal amount of the Company's
senior subordinated notes due in 1996 (the "MDC 1996 Notes"), which are owned by
Richmond  Homes Investments, at a price equal  to 83% of the principal amount of
such MDC  1996  Notes. The  Company  paid $110,000  to  acquire the  option.  In
December  1993, the  Company terminated the  option and  exchanged with Richmond
Homes Investments the MDC 1996 Notes for a 12.375% $14,600,000 principal  amount
note due December 2004. No gain or loss was recorded in the exchange.

    During  1993, subsidiaries of  the Company sold to  Richmond Homes water and
sewer taps for approximately $699,000 and land for approximately $190,000.

    The Company guarantees  certain bank indebtedness  of Richmond Homes,  which
bank   indebtedness  had  an  outstanding  principal  balance  of  approximately
$17,702,000 at December 31, 1993.
