Land Partners and the resulting equity in earnings of, and receipt of
management fees from, Lennar Land Partners, and (c) the transfer of assets
to LNR Property Corporation and disposition through a spin-off of all the

Pacific Greystone Corporation).
(2) The following purchase accounting adjustments have been included in the
pro forma numbers: (a) the amortization of goodwill over a 20 year period

(3) The following effects of purchase accounting adjustments have not been

Property Corporation and the formation of Lennar Land Partners
(approximately $29 million).
