Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The Company has entered into amendments to its First Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement dated July 31, 2007, as amended (the "First Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement") and its Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of July 31, 2007, as amended, (the "Revolving Credit Agreement") to, among other things, (i) extend through February 1, 2008, the waiver of the financial covenants set forth in Amendment No. 1 to the First Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Revolving Credit Agreement, (ii) revise the material adverse change representation with respect to matters disclosed in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, (iii) modify a provision regarding the obligation to pay amounts owed in connection with certain land banking arrangements, and (iv) seek waivers of the cross-default provision resulting from any breach of a covenant regarding the matters described in (iii) above. In addition, the amendments require the Company to adhere to a cash flow budget, which has been prepared by the Company, which does not provide for current payments on its long-term indebtedness including the interest payment due on January 1, 2008 with respect to the Company's 10 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012. Failure to pay interest on such notes within 30 days of the due date could result in the indebtedness represented by the notes becoming immediately due and payable and as a result cause other indebtedness of the Company to be accelerated and become immediately due and payable. As previously disclosed, the Company is considering restructuring alternatives. The description of the amendments is qualified in its entirety to copies of the amendments which are attached hereto as exhibits 99.1 and 99.2.

The Company has paid a fee of approximately $1.6 million in the aggregate, plus expenses, to the lenders that consented to the amendments.

For a discussion about the Company’s financial and operational position, including the restructuring alternatives being considered, the Company refers you to its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including its (i) Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 filed with the SEC on November 14, 2007, and (ii) press release dated November 14, 2007, filed as exhibit 99.1 to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 20, 2007.
