TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 29, 2007, Pulte Homes, Inc. (the Company) amended its unsecured revolving credit facility
(the Credit Facility), decreasing the borrowing availability from $2.01 billion to $1.86 billion
and extending the maturity date from October 2010 to June 2012. Under the terms of the Credit
Facility, the Company has the capacity to issue letters of credit up to $1.125 billion. Borrowing
availability is reduced by the amount of letters of credit outstanding. The Credit Facility
contains certain restrictive covenants, the most restrictive of which requires the Company not to
exceed a debt-to-total capitalization ratio of 55%. The Credit Facility no longer contains an
interest coverage ratio covenant that could create an event of default for the Company, but if the
Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility) is less than 2 to 1, LIBOR and Letter
of Credit pricing under the Credit Facility increases in increments ranging from 0.125% to 0.375%.
The Credit Facilitys uncommitted accordion feature remains unchanged at $2.25 billion.
JPMorgan Securities Inc. served as Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner for the Credit Facility on the
Companys behalf, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. will serve as Administrative Agent. The Credit
Facility was broadly syndicated among 29 financial institutions.
A copy of the amended and restated Credit Facility is filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on
Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
