The consent solicitation will expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on March 14, 2002, unless extended by NVR. If the requisite consents are received (at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes that are deemed outstanding) and the supplemental indenture effecting the amendment is executed, NVR will make a payment equal to 2% of the principal amount of the Notes ($20 in cash for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes) to each holder of Notes whose consent is received and accepted prior to the expiration date.
