This Amendment No. 1 amends footnote 1 to the preceding table of the Schedule 13D filed by Washington Homes, Inc. on September 11, 2000, pertaining to the Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc., by deleting the bracketed language as set forth below and substituting therefor the underscored language as set forth below: (1) Washington Homes, Inc. ("Washington Homes") has entered into a Voting Agreement, dated August 28, 2000, with certain stockholders of Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc., ("Hovnanian") which provides that signatory stockholders will vote their shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share of Hovnanian (the "Hovnanian Class A Common Stock"), and Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Hovnanian Class B Common Stock"), in favor of [a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement] the Share Issuance (as defined hereinafter). The ------------------ stockholders of Hovnanian who are signatories to such Voting Agreement own in the aggregate 6,341,345 shares of the Hovnanian Class A Common Stock and 5,735,148 shares of the Hovnanian Class B Common Stock. The Hovnanian Class B Common Stock is convertible into the Hovnanian Class A Common Stock. Unless the context otherwise requires, the Hovnanian Class A Common Stock and the Hovnanian Class B Common Stock may sometimes be referred to collectively in this Schedule 13D as the "Hovnanian Common Stock." Washington Homes does not have any rights as a stockholder of Hovnanian pursuant to said Voting Agreement. Accordingly, Washington Homes expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares subject to said Voting Agreement. Other than the change to footnote 1 as set forth above, no other portion of the Schedule 13D filed by Washington Homes, Inc. on September 11, 2000, or document incorporated therein by reference, is changed by this Amendment No. 1.
