The Horton Family Partnership is managed by Horton Family GP, L.L.C., (“Horton Family General Partner”) as general partner. The two managing members of the Horton Family General Partner are the two adult sons of Mr. Horton and Mrs. Horton, Donald Ryan Horton (“Ryan Horton”) and Douglas Reagan Horton (“Reagan Horton”).
