                   VARIANCES TO REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

         The Company represents and warrants to each holder that except as
hereinafter set forth in this Schedule 2, each of the representations and
warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement is true and
correct as of the date hereof. The Section references hereinafter set forth
correspond to the similar sections of the Note Purchase Agreement which are
supplemented hereby:

         Section 5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries;
Affiliates. (a) Schedule 5.4 to the First Amendment contains (except as noted
therein) complete and correct lists (1) of the Company's Subsidiaries, showing,
as to each Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its
organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or
similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other
Subsidiary, (2) of the Company's Affiliates, other than Subsidiaries and (3) of
the Company's directors and senior officers.

         (b) All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity
interests of each Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.4 to the First Amendment as
being owned by the Company and its Subsidiaries have been validly issued, are
fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Company or another Subsidiary
free and clear of any Lien (except as otherwise disclosed in Schedule 5.4 to the
First Amendment).

         (c) Each Subsidiary identified in Schedule 5.4 to the First Amendment
is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly
qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing
in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than
those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good
standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other
power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own
or hold under lease and to transact the business it transacts and proposes to
transact.

         (d) No Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to, any legal
restriction or any agreement or instrument (other than this Agreement, the
agreements listed on Schedule 5.4 to the First Amendment and customary
limitations imposed by corporate law statutes) restricting the ability of such
Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar
distributions of profits to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that own
outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of such
Subsidiary.

         Section 5.8. Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and Orders.

                              (to First Amendment)



any Subsidiary or any property of the Company or any Subsidiary in any court or
before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority
that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

         Section 5.15. Existing Debt. Except as described therein, Schedule 5.15
to the First Amendment sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding
Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of May 31, 2003 (other than with

2003), since which date there has been no Material change in the amounts,
interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or maturities of the Debt of
the Company or its Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in
default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any
principal or interest on any Debt of the Company or such Subsidiary and no event
or condition exists with respect to any Debt of the Company or any Subsidiary
that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would
permit) one or more Persons to cause such Debt to become due and payable before
its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.

         Section 5.16. Existing Investments. Schedule 5.16 to the First
Amendment sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Investments

assets, alleging any damage to the environment or violation of any Environmental
Laws. Except as otherwise disclosed in Schedule 5.18 to the First Amendment:

                  (a)      neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has knowledge
         of any facts which would give rise to any Material claim, public or
         private, or Material violation of Environmental Laws or damage to the
         environment emanating from, occurring on or in any way related to real
         properties now or formerly owned, leased or operated by any of them or
         to other assets or their use;

                  (b)      neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
         (l)has stored any Hazardous Materials on real properties now or
         formerly owned, leased or operated by any of them or (2) has disposed
         of any Hazardous Materials in a manner contrary to any Environmental
         Laws; in each case in any manner that could reasonably be expected to
         result in a Material Adverse Effect; and

                  (c)      all buildings on all real properties now owned,
         leased or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are in

5.18(a)

Granite Construction in the normal course of business utilizes petroleum
(hydrocarbon) products which may be considered hazardous materials when
encountered at regulatory levels established by the Federal EPA or the Regional
State EPA. The utilization of these asphalt products, diesel, and gasoline over
the years of operations have the potential of creating exposure to environmental
clean up requirements. All underground tanks meet current requirements. There
are no pending governmental ordered clean up requirements. However, the
following represents estimates based on construction industry housekeeping
practices as encountered during our normal course of business. Except as
indicated with an " * ", these costs do not represent actual identified
exposures. Items indicated with an " * " are carried on the books as a
liability.

                              ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

5.18(a)

Granite Construction in the normal course of business utilizes petroleum
(hydrocarbon) products which may be considered hazardous materials when
encountered at regulatory levels established by the Federal EPA or the Regional
State EPA. The utilization of these asphalt products, diesel, and gasoline over
the years of operations have the potential of creating exposure to environmental
clean up requirements. All underground tanks meet current requirements. There
are no pending governmental ordered clean up requirements. However, the
following represents estimates based on construction industry housekeeping
practices as encountered during our normal course of business. Except as
indicated with an " * ", these costs do not represent actual identified
exposures. Items indicated with an " * " are carried on the books as a
liability.
