[1] Represents liabilities for financing arrangements discussed in Note 8 – Variable Interest Entities, as well as liabilities for fixed or determinable amounts associated with TIFE assessments. As homes are delivered, our obligation to pay the remaining TIFE assessments associated with each underlying lot is transferred to the homebuyer. As such, these assessment obligations will be paid by us only to the extent we do not deliver homes on applicable lots before the related TIFE obligations mature.

[2] Represents lease liabilities within our homebuilding operations and financial services operations of $26.5 million and $.1 million, respectively, at November 30, 2023, and $27.5 million and $.1 million, respectively, at November 30, 2022
