ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–PulteGroup, Inc. (NYSE: PHM) (the “Company”) announced today that it has

aggregate principal amount (the “Maximum Tender Amount”) of its 4.250%
Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”).

The terms and conditions of the Tender Offer are set forth in an Offer
to Purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related Letter of
Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), each dated May 16, 2019. The
Company intends to fund the Tender Offer with cash on hand.

The Tender Offer will expire at 12:00 Midnight, New York City time, at
the end of June 13, 2019 (the “Expiration Time”), unless extended or
earlier terminated. Holders who validly tender and do not validly
withdraw their Notes at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
May 30, 2019 (the “Early Tender Time”), and whose Notes are accepted for
purchase, will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of such Notes,
the “Total Consideration” of $1,020, which includes an “Early Tender
Premium” of $30.00. Holders who validly tender their Notes after the
Early Tender Time will only be eligible to receive the “Tender Offer
Consideration,” which is the Total Consideration less the Early Tender
Premium.

In addition to the Total Consideration or Tender Offer Consideration, as
applicable, Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase will also
receive accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment date
for the Notes to, but not including, the applicable settlement date.
Payment for all Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender
Time and accepted for purchase will be made on the “Early Settlement
Date”, which will be promptly after the Early Tender Time and is
anticipated to occur on or about May 31, 2019. Payment for all Notes
validly tendered after the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase,
if any, will be made promptly after the Expiration Time.

If more than the Maximum Tender Amount of Notes are validly tendered and
not validly withdrawn, the Company will accept such Notes for purchase
on a pro rata basis up to the Maximum Tender Amount. If, at the Early
Tender Time, the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered
equals or exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, the Company does not expect
to accept for purchase any Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender
Time. If, at the Early Tender Time, the aggregate principal amount of
Notes validly tendered is less than the Maximum Tender Amount, the
Company expects to accept for purchase all Notes validly tendered at or
before the Early Tender Deadline without proration, and, in such
instance, only Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Deadline
and at or before the Expiration Time will be subject to possible
proration. The Company reserves the right, but is not obligated, to
increase the Maximum Tender Amount in its sole discretion.

Tendered Notes may be withdrawn at any time at or prior to, but not
after, 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 30, 2019, unless extended
by the Company except under certain limited circumstances as otherwise
required by law.

The consummation of the Tender Offer is not conditioned upon any minimum
amount of Notes being tendered, but is subject to the satisfaction or
waiver of certain conditions described in the Offer to Purchase.

The Company has engaged BofA Merrill Lynch to act as the dealer manager
for the Tender Offer. The Information Agent for the Tender Offer is
Global Bondholder Services, Inc. Copies of the Offer to Purchase and
