Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
     On August 17, 2007, KB Home (the “Company”) entered into the third amendment (the “Revolver Amendment”) to the Revolving Loan Agreement dated as of November 22, 2005 among the Company, the lenders party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, as amended (the “Revolving Loan Agreement”). The Revolver Amendment allows for a reduction of the ratio (the “Ratio”) of the Company’s consolidated earnings to consolidated interest expense (as each is determined under the Revolving Loan Agreement) below that otherwise required under Section 6.11 of the Revolving Loan Agreement (the “Required Ratio”) for a period of up to 9 consecutive quarters (the “Reduction Period”). During the Reduction Period, the interest rates applied to borrowings and the unused line fee under the Revolving Loan Agreement and the required minimum ratio of the Company’s consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated net worth are subject to adjustment based on the level of the Ratio. The Revolver Amendment also permits the Company to be free from any minimum Ratio requirement during the Reduction Period for a period of up to four consecutive quarters (the “Elimination Period”) if during the Elimination Period the Company maintains a certain minimum ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated net worth (each as determined under the Revolving Loan Agreement) and deposits certain funds in an interest-bearing reserve account with the Administrative Agent; provided that the Company may withdraw funds from the account to the extent it achieves and maintains a Ratio during the Elimination Period above that required under the terms of the Revolver Amendment. Each of the Reduction Period and the Elimination Period will commence if and when the Company provides notice thereof to the Administrative Agent. The Revolver Amendment also makes certain permanent amendments to certain provisions of the Revolving Loan Agreement. Consenting lenders party to the Revolver Amendment received a fee in connection therewith.
     The above description is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Revolver Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.39 to this Current Report.
