<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Centex Corporation (&#147;Centex&#148;), 3333 Holding Corporation (&#147;Holding&#148;) and
3333 Development Corporation (&#147;Development&#148;), the general partner of Centex
Development Company, L.P., are Nevada corporations. Pursuant to the provisions
of Section&nbsp;78.7502 of the Nevada General Corporation Law, every Nevada
corporation has authority to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys&#146; fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and
in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under Nevada law, Centex, Holding and Development also have the
authority to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be
made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the
right of the corporation, to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust of other enterprise against expenses including amounts paid in
settlement and attorneys&#146; fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he acted in
good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the corporation. No indemnification shall be made,
however, for any claim, issue or matter as to which a person has been adjudged
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable to the corporation or for
amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent
that the court determines that in view of all the circumstances, the person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems
proper.
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To the extent any person referred to in the two immediately preceding
paragraphs is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action,
suit or proceeding, the Nevada General Corporation Law provides that such person
must be indemnified by the corporation against expenses including attorneys&#146;
fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense.
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law requires Nevada
corporations to obtain a determination that any discretionary indemnification is
proper under the circumstances. Such a determination must be made by the
corporation&#146;s stockholders; its board of directors by majority vote of a quorum
consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding;
or under certain circumstances, by independent legal counsel. The Articles of
Incorporation of Centex, Holding and Development provide for indemnification of
its directors and officers to the extent provided by Nevada law.
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, Section&nbsp;78.037 of the Nevada General Corporation Law
permits Nevada corporations to include in their articles of incorporation a
provision eliminating the personal liability of their directors and officers, to
the corporation or stockholders, for damages resulting from their breach of
fiduciary duties. An amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of Centex
Corporation was adopted by its stockholders at the annual meeting held on July
15, 1987 in order to effect the permitted limitation on liability. The Articles
of Incorporation of Holding and Development contain a similar provision limiting
the liability of their directors and officers for such damages, as do the Bylaws
of Centex, Holding and Development.

<P><FONT size="2">its directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent provided by
the Nevada General Corporation Law and such corporation&#146;s Articles of
Incorporation. In addition, the Bylaws of each corporation provide for
indemnification to the same extent of any director, officer or employee of the
corporation who serves in any fiduciary capacity with respect to any profit
sharing, pension or other type of welfare plan or trust for the benefit of
employees of the corporation or its subsidiaries.
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Centex has entered into indemnification contracts with its directors
and may enter into similar contracts from time to time with certain officers and
employees of Centex and its subsidiaries who are not directors of Centex. The
general effect of the indemnification contracts is to provide that the
indemnitees shall be indemnified to the fullest possible extent permitted by the
law against all expenses, including attorneys&#146; fees, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by them in any
action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of Centex, by
reason of their service in the foregoing capacities. The provisions of the
aforementioned indemnification contracts were approved by Centex&#146;s stockholders
at the annual meeting of stockholders held on July&nbsp;16, 1986.

<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the
&#147;Limited Partnership Agreement&#148;) of Centex Development Company, L.P. (&#147;CDC&#148;)
provides that to the fullest extent permitted by law, CDC will indemnify the
general partner and its directors, officers, employees and agents and persons
serving on behalf of CDC in similar capacities with other entities against
liabilities, costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by
the general partner or such persons in connection with litigation or threatened
litigation, if the general partner or such persons acted in good faith and in a
manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
CDC, and such general partner&#146;s or such other person&#146;s conduct did not
constitute gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct and, with respect to
any criminal proceeding did not have any reason to believe his conduct was
unlawful. Any indemnification under these provisions will be limited to the
assets of CDC.

Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee
pursuant to Rule 457(h)(1), and computed on the basis of the average of
the high and low sales prices of the Common Stock included in the New York
Stock Exchange Composite Transactions Report for October 16, 2002 as
published by The Wall Street Journal, which was $44.58 per share.

On November 30, 1987, Centex Corporation ("Centex") distributed as a
dividend to its stockholders (through a nominee, the "Nominee") all the
issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value ("Holding
Common Stock"), of 3333 Holding Corporation ("Holding"), and 900 warrants
(the "Stockholder Warrants") to purchase Class B Units of limited
partnership interest in Centex Development Company, L.P., a Delaware
limited partnership ("CDC").
The Nominee holds the Stockholder Warrants and 1,000 shares of Holding
Common Stock on behalf of and for the benefit of persons who are from time
to time the holders of the common stock, $0.25 par value ("Centex Common
Stock"), of Centex ("Centex Stockholders"). Each Centex Stockholder owns a
beneficial interest in that portion of the 1,000 shares of Holding Common
Stock and the Stockholder Warrants that the total number of shares of Centex
Common Stock held by such stockholder bears to the total number of shares of
Centex Common Stock outstanding from time to time. This beneficial interest
of the Holding stockholders is not represented by a separate certificate or
receipt. Instead, each Centex Stockholder's pro rata portion of such
beneficial interest is represented by the certificate or certificates
evidencing such Centex Stockholder's Centex Common Stock, and is currently
tradeable only in tandem with, and as a part of, each such Centex
Stockholder's Common Stock.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Raymond G. Smerge has rendered a legal opinion, filed with the Exhibits
for Centex as Exhibit 5, with respect to the legality of the securities
registered hereby. Mr. Smerge is the Executive Vice President, Chief Legal
Officer and Secretary of Centex Corporation and the Secretary of 3333 Holding
Corporation. As of October 22, 2002, Mr. Smerge owned 22,500 shares of Common
Stock of Centex Corporation (in addition 1,200 shares are held in trust for the
benefit of Mr. Smerge's son). Mr. Smerge also held options to purchase up to
254,100 shares of Common stock (of which 120,900 shares are currently
exercisable) and beneficially owned approximately 2,039 shares of Common Stock
pursuant to the Centex Common Stock Fund under the Centex Corporation Profit
Sharing and Retirement Plan, a defined contribution plan.
ITEM 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Centex Corporation ("Centex"), 3333 Holding Corporation ("Holding") and
3333 Development Corporation ("Development"), the general partner of Centex
Development Company, L.P., are Nevada corporations. Pursuant to the provisions
of Section 78.7502 of the Nevada General Corporation Law, every Nevada
corporation has authority to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and
in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Under Nevada law, Centex, Holding and Development also have the
authority to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be
made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the
right of the corporation, to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust of other enterprise against expenses including amounts paid in
settlement and attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he acted in
good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the corporation. No indemnification shall be made,
however, for any claim, issue or matter as to which a person has been adjudged
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable to the corporation or for
amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent
that the court determines that in view of all the circumstances, the person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems
proper.
To the extent any person referred to in the two immediately preceding
paragraphs is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action,
suit or proceeding, the Nevada General Corporation Law provides that such person
must be indemnified by the corporation against expenses including attorneys'
fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense.
Section 78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law requires Nevada
corporations to obtain a determination that any discretionary indemnification is
proper under the circumstances. Such a determination must be made by the
corporation's stockholders; its board of directors by majority vote of a quorum
consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding;
or under certain circumstances, by independent legal counsel. The Articles of
Incorporation of Centex, Holding and Development provide for indemnification of
its directors and officers to the extent provided by Nevada law.
In addition, Section 78.037 of the Nevada General Corporation Law
permits Nevada corporations to include in their articles of incorporation a
provision eliminating the personal liability of their directors and officers, to
the corporation or stockholders, for damages resulting from their breach of
fiduciary duties. An amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of Centex
Corporation was adopted by its stockholders at the annual meeting held on July
15, 1987 in order to effect the permitted limitation on liability. The Articles
of Incorporation of Holding and Development contain a similar provision limiting
the liability of their directors and officers for such damages, as do the Bylaws
of Centex, Holding and Development.
The Bylaws of Centex, Holding and Development each provide that the corporation shall indemnify
Table of Contents
its directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent provided by
the Nevada General Corporation Law and such corporation's Articles of
Incorporation. In addition, the Bylaws of each corporation provide for
indemnification to the same extent of any director, officer or employee of the
corporation who serves in any fiduciary capacity with respect to any profit
sharing, pension or other type of welfare plan or trust for the benefit of
employees of the corporation or its subsidiaries.
Centex has entered into indemnification contracts with its directors
and may enter into similar contracts from time to time with certain officers and
employees of Centex and its subsidiaries who are not directors of Centex. The
general effect of the indemnification contracts is to provide that the
indemnitees shall be indemnified to the fullest possible extent permitted by the
law against all expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by them in any
action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of Centex, by
reason of their service in the foregoing capacities. The provisions of the
aforementioned indemnification contracts were approved by Centex's stockholders
at the annual meeting of stockholders held on July 16, 1986.
The Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the
"Limited Partnership Agreement") of Centex Development Company, L.P. ("CDC")
provides that to the fullest extent permitted by law, CDC will indemnify the
general partner and its directors, officers, employees and agents and persons
serving on behalf of CDC in similar capacities with other entities against
liabilities, costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by
the general partner or such persons in connection with litigation or threatened
litigation, if the general partner or such persons acted in good faith and in a
manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
CDC, and such general partner's or such other person's conduct did not
constitute gross negligence or willful or wanton misconduct and, with respect to
any criminal proceeding did not have any reason to believe his conduct was
unlawful. Any indemnification under these provisions will be limited to the
assets of CDC.
Pursuant to authority granted by the Nevada General Corporation Law and
its respective Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, each of Centex, Holding and
Development, and with respect to CDC, pursuant to the Limited Partnership
Agreement, CDC has purchased directors and officers liability insurance.
The foregoing summaries are necessarily subject to the complete text of
the statute, articles of incorporation, bylaws, agreements and insurance
policies referred to above and are qualified in their entirety by reference
thereto.

Item 8. Exhibits.
The information required by this Item 8 is set forth in the Index to
Exhibits accompanying this Registration Statement.
Item 9. Undertakings.
The undersigned Registrants hereby undertake:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement;
(i)
To include any prospects required by section 10(a)(3)
of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act");
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement
(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change
in the information set forth in the Registration Statement.
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to
the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
Registration Statement or any material change to such information
in the Registration Statement.
Provided, however,
that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrants pursuant
to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement.
(2)
That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to
be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bonafide offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(4)
That, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant
to section 13(a) of section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed
to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities
Table of Contents
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(5)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by
such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion
of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
