AMENDED AND RESTATED
CENTEX CORPORATION LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 1, 2001
1. OBJECTIVES. The Centex Corporation Long Term Incentive Plan (the
"Plan") is designed to retain selected employees of Centex Corporation
and all subsidiaries, partnerships and affiliates of Centex Corporation
with regard to which Centex Corporation owns, directly or indirectly,
at least 80% of the ownership interest therein, and reward them for
making significant contributions to the success of Centex Corporation.
These objectives are to be accomplished by making awards under the Plan
and thereby providing Participants with a financial interest in the
growth and performance of Centex Corporation. The Plan shall not
constitute a "qualified plan" subject to the limitations of Section
401(a) of the Code, nor shall it constitute a "funded plan" for
purposes of such requirements. This Plan shall be exempt from the
participation and vesting requirements of Part 2 of Title I of ERISA,
the funding requirements of Part 3 of Title I of ERISA, and the
fiduciary requirements of Part 4 of Title I of ERISA by reason of the
exclusions afforded to plans which are unfunded and maintained by an
employer primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation
for a select group of highly compensated employees.

otherwise amend or modify an Award in any manner that is either (i) not

discretionary, and nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to
give any employee of a Company any right to participate in
this Plan or to be granted an Award.
(b) Awards shall be granted to Participants at such times, and
subject to paragraph 5.(d) below, in such amounts as the
Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall
determine. No credit for cash dividends on Deferred Stock will

(a) Unless different terms are set by the Administrator, an Award
shall be immediately 25% vested on its Grant Date and shall
become vested in cumulative 25% increments on each of the
first through third anniversaries of such Grant Date, so that
on the third anniversary of the Grant Date the Award will be
100% vested; provided, however, that the Participant must be
in continuous Employment from the Grant Date through the date
of the applicable anniversary in order for the Award to vest.
(b) A Participant's Award shall be fully vested, irrespective of
the limitations set forth in subparagraph (a) above, in the
event of (i) a change in control, as provided for in Section
13 below, provided that the Participant has been in continuous
Employment from the Grant Date until the date of such change
in control or (ii) Retirement of the Participant.
7. FORFEITURE OF AWARDS. If a Participant's Employment is terminated, the
Participant shall forfeit his or her Award(s) with respect to any
portion that is not vested as of such Participant's Termination Date.
8. PAYOUTS OF AWARDS. Payouts will occur as follows:
(a) Automatic Payout on Expiration Date. To the extent that a
Participant's Award has vested, such Award shall have an
automatic Payout on the Expiration Date of such Award.
Page 4
(b) Early Payouts. In addition to automatic Payout on the Expiration Date,
there may be an early Payout of the vested portion of an Award as
follows:
(i) Termination of Employment (whether voluntary or involuntary).
The vested portion of each Award shall have an automatic
Payout on the Participant's Termination Date.
(ii) Death. If a Participant dies prior to the Expiration Date,
such Participant's Award, to the extent vested, shall have an
automatic Payout as of the date of the Participant's death and
be made to the Participant's Beneficiary.
(iii) Disability. Prior to the Expiration Date, an Award, with the
approval of the Administrator, shall both be fully vested and
have an automatic Payout on the date the Participant satisfies
the definition of Disability.
(iv) Early Payout Request. A Participant may request that the
Administrator consider an early Payout to him or her with
respect to any vested portion of an Award. Such a request will
be considered at the next semi-annual meeting of the
Administrator (held in May and October of each calendar year).
Such request shall be in writing and will set forth, in
sufficient detail, the reasons for such early Payout. The
Administrator will consider such request during said meeting
and will, within thirty (30) days following said meeting,
determine in its sole and absolute discretion whether to allow
such early Payout, and then notify the Participant of its
decision.
9. FORM OF PAYOUT. As soon as practicable following a determination that
Payout of a Participant's Award shall be made as described in Section
8, but not later than five business days after the required Payout
Date, Centex Corporation shall make a Payout to the Participant. All
Payouts shall be made in Shares except that no fractional shares will
be issued and in lieu thereof cash will be paid to the Participant.
10. DELIVERY OF SHARE CERTIFICATES. As promptly as may be practicable
following a Payout, Centex Corporation shall make delivery of one or
more Share certificates, either by delivery of a physical certificate
or an electronic transfer to a broker, for the appropriate number of
Shares.
11. TAX WITHHOLDING. Centex Corporation shall deduct applicable taxes with
respect to any Award or Payout and withhold, at the time of Award or
Payout, as appropriate, a number of Shares, based on the Fair Market
Value on such date, for payment of taxes required by law.
12. NON-ASSIGNABILITY. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, no
Award or Payout or any other benefit under this Plan shall be
assignable or otherwise transferable except to a Beneficiary or by
will, the laws of descent and distribution or a domestic relations
order. The Administrator may prescribe other restrictions on transfer.
Any attempted assignment of an
Page 5
Award or any other benefit under this Plan in violation of this Section
12 shall be null and void.
13. CHANGES IN SHARES AND CERTAIN CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.
(a) If at any time while the Plan is in effect there shall be an
increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding
Shares of Centex Corporation effected without receipt of
consideration therefor by Centex Corporation, through the
declaration of a stock dividend or through any
recapitalization or merger or otherwise in which Centex
Corporation is the surviving corporation, resulting in a stock
split-up, combination or exchange of Shares of Centex
Corporation, then and in each such event an appropriate
adjustment shall be made automatically in the amount of
Deferred Stock then subject to an Award, to the end that the
same proportion of Centex Corporation's Shares which would
have been issued and outstanding assuming full Payout of such
Award as of the date of such increase or decrease shall in
each such instance remain subject to such Award.
Except as is otherwise expressly provided herein, the issuance
by Centex Corporation of shares of its capital stock of any
class, or securities convertible into shares of capital stock
of any class, either in connection with a direct sale or upon
the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or
upon conversion of shares or obligations of Centex Corporation
convertible into such shares or other securities, shall not
affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with
respect to, the number of Shares then subject to outstanding
Awards granted under the Plan. Furthermore, the presence of
outstanding Awards granted under the Plan shall not affect in
any manner the right or power of Centex Corporation to make,
authorize or consummate (i) any or all adjustments,
recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in Centex
Corporation's capital structure or its business, including the
issuance of capital stock; (ii) any merger or consolidation of
Centex Corporation; (iii) any issuance by Centex Corporation
of debt securities or preferred or preference stock which
would rank above the Shares subject to outstanding Awards
granted under the Plan; (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of
Centex Corporation; (v) any sale, transfer or assignment of
all or any part of the assets or business of Centex
Corporation; or (vi) any other corporate act or proceeding,
whether of a similar character or otherwise.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, a dissolution
or liquidation of Centex Corporation, a merger (other than a
merger effecting a reincorporation of Centex Corporation in
another state) or consolidation in which Centex Corporation is
not the surviving corporation (or survives only as a
subsidiary of another corporation in a transaction in which
the stockholders of the parent of Centex Corporation and their
proportionate interests therein immediately after the
transaction are not substantially identical to the
stockholders of Centex Corporation and their proportionate
interests therein immediately prior to the transaction), a
transaction in which another corporation becomes the owner of
50% or more of the total combined
Page 6
voting power of all classes of stock of Centex Corporation, or
a change in control (as specified below), shall cause every
Award then outstanding to become fully vested immediately
prior to such dissolution, liquidation, merger, consolidation,
transaction, or change in control, to the extent not
theretofore exercised, without regard to the determination as
to the periods and installments of vesting contained in the
Agreements if (and only if) such Awards have not at that time
expired or been terminated. For purposes of this Section 13, a
change in control shall be deemed to have taken place if:
(i) a third person, including a "Group" as defined in
Section 13(d)(3) of the Act, becomes the beneficial
owner of Shares of Centex Corporation having 50% or
more of total number of votes that may be cast for
the election of Directors of Centex Corporation; or
(ii) as a result of, or in connection with, a contested
election for Directors, persons who were Directors of
Centex Corporation immediately before such election
shall cease to constitute a majority of the Board.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, in
the event of any such dissolution, merger, consolidation,
transaction or change in control, the Board may completely
satisfy all obligations of Centex Corporation and its
Affiliates with respect to any Award outstanding on the date
of such event by delivering to the Participant cash in an
amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the
date of such event, such payment to be made within reasonable
time after such event.
14. PLAN YEAR. The Plan shall be effective as of October 1, 2001 and will
continue in effect until the Administrator terminates the same. The
Plan year will be April 1 through March 31 while this Plan is in
effect.
15. REQUIREMENTS OF LAW. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
Centex Corporation shall not be required to issue Shares under any
Award if the issuance thereof would constitute a violation by the
Participant or Centex Corporation of any provisions of any law or
regulation of any governmental authority or any national securities
exchange; and as a condition of any issuance of Shares under any Award,
Centex Corporation may require such agreements or undertakings, if any,
as Centex Corporation may deem necessary or advisable to ensure
compliance with any such law or regulation.
16. AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION. The Board may amend, suspend or
terminate the Plan at any time for the purpose of meeting or addressing
any changes in legal requirements or for any other purpose permitted by
law, except that no amendment, suspension or termination shall be made
that would impair the rights of any Participant as to a vested Award
previously granted to such Participant without his or her written
consent.
17. UNFUNDED PLAN. This Plan shall be unfunded. Although bookkeeping
accounts may be established with respect to Participants representing
Awards, any such accounts shall be used
Page 7
merely as a bookkeeping convenience. Centex Corporation shall not be
required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by
Awards, nor shall this Plan be construed as providing for such
segregation, nor shall Centex Corporation, the Board or the
Administrator be deemed to be a trustee of any Awards to be granted
under this Plan. Any liability or obligation of Centex Corporation to
any Participant with respect to a grant of Awards under this Plan shall
be based solely upon any contractual obligations that may be created
under this Plan, and no such liability or obligation of Centex
Corporation shall be deemed to be secured by any pledge or other
encumbrance on any property of Centex Corporation. None of Centex
Corporation or any other Company, the Board or the Administrator shall
be required to give any security or bond for the performance of any
obligation that may be created by this Plan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a change in
control, as described in Section 13(b), each Company whose employees
are Participants shall, as soon as possible, but in no event longer
than 15 days following the change in control, make an irrevocable
contribution to a trust established by Centex Corporation in an amount
sufficient to fully pay the entire benefit to which each Participant
employed by such Company would be entitled pursuant to the terms of
this Plan as of the date on which such change in control occurs. In its
sole discretion, Centex Corporation may establish such a trust at any
time prior to a change in control and may make contributions to such
trust in Shares or in cash which would be used to acquire Shares to
transfer to Participant. Any such trust shall be designed to assist
Centex Corporation in satisfying its obligations under this Plan; but
it shall remain subject to the claims of its creditors.
18. NO EMPLOYMENT GUARANTEED. No provision of this Plan or any Award
Agreement hereunder shall confer any right upon any employee to
continued employment with a Company.
19. NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. A Participant shall have no rights as a holder
of Shares with respect to Awards granted hereunder.
20. GOVERNING LAW. This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken
pursuant hereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by mandatory
provisions of the Act or other securities laws of the United States,
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Texas, without reference to any conflicts of law principles
thereof that would require the application of the laws of another
jurisdiction.
21. INDEMNIFICATION. Neither the members of the Board nor any member of the
Compensation and Stock Option Committee, acting in the capacity of
Administrator, shall be liable for any act, omission or determination
taken or made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award
granted under it, and the members of the Board and the Compensation and
Stock Option Committee shall be entitled to indemnification and
reimbursement by Centex Corporation in respect of any claim, loss,
damage or expense (including counsel fees) arising therefrom to the
full extent permitted by law and under any directors and officers
liability or similar insurance coverage that may be in effect from time
to time.
Page 8
22. RELEASE. Any issuance or transfer of Shares to a Participant or to his
legal representative, heir, legatee or distributee in accordance with
the provisions hereof shall, to the extent thereof, be in full
satisfaction of all claims of such persons hereunder. The Board or
Administrator may require any Participant or legal representative,
heir, legatee or distributee, as a condition precedent to such payment,
to execute a release and receipt therefor in such form as it shall
determine.
