Effective October 28, 2024, G.F. (Rick) Ringler, III, age 77, Director of Forestar Group Inc. (the “Company”), resigned from the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), including his positions as a member of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee and as Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee. Mr. Ringler’s resignation does not relate to any disagreement on matters relating to the Company or the Company’s operations, policies or practices or any other matter.

Effective October 28, 2024, the Board appointed two new independent directors. The new directors are Ms. Kellie L. Fischer and Mr. George W. Seagraves, II. Additionally, Ms. Fischer was named a member of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Governance Committee and Mr. Seagraves was named a member of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee. With the resignation of Mr. Ringler and these new director appointments, the Company’s Board expands to six directors, five of whom are independent.

Ms. Fischer, age 53, is the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Rangers Baseball Express LLC (the “Rangers”), which is the holding company of the Texas Rangers baseball franchise, the Rangers’ real estate development entities and REV Entertainment, LLC (an events and sports management company).

Horton, including Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer for the Eastern U.S., Northeast Region President and East Region President. Mr. Seagraves holds a Bachelor of Science degree in landscape architecture from Texas A&M University.

In connection with the appointments of Ms. Fischer and Mr. Seagraves to the Board, each is eligible to receive the compensation offered to all of the Company’s non-employee directors for service on the Board, as disclosed in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 15, 2023. Each of the new directors was also granted restricted stock units, totaling $140,000 in value, that vest in equal amounts over three years.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Fischer and Mr. Seagraves and any other person in connection with their appointments as directors of the Company. These individuals are not related to any officer or director of the Company, and there are no transactions or relationships that are reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K between either individual and the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
