Shares Acquired as Merger Consideration. A portion of the shares of Class A Common Stock reported in this Schedule 13D as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person were acquired by the Reporting Person in connection with the closing of the business combination involving DHHC, Hestia Merger Sub, Inc., a South Carolina corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of DHHC (“Merger Sub”), and Great Southern Homes, Inc. (“GSH”), pursuant to a Business Combination Agreement between such parties, dated September 10, 2022 (the “Business Combination Agreement”). Upon the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”) on March 30, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, (i) Merger Sub merged with and into GSH (such transaction, the “Merger”), (ii) GSH continued as the surviving entity of the Merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of DHHC, and (iii) DHHC changed its name to United Homes Group, Inc.
As consideration for the Merger, the stockholders of GSH (the “Pre-Merger Stockholders”) were collectively entitled to receive from DHHC, in the aggregate, a number of shares of DHHC Class A common stock (valued at $10.00 per share) with an aggregate value equal to (a) $500,000,000 minus (b) the Company Closing Indebtedness (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement); plus (c) the Company Closing Cash (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement (as so calculated, the “Merger Consideration”). In addition, and without limitation, each option to purchase GSH common shares (each, a “GSH Option”) outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time was cancelled in exchange for an option to purchase a number of Class A Common Shares (“Rollover Options”) equal to (x) the number of GSH common shares subject to such GSH Options immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), at an exercise price per share equal to (A) the exercise price per GSH common share of such GSH Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio. Subject to certain exceptions, each Rollover Option is subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the GSH Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.
Upon the Closing of the Merger, Mr. Levine received Merger Consideration in the form of a Rollover Option to acquire 35,480 shares of Class A Common Stock, 25% of which is presently beneficially owned.
The summary description in this Schedule 13D of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions effected thereby is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Business Combination Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The GSH Option held by the Reporting Person prior to the closing of the Business Combination was acquired in exchange for provision of services.
Shares Acquired Pursuant to Lock-Up Agreements. Prior to the Closing Date, each of the A. Levine Trust and the V. Levine Trust purchased (A) 350,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in the open market at a price of $10.08 per share and (B) 87,500 shares of Class A Common Stock at a purchase price of $0.01 per share, pursuant to certain share lock-up and non-redemption agreements entered into on March 23, 2023 (the “Share Lock-Up Agreements”).
Exclusi on of Shares Issuable in Connection with Earnout Rights. As additional consideration for the Merger, the Pre-Merger Stockholders were granted the contingent right (the “Earnout Right”) to receive up to 20,000,000 additional shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares”), to be distributed in up to three payments (each, an “Earnout Share Payment”), if, for 20 out of any 30 consecutive trading days during the period beginning 90 days after the Closing Date and ending on the 5-year anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Earnout Period”), the Issuer’s VWAP (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) equals or exceeds the following per-share values (each, an “Earnout Target”): (i) $12.50 per share, in which case each Pre-Merger Stockholder will be issued its Earn Out Pro Rata Share (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) of 7,500,000 Earnout Shares (the “First Earnout Share Payment”); (ii) $15.00 per share, in which case each Pre-Merger Stockholder will be issued its Earn Out Pro Rata Share of 7,500,000 Earnout Shares (the “Second Earnout Share Payment”); and (iii) $17.50 per share, in which case each Pre-Merger Stockholder will be issued its Earn Out Pro Rata Share of 5,000,000 Earnout Shares (the “Third Earnout Share Payment”).
In connection with the Earnout Right granted to the Pre-Merger Stockholders, on the Closing Date of the Merger, Mr. Levine received an Earnout Right to acquire up to 17,687 Earnout Shares (his Earn Out Pro Rata Share of the aggregate maximum of 20,000,000 Earnout Shares issuable to the Pre-Merger Stockholders), (i) 6,632 of which will be issued in connection with the First Earnout Share Payment, (ii) 6,632 of which will be issued in connection with the Second Earnout Share Payment, and (iii) 4,422 of which will be issued in connection with the Third Earnout Share Payment. With respect to Mr. Levine’s Earnout Share potential, each Earnout Share Payment is contingent on the Issuer’s VWAP equaling or exceeding the required Earnout Target for 20 out of any 30 consecutive trading days during the Earnout Period.
Mr. Levine’s right to receive Earnout Shares pursuant to the Earnout Right granted in the Business Combination Agreement became fixed and irrevocable on the Closing Date of the Merger. However, the Earnout Shares underlying Mr. Levine’s Earnout Right are excluded from the shares reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person in this Schedule 13D because none of the related Earnout Targets have been satisfied.

The foregoing resale and transfer restrictions may be released or waived by the Issuer; provided that to the extent any Lock-Up Investor is granted a release or waiver from such restrictions, other Lock-Up Investors with similar restrictions will generally be automatically granted a release or waiver from the similar restrictions affecting them to the same extent.
