EXHIBIT B

NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION OF GROUP

 

As noted in the original Schedule 13G and its subsequent amendments, Thomas Redwitz was previously a party to an Investor Rights Agreement (the "Investor Rights Agreement"), dated as of February 5, 2014, by and among The New Home Company Inc. (the “Company”), Watt/TNHC LLC (“Watt”), TCN/TNHC LP (“Tricon”), the Separately Filing Group Member, and each of the Reporting Persons, as individuals, as a result of which Thomas Redwitz may have been deemed to be a member of a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act with the other parties thereto. On May 22, 2018, the Investor Rights Agreement was amended by terminating the agreement solely as to each of Watt and Tricon. On May 6, 2020, the Company, the Separately Filing Group Member, and the Reporting Persons entered into a second amendment to the Investor Rights Agreement Amendment to terminate the Investor Rights Agreement effective May 6, 2020 solely as to Thomas Redwitz.  As a result, Thomas Redwitz is no longer bound by the voting obligations set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement and is no longer filing as a member of a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act as of May 6, 2020. All future filings with respect to transactions in the security reported on will be filed, if required, by Thomas Redwitz in his individual capacity.
