EXPLANATORY NOTE
The Howard Hughes Corporation
(the “Company”) is filing these post-effective amendments (these “Post-Effective Amendments”) to
the registration statements on Form S-8 listed below (collectively, the “Registration Statements”), which have been
previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), to deregister any and all shares of the
Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and any plan interests registered but unsold
or otherwise unissued under each such Registration Statement as of the date hereof.
On August 11, 2023, the Company
completed a holding company reorganization (the “Reorganization”), whereby the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Howard Hughes Holdings Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Holdco”). The Reorganization was completed pursuant to an
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated August 11, 2023 (the “Merger Agreement”), among the Company, Holdco, and HHC Merger
Sub Co., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Merger Sub”). In accordance with the Merger
Agreement, the Reorganization was implemented pursuant to Section 251(g) of the Delaware General Corporation Law by the merger of Merger
Sub with the Company, with the Company surviving the merger as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco (the “Merger”).
At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock was automatically converted in the Merger
into one share of Holdco’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, evidencing the same proportional interests in Holdco and having
the same designation, rights, powers, and preferences, and qualifications, limitations, and restrictions as a share of the Company’s
Common Stock immediately prior to the Merger. Holdco is deemed to be the successor issuer of the Company under Rule 12g-3(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Statements:
