EXHIBIT B
TERMS OF PARTICIPATING PREFERRED STOCK
The preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to
dividends, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption of a series of preferred stock,
par value $0.01 per share, of Hanover Capital Mortgage Holdings, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the
“Corporation”), designated as Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, shall be as
follows, with any changes to the use of defined terms or enumeration or lettering of sections and
subsections or form as may be necessary or appropriate upon the filing thereof with the State
Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland:
(i) The designation of the Participating Preferred Stock shall be “Participating Preferred
Stock.” Each share of this Series shall be identical in all respects with the other shares of this
Series except as to the dates from and after which dividends thereon shall be cumulative.
(ii) The number of shares of this Series shall initially be 583,000, which number may from
time to time be increased or decreased (but not below the number then outstanding) by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”). Shares of this Series acquired by the
Corporation shall constitute authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock without designation
as to series. Shares of this Series may be issued in fractional shares, which fractional shares
shall entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder’s fractional share, to all rights of a
holder of a whole share of this Series.
(iii) The holders of full or fractional shares of this Series shall be entitled to receive,
when and as authorized by the Board of Directors and declared by the Corporation, but only out of
funds legally available therefor, dividends, (A) on each date that dividends or other distributions
(other than dividends or distributions payable in Common Stock of the Corporation) are payable on
or in respect of Common Stock comprising part of the Reference Package (as defined below), in an
amount per whole share of this Series equal to the aggregate amount of dividends or other
distributions (other than dividends or distributions payable in Common Stock of the Corporation)
that would be payable on such date to a holder of the Reference Package and (B) on the last day of
March, June, September and December in each year, in an amount per whole share of this Series equal
to the excess (if any) of $425.00 (the “Base Dividend Amount”) over the aggregate dividends paid
per whole share of this Series during the three month period ending on such last day. Each such
dividend shall be paid to the holders of record of shares of this Series on the date, not exceeding
sixty days preceding such dividend or distribution payment date, fixed for the purpose by the Board
of Directors in advance of payment of each particular dividend or distribution. Dividends on each
full and each fractional share of this Series shall be cumulative from the date such full or
fractional share is originally issued; provided that any such full or fractional share originally
issued after a dividend record date and on or prior to the dividend payment date to which such
record date relates shall not be entitled to receive the dividend payable on such dividend payment
date or any amount in respect of the period from such original issuance to such dividend payment
date.
The term “Reference Package” shall mean 10,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per
share (the “Common Stock”) of the Corporation.
Holders of shares of this Series shall not be entitled to any dividends, whether payable in
cash, property or stock, in excess of full cumulative dividends, as herein provided on this Series.
So long as any shares of this Series are outstanding, no dividend (other than a dividend in
Common Stock or in any other stock ranking junior to this Series as to dividends and upon
liquidation) shall be declared or paid or set aside for payment or other distribution declared or
made upon the Common Stock or upon any other stock ranking junior to this Series as to dividends or
upon liquidation, nor shall any Common Stock nor any other stock of the Corporation ranking junior
to or on a parity with this Series as to dividends or upon liquidation be redeemed, purchased or
otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any moneys be paid to or made available for a sinking
fund for the redemption of any shares of any such stock) by the Corporation (except by conversion
into or exchange for stock of the Corporation ranking junior to this Series as to dividends and
upon liquidation), unless, in each case, the full cumulative dividends (including the dividend to
be due upon payment of such dividend, distribution, redemption, purchase or other acquisition) on
all outstanding shares of this Series shall have been, or shall contemporaneously be, paid.
(iv) In the event of any merger, consolidation, reclassification or other transaction in which
the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or
any other property, then in any such case the shares of this Series shall at the same time be
similarly exchanged or changed in an amount per whole share equal to the aggregate amount of stock,
securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, that a holder of
the Reference Package would be entitled to receive as a result of such transaction.
(v) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the
Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of full and fractional shares of this
Series shall be entitled, before any distribution or payment is made on any date to the holders of
the Common Stock or any other stock of the Corporation ranking junior to this Series upon
liquidation, to be paid in full an amount per whole share of this Series equal to the greater of
(A) $170,000.00 (the “Base Liquidation Amount”) or (B) the aggregate amount distributed or to be
distributed prior to such date in connection with such liquidation, dissolution or winding up to a
holder of the Reference Package (such greater amount being hereinafter referred to as the
“Liquidation Preference”), together with accrued dividends to such distribution or payment date,
whether or not earned or declared. If such payment shall have been made in full to all holders of
shares of this Series, the holders of shares of this Series as such shall have no right or claim to
any of the remaining assets of the Corporation.
In the event the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to the holders of shares
of this Series upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether
voluntary or involuntary, shall be insufficient to pay in full all amounts to which such holders
are entitled pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section (v), no such distribution shall be
made on account of any shares of any other class or series of Preferred Stock ranking on a parity
with the shares of this Series upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up unless
proportionate distributive amounts shall be paid on account of the shares of this Series, ratably
in proportion to
the full distributable amounts for which holders of all such parity shares are respectively
entitled upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of
this Series then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of assets of the Corporation
available for distribution to its stockholders all amounts to which such holders are entitled
pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section (v) before any payment shall be made to the holders
of Common Stock or any other stock of the Corporation ranking junior upon liquidation to this
Series.
For the purposes of this Section (v), the consolidation or merger of, or binding share
exchange by, the Corporation with any other corporation shall not be deemed to constitute a
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.
(vi) The shares of this Series shall not be redeemable.
(vii) In addition to any other vote or consent of stockholders required by law or by the
charter of the Corporation, each whole share of this Series shall, on any matter, vote as a class
with any other stock comprising part of the Reference Package and voting on such matter and shall
have the number of votes thereon that a holder of the Reference Package would have.
(viii) In the event the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time (other than in
connection with the merger of JWH Holding Company, LLC, a Delaware corporation, with and into the
Corporation), (A) declare or pay a dividend on any shares of Common Stock payable in Common Stock,
(B) subdivide any shares of Common Stock or (C) combine any shares of Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares, then and in each such case (X) the Reference Package after such event shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock that a holder of the Reference Package immediately prior to
such event would hold thereafter as a result thereof and (Y) the Base Dividend Amount and the Base
Liquidation Amount shall be similarly adjusted to reflect such dividend, subdivision or combination
of shares.
