NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein set forth, the parties
hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. Amendments to Rights Agreement. The following provisions of the Rights Agreement are
amended as follows:
(a) The definition of “Acquiring Person” in Section 1(a) of the Rights Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
“Acquiring Person” shall mean any Person who or which, together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, shall be the Beneficial Owner of 20% or more of the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding, but shall not include (i) the Company, (ii) any Subsidiary of the Company, (iii) any employee benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, (iv) any entity holding Common Shares for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan, (v) any Common Shares beneficially owned by the Company’s Chairman, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx (hereinafter “Xxxxxxxx”), or (vi) following the death of Xxxxxxxx, any Person directly receiving Common Shares from Xxxxxxxx pursuant to the last will and testament of Xxxxxxxx or, if no such will exists at the time of his death, then pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution as may be applicable to his estate upon his death; provided, however, that if Xxxxxxxx (or any Person directly receiving Common Shares from Xxxxxxxx pursuant to clause (vi) above) shall become the Beneficial Owner of 49.99% or more of the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding, then Xxxxxxxx (or any Person directly receiving Common Shares from Xxxxxxxx pursuant to clause (vi) above) shall be deemed to be an Acquiring Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall become an “Acquiring Person” as the result of an
acquisition of Common Shares by the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the proportionate number of shares beneficially owned by such Person and such Person’s Affiliates and Associates to 20% or more (or, with respect to Xxxxxxxx, 49.99% or more) of the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding; provided, however, that if a Person, together with such Person’s Affiliates and Associates, shall become the Beneficial Owner of 20% or more (or, with respect to Xxxxxxxx, 49.99% or more) of the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding by reason of share purchases by the Company and shall, after such share purchases by the Company, such Person, together with its Affiliates and Associates, become the Beneficial Owner of any additional Common Shares of the Company, then such Person shall be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person.”

entirety as follows:
