EXHIBIT (C)(4)
STOCKHOLDER AGREEMENT
This Stockholder Agreement dated May 5, 1999 (this "Agreement"), is made
and entered into among Falcon Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Parent"), SY Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned
subsidiary of Parent ("Purchaser"), on the one hand, and The Fern and Xxxxxxx
Xxxxxxxxx Charitable Remainder Trust UTA 10/17/95 (the "Trust") and Xxxxxxx
Xxxxxxxxx ("Steinfeld"), on the other hand.
Recitals:
Parent, Purchaser, and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Industries, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Company"), propose to enter into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger, dated as of the date hereof (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to
which the Purchaser will merge with and into Company (the "Merger") on the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. Except
as otherwise defined herein, terms used herein with initial capital letters
have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Merger Agreement.
As of the date hereof, the Trust is the record holder of 300,000 shares of
the common stock, par value $.05 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Company
and Steinfeld is the beneficial owner of such shares, having the power to
dispose of and to vote such shares. As used herein, (i) the Trust and
Steinfeld shall collectively be referred to as the "Stockholder", and (ii) the
300,000 shares of Common Stock, together with any shares of Common Stock
issued to or acquired by Stockholder after the date of this Agreement, shall
be referred to as the "Shares." The Shares as of the date of this Agreement
are described on Exhibit A hereto.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser shall commence a cash tender
offer (the "Offer") to purchase at a price of $16.50 per share all of the
Common Stock of Company. Stockholder has advised Parent and Purchaser that it
intends to tender the Shares in the Offer.
As a condition and inducement to Parent's and Purchaser's willingness to
enter into the Merger Agreement, Parent and Purchaser have requested that
Stockholder agree, and Stockholder has agreed, to enter into this Agreement.
E. The Board of Directors of the Company has approved this Agreement, the
Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby so as to
render inapplicable Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law to the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
Now, Therefore, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and the
Merger Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto,
intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
ARTICLE I

adjournments thereof), and in connection with any action to be taken in
respect of the adoption of the Merger Agreement by written consent of
stockholders of Company, Stockholder shall vote or cause to be voted
(including by written consent, if applicable) all of the Shares in favor of
the adoption of the Merger Agreement and in favor of any other matter
necessary for the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement and considered and voted upon at any such
meeting or made the subject of any such written consent, as applicable. During

action which is intended or could reasonably be expected to materially impede,
interfere with, delay or materially and adversely affect the consummation of
the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement or this Agreement; provided, however, that neither the Merger nor any
other transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement to be consummated by
Company, Parent or Purchaser in connection with the Merger shall constitute an
Other Proposal. Stockholder shall not enter into any agreement or understanding
with any person or entity the effect of which would be violative of the
provisions and agreements contained in this Section 1.1.

SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE. STOCKHOLDER SHALL TAKE SUCH FURTHER ACTION OR EXECUTE
SUCH OTHER INSTRUMENTS AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO EFFECTUATE THE INTENT OF THIS

of law or otherwise).
Section 5.8 Confidentiality. Stockholder recognizes that successful
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be
dependent upon confidentiality with respect to the matters referred to herein.
In this connection, pending public disclosure thereof, Stockholder hereby
agrees not to disclose or discuss such matters with anyone not a party to this
Agreement (other than its counsel and advisors, if any) without the prior
written consent of Parent, except for filings required pursuant to the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder or disclosures its counsel advises
are necessary in order to fulfill its obligations imposed by law, in which
event Stockholder shall give notice of such disclosure to Parent as promptly as
practicable so as to enable Parent to seek a protective order from a court of
competent jurisdiction with respect thereto.
Section 5.9 Further Assurances. Stockholder shall execute and deliver such
other documents and instruments and take such further actions as may be
necessary or appropriate or as may be reasonably requested by Parent or
Purchaser in order to ensure that Parent and Purchaser receive the full benefit
of this Agreement.
Section 5.10 Enforcement. Irreparable damage would occur in the event that
any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with
their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the parties shall
be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this
Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this
Agreement in the Court of Chancery in and for New Castle County in the State of
Delaware (or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any appropriate
state or federal court in New Castle County in the State of Delaware), this
being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in
equity. Each of the parties hereto (i) shall submit itself to the personal
jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery in and for New Castle County in the State
of Delaware (or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any
appropriate state or federal court in New Castle County in the State of
Delaware) in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) shall not attempt to deny or defeat such
personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court,
and (iii) shall not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the Court of Chancery
in and for New Castle County in the State of Delaware (or, if such court lacks
subject matter jurisdiction, any appropriate state or federal court in New
Castle County in the State of Delaware).
Section 5.11 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of
any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be
effective and valid under applicable law but if any provision or portion of any
provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision
or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be
reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been
contained herein.
Section 5.12 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings used herein are
inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of
or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
