RECITALS:
A. The Company, CBRE and the Investors are parties to a Securityholders’ Agreement, dated as of July 20, 2001 (the “Securityholders’ Agreement”; capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Securityholders’ Agreement), which provides for, among other things, the registration of shares of Common Stock held by the Investors, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein;
B. On February 17, 2004, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-112867) (as may be amended from time to time, together with any related Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act, the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act in connection with a potential underwritten public offering of shares of the Class A Common Stock (the “Potential IPO”), including the offering and sale of shares of the Class A Common Stock to the underwriters for the Potential IPO (the “Underwriters”) on a firm commitment basis (the “Firm Commitment Shares”) and the potential offering and sale of shares of the Class A Common Stock in connection with any exercise by the Underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares to cover over-allotments (the “Over-Allotment Shares”); and
C. The parties hereto wish to amend and waive certain provisions in the Securityholders’ Agreement in connection with, and to provide for certain matters relating to, the Potential IPO.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Section 1. Waiver of Advance Notice. Each of the Investors hereby waives the requirement of the Company set forth in Section 3.2(a) of the Securityholders’ Agreement to notify all Holders of Registrable Securities in writing at least fifteen (15) days prior to the initial filing of the Registration Statement.
Section 2. Conversion Notice. Pursuant to paragraph 8(a) of Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation, each of the Xxxx Funds, the FS Entities, Xxxx, Xxxxx and the Management Investors hereby requests the conversion of all of the shares of Class B Common Stock held by it or him on a share for share basis into the same number of shares of Class A Common Stock effective immediately prior to the completion of the Potential IPO, which time of effectiveness shall be the “Class B Conversion Time” (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation); provided, however, that this Section 2 shall cease to be effective, and the notice provided hereby shall be null and void and of no further force and effect, if the completion of the Potential IPO shall not occur prior to July 31, 2004 or the Registration Statement shall be withdrawn by the Company prior to such date.
Section 3. Allocation of Shares for Sale in Potential IPO. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be set forth in the Securityholders’ Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 3.2 thereto), each of the Company and the Investors hereby agrees that the shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued and sold by the Company and to be sold by the Selling Investors (as defined below) in the Potential IPO shall be allocated as follows:
(i) The Company shall issue and sell Firm Commitment Shares in the Potential IPO with an aggregate Value (as defined below) of up to $150 million (the “Company Allocation”) and shall not issue or sell any additional shares of its capital stock in the Potential IPO.
(ii) The Company, in consultation with the representatives of the Underwriters, shall determine the number of Firm Commitment Shares to be offered in the Potential IPO and the number of Over-Allotment Shares that the Underwriters will have an option to purchase to cover over-allotments, if any (the “Over-Allotment Offering Size”). If and to the extent the representatives of the Underwriters advise the Company that the offering in the Potential IPO of an aggregate Value of Firm Commitment Shares (the “Firm Commitment Offering Size”) greater than the Company Allocation would not have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the shares of Class A Common Stock to be offered in the Potential IPO, the Selling Investors, in the aggregate, shall be entitled to sell, and hereby agree to sell, shares of Class A Common Stock in the Potential IPO with an aggregate Value equal to the excess of the Firm Commitment Offering Size over the Company Allocation (such excess, the “Investors Firm Commitment Allocation”), with the Investors Firm Commitment
2
Allocation to be allocated among the Selling Investors as set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 3(a). If and to the extent the representatives of the Underwriters elect to exercise the Underwriters’ over-allotment option and purchase some or all of the Over-Allotment Shares on one or more occasions, the Selling Investors, in the aggregate, on each such exercise shall be entitled to sell, and hereby agree to sell, to the Underwriters the Over-Allotment Shares with respect to such exercise (each such sale pursuant to an exercise of the over-allotment option, an “Investors Over-Allotment Allocation”), with such Investors Over-Allotment Allocation to be allocated among the Selling Investors as set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 3(a).
(iii) Each of the Investors Firm Commitment Allocation (if any) and the Investors Over-Allotment Allocations (if any) will be allocated among the Selling Investors on a pro rata basis, which for each Selling Investor (subject to such Selling Investor’s compliance with Section 3(b) hereto) shall be the ratio of (A) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock owned by such Selling Investor (including for these purposes all shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock pursuant to Section 2 hereto and upon exercise of outstanding warrants) to (B) the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock owned by all of the Selling Investors participating in the Potential IPO (including for these purposes all shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock pursuant to Section 2 hereto and upon exercise of outstanding warrants). Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Selling Investors in Section 6(a) hereto and the absence of Transfers of Restricted Securities by the Selling Investors between the date hereof and the date of execution of the Underwriting Agreement (as defined below), Schedule I attached hereto reflects the pro rata allocation of each of the Selling Investors reflected as a percentage of the shares of Class A Common Stock to be included in each of the Investors Firm Commitment Allocation or the Investors Over-Allotment Allocation (in each case, subject to the assumptions set forth in such schedule).
(iv) Each of the Management Investors hereby waives his right set forth in Section 3.2 of the Securityholders’ Agreement to sell shares of Common Stock in the Potential IPO (including, without limitation, the sale of any Firm Commitment Shares and the sale of any Over-Allotment Shares).
(v) For purposes of this Section 3, (A) “Value” shall mean the price to the public per share of Class A Common Stock that is offered in the Potential IPO and (B) “Selling Investors” shall mean the Investors other than the Management Investors.
(b) Each of the Selling Investors hereby agrees to (i) participate in the Potential IPO in the manner set forth in Section 3(a) hereto, (ii) execute and deliver to the representatives of the Underwriters an underwriting agreement in customary form reasonably satisfactory to such Selling Investor (the “Underwriting Agreement”) and (iii) execute and deliver such other documentation and instruments as such representatives shall reasonably request from such Selling Investor pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, including, without limitation, a customary custody agreement relating to the deposit of the shares of Class A
3
Common Stock to be sold by such Selling Investor in the Potential IPO, a customary power of attorney appointing an attorney-in-fact for such Selling Investor, customary opinions of counsel, the original stock certificate or certificates representing such shares and one or more stock powers with respect to such shares.
(c) Each of the Company and the Selling Investors acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section 3 shall constitute the written notice required to be delivered by each of the Selling Investors desiring to include in the Registration Statement any of the Registrable Securities held by it or him pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Securityholders’ Agreement and that the disposition of shares of Common Stock in the Potential IPO, as described in the Registration Statement, shall be the method of disposition for the Investors.
(d) Each of the Selling Investors agrees and acknowledges that the Company shall have sole authority and discretion with respect to the determination of each of the following matters with respect to the Potential IPO: (i) the Firm Commitment Offering Size, (ii) the Over-Allotment Offering Size, (iii) the Value, (iv) the identities of the Underwriters, (v) the timing of the filing of the Registration Statement and any amendments and exhibits to the Registration Statement, the timing of the filing, printing and distribution of any preliminary prospectus, definitive prospectus or prospectus supplement and the timing of any road show or other selling efforts, (vi) the contents of the Registration Statement, including, without limitation, any prospectus contained therein and any exhibits filed therewith (provided, however, that each of the Selling Investors shall be entitled to review the Registration Statement in advance of each filing thereof and provide comments with respect to any portions thereof with respect to which such Selling Investor would be required to indemnify the Company or any of the Underwriters pursuant to the Securityholders’ Agreement or the Underwriting Agreement if such portion contained a material misstatement or omission), (vii) the method and manner of the disposition of shares of Class A Common Stock in the Potential IPO and (viii) whether to terminate the Potential IPO and/or withdraw the Registration Statement.
(e) Except as set forth in this Section 3, the provisions of Article III of the Securityholders’ Agreement shall remain unchanged and shall apply to the Potential IPO with respect to each of the Company and the Investors.
(f) For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood by each of the parties hereto that none of the provisions set forth in this Section 3 or in Schedule I or Schedule II to this Agreement reflect any subdivision (by stock split or otherwise) of the shares of Common Stock. In the event of any such subdivision prior to the closing of the Potential IPO, the provisions in this Section 3 and in Schedule I and Schedule II will be adjusted proportionately to reflect such subdivision.
Section 4. Acknowledgment Regarding Section 3.1 of the Securityholders’ Agreement. Each of the Company and the Investors acknowledge that the participation by the Selling Investors in the Potential IPO, as contemplated by Section 3 hereto and the Registration Statement, shall not constitute a registration requested by any of such Selling Investors pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Securityholders’ Agreement.
4
Section 5. Amendments Related to Potential IPO. (a) Subject to Section 5(b), each of the Company, CBRE and the Investors agrees as follows:
(i) The phrase “(iii) Note Investor Holders holding not less than 25% of the Registrable Securities then outstanding held by the Note Investor Holders” contained in the first sentence of Section 3.1(a) of the Securityholders’ Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows: “(iii) [Intentionally Omitted]”.
(ii) The phrase “(z) a registration requested by Note Investor Holders pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(iii), after the Company has effected one (1) registration requested by Note Investor Holders pursuant to such Section” contained in Section 3.1(c)(ii) of the Securityholders’ Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows: “(z) [Intentionally Omitted]”.
(iii) The phrase “(z) Note Investor Holders holding not less than 50% of the Registrable Securities then outstanding held by all Note Investor Holders, in the case of a registration requested pursuant to Section 3.1(iii)” contained in Section 3.3 of the Securityholders’ Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows: “(z) [Intentionally Omitted]”.
(iv) The phrase “all FS Holders in the case of clause (y) and all Note Investor Holders in the case of clause (z)” contained in Section 3.3 of the Securityholders’ Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows: “and all FS Holders in the case of clause (y)”.
(v) The percentage “2%” contained in the first sentence of Section 3.7 of the Securityholders’ Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows: “0.5%”.
(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Amendment and Waiver to the contrary, the effectiveness of the amendments set forth in Section 5(a) is conditioned upon the completion of the Potential IPO prior to July 31, 2004. In the event such condition is not satisfied or in the event the Registration Statement shall be withdrawn by the Company prior to such date, the amendments set forth in Section 5(a) shall be null, void and of no effect.
Section 6. Other Amendments. (a) Each of the Company, CBRE and the Investors agrees that the last sentence of Section 4.2 of the Securityholders’ Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety, effective as of the date hereof, as follows: “Each Securityholder that is a Class B Securityholder (other than Xxxxx) immediately prior to an IPO hereby agrees that, at all times after an IPO, such Securityholder will, and will cause each of its Affiliates to, vote all shares of Common Stock owned or held of record by it, at each annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company at which directors of the Company are to be elected, in favor of the election or re-election as a member of the Board of each such individual nominated by any Securityholder pursuant to this Section 4.2.”
