Section 1.58
“1.58 “Qualified Trust” of any individual means any trust (including, without limitation, a voting trust) established by such individual if and as long as the trust is held for the benefit of one or more Family Beneficiaries and any Charitable Organizations and for the benefit of no other Person; provided that such trust may grant a general or special power of appointment to such individual or such individual’s spouse and may permit trust assets to be used to pay taxes, legacies and other obligations of the trust or the estate of such individual or such individual’s spouse payable by reason of the death of such individual or such individual’s spouse; and, provided further that such trust must prohibit (A) the transfer of HY Class B Shares to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee of such trust as defined in Article IV, Section 3, paragraph 4 of the HY Restated Certificate and (B) the Transfer of Partnership Interests to any Person other than to Authorized Transferees of such trust. The restrictions in subclause (B) of the prior sentence shall not be interpreted to restrict a beneficiary who is a member of a Family Group from directing that any Partnership Interests to which he or she is otherwise entitled to receive under such trust be instead transferred to one or more other Qualified Trusts that are Authorized Transferees of the trust at issue. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a trust of Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx or any other individual shall cease to be a Qualified Trust and shall be deemed, to the extent it holds Partnership Interests, to become a Former Partner, immediately prior to any event or lapse of time which causes such trust to no longer qualify as a Qualified Trust as defined in this Section 1.58.”
Section 3.3
“3.3. Status as a Qualified Trust and “Participating Stockholder”. As of the date hereof, (i) such Partner is a Qualified Trust of Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx or a member of a Family Group and no event has occurred that would cause such Partner to become a Former Partner and (ii) such Partner is a “Participating Stockholder” under Section 1.14 of the HY Stockholders’ Agreement and no event has occurred that would cause such Partner, upon the lapse of time or the receipt of notice, or both, to cease to be a “Participating Stockholder” under Section 1.14 of the HY Stockholders’ Agreement. As of the date on which any Authorized Transferee becomes a Partner, such Partner shall be deemed to make the representations contained in the preceding sentence.”
Section 4.5(b)
“(b) All distributions shall be made in proportion to the Partners’ respective Partnership Percentages except (i) when the General Partners approve the disproportionate distribution, or (ii) with respect to any payment of HY Class A Shares by the Partnership pursuant to Section 7.4 or 8.7(a). The General Partners are encouraged to consider disproportionate distributions to defray the income tax liabilities resulting from special allocations under Section 704(c) of the Code, but such disproportionate distributions shall not be
3
required. Subject to Section 4.5(a) of this Agreement, the General Partners are expressly authorized to make monthly or other periodic draws with respect to one or more, but not necessarily all, of the Partners, on the condition that compensating distributions, determined with or without interest in the discretion of the General Partners, shall be made to the other Partners on or before the end of March of the following calendar year so that the total draws and compensating distributions shall be proportionate. For all purposes of this Agreement, except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence or Section 1.49(f), a distribution among the Partners which is not in proportion to Partnership Percentages shall be regarded as disproportionate. In the event that a disproportionate distribution occurs, the General Partners shall appropriately adjust the Capital Accounts of the Partners to reflect such disproportionate distribution. Except in the case of a disproportionate distribution attributable to the income tax liabilities resulting from special allocations under Section 704(c) of the Code, such adjustment shall be determined as though the Partnership had redeemed a fraction of the Partnership Interest corresponding to the amount of the distribution that is disproportionate. This adjustment of Capital Accounts, and thus Partnership Interests, shall be in addition to the adjustment in Partnership Percentages.”
Section 5.l(h)
“(h) the determination of whether to pay any portion of a Purchase Price, or interest owed pursuant to Section 7.4, in HY Class A Shares; and”.
Section 5.2
| “5.2 | Management of Partnership Property Consisting of HY Class A Shares and HY Class B Shares: Admission of New General Partners. |
(a) The General Partners owning at least a majority of the General Partnership Interests shall direct the voting of any HY Class A Shares and HY Class B Shares held by the Partnership and may authorize the Partnership to enter into a voting arrangement with respect to any or all of such HY Class A Shares and HY Class B Shares.
(b) The Partnership shall not Transfer, or convert to HY Class A Shares, any HY Class B Shares without the consent of the General Partners owning more than seventy five percent (75%) of the General Partnership Interests and the consent of Partners owning more than seventy five percent (75%) of all Partnership Interests. Notwithstanding such consent, the Partnership (i) shall not Transfer any HY Class B Shares unless such Transfer is permitted by Article IV, Section 3, paragraph 4 of the HY Restated Certificate and (ii) shall not Transfer, or convert to HY Class A Shares, any HY Class B Shares unless such Transfer or conversion is effected in accordance with the terms of the Stockholders’ Agreement.
(c) The Partnership shall not Transfer any HY Class A Shares, other than pursuant to a share for share exchange to acquire HY Class B Shares, without the consent of the General Partners owning more than seventy five percent (75%) of the General Partnership Interests and the consent of Partners owning more than seventy five percent (75%) of all Partnership Interests.
4
(d) Subject to this Section 5.2(d) and the other provisions of this Agreement, a General Partner may transfer all, but not less than all, of its General Partnership Interest to one, but not more than one, Authorized Transferee of such General Partner. No Person shall be admitted as a General Partner of the Partnership without the consent of the General Partners owning more than seventy five percent (75%) of the General Partnership Interests and the consent of the Partners owning more than fifty percent (50%) of all Partnership Interests. Notwithstanding such consent, no Person shall be admitted as a General Partner unless such Person is an Authorized Transferee of at least one Partner of the Partnership.”
Section 7.4
“7.4 Payment of Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, at the Closing related to a Repurchase Obligation, the Partnership and each Partner electing to purchase Repurchase Interests shall pay to the Former Partner, in addition to the Purchase Price, pro-rated interest, calculated from the date of the Withdrawal Event up to the date of the Closing, at an annual rate equal to the annual short-term applicable federal rate in effect at the date of the Withdrawal Event as provided under Section 7872 of the Code. The interest may be paid in cash or HY Class A Shares on the same basis as is provided in Section 8.7 with respect to payment of the Purchase Price.”
Section 8.7
“8. 7 Terms of Sale. The Purchase Price for all Partnership Interests purchased pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 8.5 shall be paid at the Closing in immediately available United States funds; provided, however:
(a) If the purchaser is the Partnership, the Partnership, at its election and after consultation with counsel, may pay its portion of the Purchase Price in HY Class A Shares (if any), immediately available United States funds, or any combination of such consideration as follows:
| (i) | to the extent that the Partnership elects to pay the Purchase Price in HY Class A Shares, the Partnership shall deliver to the Selling Partner such number of HY Class A Shares as shall be equal to the quotient of (A) the portion of the Purchase Price payable in HY Class A Shares, divided by (B) the Applicable HY Class A Closing Price Average (if necessary the Partnership may, subject to Section 5.2, convert any HY Class B Shares held by the Partnership to HY Class A Shares to pay such Purchase Price); and |
| (ii) | immediately available United States funds equal to that portion of the Purchase Price not paid by delivery of HY Class A Shares. |
5
(b) If the purchaser is a Partner, such Partner, at his election, may pay his portion of the Purchase Price in HY Class A Shares (if any), immediately available United States funds, or any combination of such consideration as follows:
| (i) | to the extent that the Partner elects to pay the Purchase Price in HY Class A Shares, such Partner shall deliver to the Selling Partner such number of HY Class A Shares as shall be equal to the quotient of (A) the portion of the Purchase Price payable in HY Class A Shares, divided by (B) the Applicable HY Class A Closing Price Average; and |
| (ii) | immediately available United States funds equal to that portion of the Purchase Price not paid by delivery of HY Class A Shares.” |
Section 10.1
“10.1 Dissolution and Termination. The Partnership shall continue in existence until dissolved (a) with the consent of the General Partners owning more than seventy five percent (75%) of the General Partnership Interests and Partners owning more than ninety percent (90%) of all Partnership Interests, or (b) with the consent of the General Partners, at such time, if any, as the Partnership ceases to own any HY Class A Shares and HY Class B Shares. In the event that the Partnership is dissolved, the assets of the Partnership shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the Fair Market Value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom, together with any assets distributed in kind, shall be distributed (i) first to creditors to satisfy all debts and liabilities of the Partnership (including any liabilities arising under Section 8.5) other than loans or advances made by the Partners to the Partnership, (ii) then to the establishment of reserves deemed reasonably necessary by the General Partners to satisfy contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership, (iii) then to the repayment of any loans or advances made by the Partners to the Partnership, (iv) with the balance, if any, to be distributed in accordance with the balances in each Partner’s Capital Account at that time, any Partnership Property that is distributed in kind shall be treated as though such Partnership Property were sold for its Fair Market Value as of the date of distribution, as determined by an Independent Appraiser. Upon completion of the foregoing, the Partnership shall be terminated.”
Section 10.2
“10.2 Limitations On In Kind Distributions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no distribution in kind of HY Class B Shares held by the Partnership shall be made unless such distribution by the Partnership is permitted under Article IV, Section 3, paragraph 4 of the HY Restated Certificate.”
