EXHIBIT 4.2
ADDENDUM TO
KANEB SERVICES, INC.
SAVINGS INVESTMENT TRUST AGREEMENT
This ADDENDUM is entered into this 22nd day of March 1996, by and between KANEB
SERVICES, INC., a corporation (the "Company"), and THE XXXXXXX XXXXXX TRUST
COMPANY (the "Trustee") effective for the 1st day of April, 1996.
ARTICLE 1
INVESTMENTS
1.1 (a) Except as provided below, the Committee shall have all
power over and responsibility for the management, disposition, and investment
of the Trust assets, and the Trustee shall comply with proper written
directions of the Committee concerning those assets. The Committee shall not
issue directions in violation of the terms of the Plan and Trust or prohibited
by the fiduciary responsibility rules of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). Except to the extent required by
ERISA or otherwise provided in this Addendum, the Trustee shall have no duty or
responsibility to review, initiate action, or make recommendations regarding
Trust assets and shall retain assets until directed in writing by the Committee
to dispose of them.
(b) As permitted under the Plan, each Participant and/or
beneficiary may have investment power over the account maintained for him or
her, and may direct the investment and reinvestment of assets of the account
among the options authorized by the Committee. To the extent provided under
ERISA section 404(c), the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss, or by
reason of any breach, which results from such Participant's or beneficiary's
exercise of control. If a Participant who has investment authority under the
terms of the plan fails to provide such directions, the Committee shall direct
the investment of the Participant's accounts. The Committee shall maintain
records showing the interest of each Participant and/or beneficiary in the
Trust Fund. The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility to review or make
recommendations regarding investments made at the direction of the Committee or
Participant and shall be required to act only upon receipt of proper written
directions.
1.2 The Trustee shall not be responsible for proper
diversification of the assets of the Trust Fund. The Committee or the person
to whom such responsibility has been properly delegated under the requirements
of ERISA shall be responsible for the funding policy, for diversification of
assets held in trust for the Plan, and for compliance of the Trust Fund with
statutory limitations on the amount of investment in securities or other
property of the Company or its affiliated companies.
1.3 In its administration of the Trust Fund, the Trustee shall
deliver to the Committee, or the person or persons identified by the Committee,
proxies and powers of attorney and related informational material, for any
shares or other property (other than Company Stock) held in the Trust. The
Committee shall have responsibility for voting such shares, by proxy or in
person, except to the extent such responsibility is delegated to another
person, under the terms of the
2
Plan or Trust Agreement, in which case such persons shall have such
responsibility. The Trustee may use agents to effect such delivery to the
Committee or the person or persons identified by the Committee. In no event
shall the Trustee be responsible for the voting of shares of securities held in
the Trust (other than Company Stock) or for ascertaining or monitoring whether,
or how, proxies are voted or whether the proper number of proxies is received.
1.4 (a) Voting rights with respect to shares of Company Stock held
in the Trust Fund shall be voted by the Trustee in such manner as may be
determined by the respective Participant, with respect to all matters requiring
shareholder approval. With respect to shares of Company Stock in the Trust
Fund which are allocated to Participants who fail to give directions to the
Trustee, such shares shall be voted by the Trustee based on the voting
directions of those Participants who issued directions with respect to Company
Stock allocated to their Accounts. The number of non-voted shares to be voted
in a particular manner shall be determined by multiplying the total number of
such shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of allocated
shares directed to be voted in such manner, and the denominator of which is the
total number of allocated shares directed to be voted in any manner with
respect to the matter at issue. Participants for whom no proxies are received
will be disregarded for this purpose. The Plan Committee may establish such
rules and guidelines as it deems necessary to properly effect the provision of
this section.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan and
Trust to the contrary, the Trustee shall, with respect to all Company Stock
held in the Trust Fund, accept or reject the terms of any tender offer and,
accordingly, tender Company Stock held by the Trustee in the Trust Fund in
accordance with the terms and provisions of any tender offer, or not tender
such Company Stock, as directed by the respective Participants. With respect
to shares of Company Stock which are allocated to Participants who have not
given directions, the tender or exchange rights of such shares of Company Stock
shall be exercised based on the tender or exercise directions of those
Participants who issued directions with respect to the Company Stock allocated
to their Accounts. The Trustee shall determine these tender or exercise
directions in the same manner as voting directions are determined as provided
under the above section. The Plan Committee may establish such rules and
guidelines as it deems appropriate to properly effect the provisions of this
section.
