Exhibit 4.1
-----------
RESTRUCTURING AGREEMENT
THIS RESTRUCTURING AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made as of the 19/th/
day of April, 2001, by and among GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION ("GE
Capital"), TRANSIT GROUP, INC. ("Transit Group"), XXXXXXX XXXXXX & COMPANY,
INC., J & L TRUCK LEASING OF FARMINGTON, INC. and TRANSIT GROUP TRANSPORTATION,
LLC ("TGT") (collectively, the "Transit Group Subsidiaries").
Transit Group and/or the Transit Group Subsidiaries (or predecessors
thereto) and GE Capital and/or its affiliates (directly or indirectly by means
of an assignment from the original party) have heretofore entered into those
certain lease agreements described on Schedule A attached hereto (each, a "Lease
Agreement" and collectively, the "Lease Agreements"), those certain security
agreements described on Schedule B attached hereto (each, a "Security Agreement"
and collectively, the "Security Agreements"), and those certain promissory notes
described on Schedule C attached hereto (each, a "Promissory Note" and
collectively, the "Promissory Notes"). Transit Group, the Transit Group
Subsidiaries and certain predecessors in interest to the Transit Group
Subsidiaries have heretofore executed that certain Agreement of Amendment dated
as of December 31, 1998 (the "Amendment"), providing for the assignment to and
assumption by Transit Group Transportation, LLC of certain rights and
obligations under the Lease Agreements, the Security Agreements and the
Promissory Notes. The Lease Agreements, the Promissory Notes and the Amendment
are sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Operative
Agreements". The obligations of Transit Group and the Transit Group Subsidiaries
pursuant to the Operative Agreements are collectively referred to as the
"Obligations". The Obligations are guaranteed, in whole or in part, by those
certain guaranties described on Schedule D attached hereto (each, an "Existing
Guaranty" and collectively, the "Existing Guaranties") executed by the
guarantors specified on Schedule C attached hereto (each, an "Existing
Guarantor" and collectively, the "Existing Guarantors").
The parties have determined that the Amendment contained an error in that
Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx & Company, Inc. was not merged into TGT as reflected in the
Amendment and the obligations of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx & Company, Inc. with respect to
the Operative Agreements were not assigned to, and assured by, TGT as reflected
therein. Furthermore, subsequent to the Amendment, Rainbow Trucking Services,
Inc. was merged into TGT as of December 31, 1999, and the parties desire to
reflect the assignment to, and assumption by, TGT of all obligations of Rainbow
Trucking Services, Inc. pursuant to the Operative Documents.
Certain events more particularly described in Schedule E hereto have
occurred under the Operative Agreements and the Security Agreements which
constitute or would constitute defaults thereunder (such events being
hereinafter called the "Designated Defaults"). Transit Group and the Transit
Group Subsidiaries have requested that GE Capital waive such Designated Defaults
and restructure the Obligations by permitting: the assignment to, and assumption
by Transit Group of the rights and obligations of the Transit Group Subsidiaries
pursuant to the Operative Agreements; the amendment and restatement of the
Operative Agreements to include a revised payment structure and revised terms
and conditions as specified in the amended and restated Operative Agreements the
"Amended Operative Agreements"). The obligations of Transit Group pursuant to
the Amended Operative Agreements are collectively referred to as the "Transit
Group Obligations".
In order to induce GE Capital to consent to the foregoing, the Transit
Group Obligations are to be guaranteed by the Transit Group Subsidiaries; the
Existing Guaranties shall remain in full force and effect and applicable to the
Transit Group Obligations to the extent the Existing Guaranties were applicable
to the Obligations assigned to Transit Group hereunder; and the Security
Agreements shall be amended and restated in the form of the Amended and Restated
Master Security Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit No. 1 (the "Amended
Security Agreement"), and shall secure the Transit Group Obligations. GE Capital
is willing to restructure the Obligations and to amend and restate the Operative
Agreements as hereinafter set forth.

Agreements or the Amended Security Agreement (a "Default") that has occurred and
is continuing or, if there is any such event, describing it and the steps, if
any, being taken to cure it; and (8) as and when requested by GE Capital, such
other reasonable information with respect to Transit Group's business, condition
(financial or otherwise), operations, performance or properties, as reasonably
may be requested by GE Capital.
(b) Transit Group will promptly execute and deliver to GE Capital
such further documents, instruments and assurances and take such further action

intent and purpose of this Agreement and the Related Documents and to establish
and protect the rights and remedies created or intended to be created in favor

in the Amended Security Agreement).
(d) On October 19, 2005 (the "Termination Date"), Transit Group shall
pay to GE Capital a fee in the amount of $1,000,000; provided, however, that in
lieu of requiring payment of such
5

be deemed to be included in any reference to "GE Capital"), shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to purchase from Transit Group on the Termination
Date, and Transit Group shall sell to GE Capital if GE Capital so elects,
17,601,276 shares of the Transit Group's Common Stock or such number of shares
of Transit Group's Common Stock as shall be equal to five percent (5%) of the

the date hereof (the "Percentage Determination Date"). The shares of Common

sentence are hereinafter called the "Purchased Shares". Anything in the
foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding if GE Capital determines that the

incurred in connection with the purchase of the Purchased Shares and the resale
of the Purchased Shares (including, without limitation, the purchase price and
all filing costs, legal fees, and appraisal fees), GE Capital shall exercise its
right to purchase the Purchased Shares rather than requiring a cash payment of
the Termination Fee. The purchase price for the Purchased Shares shall be Five
Cents ($.05) per share. As used herein, "Common Stock" shall mean the Common
Stock, $.01 par value, of Transit Group as constituted on the date hereof, and
any capital stock into which such common stock may hereafter be changed, and
shall also include (i) capital stock of Transit Group of any other class
(regardless of how denominated), issued to the holders of shares of common stock
upon any capital reorganization or reclassification of the common stock, which
is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of
Transit Group and which is not subject to redemption, and (ii) shares of capital
stock of any successor or acquiring corporation received by or distributed to
the holders of common stock in connection with the consolidation or merger of
Transit Group with or into another corporation (where Transit Group is not the
surviving corporation), a share exchange in which Transit Group's common stock
will be acquired, or the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or
substantially all its property, assets or business to another corporation and,
pursuant to the terms of such merger, consolidation, share exchange or
disposition of assets, shares of capital stock of the successor or acquiring
corporation, or any cash, or other securities or property of any nature
whatsoever in addition to or in lieu of capital stock of the successor or
acquiring corporation are to be received by or distributed to the holders of
common stock of Transit Group. Appropriate provisions shall be made in
connection with a reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, share
exchange, or disposition of assets with respect to the rights and interest of GE
Capital under this Section 5(e) to the end that the provisions of this Section
shall immediately after the transaction be applicable as nearly as possible to
any shares of stock, securities or other property deliverable immediately after
the transaction upon the exercise of GE Capital's rights under this Section.
Transit Group shall not effect any consolidation, merger, share exchange or
disposition of assets unless, prior to the consummation of the transaction, the
successor or acquiring entity (if other than Transit Group) resulting from the
consolidation or merger, the entity acquiring the shares of Transit Group's
common stock in the share exchange, or the entity acquiring the assets assumes
by written instrument executed and delivered to Transit Group the obligation to
deliver to GE Capital the shares of stock, securities or other property that GE
Capital may be entitled to purchase in accordance with the foregoing provisions.
As used herein, "Shares Outstanding" shall include all issued and outstanding
shares of the Common Stock and all shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion of preferred stock.
(1) If GE Capital elects to purchase the Purchased Shares, it
shall provide written notice thereof to Transit Group not less than thirty
(30) days prior to the Closing Date. At the closing of the purchase of the
Purchased Shares, Transit Group will deliver to GE Capital a certificate
representing the Purchased Shares, registered in the name of GE Capital,
and the parties will execute the amendments to the Registration Rights
Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement contemplated by Sections 5(e)(3)
and (4) hereof.
(2) The Purchased Shares shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of May 13, 1999,
between Transit Group and GE Capital
6
Equity Investments, Inc. (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), and
effective from and after the Closing Date, the Registration Rights
Agreement shall be amended such that GE Capital shall be added as a party
to the Registration Rights Agreement as of the Closing Date, and the
Purchased Shares shall be included in the definition of "Registrable
Securities" as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. Transit
Group covenants and agrees to execute and deliver an amendment to the
Registration Rights Agreement containing the foregoing provisions on or
before the Closing Date.
(3) The Purchased Shares shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of the Stockholders Agreement dated as of May 13, 1999, between
Transit Group and GE Capital Equity Investments, Inc. (the "Stockholders
Agreement"), and effective from and after the Closing Date, the
Stockholders Agreement shall be amended such that GE Capital shall be added
as a party to the Stockholders Agreement as of the Closing Date. Transit
Group covenants and agrees to execute and deliver an amendment to the
Registration Rights Agreement containing the foregoing provisions on or
before the Closing Date.
(4) Transit Group covenants and agrees that (A) it shall at all
times reserve a sufficient number of authorized shares of its Common Stock
for issuance to GE Capital, (B) all Purchased Shares delivered upon the
exercise of GE Capital's rights hereunder shall, upon delivery and payment
therefor, be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully-paid and non-
assessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the
purchase thereof and (C) it will offer and sell the Purchased Shares to GE
Capital in compliance with applicable exemptions from registration under,
and otherwise in compliance with, federal and state securities laws, and
neither it nor anyone acting on its behalf will take any action to cause
the offer and sale of the Purchased Shares to be subject to the
registration provisions of federal or state securities laws.
(e) Transit Group and the Transit Group Subsidiaries shall, upon
request of GE Capital, furnish to GE Capital such further information, execute
and deliver to GE Capital such documents and instruments (including, without
limitation, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and amended
certificates of title) and do such other acts and things, as GE Capital may at
any time reasonably request relating to the perfection or protection of the
security interests and other interests contemplated by this Agreement and the
other Amended Operative Documents or for the purpose of carrying out the intent
of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Transit Group and the Transit
Group Subsidiaries shall cooperate and do all acts deemed reasonably necessary
or advisable by GE Capital (i) to continue in GE Capital's perfected first
security interest in the collateral granted pursuant to the Security Agreements,
(ii) to document GE Capital's ownership interest in the assets leased pursuant
to the Lease Agreements, and Transit Group and the Transit Group Subsidiaries
shall use their best efforts to obtain and furnish to GE Capital any
subordinations, releases, landlord, lessor, or mortgagee waivers, and similar
documents as may be from time to time requested by, and which are in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to, GE Capital. In addition, without limiting
the foregoing, Transit Group and the Transit Group Subsidiaries confirm and
agree that they will cooperate with GE Capital in connection with the
confirmation of the collateral lists attached to the Amended Security Agreement
and the Amended Lease, and take such steps as shall be necessary to insure that
such collateral lists include all assets covered by the original Security
Agreements and the original Lease Agreements.
