Exhibit 10.20.1
Execution Version
This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Limited Liability
Company Agreement of PVF Holdings LLC (the “Company”) dated October 31, 2007 (the
“Agreement”) is entered into and effective as of December 18, 2007, by and among the GSCP
Members.
WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 14.12 of the Agreement, the amendments set forth herein may be
made with the written approval of the Members holding a majority of the then outstanding Common
Units (which majority must include the GSCP Members); and
WHEREAS, the GSCP Members, who, as of the date hereof hold in the aggregate a majority of the
outstanding Common Units, wish to amend the Agreement as set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the GSCP Members hereby agree as follows:
1. Amendments.
1.1. Section 5.1(e) of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following at the
beginning of such subsection:
Except as may otherwise be provided in a Member’s subscription agreement
with respect to his, her or its Interests,
1.2. ARTICLE VI of the Agreement is hereby amended to add a new Section 6.5 as follows:
Section 6.5 Midfield Members.
(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.3, each Midfield Member
shall be required to contribute cash to the Company in an amount equal to
the amount of United States Dollars set forth under the heading “Deferred
Capital Contribution” on Schedule A, as adjusted pursuant to this Section
6.5(a). Beginning on the date such Midfield Member is admitted as a Member
of the Company, interest shall accrue on his or her outstanding Deferred
Capital Contribution at a rate of 3.88% per annum, compounded annually on
each anniversary of the date such Midfield Member is admitted as Member of
the Company and calculated
on the basis of a three hundred sixty-five (365) day-year or three
hundred sixty-six (366) day-year, as applicable, applied to the actual
number of days such Deferred Capital Contribution is outstanding (with
respect to each Midfield Member, the sum of (x) his or her Deferred Capital
Contribution and (y) any accrued interest, such Midfield Member’s
“Deferred Cash Contribution Amount”). Each Midfield Member shall be
required to contribute his or her Deferred Cash Contribution Amount to the
Company on the earlier to occur of (i) the date of the closing of Red Man
Pipe & Supply Canada Ltd.’s exercise of its call right set forth in Section
10 of the Midfield Shareholders Agreement and (ii) December 31, 2008 (the
earlier of (i) and (ii), the “Due Date”). Upon contribution of cash
by a Midfield Member to the Company in an amount equal to such Midfield
Member’s Deferred Cash Contribution Amount, all Deferred Common Units held
by such Midfield Member shall no longer be Deferred Common Units but shall
remain as Common Units. A Midfield Member’s Deferred Capital Contribution,
as set forth on Schedule A, shall constitute a Capital Contribution for
purposes of Section 9.1(a).
(b) If any Midfield Member fails to contribute to the Company in cash
his or her Deferred Cash Contribution Amount pursuant to Section 6.5(a) by
the Due Date (each such Midfield Member, a “Defaulting Midfield
Member”), then, in addition to any other remedy the Company may have
under this Agreement or in law or equity against such Defaulting Midfield
Member, at any time within thirty days after the Due Date, the Company shall
have the right, but not the obligation to cause all of the Deferred Common
Units held by such Defaulting Midfield Member to be immediately forfeited.
Such forfeiture shall be deemed to have satisfied each such Defaulting
Midfield Member’s Deferred Cash Contribution Amount by the Fair Market Value
of the Deferred Common Units so forfeited; provided, that such Defaulting
Member shall remain liable for the Deferred Cash Contribution Amount to the
extent that the Fair Market Value of the Deferred Common Units so forfeited
is less than the Deferred Cash Contribution Amount. For the avoidance of
doubt, if the Fair Market Value of the Deferred Common Units so forfeited is
greater than the Deferred Cash Contribution Amount, the Midfield Member
shall not be entitled to receive any consideration from the Company or
otherwise with respect to such forfeited Deferred Common Units. If such
Defaulting Midfield Member does not hold any Common Units other than
Deferred Common Units that have been so forfeited, then such Defaulting
Midfield Member shall no longer be a Member of the Company and Schedule A
shall be amended to remove such Defaulting Midfield Member as a Member.
(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Company
exercises its Equity Call Option pursuant to Section 12.11 with respect to
any Midfield Member who at such time has an obligation to
2
deliver a Deferred Cash Contribution Amount to the Company, then within
ten days of such exercise the Company shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to cause all of the Deferred Common Units held by each such
Midfield Member to be immediately forfeited. Such forfeiture shall be
deemed to have satisfied in full the Company’s obligation to pay each such
Midfield Member the Equity Call Purchase Price pursuant to this Agreement
with respect to all Deferred Common Units held by such Midfield Member, and
such forfeiture shall be deemed to have satisfied each such Midfield
Member’s Deferred Cash Contribution Amount by the Equity Call Purchase Price
of the Deferred Common Units so forfeited; provided, that such Defaulting
Member shall remain liable for the Deferred Cash Contribution Amount to the
extent that the Equity Call Purchase Price of the Deferred Common Units so
forfeited is less than the Deferred Cash Contribution Amount. For the
avoidance of doubt, if the Equity Call Purchase Price of the Deferred Common
Units so forfeited is greater than the Deferred Cash Contribution Amount,
the Midfield Member shall not be entitled to receive any consideration from
the Company or otherwise with respect to such forfeited Deferred Common
Units.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any amount
otherwise distributable to a Midfield Member pursuant to Article IX with
respect to his or her Deferred Common Units shall not be distributed to such
Midfield Member to the extent such Midfield Member has an obligation to
deliver a Deferred Cash Contribution Amount. Instead, such amount shall be
retained by the Company and shall be deemed to have satisfied such Midfield
Member’s Deferred Cash Contribution Amount by the amount otherwise
distributable and the number of Common Units of such Midfield Member that
are Deferred Common Units shall be appropriately reduced. In connection
with a Transfer of Deferred Common Units by a Midfield Member pursuant to
Section 12.8, each Midfield Member shall direct the transferee of such
Deferred Common Units to pay directly to the Company on behalf of such
Midfield Member that portion of the proceeds that such Midfield Member would
otherwise be entitled to receive in the Transfer equal to the amount of such
Midfield Member’s Deferred Cash Contribution Amount.
(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Midfield Members
shall not be entitled to participate in Transfers pursuant to Section 12.7
with respect to any Deferred Common Units.
(f) If a Midfield Member contributes Canadian Dollars to the Company in
satisfaction of all or a portion of his or her Deferred Cash Contribution
Amount, the extent to which such contribution satisfies such Midfield
Member’s Deferred Cash Contribution Amount shall be determined by converting
the amount of contributed Canadian Dollars to
3
United States Dollars based upon the spot rate at the close of business
on the business day immediately prior to the Due Date, or, if earlier, the
business day immediately prior to the day such Midfield Member contributes
Canadian Dollars to the Company.
1.3. Section 9.1(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended to add the following to the beginning
of the second sentence thereof:

hereby amended to add the following immediately before subclause (i) thereof:
, Section 6.5 (Midfield Members) and the definition of “Equity Call Purchase
Price”
1.6. Section 14.19 is hereby amended to add the following at the end thereof:
Each of the Units shall be a “security” for the purposes of the Securities
Transfer Act, or the equivalent enactment (if any), of each Province or
Territory of Canada.
1.7. A new Section 14.20 is added to the Agreement as follows:
4
Section 14.20 Certificates for Deferred Common Units. All Deferred
Common Units shall be represented by certificates (“Deferred Common
Certificates”). At such time as Deferred Common Units no longer are
Deferred Common Units, the Company may cancel such certificates and in such
case such Common Units that were previously Deferred Common Units shall be
uncertificated. In order to provide for the safekeeping of the Deferred
Common Certificates and to facilitate the enforcement of the terms and
conditions hereof, all Deferred Common Certificates shall be held by the
Company on behalf of the Midfield Members. Each Midfield Member hereby
irrevocably appoints the Company as his or her true and lawful agent and
attorney-in-fact, with full powers of substitution, to act in such Midfield
Member’s name, place and stead, to do or refrain from doing all such acts
and things, and to execute and deliver all such documents, as the Company
shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection with a public offering of
securities of the Company or a sale pursuant to Section 12.8, including,
without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the case of
a sale pursuant to Section 12.8, to execute and deliver on behalf of such
Midfield Member a purchase and sale agreement and any other agreements and
documents that the Company deems necessary in connection with any such sale,
and in the case of a public offering, to execute and deliver on behalf of
such Midfield Member an underwriting agreement, a “hold back” agreement, a
custody agreement, and any other agreements and documents that the Company
deems necessary in connection with any such public offering, and in the case
of any sale pursuant to Section 12.8 and any public offering, to receive on
behalf of such Midfield Member the proceeds of the sale or public offering
of such Midfield Member’s Units, to hold back from any such proceeds any
amount that the Company deems necessary to reserve against such Midfield
Member’s share of any expenses of sale and sale obligations. Each Midfield
Member hereby ratifies and confirms all that the Company shall do or cause
to be done by virtue of its appointment as his or her agent and
attorney-in-fact. In acting for each Midfield Member pursuant to the
appointment set forth in this Section 14.20, the Company shall not be
responsible to any Midfield Member for any loss or damage a Midfield Member
may suffer by reason of the performance by the Company of its duties under
this Agreement, except for loss or damage arising from willful violation of
law or gross negligence by the Company in the performance of its duties
hereunder. The appointment of the Company shall be deemed coupled with an
interest and as such shall be irrevocable and shall survive the death,
incompetency, mental illness or insanity of the Midfield Member, and any
person dealing with the Company may conclusively and absolutely rely,
without inquiry, upon any act of the Company as the act of such Midfield
Member in all matters referred to in this Section 14.20.
2. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have
the meanings given to them in the Agreement (as in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness
5
of this Amendment).
3. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the state of Delaware.
