(b) Section 2 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following definitions of “Board of Directors,” “IPO,” “Parent,” “Parent Entity,” “Permitted Holder,” “Sponsors” and “Voting Stock” in their entirety, in the appropriate alphabetical order:
“Board of Directors” means, with respect to any Person, the board of managers, board of directors or comparable governing body of such Person (it being understood that, for example, in the case of a Person constituted as a sole-member-managed limited liability company or as a limited partnership with a sole general partner, the “comparable governing body of such Person” refers to the board of managers, board of directors or comparable governing body of the sole member or sole general partner, respectively.
“IPO” shall mean the issuance by Parent (or any Parent Entity of Parent) of its common Capital Stock in an underwritten primary public offering (other than a public offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8) pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933 (whether alone or in connection with a secondary public offering).
“Parent” means Velocity Financial LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and its successors.
“Parent Entity” means any direct or indirect parent of Parent that is a holding company with no material assets or operations other than holding (either directly or indirectly through one or more other Parent Entities) Capital Stock of Parent (excluding, for avoidance of doubt, any investment vehicle of any Sponsor).
“Permitted Holder” means (i) each of the Parent, the Sponsors, and members of management and other employees of the Parent (or any Parent Entity) or any of its Subsidiaries and any group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, or any successor provision) of which any of the foregoing are members; provided that, in the case of such group and without giving effect to the existence of such group or any other group, the Sponsors and members of management and other employees, collectively, have beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of the Parent or any Parent Entity and (ii) any Parent Entity (including a Parent Entity formed in connection with an initial public offering of the Parent) that is formed not in connection with, or in contemplation of, a transaction that (but for the application to such Person of this clause (ii)) would constitute a Change of Control.
