The information provided with respect to the Stockholders Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced by the following:
The Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement, dated as of September 29, 2017, among the signatories thereto and the Company (the Stockholders Agreement), filed as Exhibit 15 hereto and incorporated herein by reference, requires a signatory to offer the shares of Class B Common beneficially owned by such signatory to all of the other signatories upon the occurrence of either of the following: (a) the proposed conversion of shares of Class B Common by such signatory into shares of Class A Common and (b) the proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of Class B Common by such signatory to any permitted transferee (under the terms of the Class B Common) who is not a signatory to the Stockholders Agreement. In either of these cases, the signatory proposing to enter into one of these transactions must notify all of the other signatories and then must allow each such other signatory the opportunity to purchase such signatorys pro rata portion of the shares of Class B Common that are subject to the proposed transaction in accordance with the procedures described below. The Stockholders Agreement, however, does not restrict transfers of Class B Common among the signatories or any other permitted transferee who becomes a signatory to the Stockholders Agreement.
A signatory proposing to engage in a transaction triggering a right of first refusal must first give written notice of the proposed transaction by registered mail to the Company, which acts as depository under the Stockholders Agreement. The depository, in turn, is required to send such notice promptly to all of the other signatories. Following receipt of such notice, each other signatory will have seven business days to elect whether or not to purchase his, her or its pro rata portion of the shares of the Class B Common which have triggered a right of first refusal. A signatorys pro rata portion will be determined by dividing the number of shares of Class B Common which such person owns by the number of shares of Class B Common which are owned by all of the other signatories who similarly may elect to purchase the shares of Class B Common which have triggered the right of first refusal. A notice electing to purchase a pro rata portion of the shares of Class B Common must be sent to the depository by the end of the seven business day period. If the signatories electing to purchase do not elect to purchase all of the shares of Class B Common, then such signatories have an additional five business days to agree among themselves how to allocate the shares not purchased. If they cannot reach any agreement, the allocation shall be pro rata. If there are still shares of Class B Common which are not purchased following such allocation, then the Company shall have an additional three business days to decide whether or not to purchase the remaining shares. The Company, however, is under no obligation to purchase any such shares.
Following the completion of such procedures, the signatory who has triggered the right of first refusal is free, for a period of 30 business days, to convert the shares of Class B Common, if any, which remain, into shares of Class A Common. If the signatory had originally proposed to transfer the shares, such signatory would be free to transfer shares of Class A Common in accordance with the originally proposed transaction.
Signatories who elect to exercise the right of first refusal and purchase shares of Class B Common may pay for such shares in cash, an equivalent number of shares of Class A Common, or in a combination of cash and shares of Class A Common. The purchase price to be paid is the higher of what is specified in the notice sent by the signatory who has triggered the right of first refusal and the average of the last sales price of Class A Common on the New York Stock Exchange for the five days prior to the date of such notice.
The Stockholders Agreement only restricts the conversion, or the sales or other disposition outside of the Stockholders Agreement, of shares of Class B Common held by each signatory. The Stockholders Agreement does not restrict in any respect how a signatory may vote the shares of Class B Common that are subject to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement. This description of the transfer restrictions, rights of first refusal and repurchase obligations is qualified by reference to the Stockholders Agreement.
The information provided with respect to the Transfer Restriction Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced by the following:
Under the terms of the Transfer Restriction Agreement, dated as of September 29, 2017 (the TRA), filed as Exhibit 16 hereto and incorporated herein by reference, Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company, the Company, and certain signatories thereto have agreed to certain restrictions on transactions involving securities of Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company or the Company. Absent a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), an unqualified tax opinion from approved counsel, or approval by Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company as the administrator of the TRA, the TRA prohibits members of the Companys extended founding family, for a two-year period following September 29, 2017, from (a) acquiring any stock of either the Company or Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company (other than acquisitions of stock pursuant to an equity compensation plan of either the Company or Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company) or (b) transferring directly or indirectly any stock owned by the extended founding family.
The TRA further provides that the five-percent voting limitation on transfers of Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company voting power will be converted to a 35-percent limitation if the Company or Hamilton Beach Brands Holding Company obtains a private letter ruling from the IRS or an unqualified tax opinion substantially to the effect that the increase in voting power by holders of Class B Common by reason of the conversion by other holders of Class B Common to Class A Common will not be taken into account for purposes of Section 355(e) of the Internal Revenue Code.
