These unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Results of operations in interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year due partially to seasonality.

NOTE 4. Fair Value Measurement
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and long term debt approximated fair value as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
We consider as cash equivalents all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our cash and temporary investments were with high quality financial institutions in Demand Deposit Accounts.
Restricted investments included $22.0 million and $20.8 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, of mutual funds which are reported at fair value.
The fair value measurement of these securities is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets which are defined as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy in the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic of the Codification.
NOTE 5. Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements
We have standby letters of credit that expire at various dates in 2014 and 2015. As of June 30, 2014, our letters of credit were $6.1 million.
Our unused and available borrowings under our bank revolving line of credit were $43.9 million as of June 30, 2014 and $44.8 million as of December 31, 2013. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of June 30, 2014.
In January 2014, we entered into various Equipment Notes (Notes). The Notes are secured by the 200 Freightliner tractors financed in the agreement. The Notes have terms that expire between January 15, 2019 and February 28, 2019 and bear interest at rates between 1.87% and 1.93%. The Notes require monthly principal and interest payments of $0.4 million.

NOTE 6. Guarantees
As a recruiting tool for our owner-operators, we are guaranteeing certain owner-operators lease payments for tractors. The guarantees expire at various dates through 2020.
The potential maximum exposure under these lease guarantees was approximately $34.4 million and $39.0 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The potential maximum exposure represents the amount of the remaining lease payments on all outstanding guaranteed leases as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. However, upon default, we have the option to purchase the tractors. We could then sell the tractors and use the proceeds to recover all or a portion of the amounts paid under the guarantees. Alternatively, we can contract with another owner-operator who would assume the lease. There were no material defaults during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 or the year ended December 31, 2013 and no potential material defaults.
We had a liability of approximately $0.5 million as of June 30, 2014 and $0.7 million as of December 31, 2013, for the guarantees representing the fair value of the guarantees based on a discounted cash-flow analysis which is included in current and non-current liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We are amortizing the amounts over the remaining lives of the respective guarantees.
NOTE 7. Commitments and Contingencies
During the fourth quarter of 2013, we exercised our purchase option on approximately 2,000 containers that are currently leased. The purchases totaling approximately $7.8 million will occur as the leases expire throughout 2014. As of June 30, 2014, we have purchased approximately 1,750 containers with the remaining 250 containers, for approximately $0.9 million, to be purchased in the second half of the year.
In March 2014, we entered into an equipment purchase contract for the acquisition of 300 Freightliner tractors. The total purchase price of these tractors is approximately $39.3 million. We expect to take delivery of the equipment between July and December 2014.
In April 2014, we entered into equipment purchase contracts for the acquisition of up to 4,000 containers. We have decided to acquire 3,500 new 53 containers at a total cost of $38.3 million. We expect to take delivery of the equipment between June and November 2014. As of June 30, 2014, we have received 418 containers.
We intend to finance the purchase of the new containers and tractors with secured fixed rate debt.

NOTE 8. Legal Matters
We are a party to litigation incident to our business, including claims for personal injury and/or property damage, bankruptcy preference claims, and claims regarding freight lost or damaged in transit, improperly shipped or improperly billed. Some of the lawsuits to which we are party are covered by insurance and are being defended by our insurance carriers. Some of the lawsuits are not covered by insurance and we defend those ourselves. We do not believe that the outcome of this litigation will have a materially adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
On January 25, 2013, a complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California (Sacramento Division) by Salvador Robles against our subsidiary, Comtrak Logistics, Inc., now known as Hub Group Trucking, Inc. Mr. Robles drove a truck for Hub Group Trucking in California, first as an independent contractor and then as an employee. The action seeks class certification on behalf of a class comprised of present and former California-based truck drivers for Hub Group Trucking who were classified as independent contractors, from January 2009 to the present. The complaint alleges Hub Group Trucking has misclassified such drivers as independent contractors and that such drivers were employees. The complaint asserts various violations of the California Labor Code and claims that Hub Group Trucking has engaged in unfair competition practices. The complaint seeks, among other things, declaratory and injunctive relief, compensatory damages and attorneys fees. In May 2013, the complaint was amended to add similar claims based on Mr. Robles status as an employed company driver. These additional claims are only on behalf of Mr. Robles and not a proposed class. In August 2013, the district court stayed proceedings in the case pending decisions by the Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit to decide whether the claims in two cases raising some similar claims should be dismissed on federal preemption grounds. In July 2014, the Court of Appeals ruled that the claims in those cases were not preempted. The parties have notified the district court of the 9th Circuits decisions and the case will now proceed. We cannot reasonably estimate at this time the possible loss or range of loss, if any, that may arise from this lawsuit.
NOTE 9. New Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Update No. 2014-09Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This Standard provides guidance on how to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For public organizations, the guidance in the Update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The update provides two transition methods to the new guidance: a retrospective approach and a modified retrospective approach. Early application is not permitted. We plan to adopt this standard January 1, 2017, as required. We are currently evaluating the effect this update will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an update to Topic 360 Property, Plant and Equipment and Topic 205 Presentation of Financial Statements: Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in the update change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations in Subtopic 25-20. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period and is to be applied prospectively. We plan to adopt this standard January 1, 2015, as required. We do not expect this new guidance to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Hub Group, Inc. (we, us or our) reports two distinct business segments, Hub and Mode. The Mode segment includes only the business we acquired on April 1, 2011. The Hub segment includes all businesses other than Mode. Hub Group (as opposed to just Hub), refers to the consolidated results for the whole company, including both the Mode and Hub segments. For the segment financial results, refer to Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

We are the largest intermodal marketing company (IMC) in the United States and a full service transportation provider offering intermodal, truck brokerage and logistics services. We operate through a nationwide network of operating centers and independent business owners.
As an IMC, we arrange for the movement of our customers freight in containers and trailers over long distances. We contract with railroads to provide transportation for the long-haul portion of the shipment and with local trucking companies, known as drayage companies, for local pickup and delivery. As part of the intermodal services, we negotiate rail and drayage rates, electronically track shipments in transit, consolidate billing and handle claims for freight loss or damage on behalf of our customers.
As of June 30, 2014, approximately 72% of Hubs drayage needs were met by our subsidiary, Hub Group Trucking, Inc., which assists us in providing reliable, cost effective intermodal services to our customers. Hub Group Trucking has terminals in Atlanta, Birmingham, Charlotte, Chattanooga, Chicago, Cleveland, Columbus (OH), Dallas, Hammond (IN), Harrisburg, Huntsville, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Kalamazoo, Kansas City, Milwaukee, Memphis, Nashville, Newark, Los Angeles, Perry (FL), Philadelphia, Portland (OR), Salt Lake City, Savannah, Seattle, St. Louis, Stockton, and Titusville (FL). As of June 30, 2014, Hub Group Trucking leased or owned 529 tractors, leased or owned 448 trailers, employed 697 drivers and contracted with 2,217 owner-operators.
We also arrange for the transportation of freight by truck, providing customers with another option for their transportation needs. We match the customers needs with carriers capacity to provide the most effective service and price combinations. As part of our truck brokerage services, we negotiate rates, track shipments in transit and handle claims for freight loss or damage on behalf of our customers.
Our logistics service consists of complex transportation management services, including load consolidation, mode optimization and carrier management. These service offerings are designed to take advantage of the increasing trend for shippers to outsource all or a greater portion of their transportation needs.
Hub has full time marketing representatives throughout North America who service local, regional and national accounts. We believe that fostering long-term customer relationships is critical to our success and allows us to better understand our customers needs and specifically tailor our transportation services to them.
Hubs yield management group works with pricing and operations to enhance Hubs customer margins. We are working on margin enhancement projects including matching up inbound and outbound loads, reducing empty miles, improving our recovery of accessorial costs, using Hub Group Trucking more, and eliminating or improving low contribution freight.
Hubs top 50 customers represent approximately 65% of the Hub segment revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014. We use various performance indicators to manage our business. We closely monitor margin and gains and losses for our top 50 customers. We also evaluate on-time performance, cost per load and daily sales outstanding by customer account. Vendor cost changes and vendor service issues are also monitored closely.
Mode has approximately 235 agents, consisting of 96 sales/operating agents, known as Independent Business Owners (IBOs), who sell and operate the business throughout North America and 139 sales only agents. Mode also has a company managed operation and corporate offices in Dallas, a temperature protected services division, Temstar, located in Oak Brook, IL and corporate offices in Memphis. Modes top 20 customers represent approximately 36% of the Mode segment revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014. We closely monitor revenue and margin for these customers. We believe Mode brings us highly complementary service offerings, more scale and a talented sales channel that allows us to better reach small and midsize customers.

Revenue
Hub Groups revenue increased 6.8% to $893.9 million in 2014 from $836.7 million in 2013.
The Hub segment revenue increased 5.8% to $682.0 million. Hub intermodal revenue increased 1.0% to $455.8 million. Volume was flat and price was up slightly. Hub truck brokerage revenue increased 6.4% to $86.4 million due to a 16% increase for price, fuel and mix combined, partially offset by a 10% decline in volume. Length of haul increased 8%. Hub logistics revenue increased 24.2% to $139.9 million due mostly to growth from customers that we onboarded last year.
Modes revenue increased 13.5% to $231.5 million in 2014 from $203.9 million in 2013. Modes intermodal revenue increased 19.5%, brokerage revenue increased 9.7% and logistics revenue increased 4.9%.
Gross Margin
Hub Groups gross margin increased 3.3% to $98.6 million in 2014 from $95.5 million in 2013.
The Hub segment gross margin decreased 1.0% to $70.7 million. Intermodal margin was down because of unfavorable timing of cost increases and worse equipment utilization due to rail service issues, partially offset by a modest increase in price. Truck brokerage gross margin increased because of customer price increases and more value added services. Logistics margin increased due to growth with customers we onboarded last year. Hubs gross margin as a percentage of revenue decreased to 10.4% as compared to last years 11.1% gross margin. The primary reason for the decline was due to intermodal because of a change in the mix of business and unfavorable timing of cost increases.
Modes gross margin increased 16.0% to $27.9 million in 2014 from $24.0 million in 2013 due to growth in all three service lines with the largest growth coming from intermodal. Modes gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased to 12.0% in 2014 from 11.8% in 2013.

Salaries and Benefits
As a percentage of revenue, Hub Groups salaries and benefits decreased to 4.0% in 2014 from 4.2% in 2013. Hub Groups salaries and benefits increased to $35.6 million in 2014 from $35.0 million in 2013. This increase was due to increased salaries of $1.0 million due to higher headcount and merit increases, compensation related to restricted stock of $0.2 million, payroll taxes of $0.1 million and employee benefits of $0.1 million, partially offset by decreases in bonus expense of $0.7 million and commissions of $0.1 million.
The Hub segment increase of $0.8 million to $32.0 million in 2014 from $31.2 million in 2013 was due to increases in salaries of $1.1 million due to higher headcount and merit increases and payroll taxes of $0.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in bonus expense of $0.4 million.
Modes decrease of $0.3 million to $3.5 million in 2014 from $3.8 million in 2013 was due primarily to decreases in bonus expense of $0.2 million and salaries of $0.1 million.
Hub Groups headcount as of June 30, 2014 was 1,481, which excludes drivers, as driver costs are included in transportation costs. As of June 30, 2014, Mode had 124 employees.
Agent Fees and Commissions
Hub Groups agent fees and commissions expenses increased to $15.5 million in 2014 from $13.7 million in 2013. These expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 1.7% in 2014 from 1.6% in 2013.
The Hub segment agent fees and commissions decrease of $0.3 million was due to a declining Hub agent program.
The Mode segment agent fees and commissions increased to $15.5 million in 2014 from $13.3 million in 2013. The increase of $2.2 million was due to the increase in Modes gross margin.
General and Administrative
Hub Groups general and administrative expenses remained consistent at $14.7 million in both 2014 and 2013. As a percentage of revenue, these expenses decreased to 1.6% in 2014 from 1.8% in 2013.
15
The Hub segment decrease of $0.5 million was due primarily to decreases in rent expense of $0.6 million, bad debt expense of $0.2 million and outside consultant expenses of $0.1 million. These decreases were partially offset by increases in travel and entertainment expense of $0.2 million and outside sales commissions of $0.2 million.
Modes general and administrative expenses increased to $1.9 million in 2014 from $1.4 million in 2013. The increase in expenses was primarily due to a decrease in gain on sale of fixed assets in 2014 of $0.2 million, an increase in bad debt expense of $0.2 million and an increase in repairs and maintenance of $0.1 million.
Depreciation and Amortization
Hub Groups depreciation and amortization increased to $1.9 million in 2014 from $1.6 million in 2013. This expense as a percentage of revenue remained constant at 0.2% in both 2014 and 2013.
The Hub segments depreciation expense increase of $0.5 million was related primarily to depreciation for the new corporate headquarters.
Modes depreciation expense was $0.3 million for 2014 as compared to $0.5 million in 2013. The decrease in expense was primarily related to less depreciation related to computer software.
Other Income (Expense)
Total other expense increased to $0.4 million in 2014 from $0.3 million in 2013 due primarily to the increased interest expense related to our tractor debt.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes increased to $11.8 million in 2014 from $11.6 million in 2013. Our effective rate was 38.8% in 2014 and 38.4% in 2013. The 2014 effective tax rate was higher primarily due to the cumulative effect of income tax changes among the states and a change enacted by the state of Rhode Island on June 16, 2014. We expect our effective tax rate for the whole year to be 38.9%.
Net Income
Net income increased to $18.7 million in 2014 from $18.6 million in 2013 due primarily to higher gross margin.
Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share were $0.51 in 2014 and $0.50 in 2013. Basic earnings per share increased primarily due to the increase in gross margin.
Diluted earnings per share were $0.51 in 2014 and $0.50 in 2013. Diluted earnings per share increased primarily due to the increase in gross margin.

The Hub segment revenue increased 7.9% to $1.3 billion. Hub intermodal revenue increased 1.3% to $891.2 million due to a 0.6% increase in loads and an increase for price and mix partially offset by lower fuel. Hub truck brokerage revenue increased 4.5% to $170.4 million due to an increase for price, mix and fuel combined of 12.1%, partially offset by a 7.6% decrease in volume. Hub logistics revenue increased 40.9% to $273.9 million related primarily to new customers onboarded last year.
Modes revenue increased 12.5% to $440.4 million in 2014 from $391.4 million in 2013. Modes intermodal revenue increased 17.7%, truck brokerage revenue increased 8.0% and logistics revenue increased 8.2%.
Gross Margin
Hub Groups gross margin increased 2.5% to $187.3 million in 2014 from $182.8 million in 2013.
The Hub segment gross margin decreased 1.0% to $135.2 million. Hubs $1.4 million gross margin decrease came from intermodal partially offset by an increase in logistics and truck brokerage gross margin. The first quarter weather related impact in intermodal was approximately $2.2 million and included a couple of percentage points of lost volume, sub optimization of the network, slower box turns, increased equipment and accessorial costs, higher fuel and accidents. In addition, second quarter intermodal margin was down because of unfavorable timing of cost increases and worse equipment utilization due to rail service issues, partially offset by a modest increase in price. Truck brokerage gross margin increased because of customer price increases and more value added services. Logistics margin increased due primarily to growth with customers we onboarded last year. As a percentage of Hub segment revenue, gross margin decreased to 10.1% in 2014 from 11.0% in 2013. The primary reason for the decline was due to intermodal because of a change in the mix of business, unfavorable timing of cost increases and weather related costs.
Modes gross margin increased 12.8% to $52.1 million in 2014 from $46.2 million in 2013 due to an increase in all three service lines with the largest increases coming from truck brokerage and intermodal. Modes gross margin as a percentage of revenue remained consistent at 11.8% in both 2014 and 2013.

Salaries and Benefits
Hub Groups salaries and benefits increased to $72.6 million in 2014 from $69.6 million in 2013. As a percentage of revenue, salaries and benefits decreased to 4.2% in 2014 from 4.3% in 2013.
The Hub segment increase of $3.4 million to $65.4 million in 2014 from $62.0 million in 2013 was due primarily to increases in salaries of $3.0 million due to higher headcount and merit increases, employee benefits of $0.4 million, compensation related to restricted stock of $0.3 million and payroll taxes of $0.2 million, partially offset by a decrease in bonus expense of $0.3 million and commissions of $0.2 million.
Modes salaries and benefits expense decreased to $7.3 million in 2014 from $7.6 million in 2013. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in bonus expense of $0.4 million, partially offset by an increase in compensation related to restricted stock of $0.1 million.
Agent Fees and Commissions
Hub Groups agent fees and commissions expenses increased to $29.2 million in 2014 from $27.0 million in 2013. As a percentage of revenue, these expenses remained consistent at 1.7% in both 2014 and 2013.
The Hub segment agent fees and commissions decrease of $0.8 million was due to a declining Hub agent program.
The Mode segment agent fees and commissions increased to $29.2 million in 2014 from $26.2 million in 2013. The increase of $3.0 million was due to the increase in gross margin.
General and Administrative
Hub Groups general and administrative expenses increased to $30.1 million in 2014 from $27.9 million in 2013. As a percentage of revenue, these expenses decreased to 1.7% in 2014 from 1.8% in 2013.
The Hub segment increase to $26.6 million in 2014 from $25.0 million in 2013 was due primarily to increases in outside consultant expenses of $1.4 million, travel and entertainment expenses of $0.3 million, outside sales commissions of $0.3 million, temporary labor expense of $0.2 million, office expense of $0.2 million, repairs and maintenance of $0.2 million, general insurance of $0.1 million and equipment leases of $0.1 million. These increases were partially offset by decreases in rent of $1.0 million and bad debt expense of $0.3 million.
18
Modes general and administrative expenses increased to $3.6 million in 2014 from $2.9 million in 2013. The increase was primarily due to a lower gain on the sale of equipment in 2014 as compared to 2013 of $0.4 million, higher bad debt expense of $0.2 million and higher repairs and maintenance expense of $0.1 million.
Depreciation and Amortization
Hub Groups depreciation and amortization increased to $3.9 million in 2014 from $3.1 million in 2013. This expense as a percentage of revenue remained constant at 0.2% in both 2014 and 2013.
The Hub segments depreciation expense increased to $3.1 million in 2014 from $2.1 million in 2013. This increase of $1.0 million was related primarily to depreciation for the new corporate headquarters.
Modes depreciation expense was $0.9 million for 2014 as compared to $1.1 million in 2013. The decrease in expense was primarily related to less depreciation related to computer software.
Other Income (Expense)
Total other expense increased to $1.0 million in 2014 from $0.5 million in 2013 due primarily to the increased interest expense related to our tractor debt and foreign currency translation losses.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes decreased to $19.7 million in 2014 from $20.7 million in 2013. Our effective rate was 39.1% in 2014 and 37.8% in 2013. The 2014 effective tax rate was higher primarily due to income tax changes enacted by the state of New York on March 31, 2014 and to a lesser extent, the expiration of the Federal Research Credit on January 1, 2014. We expect our effective tax rate for the whole year to be 38.9%.
Net Income
Net income decreased to $30.7 million in 2014 from $34.0 million in 2013 due primarily to higher costs and expenses.
Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share decreased to $0.84 in 2014 from $0.92 in 2013. Basic earnings per share decreased primarily due to the decrease in net income.
Diluted earnings per share decreased to $0.84 in 2014 from $0.92 in 2013. Diluted earnings per share decreased primarily due to the decrease in net income.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the first half of 2014, we funded operations, capital expenditures, capital leases, repayments of debt and stock buy backs related to employee withholding upon vesting of restricted stock through cash flows from operations, cash on hand and proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt. We believe that our cash, cash flow from operations and borrowings available under our Credit Agreement and from other sources will be sufficient to meet our cash needs for at least the next twelve months.
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was approximately $31.6 million, which resulted primarily from income of $30.7 million and adjustments for non-cash charges of $23.5 million partially offset by the change in operating assets and liabilities of $22.6 million.
19
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $46.1 million, which included proceeds from the sale of equipment of $0.3 million and capital expenditures of $46.4 million. Capital expenditures consisted primarily of tractors of $24.5 million, containers of $8.7 million, new corporate headquarters of $7.4 million and the remainder for technology investments. We expect capital expenditures to be between $131 million and $141 million in 2014.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $18.7 million, which resulted from proceeds from the issuance of debt of $25.4 million and excess tax benefits from share-based compensation of $0.2 million, partially offset by $3.2 million of cash for stock tendered for payments of withholding taxes, $2.5 million for repayment of debt and $1.2 million for capital lease payments.
We have standby letters of credit that expire at various dates in 2014. As of June 30, 2014, our letters of credit were $6.1 million.
As further discussed in Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements, in January 2014, we incurred additional borrowings of $25.4 million, which require monthly principal and interest payments of $0.4 million through February 2019. Our unused and available borrowings under our bank revolving line of credit were $43.9 million as of June 30, 2014 and $44.8 million as of December 31, 2013. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of June 30, 2014.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates on our bank line of credit which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. We have no significant exposure to foreign currency exchange rate changes. No derivative financial instruments were outstanding as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. We do not use financial instruments for trading purposes.
We have both fixed and variable rate debt as described in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Any material increase in market interest rates would not have a material impact on the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, other than our outstanding letters of credit, we had no outstanding obligations under our bank line of credit arrangement.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of June 30, 2014, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with such evaluation that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Section 2.2 Transfers Pursuant to a Right of First Refusal.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.2(b), if a Stockholder (the Offering Stockholder) desires to Transfer all or any portion of its shares of Class B Stock (all or such portion, as applicable, is hereinafter referred to as the Offered Interest) to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, the Offering Stockholder shall first deliver to each other Stockholder (the Offerees), a written notice (the Offer) setting forth an offer to sell the Offered Interest, pro rata to each Offeree in accordance with its percentage ownership of Class B Stock, for a specified cash dollar amount per share (which price in the event of a conversion of Class B Stock pursuant to the Companys Certificate of Incorporation or any other Transfer for which a price is not specified (such as a sale at prevailing market prices or a share exchange), shall be the closing sale price of the shares of Class A Stock on the principal stock market on which the Class A Stock is listed or quoted on the date of the notice) and on specified terms and conditions. For a period of 14 days after receipt by the Offeree of an Offer, the Offeree shall have a first right to purchase its pro rata portion of the Offered Interest. To exercise its rights hereunder, an Offeree must deliver to the Offering Stockholder a written notice setting forth the number of shares of Class B Stock such Offeree desires to purchase and, if such Offeree desires to purchase more than its pro rata portion of the Offered Interest, a statement of the maximum additional amount of the Offered Interest such Offeree would purchase if the other Offerees elect not to purchase their pro rata share. If the Offering Shareholder is a DPY Permitted Transferee and the Offerees that are DPY Permitted Transferees have not timely exercised their rights to purchase in the aggregate 100% of the Offered Interests, the Offering Shareholder shall deliver to each other DPY Permitted Transferee notice to that effect and offering the other DPY Permitted Transferees the opportunity to subscribe for additional shares of the Offered Interest on the terms and conditions specified in the Offer (a Second Offer). If the Offering Shareholder is a MAY Permitted Transferee and the Offerees that are MAY Permitted Transferees have not timely exercised their rights to purchase in the aggregate 100% of the Offered Interests, the Offering Shareholder shall deliver to each other MAY Permitted Transferee a Second Offer. Offerees shall have five days after receipt by the Offeree of a Second Offer to exercise its right to purchase additional shares of Offered Interests. If the Offering Shareholder is a DPY Permitted Transferee, shares of the Offered Interest shall be allocated first to the other DPY Permitted Transferees before any shares are allocated to any MAY Permitted Transferees. If the Offering Shareholder is a MAY Permitted Transferee, shares of the Offered Interest shall be allocated first to the other MAY Permitted Transferees before any shares of the Offered Interest are allocated to any DPY Permitted Transferees. Subject to the preferences stated in the preceding two sentences, shares of the Offered Interest shall be allocated to each Offeree that has timely exercised its right to purchase a portion of the Offered Interest pro rata, but not more than such Offerees desired maximum amount of shares of Class B Stock, in accordance with such Offerees percentage ownership of shares of Class B Stock.
(b) In the case of a proposal to merge the Company with or into another Person that is not a Permitted Transferee (a Merger) or a proposal by a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee to make an offer to the Companys shareholders to purchase all or a portion of the Companys shares (a Tender Offer), any Stockholder is
4
authorized to call a meeting of the Stockholders (the Takeover Meeting) and provide written notice to the Stockholders of such meeting specifying the date, time and place of such meeting. Stockholders may participate in such meeting in person (which may include presence by telephone conference call) or by proxy. The Takeover Meeting must occur before any Stockholder can cast a vote with respect to a Merger or tender shares of Class B Stock in the Tender Offer. Following such Takeover Meeting, any Stockholder desiring to Transfer shares of Class B Stock must follow the procedures specified in Section 2.2(a) prior to voting in favor of a Merger or tendering shares in the Tender Offer; provided, however, that the price per share for the Offered Interest shall be the cash dollar amount offered per share of Class B Stock in such transaction or, in the case of another form of consideration offered per share of Class B Stock, the cash equivalent of the fair market value of such other consideration; provided, further, that the Selling Shareholder shall not be obligated to sell any portion of the Offered Interest pursuant to Section 2.2(a) unless the Offerees purchase 100% of the Offered Interest.
(c) In the event that any Offerees shall have timely elected to purchase all or a portion, as applicable, of the Offered Interest in accordance with Sections 2.2(a) or 2.2(b), the Offering Stockholder (the Selling Stockholder) shall sell the Offered Interest to such Offerees (each a Purchasing Stockholder) at the price and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer, and the parties shall otherwise consummate said transaction no later than 15 days after the delivery of the Offer to the Offerees. In lieu of cash, any Offeree may elect to pay the purchase consideration in (i) cash, (ii) shares of Class A Stock having a fair market value determined two business days prior to the closing date equal to the purchase price of the Class B Stock being purchased by such Offeree or (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii).
(d) To the extent that (i) the Offerees have not elected to purchase all or a portion of the Offered Interest in accordance with Section 2.2(a) or (ii) the Offerees, on an aggregate basis, elected to purchase less than all of the Offered Interest in accordance with Section 2.2(b), the Offering Stockholder may (i) vote in favor of the Merger or tender shares of Class B Stock in the Tender Offer or (ii) within five days after the expiration of the Offerees right to purchase referred to in Sections 2.2(a), Transfer the unpurchased portion of the Offered Interest to a Person other than a Permitted Transferee. If the Merger or Tender Offer is terminated or after the expiration of such 5-day period, as the case may be, any proposed Transfer of all or any portion of the shares of Class B Stock held by the Offering Stockholder shall once again be subject to the provisions of this Section 2.2.
Section 2.3 Transfers to Permitted Transferees. A Stockholder may Transfer its shares of Class B Stock to a Permitted Transferee who is not a party to this Agreement if and only if such Permitted Transferee (or the guardian or other legal representative) has agreed in writing to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Section 2.4 Clawback. In the event that (i) any Offeree shall have timely elected to purchase all of the Offered Interest in accordance with Section 2.2(b) and (ii) within twelve (12) months after the consummation of the transaction pursuant to Section 2.2(c) any Purchasing Shareholder (the Transferring Purchaser) Transfers all or a portion of their purchased Offered
5
Interest (the Transferred Shares) at a price (in cash or the cash equivalent of the fair market value of such other consideration) greater than the purchase price paid pursuant to Section 2.2(c), then such Transferring Purchaser shall pay to each of the Selling Stockholders its pro rata portion with respect to the Transferred Shares an amount in cash equal to the amount by which the price per share of the Transferred Shares exceeds the purchase price paid for such shares pursuant to Section 2.2(c) (net of taxes paid or payable by such Transferring Purchaser in respect of the Transfer of such Transferred Shares). The parties shall pay such amount in cash no later than five days after the consummation of the Transferred Shares.
ARTICLE III
VOTING AGREEMENT
Section 3.1 Voting Agreement. Except as provided in Section 2.2, each Stockholder hereby agrees to vote all of its shares of Class B Stock or to cause all of its shares of Class B Stock to be voted as directed by a majority in interest of the outstanding shares of Class B Stock present at a meeting of the Stockholders called pursuant to Section 3.2 at which a quorum is present. In the event (i) that the voting of the Class B Stock present at a meeting of the Stockholders pursuant to Section 3.2 at which a quorum is present cannot be directed by a majority in interest of such outstanding shares of Class B Stock present because of a deadlock or (ii) because a quorum of the Stockholders present at a meeting called pursuant to Section 3.2 cannot be achieved after two attempts, each Stockholder hereby agrees to vote all of its shares of Class B Stock or to cause all of its shares of Class B Stock to be voted as recommended by the independent directors (as defined by NASDAQ) of the Board of Directors of the Company for the matter presented by the Company for stockholder action.
Section 3.2 Stockholder Vote. For purposes of effecting the agreement set forth in Section 3.1, the Stockholders shall, within five days after receipt by the Stockholders of a notice from the Company calling for a meeting and vote of its stockholders upon any matter, vote (in accordance with their percentage ownership of shares of Class B Stock) to determine how the Stockholders shall vote their shares of Class B Stock pursuant to Section 3.1. The vote required by this Section 3.2 shall take place at the Companys principal executive offices and Stockholders may participate in such vote in person (which may include presence by telephone conference call) or by proxy. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the Stockholders of a majority in interest of the outstanding shares of Class B Stock shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the Stockholders called pursuant to Section 3.2. In the absence of a quorum, the holders of a majority in interest of such shares of Class B Stock present in person or by proxy may adjourn such meeting, from time to time. Notice of a date to reconvene the meeting shall be provided to all Stockholders at least 24 hours in advance of such date. Any shares of Class B Stock not represented at such meeting shall be deemed to have voted as recommended by the independent directors (as defined by NASDAQ) of the Board of Directors of the Company for the matter presented by the Company for stockholder action.
Section 3.3 Action by Written Consent. In the event that any Stockholder desires that the Stockholders take any action by written consent, the Stockholder proposing such action shall deliver to the other Stockholders a written notice setting forth the matter proposed to be acted upon by the Stockholders and setting forth the date, time and place of the meeting of Stockholders to consider and act upon the proposal (which meeting shall take place within five
6
days after receipt by the Stockholders of such notice). At such meeting, the Stockholders shall vote (in accordance with their percentage ownership of shares of Class B Stock) to determine how the Stockholders shall vote their shares of Class B Stock pursuant to Section 3.1 for purposes of taking the proposed action. Stockholders may participate in the vote required by this Section 3.3 in person (which may include presence by telephone conference call) or by proxy.
