(the "Issuer") pursuant to an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of April 29, 1996, by and among the Issuer, Patriot Acquisition Corporation and Revere (the "Merger Agreement"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings as in this Schedule 13D filing prior to this Amendment No. 2. Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction ITEM 4 OF THIS STATEMENT IS HEREBY AMENDED AND RESTATED TO READ IN ITS ENTIRETY AS FOLLOWS: On March 27, 1997, the Issuer completed its acquisition of Revere pursuant to the Merger Agreement (the "Acquisition"). Also on that date, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of May 31, 1996 (the "Zurich Agreement"), between the Issuer and Zurich Insurance Company ("Zurich"), Zurich purchased 9,523,810 shares of Common Stock (the "Zurich Shares") for an aggregate cash price of $300 million. The net proceeds from the Zurich Agreement were used by the Issuer to fund a portion of the cash payments being made to Revere stockholders in connection with the Acquisition. Mrs. Heffner is a party to the following five agreements which are related to the Merger Agreement and the Zurich Agreement: - 3 - 1. Voting Agreement To implement the Acquisition, it was necessary for the Issuer to obtain the approval of its stockholders for (i) an amendment to the Issuer's certificate of incorporation to in crease its authorized capital (the "Charter Amendment") and (ii) the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Such approval was obtained at a Special Meeting of the Stockholders of the Issuer held on December 31, 1996 (the "Special Meeting"). At the Special Meeting, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Voting Agreement dated as of April 29, 1996, among Textron Inc., the principal stockholder of Revere ("Textron"), Revere and certain stockholders of the Issuer including Mrs. Heffner (the "Voting Agreement"), Mrs. Heffner voted 457,602 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer which she owned of record and beneficially in favor of the Charter Amendment and the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The Voting Agreement was also signed, in each case with Mrs. Heffner's consent as a co-trustee, by The Maclellan Foundation, Inc. (the "Foundation") (see paragraph (2) of Item 5(a) and (b) below) and two trusts -- the R.J. Maclellan Trust for the Hugh O. Maclellan, Sr. Family and the Cora L. Maclellan Trust for the Hugh O. Maclellan, Sr. Family (collectively, the "Maclellan Trusts") (see paragraph (3) of Item 5(a) and (b) below). At the Special Meeting, pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Foundation and the Maclellan Trusts voted the shares of Common Stock which they owned of record and beneficially (an aggregate of 9,368,609 - 4 - shares) in favor of the Charter Amendment and the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement. 2. Maclellan Family Stockholder Agreement Zurich entered into an Agreement dated as of May 31, 1996 (the "Family Stockholder Agreement") with the Foundation, trusts for the benefit of the Foundation, certain members of the Maclellan family including Mrs. Heffner, and certain trusts connected with the Maclellan family (collectively, the "Maclellan Stockholders"). Pursuant to the Family Stockholder Agreement, certain of the Maclellan Stockholders, including Mrs. Heffner, voted all the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them (an aggregate of approximately 18,350,000 shares) at the Special Meeting in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Charter Amendment, and in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Zurich Agreements. Also in the Family Stockholder Agreement, each of the Maclellan Stockholders agreed that, until the earlier of (i) such time as Zurich and its affiliates beneficially own less than 5% of the Issuer's voting securities (as defined), and (ii) March 27, 2004, such Maclellan Stockholder will, prior to making any sale or transfer of shares of Common Stock, give Zurich notice of any intention to sell or transfer and the terms of such intended sale or transfer. Zurich will then have the right to purchase such shares at the same terms. This right of first offer is not applicable to the transfer of shares (x) pursuant to a change of control (as defined in the Family Stockholder Agreement), (y) - 5 - pursuant to certain permitted transfers, including transfers among Maclellan Stockholders, and (z) in connection with any sale of at least 70% of the shares then held by the Maclellan Stockholders pursuant to a firm commitment underwritten registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Notwithstanding its rights of first offer under the Family Stockholder Agreement, Zurich has undertaken to the Issuer that in general, until March 27, 2004, Zurich and its affiliates will not acquire "Voting Securities" of the Issuer (defined as all classes of capital stock of the Issuer which are then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors) in amounts which would cause the percentage of Zurich's voting power in the election of the Issuer's directors ("Voting Power") to exceed the percentage of Voting Power represented by the Zurich Shares immediately following the consummation of the Merger and the issuance of the Zurich Shares (the "Initial Threshold Percent age"). Mrs. Heffner has been advised by the Issuer that the Initial Threshold Percentage is approximately 14.24%. However, Zurich and its affiliates are not prohibited from acquiring Voting Securities that would cause Zurich and its affiliates to exceed the Initial Threshold Percentage if (i) such Voting Securities are acquired from the Maclellan Stockholders or are acquired from Textron (with certain restrictions and limitations) - -------- Currently, the outstanding shares of Common Stock are the only outstanding Voting Securities of the Issuer. - 6 - or are acquired from other persons under certain limited circumstances, and (ii) after giving effect to such acquisition of Voting Securities, Zurich and its affiliates would not beneficially own Voting Securities of the Issuer representing more than 40% of the outstanding Voting Power. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Zurich may acquire Voting Securities from the Maclellan Stockholders in amounts that exceed the 40% limitation if Zurich first offers to purchase all of the outstanding Voting Securities of the Issuer at the same price pursuant to either a tender offer to all stockholders or a binding merger agreement. 3. Family Stockholder Supplementary Agreement In an effort to coordinate sales of shares of Common Stock by the Maclellan Stockholders, the Maclellan Stockholders have entered into a Family Stockholder Supplementary Agreement dated as of April 21, 1997 (the "Supplementary Agreement"). Under the Supplementary Agreement, which will terminate upon the termination of the Family Stockholder Agreement, in the event that a Maclellan Stockholder receives an unsolicited purchase offer from Zurich or any other person that such Maclellan Stock holder intends to accept, and such offer is to acquire more than $250,000 of Common Stock, such Maclellan Stockholder (the "Notifying Stockholder") shall use reasonable efforts to promptly notify all other Maclellan Stockholders of such purchase offer, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock that the purchaser has offered to purchase and the amount of consideration offered per share, and shall use its reasonable efforts to permit - 7 - the other Maclellan Stockholders to participate with the Notifying Stockholder in a sale of Common Stock to the purchaser. If one or more other Maclellan Stockholders decide to participate in such a sale, and the aggregate number of shares that all Maclellan Stockholders desire to sell exceeds the purchaser's offer, the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold by each participating Maclellan Stockholder will be in the same proportion that the number of shares offered for sale by each such Maclellan Stockholder bears to the total number of shares offered for sale by all Maclellan Stockholders, so that the resultant aggregate number of shares to be offered for sale shall be equal to the purchaser's offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Maclellan Stockholder may initiate and consummate a sale of Common Stock to any person. 4. Registration Rights Agreement As an inducement to the Maclellan Stockholders to enter into the Family Stockholder Agreement, the Issuer entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated as of May 31, 1996 (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with the Maclellan Stockholders, pursuant to which, subject to certain conditions and limitations, the Issuer agreed to register under the Securities Act of 1933 the sale of the shares of Common Stock now or hereafter held by one or more Maclellan Stockholders. In general, the Issuer has granted the Maclellan Stockholders "demand" registration rights to request eight - 8 - separate registrations, each of which must cover (A) shares of Common Stock having an aggregate expected offering price of at least $10,000,000, or (B) all the shares of Common Stock then held by the Maclellan Stockholders. "Blackout" periods which have the effect of delaying a demand registration (either because it would adversely affect a pending public offering of securities by the Company, or because the filing of a demand registration statement would require disclosure of material information which the Issuer has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential) are provided for limited periods. The Registration Agreement also grants the Maclellan Stockholders "piggyback" registration rights to have any or all of their shares of Common Stock included in any registration statement filed by the Issuer for a public sale of its Voting Equity Securities (as defined), subject to limitations determined by the managing underwriter of an underwritten offering to be necessary for the successful marketing of the securities being distributed by underwriters. 5. Lock-Up Agreement Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the 37,500,000 shares of Revere common stock owned by Textron were converted at the effective time of the Acquisition into $750 million in cash and 5,917,500 shares of Common Stock (the "Textron Shares"). Textron agreed to use its reasonable efforts to sell for cash all the Textron Shares as soon as practicable after the Acquisition, subject to certain conditions. Textron sold the Textron Shares - 9 - on May 6, 1997, pursuant to a firm commitment underwritten public offering (the "Textron Offering"). In furtherance of the Textron Offering, each Maclellan Stockholder holding more than 50,000 shares of Common Stock, including Mrs. Heffner, has entered into an agreement (the "Lock-Up Agreement"), which provides that, without the prior written consent of Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated ("Morgan Stanley"), on behalf of the underwriters of the Textron Offering, such Maclellan Stockholders will not, prior to August 4, 1997, (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (provided that such shares or securities were acquired by them prior to or in connection with the Textron Offering), or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such shares of Common Stock. However, a Maclellan Stockholder may dispose of any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (A) pursuant to a bona fide gift between or among family members or the estate of such stockholder (including any transfer by such stockholder to or among any trust, foundation, custodial or other similar accounts or funds in which such stockholder or other - 10 - member of his or her family serves as trustee or custodian or in a similar fiduciary capacity, or to a trust created by any such stockholder which has a member of his or her immediate family as a beneficiary) and (B) pursuant to any transfer to any organization, which transfer qualifies for the federal income tax charitable deduction at the time of such transfer; provided that in the case of (A) or (B) above, the transferee is then bound by or agrees to be bound by the restrictions described in this paragraph from the date of such transfer until August 4, 1997. In addition, the Maclellan Stockholders agreed that, without the prior written consent of Morgan Stanley on behalf of the under- writers, such stockholders will not, prior to August 4, 1997, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock. * * * Apart from the foregoing, Mrs. Heffner currently has no plan or proposal, as a stockholder of the Issuer, which relates to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; - 11 - (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of the assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plan or proposal to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer's charter or by-laws or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) a class of securities of the Issuer being delisted from a national securities exchange or ceasing to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"); or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above. However, such plans or proposals may have been considered, and may from time to time hereafter be considered, by Mrs. Heffner in her capacity as a director of the Issuer. - 12 - Item 5.
