Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 14, 2007, Mortgage Guaranty Insurance Corporation (MGIC), a subsidiary of MGIC
Investment Corporation, Radian Guaranty Inc. (Radian), a subsidiary of Radian Group Inc., and an
entity (the Management Entity) owned by the management of Sherman Financial Group LLC (Sherman)
entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) pursuant to which the
Management Entity agreed to purchase interests in Sherman from both MGIC and Radian. In the
Purchase Agreement, Management Entity agreed to purchase from MGIC: (a) all of MGICs Preferred Units
in Sherman for a cash purchase price equal to $27,000,000 and (b) 1,425,335 Class A Common Units in
Sherman for a cash purchase price equal to $213,800,250 plus a contingent purchase price
that will be paid if Management Entitys return on its investment in the Class A Common Units
purchased exceeds a threshold that equates to an annual return of approximately 16%. The sale of
these interests was completed on September 19, 2007.
Prior to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, (a) MGIC and Radian each
held approximately 40.96% of the Class A Common Units and 50% of the Preferred Units in Sherman and
(b) the Management Entity and another entity owned by Shermans management held the remainder of
the Class A Common Units and all of the Class B Common Units in Sherman. In connection with the
closing of the transactions under the Purchase Agreement, the interests in Sherman were
recapitalized into a single class of interests. Giving effect to the transactions contemplated by
the Purchase Agreement and such recapitalization, MGIC owns approximately 24.25% of the interests
in Sherman, the Management Entity and the other entity owned by Shermans management owns
approximately 53.97% of the interests in Sherman and Radian owns the balance.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1, hereto and is hereby
incorporated into this report by reference.

Sherman Operating Agreement).
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations,
warranties, covenants, agreements and conditions hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally
bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows.
1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF UNITS
1.1 Preferred Units. On the Closing Date (as defined in Article 10 below), subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in consideration of the payment of one-half of the
Preferred Units Purchase Price (as defined in Section 2.1 below) to each Seller, each Seller shall
sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from each Seller, 300,000 Preferred Units of
Sherman (together, the Preferred Units), free and clear of all liens, charges, security
interests, options, claims, mortgages, pledges, proxies, voting trusts or agreements, obligations,
understandings or arrangements or other restrictions on title or transfer of any nature whatsoever
(collectively, Encumbrances), other than such Encumbrances as may arise under the
Existing Sherman Operating Agreement.
1.2 Class A Units. On the Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement:
1.2.(a) in consideration of the payment of one half of the MGIC/Radian Class A Units
Cash Purchase Price (as defined in Section 2.2 below) to MGIC and the Purchasers agreement
to pay to MGIC the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price (as defined in
Section 2.2 below), if any, in accordance with the terms hereof, MGIC shall sell to
Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from MGIC, 1,425,335
2
Class A Common Units of Sherman,
free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than such Encumbrances as may arise under the
Existing Sherman Operating Agreement;
1.2.(b) in consideration of the payment of one half of the MGIC/Radian Class A Units
Cash Purchase Price to Radian and the Purchasers agreement to pay to Radian the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price, if any, in accordance with the terms hereof, Radian
shall sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from Radian, 1,425,335 Class A Common
Units of Sherman, free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than such Encumbrances as may
arise under the Existing Sherman Operating Agreement. The interests in Sherman into which
the Class A Common Units that are to be sold to Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.2.(a) and
this Section 1.2.(b) are recapitalized in the Recapitalization and their percentage interest
in Sherman, as such percentage interest may exist from time to time, are referred to herein
as the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units); and
1.2.(c) in consideration of the payment of the Additional Radian Class A Units Purchase
Price (as defined in Section 2.2 below) to Radian, Radian shall sell to Purchaser, and
Purchaser shall purchase from Radian, 247,212 Class A Common Units of Sherman (the
Additional Radian Purchased Class A Units and together with the MGIC/Radian
Purchased Class A Units, the Purchased Class A Units), free and clear of all
Encumbrances, other than such Encumbrances as may arise under the Existing Sherman Operating
Agreement.
2. PURCHASE PRICE
2.1 Preferred Units. The purchase price for the Preferred Units shall be $54,000,000
(the Preferred Units Purchase Price), of which one-half shall be paid to MGIC and
one-half shall be paid to Radian.
2.2 Class A Units. The purchase price for the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units
sold under Sections 1.2.(a) and 1.2.(b) of this Agreement (the MGIC/Radian Class A Units
Purchase Price) shall be $427,600,500 (the MGIC/Radian Class A Units Cash Purchase
Price) plus the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price, of which one-half shall
be paid to MGIC and one-half shall be paid to Radian. The purchase price for the Additional Radian
Purchased Class A Units sold under Section 1.2.(c) of this Agreement (the Additional Radian
Class A Units Purchase Price) shall be $37,081,800 and shall be paid to Radian. For the
avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged and agreed between Purchaser and Radian that no
3
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price shall be due by Purchaser to Radian in respect of the
Additional Radian Purchased Class A Units.
2.2.(a) Determination of the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price.
(i) Definitions.
(A) Actual IRR. The Actual IRR means the internal rate
of return on the Net Cash Flows (as defined in Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(A)). The
Actual IRR shall be zero unless the sum of the Net Cash Flows for all calendar
months and any portions thereof during the Measurement Period is positive. If
that sum is positive, then the Actual IRR is the positive discount rate (with
compounding as of the end of each calendar month, and expressed as a monthly
rate) that causes the present value as of the CCAUPP Effective Date of the Net
Cash Flows for all calendar months and any portions thereof during the
Measurement Period to be zero.
(B) Agreed IRR. If the Actual IRR is greater than the Hurdle
IRR, the Agreed IRR is the arithmetic average of (i) the Hurdle IRR
and (ii) the Actual IRR.
(C) CCAUPP Effective Date. For purposes of calculating the
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price, the CCAUPP Effective
Date means September 1, 2007.
(D) Contingent Payment Interest Rate. The Contingent Payment
Interest Rate shall be one half of the Agreed IRR.
(E) Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price Before
Interest. The Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price
Before Interest is the amount that, if treated as a Cash Outflow on the
CCAUPP Effective Date, would cause the present value of the Net Cash Flows for
all calendar months and any portions thereof during the Measurement Period
calculated using the Agreed IRR as the discount rate to equal zero. For the
avoidance of doubt, if the Actual IRR is equal to or less than the Hurdle IRR,
the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price Before Interest is $0.
4
(F) Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price. The
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price is the
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price Before Interest times an
interest factor that is obtained by adding one and the Contingent Payment
Interest Rate, and raising such sum to a power equal to the number of full
calendar months in the Measurement Period.
(G) Hurdle IRR. The Hurdle IRR means 1.25% per month.
(H) Measurement Date; Measurement Period. The Measurement
Date means the earlier of (i) the closing date of a Sale of Sherman and
(ii) December 31, 2013. The Measurement Period means a period
beginning on and including the CCAUPP Effective Date and ending on and
including the Measurement Date.
(I) Sale of Sherman. A Sale of Sherman shall occur if:
(i) assets (other than interests in Sherman Recipients)
representing at least 80% of the aggregate gross assets of Sherman
and all Sherman Recipients are transferred for value to one or more
persons that are not Sherman Recipients, or
(ii) interests in Sherman (and/or in any Purchaser Recipients)
representing at least 80% of the aggregate capital account balances
in Sherman and any Purchaser Recipients are transferred (other than
in exchange for interests in Sherman Recipients) for value to one or
more persons that are not Purchaser Recipients, or
(iii) interests in Sherman representing more than 50% of the
interests in Sherman owned by Purchaser and its Affiliates are
transferred for value and Sellers exercise their tag along rights
under Section 9.3 of the New Sherman Operating Agreement with respect
to such transfer, or
(iv) interests in Sherman (or in any higher-tier entity)
representing, directly or indirectly, more than 60% of the interests
in Sherman that are allocable to either (i) the CEO and the
5
members
of his Immediate Family (the CEO Group) or (ii) the DPV and
the members of his Immediate Family (the DPV Group) are
transferred for value other than on account of death or disability of
either the CEO or the DPV (it being understood for the avoidance of
doubt that the death or disability of either the CEO or the DPV and
the transfer for value of such allocable interest in Sherman by the
other Group, regardless of the reason for such transfer, shall be a
Sale of Sherman) and only if the CEO or the DPV, as the case may be,
does not have a direct or indirect interest in the transferee
(excluding any interest that the CEO and/or the DPV would have,
directly or indirectly, as a creditor of the transferee with respect
to the purchase price of the interests transferred); or
(v) the CEO dies or becomes disabled and the DPV dies or becomes
disabled.
Notwithstanding the above, a Sale of Sherman shall not be deemed to occur when
any transfer described above is made if such transfer is made (i) solely in
connection with a change in the law under which Sherman is
organized or (ii) to secure the obligations of the Purchaser under the
Original Credit Facility, or any Permitted Replacement Facility, or pursuant
to the exercise of remedies by the creditor under the Original Credit Facility
or a Permitted Replacement Facility.
Affiliate means, with respect to any person, any person directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with such
person; provided, however, that, except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, no individual shall be deemed to be an Affiliate of any other
person solely by reason of his or her being an officer or director of such
person and no person shall be deemed to be an Affiliate of any other person
solely by reason of its being a member of the same limited liability company
as, or a limited partner of, such person. A person shall be deemed to be
controlled by any other person if such other person possesses, directly or
indirectly, the power to (i) vote ten percent (10%) or more of the securities
(on a fully diluted basis) having ordinary voting power for the election of,
managers, managing partners or the board of directors (or persons having
similar
6
functions) or (ii) direct or cause the direction of the management and
policies of such person whether by contract or otherwise.
CEO means the individual who at the date hereof is the Chief
Executive Officer of Sherman.
DPV means the individual who at the date hereof is the Director of
Portfolio Valuation of Sherman.
Immediate Family means (i) the spouse, lineal descendants and
children by adoption of a specified individual and (ii) each trust whose
primary beneficiaries include the foregoing persons.
Purchaser Recipient means an individual or entity that acquires a
MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Unit or a Specified Interest from Purchaser (or
from another Purchaser Recipient) (i) pursuant to a distribution from
Purchaser or from a Purchaser Recipient, (ii) in a transaction where the
transferee is the CEO, DPV, or a member of their respective Immediate
Families, or (iii) in a transaction where the transferee is an entity and,
immediately after the completion of all transactions related
to that transfer, more than 50% (by voting power and fair market value) of the
equity interests in the transferee are owned (directly or indirectly) by (A)
the persons that, immediately prior to such transfer, owned (directly or
indirectly) equity interests in the transferor, or (B) any combination of the
CEO, DPV, and the members of their respective Immediate Families.
Sherman Recipient means an entity that acquires a portion or all of
the assets of Sherman (or of another Sherman Recipient) in a transaction where
(i) a portion or all of the consideration for the transfer consists of the
issuance of one or more equity interests in the transferee, and (ii)
immediately after the completion of all transactions related to that transfer,
more than 50% (by voting power and fair market value) of the equity interests
in the transferee are owned (directly or indirectly) by the persons that,
immediately prior to such transfer, owned (directly or indirectly) equity
interests in the transferor.
Specified Interests are any interests in a Sherman Recipient that
are distributed in respect of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units.
7
(J) Sales by Purchaser or by Purchaser Recipients of MGIC/Radian
Purchased Class A Units or Specified Interests (not including transfers of
MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units or Specified Interests to Purchaser
Recipients) that are not part of a Sale of Sherman (as defined above) are
hereinafter referred to as Other Sales.
(ii) Determination of the Actual IRR.
(A) Net Cash Flows. The Net Cash Flows for any
calendar month or portion thereof falling within the Measurement Period are
the Cash Inflows minus the Cash Outflows for such month (and may be positive
or negative depending on whether the Cash Inflows are greater or less than the
Cash Outflows).
(B) Cash Outflows. The Cash Outflows during the Measurement
Period shall consist of the following:
(i) For the first calendar month or any portion thereof that
falls within the Measurement Period, an amount equal
to the MGIC/Radian Class A Units Cash Purchase Price, which
shall be taken into account as a Cash Outflow as of the first day of
the month in which the Closing Date occurs.
(ii) For each calendar month or any portion thereof that falls
within the Measurement Period, an amount equal to each capital
contribution, if any, made in respect of the MGIC/Radian Purchased
Class A Units pursuant to the terms of the New Sherman Operating
Agreement and in respect of any Specified Interests, during that
month or portion thereof.
(iii) Any income taxes that are deemed paid under Section
2.2.(a)(ii)(D), which payments shall be taken into account as Cash
Outflows on the respective dates that such payments are considered,
pursuant to Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(D)(i), to have been made.
8
(C) Cash Inflows. The Cash Inflows during the Measurement
Period shall consist of the following:
(i) Distributions. For any calendar month or any portion
thereof that falls within the Measurement Period, all cash and
non-cash property (other than Specified Interests) that are
distributed on the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units (or on
Specified Interests) to Purchaser and to any Purchaser Recipients
during such month or portion thereof. All non-cash property that is
distributed shall be valued at its fair value on the date of
distribution.
(ii) Proceeds from Other Sales. For any calendar month
or any portion thereof that falls within the Measurement Period, the
consideration paid in any Other Sale, which shall be taken into
account as a Cash Inflow in the calendar month or portion thereof
during which the closing of such Other Sale occurs.
(iii) Terminal Value. For the calendar month or any
portion thereof that includes the Measurement Date, the
Terminal Value, which shall be deemed a Cash Inflow as of the
first day of the month in which the Measurement Date occurs. Subject
to Section 2.2.(b), the Terminal Value shall be the value
of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and any Specified
Interests (whether held by Purchaser or by a Purchaser Recipient) at
the Measurement Date, determined as follows:
(1) If the Measurement Date coincides with the
closing date for a Sale of Sherman, the value of
MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and any Specified
Interests shall be determined by the consideration
paid in the Sale of Sherman (including all cash
consideration and the value of all non-cash
consideration and contingent consideration, if any)
and, if applicable, by the value of the remaining
assets of Sherman and/or the value of arrangements
made with direct or indirect
9
holders of interests in
Sherman, as provided in Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(F)(iv).
If a Sale of Sherman involves interests in Sherman
and less than all of the interests in Sherman are
transferred in such sale, the Cash Inflow shall be
determined as if all the interests in Sherman were
transferred in such sale, with the consideration in
such sale being proportionally increased. If a Sale
of Sherman involves assets of Sherman, then the
Terminal Value shall be determined based on (x) the
consideration paid in such sale, plus (y) the value
of Shermans remaining assets (net of liabilities).
If the remaining assets include one or more
businesses, the value of such remaining assets shall
be determined by agreement of the parties or, in the
absence of such agreement, an independent valuation
pursuant to Section 2.2.(b)(ii) below (which
valuation shall be based upon assumptions
equivalent to those described in Section
2.2.(a)(ii)(C)(iii)(2) below).
(2) If the Measurement Date does not coincide
with the closing date of a Sale of Sherman, the value
of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and any
Specified Interests as of the Measurement Date shall
be the value determined by agreement of the parties
pursuant to Section 2.2.(b)(i) or, in the absence of
such agreement, an independent valuation pursuant to
Section 2.2.(b)(ii) below, provided,
however, that the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class
A Units and any Specified Interests will be valued as
if they could trade in a liquid trading market,
assuming the interests in Sherman and any Specified
Interests were freely transferable, such a market
existed, such a market fairly reflected the long-term
economic value of the interests in
10
Sherman or the
applicable Sherman Recipient (as the case may be) and
there was no discount for blockage. For the avoidance
of doubt, it is understood that the value at which
such interests would trade in a liquid trading market
would not include any control premium. To determine
the long-term economic value of the MGIC/Radian
Purchased Class A Units and to avoid such value being
unduly influenced by short-term volatility, valuation
metrics shall be based on those metrics reflected in
trading markets over a longer-term horizon.
(iv) Any amount treated as a Cash Inflow pursuant to the last
sentence of Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(D)(iii).
(D) Income Taxes. Income taxes in relation to Cash Inflows and
Cash Outflows shall be computed as follows:
(i) Income tax payments shall be reflected as Cash Outflows
pursuant to Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(B). Such payments shall be computed
taking into account items of income, gain, deduction, loss and any
other items (including credits) that are attributable to the
Measurement Period and that are taken into account in determining
taxable income or loss or income taxes, in each case allocable to the
MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and any Specified Interests
(collectively, Items), and assuming that all taxable income
is subject to tax at the Highest Marginal Rate. The taxable year
shall be treated as the calendar year, and 25% of the income taxes
for such year shall be considered paid on each of the four dates on
which installment payments of such taxes are required to be made by
individuals under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended to
the date of this Agreement (the Code). Notwithstanding the
immediately preceding sentence, (x) after the installment payment due
dates are determined under the Code, the actual due dates for income
taxes will be determined in accordance with Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(E),
(y) any income taxes that
11
otherwise would be deemed for purposes of
this Section 2.2.(a)(ii) to be paid prior to the Closing Date shall
be deemed to be paid on January 15, 2008 and (z) any income taxes
that otherwise would be deemed for purposes of this Section
2.2.(a)(ii) to be paid after the Measurement Date shall be deemed to
be paid on the first day of the calendar month that includes the
Measurement Date. Interest on underpayments of income tax and any
related penalties shall be disregarded for purposes of this
Agreement.
(ii) Highest Marginal Rate in respect of any Item, as
of any date of determination, means the highest combined marginal
rate of federal, state and local income tax applicable (with respect
to the particular Item) to the two individuals having the largest
direct or
indirect ownership of the equity interests in Sherman on such
date, giving effect to deductions allowed for state or local income
taxes in computing federal income taxes, for the period in which such
Item is taken into account by such individuals.
(iii) If, for any taxable year, taxable income of Purchaser or a
Purchaser Recipient attributable to the Items is negative and would
be included in the net operating loss deduction for an individual
that may be carried backward or forward under Section 172 of the
Code, such negative amount of taxable income shall first be carried
back and treated as an offset to taxable income of Purchaser or
Purchaser Recipient (as the case may be) with respect to Items in
those years to which a net operating loss carryback would have been
allowed under Section 172 of the Code, and shall then be carried
forward and treated as an offset to taxable income of Purchaser or
Purchaser Recipient (as the case may be) with respect to Items in
future years (up to the maximum number of years in the carryover
period) until fully absorbed. Notwithstanding the immediately
preceding sentence, (x) any negative amount of taxable income with
respect to the Items for the 2007 year or the 2008 year shall not be
carried back, (y) any negative amount of taxable income with respect
to the Items for
12
2009 or a subsequent year shall not be carried back
to a year preceding 2009, and (z) any negative amount of taxable
income with respect to the Items that has not been absorbed (on or
before the Measurement Date) to offset taxable income with respect to
Items shall be taken into account by multiplying such unabsorbed
amount by the Highest Marginal Rate, and by treating the product as a
Cash Inflow on the Measurement Date.
(iv) Because Sherman has previously made an election under
Section 754 of the Code, Items shall be computed giving effect to the
basis adjustments under Sections 743(b) and 734(b) of the Code in
respect of Purchaser.
(v) The Items shall include items attributable to
any disposition of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and
any Specified Interests or assets of Sherman if such disposition is
treated as a Cash Inflow. The aggregate basis of the MGIC/Radian
Purchased Class A Units and any Specified Interests for computing
gain on an actual or deemed sale of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A
Units or any Specified Interests shall equal the MGIC/Radian Class A
Units Cash Purchase Price (as adjusted under Section 705 of the Code
for Items and for contributions and distributions in respect of the
Purchased Class A Units and Specified Interests), regardless of the
application of any blended basis rule that is used for federal
income tax purposes to allocate a partners basis in its entire
interest in the partnership to one or more portions of such entire
interest. If the Measurement Date occurs without a Sale of Sherman
and the value of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and any
Specified Interests is determined under Section
2.2.(a)(ii)(C)(iii)(2), or if a Sale of Sherman involves (x)
interests in Sherman and less than all of the interests in Sherman
are transferred in such sale, or (y) assets of Sherman and less than
all of the assets of Sherman are transferred, then, in the case of
Items attributable to the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units or
Specified Interests, such Items shall include Items from a deemed
sale of the MGIC/Radian Purchased
13
Class A Units or Specified
Interests so valued, or from a deemed sale of such assets, at the
amount taken into account in computing Cash Inflows, except that the
taxes from Items from such a deemed sale taken into account as a Cash
Outflow under this Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(D) shall be deemed to be 90
percent of the amount otherwise determined under this Section
2.2.(a)(ii)(D).
(vi) If the Measurement Date is any date other than December 31,
Items shall be included only up to (and including) the Measurement
Date, and shall be computed for the short taxable year based on a
closing of the books on the Measurement Date. Similarly, if the
CCAUPP Effective Date is any date other than January 1, Items shall
be computed for the
short taxable year based on a closing of the books on the day
preceding the CCAUPP Effective Date.
(vii) The parties agree for all federal income tax purposes to
treat the payment of the Contingent Class A Purchase Price as
consisting of interest in an amount equal to the excess of the
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price over the
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price Before Interest.
(E) Dates of Cash Flows. Unless otherwise expressly provided
herein, a cash flow (whether inflow or outflow) occurring on or after the
first day of the month and before the sixteenth day of the month shall be
deemed to have occurred on the first day of the month, and a cash flow
occurring on or after the sixteenth day of the month and on or before the last
day of the month shall be deemed to have occurred on the first day of the next
month; provided, however, that any cash flows that otherwise would be deemed
to have occurred on the first day of the calendar month that immediately
follows the calendar month that includes the Measurement Date shall be deemed
to occur on the first day of the calendar month that includes the Measurement
Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Cash Inflows and Cash Outflows deemed to
occur on the same day shall be netted.
14
(F) Certain Interpretive Rules. For purposes of this Agreement,
any calculation of present value or internal rate of return shall be based on
a year consisting of twelve months of thirty days each and any discount rate
or internal rate of return shall be expressed on a monthly compounding basis.
In addition to the foregoing, the following (some of which may also be set
forth above) shall apply in determining the Actual IRR.
(i) A transfer of interests in Sherman shall be deemed to have
occurred even if the transferee is Sherman.
(ii) A Sale of Sherman may occur in one transaction or in a
series of related transactions.
(iii) Interests in Sherman that are allocable to the
CEO or the DPV or members of their respective Immediate Family
include interests held by entities in which such individuals have an
interest.
(iv) If, in connection with a Sale of Sherman or an Other Sale,
any arrangements are made that involve the giving of value to the
transferor or to indirect holders of interests in Sherman, the
portion of such value, if any, properly allocable, using reasonable
economic analysis, to the transfer of interests in, or assets of,
Sherman shall be reallocated to such interests or assets.
(v) If an Other Sale occurs during the Measurement Period, the
portion of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units sold in such Other
Sale will no longer be taken into account in determining the Net Cash
Flows. For the avoidance of doubt, any transfer of a portion of the
MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units to a Purchaser Recipient shall
not terminate the need to take such portion while held by such
Purchaser Recipient into account in determining the Net Cash Flows.
(G) Example. Schedule 2.2.(a)(ii)(G) sets forth an
example of the calculation of the Actual IRR and the Contingent MGIC/Radian
Class A Units Purchase Price.
15
2.2.(b) Calculation of Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price.
(i) Within 45 days after the Measurement Date, Purchaser shall prepare an
estimate of the Items for the taxable year in which the Measurement Date occurs giving
effect, if applicable, to Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(D)(vi) (such estimate is herein referred
to as the Estimate) and deliver it to the Sellers. Using the Estimate,
within 15 days thereafter, Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other
hand, shall calculate the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price and
shall deliver the calculation to the other(s) with reasonable supporting detail to
enable the other(s) to review the calculation (the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A
Units Purchase Price Calculations). Unless both
calculations result in the same Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase
Price, Purchaser and the Sellers shall discuss any differences in the calculations and
any issues relating thereto (a Computation Dispute) in good faith and each
shall use its best efforts to resolve such Computation Disputes. Except when the
disagreement of the parties relates to (i) the value of the MGIC/Radian Purchased
Class A Units under Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(C)(iii)(2), (ii) the value of any remaining
assets under Section 2.2.(a)(ii)(C)(iii)(1) that constitute a business at the
Measurement Date, (iii) the value of any remaining assets of Sherman that do not
constitute a business at the Measurement Date, (iv) the value of any non-cash
property the distribution of which is taken into account under Section
2.2.(a)(ii)(C)(i) in determining the Cash Inflows, or (v) the value of arrangements
made with direct or indirect holders of interests in Sherman, as provided in Section
2.2.(a)(ii)(F)(iv) (any dispute relating to an item referred to under the foregoing
clauses (i) to (v), a Valuation Dispute), the parties shall have 45 days
after delivery of the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price Calculations
to resolve any Computation Dispute relating to the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A
Units Purchase Price Calculations. Any such Computation Dispute not resolved within
this 45-day period shall be resolved pursuant to Section 12.7.
(ii) If Purchaser and the Sellers cannot resolve a Valuation Dispute within
forty-five (45) days, then they shall jointly select an Independent Appraiser to
conduct appropriate due diligence regarding Sherman and to value the MGIC/Radian
Purchased Class A Units and any Specified Interests as of the Measurement Date,
provided, however, that the Independent Appraiser shall use in its
valuation methodology assumptions equivalent to those described in Sections
16
2.2.(a)(ii)(C)(iii)(1), 2.2.(a)(ii)(C)(iii)(2) and 2.2.(a)(ii)(F)(iv) and only those
base case projections of future performance that it determines are reasonable in the
circumstances.
(A) Independent Appraiser means a third party appraiser that (x)
has not in the three years prior to its selection performed any material
services for, or otherwise had a material relationship with, Sherman or any
member of Sherman, including Sellers and Purchaser, or any of their respective
Affiliates, (y) is a nationally recognized
investment banking, valuation or accounting firm and (z) meets any other
requirement mutually agreed upon by the parties. In connection with its
agreement to undertake its assignment, the Independent Appraiser shall confirm
to the parties that it meets the requirements set forth herein.
(B) If Purchaser and the Sellers cannot within 15 days after the end of
such 45-day period agree on the selection of an Independent Appraiser,
Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall each
promptly select one firm that qualifies as an Independent Appraiser and the
selection shall be made by the toss of a coin.
(C) The Independent Appraiser may seek the advice of its counsel with
respect to the interpretation of this Agreement. Purchaser shall bear
one-half, and each Seller shall bear one-quarter, of the costs and expenses of
the Independent Appraiser.
(iii) Within 90 days after it has agreed to perform its assignment, the
Independent Appraiser shall provide a draft report to Purchaser and the Sellers
calculating the value of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and any Specified
Interests, which report shall provide reasonable supporting detail regarding the
proposed resolution of any items included in the Valuation Dispute. After considering
any comments made by Purchaser and the Sellers on such draft report that are made
within 15 days after its receipt, the Independent Appraiser shall promptly render a
final report calculating the value of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and any
Specified Interests (the Independent Appraiser Value) and the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price resulting therefrom. Subject to the
adjustment in Section 2.3.(c) and subject to Section 2.2.(b)(iv) and Section
2.2.(b)(v) below, the Independent Appraiser Value and the
17
calculation of the
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price resulting therefrom shall be final
between the parties.
(iv) If, however, Purchaser or either Seller disagrees with the Independent
Appraiser Value, then the parties shall have thirty (30) days to resolve any
differences and any issues relating to the Independent Appraiser Value in good faith.
Following this thirty-day period, if the parties still disagree, then Purchaser or
such Seller, as the case may be, shall send a notice in writing to the other parties
indicating its disagreement and the basis therefor in reasonable detail (the
Second
Appraiser Notice) and the parties shall jointly select a second
independent appraiser, which shall be different from the Independent Appraiser (the
Second Appraiser) to conduct appropriate due diligence regarding Sherman and
to value the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and any Specified Interests and to
address any remaining items included in the Valuation Dispute, provided,
however, that the Second Appraiser shall also use in its valuation methodology
assumptions equivalent to those described in Sections 2.2.(a)(ii)(C)(iii)(1),
2.2.(a)(ii)(C)(iii)(2) and 2.2.(a)(ii)(F)(iv) and only those base case projections
of future performance that it determines are reasonable in the circumstances. The
provisions set forth in Section 2.2.(b)(ii)(A), 2.2.(b)(ii)(B), 2.2.(b)(ii)(C) and
2.2.(b)(iii) shall apply to the Second Appraiser mutatis mutandis. The Terminal
Value to be used for purposes of calculating the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A
Units Purchase Price shall be the arithmetic average of (A) the Independent Appraiser
Value and (B) the value of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and any Specified
Interests determined by the Second Appraiser in its final report (the Second
Appraiser Value and such arithmetic average, the Average Value).
Subject to the adjustment in Section 2.3.(c) and subject to Section 2.2.(b)(v) below,
the Average Value and the calculation of the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units
Purchase Price resulting therefrom shall be final between the parties.
(v) If Purchaser disagrees with the Average Value, then the parties shall have
thirty (30) days to resolve any differences and any issues relating to the Average
Value. Following this thirty-day period, if Purchaser still disagrees with the
Average Value, then Purchaser shall within five (5) Business Days (as defined in
Section 2.3.(b)(iii)) send a notice in writing to the Sellers (the Third-Party
Sale Notice) indicating its disagreement and the basis therefor in reasonable
detail and Purchasers intention to exercise its sale right under Section 2.2.(b)(vi)
below. If
18
Purchaser indicates its disagreement to the Sellers pursuant to a
Third-Party Sale Notice, Sellers and Purchaser hereby agree that the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price shall not be due unless and until the sale of
all of Sherman and any Specified Interests is completed or the Terminal Value is
otherwise determined pursuant to Section 2.2.(b)(vii) or Section 2.2.(b)(ix) below.
(vi) Starting on the date on which the Third-Party Sale Notice is received by the
Sellers, Purchaser may begin to market and solicit offers from potential third-party
buyers (not including any third-party buyer in which the CEO, DPV, and the members of
their Immediate Families own, directly or indirectly, an equity interest other than an
interest of 5% or less in a class of publicly traded securities issued by the
third-party buyer) for the purchase of all of Sherman (together with all Specified
Interests) during the period beginning on and excluding the day of delivery of the
Third-Party Sale Notice and ending on and including the date that is six (6) months
after the delivery of the Third-Party Sale Notice (the Third-Party Sale
Period) and shall hire or cause Sherman to hire a nationally recognized
investment banking firm that is mutually acceptable to the parties to this Agreement
(the Investment Bank) to aid Sherman and Purchaser in the marketing and
solicitation of offers for the purchase of all of Sherman (together with all Specified
Interests). The Investment Bank shall be authorized to provide any such potential
third-party buyer with such information (including confidential information) regarding
Sherman and any Specified Interests as such buyer may reasonably request in connection
with its potential offer; provided that such potential buyer shall
have executed and delivered to Sherman a confidentiality agreement before receiving
any confidential or proprietary information regarding Sherman and its businesses.
(vii) At the end of the Third-Party Sale Period (the
Third-Party Sale End Date) or at such other date mutually
agreed upon by the parties to the extent the offer of a serious potential
third-party buyer is conditioned upon such other date, Sherman shall
decide whether Sherman (together with all Specified Interests) shall be
sold to the person or persons offering pursuant to Section 2.2.(b)(vi) to
purchase all of Sherman and all Specified Interests for the highest
consideration (the Highest Bidder) as determined by the
Investment Bank (the Final Sale Price); it being understood and
agreed that (i) the consideration offered by the potential buyer for each
unit of Sherman must be the same per unit and for each Specified
19
Interest must be the same per Specified Interest, (ii) the creditworthiness of
any potential buyer and the terms and conditions of such offer and proposed subsequent
purchase of Sherman may be used by the Investment Bank to value the consideration
being offered for Sherman in any offer and (iii) if any arrangements are made between
the potential buyer and Purchaser that involve the giving of value to Purchaser or to
indirect holders of interests in Sherman, the portion of such value, if any, properly
allocable, using reasonable economic analysis, to the transfer of interests in, or
assets of, Sherman shall be reallocated to such interests or assets and shall be
reflected in such Final Sale Price. If Sherman approves the sale of all of Sherman
and all Specified Interests to the Highest Bidder, then the Final Sale Price received
in such sale shall be used to determine the Terminal Value for purposes of
calculating the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price. If Sherman does
not approve the sale of all of Sherman and all Specified Interests to the Highest
Bidder, then the Terminal Value for purposes of calculating the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price shall be the average consideration offered
for all of Sherman and all Specified Interests by the potential third-party buyers to
the Investment Bank and/or Sherman during the Third-Party Sale Period (the
Average Consideration), which shall be determined by calculating the
arithmetic average of the consideration offered by each potential third-party buyer in
its final bid. The parties shall within forty-five (45) days after the date of
Shermans decision prepare and deliver the Estimate and the Contingent MGIC/Radian
Class A Units Purchase Price Calculations in accordance with Section 2.2.(b)(i) above
and any Valuation Dispute existing between the parties shall be deemed resolved and
the value of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units and the calculation of the
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price resulting therefrom shall be final
between the parties. The Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price shall
thereafter become due and payment thereof be made pursuant to Section 2.3.(b).
(viii) For purposes of any sale of all of Sherman (together with all Specified
Interests) to be made pursuant to Section 2.2.(b)(vi) and Section 2.2.(b)(vii) above
(a Third-Party Sale), the parties hereto hereby waive any rights they may
have under Sections 9.2 (Rights of First Refusal), 9.3 (Tag Along), and
9.4 (Drag Along) under the New Sherman Operating Agreement, as the same may be
amended from time to time after the Closing Date in accordance with its terms. The
parties hereby agree to cooperate fully with the marketing and solicitation of
20
offers
for the Third-Party Sale and Purchaser shall provide access to the offices of Sherman
and shall use its best efforts to cause Sherman Capital Markets LLC to provide such
access to its employees as any potential buyer or the Investment Bank may reasonably
request in connection with the marketing of Sherman, the solicitation of offers and
the subsequent Third-Party Sale.
(ix) If the procedures set forth in Section 2.2.(b)(vi) and Section 2.2.(b)(vii)
above do not result in the receipt of any offer from a third-party buyer before the
Third-Party Sale End Date, then Purchaser shall have the right, following the
expiration of a twelve-month period from the Third-Party Sale End Date, to begin to
remarket and solicit offers from potential third-party buyers during another six-month
period for the purchase of all of Sherman (together with all Specified Interests) (the
Second Sale Right). Purchaser may exercise its sale right under this
Section 2.2.(b)(ix) by sending, at any time following the expiration of the
twelve-month period referred to in the foregoing sentence, a Third-Party Sale Notice
to the Sellers indicating Purchasers intention to exercise its Second Sale Right.
The provisions set forth in Sections 2.2.(b)(vi), 2.2.(b)(vii) and 2.2.(b)(viii) shall
apply to this second sale process mutatis mutandis. If the procedures set forth in
this Section 2.2.(b)(ix) still do not result in the receipt of any offer from a
third-party buyer before the end of the second Third-Party Sale Period, then Purchaser
shall have such additional sale rights, following the expiration of a twelve-month
period from the end of such second Third-Party Sale Period (or any subsequent
Third-Party Sale Period that may exist in accordance with this Section 2.2.(b)(ix)),
to begin to remarket and solicit offers from potential third-party buyers for the
purchase of all of Sherman (together with all Specified Interests) (such additional
sale rights, the Subsequent Sale Rights) during such other six-month periods
as may be necessary to receive offers from potential third-party buyers for the
purchase of all of Sherman (together will all Specified Interests) and Purchaser may
exercise such Subsequent Sale Rights and a subsequent Third-Party Sale may be decided
upon in accordance with the provisions set forth in Sections 2.2.(b)(vi), 2.2.(b)(vii)
and 2.2.(b)(viii), which will apply to the subsequent sale processes
mutatis mutandis until a Terminal Value may be determined for purposes of
calculating the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price.
21
2.3 Payment of Purchase Price.
2.3.(a) Payments on the Closing Date. At the Closing, Purchaser shall deliver
(a) to MGIC, one-half of the Preferred Units Purchase Price, (b) to Radian, one-half of the
Preferred Units Purchase Price, (c) to each of the Sellers, one-half of the Class A Units
Cash Purchase Price, and (d) to Radian, the Additional Radian Class A Units Purchase Price.
2.3.(b) Payment of the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price.
After the Calculation Date (as defined below in this Section 2.3.(b)):
(i) If the Actual IRR is equal to or less than the Hurdle IRR, Purchaser shall be
released from any and all obligations in connection with the payment of the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price.
(ii) If the Actual IRR is greater than the Hurdle IRR, Purchaser shall pay to
each of the Sellers one-half of the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase
Price, as provided in Section 2.3.(b)(iii) below.
(iii) Purchaser shall pay to each of the Sellers one-half of the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price on the earlier of the date that is (1) the
first Business Day following the later of (A) the 90th day after the
Calculation Date and (B) the 90th day after the Original Credit Facility or
any Permitted Replacement Facility (if applicable) has been repaid in full, and (2)
the first Business Day following the 90th day after the date on which the
CCAUPP Loan has been made pursuant to Section 2.3.(b)(v) (such date, the
Contingent Payment Due Date). For purposes hereof, (a) Original Credit
Facility is the credit facility evidenced by the credit agreement dated as of the
date hereof, among Purchaser, as borrower, Meeting Street Partners II Inc., as
guarantor, the lenders named therein, as the initial lenders, and Citicorp USA, Inc.,
as administrative agent and collateral agent, as amended, modified or supplemented
from time to time consistent with Section 5.1; (b) Permitted Replacement
Facility means any credit facility (other than the CCAUPP Loan) that refinances
the debt incurred under the Original Credit Facility
with an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the principal amount outstanding
under the Original Credit Facility as of the date of such refinancing; (c)
Calculation Date means the day on which the calculation of the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price has become final pursuant to Section 2.2(b)
above; and (d) Business Day means any day other than (a) Saturday or
22
Sunday
or (b) a day on which commercial banks in New York, New York, are authorized or
required by applicable Law or executive order to close.
(iv) Following the Calculation Date, Purchaser may arrange financing to enable
Purchaser to pay the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price and related
costs (the Contingent Payment Financing). Purchaser shall be allowed to
incorporate the refinancing of the Original Credit Facility or, if applicable, any
Permitted Replacement Facility into the amount of the Contingent Payment Financing,
provided, however, that neither the Permitted Replacement Facility nor
the Contingent Payment Financing shall be an obligation of Sherman or any Affiliate of
Sherman that is controlled by Sherman, and none of the assets of Sherman or any such
Affiliate shall provide security for such financing.
(v) If, on the Calculation Date, the Original Credit Facility or any Permitted
Replacement Facility (if applicable) has not been repaid in full (the amount
outstanding under the Original Credit Facility or the Permitted Replacement Facility
(if applicable) on such date is herein referred to as the Purchase Price
Obligations ), MGIC and Radian shall each have an option to lend Purchaser an
amount equal to one-half of the Purchase Price Obligations, such option being
exercisable beginning on the Business Day following the Calculation Date and expiring
on such date when Purchaser enters into a commitment letter (the Commitment
Letter) with a person engaged in the business of regularly providing commercial
financing (the Lender) for the repayment of the Purchase Price Obligations;
it being understood, however, that if the transactions to be entered into by
Purchaser and Lender pursuant to the credit facility contemplated by the Commitment
Letter are not consummated within ninety (90) days following the date of the
Commitment Letter, each of the Sellers option to lend shall revive except to the
extent that Purchaser has entered into another commitment letter with the same or
another
Lender and a period of 90 days or less has elapsed without a consummation of the
transactions contemplated by such commitment letter. Each Seller shall exercise its
rights under this Section 2.3.(b)(v) by giving prompt written notice of such exercise
before its option expires to Purchaser and the other Seller. The failure by any of
the Sellers to deliver a notice pursuant to this Section 2.3.(b)(v) shall be deemed an
election by such Seller not to lend any monies to Purchaser. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if one Seller delivers notice to the other parties that it exercises its
option under this Section 2.3.(b)(v), the other Seller shall
23
have two (2) Business
Days to deliver to the other parties a notice stating irrevocably whether such other
Seller intends to exercise its option to lend under this Section 2.3.(b)(v). If such
notice indicates that such other Seller does not wish to exercise its option or if
such other Seller does not deliver any notice within the two-Business Day period
provided above, then the Seller who exercised its option shall thereafter have two (2)
Business Days to determine whether to revoke the exercise of its option to lend or to
lend Purchaser the full amount of the Purchase Price Obligations and to notify the
other parties of its determination. If such Seller determines to lend the full amount
of the Purchase Price Obligations, such determination shall be irrevocable. The loan
made by one or both Sellers for the repayment in full of the Purchase Price
Obligations is referred to herein as the CCAUPP Loan. The proceeds of the
CCAUPP Loan shall be used exclusively to repay all amounts outstanding under the
Original Credit Facility or, if applicable, the Permitted Replacement Facility and to
discharge and release Purchaser from any and all Purchase Price Obligations
thereunder. On the date on which the CCAUPP Loan is made, Purchaser and the Sellers
(or the applicable Seller, as the case may be) shall enter into a credit facility with
respect to the CCAUPP Loan containing terms substantially similar to the terms of the
Original Credit Facility or, if applicable, the Permitted Replacement Facility,
including in particular an interest rate calculation basis and methodology equivalent
to that then applicable under the Original Credit Facility (or, if applicable, any
Permitted Replacement Facility) and a security agreement containing terms
substantially similar to the terms of the security agreement ancillary to the Original
Credit Facility or any Permitted Replacement Facility (as applicable). The parties
hereby acknowledge and agree that nothing contained in this Section 2.3.(b)(v) shall
prevent Purchaser from arranging the Contingent Payment Financing before the
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price becomes due pursuant to Section
2.3.(b)(iii) above.
(vi) Purchaser shall also pay on the date on which the payment of the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price is made interest accrued on the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price at the Interest Rate from and including the
ninety-first (91st) day following the Measurement Date to and including the
day before the day on which payment of the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units
Purchase Price is made. Interest Rate means an annual interest rate equal
to the three-month Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Original Credit Facility, in the
Permitted Replacement Facility or, if neither are still
24
in effect, in the last
existing credit facility as if it were still in effect) as of such 91st day
or, in the case of Section 2.3.(c), as of the date the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A
Units Purchase Price was previously finally determined under Section 2.2.(b), plus 300
basis points.
2.3.(c) Adjustment. Promptly after Sherman files its Form 1065 with the Internal
Revenue Service for the year in which the Measurement Date occurs, Purchaser shall provide a
copy of such return to the Sellers and shall also deliver to the Sellers, promptly after they
are filed with state and local taxing authorities, the corresponding state and local income
returns for such year. Within 15 days after the later of (i) the Calculation Date and (ii)
the date on which Purchaser provides a copy of such return to Sellers, Purchaser and the
Sellers shall each recalculate the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price using
the information in such returns and deliver the calculation to the other.
(i) If any disagreement regarding the computation of such Contingent MGIC/Radian
Class A Units Purchase Price occurs that Purchaser and any of the Sellers cannot
resolve within 15 days after each delivers the recalculation contemplated above to the
other, such disagreement shall be resolved by the parties as if such disagreement were
a Computation Dispute under Section 2.2.(b)(i).
(ii) Within 15 days after such recalculation becomes final, if
(A) the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price as so
recomputed exceeds the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price as
previously finally determined under Section 2.2.(b), Purchaser shall pay such
excess to Sellers based on their proportionate shares thereof, and
(B) if the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price as
previously finally determined under Section 2.2.(b) exceeds the Contingent
MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price as so recomputed, the Sellers shall
each pay such excess to Purchaser based on their proportionate shares thereof,
along with, if applicable, in either case, interest on the payment at the Interest
Rate from and including the day on which the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units
25
Purchase Price as previously finally determined under Section 2.2.(b) was paid to and
including the day before the day on which payment of such excess is made.
2.3.(d) Method of Payment. All payments to be made pursuant to this Section 2.3
shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the
recipient in writing.
3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS
As a material inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby, each Seller hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser, solely
with respect to itself and not with respect to the other Seller, as follows:
3.1 Organization. Such Seller is a corporation validly existing and in good standing
(or its equivalent) under the laws of the State of its incorporation.
3.2 Equity Interests and Related Matters. There are no statutory or contractual
preemptive rights or rights of first refusal or Encumbrances or other similar restrictions with
respect to the purchase and sale of such Sellers interests in Sherman hereunder (other than those

terminated or otherwise cancelled as of the Closing). Except for the Existing Sherman Operating
Agreement, there are no agreements or understandings between such Seller and any other persons with
respect to the voting or transfer of Shermans interests or with respect to any other aspect of
Shermans governance.
3.3 Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all
of the other agreements executed in connection with this Agreement, including the New Sherman
Operating Agreement (the Ancillary Agreements) to which such Seller is a party and the
sale of the Preferred Units and Class A Units hereunder by such Seller have been duly authorized by
such Seller. This Agreement and all other Ancillary
Agreements to which such Seller is a party, when executed and delivered by such Seller in
accordance with the terms thereof, shall each constitute a valid and binding obligation of such
Seller, enforceable against such Seller in accordance with its terms.
3.4 Noncontravention.
3.4.(a) The execution and delivery by such Seller of this Agreement and all other
Ancillary Agreements to which such Seller is a party, the sale of the Preferred Units and
Class A Units hereunder and the fulfillment of and compliance with the respective
26
terms
hereof and thereof by such Seller, do not (i) conflict with or result in a material breach of
the terms, conditions or provisions of, (ii) constitute a material default under (whether
with or without the passage of time, the giving of notice or both), (iii) result in the
creation of any Encumbrance upon such Sellers Preferred Units and Class A Units pursuant to,
(iv) give any third party the right to modify, terminate or accelerate any material
obligation under or (v) subject to Section 3.4.(b), require that such Seller obtain or make

promulgated, issued, enforced or entered by any governmental entity (a Law) to which such
Seller is subject, the organizational documents of such Seller or any material agreement,
instrument, order, judgment or decree to which such Seller is subject (other than the
Existing Sherman Operating Agreement or the New Sherman Operating Agreement), except as has
not had and would not have a material adverse effect on such Sellers ability to consummate
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
3.4.(b) Insofar as the representation and warranty in Section 3.4(a) above covers the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act, of 1976, as amended, such representation and
warranty is given in reliance on Purchasers representation and warranty in Section 4.3.(b).
3.5 No Brokers or Finders. Other than Goldman Sachs & Co. (which has been retained on

6. SECURITY INTEREST
6.1 Grant of Contingent Payment Security Interest to the Sellers. On the later of (i)
the first Business Day following the 90th day after the Measurement Date and (ii) the
first Business Day following the date on which all amounts due and payable under the Original
Credit
30
Facility or any Permitted Replacement Facility (if applicable) have been fully paid, then as
security for the timely performance of Purchasers obligation to pay each Seller its proportionate
share of the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price, Purchaser hereby grants,
effective on such Business Day (the Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date):
(a) to MGIC, a security interest in all of Purchasers right, title and interest,
whether now or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the following (the MGIC
Contingent Payment Collateral):
(i) 50% of the Designated Portion (as defined below in this Section 6.1);
(ii) all rights and privileges relating to the foregoing (including, without
limitation, voting rights); and
(iii) all proceeds (as such term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code in the
State of New York (the UCC)) of any and all of the foregoing.
(b) to Radian, a security interest in all of Purchasers right, title and interest,
whether now or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the following (the Radian
Contingent Payment Collateral and, together with the MGIC Contingent Payment
Collateral, the Contingent Payment Collateral):
(i) 50% of the Designated Portion (as defined below in this Section 6.1);
(ii) all rights and privileges relating to the foregoing (including, without
limitation, voting rights); and
(iii) all proceeds (as such term is defined in the UCC) of any and all of the
foregoing.
The Designated Portion shall mean a number of units in Sherman held as of the
Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date by Purchaser or Purchasers Affiliates
(other than Sherman), as the case may be, which shall be determined as follows:
(x) If, as of the Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date, the Purchaser
Sherman Equity Interest Value is greater than the Designated Portion Value, then the
Designated Portion shall be such number of units in Sherman held by Purchaser
31
(rounded up to
the nearest whole unit) as equals (1) the number of units in Sherman held by Purchaser,
multiplied by (2) the lesser of the Designated Portion Value or $95,000,000, and divided by
(3) the Purchaser Sherman Equity Interest Value. For purposes hereof:
(i) the Designated Portion Value means 1.25 x (M+N)/2, where:
M equals the amount that is calculated by Purchaser (as part of its
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price Calculation under Section
2.2.(b)(i)) as being the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price; and
N equals the amount that is calculated by the Sellers (as part of their
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price Calculation) as being the
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price.
(ii) the Purchaser Sherman Equity Interest Value means (U+V)/2, where:
U equals the aggregate value that is ascribed (as of the Measurement
Date) to all the equity interests in Sherman that are owned by Purchaser on the
Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date, based on the amount that is
calculated by Purchaser (as part of its Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units
Purchase Price Calculation) as being the value of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A
Units as of the Measurement Date; and
V equals the aggregate value that is ascribed (as of the Measurement
Date) to all the equity interests in Sherman that are owned by Purchaser on the
Contingent
Payment Security Interest Effective Date, based on the amount that is calculated by
the Sellers (as part of their Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price
Calculation) as being the value of the MGIC/Radian Purchased Class A Units as of
the Measurement Date.
(y) If, as of the Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date, the Purchaser
Sherman Equity Interest Value is equal to or less than the Designated Portion Value, then
the Designated Portion shall consist of all units in Sherman then held by Purchaser and if,
prior to the Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date, Purchaser has transferred
units in Sherman to one or more of its Affiliates (other than Sherman), then Purchaser shall
cause one or more of such Affiliates to grant, effective on the Contingent Payment Security
Interest Effective Date, to each of MGIC and Radian a
32
security interest in all right, title,
and interest, in, to, and under such number of units (including all rights and privileges
relating thereto and all proceeds (as such term is defined in the UCC) of any and all such
units, rights and privileges) as would have been required to be included in the Designated
Portion under clause (x) above if such units had instead been owned by Purchaser (together
with the units actually owned by Purchaser) on the Contingent Payment Security Interest
Effective Date. Provisions comparable to those contained in Sections 6.2-6.5 below shall
apply with respect to the collateral owned by Purchasers Affiliates.
6.2 Rights and Obligations Regarding Contingent Payment Collateral.
6.2.(a) Purchaser agrees promptly to deliver or cause to be delivered to MGIC any
certificate or certificates and any other instruments and documents evidencing the MGIC
Contingent Payment Collateral that come into existence from time to time after the Contingent
Payment Security Interest Effective Date.
6.2.(b) Purchaser agrees promptly to deliver or cause to be delivered to Radian any
certificate or certificates and any other instruments and documents evidencing the Radian
Contingent Payment Collateral that come into existence from time to time after the Contingent
Payment Security Interest Effective Date.
6.2.(c) Purchaser will, at its expense, execute, endorse, acknowledge and deliver to
MGIC and Radian, all such financing and continuation statements, certificates, legal
opinions, instruments and other documents and take all such action, and do or cause to be
done all such other things, as MGIC or Radian, from time to time after the
Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date, deems necessary or advisable, or
may reasonably request, in order to give full effect to Section 6.1and to protect and enforce
the rights intended to be granted to MGIC and Radian thereunder.
6.2.(d) Following the Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date, unless and
until a Contingent Payment Collateral Event of Default (as defined in Section 6.4.(c) below)
shall have occurred and be continuing:
(i) Purchaser shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting rights and/or
other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of the Contingent Payment
Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this
Agreement;
33
(ii) Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all distributions
made with respect to the MGIC Contingent Payment Collateral; provided,
however, that until actually paid, all rights to such distributions shall
remain subject to the security interest granted to MGIC under this Agreement;
(iii) Purchaser shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all distributions
made with respect to the Radian Contingent Payment Collateral; provided,
however, that until actually paid, all rights to such distributions shall
remain subject to the security interest granted to Radian under this Agreement; and
(iv) MGIC and Radian shall execute and deliver to Purchaser, or cause to be
executed and delivered to Purchaser, all such proxies, powers of attorney and other
instruments as Purchaser may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling Purchaser
to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise
pursuant to Section 6.2.(d)(i) and to receive the distributions it is entitled to
receive pursuant to Section 6.2.(d)(ii) and 6.2.(d)(iii), as soon as reasonably
practicable after receipt of a written request from Purchaser together with a
certificate by Purchasers principal financial officer or manager stating that no
Contingent Payment Collateral Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. For
the avoidance of doubt, in no event will MGIC or Radian be entitled to have
Purchasers interests in Sherman registered in their name unless and until a
Contingent Payment Collateral Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
6.3 Representation, Warranty and Covenant. Purchaser hereby represents, warrants and
covenants, as to itself and the Contingent Payment Collateral pledged by it hereunder, to MGIC and
Radian that as of the Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date, subject to the
repayment in full of the Original Credit Facility or, if applicable, any Permitted Replacement
Facility, it will have the power and right to grant a security interest in the Contingent Payment
Collateral. As part of any transfer of units in Sherman to any Affiliate of Purchaser as referred
to in clause (y) of the definition of Designated Portion in Section 6.1 above, Purchaser shall
obtain from such Affiliate an agreement (of which MGIC and Radian shall be third party
beneficiaries) to the effect that such Affiliate shall grant the security interest contemplated in
such clause.
34

Collateral pursuant to Section 6.2.(d)(i), and the obligations of MGIC under

to MGIC, upon demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

this Section 6.4.(b)(iii) shall be retained by MGIC as additional MGIC Contingent
Payment Collateral hereunder and applied in accordance with the provisions hereof in
satisfaction of MGICs unpaid proportionate share of the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class
A Units Purchase Price.
(iv) All rights of Purchaser to distributions pursuant to Section 6.2.(d)(iii)
shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in Radian, which shall

this Section 6.4.(b)(iv) shall be held in trust for the benefit of Radian, shall be
segregated from other property or funds of Purchaser and shall be forthwith delivered
to Radian, upon demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary
endorsement). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by Radian

the remedies set forth in Sections 6.4.(a) and 6.4.(b) if Purchaser fails to pay the
Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A Units Purchase Price on the Contingent Payment Due Date (such
failure, the Contingent Payment Collateral Event of Default).
6.5 Termination of Security Interest in Contingent Payment Collateral. Subject to
Section 6.6 hereof, this Agreement shall create, effective on the Contingent Payment Security
Interest Effective Date, a continuing security interest in the MGIC Contingent Payment Collateral
and the Radian Contingent Payment Collateral and such security interest shall remain in full force
until each of the Sellers is paid its proportionate share of the Contingent MGIC/Radian Class A

Facility (as applicable) are repaid prior to the Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective
Date, Purchaser shall have the right to grant a first priority security interest (the
Priority Security Interest) in Purchasers assets to a third-party lender (the
Senior Lender). If, on the Contingent Payment Security Interest Effective Date, the
assets comprising the Contingent Payment Collateral are subject to such Priority Security
Interest, each of MGIC and Radian agree that the security interest created under Section 6.1 shall
be subordinate in lien priority to the Priority Security Interest.

12.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents referred to herein contain
the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to
such subject matter in any way.
12.5 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Subject to Section 12.2, this Agreement is for the
sole benefit of the parties and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to
give any person or entity, other than the parties, any legal or equitable rights hereunder.
12.6 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THAT
WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.
12.7 Resolution of Disputes.
12.7.(a) Generally. Unless prohibited by applicable Law or as otherwise
expressly provided in this Agreement (such as in Section 2.2.(b)(ii) hereof), the parties
agree that any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
the performance by the parties of its terms shall be settled by binding arbitration held in
the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, State of New York in accordance with the
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect, except
as specifically otherwise provided in this Section 12.7. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to
the extent the arbitrator(s) does not possess the power to subpoena witnesses necessary to
the resolution of a dispute, controversy or claim brought hereunder which a court of
competent jurisdiction would possess, such dispute, controversy or claim shall not be subject
to the terms of this Section 12.7 and shall instead be subject to resolution in
43
such court. If the parties to either the Existing Sherman Operating Agreement or the New
Sherman Operating Agreement are engaged in or submit a matter to arbitration with respect to
or related to the same subject matter as a matter which is to be submitted to arbitration
pursuant to this Agreement, such arbitrations shall be jointly conducted.
12.7.(b) Arbitrators. If the matter in controversy (exclusive of attorney fees
and expenses) shall appear, as at the time of the demand for arbitration, to exceed $500,000,
then the panel to be appointed shall consist of three neutral arbitrators; otherwise, one
neutral arbitrator. No arbitrator shall be a current or former officer, manager, director or
employee of Purchaser, MGIC or Radian (or any entity with which any of them has combined).
12.7.(c) Procedures; No Appeal. The arbitrator(s) shall allow such discovery as
the arbitrator(s) determines appropriate under the circumstances and shall resolve the
dispute as expeditiously as practicable, and if reasonably practicable, within 90 days after
the selection of the arbitrator(s). The arbitrator(s) shall give the parties written notice
of the decision, with the reasons therefor set out, and shall have 30 days thereafter to
reconsider and modify such decision if any party so requests within 10 days after the
decision. Thereafter, the decision of the arbitrator(s) shall be final, binding, and
nonappealable with respect to all persons, including (without limitation) persons who have
failed or refused to participate in the arbitration process, except to the extent such
decision shall be premised upon an erroneous application of or shall be contrary to
applicable Law. In making any decision, the arbitrator(s) is instructed to preserve, as
nearly as possible, to the extent compatible with applicable Law, the original business and
economic intent of the parties embodied in this Agreement.
12.7.(d) Authority. The arbitrator(s) shall have authority to award relief under
legal or equitable principles, including interim or preliminary relief, and to allocate
responsibility for the costs of the arbitration and to award recovery of attorneys fees and
expenses in such manner as is determined to be appropriate by the arbitrator(s).
12.7.(e) Entry of Judgment. Judgment upon the award rendered by the
arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having in personam and subject matter jurisdiction.
Purchaser, MGIC and Radian each hereby submit to the in personam jurisdiction of the federal
and state courts in the Southern District of New York, and in the borough of Manhattan for
the purpose of confirming any such award and entering judgment thereon.
44
12.7.(f) Confidentiality. Subject to Section 12.10.(b), all proceedings under
this Section 12.7, and all evidence given or discovered pursuant hereto, shall be maintained
in confidence by all parties and by the arbitrator(s).
12.7.(g) Continued Performance. The fact that the dispute resolution procedures
specified in this Section 12.7 shall have been or may be invoked shall not excuse any party
from performing its obligations under this Agreement and during the pendency of any such
procedure all parties shall continue to perform their respective obligations in good faith.
12.7.(h) Tolling. All applicable statutes of limitation shall be tolled while
the procedures specified in this Section 12.7 are pending. The parties will take such action,
if any, required to effectuate such tolling.
12.8 Waiver of Jury Trial. WITHOUT LIMITING SECTION 12.7, AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT THAT
ANY PROVISION OF SECTION 12.7 IS HELD BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION NOT TO BE ENFORCEABLE,
EACH OF THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND
FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
12.9 No Strict Construction. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation
and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation
arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption
or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any
of the provisions of this Agreement. No draft of this Agreement shall be considered in construing
the meaning hereof.
12.10 Disclosures and Announcements. 12.10.(a) Except as otherwise required by Law or
the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, as such Law and rules are interpreted by counsel (who may
be inside counsel) for a party, no party shall, or shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue or
cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement with respect to, or
otherwise make any public statement concerning, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
without prior consultation with the other parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld).
45
12.10.(b) Confidentiality. The parties hereto agree to keep the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and all other agreements and documents executed in connection
herewith (other than this Agreement itself and the terms hereof) (the Confidential
Information) strictly confidential, and no party shall, and the parties shall cause Sherman
not to, without the prior written consent of the other parties, disclose the Confidential
Information to any person (other than its Representatives), except to the extent a party is advised
by its counsel (who may be internal counsel) that such disclosure is required by Law (in which
case, the provisions of the following sentence shall apply) and except to the lenders under the
Original Credit Facility or any Permitted Replacement Facility and their counsel. Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a) in the event that a party hereto is advised by its
counsel that disclosure of any item constituting Confidential Information is required by Law, it is
agreed that such party or its Representative, as the case may be, (i) shall notify the other
parties of such requirement as promptly as practicable, (ii) may, without liability hereunder,
disclose such item in the manner it is advised is required by Law and (iii) will exercise its best
efforts to have confidential treatment accorded to any provision of such item that a party hereto
reasonably requests to have accorded such treatment if such requesting party takes primary
responsibility for preparing and, to the extent permissible by law, processing such request and (b)
disclosure of any item of Confidential Information shall be permitted hereunder if and to the
extent expressly permitted by any provision of such item of Confidential Information. For purposes
hereof, Representatives means, with respect to any person, such persons agents, representatives
(including its employees, attorneys, auditors and consultants, financial or otherwise) and
Affiliates.
12.11 Counterparts; Fax and Pdf Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures of the parties transmitted by fax or pdf shall
be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.
12.12 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and
shall not constitute a part hereof.
12.13 Survival. In the event of termination of this Agreement by the parties as
provided in Article 11 above, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and of no further force
and effect, except that Articles 9, 11.2.(c) and Sections 12.5, 12.6, 12.7.(f), 12.8, 12.10 and
12.13 shall survive such termination indefinitely.
