AMENDMENT TO ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 29, 2000,
is by and among First Banks, Inc., a Missouri corporation ("First Banks"), First
State Bank of Taos, a New Mexico state bank ("First State Bank"), and First
Capital Group, Inc., a New Mexico corporation ("FCG").
On December 31, 1999 First Banks, First State Bank and FCG executed the
Asset Purchase Agreement. The parties have concluded that it would be desirable
to amend certain provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement, as set forth herein
(the "Agreement"). Except as specifically amended herein, the terms and
provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in
the Agreement, except that following the execution of this Amendment, the term
"Agreement" refers to the Asset Purchase Agreement, as amended hereby.
1. Section 2.03(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its
entirety as follows:
The purchase price for all of the Assets except Acquired Loans shall
be determined on the Closing Date as described on the Exhibit to this
Amendment, and shall be equal to the Book Value of the Lease Portfolio at
the close of business on the business day preceding the Closing Date plus a
purchase premium of $1,577,089.32, minus the Book Value of participated
leases at the close of business day preceding the Closing Date, minus the
Book Value at the close of business on the business day preceding the
Closing Date of the leases excluded from the Asset Purchase by First Banks
pursuant to Section 1.03(b) of this Agreement, minus 2.5%times the Book
Value of the leases excluded from the Asset Purchase pursuant to Section
1.03(b) if this Agreement.
2. Section 2.04 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its
entirety as follows:
Section 2.04 Prorations; Incentive Compensation. (a) Except as
otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, First State Bank and FCG
shall operate for their own accounts the equipment leasing business to by
transferred until the close of business on the Closing Date, and the
Purchaser shall operate such business after the Closing Date.
(b) Items of expenses directly attributable to the operation of the
Assumed Leases and the office expenses of FCG, except for incentive
compensation relating to leases originated from January 1, 2000 through the
Closing Date, shall be prorated and paid as of the closing of business on
the Closing Date, whether or not such payments would normally have been
made as of such time. Expenses to be prorated may include, without
limitation, employee compensation other than incentive compensation,
property and casualty
insurance (if such prorations are not made by the applicable insurer(s)),
telephone, electric, gas, water, and other utility services, security
services, assessments (including regulatory assessments), payments due on
Assumed Leases, and similar expenses and revenue related to the business of
FCG. Prior to the Closing, First State Bank and FCG will pay all incentive
compensation relating to leases originated prior to January 1, 2000.
(c) Promptly following the Closing, First Banks will implement a
system for the payment of incentive compensation to employees of First
State Bank and FCG who become employees of the Purchaser after the Closing
(the "First Banks Plan"), which system will govern compensation of the
employees of Purchaser who receive incentive compensation and will be
different than that utilized by First State Bank and FCG. In the event that
any such compensation is payable as of the Closing Date to employees with
respect to leases originated by FCG from January 1, 2000 through the
Closing Date (according to the terms of the First Banks Plan), First Banks
or Purchaser will pay the appropriate amounts to such employees within ten
days following the Closing Date.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as
of the day and year first above written.
