SUPPLEMENT TO FORM 4
Name of Reporting Person Name of Issuer
Pacific Electric Wire & Cable Co., Ltd. Monaco Finance, Inc.: MONFA
For the Purposes of this supplement to Form 4, Pacific USA Holdings
Corp. ("Pacific"), Pacific Electric Wire & Cable Co., Ltd. ("Pacific
Electric"), and Consumer Finance Holdings, Inc. ("Consumer") together shall
be the "Reporting Person." Pacific and Consumer are directly or indirectly
wholly owned by Pacific Electric.
Pursuant to the terms of a Conversion and Rights Agreement, dated April 25,
1997, between Pacific and Monaco (the "Conversion Agreement"), Consumer
acquired 1,500,000 shares of the Class A Common Stock (the "Class A Shares")
of Monaco Finance, Inc. ("Monoco" or "Issuer") upon conversion of a
Promissory Note of Monaco, dated October 29, 1996, held by Pacific in the
original principal amount of $3,000,000. Each Class A Share is entitled to
one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of Monaco's common stockholders.
The Promissory Note evidenced a loan made to Monaco by Pacific pursuant to
the terms of a Loan Agreement, dated October 29, 1996. The funds for the
loan were obtained from Pacific's working capital.
Pursuant to the terms of an Option Agreement, dated December 4, 1997
(the "Option Agreement"), by and among Consumer and Morris Ginsburg ("Mr.
Ginsburg"), Sandler Family Partners, Ltd. ("Sandler FP"), and Irwin L.
Sandler ("Mr. Sandler"), Consumer acquired the right to purchase all, but not
less than all, of 830,000 shares of Monoco's Class B Common Stock, $.01 par
value (the "Option Shares"), at an exercise price of $4.00 per share at any
time prior to December 4, 2000. Mr. Ginsburg is Chairman of the Board,
President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of Issuer. Mr. Sandler is
Executive Vice President, Secretary/Treasurer and a director of Issuer. Each
share of Class B Common Stock is entitled to three votes on all matters
submitted to a vote of Monaco's common stockholders and is automatically
convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock, which has one vote per
share, upon the occurrence of certain events. The Class A Common Stock and
the Class B Common Stock vote as a class on all matters submitted to a vote
of the Common Stock of Monaco. The Option Agreement terminates on December
4, 2000, unless earlier consummated or terminated. Pursuant to the Option
Agreement, each optionor has a right to cause Consumer to purchase (the
"Put") one half of the Class B Common Stock held by such optionor to Consumer
during the 30 day periods following each of December 4, 1999, and December 4,
2000, at a price of $4.00 per share. In connection with the execution of the
Option Agreement, and as contemplated therein, Consumer placed in a
segregated account $3,320,000, which account has been pledged to Mr. Ginsburg
and Sandler FP to secure the full purchase price of the Option Shares and,
alternatively, the full amount Consumer will be obligated to pay for the
Option Shares upon exercise in full of the "Put" provisions of the Option
Agreement. The source of such funds was the working capital of Pacific. In
the event that Consumer or any of its affiliates exercises the Option, and
within 180 days after closing thereof, sells or agrees to sell any portion of
the Shares to a person who is not an affiliate of Consumer for a price
greater than $4.00 per share, the seller shall be obligated to pay the
Shareholders 50% of such excess. The Shareholders agreed not to pledge, sell
or otherwise transfer the Option Shares at any time during the term of the
Option except to the extent of exercise of the Put. Upon exercise of either
the Option or the Put, the Class B Common Stock so purchased by Consumer
will, pursuant to its terms, automatically convert into Class A Common Stock
thereby reducing the voting power of Reporting Person.
On or about May 14, 1993, the Company, Sandler Family Partners, and
Messrs. Ginsburg and Sandler entered into a Buy-Sell Agreement giving the
Company the right to buy all shares of its capital stock owned by Mr.
Ginsburg upon his death and all shares of its capital stock beneficially
owned by Mr. Sandler upon his death. In addition, the Company had a right of
first refusal to purchase any such stock desired to be sold by Mr. Ginsburg
or Sandler Family Partners. This right of first refusal was exercisable by
either the Issuer or the non-selling Shareholder. The parties to the
Buy-Sell Agreement have agreed that the purchase rights and obligations under
the Option Agreement shall supersede the purchase and right of first refusal
provisions contained in the Buy-Sell Agreement during the term of the Option
Agreement.
Also, pursuant to the terms of the Option Agreement, Consumer obtained
irrevocable proxies coupled with an interest from Mr. Ginsburg and Sandler FP
whereby Consumer has the right to vote all of the Option Shares on all
matters presented to the shareholders during the term of the Option
Agreement. Further, pursuant to the terms of the Option Agreement, Consumer
acquired the right to direct the exercise of all consensual or other voting
rights with respect to 443,715 additional shares of the Issuer's Class B
Common Stock as to which Mr. Ginsburg and Mr. Sandler hold a proxy to vote,
subject to the fiduciary duty owed to the grantor of any such proxy.
