Ownership See Items 5 through 9 and 11 of cover page(s) as to each reporting person and see the explanation below. The Articles of Incorporation as amended and restated of Huntco Inc. (the "Company") provide for two classes of common stock. One class is the Class A common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Class A Shares") which has one vote per share. The Class A Shares are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The second class of common stock is the Class B common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Class B Shares"). The terms of the Class B Shares are identical to the terms of the Class A Shares, except that each Class B Share is entitled to ten votes and is convertible into one Class A Share. This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13G is being filed by (i) Mr. B.D. Hunter ("Hunter"), (ii) various trusts for the benefit of Hunter's adult children (the "Children's Trusts") (iii) various trusts for the benefit of Hunter's grandchildren (the "Grandchildren's Trusts"), (iv) Huntco Enterprises, Inc. ("Enterprises"), (v) Huntco Farms, Inc. ("HFI"), (vi) Huntco International, Inc. ("HII"), and (vii) Huntco Acquisitions Holding, Inc. ("Acquisitions"). Hunter, the Children's Trusts, the Grandchildren's Trusts, Enterprises, HFI, HII and Acquisitions are referred to collectively hereinafter as the "Hunter Entities". The organizational structure of the Hunter Entities is set forth below. Hunter, who beneficially owns 31% of the voting control of Enterprises, and who is a co-trustee of the Children's Trusts, shares voting and investment control over substantially all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Enterprises. Voting and investment control over the remaining capital stock of Enterprises is shared by an executive officer of the Company and another individual who is Hunter's nephew, in their capacities as co-trustees of the Grandchildren's Trusts. Hunter, Enterprises, the Children's Trusts and the Grandchildren's Trusts own substantially all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of HFI. Hunter, HFI and Enterprises own all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of HII. HII is the sole shareholder of Acquisitions. Acquisitions and Farms are the record owners of 3,145,000 and 505,000 Class B Shares, respectively so that the Hunter Entities own and control all of the issued and outstanding Class B Shares. The Class A shares deemed to be beneficially owned by each of the Hunter Entities pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1) (which assumes the conversion of the Class B Shares into Class A Shares) is set forth with more specificity below. The actual voting control of the Company represented by the ownership of the Class B Shares (which have not actually been converted) and the Class A Shares is set forth for Hunter and for Acquisitions and Farms as the record holders of the Class B Shares. For the sake of simplicity, ownership of all of the Class B Shares owned by any one Hunter Entity which is a corporation (and the shared voting and investment power which accompanies such ownership) is attributed to each of that particular corporate entity's direct and indirect shareholders. The reader is cautioned, however, to avoid "double counting." Nothing in this Amendment No. 2 shall be deemed an admission that any particular Hunter Entity is the actual beneficial owner of the Class B Shares deemed under Rule 13d-3 to be beneficially owned by it. Further, Hunter acknowledges that although he may be deemed under Rule 13d-3(d) to share voting and investment control over the capital stock of Enterprises held of record in his name as co-trustee of the Children's Trust (which therefore gives him indirect shared voting and investment power over a substantial portion of the Class B Shares held of record by Acquisitions and Farms) he maintains that he does not "control" the Children's Trusts as that term is used in, or in the context of, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Hunter - ------ Hunter is deemed to share indirect voting and investment power over a total of 3,699,500 Class A Shares, consisting of (i) 3,650,000 issued and outstanding Class B Shares (which are convertible into Class A Shares) through (x) his revocable living trust and (y) his capacity as co-trustee of the Children's Trusts, pursuant to which he shares voting and investment power over substantially all of the capital stock of Enterprises, Farms, HII and Acquisitions and (ii) 37,000 Class A shares owned by a corporation of which Mr. Hunter owns 49% of the issued and outstanding capital stock and another executive of the Company owns the other 51%. Hunter has sole voting and investment power over 12,500 Class A Shares including 2,500 Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of non-qualified stock options as of December 31, 1998, which were awarded to him under the Company's 1993 Incentive Stock Plan. In addition to the 49,500 Class A Shares which Hunter actually owns or is deemed to beneficially own, if all of the Class B Shares over which he is deemed to share voting and investment power were converted into Class A Shares, Hunter would be deemed to beneficially own 41.4% of the Class A Shares calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1). Without converting, Hunter is deemed to control over 87.4% of the total Company vote through his shared voting and investment control of substantially all of the Class B Shares with their ten-to-one voting rights and through the 49,500 Class A Shares which he owns or is deemed to beneficially own. The Children's Trusts and the Grandchildren's Trusts - ---------------------------------------------------- The Children's Trusts, through their ownership interest in Enterprises (which is also a shareholder of HII) and HFI are deemed to share voting and investment power over the 3,650,000 Class B Shares referenced above which represents 100% of the issued and outstanding Class B Shares and which shares would, if converted into Class A Shares, represent 40.8% of the Class A Shares, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1). Enterprises - ----------- Through its partial ownership of HII which is the sole shareholder of Acquisitions, Enterprises shares voting and investment power with Hunter and HFI, which are the other shareholders of HII, over the 3,145,000 Class B Shares owned by Acquisitions. Through its partial ownership of HFI, Enterprises shares voting and investment power over the 505,000 Class B Shares of which HFI is the record holder. If converted into Class A Shares, the 3,650,000 Class B Shares would represent 40.8% of the Class A Shares, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1). HFI - --- HFI has sole voting and investment power over the 505,000 Class B Shares of which it is the record holder representing 13.8% of all the issued and outstanding Class B Shares and it is deemed to share voting and investment power with Enterprises and Hunter over the 3,145,000 Class B Shares owned by Acquisitions due to those entities' share ownership of HII which is the sole shareholder of Acquisitions. If converted into Class A Shares, the 3,650,000 Class B Shares which HFI is deemed to beneficially own would represent 40.8% of the Class A Shares calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1). If only the 505,000 Class B Shares of which HFI is the actual record holder were converted into Class A Shares, those shares would represent 8.7% of the Class A Shares, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1). The 505,000 Class B Shares with their ten-to-one voting rights represents 12.1% of the total Company vote. HII - --- As the sole shareholder of Acquisitions, HII is deemed to beneficially own and to have sole voting and investment power over the 3,145,000 Class B Shares of which Acquisitions is the record holder. If converted into Class A Shares, the aforementioned 3,145,000 Class B Shares would represent 37.3% of the Class A Shares, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1). Acquisitions - ------------ Acquisitions is deemed to beneficially own and to have sole voting and investment power with respect to the 3,145,000 Class B Shares of which it is the record holder representing 86.2% of all of the issued and outstanding Class B Shares. If converted into Class A Shares, these aforementioned 3,145,000 Class B Shares would represent 37.3% of the Class A Shares, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1). The 3,145,000 Class B Shares with their ten-to-one voting rights represents 75.3% of the total Company vote. Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class. Omitted - Not Applicable. Item 6. Ownership of More Than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person. Omitted - Not Applicable. Item 7.
