STATE OF ALABAMA
MONTGOMERY COUNTY
SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL LEASE AGREEMENT made and entered into as
of
July 1, 2002 (this "Second Supplemental
Lease") between THE INDUSTRIAL
DEVELOPMENT BOARD OF THE CITY OF MONTGOMERY
(the "Issuer"), a public corporation
organized under the laws of the State of
Alabama (the "State"), and KINPAK INC.,
an Alabama corporation, its successors and
assigns (the "Company"), under the
circumstances summarized in the following
recitals (the capitalized terms not
defined in the recitals being used therein
as defined in Article I hereof or, if
not otherwise defined herein, in the
Existing Lease hereinafter mentioned, which
definitions are hereby incorporated by
reference herein):
A. The Issuer has been heretofore organized under and is authorized
by
the Act to acquire, enlarge, improve,
expand, own, lease, and dispose of
properties to the end that the Issuer may
be able to promote industry and
develop trade by inducing manufacturing,
industrial, commercial and research
enterprises to locate in the State, or to
enlarge and expand existing
enterprises, or both, and further the use
of the agricultural products and
natural resources of the State.
B. Pursuant to and in furtherance of the public purposes expressed
in
the Act, the Issuer heretofore on October
17, 1979 issued its revenue bonds (all
of which have been paid in full as of the
date hereof) and applied the proceeds
thereof to pay costs of a "project", within
the meaning of the Act, consisting
of the acquisition, construction and
equipping of certain manufacturing
facilities (the "Initial Facilities") which
the Issuer leased to Kinark
Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Kinark"), pursuant to a lease agreement
dated as of December 1, 1979 and recorded
in the office of the Judge of Probate
of the County (the "Probate Office") in
RLPY Book 461, Page 566.
C. The Company succeeded to the position of Kinark as lessee of
the
Initial Facilities pursuant to two
successive Assignments and Assumptions of
Lease, the first dated as of February 27,
1996 among the Issuer, Kinark and
Bio-Chem and recorded in the Probate Office
in RLPY Book 1639, Page 276, the
second dated as of December 1, 1996 among
the Issuer, Bio-Chem and the Company
and recorded in the Probate Office in RLPY
Book 1718, Page 613.
D. At the request of the Company, the Issuer heretofore on December
20,
1996 issued certain revenue bonds on a
Taxable basis (the "1996 Bonds") and
applied the proceeds thereof to pay costs
of an additional "project", within the
meaning of the Act, consisting of the
renovation and improvement of the Initial
Facilities and the acquisition,
construction and equipping of an expansion
<PAGE>
thereto (the "1996 Project"). In connection
with the issuance of the 1996 Bonds,
the Issuer and the Company entered into the
Restated Lease Agreement dated as of
December 1, 1996, described on the cover
page hereof (the "Original Lease"). The
Initial Facilities, as improved and
expanded by the 1996 Project, constitute the
"Existing Facilities".
E. On March 3, 1997, the Issuer issued the 1997 Bonds on a
non-Taxable
basis to refund all the 1996 Bonds, in
connection with which the Issuer and the
Company entered into the First Supplemental
Lease Agreement dated as of March 1,
1997, described on the cover page hereof
(the "First Supplemental Lease"). The
Original Lease, as amended and supplemented
by the First Supplemental Lease, is
herein referred to as the "Existing
Lease".
F. In May 2000, the Company proposed to the Issuer the undertaking
of
the 2002 Project, constituting yet another
"project" within the meaning of the
Act. In support of such proposal, the
Issuer adopted the Inducement Resolution
and the Bond Resolution and is now prepared
to proceed with the issuance of the
Bonds pursuant to the Indenture and to
apply the proceeds thereof to pay or
reimburse a portion of the Project Costs.
In connection with the foregoing, it
is both necessary and desirable that the
parties further amend and supplement
the Existing Lease by entering into this
Second Supplemental Lease.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the
mutual
covenants and agreements hereinafter
contained, the parties to this Second
Supplemental Lease hereby formally
