Shareholder Rights Plan

On March 21, 2006, in conjunction with the expiration of the Shareholder Rights Agreement dated March 20, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a Shareholder Rights Agreement granting new rights to holders of the Company's Common Stock.  Under the agreement, the Company authorized and declared a dividend distribution of one right payable on March 31, 2006 for each share of Common Stock of the Company outstanding on March 31, 2006, and the issuance of one right for each share of Common Stock subsequently issued prior to the separation date as defined in the Shareholder Rights Agreement.  Each right entitles the holder to purchase 1/100th of a Preferred Share at the exercise price (currently $30.00), and in an unfriendly takeover situation, to purchase Company Common Stock having a market value equal to two times the exercise price.  Also, if the Company is merged into another corporation, or if 50% or more of the Company's assets are sold, then rights-holders are entitled, upon payment of the exercise price, to buy common shares of the acquiring corporation's common stock having a then current market value equal to two times the exercise price.  In either situation, these rights are not available to the acquiring party.  However, these exercise features will not be activated if the acquiring party makes an offer to acquire all of the Company's outstanding shares at a price which is judged by the Board of Directors to be fair to Patrick shareholders.  The rights may be redeemed by the Company under certain circumstances at the rate of $0.01 per right.  The rights will expire on March 21, 2016.  The Company has authorized 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock Series A, no par value, in connection with this plan, none of which have been issued.
 
On March 12, 2008, in connection with a private placement of common stock with affiliates of TCOMF2 (collectively, “Tontine Capital”), the Company amended the provisions of the Shareholder Rights Agreement to exempt all Tontine Capital entities or any of their affiliates or associates.
