The Preferred Stock shall have the rights, preferences and limitations set forth in Part B. The Common Stock shall have the rights, preferences and limitations set forth in Part C. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in Part A, Part B or Part C of this Article Fourth are defined in Part D.

In accordance with the provisions of § 242(b)(2) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the number of authorized shares of any class or classes of stock may be increased or decreased by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon irrespective of the class vote requirements set forth in § 242(b)(2) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (but, in the case of any decrease, not below the number of outstanding shares of any such class or classes).

Part B. Powers, Preferences and Special Rights of the Preferred Stock

Section 1.    Dividends.

1A. General Obligation. When and as declared by the Corporation’s Board of Directors and to the extent permitted under the General Corporation Law of Delaware, the Corporation shall pay preferential dividends to the holders of the Preferred Stock as provided in this Section 1. Dividends on each share (a “Share”) of the Preferred Stock shall accrue on a daily basis at the rate of 11.0% per annum of the sum of the Liquidation Value thereof plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon from and including the date of issuance of such Share to and including the first to occur of (i) the date on which the Liquidation Value of such Share (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon) is paid to the holder thereof in connection with the liquidation of the Corporation or (ii) the date on which such Share is otherwise acquired by the Corporation. Such dividends shall accrue whether or not they have been declared and whether or not there are profits, surplus or other funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends. The date on which the Corporation initially issues any Share shall be deemed to be its “date of issuance” regardless of the number of times transfer of such Share is made on the stock records maintained by or for the Corporation and regardless of the

number of certificates which may be issued to evidence such Share. In addition, the date on which the Corporation initially grants any option or any other security or right exercisable or convertible into shares of Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be the “date of issuance” of the underlying Shares regardless of when such right or security is exercised or converted and the Shares are issued.

1B. Dividend Reference Dates. To the extent not paid on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning June 30, 2004 (the “Dividend Reference Dates”), all dividends which have accrued on each Share outstanding or deemed outstanding for purposes of dividends in accordance with the last sentence of Section 1A of this Part B during the three-month period (or other period in the case of the initial Dividend Reference Date) ending upon each such Dividend Reference Date shall be accumulated and shall remain accumulated dividends with respect to such Share until paid to the holder thereof.

1C. Distribution of Partial Dividend Payments. Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the Corporation pays less than the total amount of dividends then accrued with respect to the Shares, such payment shall be distributed pro rata among the holders thereof based upon the aggregate accrued but unpaid dividends on the Shares held by each such holder.

Section 2.    Redemption of Shares of Preferred Stock.

2A. Redemption.

(i) The Corporation shall redeem all of the Shares outstanding on March 31, 2028, at a price per Share equal to the Liquidation Value thereof (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon).

(ii) Subject to Section 4(b)(ii) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Corporation may at any time and from time to time redeem all or any portion of the Shares then outstanding. Upon any such redemption, the Corporation shall pay a price per Share equal to the Liquidation Value thereof (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon).

(iii) If a Change in Ownership has occurred or the Corporation obtains knowledge that a Change in Ownership is proposed to occur, the Corporation shall give prompt written notice of such Change in Ownership describing in reasonable detail the material terms and date of consummation thereof to each holder of Shares, but in any event such notice shall not be given later than five days after the occurrence of such Change in Ownership, and the Corporation shall give each holder of Shares prompt written notice of any material change in the terms or timing of such transaction. The holders of a majority of the Shares then outstanding may require the Corporation to redeem all or any portion (on a pro rata basis) of the Shares then outstanding at a price per Share equal to the Liquidation Value thereof (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon) by giving written notice to the Corporation of such election prior to the later of (a) 21 days after receipt of the Corporation’s notice and (b) five days prior to the consummation of the Change in Ownership (the “Expiration Date”).

The term “Change in Ownership” means (a) any sale, transfer or issuance or series of sales, transfers and/or issuances of Common Stock by the Corporation or any holders thereof which results in any Person or group of Persons (as the term “group” is used under the Securities Exchange Act), other than The Hillman Companies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Hillman”), owning 50.01% or more of the Common Stock outstanding at the time of such sale, transfer or issuance or series of sales, transfers and/or issuances and (b) any sale, transfer or issuance or series of sales, transfers and/or issuances of Hillman’s common stock, par value $.01 per share (“Hillman Common Stock”), by Hillman or any holders thereof which results in any Person or group of Persons (as the term “group” is used under the Securities Exchange Act), other than Code Hennessy & Simmons IV LP or its affiliates, owning 50.01% or more of the Hillman Common Stock outstanding at the time of such sale, transfer or issuance or series of sales, transfers and/or issuances.

Upon receipt of such election(s), the Corporation shall be obligated to redeem such Shares on the later of (a) the occurrence of the Change in Ownership or (b) five days after the Corporation’s receipt of such election(s). If any proposed Change in Ownership does not occur, the request for redemption in connection therewith shall be automatically rescinded, or if there has been a material change in the terms or the timing of the transaction, the holders of a majority of the Shares then outstanding may rescind the request for redemption by delivering written notice thereof to the Corporation prior to the consummation of the transaction.

(iv) If a Fundamental Change is proposed to occur, the Corporation shall give written notice of such Fundamental Change describing in reasonable detail the material terms and date of consummation thereof to each holder of Shares not more than 45 days nor less than 20 days prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Change, and the Corporation shall give each holder of Shares prompt written notice of any material change in the terms or timing of such transaction. The holders of a majority of the Shares then outstanding may require the Corporation to redeem all or any portion (on a pro rata basis) of the Shares at a price per Share equal to the Liquidation Value thereof (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon) by giving written notice to the Corporation of such election prior to the later of (a) ten days prior to the consummation of the Fundamental Change or (b) ten days after receipt of notice from the Corporation.

The term “Fundamental Change” means (a) any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries or Hillman and its Subsidiaries, in either case, on a consolidated basis in any transaction or series of transactions, (b) any merger or consolidation to which the Corporation is a party, except for a merger in which the Corporation, is the surviving entity, the terms of the Shares are not changed and the Shares are not exchanged for cash, securities or other property, and after giving effect to such merger, the holders of the Corporation’s outstanding capital stock possessing a majority of the voting power (under ordinary circumstances) to elect a

majority of the Corporation’s Board of Directors immediately prior to the merger shall continue to own the Corporation’s outstanding capital stock possessing the voting power (under ordinary circumstances) to elect a majority of the Corporation’s Board of Directors and (c) any merger or consolidation to which Hillman is a party, except for a merger in which Hillman is the surviving entity and, after giving effect to such merger, the holders of Hillman’s outstanding capital stock possessing a majority of the voting power (under ordinary circumstances) to elect a majority of the Hillman’s Board of Directors immediately prior to the merger shall continue to own the Hillman’s outstanding capital stock possessing the voting power (under ordinary circumstances) to elect a majority of the Hillman’s Board of Directors.

Upon receipt of such election(s) the Corporation shall be obligated to redeem such Shares upon the consummation of such Fundamental Change. If any proposed Fundamental Change does not occur, all requests for redemption in connection therewith shall be automatically rescinded, or if there has been a material change in the terms or the timing of the transaction, the holders of a majority of the Shares then outstanding may rescind the request for redemption by delivering written notice thereof to the Corporation prior to the consummation of the transaction.

2B. Provisions Relating to Redemption Generally.

(i) For each Share which is required to be redeemed hereunder, the Corporation shall be obligated on the Redemption Date to pay to the holder thereof (upon surrender by such holder at the Corporation’s principal office of the certificate representing such Share) an amount in immediately available funds equal to the amounts required to effect such redemption as specified herein. If the funds of the Corporation legally available for redemption of Shares on any Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem the total number of Shares to be redeemed on such date, those funds which are legally available shall be used to redeem the maximum possible number of Shares pro rata among the holders of the Shares to be redeemed based upon the aggregate Liquidation Value of such Shares (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon). Unless otherwise elected in writing by the holders of a majority of the Shares, at any time thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation are legally available for the redemption of Shares, such funds shall immediately be used to redeem the balance of the Shares which the Corporation has become obligated to redeem on any Redemption Date but which it has not redeemed.

(ii) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Corporation shall mail written notice of each redemption of Shares to each record holder of such class not more than 60 nor less than 15 days prior to the date on which such redemption is to be made. In case fewer than the total number of Shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate representing the number of unredeemed Shares, as applicable, shall be issued to the holder thereof without cost to such holder within five business days after surrender of the certificate representing the redeemed Shares.

(iii) The number of Shares to be redeemed from each holder thereof in redemptions hereunder shall be the number of Shares determined by multiplying the total

number of such Shares to be redeemed times a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of such Shares then held by such holder and the denominator of which shall be the total number of such Shares then outstanding.

(iv) Dividends shall no longer accrue with respect to any Share after the date on which the Liquidation Value thereof plus all of the accrued and unpaid dividends, as applicable, thereon, is paid to the holder of such Share.

(v) Any Shares which are redeemed or otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall be canceled and retired to authorized but unissued Shares and shall not be reissued, sold or transferred.

Section 3.    Liquidation. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (whether voluntary or involuntary), each holder of Shares shall be entitled to be paid, before any distribution or payment is made upon any Junior Securities, an amount in cash equal to the aggregate Liquidation Value of all Shares held by such holder (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon), and the holders of Shares shall not be entitled to any further payment. If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation the Corporation’s assets to be distributed among the holders of the Shares are insufficient to permit payment to such holders of the aggregate amount which they are entitled to be paid under this Section 3, then the entire assets available to be distributed to the Corporation’s stockholders shall be distributed pro rata among such holders based upon the aggregate Liquidation Value (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends) of the Shares held by each such holder. Not less than 60 days prior to the payment date stated therein, the Corporation shall mail written notice of any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up to each record holder of Shares, setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of proceeds to be paid with respect to each Share and each share of Common Stock in connection with such liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

Section 4.    Priority of Shares on Dividends and Redemptions. So long as any Share remains outstanding, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares the Corporation shall not, nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to, redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire directly or indirectly any Junior Securities, nor shall the Corporation directly or indirectly pay or declare any dividend or make any distribution upon any Junior Securities; provided that, subject to section 4(b)(ii) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Corporation may repurchase shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock from present or former employees of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries in accordance with the provisions of the Repurchase Agreements; provided, further, that the Corporation may declare and pay dividends on the Common Stock to Hillman: (A) for the purpose of paying (1) the then currently due fees and expenses of Hillman’s counsel, accountants and other advisors and consultants, and other operating and administrative expenses of Hillman (including employee and compensation expenditures and other similar costs and expenses) incurred in the ordinary course of business, including fees and expenses relating to financings or refinancings of Hillman or any of its Subsidiaries, (2) the then currently due fees and expenses of Hillman’s independent directors and observers and (3) the then currently due taxes (income,

franchise or other taxes) payable by Hillman and the reasonable expenses of preparing returns reflecting such taxes; (B) the amount that Hillman is required to pay for federal, state, local or other taxes on income as the common parent of an affiliated group (within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended); (C) to permit Hillman to make payments of principal and interest on, or expenses related to, the junior subordinated debentures issued by Hillman to The Hillman Group Capital Trust pursuant to the indenture dated September 5, 1997 between Hillman and The Bank of New York as the trustee; (D) to permit Hillman to repurchase shares of capital stock from present or former officers, employees or directors of Hillman or its Subsidiaries or to make payments on notes issued in connection with the prior repurchase of such capital stock; and (E) if such dividend would otherwise be permitted to be paid to Hillman under the Credit Agreement.
