As previously disclosed, on December 17, 2023, Masonite International Corporation, a British Columbia corporation (“Masonite”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with PGT Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PGTI”), and Peach Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of Masonite (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub would merge with and into PGTI, with PGTI surviving as an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of Masonite.
