Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The Share Repurchase and Debt Refinancing

On May 16, 2013, PGT, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a stock repurchase agreement (the “Repurchase Agreement”) with JLL Partners Fund IV, L.P. (“JLL Fund IV”) to repurchase $50 million aggregate value of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), from JLL Fund IV at a price per share equal to the offering price to the public in a concurrent public offering commenced the same day (the “Offering”) less the underwriting discounts and commissions received by the underwriters in connection with the Offering (the “Share Repurchase”). A special committee of the Company’s board of directors comprised of independent, disinterested directors (the “Special Committee”) approved the Share Repurchase subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Repurchase Agreement, including the consummation of the Debt Refinancing (as defined below) and the contemporaneous closing of the Offering.

The Offering is being made pursuant to a prospectus supplement, dated May 16, 2013, to a prospectus, dated May 10, 2013, included in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-187481), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 22, 2013.

The foregoing description of the material terms of the Repurchase Agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Repurchase Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Security Holders’ Agreement

On May 16, 2013, the Company also entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to Amended and Restated Security Holders’ Agreement (the “Security Holders’ Agreement”) with JLL Fund IV. Amendment No. 1 extends the term of the Security Holders’ Agreement until July 1, 2016, subject to certain restrictions contained therein. The Special Committee approved Amendment No. 1. The foregoing description of the material terms of Amendment No. 1 is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Amendment No. 1 and the Security Holders’ Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

In connection with the Share Repurchase, the Company entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) with various lenders, including an affiliate of one of the underwriters of the Offering, to refinance its existing senior secured credit facilities (the “Debt Refinancing”). The Company expects that the new senior secured credit facilities, in an aggregate amount of $105 million, will consist of an $80 million tranche A term loan facility maturing in five years that will amortize on a basis of 5% annually during the five-year term, and a $25 million

 

2


revolving credit facility maturing in five years that will include a $5 million swing line facility and a $10 million letter of credit facility. Proceeds from the Debt Refinancing will be used to pay off the amounts outstanding under the Company’s current credit facility, finance the Share Repurchase and pay associated fees and expenses.

5.2 Further Assurances. From time to time after the date hereof, at the Company’s request and without further consideration from the Company, JLL shall execute and deliver such other instruments of conveyance and transfer and take such other action as the Company may reasonably require to convey, transfer to and vest in the Company and to put the Company in possession of the Repurchased Shares to be sold, transferred and delivered hereunder and to carry out the purposes of this Agreement.

5.3 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the Parties set forth herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

5.4 Alteration; No Waiver; Headers. No alteration, modification, or change of this Agreement shall be valid unless made in writing executed by the Parties. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder (and no course of dealing between or among any of the Parties) shall operate as a waiver of any right, power or privilege.

 

- 4 -


No waiver of any default on any one occasion shall constitute a waiver of any subsequent or other default. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege shall preclude the further or full exercise thereof. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

5.5 Entire Agreement; Counterparts. This Agreement contains the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated among them and supersedes all previous negotiations, commitments, and other writings and oral communications. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

5.6 Expenses. Each Party will pay its own expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein.

5.7 Interpretation. This Agreement constitutes the product of the negotiation of the Parties and the enforcement hereof shall be interpreted in a neutral manner, and not more strongly for or against any Party based upon the source of the draftsmanship hereof. Any reference to any Federal, state, local or foreign law or statute shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context otherwise requires.

5.8 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement will be reformed, construed, and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

5.9 Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived only with the prior written consent of the Parties. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Moreover, no failure by any Party to insist upon strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy arising out of a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions or any other breaches of this Agreement.

5.10 Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns. This Agreement is not assignable by JLL without the prior written consent of the Company.

5.11 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflicts of law principles. Each Party hereby agrees and consents to be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in and for New Castle County or, if the Court of Chancery lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any court of the State of Delaware situated in New Castle County or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware in any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in

5.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
