| See Item 4. On May 22, 2013, in connection with the initial public offering of the Issuer, the CI Partnerships, each of the Reporting Persons (together with the CI Partnerships, the “Pre-IPO Stockholders”), the Issuer and Ply Gem Prime Holdings, Inc. entered into a second amended and restated stockholders’ agreement (the “Stockholders Agreement”). Under the Stockholders Agreement, the CI Partnerships (or if such partnerships are dissolved, Holdings) are entitled to nominate a number of directors to the Issuer’s board of directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to the percentage of the Issuer’s common stock beneficially owned by the Pre-IPO Stockholders (assuming the exercise or conversion of all outstanding options (whether vested or unvested) and convertible or exchangeable securities held by the Pre-IPO Stockholders). Under the Stockholders Agreement, each of the Pre-IPO Stockholders has agreed to vote all shares of the Issuer’s voting stock held by it as directed by the CI Partnerships (or if such partnerships are dissolved, Holdings) in any voting matter before the Issuer’s stockholders including, without limitation, elections of directors (including the directors nominated by the CI Partnerships), amendments to the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation, approvals of mergers and other transactions or stockholder proposals, whether in an annual stockholder meeting, special stockholder meeting or an action by written consent. The Stockholders Agreement also contains certain provisions restricting the transfer by each of the Reporting Persons of shares of Common Stock (or options to purchase shares of Common Stock) held by them at the time of the Issuer’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) without the prior consent of the CI Partnerships, subject to certain exceptions, for the first two years after the IPO. The Stockholders Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K (File No. 001-35930) filed with the SEC on May 29, 2013, and the foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by the terms thereof. Given the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, the Reporting Persons together with the CI Stockholders may be deemed to constitute a “group” that for the purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act that, as of the date hereof, collectively beneficially owns approximately 47,755,969 shares, or approximately 69.9%, of the Issuer’s outstanding shares of Common Stock. The share ownership reported herein by each of the Reporting Persons does not include any shares of Common Stock owned by any of the other parties to the Stockholders Agreement. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock other than the shares reported on such Reporting Person’s cover page included herein. |
