We’re pleased to tell you that today PWEagle signed a definitive merger agreement with JM Manufacturing, and we plan to move into a new and exciting era together. This transaction, which we expect will close in the second quarter of 2007, will give us an opportunity to elevate the quality of products and services by benchmarking against the best practices of both companies.

But, we’re not going to rest on our laurels. We know that to build upon success, it’s imperative to offer customers superior quality and service, industry innovations, and a broad range of the best products for various applications. As a result, we are always exploring partnerships that would grow the value we can bring to our customers.
By combining PWEagle and JM Manufacturing, we have a simple goal: to continue to be your most effective and efficient partner. Our passion is to help you build your business by delivering the quality products you need, when and where you need them, at competitive prices. PWEagle and JM Manufacturing share a commitment to the industry that we believe is unique and will prove to be a significant force in helping you grow your business.
While we understand that many of you will have questions, please understand that since this agreement is not completed and is subject to regulatory review, we are not in a position at this time to discuss our plans going forward. Rest assured that as we have answers we will share them with you. In the meantime, please feel free to call your local PWEagle representative.
During the transition, both companies will remain totally focused on providing you with superior products and unparalleled quality. We appreciate your business and your confidence. We believe this merger will enhance the strength of our relationship with your business and give us a means for exploring new opportunities.
Sincerely,
/s/ Jerry Dukes
