We cannot complete the merger unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of PW Eagle common stock vote to approve and adopt the merger agreement. The failure of any shareholder to vote on the proposal to approve and adopt the merger agreement will have the same effect as a vote against the approval and adoption of the merger agreement.We respectfully request that you vote your shares at your earliest convenience.
