PGT, Inc. PGTI, the leading U.S. manufacturer and supplier of residential impact-resistant windows and doors, announced that it had filed a shelf registration statement with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission on Form S-3 pursuant to a notice from JLL Partners Fund IV, LP ("JLL"), the holder of approximately 62% of the Company's outstanding common stock, under a registration rights agreement between JLL and the Company. The Company said that JLL has advised it that JLL has not made any definitive determination as to the number of shares, if any, it intends to sell pursuant to such registration statement, after it is declared effective by the SEC, nor the timing of any such sales. Any sales by JLL of its outstanding shares will not have a dilutive effect on the Company. The Company also said that it has no current intent to sell any primary shares of its common stock pursuant to the registration statement.
