Other Events

At the meeting of annual shareholders held on August 21, 2014, the Company’s shareholders, by a majority vote, approved the proposal from one of the Company’s shareholders, to redeem the preferred share purchase rights pursuant to the rights agreement dated October 21, 1998.  The Company’s Corporate Governance Committee, with the assistance of outside advisors, reviewed various alternatives with respect to the preferred share purchase rights at its meeting held on October 16, 2014, and anticipates providing a final recommendation to the Company’s Board of Directors at its December meeting.

Also at its October meeting, the Company’s Board of Directors discussed generally the timing of the Company’s next annual meeting of shareholders.  Historically, the Company has held its annual meeting of shareholders in April of each year; however, in 2014, the Company held its annual meeting of shareholders in August.  At its most recent meeting, the Company’s Board of Directors generally discussed targeting May 2015 for its next annual meeting of shareholders, and that timeframe will have an impact on the deadlines for our shareholders to submit proposals in connection with the annual meeting.

If the meeting is held in May 2015, the Company would anticipate mailing its proxy materials on or about April 10, 2015.  Accordingly, any shareholder who intends to present a proposal at the annual meeting to be held in 2015 should deliver the written proposal to the Secretary of the Company at our office in Mosinee, Wisconsin not later than December 10, 2014, if the proposal is submitted for inclusion in our proxy materials for the 2015 meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

With respect to shareholder proposals submitted pursuant to our bylaws (and not intended to be included in our proxy materials), the window for submitting proposals (found in Bylaw II - Section 2.13 of our Company’s bylaws) is not earlier than 120 days prior to the date of our 2015 annual meeting, and not later than 90 days prior to the date of our annual meeting, unless the first public announcement of our 2015 annual meeting is made less than 100 days prior to the date of that meeting, in which case the deadline is the 10^th day following our announcement of the annual meeting date.  We anticipate making a public announcement regarding our 2015 annual meeting date in December 2014, which will be more than 100 days prior to the date our 2015 meeting is held.

Shareholders may present a proposal at the 2015 annual meeting for consideration only if proper notice of the proposal has been given in accordance with one of these requirements.  Nominations for
