Item 5.  Other events

        In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company is providing the
following cautionary statements identifying factors that could cause the
Company's actual results to differ materially from those projected in
forward-looking statements of the Company made by, or on behalf of, the
Company.

        The statements made by the Company in its filings under the Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), its financial reporting and other
communications with shareholders and other constituencies that are
forward-looking are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those set forth in such
forward-looking statements. The risks that could cause actual results to differ
materially include, but are not limited to: (i) volatility of resin pricing,
(ii) changes in the pattern of construction spending in both the new
construction, and repair and rehabilitation markets, (iii) changes in the
number and distribution of housing starts, (iv) fluctuations in the interest
rate affecting housing starts, (v) unpredictable technological innovations that
could make the Company's products comparatively less attractive, (vi) changes
in local, state and federal regulations relating to building codes and the
environment (in each case as they may affect the attractiveness of the
Company's products and manufacturing costs), and (vii) a reversal in the
country's general pattern of economic improvement affecting the markets for the
Company's products.
