                                  INTRODUCTION

         This Amendment No. 3 to Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule
13E-3 (the "Final Amendment") amends the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on
Schedule 13E-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 24,
2000 (as previously amended, the "Schedule 13E-3"). Except as specifically set
forth in this Final Amendment, all information in the Schedule 13E-3 remains
unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference. This Final Amendment is being
filed by Jason Incorporated, a Wisconsin corporation (the "Company") and the
issuer of the equity securities which are the subject of a Rule 13e-3
transaction, Saw Mill Capital Fund II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
("Saw Mill"), Jason Holdings, Inc. I, a Delaware corporation (f/k/a Calendar
Holdings, Inc., "Parent") and Vincent L. Martin and Mark Train (the Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer, respectively, of the Company and collectively the
"Management Shareholders"). This Final Amendment and the Schedule 13E-3 relate
to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 30, 2000 (as amended,
the "Merger Agreement"), among the Company, Saw Mill, Parent, Calendar
Acquisition Corp., a Wisconsin corporation ("Merger Sub") and the Management
Shareholders, pursuant to which the parties agreed that Merger Sub would be
merged (the "Merger") with and into the Company.

         This Final Amendment is being filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), to report the results of
the Merger. The Company was the surviving corporation in the Merger. Merger Sub,
which was a party to the Merger Agreement and the Merger, is not a party to this
Final Amendment because it no longer exists as a corporation as a result of the
Merger, which was consummated on August 4, 2000.

ITEMS 1, 4, 11 AND 15

         Items 1, 4, 11 and 15 of the Schedule 13E-3 are hereby amended and
supplemented to add the following information:

         The annual meeting of the Company was held on June 27, 2000 (the
"Annual Meeting"). May 30, 2000 (the "Record Date") was the record date for
shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting.
20,528,377 shares of the Company's common stock, $.10 par value per share (the
"Common Stock"), were outstanding on the Record Date. At the Annual Meeting,
17,687,059 shares of Common Stock (86.159% of all shares of Common Stock
entitled to vote and 99.856% of all shares of Common Stock actually voted with
respect to the Merger) were voted in favor of the Merger, 24,605 shares of
Common Stock were voted against the Merger and 942 shares abstained from voting.
Articles of Merger were filed by the Company and Merger Sub on August 4, 2000
and, accordingly, the Merger was consummated and became effective on that date.

         As a result of the consummation of the Merger, (a) each outstanding
share of Common Stock other than (i) Common Stock owned by the Company or its
subsidiaries, (ii) Common Stock owned by Merger Sub and its affiliates
(including 2,437,262 shares of Common Stock owned by the Management Shareholders
which was contributed to Parent prior to the Merger) and (iii) Common Stock
owned by shareholders who perfected their dissenters' rights in accordance with
Wisconsin law, were converted into the right to receive $11.25 in cash without

<PAGE>   3

interest thereon (the "Merger Consideration"); and (b) each outstanding option
to acquire a share of Common Stock was converted into the right to receive an
amount per share equal to the Merger Consideration minus the exercise price per
share for each such option, without interest thereon.

         Immediately after the Merger, Parent owned 100% of the Company, Saw
Mill owned approximately 50% of Parent, the Management Shareholders owned
approximately 35% of Parent and certain other members of management of the
Company owned approximately 7% of Parent.

                                    SIGNATURE

     After due inquiry and to the best of their knowledge and belief, the
undersigned certify that the information set forth in the statement is true,
complete and correct.
