ITEM 8.01.  Other Events.

On July 24, 2008, PGT, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that its board of directors had declared a special dividend consisting of rights to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, with an aggregate value of approximately $30 million to all holders of record of the Company’s common stock as of the close of business on August 4, 2008 (the “Rights Offering”).
 
Pursuant to the Rights Offering, the Company will distribute to each holder of record of its common stock, at no charge, one non-transferable subscription right for every four shares of common stock such holder owns as of close of business on August 4, 2008.  Each whole subscription right will entitle its holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at the subscription price of $4.20 per share.  The Company expects to distribute the subscription rights to stockholders on or about August 6, 2008, after the registration statement relating to the Rights Offering is declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The Rights Offering will expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on September 4, 2008, unless extended.
 
A copy of the press release announcing the record date for stockholders entitled to participate in the Rights Offering is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
