Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

 

(b)   On October 7, 2004, Robert L. Edwards, a member of the Board of Directors of Apogee Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”), resigned from the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

(d)   On October 6, 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company elected a new director, Mark A. Burke. There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Burke and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Burke was selected as a director. Mr. Burke will serve on the finance committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. During fiscal 2004, Mr. Burke served as President and Chief Executive Officer of Vitro America, Inc. (“Vitro America”). The skylight division of Vitro America purchased glass in the aggregate amount of $2,300,000 from Viracon, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, during fiscal 2004. The terms of all such purchases were negotiated at arms’ length and resulted in terms as fair to the Company as could have been obtained from third parties, and Mr. Burke did not have a material interest in any such purchases. Sales of glass to Vitro America accounted for less than 1% of the Company’s revenue during fiscal 2004.

 

A press release, dated October 11, 2004, announcing Mr. Edwards’s resignation from, and Mr. Burke’s election to, the Company’s Board of Directors is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
