"We are certainly disappointed with Shamrock's lack of interest in a cooperative agreement," stated Mel Brekhus, Chief Executive Officer.
The Company believes that Shamrock's demands -- which go beyond its public proposals -- are unreasonable, result in benefits to Shamrock far out of proportion to Shamrock's interest in TXI and, most importantly, are not in the best interest of all of TXI's stockholders.
As part of its discussions with Shamrock, TXI has offered to welcome all of Shamrock's nominees to its board and to include them on the specific board committees requested by Shamrock. In addition, TXI offered to fully consider Shamrock's requests for changes in the Company bylaws.
TXI is the largest producer of cement in Texas and a major cement producer in California. TXI is also a major supplier of construction aggregate, ready-mix concrete and concrete products.
