RGR – STURM RUGER & CO INC: PRER14A:
- On April 9, 2026, Ruger representatives, including Mr. Cosentino, Mr. Seyfert and Ruger Board member Stephen Timm, met in New York with Beretta representatives, including Mr. Eckert and, by telephone, Mr. Beretta. At the meeting, Beretta provided feedback on Ruger’s proposals and Ruger and Beretta discussed potential amendments thereto, with a view towards avoiding a proxy contest.
- On April 11, 2026, W&C sent a proposed draft cooperation agreement to Olshan and Reed Smith, which was conceptually based on Ruger’s April 2, 2026 term sheet, as adjusted to take into account the April 9, 2026 New York meeting. As of the date of this preliminary proxy statement, discussions between Ruger and its advisors, on the one hand, and Beretta and its advisors, on the other hand, remained ongoing.
