INTRODUCTION

     This Amendment No. 5 to the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (this “Amended Schedule 13E-3”) amends and supplements the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 originally filed on January 19, 2005, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 filed on February 4, 2005, as further amended by Amendment No. 2 to the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 filed on February 10, 2005, as further amended by Amendment No. 3 to the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 filed on March 4, 2005 (“Amendment No. 3”) and as further amended by Amendment No. 4 to the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 filed on March 24, 2005, and is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by (1) Masonite International Corporation, an Ontario corporation (“Masonite”), (2) Stile Acquisition Corp., an Ontario corporation (“Stile”), (3) Stile Consolidated Corp., a Canadian federal corporation that owns 100% of the equity securities of Stile (“Stile Consolidated”), (4) Stile Holding Corp., a Canadian federal corporation that owns 100% of the equity securities of Stile Consolidated (“Stile Holding”), (5) KKR Millennium Fund (Overseas), Limited Partnership, an Alberta limited partnership that owns 100% of the equity securities of Stile Holding (“KKR Millennium,” and together with Stile, Stile Consolidated and Stile Holding, the “Stile Affiliates”), (6) Philip S. Orsino, (7) John F. Ambruz, (8) James U. Morrison and (9) Lawrence P. Repar.

     This Amended Schedule 13E-3 relates to the Combination Agreement, dated December 22, 2004, as amended and restated on January 16, 2005 and as further amended and restated on February 17, 2005, between Masonite and Stile (the “Combination Agreement”), which provides for the acquisition of all the outstanding common shares of Masonite (the “Common Shares”) by Stile pursuant to a plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”). If the Arrangement is approved by the Superior Court of Justice (Ontario) and by Masonite’s shareholders, and the other conditions to the closing of the Arrangement set forth in the Combination Agreement are satisfied or waived, each outstanding Common Share of Masonite will be acquired by Stile for cash consideration of C$42.25 (other than certain Common Shares held by certain employees and officers of Masonite (such Common Shares, the “Employee Rollover Shares”), which will be exchanged for common shares of Stile Holding). Concurrently with the closing of the Arrangement, Philip S. Orsino, John F. Ambruz, James U. Morrison and Lawrence P. Repar (collectively, the “Management Investors”) have agreed to invest an aggregate of at least US$19.5 million in equity securities of Stile Holding, contingent on the Management Investors reaching satisfactory investment terms with Stile Holding. Following the completion of the Arrangement and the exchange of the Employee Rollover Shares for common shares of Stile Holding, Masonite will be a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Stile and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Stile Consolidated and Stile Holding.

     Concurrently with the filing of Amendment No. 3, Masonite filed with the Ontario Securities Commission a notice of application and notice and management proxy circular (the “Circular”) relating to the special meeting of Masonite shareholders to consider and vote on a resolution approving the Arrangement. The Circular is attached as Exhibit (a)(5) to this Schedule 13E-3. The information in the Circular, including all appendices thereto, is hereby expressly incorporated by reference into this Amended Schedule 13E-3, and the responses to each item are qualified in their entirety by the provisions of the Circular and the appendices thereto. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amended Schedule 13E-3 shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Circular.

     The information contained in this Amended Schedule 13E-3 and/or the Circular concerning Masonite was supplied by Masonite. Similarly, the information contained in this Amended Schedule 13E-3 and/or the Circular concerning each filing person other than Masonite was supplied by each such filing person.

     The Stile Affiliates do not believe that they are affiliates of Masonite at this time and, thus, believe they are not required to file this Amended Schedule 13E-3. They have filed this Amended Schedule 13E-3 solely in light of their relationship with the Management Investors and the fact that they have noticed that in several instances involving similar transactions, persons similarly situated to them have filed a Schedule 13E-3.

     The information set forth in the Circular under the caption “Background to and Fairness of the Arrangement – Opinion of Merrill Lynch” is hereby amended and supplemented by deleting the last paragraph on page 23 of the Circular in its entirety and inserting in place thereof the following paragraph:

     On February 17, 2005 Merrill Lynch delivered to the Special Committee an oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing as of the same date, that, as of that date, and based upon and subject to the various factors, assumptions and limitations set forth in the Merrill Opinion, the consideration of C$42.25 per Common Share to be received by the Shareholders pursuant to the Arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Shareholders other than Senior Management. In connection with its February 17, 2005 opinion, Merrill Lynch reviewed the assumptions used in, and the appropriateness of its reliance on, the analyses used to render its earlier opinion on December 22, 2004, as well as the factors considered in connection with its earlier opinion. Merrill Lynch also performed procedures to update certain of its analyses to give effect to updated market prices and analysts’ estimates, Masonite’s December 31, 2004 actual results and the increased consideration to be received by the Shareholders. Except as specifically noted in this section, Merrill Lynch applied the same methodologies and performed the same procedures and analyses as it did in connection with rendering its earlier opinion on December 22, 2004.

     As a result, the following description of the Merrill Opinion and analyses is substantially the same as the description of the earlier opinion rendered on December 22, 2004 and the analyses performed in connection therewith, except for the following differences:

  •   the opinion rendered on December 22, 2004 was directed to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the Shareholders, while the opinion rendered on February 17, 2005 was directed to the fairness of the consideration, from a financial point of view, to the Shareholders other than Senior Management;
 
  •   in arriving at its December 22, 2004 opinion, Merrill Lynch reviewed a draft dated December 22, 2004 of the Combination Agreement, while in arriving at its February 17, 2005 opinion, Merrill Lynch reviewed a draft dated February 17, 2005;

  •   in the comparable public companies analysis:

  •   in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the December 22, 2004 opinion, Merrill Lynch utilized the closing stock price for each comparable company on December 21, 2004 and its calendar year 2005 consensus earnings per share estimates as reported by First Call Corporation as of December 21, 2004, while in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the February 17, 2005 opinion, the reference date in both instances was February 17, 2005;

11


 

  •   in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the December 22, 2004 opinion, Merrill Lynch calculated implied equity values per Common Share by applying LTM EBITDA multiples to Masonite’s latest 12-month EBITDA for the period ending September 30, 2004, and by applying 2005 P/ E multiples to Masonite’s 2005 earnings per share, as reported by First Call Corporation as of December 21, 2004, which resulted in applying 2005 P/ E multiples ranging from 9.5x to 11.5x, while in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the February 17, 2005 opinion, the LTM EBITDA multiples were applied to Masonite’s latest 12-month EBITDA for the period ending December 31, 2004, and the 2005 P/ E multiples were applied to Masonite’s 2005 earnings per share, as reported by First Call Corporation as of February 17, 2005, which resulted in applying 2005 P/ E multiples ranging from 10.0x to 12.0x; and

  •   in the comparable transaction analysis:

  •   in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the December 22, 2004 opinion, Merrill Lynch did not review the Investcorp/Associated Material Incorporated transaction, announced in December 2004, which was added to the list of comparable transactions reviewed in connection with rendering the February 17, 2005 opinion;

  •   in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the December 22, 2004 opinion, Merrill Lynch calculated implied equity values per Common Share by applying LTM EBITDA multiples and forward P/ E multiples to Masonite’s latest 12-month EBITDA for the period ending September 30, 2004, and estimated 2005 earnings per Common Share, as reported by First Call Corporation as of December 21, 2004, respectively, while in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the February 17, 2005 opinion, Merrill Lynch applied these multiples to Masonite’s latest 12-month EBITDA for the period ending December 31, 2004 and estimated 2005 earnings per Common Share, as reported by First Call Corporation as of February 17, 2005, respectively; and
 
  •   in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the December 22, 2004 opinion, the ranges of implied equity value per Common Share, as compared with the consideration of C$40.20 per Common Share, were LTM EBITDA of C$26.00 to C$37.93 and Forward P/E of C$36.65 to C$43.31, while in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the February 17, 2005 opinion, the ranges of implied equity value per Common Share, as compared with the consideration of C$42.25 per Common Share, were LTM EBITDA of C$28.72 to C$41.39 and Forward P/E of C$37.21 to C$43.97.

  •   in the discounted cash flow analysis performed in connection with rendering the December 22, 2004 opinion, the ranges of implied equity value per Common Share, as compared with the consideration of C$40.20 per Common Share, were C$37.56 to C$49.99 using the EBITDA multiple method and C$30.91 to C$55.77 using the Perpetuity growth rate method, while in the analysis performed in connection with rendering the February 17, 2005 opinion, the ranges of implied equity value per Common Share, as compared with the consideration of C$42.25 per Common Share, were C$38.15 to C$50.56 using the EBITDA multiple method and C$31.52 to C$56.33 using the Perpetuity growth rate method, and Merrill Lynch took into account Masonite’s December 31, 2004 actual results; and
 
  •   in the leveraged buyout analysis performed in connection with rendering the February 17, 2005 opinion, Merrill Lynch took into account Masonite’s December 31, 2004 actual results.
