On December 1, 2015, R. S. Evans and E. Thayer Bigelow resigned from the Board of Directors of Huttig Building Products Inc. Mr. Evans had announced on February 27, 2015, that he would resign from the Board effective immediately following Huttig's April 2016 Annual Meeting after over 40 years of service on the Board. On December 2, 2015, Mr. Richard S. Fort also resigned from the Board. The resignations resulted from a potential conflict of interest which has arisen between Huttig and its former parent, Crane Co.

from which Huttig was spun-off in December 1999.
