ITEM 1.01 AMENDMENTS TO THE STOCK PLAN AND TRUST AGREEMENT.

On September 29, 2006, the Board of Directors of North American Galvanizing &
Coatings, Inc. approved an amendment to the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan. The
amendment requires equitable adjustments to share-based awards under the plan in
the event of a merger, acquisition or other event that results in an adjustment
to the number or kind of company shares outstanding. These award adjustments
were formerly permitted but not required. The Board of Directors also approved
an amendment to the "rabbi trust" that was previously formed to ensure the
payment of benefits under the company's Director Stock Unit Program. The
amendment names the United States Trust Company National Association as the
trustee, replacing the current trustees. A complete copy of the amended 2004
Incentive Stock Plan will be filed with the quarterly report dated September 30,
2006.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
