Marketing Presentation\Project Echo Marketing Materials - v74.pptx Associated Materials – Confidential Material 1 Forward-Looking Statements Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements All statements (other than statements of historical facts) included in this document regarding the prospects of the industry and our prospects, plans, financial position and business strategy may constitute forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, there cannot be assurance that these expectations will prove to be correct. Such statements reflect the current views of our management with respect to our operations, results of operations and future financial performance. The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements: declines in remodeling and home building industries, economic conditions and changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and other conditions; deteriorations in availability of consumer credit, employment trends, levels of consumer confidence and spending and consumer preferences; increases in competition from other manufacturers of vinyl and metal exterior residential building products as well as alternative building products; our substantial fixed costs; delays in the development of new or improved products or our inability to successfully develop new or improved products; changes in raw material costs and availability of raw materials and finished goods; consolidation of our customers; our substantial level of indebtedness; increases in union organizing activity; our ability to continuously improve organizational productivity and global supply chain efficiency and flexibility; changes in weather conditions; our history of operating losses; limitations on our NOLs and payments under the tax receivable agreement to our current stockholders; our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; increases in our indebtedness; our ability to comply with certain financial covenants in the Indenture and ABL facilities and the restrictions such indentures impose on our ability to operate our business; any impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets; future recognition of our deferred tax assets; increases in mortgage rates, changes in mortgage interest deductions and the reduced availability of financing; our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk; our control by the H&F Investors; and the other factors discussed under the “Risk Factors” in our 2015 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 22, 2016 (our “Annual Report”). All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this document. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this document. We do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless the securities laws require us to do so. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures We have included non-GAAP financial measures in this document, including, for example, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, that may not comply with the SEC rules governing the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures. For example, some of the adjustments to EBITDA that comprise Adjusted EBITDA as included in this document may not be permitted under the SEC’s rules. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations” and “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Covenant Compliance” in our Annual Report for a description of the calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as well as a presentation of net loss as calculated under GAAP and a reconciliation to our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Our measurements of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are based on definitions of EBITDA included in our debt agreements and may not be comparable to those of other companies.

See Appendix for a reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA.  Began 2014 with the Company’s most significant product launch in history – Mezzo / Fusion window platform, representing approximately 50% of the Company’s annual window units sold  Launch was commercially successful but caused significant operational issues  New management brought in to stabilize the operations and drive change • CEO Brian Strauss (former CEO of Henry Group and Tyco plastics) joined in May 2014 • Hired Bill Topper (former SVP of Operations at Goodman Global) as EVP of Operations in July 2014 • Hired new EVP and CFO, Scott Stephens (former CFO of AM Castle and Lawson Products), in October 2014  Back half of 2014 priorities: • Built out operations and remainder of broader management team • Met demand for the new window platform and restored customer service levels during the busy selling season – at significant cost to the business • Positioned the operations to take cost out of the platform in 2015 during the slow winter selling season • Restored top-line growth  However, the financial performance suffered as a result of the incremental costs of the product launch, in addition to raw material cost increases and foreign exchange • Revenue up 1.5% (Windows + 8.6%) but Adjusted EBITDA¹ down from $109.4mm in 2013 to $58.6mm in 2014
