9. 8 Large and Attractive Market U.S. roofing materials market 2007 Total = $13.7bn * Source: The Freedonia Group – April 2008 *represents sales by manufacturers $13.7 billion industry in the U.S. with a projected growth rate of 2.6% annually through 2012 Re-roofing (vs. new construction) accounts for approximately 70% of roofing expenditures In 2007 re-roofing made up approximately 77% and 78% of residential and non-residential demand, respectively Roofing demand has grown every year since 1993 Grown through four years of declining building construction expenditures (1995, 2001, 2002, 2007) Almost two-thirds of the U.S. housing stock was built prior to 1980, with a median age of 30 years Overview Non-residential 38% Residential 62% Roofing market is somewhat insulated from swings in the overall building cycle

10. 9 Re-Roofing Concentration Drives Stable Growth Roofing Demand Compared to Interest Rates  Total roofing demand is very stable  Installed base of existing homes and commercial buildings is large and growing  Re-roofing is not a luxury expenditure, and it is not discretionary  There is virtually no correlation between interest rates and demand for roofing Source: Global Industry Analysts

11. 10 Re-Roofing Concentration Drives Stable Growth Construction Spending Growth by Category Source: Global Industry Analysts  Residential new construction activity has been volatile  Commercial new construction is also volatile and closely follows economic cycles  Demand for roofing, due to the large installed base of aging structures, remains very stable and consistent despite the construction cycles
