##### 



The Companys substantial level of indebtedness could adversely affect its financial
condition.
   
    
    the Companys ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital
expenditures, acquisitions or general corporate purposes may be impaired;
    
    the Company must use a substantial portion of its cash flow from operations to pay
interest and principal on the notes and other indebtedness, which will reduce the funds
available to the Company for other purposes such as potential acquisitions and capital
expenditures;
    
    the Company is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, because the credit facility
has a variable rate of interest;
    
    the Company has a higher level of indebtedness than some of its competitors, which may
put it at a competitive disadvantage and reduce the Companys flexibility in planning for,
or responding to, changing industry conditions, including increased competition;
    
    the Company is more vulnerable to general economic downturns and adverse developments in
its business; and
    
    the Companys failure to comply with financial and other restrictive covenants in the
credit facility, in the indentures governing the $165 million of 9 3/4% senior subordinated
notes due 2012 (9 3/4% notes), the 11 1/4% notes and other debt obligations, some of
which require the Company to maintain specified financial ratios and limit the Companys
ability to incur additional debt and sell assets, could result in an event of default that,
if not cured or waived, could harm the Companys business or prospects and could result in
bankruptcy.
   10




---



##### 



If AMH II defaults on its debt obligations, it could result in a change in control.
   The Company will be able to incur more indebtedness and the risks associated with its
substantial leverage, including its ability to service its indebtedness, will increase.
  The right to receive payments on the 9 3/4% notes and guarantees is subordinated to the AMIs
senior debt.
  11




---



##### 



The indentures for the 9 3/4% notes and the 11 1/4% notes and AMIs credit facility impose
significant operating and financial restrictions on the Company, which may prevent it from
capitalizing on business opportunities and taking some corporate actions.
  
    
    incur or guarantee additional indebtedness;
    
    pay dividends or make other distributions;
    
    repurchase stock;
    
    make investments;
    
    sell or otherwise dispose of assets including capital stock of subsidiaries;
    
    create liens;
    
    enter into agreements restricting the Companys subsidiaries ability to pay dividends;
    
    enter into transactions with affiliates; and
    
    consolidate, merge or sell all of its assets.
   AMH is the sole obligor under the 11 1/4% notes. Its subsidiaries, including AMI, do not
guarantee AMHs obligations under the 11 1/4% notes and do not have any obligation with respect to
the 11 1/4% notes. The 11 1/4% notes are structurally subordinated to the debt and liabilities of
AMHs subsidiaries, including AMI, and are effectively subordinated to any of the Companys
existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets secured by such debt.
   12




---



##### 



All of AMHs assets are owned, and all net sales are generated, by its subsidiaries. The
ability to repay the 11 1/4% notes depends on the performance of its subsidiaries. AMH may not have
access to the cash flow and other assets of its subsidiaries that may be needed to make payments on
the 11 1/4% notes.
   The exterior building products industry is cyclical and downturns in the industry or the
economy could negatively affect the Companys operating results.
  The Company has substantial fixed costs and, as a result, operating income is sensitive to
changes in net sales.
  Changes in raw material costs and availability can adversely affect our profit margins.
  13




---



##### 



The Company could face potential product liability claims relating to products it manufactures
or distributes.
  The Company has significant goodwill and other intangible assets.
  The Company is controlled by affiliates of Investcorp S.A. and Harvest Partners, Inc., whose
interests may be different than other investors.
  The Company may have inadequate warranty reserves.
  The Company is subject to various environmental statutes and regulations, which may result in
significant costs.

exercise, in exchange for an equivalent number and class of shares of AMH II. For additional
information about the 2002 Plan, see Item 11. Executive Compensation  Compensation and

    EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) plus interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items. The Company considers adjusted EBITDA
to be an important indicator of its operational strength and performance of its business. The
Company has included adjusted EBITDA because it is a key financial measure used by management
to (i) assess the Companys ability to service its debt and / or incur debt and meet the
Companys capital expenditure requirements; (ii) internally measure the Companys operating
performance; and (iii) determine the Companys incentive compensation programs. In addition,
AMIs credit facility has certain covenants that use ratios utilizing this measure of adjusted
EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA has not been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Adjusted EBITDA as presented by the Company
may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance
with 24

(as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Companys operating results or cash
flows from operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Companys
liquidity. The reconciliation of the Companys net income (loss) to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA

    Represents principal amounts, but not interest. See Note 12 to the consolidated financial
statements.(2)
    
    The Companys long-term debt consists of the second amended and restated credit facility, the
9 3/4% notes and the 11 1/4% notes.(3)
    
    Future interest payments on the Companys term loan were calculated assuming no principal
payments until the required quarterly principal payments that begin in December 2009. The
interest rate used for the calculation was 7.05%, calculated as the weighted average interest
rate of the outstanding borrowings at December 31, 2005 plus a margin of 2.50%, which
represents the required margin based on the February 2006 amendment to the credit facility.(4)
    
    Represents the minimum purchase obligation under inventory contracts.(5)
    
    For additional information on the Companys operating leases, see Note 13 to the consolidated
financial statements.  33

    Bonuses paid include annual bonuses paid in connection with AMIs Incentive Bonus Plan and
bonuses paid in connection with the March 2004 dividend recapitalization and the December 2004
recapitalization transaction. Bonuses paid in connection with the March 2004 dividend
recapitalization were paid in recognition of the successful acquisition of Gentek, AMIs
performance since the April 2002 merger transaction and the completion of the 11 1/4% senior
notes offering. The bonuses paid in connection with the December 2004 recapitalization
transaction were paid in recognition of the Companys performance for 2004 and the completion
of the related transaction.(2)
    
    Perquisites and other personal benefits received by AMIs executive officers are not included
in the Summary Compensation Table because the aggregate amount of this compensation, if any,
did not meet disclosure thresholds established under current SEC regulations.(3)
    
    Options granted through March 2004 were granted in accordance with the 2002 Plan. All such
options granted under the 2002 Plan were granted prior to the March 2004 dividend
recapitalization. The options granted include the following: 
    
    Options to purchase shares of Holdings common stock at the fair market value on the
date of grant, which will vest over time (Time-Based Options). All Time-Based Options
granted to executives during September 2002 were immediately vested 16% on the date of
grant, representing 10% vesting upon grant plus four months of vesting from May 2002
through August 2002, with remaining vesting of 1.5% per
month over 56 months. Options granted during February 2004 were immediately vested 11.5%
on the

date of grant, representing 10% vesting upon grant plus one month vesting from
January 2004 to February 2004, with remaining vesting of 1.5% per month over 59 months;
    
    Options to purchase shares of Holdings common stock at the fair market value on the
date of grant, which will vest 100% on the eighth anniversary from the date of grant,
provided that the option vesting may be accelerated upon the occurrence of a liquidity
event and the achievement of a specified internal rate of return (IRR) on the
investment by Harvest Partners in Holdings (IRR Options). A liquidity event is defined
as the occurrence of (a) a transaction or series of transactions which results in the
sale or transfer of (i) more than a majority of the assets of Holdings and its
subsidiaries or (ii) a majority of the capital stock of Holdings or a widely distributed
sale of the common stock of Holdings in an underwritten public offering which yields a
minimum required amount of net proceeds to Holdings and (b) the funds of Harvest Partners
receive a minimum required aggregate net cash proceeds for its investment in Holdings
(2002 Plan Liquidity Event);
    
    Options to purchase shares of Holdings common stock and preferred stock as a unit,
comprised of one share of preferred stock and a specified fraction of a share of common
stock (Roll-Over Options). These options were granted in exchange for the outstanding
options to purchase Associated Materials Incorporated common stock (Predecessor Company
Options). Roll-Over Options were granted at an exercise price, which preserves the
intrinsic value of the Predecessor Company Options. Each Roll-Over Option grant was 100%
vested as of the date of grant.
 In connection with the March 2004 dividend recapitalization, all Roll-Over Options were
exercised for shares of Holdings preferred and common stock, which were then contributed to
AMH for equivalent shares of AMH stock. The shares of AMH preferred stock were redeemed
through proceeds from the AMH senior note offering. AMH assumed the 2002 Plan and all
outstanding Time-Based Options and IRR Options under the 2002 Plan were converted from the
right to purchase shares of Holdings common stock into the right to purchase shares of AMH
common stock with each option providing for the same number of shares at the same exercise
price as the original options.As part of the December 2004 recapitalization transaction, a portion of the Time-Based
Options and all of the IRR Options were exercised for shares of AMH common stock. Pursuant to
an amended and restated certificate of incorporation of AMH filed in connection with the
December 2004 recapitalization transaction, each share of AMH common stock issued upon the
exercise of such options was then reclassified as two shares of non-voting preferred stock of
AMH and then immediately sold to affiliates of Investcorp. In order to preserve the economic
value of the options that remain outstanding under the 2002 Plan, the 2002 Plan was then
amended by resolution of the Board of Directors of AMH to provide that each of the Time-Based
Options that remain outstanding following the consummation of the December 2004
recapitalization transaction are henceforward exercisable for two shares of Class B non-voting
common stock of AMH. In addition, each holder of such options entered into an agreement with
AMH II whereby such option holders agreed, upon the exercise of any such options under the
2002 Plan, to automatically contribute to AMH II the shares of Class B non-voting common stock
of AMH issued upon any such option exercise, in exchange for an equivalent number of shares of
Class B non-voting common stock of AMH II. All option grants for common stock under the 2002
Plan shown in the tables herein have been restated in order to reflect the number of
securities underlying such options after giving effect to the reclassification and the
amendment to the 2002 Plan described above.Options granted in conjunction with the December 2004 recapitalization transaction and in
2005 were granted under the 2004 Plan. The option grants are for options to purchase shares of
AMH II Class B non-voting common stock at the fair market value on the date of grant, which
will vest 100% on the eighth anniversary from the date of grant, provided that the option
vesting may be accelerated upon the occurrence of a liquidity event and the achievement of a
specified internal rate of return on the investment by Investcorp in AMH II. A liquidity event
is defined as the occurrence of (a) a transaction or series of transactions which results in
the sale or transfer of (i) more than a majority of the assets of AMH II and its subsidiaries
or (ii) a majority of the capital stock of AMH II or (b) a widely distributed sale of the
common stock of AMH II in an underwritten public offering which yields a minimum required
amount of net proceeds to AMH II (2004 Plan Liquidity Event).(4)

    The bonus amount shown includes $120,000 of annual bonus from the Incentive Bonus Plan,
$750,000 of bonus paid in connection with the March 2004 dividend recapitalization and

    The bonus amount shown includes $210,000 of annual bonus from the Incentive Bonus Plan,
$2,000,000 of bonus paid in connection with the March 2004 dividend recapitalization and

    In December 2004, in accordance with the 2004 Plan, Mr. Caporale was granted an option to
purchase 176,168 shares of AMH II Class B non-voting common stock.(13)
    
    In December 2004, in accordance with the 2004 Plan, Mr. LaVanway was granted an option to
purchase 86,910 shares of AMH II Class B non-voting common stock.(14)
    
    In December 2004, in accordance with the 2004 Plan, Mr. Franco was granted an option to
purchase 58,723 shares of AMH II Class B non-voting common stock.(15)
    
    In December 2004, in accordance with the 2004 Plan, Mr. Haumesser was granted an option to
purchase 23,489 shares of AMH II Class B non-voting common stock.(16)
    
    In February 2004, Mr. Haumesser was granted an option to purchase 10,627 shares of Holdings
common stock. In conjunction with the December 2004 recapitalization transaction, all of the
IRR Options and a portion of the Time-Based Options were exercised, with the remaining
Time-Based options to purchase common stock of Holdings being converted into options to
purchase shares of AMH Class B non-voting stock, which, upon exercise, will be contributed to
AMH II in exchange for an equivalent number of shares of Class B non-voting common stock of
AMH II. In recognition of the dilutive effect of the December 2004 recapitalization
transaction, the option grants presented have been restated to reflect that shares underlying
each original option grant to purchase one common share of Holdings is now the equivalent of
an option grant to purchase two shares of AMH common stock. As such Mr. Haumessers options
represent a grant to purchase 21,254 shares of AMH Class B non-voting stock, which is
comprised of the following (restated to reflect the impact of the dilutive effect):
 
    
    Time-Based Options granted with the option to purchase 13,284 shares of AMH common
stock at $33.09 per share;
    
    IRR Options granted with the option to purchase 7,970 shares of AMH common stock at
$33.09 per share.
