## Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
***Leadership Transition***

On February 24, 2026, the Board of Directors (the "**Board**") of Trex Company, Inc. (the "**Company**") approved the following changes, each of which will take place effective as of April 28, 2026:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Bryan H. Fairbanks will resign from his position as the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer and as a director of the Board further to Mr. Fairbanks' notice to the Board of his intention to so resign;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Adam D. Zambanini, age 49, currently the Company's Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, will succeed Mr. Fairbanks as President and Chief Executive Officer and will become a director of the Board; and

With the resignation of Mr. Fairbanks and the addition of Mr. Zambanini, the Board will continue to be comprised of ten members. Mr. Zambanini will join the Board on April 28, 2026 and his initial term as a director will expire at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2027.

Mr. Fairbank's decision to resign is not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies, or practices.

Mr. Zambanini has served as our Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer since October 25, 2023. He previously served as President of Trex Residential Products between July 2018 and October 2023. Mr. Zambanini served as Vice President, Marketing between January 2011 and July 2018, and he served in a number of other roles at the Company between September 2005 and December 2010.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Fairbanks or Mr. Zambanini and any other persons pursuant to which either of them was appointed as an officer or director of the Company (other than arrangements or understandings with directors or officers of the Company acting solely in their capacities as such). There are also no family relationships between Mr. Fairbanks or Mr. Zambanini and any director or executive officer of the Company, and neither of them is party to or has any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

***Changes to Compensatory Arrangements***

In connection with these leadership changes, the Board also approved the following changes to Mr. Zambanini's compensation, to be effective as of April 28, 2026:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•An increase in Mr. Zambanini's annual salary to $900,000;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•An increase in Mr. Zambanini's target award under the Company's Annual Incentive Plan to 110% of his base salary, prorated for the period of time that he spent in each role during 2026;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•An increase in Mr. Zambanini's target award under the Company's Amended and Restated 2023 Stock Incentive Plan to 450% of his base salary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The existing Change-in-Control Severance Agreement to which Mr. Zambanini is currently a party will be amended to include terms substantially similar to the Change-in-Control Severance Agreement between the Company and Mr. Fairbanks, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2022 filed on February 27, 2023 and the material terms of which were summarized in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 25, 2020;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The existing Severance Agreement to which Mr. Zambanini is currently a party will be amended to include terms substantially similar to the Amended and Restated Severance Agreement between the Company and Mr. Fairbanks, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on August 4, 2025 and the material terms of which were summarized therein; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Car allowance increased from $9,000 annually to $12,000 annually

As a non-independent member of the Board, Mr. Zambanini will not receive separate compensation for his service as a director.

***Fairbanks Transition Agreement***

With respect to Mr. Fairbanks, the Board approved the following:

Given the Company's desire to retain the benefit of Mr. Fairbanks' knowledge and experience for a transition period, on February 24, 2026, the Company entered into a Transition Agreement with Mr. Fairbanks whereby he will continue in his current role and actively support a smooth transition of responsibilities to Mr. Zambanini, the Company's successor President and Chief Executive

------

Officer, until Mr. Zambanini assumes this role on April 28, 2026. Mr. Fairbanks will continue to report to the Board through April 27, 2026, unless terminated sooner (the "**Separation Date**"). The Company also has offered to retain Mr. Fairbanks as a consultant to the Company for a period of up to 12 months, commencing on the Separation Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Consulting Agreement.

*Transition Period and Separation*

From February 24, 2026 through April 27, 2026 (the "**Transition Period**"), Mr. Fairbanks will continue to receive his salary and remain eligible for the Company's standard benefits, and he will remain eligible to receive his annual bonus earned under the Company's annual bonus plan in respect of 2025 (the "**2025 *Bonus Plan***"), with such bonus to be paid in March 2026 at the time such bonuses are ordinarily paid to participants under the terms of the 2025 Bonus Plan. During the Transition Period, Mr. Fairbanks will continue to vest in his outstanding equity awards under the Trex Company, Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan and the Trex Company, Inc. Amended and Restated 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (together, the "***Plans***"). He will not be entitled to receive any annual bonus under the Company's annual bonus plan for 2026 or any other awards under the Plans or under the Company's other incentive programs.

On the Separation Date, provided that Mr. Fairbanks timely executes, delivers, and does not revoke a release, he will be eligible for subsidized COBRA benefits at the same premium costs as apply to active employees enrolled for the same coverage through December 31, 2026, and subsidized financial consulting services at the same rates provided by the Company prior to the Separation Date through the termination date of the Consulting Agreement.

*Consulting Period*

On the Separation Date, if Mr. Fairbanks enters into the Consulting Agreement, he will agree to be available to provide expert advice and services to the Company at the reasonable request of the Company's then serving President and Chief Executive Officer (the "**Services**"). Unless the arrangement is sooner terminated by either party, Mr. Fairbanks will perform the Services until April 30, 2027 (the "**Consulting Term**").

As full compensation for the Services, and provided that Mr. Fairbanks timely executes, delivers, and does not revoke a release, the Company will provide Mr. Fairbanks with cash compensation in the amount of sixteen thousand six hundred sixty six dollars ($16,666.00) per each full month during the Consulting Term, prorated for any partial month during the Consulting Term, and during the Consulting Term, Mr. Fairbanks will continue to vest in the portion of any outstanding equity awards under the Plans that Mr. Fairbanks holds as of the Separation Date (each such award an "***Equity Award***"), to the extent such Equity Awards are scheduled to vest during the Consulting Term. Additionally, at the end of the Consulting Term, all vested stock appreciation rights held by Mr. Fairbanks will retain their original expiration date. Any portion of any Equity Award that is unvested as of the end of the Consulting Term will be forfeited as of the end of the Consulting Term.

The foregoing description of the Transition Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Transition Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

## Exhibit 10.1

**Exhibit 10.1**

**February 24, 2026**

Bryan H. Fairbanks<br>Chief Executive Officer

**Re: Transition Agreement – Retirement from Trex Company, Inc.**

Dear Bryan:

As you know, you resigned from your position as President and Chief Executive Officer of Trex Company, Inc. (the "***Company***") and all other positions you hold with the Company for purposes of retirement. We greatly appreciate your 22 years of service to the Company. This transition agreement (this "***Agreement***") sets forth details about your transition and resignation from the Company. It will become effective as of the Effective Date (as defined below). You and the Company (collectively, the "**Parties**") agree that this Agreement represents the full and complete understanding and agreement concerning your separation from employment.

1.**Separation Date and Transition Period.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.In accordance with the written notification of retirement that you provided to the Company on February 24, 2026 (the "***Transition Date****"*), your last day of employment with the Company will be April 28, 2026 (the "***Separation Date***"). The period beginning on the Transition Date and ending on the Separation Date is referred to herein as the "***Transition Period***."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.During the Transition Period, you will continue as the President and Chief Executive Officer reporting to the Board of Directors of the Company and will actively support a smooth transition of responsibilities to the Company's successor President and Chief Executive Officer. Through your Separation Date, you must continue to comply with all of the Company's policies and procedures and with all of your statutory and contractual obligations to the Company, including, without limitation, your obligations under your agreement with the Company, dated June 2, 2017 (your "***EA*"**).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c.During the Transition Period, you will continue to be an employee of the Company. This means that (i) you will continue to receive your salary; (ii) you will remain eligible to receive your annual bonus earned under the Company's annual bonus plan in respect of 2025 (the "**2025 *Bonus Plan***")<sup>1</sup> paid at the time such bonuses are ordinarily paid to participants under the terms of the 2025 Bonus Plan in March 2026; (iii) you will remain eligible for the Company's standard benefits, subject to their terms and conditions; and (iv) you will continue to be an "employee" under the Trex Company, Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan and the Trex Company, Inc. Amended and Restated 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (together, the "***Plans***") such that your outstanding equity awards will continue to vest. You will not be entitled to receive any annual bonus under the Company's annual bonus plan in respect of 2026. Following the Transition Date, you will not be entitled to receive any other awards under the Plans or under the Company's other incentive programs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d.As of the Separation Date, (i) you acknowledge and agree that your resignation from any and all employment, officer, director and committee positions with the Company, and

------

<sup>1</sup> Any bonus is payable at the Company's sole discretion based upon both Company and individual performance. Your eligibility and compensation under this Bonus Plan will be governed under the terms of the Bonus Plan and applicable Company policy, as established from time to time.

DOCPROPERTY DOCXDOCID DMS=IManage Format=VP/#<>.<> \\* MERGEFORMAT VP/#75176577.3

------

from any other roles or positions as may be requested by the Company, shall be effective without any further action required by the Company, in each case, consistent with the terms of this Agreement or as otherwise agreed upon by you and the Company, (ii) you agree to sign any such documents as reasonably requested by the Company to document such resignation(s) and (iii) you agree not to represent yourself as being an officer, director, executive or authorized agent of the Company following the Separation Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e.You acknowledge that you are voluntarily resigning from your employment and all other positions that you hold with the Company. You further acknowledge that the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the cessation of your employment shall not constitute grounds for a Good Reason termination (as defined in the Plans) and that you shall not be entitled to the benefits set forth in the Plans except as expressly set forth herein. Nothing in this Agreement alters your employment at will status. Accordingly, prior to the Separation Date you are entitled to resign your employment at any time for any reason, and the Company may terminate your employment with or without Cause (as defined below) or advance notice.

2.**Payments and Benefits.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.**Accrued Wages.** Regardless of whether you sign this Agreement, on the first normal payroll date following the Separation Date, the Company will pay you all accrued wages, vacation pay (if applicable), and other compensation earned through the Separation Date that has not yet been paid to you, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. You are entitled to these payments by law. The Separation Date is your employment termination date for all purposes, meaning you are not entitled to any further compensation, monies, or other benefits from the Company following the Separation Date, except as set forth in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.**Health Insurance**. Your existing health benefits through the Company will terminate at the end of the month in which the Separation Date occurs. To the extent provided by COBRA, or if applicable, state insurance laws, and the Company's current group health insurance policy, you are eligible to continue coverage under the Company health plan. You will be provided separate notice from our third-party vendor describing your rights and obligations under COBRA. If you choose to enroll in COBRA, it is your responsibility to complete and return the enrollment application by the due date noted in the paperwork sent by our third-party vendor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c.**Expense Reimbursements.** You agree that, by the close of business on the tenth (10<sup>th</sup>) business day after the Separation Date, you will submit your final documented expense reimbursement statement reflecting all business expenses you incurred through the Separation Date, if any, for which you seek reimbursement. The Company will reimburse you for these expenses pursuant to Company policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d.**No Other Compensation or Benefits**. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the Consulting Agreement (as defined below), you have not earned and will not receive from the Company any additional compensation (including bonus, incentive compensation, or equity), severance, or benefits before or after the Separation Date, with the exception of any vested right you may have under the express terms of a written ERISA-qualified benefit plan (e.g., 401(k) account). For the avoidance of doubt, you agree and acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in Section 4, you are not entitled to any benefits under your Amended and Restated Severance Agreement with the Company, dated July 31, 2025 (the "**Severance Agreement**") and your Change in Control Agreement with the Company dated February 21, 2020.

------

3.**Consideration**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.**Consulting Agreement.** Subject to Section 4 (Early Termination) below, and provided that this Agreement becomes effective in accordance with Section 13, you comply at all times with this Agreement, and you enter into the consulting agreement attached hereto as **Exhibit A** (the "***Consulting Agreement***") prior to or on your Separation Date, then you will be appointed to serve as a consultant to the Company and receive the Consulting Fee (as defined in the Consulting Agreement) on the terms and conditions set forth in the Consulting Agreement. You and the Company acknowledge and agree that the Consulting Agreement will be effective on the Separation Date, such that you do not have a break between your employee status and your status as a "Service Provider" under the Plans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.**Additional Consideration**. Subject to you fulfilling your obligations hereunder and the conditions set forth herein, your timely execution, delivery and non-revocation of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13, you fulfilling your obligations under the Consulting Agreement, and your timely execution, delivery and non-revocation of the Supplemental Release of Claims attached as **Annex I** to the Consulting Agreement (the "***Supplemental Release***"), you shall be entitled to the continued employment, payments, benefits and other good and valuable consideration set forth in Section 1 above in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and you shall be entitled to receive the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i.**Health Benefits Plan Coverage**: Your health insurance benefits under the Company's group health plan will end April 30, 2026. If you elect continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reorganization Act of 1985 ("***COBRA***"), then the Company will subsidize continuation of Company health insurance benefits from May 1, 2026 through and including December 31, 2026 (after such election of COBRA by you) at the same rates and levels in accordance with the terms of such plans, including the same terms with respect to sharing of premium costs as apply to active employees enrolled for the same coverage, provided that you are eligible and remain eligible for COBRA during this time period and you do not become eligible for coverage under one or more plans sponsored by a new employer. After December 31, 2026 when the period of subsidized continuation coverage ends, provided that you remain eligible pursuant to COBRA, you may continue group health insurance benefits at your own expense and must timely make all required premium payments (as applicable). The Company shall provide you with notice concerning your rights under COBRA. You understand that, regardless of whether you continue to receive health benefits, your coverage under any Company retirement or other employee benefit plan (and any salary deduction contribution or employer contribution related thereto) ceases as of the Separation Date. The value of your COBRA premiums paid by the Company will be subject to any applicable tax withholding. The Company shall not be obligated to "gross up" or otherwise compensate you for any taxes due on amounts paid pursuant to this Section 3(b)(i).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii.**Financial Consulting**. Financial consulting services provided to you by Goldman-Sachs Ayco, subsidized by the Company, will end on the Separation Date. If you elect to continue to receive financial consulting services following the Separation Date, then the Company will fully subsidize continuation of such financial consulting services at the same rates and levels from April 28, 2026 through the termination date of the Consulting Agreement.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iii.Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no payments or benefits shall be paid to you pursuant to this Section 3(b) unless this Agreement has become fully effective and irrevocable in accordance with its terms, and no payments or benefits shall be deemed fully earned unless this Agreement and the Supplemental Release have each become fully effective and irrevocable in accordance with their terms. To the extent the Company has previously paid or provided you any benefits pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement prior to the Supplemental Release becoming fully effective and irrevocable in accordance with its terms, you agree to repay the Company an amount in cash equal to the value of such benefits, less $1,000, within 30 days following the Company's demand for repayment. For clarity, the terms of this Agreement, including (without limitation) the release of claims set forth in Section 5, shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. The Company shall not be obligated to "gross up" or otherwise compensate Employee for any taxes due on amounts paid pursuant to this Section 3(b).

4.**Early Termination.** If, before the Separation Date your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (defined in the Severance Agreement) then you will be entitled to the terms of the Severance Agreement and will not be entitled to receive the payments and benefits under this Agreement or the Consulting Agreement. If, before the Separation Date you resign and have not engaged in activity that constitutes Cause, then you will continue to be eligible to enter into the Consulting Agreement on your last day of employment. If the Company terminates your employment for Cause or if you resign following activity that constitutes Cause, then, at the Company's election, the offer for you to serve as a consultant and enter into the Consulting Agreement will be terminated and the Consulting Agreement will be null and void and no aspect of the Consulting Agreement will be binding on either Party, and no benefits will be due to Consultant under the Consulting Agreement.

5.**Waiver and Release.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.You, on behalf of yourself and your heirs, successors, administrators and assigns, hereby unconditionally release and forever discharge the Company, its parents and subsidiaries, and each of its and their respective past, present and future affiliated companies, predecessors, successors and assigns, and each of their past, present and future partners, officers, directors, managers, agents, representatives, attorneys, employees, plan administrators, insurers and trustees (hereinafter collectively referred to as "***Company Released Partie*s**"), from any and all claims, causes of action, debts, liabilities, demands, obligations, promises, acts, agreements, damages and costs of any nature whatsoever, in law or equity, whether known or unknown, (collectively referred to as "claims"), including any and all claims arising out of your employment and/or termination of employment with the Company, which you have or may have against the Company Released Parties arising from the beginning of time up to and including the date of execution of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b.Without limiting the general nature of the foregoing waiver and release in subsection (a), you acknowledge and agree that the release and waiver includes, but is not limited to, (i) any statutory, civil or administrative claim, whether arising under federal, state or local statutes, ordinances or common law, including, but not limited to, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, Sections 1981 and 1983 of

Consultant acknowledges that prior to the Separation Date and in the course of providing the Services, Consultant has and will become familiar with and have access to Trex's and its Affiliates' trade secrets and other confidential and proprietary information concerning Trex and its Affiliates, that Consultant has developed and will continue to develop customer, supplier and vendor contacts and goodwill, and that Consultant's services are of special, unique and extraordinary value to Trex and its Affiliates. Therefore, Trex and Consultant mutually agree that it is in the interest of both parties for Consultant to enter into the restrictive covenants set forth in Sections 6, 7 and 8 above to, among other things, protect the legitimate business interests of Trex and those of its Affiliates, and that such restrictions and covenants contained in Sections 6, 7 and 8 are reasonable in geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects given the nature of the parties' prior relationship and the performance of the Services and the nature of the Company's and its Affiliates' businesses and that such restrictions and covenants do not and will not unduly impair Consultant's ability to earn a living. Consultant further acknowledges and agrees that (i) Trex would not have entered into this Agreement but for the restrictive covenants of Consultant set forth in Sections 6, 7, and 8 and (ii) such restrictive covenants have been made by Consultant in order to induce Trex to enter into this Agreement. The restrictive covenant obligations set forth in Sections 6, 7 and 8 are in addition to any other written agreements covering such subjects that Trex may have with Consultant (including, without limitation, the Transition Agreement and EA), and are not meant to and do not excuse any additional obligations that Consultant may have under such agreements or applicable law; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the restrictive covenant obligations that are more favorable to Trex or any of its Affiliates shall govern to the extent required by applicable law.

<br>**TREX COMPANY ANNOUNCES CEO SUCCESSION PLAN** 

*Bryan Fairbanks to Retire After Nearly 23 Years with TREX; Adam Zambanini Appointed President and Chief Executive Officer*

**WINCHESTER, Va.—February 24, 2026—**Trex Company, Inc. (NYSE:TREX), the world's largest manufacturer of high-performance, low-maintenance composite decking and railing products, today announced that Bryan H. Fairbanks, Trex's President and Chief Executive Officer, will retire from Trex after nearly 23 years with the Company, effective April 28, 2026. The Board of Directors has appointed Adam D. Zambanini, Trex's current Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, as Trex's next President and Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board, effective April 28, 2026. Following the transition period, Mr. Fairbanks will serve as an outside consultant to the Company.

Mr. Zambanini brings more than 20 years of leadership experience at Trex, most recently serving as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. Over the course of his tenure, he has held multiple leadership positions, including President of Residential Products and Vice President of Marketing, and has been instrumental in driving Trex's market growth, product development and operational execution.

James Cline, Chairman of the Board of Directors, said "Bryan has made an immeasurable mark on the organization and embodies Trex's core qualities – vision, innovation and discipline. In determining a successor, the Board undertook a comprehensive evaluation process, including assessing both internal and external candidates, and Adam was the clear and most capable successor to Bryan. He is a strong leader and brand-builder and his knowledge of Trex's business, product roadmap, markets and people is unmatched. Adam has been a true partner to Bryan in developing our strategic initiatives and product innovation, which will be an important advantage as he steps into his new role."

Mr. Zambanini, said, "It is an honor to succeed Bryan, someone who has made an impact on me and so many across Trex. As I assume the role as the Company's next CEO, I am energized by the opportunity to partner with our dynamic leaders and continue to drive growth and shareholder value. Trex is the undisputed leader in wood-alternative decking and railing and I am confident that Trex will continue to win in our markets and categories, while building on our strong financial profile."

"After a nearly 23-year career at Trex, including the past six years as CEO, now is the right time to transition leadership to Adam as part of our succession plan," said Mr. Fairbanks. "I have had the opportunity to work with the best talent in our industry and lead our iconic Trex brand that has shaped the decking industry and delivered above market returns for our investors. Having worked closely with Adam for two decades, I have been impressed with his leadership capabilities and his drive for performance. I take pride in what we have built and move on with confidence in Trex's future."

Mr. Cline concluded, "Six years ago, Bryan was announced as CEO and during his tenure he has grown Trex, shown resilience within a challenging industry environment, strategically invested to enhance the Company's future position and built a world-class team of innovators and operators that have consistently delivered for our channel partners and consumers. On behalf of the Board and the Trex
