Agreement is based on the following: 
  
 UFP, under licensing terms contained
herein, agrees to manufacture treated lumber, deck components and other building products specifically for USA Deck (“Wood Products”); and 
  

	 	•	UFP agrees to sell Wood Products to, and USA Deck agrees to purchase some or all of the Wood Products from UFP for use in USA Deck’s business at USA Deck’s facilities, and
shall also use the Displays, all as more specifically provided below; and 

  

	 	•	UFP has designed deck display models (the “Displays”) that could be used by USA Deck in connection with its sales of installed deck systems; and 

 

	 	•	UFP currently maintains numerous Displays in various retail stores owned and operated by The Home Depot U.S.A., Inc. (“HD Stores”), which HD Stores are located in

 A.     During the term of this Agreement, UFP will sell Wood Products to USA Deck as requested by USA Deck. For the first twelve months of such sales to any particular USA Deck location, such sales shall be pursuant to a
consignment agreement, the form of which is attached hereto in Appendix 1.A and which will be executed between the parties of even date herewith. Thereafter, such sales shall be standard credit sales under terms and conditions to be negotiated in
good faith between the parties. 
  
 B.
    Upon request by USA Deck, UFP will promptly manufacture and deliver to USA Deck Displays as USA Deck requests for HD Stores located in Market Zones 75, 234, 131, 185, and 164. UFP shall invoice USA Deck up to $750.00 for each
such Display provided by UFP, or such lesser amount as may otherwise be agreed to between the parties (the “Display Fee”). UFP will deliver one such Display to each applicable HD Store within the MarketZones, which delivery will include
in-store set up and installation of such Displays. USA Deck shall pay the Display Fee invoices (i) over a period of 18 months from the date hereof, in equal monthly installments, or (ii) upon termination of this Agreement, whichever occurs first.

  
 C.     For the consideration set forth
herein, UFP hereby transfers to USA Deck, all of UFP’s right, title, interest, possession and ownership in and to any existing kiosks, stands, advertisements or Displays, and any materials related thereto, which exist in any HD Store Market
Zones 1, 45, 282, 75, 234, 131, 185, 51, 129, 164, 101 and 109 (the “Materials”). The parties agree to execute simultaneously with this Agreement, the Bill of Sale attached hereto as Appendix 2 and made a part hereof. 
  
 D.     USA Deck is engaged in the modular fabrication,
modular manufacture and modular design (hereinafter these proprietary processes and activities are singularly and jointly referred to as the

remodeling industry. For the duration of this Agreement and upon the conditions hereinafter more specifically set forth, USA Deck hereby grants a limited non-exclusive license to Universal to utilize the Deck Process in conjunction with this
Agreement for the sole purpose of providing Wood Products to USA Deck for the purposes contemplated herein. Except as otherwise set forth herein, Universal shall have no right to (i) to disclose to or permit or sublicense others to use the Deck
Process; or (ii) to use the Deck Process in connection with the manufacture, use or sale of equipment or goods manufactured by Universal. 
  
 2.     TERM. This Agreement shall be effective on the date written above and shall continue thereafter until terminated as provided herein.
After the effective date, either party may terminate this Agreement by giving the other party thirty days written notice of its election to terminate. All the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall survive termination until all
rights created or obligations incurred prior to the termination have been fully paid or otherwise satisfied. 
  
 3.     REBATE. UFP shall rebate to USA Deck an amount equal to 1% of USA Deck’s purchases of Wood Products. The rebate shall be based on the amount of invoices actually paid, and shall
be calculated and paid on an annual basis. Upon execution of this Agreement, UFP shall make an advance of Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00) against future rebates, which will be credited until actual rebates in that amount are earned by USA
Deck. If this Agreement is terminated by USA Deck prior to USA Deck having earned the rebate advance, the unearned portion shall promptly be repaid to UFP. 
  
 4.     PRICE AND TERMS. The purchase price for the Wood Products shall be established by the Purchase Orders submitted to UFP by USA Deck, if
accepted by UFP. Terms shall be 1%-15, net 30 ADI/ADF. 
  
 5.
    DEFAULT. Failure of either party to make any payment when due, the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against either party, or breach of any provision in this Agreement shall constitute a Default of this Agreement,
and of any other agreements between the parties. Upon Default, either party may exercise all legal and equitable rights available to it, including but not limited to:

 RE:     Termination of Retailer Agreement 
  
 Dear Murray: 
  
 This letter sets forth the terms under which U.S. Home Systems, Inc. (“you”) and Renewal by Andersen Corporation (“we”
or “Renewal”) mutually agree to terminate the Retailer Agreement for the Los Angeles market area (the “Market”), dated September 26, 2001 (the “Retailer Agreement”). 
  
 Effective Date. The termination of the Retailer Agreement will be effective as of
December 31, 2004 (the “Effective Date”). 
  
 Transition of
Business. Renewal will continue to accept new orders from you until products necessary to complete existing customer contracts have been shipped to you; provided that we will not accept any new orders after the Effective Date. Your current
payment terms will remain in effect; provided, however, that we reserve the right to change those terms if you become delinquent on payments or as otherwise permitted under the Retailer Agreement. You will use your reasonable commercial efforts to
complete installation of all Renewal by Andersen®
products shipped to you prior to the Effective Date and to complete any remaining installations as soon as possible thereafter. 
  
 Renewal may select one or more new affiliates for all or any part of the Market (the “New Affiliates”) at any time, including affiliates from surrounding
markets who may operate in the Market on a temporary basis. You agree to cooperate with us and any New Affiliates to transition your Renewal by Andersen business to us or to any New Affiliates, including without limitation the continued operation of
your Torrance retail showroom until the Effective Date, the termination of your use of the Renewal by Andersen name after the Effective Date (including any use on your websites) and the transfer to us or any New Affiliates we may designate of your
customer data base, open customer quotes and any telephone numbers associated with your Renewal by Andersen business, including your sales and installation of Renewal by Andersen products. You also will take such other actions as we may reasonably
request in order to try to provide for a smooth transition to the New Affiliates. 
  
 You intend to offer employees and installation contractors of your Renewal by Andersen business an opportunity for employment in your other business operations. If any such employees or installation contractors refuse your offer, you will
give Renewal and the New Affiliates access to those employees and installation contractors for the purpose of evaluating whether Renewal or any New Affiliate is interested in hiring or retaining them; provided that Renewal and the New Affiliates
will work with you to try to minimize the disruption to your business caused by any such evaluation.

 Service Obligations. Until the Effective Date, you will continue to service your customers who have purchased Renewal by Andersen® products and work with us and the New Affiliates to transition such service to us or the New Affiliates. After the
Effective Date and for a period of two years from the date of your completion of an installation, if you, we or any New Affiliate receives a request from one of your customers for service and repair work not covered by our product warranty, but
covered by your installation warranty, we or the New Affiliates will perform (or have others perform) any services necessary to fulfill your installation warranty and will bill you for the costs and expenses incurred. You agree to pay such costs and
expenses in a timely manner. In the event any such services to any customer are reasonably expected to cost more than $1,000.00, we or the New Affiliate will give you a written estimate of such costs prior to performing such services. You will have
five days from receipt of such estimate to inspect the job and either (i) agree to pay for such services, or (ii) agree to perform such services with your own personnel. Any such services performed by you must be completed within twenty days after
your receipt of such estimate and must meet our standards. If you do not respond within five days after receipt of any such estimate, we or the New Affiliate will perform the services and bill you for the costs and expenses. Estimates for service
work pursuant to this paragraph will be sent to you via fax at 972-459-4800, Attention: Murray Gross. 
  
 Return of Property, On or before the Effective Date, you will return to Renewal all of the manuals and other printed or electronic materials and other property provided to you relating to Renewal or Renewal by
Andersen® products or services, You will cooperate
with Renewal to prepare a list of all such items and to arrange for the shipping and delivery of such items to a destination selected by Renewal. Renewal will reimburse you for the reasonable cost of shipping such items. 
  
 Costa Mesa and Torrance Showrooms. We understand that you have closed your Costa Mesa
showroom (but to satisfy your lease obligations you will operate a sales office for your other non-competing businesses in that facility) and will convert your Torrance showroom to accommodate your other non-competing business operations. We will
use commercially reasonable efforts to sell your Renewal by Andersen® product displays and the signage from those showrooms to a New Affiliate. You agree to make such displays and signage available to us and New Affiliates for inspection as reasonably requested. If we are not able to
find a New Affiliate who will purchase your displays and signage in the Costa Mesa showroom by December 31, 2004, we will purchase them from you for $42,300. We are not obligated to purchase the displays and signs at the Torrance showroom, but we
will use our commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Torrance showroom displays and signs to a New Affiliate at fair market value. 
  
 No Liability for Termination. As stated in the Retailer Agreement, neither you nor Renewal will have any liability to the other party for any compensation, loss,
recoupment or damage, asserted on any basis, for the termination of the Retailer Agreement or termination of the parties’ relationship. 
  
 Survival of Agreement Provisions. As stated in the Retailer Agreement, termination of the Retailer Agreement does not release you from your obligation to make
payment of all amounts now or hereafter owed to Renewal. In addition, certain sections of the Retailer Agreement survive beyond its termination and in some cases are applicable to both of us. Those sections include, without limitation, the sections
entitled Confidential Information, Limited Warranty and Indemnification. The confidentiality obligations under the Retailer Agreement survive termination indefinitely. We both will promptly return to the other party upon termination of the Agreement
any such confidential and proprietary information and records in the other’s possession or control. The indemnification obligations of both parties under the Retailer Agreement also survive termination indefinitely.

 Public Announcements. Except as may otherwise be required by law or regulation or by court or administrative agency order, neither you nor Renewal will make any public announcement or communication to customers
regarding the termination of the Retailer Agreement or termination of the parties’ relationship, without the other party’s prior consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld. 
  
 Please indicate your agreement with the terms set forth in this letter by signing the
enclosed copy of this letter in the space provided below and returning the signed copy to me as soon as possible. 
  
 Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Please call me if you have any questions.
