or by-laws, the Company, upon the written request of the holder thereof, shall issue to such holder a new certificate evidencing such Shares without the second paragraph of the legend required by Section 4.3(a) endorsed thereon. 

ARTICLE V 
 CERTAIN COVENANTS 
 Each Management Stockholder, individually and as to
himself or herself only, covenants, for the benefit of the Company and its Subsidiaries: 
 Section 5.1
Access. Each Management Stockholder acknowledges that (a) he or she has had and will continue to have access to significant confidential and valuable information which can be used unfairly and to the harm of the Company by present or
potential competitors in the windows, doors, siding, fencing, railing and decking industry and (b) is agreeing to the covenants set forth in this Article V in order to induce the Company to proceed with the Reorganization Merger or in
order to induce the Company to offer such Management Stockholder the opportunity to make an investment in the Company, as the case may be, which is of substantial benefit to the Management Stockholders. The covenants set forth in this Article V
may only be enforced by the Company or its Subsidiaries. 

  
 17 

 Section 5.2 During Employment. Each Management Stockholder agrees that,
during the period of his or her continued employment or consultancy by the Company or its Affiliates, he or she will not render services to or give advice to, affiliate with (as employer, partner, consultant or otherwise), or invest or acquire any
interest in, in whole or in part, any other person or organization, which is engaged or about to become engaged in the Business, in the case of any Management Stockholder who has corporate level responsibility relating to all such business segments,
or developing, manufacturing, marketing or selling, in whole or in part, any of the products sold by each applicable business segment, in the case of any Management Stockholder who has responsibility relating to one or more but not all of the
business segments included in the Business (as the case may be, a “Conflicting Organization”). Each Management Stockholder shall not, however, be prohibited from investing in securities of any company that is listed on a national
securities exchange or traded on NASDAQ, provided that he or she does not hereafter own, or have the right to acquire, more than 1% of the outstanding voting securities of such a Conflicting Organization. 

Section 5.3 Post Employment. Each Management Stockholder further agrees that, until the expiration of a period of one
year after the cessation or termination of his or her employment or consultancy with the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary or with or without “cause” or Good Reason, he or she
(a) will not render services or give advice to, or affiliate with (as employee, partner, consultant or otherwise) or invest or acquire any interest in, any Conflicting Organization and (b) shall not, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit
any person, or encourage any other person to hire or solicit any person, who has been employed by the Company or any Subsidiary within one year prior to the date of such hiring or solicitation or encourage any such person to leave such employment.
Each Management Stockholder shall not, however, be prohibited from investing in securities of any company that is listed on a national securities exchange or traded on NASDAQ, provided that he or she does not hereafter own, or have the right
to acquire, more than 1% of the outstanding voting securities of such company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the business of the Conflicting Organization has separate and distinct divisions, any Management Stockholder may, following
termination of such employment, render services to or give advice to, or affiliate with, a division that would not itself constitute a Conflicting Organization if, prior thereto, the Company received written assurances satisfactory to the Company
from such Conflicting Organization and such Management Stockholder that such Management Stockholder will not directly or indirectly render services or give advice or information to any division of such Conflicting Organization which would itself
constitute a Conflicting Organization, and (ii) to the extent the Management Stockholder is entitled to installment severance payments under any severance agreement, plan or policy of the Company or any Subsidiary, as applicable, upon his
termination of employment without “cause,” due to “good reason,” due to a “material adverse change,” or upon “disability,” as each and any of those terms, or terms of similar import, may be used in such
severance agreement, plan or policy, then the time period referred to in the first sentence of this Section 5.3 shall not exceed the time period during which the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company is obligated to make such installment
severance payments to such Management Stockholder. 
 Section 5.4 Blue Pencil If any court determines that
any of the covenants set forth in Section 5.2 or 5.3, or any part thereof, is unenforceable because of the duration or 

  
 18 

 
geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be
enforceable. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 GENERAL 
 Section 6.1 Certificate of Incorporation. The
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, a copy of which (as in effect on the IPO Date) is attached hereto as Exhibit A, as may be amended, supplemented and/or restated from time to time, shall provide (a) until
the CI Partnerships and the CI Distributee Stockholders cease to beneficially own, in the aggregate, at least 15% of the outstanding Common Stock (assuming the exercise or conversion of all outstanding options (whether vested or unvested) and
convertible or exchangeable securities held by the CI Partnerships and the CI Distributee Stockholders), that the Company elects not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL and (b) for a renunciation of corporate opportunities presented
to the CI Partnerships (and their respective Affiliates and Director nominees) to the extent permitted by Section 122(17) of the DGCL and substantially on the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit A. 

Section 6.2 Amendments; Waivers. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may be waived, modified or amended only
with the written approval of (a) the Company, (b) each CI Partnership (or the CI General Partner, with respect to any such partnership that has dissolved) and (c) the Pre-IPO Stockholders holding Shares with a majority of ownership
interest in the Company represented by all Shares then held by the Pre-IPO Stockholders; provided, however, that the written approval of the Management Stockholders holding Shares with a majority of the portion of the ownership
interest in the Company represented by all Shares then held by the Management Stockholders shall be required for any amendment or modification to Article IV or to this Section 6.2, in each case solely insofar as such amendment or modification
(individually or when aggregated with all such amendments and modifications) materially and adversely alters the rights, remedies or obligations of the Management Stockholders relative to the rights, remedies and obligations of the CI Partnerships.
No waiver of any provision or default under, nor consent to any exception to, the terms of this Agreement or any agreement contemplated hereby shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party to be bound and then only to the specific
purpose, extent and instance so provided. 
 Section 6.3 Termination. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of: 

 

	 	(i)	an agreement in writing among (A) the Company, (B) each CI Partnership (or the CI General Partner, with respect to any such partnership that has dissolved)
and (C) other Pre-IPO Stockholders holding Shares representing more than 50 percent of the Voting Power held by all Pre-IPO Stockholders (other than the CI Partnerships and the CI Distributee Stockholders) to terminate this Agreement; or

  

	 	(ii)	with respect to any Pre-IPO Stockholder, (with respect to any provisions other than those set forth in Article V) if such Pre-IPO Stockholder no longer owns any Shares
(or stock options or other securities exercisable or convertible or exchangeable for Shares), other than by reason of a Transfer in violation of this Agreement. 

  
 19 

 (b) Termination of any provisions of this Agreement shall not relieve any party from any
Liability for the breach of any obligations set forth in this Agreement prior to such termination. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the provisions of Section 6.2 through 6.19 shall survive any termination of any
provisions of this Agreement. 
 Section 6.4 Further Assurances. Each party agrees that it will from time to
time, upon the reasonable request of another party, execute such documents and instruments and take such further action as may be required to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement. 

Section 6.5 Binding Effect; Assignment. 
 (a) Neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy or Liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by any party pursuant to any Transfer of Shares or otherwise, except assignments in
connection with Transfers to Permitted Assignees in accordance with Article IV. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the parties and their respective heirs, successors and Permitted Assignees to whom Shares
are Transferred). 
 (b) For any Person other than the Company whose name is set forth on the signature pages hereto, in the
event that such Person executes and delivers this Agreement prior to such Person owning any shares of capital stock of the Company or acquiring Shares pursuant to the Reorganization Merger, the applicable provisions of this Agreement shall become
binding upon such Person when such Person first acquires shares of capital stock of the Company. 
 Section 6.6
Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all Exhibits and Schedules hereto and thereto and all other agreements referenced therein and herein, constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter
hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the parties and there are no warranties, representations or other agreements between the parties in connection
with the subject matter hereof except as specifically set forth herein and therein. 
 Section 6.7 Rights of
Pre-IPO Stockholders Independent. The rights available to the Pre-IPO Stockholders under this Agreement and at Law shall be deemed to be several and not dependent on each other and each such right accordingly shall be construed as complete in
itself and not by reference to any other such right. Any one or more and/or any combination of such rights may be exercised by any Pre-IPO Stockholder and/or the Company from time to time and no such exercise shall exhaust the rights or preclude any
other Pre-IPO Stockholder from exercising any one or more of such rights or combination thereof from time to time thereafter or simultaneously. 

  
 20 

 Section 6.8 Confidentiality. Subject to the final sentence of this
Section 6.8, each Pre-IPO Stockholder recognizes and acknowledges that it may have and may in the future receive certain confidential and proprietary information of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including confidential information of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries regarding identifiable, specific and discrete business opportunities being pursued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, “know-how,” financial information, trade secrets, recipes and formulas,
lease or construction terms, consultant contracts, pricing policies, operational methods, marketing or franchising plans or strategies, product development techniques or plans, business acquisition plans, new personnel acquisition plans, training
materials, designs and design projects and other business affairs relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries (the “Confidential Information”). Each Pre-IPO Stockholder agrees that, during or after the term of this Agreement,
whether directly or indirectly through an Affiliate or otherwise, it will not disclose to any Person for any reason or purpose whatsoever, any Confidential Information, except (i) in connection with the business and affairs of the Company and
its Subsidiaries, (ii) as required in the course of performing his or her duties for the Company or its Subsidiaries, (iii) as may be necessary and proper in the course of performing such Pre-IPO Stockholder’s obligations, or
enforcing such Pre-IPO Stockholder’s rights, under this Agreement and the agreements expressly contemplated hereby; (iv) as part of such Pre-IPO Stockholder’s normal reporting, rating or review procedure (including normal credit
rating or pricing process), or in connection with such Pre-IPO Stockholder’s or such Pre-IPO Stockholder’s Affiliates’ normal fund raising, marketing, informational or reporting activities, or to such Pre-IPO Stockholder’s (or
any of its respective Affiliates’) Affiliates, auditors, attorneys or other agents; provided that no disclosure of material non-public Confidential Information shall be made pursuant to this clause (iv) to a recipient that is not a
Governmental Entity unless such recipient enters into an agreement not to disclose such Confidential Information or is otherwise required by Law to keep such Confidential Information confidential; (v) to any bona fide prospective purchaser of
the equity or assets of such Pre-IPO Stockholder or its respective Affiliates or the Shares held by such Pre-IPO Stockholder, or prospective merger partner of such Pre-IPO Stockholder or its respective Affiliates, provided that such purchaser
or merger partner acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 6.8 or (vi) as is required or requested to be disclosed by order of a Governmental Entity, or by subpoena, summons or legal process, or by Law
(provided that, to the extent practical and permitted by Law, the CI Partnerships required to make such disclosure shall provide to the Board prompt notice of such disclosure). For purposes of this Section 6.8, “Confidential
Information” shall not include any information of which (x) such Person learns from a source other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their representatives, employees, agents or other service providers, and in each
case who is not known by such Person to be bound by a confidentiality obligation, (y) is disclosed in a prospectus or other documents for dissemination to the public or (z) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result
of a disclosure by such Pre-IPO Stockholder, directly or indirectly through an Affiliate or otherwise, in violation of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 6.8 shall continue in effect against each Pre-IPO Stockholder so long such as
the Pre-IPO Stockholder continues to be a Pre-IPO Stockholder and for a period of two years thereafter. All memoranda, notes, lists, records and other documents or papers (and all copies thereof), including such items stored in computer
memories, on microfiche or by any other means, made or compiled by or on behalf of the Management Stockholder, or made available to the Management Stockholder concerning the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries, are

  
 21 

 
and shall be the Company’s property and shall be delivered to the Company promptly upon the termination of the Management Stockholder’s employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries
or at any other time on written request. 
 Section 6.9 Governing Law. This Agreement, the legal relations
between the parties and any claim, action, suit, arbitration, inquiry, proceeding or investigation by or before any Governmental Entity, whether contractual or non-contractual, instituted by any party with respect to matters arising under or growing
out of or in connection with or in respect of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and performed in such State and without regard to conflicts of Law
doctrines, except to the extent that certain matters are preempted by federal Law or are governed as a matter of controlling Law by the Law of the jurisdiction of organization of the respective parties. 

Section 6.10 Jurisdiction and Venue. The parties hereto hereby agree and consent to be subject to the jurisdiction of
any federal court of the District of Delaware or the Delaware Court of Chancery over any action, suit or proceeding (a “Legal Action”) arising out of or in connection with this Agreement. The parties hereto irrevocably waive the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such Legal Action. Each of the parties hereto further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such Legal Action by the mailing of copies
thereof by registered mail, postage prepaid, to such party at its address set forth in this Agreement, such service of process to be effective upon acknowledgment of receipt of such registered mail. Nothing in this Section 6.10 shall affect the
right of any party hereto to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law. 
 Section 6.11 Specific
Enforcement. The parties hereto acknowledge that the remedies at Law of the other parties for a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement would be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, any party to this Agreement, without posting any
bond, and in addition to all other remedies that may be available, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy
that may then be available. 
 Section 6.12 Headings. The descriptive headings of the Articles, Sections and
subsections of this Agreement are for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement. 

Section 6.13 Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendment hereto or any other agreement (or document) delivered
pursuant hereto may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts. All of such counterparts shall constitute one and the same agreement (or other document) and shall become effective (unless otherwise
provided therein) when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party.

liabilities, losses, damages and costs and other out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Indemnified Parties or any of them before or after the date of this Agreement
(collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), arising out of any actual or threatened action, cause of action, suit, or claim arising directly or indirectly out of such CI Partnership’s or its other Indemnified Party’s
actual, alleged or deemed control or ability to influence the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the actual or alleged act or omission of any CI Partnerships’ Director nominee(s) including for any alleged act or omission arising out of or in
connection with the IPO (other than any such Indemnified Liabilities that arise out of any breach of this Agreement by such Indemnified party or other related Persons); provided that if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be
unavailable or unenforceable for any reason, the Company hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable Law. To the extent not prohibited by
applicable law, the Company shall pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an Indemnified Party in defending any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a
“Proceeding”), in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law, such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only
upon receipt of an undertaking by the Indemnified Party to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 6.18(a) or otherwise. The rights of any
Indemnified Party to indemnification hereunder will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other agreement or instruction to which such Indemnified Party is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary
or under Law or regulation or under the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and shall extend to such Indemnified Party’s successors and assigns. Each of the Indemnified Parties shall be a third

 24

Directors”) may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and insurance provided by other entities and/or organizations (collectively, the “Fund Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees and
acknowledges (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort with respect to the Specified Directors (i.e., its obligations to the Specified Directors are primary and any obligation of the Fund Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide
indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the Specified Directors are secondary), (ii) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the Specified Directors and shall be liable for the full
amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent not prohibited by (and not merely to the extent affirmatively permitted by) applicable law and as required by this Agreement or the certificate of
incorporation or by-laws of the Company (or any other agreement between the Company and the Specified Directors), without regard to any rights the Specified Directors may have against the Fund Indemnitors and (iii) that it irrevocably waives,
relinquishes and releases the Fund Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Fund Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees and acknowledges that no advancement
or payment by the Fund Indemnitors on behalf of the Specified Directors with respect to any claim for which the Specified Directors have sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Fund Indemnitors shall have a right
of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Specified Directors against the Company. 
 Section 6.19 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided in Section 6.18, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party, other
than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under this Agreement or otherwise create any third party beneficiary hereto.
