Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Item 2.04 Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.
As of February 28, 2013, based on discussions occurring on March 29, 2013, the Company recorded a $68.8 million accrual associated with an investigation of the Company’s Building Solutions Group roofing contracts with the U.S. General Services Administration (the “GSA”). The substantial majority of the accrual relates to the sale of products and services from 2002 to 2008. The Company’s Building Solutions Group is in ongoing settlement discussions with the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and the GSA aimed at resolving the investigation. The Company is cooperating with the investigation, which involves compliance with certain pricing terms and conditions of GSA contracts under which the Company’s Building Solutions Group roofing division sold products and services to the federal government. The actual amount of the Company’s loss, which remains subject to approval by the DOJ, may vary from the amount of the accrual.
