PROVISIONS

1.Term and Duties. The term of this Agreement shall commence on January 9, 2019 (the “Start Date”) and continue during Executive’s employment with the Employer and thereafter for those provisions designed to survive employment. Executive’s employment shall beat-will and may be terminated by either party pursuant to Section 4. Executive acknowledges that Executive has continuing obligations under this Agreement including, but not limited to, Sections 5, 6, 7 and 21, in the event that Executive’s employment is terminated, regardless of reason. Executive shall serve as the Employer’s Chief Financial Officer. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Executive shall devote Executive’s best efforts and abilities to the performance of Executive’s duties on behalf of the Employer and to the promotion of its interests consistent with and subject to the direction of the Chief Executive Officer of Employer.

2.Exclusivity. Executive shall devote all of Executive’s business time, energies, attention and abilities to the operation of the business of the Employer and shall not be actively involved in any other trade or business or as an employee of any other trade or business. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive owes a fiduciary duty of loyalty, fidelity and allegiance to act at all times in the best interests of the Employer and to do no act which would directly or indirectly injure the Employer’s business, interests, or reputation. In keeping with Executive’s fiduciary duties to the Employer, the Employer agrees that Executive shall not become involved in a conflict of interest with the Employer, or upon discovery thereof, allow such a conflict to continue. Moreover, Executive shall not engage in any activity that might involve a possible conflict of interest without first obtaining approval from the Employer. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 2 are not intended to prevent Executive from serving on the board of directors or in a similar capacity for another business, religious, charitable or community organization, provided such service does not substantially interfere with the performance by Executive of his duties and responsibilities hereunder or violate Sections 5, 6 or 7 of this Agreement.

3.Compensation.

(a)Base Compensation. In consideration of the services to be rendered by Executive, the Employer shall pay to Executive base compensation at a rate of $500,000 per year (“Base Compensation”)(pro-rated for any partial years). The Base Compensation shall be paid to Executive in accordance with the Employer’s standard payroll policies. Executive’s Base Compensation may be increased from time to time by the Employer at its discretion subject to the terms herein. Executive shall not be entitled to receive the salary and benefits that are associated with the offered position unless Executive first executes and agrees to be bound by this Agreement.

(b)Annual Bonus. Executive will be eligible to participate in any annual bonus program made available to senior executives of the Employer (the “Bonus Plan”), which as of the date of this Agreement is the Key Employee Management Incentive Plan. Executive’s target bonus opportunity under the Bonus Plan for each year shall equal seventy-five percent (75%) of the Base Compensation. The actual annual bonus paid for any year shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Bonus Plan.

(c)Benefits. During Executive’s employment, Executive shall be eligible to participate in such benefit programs offered by the Employer as are offered to senior executives of Employer (except in the case of equity-based incentive plans), including but not limited to the Employer’s group health insurance and 401(k) plans, subject in each case to the generally applicable terms and conditions of the plan, benefit or program in question. All matters of eligibility for coverage or benefits under any benefit plan or Employer policy shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of such plan or policy. The Employer reserves the right to change, alter or terminate any benefit in its sole discretion. Executive shall be entitled to four (4) weeks’ vacation and sick leave per calendar year(pro-rated for any partial years), to be used subject to the terms of the Employer’s applicable policies and procedures. The Employer will reimburse Executive for all reasonable and necessary travel, entertainment and other business expenses incurred by Executive in the performance of Executive’s duties upon the presentation of reasonably itemized statements of such expenses in accordance with Employer’s applicable policies or procedures with respect to senior executives of Employer. The Employer shall pay Executive’s reasonable professional fees, in an amount up to $15,000, incurred to negotiate and prepare this Agreement and all related agreements.

(d)Sign-on Bonus. As soon as practicable following the date on which Executive’s employment with the Employer commences (the “Hire Date”), the Employer shall pay to Executive a cashsign-on bonus award equal to $250,000. In the event that Executive resigns his employment prior to the second anniversary of the Hire Date, Executive will be required to repay apro-rated portion of theafter-tax value of suchsign-on bonus, determined based on the number of days (relative to 730) of suchtwo-year period that follows Executive’s resignation.

(e)Equity Participation. The board of directors of AOT Building Products GP Corp. will grant Executive 4,750 Profits Interests in AOT Building Products L.P. (“Parent”) subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of AOT Building Products, L.P., dated as of September 30, 2013, among AOT Building Products GP Corp., Ares Corporate Opportunities Fund IV, L.P., 2384590 Ontario Limited and the other signatories thereto and the applicable LP Interest Agreement, promptly after the date of this Agreement.

4.Termination of Employment.

(a) The Employer may terminate Executive’s employment for any reason or no reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason, the Employer shall be obligated to pay Executive all earned but unpaid Base Compensation through the date of termination, unpaid expense reimbursements to which Executive is entitled and accrued but unused vacation (the “Accrued Amounts”). If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Employer other than for Cause or by Executive for Good Reason, the Employer shall be obligated, in addition to the payment of the Accrued Amounts, to continue to pay to Executive the Executive’s Base Compensation at the rate then in effect for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination date (the “Termination Payments”). Employer’s obligation to make the Termination Payments shall be conditioned upon (i) Executive’s compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 7 (the “Post-Employment Restrictions”) and Executive’s obligations with respect to Employer’s Confidential Information (as defined below) and (ii) Executive’s execution, delivery andnon-revocation of a valid and enforceable general release of claims in a form reasonably acceptable to Employer, and not imposing any post-employment restrictions on Executive that he had not agreed to prior to the termination date, (the “Release”) that becomes effective within sixty (60) days following the date of termination of employment. Subject to Section 4(b), the Termination Payments shall be paid in equal installments over the twelve-month period following Executive’s termination of employment on the Employer’s regular payroll dates commencing on the first payroll date following the sixtieth (60th) day after the date of termination of employment, with the first such payment including the aggregate amount that would have been paid to Executive during the first sixty (60) days following the date of termination had the delay provided herein not applied. The Accrued Amounts shall be paid within sixty (60) days following the termination date.

(b) If Executive is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to the minimum extent required under Section 409A any payments required to be made pursuant to this Section 4 which are subject to Section 409A shall not commence until six (6) months from the termination date, with the first payment to be equal to the aggregate amount that would have been paid to Executive under this Section 4 during the first six (6) months immediately following the termination date had this Section 4(b) not been applicable. Each installment of the Termination Payments shall be considered a “separate payment” for purposes of Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Employer shall not be liable for, and nothing provided or contained in this Agreement will be construed to obligate or cause the Employer to be liable for, any tax, interest or penalties imposed on Executive related to or arising with respect to any violation of Section 409A.

(c) The foregoing payments upon termination of Executive’s employment as described in this Section 4 shall constitute the exclusive severance payments due to Executive upon a termination of Executive’s employment. For the avoidance of doubt, Executive is not entitled to any Termination Payments in the event that Executive resigns (regardless of reason).

(d) “Cause” as used herein shall mean Executive’s (i) commission of an act which constitutes common law fraud or embezzlement (other than occasional, customary andde minimis use of Employer’s property for personal purposes); (ii) indictment for or conviction or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to (A) a felony or (B) any crime (whether or not a felony) involving moral turpitude; (iii) commission of any intentional tortious or intentional unlawful act in either such case causing material harm to Employer’s business, standing or reputation or the business, standing or reputation of

any of Employer’s Affiliates; (iv) gross negligence in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder; (v) breach of Executive’s duty of loyalty or care to Employer or any of its Affiliates; (vi) other misconduct that is materially detrimental to Employer or any of its Affiliates; (vii) refusal or willful failure to perform Executive’s duties or the deliberate and consistent refusal to conform to or follow any reasonable policy adopted by the Employer, in each case after receiving written notice describing Executive’s noncompliance and being given ten (10) business days to cure (to the extent curable) suchnon-compliance; (viii) material breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with or for the benefit of Employer or any of its Affiliates to which Executive is a party or by which Executive is bound, which breach is not cured (to the extent curable) within ten (10) business days following written notice from Employer; or (ix) Executive’s death or Disability.

(e) “Disability” as used herein shall mean that Executive is unable to perform the essential functions of Executive’s job, with a reasonable accommodation, due to illness or injury for such duration as entitles Executive to long-term disability payments under the Employer plan in which he participates.

(f) “Good Reason” as used herein shall mean a termination by Executive of his employment within ninety (90) days following the occurrence of any of the following events without the Executive’s consent that remains uncured for ten (10) business days after the receipt by Employer of written notice thereof from Executive: (i) a material reduction in Base Salary; (ii) a materially adverse change in title, duties or responsibilities (including reporting responsibilities); or (iii) a relocation of Executive’s principal place of business to a location that is more than 50 miles from Chicago, Illinois on the date of Executive’s employment commencement.

5.Nondisclosure of Confidential Information.

(a) Executive recognizes and acknowledges that the Employer and its “Affiliates” (defined below) continually obtain and develop “Confidential Information” (defined below). During Executive’s employment and at all times thereafter, Executive will hold in strictest confidence and will not disclose, use, or publish any of the Confidential Information, except as such disclosure, use or publication may be required in connection with Executive’s work for the Employer. If at any time (including after termination of Executive’s employment with the Employer), a person, entity, governmental agency, or a court of competent jurisdiction requests or demands that Executive disclose Confidential Information, to the extent permitted under applicable law or regulation, Executive will promptly notify the Employer, and will cooperate with the Employer or its Affiliates in their efforts to prevent or limit such disclosure. Disclosure of Confidential Information by Executive or by anyone else, whether done intentionally or inadvertently, will not affect Executive’s continuing obligations under this Agreement as to the disclosed Confidential Information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive’s obligation to protect Confidential Information shall not prohibit Executive from disclosing matters that are protected under any applicable whistleblower laws, including reporting possible violations of laws or regulations, or responding to inquiries from, or testifying before, any governmental agency or self-regulating authority, all without notice to or consent from the Employer. Executive is hereby notified that the immunity provisions in Section 1833 of title 18 of the United States Code provide that an individual cannot be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for any disclosure of a trade secret that is made (1) in confidence to federal, state or local government officials, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and is solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of the law, (2) under seal in a complaint or other

document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, or (3) to Executive’s attorney in connection with a lawsuit for retaliation for reporting a suspected violation of law (and the trade secret may be used in the court proceedings for such lawsuit) as long as any document containing the trade secret is filed under seal and the trade secret is not disclosed except pursuant to court order.

(b) “Confidential Information” as used herein includes, but is not limited to, the Employer and its Affiliates’ trade secrets, proprietary information and confidential information which may include, but is not limited to, technical information, such as methods, processes, formulas, compositions, inventions, product development, product designs, computer programs, special hardware, product hardware, related software development, research projects, improvements, systems methods and other confidential technical data, and business information, such as sales, sales volume, sales methods, sales proposals, customers and prospective customers, identity of key purchasing personnel in the employ of customers and prospective customers, proposals, sales leads, profit margins, service reports, amount or kind of customers’ purchases from the Employer and/or its Affiliates, sources of supply, supply costs, system documentation, pricing data and policies (including general price lists and prices charged to specific customers), and business methods, strategies, production or merchandising systems or plans.

(c) “Affiliates” as used herein includes CPG Building Products LLC, WES, LLC (including UltraLox Technology, LLC), CPG Sub I Corporation, Scranton Products Inc. (including Sanatec Sub I Corporation and Santana Products Inc.), Vycom Corp. and Versatex Building Products LLC and any other entities that are subsidiaries of Parent on or after the date of this Agreement.

6.Assignment of Intellectual Property. Executive assigns to the Employer any rights Executive may have or acquire in the Confidential Information, and in any other intellectual property developed by Executive in whole or in part while employed by Executive, including without limitation any development rights, drawings, patents, copyrights, and the like. Executive agrees that all such intellectual property is the sole property of the Employer and its assigns. Executive irrevocably designates and appoints the Employer and its duly authorized officers and agents as Executive’s agent and attorney in fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to act for and on Executive’s behalf to execute, verify, and file any documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of this assignment, with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Executive.

7.Post-Employment Restrictions. In order to protect the business interests and good will of the Employer and its Affiliates and to protect the Confidential Information, and in consideration of the provisions of this Agreement, Executive covenants and agrees as follows:

(a)Non-solicitation of Customers or Prospective Customers. Executive agrees that during Executive’s employment and for the twenty four (24) month period following Executive’s termination from employment with the Employer (regardless of reason), Executive will not, as an agent or employee, or on behalf of any person or entity, directly or indirectly (1) solicit, attempt to obtain business from, accept business from, do business with or service any Customers or Prospective Customers (except that thisnon-solicitation provision shall not apply if Executive is acting on the Employer’s behalf), (2) induce or attempt to induce any Customer or Prospective Customer to terminate or reduce its relationship or otherwise cease doing business in whole or in part with the Employer or any of its Affiliates or (3) interfere with any relationship, contractual or otherwise, between the Employer or any of its Affiliates and any of its Customers or Prospective Customers.

(i) “Customer” as used herein shall mean any person or entity that procured any products or services from the Employer or any of its Affiliates during the preceding two (2) years.

(ii) “Prospective Customers” as used herein shall mean any person or entity that Executive, Employer or its Affiliates solicited, contacted and/or communicated with on the behalf of the Employer or any of its Affiliates for business purposes during the preceding two (2) years.

(b)Non-solicitation of Employees and Independent Contractors.

(i) Executive agrees that during Executive’s employment with the Employer and for the twenty four (24) month period following termination of Executive’s employment (regardless of reason), Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, induce or attempt to induce any Employee to terminate employment, hire or participate in the hiring of any Employee or interfere with or attempt to disrupt the relationship, contractual or otherwise, between the Employer or any of the Affiliates and any Employee. “Employee” as used herein shall mean any person employed by the Employer or any of its Affiliates or any person who was employed by the Employer or any of its Affiliates during the one (1) year preceding Executive’s termination from employment.

(ii) Executive agrees that during Executive’s employment and for the twenty four (24) month period following Executive’s termination from employment with the Employer (regardless of reason), Executive will not, directly or indirectly, induce or attempt to induce any person or entity who is engaged by the Employer or any of its Affiliates as an independent contractor to terminate or change its relationship with the Employer or its Affiliates.

(c)Non-Competition. Executive agrees that during Executive’s employment with the Employer and for the twenty four (24) month period following termination of Executive’s employment (regardless of reason), Executive shall not engage, directly or indirectly, whether as a consultant, independent contractor, agent, representative, employee, advisor, owner (except in the case of passive ownership of less than five percent (5%) of any publicly traded corporation) or otherwise, alone or in association with any other person, corporation or other entity, in any Competing Business in the United States.

(i) “Competing Business” shall mean any individual, corporation, partnership, business or other entity that provides or attempts to provide any products or services that are the same or similar to any products or services offered, under development or planned to be offered by the Employer or any of its Affiliates. A “Competing Business” shall not include (A) any business of a Successor, in which Employer or its Affiliates are not engaged immediately prior to the date of the transaction by which the Successor assumes this Agreement (the “Succession Date”) or (B) any portion of the business of a Successor to the extent located in a geographic area in which none of Employer or its Affiliates is engaged immediately prior to the Succession Date. For purposes of this paragraph, “Successor” means any successor to the business and assets of Employer.

(ii) Executive acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in this Section extend nationwide. Executive further acknowledges that the geographic limitation in the restriction set forth above is reasonable because the Employer and the Affiliates offer their products and services and/or plan to offer their products and services throughout this geographic market. Executive further covenants and agrees that the geographic scope, length of term and types of activities restricted

(includingnon-competition restrictions) contained in this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Employer and the Affiliates because of the scope of the Employer’s business and its relationship with the Affiliates, which share Confidential Information on aneed-to-know basis. Executive acknowledges that thesenon-competition restrictions are reasonable and necessary and will not prevent Executive from being gainfully employed.

(d)Enforceability. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that one or more of these Post-Employment Restrictions are so broad as to be unenforceable, then such provision is to be reduced in scope or length, as the case may be, to the extent required to make it enforceable. The foregoing is not an admission or evidence that any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement are unreasonable.

(e)Tacking. If Executive violates any of the above Post-Employment Restrictions, the time period for such restriction will be extended by that number of days which equals the aggregate of all days during which at any time any such violations occurred.

(f)Notification by the Employer. Executive consents to the Employer and any of its Affiliates providing notice to any person or entity regarding Executive’s Post-Employment Restrictions under this Agreement.

(g)Forfeiture of Termination Payments.

Executive further covenants and agrees not to enter into any agreement or understanding, either written or oral, in conflict with the provisions of this Agreement.

11.Equitable Relief. Executive stipulates and agrees that any breach of Sections 5, 6, 7 and 21 of this Agreement by Executive will result in immediate and irreparable harm to the Employer and the Affiliates, the amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain, and that the Employer and the Affiliates could not be reasonably or adequately compensated by damages in an action at law. For these reasons, the Employer and the Affiliates shall have the right, without objection from Executive, to obtain such preliminary, temporary or permanent injunctions or restraining orders or decrees as may be necessary to protect the Employer and the Affiliates against, or on account of, any breach by Executive of the provisions of this Agreement without requiring the Employer or the Affiliates to post any bond.
