Limited Warranty on Hip & Ridge Shingle Products

Limitations on the transferability of this warranty are set forth herein.

Introduction

Thank you for your recent purchase of Owens Corning Roofing and Asphalt, LLC (Owens Corning) Hip & Ridge shingle product. We believe we sell the

highest quality and most attractive roofing products and systems available anywhere, and that is why we stand behind them with one of the best

warranties in the industry. We have attempted to write this warranty in clear, plain-English terms, including the limitations and restrictions, so you will fully

understand the warranty we are making to you. However, the terms contained herein are subject to change without notice. If anything in this warranty is

not clear to you, please call us at 1-800-ROOFING or visit our Web site at www.owenscorning.com/roofing.

Who is Covered

To be eligible for this limited warranty, your property must be located in the United States or Canada and you must be the original consumer

purchaser (i.e., the property owner, not the installer or contractor), or the first transferee from the original consumer purchaser (Owner) of one of our

Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle products listed at the end of this warranty, you are entitled to the benefits of this warranty.

What Is Covered

We warrant that your Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle products are free from any manufacturing defects which materially affect their performance

on your roof during the applicable warranty period.

How Long Are You Covered

If you’ve installed Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle products with Owens Corning

Roofing Shingles: The length of the warranty

depends on the type of Owens Corning

shingles installed on your property. See the chart at the end of this warranty for the specific warranty period

that applies to your shingles installed. If the only Owens Corning

Roofing product installed is Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingles

(not in conjunction with Owens Corning

shingles), we warranty that your Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle product is free from manufacturing

defects when manufactured. Owens Corning shall have no liability for any product failures and/or damage caused by improper installation or any other

cause other than manufacturing defects. Should the product prove to be other than as warranted, Owens Corning’s sole and exclusive liability shall be

limited as described within the Compensation section herein.

• What About Wind Resistance

Your Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle products contain asphalt sealant that requires direct warm sunlight for several days (Thermal Sealing) in

order to seal properly. If your Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle products are installed during a period of cool weather, they may not adequately

seal until the season changes or the weather warms, and if your Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle products never receive direct sunlight or are not

exposed to adequate surface temperatures, they may never achieve Thermal Sealing. Prior to Thermal Sealing, your Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge

shingle products are more vulnerable to blow-offs and wind damage. This is the fundamental nature of hip & ridge shingles and not a manufacturing

defect, and we are not responsible for any blow-offs or wind damage that may occur prior to Thermal Sealing having occurred. After your Owens

Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle products have achieved Thermal Sealing, however, they will be covered under this warranty if they experience blow-offs

or wind damage in winds up to the levels listed in the chart at the end of this warranty. HOWEVER, THE COVERAGE AGAINST SHINGLE BLOW-

OFFS OR WIND DAMAGE IS IN EFFECT FOR A PERIOD OF FIFTEEN (15) YEARS, FROM THE ORIGINAL DATE OF INSTALLATION. Owens

Corning will be liable only for the reasonable cost of replacing blown-off Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge Shingle product if applicable (to include

material and labor during the applicable warranty period) and the reasonable cost of manually sealing the unsealed Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge

shingle products remaining on the roof. Please refer to the “Transferability of This Warranty” below for applicable transfer coverage

• What About Algae Resistance

If the Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle product you purchased were not specifically labeled as “Algae Resistant” (AR), then any discoloration

caused by algae is not covered by this warranty as explained in the section below, “What Is Not Covered.” However, if you did purchase Owens

Corning

AR Hip & Ridge shingle products, they are covered for the period described in the chart at the end of this warranty (prorated after the first

year) following the date of installation (“AR Warranty Period”) against brown-black staining caused by growth of blue-green algae (primarily the

cyanobacteria Gloeocapsa magma). We do not cover the effects of other growth such as mold, lichen, and green algae. If brown-black staining

occurs during the AR Warranty Period, you will be entitled to the following remedy:

REMEDY FOR BLUE-GREEN ALGAE GROWTH—If your Owens Corning

AR Hip & Ridge shingle products are discolored by blue-green algae growth

during the first year of the AR Warranty Period, we will cover the cost, including labor (such cost not to exceed the initial cost of the Owens Corning

Hip & Ridge shingle products plus the initial cost of installation), as reasonably determined by Owens Corning to repair, replace or recover the affected

Owens Corning

AR Hip & Ridge shingle products, subject to certain limitations. We will not cover the cost to tear off or dispose of your Owens Corning

AR Hip & Ridge shingle products. For purposes of this Owens Corning

AR Hip & Ridge shingle products warranty, the term “repair” as used above

refers to cleaning or otherwise removing any blue-green algae growth from affected Owens Corning

AR Hip & Ridge shingle products. Decisions

regarding whether your

Owens Corning

AR Hip & Ridge shingle products should be repaired, replaced or recovered will be made solely by Owens Corning.

PRORATION—If your Owens Corning

AR Hip & Ridge shingle products have been installed longer than one (1) year, labor will not be covered and

we will prorate your Compensation (as defined within the compensation section herein) to take into account the number of months of use that you

have enjoyed through the date of your claim. For example: If you make your claim in the last month of the fourth (4th) year of the AR warranty and

the AR warranty length is ten (10) years, our Compensation to you will be reduced by 3/10ths and the reasonable material cost of the affected

Owens Corning

AR Hip & Ridge shingles products (such cost not to exceed 7/10ths of the Owens Corning

AR Hip & Ridge material cost at time

of purchase of the Owens Corning

AR hip & ridge shingle product).
