Your Roofing System must cover the entire structure and be installed over a ventilated roof deck. Incomplete roofs installed on a portion of a building do not qualify, nor do roofs installed over non-ventilated decks. Your Roofing System must be installed according to application requirements published by Owens Corning and in accordance with local building code requirements, which are in effect at the time of installation. 3. Your Roofing System must be installed over a clean roof deck per Owens Corning requirements with all existing roofing material and debris removed, including, but not limited to, felt, ice, and water membrane, raised nails, flashing materials for chimneys, skylights, soil pipe boots, ridge and off-ridge vents, etc. Repairs must be made to any damaged areas, such as loose or cracked mortar on chimneys or rotten wood decking. 4.

Owens Corning® Self-Adhered Ice & Water Barrier products. Qualifying Ice & Water Barrier products include WeatherLock®, Titanium®, or RhinoRoof®. ii. Owens Corning® Starter Shingle Products. Owens Corning® VentSure® Ventilation products: If a VentSure® product is used, it should be part of a balanced air ventilation system consisting of both functional intake and exhaust ventilation products. If a VentSure® Intake Vent AND VentSure® Exhaust Vent are both used, this will count as one (1) of the four (4) requirements. This warranty excludes VentSure® Off-Ridge Exhaust Vents. 5. New metal flashing(s) and drip edge must be installed, counter flashing is required where applicable, and all required details and flashings must be correctly installed as per Owens Corning requirements and in compliance with the listed Eligibility Requirements. Exceptions to the “Eligibility Requirements for This Warranty” section may be made at the sole discretion of Owens Corning and must be approved in writing by Owens Corning prior to Roofing System installation. WHAT IS COVERED We warrant that your Owens Corning® Roofing System is free from any manufacturing defects that (1) materially affect their performance on your roof during the TRU PROtection® period or that (2) cause leaks during the balance of the applicable warranty period after the TRU PROtection® coverage period has expired. (To determine the length of the TRU PROtection® coverage period and the balance of the applicable warranty period, please see “How Long Are You Covered” and the “Limited Warranty Information Table” at the end of this warranty.) This warranty applies only to those shingles purchased after January 1, 2023 and before the date a later warranty applicable to the shingles comes into effect. This warranty does not cover non-Owens Corning® roofing components, such as flashing, fasteners, pipe boots, and wood decking. WORKMANSHIP TERMS This warranty covers workmanship for a period of time as described in the terms below. Workmanship includes any defective installation of the Owens Corning® Roofing System that causes leaks or materially affects the performance of your roof. The Workmanship Terms are only valid if the Owens Corning® Roofing System is installed by a Platinum or Preferred Contractor, per the terms and conditions of the Preferred Protection Limited Warranty requirements. Failure to meet the Eligibility Requirements for this warranty or improperly registered warranties is not covered.PREFERRED PROTECTION WORKMANSHIP PERIOD During the Preferred Protection Workmanship Period, if any part of your Roofing System is found to have an application defect or there are application errors in your Roofing System that cause leaks or materially affect the performance of your roof, Owens Corning will arrange to have your roof repaired or recovered or, at its sole option, will provide you with replacement roofing products and issue compensation (COMPENSATION as defined below) for the full reasonable cost of labor and other materials to repair or recover your roof, including flashings at valleys, dormers, chimneys, and plumbing vents. Failure to install adequate ventilation is not an application error of your Owens Corning® Products. Ventilation can be limited by the design and configuration of existing structures. The costs of labor to tear off some or all of your Roofing System and disposal are included, if necessary, to repair your roof. Preferred Protection Workmanship Period is outlined in the “Limited Warranty Information Table.” NOTE: First 2 years. If your claim arises out of an application error that is discovered or discoverable within the first 2 years after installation, it is the obligation of the Platinum or Preferred Contractor who installed your Roofing System to make all necessary repairs. In the event that your roofing contractor is unable or unwilling to perform these repairs, Owens Corning will arrange to have your roof repaired. HOW LONG ARE YOU COVERED ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES APPLICABLE TO YOUR SHINGLES OR ROOFING SYSTEM ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE TRU PROTECTION® COVERAGE PERIOD APPLICABLE TO SUCH PRODUCTS, AS PROVIDED BY THIS WARRANTY, UNLESS A SHORTER PERIOD IS PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. SOME STATES OR PROVINCES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. The length of your warranty depends on the type of Owens Corning® Shingles you purchased. See the “Limited Warranty Information Table” at the end of this warranty for the specific warranty period that applies to your shingles. If you make a claim under this warranty that results in a repair of your roof, this warranty will be unaffected, as long as the repair is done by a Platinum or Preferred Contractor, andwill continue to provide you with coverage on your entire Roofing System provided that Owens Corning® Products are used in the repairs. However, if you make a claim that results in your entire Roofing System being removed and replaced, this warranty will be void. If new Owens Corning® Shingles are installed, you will then receive an Owens Corning® Standard Product Limited Warranty. However, if you once again install an entire Roofing System, you will be eligible to purchase a new Preferred Protection Limited Warranty (or other premium warranty), as long as the new Roofing System is installed by a Platinum or Preferred Contractor per the “Eligibility Requirements for This Warranty.” 1. TRU PROTECTION® PERIOD From the installation of the shingles through the TRU PROtection® Coverage period of this warranty, Owens Corning will compensate you to either repair, replace, or recover products that Owens Corning determines are defective, including the cost of tear-off and disposal subject to certain limitations. TRU PROtection® period excludes workmanship coverage. See the “Limited Warranty Information Table” at the end of the warranty for specific TRU PROtection® periods that apply to the Owens Corning® Shingles you have purchased. Owens Corning reserves the right to arrange directly for the repair or replacement of your products instead of compensating you directly. This compensation is limited as follows: a. If Owens Corning decides to replace the shingles, Owens Corning will compensate you only for the cost of replacement Owens Corning® Shingles and the labor directly required to replace the defective shingles, both as reasonably determined by Owens Corning. b. If Owens Corning decides to repair or recover the shingles, Owens Corning will compensate you only for the cost of the labor directly required to repair or recover the defective shingles as reasonably determined by Owens Corning. c. TRU PROtection® coverage period does not apply to Wind and Algae coverage. Please see “What About Wind Resistance” and “What About Algae Resistance” portions of this warranty for applicable coverage. Under this Preferred Protection Limited Warranty, all Owens Corning® Products (see “Eligibility Requirements for This Warranty”), with the exception of VentSure® Off-Ridge Exhaust Vents, share the TRU PROtection® period concurrent with the shingle installed. At the expiration of the TRU PROtection® period, all products revert to the coverage specified by their standard warranties. Under the Preferred Protection Limited Warranty, if a cut Owens Corning® Supreme® Shingle is used instead of Owens Corning® Hip & Ridge Shingles, the warranty and TRU PROtection® period for the Supreme® Shingle is 15 years. The Owens Corning® Supreme® Shingles do not assume the warranty term for shingles used on the balance of the roof, unless the entire roof is installed with Supreme® Shingles. 2. PRORATED PERIOD Once the TRU PROtection® period of this warranty has expired, the prorated period will begin. During this prorated period, we will provide prorated compensation of the cost of the defective Owens Corning® products, but no other costs will be covered, and we will take into account the number of full years of use you have enjoyed from the original installation date through the date of your claim, and reduce the amount of our compensation to you accordingly. We will prorate the amount of our compensation to you to adjust for the number of years you have enjoyed from the original installation date through the date of your claim. For example: If you have a 25-year warranty and you make your claim anytime in the 15th year of the warranty, our compensation to you will be reduced by 14/25ths of the Owens Corning® Product cost at the time of purchase. For lifetime shingle coverage (for as long as Owner owns the home on which the Roofing System is installed), see the “Limited Lifetime Shingle Proration^ Table.” Owens Corning reserves the right to arrange directly for the repair or replacement of your products instead of compensating you directly. 3. OTHER TYPES OF STRUCTURES The coverage for all Owens Corning® Shingles offered by this warranty depends on the structure on which the shingles are installed and the owner of the structure. Lifetime coverage for all Owens Corning® Shingles applies only to single-family detached homes where the owner of the roof is the resident occupying the home. In the instance of shingles purchased or installed upon property owned by others (for example, corporations, governmental agencies, partnerships, trusts, religious organizations, schools, condominiums, homeowners’ associations, or cooperative housing arrangements) or installed on any other structures (for example, on apartment buildings or any other type of building or premises not used by individual homeowners as their residence), the warranty period for Oakridge® Shingles will be 40 years, all other lifetime shingles will be 50 years from the original installation date of the shingles, and the TRU PROtection® period will be 20 years. Please see the “Limited Lifetime Shingle Proration^ Table” below for the prorated formula after TRU PROtection® coverage expires for lifetime shingles. Limited Lifetime Shingle Proration^ Table STRUCTURE/ OWNER TRU PROTECTION® PERIOD YEARS 1–50 PRORATED PERIOD YEARS 51 AND BEYOND Single-family detached homes 100%++ 20% STRUCTURE/ OWNER YEARS 1-20 YEARS 21-40 OAKRIDGE SHINGLES ONLY YEARS 21-50 ALL OTHER LIFETIME SHINGLES Other types of structures 100%++ 50% reduced by 2.5% each year thereafter^ 60% reduced by 2% each year thereafter^ For as long as Owner owns home. ^ Proration is calculated annually, based on the original installation date.

EXCEPTIONS All Owens Corning Obligations of Compensation under this warranty, whether for repair, replacement, recovery, or refunding a prorated portion of the original purchase price of the defective Owens Corning® Products, are subject to the limitations provided by this warranty. Owens Corning will not compensate for the removal and replacement of solar panels or other rooftop equipment. 5. WHAT ABOUT WIND RESISTANCE Your shingles contain asphalt sealant that requires direct warm sunlight for several days (“Thermal Sealing”) in order to seal properly. If your shingles are installed during a period of cool weather, they may not adequately seal until the weather warms, and if your shingles never receive direct sunlight or are not exposed to adequate surface temperatures, they may never achieve Thermal Sealing. Prior to your shingles achieving Thermal Sealing, your shingles are more vulnerable to blow-offs and wind damage. This is the fundamental nature of shingles and not a manufacturing defect, and we are not responsible for any blow-offs or wind damage that might occur prior to Thermal Sealing having occurred. After your shingles have achieved Thermal Sealing, however, they will be covered under this warranty if they experience blow-offs or wind damage in winds (including gusts) up to the levels and for the period from the original installation date (“Wind Warranty Period”), listed in the “Limited Warranty Information Table” at the end of this warranty. HOWEVER, THE COVERAGE AGAINST SHINGLE BLOW-OFFS OR WIND DAMAGE IS IN EFFECT FOR A PERIOD OF 15 YEARS FOR LIFETIME SHINGLES AND 12 YEARS FOR SUPREME® SHINGLES, FROM THE ORIGINAL DATE OF INSTALLATION. Owens Corning will be liable only for the reasonable cost of replacing blown-off shingles and Owens Corning® Hip & Ridge Shingles, if applicable (to include material and labor during the applicable TRU PROtection® warranty period), and the reasonable cost of manually sealing the unsealed shingles remaining on the roof. Owens Corning is not responsible where the damage or blow-offs are caused by damage to the underlying structure. 6. WHAT ABOUT ALGAE RESISTANCE If the shingles that 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 “What Is Not Covered.” However, if you did purchase AR shingles, they are covered for the period described in the “Limited Warranty Information Table” at the end of this warranty following the date of installation (“AR Warranty Period”) against brown- black staining caused by growth of cyanobacteria Gloeocapsa magma algae. To be eligible for 25-year AR coverage, you must use one of the following Owens Corning® Hip & Ridge Shingles: Berkshire®, DecoRidge®, DuraRidge®, ImpactRidge®, ProEdge®, or RIZERidge®. 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: a. Non-Prorated Period — From the installation of the shingles until fifteen (15) years after the date of installation, we will compensate you for the cost, including labor (such cost not to exceed the cost of the AR shingles plus the cost of installation), as reasonably determined by Owens Corning, to repair, replace, or recover the affected AR shingles. For purposes of this AR shingle warranty, the term “repair” as used above refers to cleaning or otherwise removing any algae growth from affected AR shingles. Decisions regarding whether your AR shingles should be repaired, replaced, or recovered will be made solely by Owens Corning. b. Prorated Period — Once the non-prorated coverage period for algae resistance (as described above) has expired, the prorated period will begin. During this prorated period, we will provide compensation limited to a prorated amount of the cost of the affected AR shingles. No labor or other costs will be covered during the prorated period, and we will take into account the number of full years of use that you have enjoyed from the original installation date through the date of your claim, and reduce the amount of our compensation to you accordingly. For example: If you purchased a shingle with a 25-year AR warranty period, and you make your claim anytime in the 16th year of the warranty, our compensation to you will be the amount of the cost of the affected Owens Corning® AR Shingle Products reduced by 16/25ths of the cost at the time of purchase of the affected AR Shingle Products. c. ****If a qualifying Owens Corning® manufactured Hip & Ridge shingle is not used, the AR warranty period is reduced from 25 to 10 years, and the non-prorated period will be 1 year. d. See Limited Warranty Information table below for applicable AR product coverage. NOTE: In some coastal areas and/or areas with limited rainfall, copper released by algae-resistant shingles can cause excessive corrosion to aluminum gutters. In these regions, Owens Corning recommends using vinyl gutters and will not be liable for
