Standard Product Limited Warranty on Roofing Shingles.

This warranty includes limitations on its transferability.

2. Prorated Period—Once the Tru PROtection

coverage period for the

Owens Corning

shingles purchased has expired, the prorated period

will begin. During this prorated period, we will provide prorated

compensation of the cost of the defective Owens Corning

shingles

but no other costs (for example, the cost of labor) will be covered. We

will prorate the amount of our compensation to you to adjust for the

number of years of use 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

shingle cost at the time of purchase. For lifetime shingle

coverage (for as long as Owner owns the home on which the shingles

are 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 on property owned by

others (for example, corporations, governmental agencies, partnerships,

trusts, religious organizations, schools, condominiums, homeowners'

association, or cooperative housing arrangements) or installed on any

other structures (for example, apartment buildings or any other type

of building or premises not used by individual homeowners as their

residence), the warranty period for lifetime shingles will be 40 years from

the original installation date of the shingles, and the Tru PROtection

coverage period will be five years. For lifetime shingle coverage (for as

long as Owner owns the home on which the shingles are installed), see

the “Limited Lifetime

∆

Shingle Proration^ Table”.

4. Exceptions—All of Owens Corning’s obligations of compensation under

this warranty (whether for repair, replacement, recovery or refunding

a prorated portion of the cost of the defective shingles) are subject to

the limitations provided by this warranty. Owens Corning will not provide

compensation for any underlayment, metalwork, flashings or other related

work, and we will not compensate for the cost to remove or dispose of

your shingles.

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 season changes

or 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,

THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU

MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO

STATE OR PROVINCE TO PROVINCE.

Introduction

Thank you for your recent purchase of Owens Corning

roofing shingles

manufactured by Owens Corning Roofing and Asphalt, LLC (“Owens Corning”).

We believe we manufacture the highest quality and most attractive shingles

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, so you will fully understand the warranty we are making

to you. If anything in this warranty is not clear to you, please call us at

1-800-ROOFING or visit our web site at www.roofing.owenscorning.com.

Who Is Covered

To be entitled to the benefits of this warranty: (1) your property must be

located in the United States or Canada and (2) you must be either (a)

the original consumer purchaser (the property owner, not the installer or

contractor) of one of our shingle products listed in the “Limited Warranty

Information Table” at the end of this warranty or (b) the first person to

whom the original purchaser transfers this warranty along with ownership of

the structure on which the shingles are installed (either person described in

(a) or (b), "Owner"). (For detail regarding transferring this warranty, please see

“Transferability of This Warranty” below.)

What Is Covered

We warrant that your Owens Corning

shingles are free from any

manufacturing defects that (1) materially affect the shingles’ performance

on your roof during the Tru PROtection

coverage period or (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” below and the “Limited Warranty

Information Table” at the end of this warranty.)

This warranty applies only to those shingles purchased after January 1, 2017 and

before the date a later warranty applicable to the shingles comes into effect.

How Long Are You Covered

ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES APPLICABLE TO YOUR SHINGLES

ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE TRU PROTECTION

COVERAGE PERIOD APPLICABLE TO SUCH SHINGLES, 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.

1. Tru PROtection

Coverage Period—From the installation of the shingles

through the Tru PROtection

coverage period, Owens Corning will

compensate you for the cost, as reasonably determined by Owens Corning, to

repair, replace or recover the defective shingles. 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” below for applicable coverage.
