On February 28, 2012, Ramsey A. Frank, a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Builders FirstSource, Inc. (the “Company”) notified the Chairman of the Board that, in connection with his resignation as a Managing Director of JLL Partners, Inc., he was resigning from the Board, including his position as a member of the Board’s Compensation Committee, effective immediately.

The Board appointed Daniel Agroskin to serve as a director to fill the vacancy on February 28, 2012. At that time, the Board also appointed Brett Milgrim, who has served on the Board since 1999, to fill the vacancy on the Compensation Committee.

Mr. Agroskin is a Managing Director of JLL Partners, Inc. (“JLL”), which he joined in August 2005. Prior to joining JLL, Mr. Agroskin worked at JP Morgan Partners, a private equity investment firm, and in Merrill Lynch’s Mergers and Acquisitions Group. Mr. Agroskin is also a director on the boards of PGT, Inc. and Patheon, Inc. He was previously a director on the board of PharmaNet Development Group, Inc. until July 2011. Mr. Agroskin holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Stanford University and a Master of Business Administration degree from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

Information with respect to the Stockholders’ Agreement (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”) entered into between JLL Building Holdings, LLC, which is an affiliate of JLL, and Warburg Pincus Private Equity IX, L.P. on June 22, 2010 has previously been reported in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 14, 2011, File Number 0-51357 (the “2011 Proxy Statement”), under the caption “Ownership of Securities – Stockholders’ Agreement Between JLL Building Holdings, LLC and Warburg Pincus Private Equity IX, L.P.” The Stockholders’ Agreement includes provisions relating to the election of the Corporation’s directors. Information with respect to related person transactions involving the Company and JLL and its affiliates has previously been reported in the 2011 Proxy Statement, under the caption “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.”

On February 24, 2012, Brad Leist, the Company’s Vice President, Controller, and principal accounting officer, resigned to pursue other opportunities.
