If special distressing is needed, notify the factory of how the distressing is to be modified. Woodside will make a sample for your approval (required) and notify you of any additional upcharge for the distressing. **All Premiums are charged as a blanket percent to the entire order.

WOOD SPECIES CHARACTERISTICS IMPORTANT: Woodside takes pride in the fact that only top quality materials go into the manufacture of our cabinets. Wood, being a product of nature, varies from one piece to the next - each having its own characteristics. We cannot guarantee that the grain pattern or the natural coloration of the wood will match between individual cabinets. These variations must be accepted as the character of the wood and not as defects. The following is a description of the characteristics of each of the wood species contained in this product line. PAINT GRADE is a closed grain wood, suitable for

painted surfaces only. RED OAK is an open grained hardwood, and the grain pattern can vary from a close vertical pattern to a “wild” arch shaped pattern. When stained, the grain becomes more pronounced and darker than the lighter wood in between the open grained areas. Pinkish color tones. WHITE OAK has the same characteristics as Red Oak,

but has brownish and also gray color tones. WHITE BIRCH is a close grained hardwood which is

noted for wide variances in color tone and grain pattern. Colors vary through off white, pale yellow, and light brown. White Birch is the select sapwood from the Yellow Birch tree. RED BIRCH is a close grained hardwood which is

noted for its reddish-brown color and varying grain pattern. This species looks similar to Cherry wood, but does not darken dramatically when exposed to sunlight. Red Birch is the select heartwood from the Yellow Birch tree. BEECH Steamed Beech is made from treated White Beech. It has an even texture and straight grain and a heartwood which is mellow dark pink color in appearance. MAPLE is an appealing closed grain hardwood that

is creamy white with a slight reddish brown tinge in color. KNOTTY PINE is a porous grained softwood which has

random sized knots, which vary in size from small to large. There may also be dark colored sap steaks and C

sound, unsound(loose), or a knot hole where the knot has fallen out.

CLEAR PINE is a porous grained softwood which may

have some small knots. There may also be dark colored sap streaks and gum spots. Color tone varies from white to pink. SELECT PINE is a porous grained softwood which has

occasional knots. There may also be dark colored sap streaks and gum spots. Color tone varies from white to pink.

CHERRY is a close grained hardwood which will have

small dark spots usually with a small hole in the spot. These are sap pockets where the sap has dried. These holes may appear on the surface and are not filled by Woodside. There may also be irregular dark colored sap streaks and gum spots. Cherry wood varies from a white to a red color naturally. Cherry is noted for its contrasting hues. All of these features add a very distinctive character to its overall charm and beauty.

KNOTTY CHERRY (RUSTIC) All the characteristics

of cherry wood and all of the natural color characteristics of the specie including mineral streaks and pin holes. This grade will not be matched for color and may have both sapwood and heartwood present in varying amounts which gives a more rustic or antique appearance. Features of this rustic wood include random knots varying in size from small to large, which could be

DESIGN ALERT

Heart Pine and Wormy Chestnut

Use solid wood parts wherever possible. Use door on exposed ends. Use door on finished back. Use door as wainscoting. Glass door cabinets and open interiors: Order as another finish on another wood or order as a paint color. True matching veneers are NOT AVAILABLE.

We can order special veneers, however, they are expensive and NOT a perfect match. These veneers will add to the delivery time. Contact Factory for availability and pricing. For Wormy Chestnut we can order English Chestnut veneers. For Heart Pine we can order Quartered Yellow Pine veneers.

ALDER Pale yellow to light reddish brown. Somewhat uniform color throughout. Concentrated modular ray markings parallel to the grain. Pronounced contrast between end and surface grain. LYPTUS is the trade name of a wood made form a

hybrid of two species of Eucalyptus tree, Eucalyptus grandis and Eucalyptus urophylla. In terms of density and strength Lyptus compares favorably with hard maple, but is very similar in appearance to mahogany in color and grain. With a growth cycle of 14-16 years it produces thirty times the volume of comparable rain forest species. A sample of Lyptus weighed 1.4 times as much as mahogany with both samples being the same size. MAHOGANY is a closed grain hardwood that varies

from light reddish or yellow-brown to a rich, dark red. QUARTER SAWN RED OAK Tan to reddish brown.

Limited mineral and pin knots. Heavy to light quarter sawn flakes-sapwood may appear. QUARTER SAWN WHITE OAK Tan to greenish red

WALNUT is a close grained hardwood and is noted for its richness of color which may vary with white or yellow colored streaks in the wood. Note: Available in the Natural Finish Only. KNOTTY BUTTERNUT is the lightest colored member of the Walnut family and is sometimes referred to as

C R A F T - M A I D White Walnut.The sapwood of the Butternut is almost white and usually quite narrow. The heart wood is light brown, often with pinkish tones variegated with different shades of brown. Features of this rustic wood include random knots varying in size from small to large, which could be sound, unsound(loose), or a knot hole where the knot has fallen out. Worm, grub, and pin holes are also a characteristic of Butternut along with black mineral streaks. Butternut is one of the softest hardwoods. HEART PINE is an endangered species of wood that is

being recycled from 150-200 year old Pennsylvania barn beams. It is know for its variations in color from yellow to brown and its ever present sap content, despite its age. Heart Pine can consist of knots that vary in size and shape. Heart Pine is a dense specie of Pine and is therefore much heavier by weight than most other Pine species. Note: Available in Natural Finish Only. WORMY CHESTNUT derives its character from the variety of colors, grain patterns and holes which have been made naturally by the worms that have been in the wood. Some worm holes go through the thickness of the pieces which allow light to pass through the holes. All the marks made naturally by the worms vary in size and shape. Note: Available in the Natural Finish Only.

AN IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT WOODS & FINISHES LIGHT COLORS AND WOOD GRAIN

Dealers must be aware that light colors permit all the natural variations of grain and color difference of light and dark wood to show in the finished product. Natural finishes are particularly prone to show extremes of light and dark colors of the wood.

change, Woodside cannot be held responsible for color match. It is only the dealer’s ability to guard against excessive change and the sales explanation that will prevent unacceptable conditions later in the sale. Woodside has no control over these sales tools and aids after they leave the factory. Therefore, Woodside cannot take the responsibility for sales that do not match any of the dealer’s samples. SPECIAL COLOR MATCHING

Woodside takes great pride in producing the custom finished requested by our dealers and designers. Woodside has produced thousands of custom finishes in recent years, in both paints and stains. A swatch, chip or otherwise acceptable sample of the special color to be matched must accompany the dealer’s order. Woodside reserves the right to refuse to produce any special colors that require chemical formulas or procedures not consistent with Woodside’s standard finishing process. All special colors are contingent upon receipt of such colors from our suppliers. Woodside will submit a color sample to the dealer for customer approval (3 samples maximum). The color sample must be dated and signed by the customer indicating that the color has been approved and then returned to Woodside as a color standard for manufacturing. Please recognize that there will be a variation from the actual production to the color standard due to normal variations in the wood used in the sample and the wood used in production. Also, Glazing, Distressing, etc. have additional premiums that must be added. No order will be entered into the factory production schedule until the special color sample has been approved and returned to the factory. Delivery time is determined after the approved sample has been received at the factory.

SHOWROOM COLOR SAMPLES

Whenever possible, color chips, swatches, door samples, etc. should be mounted permanently and displayed in an area of your showroom that is void of natural light and extreme heating conditions. The same conditions are required of full kitchen displays and all other sample materials. Due to age, light, heat and abusive treatment in general, the original color or shade of these sales aids will have a natural tendency to darken or fade over a period of time. This is a normal and natural reaction and should be part of the sales presentation when explaining hand staining and wiping which brings out the beauty and character of the various wood species used by Woodside. Due to a multitude of acceptable reasons in color C

Please use the following steps to order Special Finishes: 1. Send an existing sample of the finish requested whenever possible to the attention of The Misc. Department. 2. Pictures can give us a starting point if a sample is not available. Note: Pictures tend to have many shades of color due to the lighting and printing process. 3. If Paint, choose paint colors form the Sherwin Williams color fan. If Sherwin Williams does not have an existing color that is acceptable, send a color sample or color swatch to use as a color match.

We realize that it may take more than one attempt to develop a sample that will be accepted by your customer. Some minor adjustments may need to be made to the color, the technique or the sheen. We will allow three attempts for each $1029 list color match charge (excluding aged finishes). However, there will still be a per block charge that remains the same. $15 net-Stain Block Sample $25 net-Paint Block Sample $75 net-Paint Block Sample when special paint is ordered from our supplier to produce the sample. If a 4th block is required an additional $1029 (excluding aged finishes) list special color match charge will be added. We continue to look forward to fulfilling all your needs for custom finish colors in both stain and paint finishes. Note: Woodside will not work with customer supplied materials. i.e. solid lumber, veneers, or finishing products Nature provides all woods in a wide variety of interesting grains and beauty marks. Quality furniture should and does preserve this delicate graining and tone variation in keeping with its natural characteristics.

C

Modern furniture manufacturers make every effort to blend and match their product, at the same time keeping in mind the beauty of nature’s infinite variety. The subtle variations in tone and grain enhance the overall elegance of your Woodside kitchen and prove, once again, the care and workmanship that goes into making this fine product. For the above reasons, Natural, Light and Painted finishes require a disclaimer letter, signed by the customer and the dealer to accompany the written order. Note: Light colors include – Bleached & Limed, French Country Light, Frost and Misty White. Disclaimer letters can be found at the back of this section. Aged Finishes

Color matches required for aged finishes are charged $2215 list. All Woodside samples more than one year old are obsolete. Therefore, any Woodside sample more than one year old shall be considered a special aged color match. A disclaimer is required for Aged Finishes with the order. If a door sample or color block is obsolete, the dealer is required to order a new finish sample whether it be a door sample or a color block. In the case of an aged display, the dealer is required to update the display by ordering a fresh showroom display. No cabinets will be refinished by the factory except where special arrangements have been made. Cabinet Finishing

*Clear primed exterior/ natural maple interior - no additional charge *White primed exterior/ natural maple interior - add 5% **Unfinished (interior and exterior) sanded only for finishing by others - less 5% *Note: With clear prime and white primed only cabinetry, it is recommended that the product be sanded and reprimed in the field, with a primer compatible with the paint being used. **Note: Unfinished product requires a disclaimer letter signed by the customer and dealer to accompany the written order. Woodside will not warrant unfinished product against warpage, nor will it warrant the product for stains or paints applied by others. Disclaimer letters can be found at the back of this section.

Columbia is now in the process of converting all of its standard hardwood plywood production to produce formaldehyde-free panels called PureBond™. Cost-competitive with the standard urea formaldehyde (UF)made hardwood plywood, Columbia’s PureBond formula is derived naturally, then enhanced with a proprietary resin, giving it particularly strong bonding and water-resistance qualities. And better yet it enables Columbia to completely eliminate formaldehyde from its standard veneer-core decorative panel production. With a growing focus from the architectural community on indoor air quality, Columbia’s formaldehyde-free decorative panels are also compliant with the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards, earning one point for LEED’s EQ Credit 4.4 for Low-Emitting Materials: Composite Wood. And PureBond panels also eliminate formaldehyde from both press and product emissions, which is good news for everyone, including our employees. C

What is Columbia's new PureBond adhesive? It's a formaldehyde-free, soy protein-based adhesive, enhanced with a proprietary resin formulation manufactured by Hercules, Inc. The adhesive was developed cooperatively by Columbia, Hercules and Oregon State University's College of Foresty over the course of several years. Oregon State originally came up with the technology and owns all three patents; OSU has granted all licensing rights to Hercules, and Hercules has granted exclusive sub-licensing rights to Columbia for the manufacture of hardwood plywood, veneer and flooring. Those rights are good for the life of the patent.

________________________________________________________________ The Sherwin-Williams Company Chemical Coatings Wood Facility 1510A East Columbia Street Allentown, PA 18109 November 14, 2005 CRAFTMAID KITCHENS 501 S. 9th Street Reading, PA 19602 RE: KemVar® LF Water White Conversion Varnish

As we discussed, in today's market the recent trend has been to provide formaldehyde free products to the manufacturing side. Many will refer to the products as formaldehyde free, where as they are not totally free, but rather so low of an amount that the government does not require listing on a MSDS. Thus some will refer to as "free". Previously I furnished the Product Data Sheet (CC-F56) and the Material Safety Data Sheet for the SherWood KemVar LF Water White Conversion Varnish. This is our offering to the Kitchen Cabinet, Office & Institutional Furniture, and other Markets requiring a "formaldehyde free" product. As discussed this is one of the latest technologies being offered to the Kitchen Cabinet Market. The product has many attributes as a finish. The product is designed as a low formaldehyde product (level so low as not reportable on a MSDS). It is VOC (volatile organic compound) compliant and HAPS (hazardous air pollution substance) free. This water-white product has UV Absorber added for nonyellowing characteristics. The product is designed as a self-seal system, which means the product is used as its own sealer. It should be used in conjunction with other formaldehyde free products such as S64 Wiping Stain, S61 Dye Stain, S66 Glazes, or like, in order to maintain a formaldehyde free system. It is not recommended to use this product as a topcoat over vinyl sealer, varnish sealer, pigmented conversion varnish, pigmented vinyl, or other catalyzed systems unless they are specifically "formaldehyde free products". These products currently in use have reportable formaldehyde content. Regardless of the system used there is no guarantee that some type of allergic reaction will not occur. Although we are targeting formaldehyde in the finish at time of application, there are many residual elements within the compound that might cause some type of reaction depending on the individual. The best means of defense is to allow open time for the wood product to out-gas and cure. Typically we look at a 30 day time period for full cure, dependent upon curing temperature, humidity level, number of coats, and so forth. I hope this explanation answers any questions that you might have. Please contact me directly if you should have any specific inquiries. Sincerely,

Joe Joseph E. Schreck Chemical Coatings Sales Group Representative Craft-Maid 2005-11-14 KVLFWW

C R A F T - M A I D CABINET CARE DUSTING

Like fine furniture, wood cabinets should be dusted periodically, depending on the amount of the particular matter that may have accumulated. Always dust with a polish-moistened cloth; dry dusting may scratch the surface. It is a good practice to follow the grain of wood while dusting -- wiping against the grain could cause scratches to appear if dust contains grit. In a home or office, residues such as cooking vapors, cigarette smoke or bodily oils might accumulate on the finished wood surfaces. For these types of residues, simply use a damp cloth with a small amount of furniture cleaner. Apply the appropriate amount of pressure with the cloth to remove residue from the area. Remember to select cleaning cloths that are not made of coarse fabrics since they may scratch the finish. Cloths made of cotton or flannel are soft and absorbent while synthetic materials tend to be the opposite. New furniture, including kitchen cabinets, require a period of curing to take place, approximately six months, so that the finish can achieve its maximum performance properties. Avoid placing excessive weight on an unprotected area or dragging items across the surface. CLEANING

Avoid placing damp objects such as towels, flower pots, glasses, etc. on cabinet surfaces without a moisture barrier such as a coaster or tray. It is also a good practice not to place hot items such as pots, pans, plates or cups on a surface without coasters. HUMIDITY

WHEN CABINETS ARE INSTALLED IN A ROOM, THEY WILL HAVE TO ADJUST TO THE HUMIDITY PRESENT. THE IDEAL HUMIDITY LEVEL FOR YOUR HOME SHOULD BE 45% TO 55% HUMIDITY AT 70° 70 F. CONTROLLING THE ENVIRONMENT WILL HELP PREVENT WARPING AND SPLITTING OF THE CABINET COMPONENTS AND PREVENT CRAZING OF THE FILM. EXTREME VARIATIONS IN TEMPERATURE IS A VARIABLE THAT ALSO NEEDS TO BE CONTROLLED. EFFECTS OF MOISTURE IN WOOD

*ANY SOLID WOOD PRODUCT WILL EXPAND OVER TIME AS MOISTURE AND CLIMATE CONDITIONS CHANGE. *EFFECTS OF MOISTURE (ADDITION TO/LOSS OF) MAY INCLUDE PANEL EXPANSION, PANEL CONTRACTION, JOINT EXPANSION OR OPENING, STILE BOWING AND STILE/RAIL EXPANSION.

The most commonly used cleaning agents are water based. They contain degreasing agents as well as clean- *TO MINIMIZE MOISTURE EXPANSION OF WOOD ing agents that bring beauty to the wood. Products PRODUCTS, ALL INSTALLATIONS, ESPECIALLY such as Murphy’s Oil Soap should be used frequently. WINTER AND VACATION HOMES SHOULD MAINTAIN It will not leave a residue on the finish. SOME FORM OF CLIMATE CONTROL, EVEN IN OFF SEASON. Woodside WILL NOT WARRANT WOOD PROTECTION A key ingredient to maintain a finish is to eliminate PRODUCTS INSTALLED IN UNCONTROLLED potentially damaging environmental elements such as ENVIRONMENTS. MISUSE IS SUBJECTING CABINETS TO sunlight, moisture, heat and humidity. UNCONTROLLED ENVIRONMENTS. ULTRAVIOLET RAY EXPOSURE

When the placement of cabinets is being planned, consideration should be given so the furniture is not in direct sunlight. Over exposure of ultraviolet rays can impact adversely on the wood finishes. A good practice to follow when exposure to light cannot be avoided is to periodically rearrange articles (i.e. desk pads, vases, etc.) on finished wood to prevent sun bleaching. SPILLS

When spills occur they should be blotted up as quickly as possible before the liquids penetrate the surface.

The graph above indicates how much a 12" wide panel of various species can expand as a result of an increase in moisture content from 5% to 14%. For instance, the chart reveals that a Red Oak panel 12" wide could expand by more than a 1/4".

How moisture levels effect movement in wood Wood is a hygroscopic material, meaning that it will absorb or release moisture until it is in equilibrium with the moisture in the air. This is true of all wood, whether it is raw or finished. Finishing will tend to slow down this process, but will not eliminate it. When wood is exposed to a constant humidity, it will achieve a constant moisture content (MC). This MC numerical value is called the equilbrium moisture content (EMC). Wood will increase in width and thickness as it increases in MC, and will decrease in width and thickness as it decreases in MC. The above chart shows how the moisture content of wood increases with an increase in relative humidity. Tips For Avoiding Moisture Related Problems * Door expansion experienced prior to installation on the cabinet box will usually recede once the kitchen has been installed in an air conditioned environment. For this reason, we do not recommend trimming or "shaving" the edges of doors, because once they return to original sizing, the doors may appear too narrow. *Unfinished doors exposed to humid conditions will absorb moisture rapidly and expand in as little as 2 days. Woodside recommends unfinished product be finished in their non-expanded state as soon after delivery as possible. *Woodside's doors feature one of the most durable joint construction methods available. However, panel expansion in high humidity climates will put pressure on any joint, regardless of construction method. Customers must not glue, pin,staple or secure the panel to the framing on any wood door or joint failure will result. Woodside will not be held liable in these instances.

Woods & Finishes NATURAL WOOD FINISH DISCLAIMER

Job Number

Item Number

Description

We are pleased with your desire to purchase a Woodside kitchen in a NATURAL finish. While NATURAL finishes produce a truly beautiful product, they are quite different from other cabinet finishes you are familiar with. Because we desire customers who are completely satisfied, we just want to be sure that you do fully understand the nature of these differences. Therefore, it is important to realize the following: The beauty of natural finished cabinetry really comes from the true natural qualities of wood itself. Woodside cabinetry utilizes only select solid hardwoods and hardwood veneers. Natural wood, though, varies in color from shades of white, red, black, even green in areas. Mineral streaks may be visible too where parts of the tree absorbed minerals differently in one area than another. Grain and apparent texture will vary from “even” to absolutely “wild”. These natural variations will be present throughout your kitchen. They will occur on adjacent cabinets, between pairs of doors and/or drawers on the same cabinet, even within the same panel. These same variations may also be seen on the edges of hardwood veneered doors when these edges are exposed in a natural finish. We call your attention to these characteristics of natural finished cabinetry because the effect of these variations in an entire kitchen may be different from what you visualize now in viewing a smaller display or finish sample. The variations are broad, but they are the beauty of natural wood. We mention these conditions because neither Woodside Kitchens, Inc. and/or your Woodside dealer can be held responsible for the type or degree of variations you may actually experience in your particular kitchen. Accordingly, Woodside Kitchens, Inc. will only accept orders for NATURAL finished cabinetry accompanied by the customer’s and the dealer’s signatures on this letter of agreement. I have read the foregoing and find the true variations of natural wood mentioned desirable. As such, I agree to not hold Woodside Kitchens, Inc. and/or the Woodside dealer noted below responsible in the event these natural wood characteristics are later found by me to be less desirable than I had expected.

It is important to realize the following: We at Woodside Kitchens, Inc. will produce and finish our products using what we consider only the best in materials and workmanship. The beauty of paint is available, but we want to stress the need to understand the potential problems you may experience. Woodside Kitchens, Inc. uses only the highest quality of solid hardwoods and hardwood veneers. However, all wood has characteristics of its own classifications. Natural expansion and contraction is one of these unique items. The wood in a sense “breathes” depending on the humidity level in the environment. The movement of these woods could at times become visible at joints of door and frame members. We call your attention to these conditions realizing that a potential problem might arise. As a result, neither Woodside Kitchens, Inc. nor the dealer can warrant its products with respect to these characteristics of painted finishes.

Woods & Finishes EFFECTS OF HUMIDITY AND MOISTURE IN WOOD DISCLAIMER

Job Number

Item Number

Description

HUMIDITY: Wood is a hygroscopic material, meaning that it will take up or release moisture until it is in equilibrium with the moisture in the air. This is true of all wood, if it is raw (unfinished) or finished. Finishing will tend to slow down this process, but will not eliminate it. As the moisture content in wood increases it expands, and when it is decreased it shrinks. This movement is thirty-two times greater across the grain than it is with the grain. All climates, especially humid climates (Southern Gulf Coast, Long Island and New England costal communities) are susceptible to expansion due to moisture. Non air-conditioned homes, regardless of location, are very susceptible to expansion due to moisture and high humidity. During winter, houses should maintain some form of climate control, even in the off season. Controlling the environment will help prevent warping and splitting of the cabinet component parts. The ideal humidity level for wooden cabinetry should be 45% to 55% at 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Extreme variations in temperature is a variable that needs to be controlled. Woodside's doors feature one of the most durable joint construction methods available. However, panel expansion in high humidity environments and contraction in low humidity environments will put pressure on any joint, regardless of the construction method. Woodside will assume no responsibility for improper storage, handling, or installation of its products in high or low moisture / humidity conditions. Damaged Woodside products, due to improper humidity, will not be replaced under the standard Woodside guarantee, and will not be replaced at no cost to the homeowner or the dealer. Storage: If any cabinet needs to be stored temporarily, the proper humidity and temperature conditions are equally as important as controlling the proper environment in the home. Please have both the selling dealer and the homeowner sign this disclaimer acknowledging they understand that any cabinet parts including doors and mouldings will not be remade if damaged due to cabinetry kept in an improper humidity environment.
