<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Purpose of the Amendment</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This Amendment No.&nbsp;4 (this &#147;<B>Amendment</B>&#148;) amends and supplements the Solicitation/Recommendation
Statement on Schedule&nbsp;14D-9 (together with the exhibits and annexes thereto and as amended and/or
supplemented from time to time, the &#147;<B>Schedule&nbsp;14D-9</B>&#148;), originally filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the &#147;<B>Commission</B>&#148;) on August&nbsp;13, 2010 by BlueLinx Holdings Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the &#147;<B>Company</B>&#148; or &#147;<B>BlueLinx</B>&#148;) as subsequently amended and restated on September&nbsp;27,
2010 and as further supplemented on October&nbsp;4, 2010 and October&nbsp;6, 2010, relating to the tender
offer by Cerberus ABP Investor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (&#147;<B>CAI</B>&#148;), and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Cerberus Capital Management, L.P. (&#147;<B>Cerberus Capital</B>&#148;), pursuant to
which CAI has offered to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share
of the Company (the &#147;<B>Shares</B>&#148;) not otherwise owned by CAI for $4.00 net per Share in cash, without
interest and less any applicable withholding taxes (the &#147;<B>Offer Price</B>&#148;), upon the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated August&nbsp;2, 2010, as supplemented by the
Second Supplement to Offer to Purchase dated September&nbsp;22, 2010, and the related Letter of
Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively, constitute
the &#147;<B>Offer</B>&#148;). The Offer is described in a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule&nbsp;TO, filed by CAI and
Cerberus Capital with the Commission on August&nbsp;2, 2010 (as amended and/or supplemented from time to
time, and together with the Exhibits thereto, the &#147;<B>Schedule&nbsp;TO</B>&#148;).

that such information is hereby amended to the extent specifically provided herein.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This Amendment is being filed to reflect certain updates as reflected below.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>The following paragraph is inserted after the last paragraph of this subsection:</I>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are aware that on October&nbsp;5, 2010, an individual stockholder of the Company filed a
complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, commencing a putative
class action lawsuit against CAI, the Company and each of the individual members of the Board. The
complaint, styled as <I>Gabriella Centonze v. George Judd, et al. </I>(Case No.&nbsp;651270/2010) seeks, among
other remedies, to preliminarily and permanently enjoin the Offer and Merger. In general, the
complaint alleges, among other things, that the members of the Board breached their fiduciary duty
by, among other things, allegedly failing to disclose material facts regarding the Offer and the
Merger. On October&nbsp;6, 2010, the Court denied the plaintiff&#146;s motion for injunctive relief. The
Company believes this case has no merit.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>The following is inserted at the end of this section</I>:
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Expiration of the Offer</I></B>.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On October&nbsp;19, 2010, CAI announced that the Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City
time, on October&nbsp;18, 2010, without acceptance of the tendered Shares, due to the 90% Condition not
having been satisfied. According to the Schedule&nbsp;TO, a total of approximately 11,321,393 Shares
needed to be tendered and not withdrawn in order to satisfy the 90% Condition. According to CAI&#146;s
announcement, approximately 6,747,593 Shares were validly tendered. CAI and Cerberus Capital have instructed the depositary
for the Offer to promptly return all Shares tendered.
