Directors of Ameron International Corporation (NYSE:AMN&#151;News) today issued the following statement regarding the reports of proxy advisory services Egan-Jones Proxy Services (Egan-Jones) and Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) on the
Barington Capital&#146;s proxy solicitation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">&#147;Egan-Jones clearly recognized that Barington has offered no positive ideas, plans or
strategies to build value at Ameron. While ISS has a track record of supporting dissidents, we believe its analysis is flawed and not in the best interest of our stockholders.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In its analysis, Egan-Jones commented: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">&#147;We believe that the support for the
management ballot is merited and that voting the management ballot is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In arriving at that conclusion, we have considered the following factors: </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">1. Significant corporate governance improvements have either been made or are in the process of being made by the Company, particularly in
the following respects: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">a. executive compensation, transitioning to a more relevant peer group terms of comparable revenues
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">b. in light of a heavy shareholder support in 2010 for an independent chairman, amendment by the Company of its bylaws to
provide for separation of the roles of CEO and Chairman and for an independent Chairman </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:8%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">c. the Company&#146;s plans to

dissidents that would proportedly[sic] lead to improvements in shareholder value. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">3. We are not convinced that addition of
dissident nominee James Mitarotunda[sic] to the Company&#146;s board of directors would work to the benefit of the shareholders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board also noted that it believes that ISS reached the wrong conclusion in its recommendation regarding Barington&#146;s proxy contest to replace James Marlen and David Davenport on the Company&#146;s
Board of Directors. ISS&#146; analysis gave scant mention to the fact that Ameron has been well-managed for many years and is succeeding, with a strong balance sheet and excellent growth potential, despite difficult market conditions. ISS also chose
to focus on the short term and ignore Ameron&#146;s excellent long-term performance. In addition, ISS explicitly stated that in making its determination, it did not require that Mr.&nbsp;Mitarotonda provide a detailed plan of action for
Ameron&#146;s future, or prove that his plan is preferable to the Company&#146;s existing plans. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board of Directors also stated, &#147;We
are of the strongly held view that the election of Mr.&nbsp;Mitarotonda would be disruptive to the Company and detrimental to our stockholders, and are extremely pleased that Egan-Jones has recognized this. We are disappointed that ISS appears to
have seriously missed the mark in its analysis.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>If you want to reject Barington, do NOT use their white card to send your
