STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>PASADENA, Calif., March&nbsp;23, 2011 &#150;</B> The Independent Directors of Ameron International Corporation (NYSE: AMN) urged stockholders today to re-elect Directors James Marlen and David
Davenport and to reject Barington Capital Group&#146;s nominee, James Mitarotonda. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Independent Directors commented, &#147;We are
determined to put forward the facts and let stockholders decide for themselves the future of their investment in Ameron. We believe that the outstanding returns that this Board, management and Ameron&#146;s dedicated employees have produced for
stockholders send a clear message: total stockholder return of approximately 11 percent per year during Jim Marlen&#146;s tenure with the Company from June&nbsp;30, 1993 to January&nbsp;31, 2011; and an approximately 12 percent per year total
stockholder return over the last five fiscal years, despite the economic recession. The Company&#146;s total stockholder returns exceeded the returns of the Dow Jones Index, the Russell 2000 Index, the S&amp;P 500 Index and the NYSE Broad Index over
both periods. Ameron&#146;s stock price increased nearly five times from 1993 to today. Because of the efforts of the current team, Ameron is a focused and streamlined company that is the leader in almost every market in which it competes. Based on
these efforts as well as prudent fiscal planning, timely divestitures, strategic organic initiatives and an expanded global footprint, Ameron is poised for growth when its end markets improve. We urge stockholders not to let Barington compromise
Ameron&#146;s future performance and growth prospects. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As Egan-Jones recognized, Barington has offered no positive ideas, plans or strategies
to build value at Ameron. We believe that ISS and Glass Lewis failed to recognize this fact, failed to sufficiently analyze Mr.&nbsp;Mitarotonda&#146;s history and performance, failed to sufficiently study the Company&#146;s end markets to
understand the effects the Great Recession has had on the Company&#146;s businesses as compared to its peers and failed to give adequate credit to management and the current Board for the Company&#146;s impressive financial and strategic
accomplishments.&#148; </FONT></P>

independent directors of much higher caliber than Mr.&nbsp;Mitarotonda who will promote positive change. We believe that Ameron&#146;s management team has a clear vision and strategy and that the Board has been responsive to stockholders and has
adopted corporate governance policies that are in the best interests of all stockholders. Further, since March 2010, when Mr.&nbsp;Marlen announced his retirement in March 2012, the Board has worked to put a thoughtful leadership succession plan in
place to advance the long-term benefit of all Ameron stockholders.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Ameron Board continues to urge stockholders to vote the GOLD
