The Niles family has developed in the painting business through three generations since 1958. We started as Genesee Decorating Co., and in 1970 began a period of great success working closely with the automotive industry on industrial painting and cleaning projects as Genesee Painting Co., Inc. We survived acquisition by a national company, and reestablished ourselves in November 2002 as Niles Industrial. In doing so, we have maintained the majority of key management and field personnel that ultimately contributed to the overall success of Genesee Painting Company, Inc. Niles Industrial values our past while we rely on forward thinking and continuous improvement, to enable us to provide our customers with a full range of industrial services to meet their every need. One component of our development was the acquisition of Response Maintenance of Gary, Indiana. Response Maintenance was a company with years of experience specializing in water blasting, wet/dry vacuum truck services, liquid vacuum truck services and sewer cleaning. Niles Industrial’s key leadership and impressive inventory of equipment has allowed us to build and maintain strong industry relationships with Fortune 500 companies. We are highly confident that with the wide array of services, established relationships and the Niles management combined experience exceeding 200 years in industrial cleaning and painting, we are the contractor of choice for any project in these sectors. Our mission is to provide safe and economical value added solutions to our customers. As you can see from the attached list of projects completed, the Niles team has a diversified background completing a wide range of commercial, industrial and automotive projects of various contract values. Niles Industrial is bonded, insured and ISO certified. In the future, we will continue to provide the highest level of safety performance and overall quality that our customers have come to expect. Sincerely, Ryan Niles President Niles Industrial Niles Industrial Mission Statement Niles Industrial and its employees are committed to providing painting, cleaning and associated services that meet or exceed our customer’s requirements.

We are dedicated to customer satisfaction in all we do and will accept nothing less than “best in class.” We understand that we must provide a better job than our competitors in order to meet customer satisfaction. Customer satisfaction is evident by their recommendation of our services to others and in doing so; we will ensure future work for the Niles people and security for their families.

AUT OR D REPRESEN TI © ACORD CORPORATION 1988 Back in Business By Wendi Sawchuk, Associate Editor PHOTOS COURTESY OF NILES INDUSTRIAL Niles Industrial lthough CAM Member Niles Industrial is a fairly new business, the Niles name has been well established in the construction industry for almost 50 years. Located in Flint, Niles Industrial provides industrial painting and cleaning services, as well as fireproofing, insulation, commercial painting, wallcovering, and many other related services to a wide-range of clients. Over the years, the Niles family has witnessed tremendous success, along with a few low points. However, through it all, the family has managed to remain at the forefront of the industry. A GENESEE PAINTING The history of Niles Industrial began with Genesee Decorating Company, Flint, which was established by the father and son partnership of Ronald L. Niles and Ronald Dale Niles in 1958. The company started with various small commercial projects for schools, hospitals and department stores. “They named it Genesee Decorating Company because of its location within Genesee County,” said Ryan Niles, president (and grandson of R.L. Niles), Niles Industrial. “Back then, they were thinking so vastly as to cover the entire county of Genesee.” Reprinted with permission. Copyright © 2004 CAM Magazine In the 1960s, two other sons, Gary Niles and Dan Niles, also joined the company. At that point, the name was changed to Genesee Painting Company, Inc. During that time, the business began to include industrial painting for several automotive plants in Michigan. The third generation of the Niles family joined the company within the past ten Niles Industrial recently completed a 144,000-square-foot industrial painting project in four days at the General Motors metal fabrication plant in Flint. years. Throughout the 40 years of business, Genesee Painting expanded so considerably that they were working in 13 states. “By 2000, the company was operating at about $25 million-per-year in sales,” said Niles. EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES In 2000, Niles family decided to sell Genesee Painting to Kenny Manta Industrial Services located in Chicago. Like Niles, Kenny Manta was a growing company at the time with seemingly strong financial resources. “They were purchasing several painting companies, as well as industrial cleaning service businesses,” said Niles.“Their intention was to have painting companies like ours with established clients (i.e. automotive manufacturers) and cross-sell the cleaning services to those large clients.” Under Kenny Manta, Genesee Painting continued to operate from the same Flint office with the core management personnel, including Dan Niles (Ryan Niles’ father) and other Niles family members. Unfortunately, a mismanagement of finances resulted in Kenny Manta filing for bankruptcy in February 2003. As the parent company, the domino effect of the situation eventually made its way to Genesee Painting. “Even though Genesee Painting was profCAM MAGAZINE SEPTEMBER 2004 1 they have negotiated two major conitable every year under Kenny Manta, tracts.

Biography: Ryan is an ambitious and driven individual. As a self-starter with proven ability to effectively manage projects, his keen eye quickly identifies areas for improvement while his personable communication skills lead clients and team members to decisive action plans. Ryan’s involvement with the industrial painting and cleaning business for more than 15 years includes “hands-on” experience, starting at the bottom with sweeping shop floors to where he is currently, the President of Niles Industrial. Throughout his career Ryan created many cost conserving ideas, such as, a 10% annual savings while overseeing the $25 million budget for paint and abrasive purchases. His coordination and management skills guided two simultaneous projects for Meijer, totaling an excess of $15 million, to an on time completion while being under budget. This experience and perspective give him a unique insight to the needs of customers as well as an in-depth knowledge of solutions found within the industrial painting and cleaning industry. In November 2002, Ryan formed Niles Industrial, LLC. This endeavor was important to him as he is the third generation of the Niles family to be in the industrial coating business. Under Ryan’s tenure as President, Niles Industrial continues to maintain strong relationships within the automotive industry while establishing new relationships in a variety of manufacturing, industrial and utility sectors. While managing all executive decisions and day-to-day activities, Ryan will draw upon the expertise found in the management team listed below: Dan Niles, CEO/Chief Estimator Gary Niles, Labor Director Scott Misener, Vice President of Operations Rich Gabera, Safety Director Tom Crosby, Controller Bob Webber, Field Operations Director Mike Bierlein, Project Manager Kiley Yarbrough , Business/Marketing Manager Scott Shellenbarger, Project Manager Dave Gore, Project Manager Scott Avendt, Purchasing Manager Paul Misener, Project Manager Linda Kabel, Estimating Support Rick Landers, Midwest Regional Manager Rick Fleming, Warehouse Manager Kate Rock, Accounts Receivable Nancy Cadroy, Payroll DeAnn Bickford, Accounts Payable Confidential Page 35 Dan Niles, Chief Executive Officer Education: Mott Community College Detroit School of Estimating California Coast University, Bachelors of Business Administration Pepperdine University of Law, Contract Damages Trade Application School, Fireproofing, Waterproofing, Floor Coating Rocky Mountain Decorative Painting School Military: Drill Sergeant School, Grade E/6 Drill Sergeant School, Graduate E/7 Affiliations: Construction Specifications Institute Painting and Decorating Contractors of America (P.D.C.A.), National Industrial Painting Committee Publications: American Painter Magazine, February 1990 PWC, May 1990 “Dialing for Dollars”, IPC, October 1990, San Antonio, TX “Incentive Plan”, IPC, February 1991, Atlanta, GA Biography: Dan is an artistic and creative person.
