          June 16, 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of

          Robert
          E. Mellor, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer.&#160;
          Under the amendment to the Employment Agreement, the term of Mr. Mellor&#8217;s
          employment was extended for two years to May 31, 2009.&#160; In addition,
          the
          Employment Agreement was amended to reflect Mr. Mellor&#8217;s current base salary of
          $750,000. All other provisions of the Employment Agreement as amended remain

      Company&#8217;s Severance Plan for Certain Executive Officers, Senior Management and
      Key Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries (Severance Plan).&#160;
      The
      amendment to the Severance Plan, effective as of June 16, 2005, among other
      things, changes the timing of certain distributions under the Severance Plan
      in
      a manner intended to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under newly
      adopted Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Code), allows the
      Board to unilaterally further amend the Severance Plan at any time prior to
      a
      change in control so that the Severance Plan will operate in a manner intended
      to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Code Section&#160;409A,
      and
      provides that the Company will gross-up a participant in the event that the
      participant is subject to additional taxes under Code Section 409A(a)(1)(B),
      such that the after-tax benefit to the participant is the same as if such
      additional taxes (and taxes on amounts provided for under the gross-up
      provision) had not been imposed.</font></div>

Item
          1.01
Entry Into
          a
          Material Definitive Agreement
On
          June 16, 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of
          Building
          Materials Holding Corporation (Company) approved the Second Amendment to
          the
          Employment Agreement, dated June 1, 2002, by and between the Company and
          Robert
          E. Mellor, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. 
          Under the amendment to the Employment Agreement, the term of Mr. Mellor's
          employment was extended for two years to May 31, 2009.  In addition,
          the
          Employment Agreement was amended to reflect Mr. Mellor's current base salary of
          $750,000. All other provisions of the Employment Agreement as amended remain
          effective.
Also,
      on June 16,
      2005, the Compensation Committee approved the First Amendment to the
      Company's Severance Plan for Certain Executive Officers, Senior Management and
      Key Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries (Severance Plan). 
      The
      amendment to the Severance Plan, effective as of June 16, 2005, among other
      things, changes the timing of certain distributions under the Severance Plan
      in
      a manner intended to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under newly
      adopted Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Code), allows the
      Board to unilaterally further amend the Severance Plan at any time prior to
      a
      change in control so that the Severance Plan will operate in a manner intended
      to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Code Section 409A,
      and
      provides that the Company will gross-up a participant in the event that the
      participant is subject to additional taxes under Code Section 409A(a)(1)(B),
      such that the after-tax benefit to the participant is the same as if such
      additional taxes (and taxes on amounts provided for under the gross-up
      provision) had not been imposed.

                2005.
