Item 4.     Purpose of Transaction

        The following paragraphs supplement the information set forth in
Item 4 of Reporting Person's Schedule 13D dated July 31, 2014.

        On December 15, 2014, Armstrong World Industries, Inc. (the
"Company") announced that it entered into a Nomination and Shareholder
Agreement (the "Nomination Agreement") with ValueAct Capital Master Fund
L.P., VA Partners I, LLC, ValueAct Capital Management, L.P., ValueAct Capital
Management, LLC, ValueAct Holdings, L.P., ValueAct Holdings GP, LLC and
Gregory P. Spivy (collectively, the "ValueAct Group"). The ValueAct Group
currently beneficially owns approximately 17% of the Company's outstanding
common stock.

        Pursuant to the Nomination Agreement, the Company appointed Gregory
P. Spivy, a Partner at ValueAct Capital, as a member of the board of
directors of the Company (the "Board"), effective immediately. Mr. Spivy's
term will continue until the Company's 2015 annual meeting of shareholders,
at which time the Company has agreed to nominate Mr. Spivy for election to
the Board. However, if at any time the ValueAct Group ceases to own at least
7.5% of the outstanding common stock of the Company, Mr. Spivy will be
required to resign from the Board and the Company will no longer be required
to nominate Mr. Spivy for election at the 2015 annual meeting of
shareholders. Under the Nomination Agreement, the ValueAct Group is entitled
to nominate a mutually acceptable replacement in the event that Mr. Spivy no
longer serves as an Armstrong director during the term of the Nomination
Agreement, so long as the ValueAct Group continues to own at least 7.5% of
the Company's outstanding common stock.

        During the term of the Nomination Agreement, the ValueAct Group has
agreed, among other things, that it will not: (i) in any way participate in
any "solicitation" of proxies, or advise, encourage or influence any person
with respect to the voting of any securities of the Company with respect to
the election of individuals to the Board or approval of any shareholder
proposals; (ii) in any way participate in any group with any persons who are
not ValueAct affiliates with respect to the Company's securities; (iii)
acquire any beneficial or other ownership interest in more than 19% in the
aggregate of the shares of the Company's common stock outstanding at such
time; (iv) sell the securities of the Company to any person or entity that
would own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Company's common
stock following such transaction; (v) effect or seek to effect any tender or
exchange offer, merger, consolidation, acquisition, scheme, arrangement,
business combination, recapitalization, reorganization, sale or acquisition
of material assets, liquidation, dissolution or other extraordinary
transaction involving the Company; (vi) engage in any short sale or similar
derivative transaction related to the market price or value of the Company's
securities; (vii) call or seek to call any meeting of shareholders, nominate
any candidate to the Board, seek the removal of any member of the Board, seek
to act by written consent, or make a request for any shareholder list or
other Company books and records; (viii) support or make any proposal that
constitutes controlling, changing or influencing the Board or management of
the Company, any material change in the capitalization or dividend policy of
the Company, seeking to have the Company waive or amend its governance
documents, or causing any class of securities of the Company to become
eligible for deregistration; (ix) disparage the Company or affiliates thereof

or any of its current or former officers or directors; (x) make any public
disclosure, announcement or statement regarding a plan or proposal with
respect to the Company or take any action that could require the Company to
make any public disclosure; (xi) enter into any discussions negotiations,
agreements, or understandings with any third party with respect to any of the
foregoing; or (xii) request, directly or indirectly, any amendment or waiver
of the foregoing.

        The ValueAct Group also has agreed that it will: (i) vote in favor of
the Company's nominees to the board of directors at the Company's 2015 annual
meeting of shareholders; and (ii) vote in accordance with the Board's
recommendation with respect to any routine matters and the advisory vote on
executive compensation to be submitted for the approval of shareholders at
the 2015 annual meeting.

        The Nomination Agreement terminates on the earliest of: (i) the
Company's material breach of the Nomination Agreement that has not been cured
within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of such breach; (ii) the date
immediately following the last day on which a shareholder of the Company may
timely give notice of its intent to bring a proposal for consideration at the
Company's 2016 annual meeting of shareholders; (iii) the date that is ninety
(90) days after the date any ValueAct designee ceases to be a member of the
Board; and (iv) a mutually agreed upon date.

is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the text of the Nomination
Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Issuer's
Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 15, 2014 and incorporated herein by
