#GrantDate#

This GLOBAL RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of the date first written above by and between PPG Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) and #ParticipantName+C# (the “Participant”).
The Company maintains the PPG Industries, Inc. Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”), which is incorporated into and forms a part of this Agreement, and the Participant has been selected by the Company to receive an Award under the Plan. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall, unless defined elsewhere in this Agreement, have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Grant Notice (as defined below) or the Plan.

The Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be confirmed by a separate Grant Notice to which this Agreement is attached (the “Grant Notice”), specifying the Date of Grant of the Award, the number of Restricted Stock Units granted and the Award Goals (as defined in the Grant Notice) applicable to such Restricted Stock Units. Each Restricted Stock Unit is a bookkeeping entry representing the equivalent in value of a share of Common Stock. Such Award shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement. Such Grant Notice shall be deemed incorporated by reference into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and the Participant, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
1.Terms and Conditions of the Award.
A.This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions applicable to the Award of Restricted Stock Units confirmed in the Grant Notice. The Award of Restricted Stock Units is made under Article VII of the Plan. Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units are vested in the manner set forth in paragraph 1.P. and 2.A. hereof, the Participant shall have no right to settlement of any such Restricted Stock Units.
B.The Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, the Grant Notice and/or this Agreement.
C.The Award is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future awards of Restricted Stock Units, or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock Units even if Restricted Stock Units have been awarded in the past.
D.All decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company.
E.The Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary.
F.For Participants located outside of the United States, the Restricted Stock Units are an extraordinary item that does not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary employing the Participant (the “Employer”) and the Restricted Stock Units are outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any.
G.The Restricted Stock Units, the underlying shares of Common Stock, and the income and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculation of any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or any Subsidiary.


H.Neither the award of Restricted Stock Units nor any provision of this Agreement, the Plan, the Grant Notice, or any policies adopted pursuant to the Plan confer upon the Participant any right with respect to employment or continuation of current employment with the Company or any Subsidiary, and in the event that the Participant is not an employee of the Company, the award of Restricted Stock Units shall not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary.
I.The future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty.
J.No claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Award resulting from termination of the Participant’s employment (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any).
K.The Committee may terminate the Award at any time on or prior to the Vesting Date (as defined in the Grant Notice) if, in its sole discretion, the Committee determines that the Participant is no longer in a position to have a substantial opportunity to influence the long-term growth of the Company.
L.Prior to settlement of any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Units will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. The Company’s obligations under this Agreement shall be unfunded and unsecured, and no special or separate fund shall be established and no other segregation of assets shall be made and the Participant shall have no greater rights than an unsecured general creditor of the Company. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Grant Notice or this Agreement, the Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company by virtue of any Restricted Stock Units granted under this Award unless and until such Award is determined to be vested and resulting shares of Common Stock are issued to the Participant.
M.If the Participant’s employment with the Company or any Employer terminates prior to the Vesting Date but, on or after the first anniversary of the Date of Grant because of retirement, disability, job elimination, including termination of employment by the Company due to a divestiture, each as determined in the Committee’s sole discretion, or death, the Participant shall be entitled to the same payments under the Award to which the Participant would have been entitled had the Participant’s employment continued through the Vesting Date, and such Award shall be paid as soon as practicable following the Vesting Date, subject to paragraph 2.C. hereof; provided, however, that the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine that the Participant will be entitled to a lesser Award.
N.If the Participant’s employment with the Company or any Employer terminates prior to the Vesting Date for any reason other than retirement, disability, job elimination, including termination of employment by the Company due to a divestiture, each as determined in the Committee’s sole discretion, or death, or for any reason before the first anniversary of the Date of Grant, the Participant’s Award shall be forfeited on the date of such termination; provided, however, that the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine that the Participant will be entitled to a full or partial payout with respect to the Award.
O.For purposes of the Award, the Participant’s employment or service relationship will be considered terminated as of the date the Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any), and unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Plan, the Grant Notice, the Change in Control Agreement, or any offer letter and/or employment agreement referenced herein, or determined by the Company, the Participant’s right to vest in the Award under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Participant’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or the terms of the Participant’s employment agreement, if any); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Award (including whether the Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence).


P.The Committee shall determine the extent, if any, to which the applicable Award Goals have been attained and the extent, if any, to which the Award has been earned by the Participant, on or before March 15 following the end of the Award Period (the “Determination Date”).
Q.In the event that, during the Change in Control Period (as hereinafter defined), the Participant is subject to an Involuntary Termination (as hereinafter defined), then a number of Restricted Stock Units determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, but in no event fewer than the number of Restricted Stock Units that would become vested at the “target” level, shall become fully vested, and the payout of the Award shall be made as soon as practicable following the date of the Involuntary Termination, subject to paragraph 2.C. hereof (for avoidance of doubt, the Restricted Stock Units that vest pursuant to this paragraph 1.Q. shall not be subject to the performance and determination procedures contemplated by paragraph 1.P. hereof). The amount of any cash to be paid in lieu of Common Stock, if any, shall be determined using the closing sale price reported on the New York Stock Exchange-Composite Tape for the Common Stock on the date of Involuntary Termination, or if there is no sale on such date, for the nearest preceding date upon which such sale took place. If required to avoid additional taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A (as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion), the Company and the Participant shall take all steps necessary (including with regard to post-termination services by the Participant) to ensure that an Involuntary Termination constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the date on which a separation from service takes place for reasons resulting in an Involuntary Termination shall be the date of the Involuntary Termination.
If the Participant is a party to a Change in Control Employment Agreement with the Company (a “Change in Control Agreement”), “Change in Control Period” for purposes of this Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to the term “Employment Period,” as defined in the Change in Control Agreement, and if the Participant is not a party to a Change in Control Agreement, the term shall mean the period commencing on the date of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) and ending on the earlier of the Participant’s date of Retirement and the Vesting Date. “Retirement” for purposes of this paragraph 1.G. shall mean the Participant’s termination of employment on or after (i) with respect to a participant in a tax-qualified defined benefit pension plan sponsored by PPG, an Participant’s “normal retirement date” as defined in such pension plan, (ii) with respect to any Participant that the Company may subject to compulsory retirement under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (29 U.S.C. § 621 et. seq.) (ADEA) as a “bona fide executive or a high policy maker,” such Participant’s “normal retirement date,” (iii) with respect to a participant in the PPG Industries Defined Contribution Retirement Plan, the Participant’s Social Security normal retirement date, provided that such termination is voluntary, or, (iv) with respect to a participant for whom the provisions in (i) through (iii) are not applicable, the Participant’s attainment of age sixty-five (65), provided the termination is a voluntary resignation by the Participant.

“Involuntary Termination” for purposes of this Agreement shall mean, if the Participant is a party to a Change in Control Agreement, a termination of the Participant’s employment that gives rise to payments and benefits under Section 6 of the Change in Control Agreement, and if the Participant is not a party to a Change in Control Agreement, shall mean a termination by the Company for any reason other than Cause, death or Disability (as the terms are hereinafter defined). “Cause” for purposes of a Participant who is not a party to a Change in Control Agreement shall have the same meaning as that term is defined in the Participant’s offer letter or other applicable employment agreement; or, if there is no such definition, “Cause” means, as determined by the Committee in good faith: (i) engaging in any act, or failing to act, or misconduct that is injurious to the Company or its Subsidiaries; (ii) gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with the performance of duties; (iii) conviction of (or entering a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to) a criminal offense (other than a minor traffic offense); (iv) fraud, embezzlement or misappropriation of funds or property of the Company or a Subsidiary; (v)  breach of any material term of any agreement between the Participant and the Company or a Subsidiary relating to employment, consulting or other services, confidentiality, intellectual property or non-competition; (vi) the entry of an order duly issued by any regulatory agency (including federal, state and local regulatory agencies and self-regulatory bodies) having jurisdiction over the Company or a Subsidiary requiring the removal from any office held by the Participant with the Company or prohibiting or materially limiting the Participant from participating in the business or affairs of the Company or any Subsidiary. “Disability” for purposes of this Agreement shall mean disability, which, after the expiration of more than 52 weeks after its commencement, is determined to be total and permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers.
R.The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan or sale of the underlying shares of Common Stock.


S.The Participant should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan or Restricted Stock Units.
T.Unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Award and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Award or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of the Company.
U.Unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Award, the underlying shares of Common Stock, and the income and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service the Participant may provide as a director of any Subsidiary.    
V.Neither the Company, the Employer nor any Subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Award or of any amounts due to the Participant pursuant to the vesting/settlement of the Award or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting/settlement.
2.Payout on Account of Awards.
A.Upon attainment of the Award Goals and satisfaction of all other applicable conditions as to the issuance of the Restricted Stock Units, and otherwise subject to this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the Participant shall be entitled to the number of shares of Common Stock constituting the Award as determined by the Committee in accordance with paragraph 1.P hereof. The Participant shall be entitled to receive a payout of the vested Award in the form of cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares, less any Tax-Related Items as defined in paragraph 6, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The amount of any cash to be paid in lieu of Common Stock shall be determined on the basis of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock as of the Determination Date.
B.Any shares of Common Stock issued to the Participant with respect to his or her Award shall be subject to such restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the New York Stock Exchange and any applicable state or foreign securities laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be endorsed on any stock certificates for such shares making appropriate references to such legal restrictions.
C.Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, and, for Participants located in the United States, except in the event the Participant is permitted and has made an election to defer payout of the Restricted Stock Units pursuant to the terms and conditions established by the Company, the issuance of the shares of Common Stock (or payment of cash in lieu thereof) in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 1 and this paragraph 2 will be delivered by March 15 of the calendar year following the earlier of (i) the taxable year that includes the last day of the Award Period or, (ii) to the extent applicable under the provisions of paragraph 1.Q. hereof, the date of an Involuntary Termination following a Change in Control. Payout of Restricted Stock Units that have been deferred shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the deferral election form.
3.Continuing Conditions. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, the Participant, by execution of this Agreement, agrees and acknowledges that in return for the Award granted by the Company in this Agreement, the following continuing conditions shall apply:
A.If at any time prior to the Vesting Date or within one (1) year after the Vesting Date the Participant engages in any activity in competition with any activity of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or contrary or harmful to the interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including, but not limited to: (1) conduct related to the Participant’s employment for which either criminal or civil penalties against the Participant may be sought; (2) violation of Company(or Subsidiary) Code of Ethics or similar policy; (3) accepting employment with or serving as a consultant, advisor or in any other capacity to an employer that is in competition with or acting against the interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including employing or recruiting any present, former or future employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (4) disclosing or misusing any confidential information or material concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (5) participating in a hostile takeover attempt, then this Award shall terminate effective as of the date on which the Participant enters into such activity, unless terminated sooner by operation of another term or condition of this Agreement, and any “Award Gain”


realized by the Participant shall be paid by the Participant to the Company. “Award Gain” shall mean the cash and the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock delivered to the Participant pursuant to paragraph 2 on the date of such delivery times the number of shares so delivered. Any shares of Common Stock deferred by the Participant shall be considered to have been delivered for the purpose of this paragraph 3.
B.By accepting this Agreement, the Participant consents to a deduction from any amounts the Company or any of its Subsidiaries owes the Participant from time to time (including amounts owed the Participant as wages or other compensation, fringe benefits or vacation pay, as well as any other amounts owed to the Participant by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), to the extent of the amounts payable to the Company by the Participant under paragraph 3.A. above. Whether or not the Company elects to make any set-off in whole or in part, if the Company does not recover by means of set-off the full amount payable by the Participant, calculated as set forth above, the Participant agrees to pay immediately the unpaid balance to the Company.
C. The Participant may be released from the Participant’s obligations under paragraphs 3.A and 3.B above only if the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that such action is in the best interest of the Company.
4.Award Subject to Plan Provisions. Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Grant Notice or this Agreement, the Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be subject to the provisions of the Plan, including, without limitation, Article XI. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and either the Grant Notice or the Plan, the Grant Notice or Plan, as applicable, shall control over this Agreement.
5.Applicable Law; Entire Agreement; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without reference to any choice of law principles. The Grant Notice, this Agreement, the Plan, the Change in Control Agreement, and any offer letter and/or employment agreement referenced herein, contain all terms and conditions with respect to the subject matter hereof.
For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises under the Award or this Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and agree that such litigation shall be conducted in the courts of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, or other federal courts for the United States for the Western District of Pennsylvania, where this Award of Restricted Stock Units is made and/or to be performed, and no other courts. The parties agree that, if suit is filed in Allegheny County courts, application will be made by one or both parties, without objection, to have the case heard in the Center for Commercial and Complex Litigation of the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County.
6.Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company and/or the Employer take with respect to any or all income tax (including U.S. federal, state, and local tax and/or non-U.S. tax), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Participant or deemed by the Company or the Employer to be an appropriate charge to the Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant and vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the conversion of the Restricted Stock Units into shares or the receipt of an equivalent cash payment, the subsequent sale of any shares acquired pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units and the receipt of any dividends or Dividend Equivalents; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Participant has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
Prior to any relevant taxable or tax-withholding event, as applicable, the Participant shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax-Related Items.
In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, to satisfy the Tax-Related Items obligation by one or a combination of the following:


(i) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon the vesting/settlement of the Award either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization); and/or
(ii) withholding from any wages or other cash compensation paid to the Participant by the Company and/or the Employer or from any equivalent cash payment received in connection with the Award; and/or
(iii) withholding in shares of Common Stock to be issued upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, provided, however that if the Participant is a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Company  may withhold in shares of Common Stock upon the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, only if the use of such withholding method is not problematic under applicable tax or securities law or has materially adverse accounting consequences, in which case, the obligation for Tax-Related Items may be satisfied by one or a combination of methods (i) and (ii) above.
The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates in the Participant's jurisdiction(s). In the event of over-withholding, the Participant may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the equivalent in Common Stock or if not refunded, the Participant may seek a refund from the local tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, the Participant may be required to pay any additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authority or to the Company and/or the Employer. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of shares as described herein, the Participant shall be deemed, for tax purposes only, to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested portion of the Award, notwithstanding that a number of shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Award. The Participant shall pay to the Company and/or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that is required to be withheld or accounted for in connection with the Restricted Stock Units that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to deliver to the Participant any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Award if the Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
Anything in this paragraph 6 to the contrary notwithstanding, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Restricted Stock Units that will be permitted to be released and withheld (or sold on the Participant’s behalf) to satisfy any Tax-Related Items arising prior to the date the shares are scheduled to be delivered pursuant to paragraph 2.C. hereof for any portion of the Restricted Stock Units that are considered nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code shall not exceed the number of shares of Common Stock that equals the liability for the Tax-Related Items.
7.Further Assurances. The Participant agrees, upon demand of the Company or the Committee, to do all acts and execute, deliver and perform all additional documents, instruments and agreements (including, without limitation, stock powers with respect to shares of Common Stock issued or otherwise distributed in relation to this Award) which may be reasonably required by the Company or the Committee, as the case may be, to implement the provisions and purposes of the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Plan.
8.Transfer Restrictions. This Award and the Restricted Stock Units are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and may not be assigned, hypothecated or otherwise pledged and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to effect any such disposition, or upon the levy of any such process, the Award shall immediately become null and void and the Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited.
9.Capitalization Adjustments. The number of Restricted Stock Units awarded is subject to adjustment as provided in Section 11.07(a) of the Plan. The Participant shall be notified of such adjustment and such adjustment shall be binding upon the Company and the Participant.
10.Securities Law Compliance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no shares of Common Stock shall be issued to the Participant upon vesting of this Restricted Stock Unit Award unless the Common Stock is then registered under the Securities Act, or, if such Common Stock is not then so registered, the Company has determined that such vesting and issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Participant’s sale of Shares may be subject to any closed trading windows that may be imposed by the Company and must comply with the Company’s


▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ policies (as may be amended from time to time by the Company in its sole discretion) and any other applicable securities laws. The Company’s ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ policy may prohibit Participant from buying or selling Shares. By accepting this Award, the Participant agrees not to sell any of the shares of Common Stock received under this Award at a time when the applicable laws or Company policies prohibit a sale.
11.Data Privacy. For Participants outside of the United States:
Data Privacy Consent. By electing to participate in the Plan via the Company’s online acceptance procedure, the Participant is declaring that he or she agrees with the data processing practices described herein and consents to the collection, processing and use of Personal Data (as defined below) by the Company and the transfer of Personal Data to the recipients mentioned herein, including recipients located in countries which do not adduce an adequate level of protection from a European (or other) data protection law perspective, for the purposes described herein.

Declaration of Consent. The Participant understands that he or she needs to review the following information about the processing of his or her personal data by or on behalf of the Company, the Employer and/or any Subsidiary as described in the Agreement and any other Plan materials (the “Personal Data”) and declare his or her consent. As regards the processing of the Participant’s Personal Data in connection with the Plan and this Agreement, the Participant understands that the Company is the controller of his or her Personal Data.

Data Processing and Legal Basis. The Company collects, uses and otherwise processes Personal Data about the Participant for the purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Participant understands that this Personal Data may include, without limitation, his or her name, home address and telephone number, email address, date of birth, social insurance number, passport number or other identification number (e.g., resident registration number), salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of stock or equivalent benefits awarded, cancelled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor. The legal basis for the processing of the Participant’s Personal Data, where required, will be his or her consent.

Stock Plan Administration Service Providers. The Participant understands that the Company transfers his or her Personal Data, or parts thereof, to Fidelity Stock Plan Services, LLC (and its affiliated companies), an independent service provider based in the United States which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, the Company may select a different service provider and share the Participant’s Personal Data with such different service provider that serves the Company in a similar manner. The Participant understands and acknowledges that the Company’s service provider will open an account for him or her to receive and trade shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan and that he or she will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition of the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan.

International Data Transfers. The Participant understands that the Company and, as of the date hereof, any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, such as Fidelity Stock Plan Services, LLC, are based in the United States. The Participant understands and acknowledges that his or her country may have enacted data privacy laws that are different from the laws of the United States. The Company’s legal basis for the transfer of the Participant’s Personal Data is his or her consent.

Data Retention. The Participant understands that the Company will use his or her Personal Data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage his or her participation in the Plan, or to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under tax and securities laws. In the latter case, the Participant understands and acknowledges that the Company’s legal basis for the processing of his or her Personal Data would be compliance with the relevant laws or regulations. When the Company no longer needs the Participant’s Personal Data for any of the above purposes, the Participant understands the Company will remove it from its systems.



Voluntariness and Consequences of Denial/Withdrawal of Consent. The Participant understands that his or her participation in the Plan and his or her consent is purely voluntary. The Participant may deny or later withdraw his or her consent at any time, with future effect and for any or no reason. If the Participant denies or later withdraws his or her consent, the Company can no longer offer the Participant participation in the Plan or offer other equity awards to the Participant or administer or maintain such awards and the Participant would no longer be able to participate in the Plan. The Participant further understands that denial or withdrawal of his or her consent would not affect his or her status or salary as an employee or his or her career and that the Participant would merely forfeit the opportunities associated with the Plan.

Data Subject Rights. The Participant understands that data subject rights regarding the processing of Personal Data vary depending on the applicable law and that, depending on where the Participant is based and subject to the conditions set out in the applicable law, the Participant may have, without limitation, the rights to (i) inquire whether and what kind of Personal Data the Company holds about him or her and how it is processed, and to access or request copies of such Personal Data, (ii) request the correction or supplementation of Personal Data about him or her that is inaccurate, incomplete or out-of-date in light of the purposes underlying the processing, (iii) obtain the erasure of Personal Data no longer necessary for the purposes underlying the processing, processed based on withdrawn consent, processed for legitimate interests that, in the context of his or her objection, do not prove to be compelling, or processed in non-compliance with applicable legal requirements, (iv) request the Company to restrict the processing of his or her Personal Data in certain situations where the Participant feels its processing is inappropriate, (v) object, in certain circumstances, to the processing of Personal Data for legitimate interests, and to (vi) request portability of the Participant’s Personal Data that he or she has actively or passively provided to the Company (which does not include data derived or inferred from the collected data), where the processing of such Personal Data is based on consent or his or her employment and is carried out by automated means. In case of concerns, the Participant understands that he or she may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent local data protection authority. Further, to receive clarification of, or to exercise any of, the Participant’s rights, the Participant understands that he or she should contact his or her local human resources representative.


12.Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
13.Waiver. The Participant acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach of this Agreement.

In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to the Participant’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure him or her of any particular result. Accordingly, the Participant should seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in the Participant’s country apply to his or her specific situation.

Termination of Employment. The Participant understands and agrees that, if he or she is subject to exchange control laws and regulations in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion), paragraph 1.M. of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following provision:

M.    If the Participant’s employment with the Company, the Employer or any Subsidiary terminates prior to the Vesting Date but, on or after the first anniversary of the Date of Grant because of retirement, disability or job elimination, including termination of employment by the Company due to a divestiture, each as determined in the Committee’s sole discretion, or death, the Participant shall be entitled to the same Award to which the Participant would have been entitled had the Participant’s employment continued through the Vesting Date, and such Award shall be paid as soon as practicable following the Vesting Date, subject to paragraph 2.C.; provided, however, that the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine that the Participant will be entitled to a lesser Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Payout Date (as defined in paragraph 2.C.) is more than six (6) months after the termination date, the Participant shall surrender all unvested Restricted Stock Units and, in exchange therefore, the Participant will receive a cash payment equal in value to the Award to which the Participant would have been entitled had the Participant’s employment continued through the Vesting Date, and such cash payment shall be paid as soon as practicable following the Participant’s termination date. For purposes of the foregoing, the amount of any cash to be paid in lieu of Common Stock shall be determined on the basis of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock as of the date on which it is paid.
Exchange Control Restrictions. To facilitate compliance with any applicable laws or regulations in the PRC, the Participant agrees to the sale of any shares of Common Stock to be issued upon vesting and settlement of the Award. The sale will occur (i) immediately upon vesting and settlement of the Award, (ii) following the Participant’s termination of employment with the Employer, the Company or a Subsidiary, or



(iii) within any other time frame as the Company determines to be necessary to facilitate compliance with local regulatory requirements. The Participant further agrees that the Company is authorized to instruct its designated broker to assist with the mandatory sale of such shares (on the Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization) and the Participant expressly authorizes the Company’s designated broker to complete the sale of such shares. The Participant acknowledges that the Company’s designated broker is under no obligation to arrange for the sale of the shares at any particular price. Upon the sale of the shares, the Company agrees to pay the Participant the cash proceeds from the sale, less any brokerage fees or commissions and subject to any obligation to satisfy Tax-Related Items. The Participant agrees that the payment of the cash proceeds will be subject to the repatriation requirements described below.
The Participant further agrees that any shares to be issued to the Participant shall be deposited directly into an account with the Company’s designated broker. The deposited shares shall not be transferable (either electronically or in certificate form) from the brokerage account. This limitation shall apply both to transfers to different accounts with the same broker and to transfers to other brokerage firms. The limitation shall apply to all shares issued to the Participant under the Plan, whether or not the Participant continues to be employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries. If the Participant sells shares issued upon vesting and settlement of the Award, the repatriation requirements described below shall apply.
The Participant understands and agrees that, if he or she is subject to exchange control laws and regulations in the PRC (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion), the Participant will be required to repatriate the proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock and any dividends or Dividend Equivalents received in relation to the shares to the PRC. The Participant further understands that, under local law, such repatriation of his or her cash proceeds may need to be effectuated through a special exchange control account established by the Company, a Subsidiary or the Employer, and the Participant hereby consents and agrees that any proceeds from the sale of any shares, dividends or Dividend Equivalents the Participant receives may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to the Participant. The Participant also agrees to sign any agreements, forms and/or consents that may be reasonably requested by the Company (or the Company’s designated brokerage firm) to effectuate such transfers and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company with respect to exchange control matters. The proceeds may be paid to the Participant in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion. If the proceeds are paid to the Participant in U.S. dollars, the Participant understands that he or she will be required to set up a U.S. dollar bank account in China so that the proceeds may be deposited into this account. If the proceeds are paid to the Participant in local currency, the Participant acknowledges that the Company is under no obligation to secure any particular exchange conversion rate and that the Company may face delays in converting the proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions. The Participant agrees that, if required by the Company, he or she will bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the proceeds are received and the time (i) the Tax-Related Items are converted to local currency and remitted to the tax authorities and/or (ii) the net proceeds are converted to local currency and distributed to the Participant. The Participant further agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future in order to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China.

Labor Law Acknowledgement. By accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges that pursuant to Article 128 of the Colombia Labor Code, the Plan and related benefits do not constitute a component of “salary” for any purposes.  To this extent, the Participant understands they will not be included and/or considered for purposes of calculating any and all labor benefits, such as legal/fringe benefits, vacations, indemnities, payroll taxes, social insurance contributions and/or any other labor-related amount that may be payable.

Based on the foregoing, the Participant expressly recognizes that the Plan and the benefits that the Participant may derive from participating in the Plan do not establish any rights between the Participant and the Employer, PPG-Mexico, and do not form part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by PPG-Mexico and any modification of the Plan or its termination shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Participant’s employment.

The Participant further understands that the Participant’s participation in the Plan is as a result of a unilateral and discretionary decision of PPG Industries, Inc.; therefore, PPG Industries, Inc. reserves the absolute right to amend and/or discontinue the Participant’s participation at any time without any liability to the Participant.

Finally, the Participant hereby declares that the Participant does not reserve to the Participant any action or right to bring any claim against PPG Industries, Inc. for any compensation or damages regarding any provision of the Plan or the benefits derived under the Plan, and the Participant therefore grants a full and broad release to PPG Industries, Inc., its affiliates, branches, representation offices, its shareholders, directors, officers, agents or legal representatives with respect to any claim that may arise.

Morocco

Settlement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Participant is not entitled to receive any shares of Common Stock upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units due to exchange control regulations in Morocco. This means that upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant will receive a cash payment equal to the value of the underlying shares of Common Stock at vesting, less any Tax-Related Items, which will be remitted to the Participant via local payroll.

New Zealand

Securities Law Notice. Warning: This is an offer of rights to receive shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Agreement. The shares of Common Stock, once acquired, will give the Participant a stake in the ownership of the Company. The Participant may receive a return if dividends are paid on the shares of Common Stock. If the Company runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, the Participant will be paid only after all creditors have been paid. The Participant may lose some or all of his or her investment.

New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors to make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share scheme. As a result, the Participant may not be given all the information usually required. The Participant will also have fewer other legal protections for this investment.

The Participant should ask questions, read all documents carefully, and seek independent financial advice before committing him- or herself. The shares of Common Stock are quoted on the New York Stock Exchange, and the Participant may be able to sell them on the New York Stock Exchange if there are interested buyers. The Participant may get less than the Participant invested. The price will depend on the demand for the shares of Common Stock.

For information on risk factors impacting the Company’s business that may affect the value of the shares of Common Stock, the Participant should refer to the risk factors discussion in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and are available online at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇, as well as on the Company’s “Investor Center” website at ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/.

The Participant is required to retain the documents connected with a foreign exchange transaction for a period of five (5) years, as measured from the end of the year in which such transaction occurred.

Domestic Broker/Exchange Control Information. Korean residents may not be permitted to sell foreign securities (such as the shares of Common Stock) through non-Korean brokers (such as Fidelity Stock Plan Services, LLC) or deposit funds resulting from the sale of shares of Common Stock in an overseas financial institution. Therefore, prior to selling the shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, the Participant may be required to transfer such shares to a domestic investment broker. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant is solely responsible for complying with the exchange control laws in Korea including the engagement of a domestic broker. Because the exchange control regulations may change without notice, the Participant should consult with a legal advisor to ensure compliance with any exchange control regulations applicable to any aspect of their participation in the Plan.

Russia

Securities Law Notice. The Plan and all other materials the Participant may receive regarding the Restricted Stock Units and participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia. In no event will shares of Common Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units be delivered to the Participant in Russia; all shares acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units will be maintained on the Participant’s behalf outside of Russia (e.g., in a brokerage account in the United States). The shares of Common Stock to be issued upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units have not and will not be registered in Russia and, therefore, the shares of Common Stock described in any Plan documents may not be offered or placed in public circulation in Russia. The Participant is not permitted to sell shares of Common Stock directly to a Russian legal entity or resident.

Exchange Control Notice. Under exchange control regulations in Russia, the Participant may be required to repatriate certain cash amounts the Participant receives with respect to the Restricted Stock Units to Russia as soon as the Participant intends to use those cash amounts for any purpose, including reinvestment. If the repatriation requirements apply, such funds must initially be credited to the Participant through a foreign currency account at an authorized bank in Russia. After the funds are initially received in Russia, they may be further remitted to foreign banks in accordance with Russian exchange control laws.

However, the repatriation requirement may not apply with respect to cash amounts received in an account that is considered by the Central Bank of Russia to be a foreign brokerage account opened with a financial market institution other than a bank. Statutory exceptions to the repatriation requirement also may apply. The Participant should consult with his or her personal legal advisor to determine his or her exchange control obligations.

Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Information. Russian residents are required to notify Russian tax authorities within one (1) month of opening, closing or changing the details of a foreign bank or brokerage account. Russian residents also are required to report (i) the beginning and ending balances in such a foreign account each year and (ii) transactions related to such a foreign account during the year to the Russian tax authorities, on or before June 1 of the following year. The tax authorities can require the Participant to provide appropriate supporting documents related to transactions in a foreign bank account. The Participant should consult with his or her personal advisor before remitting any sale proceeds or other amounts related to the Plan (e.g., Dividend Equivalents) to Russia, as such requirements may change.

Anti-Corruption Legislation Information. Individuals holding public office in Russia, as well as their spouses and dependent children, may be prohibited from opening or maintaining a foreign brokerage or bank account and holding any securities, whether acquired directly or indirectly, in a foreign company (including shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan).

(“SFA”), or pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of, any other applicable provision(s) of the SFA.

Securities Law Notice.  The grant of the Restricted Stock Units is being made in reliance on section 273(1)(f) of the SFA, on which basis it is exempt from the prospectus and registration requirements under the SFA, and is not made to the Participant with a view to the Restricted Stock Units or underlying shares of Common Stock being subsequently offered for sale to any other party. The Plan has not been lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore.

Terms and Conditions of the Plan. This provision supplements the Terms and Conditions of the Award paragraph of the Agreement:

In accepting the Award, the Participant acknowledges that the Participant consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan.

The Participant understands that the Company, in its sole discretion, has unilaterally and gratuitously decided to grant Awards under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or a Subsidiary throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Employer on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Participant understands that the Award is granted on the assumption and condition that the Award and the shares of Common Stock issued upon settlement of the Award shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or a Subsidiary) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Participant understands that the grant of the Award would not be made to the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of an Award shall be null and void.

1 A shadow director is an individual who is not on the board of directors of a company but who has sufficient control so that the board of directors acts in accordance with the “directions or instructions” of the individual.



If a Participant’s employment is terminated for any reason (including termination by the Company or a Subsidiary without cause or another termination of employment caused directly or indirectly by the Company or a Subsidiary) other than retirement, disability, job elimination, including termination of employment by the Company due to a divestiture, each as determined in the Committee’s sole discretion, or death, the Participant forfeits all rights to the Award.

In addition, the Participant must report the inward remittance by submitting the Foreign Exchange Transaction Form to the authorized agent. If the Participant fails to comply with these obligations, the Participant may be subject to penalties assessed by the Bank of Thailand. The Participant should consult his or her personal advisor before taking any action with respect to the remittance of proceeds from the sale of shares, any cash dividends or Dividend Equivalents into Thailand.

Participants should, as prospective stockholders, conduct their own due diligence on the securities. If the Participant does not understand the contents of the Award Documents, he or she should consult an authorized financial advisor.

United Kingdom

Taxes. The following supplements the Taxes paragraph of the Agreement:

Without limitation to the Taxes paragraph of the Agreement, the Participant agrees that the Participant is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items as and when requested by the Company or the Employer or by HM Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Participant also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax–Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on the Participant’s behalf.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In such case, if the amount of any income tax due is not collected from or paid by the Participant within 90 days of the end of the UK tax year in which an event giving rise to the indemnification described above occurs, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to the Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. The Participant will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for reimbursing the Employer for the value of any employee NICs due on this additional benefit, which the Company or the Employer may recover from the Participant at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in this Agreement.
