    (g)    A Participant who has filed a payment election in accordance with this Section 5.02 may, at any time thereafter, file a subsequent election that specifies another form or time of payout, provided that:

        (1)    Any subsequent election filed less than 12 months prior to the

    date on which payment of the Participant’s Account would otherwise have commenced or been made shall be disregarded, null and void;

(2)    The date on which payment of the Participant’s Account will be made or commence under such subsequent election must be (i) at least five years later than the date on which such payment would otherwise have been made under such Participant’s original election, and (ii) no later than ten years following his/her

Retirement Date; provided, however, that in all cases, payments must begin no later than the year in which the Participant’s 75th birthday occurs for Participants who retire prior to their 75th birthday, or no later than the Participant’s Retirement Date for Participant’s who retire on or after their 75th birthday;

(3)    The form and time of payment elected under such subsequent election may not cause any payment to be paid sooner than such    payment would otherwise have been paid under such Participant’s

            original election; and

(4)    The form of payment must be one permitted under 5.02(c).

For purposes of this Section 5.02(g), an installment form of payment shall be treated as one payment. Accordingly, a Participant may elect to change his or her payment election from an installment form to a lump sum provided that such election is filed at least 12 months prior to the date on which such installment payments are scheduled to commence and provided that the lump sum is paid no earlier than the fifth anniversary of the date on which such installments were scheduled to commence.

In the event the provisions of this Section 5.02 would otherwise require that a payment be made to a Participant prior to the date specified in clause (i) or (ii) above, as applicable, such payment shall be postponed and made on the date specified in clause (i) or (ii), as applicable.

(i)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.02 (other than subsection (j) below), all amounts credited to the Account of a Participant that are attributable to Defined Contribution Retirement Plan Restoration Contributions credited pursuant to Section 4.02(a) and investments credits thereon pursuant to Section 4.02(b) shall be paid in a lump sum on the date that is the later of (i) the first day of the first quarter of a Plan Year that is six months and 10 days following such Participant’s Retirement Date or (ii) January 1 of the year following such Retirement Date.

(j)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.02, if, at the time the Participant’s payments commence under this Section 5.02, the Participant’s Account balance is $2,000 or less, such Participant’s Account shall be paid in a lump sum on such date and the Participant’s form of payment election shall be disregarded, null and void.

5.03    Withdrawals Following Termination

(a)    In the event of a Participant’s termination of employment prior to the Participant’s Retirement Age, such Participant’s Account shall be paid in a lump sum on the date that is the later of (i) the first day of the first quarter of a Plan Year that is six

months and 10 days following such termination of employment or (ii) January 1 of the year following such termination of employment.

(b)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.03, no amount shall be payable under this Section 5.03 earlier than (i) in the case of a Participant who is a Key Employee, the first day of the seventh month following the date of such Key Employee’s Separation from Service with the Corporation (as that term is defined in Section 409A of the Code), and (ii) in the case of a Participant who is a non-Key Employee, the date of such non-Key Employee’s Separation from Service with the Corporation. In the event the provisions of this Section 5.03 would otherwise require that a payment be made to a Participant prior to the date specified in clause (i) or (ii) above, as applicable, such payment shall be postponed and made on the date specified in clause (i) or (ii), as applicable.

(c)    Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the portion of a Participant’s Account that is attributable to Defined Contribution Retirement Plan Restoration Contributions (including any earnings and losses thereon) shall be paid to a Participant pursuant to this Section 5.03 only if, at the time of such Participant’s termination of employment, such Participant is a Vested Participant as that term is defined under the PPG Industries, Inc. Defined Contribution Retirement Plan. The Account of a Participant who is not a Vested Participant shall be forfeited at the same time as such Participant’s account under the PPG Industries, Inc. Defined Contribution Retirement Plan is forfeited. If such Participant is later rehired, such Participant’s Account shall be restored to the same extent that such Participant’s account under the PPG Industries, Inc. Defined Contribution Retirement Plan is restored.

5.04    Withdrawals in the event of Disability

    (a)    In the event a Participant’s Disability, such Participant’s Account shall be paid in a lump sum on the date that is the later of (i) the first day of the first quarter of a Plan Year that is six months and 10 days following the date on which such Participant is determined to be Disabled, or (ii) January 1 of the year following the year in which such Participant is determined to be Disabled.

5.05    Withdrawals Following a Participant’s Death

    (b)    The amount paid to a participant pursuant to this Section 5.06 shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy such emergency plus amounts

reasonably necessary to pay any federal, state, local or foreign taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of such payment.

(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount attributable to a Participant’s Defined Contribution Retirement Plan Restoration Contributions (including investment credits pursuant to Section 4.02(b)) shall be available for withdrawal pursuant to this Section 5.06.

5.09    Payment Delays

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, any payment to a Participant hereunder may, in the discretion of the Administrator, be delayed where (i) the Company reasonably anticipates that the Company’s deduction with respect to such payment would not be permitted due to the application of Section 162(m) of the Code, provided that the payment is made either during the Participant’s first taxable year in which the Company reasonably anticipates, or should reasonably anticipate, that if the payment is made during such year, the deduction of such payment will not be barred by application of Section 162(m) of the Code or during the period beginning with the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations

thereunder) and ending on the later of the last day of the taxable year of the Company in which the Participant Separates from Service or the 15th day of the third month following the Participant’s Separation from Service and provided, further, that all such payments that could be delayed in accordance with this clause (i) are also so delayed, or (ii) the Company reasonably anticipates that the making of the payment will violate federal securities laws or other applicable law (in which case, such payment shall be made at the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the making of the payment will not cause such violation), or (iii) the making of the payment on the date otherwise provided would jeopardize the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern, provided that payment is made during the first taxable year of the Participant in which the making of the payment would not have such effect.

6.01    Nonassignability

    (a)    Except as provided in paragraph (b) below and in Section 6.02, no person shall have any power to encumber, sell, alienate, or otherwise dispose of his/her interest under the Plan prior to actual payment to and receipt thereof by such person; nor shall the Administrator recognize any assignment in derogation of the foregoing. No interest hereunder of any person shall be subject to attachment, execution, garnishment or any other legal, equitable, or other process.

    (b)    Section 6.01(a) above shall not apply to the extent that a Participant’s interest under the Plan is alienated pursuant to a “Qualified Domestic Relations Order” (“QDRO”), as defined in §414(p) of the Code, received by the Administrator prior to January 1, 2011.

        (1)    The Administrator is authorized to adopt such procedural and substantive rules and to take such procedural and substantive actions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable to provide for the payment of amounts from the Plan to an Alternate Payee as provided in a QDRO. Such rules and actions shall be consistent with the principal purposes of the Plan.

        (2)    Under no circumstances may the Administrator accept an order as a QDRO following a Participant’s death.

        (3)    An Alternate Payee may not establish an account in the Plan. All amounts taken from a Participant’s Account, as provided in a QDRO, must be distributed as soon as possible following the acceptance of an order as a QDRO.

6.02    Beneficiary Designation

    (b)    Each time a Participant submits a new Beneficiary designation form to the Administrator, such designation shall cancel all prior designations.

    (c)    In the case of a Participant who does not have a valid Beneficiary designation on file at the time of his/her death, or in the case the designated Beneficiary predeceases the Participant, the entire balance in the Participant’s Account shall be paid as soon as possible to the Participant’s estate.

    (d)    Any Beneficiary designation with respect to a Participant in effect under the Prior Plan, shall remain in effect under this Plan, until a new Beneficiary designation form is filed in accordance with this Section 6.02.

6.03    Limited Right to Assets of the Company

    The Benefits paid under the Plan shall be paid from the general funds of the Company, and the Participants and any Beneficiary shall be no more than unsecured general creditors of the Company with no special or prior right to any assets of the Company for payment of any obligations hereunder.

6.04    Protective Provisions

    The Participant or Beneficiary shall cooperate with the Administrator by furnishing any and all information requested by the Administrator in order to facilitate the payment of benefits hereunder.

6.05    Withholding

    The Participant or Beneficiary shall make appropriate arrangements with the Administrator for satisfaction of any federal, state or local income tax withholding requirements and Social Security or other employee tax requirements applicable to the payment of benefits under the Plan. If no other arrangements are made, the Administrator may provide for such withholding and tax payments by any means he deems appropriate, in his sole discretion.

6.06    Forfeiture Provision

(a)    In the event the Company becomes aware that a Participant is engaged or employed as a business owner, employee, or consultant in any activity which is in competition with any line of business of the Corporation, or has engaged in any activity otherwise determined to be detrimental to the Company, the Administrative Subcommittee may apply any diminution or forfeiture of benefits, which is specifically approved by the Administrative Subcommittee.

    For purposes of this Section 6.06, the Administrative Subcommittee shall consist of the senior human resources officer of the Company, PPG’s Director of Payroll and Benefits, and a representative of the Law Department, as appointed by the PPG’s General Counsel, or, if not so appointed, PPG’s General Counsel. The Administrative Subcommittee shall report all of its activities to the Committee.

    (b)    LTIP and Executive Officers’ LTIP

    A Participant may forfeit any or all deferrals of Payments to which the Participant is entitled under the terms of the LTIP or Executive Officers’ LTIP held in his/her Account if the Committee determines that such forfeiture shall occur in accordance with Section 4.04 of the LTIP or Executive Officers’ LTIP, as applicable.

7.01    Administration

    (a)    The Administrator shall administer the Plan and interpret, construe and apply its provisions in accordance with its terms. The Administrator shall have the complete authority to:

        (3)    Control and manage the operation of the Plan.

    (b)    The Administrator shall have the authority to establish rules for the administration and interpretation of the Plan and the transaction of its business. The determination of the Administrator as to any disputed question shall be conclusive.

7.02    Claims

    (a)    General

        Every person receiving or claiming benefits under the Plan shall be conclusively presumed to be mentally and physically competent and of age. If the Administrator determines that such person is mentally or physically incompetent or is a minor, payment shall be made to the legally appointed guardian, conservator, or other person who has been appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction to care for the estate of such person, provided that proper proof of such appointment is furnished in a form and manner suitable to the Administrator. Any payment made under the provisions of this Section 7.02(a) shall be a complete discharge of any liability therefore under the Plan. The Administrator shall not be required to see to the proper application of any such payment.

    (b)    Non-Disability Claims

    Except as provided in Section 7.02(c) below, all claims for benefits under the Plan shall be submitted to, and within 90 days thereafter decided by, in writing, the person designated by the Company (the “Claims Reviewer”)

acting directly or through such employees of the Company as the Claims Reviewer shall designate. If the Claims Reviewer determines that an extension of time for processing the claim is required, the Claims Reviewer may extend the date by which a decision is required to 180 days after the claim is submitted provided that the Claims Reviewer provides written notice of the extension to the claimant prior to the termination of the initial 90-day period, including the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Claims Reviewer expects to render a decision.

(c)    Disability Claims

    All claims for benefits under the Plan that are based upon the Participant’s Disability (each a “Disability Claim”) shall be submitted to, and within 45 days thereafter decided in writing by, the Claims Reviewer acting directly or through such employees of the Company as the Claims Reviewer shall designate. If the Claims Reviewer determines that an extension of time for processing the Disability Claim is required, the Claims Reviewer may extend the date by which a decision is required to 75 days after the Disability Claim is submitted, provided that the Claims Reviewer provides written notice of the extension to the claimant prior to the termination of the initial 45-day period, including the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Claims Reviewer expects to render a decision. If the Claims Reviewer determines that, due to matters beyond the control of the Plan, a decision on a Disability Claim cannot be rendered within 75 days after the Disability Claim is submitted, the Claims Reviewer may extend the date by which a decision is required to 105 days after the Disability Claim is filed, provided that the Claims Reviewer notifies the claimant, prior to expiration of the 75-day period, of the circumstances requiring the extension and the date as of which the Plan expects to render a decision. In the case of any extension of the 45-day or 75-day review period, the notice of extension shall specifically explain the standards on which entitlement to a benefit is based, the unresolved issues that prevent a decision on the Disability Claim, and the additional information needed to resolve those issues, and the claimant shall be afforded at least 45 days within which to provide the specified information.

(d)    Information Provided Upon Denial of Claim (Including Disability Claims)

    Written notice of the decision on each claim (including any Disability Claim) shall be furnished reasonably promptly to the claimant. If the claim is wholly or partially denied, such written notice shall set forth (i) the specific reason or reasons for the denial, (ii) reference to the specific Plan provisions on which the denial is based, (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary, (iv) a description of the Plan’s review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA, as amended, following the denial of a claim on review, (v) in the case of a denial of a Disability Claim, if an internal rule, guideline, protocol, or other criterion was relied upon in making the adverse determination, either the specific rule, guideline, protocol, or other similar criterion or a

statement that such a rule, guideline, protocol, or other similar criterion was relied upon in denying the claim and that a copy of such rule, guideline, protocol, or other criterion will be provided free of charge to the claimant upon request.

(e)    Review of Denial of Non-Disability Claim

    Except as provided in Section 7.02(f) below, a claimant may request a review by the Claims Reviewer of a decision denying a claim in writing within 60 days following receipt of the denial. All such reviews shall be decided in writing by the Claims Reviewer within 60 days after receipt of the request for review. If the Claims Reviewer determines that an extension of time for processing the review is required, the Claims Reviewer may extend the date by which a decision is required to 120 days after the request for review is submitted provided that the Claims Reviewer provides written notice of the extension to the claimant prior to the termination of the initial 60-day period, including the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Claims Reviewer expects to render a decision.

(f)    Review of Denial of Disability Claim

    A claimant may request a review by the person designated by the Company as responsible for reviews of denied Disability Claims, which such person shall be neither the Claims Reviewer nor a person subordinate to the Claims Reviewer (the “Disability Appeals Reviewer”) of a decision denying a Disability Claim in writing within 180 days following receipt of the denial. All such reviews shall be decided in writing by the Disability Appeals Reviewer within 45 days after receipt of the request for review. If the Disability Appeals Reviewer determines that an extension of time for processing the review is required, the Disability Appeals Reviewer may extend the date by which a decision is required to 90 days after the request for review is submitted provided that the Disability Appeals Reviewer provides written notice of the extension to the claimant prior to the termination of the initial 45-day period, including the special circumstances requiring an extension of time and the date by which the Disability Appeals Reviewer expects to render a decision. If the Disability Appeals Reviewer cannot reach a decision about a claimant’s request for review because the claimant has not submitted information requested by the Disability Appeals Reviewer, the 45-day period (or 45-day extension if applicable) shall be tolled until the date on which the claimant responds to the request for additional information. The Disability Appeals Reviewer may delegate its duty to review denied Disability Claims hereunder provided that the person or entity to whom such duty is delegated shall not be the Claims Reviewer or a subordinate of the Claims Reviewer. Any review of a denied Disability Claim hereunder shall be without deference to the Claims Reviewer’s denial of the Disability Claim.

(g)    Review Procedures for All Claims

    In connection with a review of a denied claim for benefits (including a Disability Claim), a claimant shall (i) have the opportunity to submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim for benefits, and (ii) be provided, upon request and free of

charge, reasonable access to, and copies of all documents, records, and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits. The review of a denied claim shall take into account all comments, documents, records, and other information submitted by the claimant related to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial review of the claim. If a claim is denied upon review, the written notice of the denial shall specify (i) the specific reason or reasons for the denial, (ii) reference to the specific Plan provisions upon which the denial is based, and (iii) a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits.

(h)    Additional Review Procedures for Disability Claims

    

    If the denial of a Disability Claim upon review is based in whole or in part on a medical judgment the Disability Appeals Reviewer or its delegate shall consult with a health care professional who has appropriate training and experience in the field of medicine involved in the medical judgment. Such professional shall be an individual who is neither an individual who was consulted in connection with the initial denial of the Disability Claim nor the subordinate of any such individual. The Disability Appeals Reviewer or its delegate shall provide for the identification of medical or vocational experts whose advice was obtained on behalf of the Plan in connection with a denied Disability Claim without regard as to whether the advice was relied upon in making the benefit determination. If an internal rule, guideline or protocol, or other similar criterion was relied upon in denying a Disability Claim upon review, the notice denying such claim upon review shall set forth either the specific rule, guideline, protocol, or other similar criterion, or a statement that such rule, guideline, protocol, or other criterion was relied upon in denying the claim and that a copy of the rule, guideline, protocol, or other similar criterion will be provided free of charge to the claimant upon request. Any notice denying a Disability Claim upon review shall contain the following statement: “You and your plan may have other voluntary alternative dispute resolution options, such as mediation. One way to find out what may be available is to contact your local U.S. Department of Labor Office and your State insurance regulatory agency.”

(i)    Authorized Representative

    The claimant may have an authorized representative to act on the claimant’s behalf in pursuing a benefit claim or appeal of the denial of the benefit. In order for a representative to be recognized as acting on behalf of the claimant, the claimant must provide in writing to the Administrator the name, address and phone number of his authorized representative and a statement that the representative is authorized to act in his behalf concerning his claim for benefit, and if applicable, an appeal of the denial of the benefit.

8.01    Amendment of the Plan

    Except as provided in Section X, the Board or the Committee may amend the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time; however, no such amendment may decrease the amount of benefit currently accrued in Participants’ Accounts.

    Except as provided in Section X, the Administrator shall have the authority to adopt amendments to the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time, necessary for the implementation and/or administration of the Plan, which will not result in a material change to the Plan. Moreover, no such amendment by the Administrator may increase or decrease the amount of benefit currently accrued in Participants’ Accounts.

8.02    Plan Freeze

    The Committee may freeze the Plan at any time. Upon a Plan freeze pursuant to this Section 8.02, no further deferrals of Salary, Awards, Payments under the LTIP or the Executive Officers’ LTIP or Omnibus Plan Stock Awards under the Omnibus Plan shall be permitted.

8.03    Premature Income Inclusion

    In the event the Administrator determines that amounts deferred under the Plan are includable in income pursuant to Section 409A of the Code, distributions shall be made to Participants, as determined by the Administrator up to an amount not to exceed the amount included in the Participant’s income under Section 409A of the Code. The determination of the Administrator under this Section 8.03 shall be binding and conclusive.

8.04    Termination

Except as provided in Section X, the Committee may, in its discretion, terminate the Plan under any one of the following circumstances:

(a)    At any time, provided that all nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements sponsored by the Company and any company required to be aggregated with the Company under Section 414(b) and (c) of the Code that are treated, together with the Plan, as one arrangement under Section 409A of the Code, provided that (i) the termination does not occur proximate to a downturn in the financial health of the Company, (ii) no payments other than payments that would be payable under the terms of the Plan and such other arrangements if the termination had not occurred are made within 12 months of the termination of the Plan and such other arrangements, (ii) all such payments are made within 24 months of the termination of the Plan and such other arrangements, (iii) neither the Company nor any company required to be aggregated with the Company under Section 414(b) or (c) of the Code adopts a new arrangement that would, with the Plan or any such other terminated arrangement, be treated as a single arrangement under Section 409A of the Code, at any time within three years following the date of termination of the Plan and such other arrangements.

(b)    At any time during the period beginning 30 days preceding and ending 12 months following a change in control event (as that term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) (or any successor regulation)), provided that (i) all substantially similar arrangements sponsored by the Company and any company required to be aggregated with the Company under Sections 414(b) or (c) of the Code are terminated and (ii) all participants under the Plan and such other arrangements are required to receive all amounts of compensation deferred under the Plan and such other arrangements within 12 months of the date of termination of the Plan and such other arrangements.

(c)    At any time within 12 months of a dissolution of the Company taxed under Section 331 of the Code, or with the approval of a bankruptcy court pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 503(b)(1)(A), provided that the amounts deferred under the Plan are included in Participants’ gross incomes in the latest of (i) the calendar year in which the termination occurs, (ii) the first calendar year in which the payment is administratively practicable, or (iii) the first calendar year in which such amounts are vested, or, if earlier, the calendar year in which the amounts are constructively received.

    The rights and obligations of the Company under the Plan shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the successors and assigns of the Company.

9.03    Trust

    The Company shall be responsible for the payment of all benefits under the Plan. Except as otherwise required by Section X, the Company, at its discretion, may establish one or more grantor trusts for the purpose of providing for payment of benefits under the Plan.

Benefits paid to the Participant from any such trust shall be considered paid by the Company for purposes of meeting the obligations of the Company under the Plan.

Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery.

9.11    409A Compliance

Notwithstanding any other provision of this plan, the Plan shall be interpreted and administered in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

9.12     Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization

    In the event of any change in the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s voting common stock by reason of any stock dividend, stock split or similar change, a corresponding change shall be made in the number Stock Account Shares held in each Participant’s Account. In the event of any change in the outstanding shares of the Company’s voting common stock, or in the number thereof, by reason of any merger, consolidation, combination, sale of assets, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, spin-off or similar change, the Board of Directors or the Committee may make such changes in the Stock Account Shares held in each Participant’s Account as the Board or the Committee may deem to be equitable. No such change, without the consent of a Participant, may adversely affect the rights of such Participant with respect to Stock Account Shares held immediately prior to any such change, and any such change shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company and the Participants.

10.01    Payments to a Trustee

Such amount shall be paid in cash and shall be sufficient, at a minimum, to equal to all deferred amounts credited to the Investment Accounts, and the PPG Stock Account. Amounts in the PPG Stock Account shall be converted to cash on the basis of the fair market value of PPG Stock on the date of the occurrence of the Change in Control, or, if higher, within 30 days of such date.

(ii)    No Person (excluding any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination; and
