<TR>
<TD WIDTH="10%" VALIGN="top" ALIGN="left"><B>Item&nbsp;8.01</B></TD>
<TD ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top"><B>Other Matters. </B></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As previously disclosed by RPM International Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;), on
May&nbsp;31, 2010, two subsidiaries of the Company - Bondex International, Inc. (&#147;Bondex&#148;) and its parent, Specialty Products Holding Corp. (&#147;SPHC&#148;) - filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware (the &#147;Bankruptcy Court&#148;) to reorganize under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. SPHC and Bondex took this action in an effort to permanently and comprehensively resolve all pending and future asbestos-related
liability claims associated with Bondex and SPHC. As a result of the filing, all litigation related to Bondex and SPHC asbestos personal injury claims has been stayed. The objective of the bankruptcy proceedings is to enable the filing entities to
establish a section 524(g) trust accompanied by a court order that will direct all existing and future SPHC-related and Bondex-related claims to such trust, which will then compensate asbestos claimants based upon factors set forth in an approved
plan of reorganization. Since the date of the filing, and in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, the financial results of SPHC and Bondex have been deconsolidated from those of the Company. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At a hearing held on November&nbsp;13, 2013, the Bankruptcy Court granted the motion of the Official Committee of Asbestos Personal Injury Claimants and the
Future Claimants&#146; Representative (collectively, the &#147;ACC/FCR&#148;) for standing to pursue SPHC estate claims against the Company, certain of its current and former directors and executive officers, and third party advisors. As previously
disclosed, the Company anticipated that the ACC/FCR might be permitted to pursue claims on behalf of the SPHC and Bondex estates against the Company. The Company believes that the alleged SPHC estate claims are without merit and, if such claims are
made, intends to contest them vigorously. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As a further update to the bankruptcy proceedings, both SPHC and Bondex (collectively, the
&#147;Debtors&#148;), and the ACC/FCR have filed proposed plans of reorganization with the Bankruptcy Court. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Debtors&#146; proposed plan, which is
supported by the Company, would establish an asbestos trust to compensate legitimate asbestos claimants of the Debtors. The asbestos trust would be funded by two notes (one issued by SPHC and the Company as co-obligors, the other issued by Bondex
and the Company as co-obligors). The notes would provide for an initial payment of $125 million to the trust. Additional payments under the notes would be determined by the final outcome (whether by court order or settlement) of the pending
litigation of the estimated value of the Debtors&#146; asbestos claims and the anticipated litigation of the SPHC estate claims against the Company and other parties and possibly Bondex estate claims against the Company and other parties. The note
payments would be made in cash or shares of the Company&#146;s common stock. Upon consummation of the plan, SPHC and Bondex would continue to be wholly owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, respectively, of the Company and have no further
liability with respect to asbestos claims. The Company and its affiliates would likewise have no liability for such claims under the proposed plan, except as may be determined in the litigation of the SPHC and Bondex estate claims described above.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The proposed ACC/FCR plan, which is opposed by the Debtors and the Company, is an SPHC-only plan. It likewise provides for the creation of an asbestos
trust, but only for SPHC asbestos claims. Pursuant to the ACC/FCR plan, the Company&#146;s equity interest in SPHC would be cancelled, and 100% of the new stock in SPHC would be issued to the asbestos trust. Although the ACC/FCR plan would
permanently protect SPHC against current and future asbestos claims, it would provide no protection to the Company and its affiliates and would contemplate that the Company would again be subject to suit in the tort system by current and future
asbestos claimants of SPHC and Bondex. In addition, the plan would provide that the asbestos trust could sue the Company and its affiliates with respect to any claims that SPHC holds against them. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Bankruptcy Court has scheduled a hearing with respect to the two plans for December&nbsp;17, 2013. At or subsequent to that hearing, the Bankruptcy Court
may take a variety of actions, including ordering one or both of the plans to be submitted to creditors for a vote, or determining not to authorize the submission of either of the plans to a vote. A vote of the creditors is an interim step toward
the ultimate confirmation of a plan, which would remain subject to further proceedings before the Bankruptcy Court and the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the &#147;District Court&#148;), and potential appeals of actions
taken by those courts. The Debtors contend that the ACC/FCR plan is not confirmable, and the ACC/FCR have made similar contentions with respect to the Debtors&#146; plan. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At this time, we have no basis to make a determination as to whether either of the proposed plans of reorganization will be confirmed or otherwise move
forward, or as to when, or whether, a consensual resolution of the bankruptcy proceedings will be reached, or as to the terms and conditions that may be set forth in any plan of reorganization that may ultimately be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court
and the District Court, whether by agreement or otherwise. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As previously disclosed, the Bankruptcy Court issued an opinion in May 2013 estimating the
current and future asbestos claims associated with Bondex and SPHC at approximately $1.17 billion, which represented one step in the legal process in helping to determine the amount of potential funding for a 524(g) asbestos trust. The Debtors
firmly believe that the opinion substantially overstates the amount of their liability and is not supported by the facts or the law, and the Debtors and the Company have appealed the ruling. Since the Company&#146;s most recent disclosures, those
appeals have since been consolidated by the District Court and are pending in that court. The ACC/FCR have filed a motion to dismiss the appeals and the Debtors and the Company have filed a motion seeking certification of the estimation order for
direct review by the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Both motions are opposed and both remain pending. Briefing of the appeal has been stayed pending the disposition of the motions. Unless the motions to dismiss and for
certification pending in the District Court are ruled on in the near term, the Company currently expects that the appeal process could take an additional two to three years. </P>
