<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our subsidiaries manufacture, market and sell various specialty chemical product lines, including high-quality specialty paints, protective
coatings, roofing systems, sealants and adhesives, focusing on the maintenance and improvement needs of both the industrial and consumer markets. Our family of products includes those marketed under brand names such as API, Carboline, CAVE, DAP,
Dri-Eaz, Euclid, EUCO, Fibergrate, Flecto, Flowcrete, Grupo PV, Hummervoll, Universal Sealants, illbruck, Rust-Oleum, Stonhard, Toxement, Tremco, Tuf-Strand, Viapol, Watco and Zinsser. As of May&nbsp;31, 2014, our subsidiaries marketed products in
approximately 160 countries and territories and operated manufacturing facilities in approximately 94 locations in the United States, Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, France, Germany, India, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico,
The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom. Approximately 43% of our sales are generated in international markets through a combination of exports and direct
sales in foreign countries. For the fiscal year ended May&nbsp;31, 2014, we recorded net sales of $4.4 billion. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our business is divided
into two reportable segments: the industrial reportable segment (&#147;industrial segment&#148;) and the consumer reportable segment (&#147;consumer segment&#148;). Within each reportable segment, we aggregate several operating segments which
comprise individual reporting units and product lines that generally address common markets, utilize similar technologies and are able to share manufacturing or distribution capabilities. The industrial segment (Tremco Group, tremco illbruck Group,
RPM Performance Coatings Group, RPM2-Industrial Group and SPHC Group), which comprised approximately 63% (excluding the SPHC Group) of our total net sales for the fiscal year ended May&nbsp;31, 2014 and 66% (a portion of which includes the SPHC
Group) for the nine months ended February&nbsp;28, 2015, includes maintenance and protection products for roofing and waterproofing systems, flooring, corrosion control and other specialty applications. The consumer segment (Rust-Oleum Group, DAP
Group and RPM2-Consumer Group) comprised approximately 37% of our total net sales for the fiscal year ended May&nbsp;31, 2014 and 34% for the nine months ended February&nbsp;28, 2015, and includes rust-preventative, special purpose and decorative
paints, caulks, sealants, primers, nail enamels and other branded consumer products. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On May&nbsp;31, 2010, Bondex International, Inc. and
its parent, SPHC, voluntarily filed Chapter 11 reorganization proceedings in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. SPHC is our wholly owned subsidiary. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (&#147;ASC&#148;)
810, when a subsidiary becomes subject to the control of a government, court, administrator, or regulator, deconsolidation of that subsidiary is generally required. We had therefore deconsolidated SPHC and its subsidiaries from our balance sheet as
of May&nbsp;31, 2010, and had eliminated the results of SPHC&#146;s operations from our results of operations beginning on that date. Effective as of December&nbsp;23, 2014, the United States Bankruptcy Court in Delaware and the United States
District Court in Delaware confirmed the Bankruptcy Plan for SPHC and related entities and these entities emerged from bankruptcy. Accordingly, financial results of SPHC&#146;s operating subsidiaries, which have not been included in our financial
reports since the bankruptcy filing, have been reconsolidated with our results as of January&nbsp;1, 2015, and will be included in our results going forward. As a result, SPHC and its subsidiaries is reflected as an additional operating segment
within the industrial reportable segment, beginning with our fiscal 2015 third quarter results. </P>

<TD ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top"> <P ALIGN="left" STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:9pt">EBIT is defined as earnings (loss) before interest and taxes, while EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization. We evaluate the profit performance of our segments based on income before income taxes, but also look to EBIT as a performance evaluation measure because interest expense is essentially related to corporate acquisitions, as opposed to
segment operations. For that reason, we believe EBIT is also useful to investors as a metric in their investment decisions. EBIT should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, operating income as determined in accordance with
GAAP, since EBIT omits the impact of interest and taxes in determining operating performance, which represent items necessary to our continued operations, given our level of indebtedness and ongoing tax obligations. We evaluate our liquidity based
on cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as defined by GAAP, but also look to EBITDA as a supplemental liquidity measure, because we find it useful to understand and evaluate our capacity, excluding the impact of interest,
taxes, and non-cash depreciation and amortization charges, for servicing our debt and otherwise meeting our cash needs, prior to our consideration of the impacts of other potential sources and uses of cash, such as working capital items. We believe
that EBITDA is useful to investors for these purposes as well. EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash flows from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP, since it omits the impact of
interest, taxes and changes in working capital that use/provide cash (such as receivables, payables and inventories) as well as the sources/uses of cash associated with changes in other balance sheet items (such as long-term loss accruals and
deferred items). Since EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for the replacement of the assets being depreciated and amortized, which assets will often have to be replaced in the future.
Further, EBITDA, since it also does not reflect the impact of debt service, cash dividends or capital expenditures, does not represent how much discretionary cash we have available for other purposes. Nonetheless, EBIT and EBITDA are key measures
expected by and useful to our fixed income investors, rating agencies and the banking community all of whom believe, and we concur, that these measures are critical to the capital markets&#146; analysis of (i)&nbsp;our segments&#146; core

supplement and the accompanying prospectus, before investing in the notes. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business could be harmed. You should refer to the other information set forth or incorporated by reference in this
prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the &#147;Risk Factors&#148; sections of our Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the year ended May&nbsp;31, 2014 and our Quarterly Report on Form&nbsp;10-Q for the quarter ended
February&nbsp;28, 2015 and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The notes represent unsecured obligations of RPM. Accordingly, holders of our secured indebtedness will have claims that are superior to your
claims as holders of the notes to the extent of the value of the assets securing that other indebtedness. The notes are also effectively subordinated to any existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries. We or our subsidiaries may incur
substantial additional indebtedness in the future, which may be senior to the notes. The terms of the notes do not impose any limitation on us or our subsidiaries&#146; ability to incur such additional debt. </P>

bankruptcy proceeding, our secured creditors will have a superior claim to those of our assets that constitute their collateral. If any of the foregoing events occur, we cannot assure you that there will be sufficient assets to pay amounts due on
the notes. Holders of the notes will participate ratably with all holders of our other unsecured senior indebtedness, and with all of our other general senior creditors, based upon the respective amounts owed to each holder or creditor, in our
remaining assets. As a result, holders of the notes may receive less, ratably, than our secured creditors. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of February&nbsp;28, 2015,
our total consolidated indebtedness was $1,868.1&nbsp;million, of which an aggregate of $152.5&nbsp;million was secured indebtedness of our subsidiaries including indebtedness under our Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility, and our
subsidiaries had $314.1&nbsp;million of indebtedness ($150.0&nbsp;million of which is owed by our RPM United Kingdom G.P. subsidiary (guaranteed by the Company), $11.7&nbsp;million of which is related to subsidiary borrowings under our revolving
credit facility (guaranteed by the Company) and $2.5&nbsp;million of which is related to various mortgages, lines of credit or notes payable held by our subsidiaries). After giving effect to the issuance of the notes and the use of proceeds
therefrom, our total consolidated indebtedness would have been $1,872.4&nbsp;million. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>We are a Holding Company and we Depend upon Cash from our

repurchase all outstanding notes at 101% of the principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. The source of funds for that repurchase of notes will be our available cash or cash generated from our
subsidiaries&#146; operations or other potential sources, including borrowings, sales of assets or sales of equity. We cannot assure you that sufficient funds from those sources will be available at the time of any change of control triggering event
to make required repurchases of notes tendered. In addition, the terms of our credit agreement provide that specified change of control events constitute an event of default under the credit agreement. Our future debt agreements may contain similar
restrictions and provisions. If the holders of the notes exercise their right to require us to repurchase all their notes upon a change of control triggering event, the financial effect of such a repurchase could cause a default under our other debt
agreements, even if the change of control itself would not cause a default under those agreements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Accordingly, it is possible that we

nonconvertible debt interest rate. Upon issuance, a debt discount is recognized as a decrease in debt and an increase in equity. The debt component accretes up to the principal amount over the expected term of the debt. ASC 470-20 does not affect
the actual amount that we are required to repay, and the amount shown in the table above for the notes is the aggregate principal amount of the notes without reflecting the debt discount or fees and expenses that we are required to recognize or the
increase in additional paid-in capital. The effective interest rate on the liability component is 3.92%. Contractual interest was $3.5 million and amortization of the debt discount was $2.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2015. At
February&nbsp;28, 2015, the remaining period over which the debt discount will be amortized was 6.0 years, the unamortized debt discount was $17.5 million, and the carrying amount of the equity component was $20.7 million. </TD></TR></TABLE>

elect to amortize such premium (as an offset to interest income), using a constant-yield method, over the remaining term of the note. Such election, once made, generally applies to all debt instruments held or subsequently acquired by the U.S.
Holder on or after the first taxable year to which the election applies and may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS. A U.S. Holder that elects to amortize such premium must reduce its tax basis in the note by the amount of the premium
amortized during its holding period. With respect to a U.S. Holder that does not elect to amortize bond premium, the amount of bond premium is included in the U.S. Holder&#146;s tax basis in the note. </P>

the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition (collectively, a &#147;disposition&#148;) of a note, a U.S.&nbsp;Holder generally will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount received on such

be, in general, the cost of the note to the U.S.&nbsp;Holder reduced by any principal payments with respect to the note received by the U.S. Holder. Gain or loss realized on the disposition of a note generally will be capital gain or loss and will
be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of such disposition, the note has been held for more than one year. Otherwise, such gain or loss generally will be short-term capital gain or loss. Net long-term capital gain recognized by a

make an offer to each holder of the notes to repurchase all or any part of the notes for an amount equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest. If such a repurchase was expected to occur
prior to the fifth anniversary of the issuance of the notes, the repurchase of the notes at 101% would result in the notes being treated as issued with more than de minimis original issue discount. The Company intends to take the position that, for
purposes of the application of the original issue discount rules in Sections&nbsp;1271 through 1275 of the Code, the likelihood of a Change of Control Triggering Event occurring prior to the fifth anniversary is a remote contingency. Accordingly,
the possibility of the notes being repurchased prior to the fifth anniversary of the issue date of the notes for 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such notes will be disregarded for tax purposes and will not result in the notes being treated
as issued with original issue discount. Pursuant to Treasury Regulation section&nbsp;1.1275-2(h)(5), the Company&#146;s determination that such possibility is a remote contingency is binding on all holders for tax purposes unless a holder explicitly
discloses to the IRS that its determination is different than the Company&#146;s determination. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Tax on Net Investment Income </B></P>

certain threshold (which in the case of individuals will be between $125,000 and $250,000, depending on the individual&#146;s circumstances). A U.S. holder&#146;s net investment income will generally include its interest income (including original
issue discount) and its net gains from the disposition of notes, unless such interest income or net gains are derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of a trade or business (other than a trade or business that consists of certain passive or
trading activities). If you are a U.S. holder that is an individual, estate, or trust, you are urged to consult your independent tax advisor regarding the applicability of the net investment income tax to your income and gains in respect of your

Alternatively, an exemption applies to the 30% United States withholding tax if the interest is effectively connected with the Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holder&#146;s conduct of a trade or business in the United States (or if an income tax treaty applies, is
attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holder in the United&nbsp;States) and the Non-U.S.&nbsp;Holder provides an appropriate statement to that effect on a properly executed IRS Form&nbsp;W-8ECI (or

information regarding U.S. account holders of such institution (which would include certain equity and debt holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S. owners) or meets other exemptions or
(ii)&nbsp;a foreign entity that is not a financial institution, unless such entity provides the applicable withholding agent with a certification identifying any substantial U.S. owners of the entity (as defined for this purpose) or meets other
exemptions. Foreign entities located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing these withholding and reporting requirements may be subject to different rules. If FATCA withholding is imposed, a
beneficial owner may under certain circumstances be eligible for a refund or credit of any amounts withheld by filing certain information with the IRS. Prospective investors should consult with their own independent tax advisors regarding the

underwriters&#146; right to reject any order in whole or in part. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Notes sold by the underwriters to the public initially will be offered
at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus supplement. Any notes sold by the underwriters to securities dealers may be sold at the applicable public offering price less a concession not in excess of 0.500% of the
principal amount of notes. The underwriters may allow, and such securities dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of 0.350% of the principal amount of the notes to certain other brokers or dealers. If all the notes are not sold at the
applicable public offering price, the underwriters may change such offering price and the other selling terms. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The notes are a new issue
of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to apply for the listing of the notes on any securities exchange or for the quotation of the notes in any dealer quotation system. We have been advised that the representatives
intend to make a market in the notes, but they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue such market-making at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for the notes or that an active public
market for the notes will develop. If an active public trading market for the notes does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the notes may be adversely affected. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with the offering, the representatives may purchase and sell the notes in the open market. These transactions may include short
sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the representatives of a greater number of notes than they are required to purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions
consist of certain bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes while the offering is in progress. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The representatives may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the representatives a portion of the
underwriting discount received by it because a representative has repurchased notes sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions. </P>

imposition of the penalty bid, may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the notes. As a result, the price of the notes may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are
commenced, they may be discontinued by the underwriters at any time without notice. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise. </P>

Securities to which any prospectus supplement may relate. The particular terms of the Debt Securities offered by any prospectus supplement and the extent, if any, to which such general provisions may apply to the Debt Securities so offered will be
described in the prospectus supplement relating to such Debt Securities. Accordingly, for a description of the terms of a particular issue of Debt Securities, reference must be made to both the prospectus supplement relating thereto and to the
following description. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Debt Securities will be issued under an indenture (the &#147;Indenture&#148;) dated as of April&nbsp;8, 2014,
between us and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the &#147;Trustee&#148;). As used in this prospectus, &#147;Debt Securities&#148; means the debentures, notes, bonds and other evidences of indebtedness that we issue and the Trustee
authenticates and delivers under the Indenture. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have summarized certain terms and provisions of the Indenture in this section. The

references to section numbers of the Indenture so that you can more easily locate these provisions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this summary have the meanings specified in the Indenture. </P>

holders of any Debt Securities protection in a highly leveraged or other transaction involving us that may adversely affect holders of the Debt Securities. </P>

is the case with securities held for customer accounts registered in &#147;Street Name,&#148; and will be the sole responsibility of those participants. Book-entry Debt Securities may be more difficult to pledge because of the lack of a physical
note. So long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of a global security, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner and holder of the Debt Securities represented by that global security for all purposes of
such Debt Securities. Owners of beneficial interests in such Debt Securities will not be entitled to have Debt Securities registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of such Debt Securities in definitive
form and will not be considered owners or holders of the Debt Securities under the Indenture. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a global security must rely on the procedures of DTC and, if that person is not a DTC participant,
on the procedures of the participant through which that person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder of the Debt Securities. The laws of some jurisdictions require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of the
