BRIAN D. CHAMBERS

Chair and Chief Executive Officer

Dear Fellow Stockholders:

Owens Corning delivered outstanding results for our customers, stockholders, and communities in 2022. In addition to achieving record financial performance – across all of our businesses – and outperforming the markets we serve, we continued to reinforce our future by strengthening the earnings power of our company and advancing our enterprise strategy to drive continued growth. These accomplishments were driven and delivered by our most valuable asset: our 19,000 employees across the globe.

An Outstanding Year

While we saw the COVID-19 pandemic begin to recede in most regions during 2022, some of its impacts – and a number of parallel challenges – did not. Over the course of the fee is offsetyear, many of our end markets began to reset as providedthe marketplace adjusted to a changing macro-economic environment that included the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, significant inflation, labor challenges, and ongoing supply chain disruptions.

Our global team demonstrated resolve and resourcefulness in the face of these challenges. Executing at a high level, we delivered great financial results propelled by Exchange Act Rule 0-11(a)(2)our strong customer partnerships, unique product and identifyprocess innovation, and robust manufacturing capabilities.

As a result of these efforts, we achieved record revenue with strong earnings, and record free cash flow, positioning us favorably to drive future investment.

During the filing for which the offsetting fee was paid previously. Identify the previous filing by registration statement number, or the Form or Scheduleyear, we returned $931 million to stockholders through dividends and the dateshare repurchases. And in December, we announced an approximately 50% dividend increase, along with a new authorization to repurchase up to 10 million additional shares. These results demonstrated our commitment to maintaining our investment-grade balance sheet and to returning approximately 50% of its filing.free cash flow to stockholders over time through dividends and share repurchases.

 (1)Amount Previously Paid:     LOGO   

In pursuing these achievements, we never compromised on our unconditional commitment to safety. We continued to deliver world-class safety performance in 2022 with a recordable incident rate of 0.65. And we are proud that one-half of our global sites were injury-free in 2022. This performance, which has earned us a place among the safest companies in the industry, reflects our caring for one another and inspires our unrelenting pursuit of an injury-free workplace.

As we outperformed the market in the near-term, we also continued to invest and take actions to build Owens Corning for the future.

Progress in Building a Sustainable Future Through Material Innovation

In 2021, we introduced our enterprise strategy to drive continued growth. Our strategy redefines where we play to expand our addressable markets with a focus on three strategic priorities: strengthening our position in core products and markets; expanding into new product adjacencies that leverage our materials science, market, and manufacturing expertise; and developing more multimaterial and prefabricated construction solutions.


Embedded in our strategy is a series of strategic choices that are driving our performance and growth:

•    Strengthening our market leadership in building and construction applications.

•    Broadening our sustainability leadership by investing in customer and circular economy solutions.

•    Accelerating product and process innovation with our material science and manufacturing expertise.

•    Expanding into new product lines and material solutions, increasing our total addressable market.

•    Delivering above-market growth with sustainable mid-teen margins growing revenues to $10 billion by 2024.

Owens Corning made substantial progress in each of these five areas in 2022.

We reinforced our market leadership with share gains in several product lines and strengthened partnerships with our customers. We also continued to make investments to expand manufacturing capacity and increase productivity. These investments included adding needed capacity in several product lines to support additional growth.

Our sustainability leadership continues to generate multiple advantages by creating growth opportunities and helping to fulfill our purpose: Our people and products make the world a better place. During the past year, we furthered our progress toward our 2030 goals by embracing the imperative to “operationalize” sustainability. We believe driving sustainability even deeper into our organization – especially on the manufacturing floor – will unlock new opportunities to leverage the passion and expertise of our global team.

Additionally, we continued to translate our material science expertise into new products as evidenced by our range of sustainability-focused customer solutions including FOAMULAR® NGX insulation, PINK Next Gen Fiberglas, and PINKBAR®+ Fiberglas rebar.

And in November, we announced enhanced shingle recycling efforts including a pilot asphalt shingle recycling partnership that will serve to advance our circular economy aspiration by keeping shingles out of landfills. By 2030, the company intends to recycle two million tons of shingles annually in the U.S.

Investing in and leveraging our core innovation strengths is critical to accelerating product and process innovation. As material innovators, product and process development is critical to how we

drive growth, improve our operating performance, and create additional value for our customers. During 2022, the company launched more than 50 new or refreshed products spanning many of the core platforms in our Roofing, Insulation, and Composites businesses. Our continued progress in developing new and refreshed product lines demonstrates our ability to transform customer insights into new functionality and solutions that promote growth. In addition, we committed substantial investments to build our technical capabilities with new labs and pilot functionality.

 

 

We also made significant progress in expanding into new product lines and material solutions. During 2022, we acquired WearDeck®, a premium producer of composite weather-resistant decking and structural lumber for commercial and residential applications, and Natural Polymers, an innovative manufacturer of spray polyurethane foam insulation for building and construction applications.

 

Collectively, these investments support our growth strategy and our mission to build a sustainable future through material innovation.

Along with our investments, we took actions to strengthen and expand existing product lines. In Composites, we announced a new joint-venture with Pultron Composites, a producer of our industry-leading fiberglass rebar, and acquired the remaining 50% interest in Fiberteq, our U.S.-based joint venture producing high-value non-woven fiberglass mat for roofing applications.

These moves support our pivot in Composites into higher value, more capital-efficient applications focused on building and construction, renewable energy, and infrastructure, all of which leverage our core glass-fiber technology.

As our results demonstrated, we capitalized on our market opportunities to deliver above-market growth. The consistency of our performance, even amid shifting market conditions, reinforces the strength of our company today and the growth opportunities we are creating for the future.


Our People and Products Make the World a Better Place

Of all our attributes and assets, none is more valuable than our people, who compose what I believe is the best team in the industry. It is the daily efforts of our 19,000 people in 31 countries who bring our strategy to life through their engagement, ingenuity, and unwavering commitment to our customers’ success.

 

We continue to hone our competitive edge by investing in the development of our talent and fostering an inclusive and diverse culture that enables us to attract, develop, and retain the very best talent in the world.

Our people and company also continued to make an impact in the communities in which we work and live. In 2022, this impact was evidenced by substantial volunteerism and giving, including 80 roof replacements for veterans in need, $1.3 million in product donations, and $365,000 donated to help those impacted by the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. In addition, the Owens Corning Foundation committed $8.7 million in 2022 to advance equity and equality in our communities.

Filing Party:

It is the daily efforts of our 19,000 people in 31 countries who bring our strategy to life through their engagement, ingenuity, and unwavering commitment to our customers’ success.

Well-Positioned for 2023 – and Beyond

Our performance in 2022 further positioned Owens Corning to continue delivering exceptional results, even amid changing conditions. Challenging times create great opportunities to differentiate our company. And we look forward to demonstrating the enduring nature of our strategy and performance by continuing to create opportunities, deliver value, and outperform the market in 2023 and beyond.

In closing, I invite you to join us for our virtual Annual Meeting of Stockholders at 9:00 a.m. ET on April 20, 2023. On this date, you may access a webcast of the meeting at: www.virtualstockholdermeeting.com/OC2023.

The Company works to continually improve its operations.

BUILDING A STRONGER COMPANY GUIDED BY A NEW GROWTH STRATEGY

In 2021, the Company launched a growth strategy, which is rooted in its mission of building a sustainable future through material innovation, and significantly expands its current addressable markets by capitalizing on key secular trends to create new opportunities and is expected to generate stronger, more consistent financial results and position the Company for the future. This is expected to be accomplished by:

 

Strengthening the Company’s position in core products and markets;

E-1 

Expanding into new product adjacencies that leverage its materials science, market, and manufacturing expertise; and

Developing more multimaterial and prefabricated construction solutions.

Through this strategy and a disciplined financial approach, the Company strives to strengthen its financial performance and improve total stockholder return, including revenue and profit growth, free cash flow generation and conversion, and greater resilience of its performance through the cycle. The Company’s long-term capital allocation strategy also focuses on increasing stockholder return by ensuring a strong, investment-grade balance sheet; maintaining safe, sustainable, and productive operations; investing in targeted growth opportunities; and returning capital to stockholders in dividends and share repurchases.

DEVELOPING HIGH-PERFORMING TEAMS TO EXECUTE ON COMPANY COMMITMENTS

None of this would be possible without high-performing teams that are diverse, engaged, talented, and aligned with the Company’s goals and strategy.

EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE AND RELATED OBJECTIVES

The Company focuses on employee performance, development, succession planning, and turnover. Management strives to have clear objectives, effective performance management, and a structure that includes regular talent reviews, succession planning, development, and compensation analysis.

INCLUSION AND DIVERSITY

The Company believes its success is driven by an inclusive and diverse workforce, adding value to the business through an environment that leads to high engagement and promotes innovative thinking in the workplace. The Company operates programs that foster gender and ethnic diversity, and other forms of diversity, as well as equality within its workforce, including supporting nine employee-led affinity groups, so its employees feel valued and appreciated for the distinct voices they bring to the team.

Consistent with its commitment to “equal pay for equal work,” the Company has implemented a robust pay equity system, which includes multiple processes and controls that are executed during its hiring and annual merit review to prevent pay equity gaps from occurring. We ensure the success of our system by performing a biennial pay equity review with the assistance of a third-party vendor who utilizes a strong, statistical analysis of pay equity across its global salaried workforce. The Company promptly remediates all identified and substantiated pay gaps through pay increases. Further, the Company has implemented processes and policies to avoid inheriting unequal pay bias of prior employers. More information about our pay equity program may be found at https://www.owenscorning.com/corporate/sustainability.1

Lastly, we are proud that the Company’s employees contribute many service hours to boards, special causes, and nonprofit organizations in the communities where they live and work. These programs enable the Company’s employees to connect with the community, further enhance its reputation locally and globally, and instill pride in the workforce. In 2022, the Company and the Owens Corning Foundation donated $7.6 million of cash and products to support healthy communities, safe housing, education, workforce development, and social and racial equity.

The Audit Committee receives updates on cybersecurity risks from the Company’s Chief Information Officer at least twice per year. The Audit Committee reviews how the Company is executing against its comprehensive cybersecurity framework, including reviewing the Company’s cybersecurity reporting protocol. From time to time, the Audit Committee may receive additional updates on efforts regarding data loss prevention, regulatory compliance, data privacy, threat and vulnerability management, cyber-crisis management, or other topics, as applicable. In 2023, management began providing the Audit Committee with a cybersecurity dashboard, which the full Board can access.

The Company periodically has external information security assessments performed by third parties to verify our internal assessment results and to stay current on information security risks. Over the past five fiscal years, the Company has on average, completed multiple such assessments per year. The Company also maintains an information security training program that encompasses the following areas: phishing and email security, password security, data handling security, cloud security, operational technology (OT) security processes, and cyber-incident response and reporting processes. The Company’s security program has historically provided training and information security awareness to the following groups of individuals: salaried employees, new hires, people with access to confidential information or personal data, operational technology administrators, executives, and cyber-incident responders.

Over the last three fiscal years, the Company did not experience any information security breach that had a material impact on its business. The Company does manage minor information security issues from time to time as part of its routine operations.

This internal group identifies risks and mitigation strategies, and it provides key updates to executive officers and the Audit Committee.

We currently have an enterprise risk register and sub-registers for each of our three businesses, as well as compliance and finance. The Risk Committee provides periodic updatesuses these individual risk registers to create an enterprise risk register, which enables business units and the Risk Committee to facilitate strategic and operational planning processes while mitigating sustainability and other risks.

Each of the standing Committeescommittees of our Board of Directors acts pursuant to a charter that has been approved by our Board. These charters are updated periodically and can be found on the Company’s website at http://www.owenscorning.com and will be made available in print upon request by any stockholder to the Secretary of the Company.

Director Service on Other Public BoardsDIRECTOR SERVICE ON OTHER PUBLIC BOARDS (OVERBOARDING POLICY)

The Corporate Governance Guidelines state that directors who are employed full time as executives shall not serve on more than threetwo publicly traded company boards (including service on the Company’s Board) and other directors shall not serve on more than fivefour boards of publicly-tradedpublicly traded companies (including service on the Company’s Board). This is to ensure that our directors devote adequate time for preparation and attendance at Board and Committeecommittee meetings, including the Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The Company’s Audit Committee Charter states that no director may serve as a member of the Audit Committee if such director serves on the audit committees of more than two other publicly traded companies, unless the Board determines that such simultaneous service would not impair the ability of such director effectively to serve on the Audit Committee. The Corporate Governance Guidelines also state that directors should provide notice and submit a letter of resignation prior to assuming significant new job responsibilities or accepting positions on additional public or private company boards. The director’s letter of resignation is then considered by the Governance and Nominating Committee. As such, the Board maintains processes to review and approve directors’ membership on additional public company boards, even if those directors are still within the overboarding limits mentioned above.

The Audit CommitteeOur Board believes that each of our directors, including each of our director nominees, has demonstrated the ability to devote sufficient time and attention to Board duties and to otherwise fulfill the responsibilities required of directors. However, we understand that certain institutional investors may deem Ms. Mannen overboarded based on her role as chief financial officer at Marathon Petroleum Corporation (“MPC”) and her service on the board of MPLX GP LLC (“MPLX”) in addition to her service on our Board. MPLX is a wholly owned subsidiary of MPC and is the general partner and majority owner of MPLX LP, a publicly traded limited partnership. Due to tax efficiencies, the MPC/MPLX structure has been in place for over a decade and the underlying business is highly integrated. Ms. Mannen’s MPLX board membership is integral to her role as chief financial officer at MPC. Thus, we do not view Ms. Mannen’s service on the MPLX board as an additional board obligation, but an extension of her role as chief financial officer. Accordingly, our Board does not believe that Ms. Mannen’s other commitments limit her ability to devote sufficient time and attention to her duties as a director of the Company.

Promptly upon recognition of the oversight, the transaction was reported on a Form 4 filed on July 28, 2015.

Executive Compensation*

Compensation Discussion and AnalysisEXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In this section of the Proxy Statement, we explain and discuss our 2022 executive compensation philosophyprogram. This discussion is intended to describe our compensation policies and describeto provide a review of our compensation decisions for 2022. Our goal is to provide a better understanding, both in absolute terms and analyzerelative to our performance, of our executive compensation practices and the decisions made concerning the compensation programpayable to our Named Executive Officers (“NEOs”) listed in the “2022 Summary Compensation Table” below.

OUR PERFORMANCE

In 2022, the Company achieved record revenues and increased cash flow generation, expanded operating margins, and continued to deliver strong adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (“adjusted EBIT”)* amid dynamic market conditions. Our global teams continued to demonstrate their commitment and resilience by servicing our customers and delivering strong financial results against the backdrop of dynamic market conditions, including ongoing supply chain disruptions, regional impacts of COVID-19, and inflation. As the year progressed, we saw many of our end markets beginning to reset, adjusting to a changing macro-economic environment with higher inflation, higher interest rates, and continued uncertainty in Europe created by the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Despite these challenges, our team leveraged strong customer partnerships, unique product and process innovation, and resilient supply chain and manufacturing performance to deliver outstanding results.

Throughout our Company – in every region – we continued to differentiate ourselves and build market-leading positions to grow our Company, help our customers win in the market, and deliver value to our stockholders. Our global team executed at an extremely high level in 2022, delivering strong commercial and operational performance in support of our growth strategy and in service of our mission to build a sustainable future through material innovation.

During the year, we made significant investments to accelerate the Company’s growth and generate higher, more resilient earnings by executing our strategy to strengthen our core businesses and expand into new products and applications that leverage our market knowledge, material science expertise, and manufacturing capabilities. We also invested in organic growth through new product and process innovation, as well as targeted capacity additions. This progress on key strategic initiatives during the year enabled the Company to outperform the market, while positioning us for Michael H. Thaman,sustainable long-term performance.

As described in this section, we believe compensation should align with and enhance long-term stockholder value. Given our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”); Michael C. McMurray, our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”); and Arnaud P. Genis (our Group President, Composites), Daniel T. Smith (our Senior Vice President, Organization & Administration), and Brian Chambers (our President, Roofing & Asphalt), who collectively were our next three most highly paid executive officers (collectively “named executive officers” or “NEOs”) for 2015. More specifically, we explain how our Board’s Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) determinesunderlying pay-for-performance philosophy, a significant portion of compensation for our senior executives is “at-risk”and its rationalereflects our performance. In 2022, this resulted in maximum performance for specific 2015 decisionsour short-term incentive plan, and above-target performance for our long-term incentive plan.

OUR PEOPLE

At our Company, our leaders are focused on growth – growth of our Company and our talent, as well as our contributions to the named executive officers. communities in which we work and live. This focus on growth is a common thread through all that we do, including our ongoing dedication to talent development that has shaped the leaders we invest in and promote. Our leaders are accountable to drive results, build connections, and explore new ideas to execute on our growth agenda. They do so with an unwavering commitment to embracing inclusion and diversity to enable high-performing teams, continually enhance our positive work environment, and develop and retain outstanding talent.

We also discuss several changes the Committee has made to our program over the past year to advance its fundamental objective of aligning our named executive officers’ compensationprovide you with the long-term interestsfollowing information concerning the objectives, principles, decisions, material elements, processes, amounts, and rationale underlying the compensation of Owens Corning’s stockholders.our NEOs.

2015 Company Performance

In 2015, Owens Corning delivered the largest improvement in adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (“Adjusted EBIT”)** in the Company’s history with all three businesses—Composites, Insulation, and Roofing—making substantial contributions to earnings. Overall improvement was driven by positive macro-economic trends as well as strong commercial and operational execution, despite currency headwinds. Key accomplishments in 2015 include:

Owens Corning delivered a year-over-year improvement in safety performance, with a Recordable Incident Rate of 0.52. The severity of our injuries continues to decrease. Our goal is to achieve and maintain injury-free workplaces across our Company.

Insulation delivered its 18th consecutive quarter of EBIT*** improvement, earning $160 million for the year. This represents a $52 million increase over 2014, driven by improved pricing, higher volumes and operational leverage.15, 2023.

Response to Say-on-Pay Vote and Stockholder Outreach in 2015OUR STOCKHOLDER OUTREACH

In 2015, we provided our stockholders with the opportunity to, on an advisory basis, approve or vote against the 2014 compensation of our NEOs (“say-on-pay”). Approximately 88% of the votes cast approved the NEOs’ compensation, following a stockholder outreach campaign and various changes to our executive compensation program, described below. We areremain committed to ensuring thattransparency and two-way communication with our investors fullyso that they understand our executive compensation program, including how it aligns the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders, and how it rewards the achievement of our strategic objectives. We also want to understand what our stockholders think about executive compensation, beyond the say-on-pay vote. To this end,compensation.

In 2022, we established acontinued our stockholder outreach program in order to maintainunder which we provide consistent, periodic opportunities for communication with our investors regardingto provide their perspectives on our executive compensation and ESG programs.

25% performance share units based upon relative total shareholder return versus the S&P Building & Construction Select Industry Index over a three year period;Additional details and

40% restricted stock which vests ratably over four years.

Change in Control Tax Gross-Up Provision: The CEO was the only executive with an excise tax gross up provision in his severance agreement, which was implemented in 2007. Based upon input from stockholders and our review of best practices, this feature was removed from his agreement.

Anti-Hedging/Anti-Pledging Policy: The Committee has adopted an “anti-pledging” policy applicable to Directors and officers of the Company and updated its existing “anti-hedging” policy.

Key 2015 Named Executive Officer Compensation Highlights

Base Salary: The Committee approved, based upon its review of market competitive practices and 2014 performance, the following base salary increases for 2015: 2.75% for Mr. Thaman; 5.9% for Mr. McMurray; 3.6% for Mr. Genis; and 6.2% for Mr. Smith. Mr. Chambers’ base salary was not increased during 2015 due to his recent promotion to President, Roofing & Asphalt.

Annual Incentive Award:The Committee determined, based on 2015 Company and individual performance, the NEOs’ annual incentive awards for 2015 at the following percentages of target: 155% for Mr. Thaman; 155% for Mr. McMurray; 161% for Mr. Genis; 155% for Mr. Smith; and 153% for Mr. Chambers.

Long-Term Incentive Awards:Owens Corning annually makes grants of long-term incentives (“LTI”) at its February Committee meeting. The 2013-2015 Performance Share Units granted in 2013 used total stockholder return performance versus the companies in the S&P 500 as its performance criteria. Over the three-year performance period, Owens Corning’s stock performed at the 35th percentile versus the comparator group, which provided funding at 40% of target for those grants held by the NEOs. In addition, the Committee provided the NEOs with the following aggregate value of LTI grants in 2015, as further described below: $4,440,000 for Mr. Thaman; $1,100,000 for Mr. McMurray; $1,200,000 for Mr. Genis; $900,000 for Mr. Smith; and $700,000 for Mr. Chambers.

Executive Compensation Practices

We continually monitor the evolution of rationale for 2022 compensation best practices. Some of the most important practices incorporated into our program include the following:

Review of Pay versus Performance.The Committee continually reviews the relationship between compensation and Company performance.

Median Compensation Targets.All compensation elements for our executivesdecisions are initially targeted at the median of our competitive marketplace for talent.

Performance Metrics.The Committee annually reviews performance goals for our annual and long-term incentive plans to assure the use of challenging, but fair metrics and targets. Additionally, the Committee reviews the cost of our plans at various performance levels to ensure that stockholders are appropriately benefiting from performance outcomes.

Clawback of Compensation.If the Board of Directors determines that a NEO has engaged in fraud, willful misconduct, or a violation of Company policy that caused or otherwise contributed to the need for a material restatement of the Company’s financial results, the Committee will review all performance-based compensation, including cash incentive awards and all forms of equilty-based

compensation, awarded to or earned by that NEO during the respective fiscal periods affected by the restatement. If the Committee determines that performance-based compensation would have been materially lower if it had been based on the restated results, the Committee will seek recoupment from the NEO as it deems appropriate based on a consideration of the facts and circumstances, and applicable laws and policies.

Meaningful Share Ownership Guidelines.Our share ownership requirements are rigorous: six times base salary for the CEO, and three times base salary for other NEOs.

No Hedging.Owens Corning does not allow directors and NEOs to enter into short sales of common stock or similar transactions where potential gains are linked to a decline in the price of our shares. Recipients of equity awards also may not enter into any agreement that has the effect of transferring or exchanging any economic interest in an award for any other consideration.

No Pledging.Effective January 1, 2016, directors and NEOs, as well as all officers of the Company, are prohibited from pledging Company securities as collateral for a loan or holding Company securities in a margin account.

No Repricing.Stock option exercise prices are set to equal the grant date market price and may not be reduced or replaced with stock options with a lower exercise price.

Market-Competitive Retirement Programs.We eliminated defined benefit pension benefits for salaried employees hired after January 1, 2010 and froze existing salaried pension benefits to future accruals at the same time. Our NEOs participate in the Company’s 401(k) plan and are eligible for a Company match on amounts in excess of statutory limits.

No Perquisites.Our NEOs participate in the same benefit plans as our salaried employees, with no special executive perquisites.

Restrictive Covenants.Our NEOs must adhere to restrictive covenants upon separation from Owens Corning, including non-compete, non-solicitation and non-disclosure obligations.

No Excise Tax Gross-Ups.Parachute excise tax reimbursements and gross-ups will not be provided in the event of a change-in-control.

ROLE OF THE COMPENSATION CONSULTANT

RoleThe Committee retained the services of the Compensation Consultant

In the first half of 2015, the Committee retained Pearl Meyer & Partners (“Pearl Meyer”) to serve as its executive compensation consultant. The Committee subsequently hired Meridian Compensation Partners (“Meridian”) to serve inconsultant for 2022. In this role for the remainder of 2015 and going forward. We also refer to either Pearl Meyer (for the first half of 2015) or Meridian (for the second half of 2015) as the “Consultant”.

During 2015,capacity, the Consultant advised the Committee on a variety of subjects consisting of compensation plan design and trends, pay for performance analytics, and benchmarkingcomparative compensation norms. While the Consultant may make recommendations on the form and amount of compensation, the Committee continues to make all decisions regarding the compensation of our NEOs.

The Consultant reportsreported directly to the Committee, participatesparticipated in meetings as requested and communicatescommunicated with the Committee Chair between meetings as necessary. In 2015,2022, the Consultant attended all of our Committee meetings.

MeridianThe Consultant does not (and Pearl Meyer did not) perform other services for or receive other fees from Owens Corning.the Company. The Committee has the sole authority to modify or approve the Consultant’s compensation, determine the nature and scope of its services, evaluate its performance, terminate the engagement, and hire a replacement or additional consultant at any time.

Competitive Positioning

Peer Group Benchmarking35


COMPETITIVE POSITIONING

PEER GROUP

The Committee utilizes a peer group of 1316 companies as one of the inputs inwhen assessing the competitiveness of executive compensation and the appropriateness of compensation program design. These companies are either in the building materials industry, serve related markets, or use manufacturing processes similar to Owens Corning,the Company, and have size (measured in annual sales, market capitalization or number of employees) or complexity comparable to Owens Corning.the Company. This peer group is reviewed regularly by the Committee to help ensure the relevance of the companies to which we compare ourselves.

The peer group for 20152022 compensation decisions was comprised of the following companies, and did not change from the peer group used for 2014 compensation decisions:companies:

 

Armstrong World

A.O. Smith Corporation

Masco Corporation

Ball Corporation

Mohawk Industries, Inc.

Celanese Corporation

O-I Glass, Inc.

Eastman Chemical Company

 PPG Industries, Inc.
Ball Corporation

Fortune Brands Innovations, Inc.

Louisiana-Pacific Corporation

Lennox International Inc.

 Stanley Black & Decker, Inc.
Masco

Louisiana-Pacific Corporation

 USG Corporation
Mohawk Industries, Inc.The Valspar Corporation
Owens-Illinois, Inc.Trane Technologies

Effective January 1, 2022, the Committee added Trane Technologies and Greif, Inc. as peer companies. The Committee believes these changes maintain a balance between company size and revenue, industry, global scope, manufacturing footprint, and presence as a competitor for executive talent.

While compensation data from the peer group serves as comparison data, the Committee supplements this information with data from compensation surveys covering general industry companies of similar size based on annual sales. This additional data, compiled by the Consultant, enhances the Committee’s knowledge of trends and market practices.

The Company did not select the companies that comprise any of these survey groups, and the component companies’ identities were not a material factor in our compensation analysis.

Compensation BenchmarksMARKET MEDIAN COMPENSATION

To help ensure that our compensation program is appropriately competitive, the Committee believes the Target Valuetarget opportunity of each key compensation element (base salary, annual incentive, and annual and long term incentive opportunities)long-term incentive) should generally align with market median practices. As such, the compensation opportunities, when granted, correspond to the market median practices of peer companies with additional performance criteria that awards significant value only when the Company outperforms the targets set by the Committee.

Individual pay opportunities may fall above or below these targets based on the executive’s performance and the Committee’s discretion. In exercising its discretion, the Committee considers Company and individual performance, time in job and experience, job scope, retention risk and any other factors that it determines to be relevant and consistent with program objectives and stockholder interests.

The Committee believes the best way to help ensure that executive pay corresponds to Company performance is to make certain that the actual realizable value of equity granted to an executive corresponds to the actual performance of the Company for the performance period in question. This is achieved by designing the compensation opportunities, when granted, to correspond to the market median practices of peer companies (Target Value) and then having performance goals associated with a significant portion of the median level grant so that the award has significant value only when Company performance is at levels deemed appropriate by the Committee (Realizable Value).HOW WE STRUCTURE OUR COMPENSATION

Annual Incentive Compensation

ANNUAL INCENTIVE

Annual incentives are delivered through the annual Corporate Incentive Plan (“CIP”). Funding under the 20152022 CIP for all NEO awards for the year was determined based on performance as measured against corporate and individual performance goals for the year.goals. Incentive awards for the NEOs are based 75% on corporate performance measures and 25% on individual performance measures.performance. Award amounts for each component may be earned from 0% to 200% of targeted levels, based upon performance. The corporate component is earned based upon the achievement of pre-determined financial goals as described below. Awards are paid in the form of a lump-sum cash payment.

The individual component is funded at maximum if the Company is profitable, with actual award amounts being reduced from maximum based upon a discretionary assessment of individual performance by the Committee. The Committee assesses the individual performance of the CEO, and reviews and approves the CEO’s assessment of individual performance of the other NEOs in determining the individual performance component of CIP amounts.payouts. The overall corporate component is earned based upon the achievement of pre-determined financial goals as described below. Awards are paid in the form of a lump-sum cash payment.

At the beginning of each year, the Committee selects the overall corporate performance objectives, or funding criteria, that are used to determine the funding of the corporate performance component (75% of the target award) for the annual CIP. For 2015,2022, the Committee selected specific levels of Adjusted EBIT. Performance against consolidated Adjustedadjusted EBIT as the performance metric based on the view that total shareholder return correlated with sustained earnings growth, which the Company measures through adjusted EBIT performance, our long-standing measure of profitability. Earnings metrics are the most prevalent annual incentive metrics used by Company peers. Because of the importance of driving profitable growth, adjusted EBIT is weighted at 75% within the annual incentive payout. Owens Corning (consolidated) adjusted EBIT goals determine 40% of overall corporate funding, and performance of the Composites, Insulation, and Roofing businesses against their respective Adjusted EBIT goals each contribute 20% to overall corporate funding.

Funding for each of the corporate components of the CIP can independently range, based on consolidated or business performance, from Threshold performance (zero(50% CIP funding), to Target performance (100% CIP funding), to Maximum performance (two times Target(200% CIP Funding)funding). For consolidated or business performance falling below Threshold, that portion of the award would not fund. For performance between the performance levels,Threshold and Target or Target and Maximum, CIP funding would fall proportionately between the corresponding funding levels. For example, for performance falling two-thirds of the wayhalfway between Threshold performance and Target performance, the resulting CIP funding would fall two-thirds of the waybe 75%, which is halfway between Threshold funding at 50% and Target funding.funding at 100%. This straight-line mathematical interpolation is performed separately for consolidated,Owens Corning, Composites, Insulation, and Roofing Adjustedadjusted EBIT performance and the results are aggregated by applying a 40% weight to consolidated funding and 20% weight to the funding of each business’ funding.business.

When establishing 2022 Threshold, Target, and Maximum CIP performance levels for the corporate components for 2015,requirements, the Committee used a variety of guiding principles, including:

 

Target performance levels generally correspond with the results and the business objectives called for in the Board-reviewed operations plan (a comprehensive strategic business plan for the Company) for the year. Whether the targetTarget performance level can be attained is a function of the degree of difficulty associated with the operations plan.

 

Threshold performance levels will be set at just below the minimuma level of acceptable performance with minimum acceptablethat warrants below-market compensation. CIP performance yieldinglevels between Threshold and Target are intended to compensate participants below market compensation, but also rewardingthe targeted median, which the Committee believes is appropriate for a performance-based incentive plan.

employees incrementally for delivering value during adverse business conditions. CIP performance levels between Threshold and Target are intended to compensate employees below the targeted median, which the Committee believes is appropriate for a performance-based incentive plan.

 

The Maximum performance level is also determined based on the Committee’s view of the degree of difficulty of the operations plan—plan–the more difficult the operating plan and, therefore, the Target performance level, is to achieve, the less incremental performance (above targetTarget performance) is required to reach the Maximum.

 

The Maximum performance level will be set so that it is difficult to achieve and would deliver clear outperformance compared to the operating plan, with the mindset that maximumMaximum performance significantly benefits the Company’s stockholders and warrants CIP funding at or near maximum.Maximum.

 

CIP awards between Target and Maximum should reflect a level of performance that distinguishes the Company and its leaders, and translates into increased stockholder value.

 

The Committee retains discretion to reduce awards or not pay CIP compensation even if the relevant performance targets are met.met, and to adjust performance targets based on timing and materiality of transactions, charges, or accruals.

Based on timing of material transactions, the Committee may exclude the impact of a divestiture/acquisition (for example, not allow the additional EBIT of an acquired business to fund the CIP), or may include the impact of the acquisition (for example, include the acquired business’ EBIT after increasing the performance levels required to fund the CIP), it being the Committee’s intent to avoid funding windfalls and reward acquisition synergy capture.

Individual performance goals are established each year for the CEO are established and reviewed by the Committee.Committee and Board at the beginning of each fiscal year(see goal setting discussion below). For the remaining NEOs, the CEO and each officer establish and agree upon performance objectives which serve as the individual performance goals for that officer for the year. At the close of each year, the Committee subjectively evaluates the performance of the CEO against the established performance goals and ESG goals, in addition to other factors described below, and determines the level of funding of the individual component of the award. Similarly, the CEO reviews performance of the other NEOs against their individual goals and based on this assessment and other factors described below, the CEO makes a recommendation to the Committee. The Committee then determines the actual payout under the individual component of the CIP for such NEOs based on the recommendations of the CEO and its negative discretion, all subject to overall CIP funding levels for the CIP award.

Effective January 1, 2023, the Committee implemented a new TSR comparator for new TSR PSU grants, which consists of the companies noted below. The Committee believes this change more appropriately aligns the companies within the TSR comparator group to our specific industry, markets, and global exposure. The criteria used in determining this new TSR comparator group included the size of the companies (measured in terms of annual revenue and market capitalization); industries and geographies in which the companies operate; stock price correlation and volatility relative to the Company; and, increased representation of TSR comparator companies used by stockholder advisory firms.

PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS – FREE CASH FLOW CONVERSION

Free cash flow conversion is a non-GAAP measure calculated as net cash flow provided by operating activities less cash paid for property, plant, and equipment divided by adjusted earnings. This formula may be adjusted for material transactions, accruals, or charges as approved by the Committee and thus may differ from free cash flow conversion that may be discussed in the context of our financial statements and other public disclosures.

For the 2022 – 2024 performance cycle, the FCFC PSUs will fund from 0% to 200% based upon annual free cash flow conversion during each year of the three-year performance period. Each annual funding outcome will be averaged to determine the award payout. For the 2022-2024 performance cycle, 0% funding will be provided below Threshold performance. Threshold free cash flow conversion performance, which would provide for 50% funding, was set at 75% free cash flow conversion. Maximum performance, which would provide for 200% funding, was set at 110% free cash flow conversion performance. Target performance, which would provide for 100% funding, was set at 100% free cash flow conversion.

Goal SettingHOW WE ASSESS PERFORMANCE

GOAL SETTING

Annually, the Committee establishes financial, strategic, and operational goals for the CEO related to three broad constituencies: stockholders, customers, and employees. The CEO’s goals are generally based upon the Company’s operations plan, which is reviewed by the Board. For 2015, the CEO’s individual goals were qualitative in nature as described below.

Stockholder goals may include specific measurements of profitability, cash flow, capital efficiency, expense management, and expense management. Strategic customeroutcomes related to environmental, social, and transformationalgovernance considerations. Customer goals may include new sources of revenue, geographic expansion, customer channel expansion, and new product development.

How We View Compensation

The 2015 Summary Compensation Table sets forth annual compensation data in accordance with SEC requirements. This uniform format is helpful for cross-company comparisons; however, the Committee believes the SEC-mandated format does not fully reflect all of its annual compensation decisions and, in particular, does not provide adequate basis for a holistic pay for performance assessment. Therefore, when reviewing compensation, the Committee uses several alternative calculation methodologies, as described in this section and summarized in the chart below (however, the following information should not be viewed as a replacement for the 2015 Summary Compensation Table or other compensation tables set forth below):

Summary Compensation TableTotal Direct CompensationAverage Realizable Compensation
PurposeSEC-mandated compensation disclosureReflects the Committee’s compensation decisions based upon 2015 performanceUsed to evaluate pay for performance alignment by comparing actual to target value over a three year period
Pay Elements

Mix of:

- actual pay received during 2015:

•        Base salary paid in 2015

•        Annual incentive received for 2015 performance; and

•        All other compensation (Company 401(k) match); and

- future pay opportunities that may or may not be realized such as:

•        Accounting value of equity awards (restricted shares and performance share units) granted in 2015

•        Base salary paid in 2015

•        Annual incentive received for 2015 performance

•        Grant date value of equity awards (restricted shares, stock options and performance share units) granted in February 2016, reflective of 2015 performance

Average of:

•        Base salary received in 2013, 2014 and 2015

•        Annual incentive received for 2013, 2014 and 2015 performance

•        In-the-money value of equity awards granted in 2013, 2014, and 2015, calculated based upon the stock price as of 12/31/2015, including performance share units paid. Unvested performance share units are valued at targethelp ensure strong governance practices.

Total Direct Compensation

Unlike the amounts reported in the 2015 Summary Compensation Table, total direct compensation includes only pay elements that directly reflect the Committee’s assessment of Company and individual performance for the current year. For example, the 2015 Summary Compensation Table values include the grant date fair value of long-term incentive award opportunities granted in February 2015, reflecting the Committee’s assessment of 2014 performance. Total direct compensation, however, reflects 2015 performance by including the grant date fair value of awards granted in February 2016. Other elements included in the 2015 Summary Compensation Table (for example, changes in pension values) are outside the scope of the Committee’s annual pay decisions.43

Average Realizable Compensation

The Committee does not believe that the 2015 Summary Compensation Table or total direct compensation values adequately measure CEO compensation for the purpose of assessing the alignment of pay with performance. Both methods utilize estimated values for long-term incentive award opportunities at the time of grant. As might be expected, however, estimated values can differ significantly from the actual value earned.

Therefore, the Committee also takes into consideration average realizable compensation, which measures actual salary and annual incentives earned over a three-year period, combined with the in-the-money value of equity awards granted over the same period. The Committee compares this to average target total direct compensation, which is comprised of salary, annual incentive target and the grant date value of long-term incentives. The examination of realizable compensation takes into account short term corporate and individual performance (as generally measured by the Company’s annual incentive plan) and longer-term performance (as generally measured by changes in the Company’s stock price). Realizable compensation captures the impact of Owens Corning’s current share price performance on previously granted long-term incentive awards by using the in-the-money value of these awards, rather than a grant date fair value. The in-the-money value is determined by using the Company’s stock price at the end of each three-year period. This directly compares the executive’s potential benefit with the return our stockholders receive by investing in our stock over the same period. The Committee, therefore, views realizable compensation as very relevant to its assessment of our compensation program’s alignment with stockholders’ long-term interests.

The chart below compares average realizable compensation for our CEO during each of the last three years with the target value of total direct compensation over the same period. Average realizable pay is strongly correlated to Owens Corning’s cumulative total return performance. As the chart indicates, average realizable pay for the CEO increased approximately 35% from 2014 to 2015, driven primarily by the value of Owens Corning stock as well as an above target annual incentive payout in 2015.

The NEOs’ maximum awardsEach NEO’s opportunity for the individual performance component (weighted at 25%) of the CIP areis described below and areis subject to downward discretion by the Committee based upon its assessment of the individual performance of each NEO for 2015.2022. As described below, the factors considered in assessing individual performance were: the performance of business or functional areas for which the individual is accountable, achievement of pre-determinedpredetermined qualitative goals, impact on the organization, and talent development.

Individual performance is based on a discretionary holistic assessment of the NEO’s overall performance.

For the 2020-2022 LTI performance cycle, beginning in 2013 and ending in 2015, funding criteria for the performance share units (PSUs) were based solely on the Company’s stock priceCompany’s: (1) adjusted Return on Capital (ROC) performance versusand (2) Total Shareholder Return relative to constituents of the companiesDow Jones Construction and Materials Index. To increase focus on free cash flow conversion (FCFC), an additional 33.3% of target ROC PSUs were earned in the S&P 500. Overeach year of the performance period Owens Corning’sif the Company delivered both 100% FCFC and delivered above threshold ROC performance.

The Company’s 2020-2022 adjusted Return on Capital performance resulted in a payout of 175% of target, with an additional 100% of target based on its FCFC performance. Specifically, the Company’s adjusted ROC performance for 2020, 2021, and 2022 was 10.6%, 17.9%, and 23.3%, respectively, against a threshold of 7.5% and a target of 10.0% and a maximum of 12.5%. For 2020, 2021 and 2022, the Company also delivered 146.2%, 112.0%, and 107.9% FCFC, respectively. As noted above, ROC and FCFC performance may reflect adjustments for material transactions, accruals, or charges as approved by the Committee, and thus may differ from our return on capital and free cash flow conversion discussed in our financial statements and other public disclosures.

With regard to the 2020-2022 Total Shareholder Return metric, the Company’s stock performed at the 35th64th percentile versus companies in the S&P 500,index, resulting in 40%156% funding.

Stock Ownership Guidelines and Holding RequirementsSTOCK OWNERSHIP GUIDELINES AND HOLDING REQUIREMENTS

Stock ownership guidelines for our officers and directors are designed to closely link their interests with those of our stockholders. These stock ownership guidelines provide that the CEO must own stock with a value of six times his base salary and each other NEO must own stock with a value of three times his or her base salary. All officers must retain 100%As of after-tax shares received through LTI grants until theirthe date of this Proxy Statement, all NEOs hold stock in excess of the applicable ownership guideline is met.guidelines. Outside Directorsdirectors are required to own shares with a value of five times the maximum annual cash retainer. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, all NEOs hold stock in excess of the ownership guidelines applicable to our officers. All Outside Directorsoutside directors with more than three years of tenure on the Board hold stock in excess of the ownership guidelines applicable to our directors. The Company does not have a specific time for executives to meet their stock ownership requirements; however, executives are required to hold all stock until ownership requirements are met. Directors are required to meet the holding requirement within five years of joining the Board and are required to hold all stock until ownership requirements are met. For further details on actual ownership, please refer to the Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial OwnersExecutive Officers and ManagementDirectors table on page 23.provided earlier in this Proxy Statement.

Compensation-Based Risk AssessmentCOMPENSATION-BASED RISK ASSESSMENT

The Committee believes that although the majority of compensation provided to the NEOs is performance-based, our compensation programs for all employees do not encourage behaviors that pose a material risk to the Company. The design of our employee compensation programs encourages balanced focus on both the short-term and the long-term operational and financial goals of the Company. The Company periodically reviewsreviewed the risks associated with its global compensation program and reviewsreviewed the results with the Committee.Committee during 2022. As a result, the CompanyCommittee continues to believe that there are no risks arising from its employee compensation programs that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Timing of Equity AwardsTIMING OF EQUITY AWARDS

The Company does not have any program, plan, or practice to time equity grants in coordination with the release of material, non-public information. Annual awards of restricted stock units and Performance Share Unitsperformance share units are granted on the date of the Committee’s annual February meeting. The Company may also grant equity awards to newly-hired or promoted executives, effective on the start or promotion date.

PerquisitesPERQUISITES

The Compensation Committee reviews its perquisites policy and determines perquisites annually. In 2022, the Company provided, at modest expense, annual health physicals for our executive officers. We provide this benefit to help preserve our investment in our NEOs participateby encouraging them to maintain healthy lifestyles and to be proactive in their preventative healthcare. In addition, in 2022, spouses or guests of NEOs could travel, on a space available basis, on the same health care and other employee benefit programs that are generally availableCompany’s corporate aircraft when already being used for all salaried employees. The Committee has eliminated executive perquisites. The Company contributes to Mr. Genis’ government-sponsored French pension, as it does for other French employees who have relocatedbusiness trips. Such travel had limited or no incremental cost to the United States. Mr. Genis doesCompany. On such occasions, the NEO was subject to imputed income at the applicable Standard Industrial Fare Level rates for any personal passengers on that flight, and the Company did not participate in the Company’s 401(k) plan.provide tax gross-ups for such imputed income.

Deferred Compensation PlanDEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

The Company maintains a nonqualified deferred compensation plan under which certain employees, including the NEOs, are permitted to defer receipt of some or all of their base salary and cash incentive awards under the CIP. Deferred amounts are credited with earnings or losses based on the rate of return of specified mutual funds and/or Owens CorningCompany stock. The deferred compensation plan is not funded, and participants have an unsecured commitment from the Company to pay the amounts due under the plan. When such payments become distributable, the cash will be distributed from general assets.

In 2015, theThe Company providedalso provides a 401(k) Restoration Matchrestoration match to restore benefits that are limited in the qualified 401(k) Savings Plan due to IRS rules. The benefit is calculated as the Company contribution the employee would have received absent IRS pay limits and nonqualified deferrals, less the actual Company contribution to the 401(k) Savings Plan. Eligible participants must be employed at the end of the calendar year to receive this benefit, which is added to unfunded deferred compensation accounts annually and administered to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

In addition, certain employees, including NEOs, may voluntarily defer receipt of some or all of their stock-based awards granted under the LTI program.

We provide the opportunity to defer compensation in an effort to maximize the tax efficiency of our compensation program. We believe that this benefit, along with the 401(k) Restoration Match,restoration match, is an important retention and recruitment tool as many of the companies with which we compete for executive talent provide similar plans to their executive employees.

Post-Termination Compensation

Severance Agreements47


POST-TERMINATION COMPENSATION

We have entered into severance agreements with our officers,Vice Presidents, including the NEOs. These agreements were approved by the Committee. The severance agreements were adopted for the purpose of providing for payments and other benefits if the officer’s employment terminates for a qualifying event or circumstance, such as being terminated without cause as this term is defined in the severance agreements. We believe that these agreements are important to recruiting and retaining our officers, as many of the companies with which we compete for executive talent have similar agreements in place for their executive employees. Based on practices among peer companies and consistent with the interests and needs of the Company, the Committee determined an appropriate level of severance payments and the circumstances that should trigger such payments. Therefore, the severance agreements with the NEOs provide, under certain termination scenarios, up to two years of pay and benefits. The severance agreements provide for payments upon a change in control only if the individual is also terminated for reasons other than cause in connection with the change in control. Payments under the severance agreements are made in cash and are paid depending on the terms of the individual executive’s agreement, either in the form of a one-time lump-sum payment or in the same manner as the regular payroll over a 24-month period. Health care coverage provided under the severance agreements is provided in kind. Additional specific information regarding potential payments under these severance agreements is found under the heading, “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change-in-Control.” The Payments Upon Termination or Change-In-Control Table also includes specific information regarding the treatment of equity grants under various scenarios.

Clawback Policy

If the Board of Directors determines that a NEO has engaged in fraud, willful misconduct, or a violation of Company policy that caused or otherwise contributed to the need for a material restatement of the Company’s financial results, the Committee will review all performance-based compensation awarded to or earned by that NEO during the respective fiscal periods affected by the restatement. This review would include cash incentive awards and all forms of equity-based compensation. If the Committee determines that performance-based compensation would have been materially lower if it had been based on the restated results, the Committee will seek recoupment from the NEO as it deems appropriate based on a consideration of the facts and circumstances, and applicable laws and policies.

Tax Deductibility of PayTAX DEDUCTIBILITY OF PAY

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”), generally places a limit of $1 million on the amount of compensation we may deduct in any one year with respect to any covered employee under Section 162(m).

There is an exceptionThe Committee retains the flexibility to the $1 million limitation for performance-basedaward compensation meeting certain requirements. Awards pursuant to our CIP, as well as grants of Performance Share Units and stock options pursuant to our LTI plan are intended to potentially qualify as performance-based compensation meeting those requirements so that they may be able to be fully tax deductible. Restricted stock that is subject only to time-based vesting isconsistent with our objectives and philosophy even if it does not generally considered performance-based under Section 162(m) of the Tax Code, and, asqualify for a result, if the portion of these awards that becomes taxable to any covered employee, when combined with base salary and other non-performance-based compensation, exceeds $1 million, these awards would not be tax deductible by the Company. Because Section 162(m) restricts the Committee to the exercise of only “negative” discretion with regard to the “individual” component of our CIP, this component of the pool funds at maximum upon threshold levels of company profitability, and the Committee then exercises negative discretion as described above.

deduction. The Committee may decide from timebelieves that the tax deduction limitation should not compromise our ability to time to grantdesign and maintain executive compensation arrangements that will not qualify as performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m). Moreover, even if the Committee intends to grant compensation that qualifies as performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m), the Company cannot guarantee that such compensation ultimately will be deductible.attract and retain executive talent.

Disclosure of Specific Incentive TargetsDISCLOSURE OF SPECIFIC INCENTIVE TARGETS

With respect to both the CIP and LTI, detail on the specific financial performance targets under these criteria for performance periods completed during the reporting period has been disclosed above. However, specificcertain performance targets for ongoing and future performance periods aremay not be disclosed because they are substantially based on the prospective strategic operations plans and corporate objectives of the Company, and disclosure of these prospective specific performance targets is not material to an understanding of our NEO compensation for 2015.2022. Such performance goals do not have a material impact on the compensation actually received in, or attributable to, the 20152022 reported period. As described above, and as evidenced by the targets and outcomes described for the completed performance periods for the incentive compensation plans, the performance targets selected have a degree of difficulty which the Committee considers to be challenging but achievable. The Committee establishes the goals at the beginning of the performance period at levels that reflect our internal, confidential operations plan. These goals are within the ranges of what we have publicly disclosed for completed performance periods, and accordingly require a high level of financial performance in the context of the current business climate and over the performance periods to be achieved.

COMPENSATION GOVERNANCE PRACTICES

We consider it to be good governance to monitor the evolution of compensation best practices. Some of the most important practices incorporated into our program include the following:

Review of Pay versus
Performance

The Committee continually reviews the relationship between compensation and Company performance.

Median Compensation
Targets

All compensation elements for our executives are initially targeted at the median of our competitive marketplace for talent and positioned within a reasonable range based on actual experience and performance.

Performance Metrics

The Committee annually reviews performance goals for our annual and long-term incentive plans to assure the use of challenging, but fair metrics and targets. Additionally, the Committee reviews the cost of our plans at various performance levels to help ensure that stockholders are appropriately benefiting from performance outcomes.

Clawback of Compensation

If the Board determines that an executive officer has engaged in fraud, willful misconduct, a violation of Company policy, or an error was committed, that caused or otherwise contributed to the need for a material restatement of the Company’s financial results, the Committee will review all performance-based compensation, including cash incentive awards, and all forms of equity-based compensation awarded to or earned by executive officers during the respective fiscal periods affected by the restatement. If the Committee determines that performance-based compensation would have been materially lower if it had been based on the restated results, the Committee may seek recoupment from Executive Officers as it deems appropriate based on a consideration of the facts and circumstances and applicable laws and policies. The Company expects in 2023 to review and revise its clawback policy in connection with final rules regarding recovery of erroneously-awarded compensation as promulgated by the SEC and the NYSE in 2022 and 2023, respectively.

Meaningful Stock Ownership
Guidelines

Our stock ownership requirements are rigorous: six times base salary for the CEO, three times base salary for other NEOs, and five times maximum annual cash retainer for Board members.

No Hedging

The Company has adopted a “Policy Prohibiting Hedging or Pledging Owens Corning Securities.” Pursuant to this Policy, non-employee directors, officers, Company insiders and all other employees who hold Company common stock as a result of their participation in the Owens Corning Stock Plan are prohibited from, directly or indirectly, engaging in any transaction in which they profit if the value of Company common stock falls. This includes trading and/or entering into hedging transactions at any time in publicly traded options, puts, calls, straddles, strips or any other securities derived from or relating to Company securities.

No Pledging

Directors and NEOs, as well as all officers of the Company, are prohibited from pledging Company securities as collateral for a loan or holding Company securities in a margin account.

No Repricing Without Stockholder
Approval

Stock option exercise prices are set to equal the grant date market price and may not be reduced or replaced with stock options with a lower exercise price without stockholder approval.

Market-Competitive Retirement
Programs

We eliminated defined benefit pension benefits for U.S. salaried employees hired after January 1, 2010 and froze existing salaried pension benefits to future accruals at the same time. Our NEOs participate in the Company’s 401(k) plan and are eligible for a Company match on amounts in excess of statutory limits.

Restrictive Covenants

Our NEOs must adhere to restrictive covenants upon separation from the Company, including non-compete, non-solicitation and non-disclosure obligations.

No Excise Tax Gross-Ups

Parachute excise tax reimbursements and gross-ups will not be provided in the event of a change-in-control.

Review of Compensation Peer
Group

Our compensation peer group is reviewed regularly by the Committee and adjusted, when necessary, to help ensure that its composition remains a relevant and appropriate comparison for our executive compensation program.

Review of Committee Charter

The Committee reviews its charter annually to consider the incorporation of best-in-class governance practices.

Stockholder Outreach

We regularly solicit feedback from our stockholders on our executive compensation programs and corporate governance, and incorporate such feedback into our compensation structure going forward.

NARRATIVE TO 2022 SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE AND 2022 GRANTS OF PLAN-BASED AWARDS TABLE

Base Salary, Severance and Certain Other Arrangements

During 2015,2022, each of the NEOs participated in the Company’s compensation and benefits programs for salaried employees as described here and reflected in the tables and accompanying footnotes. Each NEO receives an annual base salary as reflected in the 20152022 Summary Compensation Table above. The amount of such base salary as a component of the total compensation is established and reviewed each year by the Compensation Committee and is described above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Severance arrangements with each of the NEOs are as described below in thePotential Payments Upon Termination or Change-In-Control section.

Annual Corporate Incentive Plan (“CIP”)

Owens CorningThe Company maintains the CIP, in which all salaried employees participate, with specific Company performance criteria adopted annually. Each of the NEOs is eligible to receive annual cash incentive awards based on his or her individual performance and corporate performance against annual performance goals set by the Compensation Committee. Under the CIP for the 20152022 annual performance period, the funding measures set by the Compensation Committee were based on consolidated Adjustedadjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBIT for the Composites, Insulation, and Roofing & Asphalt businesses respectively. Cash awards paid to the NEOs under the CIP for the 20152022 performance period are reflected in column (g) of the 20152022 Summary Compensation Table and the footnote above and the range of award opportunities under the 20152022 CIP is reflected in the 20152022 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table above.

Long-Term Incentive Program (“LTIP”)

Owens CorningThe Company maintains a LTIPlong-term incentive plan applicable to certain salaried employees as selected by the Compensation Committee, including each of the NEOs. The plan is designed to align participant compensation with the attainment of certain longer-term business goals established by the Compensation Committee.

In 2019, the Company’s stockholders approved the Owens Corning 2019 Stock Plan, which replaced the Owens Corning 2016 Stock Plan. In this Proxy Statement, we refer to the stock plan in place at the relevant time as the “Stock Plan.” The Stock Plan provides for participation by employees, management and directors and authorizes grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, bonus stock awards, performance share awards and performance share units. The 2019 Stock Plan document was filed with the SEC in connection with the 2019 Proxy Statement.

The long-term incentive plan utilizes Performance Share UnitsPSUs with three-year performance cycles, adopted annually, with payouts under the program dependent upon corporate performance against performance goals set by the Compensation Committee for each cycle. The January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2022 cycle vested on December 31, 2022 and is therefore included in the Options Exercised and Stock Vested table. The remaining outstanding three-year cycles as of December 31, 20152022 include: January 1, 20132021 through December 31, 2015;2023 and January 1, 20142022 through December 31, 2016; and January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2017.2024. Estimated future payouts of awards under the 2015-20172022-2024 cycle are reflected in the 20152022 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table above.

The award shown in the 20152022 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table represents the NEO’s opportunity to earn the amount shown in the “maximum” column of the table if the maximum performance goal established by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of the performance period are attained or exceeded during the performance period. In the event the maximum performance goal is not attained, then the NEOs may earn the amounts shown in the “target” column if the target level of performance is attained, or amounts below the amounts shown in the “threshold” column“target” level if the thresholdlower level of performance is attained. Participants will earn intermediate amounts for performance between the maximum and target levels, or between the target and threshold levels, and will earn no amounts for performance at or below the threshold level.levels.

For the performance period commencing in 2015,2022, the LTIP awardlong-term incentive plan provides an award under the Owens Corning 2013 Stock Plan in threefour separate components: (1) Restricted Stock Awardsrestricted stock unit awards granted under the 2013

CEO PAY RATIO

The SEC has adopted a rule requiring annual disclosure of the ratio of the median employee’s annual total compensation to the annual total compensation of the CEO. The following pay ratio disclosure is the Company’s stockholders approvedreasonable, good faith estimate based upon the Owens Corning 2013 Stock Plan, which replaced the Owens Corning 2010 Stock Plan. In this Notice and Proxy Statement, we referpermitted methodology described below, pursuant to the stock plan in place atSEC’s guidance under Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, and includes the relevant time asprocess used to identify the “Stock Plan.” median employee and the assumptions used to calculate the ratio:

  PROCESS  ASSUMPTIONS  2022 TOTAL COMPENSATION

1)  As of October 1, 2022, we employed 19,879 full and part-time active employees (excluding our CEO) at our parent company and consolidated subsidiaries (“Global Population”).

2)  We excluded 661 non-U.S. employees (or 3.3% of the Global Population) from the Global Population in accordance with SEC rules*.

3)  After these exclusions, our adjusted Global Population was 19,218 employees.

4)  For each employee who was included in our adjusted Global Population, we determined the employee’s total cash compensation (base salary, overtime, guaranteed compensation and bonus compensation) from our payroll system for the 12-month period ended on September 30, 2022.

5)  Based on each employee’s total cash compensation, we then identified the median employee from our adjusted Global Population.

1)  Each non-U.S. employee’s total cash compensation was converted from local currency to U.S. dollars using the closing spot foreign exchange rate on September 30, 2022.

2)  The annual total compensation for our CEO represents the amount reported for our CEO for 2022 in the “Total” column (column (j)) of our 2022 Summary Compensation Table of this Proxy Statement.

3)  The annual total compensation for our median employee represents the amount of such employee’s compensation for 2022 that would have been reported in the 2022 Summary Compensation Table in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K if the employee had been a Named Executive Officer for 2022.

The annual total compensation of our CEO was: $10,979,854.

Median of the annual total compensation of all employees (except the CEO): $60,396.

Based on the above information, for 2022 the ratio of the median of the annual total compensation of all employees to the annual total compensation of the CEO was approximately 1 to 182. This ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.

*

Breakdown of our total Global Population as of October 1, 2022: USA (8,622 employees), non-U.S. (11,257 employees). Countries (number of employees) excluded were as follows: Austria (4), Belarus (5), Chile (40), Denmark (8), Estonia (7), Hong Kong (2), Japan (20), Latvia (9), Norway (9), Russia (489), Singapore (48), Slovakia (1), Switzerland (18), and United Arab Emirates (1)

(4)(3)

Refers to benefits under the Company’s non-qualified Supplemental Plan.

Owens CorningThe Company maintains a tax-qualified noncontributory defined benefit cash balance pension plan (the “Cash Balance Plan”) covering certain salaried and hourly employees in the United States, including certain NEOs. The Cash Balance Plan was adopted by Owens Corning in replacement of the qualified Salaried Employees’ Retirement Plan maintained prior to 1996, which we refer to as the “Prior Plan.” The Prior Plan provided retirement benefits primarily on the basis of age at retirement, years of service and average earnings from the highest three consecutive years of service. Under the Cash Balance Plan, for each year prior to January 1, 2010, eligible employees generally earned a benefit of 4% of such employee’s covered pay. This

was referred to under the Cash Balance Plan as a “Pay Credit.” Covered pay was defined generally as base pay and certain annual incentive compensation amounts payable during the year. Effective January 1, 2010, the Cash Balance Plan was amended to eliminate Pay Credit accruals and was closed to new participation. Accrued benefits continue to earn monthly interest based on the average interest rate for five-year United States treasury securities. Employees with an accrued benefit under the Cash Balance Plan vest in that benefit once they have completed three years of service. Vested employees may receive their benefit under the Cash Balance Plan as a lump sum or as a monthly payment when they leave the Company.

As the Company transitioned from the Prior Plan to the current Cash Balance Plan,Each participating employees who were at least age 40 with 10 years of service as of December 31, 1995 became entitled to receive the greater of their benefit under the Prior Plan frozen as of December 31, 2000, or under the Cash Balance Plan.

Each NEO would have been entitled to payment of their vested accrued benefit under the tax-qualified plan in the event of a termination occurring on December 31, 2015,2022, valued as a lump-sum payable as of that date as follows: Mr. Thaman, $156,495; Mr. McMurray, $11,918;Smith, $5,826, and Mr. Smith, $5,267.Sandri $22,984. Mr. GenisChambers, Mr. Parks, and Mr. ChambersFister do not participate in the plan.Cash Balance Plan.

In addition to the tax-qualified pension plan, Owens Corningthe Company maintains supplemental pension benefits, including the Executive Supplemental Plan that pays eligible employees leaving the Company the difference between the benefits payable under Owens Corning’s the Company’s tax-qualified pension plan and those benefits that would have been payable except for limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. The Executive Supplemental Plan was amended to eliminate future accruals and was closed to new participation effective January 1, 2010. Some NEOs participate in both the tax-qualified pension plan and the Executive Supplemental Plan.

EachMr. Sandri is the only NEO eligible NEOto participate in the Executive Supplemental Plan. Mr. Sandri would have been entitled to payment of theirhis vested accrued benefit under the Executive Supplemental Plan in the event of a termination occurring on December 31, 2015,2022, valued as a lump-sum payable as of that date as follows: Mr. Thaman, $672,823; andSandri, $5,928. Mr. McMurray, $1,525.Chambers, Mr. Genis,Parks, Mr. Smith, and Mr. ChambersFister do not participate in the Executive Supplemental Plan.

NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

The Company has established an unfunded Deferred Compensation Plan under which eligible officers,employees, including several of the NEOs, are permitted to defer some or all of their cash incentive compensation and up to 80%100% of their base salary. OfficersNEOs may defer compensation until their separation from the Company, or may designate a set deferral period between two and ten years. They may elect to take their distribution as a lump sum, five annual installments, ten10 annual installments, or a set dollar amount.

In 2015, Owens Corning2022, the Company provided Company contributions to the accounts of eligible officers,employees, including several of the NEOs, to restore Company contributions and matching contributions that were limited in the 401(k) Plan by the IRS. These contributions are deferred until separation, and officersNEOs may elect to defer payments for an additional two to ten10 years after separation. They may elect to take their distribution as a lump sum, five annual installments, ten10 annual installments, or a set dollar amount.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE-IN-CONTROL

The Company has entered into certain agreements and maintains certain plans under which the Company would provide compensation to NEOs in the event of a termination of employment or a change in controlchange-in-control of the Company. The payment and benefit levels disclosed in the table below are determined under the various triggering events pursuant to these agreements that both define what constitutes the triggering event and provides those payments that would be due upon the occurrence of such events.

Severance agreements have been executed with and are in effect for Messrs. Thaman, McMurray, Genis,Chambers, Parks, Sandri, Smith, and Chambers. The severance agreements in placeFister that provide, under certain termination scenarios as reflected in the table below, for the payment of an amount equal to two times base salary and annual incentive compensation amounts plus continuation of health insurance coverage for a maximum period of one year. Mr. Thaman’s previous eligibility for reimbursement with respect to certain taxes if applicable to the severance payments has been discontinued. The severance agreements provide for payments upon a change in controlchange-in-control only if the individual is also terminated for reasons other than cause in connection with the change in control.change-in-control. Payments under the severance agreements are made in cash and are paid depending upon the terms of the individual NEO’s agreement, either in the form of a one-time lump-sum payment or in the same manner as the regular payroll payments over a 24-month period. Health care coverage provided under the severance agreements is provided in-kind.

The CIP and the LTIPPSU awards each contain provisions that require continued employment during the performance period in order to be eligible to receive a payout under the plans, absent a change-in-control. However, for death disability or retirementdisability which occurs during the performance period, the participantNEO may receive an award for that performance period; and in the case of a qualified retirement which occurs within the performance period the NEO may receive a pro-rated CIP award for that performance period. CIP payments are made in one-time, lump-sum payments of cash.cash following the performance period.

The 2013 Stock Plan provides, under certain circumstances as described above, for acceleration of vesting of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance share units and option awards. Accelerated vesting of outstanding restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance share units and option awards may only occur upon death, disability, or achange-in-control. In the case of a qualified retirement, certain RSU shares will continue to vest as if the NEO were still employed. In addition, prior stock option grants provide for two years to exercise the award, but no later than original expiration, in the event of retirement.

The NEOs are entitled, upon or following their termination, to their accrued benefits under the Executive Supplemental Plan arrangements as described above.and their company contributions to the Deferred Compensation plan, according to their disbursement election. NEOs would also be entitled to the normal vested pension benefits and other vested benefits which are generally available to all salaried employees who terminate employment with the Company under various circumstances.

Upon the occurrence of any triggering event, the payment and benefit levels would be determined under the terms of the agreement. The specific definitions of the triggering events are set forth in detail in the agreements which have been filed as exhibits to prior disclosures. In addition, severance payments are paid contingent upon confidentiality, a mutual release, and an agreement not to compete. Each of the retirement payments of vested accrued benefits or deferred compensation payments that would have occurred upon a termination event described herein are set forth in the narrative to the 20152022 Pension Benefits Table and 2022 Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Table above.

Where eligible for such benefits, the amount includes both health care continuation coverage and/or outplacement services. The value of health care continuation is based on the Company’s net plan cost and the coverage category in which the executive is enrolled; this value assumes that the executive continues to pay the employee portion of the premium. The value of outplacement services assumes the maximum services available under the severance agreement. As a practical matter the actual value of such services is typically substantially less than the maximum.

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

We have designed our Non-Employee Director Compensation program to: (1) align directors’ interests with the long-term interests of our stockholders; (2) attract and retain outstanding director candidates with diverse backgrounds and experiences; and (3) recognize the substantial time commitment required to serve as a Company director. At least every two years, the Compensation Committee reviews the Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation program to determine whether it remains consistent with these objectives as well market median positioning. When making its recommendations, the Compensation Committee considers director compensation levels at the same group of companies used to benchmark the NEOs’ compensation, and takes advice from and reviews data compiled by its independent compensation consultant, Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC. See “Competitive Positioning” on page 36.

During 2015,2022, the Company compensated each non-management director pursuant to a new standard annual retainer arrangement that no longer involvesdoes not involve the payment of meeting fees. This arrangement provides for an annual retainer and annual chair retainer as approvedrecommended by the Compensation Committee. Each non-management director received an annual Board retainer of $200,000. The Chair$260,000, an increase of each Board committee$10,000 from 2021. Each of the Chairs of the Governance and Nominating Committee and the Finance Committee received an additional annual retainer of $15,000. The Chair of the Compensation Committee received an additional annual retainer of $20,000. The Chair of the Audit Committee received an additional annual retainer of $25,000, and the Lead Independent Director received an additional annual retainer in the amount of $25,000.$35,000. All retainers arewere paid in a combination of stock and cash based on the director’s election with(subject to a minimum 60% stock requirement.requirement). Stock compensation for annual retainers may be deferred for issuance to the director uponbeyond the distribution date elected in writingpursuant to a written election executed prior to the start of the year. The annual retainers are otherwise paid on a quarterly basis. Non-management directors receive no perquisites.

Our stock ownership guidelines currently provide that each non-management director must own stock with a value of five times the maximum cash retainer. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, all non-management directors with more than three years of tenure on the Board hold stock in excess of the ownership guidelines.

Owens Corning establishedThe Company maintains a Deferred Compensation Plan effective January 1, 2007, under which non-management directors have been permitted to defer some or all of their cash compensation for annual retainer, annual chair retainer and meeting fees.compensation. Such deferred cash compensation will be credited to an individual account and will accrue gains or losses under notional investment funds available under the plan and as selected by the director (the available fund options include a fund indexed to Company common stock).

PROPOSAL 2

RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC

ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2016,2023, subject to ratification by our stockholders.

Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting and available to answerrespond to questions. They also have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.

We are asking our stockholders to ratify the Audit Committee’s selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2016.2023. Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, the Board has submitted the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to our stockholders for ratification because we value our stockholders’ views on the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate governance practice. In the event that our stockholders fail to ratify the selection, it will be considered a direction to the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different independent public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee recommend a vote FOR the ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2016.

PROPOSAL 3

APPROVAL, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF 2015 NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

The Company is presenting the following proposal, which gives stockholders the opportunity to cast a non-binding advisory vote to approve the 2015 compensation of our named executive officersNEOs by voting for or against the resolution below. This resolution is required pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.Act. Consistent with the preference expressed by our stockholders, the Company will hold this advisory vote on an annual basis (includingsubject to the outcome of the stockholder vote on Proposal 4, with the next advisory vote expected to be held at the 20172024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders) until the next non-binding vote on the frequency with which advisory votes to approve named executive officer compensation should be held.Stockholders.

In considering your vote, we encourage you to review the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section and the compensation tables and narratives in this Proxy Statement. The Company believes its compensation philosophy and programs are strongly linked to performance and results and appropriately aligned with the interests of stockholders.

 

Compensation opportunities are generally competitive with market median practices. Actual compensation levels may exceed target levels to the extent Company and individual performance exceeds expectations.exceed target level performance. In the event performance is below targeted levels, actual pay levels may be below target levels.

 

A significant majority of total compensation is performance-based.

 

Executives are appropriately focused on achieving annual financial and operational goals through the Company’s annual Corporate Incentive Plan and on maximizing stockholder value over the long term, through grants of restricted sharesstock units and performance share units.

Accordingly, the Company is asking stockholders to vote FOR the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the 2015 compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the Proxy Statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narratives and any related disclosure in the Proxy Statement.”

While our Board of Directors and Compensation Committee intend to consider carefully consider the stockholder vote resulting from the proposal, the final vote will not be binding and is advisory in nature.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes that could be cast by the holders of all stock entitled to vote that are present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting is required to approve, on an advisory basis, the 2015 compensation of our named executive officers.

PROPOSAL 4

RECOMMENDATION, ON AN ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE FREQUENCY OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

The Company is presenting the following proposal, which gives you as a stockholder the opportunity to recommend to the Company as to how often you wish the Company to include a Say-on-Pay proposal, similar to Proposal 3, in our Proxy Statement. Section 14A of the Exchange Act requires the Company to include in its Proxy Statement a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation not less frequently than once every three years. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Section 14A also require the Company to include in its Proxy Statement this year a separate non-binding advisory vote regarding whether future Say-on-Pay proposals should be held every “1 YEAR,” “2 YEARS,” or “3 YEARS.” You may vote for future Say-on-Pay votes to be held every “1 YEAR,” “2 YEARS,” or “3 YEARS” or abstain from voting in response to this proposal. We are required to hold a “Say-on-Frequency” or “say-when-on-pay” vote at least once every six years, with the next Say-on-Frequency vote expected to be held at the 2029 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The Board believes that Say-on-Pay votes should be conducted every year so that stockholders may annually express their views on the Company’s executive compensation program. We believe that a one-year frequency provides the highest level of Directors recommends that youaccountability and communication by enabling the non-binding stockholder vote FOR approval, on an advisory basis, ofto approve the 2015 compensation of our namedNEOs to correspond with the most recent executive officers.

compensation information presented in our Proxy Statement for our annual meetings of stockholders. We believe that providing the vote only every two years or three years may prevent stockholders from communicating in a meaningful and coherent manner. For example, the Board and management may not know whether the stockholder vote approves or disapproves of compensation for the reporting period or the compensation for previous reporting periods. As a result, it could be difficult to discern the implications of the stockholder vote. In addition, the Board’s determination was based on its experience over the past five years that an annual Say-on-Pay vote is meaningful, is not burdensome and is consistent with corporate governance best practices.

The option receiving the greatest number of votes (“1 YEAR,” “2 YEARS,” or “3 YEARS”) will be considered the frequency recommended by stockholders. However, because this vote is advisory and not binding on the Board or the Company, the Board may decide that it is in the best interests of our stockholders and the Company to hold an advisory vote on executive compensation more or less frequently than the option recommended by our stockholders.

PROPOSAL 5

APPROVAL OF THE OWENS CORNING 20162023 STOCK PLAN

At the Annual Meeting,We are asking stockholders will be asked to approve the Owens Corning 20162023 Stock Plan as set forth inAnnex A of this proxy statementProxy Statement (the “Proposed Plan”).

The Compensation Committee has adopted,authorized, and the Board of Directors has ratified,approved, subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders, the Proposed Plan. If the Proposed Plan is approved by stockholders, it will replacesucceed the Owens Corning 20132019 Stock Plan, as amended and restated, which was approved by stockholders in April 20132019 (the “2013“2019 Plan”). Upon approval of the Proposed Plan by stockholders, shares of CompanyCompany’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, remaining available under the 20132019 Plan will be rolled into and become available for grant under the Proposed Plan, and no future grants will be made under the 20132019 Plan. As of December 31, 2015,February 21, 2023, approximately 2.0 million1,992,210 shares of Company common stock remained available under the 20132019 Plan. If the Proposed Plan is approved by stockholders, the number of shares of common stock which may be granted under the Proposed Plan is 2,500,000will be 1,370,000 plus the number of available shares rolled into the Proposed Plan from the 20132019 Plan. If the Proposed Plan is not approved by stockholders, the 20132019 Plan will remain in effect and no awards will be granted under the Proposed Plan, and our ability to make certain performance awards to certain recipients may be limited.Plan.

The Proposed Plan provides for participation by officers, other employees management and non-employee directors of the Company and its subsidiaries, and authorizes grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), stock awards (including restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and bonus stock awards,awards), performance share awards and performance share units. The Board of Directors believes that share-based incentives are important factors in attracting and retaining highly qualified executives and directors, and that they help to align the interests of those executives and directors with the interests of our stockholders. The Board believes that our stockholder-approved 20132019 Plan has been an instrumental component of the Company’s total compensation programs.

The Proposed Plan is also intended to enable us to structure certain awards so that they may be able to qualify as “qualified performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 162(m)”). If our equity awards qualify as “qualified performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m), then we would generally be able to receive a federal income tax deduction for certain compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer and the other three most highly compensated executive officers (other than our Chief Financial Officer) in excess of $1 million for any taxable year. While we believe it is in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders to have the ability to potentially grant “qualified performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m), we may decide to grant compensation that will not qualify as “qualified performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m). Moreover, even if we intend to grant compensation that qualifies as “qualified performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m), we cannot guarantee that such compensation will so qualify or ultimately will be deductible by us.

We are seeking stockholder approval of the Proposed Plan, including the performance measures and individual grant limits under the Proposed Plan, as well as the individuals eligible to receive awards under the Proposed Plan, to have the flexibility to potentially grant performance-based awards under the Proposed Plan that may be fully deductible for federal income tax purposes. If our stockholders approve the Proposed Plan and the material terms for qualified performance-based compensation under the Proposed Plan, assuming that all other Section 162(m) requirements are met, we may be able to obtain tax deductions with respect to awards issued under the Proposed Plan to our Section 162(m) executive officers without regard to the limitations of Section 162(m) through the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders (in other words, for five years).

The Board of Directors believes that approval of the Proposed Plan is necessary and desirable and will enable the Company to continue to provide market competitive total compensation opportunities to its key employees.

employees and non-employee directors.

Why We Believe You Should Vote for the Proposed Plan

The purposepurposes of the Proposed Plan isare to alignhelp promote the interestslong-term financial success of the Company through the grant of awards that attract and help retain executives, strengthen the Company’s capability to develop, maintain and non-employee directors withdirect its management team, motivate employees through performance-related incentives in support of longer-range performance goals, provide competitive incentive compensation opportunities, enable participation in the interestslong-term growth and financial success of our stockholders, to provide long-term incentives to executives for outstanding service to usthe Company, as well as attract, retain and our stockholders and to assist in recruiting and retaining highly qualified individuals as executives orcompensate non-employee directors. Some of the key features of the Proposed Plan that reflect our commitment to effective management of equity and incentive compensation are set forth below.

We believe ourManagement believes future success depends in part on ourthe ability to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified employees. The ability to provide equity-based awards under the Proposed Plan is a critical component to achieving this success. WeThe Company would be at a distinct competitive disadvantage if we could notwithout the ability to use equity-based awards to recruit, motivate and retain our officers and other employees.

The use of our common sharesstock as part of our compensation program fosters a pay-for-performance culture that is an important element of ourthe Company’s overall compensation philosophy. We believe that equityEquity compensation motivates employees to appropriately focus on actions that enhance stockholder value because they will share in thatthe value enhancement through improved stock price performance. OurAdditionally, equity compensation also helps effectively retain our officers and other employees and promotes a focus on sustained enhancement of stockholder value because our equity compensation awards can be subject to vesting and/or performance criteria.

As of December 31, 2015,February 21, 2023, only 2,011,0121,992,210 shares remained available for issuance under the 20132019 Plan. If the Proposed Plan is not approved, we may be compelled to significantly increase the cash component of our employee compensation, which may not necessarily align employee compensation interests with the investment interests of our stockholders as well as the alignment provided by equity-based awards. Replacing equity awards with cash would also increase cash compensation expense and divert cash away from more impactful uses, such as investment in our business operations.uses.

In determining the number of shares to request for approval under the Proposed Plan, ourthe management team worked with Meridian Compensation Partners and the Compensation Committee to evaluate a number of factors including our recent share usage and criteria expected to be utilized by institutional proxy advisory firms in evaluating our proposal for the Proposed Plan.

OptionsSubject to the terms of the Proposed Plan, options and SARs will have no more than a 10-year term and generally will have a ten-year term and a one-year minimum vesting period. All options and SARs (except with respect to converted, assumed or substituted awards as described in the Proposed Plan) are granted withgenerally will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, and option or SAR re-pricing without stockholder approval is expressly prohibited.prohibited as described in the Proposed Plan.

The Proposed Plan permits the grant of either incentive stock options or options not qualifying as incentive stock options under the Internal Revenue Code. For purposes of grants of incentive stock options under the Proposed Plan, the maximum number of shares available for such grants shall be no more than 1,500,0001,370,000 shares, subject to certain adjustments as described in the Proposed Plan. Certain exceptions to the requirements in the prior paragraph apply in the case of incentive stock options, as described in the Proposed Plan.

72


treatment of the award upon participants’ termination of employment or service with the Company. The method of exercise of options and SARs will be determined by the Committee, as established under the Proposed Plan or in the applicable award agreements, as described in the Proposed Plan.

The Proposed Plan authorizes grants of SARs either alone or in conjunction with a stock option. SARs entitle recipients to receive payments in cash, shares or a combination, of an amount representing the appreciation in the market value of a specified number of shares from the date of grant until the date of exercise. To the extent an option is exercised, any SAR granted in respect of such option is canceled. To the extent a stock appreciation rightSAR is exercised, its related option is canceled.

Performance Share Awards

The Compensation Committee may grant performance share awards under the Proposed Plan. Performance share awards under the Proposed Plan may be made in the form of performance share units (“PSUs”), which can be settled either in cash or shares of our common stock at the end of a performance period, or performance shares. The amount of performance shares or PSUs received by a participant at, above or below their target grant is in general determined by whether the performance goals set by the Compensation Committee are met, exceeded or missed, respectively.

Performance criteria (including for other performance-based awards) may be selected by the Compensation Committee from among a number of performance measures as set forth in the Proposed Plan. Such performance measures may be applicable to the Company or any subsidiary or business unit. For performance-based awards intended to qualify as “qualified performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m), the available performance measures are: total stockholder return (based on the change in the price of a share of the Company’s common stock and dividends paid); brand recognition or acceptance; cost savings or waste elimination; earnings before interest, taxes and amortization (“EBITA”); earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”); earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”); operating income before interest and taxes (“OBIT”); operating income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“OBITDA”); earnings per share; income; operating income; market share or market segment share; net income; new product innovation; operating profit or net operating profit; operating margins or profit margins; profits or gross profits; product cost reductions; product release schedules; return on stockholder’s equity; return on assets; return on capital employed; return on invested capital; return on operating revenue; revenue or revenue growth; sales or segment sales; share price performance; strategic corporate objectives relating to: increase in revenue with certain customers, customer groups, or customer types; revenues, synergies or savings related to corporate transactions; safety performance; sustainability or environmental performance); economic value added; and cash flows (including, but not limited to: operating cash flow, free cash flow, cash flow return on equity and cash flow return on investment); working capital or changes in working capital over any time period or any combination of the foregoing performance measures.

The Compensation Committee may amend or adjust the performance goals, including to take into account changes in law and accounting and tax rules and to make adjustments that it decides are necessary or appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances. The Compensation Committee also designates the period over which the performance criteria are measured.

Performance share awards may be subject to being partially or fully forfeited if the participant terminates employment prior to the end of the performance period as determined by the Compensation Committee. While holders of performance share holdersawards generally have the rights of stockholders with respect to such awards, holders of performance share and PSU awards may not receive current dividends or dividend equivalents on any unearned shares or units, and recipients of PSUs may not vote the units in stockholder votes. Award agreements for performance shares and PSUs will set forth the applicable terms relating to treatment of the award upon participants’ termination of employment or service with the Company.

Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units

The Compensation Committee may award shares of common stock that are subject to restrictions and conditions as determined by the Compensation Committee. Restricted stock awards may vest on the basis of the satisfaction of performance goals established by the Committee or on the basis of the passage of time and continued employment. RecipientsGenerally, recipients of restricted stock receive contingent dividends on, and may vote, the shares subject to a grant. Shares of restricted stock may not, however, be sold or otherwise transferred prior to the lapse of the restrictions.

The Compensation Committee may also award restricted stock units with conditions and restrictions determined by the Compensation Committee. Restricted stock units convert into shares of our common stock if the recipient is still employed on the date that specified restrictions lapse. Restricted stock units may vest on the basis of the satisfaction of performance conditions established by the Committee or on the basis of the passage of

time and continued employment. Recipients of restricted stock units may not vote the units in stockholder votes, but they may receive payments equal to the amount of dividends that would be paid on an equivalent number of shares of common stock, subject to the same restrictions as the underlying shares. Award agreements for restricted stock or restricted stock units will set forth the applicable terms relating to treatment of the award upon participants’ termination of employment or service with the Company.

Other Stock-Based Awards

The Compensation Committee may grant certain other awards under the Proposed Plan, includingconsisting of bonus stock awards and, for non-employee directors, equity awards in lieu of their director fees.

Change in Control

In the event of a change in control of the Company, stock options and stock appreciation rights that are not exercisable will become immediately exercisable, and the restriction period applicable to any outstanding restricted stock or restricted stock unit award will lapse and the performance period applicable to any outstanding performance share or PSU shall lapse (unless otherwise provided for in the applicable award agreement subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee).

Performance awards, restricted stock awards, and other stock-based awards will be fully vested, with performance goals deemed to have been achieved at the maximum level, at the date of change in control.

In the event of a change in control, the Board may require that stock of the corporationCompany surviving the change in control (or its parent) be substituted for the stock subject to outstanding awards, as equitably adjusted to reflect the change in control, and/or require the cash-out of outstanding awards or the payment for outstanding awards in shares of the corporationCompany surviving the change in control (or its parent)., as described in the Proposed Plan.

extend the term of the Proposed Plan;

reduce the minimum purchase price of a share of common stock subject to an option; or

 

effect any change inconsistent with Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.

The Board may otherwise suspend or terminate the Proposed Plan (which generally has a 10-year term)at any time. No such suspension or termination, however, shall affectimpair the rights of a holder as to the terms or conditions of any award granted prior to termination.

Adjustment

The Compensation Committee will provide for anti-dilution adjustments to the terms of outstanding awards and the share limits provided for in the Proposed Plan in the event of the occurrence of certain corporate transactions or events as described in the Proposed Plan. In addition, for each stock option or SAR with an option price or base price greater than the consideration offered in connection with any such transaction or event, the Compensation Committee may in its discretion elect to cancel such stock option or SAR without any payment to the person holding such stock option or SAR.

Other Terms

Awards under the Proposed Plan will in general be evidenced by award agreements subject to the terms of the Proposed Plan. The Proposed Plan provides generally that no award shall be transferable by a participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution (or pursuant to approved beneficiary designations), and that no award will be transferred for value. TheNothing in the Proposed Plan precludes the Compensation Committee, may permit acceleration ofin its sole discretion, from providing for continued vesting ofor accelerated vesting for any award (subjectunder the Proposed Plan upon certain events, including in connection with or following a participant’s death, disability, retirement, or other termination of service or a change in control. Awards will be subject to limited exceptionswithholding taxes and clawback requirements, as well as whistleblower protections, as further described in the Proposed Plan) including in the event of the Participant’s death, disability, retirement or a change-in-control.Plan.

In addition, awardsAwards may be granted under the Proposed Plan in substitution for or in conversion of, or in connection with an assumption of, stock options, SARs, restricted stock, restricted stock units or other stock or stock-based awards held by awardees of an entity engaging in a corporate acquisition or merger transaction with us or any of our subsidiaries.subsidiaries, subject to the terms of the Proposed Plan. Any conversion, substitution or assumption will be effective as of the close of the merger or acquisition, and, to the extent applicable, will be conducted in a manner that complies with or is exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. The awards so granted may reflect the original terms of the awards being assumed or substituted or converted for and need not comply with other specific terms of the Proposed Plan, and may account for common shares substituted for the securities covered by the original awards and the number of shares subject to the original awards, as well as any exercise or purchase prices applicable to the original awards, adjusted to account for differences in stock prices in connection with the transaction.

In the event that a company acquired by us or any of our subsidiaries or with which we or any subsidiary merges has shares available under a pre-existing plan previously approved by stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or merger, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, to reflect such acquisition or merger) may be used for awards made after such acquisition or merger under the Proposed Plan, subject

74


to the terms of the Proposed Plan. However, awards using such available shares may not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan absent the acquisition or merger, and may only be made to individuals who were not our employees or directors or employees or directors of any of our subsidiaries prior to the acquisition or merger.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a brief summary of the principalcertain federal income tax consequences of awardscertain transactions under the Proposed Plan.Plan based on federal income tax laws in effect. This summary, which is presented for the information of stockholders considering how to vote on this proposal and not for Proposed Plan participants, is not intended to be complete and does not describe federal taxes other than income taxes (such as Medicare and Social Security taxes), state, local or foreign tax consequences.

Incentive Stock Options

An incentive stock option grant will not result in any immediate tax consequences to the Company or to the participant. A participant will not realize taxable income upon the exercise of an incentive stock option, (except

that the alternative minimum tax may apply), provided the participant was an employee of the Company or one of our subsidiaries at all times from the date the option was granted to the date three months (in the case of a disabled employee, one year) before the date the option is exercised, and we will not be entitled to any deduction. If the participant does not dispose of the stock acquired within one year of receiving it (and two years after such option was granted), gain or loss realized on the subsequent disposition of the stock will be treated as long termlong-term capital gain or loss.

If the participant disposes of the stock prior to those times, the participant will realize ordinary income in an amount equal to the lesser of (i)(1) the excess of the fair market value of the stock on the date of exercise over the option price; or (ii)(2) if the disposition is a taxable sale or exchange, the amount of gain realized. Any gain recognized by the participant on the disposition in excess of the amount taxable as ordinary income will be treated as capital gain, long or short term depending on whether the stock has been held for more than one year. Upon such a disposition, the Company will generally be entitled to a deduction in the same amount and at the same time as the participant realizes such ordinary income.

Nonqualified Stock Options

The grant of a nonqualified stock option will not result in any immediate tax consequence to the Company or the participant. Upon exercise of a nonqualified stock option, the participant will realize ordinary income in an amount equal to the market value of the stock at the time of exercise over the option price, and the Company will generally be entitled to a deduction in the same amount.

Stock Appreciation Rights

The grant of a stock appreciation right will not result in any immediate tax consequence to the Company or to the participant. Upon the exercise of a stock appreciation right, any cash received and the market value of any stock received will constitute ordinary income to the participant. The Company will generally be entitled to a deduction in the same amount and at the same time as the participant realizes such income.

Restricted Stock

A participant who receives restricted stock will in most cases be subject to tax at ordinary income rates on the market value of the restricted stock at the time the restrictions lapse. However, participants instead may elect within 30 days after the grant date to recognize the market value of the restricted stock as taxable income as of the grant date.

A participant receiving dividends with respect to restricted stock for which the above-described election has not been made and prior to the time restrictions lapse will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income, rather than dividend income, in an amount equal to the dividends paid.

In the case of a sale of shares after the expiration of the restriction period, the holding period to determine whether the participant has long-term or short-term capital gain or loss begins upon such expiration or, in the case of a participant who makes an election as described above, the grant date, and the tax basis for such shares will be equal to the market value thereof on such date. In most instances, the Company will be entitled to a deduction equal to the amount treated as compensation to the participant.

Restricted Stock Units

No income generally will be recognized upon the award of restricted stock units. A participant who receives a restricted stock unit award generally will be subject to tax at ordinary income rates on the fair market value of unrestricted common stock on the date that such shares are transferred to the participant under the award (reduced by any amount paid by the participant for such restricted stock units), and the capital gains/loss holding period for such shares will also commence on such date.

75


Performance Share Awards and Other Stock-Based Awards

A participant who receives any performance award or other stock-based award will recognize income, and the Company will generally be allowed a deduction, when the award is paid. The amount of cash and the market value of the shares of common stock received will be ordinary income to the participant and the Company will generally be entitled to a tax deduction for the same amount.

Tax Deductibility LimitationConsequences to the Company or its Subsidiaries

To the extent that a participant recognizes ordinary income in the circumstances described above, the Company or the subsidiary for which the participant performs services will be entitled to a corresponding deduction provided that, among other things, the income meets the test of reasonableness, is an ordinary and necessary business expense, is not an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 162(m) limits the allowable tax deduction that may be taken by us for compensation paid to certain officers. The limit is $1,000,000 per executive per year, but compensation payable solely on account280G of the attainment of performance goals is excluded from the limitation. Under the Proposed Plan, stock options, stock appreciation rights and performance share awards are intended to be able to qualify as performance based compensation not subject to the $1,000,000 limitation. Restricted stock and other stock-based awards that are not performance-based would generally be subject to the limitation.Internal Revenue Code.

New Plan Benefits

Equity grants under the Proposed Plan are subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee and the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at various future dates. It is not possible to determine the benefits andidentity of recipients of future awards that will be granted ifunder the Proposed Plan is approved by stockholders. We cannot at this time definitively identifyor specific amounts, including the personsdollar value or number of shares subject to whom grantsfuture awards, and types of awards that may be made, nor can we stategranted in the form or valuefuture under the Proposed Plan because the grant and actual settlement of any such awards.

The Proposed Plan does not mandate set benefits or amounts, and no awards have been madegranted under the Proposed Plan that are contingent on approval of the Proposed Plan.upon stockholder approval.

Registration with the SEC

We intend to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the issuance of shares under the Proposed Plan with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as soon as practicable after the approval of the Proposed Plan by our stockholders.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR approval of the Owens Corning 2016 Stock Plan.

RECOMMENDATION REGARDING PROPOSAL 5:

LOGO

76


PROPOSAL 56

APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY’S CORPORATE INCENTIVE PLAN

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to approve the Owens Corning Corporate Incentive Plan Terms Applicable to Certain Executive Officers (As Amended and Restated as of January 1, 2016) (the “Plan”). If approved by stockholders, the Plan will replace the substantially identical Corporate Incentive Plan that was approved by the representatives of the stockholders in 2011.

The Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, approved and adopted the Plan to govern the grant and payment of annual cash incentive awards to certain of Owen Corning’s executive officers and directed that the Plan be submitted to Owens Corning’s stockholders for approval so that payments under the Plan may potentially qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 162(m)”).

The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the Plan.

The purpose of the Plan is to enhance Owens Corning’s ability to attract and retain highly qualified executives and to provide financial incentives to those executives to promote Owens Corning’s success. The Plan is also designed to help Owens Corning potentially preserve the tax deductibility of annual cash incentive awards paid to certain executive officers under Section 162(m). The principal reason for submitting the Plan to stockholders for approval is to enable Owens Corning to potentially structure certain awards under the Plan so that they may qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m).

Generally, Section 162(m) prevents a company like Owens Corning from receiving a federal income tax deduction for compensation paid to certain executive officers (other than the Chief Financial Officer) in excess of $1 million for any year, unless that compensation is performance-based. One of the requirements of “performance-based” compensation for purposes of Section 162(m) is that the compensation be paid pursuant to a plan the material terms of which have been approved by the company’s stockholders. The Board also believes that the Plan serves Owens Corning’s interests by focusing management’s attention on the achievement of those goals that the Board determines to be strategically and operationally important for Owens Corning.

Stockholders are asked to approve the performance measures and individual grant limit under the Plan, as well as the individuals eligible to receive awards under the Plan, to give Owens Corning the flexibility to grant performance-based awards under the Plan that may be fully deductible for federal income tax purposes. If the Plan is approved, assuming that all other Section 162(m) requirements are met, tax deductions may be obtainable with respect to awards issued under the Plan to Section 162(m) executive officers without regard to the limitations of Section 162(m) through the 2021 Annual Meeting (in other words, for five years). If the Plan is not approved by the stockholders, the Plan will be terminated and we will not grant any incentive awards under the Plan. Further, the Compensation Committee will need to reevaluate the compensation of employees who would have been eligible to participate under the Plan, and this result would adversely affect Owens Corning’s ability to deduct certain compensation paid to its Chief Executive Officer and the next three most highly compensated executive officers other than the Chief Financial Officer.

Approval of the Plan requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote. The summary of the Plan set forth in this Proposal 5 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Plan set forth inAnnex B to this proxy statement.

MATERIAL TERMS OF THE PLAN

Administration.The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee, or by another committee appointed by the Board consisting of not less than two directors who are not Employees (the “Committee”). The Committee shall be comprised exclusively of directors who are not Employees and who are “outside directors”

within the meaning of Section 162(m). The Committee shall, subject to the provisions of the Plan, select employees to participate in the Plan; establish and administer the performance goals and the award opportunities applicable to each participant and certify whether the goals have been attained; construe and interpret the Plan and any agreement or instrument entered into under the Plan; establish, amend, or waive rules and regulations for the Plan’s administration; and make all other determinations which may be necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

Eligibility.All executive officers of Owens Corning whose annual incentive compensation for any taxable year may not be (as anticipated by the Committee) deductible unless qualified as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m) (“162(m) Covered Employees”) shall be eligible to be selected to participate in the Plan. There were approximately five 162(m) Covered Employees in 2015 under the current Corporate Incentive Plan. The Committee shall select the 162(m) Covered Employees who shall participate in this Plan in any year generally no later than 90 days after the commencement of the year. Selection to participate in this Plan in any year does not require the Committee to, or imply that the Committee will, select the same person to participate in the Plan in any subsequent year.

Establishment of Performance Goals and Award Opportunities. The Committee must establish in writing, generally within 90 days of the commencement of the annual service period, the performance goals for the annual service period and the method for computing the amount of compensation which will be payable under the Plan to each Participant for the annual service period, plus any applicable service requirement. Such method shall be stated in terms of an objective formula or standard that precludes discretion to increase the amount of the award that would otherwise be due upon attainment of the goals.

The Committee must base the performance goals on any of the following measures listed in the Plan, either alone or in any combination, (in each case, measured either semi-annually, annually or cumulatively over a period of years, on an absolute basis and/or relative to internal/external benchmarks, for Owens Corning in its entirety or its discrete segments, and subject to reasonable definitions or adjustments as specified by the Committee and permitted under the Plan):

PROPOSAL 6

APPROVAL OFAN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO ELIMINATE ASBESTOS TRUST AND BANKRUPTCY RELATED LANGUAGEREFLECT NEW DELAWARE LAW PROVISIONS REGARDING OFFICER EXCULPATION

TheWe are asking stockholders to approve an amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, contains numerous provisions relatingwhich currently limits the monetary liability of directors in certain circumstances pursuant to and consistent with Section 102(b)(7) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”). Effective August 1, 2022, Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL was amended to authorize exculpation of specified officers of Delaware corporations. Specifically, the amendments permit Delaware corporations to include a provision in their certificates of incorporation to exculpate certain officers, in addition to their directors, for personal liability for breach of the duty of care in certain actions. The Board is proposing to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to include a provision that extends exculpation to certain officers of the Company in specific circumstances, to the Company’s bankruptcy that occurred more than a decade agoextent permitted by Delaware law (the “Exculpation Amendment”).

As amended, Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL only permits exculpation for direct claims brought by stockholders for breach of an officer’s fiduciary duty of care, including class actions, and accordingly would not eliminate officers’ monetary liability for breach of fiduciary duty claims brought by the Company itself or for derivative claims brought by stockholders in the name of the Company. Furthermore, consistent with the protections currently afforded to our directors under Article Tenth of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Exculpation Amendment would not limit the liability of officers for any breach of the duty of loyalty to the Asbestos Personal Injury Trust (the “Asbestos Trust”) that ownedCompany or our stockholders, any acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a substantial portionknowing violation of the law, and any transaction from which the officer derived an improper personal benefit. The rationale for limiting the scope of our officers’ liability, as further described below, is to strike a balance between stockholders’ interest in accountability and their interest in the Company being able to attract and retain quality officers to work on its behalf.

The Exculpation Amendment will not be retroactive to any act or omission occurring prior to its effective date. Further, the exculpation would only apply to certain officers, namely a person who (during the course of conduct alleged to be wrongful) (i) is or was president, chief executive officer, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, chief legal officer, controller, treasurer or chief accounting officer; (ii) is or was identified in the Company’s stock atpublic filings with the SEC as one of the most highly compensated executive officers of the Company; or (iii) has, by written agreement with the Company, consented to be identified as an officer for purposes of accepting service of process.

As part of the Governance and Nominating Committee’s ongoing evaluation of the corporate governance structures and practices of the Company, the Governance and Nominating Committee considered the benefits and detriments of eliminating personal liability of certain of our officers under certain circumstances. Adopting the Exculpation Amendment would enable the officers to exercise their business judgment in furtherance of the interests of the stockholders without the potential for distraction posed by the risk of personal liability. The nature of the role of officers often requires them to make decisions on crucial matters. Frequently, officers must make decisions in response to time-sensitive opportunities and challenges, which can create substantial risk of investigations, claims, actions, suits, or proceedings seeking to impose liability based on hindsight, especially in the current litigious environment and regardless of merit. Recently, stockholder plaintiffs have increasingly pursued claims against officers for breaches of duty of care. By eliminating the time spent defending these lawsuits, our officers can use their time to fulfill their Company and professional responsibilities that add more value for Company stockholders. Limiting our current and prospective officers’ concern about personal risk would also empower officers to best exercise their business judgment in furtherance of stockholder interests and better position the Company to retain our current officers and attract top officer candidates. Enhancing our ability to retain and attract experienced officers is in the best interests of the bankruptcyCompany and we should seek to assure such persons that exculpation under certain circumstances is available. We expect that failing to adopt the Exculpation Amendment could impact our recruitment and retention of exceptional officer candidates who conclude that the potential exposure to liabilities, costs of defense, and other risks of proceedings exceeds the benefits of serving as an officer of the Company.

Prior to the amendment of Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, Delaware law permitted Delaware corporations to exculpate directors from personal liability for monetary damages associated with breaches of the duty of care, but that protection did not extend to a Delaware corporation’s officers. Consequently, stockholder plaintiffs have become inapplicableemployed a tactic of bringing certain claims that would otherwise be exculpated if brought against directors, against individual officers to avoid dismissal of such claims. The amendment to Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL was adopted to address inconsistent treatment between officers and irrelevant. As it has been nearly ten years sincedirectors and address rising litigation and insurance costs for stockholders. Accordingly, the Company’s emergence from bankruptcyExculpation Amendment will align the protections available to our directors with those available to our officers. Further, the Governance and becauseNominating Committee noted that the Exculpation Amendment would not negatively impact stockholder rights. Accordingly, considering the narrow class and type of claims for which officers’ liability would be exculpated, and the benefits the Governance and Nominating Committee believes would accrue to the Company complied withand our stockholders in the planform of reorganizationan enhanced ability to attract and retain talented officers, the Asbestos Trust has sold all ofGovernance and Nominating Committee recommended the Company’s outstanding common stock that it once held,Exculpation Amendment to the Board of Directors believesto provide such officer exculpation to the extent permitted by Delaware law. Based on this recommendation, the Board authorized and approved the Exculpation Amendment and determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and itsour stockholders to amend and restateapprove the Certificate of Incorporation in order to eliminate the no longer applicable Asbestos Trust and bankruptcy related provisions. The removal of these provisions will have no impact on the operations or governance of the Company, and will not impact the rights of the Company’s stockholders. Accordingly, on February 4, 2016, the Board of Directors unanimously adopted, subject to the required stockholder approval, an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate the Asbestos Trust and bankruptcy related language.Exculpation Amendment as described herein.

PROPOSAL 7

APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S EXCLUSIVE FORUM PROVISION IN ITS THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS PRINCIPALLY TO ELIMINATE ASBESTOS TRUST AND BANKRUPTCY RELATED LANGUAGE

TheWe are asking stockholders to approve an amendment to our Bylaws to update the existing exclusive forum provision to specify that the U.S. federal district courts will be the sole and exclusive forum for any action arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Federal Forum Amendment”).

Our Bylaws already provide that, unless the Company consents in writing to an alternative forum, a state court located within the State of Delaware is the sole and exclusive forum for: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors or officers to us or our stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors or officers arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, our Amended and Restated Bylaws contain numerous provisions relatingCertificate of Incorporation, or our Bylaws; or (iv) any other action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors or officers that is governed by or subject to the Company’s bankruptcyinternal affairs doctrine for choice of law purposes.

The Federal Forum Amendment will amend Section 8.8 of our Bylaws to provide that, occurred more than a decade ago andunless we consent in writing to the Asbestos Trustselection of an alternative forum, the U.S. federal district courts shall be, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the sole and exclusive forum for any action asserting a claim arising under the Securities Act of 1933. The purpose of the Federal Forum Amendment is to proactively adopt a measure intended to promote the efficient resolution of any future complaint under the Securities Act of 1933, by allowing for the consolidation of multi-jurisdiction litigation, the avoidance of duplicative litigation and the possibility of inconsistent judgments, and efficiencies in managing the procedural aspects of any such litigation. The Federal Forum Amendment would regulate only the forum in which our stockholders may assert claims arising under the Securities Act of 1933; it would not impair the ability of our stockholders to bring such claims, and it would not affect the remedies available if such claims were ultimately successful. Moreover, the Federal Forum Amendment would not specify any particular U.S. federal district courts as the exclusive forum for claims under the Securities Act of 1933, so a plaintiff could select, on the basis of convenience or for other reasons, the U.S. federal district courts in any state as the forum for any such claim.

In determining to recommend the Federal Forum Amendment to the Board, the Governance and Nominating Committee considered a number of factors, including: (i) the potential for costly, duplicative litigation involving multiple lawsuits in multiple jurisdictions regarding essentially the same claims under the Securities Act of 1933, which could result in increased litigation expenses and greater uncertainty regarding outcomes that ownedmay be inconsistent when two or more similar cases proceed in different courts; (ii) the experience and expertise of the U.S. federal district courts in addressing issues and claims under the Securities Act of 1933 and federal case law regarding the same; (iii) the risk that a substantial portionstate court may not interpret or apply federal law, specifically the Securities Act of 1933, in the same manner as the U.S. federal district courts would be expected to do, or may handle procedural aspects differently than the U.S. federal district courts would be expected to do; (iv) the benefits of adopting the Federal Forum Amendment when the Company is not facing any actual or threatened stockholder lawsuits under the Securities Act of 1933; (v) the strong interest of stockholders who are not party to the litigation – for example, in the case of a class action, those who acquired their shares after the event that gave rise to it – in minimizing the Company’s litigation costs, as such costs are borne by current stockholders; (vi) avoiding the increased cost associated with defending duplicative litigation allows for the highest and best use of the Company’s stock atassets, which includes investments in innovation or acquisitions, that can lead to increased stockholder returns; and (vii) the timeviews of proxy advisors and certain institutional investors with respect to federal forum provisions.

The Governance and Nominating Committee recommended the bankruptcy that have become inapplicableFederal Forum Amendment as a prudent and irrelevant. As it has been nearly ten years sinceproactive means for managing this type of potential litigation and to promote efficient and consistent resolutions in the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy and because the Company complied with the planevent this type of reorganization and the Asbestos Trust has sold all of the Company’s outstanding common stock that it once held,litigation arises. Although some plaintiffs might prefer to litigate these matters in a state court, the Board of Directors believes that itthe benefits to us and our stockholders outweigh these concerns. In addition, the Federal Forum Amendment gives us the flexibility to consent to an alternative forum when we deem appropriate. Based on these factors, among others, the Board determined that the Federal Forum Amendment is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholdersstockholders.

The Board is not proposing the Federal Forum Amendment in anticipation of any specific litigation confronting the Company and is being proposed on a prospective basis to help mitigate potential future harm to the Company and its stockholders.

Although the Board could amend the Amended and Restated Bylaws in order to eliminateinclude the no longer applicable bankruptcy and Asbestos Trust related provisions. The Amended and Restated Bylaws currently provide supermajority voting rights on certain topics, includingFederal Forum Amendment without obtaining stockholder director nominee requirements, the manner in whichapproval, the Board fills vacancies and the vote required for the election of directors. An effect of removing the Asbestos Trust and bankruptcy related provisionsdetermined that it would be to eliminate such supermajority voting requirements in the Amended and Restated Bylaws. The removal of these provisions will have no impact on the operations or governancebest interests of the Company and our stockholders, and consistent with the Board’s commitment to strong corporate governance practices, for our stockholders to have the opportunity to consider and act upon the Federal Forum Amendment. If approved by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the Federal Forum Amendment will not impact the rights of the Company’s stockholders under the Amended and Restated Bylaws (other than to eliminate the supermajority voting requirements).be immediately effective.

In addition to changes to eliminate the Asbestos Trust and bankruptcy related language, the proposed amendments to the Company’s Bylaws also modernize and clarify the existing Bylaws to:

allow for electronic notice to directors of special meetings;

remove a provision providing the identity of the initial Chairman of the Board

update provisions regarding uncertificated shares of capital stock; and

after the removal of the Asbestos Trust and bankruptcy related language, make clear the amendment provisions.

Accordingly, on February 4, 2016, the Board of Directors unanimously adopted, subject to the required stockholder approval, an amendment to the Amended and Restated Bylaws principally to eliminate the Asbestos Trust and bankruptcy related language.

The discussion above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the proposed Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, as amended to give effect to the elimination of the Asbestos Trust and bankruptcy related language as well as certain additional matters,Federal Forum Amendment, which areis attached hereto asAnnex D.C.

PROPOSAL 8

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS TO IMPLEMENT MAJORITY VOTING IN UNCONTESTED DIRECTOR ELECTIONS

The Amended and Restated Bylaws currently provide for a plurality voting standard, under which a director nominee who receives a greater number of “FOR” votes than any opponent is elected, whether or not such “FOR” votes constitute a majority of all votes. After careful consideration and in light of current corporate governance trends, the Board of Directors has determined to recommend to the Company’s stockholders that, for uncontested elections, the Company move from the plurality voting standard to what is known as a majority voting standard. The Board of Directors recognizes that many stockholders believe that a majority voting standard increases a board of directors’ accountability to stockholders and that many public companies recently have adopted a majority voting standard in uncontested elections.

Under the proposal, for a director nominee to be elected to the Board of Directors in an uncontested election, the number of votes cast “FOR” the director nominee’s election must exceed 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to that director nominee’s election. Votes cast will include direction to withhold authority (sometimes known as “withhold votes”) but exclude abstentions. An uncontested election is any meeting of stockholders at which the number of director nominees does not exceed the number of directors to be elected. In a contested election, director nominees would continue to be elected by a plurality vote standard. A contested election is an election where the number of director nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected at the meeting, as determined by the secretary of the Company.

Further, if an incumbent director nominee fails to receive the required number of votes for reelection in an uncontested election, such director will be required to promptly tender a letter of resignation to the Board of Directors. The Governance and Nominating Committee will review such director’s letter of resignation and make a recommendation to the Board of Directors as to whether the Board of Directors should accept or reject the tendered resignation, or whether other action should be taken. The Governance and Nominating Committee in making its recommendation, and the Board of Directors in making its decision, may each consider any factors or other information that it considers appropriate and relevant. After the Board of Directors has made its decision, the Company will publicly disclose (by a press release, a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or other broadly disseminated means of communication) its decision regarding the tendered resignation and the rationale behind the decision within 90 days from the date of the certification of the election results. In the event an incumbent director’s resignation is not accepted by the Board of Directors, such director will continue to serve in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Bylaws. If a director’s resignation is accepted by the Board of Directors, or if a nominee for director is not elected and the nominee is not an incumbent director, then the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may fill any resulting vacancy or may decrease the size of the Board of Directors in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Bylaws.

The discussion above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the proposed amendment to the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company to give effect to the implementation of majority voting in uncontested director elections, which is attached hereto asAnnex E.

Vote Required and Recommendation of the Board of Directors

Approval by stockholders of the amendment to the Bylaws requires the affirmative vote of at least seventy five percent (75%) of the outstanding voting stock of the Company unless Proposal 7 is approved by the requisite vote, in which case, the approval of this Proposal 8Federal Forum Amendment requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding votingvotes which could be cast by the holders of all stock entitled to vote which are present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting.

Pursuant to our Bylaws, majority of votes cast means that the number of shares voted “for” a director’s election exceeds 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to that director’s election. “Votes cast” shall include votes against a director and shall exclude abstentions and broker non-votes with respect to a director’s election. If any nominee is unable to serve, your proxy may vote for another nominee proposed by the Board of Directors. We do not know of any nominee for the Board of Directors who would be unable to serve if elected.

Ratification of the Selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP

Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, we are asking our stockholders to ratify the Audit Committee’s selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes that could be cast by the holders of all stock entitled to vote which are present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting is required to approve the ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2023. Abstentions will count as present and entitled to vote for purposes of this proposal and will have the effect of a vote against this proposal. This proposal is considered a “discretionary” proposal and, as a result, we do not expect broker non-votes on this proposal.

Approval, on an advisory basis, of Named Executive Officer Compensation (Say-on-Pay)

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes which could be cast by the holders of all stock entitled to vote which are present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting is required to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers. Abstentions will count as present and entitled to vote for purposes of this proposal and will have the effect of a vote against this proposal. Broker non-votes are not considered entitled to vote on this proposal and, as a result, broker non-votes will not have any effect on this proposal.

Recommendation, on an advisory basis, of the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation (Say-on-Frequency)

The option receiving the greatest number of affirmative votes (every 1 YEAR, 2 YEARS, or 3 YEARS) will be considered the frequency recommended by stockholders of future advisory votes to approve named executive officer compensation. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not have any effect on this proposal.

WHAT IS “HOUSEHOLDING” AND HOW DOES IT AFFECT ME?

Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate proxy cards.

If you are eligible for householding, but you and other stockholders of record with whom you share an address currently receive multiple copies of the Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement and accompanying documents, or if you hold stock in more than one account, and in either case you wish to receive only a single copy of each of these documents for your household, contact Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. at 1-866-540-7095 or in writing at Broadridge, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.

If you participate in householding and wish to receive a separate copy of this Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement and the accompanying documents, or if you do not wish to participate in householding and prefer to receive separate copies of these documents in the future, please contact Broadridge as indicated above. Broadridge will, upon written or oral request, promptly deliver a separate copy of the Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement and the accompanying documents to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy was delivered.

Beneficial owners can request information about householding from their brokers or other holders of record.

4.Establishment of Performance Goals and Award Opportunities

No later than 90 days after the commencement of each annual service period (or than such earlier or later date as may be the applicable deadline for compensation payable hereunder for such year to qualify as “performance-based” under section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code), the Committee shall establish in writing the method for computing the amount of compensation which will be payable under the Plan to each participant in the Plan for such year if the performance goals established by the Committee for such year are attained in whole or in part and if the participant’s employment by the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates continues without interruption during that year.

The foregoing criteria shall have any reasonable definitions that the Committee may specify, which may include or exclude any or all of the following items as the Committee may specify: extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring items; effects of accounting changes; effects of currency fluctuations; effects of financing activities (e.g., effect on earnings per share of issuance of convertible debt securities); expenses for restructuring or productivity initiatives; other non-operating items; spending for acquisitions; effects of divestitures; and other extraordinary items. Any such performance criterion or combination of such criteria may apply to the participant’s award opportunity in its entirety or to any designated portion or portions of the award opportunity, as the Committee may specify.

The only exceptions to these rules apply in the event of termination of employment by reason of death or Disability, or in the event of a Change in Control of the Company (as such terms are defined in the Owens Corning 2016 Stock Plan (or its successor(s)) (“Stock Plan”)), during such year, in which case the following provisions shall apply. In the event of termination of employment by reason of death or Disability during a Plan year, an award shall be payable under this Plan to the participant or the participant’s estate for such year, which shall be adjusted, pro-rata, for the period of time during the Plan year the participant actually

worked. In the event of a Change in Control during a Plan year and prior to any termination of employment, incentive awards shall be paid under the Plan at the higher of (a) one half of participating salary for such year (as determined by the Committee), or (b) projected performance for the year, determined at the time the Change in Control occurs. An additional exception shall apply to the requirement of continued employment during the year, but not to the requirement that awards shall be paid under this Plan for any year solely on account of the attainment of the performance goals established by the Committee with respect to such year, in the event of termination of employment by reason of Retirement (as defined in the Stock Plan) during a Plan year. Subject to the attainment of the performance goals established by the Committee with respect to such year, in the event of termination of employment by reason of Retirement during a Plan year an award may but need not (as the Committee may determine) be payable under this Plan to the participant, which shall be adjusted, pro-rata, for the period of time during the Plan year the participant actually worked. A participant whose employment terminates prior to the end of a Plan year for any reason not excepted above shall not be entitled to any award under the Plan for that year.

7.Shareholder Approval and Committee Certification Contingencies; Payment of Awards

Payment of any awards under this Plan shall be contingent upon shareholder approval, prior to payment, of the material terms of the performance goals under which the awards are to be paid, in accordance with applicable Treasury regulations under Code section 162(m). Unless and until such shareholder approval is obtained, no award shall be paid pursuant to this Plan. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 6 above relating to death, Disability and Change in Control, payment of any award under this Plan shall also be contingent upon the Compensation Committee’s certifying in writing that the performance goals and any other material terms applicable to such award were in fact satisfied, in accordance with applicable Treasury regulations under Code section 162(m). Unless and until the Committee so certifies, such award shall not be paid. Unless the Committee provides otherwise, (a) earned awards shall be paid promptly following such certification, and (b) such payment shall be made in cash (subject to any payroll tax withholding the Company may determine applies). Any amount payable to a participant hereunder shall be separate from and independent of any annual incentive compensation to which the participant may be contractually entitled for such year pursuant to an employment agreement with the Company.

8.Amendment or Termination

The Committee may amend, modify or terminate this Plan at any time, provided that a termination or modification shall only become effective 30 days after written notice thereof is given to each participant. Each participant shall be eligible to receive the incentive compensation to which the participant would have been otherwise entitled but for such termination or modification, pro-rata for the period of the Plan year prior to the termination or modification.

9.Interpretation and Construction

Any provision of this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) awards under this Plan are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m)(4)(C), and (b) any provision of the Plan that would prevent an award under the Plan from so qualifying shall be administered, interpreted and construed to carry out such intention and any provision that cannot be so administered, interpreted and construed shall to that extent be disregarded. No provision of the Plan, nor the selection of any eligible employee to participate in the Plan, shall constitute an employment agreement or affect the duration of any participant’s employment, which shall remain “employment at will” unless an employment agreement between the Company and the participant provides otherwise. Both the participant and the Company shall remain free to terminate employment at any time to the same extent as if the Plan had not been adopted.

10.Governing Law

The terms of this Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to the conflicts of laws principles of that state.

The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. Subject to any rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the number of directors that constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be such number as shall be fixed by, or in the manner provided in, the Bylaws of the Corporation.

(d)Director vacancies shall be filled in the manner set forth in the Bylaws of the Corporation.

(e)Whenever the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right, voting separately by series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, filling of vacancies and other features of such directorships shall be governed by this Article Eighth unless expressly otherwise provided by the resolution or resolutions providing for the creation of such series.

(f)Elections for directors shall not be by ballot unless demand is made for election by ballot by a stockholder entitled to vote for the election of directors. With respect to the election of directors, each stockholder shall be entitled to cast for any candidate for election as a director only one vote per share and stockholders shall not be entitled to cumulate their votes and cast them in favor of one candidate or distribute them among any two or more candidates.

(g)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and subject to the other provisions of this Article Eighth, the Board of Directors shall determine the rights, powers, duties, rules and procedures that shall affect the directors’ power to manage and direct the business and affairs of the Corporation.

TENTH.

(a)The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, indemnify any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to any action or proceeding (whether civil or criminal or otherwise) by reason of the fact that he or she, his or her testator or intestate, is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or by reason of the fact that such person, at the request of the Corporation, is or was serving as a director, manager, officer, employee or agent of any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise.

Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because the director or officer has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the director or officer has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the director or officer has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the director or officer, be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the director or officer to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under thisArticle IX or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

Section 9.3No Limitation. The indemnification provided in thisArticle IX shall inure to each person referred to herein, whether or not the person is serving in any of the enumerated capacities at the time such expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines or amounts paid in settlement are imposed or incurred, and whether or not the claim asserted against him or her is based on matters which antedate the adoption of thisArticle IX. None of the provisions of thisArticle IX shall be construed as a limitation upon the right of the Corporation to exercise its general power to enter into a contract or understanding of indemnity with a director, officer, employee, agent or any other person in any proper case not provided for herein. Each person who shall act or have acted as a director or officer of the Corporation shall be deemed to be doing so in reliance upon such right of indemnification.

Section 9.4Indemnification Contracts. The Board of Directors is authorized to enter into a contract with any director, manager, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or any person serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, manager officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including employee benefit plans, providing for indemnification rights equivalent to those provided for in thisArticle IX.

Section 9.5Insurance. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any such director, manager, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expenses, liability or loss under the General Corporation Law.

Section 9.6Effect of Amendment. Any amendment, repeal or modification of any provision of this Article IX by the stockholders or the directors of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director or officer of the Corporation existing at the time of such amendment, repeal or modification.

Section 9.7Savings Clause. If thisArticle IX or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director, manager, officer, employee and agent of the Corporation as to costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including an action by or in the right of the Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the sole and exclusive forum for any applicable portion of thisArticle IX that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law.

ANNEX E

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS TO IMPLEMENT MAJORITY VOTING IN UNCONTESTED DIRECTOR ELECTIONS

(Deletions marked with strikethrough and additions marked with double underlining; to the extent that Proposal 7 is approved, references to sections in Article II shall be adjusted as appropriate.)

Section 1.10Proxies and Voting.

(a) A stockholder may, by an instrument in writing or by a transmission permitted by law filed in accordance with the procedures established for the meeting, authorize any other person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy to vote for such stockholder at any and all meetings of stockholders and to waive all notices which such stockholder may be entitled to receive.

(b) Each stockholder shall have one vote for every share of stock entitled to vote which is registered in such stockholder’s name on the record date for the meeting, except as otherwise provided herein or required by the General Corporation Law or by the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

(c) All voting, including on the election of directors, and except where otherwise required by the General Corporation Law or by the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, may be by a voice vote; provided, however, that upon demand therefor by a stockholder entitled to vote or by such stockholder’s proxy, a stock vote shall be taken. Every stock vote shall be taken by ballots, each of which shall state the name of the stockholder or proxy voting and such other information as may be requiredclaim arising under the procedure established for the meeting. Every vote taken by ballots shall be counted by an inspector or inspectors appointed by the chairmanSecurities Act of the meeting.1933.

(d) Except as set forth below, election of directors at all meetings of the stockholders at which directors are to be elected shall be by ballot, and, subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors under specified circumstances, a majority of the votes cast at any meeting for the election of directors at which a quorum is present shall elect directors. For purposes of this Bylaw, a majority of votes cast shall mean that the number of shares voted “for” a director’s election exceeds 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to that director’s election. Votes cast shall include direction to withhold authority in each case and exclude abstentions with respect to that director’s election. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a “contested election” of directors, directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting for the election of directors at which a quorum is present. For purposes of this Bylaw, a “contested election” shall mean any election of directors in which the number of candidates for election as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected, with the determination thereof being made by the Secretary as of the close the applicable notice of nomination period set forth in Section 1.7 of these Bylaws or under applicable law, based on whether one or more notice(s) of nomination were timely filed in accordance with Section 1.7; provided, however, that the determination that an election is a “contested election” shall be determinative only as to the timeliness of a notice of nomination and not otherwise as to its validity. If, prior to the time the Corporation mails its initial proxy statement in connection with such election of directors, one or more notices of nomination are withdrawn such that the number of candidates for election as director no longer exceeds the number of directors to be elected, the election shall not be considered a contested election, but in all other cases, once an election is determined to be a contested election, directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the votes cast.

(e) If a nominee for director who is an incumbent director is not elected and no successor has been elected at such meeting, the director shall promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board of Directors. The Governance and Nominating Committee shall make a recommendation to the Board of Directors as to whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation, or whether other action should be taken. The Board of Directors shall act on the tendered resignation, taking into account the Governance and Nominating Committee’s recommendation, and publicly disclose (by a press release, a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other broadlyC-1


LOGO

disseminated means of communication) its decision regarding the tendered resignation and the rationale behind the decision within 90 days from the date of the certification of the election results. The Governance and Nominating Committee in making its recommendation, and the Board of Directors in making its decision, may each consider any factors or other information that it considers appropriate and relevant. The director who tenders his or her resignation shall not participate in the recommendation of the Governance and Nominating Committee or the decision of the Board of Directors with respect to his or her resignation. If such incumbent director’s resignation is not accepted by the Board of Directors, such director shall continue to serve until the next annual meeting and until his or her successor is duly elected, or his or her earlier resignation or removal. If a director’s resignation is accepted by the Board of Directors pursuant to this Bylaw, or if a nominee for director is not elected and the nominee is not an incumbent director, then the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may fill any resulting vacancy pursuant Section [2.2] of these Bylaws or may decrease the size of the Board of Directors pursuant to Section [2.2] of these Bylaws.

All elections of directors shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast, and(f)eExcept as otherwiserequired by the General Corporationprovided by applicableLlaw, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation orthethese Bylaws of this Corporation, allothermattersother than the election of directors shall be decided by the vote of the holders of stock having a majority of the votes which could be cast by the holders of all stock entitled to vote on suchquestionmatter which are present in person or proxy at the meeting.

Section[2.2] Number, Term of Office and Vacancies. Except as otherwise expressly provided inSection [2.3], the number of directors and their term of office shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships at the time any such resolution is presented to the Board of Directors for adoption). The third annual meeting of stockholders following the Effective Date shall not be held prior to the earlier of (i) the third anniversary of the Effective Date and (ii) the earlier of (x) if the Reserved New OCD Shares (as defined in the Plan, the “Reserved New OCD Shares”) are issued to the Asbestos PI Trust, the date following such issuance on which the Asbestos PI Trust no longer owns, beneficially or of record, at least 1% of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation and (y) if all of the FAIR Act Conditions (as defined in the Plan, the “FAIR Act Conditions”) are satisfied in full, the date on which the last of the FAIR Act Conditions is satisfied in full. Each director shall hold office until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.At each annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, directors will be elected by plurality vote of all votes cast at such meeting to hold office for aone-yearterm expiring at thenextsucceedingannual meeting of stockholders.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Board of Directors shall not take any action to reduce the number of directors if such reduction would (i) shorten the term of any incumbent director or (ii) prevent the Board of Directors from effectuating the terms of (x) the last paragraph ofSection [2.4] or (y)Section [2.14] or[2.16] of these Bylaws. Except as set forth in the last paragraph ofSection [2.4],Section [2.14] orSection [2.16] of these Bylaws, if a vacancy occurs on the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors may fill the vacancy by the affirmative vote of a majority of all the remaining directors, even though the directors then remaining in office constitute fewer than a quorum of the Board of Directors. For purposes of these Bylaws, the Asbestos PI Trust shall be considered to own, beneficially and of record, Reserved New OCD Shares for so long as the Asbestos PI Trust is able to provide, upon request by the Corporation, evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation of the Asbestos PI Trust’s ownership of such Reserved New OCD Shares.
