EXPLANATORY NOTE

Pursuant to Item 5.07(d) of Form 8-K, RPM International Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment (this “Amendment”) to its Current Report on Form 8-K originally filed on October 12, 2011 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future advisory votes on executive compensation.

 

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, the majority of votes cast at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on October 6, 2011 voted, on an advisory basis, to hold future advisory votes on executive compensation every year. After considering the voting results and other factors, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold advisory votes on executive compensation every year. The Company will continue to hold annual advisory votes until such time as the next advisory vote is submitted to stockholders regarding the frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation. The information reported under Item 5.07 of the Original Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference.
