This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the “Schedule TO”) filed by PPG Industries, Inc. (“PPG”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 27, 2012.

The Schedule TO relates to the offer by PPG to exchange all shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Eagle Spinco Inc., the PPG subsidiary holding PPG’s commodity chemicals business (“Splitco common stock”), for shares of common stock, par value $1.66 2/3 per share, of PPG (“PPG common stock”) that are validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer (as defined below). Immediately following consummation of the Exchange Offer, Grizzly Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Georgia Gulf Corporation (“Georgia Gulf”), will merge (the “Merger”) with and into Eagle Spinco Inc. (“Splitco”), whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and Splitco will continue as the surviving company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Georgia Gulf and each share of Splitco common stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Georgia Gulf (“Georgia Gulf common stock”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus, dated December 27, 2012 (the “Prospectus”), the Letter of Transmittal and the Exchange and Transmittal Information Booklet, copies of which are incorporated herein by reference as Exhibits (a)(i), (a)(ii) and (a)(iii), respectively (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “Exchange Offer”). In connection with the Exchange Offer, Splitco has filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), a registration statement on Form S-4 and Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-183727) (the “Registration Statement”) to register the shares of Splitco common stock offered in exchange for shares of PPG common stock tendered in the Exchange Offer and to be distributed in any pro rata dividend to the extent that the Exchange Offer is not fully subscribed. Georgia Gulf has filed under the Securities Act a registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-183724) to register the shares of Georgia Gulf common stock into which shares of Splitco common stock will be converted in the Merger.

This Amendment No. 1 shall be read together with the Schedule TO. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO.

Item 4. Terms of the Transaction.

Item 4(a) of the Schedule TO, which incorporates by reference the information contained in the Exchange Offer, is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following thereto:

For each share of PPG common stock that is validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer and accepted by PPG, tendering PPG shareholders will receive 3.2562 shares of Splitco common stock, which will automatically convert into the right to receive one share of Georgia Gulf common stock, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus. The upper limit of 3.9745 shares of Splitco common stock per share of PPG common stock is not in effect. The value of PPG common stock and Splitco common stock, which were used to determine the exchange ratio, were $143.5988 and $49.0005, respectively, and were determined by PPG by reference to the simple arithmetic average of the daily volume–weighted average prices of PPG common stock and the Georgia Gulf common stock, respectively, on the New York Stock Exchange on January 23, 2013, January 24, 2013, and January 25, 2013.

On January 25, 2013, PPG issued a press release announcing the final exchange ratio of the Exchange Offer, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(xi) hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
