YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT
PLEASE VOTE YOUR PROXY TODAY
Dear PPG Shareholder:
Time is running short to exercise your right to vote as a shareholder of PPG Industries, Inc. According to our latest records, we have not yet received your voting instructions for PPG’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders, scheduled for April 18, 2019. Your vote is extremely important no matter how many shares you hold.
The PPG Board of Directors recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the proposal to provide for the annual election of directors and “FOR” the proposal to replace supermajority voting requirements. After careful review and taking into consideration shareholder opinion, the Board of Directors has determined that both of these proposals will enhance our corporate governance practices and the accountability of the Board. Please vote via the internet or phone as soon as possible or, alternatively, please sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form.
If you have any questions or need assistance with voting, please contact our proxy solicitor, D.F. King & Company, toll-free at (866) 340‑7108. You can access PPG’s proxy statement, dated March 7, 2019, which includes the Board’s reasoning for the recommendations outlined above, at the Latest Financial Reports section under the Investors tab of PPG’s website, located at www.ppg.com.
On behalf of the entire PPG Board of Directors, thank you for your continued investment and belief in PPG.
Sincerely,
Michael H. McGarry
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
