Item 8.01. Other Events
On June 20, 2008, Owens Corning (the "Company") announced that, as a result of actions taken by the New York Stock Exchange, its Series B Warrants are now listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol OCWSB. The Company issued the Series B Warrants, along with its Series A Warrants, in October 2006 in connection with the Company's emergence from bankruptcy. The Series B Warrants are exercisable for approximately 7.8 million shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $45.25 per share.
The Series A Warrants are exercisable for approximately 17.5 million shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $43.00 per share. Because the number of holders of Series A Warrants is below the number required by the applicable New York Stock Exchange listing standards, the Series A Warrants are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The Series A and Series B Warrants are exercisable at any time and expire on October 31, 2013.
