              Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)
              ---------------------------------------------------


1.       Financial Statements
         --------------------

         The condensed financial statements included herein are unaudited. In
         the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments,
         consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair
         presentation of the financial position of PPG Industries, Inc. and
         subsidiaries (the Company or PPG) at June 30, 2001, and the results of
         their operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
         2001 and 2000 and their cash flows for the six month periods then
         ended. These condensed financial statements should be read in
         conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
         incorporated by reference in PPG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
         year ended December 31, 2000.

         The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 are
         not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
         year. In the fourth quarter of 2000 the Company changed its policy for
         classifying freight costs from a deduction in arriving at net sales to
         an expense in cost of sales as required by Emerging Issues Task Force
         00-10, "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs." As a
         result, sales and cost of sales have been restated by an equal amount
         for each prior period presented.

         Change in Method of Accounting

         Effective January 1, 2001, PPG adopted the provisions of Statement of
         Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for
         Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" as amended by SFAS No.
         138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
         Activities." These standards require the Company to recognize all
         derivatives as either assets or liabilities at fair value in its
         balance sheet. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a
         derivative depends on the use of the derivative. To the extent that a
         derivative is effective as a hedge of a future exposure to changes in
         value, the fair value of the derivative is deferred in other
         comprehensive income. Any portion considered to be ineffective is
         reported in earnings immediately.

         Adoption of these new standards on January 1, 2001 resulted in an
         increase in current assets, current liabilities and other comprehensive
         income of $70 million, $26 million and $43 million, respectively, with
         a cumulative after-tax increase in net income of less than $1 million.

3.       Business Realignments
         ---------------------

During the first quarter of 2001, the Company finalized plans to reduce costs,
increase efficiencies and accelerate performance improvement and took a charge
of $101 million for restructuring and other related activities, including
severance and other costs of $67 million and asset dispositions of $34 million.
It is expected that these activities will be substantially completed by March
2002.

During 2000, the Company finalized restructuring plans for certain locations
related to the integration of the automotive and industrial coatings businesses
of Imperial Chemical Industries PLC (the ICI business) and PRC-DeSoto
International, Inc. (PRC-DeSoto). These restructuring plans were originally
developed at the acquisition date (principally July 1999). The plans cover
severance benefits for 618 employees, as well as other costs, and resulted in an
increase to goodwill of $24 million and a charge of $1 million in 2000. As of
June 30, 2001, $20 million has been paid to 615 employees. The balance of the
reserve, $5 million, will cover the remaining employee separations and lease
costs, which run through the termination of a lease.

During 2000, PPG Auto Glass L.L.C. (PPG Auto Glass) accrued severance and other
restructuring related costs of $10 million, resulting in an increase to goodwill
of $6 million and a pre-tax charge of $4 million. In addition, PPG Auto Glass
incurred one-time integration costs of $2 million. The restructuring plans
include severance benefits for 133 employees and other exit costs. As of June
30, 2001, $7 million has been paid, including $2 million to 118 employees. The
remaining reserve of $3 million, which includes severance for 15 employees and
other restructuring costs, is expected to be paid by the end of 2001.

In the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company took charges of $3 million related to
work force reductions in the coatings business for 65 people. As of June 30,
2001 these actions are complete.

During 1999, the Company approved restructuring plans associated with the
integration of the packaging coatings acquisition and cost reduction activities
across all of the businesses that resulted in charges of $47 million. The
components of the plans included severance benefits for 519 employees and
estimated losses of $17 million on the disposition of a redundant European
facility and the disposition of the assets of a U.S. coatings facility.
Additionally in 2000, severance reserves for 121 people totaling $5 million were
reversed due to changes in estimates. As of June 30, 2001, the asset
dispositions are complete and $23 million has been paid under the plans to 382
employees and to cover other exit costs. The remaining balance of $2 million
will be substantially utilized in 2001.

         Most domestic and certain foreign inventories are valued using the
         last-in, first-out method. If the first-in, first-out method had been
         used, inventories would have been $180 million and $183 million higher
         at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively.

5.       Comprehensive Income
         --------------------

8.     Derivative Financial Instruments
       --------------------------------

       PPG is exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions that are
       entered into in the normal course of business. The Company may enter into
       derivative financial instrument transactions in order to manage or reduce
       this market risk. PPG's policies do not permit active trading of, or
       speculation in, derivative financial instruments.

       PPG manages its foreign currency transaction risk to minimize the
       volatility of cash flows caused by currency fluctuations by forecasting
       foreign currency-denominated cash flows of each subsidiary for a 12-month
       period and aggregating these cash inflows and outflows in each currency
       to determine the overall net transaction exposures. Decisions on whether
       to use derivative financial instruments to hedge the net transaction
       exposures are made based on the amount of those exposures, by currency,
       and an assessment of the near-term outlook for each currency. The
       Company's policy permits the use of foreign currency forward and option
       contracts to hedge up to 70% of its anticipated net foreign currency cash
       flows over the next 12-month period. These contracts do not qualify for
       hedge accounting. Therefore, the change in the fair value of these
       instruments is recorded in earnings in the period of change in "Other,
       net" in the condensed statement of income. Such amount was not material
       for the quarter ended June 30, 2001.

       The sales, costs, assets and liabilities of our non-U.S. operations must
       be reported in U.S. dollars in order to prepare consolidated financial
       statements which gives rise to translation risk. The Company monitors its
       exposure to translation risk and enters into derivative foreign currency
       contracts to hedge its exposure, as deemed appropriate. This risk
       management strategy does not qualify for hedge accounting under the
       provisions of SFAS No. 133; therefore, the change in the fair value of
       these instruments is recorded in earnings in the period of change in
       "Other, net" in the

                                     - 10 -


       condensed statement of income. Such amount was not material for the
       quarter ended June 30, 2001.

       PPG designates forward currency contracts as hedges against the Company's
       exposure to variability in exchange rates on intercompany borrowings
       denominated in foreign currencies. To the extent effective, changes in
       the fair value of these instruments are deferred in other comprehensive
       income and subsequently reclassified to "Other, net" in the condensed
       statement of income as foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized
       on the intercompany borrowings. The portion of the change in fair value
       considered to be ineffective is reported in "Other, net" in the condensed
       statement of income. Such amount was not material for the quarter ended
       June 30, 2001.

       The Company manages its interest rate risk in order to balance its
       exposure between fixed and variable rates while attempting to minimize
       its interest costs. Generally, the Company maintains variable interest
       rate debt at a level of 25% to 50% of total borrowings. PPG principally
       manages its interest rate risk by retiring and issuing debt from time to
       time. To a limited extent, PPG manages its interest rate risk through the
       use of interest rate swaps. To the extent effective, changes in the fair
       value of these instruments are deferred in other comprehensive income and
       reclassified to interest expense as the interest expense is accrued on
       the underlying debt. As of January 1, 2001 and June 30, 2001, the fair
       value of interest rate swaps was not material.

       Currently, the Company's principal use of derivative financial
       instruments is to manage its exposure to fluctuating natural gas prices
       through the use of natural gas swap and option contracts. To the extent
       that these instruments are effective in hedging PPG's exposure to price
       changes, changes in the hedge contracts' fair values are deferred in
       other comprehensive income and reclassified to cost of sales as the
       natural gas is purchased. Changes in the time value of option contracts
       are excluded from the Company's assessment of hedge effectiveness and
       reported in earnings immediately. The amount of ineffectiveness, which is
       reported in "Other, net" in the condensed statement of income for the
       quarter ended June 30, 2001, was not material.

       No derivative instrument initially designated as a hedge instrument was
       undesignated or discontinued as a hedging instrument for the quarter
       ended June 30, 2001. Derivative instruments designated as hedging
       instruments mature within the next twelve months. During the three and
       six months ended June 30, 2001, $3 million and $26 million, respectively,
       of accumulated gain on derivatives, net of tax, was realized and
       reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings and
       other comprehensive income decreased by $9 million and $31 million,
       respectively, from a decline in the fair value of derivatives held, net
       of tax.

9.     Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
       --------------------------------------

       PPG is involved in a number of lawsuits and claims, both actual and
       potential, including some that it has asserted against others, in which
       substantial monetary damages are sought. These lawsuits and claims relate
       to product liability, contract, patent, environmental, antitrust and
       other matters arising out of the conduct of PPG's business. The Company
       has been named in a number of antitrust lawsuits alleging that PPG acted
       with competitors to fix prices and allocate markets for certain glass
       products. These antitrust proceedings are in an early stage.

                                     - 11 -


       For over thirty years, the Company has been a defendant in lawsuits
       involving claims alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos.
       Aggregate settlements by PPG to date have been immaterial. Over the past
       few years, the number of asbestos-related claims against the Company, as
       well as numerous other defendants, has increased. At June 30, 2001, the
       Company was one of many defendants in numerous asbestos-related lawsuits
       involving approximately 116,000 claims. In many of the cases, the
       plaintiffs allege that the Company should be liable for injuries from
       products manufactured and distributed by Pittsburgh Corning Corporation
       ("PC"). The Company and Corning Incorporated are each 50% shareholders of
       PC. The Company believes it is not responsible for any injuries caused by
       PC products and intends to defend against such claims. Prior to 2000, PPG
       had never been found liable for any such claims, and in numerous cases
       PPG had been dismissed on motions prior to trial. In January 2000, in a
       trial in a state court in Texas involving six plaintiffs, the jury found
       PPG not liable. However, a week later in a separate trial also in a state
       court in Texas, another jury found PPG, for the first time, partly
       responsible for injuries to five plaintiffs alleged to be caused by PC
       products. The Company intends to appeal that verdict.

       On April 16, 2000, PC filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the Federal
       Bankruptcy Court in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Accordingly, in the first
       quarter of 2000, the Company recorded an after-tax charge of $35 million
       for the write-off of all of its equity investment in PC. As a consequence
       of the bankruptcy filing and the various motions and orders in that
       proceeding, the asbestos litigation against PC and PPG has been stayed,
       and the filing of additional asbestos suits against them has been
       enjoined, until November 30, 2001. During the pendency of the stay,
       interested parties, including PC and PPG, among others, have been engaged
       in discussions to determine whether a settlement of all current and
       potential asbestos claims can be agreed on within the context of the PC
       bankruptcy proceeding. These settlement discussions involve numerous,
       complex issues. Accordingly, it is impossible to predict whether or on
       what terms a voluntary settlement, if any, on the part of PPG might be
       reached.

       Although PPG believes it has adequate insurance for the lawsuits and
       claims against PPG described above, certain of PPG's insurers are
       contesting coverage with respect to some of these claims. PPG's lawsuits
       and claims against others include claims against insurers and other third
       parties with respect to actual and contingent losses related to
       environmental, asbestos and other matters. Except with respect to any PPG
       contribution arising out of a possible voluntary settlement of asbestos
       claims as discussed above, the amount of which cannot be predicted,
       management believes that, in the aggregate, the outcome of all lawsuits
       and claims involving PPG will not have a material effect on PPG's
       consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

       It is PPG's policy to accrue expenses for environmental contingencies
       when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of
       loss can be reasonably estimated. Reserves for environmental
       contingencies are exclusive of claims against third parties and are not
       discounted. As of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, PPG had reserves
       for environmental contingencies totaling $84 million. Pre-tax charges
       against income for environmental remediation costs for the six months
       ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 totaled $7 million and $6 million,
       respectively. Cash outlays related to such environmental remediation for
       each of the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 aggregated $7
       million.

       Management anticipates that the resolution of the Company's environmental
       contingencies will occur over an extended period of time.

                                     - 12 -


       The pre-tax charge for environmental remediation costs
       for 2001 is expected to be in the range of $20 million to $30 million. It
       is possible, however, that technological, regulatory and enforcement
       developments, the results of environmental studies and other factors
       could alter this expectation. In management's opinion, the Company
       operates in an environmentally sound manner and the outcome of the
       Company's environmental contingencies will not have a material effect on
       PPG's financial position or liquidity.

       In addition to the amounts currently reserved, the Company may be subject
       to loss contingencies related to environmental matters estimated to be as
       much as $200 million to $400 million, which range is unchanged from
       December 31, 2000. Such unreserved losses are reasonably possible but are
       not currently considered to be probable of occurrence. Although insurers
       and other third parties may cover a portion of these costs, to the extent
       they are incurred, any potential recovery is not included in this
       unreserved exposure to future loss. The Company's environmental
       contingencies are expected to be resolved over an extended period of
       time.

       Although the unreserved exposure to future loss relates to all sites, a
       significant portion of such exposure involves three operating plant
       sites. Initial remedial actions are occurring at these sites. Studies to
       determine the nature of the contamination are reaching completion and the
       need for additional remedial actions, if any, is presently being
       evaluated. The loss contingencies related to the remaining portion of
       such unreserved exposure include significant unresolved issues such as
       the nature and extent of contamination, if any, at sites and the methods
       that may have to be employed should remediation be required.

       With respect to certain waste sites, the financial condition of any other
       potentially responsible parties also contributes to the uncertainty of
       estimating PPG's final costs. Although contributors of waste to sites
       involving other potentially responsible parties may face governmental
       agency assertions of joint and several liability, in general, final
       allocations of costs are made based on the relative contributions of
       wastes to such sites. PPG is generally not a major contributor to such
       sites.

       The impact of evolving programs, such as natural resource damage claims,
       industrial site reuse initiatives and state voluntary remediation
       programs, also adds to the present uncertainties with regard to the
       ultimate resolution of this unreserved exposure to future loss. The
       Company's assessment of the potential impact of these environmental
       contingencies is subject to considerable uncertainty due to the complex,
       ongoing and evolving process of investigation and remediation, if
       necessary, of such environmental contingencies.

       A major customer of one of the Company's Asian coatings joint ventures is
       experiencing financial difficulties. Should this customer be unable to
       pay the amounts owed to our investee or cease operations, our loss would
       be limited to the carrying value of the Company's investment in the joint
       venture which was approximately $20 million as of June 30, 2001.

                                     - 13 -


Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
         of Operations
         -------------

Performance in Second Quarter of 2001 Compared to Second Quarter of 2000

Performance Overview
Sales decreased 5% for the second quarter of 2001 to $2.16 billion compared to
$2.28 billion for the second quarter of 2000. The combination of a 4% volume
decline across all of our business segments and a 2% decline from the negative
effects of foreign currency translation primarily in our coatings segment
contributed to the sales decline. These negative factors were partially offset
by a 1% increase due to higher selling prices primarily in our glass segment.

The gross profit percentage decreased to 38.0% for the second quarter of 2001
compared to 38.8% for the second quarter of 2000. The decrease in the gross
profit percentage was due to higher energy costs offset, in part, by improved
manufacturing efficiencies.

Net income and earnings per share, diluted, for the second quarter of 2001 were
$155 million and $0.92, respectively, compared to $205 million and $1.17,
respectively, for the same quarter in 2000. The decrease in net income was due
to higher energy costs and lower sales volumes across all of our businesses
offset, in part, by improved manufacturing efficiencies and a lower effective
tax rate.

Performance of Business Segments
Coatings sales decreased 6% to $1.17 billion compared to $1.24 billion for the
second quarter of 2000. The combination of a decrease in sales volume of 3%,
primarily in our North American automotive original, refinish and industrial
coatings businesses, and a 3% decline from the negative effects of foreign
currency translation contributed to the sales decline. Operating income for the
second quarter of 2001 was $175 million compared to $205 million for the same
quarter of 2000. The decrease in operating income is attributable primarily to
lower sales volumes.

Glass sales of $608 million were comparable to $607 million for the second
quarter of 2000. A sales increase of 3% resulting from higher selling prices was
offset by a 3% decline in sales volume. Operating income for the second quarter
of 2001 was $99 million compared to $112 million for the same quarter of 2000.
The decrease in operating income is attributable to lower sales volume and
higher natural gas costs offset, in part, by improved manufacturing
efficiencies.

Chemicals sales decreased 9% to $391 million compared to $431 million for the
second quarter of 2000. The combination of a decrease in sales volume of 8% in
our chlor-alkali products and a 1% decline from the negative effects of foreign
currency translation contributed to the sales decline. Operating income for the
second quarter of 2001 was $26 million compared to $50 million for the same
quarter of 2000. The decrease in operating income is attributable to lower sales
volumes and higher natural gas costs, partially offset by lower selling, general
and administrative costs.

Performance in the First Six Months of 2001 Compared to the First Six Months of
2000

Performance Overview
Sales decreased 4% for the first six months of 2001 to $4.26 billion compared to
$4.43 billion for the first six months of 2000. The combination of a 3% volume
decline across all of our

                                      -14-


business segments and a 2% decline from the negative effects of foreign currency
translation in our coatings segment contributed to the sales decline. These
negative factors were partially offset by a 1% increase due to higher selling
prices primarily in our glass and chemicals segments.

The gross profit percentage decreased to 37.5% for the first six months of 2001
compared to 38.8% for the first six months of 2000. The decrease in the gross
profit percentage was due to higher energy costs in our glass and chemicals
segments.

Net income and earnings per share, diluted, for the first six months of 2001
were $211 million and $1.25, respectively, compared to $344 million and $1.96,
respectively for the first six months of 2000. Net income for the first six
months of 2001 included an after-tax charge of $71 million for restructuring and
other related activities and net income for the first six months of 2000
included an after-tax charge of $35 million for the write-off of an equity
investment. Excluding these charges, net income and earnings per share, diluted,
for the first six months of 2001 were $282 million and $1.67, respectively,
compared to $379 million and $2.16, respectively, for the first six months of
2000. The decrease is attributable to higher energy costs and lower sales
volumes, partially offset by slightly higher selling prices and a lower
effective tax rate.

Performance of Business Segments
Coatings sales decreased 6% to $2.27 billion compared to $2.41 billion for the
first six months of 2000. The combination of a decrease in sales volume of 3%,
primarily in our North American automotive original and industrial businesses,
and a 3% decline from the negative effects of foreign currency translation
produced the sales decline. Operating income was $236 million for the first six
months of 2001 compared to $372 million for the first six months of 2000.
Operating income for the first six months of 2001 included pre-tax restructuring
and other related costs of $83 million, as previously discussed. Excluding these
charges, operating income for the first six months of 2001 was $319 million. The
decrease in operating income is attributable to lower sales volumes offset, in
part, by improved manufacturing efficiencies.

Glass sales increased 2% to $1.19 billion compared to $1.17 billion for the
first six months of 2000. Sales increased 3% due to higher selling prices offset
partially by decreased sales volumes of 1% primarily in our automotive original
and fiberglass businesses. Operating income was $184 million for the first six
months of 2001 compared to $210 million for the first six months of 2000.
Operating income for the first six months of 2001 included pre-tax restructuring
and other related costs of $10 million, as previously discussed. Excluding these
charges, operating income for the first six months of 2001 was $194 million. The
decrease in operating income is attributable to lower sales volumes primarily in
our automotive original and fiber glass businesses and the effects of higher
natural gas costs, partially offset by improved manufacturing efficiencies and
higher selling prices.

Chemicals sales decreased 5% to $802 million compared to $841 million for the
first six months of 2000. The combination of a decrease in sales volume of 6%,
primarily from our chlor-alkali products and a 1% decline from the negative
effects of foreign currency translation contributed to the sales decline. These
sales decreases were offset slightly by a 2% increase in sales from higher
selling prices for our chlorine and other chlor-alkali products. Operating
income was $49 million for the first six months of 2001 compared to $124 million
for the first six months of 2000. Operating income for the first six months of
2001 included pre-tax restructuring and other related costs of $7 million, as
previously discussed. Excluding these charges, operating income for the first
six months of 2001 was $56 million. The decrease in operating income is
attributable to lower sales volumes, higher natural gas costs and decreased
manufacturing efficiencies offset, in part, by higher selling prices.

                                      -15-


Other Factors
The change in other unallocated corporate income (expense) - net for second
quarter of 2001 as compared to the same quarter of 2000 is principally due to
the absence of a second quarter 2000 gain from the sales of corporate assets.
Additionally, other unallocated corporate income (expense) - net for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 includes a pre-tax charge of $39 million representing
the write-off of an equity investment, a gain from the sale of corporate assets
and lower employee benefit costs.

The Company's pre-tax earnings for the first six months of 2001 and 2000
included net periodic pension income of $30 million and $42 million,
respectively, related to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans. Net periodic
pension income for 2002 will be less than that recorded in 2001 unless there is
a significant recovery in the U.S. equity markets between now and the end of the
year.

The tax rate on on-going operations for 2001 is 36.0% and reflects an
improvement in the regional mix of non-U.S. taxable earnings and a lower
effective state tax rate when compared with the prior year. Restructuring
charges in 2001, which reflected a tax benefit at a rate of 30.0%, raised the
overall effective tax rate for the first six months of 2001 to 37.9%. The
overall effective tax rate of 40.2% for the first six month of 2000 reflects a
38.5% tax rate on on-going operations and the adverse effects of the write-off
of an equity investment, which was not deductible for tax purposes.

During the second quarter of 2001 the Company renegotiated $1.2 billion in
credit lines which support the commercial paper programs in the United States,
Europe and Canada. The new facility is comprised of a $600 million portion
having a 5-year term and a $600 million portion having a 364-day term. The
facility fee paid on the committed amount is 7 1/2 basis points on the 5-year
portion and six basis points on the 364-day portion. At June 30, 2001, there
were no outstanding borrowings on these lines of credit.

The decrease in short-term and long-term debt is due principally to the
repayment of various non-U.S. debt obligations, primarily related to our
European operations.

Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 2001, PPG adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities" as amended by SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities." These standards require
the Company to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities at fair
value in its balance sheet. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a
derivative depends on the use of the derivative. To the extent that a derivative
is effective as a hedge of a future exposure to changes in value, the fair value
of the derivative is deferred in other comprehensive income. Any portion
considered to be ineffective is reported in earnings immediately.

Adoption of these new standards on January 1, 2001 resulted in an increase in
current assets, current liabilities and other comprehensive income of $70
million, $26 million and $43 million, respectively, with a cumulative after-tax
increase in net income of less than $1 million.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved SFAS No. 141,
"Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used
for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. The Company does
not believe that the prospective adoption of this standard will have a material
impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial

                                      -16-


position or cash flows for 2001. SFAS No. 142 changes the accounting for
goodwill and certain other intangible assets from an amortization method to an
impairment only approach. We will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 142 on
January 1, 2002 and are currently in the process of evaluating the effect the
adoption of SFAS No. 142 will have on PPG's consolidated results of operations,
financial position and cash flows. Amortization of goodwill recorded in 2001
will be approximately $30 million.

Conversion to the Euro
On January 1, 1999, eleven of the member countries of the European Monetary
Union converted from their sovereign currencies to a common currency, the euro.
At that time, fixed conversion rates between the legacy currencies and the euro
were set. Greece has joined the original 11 countries and will adopt the euro in
2002. The legacy currencies will remain legal tender through July 1, 2002.
Beginning January 1, 2002, euro-denominated currency will be issued. No later
than July 1, 2002, the participating countries will withdraw all bills and coins
so that their legacy currencies will no longer be considered legal tender.

PPG has identified and substantially addressed the significant issues that may
have resulted from the euro conversion. These issues include increased
competitive pressures from greater price transparency, changes to information
systems to accommodate various aspects of the new currency and exposure to
market risk with respect to financial instruments. The impact on PPG's operating
results and financial condition from the conversion to the euro has not been,
and is not expected to be, material.

Forward-Looking Statements
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for
forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. Management's
Discussion and Analysis and other sections of this Form 10-Q contain
forward-looking statements that reflect the Company's current views with respect
to future events and financial performance.

Forward-looking statements are identified by the use of the words "aim,"
"believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate" and other expressions
that indicate future events and trends. Any forward-looking statement speaks
only as of the date on which such statement is made and the Company undertakes
no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of
new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to
consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our reports to
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Also, note the following cautionary
statements.

Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's
forward-looking statements. Among these factors are increasing price and product
competition by foreign and domestic competitors, fluctuations in the cost and
availability of raw materials, the ability to maintain favorable supplier
relationships and arrangements, economic and political conditions in
international markets, the ability to penetrate existing, developing and
emerging foreign and domestic markets, which also depends on economic and
political conditions, foreign exchange rates and fluctuations in those rates.
Further, it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors.
Consequently, while the list of factors presented here is considered
representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of
all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant
additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements.

The consequences of material differences in the results as compared to those
anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things,
business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to
third parties and similar risks, any of which

                                      -17-


could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
condition, operations or liquidity.

Commitments and Contingent Liabilities, including Environmental Matters
PPG is involved in a number of lawsuits and claims, both actual and potential,
including some that it has asserted against others, in which substantial
monetary damages are sought. These lawsuits and claims relate to product
liability, contract, patent, environmental, antitrust and other matters arising
out of the conduct of PPG's business. See Note 9, "Commitments and Contingent
Liabilities," to the condensed financial statements in this Form 10-Q for an
expanded description of certain of these lawsuits. PPG's lawsuits and claims
against others include claims against insurers and other third parties with
respect to actual and contingent losses related to environmental and other
matters. As discussed in Note 9, except with respect to any PPG contribution
arising out of a possible voluntary settlement of asbestos claims, the amount of
which cannot be predicted, management believes that, in the aggregate, the
outcome of all lawsuits and claims involving PPG will not have a material effect
on PPG's consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

It is PPG's policy to accrue expenses for environmental contingencies when it is
probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be
reasonably estimated. Reserves for environmental contingencies are exclusive of
claims against third parties and are not discounted. As of June 30, 2001 and
December 31, 2000, PPG had reserves for environmental contingencies totaling $84
million. Pre-tax charges against income for environmental remediation costs for
the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 totaled $7 million and $6 million,
respectively. Cash outlays related to such environmental remediation for each of
the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 aggregated $7 million.

Management anticipates that the resolution of the Company's environmental
contingencies will occur over an extended period of time. The pre-tax charge
for environmental remediation costs for 2001 is expected to be in the range of
$20 million to $30 million. It is possible, however, that technological,
regulatory and enforcement developments, the results of environmental studies
and other factors could alter this expectation. In management's opinion, the
Company operates in an environmentally sound manner and the outcome of the
Company's environmental contingencies will not have a material effect on PPG's
financial position or liquidity.

In addition to the amounts currently reserved, the Company may be subject to
loss contingencies related to environmental matters estimated to be as much as
$200 million to $400 million, which range is unchanged from December 31, 2000.
Such unreserved losses are reasonably possible but are not currently considered
to be probable of occurrence. Although insurers and other third parties may
cover a portion of these costs, to the extent they are incurred, any potential
recovery is not included in this unreserved exposure to future loss. The
Company's environmental contingencies are expected to be resolved over an
extended period of time.

Although the unreserved exposure to future loss relates to all sites, a
significant portion of such exposure involves three operating plant sites.
Initial remedial actions are occurring at these sites. Studies to determine the
nature of the contamination are reaching completion and the need for additional
remedial actions, if any, is presently being evaluated. The loss contingencies
related to the remaining portion of such unreserved exposure include significant
unresolved issues such as the nature and extent of contamination, if any, at
sites and the methods that may have to be employed should remediation be
required.

                                      -18-


With respect to certain waste sites, the financial condition of any other
potentially responsible parties also contributes to the uncertainty of
estimating PPG's final costs. Although contributors of waste to sites involving
other potentially responsible parties may face governmental agency assertions of
joint and several liability, in general, final allocations of costs are made
based on the relative contributions of wastes to such sites. PPG is generally
not a major contributor to such sites.

The impact of evolving programs, such as natural resource damage claims,
industrial site reuse initiatives and state voluntary remediation programs, also
adds to the present uncertainties with regard to the ultimate resolution of this
unreserved exposure to future loss. The Company's assessment of the potential
impact of these environmental contingencies is subject to considerable
uncertainty due to the complex, ongoing and evolving process of investigation
and remediation, if necessary, of such environmental contingencies.

A major customer of one of the Company's Asian coatings joint ventures is
experiencing financial difficulties. Should this customer be unable to pay the
amounts owed to our investee or cease operations, our loss would be limited to
the carrying value of the Company's investment in the joint venture which was
approximately $20 million as of June 30, 2001.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

With the exception of natural gas swap and option contracts, there were no
material changes in the Company's exposure to market risk from December 31,
2000. See Note 8, "Derivative Financial Instruments," to the condensed financial
statements in the Form 10-Q for an expanded description of these market risks.

                                      -19-


                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings
- --------------------------

In the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, it was reported
that the Company has been a defendant in lawsuits involving claims alleging
personal injury from exposure to asbestos. In many of the cases, the plaintiffs
allege that the Company should be liable for injuries involving
asbestos-containing thermal insulation products manufactured and distributed by
Pittsburgh Corning Corporation (PC). The Company and Corning Incorporated are
each 50% shareholders of PC. On April 16, 2000, PC filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy in the Federal Bankruptcy Court in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Accordingly in the first quarter of 2000, the Company recorded an after-tax
charge of $35 million for the write-off of all of its equity investment in PC.
As a consequence of the bankruptcy filing and the various motions and orders in
that proceeding, the asbestos litigation against PC and PPG has been stayed, and
the filing of additional asbestos suits against them has been enjoined, until
November 30, 2001. During the pendency of the stay, interested parties,
including PC and PPG, among others, have been engaged in discussions to
determine whether a settlement of all current and potential asbestos claims can
be agreed on within the context of the PC bankruptcy proceeding. These
settlement discussions involve numerous, complex issues. Accordingly, it is
impossible to predict whether or on what terms a voluntary settlement, if any,
on the part of PPG might be reached.

Item 2.  Change in Securities and Use of Proceeds
- -------------------------------------------------

Directors who are not also Officers of the Company receive Common Stock
Equivalents pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors and the
Directors' Common Stock Plan. Common Stock Equivalents are hypothetical shares
of Common Stock having a value on any given date equal to the value of a share
of Common Stock. Common Stock Equivalents earn dividend equivalents that are
converted into additional Common Stock Equivalents but carry no voting rights or
other rights of a holder of Common Stock. The Common Stock Equivalents credited
to Directors under both plans are exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act of 1933 as private offerings made only to Directors of the
Company in accordance with the provisions of the plans.

Under the Company's Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors, each Director must
defer receipt of such compensation as the Board mandates. Currently, the Board
mandates deferral of one-third of each payment of the basic annual retainer of
each Director. Each Director may also elect to defer the receipt of (1) an
additional one-third of each payment of the basic annual retainer, (2) all of
the basic annual retainer, or (3) all compensation. All deferred payments are
held in the form of Common Stock Equivalents. Payments out of the deferred
accounts are made in the form of Common Stock of the Company (and cash as to any
fractional Common Stock Equivalent). In the second quarter of 2001, the
Directors, as a group, were credited with 5,869 Common Stock Equivalents under
this Plan. The values of the Common Stock Equivalents, when credited, ranged
from $53.15 to $54.09.

Under the Directors' Common Stock Plan, each Director who neither is nor was an
employee of the Company is credited annually with Common Stock Equivalents worth
one-half of the Director's basic annual retainer. Upon termination of service,
the Common Stock Equivalents held in a Director's account are converted to and
paid in Common Stock of the Company (and cash as to any fractional Common Stock
Equivalent). In the second quarter of 2001, the Directors, as a group, received
2,917 Common Stock Equivalents under this Plan. The value of each Common Stock
Equivalent, when credited, ranged from $51.05 to $54.09.
