On May 22, 2009, certain executive officers of Georgia Gulf Corporation (the "Company") voluntarily elected to forfeit certain options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock (the "Shares") with an exercise price of $53.38 granted on February 28, 2005. The purpose of these forfeitures is to return the Shares to the Company so that the Company may make further grants to other employees.

These executive officers did not receive any consideration for the forfeited options. The form of forfeiture notice (attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto) contains the acknowledgement of the forfeiting officer that no commitments to grant any replacement equity awards were made by the Company.
