Owens Corning Series B Warrants Now Listed on the New York Stock Exchange

    TOLEDO, Ohio, June 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Owens Corning (NYSE:
OC) announced today that, as a result of actions taken by the New York
Stock Exchange, the company's Series B Warrants are now listed on the NYSE
under the symbol OCWSB.

    Owens Corning issued the Series B Warrants, along with its Series A
Warrants, in October 2006 in connection with the company's emergence from
asbestos-related Chapter 11. 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 NYSE listing standards, the Series A
Warrants are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

    The Series A and B Warrants are exercisable at any time and will expire
on Oct. 31, 2013.
