                         -------------------------------

     This Amendment No. 1 is executed as of the date set forth below by RPM,
Inc. (hereinafter called the "Company");

                                   WITNESSETH:
                                   ----------

     WHEREAS, the Company maintains the RPM, Inc. 401(k) Trust and Plan
(hereinafter called the "Trust and Plan") for the benefit of certain eligible
employees of Participating Companies; and

     WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Company to amend the Trust and Plan to
reflect that future matching contributions will be made in cash rather than
Company stock, to permit Participants to direct the investment of a portion of
future employee and matching contributions in Company stock and to permit
Accountholders to transfer amounts out of the Pre-Tax Contribution Stock Fund
and Matching Contribution Stock Fund into other investment funds; and

     WHEREAS, the Company reserved the right to amend the Trust and Plan
pursuant to Section 21.1 thereof; NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to Section 21.1 of
the Trust and Plan, the Company hereby amends the Trust and Plan, effective as
of October 1, 2002, as follows:

     contributions that were made in cash and used to purchase Shares shall

     within the Trust Fund. Prior to October 1, 2002, matching contributions
     made by the Participating Companies on a Participant's behalf and
     contributed to the Trust and Plan pursuant to the

                                       2
<PAGE>

     provisions of the Trust and Plan at such time and all dividends and
     other amounts attributable to such matching contributions that were made in
     Shares or made in cash and used to purchase Share shall continue to be held
     and invested in the Matching Contribution Stock Fund, subject to the
     diversification provisions of Section 7.15 hereof.

          On and after October 1, 2002, an Accountholder may, in accordance with
     Section 7.16 hereof, direct that the matching contributions made on his

     any other investment fund established hereunder. Any such direction shall
     be made in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7. Accountholders
     may not elect to invest in Shares in any investment fund hereunder except
     as permitted in Section 7.16 below. Accountholders may not elect to invest

thereto of a new Section 7.16 to read as follows:

         7.16 PROCEDURES FOR DIRECTION OF INVESTMENT IN COMPANY STOCK FUNDS.

              On and after October 1, 2002, an Accountholder may direct the
     Trustee to invest up to twenty percent (20%) of his pre-tax and matching
     contributions made to the Trust and Plan in the Pre-Tax Contribution Stock
     Fund and Matching Contribution Stock Fund. An Accountholder may only invest
     in Shares through the Pre-Tax Contribution Stock Fund and Matching
     Contribution Stock Fund for pre-tax and matching contributions made on or
