This Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed on December 19, 2006 as amended by Amendments No. 1 dated June 20, 2007, No. 2 dated March 2, 2010, No. 3 dated May 6, 2011 and No. 4 dated May 22, 2013 (as amended, the “Amended Schedule 13D”), and is being filed on behalf of the Owens Corning/Fibreboard Asbestos Personal Injury Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”), formed pursuant to the Owens Corning/Fibreboard Asbestos Personal Injury Trust Agreement dated October 31, 2006 (as amended, the “Trust Agreement”) (the “Reporting Person”), relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), of Owens Corning, a Delaware corporation (“Owens Corning”). The purpose of this Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D is to report the sale by the Trust of 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock in a block trade at a net price to the Trust of $43.08 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $107.7 million on April 2, 2014 with settlement on April 7, 2014.

Unless otherwise defined or modified below, capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Amended Schedule 13D.

All disclosure for items contained in the Amended Schedule 13D where no new information is provided for

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Amended Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(a) The Trust is the beneficial owner of 4,600,000 shares of Common Stock. The PI Trust Advisory Committee, a committee established under the Trust Agreement (the “TAC”), and Michael J. Crames, in his capacity as the Future Claimants’ Representative under the Trust Agreement (the “FCR”), an individual empowered under the Trust Agreement to represent the interests of future holders of asbestos personal injury claims are no longer deemed to be part of a group of persons (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) with the Trust. Neither the TAC nor the FCR own any shares of Common Stock. Based on Owens Corning’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, there were 117,835,363 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of January 31, 2014, the 4,600,000 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Trust represent less than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Since the Trust owns less than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Trust is no longer required to amend this Schedule 13D pursuant to Regulation 13D.

(b) The Trust (acting through its Trustees), has the sole investment and voting power for 4,600,000 shares of Common Stock. The TAC and the FCR no longer have any consent rights to the Trust’s exercise of its investment and voting power under the Trust Agreement with respect to the 4,600,000 shares of Common Stock held by the Trust.

(c) Except for the block trade of 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock on April 2, 2014 by the Trust, none of the Trust nor the Trustees has engaged in any transactions in the Common Stock that were effected during the past sixty days.

(d) No person, other than the Trust, has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the profits from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Trust.
