Dear Rick:

I am pleased to confirm your offer of promotion for the position of Vice President, Masco Operating System for Masco Corporation, reporting to Keith Allman, with a start date (“Start Date”) of May 17, 2021.

The elements of your compensation package are described below and are subject to approval by the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”). Additionally, you will be recommended to be appointed as an Executive Officer of Masco by the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board.

You will participate in the annual performance-based cash bonus program. Your new standard bonus opportunity is 50% of your annual base salary. In a typical year, your bonus can range from 0% to 100% of your annual base salary depending on Company and individual performance. For the 2021 performance year, your bonus opportunity will not be prorated, and you will be measured on Masco’s overall performance for the full year. Bonuses are determined after year-end and are normally paid out in February.

Equity Compensation
You will participate in the Company’s annual performance-based Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) program. Your target RSU award opportunity is 50% of your annual base salary. In a typical year, your RSU award can range from 0% to 100% of your annual base salary depending on Company and individual performance.

Stock awards are determined at year-end and are normally communicated in February.

You will be eligible to participate in our Long-Term Incentive Program (LTIP). Masco believes a long-term incentive program provides a meaningful incentive for our executive to achieve long-term growth and profitability. The LTIP is a three-year performance plan issued in the form of Performance Restricted Stock Units (PRSUs). A grant of PRSUs entitles you to receive shares of our stock to the extent at least the threshold performance goal is met over the three-year period. If the threshold goal is not achieved, there is not a payout. If the maximum goal is exceeded, the payout percentage is capped at 200% of the PRSUs granted. You will be eligible to participate in 2022-2024 LTIP. The 2022-2024 LTIP will be granted in February 2022. Your LTIP grant value target is 50% of your annual base salary.

The above information provides only a summary of certain terms of our equity compensation program.
