Re: Restricted Stock Incentive Plans
Dear Xx. Xxxxxxxxx:
This will confirm (i) our arrangements regarding reimbursement of costs
relating to unvested incentive award shares of Masco Corporation ("Masco")
common stock and Masco Industries, Inc. ("Industries") common stock upon
transfers of employment and consulting relationships between Masco and
Industries, (ii) our arrangements regarding reimbursement upon forfeitures of
such shares, and (iii) our prior understandings on the implementation of the
Stock Repurchase Agreement dated May 1, 1984 between Masco and Industries with
respect to Industries' repurchases of its common stock from Masco following the
forfeiture of shares of Industries common stock granted under either Masco's or
Industries' restricted stock incentive plan (the "Industries Stock Incentive
Plans") and following open market repurchases of such stock by Industries.
These procedures have been established in order to attribute the cost of such
incentive shares in respect of the employees of and consultants to Masco and
Industries and to permit Masco, among other things, to achieve its expressed
objective of maintaining its equity ownership in Industries at not more than
50% after any forfeiture of Industries incentive award shares. These procedures
are not intended to alter the rights of the parties under the Corporate
Restructuring Plan or the Stock Repurchase Agreement except as expressly
provided herein, and may be terminated by Masco or Industries at any time
without cause, effective ten days after notice of termination.

1. Transfers.
If a person changes employment or a consulting relationship from Masco
to Industries or from Industries to Masco, the new employer will reimburse the
former employer for the cost on the books of the former employer which is
associated with unvested shares of Masco common stock or Industries common
stock awarded under a Masco or Industries incentive plan, to the extent such
shares may continue to vest while the person is engaged by the new employer.
2. Forfeitures By Industries Employees And Consultants.
A. Shares of Industries common stock forfeited by an Industries
employee or consultant which were granted pursuant to either of the Industries
Stock Incentive Plans are deemed automatically acquired by Industries from the
employee or consultant as of the date of the forfeiture notwithstanding any
contrary provision in either of the Industries Stock Incentive Plans.
Industries waives its right under Paragraph 4.02 of the Corporate Restructuring
Plan to require Masco to pay Industries an amount equal to the unamortized cost
of Industries shares forfeited by Industries employees which were granted under
Masco's Industries Stock Incentive Plan and no amount is payable by Industries
to Masco on account of Industries' acquisition of such forfeited shares.
B. Shares of Masco common stock that were granted under the Masco
Restricted Stock Incentive Plan are forfeited by Industries employees and
consultants to Masco upon termination of employment or the consulting
relationship. Masco will reimburse Industries for the cost on Industries' books
which is associated with such forfeited Masco shares.
3. Forfeitures By Masco Employees And Consultants.
If Masco's equity ownership in Industries would exceed 50% at the end
of any month, shares of Industries common stock forfeited by Masco employees
and consultants during such month are deemed automatically acquired by
Industries from those employees and consultants (notwithstanding any contrary
provision in Masco's Industries Stock Incentive Plan) on the last day of such
month to the extent necessary so that Masco's ownership will not exceed 50% as
of such

date. Industries will reimburse Masco for its loss arising from such forfeiture
by paying to Masco an amount equal to the fair market value of such shares (as
determined under Paragraph 4 hereof) on the last trading day of such month.
4. Repurchase of Industries Shares On Account Of Forfeitures. If
Masco's equity ownership in Industries would exceed 50% at the end of any month
in which forfeited Industries shares are deemed automatically acquired by
Industries, Industries is deemed to repurchase from Masco, on the last day of
such month, additional shares of Industries common stock to the extent
necessary so that Masco's ownership of Industries common stock does not exceed
50% as of the last day of such month. Pursuant to Paragraph 2(b) of the Stock
Repurchase Agreement, the price for the Industries shares so repurchased from
Masco is the fair market value of such shares at the close of trading on the
last trading day of such month (which is determined by the last sale price for
Industries shares as reported in the NASDAQ National Market System).
5. Repurchase of Industries Shares On Account Of Open Market Purchases.
If Masco's equity ownership in Industries would exceed 50% at the end of any
month in which Industries makes open market purchases of its common stock in
connection with awards of shares under its Industries Stock Incentive Plan or
in connection with employee stock options, Industries is deemed to repurchase
from Masco, on the last day of such month, shares of Industries common stock to
the extent necessary so that Masco's ownership of Industries common stock does
not exceed 50% as of the last day of such month. Notwithstanding Paragraph 2(a)
of the Stock Repurchase Agreement, the price for the Industries shares so
repurchased from Masco is the weighted average price paid by Industries for its
open market share purchases during such month. If Masco's equity ownership of
Industries would exceed 50% at the end of any month in which forfeited
Industries shares are deemed automatically acquired by Industries and in which
Industries makes open market purchases of the types contemplated under
Paragraph 5 hereof, shares shall be deemed to be repurchased by Industries
first pursuant to Paragraph 4. If, after such repurchases pursuant to Paragraph
4, Masco's equity ownership would still exceed 50%, shares shall then be deemed
to be repurchased by Industries pursuant to this Paragraph 5.

6. Quarterly Settlement. Masco and Industries will effect a quarterly
settlement of the amounts required hereunder to be (i) reimbursed upon the
transfer of employment or a consulting relationship between Masco and
Industries, (ii) reimbursed to Masco upon the forfeiture of Industries shares
by Masco employees and consultants, (iii) reimbursed to Industries upon the
forfeiture of Masco shares by Industries employees and consultants, and (iv)
paid to Masco for any repurchase of Industries shares pursuant to Paragraphs 4
and 5 hereof.
7. Additional Provisions.
A. Appropriate instructions will be given to Industries' transfer agent
to reflect Industries' ownership of forfeited Industries shares and repurchase
of additional Industries shares.
X. Xxxxx and Industries will promptly notify each other of forfeitures
of shares which are subject to these procedures.
C. These procedures are deemed to be effective as of May 1, 1984,
notwithstanding the fact that certain reports prepared prior to the date hereof
are inconsistent herewith, and this letter supersedes any prior arrangements
with respect to such procedures.
Please confirm your agreement with the foregoing procedures.
Sincerely,
