Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

The following supplements the disclosure set forth in Masco Corporation’s (the “Company’s”) Form 8-K dated November 4, 2011 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 10, 2011.

The Company has entered into an agreement (the “Agreement”), effective January 1, 2012, with Donald J. DeMarie, Jr. in connection with his departure from the Company as its Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. Under the Agreement, Mr. DeMarie will provide consulting services to the Company for a period of at least two years. The Agreement prohibits Mr. DeMarie from entering into business opportunities and other activities competitive with the Company for a period of two years and also contains a release of claims against the Company, as well as non-solicitation, non-disclosure and non-disparagement provisions. In consideration for Mr. DeMarie’s obligations under the Agreement, he will receive $25,000 for two years and a total amount equal to twice his former base salary paid over two years. If the Company meets its performance targets for 2011, then based on the established formula, Mr. DeMarie will receive a cash payment under the cash incentive program and the cash value of the stock that would have been awarded to him under the Company’s equity incentive program. Mr. DeMarie’s outstanding shares of restricted stock will continue to vest in accordance with their original vesting schedule.
