</B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Certain sections of this registration statement contain statements reflecting the Company&#146;s views about its future
performance and constitute &#147;forward-looking statements&#148; under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the &#147;Reform Act&#148;) provides a safe harbor for
forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of Masco Corporation. The Company and its representatives may, from time to time, make written or oral forward-looking statements, including statements contained in the Company&#146;s filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and in its reports to stockholders. Generally, the inclusion of the words &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148; &#147;intend,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;project,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148;
&#147;will&#148; and similar expressions identify statements that constitute forward-looking statements. All statements addressing operating performance of the Company or any subsidiary, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates
would occur in the future are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">These views involve risks and
uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, accordingly, the Company&#146;s actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in such forward-looking statements. Readers should consider the various factors, including those
discussed in our annual report for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2012 under &#147;Risk Factors,&#148; &#147;Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,&#148; &#147;Critical Accounting Policies and
Estimates&#148; and &#147;Outlook for the Company.&#148; The forward-looking statements are and will be based upon management&#146;s then-current views and assumptions regarding future events and operating performance, and are applicable only as of
the dates of such statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Factors that affect our results of operations include the levels of home improvement activity and new home construction principally in North America and Europe, the importance of our relationships with
key customers (including The Home Depot, our largest customer in 2012, representing approximately 28 percent of our consolidated net sales, and Lowe&#146;s, our second largest customer in 2012, representing less than ten percent of our consolidated
net sales), our ability to maintain our leadership positions in our U.S. and global markets in the face of increasing competition and our ability to effectively manage our overall cost structure, including the cost and availability of materials.
Additional factors that may significantly affect our performance are discussed under &#147;Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations&#148; in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q that are on file with the SEC. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus,

the sale to the applicable holders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Withdrawal of Underlying Preferred Stock</I>. Unless we say otherwise in a prospectus

money and other property represented by the related depositary shares. We will not issue any partial shares of preferred stock. If the holder delivers depositary receipts evidencing a number of depositary shares that represent more than a whole

depositary resulting from the redemption, in whole or in part, of that series of underlying stock held by the depositary. The redemption price per depositary share will be equal to the applicable fraction of the redemption price per share payable
with respect to that series of underlying stock. Whenever we redeem shares of underlying stock that are held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem, as of the same redemption date, the number of depositary shares representing the shares of
underlying stock so redeemed. If fewer than all of the depositary shares are to be redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot or proportionately, as may be determined by the depositary. </FONT></P>

will mail the information contained in the notice to the record holders of the depositary shares underlying the preferred stock. Each record holder of the depositary shares on the record date (which will be the same date as the record date for the
underlying stock) will be entitled to instruct the depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of the underlying stock represented by that holder&#146;s depositary shares. The depositary will then try, as far as
practicable, to vote the number of shares of preferred stock underlying those depositary shares in accordance with those instructions, and we will agree to take all actions which may be deemed necessary by the depositary to enable the depositary to

shares may surrender the related depositary receipts to the depositary with written instructions to instruct us to cause conversion of the preferred stock represented by the depositary shares into or for whole shares of common stock or shares of
another series of preferred stock of Masco, as applicable. Upon receipt of those instructions and any amounts payable by the holder in connection with the conversion, we will cause the conversion using the same procedures as those provided for
conversion of the deposited preferred stock. If only some of the depositary shares are to be converted, a new depositary receipt or receipts will be issued for any depositary shares not to be converted. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Ownership of beneficial interests in a global security will be limited to persons that have accounts with the depositary for such global
security (&#147;participants&#148;) or persons that may hold interests through participants. Upon the issuance of a global security, the depositary for such global security will credit, on its book- entry registration and transfer system, the
participants&#146; accounts with the respective principal or face amounts of the securities represented by such global security beneficially owned by such participants. The accounts to be credited shall be designated by any dealers, underwriters or
agents participating in the distribution of such securities. Ownership of beneficial interests in such global security will be shown on, and the transfer of such ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary
for such global security, with respect to interests of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests of persons holding through participants. The laws of some states may require that some purchasers of securities take
physical delivery of such securities in definitive form. Such limits and such laws may impair the ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in global securities. So long as the depositary for a global security, or its nominee, is the
registered owner of such global security, such depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of such securities represented by such global security for all purposes under the applicable indenture, unit
agreement or warrant agreement. Except as set forth below, owners of beneficial interests in a global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by such global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled
to receive physical delivery of such securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the applicable indenture, unit agreement or warrant agreement. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in
a global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for such global security and, if such person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which such person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder
under applicable indenture, unit agreement or warrant agreement. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a global security desires to give or take any
action which a holder is entitled to give or take under applicable indenture, unit agreement or warrant agreement, the depositary for such global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take
such action, and such participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through such participants to give or take such action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them. </FONT></P>

have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in such global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial
ownership interests. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We expect that the depositary for any of the securities represented by a global security, upon receipt

respective beneficial interests in such global security as shown on the records of such depositary. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in such global security held through such participants will be
governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in &#147;street name,&#148; and will be the responsibility of such

Office and at the office of any agent of the Depositary) sets forth the rights of holders of Receipts and the rights and duties of the Depositary. The statements made on the face and the reverse of this Receipt are summaries of certain provisions of

Company or the Depositary shall be required by law to withhold and does withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of the Stock an amount on account of taxes, the amount made available for distribution or distributed in
