MASCO CORP /DE/

The proposal requests that Masco amend its governing documents so that holders of a combined 10% of outstanding common stock — or the lowest percentage allowed by law — can call a special shareholder meeting, and that such meetings may be held online. It further asks that no minimum ownership period be required to participate in calling a special meeting and that no “poison pill” style restrictions be imposed to limit such rights. The proponent argues this right is a safeguard to prompt board and management responsiveness when performance or governance concerns arise, citing recent weak quarterly results and tariff pressures in 2025 as context. The submission references prior shareholder support for similar proposals at other companies and asserts that special meetings are rarely called and typically prompt resolution of issues.
