	3.	 Benefits. 



a. Severance Benefits. Subject to Sections 4, 5, 6 and 10, if the Participant has a Qualified Termination, the Participant shall be
eligible to receive the following payments and benefits: 
 i. a lump sum cash payment of accrued but unpaid salary and accrued but unused
vacation as of the Participant’s date of termination (net of applicable taxes and withholdings), payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices (typically within 15 days following the date of termination), or earlier if
required by applicable law; 
 ii. a lump sum cash payment (net of applicable taxes and withholdings) based on the Participant’s annual
bonus that would have been payable with respect to the fiscal year in which the Qualified Termination occurs (determined at the end of such year based on actual performance results through the end of such year), prorated to the nearest half-month to
reflect the portion of the fiscal year that had elapsed prior to the Participant’s date of termination, and payable at the same time as annual bonuses are payable to other employees of the Company; 

iii. a lump sum cash payment (net of applicable taxes and withholdings), payable within 60 days following the Participant’s date of
termination, based on the Participant’s participation level under the Plan as of the Participant’s date of termination, as follows: 
  

	 	A.	 Tier I Employees: 2.0 times Base Salary, plus 2.0 times Bonus; or 



  
 4 














	 	B.	 Tier II Employees: 1.0 times Base Salary, plus 1.0 times Bonus; or 



 

	 	C.	 Tier III Employees: 1.0 times Base Salary; 



iv. a lump sum cash payment (net of applicable taxes and withholdings), payable within 60 days following the Participant’s date of
termination, equal to the monthly cost to provide group medical, dental, vision and/or prescription drug plan benefits sponsored by the Company and maintained by the Participant as of the date of the Participant’s termination of employment,
multiplied by twelve (12) months. For purposes of this Section 3(a)(iv), the cost of such benefits will be calculated based on the “applicable premium” determined in accordance with Code Section 4980B(f)(4) and the
regulations issued thereunder (less the 2% administrative fee and less the active-employee rate for such coverage) for the year in which the termination of employment occurs; subject to Section 10 of this Plan, stock options, stock appreciation
rights (SARs), restricted stock units (RSUs) and other stock and cash awards with time based vesting restrictions granted under the Omnibus Plans and held by a Participant who is an Executive Officer as of the date of such Participant’s
Qualified Termination shall become immediately vested as of the date of such Participant’s Qualified Termination, but only with respect to the number of awards that otherwise would have become vested on the award’s next regularly scheduled
vesting date based on continued employment; 
 v. subject to Section 10 of this Plan, performance-based stock and cash awards granted
under the Omnibus Plans and held by a Participant who is an Executive Officer as of the date of such Participant’s Qualified Termination shall remain outstanding and shall be earned, if at all, based on actual performance through the end of the
performance period, prorated to the nearest half-month to reflect the portion of the performance period that had elapsed prior to the Participant’s Qualified Termination, payable on the regular payment date for such awards. 

vi. any stock options and SARs that are vested (or become vested) and unexercised as of the date of the Qualified Termination and are held by
a Participant shall expire on the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the Qualified Termination, or (ii) their regular termination date; provided, however, that if the
Participant dies before the earlier of such dates, then the stock options and SARs that are vested and unexercised as of the Qualified Termination shall not expire until twenty-four (24) months after the date of the Participant’s death;
and 
 vii. with respect to a Participant who is an Executive Officer as of the date of such Participant’s Qualified Termination and
who has at least five years of Company-recognized service with the Company as of the Qualified Termination, full and immediate vesting of any benefit under any funded or unfunded nonqualified pension, retirement or deferred compensation plan now or
hereafter maintained by the Company in which the Participant participates, with payment to be made at such time and in accordance with the terms of such plan(s). 

  
 5 













 b. Death Benefits. If a Participant has a Qualified Termination, but subsequently
dies before receiving some or all of the Severance Benefits, such remaining benefits will be paid to the Participant’s estate as soon as practicable after his or her death. 

c. Non-Duplication of Benefits. In the event that a Participant becomes entitled to receive
Severance Benefits under this Plan and may also be eligible for benefits under any other Company plan, program, arrangement or agreement as a result of the Participant’s termination of employment, the Participant shall be entitled to receive
the greater of the Severance Benefits available under this Plan, on the one hand, and the benefits available under such other plan, program, arrangement or agreement, on the other, but not both. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Participant is
entitled to receive Severance Benefits under this Plan, he or she will not be eligible to receive any benefits under the Company’s Layoff Payment Plan. Conversely, if a Participant is entitled to receive benefits under the Genworth Financial,
Inc. 2014 Change of Control Plan, he or she will not be eligible to receive Severance Benefits under this Plan. In addition, if any termination payments made to a Participant by the Company are related to an actual or potential liability under the
Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN) or similar law, such amounts shall reduce (offset) the Participant’s Severance Benefit under this Plan. 
  

	4.	 Restrictive Covenants. Any Severance Benefits payable pursuant to this Plan (except for any payment
pursuant to Section 3(a)(i) of the Plan) shall only be payable if the Participant executes, delivers to the Company and does not revoke a restrictive covenant agreement in a form acceptable to the Company (which may be contained in the same
agreement as the full general release required by Section 6), which agreement will contain, at a minimum, provisions substantially similar to the following: 



a. Confidential Information and Confidentiality. In connection with his or her employment with the Company, the Participant previously
executed a Conditions of Employment acknowledgment obligating the Participant to comply with the terms of the Company’s Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement (“PIIA”), which is incorporated herein by reference. The
Participant acknowledges and reaffirms his or her obligation to comply with the terms of the PIIA. This Plan is not intended to, and does not, alter either the Company’s rights or the Participant’s obligations under the PIIA or any state
or federal statutory or common law regarding trade secrets and unfair trade practices. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Participant shall not be restricted from disclosing information that is required to be disclosed by law,
court order or other valid and appropriate legal process; provided, however, that in the event such disclosure is required by law, the Participant shall provide the Company with prompt notice of such requirement so that the Company may seek an
appropriate protective order prior to any such required disclosure by the Participant. Unless otherwise publicly disclosed by the Company, the Participant agrees to keep his or her participation in this Plan strictly confidential and agrees not to
disclose it to any person at any time, other than the Participant’s family or legal and financial advisors, who shall be subject to the same confidentiality provisions. 

  
 6 













 b. Non-Disparagement. Subject to any
obligations the Participant may have under applicable law, the Participant will not make or cause to be made any statements that disparage, are inimical to, or damage the reputation of the Company or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, agents,
officers, directors or employees. In the event such a communication is made to anyone, including but not limited to the media, public interest groups and publishing companies, it will be considered a material breach of the terms of the Plan. Nothing
in this section shall limit a Participant’s ability to provide truthful testimony or information in response to a subpoena, court order, or investigation by a government agency. 

c. Non-Competition. Unless waived in writing by the most senior Human Resources officer of the
Company (or his or her successor), the Participant shall not, during the Non-Competition Period, (i) carry on or engage in Competitive Services on behalf of a Prohibited Competitor within the Restricted
Territory on his or her own or on behalf of any other person or entity, or (ii) own, manage, operate, join, control or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control, of any Prohibited Competitor. 

d. Non-Solicitation of Customers or Clients by Participants. Unless waived in writing by the
most senior Human Resources officer of the Company (or his or her successor), the Participant shall not, during the Restricted Period, directly or indirectly, solicit or contact any of the customers or clients of the Company with whom the
Participant had material contact during his or her employment, regardless of the location of such customers or clients, for the purpose of engaging in, providing, marketing, or selling any services or products that are competitive with the services
and products being offered by the Company. 
 e. Non-Solicitation of Company Employees. Unless
waived in writing by the most senior Human Resources officer of the Company (or his or her successor), the Participant shall will not, during the Restricted Period, directly or indirectly, solicit or encourage any director, agent or employee of the
Company to terminate his or her employment or other engagement with the Company. 
 f. Return of Materials. Each Participant agrees
that he or she will not retain or destroy (except as set forth below), and will immediately return to the Company on or prior to the termination of Participant’s employment with the Company, or at any other time the Company requests such
return, any and all property of the Company that is in his or her possession or subject to his or her control, including, but not limited to, keys, credit and identification cards, personal items or equipment, customer files and information, papers,
drawings, notes, manuals, specifications, designs, devices, code, email, documents, diskettes, CDs, tapes, access cards, computers, mobile devices, other electronic media, all other files and documents relating to the Company and its


  
 7 













 
business (regardless of form, but specifically including all electronic files and data of the Company), together with all Developments (as defined in the PIIA) and all secret or confidential
information covered by the PIIA, belonging to the Company or that a Participant received from or through his or her employment with the Company. Each Participant agrees not to make, distribute, or retain copies of any such information or property.
To the extent that a Participant has electronic files or information in his or her possession or control that belong to the Company, contain secret or confidential information covered by the PIIA, or constitute Developments under the PIIA
(specifically including but not limited to electronic files or information stored on personal computers, mobile devices, electronic media, or in cloud storage), on or prior to the termination of such Participant’s employment with the Company,
or at any other time the Company requests, such Participant shall (a) provide the Company with an electronic copy of all of such files or information (in an electronic format that readily accessible by the Company); (b) after doing so, delete
all such files and information, including all copies and derivatives thereof, from all non-Company-owned computers, mobile devices, electronic media, cloud storage, or other media, devices, or equipment, such
that such files and information are permanently deleted and irretrievable; and (c) provide a written certification to the Company that the required deletions have been completed and specifying the files and information deleted and the media
source from which they were deleted. Each Participant agrees that he or she will reimburse the Company for all of its costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, of recovering the above materials and otherwise enforcing compliance with this
provision if he or she does not return the materials to the Company or take the required steps with respect to electronic information or files on or prior to the termination of such Participant’s employment with the Company or at any other time
the materials and/or electronic file actions are requested by the Company or if such Participant otherwise fails to comply with this provision. 

g. Remedies. Participants specifically acknowledge and agree that the remedy at law for any breach of the provisions of this
Section 4 (the “Restrictive Covenants”) will be inadequate, and that in the event a Participant breaches, or threatens to breach, any of the Restrictive Covenants, the Company shall have the right and remedy, without the necessity of
proving actual damage or posting any bond, to enjoin, preliminarily and permanently, such Participant from violating or threatening to violate the Restrictive Covenants and to have the Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced by any court of
competent jurisdiction, it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach of the Restrictive Covenants would cause irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to the Company. Such rights and
remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company at law or in equity. Participants understand and agree that, if the Company and a Participant become involved in legal action regarding the
enforcement of the Restrictive Covenants and if the Company prevails in such legal action, the Company will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy, to recover from such Participant its reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in
enforcing such covenants. The Company’s ability to enforce its rights under the Restrictive Covenants or applicable law against a Participant shall not be impaired in any way by the existence of a claim or cause of action on the part of such
Participant based on, or arising out of, this Plan or any other agreement, event or transaction. 

  
 8 













 h. Severability and Modification of Covenants. Participants acknowledge and agree
that each of the Restrictive Covenants is reasonable and valid in time and scope and in all other respects. Participants and the Company agree that it is their intention that the Restrictive Covenants be enforced in accordance with their terms to
the maximum extent permitted by law. Each of the Restrictive Covenants shall be considered and construed as a separate and independent covenant. Should any part or provision of any of the Restrictive Covenants be held invalid, void, or
unenforceable, such invalidity, voidness, or unenforceability shall not render invalid, void, or unenforceable any other part or provision of this Plan or such Restrictive Covenant. If any of the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants should ever
be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the scope permitted by the applicable law, such provision or provisions shall be automatically modified to such lesser scope as such court may deem just and proper for the reasonable protection
of the Company’s legitimate business interests and may be enforced by the Company to that extent in the manner described above and all other provisions of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable. 

 

	5.	 No Duty to Mitigate/Set-off. No Participant entitled to receive
Severance Benefits hereunder shall be required to seek other employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to him or her pursuant to this Plan. Further, the amount of Severance Benefits payable hereunder shall not be reduced by
any compensation earned by the Participant as a result of employment by another employer or otherwise. Except as provided herein, the amounts payable hereunder shall not be subject to setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which
the Company may have against the Participant or others. In the event of the Participant’s breach of any provision hereunder, including without limitation, Sections 4, 5 or 6, the Company shall be entitled to recover any payments previously made
to the Participant hereunder. 


  

	6.	 Release Required. Any Severance Benefits payable pursuant to this Plan (except for any payment pursuant
to Section 3(a)(i) of the Plan) shall only be payable if the Participant executes, delivers to the Company and does not revoke a full general release of all claims of any kind whatsoever that the Participant has or may have against the Company
and its Affiliates and their officers, directors and employees, known or unknown, arising on or before the date on which the Participant executes such release (other than claims to payments specifically provided hereunder; claims to vested accrued
benefits under the Company’s tax-qualified employee benefit plans; claims for reimbursement under the Company’s medical reimbursement program for any unreimbursed medical expenses incurred on or
before the Participant’s date of termination; claims for 



  
 9 














	 	
unreimbursed business expenses in accordance with the Company’s policy or rights of indemnification or contribution to which the Participant was entitled under the Company’s By-laws, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise with regard to the Participant’s service as an employee, officer or director of the Company; or claims that the Participant cannot by law
release) in a form acceptable to the Company. The release will not limit a Participant’s ability to file a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any other federal, state or local governmental agency or
commission (“Government Agencies”), nor will it limit a Participant’s ability to communicate with any Government Agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agencies in
connection with any charge or complaint, whether filed by such Participant, on his or her behalf, or by any other individual. Such release must be executed and all revocation periods shall have expired within 60 days after the Participant’s
date of termination; failing which all Severance Benefits shall be forfeited. If any payment or benefit hereunder constitutes non-exempt deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, and
if such 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in the next calendar year, the payment or benefit shall not be made or commence before the second such calendar year, even if the release becomes
irrevocable in the first such calendar year. 

  

	7.	 Funding. Participants shall have no right, title, or interest whatsoever in or to any investments that
the Company and/or its Affiliates may make to aid it in meeting its obligations under the Plan. Nothing contained in the Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary
relationship between the Company and any Participant, beneficiary, legal representative, or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the
right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. All payments to be made hereunder shall be paid from the general funds of the Company and no special or separate fund shall be established and no segregation of assets shall be made to assure
payment of such amounts except as expressly set forth in the Plan. 


  

	8.	 Administration of the Plan. 



a. Plan Administrator. The administrator of the Plan shall be the Committee. 

b. Authority of the Committee. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee shall have full discretion and authority
to determine a Participant’s participation and benefits under the Plan and to interpret and construe the provisions of the Plan. 
 c.
Delegation of Authority. The Committee may delegate any or all of its powers and responsibilities hereunder to other persons. Any such delegation shall not be effective until it is accepted by the persons designated by the Committee and may
be rescinded at any time by written notice from the Committee to the person to whom the delegation is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not delegate any of its powers or responsibilities with respect to any matters relating to
or involving an Executive Officer of the Company. 

  
 10 













 d. Retention of Professional Assistance. The Committee may employ such legal counsel,
accountants and other persons as may be required in carrying out its duties and responsibilities in connection with the Plan. 
 e.
Claims/Disputes Procedure. 
 i. Prior to paying any benefit under the Plan, the Committee may require the Participant to provide such
information or material as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall deem necessary for it to make any determination it may be required to make under the Plan. The Committee may withhold payments of any benefit under the Plan until it receives
all such information and material and is reasonably satisfied of its accuracy. 
 ii. Claims for benefits under the Plan should be forwarded
to the Committee. The Committee shall provide adequate notice in writing to a Participant whose claim for benefits is denied, setting forth the specific reasons for such denial. In the event of the denial of a claim, the Participant has the right to
file a written request for a review of the denial with the Committee within 90 days after the Participant receives written notice of the denial. If a Participant requests such a review, the Committee will conduct a full and fair review of the claim
for benefits and will deliver to the Participant a written decision on that claim within 60 days after the receipt of the written request for review, unless there are special circumstances requiring an extension of the time for review, in which case
the 60-day period may be extended by the Committee up to a period of 120 days after the receipt of the written request for review. 

iii. All acts and decisions of the Committee shall be final and binding upon the Participant. 

f. Indemnification. The Committee, its members and any person designated pursuant to Section 8(c) above shall not be liable for any
action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan. The Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, by the purchase of insurance or otherwise, indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Committee and each director, officer
and employee of the Company for liabilities or expenses they and each of them incur in carrying out their respective duties under this Plan, other than for any liabilities or expenses arising out of such individual’s willful misconduct or
fraud. 
  

	9.	 Effect of Participant’s Breach. If a Participant breaches any of the provisions of this Plan,
including but not limited to the Restrictive Covenants in Section 4, the Participant will be required to reimburse the Company for any and all Severance Benefits provided under the terms of the Plan (other than those that were already vested
without respect to the Plan), and all obligations of the Company under the Plan to provide any additional payments or benefits to the Participant will cease immediately and be null and void. 



  
 11 














	10.	 Code Section 409A. 



a. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, to the extent that any amount or benefit that would constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code would otherwise be payable or distributable hereunder by reason of a Participant’s termination of employment, such
amount or benefit will not be payable or distributable to the Participant by reason of such circumstance unless (i) the circumstances giving rise to such termination of employment meet any description or definition of “separation from
service” in Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations (without giving effect to any elective provisions that may be available under such definition), or (ii) the payment or distribution of such amount or benefit would be
exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code by reason of the short-term deferral exemption or otherwise. This provision does not prohibit the vesting of any amount upon a termination of employment, however defined. If this
provision prevents the payment or distribution of any amount or benefit, such payment or distribution shall be made on the date, if any, on which an event occurs that constitutes a Section 409A-compliant “separation from service.”

 b. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, if any amount or benefit that would constitute
non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code would otherwise be payable or distributable under this Plan by reason of a Participant’s separation from service
during a period in which he or she is a Specified Employee (as defined below), then, subject to any permissible acceleration of payment by the Company under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ii)
(domestic relations order), (j)(4)(iii) (conflicts of interest), or (j)(4)(vi) (payment of employment taxes): 
 i. if the
payment or distribution is payable in a lump sum, the Participant’s right to receive payment or distribution of such non-exempt deferred compensation will be delayed until the earlier of the
Participant’s death or the first business day of the seventh month following the Participant’s separation from service; and 

ii. if the payment or distribution is payable over time, the amount of such non-exempt
deferred compensation that would otherwise be payable during the six-month period immediately following the Participant’s separation from service will be accumulated and the Participant’s right to
receive payment or distribution of such accumulated amount will be delayed until the earlier of the Participant’s death or the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s separation from service, whereupon the accumulated
amount will be paid or distributed to the Participant and the normal payment or distribution schedule for any remaining payments or distributions will resume. 

  
 12 













 For purposes of this Plan, the term “Specified Employee” has the meaning given such term in Code
Section 409A and the final regulations thereunder (“Final 409A Regulations”), provided, however, that, as permitted in the Final 409A Regulations, the Company’s Specified Employees and its application of the six-month delay rule of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) shall be determined in accordance with rules adopted by the Company, which shall be applied consistently with respect to all nonqualified deferred
compensation arrangements of the Company, including this Plan. 
  

	11.	 Duration. The Plan shall become effective as of the Effective Date, and shall continue in effect until
terminated by the Board or the Committee. Subject to Section 12, the Committee or the Board may terminate the Plan as of any date that is at least 3 months after the date of the Committee or the Board’s action. If any Participants become
entitled to any payments or benefits hereunder during such 3-month period, this Plan shall continue in full force and effect and shall not terminate or expire with respect to such Participants until after all
such Participants have received such payments and benefits in full. 


  

	12.	 Amendment and Termination. The Plan may be amended from time to time in any respect by the Committee or
the Board; provided, however, that any amendment that would adversely affect the rights or potential rights of Participants shall not be effective for at least 3 months after the date of the Committee or the Board’s action.



 In the event of the Company’s demotion of a Participant, without Cause, resulting in a loss or reduction of benefits, such loss or
