 Exhibit 10.6 
 2012 Genworth Financial, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan 
 Nonemployee Director Awards

 Deferred Stock Units – Terms and Conditions 
 The 2012 Genworth Financial, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) authorizes the Board of Directors to grant Awards under the Plan to Nonemployee Directors. The Board of Directors has
approved a compensation program pursuant to which Nonemployee Directors are granted Deferred Stock Units (“DSUs”) from time to time as payment of part or all of their annual retainer. The DSUs are governed by the Plan and the
following terms and conditions (together, the “Terms and Conditions”). The Terms and Conditions shall constitute the Award Agreement as required by the Plan. 
 Unless the context otherwise requires, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. If there is any inconsistency between the Terms and Conditions and the terms of
the Plan, the Plan’s terms shall supersede and replace the conflicting terms of the Terms and Conditions. 
  

	1.	Grant. Nonemployee Directors shall be granted DSUs as of the end of each quarter of service as a member of the Board of Directors (the “Grant
Date”). Each Nonemployee Director will be notified following each Grant Date regarding the number of DSUs that have been awarded. Each DSU represents the right to receive from the Company one Share of Class A Common Stock. The DSUs are
fully vested as of the Grant Date. 

  

	2.	Dividend Equivalents. Until the grantee terminates service on the Board of Directors for any reason, he or she shall receive Dividend Equivalents with
respect to the DSUs equal to the number of DSUs times any dividend payments made to stockholders of the Company’s Class A common stock. Such Dividend Equivalents will be reinvested in additional DSUs, based on the Fair Market Value of the
Shares as of the date the dividend payment. 

  

	3.	Conversion to Shares. The DSUs granted on a quarterly basis, together with additional DSUs accumulated pursuant to paragraph 2, will convert to Shares on
a one-for-one basis, based on grantee’s prior election (i) one year after termination of service on the Board of Directors, or (ii) in up to ten annual installments beginning one year after termination of service on the Board of
Directors. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, all outstanding DSUs will convert to Shares upon the holder’s death. 

  

	4.	No Voting Rights. Grantee will not have any voting rights with respect to the DSUs until they are converted to Shares.

 

	5.	Change of Control. Settlement of DSUs shall not accelerate upon a Change of Control. 

 

	6.	Administration. The DSUs and a grantee’s rights thereunder, as set forth in these Terms and Conditions, are subject to all the terms and conditions
of the Plan, as the same may be amended from time to time, as well as to such rules and regulations as the Board of Directors may adopt for administration of Nonemployee Director Awards under the Plan. It is expressly understood that the Board of
Directors is authorized to administer, construe, and make all determinations necessary or appropriate to the administration of Nonemployee Director Awards under the Plan and these Terms and Conditions, all of which shall be binding upon the grantee.

  

	7.	Limitation of Rights. The DSUs do not entitle the grantee to any rights of a stockholder of the Company, nor do they confer upon the grantee any right to
continuation of service on the Board of Directors. 

  

	8.	Plan. A copy of the Plan will be furnished upon request.

	9.	Amendment, Modification, Suspension, and Termination. The Board of Directors shall have the right at any time in its sole discretion, subject to certain
restrictions, to alter, amend, modify, suspend, or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, and shall have the right at any time in its sole discretion to alter, amend, modify, suspend or terminate the terms and conditions of any Nonemployee Director
Award; provided, however, that no such action shall adversely affect in any material way an Award without the grantee’s written consent. 

 

	10.	Applicable Law. The validity, construction, interpretation, and enforceability of these Terms and Conditions shall be determined and governed by the laws
of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law. 

  

	11.	Entire Agreement. These Terms and Conditions, the Plan, and the rules and procedures adopted by the Board of Directors in respect of Nonemployee Director
Awards contain all of the provisions applicable to the DSUs and no other statements, documents or practices may modify, waive or alter such provisions unless expressly set forth in writing, signed by an authorized officer of the Company and
delivered to the grantee.

Directors (the “Board”). The Executive acknowledges that the Board may delegate to a committee of the Board any matter referred to in this Agreement as being for the Board’s determination. 

2. COMPENSATION, VACATION AND BENEFITS. 
 2.1 The Company agrees to pay Executive an annual base salary in the amount of $580,000.00, payable every two weeks. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with the Executive’s consent, such salary

Executive’s performance, and his base salary and bonus arrangement will be reviewed by the Board from time to time, as the Board determines in its sole discretion. 
 2.2 Executive’s paychecks will be distributed pursuant to ordinary business practice, and shall be subject to ordinary payroll deductions and tax withholdings. The Company also agrees to
provide Executive with benefits consistent with Company policy for senior executives. Details about these benefits are set forth in the employee handbook and summary plan descriptions, copies of which have been provided to Executive. Unless the
context otherwise requires, as used in this Agreement, “benefits” does not include any rights to the Company’s equity securities (whether stock options, restricted stock units, stock awards or other).

time to time; 
 (c) pay, or reimburse Executive, for the services of a personal tax and/or investment

 (d)
at the Board’s discretion, either (i) provide Executive with a car of such make and model as Executive and Board shall agree is commensurate with Executive’s position with the Company, including gas, insurance for such car and
reasonable maintenance thereof or (ii) pay Executive a monthly allowance for a car on an economic basis comparable to (i); provided, however, that Executive shall at all times (x) comply with all policies of the Company from time to time
in effect with respect to the maintenance and operation of motor vehicles, and (y) maintain a valid driver’s license; 

(e) provide Executive with up to 10 hours per month of bill paying and bookkeeping services in connection with the payment of the

 3. EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK. By signing this Agreement, Executive acknowledges that he has received and read the Company’s employee handbook. Executive agrees to abide by all company
policies and procedures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there shall be any conflict between this Agreement and such employee handbook, the terms of this Agreement shall govern. 
 4. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. 
 4.1 AT WILL. This
Agreement does not provide for a minimum term of employment and Executive may be terminated by the Company at will. 
 4.2
COMPANY INITIATED TERMINATION. 
 (a) In the event the Company terminates Executive’s employment without
cause, but not for reasons of Disability or death, Executive shall receive as severance a one-time payment equal to one month of his then annual salary multiplied by the number of calendar years (a fraction of a year shall be paid on a prorated
basis), but not to exceed a total of eighteen months, of Executive’s service with the Company, payable within fifteen (15) days of such termination or such longer period of time that Executive has to make effective the release required by
this Section 4.2 (a). In addition, the Company shall pay in one 

  
 2. 

 
lump sum the amounts payable pursuant to COBRA for Executive’s health insurance for the eighteen calendar months following such termination. No other benefits or payments shall be provided.
The Company’s obligation to make any payment or provide any benefit under this Section 4.2 (a) is conditioned upon the execution and delivery by the Executive of a release in favor of the Company. For purposes of this Agreement,
termination of Executive’s employment shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and Section 1.409A-1(h) of the
regulations promulgated under the Code or any successor regulations. 
 (b) In the event Executive’s employment is
terminated at any time with cause, all of Executive’s compensation and benefits will cease immediately, and Executive shall not be entitled to any severance benefits and all other benefits provided hereunder shall cease as of such termination.
For purposes of this Agreement, “cause” shall mean (i) conviction of any felony or any crime involving moral turpitude or dishonesty; (ii) participation in a fraud or act of dishonesty against the Company; (iii) willful
breach of the Company’s policies; (iv) intentional damage to the Company’s property; or (v) breach of this Agreement, the Proprietary Information Agreement, or any other agreements with the Company including, but not limited to
agreements regarding confidentiality or proprietary information. Physical or mental disability shall not constitute “cause”. Failure to accomplish corporate financial and management goals shall not constitute “cause”. 

(c) In the event Executive suffers and continues to suffer a disability that renders him unable to perform the essential functions
of his position, for three months within any six-month period (“Disability”), the Company shall, for eighteen months commencing at the conclusion of such three-month period of disability, (i) continue to pay Executive his annual base
salary, (ii) continue to provide Executive’s health insurance and (ii) maintain life insurance in the manner and in the amount set forth in Section 2.3(b) hereof. If upon the conclusion of the eighteen-month period, Executive
remains unable to perform the essential functions of the job, or the Company has no suitable vacant position for him, Executive’s employment shall be terminated. 
 4.3 EXECUTIVE INITIATED TERMINATION. Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment with the Company at any time by giving the Board 60 days written notice. In the event Executive voluntarily
terminates his employment with the Company, all of Executive’s compensation and benefits will cease as of such termination date. Executive acknowledges that he will not receive any severance pay or benefits, except as defined in the Employee
Handbook, and except as specified in this Agreement at Section 5.2 if applicable, upon such voluntary termination. 
 4.4
LIMITATION ON COMPENSATION. Except as expressly provided in Section 4.2 or Section 5.2, Executive will not be entitled to any other compensation, severance, pay-in-lieu of notice or any such compensation. 

  
 3. 

 5. CHANGE OF CONTROL.  

5.1 DEFINITIONS. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall mean: 

(a) any reorganization, consolidation or merger of the Company in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or pursuant to
which shares of the Company’s voting stock would be converted into cash, securities or other property, in either case other than a merger of the Company in which the holders of the Company’s voting stock immediately prior to the merger
have the same proportionate ownership of voting stock of the surviving corporation immediately after the merger; 
 (b)
the sale, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) to a third party not affiliated as of the date of this Agreement with the Company of at least a majority of the voting stock of the Company; or

 (c) the sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all, or
substantially all, of the assets of the Company. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, “good reason” for voluntary
termination shall mean: (i) reduction of Executive’s rate of salary compensation as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control by more than five percent; (ii) failure to provide a package of welfare benefit plans which,
taken as a whole, provide substantially similar benefits to those in which Executive is entitled to participate immediately prior to the Change of Control (except that employee contributions may be raised to the extent of any cost increases imposed
by third parties) or any action by the Company which would adversely affect Executive’s participation or reduce Executive’s benefits under any of such plans; (iii) change in Executive’s responsibilities, authority, titles or
offices resulting in diminution of position, excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith which is remedied by the Company promptly after notice thereof is given by Executive (it being
understood that the fact that the Company is no longer a public company or an ultimate parent entity shall not be a basis for diminution); (iv) request that Executive relocate to a worksite that is more than 35 miles from his prior worksite,
unless Executive accepts such relocation opportunity; (vi) failure or refusal of the successor company to assume the Company’s obligations under this Agreement; or (vii) material breach by the Company or any successor company of any
of the material provisions of this Agreement. 
 5.2 OPERATIVE PROVISIONS 

(a) In the event of Executive’s termination of employment hereunder either by the Company without cause, or by Executive for
good reason, but not for reasons of Disability or death, within one year following a Change of Control and Executive has provided notice to the Company of such good reason within ninety (90) days of its initial occurrence and the Company has
had at least thirty (30) days thereafter to cure the good reason event and has failed to do so, he shall be entitled to receive a cash payment in one lump sum, payable within 15 days of such termination or such longer period of time that
Executive has to make effective the release required by Section 5.2 (e) of this Agreement (the “Section 5.2 Payment Date”), equal to three times his average total annual cash compensation, including base salary and bonus, of the
prior three years. The average of the prior three years (“Average”) shall be computed by dividing by three the sum of all cash compensation he received from the Company during the three years prior to the termination. Section 4.2
(a) shall not have any application in the event of a termination covered by this Section 5.2(a). 

  
 4. 

 (b) In the event of Executive’s termination of employment hereunder either by
the Company without cause, or by Executive for good reason, but not for reasons of Disability or death, within one year following a Change of Control and Executive has provided notice to the Company of such good reason within ninety (90) days
of its initial occurrence and the Company has had at least thirty (30) days thereafter to cure the good reason event and has failed to do so, Executive shall continue to receive all employment benefits as defined in Sections 2.2 and 2.3
above (excluding 2.3 (e) and 2.3(f)), or their equivalent where benefit plan participation by Executive is not available, for eighteen (18) months following the termination. 

(c) In the event of Executive’s termination of employment hereunder either by the Company without cause, or by Executive for
good reason, but not for reasons of Disability or death, within one year following a Change of Control and Executive has provided notice to the Company of such good reason within ninety (90) days of its initial occurrence and the Company has
had at least thirty (30) days thereafter to cure the good reason event and has failed to do so, the vesting of all shares of Company stock covered by options granted to Executive to purchase such Company shares, shall be accelerated on the
Section 5.2 Payment Date such that all unvested such shares shall become vested as of such date. 
 (d) For purposes
of this Agreement, termination of Executive’s employment shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and Section 1.409A-1(h) of the regulations promulgated under the Code or any

 5. 

 7. ARBITRATION. To ensure rapid and economical resolution of any and all disputes which
may arise under this Agreement, the Company and Executive each agree that any and all disputes or controversies, whether of law or fact of any nature whatsoever (including, but not limited to, all state and federal statutory and discrimination
claims), arising from or regarding the interpretation, performance, enforcement or breach of this Agreement shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration under the procedures set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement and the then existing
Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services Rules of Practice and Procedure (except insofar as they are inconsistent with the procedures set forth in Exhibit A). 
 8. CERTAIN REDUCTIONS IN PAYMENTS OR BENEFITS. Executive and the Company hereby agree as follows: 
 8.1 Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any payment, distribution or other benefit provided by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid
or payable or provided or to be provided pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise) (“Payments”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but
for this Section 8, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then, in accordance with this Section 8, such Payments shall be reduced to the maximum amount that would result in no
portion of the payments being subject to the Excise Tax, but only if and to the extent that such a reduction would result in Executive’s receipt of Payments that are greater than the net amount Executive would receive (after application of the
Excise Tax) if no reduction is made. The amount of required reduction, if any, shall be the smallest amount so that Executive’s net proceeds with respect to the Payments (after taking into account payment of any Excise Tax and all federal,
state and local income, employment or other taxes) shall be maximized. If, notwithstanding any reduction described in this Section 8 (or in the absence of any such reduction), the IRS determines that a Payment is subject to the Excise Tax (or
subject to a different amount of the Excise Tax than determined by the Company or Executive), then Section 8.3 shall apply. If the Excise Tax is not eliminated pursuant to this Section 8, Executive shall pay the Excise Tax. 

8.2 All determinations required to be made under this Section 8 shall be made by the Company’s independent auditors. Such
auditors shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and Executive. Any such determination by the Company’s independent auditors shall be binding upon the Company and Executive. The Payments, including without limitation
any option acceleration benefits provided under this Agreement or otherwise (“Option Benefits”), shall be eliminated or reduced consistent with the requirements of this Section 8, first by eliminating or reducing cash payments and
then by eliminating or reducing the number of Company shares or options that vest. Within five business days following a determination pursuant to this Section 8.2, the Company shall pay to or distribute to or for the benefit of Executive such
amounts as are then due to Executive under this Agreement. 
 8.3 As a result of the uncertainty in the application of
Section 280G of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Company’s independent auditors hereunder, it is possible that Option Benefits or other Payments, as the case may be, will have been made by the Company which should
not have been made (“Overpayment”) or that additional Option Benefits or other Payments, as the case may be, which will not have been made by the Company could have been made (“Underpayment”), in each case, consistent with the
calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that the Company’s independent auditors, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the IRS against Executive or the Company which the Company’s independent auditors believe

  
 6. 

 
has a high probability of success, determine that an Overpayment has been made, any such Overpayment paid or distributed by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive shall be repaid to the
Company; provided, however, that no amount shall be payable by Executive to the Company if and to the extent such payment would not either reduce the amount on which Executive is subject to tax under Section 1 and Section 4999 of
the Code or generate a refund of such taxes. In the event that the Company’s independent auditors, based upon controlling precedent or other substantial authority, determine that an Underpayment has occurred, any such Underpayment shall be
promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive. 
 9. CERTAIN DEFERRAL OF PAYMENTS. Notwithstanding the other
provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that any amounts payable to Executive pursuant to this Agreement would not be deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes on account of the limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code, the
Company may defer payment of such amounts to the earliest subsequent calendar year in which the Company reasonably anticipates that payment of such amounts would be deductible by the Company in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and
Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(i) of the regulations thereunder. 
 10. TERM. The term of this Agreement is from the date hereof until
July 31, 2015. 
 11. GENERAL. 
 11.1 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement sets forth the complete, final and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between Executive and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof.
This Agreement is entered into without reliance upon any promise, warranty or representation, written or oral, other than those expressly contained herein, and it supersedes any other such promises, warranties, representations or agreements.

 11.2 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
excessively broad as to duration, activity or subject, it shall be deemed to extend only over the maximum duration, activity and/or subject as to which such provision shall be valid and enforceable under applicable law. If any provisions shall, for
any reason, be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this agreement, but this agreement shall be construed as if
such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 
 11.3 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This
Agreement shall bind the heirs, personal representatives, assigns, executors and administrators of each party, and inure to the benefit of each party, its heirs, successors and assigns. However, because of the unique and personal nature of
Executive’s duties under this Agreement, Executive agrees not to delegate the performance of his duties under this Agreement without the prior consent of the Board. 
 11.4 APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement shall be deemed to have been entered into and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the state of California as applied to contracts made and to be
performed entirely within California. 
 11.5 HEADINGS. The section headings contained herein are for reference purposes
only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 

  
 7. 

 11.6 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in two counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 Exhibit A 
 ARBITRATION PROCEDURE 
 1. The parties agree that any dispute that arises in connection
with this Agreement or the termination of this Agreement shall be resolved by binding arbitration in the manner described below. 
 2. A
party intending to seek resolution of any dispute under the Agreement by arbitration shall provide a written demand for arbitration to the other party, which demand shall contain a brief statement of the issues to be resolved. 

3. The arbitration shall be conducted by a mutually acceptable retired judge from the panel of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc.
(“JAMS”). At the request of either party, arbitration proceedings will be conducted in the utmost secrecy and, in such case, all documents, testimony and records shall be received, heard and maintained by the arbitrator in secrecy under
seal, available for inspection only by the parties to the arbitration, their respective attorneys, and their respective expert consultants or witnesses who shall agree, in advance and in writing, to receive all such information confidentially and to
maintain such information in secrecy, and make no use of such information except for the purposes of arbitration, unless compelled by legal process. 
 4. The arbitrator is required to disclose any circumstances that might preclude the arbitrator from rendering an objective and impartial determination. In the event the parties cannot mutually
agree upon the selection of a JAMS arbitrator, the President and vice president of JAMS shall designate the arbitrator. 
 5. The party
demanding arbitration shall promptly request that JAMS conduct a scheduling conference within 15 days of the date of that party’s written demand for arbitration or on the first available date thereafter on the arbitrator’s calendar. The
arbitration hearing shall be held within 30 available date thereafter on the arbitrator’s calendar. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a party from seeking temporary equitable relief at any time, from JAMS or any court of competent
jurisdiction, to prevent irreparable harm pending the resolution of the arbitration. 
 6. Discovery shall be conducted as follows:
(a) prior to the arbitration any party may make a written demands for lists of the witnesses to be called and the documents to be introduced at the hearing; (b) the lists must be served within 15 days of the date of receipt of the demand,
or one day prior to the arbitration, whichever is earlier; and (c) each party may take no more than two depositions (pursuant to the procedure set forth in the California Code of Civil Procedure) with a maximum of five hours of examination time
per deposition, and no other form of pre-arbitration discovery shall be permitted. 
  

	 	7.	It is the intent of the parties that the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) shall apply to the enforcement of this provision unless it is held inapplicable by a
court with jurisdiction over the dispute, in which event the California Arbitration Act (“CAA”) shall apply. 

  

	 	8.	The arbitrator shall apply California law, including the California Evidence Code, and shall be able to decree any and all relief of an equitable nature, including but
not limited to such relief as a temporary restraining order, a preliminary injunction, a permanent injunction, or replevin of Company property. The arbitrator shall also be able to award actual, general or consequential damages, but shall not award
any other form of damage (e.g., punitive damages). 

	 	9.	Each party shall pay its pro rata share of the arbitrator’s fees and expenses, in addition to other expenses of the arbitration approved by the arbitrator, pending
the resolution of the arbitration. The arbitrator shall have authority to award the payment of such fees and expenses to the prevailing party, as appropriate in the discretion of the arbitrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the
cost to Executive exceed the cost in a court of law or equity. Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees, witness fees and other expenses incurred for its own benefit. 

 

	 	10.	The arbitrator shall render a written award setting forth the reasons for his or her decision. The decree or judgment of an award by the arbitrator may be entered and
enforced in any court having jurisdiction over the parties. The award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties without appeal or review except as permitted by the FAA, or if the FAA is not applicable, as permitted by the CAA.
