 Exhibit 10.1 

NORCRAFT COMPANIES, INC. 

2013 INCENTIVE PLAN 
  

	1.	 	DEFINED TERMS 

 Exhibit A, which is incorporated by reference, defines the terms
used in the Plan and sets forth certain operational rules related to those terms. 
  

	2.	 	PURPOSE 

 The Plan has been established to advance the interests of the Company by
providing for the grant to Participants of Stock-based and other incentive Awards. 
  

	3.	 	ADMINISTRATION 

 The Administrator has discretionary authority, subject only to the
express provisions of the Plan, to interpret the Plan; determine eligibility for and grant Awards; determine, modify or waive the terms and conditions of any Award; prescribe forms, rules and procedures relating to the Plan; and otherwise do all
things necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of the Plan. Any reference in the Plan or in any Award to a determination or action by the Administrator, or to the power or ability of the Administrator to make any determination or to take
any action, shall be construed as permitting the Administrator to make any such determination or to take any such action in its sole and absolute discretion. Determinations of the Administrator made under the Plan will be conclusive and will bind
all parties. 
  

	4.	 	LIMITS ON AWARDS UNDER THE PLAN 

 (a) Number of Shares. The maximum number
of shares of Stock that may be delivered in satisfaction of Awards under the Plan is [number of shares equal to 10% of the outstanding stock]. Up to the total number of shares available for awards to employee Participants may be issued in
satisfaction of ISOs, but nothing in this Section 4(a) will be construed as requiring that any, or any fixed number of, ISOs be awarded under the Plan. For purposes of this Section 4(a), the number of shares of Stock delivered in
satisfaction of Awards will be determined (i) net of shares of Stock underlying the portion of any Award that is settled in cash or the portion of any Award that expires, terminates or is forfeited prior to the issuance of Stock thereunder, and
(ii) by treating as having been delivered the full number of shares covered by any portion of an SAR that is settled in Stock (and not only the number of shares of Stock delivered in settlement) and shares of Stock withheld by the Company in
payment of the exercise price of the Award or in satisfaction of tax withholding requirements with respect to the Award. 
 (b) Type
of Shares. Stock delivered by the Company under the Plan may be authorized but unissued Stock or previously issued Stock acquired by the Company.  

(c) Section 162(m) Limits. The following additional limits will apply to Awards of the specified type granted, or in the
case of Cash Awards, payable to any person in any calendar year: 

 (1) Stock Options: [number of shares equal to 2% of the outstanding] shares of Stock. 

(2) SARs: [number of shares equal to 2% of the outstanding] shares of Stock. 

(3) Awards other than Stock Options, SARs or Cash Awards: [number of shares equal to 2% of the outstanding] shares of Stock. 

(4) Cash Awards: $[2,000,000]. 

In applying the foregoing limits, (i) all Awards of the specified type granted to the same person in the same calendar year will be
aggregated and made subject to one limit; (ii) the limits applicable to Stock Options and SARs refer to the number of shares of Stock subject to those Awards; (iii) the share limit under clause (3) refers to the maximum number of
shares of Stock that may be delivered, or the value of which could be paid in cash or other property, under an Award or Awards of the type specified in clause (3) assuming a maximum payout; and (iv) the dollar limit under clause
(4) refers to the maximum dollar amount payable under an Award or Awards of the type specified in clause (4) assuming a maximum payout. The foregoing provisions will be construed in a manner consistent with Section 162(m), including,
without limitation, where applicable, the rules under Section 162(m) pertaining to permissible deferrals of exempt awards. 
  

	5.	 	ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION 

 The Administrator will select Participants from among key
Employees and directors of, and consultants and advisors to, the Company and its Affiliates who in the determination of the Administrator are in a position to contribute to the success of the Company and its Affiliates. Eligibility for ISOs is
limited to individuals described in the first sentence of this Section 5 who are employees of the Company or of a “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” of the Company as those terms are defined in Section 424
of the Code. Eligibility for Stock Options other than ISOs is limited to individuals described in the first sentence of this Section 5 who are providing direct services on the date of grant of the Stock Option to the Company or to a subsidiary
of the Company that would be described in the first sentence of Treas. Regs. §1.409A-1(b)(5)(iii)(E). 
  

	6.	 	RULES APPLICABLE TO AWARDS 

 (a) All Awards. 

(1) Award Provisions. The Administrator will determine the terms of all Awards, subject to the limitations provided herein. By
accepting (or, under such rules as the Administrator may prescribe, being deemed to have accepted) an Award, the Participant will be deemed to have agreed to the terms of the Award and the Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the
contrary, awards of an acquired company that are converted, replaced or adjusted in connection with the acquisition may contain terms and conditions that are inconsistent with the terms and conditions specified herein, as determined by the
Administrator. 

  
 2 

 (2) Term of Plan. No Awards may be made after ten years from the Date of Adoption,
but previously granted Awards may continue beyond that date in accordance with their terms. 
 (3) Transferability. Neither
ISOs nor, except as the Administrator otherwise expressly provides in accordance with the third sentence of this Section 6(a)(3), other Awards may be transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. During a
Participant’s lifetime, ISOs (and, except as the Administrator otherwise expressly provides in accordance with the third sentence of this Section 6(a)(3), SARs and NSOs) may be exercised only by the Participant. The Administrator may
permit the gratuitous transfer (i.e., transfer not for value) of Awards other than ISOs, subject to such limitations as the Administrator may impose. 

(4) Vesting, etc. The Administrator will determine the time or times at which an Award will vest or become exercisable and the
terms on which a Stock Option or SAR will remain exercisable. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrator may at any time accelerate the vesting or exercisability of an Award, regardless of any adverse or potentially adverse tax or other
consequences resulting from such acceleration. Unless the Administrator expressly provides otherwise, however, the following rules will apply if a Participant’s Employment ceases: 

(A) Immediately upon the cessation of the Participant’s Employment and except as provided in (B) and
(C) below, each Stock Option and SAR that is then held by the Participant or by the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, will cease to be exercisable and will terminate and all other Awards that are then held by the Participant or
by the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, to the extent not already vested will be forfeited. 
 (B)
Subject to (C) and (D) below, all Stock Options and SARs held by the Participant or the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the cessation of the Participant’s Employment, to the extent then
exercisable, will remain exercisable for the lesser of (i) a period of forty-five (45) days or (ii) the period ending on the latest date on which such Stock Option or SAR could have been exercised without regard to this
Section 6(a)(4), and will thereupon immediately terminate. 
 (C) All Stock Options and SARs held by a
Participant or the Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the cessation of the Participant’s employment due to his or her death or Disability, to the extent then exercisable, will remain exercisable for the
lesser of (i) twelve (12) months or (ii) the period ending on the latest date on which such Stock Option or SAR could have been exercised without regard to this Section 6(a)(4), and will thereupon immediately terminate. 

(D) For the avoidance of doubt, all Stock Options and SARs (whether or not exercisable) held by a Participant or the
Participant’s permitted transferees, if any, immediately prior to the cessation of the Participant’s Employment will immediately terminate upon such cessation of Employment if the termination is for Cause or occurs in circumstances that in
the sole determination of the Administrator would have constituted grounds for the Participant’s Employment to be terminated for Cause. 

  
 3 

 (5) Additional Restrictions. The Administrator may cancel, rescind, withhold or
otherwise limit or restrict any Award at any time if the Participant is not in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Award agreement and the Plan, or if the Participant breaches any agreement with the Company or its Affiliates with
respect to non-competition, non-solicitation or confidentiality. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator may recover Awards made under the Plan and payments under or gain in respect of any Award to the extent required to
comply with Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any stock exchange or similar rule adopted under said Section. 

(6) Taxes. The delivery, vesting and retention of Stock, cash or other property under an Award are conditioned upon full satisfaction
by the Participant of all tax withholding requirements with respect to the Award. The Administrator will prescribe such rules for the withholding of taxes as it deems necessary. The Administrator may, but need not, hold back shares of Stock from an
Award or permit a Participant to tender previously owned shares of Stock in satisfaction of tax withholding requirements (but not in excess of the minimum withholding required by law). 

(7) Dividend Equivalents, Etc. The Administrator may provide for the payment of amounts (on terms and subject to conditions established
by the Administrator) in lieu of cash dividends or other cash distributions with respect to Stock subject to an Award whether or not the holder of such Award is otherwise entitled to share in the actual dividend or distribution in respect of such
Award. Any entitlement to dividend equivalents or similar entitlements will be established and administered either consistent with an exemption from, or in compliance with, the requirements of Section 409A. Dividends or dividend equivalent
amounts payable in respect of Awards that are subject to restrictions may be subject to such limits or restrictions as the Administrator may impose. 

(8) Rights Limited. Nothing in the Plan will be construed as giving any person the right to continued employment or service with the
Company or its Affiliates, or any rights as a stockholder except as to shares of Stock actually issued under the Plan. The loss of existing or potential profit in Awards will not constitute an element of damages in the event of termination of
Employment for any reason, even if the termination is in violation of an obligation of the Company or any Affiliate to the Participant. 

(9) Section 162(m). In the case of any Performance Award (other than a Stock Option or SAR) intended to qualify for the
performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), the Administrator will establish the applicable Performance Criterion or Criteria in writing no later than ninety (90) days after the commencement of the period of service to
which the performance relates (or at such earlier time as is required to qualify the Award as performance-based under Section 162(m)) and, prior to the event or occurrence (grant, vesting or payment, as the case may be) that is conditioned on
the attainment of such Performance Criterion or Criteria, will certify whether it or they have been attained. The preceding sentence will not apply to an Award eligible (as determined by the Administrator) for exemption from the limitations of
Section 162(m) by reason of the post-initial public offering transition relief in Section 1.162-27(f) of the Treasury Regulations. 

  
 4 

 (10) Coordination with Other Plans. Awards under the Plan may be granted in tandem
with, or in satisfaction of or substitution for, other Awards under the Plan or awards made under other compensatory plans or programs of the Company or its Affiliates. For example, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, awards under
other compensatory plans or programs of the Company or its Affiliates may be settled in Stock (including, without limitation, Unrestricted Stock) if the Administrator so determines, in which case the shares delivered will be treated as awarded under
the Plan (and will reduce the number of shares thereafter available under the Plan in accordance with the rules set forth in Section 4). In any case where an award is made under another plan or program of the Company or its Affiliates and such
award is intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m), and such award is settled by the delivery of Stock or another Award under the Plan, the applicable Section 162(m) limitations under both
the other plan or program and under the Plan will be applied to the Plan as necessary (as determined by the Administrator) to preserve the availability of the Section 162(m) performance-based compensation exception with respect thereto. 

(11) Section 409A. Each Award will contain such terms as the Administrator determines, and will be construed and
administered, such that the Award either qualifies for an exemption from the requirements of Section 409A or satisfies such requirements. 

(12) Fair Market Value. In determining the fair market value of any share of Stock under the Plan, the Administrator will make
the determination in good faith consistent with the rules of Section 422 and Section 409A to the extent applicable. 
 (b)
Stock Options and SARs. 
 (1) Time And Manner Of Exercise. Unless the Administrator expressly provides otherwise,
no Stock Option or SAR will be deemed to have been exercised until the Administrator receives a notice of exercise (in form acceptable to the Administrator), which may be an electronic notice, signed (including electronic signature in form
acceptable to the Administrator) by the appropriate person and accompanied by any payment required under the Award. A Stock Option or SAR exercised by any person other than the Participant will not be deemed to have been exercised until the
Administrator has received such evidence as it may require that the person exercising the Award has the right to do so. 
 (2)
Exercise Price. The exercise price (or the base value from which appreciation is to be measured) of each Award requiring exercise will be no less than 100% (or in the case of an ISO granted to a ten-percent shareholder within the meaning
of subsection (b)(6) of Section 422, 110%) of the fair market value of the Stock subject to the Award, determined as of the date of grant, or such higher amount as the Administrator may determine in connection with the grant. Fair market value
will be determined by the Administrator consistent with the applicable requirements of Section 422 and Section 409A. 

  
 5 

 (3) Payment Of Exercise Price. Where the exercise of an Award is to be accompanied
by payment, payment of the exercise price will be by cash or check acceptable to the Administrator or by such other legally permissible means, if any, as may be acceptable to the Administrator. 

(4) Maximum Term. Stock Options and SARs will have a maximum term not to exceed ten (10) years from the date of grant (five
(5) years from the date of grant in the case of an ISO granted to a ten-percent shareholder described in Section 6(b)(2) above); provided, however, that, if a Participant still holding an outstanding but unexercised NSO or SAR ten
(10) years from the date of grant (or, in the case of an NSO or SAR with a maximum term of less than ten (10) years, such maximum term) is prohibited by applicable law or a written policy of the Company applicable to similarly situated
employees from engaging in any open-market sales of Stock, and if at such time the Stock is publicly traded (as determined by the Administrator), the maximum term of such Award will instead be deemed to expire on the thirtieth (30th) day following the date the Participant is no longer prohibited from engaging in such open market sales. 

(5) Special Provisions Applicable to Stock Options and SARs. No Stock Option or SAR, once granted, may be repriced other than
with stockholder approval, and, except upon exercise as hereinabove provided and except as provided in Section 7, no payment shall be made in respect of any Stock Option or SAR in connection with its cancellation. 

 

	7.	EFFECT OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS 

 (a) Mergers,
etc. Except as otherwise provided in an Award agreement, the following provisions will apply in the event of a Covered Transaction: 

(1) Assumption or Substitution. If the Covered Transaction is one in which there is an acquiring or surviving entity, the
Administrator may (but, for the avoidance of doubt, need not) provide (i) for the assumption or continuation of some or all outstanding Awards or any portion thereof or (ii) for the grant of new awards in substitution therefor by the
acquiror or survivor or an affiliate of the acquiror or survivor. 
 (2) Cash-Out of Awards. Subject to Section 7(a)(5)
below the Administrator may (but, for the avoidance of doubt, need not) provide for payment (a “cash-out”), with respect to some or all Awards or any portion thereof, equal in the case of each affected Award or portion thereof to the
excess, if any, of (A) the fair market value of one share of Stock (as determined by the Administrator) times the number of shares of Stock subject to the Award or such portion, over (B) the aggregate exercise or purchase price, if any,
under the Award or such portion (in the case of an SAR, the aggregate base value above which appreciation is measured), in each case on such payment terms (which need not be the same as the terms of payment to holders of Stock) and other terms, and
subject to such conditions, as the Administrator determines, it being understood that if the exercise or purchase price (or base value) of an Award is equal to or greater than the fair market value of one share of Stock (as determined by the
Administrator), the Award may be cancelled with no payment due hereunder. 

  
 6 

 (3) Acceleration of Certain Awards. Subject to Section 7(a)(5) below, the
Administrator may (but, for the avoidance of doubt, need not) provide that any Award requiring exercise will become exercisable, in full or in part and/or that the delivery of any shares of Stock remaining deliverable under any outstanding Award of
Stock Units (including Restricted Stock Units and Performance Awards to the extent consisting of Stock Units) will be accelerated in full or in part, in each case on a basis that gives the holder of the Award a reasonable opportunity, as determined
by the Administrator, following exercise of the Award or the delivery of the shares, as the case may be, to participate as a stockholder in the Covered Transaction. 

(4) Termination of Awards Upon Consummation of Covered Transaction. Except as the Administrator may otherwise determine in any
case, each Award will automatically terminate (and in the case of outstanding shares of Restricted Stock, will automatically be forfeited) upon consummation of the Covered Transaction, other than Awards assumed pursuant to Section 7(a)(1)
above. 
 (5) Additional Limitations. Any share of Stock and any cash or other property delivered pursuant to
Section 7(a)(2) or Section 7(a)(3) above with respect to an Award may, if the Administrator so determines, contain such restrictions, if any, as the Administrator determines to be appropriate to reflect any performance or other vesting
conditions to which the Award was subject and that did not lapse (and were not satisfied) in connection with the Covered Transaction. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, a cash-out under Section 7(a)(2) above or acceleration
under Section 7(a)(3) above will not, in and of itself, be treated as the lapsing (or satisfaction) of a performance or other vesting condition. In the case of Restricted Stock that does not vest and is not forfeited in connection with the
Covered Transaction, the Administrator may require that any amounts delivered, exchanged or otherwise paid in respect of such Stock in connection with the Covered Transaction be placed in escrow or otherwise made subject to such restrictions as the
Administrator determines to be appropriate to carry out the intent of the Plan. 
 (b) Changes in and Distributions With Respect to
Stock. 
 (1) Basic Adjustment Provisions. In the event of a stock dividend, stock split or combination of shares
(including a reverse stock split), recapitalization or other change in the Company’s capital structure that constitutes an equity restructuring within the meaning of FASB ASC 718, the Administrator will make appropriate adjustments to the
maximum number of shares specified in Section 4(a) that may be delivered under the Plan and to the maximum share limits described in Section 4(c), and will also make appropriate adjustments to the number and kind of shares of stock or
securities subject to Awards then outstanding or subsequently granted, any exercise or purchase prices (or base values) relating to Awards and any other provision of Awards affected by such change. 

(2) Certain Other Adjustments. The Administrator may also make adjustments of the type described in Section 7(b)(1) above
to take into account distributions to stockholders other than those provided for in Section 7(a) and 7(b)(1), or any other event, if the Administrator determines that adjustments are appropriate to avoid distortion in the operation of the Plan,
having due regard for the qualification of ISOs under Section 422, the requirements of Section 409A, and for the performance-based compensation rules of Section 162(m), where applicable. 

  
 7 

 (3) Continuing Application of Plan Terms. References in the Plan to shares of Stock
will be construed to include any stock or securities resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 7. 
  

	8.	LEGAL CONDITIONS ON DELIVERY OF STOCK 

 The Company will not be obligated to deliver any
shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan or to remove any restriction from shares of Stock previously delivered under the Plan until: (i) the Company is satisfied that all legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of such shares
have been addressed and resolved; (ii) if the outstanding Stock is at the time of delivery listed on any stock exchange or national market system, the shares to be delivered have been listed or authorized to be listed on such exchange or system
upon official notice of issuance; and (iii) all conditions of the Award have been satisfied or waived. The Company may require, as a condition to exercise of the Award, such representations or agreements as counsel for the Company may consider
appropriate to avoid violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any applicable state or non-U.S. securities law. Any Stock required to be issued to Participants under the Plan will be evidenced in such manner as the Administrator may
deem appropriate, including book-entry registration or delivery of stock certificates. In the event that the Administrator determines that Stock certificates will be issued to Participants under the Plan, the Administrator may require that
certificates evidencing Stock issued under the Plan bear an appropriate legend reflecting any restriction on transfer applicable to such Stock, and the Company may hold the certificates pending lapse of the applicable restrictions. 

 

	9.	AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 

 The Administrator may at any time or times amend the Plan or
any outstanding Award for any purpose which may at the time be permitted by law, and may at any time terminate the Plan as to any future grants of Awards; provided, that, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, the Administrator may not,
without the Participant’s consent, alter the terms of an Award so as to affect materially and adversely the Participant’s rights under the Award, unless the Administrator expressly reserved the right to do so at the time the Award was
granted. Any amendments to the Plan will be conditioned upon stockholder approval only to the extent, if any, such approval is required by law (including the Code and applicable stock exchange requirements), as determined by the Administrator. 

 

	10.	OTHER COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS 

 The existence of the Plan or the grant of any Award
will not in any way affect the Company’s right to Award a person bonuses or other compensation in addition to Awards under the Plan. 
  

	11.	MISCELLANEOUS 

 (a) Waiver of Jury Trial. By accepting an Award under the
Plan, each Participant waives any right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim concerning any  

  
 8 

 
rights under the Plan and any Award, or under any amendment, waiver, consent, instrument, document or other agreement delivered or which in the future may be delivered in connection therewith,
and agrees that any such action, proceedings or counterclaim will be tried before a court and not before a jury. By accepting an Award under the Plan, each Participant certifies that no officer, representative, or attorney of the Company has
represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Company would not, in the event of any action, proceeding or counterclaim, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, nothing herein is to be construed
as limiting the ability of the Company and a Participant to agree to submit disputes arising under the terms of the Plan or any Award made hereunder to binding arbitration or as limiting the ability of the Company to require any eligible individual
to agree to submit such disputes to binding arbitration as a condition of receiving an Award hereunder. 
 (b) Limitation of
Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, neither the Company, nor any Affiliate, nor the Administrator, nor any person acting on behalf of the Company, any Affiliate, or the Administrator, will be liable to any
Participant or to the estate or beneficiary of any Participant or to any other holder of an Award by reason of any acceleration of income, or any additional tax (including any interest and penalties), asserted by reason of the failure of an Award to
satisfy the requirements of Section 422 or Section 409A or by reason of Section 4999 of the Code, or otherwise asserted with respect to the Award; provided, that nothing in this Section 11(b) will limit the ability of the
Administrator or the Company, in its discretion, to provide by separate express written agreement with a Participant for any payment in connection with any such acceleration of income or additional tax. 

 

	12.	ESTABLISHMENT OF SUB-PLANS 

 The Administrator may from time to time establish one or
more sub-plans under the Plan for purposes of satisfying applicable blue sky, securities or tax laws of various jurisdictions. The Administrator will establish such sub-plans by adopting supplements to the Plan setting forth (i) such
limitations as the Administrator determines to be necessary or desirable and (ii) such additional terms and conditions not otherwise inconsistent with the Plan as it deems necessary or desirable. All supplements so established will be deemed to
be part of the Plan, but each supplement will apply only to Participants within the affected jurisdiction (as determined by the Administrator). 
  

	13.	GOVERNING LAW 

 (a) Certain Requirements of Corporate Law. Awards will be
granted and administered consistent with the requirements of applicable Delaware law relating to the issuance of stock and the consideration to be received therefor, and with the applicable requirements of the stock exchanges or other trading
systems on which the Stock is listed or entered for trading, in each case as determined by the Administrator. 
 (b) Other
Matters. Except as otherwise provided by the express terms of an Award agreement, under a sub-plan described in Section 12 or as provided in Section 13(a) above, the provisions of the Plan and of Awards under the Plan and all
claims or disputes arising out of our based upon the Plan or any Award under the Plan or relating to the subject matter hereof or thereof will be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic substantive laws of the State of Delaware
without giving effect to any choice or conflict of laws provision or rule that would cause the application of the domestic substantive laws of any other jurisdiction. 

  
 9 

 (c) Jurisdiction. By accepting an Award, each Participant will be deemed to
(a) have submitted irrevocably and unconditionally to the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located within the geographic boundaries of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware for the purpose of any suit, action
or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the Plan or any Award; (b) agree not to commence any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the Plan or an Award, except in the federal and state courts located within the
geographic boundaries of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware; and (c) waive, and agree not to assert, by way of motion as a defense or otherwise, in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not subject
personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is
improper or that the Plan or an Award or the subject matter thereof may not be enforced in or by such court.

 EXHIBIT A 

Definition of Terms 

The following terms, when used in the Plan, will have the meanings and be subject to the provisions set forth below: 

“Administrator”: The Compensation Committee, except that the Compensation Committee may delegate (i) to one or more of
its members (or one or more other members of the Board (including the full Board)) such of its duties, powers and responsibilities as it may determine; (ii) to one or more officers of the Company the power to grant Awards to the extent
permitted by Section 157(c) of the Delaware General Corporation Law; and (iii) to such Employees or other persons as it determines such ministerial tasks as it deems appropriate. In the event of any delegation described in the preceding
sentence, the term “Administrator” will include the person or persons so delegated to the extent of such delegation. 

“Affiliate”: Any corporation or other entity that stands in a relationship to the Company that would result in the Company
and such corporation or other entity being treated as one employer under Section 414(b) and Section 414(c) of the Code. 

“Award”: Any or a combination of the following: 

(i) Stock Options. 

(ii) SARs. 

(iii) Restricted Stock. 

(iv) Unrestricted Stock. 

(v) Stock Units, including Restricted Stock Units.

on Stock. 
 “Board”: The Board of Directors of the Company. 

“Cash Award”: An Award denominated in cash. 

“Cause”: In the case of any Participant who is party to an employment or severance-benefit agreement that contains a
definition of “Cause,” the definition set forth in such agreement will apply with respect to such Participant under the Plan for so long as such agreement is in effect. In the case of any other Participant, “Cause” will mean, as
determined by the Administrator in its reasonable judgment, (i) a substantial failure of the Participant to perform the Participant’s duties and responsibilities to the Company or subsidiaries or substantial

 
negligence in the performance of such duties and responsibilities; (ii) the commission by the Participant of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; (iii) the commission by the
Participant of theft, fraud, embezzlement, material breach of trust or any material act of dishonesty involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (iv) a significant violation by the Participant of the code of conduct of the Company or its
subsidiaries of any material policy of the Company or its subsidiaries, or of any statutory or common law duty of loyalty to the Company or its subsidiaries; (v) material breach of any of the terms of the Plan or any Award made under the Plan,
or of the terms of any other agreement between the Company or subsidiaries and the Participant; or (vi) other conduct by the Participant that could reasonably be expected to be harmful to the business, interests or reputation of the Company.

 “Code”: The U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as from time to time amended and in effect, or any successor statute as
from time to time in effect. 
 “Compensation Committee”: The Compensation Committee of the Board. 

“Company”: Norcraft Companies, Inc. 

“Covered Transaction”: Any of (i) a consolidation, merger, or similar transaction or series of related transactions,
including a sale or other disposition of stock, in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or which results in the acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company’s then outstanding common stock by a single person or entity or
by a group of persons and/or entities acting in concert, (ii) a sale or transfer of all or substantially all the Company’s assets, or (iii) a dissolution or liquidation of the Company. Where a Covered Transaction involves a tender
offer that is reasonably expected to be followed by a merger described in clause (i) (as determined by the Administrator), the Covered Transaction will be deemed to have occurred upon consummation of the tender offer. 

“Date of Adoption”: The earlier of the date the Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders or adopted by the Board,
as determined by the Compensation Committee. 
 “Disability”: In the case of any Participant who is party to an employment
agreement or similar agreement that contains a definition of permanent or long-term disability, the definition set forth in such agreement will apply with respect to such Participant under the Plan for so long as such agreement is in effect. In the
case of any other Participant, “Disability” will have the meaning assigned to that term in the Company’s [Long Term Disability Plan]. 

“Employee”: Any person who is employed by the Company or an Affiliate. 

“Employment”: A Participant’s employment or other service relationship with the Company and its Affiliates. Employment
will be deemed to continue, unless the Administrator expressly provides otherwise, so long as the Participant is employed by, or otherwise is providing services in a capacity described in Section 5 to the Company or an Affiliate. If a
Participant’s employment or other service relationship is with an Affiliate and that entity ceases to be an Affiliate, the Participant’s Employment will be deemed to have terminated when the entity ceases to be an Affiliate unless the
Participant transfers Employment to the Company or its remaining Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing and the definition of “Affiliate” above, in 

  
 -12- 

 
construing the provisions of any Award relating to the payment of “nonqualified deferred compensation” (subject to Section 409A) upon a termination or cessation of Employment,
references to termination or cessation of employment, separation from service, retirement or similar or correlative terms will be construed to require a “separation from service” (as that term is defined in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the
Treasury Regulations) from the Company and from all other corporations and trades or businesses, if any, that would be treated as a single “service recipient” with the Company under Section 1.409A-1(h)(3) of the Treasury Regulations.

satisfaction of which is a condition for the grant, exercisability, vesting or full enjoyment of an Award. 
 Subject to the special rules

goals or factors as it determines. 
 For purposes of Awards that are intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception
under Section 162(m), a Performance Criterion will mean an objectively determinable measure of performance relating to any or any combination of the following (measured either absolutely or by reference to an index or indices and determined
either on a consolidated basis or, as the context permits, on a divisional, subsidiary, line of business, project or geographical basis or in combinations thereof, and expressed as an absolute goal, percentage of revenue, on a per share basis, or as

under Section 162(m), the Administrator may provide in the case of any Award intended to qualify for such exception that one or more of the Performance Criteria, goals or other factors applicable to such Award will be adjusted in an objectively

directly.

	 	iii.	Without limiting the foregoing, from and after the date of this Agreement, the Buller Norcraft Owners shall, on a proportionate basis based on such Buller Norcraft Owner’s percentage ownership of Buller Norcraft as
of immediately prior to the Buller Owner Contribution, also indemnify and hold harmless the Norcraft Group Indemnitees from and against and in respect of any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or imposed upon or incurred by
any Norcraft Group Indemnitee by reason of (a) the Transfer Taxes described in Section 10.j.i., (b) any Taxes of Buller Norcraft for the Pre-Closing Tax Period, including, for clarity, any Taxes arising out of, relating to, or
imposed upon or incurred by any Norcraft Group Indemnitee as a result of the Buller Norcraft Contribution or the Buller Norcraft and MEB Buller Liquidation, (c) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group
of which Buller Norcraft is or was a member on or prior to the date hereof; and (d) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed on Buller Norcraft for any period as a transferee or successor in respect of a transaction occurring on or before the
date of this Agreement (the “Buller Norcraft Pre-Closing Tax Indemnity”). 

 The amount of any
indemnification obligation by the Buller Norcraft Owners to Norcraft and its Subsidiaries shall be reduced by the amount of any cash on hand in Buller Norcraft as of the Buller Norcraft Owner Contribution and any Tax prepayments or Tax refunds
accrued by Buller Norcraft (and which such refunds are subsequently actually realized as a result of the applicable determination date), in each case as of the date of this Agreement. 

 

	 	iv.	Each Buller Norcraft Owner’s share of (x) the indemnification obligations relating to clauses i. and ii. of this Section 9.d., insofar as they relate to breaches by Buller Norcraft of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, and (y) the Buller Norcraft Pre-Closing Tax Indemnity shall equal such Buller Norcraft Owner’s percentage ownership of Buller Norcraft as of immediately prior to the Buller Owner
Contribution. 

  

	 	v.	 Norcraft shall recover any amounts due to it by any Buller Norcraft Owner pursuant to claims made under this Agreement from any amounts that, as of
the time such claim for indemnification is made or thereafter, are owed but not yet paid by Norcraft under any applicable Tax Receivable Agreement to such Buller Norcraft Owner or any transferee or assignee of the Buller Norcraft Owner’s rights
hereunder (and Norcraft may reduce any such amounts due by, and set-off any such amounts due against, the indemnification amounts), regardless of whether such Buller Norcraft Owner remains a party to such Tax Receivable Agreement (each such right
with respect to a Buller Norcraft Owner, a “Buller Norcraft Set-Off 

  
 24 

	 	
Right”); provided that if the Board determines that the amount of any indemnification claim owed by the Buller Norcraft Owner will exceed the amount reasonably expected to be
payable to the Buller Norcraft Owner (or its assignee or transferee) under the applicable Tax Receivable Agreement and thus available to be subject to the Buller Norcraft Set-Off Right over the 24-month period following the date on which the claim
for indemnification was made, then the Norcraft Group Indemnitee may pursue indemnification against the Buller Norcraft Owners directly. 

  

	 	e.	SKM Norcraft Owners. From and after the date of this Agreement, each SKM Norcraft Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless the other Parties hereto and their respective Affiliates (including in the case of any
Party that is classified as a disregarded entity or partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, its direct and indirect beneficial owners) and Representatives (collectively, the “SKM Norcraft Indemnitees”), from and against
and in respect of any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or imposed upon or incurred by any SKM Norcraft Indemnitee by reason of: 

  

	 	i.	any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty of SKM Norcraft, Norcraft GP or such SKM Norcraft Owner contained in this Agreement (it being understood that for the sole purpose of determining Losses (and
not for purposes of determining whether or not there are any inaccuracies in or breaches of any representation or warranty), the representations and warranties shall not be deemed to be qualified by any references to materiality or material adverse
effect or subsequent supplements); 

  

	 	ii.	any breach by SKM Norcraft, Norcraft GP or such SKM Norcraft Owner of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement; 

  

	 	iii.	Without limiting the foregoing, from and after the date of this Agreement, each SKM Norcraft Owner shall, on a proportionate basis based on such SKM Norcraft Owner’s percentage ownership of SKM Norcraft immediately
prior to the Norcraft Contribution, also indemnify and hold harmless the Norcraft Group Indemnitees from and against and in respect of any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or imposed upon or incurred by any Norcraft Group
Indemnitee by reason of (a) the Transfer Taxes described in Section 10.j.iii., (b) any Taxes of SKM Norcraft for the Pre-Closing Tax Period, including, for clarity, any Taxes arising out of, relating to, or imposed upon or
incurred by any Norcraft Group Indemnitee as a result of the SKM Contribution, (c) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which SKM Norcraft is or was a member on or prior to the consummation of the
Reorganization Transactions, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or foreign law or regulation; and (d) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed on SKM Norcraft for any period
as a transferee or successor in respect of a transaction occurring on or before the date of this Agreement (the “SKM Norcraft Pre-Closing Tax Indemnity”); 

  
 25 

 The amount of any indemnification obligation by the SKM Norcraft Owners to Norcraft and its
Subsidiaries shall be reduced by the amount of any cash on hand in SKM Norcraft as of immediately prior to the Norcraft Contribution and any Tax prepayments or Tax refunds accrued by SKM Norcraft (and which such refunds are subsequently actually
realized as of the applicable determination date), in each case as of immediately prior to the Norcraft Contribution. 
  

	 	iv.	Each SKM Norcraft Owner’s share of (x) the indemnification obligations relating to clauses i. and ii. of this Section 9.e., insofar as they relate to breaches by SKM Norcraft of any representation,
warranty, covenant or agreement and (y) the SKM Norcraft Pre-Closing Tax Indemnity shall equal such SKM Norcraft Owner’s percentage ownership of SKM Norcraft as of immediately prior to the Norcraft Contribution; 

 

	 	v.	Each SKM Norcraft Owner’s share of the indemnification obligations relating to clauses i. and ii. of this Section 9.e., insofar as they relate to breaches by Norcraft GP of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement shall equal such SKM Norcraft Owner’s indirect percentage ownership of Norcraft GP as of immediately prior to the Norcraft GP Purchase; and 

 

	 	vi.	Norcraft shall recover any amounts due to it by any SKM Norcraft Owner pursuant to claims made under this Agreement from any amounts that, as of the time such claim for indemnification is made or thereafter, are owed
but not yet paid by Norcraft under the applicable Tax Receivable Agreement to such SKM Norcraft Owner or any transferee or assignee of the SKM Norcraft Owner’s rights thereunder (and Norcraft may reduce any such amounts due by, and set-off any
such amounts due against, the indemnification amounts), regardless of whether such SKM Norcraft Owner remains a party to such Tax Receivable Agreement (each such right with respect to a SKM Norcraft Owner, a “SKM Norcraft Set-Off
Right”); provided that if the Board determines that the amount of any indemnification claim owed by any SKM Norcraft Owner will exceed the amount reasonably expected to be payable to the SKM Norcraft Owner (or its assignee or
transferee) under the applicable Tax Receivable Agreement and thus available to be subject to the Buller Norcraft Set-Off Right over the 24-month period following the date on which the claim for indemnification was made, then the Norcraft Group
Indemnitee may pursue indemnification against the SKM Norcraft Owner directly. 

  

	 	f.	 Trimaran Cabinet Owners. From and after the consummation of the Reorganization Transactions, each Trimaran Cabinet Owner shall indemnify and
hold harmless the other Parties hereto and their respective Affiliates (including in 

  
 26 

	 	
the case of any Party that is classified as a disregarded entity or partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, its direct and indirect beneficial owners) and Representatives (collectively,
the “Trimaran Cabinet Indemnitees”), from and against and in respect of any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or imposed upon or incurred by any Trimaran Cabinet Indemnitee by reason of: 

 

	 	i.	any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty of Trimaran Cabinet, Norcraft GP or such Trimaran Cabinet Owner contained in this Agreement (it being understood that for the sole purpose of determining
Losses (and not for purposes of determining whether or not there are any inaccuracies in or breaches of any representation or warranty), the representations and warranties shall not be deemed to be qualified by any references to materiality or
material adverse effect or subsequent supplements); and 

  

	 	ii.	any breach by Trimaran Cabinet, Norcraft GP or such Trimaran Cabinet Owner of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement. 

 

	 	iii.	Without limiting the foregoing, from and after the consummation of the Reorganization Transactions, each Trimaran Cabinet Owner shall, on a proportionate basis based on such Trimaran Cabinet Owner’s percentage
ownership of Trimaran Cabinet immediately prior to the Norcraft Contribution, also indemnify and hold harmless the Norcraft Group Indemnitees from and against and in respect of any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or
imposed upon or incurred by any Norcraft Group Indemnitee by reason of (a) the Transfer Taxes described in Section 10.k.iv., (b) any Taxes of Trimaran Cabinet for the Pre-Closing Tax Period, including, for clarity, any Taxes
arising out of, relating to, or imposed upon or incurred by any Norcraft Group Indemnitee as a result of the Trimaran Contribution, (c) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which Trimaran Cabinet
is or was a member on or prior to the date hereof, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local, or foreign law or regulation; and (d) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed on
Trimaran Cabinet for any period as a transferee or successor in respect of a transaction occurring on or before the date of this Agreement (the “Trimaran Cabinet Pre-Closing Tax Indemnity”). 

The amount of any indemnification obligation by the Trimaran Cabinet Owners to Norcraft and its Subsidiaries shall be reduced by the amount of
any cash on hand in Trimaran Cabinet as of immediately prior to the Norcraft Contribution and any Tax prepayments or Tax refunds accrued by Trimaran Cabinet (and which such refunds are subsequently actually realized as of the applicable
determination date), in each case as of immediately prior to the Norcraft Contribution. 

  
 27 

	 	iv.	Each Trimaran Cabinet Owner’s share of the (x) indemnification obligations relating to clauses i. and ii. of Section 9.f. (insofar as they relate to breaches by Trimaran Cabinet of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement) and (y) to the Trimaran Cabinet Pre-Closing Tax Indemnity shall equal such Trimaran Cabinet Owner’s percentage ownership of Trimaran Cabinet as of immediately prior to the Norcraft
Contribution. 

  

	 	v.	Each Trimaran Cabinet Owner’s share of the indemnification obligations relating to clauses i. and ii. of Section 9.f. (insofar as they relate to breaches by Norcraft GP of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement) shall equal such Trimaran Cabinet Owner’s indirect percentage ownership of Norcraft GP, as of immediately prior to the Norcraft GP Purchase. 

 

	 	vi.	Norcraft shall recover any amounts due to it by any Trimaran Cabinet Owner pursuant to claims made under this Agreement from any amounts that, as of the time such claim for indemnification is made or thereafter, are
owed but not yet paid by Norcraft under the applicable Tax Receivable Agreement to such Trimaran Cabinet Owner or any transfere or assignee of the Trimaran Cabinet Owner’s rights thereunder (and Norcraft may reduce any such amounts due by, and
set-off any such amounts due against, the indemnification amounts), regardless of whether such Trimaran Cabinet Owner remains a party to such Tax Receivable Agreement (each such right with respect to a Trimaran Cabinet Owner, a “Trimaran
Cabinet Set-Off Right”); provided that if the Board determines that the amount of any indemnification claim owed by the Trimaran Cabinet Owner will exceed the amount reasonably expected to be payable to the Trimaran Cabinet Owner (or
its assignee or transferee) under the applicable Tax Receivable Agreement and thus available to be subject to the Trimaran Cabinet Set-Off Right over the 24-month period following the date on which the claim for indemnification was made, then the
Norcraft Group Indemnitee may pursue indemnification against the Trimaran Cabinet Owners directly. 

  

	 	g.	Management Parties. From and after the date of this Agreement, each Management Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the other Parties hereto and their respective Affiliates and Representatives (collectively,
the “Management Party Indemnitees”), from and against and in respect of any and all Losses resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or imposed upon or incurred by any Management Party Indemnitee by reason of: 

 

	 	i.	any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty of such Management Party contained in this Agreement (it being understood that for the sole purpose of determining Losses (and not for purposes of
determining whether or not there are any inaccuracies in or breaches of any representation or warranty), the representations and warranties shall not be deemed to be qualified by any references to materiality or material adverse effect or subsequent
supplements); and 

  
 28 

	 	ii.	any breach by such Management Party of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement. 

  

	 	iii.	Norcraft shall recover any amounts due to it by any such Management Party pursuant to claims made under this Agreement from any amounts that, at the time of such claim for indemnification is made or thereafter, are owed
but not yet paid by Norcraft under the applicable Tax Receivable Agreement to such Management Party or any transferee or assignee of such Management Party’s rights thereunder (and Norcraft may reduce any such amounts due by, and set-off any
such amounts due against the indemnification amounts), regardless of whether any Management Party remains a party to such Tax Receivable Agreement (each such right with respect to a Management Party, a “Management Party Set-Off
Right”); provided that if the Board determines that the amount of any indemnification claim owed by any Management Party will exceed the amount reasonably expected to be payable to such Management Party (or its assignee or
transferee) under the applicable Tax Receivable Agreement and thus available to be subject to the Management Party Set-Off Right over the 24-month period following the date on which the claim for indemnification was made, then the Norcraft Group
Indemnitee may pursue indemnification against the Management Party directly. 

  

	 	h.	Exclusivity. No Indemnitee will be precluded from seeking indemnification under any of the preceding subparagraphs of this Section solely by virtue of such Indemnitee’s inability to seek indemnification
under any other subparagraph of this Section 9. 

  

	 	i.	Reductions. The amount of any Losses payable under this Section 9 by an Indemnifying Party (i) will be computed net of any insurance proceeds with respect thereto and (ii) will be reduced by
any recovery from any third Person in respect of the Loss. Further, in no event will a Claiming Party be entitled to recover or make a Claim for any amounts in respect of consequential, incidental or indirect damages, lost profits, diminutions in
value or punitive damages. 

  

	 	j.	Procedures. 

  

	 	i.	 In the event that a Party seeks a recovery in accordance with the terms of this Section 9 (the “Claiming Party”), in
respect of an indemnification claim (the “Claim”), the Claiming Party shall deliver a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Party against which the claim is made (the “Indemnifying Party”). Each
Claim Notice shall, with respect to each Claim set forth therein, (i) specify in reasonable detail and in good faith the nature of the Claim being made and (ii) state the aggregate dollar amount of Losses to which such Claiming Party is
claiming to be entitled 

  
 29 

	 	
to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9 that have been incurred, or a good faith estimate of the aggregate dollar amount of such Losses reasonably expected to be incurred, by
such Claiming Party pursuant to such Claim (the “Claim Amount”). 

  

	 	ii.	If the Indemnifying Party wishes to object to the allowance of some or all Claims made in a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party must deliver a written objection to the Claiming Party within twenty (20) business
days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such Claim Notice expressing such objection and explaining in reasonable detail and in good faith the basis therefor. Following receipt by the Claiming Party of the Indemnifying Party’s written
objection, if any, the Claiming Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly, and within twenty (20) business days, meet to agree on the rights of the respective parties with respect to each Indemnification Claim that is the subject of such
written objection. If the Parties should so agree, (i) a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and executed by the Claiming Party and the Indemnifying Party, and (ii) with respect to any Claim, as promptly as
practicable and within five (5) business days following execution of such memorandum, subject to this Section 9.j. and the indemnification limitations described elsewhere in this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the
Claiming Party in cash the aggregate dollar amount of Losses payable to such Claiming Party. In the event that the Indemnifying and Claiming Parties do not prepare and sign such a memorandum or such memorandum does not address in full the written
objections timely delivered, within twenty (20) business days of receipt by the Claiming Party from the Indemnifying Party of the written objection, then the Claiming Party may resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 11.f.
(Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.). In no event shall failure to respond to a Claim Notice result in a loss of the Indemnifying Party’s rights hereunder. 

 

	 	iii.	If the Claiming Party does not receive a response from the Indemnifying Party with respect to any Claim set forth in a Claim Notice by the end of the twenty (20) business day period referred to in
Section 9.j.ii. above, then the Claiming Party may resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 11.f. (Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.). 

 

	 	iv.	Any amount payable by the Indemnifying Party to the Claiming Party pursuant to Section 9.j.i. or Section 9.j.ii. above shall be paid promptly (but in no event later than five (5) business
days after the applicable payment obligation accrues) by the Indemnifying Party by wire transfer of dollars in immediately available funds to such account or accounts as may be designated in writing by the Claiming Party. 

  
 30 

	 	v.	The following provisions (and not the foregoing provisions in clauses i. through iv. of this Section 9.j.) shall apply to Third Party Claims: 

 

	 	(1)	If a Claiming Party receives notice of any action, suit, proceeding, audit, investigation, claim or examination which may give rise to a Loss involving any claim of a third party (including any federal, state, municipal
or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality) (such claim by a third party, a “Third Party Claim”), that may reasonably be expected to result in a claim for indemnification by the Claiming
Party against the Indemnifying Party, such Party shall deliver a Claim Notice within thirty (30) calendar days of such receipt to the Indemnifying Party; provided that no delay by the Claiming Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party will
relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder, unless the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by the Claiming Party’s failure to timely provide such notice. 

 

	 	(2)	The Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim that is the subject of a notice given by the Claiming Party. In addition, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to
defend the Claiming Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Claiming Party so long as (A) the Indemnifying Party gives written notice to the Claiming Party within fifteen (15) calendar
days after the Claiming Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Claiming Party from and against the entirety of any and all Losses the Claiming Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of,
relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, (B) the Indemnifying Party provides the Claiming Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Claiming Party that the Indemnifying Party will have adequate financial
resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (C) the Third Party Claim does not involve an issue relating to Taxes for a period other than a Pre-Closing Tax Period, and (D) the
Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently. If the Indemnifying Party does defend against the Third Party Claim, the Claiming Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and
participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will pay the fees and expenses of separate co-counsel retained by the Claiming Party that are incurred prior to the Indemnifying
Party’s assumption of control of the defense of the Third Party Claim. 

  

	 	(3)	The Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Claiming Party, which shall
not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld, or delayed. 

  
 31 

	 	(4)	If the Indemnifying Party does not deliver the notice contemplated by clause (2)(A) of this Section 9.j.v.(4), or the evidence contemplated by clause (2)(B), within fifteen (15) days after the
Claiming Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim, or otherwise at any time fails to conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently, the Claiming Party may defend against (and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to
participate in the defense of) the Third Party Claim, but the Claiming Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the
Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If such notice and evidence is given on a timely basis and the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently but any of
the other conditions in clause (1) of this Section 9.j.v.(4) is or becomes unsatisfied, the Claiming Party may defend against the Third Party Claim, but the Claiming Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into
any compromise or settlement with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Claiming Party conducts the defense of the Third
Party Claim pursuant to this Section 9.j.v.(4), the Indemnifying Party shall remain responsible for any and all other Losses that the Claiming Party may incur or suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of or
caused by the Third Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Section 9.j.v.(4). 

  

	 	vi.	Special Indemnification Procedures Regarding Buller Owners. If a Claim is made against a Buller Owner, the applicable Claim Notice shall be provided to the MEB Buller Owner as the “Buller Owner
Representative” instead of to such Buller Owner. With regard to any such Claim, the Buller Owner is hereby authorized to act on behalf of any Buller Owner and shall have the same rights as are granted in the preceding clauses
(1) through (4) of Section 9.j.v. to the Indemnifying Party with respect to any such Claim, including the right to control the defense of certain Third Party Claims and the right to consent to the settlement or compromise of
certain Claims, in each case subject to the limitations described in such clauses. 

  

	 	vii.	 Special Indemnification Procedures Regarding SKM Norcraft Owners. If a Claim is made against an SKM Norcraft Owner with respect to a breach by
SKM Norcraft or Norcraft GP of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or with respect to the SKM Norcraft Pre-Closing Tax 

  
 32 

	 	
Indemnity, the applicable Claim Notice shall be provided to SKM Equity as the “SKM Norcraft Owner Representative” instead of to such SKM Norcraft Owner. With regard to any such
Claim, the SKM Norcraft Owner Representative is hereby authorized to act on behalf of any SKM Norcraft Owner and shall have the same rights as are granted in the preceding clauses (1) through (4) of Section 9.j.v. to the
Indemnifying Party with respect to any such Claim, including the right to control the defense of certain Third Party Claims and the right to consent to the settlement or certain Claims, in each case subject to the limitations described in such
clauses. Further, SKM Norcraft Owner shall have the right to jointly defend against and control any Tax-related action, suit, proceeding, audit, investigation, claim or examination which could give rise to an adjustment to an item of taxable income,
gain, loss, deduction or credit with respect to a period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the date hereof (subject to the limitations described in Section 9.j.v.(3) hereof). 

 

	 	viii.	Special Indemnification Procedures Regarding Trimaran Cabinet Owners. If a Claim is made against a Trimaran Cabinet Owner with respect to a breach by Trimaran Cabinet or Norcraft GP of a representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement or with respect to the Trimaran Cabinet Pre-Closing Tax Indemnity, the applicable Claim Notice shall be provided to Trimaran Capital as the “Trimaran Cabinet Owner Representative” and not to such Trimaran
Cabinet Owner. With regard to any such Claim, the Trimaran Cabinet Owner Representative is hereby authorized to act on behalf of any Trimaran Cabinet Owner and shall have the same rights as are granted in the preceding clauses (1) through
(4) of Section 9.j.v. to the Indemnifying Party with respect to any such Claim, including the right to control the defense of certain Third Party Claims and the right to consent to the settlement or compromise of certain Claims, in
each case subject to the limitations in such clauses. Further, Trimaran Cabinet Owner shall have the right to jointly defend against and control any Tax-related action, suit, proceeding, audit, investigation, claim or examination which could give
rise to an adjustment to an item of taxable income, gain, loss, deduction or credit with respect to a period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the date hereof (subject to the limitations described in Section 9.j.v.(3) hereof).

 10. Tax Matters. 
  

	 	a.	Treatment of Norcraft LLC. The Parties agree to treat Norcraft LLC as a “continuation” of Holdings for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the Parties shall not take any position on a Tax Return
inconsistent with such treatment. 

  

	 	b.	The Norcraft GP Purchase. The Parties agree to treat the Norcraft GP Purchase as a purchase of equity interests for fair market value, and the Parties shall not take any position on a Tax Return inconsistent with
such treatment. 

  
 33 

	 	c.	The Norcraft Contribution. The Parties agree to treat the Norcraft Contribution, combined with the IPO, as a transaction described in Code Section 351, and the Parties shall not take any position on a Tax
Return inconsistent with such treatment. Norcraft, SKM Norcraft and Trimaran Cabinet shall also comply with the reporting requirements described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.351-3. 

 

	 	d.	Code Section 83(b) Elections. As a protective matter (in light of the intended “continuation” treatment described in clause (a) above), each Management Party that receives Common Units subject
to vesting conditions at the time of issuance agrees to timely and properly file an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to such Common Unit and shall promptly provide Norcraft LLC with a copy of such election.

  

	 	e.	Tax Forms. Each Party hereto shall, no later than the date hereof, execute and deliver a copy of each Tax Form (as defined in Exhibit H) listed opposite such Party’s name in the “Tax
Certificate” chart included in Exhibit H and substantially in the form of the applicable notice included in Exhibit H. Each Party shall, within five (5) days of the date hereof, deliver to Norcraft LLC two (2) original
copies of each such Tax Form required to be executed and delivered by such party. 

  

	 	f.	Tax Sharing Agreements; Powers of Attorney. Without the consent of Norcraft and Norcraft LLC, all Tax sharing or similar agreements and all powers of attorney with respect to or involving Norcraft GP, SKM
Norcraft, Trimaran Cabinet, MEB Buller, and Buller Norcraft. shall be terminated prior to the consummation of the Reorganization Transactions, and, after the consummation of the Reorganization Transactions, none of Norcraft, Norcraft LLC or any of
their Affiliates shall be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder. 

  

	 	g.	Amendments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Reorganization Documents to the contrary, except as may be required by applicable law, none of Norcraft, Norcraft LLC, or their Affiliates or
Representatives (including, after the consummation of the Reorganization Transactions, SKM Norcraft, Holdings, Trimaran Cabinet, Norcraft GP, MEB Buller and Buller Norcraft) may amend any Tax Return for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (including a
Straddle Period) of or with respect to (A) Norcraft GP, Norcraft LLC, Holdings or any of their respective subsidiaries without the consent of the Buller Owner Representative, the SKM Norcraft Owner Representative, and the Trimaran Cabinet Owner
Representative, (B) SKM Norcraft without the consent of the SKM Norcraft Owner Representative, (C) Trimaran Cabinet without the consent of the Trimaran Cabinet Owner Representative, or (D) MEB Buller or Buller Norcraft without the
consent of the Buller Owner Representative. If any such Tax Return is amended without obtaining the applicable consents described in the preceding sentence and such amendment is not required by applicable law, any and all costs or Taxes or other
Losses arising from or relating to such amendment shall not be treated as a Loss subject to indemnification hereunder. 

  
 34 

	 	h.	Straddle Periods. In the case of any taxable period of any of MEB Buller, Buller Norcraft, Norcraft GP, SKM Norcraft and Trimaran Capital that includes (but does not end on) the date hereof (a “Straddle
Period”), the amount of any Taxes of such Person based on or measured by income or receipts, sales or use taxes, transfer or transaction-based taxes, employment taxes, or withholding taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the
Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the date hereof (and for such purposes the taxable period of any entity classified as a partnership, “controlled foreign
corporation”, or disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes in which such Person or any of its subsidiaries holds a beneficial interest (including any subsidiary so classified, as applicable) will be deemed to terminate at such
time), and, with respect to SKM Norcraft and Trimaran Cabinet to the extent permitted by law, in a manner consistent with Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(vi). The amount of Taxes of such Person other than Taxes of such Person
described in the preceding sentence for a Straddle Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in
the portion of the taxable period ending on the date hereof and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period. 

  

	 	i.	Pre-Closing Tax Period Tax Returns. Norcraft or Norcraft LLC, as applicable, shall prepare (i) all Tax Returns of Holdings (including Norcraft LLC) and its subsidiaries, Norcraft GP and its subsidiaries, MEB
Buller, Buller Norcraft, SKM Norcraft, and Trimaran Cabinet that are required to be filed after the date hereof for any Pre-Closing Tax Period and (ii) all Tax Returns required to be filed with respect to Transfer Taxes described in
Section 10.j. (collectively, “Norcraft Returns”). All Norcraft Returns with respect to a Person shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the most recent Tax Returns of such Person unless Norcraft or Norcraft LLC
determines that a contrary position is required by applicable law. 

  

	 	i.	For any Norcraft Return with respect to Holdings (including Norcraft LLC) and its respective subsidiaries: not later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date for the filing of such a Norcraft Return, Norcraft

	 	d.	Further Assurances. At any time or from time to time after the date hereof, the Parties agree to cooperate with each other, and at the request of any other Party, to execute and deliver any further instruments or
documents and to take all such further action as another Party may reasonably request in order to evidence or effectuate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and to otherwise carry out the intent of the Parties hereunder.

  

	 	e.	Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement, together with the Reorganization Documents, embodies the complete agreement and understanding among the Parties hereto with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, that may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way. 

  
 39 

	 	f.	Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the state of Delaware. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no suit, action or proceeding with respect to this
Agreement may be brought in any court or before any similar authority other than in the Delaware Chancery Court, and the Parties hereto hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of such suit, proceeding or judgment.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Party hereto irrevocably waives any right it may have had to bring such an action in any other court, domestic or foreign, or before any similar domestic or foreign authority. Each of the Parties hereto
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding in relation to this Agreement and for any counterclaim herein. 

  

	 	g.	Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed,
construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 

  

	 	h.	Enforcement. Each Party hereto acknowledges that money damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any of the covenants or agreements in this Agreement are not performed in accordance with its
terms, and it is therefore agreed that in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, the non-breaching Party will have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of
competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof. 

  

	 	i.	No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of the Parties and no other Person or entity shall be a third Party beneficiary hereof. 

 

	 	j.	Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A
facsimile signature page (or signature page in similar electronic form) hereto shall be treated by the parties for all purposes as equivalent to a manually signed signature page.
