Safe Harbor

This news release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws and is intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding the Company’s proposed combination with Newell Rubbermaid, expected, anticipated or estimated net sales, adjusted earnings per share, organic revenue growth and cash flow from operations. These statements are based on management’s estimates and assumptions with respect to future events and financial performance and are believed to be reasonable, though are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict.

A discussion of factors that could cause results to vary is included in the Company’s periodic and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

These preliminary estimates are based on the most current information available to management as of the date hereof. Our actual results may differ materially from these preliminary estimates due to, among other things, the completion of our accounting close and audit procedures, final adjustments and other developments that may arise between now and the time that our audited consolidated financial results as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, are finalized.
