As previously announced, Spectrum Brands, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Spectrum Brands”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 9, 2010, by and among Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. (“SB Holdings”), Battery Merger Corp., Grill Merger Corp., Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs, Inc. (“Russell Hobbs”), as amended from time to time.
As presented below, Spectrum Brands has released unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2009 and for the six month period ended April 4, 2010.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2009 and for the six month period ended April 4, 2010, the date of the latest publicly available financial information for Spectrum Brands, gives effect to the acquisitions of Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs by SB Holdings (collectively, the “Mergers,” and together with the transactions related to the Mergers, the “Transactions”). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements shown below reflect historical financial information and have been prepared on the basis that the Mergers are accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805: Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Although SB Holdings will issue 51,620,483 shares of its common stock to effect the Mergers, for accounting purposes Spectrum Brands has been treated as the acquirer in the proposed merger transactions. See Note 2, Basis of Presentation, in the Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements for more information on the accounting treatment afforded the Mergers. The transaction between Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the consideration transferred in the proposed transaction with Russell Hobbs, that is, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, will be measured at their respective fair values with any excess reflected as goodwill. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements assume that, as part of a number of merger-related transactions to occur simultaneously, Russell Hobbs will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Spectrum Brands and SB Holdings will become the parent of the newly merged entity.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of financial position at April 4, 2010 is presented on a basis to reflect the Transactions as if they had occurred on April 4, 2010. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six month period ended April 4, 2010 and for the year ended September 30, 2009 are presented on a basis to reflect the Transactions as if they had occurred on October 1, 2008. Because of different fiscal year ends, and in order to present results for comparable periods, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six month period ended April 4, 2010 combines Spectrum Brands’ historical consolidated statement of operations for the six month period ended April 4, 2010 with Russell Hobbs’ historical consolidated statement of operations for the six month period ended March 31, 2010. Russell Hobbs’ historical consolidated statement of operations for the three month period ended September 30, 2009 has been excluded from the interim results in order to present comparable results to Spectrum Brands’ six month period ended April 4, 2010. See Note 1, Conforming Interim Periods, in the Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements for additional information. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 combines Spectrum Brands’ historical audited consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year then ended with Russell Hobbs’ historical audited consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. SB Holdings’ fiscal year ends September 30, the same date as Spectrum Brands’ fiscal year end. Pro forma adjustments are made in order to reflect the potential effect of the transaction on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and the notes thereto were based on, and should be read in conjunction with:
| • | Spectrum’s Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 29, 2010; |
| • | Spectrum’s historical audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in its Annual Report on |
2
| • | Spectrum Brands’ historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Spectrum Brands’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six month periods ended April 4, 2010 filed with the SEC on May 18, 2010; |
| • | Russell Hobbs’ historical audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 and notes thereto, which are included in the proxy statement/prospectus; and |
| • | Russell Hobbs’ historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2010, which are included on Form 8-K filed with the SEC by Spectrum Brands on May 18, 2010. |
The process of valuing Russell Hobbs’ tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, as well as evaluating accounting policies for conformity, is still in the preliminary stages. Accordingly, the purchase price allocation adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, SB Holdings has made preliminary allocations, where sufficient information is available to make a fair value estimate, to those tangible and intangible assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed based on preliminary estimates of their fair value as of April 4, 2010. For those assets and liabilities where insufficient information is available to make a reasonable estimate of fair value, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements reflect the carrying value of those assets and liabilities at April 4, 2010. A final determination of fair values, which cannot be made prior to the completion of the Mergers, will include consideration of a final valuation. This final valuation will be based on the actual net tangible and intangible assets of Russell Hobbs that exist as of the date of completion of the Mergers. SB Holdings currently expects that the process of determining fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be completed within one year of closing the Transactions. Material revisions to SB Holdings’ preliminary estimates could be necessary as more information becomes available through the completion of this final determination. The actual amounts recorded following the completion of the Mergers may be materially different from the information presented in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements due to a number of factors, including:
| • | timing of completion of the Mergers; |
| • | changes in the price of the Spectrum Brands common stock; |
| • | changes in the net assets of Russell Hobbs; |
| • | changes in market conditions and financial results which may impact cash flow projections in the preliminary valuations; and |
| • | other changes in market conditions which may impact the fair value of Russell Hobbs’ net assets. |
Spectrum Brands’ and Russell Hobbs’ historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (i) directly attributable to the Transactions; (ii) factually supportable; and (iii) with respect to the unaudited pro forma statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect any revenue enhancements, cost savings from operating efficiencies, synergies or other restructurings, or the costs and related liabilities that would be incurred to achieve such revenue enhancements, cost savings from operating efficiencies, synergies or restructurings, which could result from the Mergers.
The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and assumptions that the managements of Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs believe reasonably reflect the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or the consolidated financial position of SB Holdings would have been had the Transactions occurred on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results of operations or the financial position of SB Holdings.

(1) Conforming Interim Periods
Spectrum Brands’ fiscal year end is September 30 while Russell Hobbs’ fiscal year end is June 30. The latest interim period for Spectrum Brands is its second quarter results for the six month period ended April 4, 2010 while Russell Hobbs’ latest interim period is its third quarter results for the nine month period ended March 31, 2010. In order for the unaudited interim pro forma results of Russell Hobbs to be comparative to the unaudited interim pro forma results of Spectrum Brands, the interim results of Russell Hobbs reflect the six months ended March 31, 2010. Accordingly, Russell Hobbs’ historical financial information for the statement of operations covering the three month period ended September 30, 2009 has been excluded, as follows:

(2) Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared using the historical consolidated financial statements of Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs with the Transactions accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805-10. The acquisition method requires all of the following steps:
| (a) | identifying the acquirer; |
| (b) | determining the acquisition date; |
| (c) | recognizing and measuring the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; and |
| (d) | recognizing and measuring goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. |

Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Combined Financial Statements — (Continued)
(Amounts in millions, except per share amounts)
For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, Spectrum Brands is identified as the acquirer and Russell Hobbs has been treated as the acquiree in the Mergers. Spectrum Brands’ fiscal year end is September 30 while Russell Hobbs’ fiscal year end is June 30.
(3) Significant Accounting Policies
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements of SB Holdings do not assume any differences in accounting policies between Spectrum Brands and Russell Hobbs. Upon consummation of the Mergers, SB Holdings will review the accounting policies of Russell Hobbs to ensure conformity of such accounting policies to those of Spectrum Brands and, as a result of that review, SB Holdings may identify differences between the accounting policies of the two companies, that when conformed, could have a material impact on the combined financial statements. At this time, SB Holdings is not aware of any difference that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
(4) Estimate of Consideration Expected to Be Transferred
The acquisition method of accounting requires that the consideration transferred in a business combination be measured at fair value as of the closing date of the acquisition. After consummation of the Mergers, the stockholders of Spectrum Brands, inclusive of the Harbinger Parties (as defined in the proxy statement/prospectus), are expected to own approximately 59% of SB Holdings and the stockholders of Russell Hobbs are expected to own approximately 41% of SB Holdings. Inasmuch as Russell Hobbs is a private company and its common stock is not publicly traded, the closing market price of the Spectrum common stock as of May 12, 2010, the most recent date practical to allow for the preparation of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, was used to estimate the consideration transferred. SB Holdings believes this method provides the most reliable determination of fair value for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
The following is a preliminary estimate of consideration expected to be transferred to effect the Mergers as if they had occurred on April 4, 2010:
Spectrum common stock and equity awards outstanding as of April 4, 2010 | 30.6 | ||
Spectrum common stock closing price per share on May 12, 2010 | $ | 26.80 | |
Preliminary purchase price — Spectrum Brands allocation — 30.6 shares(1) | $ | 820.9 | |
Preliminary purchase price — Russell Hobbs allocation — 21.0 shares(2) | 562.6 | ||
Total preliminary purchase price SB Holdings | $ | 1,383.5 | |
Allocated fair value of Spectrum Brands’ purchase of Russell Hobbs | $ | 562.6 | |
Less: book value of net assets acquired | 309.3 | ||
Less: estimated fair value adjustment of net assets acquired | 136.0 | ||
Residual goodwill | $ | 117.3 | |

| (d) | Adjustment reflects the revaluation of Russell Hobbs’ property, plant and equipment to fair value. |
| (e) | Adjustment reflects the elimination of Russell Hobbs’ historical goodwill in accordance with acquisition accounting, and the establishment of $117.3 of estimated goodwill resulting from the transaction. |
| (f) | Adjustment to record Russell Hobbs’ intangible assets at estimated fair value. Based on a preliminary valuation SB Holdings currently estimates that the intangible assets of Russell Hobbs will be increased by approximately $207.3. |
| As part of the business combination, certain Russell Hobbs’ intangible assets were identified and the value quantified at fair value. Specifically, the identifiable intangible assets consisted of customer relationships, the Russell Hobbs portfolio of trade names, other trademark license agreements, proprietary technology, and employment non-compete agreements. The $403.2 assigned to the fair value of the intangible assets was based on a preliminary valuation. The identifiable assets were valued using historical metrics (e.g., prior license agreements) to the extent possible. In addition, other similar transactions were also considered. Furthermore, the projected cash flows associated with each asset were considered over the life of the intangible assets when applicable, and discounted back to present value. The license agreements, customer relationships, proprietary technology and non-compete agreement intangibles are amortized, using the straight-line method, over their estimated useful lives of approximately 5 to 20 years. The trade names are considered as indefinite-lived intangible assets and are not amortized. Customer relationships and other trademark license agreements were valued utilizing the multi-period excess earnings method. The relief-from-royalty method was used to value the proprietary technology and the Russell Hobbs’ portfolio of trade names. The employment non-compete agreements were estimated by utilizing the with and without method of the income approach. |
| The preliminary estimates of useful lives of the intangible assets subject to amortization that were acquired were as follows: 20 years for customer relationships, 12 years for license agreements, approximately 10 years for technology assets and 5 years for non-compete agreements. The preliminary estimates of annual amortization of the intangible assets acquired was as follows: approximately $2.9 for customer relationships, $12.5 for license agreements, $0.3 for technology assets and $0.3 for non-compete agreements. The consolidated estimated annual intangible asset amortization of SB Holdings is approximately $56.0, which includes approximately $40.0 for Spectrum Brands. |
| (g) | Adjustment reflects the reclassification of Russell Hobbs’ deferred financing fees totaling $12.7 from other assets to debt issuance costs. |
| (h) | The net adjustment reflects the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees associated with the termination of Spectrum Brands’ $242.0 U.S. Dollar asset based revolving loan facility (the “ABL Revolving Credit Facility”) of $7.4 and Russell Hobbs’ $125.0 asset based senior secured revolving credit facility (the “North American Credit Facility”) of $2.7. Deferred financing fees expected to be incurred in connection with the Senior Facilities to be obtained at the time of the Mergers are estimated at $60.0. SB Holdings estimates the annual amortization related to such deferred financing fees will approximate $10.0. |

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the adjustment to additional paid-in capital records the $562.6 fair value of the Russell Hobbs’ 21.0 shares of SB Holdings common stock at the fair value price of $26.80. Accumulated deficit adjustment reflects a decrease of $47.0 associated with professional and transaction related fees and $73.8 representing the net effect of all fair value and pro forma adjustments associated with the Transactions. |
| (q) | SB Holdings estimates cost of sales will increase by approximately $1.3 during the first inventory turn subsequent to the acquisition date due to the write-up of inventory. This cost has been excluded from the pro forma adjustments as this amount is considered non-recurring. See note (c) above for further explanation on the write-up of inventory. |

For purposes of this pro forma adjustment fair value is assumed to be the closing price of the Spectrum common stock at May 12, 2010 of $26.80 per share, as SB Holdings believes this provides the most reliable determination of fair value. See Note 4, Estimate of Consideration Expected to Be Transferred, in the Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements. |

An assumed increase or decrease of 1/8% in the interest rate of the Senior secured asset-based revolving facility, the Senior secured term facility and the Senior secured notes would impact total pro forma interest expense presented above by $1.9 and $1.0 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 and the six month period ended April 4, 2010, respectively.
