News Release

(1) The 2026 Notes Tender Cap is the maximum aggregate principal amount of the 4.200% Notes due 2026 that will be purchased in the Waterfall Offer.

(2) The Total Consideration payable for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline and accepted for purchase by us includes the applicable Early Tender Premium. In addition, holders whose Securities are accepted will also receive accrued interest on such Securities.

(3) As reported by Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the tender and information agent for the tender offers.

Subject to the Maximum Waterfall Tender Amount, the amount of each series of Waterfall Notes that are purchased in the Waterfall Offer will be determined in accordance with the acceptance priority levels specified in Table II above (the “Acceptance Priority Levels”), with 1 being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and 3 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level. In addition, the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.200% Notes due 2026 purchased in the Waterfall Offer will not exceed the 2026 Notes Tender Cap, as specified in Table II above.

Because the aggregate principal amount of validly tendered Waterfall Notes exceeded the Maximum Waterfall Tender Amount, the Waterfall Notes will be purchased subject to Acceptance Priority Levels and proration as described in the Offer to Purchase.

Holders of Securities that were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline and accepted for purchase will receive the applicable Total Consideration which includes the applicable Early Tender Premium specified in the tables above. Payments for Securities purchased will include accrued and unpaid interest from and including the last interest payment date applicable to the relevant series of Securities up to, but not including, the applicable settlement date for such Securities accepted for purchase. The settlement date for securities tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline and accepted for purchase is expected to be October 18, 2018. The Company expects to issue a press release on October 16, 2018 announcing the Total Consideration payable in connection with the tender offers.

Although the tender offers are scheduled to expire at midnight, New York City time, at the end of October 29, 2018, unless extended or terminated (the “Expiration Date”), because the Waterfall Offer was fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Deadline, the Company does not expect to accept for purchase any Waterfall Notes tendered after the Early Tender Deadline. Securities not accepted for purchase will be promptly returned or credited to the holder’s account. Holders of Any and All Notes who validly tender such notes following the Early Tender Deadline and at or prior to the Expiration Date will only receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration for Securities accepted for purchase, which is equal to the applicable Total Consideration minus the applicable Early Tender Premium. The Company has also called for redemption of the remaining Any and All Notes not tendered in the Any and All Offer at the redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, November 9, 2018.

Newell Brands’ obligation to accept for payment and to pay for the Securities validly tendered in the tender offers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase.
