EXHIBIT 10.1


         Second Amendment to Global Revolving Credit Agreement (5-Year)

      The Second Amendment to Global Revolving Credit Agreement (5-Year) (the
"Amendment") dated as of June 2 1999 among Sealed Air Corporation (the
"Company"), the Subsidiary Borrowers party hereto, the Subsidiary Guarantors
party hereto, the Banks party hereto, and ABN AMRO Bank N.V., as Administrative
Agent;

                              W i t n e s s e t h:

      Whereas, the Company (which was formerly known as W. R. Grace & Co.) and
the Subsidiary Borrowers, the Guarantors, the Banks and ABN AMRO Bank N.V., as
Administrative Agent, have heretofore executed and delivered a Global Revolving
Credit Agreement (5-Year) dated as of March 30, 1998 (as amended, the "Credit
Agreement"); and

      Whereas, the parties hereto desire to further amend the Credit Agreement
as provided herein;

      Now, therefore, for good and valuable consideration the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree that the
Credit Agreement shall be and hereby is amended as follows:

      1. Section 8.04 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by:

         (a) deleting the word "and" at the end of clause (g) thereof;

         (b) adding a new clause (h) reading in its entirety as follows:

               "(h) Indebtedness of Foreign Subsidiaries denominated in Euros in
         an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not exceeding
         Euro 250,000,000; and" and

         (c) re-lettering clause (h) as clause (i).

      2. This Amendment shall become effective on the date the Administrative
Agent shall have received counterparts hereof executed by the Borrowers and the
Required Banks (or, in the case of any party as to which an executed counterpart
hereof shall not have been received, receipt by the Administrative Agent in form
satisfactory to it of facsimile or other written confirmation from such party of
execution of a counterpart hereof by such party).

      3.1. To induce the Administrative Agent and the Banks to enter into this
Amendment, each Borrower and Guarantor represents and warrants to the
Administrative Agent and the Banks that: (a) the representations and warranties
contained in the Credit Documents, as amended by this Amendment (other than
Section 6.05 of the Credit Agreement), are true and correct in all material
respects as of the date hereof with the same effect as though made on the date
hereof (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which
by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and
correct in all material respects only as of such specified date); (b) after
giving effect to this Amendment, no Default exists; (c) this Amendment has been
duly authorized by all necessary corporate proceedings and duly executed and
delivered by each Borrower and each Guarantor, and the Credit Agreement, as
amended by this Amendment, and each of the other Credit Documents are the legal,
valid and binding obligations of the applicable Borrower or Guarantor,
enforceable against such Borrower or Guarantor in accordance with their
respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar laws of general application affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights or by general principles of equity; and (d) no
consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification with any
governmental authority is required for, and in the absence of which would
adversely effect, the legal and valid execution and delivery or performance by
any Borrower or any Guarantor of this Amendment or the performance by any
Borrower or any Guarantor of the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment,
or any other Credit Document to which they are party.

      3.2. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
the different parties on separate counterparts and each such counterpart shall
be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute
but one and the same Amendment.

      3.3. Except as specifically provided above, the Credit Agreement and the
other Credit Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby
ratified and confirmed in all respects. The execution, delivery, and
effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein,
operate as a waiver of any right, power, or remedy of the Agent or any Bank
under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, nor constitute
a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the other Credit Documents.

      3.4. This Amendment and the rights and obligations of the parties
hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the law of
the State of New York.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be
executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the day
and year first above written.
