Item 1.01. 
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On August 20, 2013, Spectrum Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that the Company’s Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation of the holders of its 9.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the “Notes”) successfully received the consent of the holders of approximately 94.01% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes as of August 19, 2013 (the “consent date”). Following the receipt of the consents of the holders of 75% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, the Company entered on August 19, 2013 into a supplemental indenture amending the indenture governing the Notes with the trustee and the guarantors under the indenture. The supplemental indenture eliminates substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain events of default and the repurchase rights in the event of certain asset sales or changes of control and related provisions contained in the Indenture with respect to the Notes, and released the collateral then securing the Notes. The supplemental indenture is effective upon execution, but none of the amendments will be operative until the acceptance for purchase by the Company of a majority of the outstanding Notes, and the amendments releasing the collateral will not be effective until the acceptance for purchase by the Company of at least 75% of the outstanding Notes. A copy of the press release issued by the Company with respect to the supplemental indenture is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
