(r) Each of Section 2.17(a), (d), (e), (f)(i), (g) and (i) of the Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(a) Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up. Each payment by or on behalf of any Credit Party under any Credit Document shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by any law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by such Credit Party shall be increased as necessary so that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such withholding been made.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by (or required to be deducted or withheld from any payment to) such Recipient in connection with any Credit Document (including amounts paid or payable under this Section 2.17(d)) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.17(d) shall be paid within 10 days after the Recipient delivers to the Borrower a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by such Recipient and describing the basis for the indemnification claim. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Such Recipient shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender (or resulting from such Lender’s failure to maintain a Participation Register) that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.17(e) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A) through (E) and (iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.17(f) or notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its legal inability to do so. If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund)), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund)). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17(g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.17(g) if such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund (or credit in lieu of a refund) had never been paid. This Section 2.17(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i) Issuing Bank. For purposes of Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank.

(s) Section 3.04(b) of the Credit Agreement shall be amended by replacing the reference to “December 31, 2010” therein with a reference to “December 31, 2012”.

(t) Section 5.01 of the Credit Agreement shall be amended by adding the following sentence to the end thereof:

In lieu of delivering to the Lenders copies of the items referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) above, the Borrower may make available such items on its website at www.fbhs.com, at www.sec.gov or at such other website as notified to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, which shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirement of delivery of such items in accordance with this Section.

(u) Section 5.10(b) of the Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time a Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer the guarantor of Indebtedness of the Borrower aggregating in excess of $10,000,000, then the applicable Subsidiary Guaranty shall cease to be in effect unless at such time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, that the requirements of Section 5.10(a) shall remain applicable to such Domestic Subsidiary with respect to subsequent Guarantees of Indebtedness of the Borrower.

(v) Section 9.04(b)(iv) of the Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of (and stated interest on) the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(w) Schedule 2.01 of the Credit Agreement shall be deleted and replaced with the form of Schedule 2.01 attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(x) Exhibit B-1 of the Credit Agreement shall be deleted and replaced with the form of Exhibit B-1 attached hereto as Exhibit B.

(y) Exhibit B-2 of the Credit Agreement shall be deleted and replaced with the form of Exhibit B-2 attached hereto as Exhibit C.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Consenting Lender, severally, agrees to make a Term Loan to the Borrower on the Effective Date in a principal amount equal to the amount, if any, by which (i) the Term Loan Commitment of such Consenting Lender, as set forth in Exhibit A of this Amendment, exceeds (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans held by such Consenting Lender immediately prior to making the new Term Loan contemplated by this Section 2(a).

(b) (i) Each Term Loan under Section 2(a) of this Amendment shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Term Loans made by the Consenting Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Term Commitments hereunder. The failure of any Consenting Lender to make any Term Loan required to be made by it pursuant to such Section 2(a) shall not relieve any other Consenting Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided, that the Term Commitments of the Consenting Lenders are several and no Consenting Lender shall be responsible for any other Consenting Lender’s failure to make a Term Loan as required hereunder.

(ii) Each Term Loan made pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Amendment shall constitute a Term Loan for purposes of the Credit Agreement, from and after the Effective Date and rank pari passu in all respects with all other Term Loans, whether made on the Effective Date or the date of the initial Borrowing under the Credit Agreement.

(iii) Each Term Loan made pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Amendment is not being made pursuant to Section 2.09 of the Credit Agreement and shall not affect in any way the Borrower’s rights under Section 2.09 of the Credit Agreement to request additional Loans thereunder, in accordance with the terms thereof.

(iv) Sections 2.03 and 2.07 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to and govern the Term Loans made under Section 2(a) of this Amendment on the Effective Date, except that any proceeds of such Term Loans required to pay amounts due to any Consenting Lenders in accordance with Section 2(c) of this Amendment and any Exiting Lenders in accordance with Section 2(d) of this Amendment shall be applied as provided in such Sections before any amounts are credited to the Borrower as provided in Section 2.07 of the Credit Agreement.

(v) No amount of any Term Loan made under Section 2(a) of this Amendment which is repaid or prepaid by the Borrower may be reborrowed.

(c) If the Term Commitment or Revolving Commitment of any Consenting Lender as set forth in Exhibit A is less than the amount of its outstanding Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable, as of the Effective Date, any such Consenting Lender shall be paid the amount required such that after giving effect to such payment, such Consenting Lender’s Term Commitment and/or Revolving Commitment, as applicable, as of the Effective Date is equal to the amount of its outstanding Term Loans and/or Revolving Loans, as applicable, as set forth in Exhibit A. The Consenting Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby consent to the non-pro rata prepayments contemplated by this Section 2(c) and waive any notice of Commitment reduction or prepayment that may otherwise be required by Sections 2.09(c) and 2.11(b) of the Credit Agreement. The Borrower and each Consenting Lender hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to apply any proceeds of Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Amendment, upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, to pay to any such Consenting Lender the amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2(c) on the Effective Date.

(d) Any Lender that is not a Consenting Lender (each, an “Exiting Lender”) shall, effective upon the Effective Date, no longer be a Lender under the Credit Agreement and (i) its Commitment shall be deemed voluntarily terminated by the Borrower upon the Effective Date pursuant to Section 2.09(b) of the Credit Agreement and (ii) the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it shall be paid in full together with all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under the Credit Agreement. The Consenting Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby consent to the non-pro rata Commitment terminations and prepayments contemplated by this Section 2(d) and waive any notice of Commitment termination or prepayment that may otherwise be required by Sections 2.09(c) and 2.11(b) of the Credit Agreement. The Borrower and each Consenting Lender hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to apply any proceeds of Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Amendment, upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, to pay to any Exiting Lender the amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2(d) on the Effective Date. To the extent that such proceeds are insufficient to repay all such amounts, the Borrower shall pay, or remit to the Administrative Agent for payment, the amount of any such insufficiency.

(e) On the Effective Date, the Risk Participation (as defined below) of each Exiting Lender shall be transferred and assumed by the Consenting Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments under the Credit Agreement after giving effect to this Amendment such that all such Revolving Credit Exposure will be held ratably by the Consenting Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments under the Credit Agreement after giving effect to this Amendment. “Risk Participation” means, at any date, the aggregate amount of funded and unfunded obligations of any Lender to purchase participations from or make payments for the account of the Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.05(c) of the Credit Agreement and any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.06(d) of the Credit Agreement.

(f) The Term Commitments corresponding to the Term Loans to be made pursuant Section 2(a) of this Amendment on the Effective Date (i) shall terminate upon the making of such Term Loans on the Effective Date, and (ii) shall not be considered a Term Commitment for purposes of Section 2.12(a) of the Credit Agreement.
