<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Pursuant to the Wisconsin
Business Corporation Law (the &#147;WBCL&#148;) and the Registrant&#146;s Amended and Restated
By-Laws, directors and officers of the Registrant are entitled to mandatory
indemnification from the Registrant against certain liabilities and expenses
(i) to the extent such directors or officers are successful in the defense of a
proceeding and (ii) in proceedings in which the director or officer is not
successful in the defense thereof, unless (in the latter case only) it is
determined that the director or officer breached or failed to perform his
duties to the Registrant and such breach or failure constituted (a) a willful
failure to deal fairly with the Registrant or its shareholders in connection
with a matter in which the director or officer had a material conflict of
interest; (b) a violation of the criminal law unless the director or officer
had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or had no
reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful; (c) a
transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal
profit; or (d) willful misconduct.&#160; The
WBCL also provides that, subject to certain limitations, the mandatory
indemnification provisions do not preclude any additional right to
indemnification or allowance of expenses that a director or officer may have
under the Registrant&#146;s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, Amended
and Restated By-Laws, a written agreement or a resolution of the Board of
Directors or shareholders.&#160; Further, the
WBCL specifically states that it is the public policy of Wisconsin to require
or permit indemnification in connection with a proceeding involving securities
regulation, as described therein, to the extent required or permitted as
described above.&#160; Additionally, under
the WBCL, directors of the Registrant are not subject to personal liability to
the Registrant, its shareholders or any person asserting rights on behalf thereof
for certain breaches of or failures to perform any duty resulting solely from
their status as directors, except in circumstances paralleling those in
subparagraphs (a) through (d) outlined above.</font></p>

Registrant under certain circumstances.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The general effect of the

has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.</p>

PART I
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS
The documents containing the
information specified in Part I will be sent or given to employees as specified
by Rule 428(b)(1). Such documents are not being filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") either as part of this Registration
Statement or as prospectuses or prospectus supplements pursuant to Rule 424.
Such documents and the documents incorporated by reference in this Registration
Statement pursuant to Item 3 of Part II of this Form, taken together,
constitute a prospectus that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the
Securities Act.
PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3.  Incorporation
of Documents by Reference.
The Registrant is subject to
the informational and reporting requirements of Sections 13(a), 14 and 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and in
accordance therewith files reports, proxy statements and other information with
the Commission. The following documents, which are on file with the Commission,
are incorporated in this Registration Statement by reference:
(1)
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2003;
(2)
All other reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13(a) or
15(d) of the Exchange Act, since September 30, 2003; and
(3)
The description of Common Stock contained in the Registrant's
Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-35181).
All documents subsequently
filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates
that all shares of Common Stock offered hereby have been sold or which
deregisters all shares of Common Stock then remaining unsold, shall be deemed
to be incorporated by reference herein and to be part hereof from the date of
the filing of such documents. Any statement contained in a document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed
to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the
extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document
which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or
supersedes such statement. Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be
deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this
Registration Statement.
Item 4.  Description
of Securities.
Not
applicable.
Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The legality of the shares
of Common Stock being registered by this Registration Statement has been passed
upon by James T. Lucke, Esq., who is the Senior Vice President,
2
Secretary and General Counsel of the
Registrant.  As an employee of the
Registrant, Mr. Lucke is eligible to participate and will likely receive awards
under the 2004 Incentive Plan. 
Additionally, at the time of preparing his opinion, and at all times
thereafter through the date of effectiveness of this Registration Statement,
Mr. Lucke was the beneficial owner of 11,558 shares of Common Stock and held
options to purchase 74,080 shares of Common Stock under the Rayovac 1997
Incentive Plan.  Of the options held by
Mr. Lucke, none were exercisable except for options to purchase 56,600 shares
of Common Stock at an average weighted exercise price of $21.08 per share.
Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers
.
Pursuant to the Wisconsin
Business Corporation Law (the "WBCL") and the Registrant's Amended and Restated
By-Laws, directors and officers of the Registrant are entitled to mandatory
indemnification from the Registrant against certain liabilities and expenses
(i) to the extent such directors or officers are successful in the defense of a
proceeding and (ii) in proceedings in which the director or officer is not
successful in the defense thereof, unless (in the latter case only) it is
determined that the director or officer breached or failed to perform his
duties to the Registrant and such breach or failure constituted (a) a willful
failure to deal fairly with the Registrant or its shareholders in connection
with a matter in which the director or officer had a material conflict of
interest; (b) a violation of the criminal law unless the director or officer
had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or had no
reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful; (c) a
transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal
profit; or (d) willful misconduct.  The
WBCL also provides that, subject to certain limitations, the mandatory
indemnification provisions do not preclude any additional right to
indemnification or allowance of expenses that a director or officer may have
under the Registrant's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, Amended
and Restated By-Laws, a written agreement or a resolution of the Board of
Directors or shareholders.  Further, the
WBCL specifically states that it is the public policy of Wisconsin to require
or permit indemnification in connection with a proceeding involving securities
regulation, as described therein, to the extent required or permitted as
described above.  Additionally, under
the WBCL, directors of the Registrant are not subject to personal liability to
the Registrant, its shareholders or any person asserting rights on behalf thereof
for certain breaches of or failures to perform any duty resulting solely from
their status as directors, except in circumstances paralleling those in
subparagraphs (a) through (d) outlined above.
Expenses for the defense of
any action for which indemnification may be available may be advanced by the
Registrant under certain circumstances.
The general effect of the
foregoing provisions may be to reduce the circumstances in which an officer or
director may be required to bear the economic burden of the foregoing
liabilities and expenses.
The Registrant has purchased
directors' and officers' liability insurance which would indemnify the
directors and officers of the Registrant against damages arising out of certain
kinds of claims which might be made against them based on their negligent acts or
omissions while acting in their capacity as such.
Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed
.
Not
applicable.
3
Item 8.  Exhibits.
The
Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits is incorporated herein by
reference.
Item 9.  Undertakings.
a.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file,
during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i)
To include
any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to
such information in this Registration Statement.
(2)
That, for
the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona
fide
offering thereof.
(3)
To remove
from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
b.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
c.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.
