Item 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

New Indenture
On February 7, 2005, Rayovac Corporation (the "Company") and certain of its
domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into an Indenture (the
"Indenture") with U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, relating to the
issuance by the Company of $700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7 3/8%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015 (the "Notes"). The Notes were sold in a
private transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"), and have not been and will not
be registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the
United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act.

The Notes bear an interest rate of 7 3/8% per annum and will be payable
semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1, commencing on August 1,
2005. The Company will make each interest payment to the holders of record on
the immediately preceding January 15 and July 15. The Notes are general
unsecured obligations of the Company. They are subordinated in right of
payment to all existing and future senior debt of the Company, including the
indebtedness of the Company under its senior credit facilities. The Notes are
pari passu in right of payment with all existing and any future senior
subordinated indebtedness of the Company and are senior in right of payment to
any future subordinated indebtedness of the Company.

The terms of the Notes are governed by the Indenture. The Indenture contains
customary covenants that limit the Company's ability to, among other things,
incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends on or redeem or repurchase the
Company's equity interests, make certain investments, expand into unrelated
businesses, create liens on assets, merge or consolidate with another company,
transfer or sell all or substantially all of the Company's assets, and enter
into transactions with affiliates. Upon the occurrence of a "change of
control," as defined in the Indenture, the Company is required to make an
offer to repurchase the outstanding Notes at 101% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

Beginning on February 1, 2010, the Company may redeem all or a part of the
Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at redemption
prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) of 101.229%, 102.458%
and 103.688% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest
and any applicable liquidated damages, for redemptions occurring during the
twelve-month period beginning on February 1 of 2012, 2011, and 2010,
respectively. Thereafter, the redemption price is 100.000% of the principal
amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and any
applicable liquidated damages. Prior to February 1, 2008, the Company may
redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes at a redemption
price of 107.375% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest and any applicable liquidated damages, with the net cash proceeds
from certain equity offerings of the Company.

The Indenture is subject to customary events of default, including failure to
make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or
covenants, failure to pay or acceleration of certain other indebtedness, and
certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Events of default


                                      2
<PAGE>

under the Indenture arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency
will automatically cause the acceleration of the amounts due under the Notes.
If any other event of default under the Indenture occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee or the registered holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the acceleration of the
amounts due under the Notes.

The net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with borrowings
under the Company's new senior credit facilities, were used to finance the
acquisition of United Industries Corporation ("United"), to retire United's
then existing indebtedness and the Company's former senior credit facilities,
and to pay related fees and expenses.

Supplement to Existing Indenture
On February 7, 2005, the Company, U.S. Bank National Association and certain
subsidiaries of the Company entered into the Third Supplemental Indenture (the
"Third Supplemental Indenture") to the Indenture (the "2003 Indenture") dated
as of September 30, 2003 (as previously supplemented) governing the Company's
8 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013. The Third Supplemental Indenture
added United and certain of its subsidiaries as guarantors under the 2003
Indenture, removed Lindbergh Corporation, whose corporate existence was
terminated in connection with the Company's acquisition of United, as a
guarantor under the 2003 Indenture and corrected certain cross-references
contained in the 2003 Indenture.

New Credit Agreement, Security Agreement and Guarantees
On February 7, 2005, the Company, as the U.S. Borrower, the Subsidiary
Borrowers named therein, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing
Line Lender and L/C Issuer, Citicorp North America, Inc., as Syndication
Agent, Merrill Lynch Capital Corporation, as Documentation Agent and as
Managing Agent, the other lenders party thereto, Banc of America Securities
LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as Joint Lead Arrangers, and Banc of
America Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Merrill Lynch,
Pierce, Fenner & Smith, as Joint Book Managers, entered into the Fourth
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Senior Credit Facility"), which
amended and restated the Company's preexisting credit agreement relating to
its preexisting senior credit facilities. The Senior Credit Facility provides
the opportunity to borrow in domestic and foreign currencies through various
term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities in an initial aggregate
amount of $1.03 billion. The Senior Credit Facility includes aggregate term
loan facilities of $730 million consisting of a $540 million U.S. Dollar Term
Loan B Facility, U.S. $140 million Euro Term Loan B Facility and U.S. $50
million Canadian Dollar Term Loan B Facility. The Senior Credit Facility also
includes $300 million revolving credit facilities allowing for U.S. Dollar,
Euro and Pounds Sterling borrowings (the "Revolving Credit Facilities"), each
of which will be available from February 7, 2005 until the earliest of (a)
February 6, 2011, (b) voluntary termination by the borrowers or (c)
termination as a result of an event of default under the Credit Agreement
(together, the "Maturity Date"). The Revolving Credit Facilities include
sublimits for swing line loans ("Swing Line Loans") denominated in U.S.
dollars, Euros and Pounds Sterling equal to the lesser of U.S.$15,000,000 and
the amount currently available under the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility for
borrowings in U.S. dollars; the lesser of the U.S. dollar equivalent of
(euro)5,000,000 and the amount currently available under the Euro Revolving
Credit Facility for borrowings in Euros, and the lesser of the U.S. dollar
equivalent of (pound)5,000,000 and the amount currently available under the UK
Revolving Credit Facility for borrowings in Pounds Sterling.


                                      3
<PAGE>

The Company is the U.S. borrower under the Senior Credit Facility and certain
of its subsidiaries, namely Varta Consumer Batteries GmbH & Co. KGaA and
Rayovac Europe Limited are foreign borrowers. At any time, and from time to
time before the Maturity Date, the Company can request up to five additional
incremental term loan facilities in U.S. dollars, Euros or with the consent of
the Administrative Agent, other foreign currencies, all in an aggregate amount
up to $500 million. The Company may add additional foreign borrowers from time
to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent.

The interest and fees per annum are calculated on a 365-day (or 366-day, as
the case may be) basis for Base Rate (as defined below) loans and loans
denominated in Pounds Sterling. For all other denominations, interest and fees
per annum are calculated on the basis of a 360-day year. The interest rates
per annum applicable to the Senior Credit Facility (other than in respect of
Swing Line Loans) are the Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Margin (as
defined below) or, at the Company's option in the case of advances made in
U.S. dollars, the base rate (which is the higher of (x) the Bank of America
prime rate and (y) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% (the "Base Rate")) plus
the Applicable Margin. Applicable Margin means, (i) with respect to the U.S.
Dollar Term Loan B Facility and the Canadian Term Loan B Facility (a) until
August 7, 2005, 2.00% per annum in the case of Eurocurrency Rate advances and
with respect to U.S. Dollar Term Loan B Facility only, 1.00% per annum in the
case of Base Rate advances and (b) thereafter, a percentage per annum to be
determined in accordance with a pricing grid based on debt ratings, (ii) with
respect to the Euro Term Loan B Facility, 2.50% per annum, and (iii) with
respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, (a) until August 7, 2005, 2.25% per
annum in the case of Eurocurrency Rate advances and in the case of advances
made in U.S. dollars only, 1.25% per annum in the case of Base Rate advances
and (b) thereafter, a percentage per annum to be determined in accordance with
a pricing grid based on the Leverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement
pertaining to the Senior Credit Facility). Each Swing Line Loan denominated in
U.S. dollars shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin
for Base Rate advances under the Revolving Credit Facilities. Each Swing Line
Loan denominated in either Euros or Pounds Sterling shall bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to the rate of interest at which deposits having a term
of one day in the applicable currency would be offered to major banks in the
London interbank market, plus the Applicable Margin for the Revolving Credit
Facilities.

The Company and the foreign borrowers are required to pay a quarterly
commitment fee on the Revolving Credit Facilities that equal 0.50% times the
amount by which the aggregate revolving credit commitments exceeds the sum of
(a) the outstanding revolving credit loans and (b) the outstanding amounts of
the dollar letter of credit commitments. A quarterly letter of credit fee
equal to the Applicable Margin on Revolving Credit LIBOR Advances (as defined
in the credit agreement pertaining to the Senior Credit Facility) times the
amount available to be drawn under the letters of credit is also payable on
the stated amount of outstanding letters of credit.


                                      4
<PAGE>

The term loan facilities are subject to repayment according to a scheduled
amortization, with the final payment of all amounts outstanding, plus accrued
and unpaid interest, due on February 6, 2012. The Revolving Credit Facility
will terminate on February 6, 2011.

Beginning with the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, the Senior Credit
Facility provides for annual mandatory prepayments, over and above the normal
amortization as a result of "Excess Cash Flow" (as defined, less certain
operating expenditures including scheduled principal payments of long-term
debt). The Senior Credit Facility also provides for other mandatory
prepayments as a result of issuance of debt (excluding certain permitted
indebtedness) and sales of certain assets above an annual threshold.

The Senior Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's
domestic assets and certain of its foreign assets pursuant to a security
agreement (the "Security Agreement") made by the Company and certain of its
subsidiaries on February 7, 2005, which secures the domestic obligations of
the Senior Credit Facility, as well as certain share charges made by certain
foreign subsidiaries on February 7, 2005, which secure the obligations of the
foreign borrowers. The Company's obligations under the Senior Credit Facility
are guaranteed by certain of the Company's subsidiaries, including all of the
Company's domestic subsidiaries, pursuant to a guarantee executed by those
subsidiaries on February 7, 2005 (the "ROV Guaranty"). Similarly, the
obligations of the foreign borrowers are secured by certain guarantees made by
the foreign borrowers and certain of their subsidiaries pursuant to two
guarantees executed by those subsidiaries on February 7, 2005 (the "KGaA
Guaranty" and "UK Guaranty").

The Senior Credit Facility contains financial covenants with respect to debt
which include maintaining minimum interest and maximum leverage ratios. In
accordance with the agreement, the limits imposed by such ratios become more
restrictive over time. In addition, the agreement restricts the Company's
ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make investments or
specified payments, give guarantees, pay dividends, make capital expenditures
and merge or acquire or sell assets.

The Senior Credit Facility contains customary events of default, including,
without limitation, payment defaults, breaches of representations and
warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults to similar obligations, certain
events of bankruptcy and insolvency, judgment defaults, failure of any
guaranty or security document supporting the agreement to be in full force and
effect, change of control and customary ERISA defaults. If an event of default
occurs and is continuing, amounts due under the Senior Credit Facility may be
accelerated and the rights and remedies of the lenders under the Senior Credit
Facility available under the applicable loan-related documents may be
exercised, including rights with respect to the collateral securing
obligations under the Senior Credit Facility.

Registration Rights Agreement relating to the Notes
In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into a
registration rights agreement, dated February 7, 2005 (the "Registration
Rights Agreement"), by and between the Company, certain of the Company's
domestic subsidiaries and the initial purchasers of the Notes. Under the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agreed, among other things, to (i)
file an


                                      5
<PAGE>

exchange offer registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") with respect to the Notes within 120 days after February 7,
2005, (ii) use reasonable best efforts to have such exchange offer
registration statement declared effective by the SEC within 240 days after
February 7, 2005, (iii) commence an exchange offer upon effectiveness of the
exchange offer registration statement and (iv) cause the exchange offer to be
consummated no later than 30 business days after the exchange offer
registration statement becomes effective. Under certain circumstances, the
Company has agreed to file a shelf registration statement with the SEC with
respect to the resale of the Notes. If the Company does not comply with these
obligations, subject to limitations set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement, the Company will be required to pay additional interest in an
amount equal to a per annum rate of 0.25% on the principal amount of the Notes
for the first 90 days following default. Thereafter, the amount of interest
will increase by an additional per annum rate of 0.25% on the principal amount
of the Notes for each subsequent 90-day period until all registration defaults
have been cured, up to a maximum amount of additional interest for all
registration defaults of 1.00% per annum on the principal amount of the Notes.

Registration Rights Agreement relating to the United acquisition
On February 7, 2005, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement
(the "Acquisition Registration Rights Agreement") with certain former
stockholders of United, including certain affiliates of Thomas H. Lee
Partners, L.P. and an affiliate of Banc of America Securities LLC, pursuant to
which the Company has agreed to prepare and file with the SEC, not later than
nine months following the consummation of the acquisition of United on
February 7, 2005, a registration statement to permit the public offering and
resale under the Securities Act of 1933 on a continuous basis of shares of the
Company's common stock issued in connection with its acquisition of United
(the "Shelf Registration Statement"). Pursuant to the Acquisition Registration
Rights Agreement, the Company will also grant to the former stockholders of
United certain rights to require the Company, on not more than three
occasions, to amend the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and file a new
registration statement to permit an underwritten offering of shares of the
Company's stock received by them in the acquisition of United as well as
certain rights to include those shares in any registration statement proposed
to be filed by the Company. In addition, the Acquisition Registration Rights
Agreement prohibits those former stockholders party to the agreement from
selling or transferring shares of the Company's common stock received in the
acquisition of United for 12 months following the consummation of that
acquisition or from selling or transferring more than 50% of those shares
during the 18 month period following the consummation of that acquisition.

Standstill Agreement
On February 7, 2005, the Company entered into a standstill agreement (the
"Standstill Agreement") with Thomas H. Lee Equity Fund IV, L.P., THL Equity
Advisors IV, LLC, Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. and Thomas H. Lee Advisors,
L.L.C. (the "Restricted Parties"). Pursuant to the Standstill Agreement, the
Restricted Parties are prohibited until February 7, 2010 from acquiring
ownership in excess of 28% of the Company's outstanding voting capital stock,
on a fully-diluted basis, soliciting proxies or consents with respect to the
Company's voting capital stock, soliciting or encouraging third parties to
acquire or seek to acquire the Company, a significant portion of the Company's
assets or more than 5% of the Company's outstanding voting capital stock or
joining or participating in a pooling agreement, syndicate, voting trust or
other similar arrangement with respect to the Company's voting capital stock
for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of such voting
capital stock.

The foregoing descriptions of the Indenture, the Third Supplemental Indenture,
the Senior Credit Facility, the Security Agreement, the ROV Guaranty, the KGaA
Guaranty, the UK Guaranty, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Acquisition
Registration Rights Agreement and the Standstill Agreement do not purport to
be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text
of those agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2, 10.1,
10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 4.3, 10.6 and 10.7, respectively, to this Current
Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.01. COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

On February 7, 2005, the Company acquired all of the equity interests of
United pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the "Merger
Agreement") by and among the Company, Lindbergh Corporation and United dated
as of January 3, 2005 filed as an exhibit to the Current Report on Form 8-K
filed by the Company on January 4, 2005. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger
Agreement, Lindbergh Corporation merged with and into United, with United
continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Merger"). The total merger
consideration consisted of 13.75 million shares of the Company's common stock
and approximately $70 million in cash.


                                      7
<PAGE>

The cash portion of the merger consideration relating to the acquisition of
United was financed from the proceeds of the sale of the Notes and from the
Senior Credit Facility, both described in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on
Form 8-K.

In connection with the acquisition of United, and pursuant to the
shareholder's agreement entered into by the Company and a former shareholder
of United (which shareholder was affiliated with Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P.)
in connection with the Merger (which shareholder's agreement was filed as an
exhibit to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 4, 2005),
the Company increased the size of its Board of Directors from eight to ten
members. Scott A. Schoen and Charles A. Brizius, both of Thomas H. Lee
Partners, L.P., have been appointed as the new members of the Company's Board
of Directors. Mr. Schoen is Co-President and Mr. Brizius is Managing Director
of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. In addition, Robert L. Caulk, Chief Executive
Officer of United, will become a member of Rayovac's Executive Committee.

David A. Jones, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company, and trusts for his family members, collectively owned 202,935 shares
of United common stock as of immediately prior to the Merger, which shares
were converted into an aggregate of 36,239 shares of Company common stock
pursuant to the Merger. In addition, Mr. Jones held vested options to acquire
397,065 shares of United common stock at a weighted average exercise price of
$2.00 per share, which, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, were
cashed out in an amount equal to the number of shares underlying options
having an exercise price less than $5.997 per share multiplied by the amount
by which $5.997 exceeded the relevant option exercise price. Mr. Jones was a
member of the Board of Directors of United from January 20, 1999 to December
31, 2003 and provided consulting services to United under an agreement that
was terminated on September 28, 2004. Thomas R. Shepherd, a member of the
Company's Board of Directors, is an investor in Thomas H. Lee Equity Fund IV,
L.P, a large shareholder of United immediately prior to the Merger, and, as a
result of the Merger, currently is a large shareholder of Rayovac. The
Company's Board of Directors established an independent committee of the Board
of Directors, which did not include Mr. Jones or Mr. Shepherd, to evaluate,
negotiate and approve the terms of the acquisition of United.

           (d)

On February 7, 2005, Scott A. Schoen and Charles A. Brizius were appointed as
members of the Company's Board of Directors. Mr. Schoen and Mr. Brizius were
appointed pursuant to the shareholder's agreement (the "Shareholder's
Agreement") by and between the Company and UIC Holdings, L.L.C. ("Holdings")
dated as of January 3, 2005, which was filed as an exhibit to the Current
Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on January 4, 2005. On January 14,
2005, Holdings merged with and into United. As permitted by the Shareholder's
Agreement, Holdings assigned its rights and obligations under the
Shareholder's Agreement to Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. or its affiliates
("THL"). Pursuant to the Shareholder's Agreement, the Company will allow THL
to include on any slate of directors presented to the Company's stockholders
for election at the appropriate meeting of stockholders, to be approved by the
Company's nominating committee, up to two directors on the Company's Board of
Directors for so long as THL owns at least 15% of the Company's issued and
outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis, and one director for so
long as THL owns at least 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding common
stock on a fully-diluted basis.

United previously had a professional services agreement with certain
affiliates of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. pursuant to which the Company paid
$62,500 per month for management and other consulting services and reimbursed
out-of-pocket expenses. In connection with the Merger, the professional
services agreement was terminated effective as of the Merger. Messrs. Schoen
and Brizius are members of Thomas H. Lee Advisors, LLC, which is the general
partner of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P., which is the manager of THL Equity
Advisors IV, LLC, which, in turn, is the general partner of each of the Thomas
H. Lee related funds that were shareholders of United immediately prior to the

Item 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

New Indenture
On February 7, 2005, Rayovac Corporation (the "Company") and certain of its
domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into an Indenture (the
"Indenture") with U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, relating to the
issuance by the Company of $700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7 3/8%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015 (the "Notes"). The Notes were sold in a
private transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"), and have not been and will not
be registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the
United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act.

The Notes bear an interest rate of 7 3/8% per annum and will be payable
semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1, commencing on August 1,
2005. The Company will make each interest payment to the holders of record on
the immediately preceding January 15 and July 15. The Notes are general
unsecured obligations of the Company. They are subordinated in right of
payment to all existing and future senior debt of the Company, including the
indebtedness of the Company under its senior credit facilities. The Notes are
pari passu in right of payment with all existing and any future senior
subordinated indebtedness of the Company and are senior in right of payment to
any future subordinated indebtedness of the Company.

The terms of the Notes are governed by the Indenture. The Indenture contains
customary covenants that limit the Company's ability to, among other things,
incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends on or redeem or repurchase the
Company's equity interests, make certain investments, expand into unrelated
businesses, create liens on assets, merge or consolidate with another company,
transfer or sell all or substantially all of the Company's assets, and enter
into transactions with affiliates. Upon the occurrence of a "change of
control," as defined in the Indenture, the Company is required to make an
offer to repurchase the outstanding Notes at 101% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

Beginning on February 1, 2010, the Company may redeem all or a part of the
Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at redemption
prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) of 101.229%, 102.458%
and 103.688% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest
and any applicable liquidated damages, for redemptions occurring during the
twelve-month period beginning on February 1 of 2012, 2011, and 2010,
respectively. Thereafter, the redemption price is 100.000% of the principal
amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and any
applicable liquidated damages. Prior to February 1, 2008, the Company may
redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes at a redemption
price of 107.375% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest and any applicable liquidated damages, with the net cash proceeds
from certain equity offerings of the Company.

The Indenture is subject to customary events of default, including failure to
make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or
covenants, failure to pay or acceleration of certain other indebtedness, and
certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Events of default

                                      2
under the Indenture arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency
will automatically cause the acceleration of the amounts due under the Notes.
If any other event of default under the Indenture occurs and is continuing,
the Trustee or the registered holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the acceleration of the
amounts due under the Notes.

The net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with borrowings
under the Company's new senior credit facilities, were used to finance the
acquisition of United Industries Corporation ("United"), to retire United's
then existing indebtedness and the Company's former senior credit facilities,
and to pay related fees and expenses.

Supplement to Existing Indenture
On February 7, 2005, the Company, U.S. Bank National Association and certain
subsidiaries of the Company entered into the Third Supplemental Indenture (the
"Third Supplemental Indenture") to the Indenture (the "2003 Indenture") dated
as of September 30, 2003 (as previously supplemented) governing the Company's
8 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013. The Third Supplemental Indenture
added United and certain of its subsidiaries as guarantors under the 2003
Indenture, removed Lindbergh Corporation, whose corporate existence was
terminated in connection with the Company's acquisition of United, as a
guarantor under the 2003 Indenture and corrected certain cross-references
contained in the 2003 Indenture.

New Credit Agreement, Security Agreement and Guarantees
On February 7, 2005, the Company, as the U.S. Borrower, the Subsidiary
Borrowers named therein, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing
Line Lender and L/C Issuer, Citicorp North America, Inc., as Syndication
Agent, Merrill Lynch Capital Corporation, as Documentation Agent and as
Managing Agent, the other lenders party thereto, Banc of America Securities
LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as Joint Lead Arrangers, and Banc of
America Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Merrill Lynch,
Pierce, Fenner & Smith, as Joint Book Managers, entered into the Fourth
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Senior Credit Facility"), which
amended and restated the Company's preexisting credit agreement relating to
its preexisting senior credit facilities. The Senior Credit Facility provides
the opportunity to borrow in domestic and foreign currencies through various
term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities in an initial aggregate
amount of $1.03 billion. The Senior Credit Facility includes aggregate term
loan facilities of $730 million consisting of a $540 million U.S. Dollar Term
Loan B Facility, U.S. $140 million Euro Term Loan B Facility and U.S. $50
million Canadian Dollar Term Loan B Facility. The Senior Credit Facility also
includes $300 million revolving credit facilities allowing for U.S. Dollar,
Euro and Pounds Sterling borrowings (the "Revolving Credit Facilities"), each
of which will be available from February 7, 2005 until the earliest of (a)
February 6, 2011, (b) voluntary termination by the borrowers or (c)
termination as a result of an event of default under the Credit Agreement
(together, the "Maturity Date"). The Revolving Credit Facilities include
sublimits for swing line loans ("Swing Line Loans") denominated in U.S.
dollars, Euros and Pounds Sterling equal to the lesser of U.S.$15,000,000 and
the amount currently available under the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility for
borrowings in U.S. dollars; the lesser of the U.S. dollar equivalent of
(euro)5,000,000 and the amount currently available under the Euro Revolving
Credit Facility for borrowings in Euros, and the lesser of the U.S. dollar
equivalent of (pound)5,000,000 and the amount currently available under the UK
Revolving Credit Facility for borrowings in Pounds Sterling.

                                      3
The Company is the U.S. borrower under the Senior Credit Facility and certain
of its subsidiaries, namely Varta Consumer Batteries GmbH & Co. KGaA and
Rayovac Europe Limited are foreign borrowers. At any time, and from time to
time before the Maturity Date, the Company can request up to five additional
incremental term loan facilities in U.S. dollars, Euros or with the consent of
the Administrative Agent, other foreign currencies, all in an aggregate amount
up to $500 million. The Company may add additional foreign borrowers from time
to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent.

The interest and fees per annum are calculated on a 365-day (or 366-day, as
the case may be) basis for Base Rate (as defined below) loans and loans
denominated in Pounds Sterling. For all other denominations, interest and fees
per annum are calculated on the basis of a 360-day year. The interest rates
per annum applicable to the Senior Credit Facility (other than in respect of
Swing Line Loans) are the Eurocurrency Rate plus the Applicable Margin (as
defined below) or, at the Company's option in the case of advances made in
U.S. dollars, the base rate (which is the higher of (x) the Bank of America
prime rate and (y) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% (the "Base Rate")) plus
the Applicable Margin. Applicable Margin means, (i) with respect to the U.S.
Dollar Term Loan B Facility and the Canadian Term Loan B Facility (a) until
August 7, 2005, 2.00% per annum in the case of Eurocurrency Rate advances and
with respect to U.S. Dollar Term Loan B Facility only, 1.00% per annum in the
case of Base Rate advances and (b) thereafter, a percentage per annum to be
determined in accordance with a pricing grid based on debt ratings, (ii) with
respect to the Euro Term Loan B Facility, 2.50% per annum, and (iii) with
respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, (a) until August 7, 2005, 2.25% per
annum in the case of Eurocurrency Rate advances and in the case of advances
made in U.S. dollars only, 1.25% per annum in the case of Base Rate advances
and (b) thereafter, a percentage per annum to be determined in accordance with
a pricing grid based on the Leverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement
pertaining to the Senior Credit Facility). Each Swing Line Loan denominated in
U.S. dollars shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin
for Base Rate advances under the Revolving Credit Facilities. Each Swing Line
Loan denominated in either Euros or Pounds Sterling shall bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to the rate of interest at which deposits having a term
of one day in the applicable currency would be offered to major banks in the
London interbank market, plus the Applicable Margin for the Revolving Credit
Facilities.

The Company and the foreign borrowers are required to pay a quarterly
commitment fee on the Revolving Credit Facilities that equal 0.50% times the
amount by which the aggregate revolving credit commitments exceeds the sum of
(a) the outstanding revolving credit loans and (b) the outstanding amounts of
the dollar letter of credit commitments. A quarterly letter of credit fee
equal to the Applicable Margin on Revolving Credit LIBOR Advances (as defined
in the credit agreement pertaining to the Senior Credit Facility) times the
amount available to be drawn under the letters of credit is also payable on
the stated amount of outstanding letters of credit.

                                      4
The term loan facilities are subject to repayment according to a scheduled
amortization, with the final payment of all amounts outstanding, plus accrued
and unpaid interest, due on February 6, 2012. The Revolving Credit Facility
will terminate on February 6, 2011.

Beginning with the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, the Senior Credit
Facility provides for annual mandatory prepayments, over and above the normal
amortization as a result of "Excess Cash Flow" (as defined, less certain
operating expenditures including scheduled principal payments of long-term
debt). The Senior Credit Facility also provides for other mandatory
prepayments as a result of issuance of debt (excluding certain permitted
indebtedness) and sales of certain assets above an annual threshold.

The Senior Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's
domestic assets and certain of its foreign assets pursuant to a security
agreement (the "Security Agreement") made by the Company and certain of its
subsidiaries on February 7, 2005, which secures the domestic obligations of
the Senior Credit Facility, as well as certain share charges made by certain
foreign subsidiaries on February 7, 2005, which secure the obligations of the
foreign borrowers. The Company's obligations under the Senior Credit Facility
are guaranteed by certain of the Company's subsidiaries, including all of the
Company's domestic subsidiaries, pursuant to a guarantee executed by those
subsidiaries on February 7, 2005 (the "ROV Guaranty"). Similarly, the
obligations of the foreign borrowers are secured by certain guarantees made by
the foreign borrowers and certain of their subsidiaries pursuant to two
guarantees executed by those subsidiaries on February 7, 2005 (the "KGaA
Guaranty" and "UK Guaranty").

The Senior Credit Facility contains financial covenants with respect to debt
which include maintaining minimum interest and maximum leverage ratios. In
accordance with the agreement, the limits imposed by such ratios become more
restrictive over time. In addition, the agreement restricts the Company's
ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make investments or
specified payments, give guarantees, pay dividends, make capital expenditures
and merge or acquire or sell assets.

The Senior Credit Facility contains customary events of default, including,
without limitation, payment defaults, breaches of representations and
warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults to similar obligations, certain
events of bankruptcy and insolvency, judgment defaults, failure of any
guaranty or security document supporting the agreement to be in full force and
effect, change of control and customary ERISA defaults. If an event of default
occurs and is continuing, amounts due under the Senior Credit Facility may be
accelerated and the rights and remedies of the lenders under the Senior Credit
Facility available under the applicable loan-related documents may be
exercised, including rights with respect to the collateral securing
obligations under the Senior Credit Facility.

Registration Rights Agreement relating to the Notes
In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into a
registration rights agreement, dated February 7, 2005 (the "Registration
Rights Agreement"), by and between the Company, certain of the Company's
domestic subsidiaries and the initial purchasers of the Notes. Under the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agreed, among other things, to (i)
file an

                                      5
exchange offer registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") with respect to the Notes within 120 days after February 7,
2005, (ii) use reasonable best efforts to have such exchange offer
registration statement declared effective by the SEC within 240 days after
February 7, 2005, (iii) commence an exchange offer upon effectiveness of the
exchange offer registration statement and (iv) cause the exchange offer to be
consummated no later than 30 business days after the exchange offer
registration statement becomes effective. Under certain circumstances, the
Company has agreed to file a shelf registration statement with the SEC with
respect to the resale of the Notes. If the Company does not comply with these
obligations, subject to limitations set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement, the Company will be required to pay additional interest in an
amount equal to a per annum rate of 0.25% on the principal amount of the Notes
for the first 90 days following default. Thereafter, the amount of interest
will increase by an additional per annum rate of 0.25% on the principal amount
of the Notes for each subsequent 90-day period until all registration defaults
have been cured, up to a maximum amount of additional interest for all
registration defaults of 1.00% per annum on the principal amount of the Notes.

Registration Rights Agreement relating to the United acquisition
On February 7, 2005, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement
(the "Acquisition Registration Rights Agreement") with certain former
stockholders of United, including certain affiliates of Thomas H. Lee
Partners, L.P. and an affiliate of Banc of America Securities LLC, pursuant to
which the Company has agreed to prepare and file with the SEC, not later than
nine months following the consummation of the acquisition of United on
February 7, 2005, a registration statement to permit the public offering and
resale under the Securities Act of 1933 on a continuous basis of shares of the
Company's common stock issued in connection with its acquisition of United
(the "Shelf Registration Statement"). Pursuant to the Acquisition Registration
Rights Agreement, the Company will also grant to the former stockholders of
United certain rights to require the Company, on not more than three
occasions, to amend the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and file a new
registration statement to permit an underwritten offering of shares of the
Company's stock received by them in the acquisition of United as well as
certain rights to include those shares in any registration statement proposed
to be filed by the Company. In addition, the Acquisition Registration Rights
Agreement prohibits those former stockholders party to the agreement from
selling or transferring shares of the Company's common stock received in the
acquisition of United for 12 months following the consummation of that
acquisition or from selling or transferring more than 50% of those shares
during the 18 month period following the consummation of that acquisition.

Standstill Agreement
On February 7, 2005, the Company entered into a standstill agreement (the
"Standstill Agreement") with Thomas H. Lee Equity Fund IV, L.P., THL Equity
Advisors IV, LLC, Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. and Thomas H. Lee Advisors,
L.L.C. (the "Restricted Parties"). Pursuant to the Standstill Agreement, the
Restricted Parties are prohibited until February 7, 2010 from acquiring
ownership in excess of 28% of the Company's outstanding voting capital stock,
on a fully-diluted basis, soliciting proxies or consents with respect to the
Company's voting capital stock, soliciting or encouraging third parties to
acquire or seek to acquire the Company, a significant portion of the Company's
assets or more than 5% of the Company's outstanding voting capital stock or
joining or participating in a pooling agreement, syndicate, voting trust or
other similar arrangement with respect to the Company's voting capital stock
for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of such voting
capital stock.

Item 2.01. COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

On February 7, 2005, the Company acquired all of the equity interests of
United pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the "Merger
Agreement") by and among the Company, Lindbergh Corporation and United dated
as of January 3, 2005 filed as an exhibit to the Current Report on Form 8-K
filed by the Company on January 4, 2005. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger
Agreement, Lindbergh Corporation merged with and into United, with United
continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Merger"). The total merger
consideration consisted of 13.75 million shares of the Company's common stock
and approximately $70 million in cash.

                                      7
The cash portion of the merger consideration relating to the acquisition of
United was financed from the proceeds of the sale of the Notes and from the
Senior Credit Facility, both described in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on
Form 8-K.

In connection with the acquisition of United, and pursuant to the
shareholder's agreement entered into by the Company and a former shareholder
of United (which shareholder was affiliated with Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P.)
in connection with the Merger (which shareholder's agreement was filed as an
exhibit to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 4, 2005),
the Company increased the size of its Board of Directors from eight to ten
members. Scott A. Schoen and Charles A. Brizius, both of Thomas H. Lee
Partners, L.P., have been appointed as the new members of the Company's Board
of Directors. Mr. Schoen is Co-President and Mr. Brizius is Managing Director
of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. In addition, Robert L. Caulk, Chief Executive
Officer of United, will become a member of Rayovac's Executive Committee.

David A. Jones, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company, and trusts for his family members, collectively owned 202,935 shares
of United common stock as of immediately prior to the Merger, which shares
were converted into an aggregate of 36,239 shares of Company common stock
pursuant to the Merger. In addition, Mr. Jones held vested options to acquire
397,065 shares of United common stock at a weighted average exercise price of
$2.00 per share, which, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, were
cashed out in an amount equal to the number of shares underlying options
having an exercise price less than $5.997 per share multiplied by the amount
by which $5.997 exceeded the relevant option exercise price. Mr. Jones was a
member of the Board of Directors of United from January 20, 1999 to December
31, 2003 and provided consulting services to United under an agreement that
was terminated on September 28, 2004. Thomas R. Shepherd, a member of the
Company's Board of Directors, is an investor in Thomas H. Lee Equity Fund IV,
L.P, a large shareholder of United immediately prior to the Merger, and, as a
result of the Merger, currently is a large shareholder of Rayovac. The
Company's Board of Directors established an independent committee of the Board
of Directors, which did not include Mr. Jones or Mr. Shepherd, to evaluate,
negotiate and approve the terms of the acquisition of United.

to include on any slate of directors presented to the Company's stockholders

$62,500 per month for management and other consulting services and reimbursed
out-of-pocket expenses. In connection with the Merger, the professional
