(1) In connection with a merger (the "Merger"), pursuant to which Spectrum Brands Legacy, Inc. (f/k/a Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc.) became a direct subsidiary of the Issuer, each share of common stock of the Issuer (the "Issuer Shares") was combined into 0.1613 Issuer Shares as a result of a reverse stock split (the "Reverse Stock Split").
(2) The employee stock options reported on this line are vested and exercisable.
(3) The options reported on this line expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant, except as set forth in the Separation and Release Agreement, dated as of November 28, 2016, by and between HRG Group, Inc. (predecessor to the Issuer) and the reporting person (as filed as Exhibit 10.2 to Amendment No.1 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed January 27, 2017).
(4) The exercise price of each employee stock option held by the reporting person was recalculated in connection with the Merger. The pre-Merger exercise prices were divided by the Reverse Stock Split ratio of 0.1613.
