ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF
CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND
MANAGEMENT AND RELATED
STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The following table sets forth information regarding benefi cial
ownership of our Common Stock as of December 4, 2006, by:
each person who is known by us to benefi cially own more
than 5% of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock
(each, a “5% Shareholder”);
our Chief Executive Offi cer and each of the other four
most highly compensated executive offi cers serving as of
September 30, 2006;
each of our directors; and
all of our directors and executive offi cers as a group.
Benefi cial ownership is determined in accordance with the
rules of the SEC. Determinations as to the identity of 5%
Shareholders is based upon fi lings with the SEC and other pub-
licly available information. Except as otherwise indicated, we
believe, based on the information furnished or otherwise avail-
able to us, that each person or entity named in the table has sole
voting and investment power with respect to all shares of
Common Stock shown as benefi cially owned by them, subject to
applicable community property laws. The percentage of benefi -
cial ownership set forth below is based upon 52,474,049 shares
of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the close of busi-
ness on December 4, 2006. In computing the number of shares of
Common Stock benefi cially owned by a person and the percentage
ownership of that person, shares of Common Stock that are subject
to options held by that person that are currently exercisable or
exercisable within 60 days of December 4, 2006, are deemed out-
standing. These shares are not, however, deemed outstanding for
the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other
person. Unless otherwise noted below, the address of each benefi -
cial owner listed in the table is c/o Spectrum Brands, Inc.,
6 Concourse Parkway, Suite 3300, Atlanta, Georgia 30328.
