W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have entered into a 364-Day Credit Agreement dated April 30, 2002 (the Original Agreement) pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to make loans to the Borrower in the aggregate principal amount of up to $100,000,000 as evidenced by the Notes (as defined in the Agreement); and
WHEREAS, on the effective date of this Amendment Agreement the Administrative Agent and certain of the Lenders are changing their respective Commitments and other Lenders are reallocating all or portions of their respective Commitment to other Lenders; and
WHEREAS, as a condition to making the loans Dart and Tupperware Finance have guaranteed payment of the Obligations pursuant to a Guaranty Agreement dated April 30, 2002 (the Facility Guaranty); and
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Original Agreement be amended in the manner described herein and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to make such amendment, as provided herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders do hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions. The term Agreement as used herein and in the Loan Documents (as defined in the Agreement) shall mean the Original Agreement as herein and hereinafter amended and modified. Unless the context otherwise requires, all terms used herein without definition shall have the definition provided therefor in the Agreement.
2. Amendment. Subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Agreement is hereby amended effective April 28, 2003, as follows:
(a) The definition of Maturity Date in Section 1.1 is hereby amended, by deleting the date April 28, 2003 appearing in clause (a) and inserting in lieu thereof the date April 27, 2004.
1
(b) Schedule 2.01 is hereby amended in its entirety so that such Schedule is in the form of Schedule 2.01 attached to this Amendment Agreement.
(c) Schedule 10.02 is hereby amended in its entirety so that such Schedule is in the form of Schedule 10.02 attached to this Amendment Agreement.
3. Commitments, Notes and Reallocation.
(a) The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that the Commitments of each Lender shall be the amount set forth in Schedule 2.01 attached hereto, which reflects changes from the Original Agreement.
(b) Effective as of April 28, 2003 those Lenders party to the Original Agreement whose Commitment is being terminated or decreased shall be deemed to have assigned, without recourse, to Lenders increasing their Commitment such portion of the terminating or decreasing Lenders Loans as shall be necessary to effectuate the adjustments in Commitments and Loans resulting in the new Commitments and Pro Rata Shares described in Schedule 2.01 attached to this Amendment Agreement. Each Lender increasing its Commitment shall be deemed by execution of this Amendment Agreement to have assumed its Pro Rata Shares of Loans and shall pay to each other terminating or decreasing Lender, or, at its request, to the Administrative Agent for payment to the terminating or decreasing Lenders the amount of Loans assigned to it by such terminating or decreasing Lenders. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lenders on demand any and all amounts to the extent payable pursuant to Section 3.05 as a result of any such prepayment of Committed Loans occasioned by the reallocation of Commitments.

(a) The representations and warranties made by the Borrower in Article V of the Original Agreement are true on and as of the date hereof;
(b) There has been no material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries since the date of the most recent financial reports of the Borrower received by each Lender under Section 6.01 thereof, other than changes in the ordinary course of business, none of which has a Material Adverse Effect;
(c) The business and properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are not and have not been adversely affected in any substantial way as the result of any fire, explosion, earthquake, accident, strike, lockout, combination of workers, flood, embargo, riot, activities of armed forces, war or acts of God or the public enemy, or cancellation or loss of any major contracts; and
(d) No event has occurred and no condition exists which, upon the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby, constitutes a Default or an Event of Default on the part of the Borrower under the Original Agreement, the Notes or any
2
other Loan Document either immediately or with the lapse of time or the giving of notice, or both.
5. Conditions. This Amendment Agreement shall become effective upon (i) the Borrower delivering to the Administrative Agent twelve (12) counterparts of this Amendment Agreement duly executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, (ii) receipt of an opinion of counsel for the Borrower in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (iii) resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Borrower authorizing the transaction contemplated hereby, (iv) receipt by the Administrative Agent of all fees and expenses due in connection with this Amendment Agreement and (v) receipt of executed counterparts of this Amendment Agreement from the Lenders (other than the Lender terminating its Commitment).
