                           RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

         This AGREEMENT, dated as of the 8th day of May, 2003, by and between
Jarden Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Corporation"), and Ian G.H.
Ashken (the "Restricted Stockholder").

                              W I T N E S S E T H :

         WHEREAS, the Restricted Stockholder is an employee of the Corporation;

         WHEREAS, the Corporation wishes to provide the Restricted Stockholder
with an opportunity to increase his participation in the ownership of the
Corporation and its future growth through the grant of an opportunity to acquire
common stock of the Corporation, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock");
and

         WHEREAS, with respect to the Restricted Stockholder's employment, his
performance can be measured, in part, by the per share stock price of the Common
Stock.

         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. GRANT OF RESTRICTED SHARES. (a) Pursuant to the provisions of the
Jarden Corporation 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), effective as of May
8, 2003 (the "Date of Grant"), the Corporation hereby grants to the Restricted
Stockholder 50,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Restricted Shares"), subject to
all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. As more fully
described below, the Restricted Shares are subject to forfeiture by the
Restricted Stockholder if certain criteria are not satisfied.

                  (b) All capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall
have the meanings given to such terms in the Plan.

         2.       VESTING PERIOD.

                  (a) Vesting. The Restricted Shares shall vest and become
nonforfeitable upon the earlier of:

                    (i) the date that the per share stock price of the Common
                        Stock equals or exceeds forty dollars ($40.00), subject
                        to adjustment pursuant to Section 18.4 of the Plan or as
                        otherwise mutually agreed in writing between the
                        parties; or

                    (ii) the date there is a Change-of-Control Event of the
                        Company.

                  (b) Termination of Employment other than as a Result of Death.
If the Restricted Stockholder's employment with the Corporation is terminated,
other than by the Corporation without Cause or by the death or Disability of the
Restricted Stockholder, prior to the satisfaction of the vesting provisions set
forth in Section 2(a) hereof, no further portion of his or her Restricted Shares
shall become vested pursuant to this Agreement and such unvested Restricted
Shares shall be forfeited effective as of the date that the Restricted
Stockholder's employment with the Corporation is terminated.

                  (c) Termination of Employment as a Result of Death or
Disability. If the Restricted Stockholder ceases to be an employee of the
Corporation because of his or her death or Disability prior to the satisfaction
of the vesting provisions set forth in Section 2 hereof, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Stockholders Agreement or otherwise,
all unvested Restricted Shares shall become vested and nonforfeitable
automatically as of the date of the Restricted Stockholder's death or
Disability.

         3. NON-TRANSFERABILITY. Until the Restricted Shares shall be vested and
until the satisfaction of any and all other conditions specified herein, the
Restricted Shares may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise
encumbered or disposed of by the Restricted Stockholder, except upon the written
consent of the Committee.

         4. NO RIGHT TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT. Nothing in this Agreement shall
confer upon the Restricted Stockholder any right with respect to continuance of
employment by the Corporation, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right
of Corporation to terminate the Restricted Stockholder's employment at any time.
THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT. THIS AGREEMENT DOES
NOT GUARANTEE EMPLOYMENT FOR THE LENGTH OF TIME OF THE VESTING PERIOD OR FOR ANY
PORTION THEREOF.

         5. RESTRICTED STOCKHOLDER BOUND BY PLAN. The Restricted Stockholder
hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all
the terms and provisions thereof. In the event of any conflict between the
provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of
this Agreement shall control. The Restricted Stockholder agrees to accept as
binding, conclusive, and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee
upon any questions arising under the Plan.

         6. SECTION 83(B) ELECTION. If the Restricted Stockholder files an
election with the Internal Revenue Service to include the Fair Market Value of
any Restricted Shares in gross income as of the Date of Grant, the Restricted
Stockholder agrees to promptly furnish the Corporation with a copy of such
election, together with the amount of any federal, state, local or other taxes
required to be withheld to enable the Corporation to claim an income tax
deduction with respect to such election.

         7. RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER. So long as the Restricted Shares are not
forfeited pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof, the Restricted Stockholder shall have
certain rights as

holder of Common Stock with respect to Restricted Shares, including the right to
vote and the right to receive dividends, if any, subject, however to the terms,
conditions, and restrictions described in this Agreement or the Plan.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company will hold the certificate
representing the Restricted Shares awarded until the vesting provisions set
forth in Section 2(a) hereof have been satisfied.

         8. WITHHOLDING TAXES. The Restricted Shares will be subject to any
federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law at the time the
Restricted Shares vest and become nonforfeitable. By accepting the Restricted
Shares, the Restricted Stockholder agrees to satisfy federal, state and local
withholding requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate or
certificates for such Restricted Shares by one of the following methods: (i)
writing a check to the Company equal to the required withholding amount or (ii)
electing, in writing, to have the Company retain a number of Restricted Shares
having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld,
determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be
determined.

         9. NOTICES. Any notice required to be given or delivered to the Company
under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the
