 March 9, 2007 
 Dear Desiree:

 This letter agreement and release (the “Agreement”) confirms the agreement entered into between you and your Employer regarding
your voluntary separation from the Company and termination of your employment effective March 9, 2007 (“Termination Date”), and explains the package of separation pay and benefits that has been specially developed for you in
consideration of a fully bargained for release and settlement of any and all claims that you have presently, may have or have had in the past arising from your employment with and termination of your employment from the Employer up to and including
the Effective Date of this Agreement. Additionally, pursuant to this Agreement, you are releasing all claims against the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Employer” shall mean Jarden Corporation. The term
“Company” shall mean the Employer and any of its subsidiary corporations, affiliates, divisions, and business units. “Effective Date” is defined in Section 16. 
 1. CONSIDERATION IN SETTLEMENT. You acknowledge that no representations of any kind have been made by the Employer to induce your execution of
this Agreement and that the only representations made to you in order to obtain your consent to this Agreement are as stated herein. Accordingly, if you execute (and do not revoke) this Agreement, you will receive: 
 (a) CONTINUATION OF MEDICAL AND/OR DENTAL INSURANCE BENEFITS. If you elect to continue coverage pursuant to the Employer’s
medical and/or dental insurance benefit plans as in effect and amended from time to time, pursuant to the provisions of COBRA as described in (b) below, your continued participation will be at the contribution level in effect for active
employees until the earlier of (i) the end of twelve months after the Termination Date (the “Coverage Period”), (ii) you become eligible for Medicare, or (iii) you become eligible for coverage under medical and/or dental
insurance benefit plans, as the case may be, of another employer through future employment. You are also eligible to continue your participation in the Employer’s flexible spending accounts on a post-tax basis. 
 (b) COBRA. You may elect COBRA (Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985) continuation of medical and/or dental
coverage for up to eighteen (18) months at a monthly premium equal to 102% of actual plan cost effective as 

  

 Page 1 of 9 

 
of the Termination Date. During the Coverage Period only, if you elect to continue this coverage under the provisions of COBRA, the Employer will pay to you
an amount equal to the employee monthly premium, less applicable withholdings, deductions and offsets, if any, until the earlier of (i) the end of the Coverage Period, (ii) the date you have undertaken new employment, and (iii) the
date you are eligible for coverage under medical and/or dental insurance benefits plans of another employer. Such continuation of coverage under the Coverage Period will count as total time covered under COBRA. Specific costs and details will be
provided to you on a timely basis. 
 (c) OPTIONS/RESTRICTED STOCK. As of the Termination Date, you will be entitled to
the immediate vesting of all unvested options previously granted to you by the Company that would by their terms necessarily vest within one (1) year from the Termination Date if your employment with Jarden continued during such period. You
will have one (1) year from the Termination Date to exercise any such stock options vested as of the Termination Date. As a consultant, during the term of the Consulting Agreement (as defined herein) you will continue to be an eligible
participant in the Jarden Corporation Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Plan for the purpose of restricted stock awards and will be eligible for the lapsing of restrictions as to restricted stock granted to you prior to the date of this
Agreement in accordance with the terms of that plan and the applicable restricted stock agreement(s). 
 2. OTHER BENEFIT PLANS.
Effective as of the Termination Date, you acknowledge that you are no longer eligible to participate in any of the Employer’s other benefit plans including, but not limited to the Employer’s 401(k) plan (the “401(k) Plan”).

 3. VACATION. As of the Termination Date, no further vacation shall accrue. You will not be paid for any unused vacation remaining
at the time of your termination. 
 4. ELECTION. The acceptance of compensation and benefits available under this Agreement shall
constitute a waiver of any severance pay to which you may have been entitled. 
 5. RETURN OF EMPLOYER AND COMPANY PROPERTY. You
acknowledge that prior to receipt of any compensation and/or benefits as described in this Agreement, you will return all Employer and Company property which is in your possession. Such property includes, but is not limited to office keys, credit
cards, computer discs and software, printers, fax machines, all documents, files and other information of the Employer and Company, whether or not the property constitutes confidential information or trade secrets, and other related Employer and
Company books, equipment or records. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may keep your Company-issued lap-top computer and blackberry handheld device. 
 6. REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES. The Employer shall reimburse you for any and all business expenses for which you are entitled to reimbursement under the 

  

 Page 2 of 9 

 
Employer’s expense reimbursement policies and procedures in effect on the date hereof. All expenses for reimbursement shall be submitted within thirty
(30) days from the date of this Agreement, and the Employer shall process such expenses promptly. Any expenses submitted after this thirty (30) day will not be paid. 
 7. NON-DUPLICATION OF BENEFITS. The amount of any payments hereunder shall be reduced on a dollar for dollar basis by any disability, severance,
separation or termination pay benefits that the Employer pays or is required to pay you through insurance or otherwise under any plan or contract or under any federal or state law; provided, however, that any severance payment shall never be less
than two (2) weeks’ base salary, and such amount is acknowledged to be full and adequate consideration for this Agreement. 
 8.
RELEASE. You agree to release and hold harmless (on behalf of yourself and your family, heirs, executors, successors and assigns) now and forever, the Employer and the Company and any of the foregoing entities’ past, present or future
parent and subsidiary corporations, affiliates, divisions, successors and assigns (whether or not incorporated) and any of its past, present or future employees, agents, assigns, officers, directors, shareholders and attorneys whether acting in
their individual or representative capacity from and waive any claim that you have presently, may have or have had in the past, known or unknown, against the Employer and the Company upon or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, from
the beginning of the world to the date of this release, including, without limitation, all claims arising from your employment with, or termination of employment from, the Employer and the Company, or otherwise.

agree that you are not entitled to and shall not receive any further recovery of any kind from the Employer or the Company, and that in the event of any
further proceedings whatsoever based upon any matter released herein, the Employer or the Company shall have no further monetary or other obligation of any kind to you, including any obligation for any costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees
incurred by you or on your behalf. 
 10. RESTRICTIONS. You will not initiate or cause to be initiated on your behalf, any lawsuit or
other legal action against the Employer or the Company seeking personal recovery. You further represent and warrant that neither you, nor any person, organization or entity acting on your behalf, has filed or initiated any complaint, charge, claim
or proceeding against the Employer before any court or other body relating to your employment or the termination thereof (each individually a “Proceeding”). You waive any right you may have to benefit in any manner from any relief (whether
monetary or otherwise) arising out of any past, present or future Proceeding, including any Proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”). You understand that by entering into this Agreement, you will be
limiting the availability of certain remedies that you may have against the Employer and/or the Company and limiting also your ability to pursue certain claims against the Employer and/or the Company. This section shall be administered subject to
any limitations imposed by applicable federal or state law including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act and applicable EEOC regulations. Employer and Company acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this
section do not apply to a legal action initiated by you to enforce the terms of this Agreement. 
 11. FUTURE ASSISTANCE. Upon
request, you agree to provide such assistance and cooperation in any matter relating to your expertise or experience as the Employer may reasonably request including your attendance and truthful testimony where deemed appropriate by the Employer, to
the Employer’s defense or prosecution of any existing or future claims or litigations of which the Employer identifies you as potentially having knowledge. The Employer shall pay you reasonable costs and expenses in connection therewith.

 13. RIGHT

time to determine whether entering into this Agreement is in your best interest and you have read and fully understand the terms set forth in this Agreement. You understand that if you request additional time to review the provisions of this
Agreement, a reasonable extension of time will be granted. 
 15. BREACH OF AGREEMENT/PENALTIES. If you initiate or participate in any
lawsuit or other legal action, as described in Section 10, or if you fail to abide by any of the terms of this Agreement, the Employer may reclaim any amounts paid under this Agreement, without waiving the release granted herein, and terminate
any benefit or payments that are due under the Agreement, in addition to any other remedies it may have. In addition, you shall pay the Employer all of its actual attorneys’ fees and costs incurred resulting from, or incident to, such violation
and you agree to pay such fees and costs within thirty (30) days of the Employer’s written demand. 
 16. REVOCATION AND
EFFECTIVE DATE. This Agreement may be revoked by you within the seven (7) days after the date on which you sign this Agreement and it is received by the Employer. You understand that this Agreement shall not become binding or enforceable
until this seven (7) day period has expired without you having so revoked. This Agreement shall become effective on the eighth (8th) day following your signing of this Agreement (the “Effective Date”) provided that you have not

any information concerning this 

  

 Page 5 of 9 

 
Agreement or the terms thereof or any information concerning the circumstances of your employment with and the termination of your employment from the
Employer or the Company, or any information regarding discussions related to any of the foregoing or make, write, publish, produce or in any way participate in placing into the public domain any statement, opinion or information with respect to any
of the foregoing or which reflects adversely upon or would reasonably impair the reputation or best interests of the Employer or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents or their respective family members. Confidential information does
not include (i) information which is required to be disclosed by court order, subpoena or other judicial process, (ii) information regarding your job responsibilities during your employment with the Employer to prospective employers in
connection with an application for employment, (iii) information regarding the financial terms of this Agreement to your spouse or your tax advisor for purposes of obtaining tax advice provided that such persons are made aware of and agree to

against the compulsory disclosure and permit the Employer to participate with counsel of its choice in any proceeding relating to the compulsory disclosure. You acknowledge that all information, the disclosure of which is prohibited by this section,
is of a confidential and proprietary character and of great value to the Employer and/or the Company. You also acknowledge that, to the extent you had access to and became acquainted with confidential information of the Employer and/or the Company,
any subsequent employment with a competitor of the Employer during the period set forth in Section 19 hereof would inevitably result in a prohibited disclosure of confidential information.

associated with, any other corporation, partnership, proprietorship, firm, association or other business entity, or otherwise engage in competition with, perform services for, own an interest in, or otherwise participate in a “Competitive
Business”. This restriction of competition is limited to provision of the same or similar services as those performed by you during your employment with the Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision shall not prohibit you from
performing any services for any entity if such services are performed outside the United States and Canada unless those services were provided outside the United States and Canada during the term of your employment in which case the restriction
shall extend to those geographic areas in comity with those services provided; nor shall it prohibit you from performing any service for any entity if such services are in no way related to any business which is competitive with the business of the
Employer. A “Competitive Business” means the business engaged in by the Employer and all of its direct and indirect subsidiary companies. 
 You further agree that for a period of twelve (12) months following the Termination Date, you shall not, without the prior written consent of the Employer’s Senior Vice President, Human Resources, directly or indirectly

the Employer or any of its direct or indirect subsidiary companies to terminate his or her employment relationship with the Employer or any such subsidiary companies or interfere with any such employment by or association with the Employer or any
such subsidiary companies. 
 20. NON-ADMISSION. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed as an admission of
wrongdoing or liability on the part of the Employer or the Company. 
 21. SEVERABILITY CLAUSE. Should any provision or part of this
Agreement be found to be invalid or unenforceable, only that particular provision or part so found and not the entire agreement shall be inoperative. 
 22. OFFSET. The Employer shall be entitled to offset any sums owed by you to the Employer against the compensation and benefits payable pursuant to Section 1 including, but not limited to, any severance
pay and/or Employer contributions to your medical and/or dental coverage provided to you prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement. 
 23. NO REINSTATEMENT OF EMPLOYMENT OR RE-EMPLOYMENT. You expressly waive any right or claim you may have for reinstatement of employment or re-employment with the Employer and you expressly covenant not to bring any suit or claim
against the Employer should you seek employment with the Employer in the future and be denied such employment. You also agree that this Agreement shall act as a complete bar to your entitlement to any legal, equitable or administrative relief based
upon such denial of employment.

any responsibilities hereunder. 
 25. GOVERNING LAW AND CHOICE OF FORUM. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed pursuant
to, the laws of the State of New York applicable to transactions executed and to be wholly performed in New York between residents thereof, without regard to choice of law principles. The parties consent and agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the Federal and State courts having jurisdiction over New York, New York, for all purposes.
