              prepayments with Net Proceeds from the issuance of Indebtedness
              permitted by Section 6.01(m) or 6.01(p), to the extent applicable)
              at and after the Incremental Effective Date, (1) to reduce in
              order of maturity the scheduled amortization payments under

              period after the date of such payment in respect of such Term
              Borrowing and (2) thereafter, to reduce on a pro rata basis (based
              on the amount of such amortization payments) the remaining
              scheduled amortization payments in respect of such Term Borrowing.
              For purposes of determining any allocation made ratably or on a
              pro rata basis contemplated under this paragraph at any time, the
              amount of any Tranche D-2 Term Loan shall be the Dollar Equivalent
              of the principal amount thereof, determined using the Exchange
              Rate calculated as of the date of such prepayment. For purposes of
              determining the amount of any prepayment of Tranche D-2 Term
              Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or 2.11(d), the applicable
              Exchange Rate on the date such prepayment is to be made shall be
              used.

Term Loans and New Revolving Facility Loans shall be secured by a Lien on the
Mortgaged Property that is the subject of such Mortgage, signed on behalf of the
record owner of such Mortgaged Property.

            (g) A Reaffirmation Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit B
hereto (the "Reaffirmation Agreement") shall have been executed and delivered by
each party thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of the Incremental Lenders to
make Tranche B-2 Term Loans shall not become effective unless each of the
foregoing conditions is satisfied at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time,
on December 15, 2005 (and, in the event such conditions are not so satisfied,
this Amendment shall terminate at such time).

              SECTION 10. Post-Effective Date Matters. The U.S. Borrower shall,
or shall cause the applicable Loan Party to, deliver to the Collateral Agent, no
later than 90 days after the Incremental Effective Date, or by such later date

represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and to each of the
Incremental Lenders that:

            (a) This Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and delivered
by the U.S. Borrower and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of
the U.S. Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) the
effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, fraudulent
conveyance or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, (ii)
general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) implied covenants of

            (b) Neither the performance by any U.S. Transaction Party of the
Amendment Transactions, nor compliance by such U.S. Transaction Party with the
terms and provisions of the Reaffirmation Agreement (and, in the case of the

statute, rule or regulation, or of the certificate or articles of incorporation
or other constitutive documents or by-laws of such U.S. Transaction Party, (B)

Governmental Authority or (C) any provision of any indenture, certificate of

Transaction Party or any of its subsidiaries or any of its or their property is
or may be bound, (ii) be in conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute
(alone or with notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, give rise to a
right of or result in any cancelation or acceleration of any right or obligation
(including any payment) or to a loss of a material benefit under any such
indenture, certificate of designation for preferred stock, agreement or other
instrument or (iii) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or
with respect to any property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired by any
U.S. Transaction Party or any of its subsidiaries, other than the Liens created
by the Loan Documents.

            (c) The representations and warranties set forth in Article III of
the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of
the Incremental Effective Date with the same effect as though made on and as of
such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly
relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties
shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date).

            (d) Immediately prior to and after giving effect to this Amendment,
no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

              SECTION 12. Effectiveness; Amendments. This Amendment shall become

change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements
contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or
different circumstances. After the date this Amendment becomes effective, any

"Incremental Extensions of Credit" and the Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitments
shall constitute commitments in respect of Incremental Extensions of Credit, in
each case for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which,
when taken together, shall constitute but one contract. Delivery of an executed

delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Amendment.

              SECTION 16. Expenses. The U.S. Borrower agrees to reimburse the
Administrative Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection
with this Amendment.

              SECTION 17. Headings. The Section headings used herein are for

affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting,
this Amendment.

EXHIBIT 10.1

2006 — 2008

Executive Performance Plan

Plan Summary

Awards: The Performance Shares will be earned on the Vesting Date (as defined below)
only to the extent that the Internal Net Sales Growth goal threshold described in a letter to you
(the “Letter”) for the Performance Period is exceeded, with any unearned Performance Shares being
forfeited without notice on the Vesting Date. Internal Net Sales Growth is defined as the Compound
Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) in Net Sales as calculated by the Company over the Performance Period
after adjustments for foreign currency exchange but excluding any individual acquisitions and
divestitures over US $30 million (or the equivalent in other currencies).

Performance Period: The Company’s 2006-2008 fiscal years.

Vesting: Performance Shares are earned and vest on the third anniversary of the grant date
(the “Vesting Date”). Employees who die, are Disabled or Retire (as defined in the 2003 Long-Term
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)) prior to the Vesting Date will continue to vest and will be eligible
for a full un-prorated award upon vesting. Recipients will forfeit, without further notice and
effective as of their date of termination any unvested Performance Shares if their employment
terminates prior to the Vesting Date for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement.

Change of Control: Notwithstanding the above, in the event of a Change of Control (as
defined in the Plan), all Performance Shares will be considered fully earned and will be payable at
target promptly as practicable following the Change of Control. The Compensation Committee may
adjust the Performance Shares earned to the extent the actual Internal Net Sales Growth to that
date exceeds the target specified in your Letter, but in no case will the Performance Shares earned
be less than the target.

Dividends: Dividends are not paid on Performance Shares. After the Performance Shares are
vested and shares of the Company’s Common Stock are deposited in a Wells Fargo account for the
participant (net of taxes) soon after the Vesting Date, dividends will be paid
prospectively on all shares of the Company’s common stock if and when declared by the Board
of Directors.

Voting: Performance Shares are not entitled to any voting rights. After the Performance
Shares are vested and shares of the Company’s common stock are deposited in a Wells Fargo account
for the participant (net of taxes) soon after the Vesting Date, the participant will be entitled to
voting rights on the shares of the Company’s common stock.

 Taxes: Taxes will be due when the Performance Shares vest based on the Fair
Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of the shares on the Vesting Date. In the year of
vesting, taxes will be reported on the appropriate tax reporting forms (W2 in the U.S., T4
in Canada). Employees will be deemed to have elected to pay the taxes owed by allowing the
Company to withhold shares on the Vesting Date (and delivering to the participant the net
shares of the Company’s common stock) at the statutory minimum. Taxes include Federal
taxes, social insurance or FICA taxes, and state and local taxes, if applicable.

Administration: Soon after the Vesting Date, the number of net shares of the Company’s
common stock earned will be deposited into a Wells Fargo account. After the shares of common stock
are deposited following the Vesting Date, participants can contact Wells Fargo at 1-877-910-5385
for customer service.

1

 

Communication: Target awards will be communicated to participants during the salary
planning communication in late February and early March, when other pay decisions such as merit
increase, bonus and stock option award are communicated. A plan summary is included with this
communication. Participants will receive confirmation of the actual number of Performance Shares
earned during the first quarter of the 2009 calendar year.

Registration: Upon the depositing of the shares in the Wells Fargo account, shares of the
Company’s common stock will be registered in the employee’s name. Employees can change the
registration of the shares by calling Wells Fargo.

Disposition at Vesting: After the shares of the Company’s common stock are deposited,
participants can leave the shares with Wells Fargo, ask Wells Fargo to sell the shares, have a
certificate issued to the participant or have the shares electronically transferred to another
broker.
A.
Benefits: Income from the 2006-2008 Executive Performance Plan will not be included in
earnings for the purposes of determining benefits, including pension, S&I, disability, life
insurance and other survivor benefits.

Insiders: After the Performance Shares vest and the net shares of common stock are
deposited, insiders cannot dispose of the shares of common stock without prior approval of the
Legal Department.

Other Plan Provisions: The 2006-2008 Executive Performance Plan was adopted under the Plan
and is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, including those related to the ability of the
Board of Directors to amend the Plan, the Executive Performance Plan or any awards thereunder.
Nothing in this summary or the 2006-2008 Executive Performance Plan or the Plan shall confer upon
the participant any right of continued employment.

This plan summary is subject to the actual plan document and any additional terms and
conditions as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
