AMENDMENT TO THE DIRECTOR APPOINTMENT AND NOMINATION

AGREEMENT

This amendment to the Director Appointment and Nomination Agreement (this “Amendment”), dated April 23, 2018, is by and among the persons and entities listed on Schedule A (collectively, the “Icahn Group”, and each individually a “member” of the Icahn Group) and Newell Brands Inc. (the “Company”) (each a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”).

WHEREAS, the Parties entered into the Director Appointment and Nomination Agreement on March 18, 2018 (the “Nomination Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Company entered into an Agreement with Starboard Value and Opportunity Master Fund Ltd (the “Settlement Agreement”), dated April 23, 2018; and

WHEREAS, the Parties have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment, to amend the Nomination Agreement as provided herein.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of and reliance upon the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Amendment, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

“each of Brett Icahn and Courtney Mather (collectively the “Icahn Designees” and each an “Icahn Designee”)”

“as long as the Icahn Group has not materially breached this Agreement and failed to cure such breach within five business days of written notice from the Company specifying any such breach, the Company agrees that the Company’s slate of nominees for election to the Board at the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the “2018 Annual Meeting”) will consist only of the following 12 individuals (collectively, the “2018 NWL Slate”): the New Independent Director, each of the Icahn Designees, Michael Polk, Steven Strobel, Michael Todman, James Craigie, Debra Crew, Judith Sprieser and three other individuals appointed in the manner set forth in the Settlement Agreement (such three individuals, collectively, the “Additional Appointees” and each an “Additional Appointee”); provided, however, that, subject to the terms and conditions of the Settlement Agreement, should any of the foregoing nominees on the 2018 NWL Slate other than the Icahn Designees, the Additional Appointees or the New Independent Director resign from the Board or be rendered unable to, or refuse to, be appointed to, or for any other reason fail to serve or is not serving on the Board, the Company shall be entitled to nominate a replacement to be elected to the Board at the 2018 Annual Meeting;”

“. If at any time after the date of this Agreement, the Icahn Group, together with the Icahn Affiliates (as defined below), ceases collectively to beneficially own (as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the SEC (as defined below) under the Exchange Act (as defined below)), an aggregate Net Long Position of at least the lesser of 1.0% of the total outstanding Common Shares (as defined below) of the Company and 4,852,000 Common Shares (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like) (such amount, the “Minimum Ownership Threshold”) the Icahn Group’s ability to designate a Replacement for any Icahn Designee and New Independent Director shall terminate. The Icahn Group shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) business days) inform the Company in writing if at any time the Icahn Group’s (together with the Icahn Affiliates’) ownership of the Common Shares of the Company decreases to less than the Minimum Ownership Threshold.”

“concurrently with the execution of the Settlement Agreement, the Board will take all necessary action to appoint: (1) Courtney Mather as Chair of the Finance Committee of the Board, which shall not have more than four (4) members; (2) Courtney Mather to the Nominating/Governance Committee, which shall not have more than four (4) members; (3) Brett Icahn to the Audit Committee; and (4) Brett Icahn to the Organizational Development & Compensation Committee, which shall not have more than four (4) members; and”

“Following the appointment of the Icahn Designees to the Board pursuant to Section 1(a)(i), this Agreement shall thereafter terminate and be of no further force or effect (for the avoidance of doubt, including the Voting Agreement set forth in Section 2) at such time, if any, as (a) no Icahn Designee serves on the Board and (b) the Icahn Group is (1) no longer entitled to designate a Replacement for any Icahn Designee and the New Independent Director or (2) has waived all further rights to designate a Replacement for the Icahn Designees and the New Independent Director.”
