We could affirm or raise the rating following the resolution of the CreditWatch listing. As of March 31, 2008, Tupperware had about $644 million of reported debt. "The CreditWatch placement follows the company's improved operating performance over recent quarters, its ongoing debt-reduction efforts, and our expectations for strengthened credit measures that should remain stronger than medians for the rating," said Standard&amp;Poor's credit analyst Christopher Johnson.

Broadened product portfolio; and Geographic diversity. Direct-sales distribution channel and challenges associated with expanding distribution channels; Participation in the highly competitive cosmetics industry; and Vulnerability to the global economy, in which there is both political and currency risk. The ratings on Orlando, Fla.-based Tupperware Brands Corp. reflect the risks of direct-sales distribution and the company's participation in the highly competitive cosmetics industry. These factors are somewhat mitigated by Tupperware's product and geographic diversity, its well-known brand name, and premium product position within the mature molded-plastic storage category. Tupperware is a global direct seller of consumer food storage, preparation and serving items, and cosmetics.

Broadened product portfolio; and Geographic diversity. Direct-sales distribution channel and challenges associated with expanding distribution channels; Participation in the highly competitive cosmetics industry; and Vulnerability to the global economy, in which there is both political and currency risk. The ratings on Orlando, Fla.-based Tupperware Brands Corp. reflect the risks of direct-sales distribution and the company's participation in the highly competitive cosmetics industry. These factors are somewhat mitigated by Tupperware's well-known brand name and premium product position within the mature molded-plastic storage category, and improved product and geographic diversity as a result of the December 2005 acquisition of the direct-selling business of Sara Lee Corp. (SLD).

The facilities were rated 'BBB-' (two notches above the corporate credit rating), with a recovery rating of '1', indicating our expectation of very high (90%-100%) recovery in the event of a payment default. The ratings are based on preliminary terms and are subject to review upon final documentation. Also, Standard&amp;Poor's affirmed its 'BB' corporate credit rating on the company. The outlook is stable. Net proceeds from the bank facilities will primarily be used to refinance existing debt and for general corporate purposes.
