<P STYLE="margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. Certain statements contained
in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, the information incorporated herein by reference, and other written and oral statements made from time to time by us or on our behalf are based on current projections about operations,
industry conditions, financial condition, and liquidity, may not relate strictly to historical or current facts and may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. As
such, they are considered &#147;forward-looking statements&#148; which provide current expectations or forecasts of future events. Such statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as &#147;may,&#148; &#147;could,&#148;
&#147;will,&#148; &#147;should,&#148; &#147;possible,&#148; &#147;plan,&#148; &#147;predict,&#148; &#147;forecast,&#148; &#147;potential,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148; &#147;project,&#148;
&#147;intend,&#148; &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;may impact,&#148; &#147;on track,&#148; and similar words or expressions. Our forward-looking statements generally relate to our growth strategies, financial results, product development, and sales
efforts. These forward-looking statements should be considered with the understanding that such statements involve a variety of risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, and may be affected by inaccurate assumptions. Consequently, no
forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and actual results may vary materially. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">Forward-looking statements in this document or in the information
incorporated herein by reference may include, but are not limited to, statements regarding expected earnings per share, cash flow, productivity and material and oil-related prices. Many risks, contingencies and uncertainties could cause actual
results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements. Among these factors are: (1)&nbsp;intense competition in the home appliance industry reflecting the impact of both new and established global competitors, including Asian and European
manufacturers; (2)&nbsp;our ability to continue our relationship with significant trade customers and the ability of these trade customers to maintain or increase market share; (3)&nbsp;risks associated with acquisitions and other investments;
(4)&nbsp;changes in economic conditions which affect demand for our products, including the strength of the building industry and the level of interest rates; (5)&nbsp;product liability and product recall costs; (6)&nbsp;inventory and other asset
risk; (7)&nbsp;risks related to our international operations, including changes in foreign regulations, regulatory compliance and disruptions arising from natural disasters or terrorist attacks; (8)&nbsp;the uncertain global economy; (9)&nbsp;our
ability to achieve our business plans, productivity improvements, cost control, price increases, leveraging of our global operating platform, and acceleration of the rate of innovation; (10)&nbsp;our ability to maintain our reputation and brand
image; (11)&nbsp;fluctuations in the cost of key materials (including steel, plastic, resins, copper and aluminum) and components and our ability to offset cost increases; (12)&nbsp;litigation, tax, and legal compliance risk and costs, especially

<P STYLE="margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">While we are not a holding company, we conduct some of our operations through our subsidiaries. As of December&nbsp;31, 2013, our subsidiaries had indebtedness of
$73 million. Holders of the notes will be effectively subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade creditors. In the event of a default by a subsidiary under any credit arrangement or other
indebtedness, its creditors could accelerate such debt, prior to such subsidiary distributing amounts to us that we could have used to make payments on the notes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">In addition, the notes will be unsecured. As of December&nbsp;31, 2013, we had no significant secured debt outstanding. If in the future, we default on any then-existing secured debt, the holders thereof may
foreclose on the assets securing our secured debt, reducing the cash flow from the foreclosed property available for payment of unsecured debt. The holders of any of our secured debt outstanding at the time of an event of default also would have
priority over unsecured creditors in the event of our liquidation, bankruptcy or similar proceeding. In the event of such a proceeding, the holders of our secured debt, if any, would be entitled to proceed against our pledged collateral, and that
collateral will not be available for payment of unsecured debt, including the notes. As a result, the notes will be effectively subordinated to any secured debt that we may have now or in the future. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="3"><B>The notes do not restrict our ability to incur additional debt or prohibit us from taking other action that could have a negative impact on holders of the
notes. </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">We are not restricted under the terms of the indenture or the notes from incurring additional indebtedness. The terms of the indenture limit
our ability to secure additional debt without also securing the notes and to enter into sale and leaseback transactions. However, these limitations are subject to certain exceptions. See &#147;Description of Notes&#151;Certain
Covenants&#151;Limitations on Liens&#148; and &#147;Description of Notes&#151;Certain Covenants&#151;Restriction on Sales and Leasebacks.&#148; In addition, the notes do not require us to achieve or maintain any minimum financial results relating to
our financial position or results of operations. Our ability to recapitalize, secure existing or future debt or take a number of other actions that are not limited by the terms of the indenture and the notes, including repurchasing subordinated
indebtedness or common stock or transferring assets to our parent if we were to form a holding company, could have the effect of diminishing our ability to make payments on the notes when due. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">Our ability to make scheduled payments with respect to our indebtedness, including the notes, will depend on our financial and operating performance, which, in

<P STYLE="margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">In general, as market interest rates rise, notes bearing interest at a fixed rate generally decline in value because the premium, if any, over market interest rates
will decline. Consequently, if you purchase notes and market interest rates increase, the market value of your notes may decline. We cannot predict the future level of market interest rates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event (as defined below under &#147;Description of Notes&#151;Certain Definitions&#148;), unless we have exercised our right to redeem the notes, subject to
certain conditions, we will be required to make an offer to each holder of notes to repurchase the notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of repurchase.
The source of funds for that repurchase of notes will be our available cash or cash generated from our subsidiaries&#146; operations or other potential sources, including borrowings, sales of assets or sales of equity. We cannot assure you that
sufficient funds from those sources will be available at the time a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, requiring us to repurchase the notes tendered. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">Accordingly, it is possible that we will not have sufficient funds at the time of the Change of Control Repurchase Event to make the required repurchase of the notes or our other debt securities. It is also
possible that restrictions in our credit agreement will not allow such repurchases. See &#147;Description of Notes&#151;Repurchase Upon a Change of Control&#148; for additional information. </FONT></P>

disposition of the notes by initial holders of notes, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all the potential tax considerations. This discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the &#147;Code&#148;), the Treasury
Regulations thereunder and administrative rulings and court decisions, all as of the date hereof, and all of which are subject to change, possibly retroactively. Unless otherwise stated, this discussion is limited to the tax consequences to those
persons who are original beneficial owners of the notes (&#147;Holders&#148;) who purchase notes at their original issue price (generally the first price at which a substantial amount of the notes are sold for money to the public, not including
purchases by bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers) for cash and who hold such notes as capital assets within the meaning of Section&nbsp;1221 of the Code and
assumes that such issue price is the price stated on the cover of this offering memorandum. This discussion assumes that the notes are not issued with original issue discount as that term is defined in the Code and Treasury Regulations. This
discussion does not consider any specific facts or circumstances or special tax rules that may apply to a particular Holder based on its status (including, for example, a bank, a financial institution, a broker-dealer, an insurance company, a
passive foreign investment company, a controlled foreign corporation, an individual retirement or other tax-deferred account, an S corporation, a broker-dealer or dealer or trader in securities or currencies, a tax-exempt organization, a partnership
or other pass-through entity, an expatriate, a real estate investment trust, a regulated investment company, or a person that holds securities as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion transaction, or other integrated investment). This discussion
also does not address the tax consequences to persons that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar. In addition, this discussion does not address U.S. federal alternative minimum tax or estate and gift tax consequences or any aspect of
state, local or foreign taxation. We have not sought any ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the &#147;IRS&#148;) with respect to the statements made and the conclusions reached in this discussion, and we cannot assure you that the IRS will

relating to &#147;contingent payment debt instruments.&#148; Under applicable Treasury regulations, the possibility that such an amount will be paid will not affect the amount, timing or character of income recognized by a holder with respect to the
notes if, as of the date the notes were issued, there is only a remote chance that such an amount will be paid, the amount is incidental or certain other exceptions apply. We intend to take the position that the contingencies associated with such
payments on the notes should not cause the notes to be subject to the contingent payment debt instrument rules. Our determination is binding on a holder unless such holder discloses its contrary position in the manner required by applicable Treasury
regulations. Our determination is not, however, binding on the IRS, and if the IRS were to successfully challenge this determination, a holder might be required to accrue interest income at a higher rate than the stated interest rate on the notes,
and to treat as ordinary income any gain realized on the taxable disposition of a note. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the notes will not be treated as contingent payment debt instruments. Holders are urged to consult their own tax
advisors regarding the potential application to the notes of the contingent payment debt instrument rules and the consequences thereof. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="3"><B>U.S. federal

STYLE="font-family:ARIAL" SIZE="2">Recent legislation (&#147;FATCA legislation&#148;) generally imposes a withholding tax of 30% on payments of interest or gross proceeds from the disposition of a debt instrument to (i)&nbsp;a &#147;foreign
financial institution&#148; (as defined in the Code) (as the beneficial owner or as an intermediary for the beneficial owner), unless such institution is &#147;deemed compliant,&#148; complies with an applicable intergovernmental agreement and/or
enters into an agreement with the United States government to collect and provide to the United States tax authorities substantial information regarding United States account holders of such institution (which would include certain equity and debt
holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are foreign entities with United States owners) or (ii)&nbsp;a foreign entity that is not a financial institution in certain cases (as the beneficial owner or as an intermediary
for the beneficial owner), unless such entity provides the withholding agent with a certification identifying the substantial United States owners of the entity, which generally includes any United States person who directly or indirectly owns more
than 10% of the entity. Although the FATCA legislation applies to all debt instruments issued on or after January&nbsp;1, 2013, the date for implementation of withholding taxes under FATCA legislation has been extended by Treasury Regulations and
other guidance to July&nbsp;1, 2014 for payment of fixed and determinable annual or periodic income, including interest, and to January&nbsp;1, 2017 for other &#147;withholdable payments,&#148; including payments of gross proceeds. After these
dates, payments of interest on, or gross proceeds from the sale of, debt instruments made to such non-United States entities generally will be subject to the new information reporting regime and related withholding taxes, although a payment that
would otherwise be subject to withholding tax under the FATCA legislation may also be exempt from withholding under various intergovernmental agreements entered into by the United States and foreign governments. However, under a
&#147;grandfathering&#148; rule, this withholding tax will not apply to payments (of interest or gross proceeds) on a debt instrument issued prior to July&nbsp;1, 2014, such as the notes (except to the extent that such instrument is modified after
such date in a manner that results in such instrument being treated as a new debt instrument for federal income tax purposes). Prospective purchasers of the notes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the implications of the FATCA
legislation on their investment in the notes. </FONT></P>

above independent market levels, but no representation is made hereby of the magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the market prices of the notes. The representatives will not be required to engage in these

the open market in the absence of these transactions. The underwriters may conduct these transactions in the over-the-counter-market or otherwise. If underwriters commence any of these transactions, they may discontinue them at any time. </FONT></P>

for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. If any of the underwriters or their affiliates has a lending relationship
with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates may routinely hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, such underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by
entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could
adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered hereby. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial
