Section 1 - Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Tupperware Brands Corporation (the “Company”) evaluated its 2018 product offerings and determined that “conflict minerals” (as defined in applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules) were necessary to the functionality or production of certain products that the Company manufactured or contracted to have manufactured. The Company determined that: (i) tin (or a derivative thereof) was contained in its Tupperchef Pro Handy Food Processor, in certain pigments and in certain beauty products; (ii) tin and gold were contained in its Digital Easy Scale and Digital Kitchen Scale; (iii) tin and tungsten were contained in its Alkaline Water Ionizer; and (iv) tin, tungsten, gold and tantalum were contained in its TW-100 Water Ionizer, TW Dehumidifier, Far-Infrared Cooktop Premium, Portable Far-Infrared Cooktop, Premium Hybrid Cooktop, and Induction Cooking Plate. Based on the results of the Company’s good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry and due diligence efforts (including sending to the suppliers of the aforementioned products or components of products the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template developed by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”) and comparing the smelter information provided by the suppliers against the list of smelter facilities considered to be conformant with the RMI’s Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”) assessment protocols, or obtaining written statements from such suppliers regarding the presence and country of origin of conflict minerals in the products or product components supplied), the Company has been able to determine that the conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of the Digital Easy Scale, Digital Kitchen Scale, Tupperchef Pro Handy Food Processor, Alkaline Water Ionizer, Far-Infrared Cooktop Premium, Portable Far-Infrared Cooktop, Premium Hybrid Cooktop, TW Dehumidifier, pigments and beauty products, were not sourced from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or its adjoining countries (collectively, “Covered Countries”).

The supplier of the Induction Cooking Plate listed a smelter in Rwanda (a Covered Country) that is not on the RMAP’s conformant smelters list as a source of some of its tin. The supplier of the TW-100 Water Ionizer listed forty-four smelters in Covered Countries as sources of some of its tin, gold, tantalum and tungsten, four of which are located in the DRC and are not on the RMAP’s conformant smelters list (i.e., 2 smelters of tantalum and 2 smelters of tungsten). It is unknown whether any of these conflict minerals from the smelter in Rwanda and the four smelters in the DRC are contained in these two products. After conducting additional required due diligence, the Company has not been able to identify with reasonable certainty the countries of origin and chain of custody of all of the tin necessary to the functionality or production of the Induction Cooking Plate, or all of the tantalum or tungsten necessary to the functionality or production of the TW-100 Water Ionizer. Accordingly, with respect to the Induction Cooking Plate and the TW-100 Water Ionizer, the Company has filed a Conflict Minerals Report with the SEC, a copy of which is provided as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form SD. Such Conflict Minerals Report is also publicly available in the SEC Filings section of the Company’s website at http://ir.tupperwarebrands.com/financial-information/sec-filings . Information on the Company’s website shall not be deemed incorporated into, or to be a part of, this report.

As an exhibit to this Form SD, the Company has filed the Conflict Minerals Report required by Items 1.01 and 1.02 of this Form.
