STURTEVANT, Wis.--(Business Wire)--
JohnsonDiversey, Inc. ("JohnsonDiversey") and JohnsonDiversey Holdings, Inc.
("JohnsonDiversey Holdings") announced today the results to date of
JohnsonDiversey`s previously announced cash tender offers for its outstanding
euro-denominated 9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 (CUSIP No. 479269AD4,
ISIN Nos. US479269AD49, XS0153495907, XS0147085020) (the "Euro Notes") and its
outstanding dollar-denominated 9.625% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 (CUSIP
No. 479269AB8, ISIN No. US479269AB82) (the "Dollar Notes") and JohnsonDiversey
Holdings` previously announced cash tender offer for its outstanding 10.67%
Senior Discount Notes due 2013 (CUSIP No. 47926PAB2, ISIN No. US47926PAB22) (the
"Holdings Notes" and, together with the Euro Notes and the Dollar Notes, the
"Notes") and the related consent solicitations to amend the indentures under
which the related Notes were issued. The tender offers and the consent
solicitations are being made on the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated October
26, 2009 (the "Offer to Purchase") and the related Letter of Transmittal and
Consent.

As of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 6, 2009 (the "Consent
Deadline"), approximately €157.4 million of outstanding Euro Notes, or
approximately 70.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Euro Notes outstanding,
had been validly tendered and not withdrawn. Accordingly, JohnsonDiversey has
received consents sufficient to approve the proposed amendments to the indenture
governing the Euro Notes. JohnsonDiversey and the trustee for the Euro Notes
will enter into a supplemental indenture containing the proposed amendments to
the indenture governing the Euro Notes, which amendments will not become
operative unless and until JohnsonDiversey accepts for purchase, and pays for,
Euro Notes validly tendered in the applicable tender offer.

As of the Consent Deadline, approximately $112.6 million of outstanding Dollar
Notes and approximately $99.4 million of outstanding Holdings Notes had been
validly tendered and not withdrawn. Such amounts represent approximately 37.5%
of the aggregate principal amount of Dollar Notes outstanding and 24.5% of the
aggregate principal amount at maturity of Holdings Notes outstanding,
respectively.

In accordance with the Offer to Purchase, each consent solicitation expired upon
the Consent Deadline and withdrawal rights under each tender offer terminated
upon the Consent Deadline. In this regard, Notes validly tendered at or prior to
the Consent Deadline may no longer be withdrawn and consents delivered at or
prior to the Consent Deadline may no longer be revoked.

Each tender offer remains open, and the expiration time of each tender offer
remains midnight, New York City time, on Monday, November 23, 2009, unless
extended or earlier terminated (such date and time with respect to a tender
offer, the "Expiration Time"). Holders who validly tendered and did not validly
withdraw their Notes by the Consent Deadline will be eligible to receive the
applicable total consideration. The total consideration for each €1,000
principal amount of Euro Notes, each $1,000 principal amount of Dollar Notes and
each $1,000 principal amount at maturity of Holdings Notes validly tendered and
not validly withdrawn and accepted for payment pursuant to the applicable tender
offer will be an amount equal to €1,018.54, $1,018.54 and $1,020.28,
respectively.

Holders who validly tender their Notes after the Consent Deadline but at or
prior to the Expiration Time will be eligible to receive €988.54 for each €1,000
principal amount of Euro Notes, $988.54 for each $1,000 principal amount of
Dollar Notes and $990.28 for each $1,000 principal amount at maturity of
Holdings Notes, representing the applicable total consideration less the
applicable consent payment of €30.00 for each €1,000 principal amount of Euro
Notes, $30.00 for each $1,000 principal amount of Dollar Notes and $30.00 for
each $1,000 principal amount at maturity of Holdings Notes, as the case may be.
In addition, holders whose Notes are accepted for payment in the applicable
tender offer will be paid accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from the
last interest payment date to, but not including, the applicable payment date
for Notes purchased.

Each of the tender offers remain subject to the satisfaction or waiver of
certain conditions as described in the Offer to Purchase, including (1) the
consummation of certain transactions described in the Offer to Purchase and (2)
the receipt by JohnsonDiversey of proceeds from one or more financings
generating net proceeds sufficient to repurchase the Notes tendered.
