Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 17, 2026 (the “Signing Date”), Silgan Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Silgan” or the “Company”), and Silgan Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“SH LLC”), entered into certain agreements relating to (i) the creation of a partnership between SH LLC and A-VL Holdco, LP, a Delaware limited partnership and an investment vehicle (the “A-VL Investor”) affiliated with funds managed by AIP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor”), (ii) the contribution by the Company of its Metal Containers and Closures Business (as defined below) to such partnership, and (iii) the proposed acquisition by such partnership of Trivium Packaging B.V., a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) under the laws of the Netherlands (“Trivium”).

Transaction Agreement

On the Signing Date, the Company, the A-VL Investor and Silgan Metal Packaging LLC, a Delaware limited liability company that is a newly formed subsidiary of SH LLC (“MetalCo”), entered into a Transaction Agreement in connection with the formation of a partnership between SH LLC and the A-VL Investor. The Transaction Agreement provides that, upon its terms and subject to certain conditions, at the closing (the “Closing”), (i) the Company, through one or more of its subsidiaries, will contribute its metal food and general line containers, metal vacuum closures, plastic vacuum closures, non-dispensing plastic dairy closures and aluminum roll-on closures for beer and non-alcoholic beverages businesses (collectively, the “Metal Containers and Closures Business”) to MetalCo or one or more subsidiaries of MetalCo (the “Business Contribution”) in exchange for 60% of MetalCo’s Class A voting units and the Silgan Distribution Amount (as defined below), (ii) the A-VL Investor will contribute $1.025 billion in cash to MetalCo (the “A-VL Contribution”) in exchange for 40% of MetalCo’s Class A voting units, (iii) MetalCo will distribute to SH LLC an aggregate amount equal to (a) $2.263 billion, minus (b) if applicable, the New Silgan Debt Amount (as defined below) (the “Silgan Distribution Amount”) and (iv) at the Company’s election, (a) the Company may incur up to an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion of new debt (which may be funded by a portion of the commitments under the Debt Financing (as defined below)) (such debt, the “New Silgan Debt” and such aggregate principal amount of the New Silgan Debt, the “New Silgan Debt Amount”) and (b) MetalCo will assume the New Silgan Debt in connection with the Business Contribution. The Business Contribution will be made on a cash-free, debt-free basis, subject to a customary closing net working capital adjustment and certain other adjustments as provided in the Transaction Agreement. The A-VL Investor will fund the A-VL Contribution at the Closing with equity proceeds committed to it by American Industrial Partners Capital Fund IX, L.P. (“Fund IX”), an investment fund managed by an affiliate of Sponsor, pursuant to a customary equity commitment letter entered into on the Signing Date.

The Closing is subject to the concurrent closing of the transactions contemplated by the Trivium Purchase Agreement (as defined below), Silgan effecting an internal reorganization for the Business Contribution in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Agreement and certain other customary closing conditions.

The Transaction Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants for a transaction of its size and scope. The representations and warranties under the Transaction Agreement do not survive the Closing. Between the Signing Date and the Closing, subject to certain customary exceptions, Silgan has agreed to operate its Metal Containers and Closures Business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and not take certain actions with respect to its Metal Containers and Closures Business without the prior written consent of MetalCo or, in some cases, without written notification to MetalCo following such action.

The Transaction Agreement provides that: (i) Silgan will indemnify MetalCo and certain related parties for (a) breaches of Silgan’s post-Closing covenants, (b) liabilities related to Silgan’s retained business, (c) certain limited specified taxes and a certain other limited special indemnity item, and (d) certain costs and tax liabilities arising from Silgan’s pre-Closing reorganization actions, (ii) MetalCo will indemnify Silgan and certain related parties for (a) breaches of MetalCo’s post-Closing covenants and (b) liabilities related to the Metal Containers and Closures Business and (iii) the A-VL Investor will indemnify MetalCo and certain related parties for breaches of the A-VL Investor’s post-closing covenants.

The Transaction Agreement contains certain termination rights for the parties, including (without limitation) if (i) the Closing has not occurred by October 15, 2027 (which date is subject to automatic extension if the outside date under the Trivium Purchase Agreement is extended (as described below)) or (ii) either (a) the Put Option Agreement (as defined below) expires or is terminated without the Put Option (as defined below) being exercised or (b) the Trivium Purchase Agreement is terminated. Fund IX has delivered a limited guarantee in favor of the Company guaranteeing, subject to a cap, certain payment obligations of the A-VL Investor under the Transaction Agreement. Generally, the parties have agreed to share the costs and expenses in connection with the Transaction Agreement and the Trivium Purchase Agreement.

MetalCo expects to fund the Silgan Distribution under the Transaction Agreement through the borrowings described under the heading “MetalCo Debt Commitment Letter” below and the cash contribution from the A-VL Investor described herein.

The foregoing description of the Transaction Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Transaction Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Put Option Agreement

On the Signing Date, MetalCo entered into a Put Option Agreement (the “Put Option Agreement”) with Trivium, Ardagh Group Holdings S.à r.l., a private limited liability company (société à responsabilité limitée) under the laws of Luxembourg (“Ardagh”), Element Holdings II L.P., an exempted limited partnership formed under the laws of the Cayman Islands (“Element” and, together with Ardagh, the “Sellers”) and Exal Holdings International Parent B.V., a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) under the laws of the Netherlands (“Blocker” and, together with Trivium and the Sellers, collectively, the “Beneficiaries”) and Element, solely in its capacity as representative of the Beneficiaries (the “Beneficiary Representative”), relating to the proposed acquisition by MetalCo of 100% of the outstanding shares of Trivium (the “Trivium Shares”).

Pursuant to the Put Option Agreement, the Beneficiary Representative, on behalf of the Sellers, has the right (the “Put Option”) to require MetalCo to purchase the Trivium Shares on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the form of share purchase agreement attached to the Put Option Agreement (the “Trivium Purchase Agreement”), which Put Option may be exercised only following completion of certain information and consultation processes required under applicable law, including with applicable works councils in France and the Netherlands (the “Consultation Processes”) and as required under the Dutch Merger Code (SER Fusiegedragsregels 2015) (the “Merger Code Process”). The Beneficiaries are obligated to engage with such works councils promptly after the Signing Date and to diligently pursue such Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process.

The Beneficiary Representative, on behalf of the Sellers, may exercise the Put Option within five business days after completion of the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process, subject to an outside date of nine months following the Signing Date. If the Put Option is exercised by delivery of a written notice from the Beneficiary Representative to MetalCo (the “Exercise Notice”), MetalCo and the Beneficiaries are obligated to enter into the Trivium Purchase Agreement within five business days thereafter and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Trivium Purchase Agreement, subject to the conditions set forth therein. If the parties have not signed the Trivium Purchase Agreement within five business days from receipt of the Exercise Notice by MetalCo, the Trivium Purchase Agreement will automatically come into effect on such fifth business day as if it had been executed on such date, with no further action required by the parties thereto.

From the Signing Date until the earlier of the expiration of the Put Option and the execution or effectiveness of the Trivium Purchase Agreement, certain covenants of the Trivium Purchase Agreement will apply as if the Trivium Purchase Agreement were in effect, including (i) Trivium and Blocker agreeing to operate the Trivium businesses in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and to not take certain actions with respect to such businesses without the prior written consent of MetalCo, in each case subject to certain exceptions, and (ii) the parties’ obligations to use reasonable best efforts to do all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Trivium Purchase Agreement, including using reasonable best efforts to cause the waiting periods or other requirements under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), and all other applicable antitrust laws to terminate or expire prior to the outside date under the Trivium Purchase Agreement. In addition, from the Signing Date until the earlier of (a) the date the Trivium Purchase Agreement is executed or becomes effective and (b) the twelve-month anniversary of the Signing Date, the Beneficiaries and their affiliates will be prohibited from soliciting, discussing or agreeing to any competing proposal to acquire Trivium or providing information to other potential buyers.

Before the Put Option is exercised, the Beneficiaries may terminate the Put Option Agreement if the regulatory closing condition set forth in the Trivium Purchase Agreement or the condition requiring no order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Trivium Purchase Agreement becomes incapable of being satisfied by the outside date under the Trivium Purchase Agreement (as described below). In the event that the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process are completed, but the Beneficiary Representative does not exercise the Put Option by the expiry of the option period, the Beneficiaries will be obligated to reimburse certain expenses of MetalCo, up to $40 million, in accordance with the Put Option Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Put Option Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Put Option Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Trivium Purchase Agreement

Under the form of the Trivium Purchase Agreement attached to the Put Option Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, MetalCo will purchase the Trivium Shares for a cash payment to the Sellers of approximately $327.5 million, subject to certain adjustments, plus the assumption of approximately $3.1 billion in Trivium debt obligations (as of the date hereof), which are scheduled to be repaid at the Closing. The Trivium Purchase Agreement contains a “locked box” mechanism fixing Trivium’s equity value as of December 31, 2025, with customary protections against value leakage before the Closing.

The closing of transactions contemplated by the Trivium Purchase Agreement is subject to the concurrent closing of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, obtaining approvals or clearances under applicable Antitrust Laws, including the HSR Act, and certain other customary closing conditions.

The Trivium Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants for a transaction of this nature. Between the Signing Date and the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Trivium Purchase Agreement, subject to certain exceptions, Trivium and Blocker have agreed to operate the Trivium businesses in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and to not take certain actions with respect to such businesses without the prior written consent of MetalCo. In addition, the parties have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to do all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Trivium Purchase Agreement, including using reasonable best efforts to cause the waiting periods or other requirements under the HSR Act and all other applicable Antitrust Laws to terminate or expire prior to the outside date under the Trivium Purchase Agreement.

MetalCo will obtain representation and warranty insurance to cover losses resulting from breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in the Trivium Purchase Agreement.

The Trivium Purchase Agreement contains certain termination rights of the parties, including (without limitation) if (i) the Closing has not occurred by October 14, 2027, provided that such date shall automatically extend to April 12, 2028 only in the event that the regulatory closing condition and the Transaction Agreement closing condition have not then been satisfied and there is not in effect an order restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Trivium Purchase Agreement, or (ii) the Transaction Agreement is terminated, subject to certain exceptions. If the Trivium Purchase Agreement is terminated as a result of (i) an uncured MetalCo breach, including any such uncured MetalCo breach at any time following the outside date, or (ii) MetalCo’s failure to close following the satisfaction or waiver of the closing conditions applicable to MetalCo and the Sellers and Trivium are ready, willing and able to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, MetalCo is obligated to pay Trivium a termination fee of $40 million. If the Trivium Purchase Agreement is terminated as a result of the Transaction Agreement terminating, subject to certain exceptions, MetalCo is obligated to pay Trivium a termination fee of $75 million. If the Trivium Purchase Agreement is terminated as a result of a willful breach by MetalCo of the Trivium Purchase Agreement, determined by a final non-appealable order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or a written settlement agreement entered into by the Sellers and MetalCo, MetalCo is obligated to pay Trivium damages not to exceed $100 million plus any costs and expenses incurred by Trivium in connection with the enforcement of the Trivium Purchase Agreement not to exceed $3 million. In no event is MetalCo required to pay (i) both (x) a termination fee and (y) monetary damages in respect of any MetalCo breach (subject to the $100 million cap) or (ii) both termination fees.

MetalCo expects to fund the obligations under the Trivium Purchase Agreement through the borrowings described under the heading “MetalCo Debt Commitment Letter” below and the cash contribution from the A-VL Investor described under the heading “Transaction Agreement.”

The Company, or a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and an affiliate of the A-VL Investor have each provided a limited guarantee in favor of Trivium guaranteeing such guarantor’s agreed share of certain payment obligations of MetalCo under the Put Option Agreement and the Trivium Purchase Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Trivium Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Trivium Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

The Transaction Agreement and the Trivium Purchase Agreement have been filed to provide security holders with information regarding their respective terms. They are not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, Trivium, the Sellers or their respective subsidiaries and affiliates. The Transaction Agreement and the Trivium Purchase Agreement contain or reference various representations, warranties and covenants by the parties to the Transaction Agreement and the Trivium Purchase Agreement. These representations, warranties and covenants were made solely for the benefit of the other parties to the Transaction Agreement and the Trivium Purchase Agreement and (i) are not intended to be treated as categorical statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate, (ii) may have been qualified by confidential disclosure schedules or other documents that were delivered to the other party in connection with the Transaction Agreement or the Trivium Purchase Agreement and which contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the Transaction Agreement or the Trivium Purchase Agreement, (iii) may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the parties that differ from what might be viewed as material to stockholders and (iv) were made only as of the date of the Transaction Agreement and the Trivium Purchase Agreement or such other date or dates as may be specified in the Transaction Agreement or the Trivium Purchase Agreement. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Transaction Agreement and the Trivium Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures by the Company. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or Trivium.

MetalCo Debt Commitment Letter

On the Signing Date, in connection with the proposed acquisition of Trivium and the closing under the Transaction Agreement, MetalCo entered into a debt commitment letter (the “Debt Commitment Letter”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo Bank”), Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (“Wells Fargo Securities” and, together with Wells Fargo Bank, “Wells Fargo”), Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Goldman Sachs”), Royal Bank of Canada (“RBC”), RBC Capital Markets (“RBCCM”), Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch (“DBNY”), Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“DBSI” and, together with DBNY, “DB”), Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), BofA Securities, Inc. (together with its designees and affiliates, “BofA Securities” and, together with Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs, RBC, RBCCM, DB, Bank of America and each additional arranger appointed pursuant to the terms therein, the “Commitment Parties”), pursuant to which the Commitment Parties have agreed to provide, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, commitments for (i) a new senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $4.9 billion and (ii) a new senior secured revolving facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion (collectively, the “Debt Financing”). Proceeds from the Debt Financing and the cash contribution from the A-VL Investor will be used to fund (a) payment of amounts to be paid by MetalCo pursuant to the Trivium Purchase Agreement, (b) the repayment of approximately $3.1 billion of indebtedness of Trivium pursuant to the Trivium Purchase Agreement, (c) the payment of other fees, expenses and costs incurred in connection with the foregoing, (d) the distribution of the Silgan Distribution Amount and the payment of certain other amounts, as applicable, as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, and (e) working capital and general corporate purposes of MetalCo and its subsidiaries following the Closing. The receipt of debt financing by MetalCo is not a condition to MetalCo’s obligation to consummate either the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement or the Trivium Purchase Agreement.

Silgan and its subsidiaries (other than MetalCo and its subsidiaries) will not be guarantors under the MetalCo senior secured debt facilities, and none of the assets of Silgan and its subsidiaries (other than MetalCo and its subsidiaries) will be pledged to secure the obligations of MetalCo under its senior secured debt facilities.

The foregoing description of the Debt Commitment Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Debt Commitment Letter, which is filed as Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement

Upon the Closing, MetalCo, SH LLC, the A-VL Investor, the Company (solely for the certain limited sections set forth therein) and Sponsor (solely for the limited section set forth therein) will enter into a First Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of MetalCo (the “A&R LLCA”), the form of which is attached to the Transaction Agreement.

The A&R LLCA will provide that, as of the Closing, the board of directors of MetalCo will consist of five directors: three designated by SH LLC, including the MetalCo chairperson, and two designated by the A-VL Investor. Each of SH LLC’s and the A-VL Investor’s director designation rights step down in connection with certain decreases in their MetalCo ownership, and each of SH LLC and the A-VL Investor may also designate up to two non-voting board observers for as long as such member may designate a director to the MetalCo board. The A-VL Investor has certain consent rights with respect to a number of fundamental matters under the A&R LLCA, which apply for as long as the A-VL Investor holds any MetalCo units and has other operational consent rights while the A-VL Investor holds at least 25% of its initial ownership of MetalCo units and prior to a Spin-Off (as defined below) or a sale of MetalCo. The MetalCo chairperson will be Anthony J. Allott, the Non-Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

The A&R LLCA will also provide that distributions from MetalCo will be made pro rata, at times and in amounts determined by the MetalCo board, to be evaluated on at least a quarterly basis, to the extent MetalCo has distributable cash and its senior secured credit agreement permits, along with quarterly tax distributions. The A-VL Investor will also be entitled to certain priority payments in amounts set forth in the A&R LLCA, payable out of distributions (other than tax distributions) that would otherwise be payable to SH LLC until such priority payments have been paid in full.

Pursuant to the terms of the A&R LLCA, SH LLC will have the right (but not the obligation), in its sole discretion, to effect either a spin-off of MetalCo or a spin-off of Silgan’s non-MetalCo businesses (which would exclude MetalCo and its subsidiaries), in each case that is intended to be tax-free (a “Spin-Off”); provided, that a Spin-Off may not be consummated prior to the two year anniversary of the Closing without the consent of both SH LLC and the A-VL Investor. In addition, on or prior to the date that is forty-two (42) months after the Closing, and each annual anniversary of such date thereafter, the A-VL Investor may (i) propose that SH LLC initiate a Spin-Off (a “Spin-Off Request”) and (ii) indicate that, if SH LLC does not initiate a Spin-Off, the A-VL Investor intends to exercise its right to cause SH LLC to purchase at least 20% and up to 33.33% of the A-VL Investor’s initial units in MetalCo (or, if the A-VL Investor then holds less than 20% of its initial units in MetalCo, all of the A-VL Investor’s units in MetalCo) (the “Conditional Liquidity Right”) during the next Conditional Liquidity Window (as defined below). The “Conditional Liquidity Window” in the A&R LLCA is the 30-day period following the four (4) year anniversary of the Closing and each annual anniversary thereafter. If the A-VL Investor does not deliver a timely Spin-Off

Request, the A-VL Investor may not exercise the Conditional Liquidity Right during the next Conditional Liquidity Window. A Spin-Off Request will not constitute an exercise of the Conditional Liquidity Right by the A-VL Investor nor an obligation of the A-VL Investor to exercise the Conditional Liquidity Right. If the A-VL Investor does deliver such Spin-Off Request and then also exercises its Conditional Liquidity Right by delivering written notice thereof during the next Conditional Liquidity Window (the “Conditional Liquidity Notice”), SH LLC will be obligated to purchase either the amount of equity interests specified in the A-VL Investor’s Spin-Off Request or, at SH LLC’s option, up to 150% of such equity interests specified in the A-VL Investor’s Spin-Off Request. The closing of SH LLC’s purchase under the Conditional Liquidity Right will be suspended until the date that is six months following the delivery of the Conditional Liquidity Notice if Silgan publicly announces that it is evaluating or pursuing a Spin-Off within 90 days following the A-VL Investor’s delivery of its Conditional Liquidity Notice. If the Spin-Off is consummated prior to six months following the delivery of the Conditional Liquidity Notice (the “Spin-Off Period”), the Conditional Liquidity Right automatically terminates. Conversely, if the Spin-Off is not consummated prior to the expiration of the Spin-Off Period, SH LLC will be obligated to consummate the purchase of the specified A-VL Investor units after the end of the Spin-Off Period as provided in the A&R LLCA.

Before an initial public offering of MetalCo or a Spin-Off, neither SH LLC nor the A-VL Investor may transfer MetalCo units except to their respective affiliates, or with the other party’s prior consent. After the tenth anniversary of the Closing or at any time where the A-VL Investor owns less than 25% of its original MetalCo units, SH LLC may effect a sale of MetalCo and the A-VL Investor would be subject to a customary drag-along obligation to sell its units in such sale, subject to certain protections for the A-VL Investor.

After the tenth anniversary of the Closing or at any time the A-VL Investor no longer holds at least 25% of its initial units in MetalCo, and provided a Spin-Off has not occurred, SH LLC will have the right to purchase all of the A-VL Investor’s remaining units in MetalCo.

The purchase price for the A-VL Investor’s units with respect to the Conditional Liquidity Right or SH LLC’s rights to otherwise purchase the A-VL Investor’s units will be based on an implied equity value equal to the enterprise value of MetalCo calculated by applying an 8.25x multiple to the last twelve months of MetalCo’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter, less net debt and subject to other customary adjustments, with such implied equity value allocated among the holders of MetalCo units as if distributed in a hypothetical sale in accordance with the distribution provisions of the A&R LLCA.

The foregoing description of the A&R LLCA does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the A&R LLCA, which is filed as Exhibit 10.5 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Consulting Agreement with Anthony J. Allott

On the Signing Date, Silgan entered into a consulting agreement with Anthony J. Allott, the Non-Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Consulting Agreement”). Under the Consulting Agreement, Mr. Allott has been engaged as an independent consultant to, prior to the Closing, assist with preparing for the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement and the Trivium

Purchase Agreement, including assisting with concluding other transaction documents, assisting the Company’s team in fulfilling closing conditions, serving as the Company’s primary point of contact in coordinating regulatory clearances, overseeing the separation activities for the Metal Containers and Closures Business and the contributions by the Company to MetalCo of the Metal Containers and Closures Business, overseeing the preparation for the integration of Trivium with the Metal Containers and Closures Business, and assisting in monitoring the conduct and performance of Trivium prior to the Closing. In addition, following the Closing, Mr. Allott will serve, on Silgan’s behalf, as a Silgan-designated director and as the initial non-executive chairperson of the MetalCo board and, until a chief executive officer of MetalCo is named, interim CEO of MetalCo and provide operational support, oversight, integration and leadership assistance for the combined MetalCo businesses.

Mr. Allott’s compensation under the Consulting Agreement is payable by the Company and consists of (i) a consulting fee of $250,000 per month during the term of the Consulting Agreement (pro-rated for any partial month, as applicable) for the services to be provided by Mr. Allott as generally described above, which amount is reimbursable by MetalCo, (ii) an up-front fee of $250,000 per month in respect of the period from November 1, 2025 to the Signing Date (pro-rated for the month of the Signing Date), payable within 20 days after the Signing Date, in respect of Mr. Allott’s substantial services rendered during such period with respect to Mr. Allott’s assistance with the negotiation of the Transaction Agreement, the A&R LLCA, the Put Option Agreement, the Trivium Purchase Agreement, the MetalCo Debt Commitment Letter and the other agreements and documents entered into or to be entered into in connection therewith, assistance with and oversight of the due diligence review by Sponsor of the Metal Containers and Closures Business and the due diligence review by the Company of Trivium, and leadership and assistance with other pre-signing workstreams including transaction structuring, separation planning and financing matters for the transactions, and (iii) an additional fee of $150,000 per month from the Signing Date until the Closing (pro-rated for any partial month, as applicable), contingent upon the closings occurring under both the Transaction Agreement and the Trivium Purchase Agreement, payable following such closings, in consideration of the extraordinary efforts required in connection with the execution of the various transaction agreements entered into or to be entered into for the transactions and the consummation of the closings under both the Transaction Agreement and Trivium Purchase Agreement. Mr. Allott will also be entitled to reimbursement of reasonable, documented out-of-pocket travel and accommodation expenses. The parties to the Consulting Agreement have also agreed to have further good faith discussions, as required under the Consulting Agreement, with respect to the amount of the consulting fees payable under the Consulting Agreement and with respect to a bonus payable to Mr. Allott under the Consulting Agreement pursuant to a bonus plan to be approved by the Company. Mr. Allott may also receive equity incentive compensation in the form of profits interests in MetalCo subject to the Company’s and MetalCo’s approval.

The Consulting Agreement is effective until terminated in accordance with its terms. The Consulting Agreement will automatically terminate if the Transaction Agreement or the Trivium Purchase Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing or the Put Option expires without being exercised.

The foregoing description of the Consulting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Consulting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.6 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided, for purposes of this Agreement, the following rules of interpretation shall apply:

(i) Calculation of Time Period. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any

act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded. If the last day of such period is a non-Business Day, the period in

question shall end at 5:00 PM Eastern Time on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to (A) any notices required to be delivered by a specific date under this Agreement or (B) any notices

delivered by email in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The word “day” shall mean “calendar day” unless “Business Day” is expressly identified. The terms “year” and

(ii) Dollars. Any reference in this Agreement to “$”

shall mean U.S. dollars. The specification of any dollar amount in the representations and warranties or otherwise in this Agreement or in the Exhibits or the Silgan Disclosure Schedules is not intended and shall not be deemed to be an admission or

acknowledgment of the materiality of such amounts or items, nor shall the same be used in any dispute or controversy between the Parties to determine whether any obligation, item or matter (whether or not described herein or included in the Silgan

Disclosure Schedules) is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement.

(iii) Exhibits/Schedules. The

Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement and the Silgan Disclosure Schedules referred to herein are an integral part of this Agreement and are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein. Any matter or

item disclosed on one schedule or section of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to have been disclosed on each other schedule or section of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, in which it is reasonably apparent on the face of

such disclosure that it is responsive to such other schedule or section of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, notwithstanding the lack of any cross reference, and such information shall be deemed to qualify such other schedule or section of

the Silgan Disclosure Schedules. Disclosure of any item on any schedule or section of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules shall not constitute an admission, indication, acknowledgment or representation that such item or matter is material,

establish any standard of materiality, define further the meaning of any terms defined in Article I (and, in particular, the inclusion of any item in the Silgan Disclosure Schedules shall not, in and of itself, be a basis for taking such item

into account in determining if such item would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or whether there has been a Material Adverse Effect) or be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment or representation that any such matter is

required to be disclosed. No disclosure on a schedule or section of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules relating to a possible breach or violation of any Contract, Law or Order shall be construed as an admission, indication, acknowledgment or

representation that a breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. Disclosure of any matter or item in any schedule or section of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules shall not constitute an acknowledgement that any such matter or item is

required to be disclosed. Any capitalized terms used in any schedule or section of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules or Schedule or Exhibit of this Agreement but not otherwise defined therein shall be defined as set forth in this Agreement.

(iv) Gender and Number. Any reference in this Agreement to gender shall include all genders, and words imparting the

singular number only shall include the plural and vice versa.

(v) Headings. The provision of a table of contents,

the division of this Agreement or the Silgan Disclosure Schedules into Articles, Sections and other subdivisions and the insertion of headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect or be utilized in construing or interpreting

this Agreement or the Silgan Disclosure Schedules. All references in this Agreement or the Silgan Disclosure Schedules to any “Section” or “Article” are to the corresponding Section or Article of this

Agreement or the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, as applicable, unless otherwise specified.

(vi) Herein. The words “herein,”

“hereinafter,” “hereof,” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear unless the context otherwise requires.

(vii) Including. The word “including” or any variation thereof means (unless the context of its usage

otherwise requires) “including, without limitation” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it.

(viii) Reflected On or Set Forth In. An item arising with respect to a specific representation or warranty shall be

deemed to be “reflected on” or “set forth in” a balance sheet or financial statements, to the extent any such phrase appears in such representation or warranty, if (A) there is a reserve, accrual or other

similar item underlying a number on such balance sheet or financial statements that related to the subject matter of such representation or warranty, (B) such item is otherwise specifically set forth on the balance sheet or financial statements

or (C) such item is reflected on the balance sheet or financial statements and is specifically set forth in the notes thereto.

(ix) And/Or. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, when used herein “or” shall not be exclusive

(i.e., “or” shall mean “and/or”).

(x) Amendments. Unless expressly indicated

otherwise, references to a particular statute or regulation shall include all rules and regulations thereunder and any successor statute, rule or regulation, in each case, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time. References

to any agreement, including this Agreement, or contract referenced herein or in the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, will be a reference to such agreement or contract, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

(xi) Person. References to any Person shall be deemed to mean and include the successors and permitted assigns of such

Person (or, in the case of a Governmental Body, Persons succeeding to the relevant functions of such Person).

(xii)

Written. References to “written” or “in writing” shall include in electronic form.

(xiii)

Made Available. Any document will be deemed “delivered”, “provided” or “made available” (or where similar words are used to describe any document or information provided by SHI or any Acquired Company)

within the meaning of this Agreement if such document is (A) accessible in the electronic data room hosted by Data Site for Project Vulcan (“Data Room”) or otherwise delivered to MetalCo,

A-VL Holdings or any of their respective Affiliates or advisors (including the advisors identified in the “MetalCo” and “AIP” columns of the Advisor Matrix attached as Exhibit A to the

Cost Sharing Agreement), in either case, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of this Agreement, or (B) delivered in writing (including by e-mail) to legal counsel to MetalCo or A-VL Holdings (including Sidley Austin LLP or Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

(xiv) Time of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence with respect

to any notices or payments required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(xv) Materiality of Conditions. The

occurrence, satisfaction or performance of (and the consequences of the failure to occur, satisfy or perform) each condition contained in this Agreement was a material part of the agreed exchange between the Parties; and to the extent the

occurrence, satisfaction or performance of any such conditions is required by a specific date and time, time is of the essence in the occurrence, satisfaction or performance of all such conditions.

(b) The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of

intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person.

Amount”), (b) the Closing Cash Amounts (such estimate, the “Estimated Closing Cash Amounts”), (c) the Closing Silgan Transaction Expenses (such estimate, the “Estimated Closing Silgan Transaction

Expenses”), (d) the Closing Debt (such estimate, the “Estimated Closing Debt”), (e) the resulting Aggregate Adjustment Amount (the “Estimated Aggregate Adjustment Amount”) and (f) Silgan

Distribution Amount, in each case, based upon the accounting books and records of SHI and its Affiliates and in accordance with this Agreement, including the Sample Working Capital Schedule and the Transaction Accounting Principles, and (y) the

SCF Receivables (the “Estimated SCF Receivables”), the SCF Offset Amount (the “Estimated SCF Offset Amount”) and the resulting Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount (the “Estimated Silgan Share of SCF

Offset Amount”) and Remaining Share of SCF Offset Amount (the “Estimated Remaining Share of SCF Offset Amount”), in each case, based upon the accounting books and records of SHI and its Affiliates and in accordance with

this Agreement and GAAP. The Closing Statement shall be accompanied by reasonable supporting detail and documentation and SHI shall consider in good faith any comments provided by MetalCo. The Estimated Working Capital Adjustment Amount, the

Estimated Closing Cash Amounts, the Estimated Closing Silgan Transaction Expenses and the Estimated Closing Debt shall be used to calculate the Estimated Aggregate Adjustment Amount. The Estimated SCF Receivables shall be used to calculate the

Estimated SCF Offset Amount, the Estimated Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount and the Estimated Remaining Share of SCF Offset Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the A-VL Holdings Investment Amount is fixed

pursuant to its definition and shall not be adjusted by any of the foregoing estimates. No later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of the Closing Statement, MetalCo shall provide to SHI a detailed funds flow memorandum in Excel format

(including all underlying calculations, formulas and amounts therein) setting forth all payments to be made by or on behalf of the Parties at Closing in accordance with this Agreement. MetalCo shall not be responsible for and shall be entitled to

Representatives have any liability to any Person (including SHI, Silgan Holdings or SIHBV) in connection with any claims relating to any alleged inaccuracy or miscalculation associated with the Closing Statement and the information contained therein

or payments made by any Person in accordance therewith.

2.5 Post-Closing Statement.

(a) Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing Date, SHI shall deliver to MetalCo a written statement (the

“Post-Closing Statement”), setting forth its good-faith calculation of (i) the Working Capital Adjustment Amount, the Closing Cash Amounts, the Closing Silgan Transaction Expenses, the Closing Debt and the resulting Aggregate

Adjustment Amount, in each case prepared in a manner consistent with the definitions in this Agreement, the Sample Working Capital Schedule and the Transaction Accounting Principles, and (ii) the SCF Receivables, the SCF Offset Amount, the

Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount and the Remaining Share of SCF Offset Amount, in each case, prepared in a manner consistent with the definitions in this Agreement and GAAP, and in each case of clause (i) and (ii), and based upon the

accounting books and records of the Acquired Companies, together with reasonable supporting detail.

(b) Within ninety (90) days

following receipt by MetalCo of the Post-Closing Statement (such period, the “Review Period”), MetalCo shall deliver written notice to SHI of any dispute MetalCo has with respect to the calculation, preparation or content of the

Post-Closing Statement (the “Dispute Notice”); provided that if MetalCo does not deliver any Dispute Notice to SHI within such Review Period, the Post-Closing Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties.

The Dispute Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail (i) any item on the Post-Closing Statement that MetalCo disputes and (ii) MetalCo’s estimate of the correct amount of such item. Any items not disputed or objected to in the

Dispute Notice timely delivered by MetalCo to SHI shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Parties. The Post-Closing Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Parties and shall become final and binding upon the Parties as of the

expiration of the Review Period with respect to any matters set forth therein not then subject to an unresolved dispute set forth in the Dispute Notice. Upon receipt by SHI of a Dispute Notice, MetalCo and SHI shall negotiate in good faith to

resolve any dispute set forth therein. All such discussions and communications related thereto shall (unless otherwise agreed by MetalCo and SHI) be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule, and any

resolution by them agreed to in writing as to any disputed amounts shall be final, binding and conclusive. If MetalCo and SHI fail to resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice (the “Dispute

Resolution Period”), then, within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of the Dispute Resolution Period, KPMG, or if not available or unwilling to accept the engagement, then a nationally recognized firm of independent

certified public accountants reasonably acceptable to MetalCo and SHI (other than SHI’s accountants, A-VL Holdings’ accountants or MetalCo’s accountants) (the “Independent Accounting

Firm”) shall be engaged to resolve any such dispute; provided that, if MetalCo and SHI are unable to mutually agree on an accounting firm to serve as the Independent Accounting Firm or such selected accounting firm is unwilling or

unable to perform the services required under this Section 2.5 and MetalCo and SHI are unable to mutually agree on another accounting firm to serve as the Independent Accounting Firm, then each of MetalCo and SHI shall

select a nationally

recognized major accounting firm, and the two firms will mutually select a third nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants to serve as the Independent Accounting

Firm. MetalCo and SHI each agree to promptly sign an engagement letter, in commercially reasonable form, as may reasonably be required by the Independent Accounting Firm. As promptly as practicable, and in any event not more than fifteen

(15) days following the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm, MetalCo and SHI shall each prepare and submit a written presentation detailing each Party’s complete statement of proposed resolution of each issue still in dispute to

the Independent Accounting Firm (it being understood that the content of each such presentation shall be limited to whether the Working Capital Adjustment Amount, the Closing Cash Amounts, the Closing Silgan Transaction Expenses, the Closing Debt

and the resulting Aggregate Adjustment Amount were properly calculated in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement, the Sample Working Capital Schedule and the Transaction Accounting Principles, whether the SCF Receivables and the resulting

SCF Offset Amount, Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount and Remaining Share of SCF Offset Amount were properly calculated in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement and GAAP, the proposed resolution of each disputed issue by such Party and

reasonable supporting detail for the foregoing). MetalCo and SHI shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to, as soon as practicable after the submission of the presentations described in the immediately preceding sentence and in any event not

more than twenty (20) days following such presentations, acting as an expert in accounting and not as an arbitrator, make a final determination, binding on the Parties to this Agreement, of the appropriate amount of each of the line items that

remain in dispute as indicated in the Dispute Notice. None of the Parties, nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have any ex parte communications or meetings with the Independent Accounting Firm regarding the subject matter hereof

without the other Party’s prior written consent. The Independent Accounting Firm shall agree that between the time MetalCo delivered the Dispute Notice and the date on which any disputed item was submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm,

MetalCo and SHI and their respective Representatives may have exchanged certain proposals relating to the disputed items that were intended solely for purposes of facilitating settlement discussions, and such proposals were confidential and were

provided solely on the condition and understanding that such proposals would not be permitted to be disclosed in any court or arbitration hearing or in respect of the Independent Accounting Firm’s engagement in the dispute, and the Independent

Accounting Firm will be instructed to disregard any evidence of such settlement proposals and negotiations in its consideration of the disputed items. With respect to each disputed line item, the Independent Accounting Firm shall only assign a value

to each disputed item equal to the value claimed by either SHI or MetalCo. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited to (x) whether any disputed determinations of

the Working Capital Adjustment Amount, the Closing Cash Amounts, the Closing Silgan Transaction Expenses, the Closing Debt and the resulting Aggregate Adjustment Amount were properly calculated in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement

and the Transaction Accounting Principles and (y) whether any disputed determinations of the SCF Receivables and the resulting SCF Offset Amount, the Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount and Remaining Share of SCF Offset Amount were properly

calculated in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement and GAAP. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be allocated to be paid by SHI, on the one hand, and MetalCo, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that

the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party, as determined by the Independent Accounting Firm. For example,

if MetalCo claims in a Dispute Notice that the sum of the Aggregate Adjustment Amount and the Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount is $1,000 greater than the amount determined by SHI in the

Post-Closing Statement, and if the Independent Accounting Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding MetalCo $600 of the $1,000 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm will be allocated 60% (i.e., 600 ÷

1,000) to SHI and 40% (i.e., 400 ÷ 1,000) to MetalCo. All determinations made by the Independent Accounting Firm, and the Post-Closing Statement, as modified by the Independent Accounting Firm, will, absent manifest error or fraud, be final,

conclusive and binding on the Parties. The Parties agree that any adjustment as determined pursuant to this Section 2.5(b) shall be implemented as an adjustment to (and true-up

payment in respect of) the Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount, the Remaining Share of SCF Offset Amount and/or Silgan Distribution Amount in accordance with Section 2.5(d).

with and promptly make available to each other and their respective Representatives, to the extent requested, all personnel, information, records, data and working papers (subject to customary confidentiality agreements and access letters, as

applicable), and shall permit reasonable access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Closing Statement or Post-Closing Statement, as applicable, and the resolution of

any disputes thereunder; provided that any Party may withhold any document (or portions thereof) or information that may constitute privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product, the transfer of which, or the provision of

access to which, on the advice of legal counsel, would reasonably be expected to risk a waiver of such privilege or if the provision of access to such document (or portion thereof) or information, on the advice of legal counsel, would reasonably be

expected to conflict with applicable Law (it being agreed, that, in the event any of the restrictions in the foregoing apply, the disclosing Party shall provide the other Party with a reasonably detailed description and summary of the information

not provided and cooperate in good faith with such other Party to design and implement alternative disclosure arrangements to enable such other Party and its Representatives to evaluate any such information without resulting in such violation or

jeopardizing such attorney-client privilege or contravening such Laws).

(d) If the Aggregate Adjustment Amount as finally determined

pursuant to this Section 2.5 (the “Final Aggregate Adjustment Amount”) shall exceed the Estimated Aggregate Adjustment Amount, then MetalCo shall distribute or cause to be distributed an amount in cash

equal to such excess to Silgan Holdings by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by SHI to MetalCo, which distribution the Parties intend to treat as an upward adjustment to the Silgan

Distribution Amount. If the Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.5 (the “Final Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount”) shall exceed the Estimated Silgan Share of

SCF Offset Amount, then MetalCo shall distribute or cause to be distributed an amount in cash equal to such excess to Silgan Holdings by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by SHI to MetalCo,

which distribution the Parties intend to treat as an upward adjustment to the Silgan Distribution Amount. If the Estimated Aggregate Adjustment Amount shall exceed the Final Aggregate Adjustment Amount, then SHI shall, or shall cause Silgan Holdings

to, pay an amount in cash equal to such excess to MetalCo by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by MetalCo to SHI. If the Estimated Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount shall exceed the Final

Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount, then SHI shall, or shall cause Silgan Holdings to, pay an amount in cash equal to such excess to MetalCo by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by MetalCo to

SHI.

(e) Any such payments under Section 2.5(d) are to be made within

five (5) Business Days of the date on which (i) the Working Capital Adjustment Amount, Closing Cash Amounts, Closing Silgan Transaction Expenses, Closing Debt and the resulting Aggregate Adjustment Amount, and (ii) the SCF

Receivables, the SCF Offset Amount and the resulting Silgan Share of SCF Offset Amount and the Remaining Share of SCF Offset Amount, in each case, are finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.5, and any amounts owing

pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) shall be paid in full, without any set-off or deduction or withholding for any amounts (except as provided in Section 2.6).

2.6 Withholding. MetalCo, A-VL Holdings and each of their respective Affiliates and agents

shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted and withheld, from any payments made hereunder any and all Taxes, if any, that such Party is required to deduct and withhold under any provision of applicable Laws. Any Party

intending to deduct or withhold any amounts from any payment to SHI hereunder (other than in respect of any amounts treated as compensation for applicable Tax purposes) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) notify SHI of such

intention at least five (5) Business Days prior to making such deduction or withholding and (b) cooperate with SHI to reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding to the extent permitted by applicable Law, including by affording

SHI a reasonable opportunity to provide any form, certificate or other documentation establishing an available exemption from or reduction in such deduction or withholding. The Parties acknowledge that, as of the date hereof, assuming delivery by

SHI of the properly executed IRS Form W-9, described in Section 2.3(a)(iii), no deduction or withholding for U.S. federal income Tax purposes is expected to be required in respect of

any payment to SHI pursuant to this Agreement, including the Silgan Distribution Amount pursuant to Section 2.1(g), absent a change in Tax Laws. To the extent that any amounts are deducted or withheld under this

Section 2.6, such amounts shall be duly and timely deposited with or paid to the appropriate Taxing Authority and treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such

deduction or withholding was made.

2.7 Post-Closing Register Updates. After the Closing, SHI and MetalCo shall procure that the

Notary updates the shareholders’ register of MIHBV. After the Closing, SHI and MetalCo shall procure that the Notary updates the Dutch Trade Register with the relevant resignations, appointments, change(s) in shareholder(s), ultimate

beneficial owner(s) and MIHBV’s address and/or amended articles of association (as applicable).

the confidential information of the Acquired Companies (unless such Owned IP is owned by an Acquired Company by operation of Law).

SHI or a Retained Company is the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the registered Licensed Trademarks. SHI has the right, power and authority to grant, on behalf of itself and the Retained Companies, the licenses

and other rights granted under the IP License Agreement. Neither SHI nor any Retained Company has granted to any Person any license, right or interest in or to any Licensed Trademark that conflicts with the licenses and other rights granted to

MetalCo and its Subsidiaries under the IP License Agreement. Except as would not be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole, there is no Legal Proceeding pending or, to the Knowledge of SHI, threatened

counterparty thereto and is in full force and effect, subject to the Equitable Exceptions, except for such failures to be legal, valid and binding or in full force and effect that would not reasonably be expected to be material, individually or in

the aggregate, to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole. Each Acquired Company party to a Material Contract has performed in all material respects the obligations required to be performed by it under each Material Contract and none of the

Acquired Companies, nor to the Knowledge of SHI, any other party thereto, is in material breach of, or in material default under, any such Material Contract, and no event has occurred within the last twelve (12) months that with notice or lapse

of time or both would constitute such a material breach or material default thereunder by an Acquired Company, or, to the Knowledge of SHI, any other party thereto, except for such breaches and defaults that would not reasonably be expected to be

material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole. As of the date of this Agreement, no Acquired Company has received or delivered written notice of any material violation or default under any Material Contract.

SHI has made available to MetalCo true and correct in all material respects copies of each Material Contract, in each case, as amended or otherwise modified and in

effect through the date of this Agreement. Except as would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole, as of the date

of this Agreement, no party to any Material Contract has exercised any termination, cancellation or non-renewal of rights with respect thereto and no such party has given written notice of termination,

cancellation or non-renewal with respect to any Material Contract.

4.14 Employee Benefit

Plans.

(a) Schedule 4.14(a) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules sets forth a true, correct and complete list of each Benefit

Plan and separately identifies each Foreign Benefit Plan and the non-U.S. jurisdiction applicable to such Foreign Benefit Plan. With respect to each Benefit Plan, SHI has made available to MetalCo correct and

complete copies (to the extent applicable) of: (i) all plan documentation (or, with respect to any unwritten Benefit Plan, a written summary thereof), including all amendments thereto; (ii) the three most recent annual reports on Form 5500

(together with all accompanying schedules and financial statements) filed with the IRS; (iii) the most recent summary plan description and all summaries of material modifications thereto; (iv) each trust agreement and insurance or group

Governmental Body during the past six (6) years.

(b) (i) All Benefit Plans that are intended to be tax qualified under

Section 401(a) of the Code (each, a “Company Retirement Plan”) are so qualified and have received a currently effective favorable determination letter; and (ii) except as would not reasonably be expected to be,

individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole, no event has occurred and no circumstances exist that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the qualification of such Company Retirement Plan or

result in a penalty under the Internal Revenue Service Closing Agreement Program if discovered during an IRS audit or investigation.

(c)

Except as would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole, all Benefit Plans have been established, maintained, operated, and administered in accordance with their terms

and applicable Laws. There are no material claims, lawsuits, audits, inquiries, examinations, investigations, or arbitrations (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or threatened in writing against, with respect to, or relating to any of

the Benefit Plans.

(d) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.14(d) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, for the past six

(6) years, no Acquired Company or ERISA Affiliate sponsors, contributes to, has an obligation to contribute to, or has any liability (including contingent liability) with respect to: (i) a plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, including any

defined benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(35) of ERISA) or a plan subject to Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code (any such plan other than a Multiemployer Plan, a “US Pension Plan”) or (ii) a

multiple employer plan subject to Section 4063 or 4064 of ERISA. No Acquired Company sponsors, contributes to, has an obligation to contribute to, or has any liability (including contingent liability) with respect

to a multiple employer welfare arrangement (as defined in Section 3(40)(A) of ERISA) or a voluntary employees’ beneficiary association under Section 501(c)(9) of the Code. Except

as would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole, no Acquired Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has any liability as a result of a violation of COBRA.

(e) Schedule 4.14(e) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules sets forth a true and complete list of each US Pension Plan. With respect to

each US Pension Plan, (i) no Legal Proceeding has been initiated to terminate such plan; (ii) there has been no “reportable event” (as such term is defined in Section 4043(c) of ERISA); (iii) no liability under Title IV or

Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code has been incurred by an Acquired Company or any ERISA Affiliate that has not been satisfied in full, no condition exists that presents a risk to an Acquired Company or any ERISA Affiliate of

incurring any such liability and no such liability will become a liability of an Acquired Company or any ERISA Affiliate; (iv) such US Pension Plan’s benefit liabilities under Section 4001(a)(16) of ERISA do not exceed the current

value of such plan’s assets, determined in accordance with the assumptions used for funding the plan pursuant to Section 412 and Section 430 of the Code for the applicable plan year; (v) no such US Pension Plan has been required

to file information pursuant to Section 4010 of ERISA for the current or most recently completed year; (vi) each required installment or any other payment required under Section 412 of the Code or Section 303 of ERISA has been

made before the applicable due date; (vii) no such US Pension Plan has applied for or received a waiver of the minimum funding standards or an extension of any amortization period within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Sections

302 or 303 of ERISA; (viii) there are no funding-based limitations (within the meaning of Section 436 of the Code) currently in effect; and (ix) the assets of each such US Pension Plan are sufficient to satisfy all obligations of such

US Pension Plan if such US Pension Plan were to terminate as of the date of this Agreement.

(f) Schedule 4.14(f) of the Silgan

Disclosure Schedules contains a list of each Multiemployer Plan to which an Acquired Company or any ERISA Affiliate sponsors, has sponsored, has any liability (including contingent liability), or contributes (or has an obligation to contribute to

within the past six (6) years) including (i) the most recent estimate provided by the Multiemployer Plan of the withdrawal liability that would be assessed against such Acquired Company or ERISA Affiliate upon a withdrawal from such

Multiemployer Plan and (ii) the annual contributions required to be made (and, if less, the amounts actually paid) by an Acquired Company or ERISA Affiliate to such Multiemployer Plan for the current plan year and the last plan year. Except as

set forth in SHI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, no Acquired Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or received notice of any claim of a

“complete withdrawal” or a “partial withdrawal” (as such terms are defined in Sections 4203 and 4205, respectively, of ERISA) since the effective date of such Sections 4203 and 4205 with respect to any Multiemployer Plan.

Except as set forth in SHI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, with respect to each Multiemployer Plan, (i) all contributions have been made in all

material respects as required by the terms of such plan, the terms of any applicable collective bargaining agreement and applicable Law, (ii) none of the Acquired Companies or ERISA Affiliates has any material Liability under Sections 4204 or

4212(c) of ERISA and (iii) none of the Acquired Companies or ERISA Affiliates has received any notification in writing that any such plan has been terminated, is insolvent (within the meaning of Section 4245 of ERISA) or is in endangered

or critical status (within the meaning of Section 437

of the Code or Section 305 of ERISA), and to the Knowledge of SHI no such plan is reasonably expected to be terminated, insolvent or in endangered or critical status. To the Knowledge of

SHI, there has been no mass withdrawal (within the meaning of Section 4219(c)(1)(D) of ERISA) for which the Acquired Companies would reasonably be expected to have any material Liability. With respect to each Multiemployer Plan, none of the

Acquired Companies or ERISA Affiliates has experienced a reduction in contribution base units in the three consecutive years prior to the date of this Agreement that would, if continued, reasonably be expected to result in a material partial

withdrawal assessment, whether such liability is contingent or otherwise. None of the Multiemployer Plans has notified in writing any of the Acquired Companies or any ERISA Affiliates of any failure to satisfy minimum funding standards.

(g) With respect to each Benefit Plan for which a separate fund of assets is or is required to be maintained, full and timely payment and

contribution has been made of all amounts due and required under the terms of each such Benefit Plan or applicable Law, except as would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as

a whole. All premiums, fees and administrative expenses required to be paid under or in connection with the Benefit Plans for the period on or before the Closing Date have been fully and timely paid, except as would not reasonably be expected to be,

individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole. No fiduciary (within the meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA) of any Benefit Plan subject to Part 4 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA has committed a breach

of fiduciary duty with respect to that Benefit Plan that could subject an Acquired Company or an employee of an Acquired Company to any liability (including liability on account of an indemnification obligation), except as would not reasonably be

expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole. No Acquired Company has incurred any excise Taxes under Chapter 43 of the Code with respect to any Benefit Plan and nothing has occurred with

respect to any Benefit Plan that could reasonably be expected to subject any Acquired Company to any such Taxes.

(h) No Acquired Company

provides or has an obligation to provide, and none of the Benefit Plans provide, for post-employment medical, health, welfare or life insurance benefits for any current or former employee or any beneficiary of a current or former employee, except as

required by COBRA. No Benefit Plan or Acquired Company provides, or has any obligation to provide welfare benefits to any Person who is not a current or former employee of an Acquired Company, or a beneficiary thereof.

(i) Each Acquired Company has in all material respects complied with the applicable provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care

Act of 2010, as amended, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, as amended, to the extent applicable, including the employer shared responsibility provisions relating to the offer of “affordable” health coverage

that provides “minimum essential coverage” to “full-time” employees (as those terms are defined in Section 4980H of the Code and related regulations) and the applicable employer information reporting requirements under

Section 6055 of the Code and Section 6056 of the Code.

(j) Each Benefit Plan that is or has been a nonqualified deferred

compensation plan within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code has in all material respects been administered, operated and maintained in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and no Acquired Company is or has

been required to withhold or pay any material amount of Taxes as a result of a failure to comply with Section 409A of the Code. No Acquired Company has any obligation to make a “gross-up” or

similar payment in respect of any Taxes that may become payable under Section 409A of the Code.

(k) All Benefit Plans subject to the Laws of any jurisdiction outside of the United States

or which are maintained primarily for any current or former Acquired Company Employee or other service provider residing or working outside the United States (each, a “Foreign Benefit Plan”) (i) if they are intended to qualify for

special tax treatment, meet, in all material respects, all requirements for such treatment and, to the Knowledge of SHI, there are no existing circumstances or events that have occurred that would reasonably be expected to affect adversely the

special tax treatment with respect to such Foreign Benefit Plan, (ii) if they are intended to be funded or book-reserved, are fully funded or book reserved, as appropriate, based upon reasonable actuarial assumptions and the fair market value

of the assets of each Foreign Benefit Plan, the liability of each insurer for any Foreign Benefit Plan funded through insurance, or the book reserve established for any such Foreign Benefit Plan, together with any accrued contributions, is

sufficient to procure or provide for the accrued benefit obligations, as of the date of this Agreement, with respect to all current and former participants in each such Foreign Benefit Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations most

recently used to determine employer contributions to such Foreign Benefit Plan, and (iii) if intended or required to be qualified, approved or registered with a Governmental Body, are and have been so qualified, approved or registered and

nothing has occurred that would reasonably be expected to result in the loss of such qualification, approval or registration, as applicable, except in each case, as would not result in a material liability to the Acquired Companies, taken as a

whole. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.14(k) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, no Acquired Company has been a party to, a sponsoring employer of, or otherwise is under any material liability with respect to any defined benefit pension

scheme, any final salary scheme or any death, disability or retirement benefit calculated by reference to age, salary or length of service or any other item.

(l) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.14(l) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement

nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will, or could reasonably be expected to, either alone or in combination with any other event(s), (i) result in any payment becoming due, any cancellation of indebtedness, or any increase

in compensation or benefits, in each case, to any current or former employee, officer, director or other service provider of any Acquired Company (including severance pay or similar compensation), including under any Benefit Plan, or

(ii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment, funding or vesting of any benefits to any current or former employee, officer, director, or other service provider of the Acquired Companies. No amount paid or payable (whether in cash, in

property, or in the form of benefits) in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (either alone or in combination with another event) will be an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code.

No Acquired Company has any obligation to make a “gross-up” or similar payment in respect of any Taxes that may become payable under Section 4999 of the Code.

4.15 Labor.

(a) SHI has made available one or more lists, prepared in good faith from the books and records of SHI and the Acquired Companies, of all of

the Acquired Company Employees, which lists are true, correct and complete in all material respects, as of the respective dates on which such lists were prepared. The Acquired Company Employees are sufficient to run the Business in substantially the

same manner as prior to the Closing.

(b) The execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions will not require

notification or consultation with any works council, economic and social committee, labor union, association or other employee representative body that represents any employees of the Acquired Companies, except for such notification or consultation

the failure of which to obtain would not be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole.

(c)

No union or labor organization has made a pending demand for recognition and, to the Knowledge of SHI, there is no organizing activity involving any Acquired Company. Since the Lookback Date, there has not been, nor is there pending or, to the

Knowledge of SHI, threatened, any labor dispute between an Acquired Company and any works council, economic and social committee, labor union, association or other employee representative body or any strike, work stoppage, work slowdown or lockout

involving any employee of, or affecting any Acquired Company that would be material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole. There are no material unfair labor practice charges or material grievances or complaints pending or threatened in

conditions of employment of the Acquired Companies including all Laws relating to discrimination, fair labor standards, harassment, occupational health and safety, wrongful discharge, wages, hours, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification

(e) Since January 1, 2026, none of the Acquired Companies has (i) effectuated a “plant closing” (as defined in the WARN

Act) affecting any site of employment or one or more facilities or operating units within any site of employment, (ii) effectuated a “mass layoff” (as defined in the WARN Act), (iii) engaged in layoffs, furloughs, or employment

current plans to undertake any action that would trigger the WARN Act or any similar state, local, or non-U.S. equivalent applicable Law.

(f) The current employees of the Acquired Companies are authorized and have appropriate

documentation to work in the country in which they are located. Since the Lookback Date, (i) no Acquired Company has received written notice of any pending or threatened investigation by any branch of the department of U.S. Immigration and

(ii) no Acquired Company has received any “no match” notices from ICE, the Social Security Administration, or the IRS.

(h) Except as would not be reasonably expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Acquired Companies, taken as a whole,

there are no current pending or threatened in writing, and have not been since the Lookback Date, claims, charges, litigation, complaints, investigations or arbitrations relating to the employment or engagement, or termination thereof, of any

current or former employee, worker, officer, director, or individual independent contractor of the Acquired Companies or otherwise alleging violation of any Law related to labor or employment or relating to labor or employment matters and, to the

Knowledge of SHI, there are no circumstances likely to give rise to any such claims, charges, litigation, complaints, investigations or arbitrations.

(i) Since the Lookback Date, no Acquired Company has been a party to a relevant transfer for the purposes of the Transfer of Undertakings

(a) The Acquired Companies are, and since the Lookback Date have been, in compliance in all material respects with all Laws applicable to

their respective businesses or operations. Since the Lookback Date, no Acquired Company has received any written notice from any Governmental Body (including the FDA or any comparable foreign Governmental Body) alleging any violation of applicable

Law or containing any inspectional finding, deficiency notice, warning or untitled letter (including any FDA Form 483) or request for corrective or remedial action, in each case that would reasonably be expected to be material to the Acquired

Companies, taken as a whole.

7.1 Access

to Information.

(a) Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and applicable Law, prior to the Closing or earlier termination of this

Agreement, SHI shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, provide MetalCo and its Representatives, upon reasonable advance written notice, with access during normal business hours to the information, assets, premises, properties, books

(including pro forma Tax Returns and related work papers), Contracts, records and personnel of the Acquired Companies and the Business (including furnishing to MetalCo copies of such documents and information as MetalCo may reasonably request), for

the purposes of consummating the Transactions, planning and preparing for the integration and transition of the businesses of the Acquired Companies following the Closing (including operational, financial, information technology, human resources and

other functional integration and transition planning), and any other reasonable business purpose relating to the Transactions; provided that (i) any such access and activities shall be conducted in a manner not to unreasonably interfere

with the business or operations of the Acquired Companies and (ii) MetalCo and its Representatives shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with SHI and its Representatives and to minimize any disruption to the Business.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such access shall be permitted to the extent SHI determines in good faith following consultation with outside counsel that doing so would reasonably be likely to (A) require any Acquired

Company to disclose information that would reasonably be expected to jeopardize attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or similar privilege, or conflict with any confidentiality obligations to which such Acquired Company is bound,

(B) violate any agreement to which any Acquired Company is a party or (C) violate any applicable Law which any Acquired Company is subject to; provided that in any such case, SHI shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide

MetalCo with a reasonably detailed description of the information not provided and shall cooperate in good faith with MetalCo to design and implement alternative disclosure arrangements (including, to the extent applicable, entry into a joint

defense or common interest agreement, the seeking of a consent or waiver from any applicable third party, or the making of disclosure subject to redaction or on an outside counsel-only basis) that enable MetalCo to evaluate such information without

the consequence described in clause (A), (B) or (C). All requests for such access shall be directed to such Person as the Acquired Companies may designate in writing from time to time (collectively, the “Designated Contacts”).

Prior to the Closing, except in the Ordinary Course of Business (including pursuant to any existing commercial relationship) and not relating to or referencing the Transactions, without the prior written consent of SHI (which shall not be

unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and which shall be deemed given if SHI has not objected in writing within two (2) Business Days following MetalCo’s written request therefor), (1) none of MetalCo, A-VL Holdings or their respective Affiliates or Representatives shall contact any employee, contractor, supplier, customer, landlord or other material business relationship of any Acquired Company,

other than the Designated Contacts, and (2) MetalCo, A-VL Holdings and their respective Representatives shall have no right to perform invasive or

subsurface investigations of the properties or facilities of the Acquired Companies; provided, however, that clause (1) shall not restrict or prohibit any of the following, provided that any such contacts or communications

are coordinated by, and made together with, SHI: (w) contacts and communications with management and other employees of the Acquired Companies for purposes of integration and transition planning conducted in accordance with

Section 7.1(b), (x) any calls or meetings with customers, suppliers or landlords of any Acquired Company that have been coordinated with SHI (such coordination not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (y)

contacts or communications made in connection with seeking or obtaining any consent, approval or clearance of, or responding to any inquiry or request from, any Governmental Body; or (z) discussions with members of management or other employees

of the Acquired Companies regarding post-Closing employment, compensation, retention, equity or other incentive arrangements; provided, further, that clause (1) shall not restrict or prohibit any portfolio company or other

investment of AIP, LLC or any of its Affiliates (or any of their respective Representatives) from contacting or communicating with any employee, contractor, supplier, customer, landlord or other business relationship of any Acquired Company

(including any Acquired Company itself) in the ordinary course of business pursuant to, or in connection with entering into, any arm’s-length commercial arrangement (including, for the avoidance of

doubt, the negotiation, execution and performance of the commercial arrangements set forth on Schedule 7.1(a) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules), so long as such contacts or communications (a) are unrelated to the Transactions,

(b) are not made at the direction of MetalCo or A-VL Holdings in connection with the Transactions and (c) do not involve the use of any information made available to MetalCo or A-VL Holdings in connection with the Transactions.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Parties shall

establish and maintain a steering committee (the “Steering Committee”) comprising employees of the Acquired Companies who are subject matter experts with respect to the key functional areas of the Business and the business of the

Acquired Companies, together with Representatives of MetalCo and A-VL Holdings, in each case as reasonably agreed between the Parties. The Parties shall convene the Steering Committee on a regular basis and,

unless otherwise agreed, not less frequently than once per month (including, at any Party’s reasonable request, in person), for the purposes of integration, separation and transition planning and business planning in respect of the Business

and the Acquired Companies.

Acquired Companies or the Retained Companies, as applicable, to (i) provide the other Party and its Representatives, upon reasonable advance written notice and under reasonable circumstances, reasonable access, at the other Party’s

expense, under the supervision of the personnel of the Acquired Companies or the Retained Companies, as applicable, and in accordance with the reasonable procedures established by MetalCo or SHI, as applicable (including a requirement that any

third-party Person for whom access is requested enter into a customary access letter), to the appropriate officers, books and records (including all electronic data related thereto) in respect of or relating to the Business during normal business

hours, (ii) permit the other Party and its Representatives to make copies of any such books and records, (iii) furnish to the other Party and its Representatives any financial and operating data or other information relating to the

Business as reasonably requested by the other Party to the extent necessary for the preparation of insurance claims, financial statements, regulatory filings, Tax

Returns of the other Party or its Affiliates in respect of periods ending on or prior to the Closing, or in connection with any Legal Proceedings and (iv) if applicable, furnish to the other

Party and its Representatives access to any assets of the Business (and any financial or other information relating thereto) upon reasonable advance notice and solely to the extent required to meet the other Party’s and its Affiliates’

contractual obligations; provided that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the business of MetalCo, SHI and their respective Affiliates, including the Business or the Retained Business, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything

herein to the contrary, no such access shall be permitted to the extent it is determined upon consultation of outside counsel that doing so would reasonably be expected to (A) require MetalCo, SHI or any of their respective Affiliates to

disclose information that would reasonably be expected to jeopardize attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or similar privilege, or conflict with any confidentiality obligations to which MetalCo, SHI or any of their respective Affiliates

is bound, (B) violate any agreement to which MetalCo, SHI or any of their respective Affiliates is a party or (C) violate any applicable Law which MetalCo, SHI or any of their respective Affiliates is subject to; provided that in

any such case, MetalCo or SHI, as applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide the other Party with a reasonably detailed description of the information not provided and shall cooperate in good faith with the other Party to

design and implement alternative disclosure arrangements (including, to the extent applicable, entry into a joint defense or common interest agreement) that enable the other Party to evaluate such information without the consequence described in

clause (A), (B) or (C). MetalCo and SHI agree to cause the Acquired Companies and the Retained Companies, as applicable, to hold all the books and records relating to the Business existing on the Closing Date and not to destroy or dispose of any

thereof for a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date or such longer time as may be required by Law.

plans, long-term incentive arrangements, or severance plans, policies, or practices) under any employee benefit plan of MetalCo established following the Closing Date in which Acquired Company Employees are eligible to participate following the

Closing Date, except to the extent such credit would result in the duplication of benefits for the same period of service or such service was not recognized under an analogous Benefit Plan, MetalCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to credit

each Acquired Company Employee with his or her years of service with any Acquired Company and any predecessor entities based on such Acquired Company Employee’s hire date prior to Closing.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and unless otherwise permitted under applicable Law, the terms and conditions

of employment for any Acquired Company Employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement shall be governed by the applicable collective bargaining agreement until the expiration, modification or termination of such collective bargaining

agreement in accordance with its terms or applicable Law.

social committees, labor unions, associations or other employee representative bodies and relevant employees of any Acquired Company or their Representatives in connection with or otherwise in respect of the Transactions, including but not limited

to the Reorganization, any Restructuring Projects and/or any Separation Activity, (B) provide MetalCo and its Affiliates with any required information as reasonably requested in respect of, or for the purpose of, such information or

consultation process if required under applicable Law, (C) keep MetalCo and its Affiliates informed of the status of such information and consultation process and any material developments if required under applicable Law, including, to the

extent that any written documents, presentations or other materials are to be provided to any works council, economic and social committee, labor union, association or other employee representative body and (D) if required under applicable Law,

provide such materials to MetalCo and its Affiliates in advance and permit MetalCo and its Affiliates a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such materials before they are presented or provided to the works council, economic and social

committee, labor union, association or other employee representative body.

(d) As a condition to the obligations of MetalCo or any of its Affiliates under this

Section 7.7, SHI agrees that it shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective service providers to use commercially reasonable efforts to, provide MetalCo, its Affiliates and their respective service providers

with access to all information reasonably requested by MetalCo and its service providers to allow MetalCo to comply with the provisions of this Section 7.7.

(e) The provisions contained in this Section 7.7 shall not (i) be treated as an establishment, amendment or

other modification of any Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement, (ii) limit the right of MetalCo to terminate the employment of any employee at any time and for any reason or (iii) create any

third-party rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever in any employee or other service provider of any Acquired Company (or any beneficiaries or dependents thereof) or any other Person that is not a Party.

7.8 Certain Obligations in Respect of Financing.

Companies and their respective officers, managers, directors and employees to provide, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to direct its and their respective accountants, legal counsel and other Representatives to provide to MetalCo all

any high yield bonds issued in lieu of any credit facility contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter), including the following:

(i) causing appropriate members of the Acquired Companies’ senior management and other Representatives of SHI or the

Acquired Companies to participate in a reasonable number of meetings, conference calls, presentations, sessions with prospective Debt Financing Sources and rating agencies or other customary syndication activities at reasonable times and locations

warranty set forth in Section 5.8 is true and correct on and as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and other customary documents as MetalCo may reasonably request.

(b) Prior to the Closing, and provided that SHI and A-VL Holdings mutually agree to cause

MetalCo to issue any high yield bonds in lieu of any credit facility contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, SHI, A-VL Holdings and MetalCo shall cooperate in good faith with (i) causing MetalCo to

Debt Commitment Letter, including under any agreement or any document related to the Debt Financing that would not be reimbursed at the Closing, (C) enter into definitive agreements in

respect of the Debt Financing that would be effective prior to the Closing (other than customary authorization letters), (D) take any action that would conflict with, violate or result in a breach of or default under any Organizational Documents of

SHI or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies), any Transaction Document or any Law, (E) take any action that would be reasonably likely to subject any director, manager, officer or employee of SHI or any of its Affiliates

(including the Acquired Companies) to any personal liability, (F) provide access to or disclose information that SHI determines in good faith would reasonably be likely to jeopardize any attorney client privilege of, or conflict with any

confidentiality requirements applicable to, SHI or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies), (G) cause any director or manager of SHI or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) to pass resolutions or consents to

out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by SHI or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) in connection with the cooperation contemplated by

Section 7.8(a), including (i) reasonable attorneys’ fees and (ii) expenses of SHI’s accounting firms engaged to assist in connection with the Debt Financing. MetalCo shall indemnify and hold harmless

SHI and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies), and their respective Representatives, from and against any and all liabilities or losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing and any

information utilized in connection therewith, other than to the extent that any such liabilities or losses result from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of SHI, its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies), or their

respective Representatives or information provided by or on behalf of SHI or its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) for use in connection with the Debt Financing.

(f) SHI, the Acquired Companies and their respective Affiliates consent to the customary and reasonable use of the Acquired Companies’

reputation or goodwill of SHI, the Acquired Companies and their respective Affiliates.

(g) Without the prior written consent of MetalCo,

SHI shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries to, amend any of the Silgan Debt Facilities in a manner that would prevent the consummation of the Transactions or delay the consummation of the Transactions past the Termination Date.

(h) SHI will give MetalCo prompt written notice of the occurrence of any “Default” or “Event of Default” (each as

defined in the Silgan Debt Documents as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) promptly after it obtains knowledge thereof.

(i) If

the Transactions, including the incurrence of the debt and granting of Liens contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, are not permitted under any of the Silgan Debt Facilities, SHI shall either, in SHI’s sole discretion (i) repay,

replacement or modified debt facility would permit the Transactions.

(j) SHI shall have the right (but not the obligation), by delivering written notice to

MetalCo and A-VL Holdings no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, to elect to (i) incur, as of the Closing, (x) new third party debt arranged by SHI for an

aggregate principal amount up to $1,000,000,000 (“Third Party SHI Debt”) or (y) if permitted under the Debt Financing, a portion of the Debt Financing in an aggregate principal amount up to $1,000,000,000 (such amount elected

by SHI, the “SHI Debt Amount”), and (ii) have MetalCo assume in full, as of the Closing, the SHI Debt Amount pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to SHI, MetalCo and A-VL Holdings (the “Debt Assumption”) (provided, that in the case of clause (x), if required under the Debt Financing, MetalCo may immediately after the Debt Assumption repay such Third

Party SHI Debt with proceeds of the Debt Financing). SHI, MetalCo and A-VL Holdings shall reasonably cooperate to take any actions required by the Debt Financing Sources to permit the Debt Assumption if so

elected by SHI in accordance with this Section 7.8(j).

(k) SHI shall not, and shall not permit any of its

Subsidiaries (as defined in the Silgan Credit Agreement) to, make any Investment (as defined in the Silgan Credit Agreement) if, as a result of such Investment, SHI would not have sufficient capacity under Section 9.05(xiii) of the Silgan

Credit Agreement to make Investments to the extent necessary to consummate the Transactions.

7.9 Tax Matters.

(a) Certain Tax Elections; Reorganization. Except for the elections contemplated in the Reorganization Plan set forth on Exhibit

F (which sets forth each election, including each U.S. Company classification election pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3, to be made in connection with the Reorganization) or any

elections contemplated in Schedule 7.2 of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, no Party shall, and each Party shall cause its Affiliates not to, make, change or revoke any Tax election with respect to MetalCo or any Acquired Company that is

inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment or the Reorganization Plan, in each case, without the prior written consent of each of SHI and MetalCo. Subject to Section 7.22, SHI shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to,

effect each step of the Reorganization in accordance with the Reorganization Plan and in a manner consistent with the intended U.S. federal income Tax treatment of each such step set forth in the Reorganization Plan, and no Party shall take any

position inconsistent therewith.

(b) Transfer Taxes. Any Transfer Taxes shall be treated as Reorganization Costs. The Parties

required by applicable Law shall timely prepare and file any Tax Returns or other filings relating to Transfer Taxes, including any claim for exemption or exclusion from the application or imposition of any Transfer Taxes and MetalCo (or any

Subsidiary thereof) shall pay, on behalf of the Party filing such Tax Return, any and all Transfer Taxes related thereto, subject to Section 11.1.

Companies, SHI shall, and shall cause each of the Acquired Companies to, terminate, effective no later than the Closing, each Tax sharing, Tax allocation, Tax indemnity, Tax receivable or similar agreement or arrangement (other than (i) this

Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and (ii) customary commercial agreements the principal purpose of which does not relate to Taxes) to which SHI or any Acquired Company is a party or by which any of them is bound, such that none of

SHI or any Acquired Company shall have any liability or obligation thereunder from and after the Closing.

(d) Straddle Periods.

For all purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of Taxes attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of property, ad valorem and other similar Taxes

imposed on a periodic basis, be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the portion of such Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing

Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period, and (ii) in the case of all other Taxes, be determined on the basis of an interim closing of the books as of the end of the Closing Date; provided

that exemptions, allowances and deductions that are calculated on an annual basis shall be allocated on a per diem basis.

(e) Intended

Tax Treatment. The Parties agree that, for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes, it is intended that: (i) prior to the Closing, MetalCo be treated as an entity disregarded as separate from Silgan Holdings;

(ii) consistent with Situation 2 of Revenue Ruling 99-5, 1999-1 C.B. 434, (A) A-VL Holdings be treated as contributing the A-VL Holdings Investment Amount to MetalCo, as a newly formed partnership, in exchange for the MetalCo Units issued to A-VL Holdings, and (B) Silgan Holdings be treated

as contributing all of the assets of MetalCo (subject to its liabilities) to such newly formed partnership in exchange for the MetalCo Units held by Silgan Holdings, in each case, in a transaction described in Section 721(a) of the Code;

(iii) from and after the Closing, MetalCo be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income Tax purposes; (iv) if consummated, the Debt Assumption not be treated as a transfer of consideration pursuant to

a sale described in Section 707(a)(2)(B) of the Code, whether by reason of the assumed liabilities constituting “qualified liabilities” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations

Section 1.707-5(a)(6), determined, in the case of the refinancing of the Silgan Debt Facilities in an amount equal to the SHI Debt Amount, in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(c)) or one or more other exceptions under the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 707 of the Code, in each case, to the extent permitted under applicable Law; (v) to treat

any distribution or other transfer of money by MetalCo to Silgan Holdings (including the Silgan Distribution Amount, any distribution pursuant to Section 2.1(g)(ii) and any payment pursuant to

Section 2.5(d)) as a reimbursement of preformation capital expenditures under Treas. Reg. 1.707-4(d) (to the extent possible) or otherwise as a distribution not treated as part of a

sale described in Section 707(a)(2)(B) of the Code, by reason of one or more exceptions under the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 707 of the Code, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, and any other payment (not

described in the immediately preceding clause) made pursuant to Section 2.5, this Section 7.9 or Article X be treated as an adjustment to the consideration transferred to Silgan Holdings or

as a capital contribution to, or distribution by, MetalCo, as applicable (including, in the case of any payment by SHI or Silgan Holdings of the Silgan SCF Shortfall Amount pursuant to Section 2.1(g) or any payment pursuant

to Section 2.5(d), as an adjustment to, and a return of a portion of, the amounts distributed pursuant to Section 2.1(g)); (vi) the Remaining Share of SCF

Offset Amount and the Priority Payment Amount (as defined in the MetalCo LLC Agreement), be treated as an adjustment to the A-VL Holdings Investment

Amount, as applicable (clauses (i) through (vi), collectively, the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of

the Code or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law), each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, prepare and file all Tax Returns consistently with the Intended Tax

Treatment, and no Party shall take any position inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment on any Tax Return or in any audit, examination or other administrative or judicial proceeding.

(f) Tax Contests. MetalCo shall promptly notify SHI in writing upon receipt by MetalCo or any of its Subsidiaries (including any

Acquired Company) of notice of any Tax Proceeding relating to any Pre-Closing Indemnified Taxes or any other Taxes for which SHI is or may be liable pursuant to Section 10.2(c) or

Section 10.2(d) (a “Silgan Tax Contest”); provided that no failure or delay in providing such notice shall relieve SHI of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent SHI is actually

and materially prejudiced thereby. SHI shall control the conduct and defense of any Silgan Tax Contest, at its sole cost and expense, unless SHI notifies MetalCo in writing within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of the notice

described in the immediately preceding sentence of its intent to not control such Silgan Tax Contest, which election shall include a written acknowledgment by SHI of its obligation to indemnify the MetalCo Indemnified Parties with respect to such

Silgan Tax Contest pursuant to Section 10.2(c) or Section 10.2(d); provided, further, that (i) MetalCo shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in such

Silgan Tax Contest (including through counsel and other advisors of its own choosing), (ii) SHI shall keep MetalCo reasonably informed on a current basis of the status of such Silgan Tax Contest (including by promptly providing copies of all

material written correspondence with any Taxing Authority) and shall consider in good faith any comments provided by MetalCo and (iii) SHI shall not settle, compromise, concede or abandon such Silgan Tax Contest, in whole or in part, without

the prior written consent of MetalCo (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If SHI timely and validly elects to not control a Silgan Tax Contest, MetalCo shall control such Silgan Tax Contest, provided that

SHI shall have the participation and information rights described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, mutatis mutandis, and MetalCo shall not settle, compromise, concede or abandon such Silgan Tax Contest without the

prior written consent of SHI (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding the previous sentences in this Section 7.9(f), nothing in this Agreement shall permit MetalCo to have any

participation or any information rights related to any Silgan Tax Contest related to any affiliated, combined, consolidated, unitary or similar group that includes the SHI (or any Affiliate thereof), on the one hand, and an Acquired Company, on the

other hand, whereby the SHI (or any Affiliate thereof) is the common parent of such affiliated, combined, consolidated, unitary or similar group; provided that SHI shall (i) keep MetalCo reasonably informed with respect to any issue

therein relating to an Acquired Company (without any obligation to provide any consolidated or combined group Tax Return), (ii) not resolve any such issue in a manner binding on, or that would reasonably be expected to increase the Taxes of, any

Acquired Company or MetalCo for any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date without MetalCo’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (iii) timely pay, or promptly

discharge upon any claim for collection from any Acquired Company, all Taxes of any such group for which any Acquired Company could be liable under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar

provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law). In the event of any conflict between this Section 7.9(f) and Section 10.5, this

Section 7.9(f) shall control with respect to any Silgan Tax Contest.

(g) Tax Cooperation. Each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to,

reasonably cooperate in connection with the preparation and filing of any Tax Return or any Tax Proceeding of or with respect to any Acquired Company, the Reorganization and any election described in Section 7.9(a),

including by furnishing relevant books and records, Tax Returns and related workpapers, making relevant personnel reasonably available and executing such powers of attorney and other documents as may be reasonably necessary in connection therewith.

MetalCo and SHI shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, retain all books and records relating to Taxes of the Acquired Companies for Pre-Closing Tax Periods until sixty (60) days following

the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (giving effect to any valid extensions thereof), and shall not destroy or dispose of any such books and records without first providing the other Parties with reasonable prior written notice

and an opportunity to take possession or make copies thereof.

(h) Post-Closing Tax Actions.

(i) Without the prior written consent of SHI (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), MetalCo

shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries (including the Acquired Companies) not to, (i) file (other than pursuant to Section 7.9(i)), amend, refile or otherwise modify any Tax Return of any Acquired Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (ii) make, change or revoke any Tax election that has retroactive effect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period of any Acquired Company,

(iii) initiate or enter into any voluntary disclosure or similar procedure with any Taxing Authority with respect to Taxes of any Acquired Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iv) agree to extend

or waive any statute of limitations in respect of Taxes of any Acquired Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (v) file any Tax Return for any Acquired Company for a

Pre-Closing Tax Period (including a Straddle Period) in a jurisdiction in which such Acquired Company has not historically filed Tax Returns or (vi) change any accounting method or adopt any convention

for any Acquired Company that shifts taxable income reportable in a post-Closing Tax period to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or shifts deductions or losses reportable from a

Pre-Closing Tax Period to a post-Closing Tax period, in each case, to the extent such action could reasonably be expected to increase the liability of SHI (or any of its Affiliates) under this Agreement

(including pursuant to Section 10.2(c) or Section 10.2(d)) or the amount of the Income Tax Liability Amount.

(ii) Without the prior written consent of MetalCo (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), SHI

shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, (A) file (other than pursuant to Section 7.9(i)), amend, refile or otherwise modify any Tax Return of or with respect to any Acquired Company, (B) make, change or

revoke any Tax election with respect to any Acquired Company, (C) initiate or enter into any voluntary disclosure or similar procedure with any Taxing Authority with respect to Taxes of any Acquired Company, (D) agree to extend or waive

any statute of limitations in respect of Taxes of any Acquired Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (E) file any Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period for or

with respect to any Acquired Company in a jurisdiction in which such Acquired Company has not historically filed Tax Returns or (F)

change any accounting method or adopt any convention for or with respect to any Acquired Company that shifts taxable income reportable to in a Pre-Closing

Tax Period to a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date or shifts deductions or losses reportable to a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date to a

Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each case, to the extent such action could reasonably be expected to increase the Taxes of MetalCo or any of its Subsidiaries (including any Acquired Company) for any taxable period

(or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such action described in

this Section 7.9(h) shall be permitted if and to the extent an Independent Accounting Firm jointly selected by MetalCo and SHI determines in good faith that the Tax position to which such action relates is not “more

likely than not” to be sustained upon examination based on its technical merits or, to the extent applicable to the relevant Acquired Company, is not otherwise supportable under the applicable accounting standard, in each case, such that a

reserve in respect of such Tax position would be required to be established on the applicable financial statements in accordance with such Acquired Company’s applicable accounting standard.

(i) Tax Returns.

(i) With respect to a Tax Return for an Acquired Company that is required to be filed by or with respect to any affiliated,

combined, consolidated, unitary or similar group that includes SHI (or any Affiliate thereof), other than any such group the common parent of which is an Acquired Company, SHI shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed,

such Tax Return. MetalCo shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed, all other Tax Returns of the Acquired Companies required to be filed after the Closing Date. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner

consistent with past practice of the Acquired Company, except as otherwise required by applicable Law or otherwise set forth in this Agreement or the Reorganization Plan (including the German Reorganization).

(ii) MetalCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide SHI with copies of any such Tax Returns of the Acquired

Company prepared by, or caused to be prepared by, MetalCo pursuant to Section 7.9(i)(i) for SHI’s review and comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof (giving effect to any extensions

thereto) in the case of income Tax Returns and as soon as practicable in the case of all other Tax Returns and MetalCo shall consider in good faith such revisions as are reasonably requested by SHI; provided that MetalCo shall not file any

such Tax Return reflecting a position that would reasonably be expected to increase the liability of SHI (or any of its Affiliates) under this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.2(c) or

Section 10.2(d)) or the amount of the Income Tax Liability Amount without the prior written consent of SHI (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(iii) Notwithstanding anything provided in this Section 7.9(i), nothing in this Agreement shall

require SHI to provide MetalCo with a copy of any Tax Return with respect to any affiliated, combined, consolidated, unitary or similar group that includes SHI (or any Affiliate thereof), on the one hand, and an Acquired Company, on the other hand,

whereby SHI (or any Affiliate thereof) is the common parent of such affiliated, combined, consolidated, unitary or similar group.

(j) Tax Refunds. Any (i) refund of Taxes paid by an Acquired Company with

respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (including any interest in respect thereof) received by MetalCo, the Acquired Company or any of their Affiliates and (ii) any amounts of overpayments of Tax with

respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period credited against Taxes which MetalCo, the Acquired Company or their Affiliates otherwise would be or would have been required to pay (either of the foregoing, “Tax

Refunds”), shall be for the account of SHI, in each case solely to the extent such Taxes were economically borne by SHI (i.e., were indemnified by SHI pursuant to Section 10.2(c),

Section 10.2(d) or taken into account as a liability in the calculation of the Silgan Distribution Amount, Working Capital, the Income Tax Liability Amount or Silgan Transaction Expenses), and excluding any Tax Refund

(A) attributable to any Tax attribute generated in, or the carryback of any Tax attribute from, any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date or (B) taken into account as an asset in the calculation of Working

Capital or as a reduction of the Income Tax Liability Amount, in each case, net of any Taxes thereon and expenses attributable thereto, and MetalCo shall pay over to SHI any such refund or the amount of any such credit within thirty (30) days

after receipt or the application of any such refund or credit to reduce a Tax liability of MetalCo or an Acquired Company or any of their Affiliates. In connection with the foregoing, if SHI determines in good faith that an Acquired Company is

entitled to file or make a formal or informal claim for a Tax Refund (including by filing an amended Tax Return or due to a change in Tax Law), SHI shall be entitled to request that MetalCo cause the Acquired Company or any of its Affiliates to file

or make such formal or informal claim for such Tax Refund (other than any claim that MetalCo determines in good faith would reasonably be expected to adversely affect MetalCo or any Acquired Company for any taxable period (or portion thereof)

beginning after the Closing Date), and SHI shall be entitled to control the prosecution of such claim for such Tax Refund. MetalCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate, and cause the Acquired Company and its Affiliates to

cooperate, with respect to such claim for such Tax Refund. MetalCo and SHI shall equitably apportion any refund, credit, offset or other similar benefit received or realized with respect to Taxes attributable to the Acquired Company for a Straddle

Period in a manner consistent with the principles set forth in Section 7.9(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) prior to making any payment in respect of a Tax Refund pursuant to this

Section 7.9(j), MetalCo shall (and SHI shall cause MetalCo to) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to SHI and A-VL Holdings, as soon as reasonably practicable prior to

making such payment, reasonable supporting calculations identifying the specific type and amount of the applicable Tax Refund and the amount to be paid, and MetalCo shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments made from SHI and A-VL Holdings in connection with the foregoing; and (ii) if MetalCo reasonably determines (as set forth in a written notice to SHI describing such determination in reasonable detail) that (x) an amount of

Tax that was taken into account in the determination of Working Capital (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5), as determined under the same principles used for purposes of computing the Income Tax Liability Amount

(including, for example, an entity-by-entity and jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis), to

the extent applicable, is less than (y) the amount of such Tax as reported on an originally and timely filed Tax Return, as if such Tax Return was prepared and filed in accordance with the same principles used for purposes of computing the

Income Tax Liability Amount, to the extent applicable, other than any such Tax liability arising from an action taken by MetalCo or any of its Affiliates following the Closing in breach of this Agreement, then (A) the amount of any payment

otherwise required pursuant to this Section 7.9(j) shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount equal to the difference between the Tax determined in clause

(y) above and the Tax determined in clause (x) above, (B) any amount of such Tax liability in excess of the amount applied pursuant to the foregoing clause (A) shall be carried forward and shall reduce (but not below zero) each

subsequent payment otherwise required pursuant to this Section 7.9(j) until fully applied and (C) any amount by which a payment is reduced pursuant to this clause (ii) in respect of any Tax liability shall reduce,

dollar-for-dollar and without duplication, any amount otherwise payable by SHI pursuant to Section 10.2(c) or

Section 10.2(d) with respect to such Tax liability.

(k) Section 245A Elections. To the extent the

election pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.245A-5(e)(3) is permitted by applicable law for the taxable year which includes the Closing, each Party hereby delegates the authority to MetalCo to

enter into a binding agreement described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.245A-5(e)(3)(i)(C)(2) on behalf of such Party (and any direct or indirect owners of such Party) in connection with any transfer

of any “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 957(c) of the Code to MetalCo in connection with the Transactions (including pursuant to the Reorganization and the MIHBV-MetalCo Bidco Transfer), in each case,

(i) to the extent such Party (or, to the extent such Party is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal tax purposes, any direct or indirect owner of such Party) is a “U.S. tax resident” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.245A-5 and a United States shareholder within the meaning of Section 951(b) of the Code and the applicable Section 958 regulations with respect to such controlled foreign corporation as of

the end of the date such transfer is consummated and (ii) solely if MetalCo determines in good faith that entering into such binding agreement, and thereby electing to close the taxable year of such controlled foreign corporation as of the end

of the date such transfer is consummated pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.245A-5(e)(3)(i), is necessary or appropriate (including in light of any amendment, modification, withdrawal or

invalidation of Treasury Regulations Section 1.245A-5 or any successor or supplemental guidance, including under Section 951(a)(2) of the Code). MetalCo shall provide SHI with written notice

reasonably in advance of entering into any such binding agreement. Each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate in connection with the preparation, execution and filing of any such binding agreement and any

related statements, schedules or filings.

(l) Austrian Documentation Support. Prior to the Closing, SHI shall, or shall cause one

of its Affiliates (including, prior to the Closing, Silgan Holdings Austria GmbH) to, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to MetalCo, in form and substance reasonably acceptable by MetalCo, documentation with respect to the recoverability

of the shareholder loan between Silgan Holdings Austria GmbH and SIHBV as of the date of the loan waiver in the 2024 fiscal year, including the commercial and/or tax reasons for the loan waiver, a forecast of financial information (inclusive of cash

flows) through the maturity date of the shareholder loan that supports the debt service coverage, and any additional financial analysis that supports the debt capacity of the issuer.

7.10 Silgan Disclosure Schedules. SHI may, at its option, include in the Silgan Disclosure Schedules items that are not material in

order to avoid any misunderstanding, and such inclusion, or any references to dollar amounts, shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgement or representation that such items are material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further

the meaning of such terms or any other terms defined in Article I (and, in particular, the

inclusion of any item in the Silgan Disclosure Schedules shall not, in and of itself, be a basis for taking such item into account in determining whether there has been a Material Adverse

Effect). Information disclosed in any Silgan Disclosure Schedule shall constitute a disclosure for all purposes under this Agreement solely to the extent it is reasonably apparent on the face of such items that the information is relevant for such

other purposes, notwithstanding any reference to a specific section, and all such information shall be deemed to qualify such sections. The disclosure of any matter or item in any Silgan Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to constitute an

acknowledgment that any such matter is required to be disclosed.

7.11 Acknowledgments by MetalCo.

(a) MetalCo acknowledges, on its own behalf and on behalf of each of its Affiliates, that it has conducted an independent investigation and

verification of the business, financial condition, results of operations, assets, liabilities, properties, contracts and prospects of the Business and the Acquired Companies, and, in making its determination to proceed with the Transactions, MetalCo

has relied on the results of its own independent investigation and verification and on the Express Representations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, MetalCo acknowledges and agrees, on each of its own behalf and on behalf of its

Affiliates, that neither the Acquired Companies, nor any other Person (including SHI), has made, is making or is authorized to make, any warranty or representation (whether in written, electronic or oral form), express or implied, as to (i) the

accuracy or completeness of any information or (ii) the quality, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or condition of the Business or the Acquired Companies’ business, operations, assets, liabilities, prospects or any

portion thereof, except, in each case, solely to the extent expressly set forth in the Express Representations.

(b) For the avoidance of

doubt, nothing in this Section 7.11 shall limit (i) claims for Fraud or (ii) any Party’s rights or remedies under this Agreement (including in respect of the Express Representations) or any other Transaction

Document.

7.12 Pre-Closing Sharing of Data. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the

Personal Information disclosed or made available by SHI or the Acquired Companies to MetalCo and A-VL Holdings (including certain of its Affiliates) in connection with this Agreement (the “Transaction

Personal Information”) is necessary for the purposes of enabling MetalCo and A-VL Holdings to determine if MetalCo and/or A-VL Holdings shall proceed with the

Transactions. MetalCo and A-VL Holdings shall, and A-VL Holdings shall cause its Affiliates that receive such Transaction Personal Information to, at all times, comply

with Privacy Laws and not use, disclose or otherwise Process the Transaction Personal Information for any purposes other than those related to the performance of this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions, or any other similar purposes

or as required or permitted by Law. MetalCo and A-VL Holdings shall, and A-VL Holdings shall cause its Affiliates that receive such Transaction Personal Information to,

take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect the Transaction Personal Information by applying a standard of care at least as protective of such information as MetalCo’s and A-VL Holdings’

current policies, practices, or procedures applicable to Personal Information, but in any event by applying at least a reasonable standard of care. If the Transactions do not proceed, MetalCo and A-VL Holdings

shall, and A-VL Holdings shall cause its Affiliates that receive such Transaction Personal Information to, securely destroy the Transaction Personal Information within sixty (60) calendar days and upon

SHI’s written request, provide written confirmation of the destruction of the Transaction Personal Information.

7.13 Litigation Support. In the event that and for so long as SHI or any of its

Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies), MetalCo or any of its Affiliates or A-VL Holdings is prosecuting, contesting or defending any Legal Proceeding or claim by or against a third party or otherwise

for legal compliance in connection with (a) the Transactions or the transactions contemplated under any other Transaction Documents or (b) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event,

incident, action, failure to act, or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date, MetalCo, A-VL Holdings and SHI, as applicable, shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates (and its and their officers

and employees) to, reasonably cooperate in good faith with MetalCo, A-VL Holdings and SHI, as applicable, and its counsel in such prosecution, contest or defense, including making reasonably available its

personnel, and providing such testimony and access to its books and records as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with such prosecution, contest or defense upon reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours, all at the sole

cost and expense of the requesting Party; provided that such cooperation does not interfere with normal business operations; provided, further, that each Party shall treat all such information as confidential and hereby agrees

not to use such information for any purpose other than in connection with such Legal Proceeding, other investigation, charge, claim or demand by a third party and that to the extent production of such information is required in such Legal

Proceeding, it is done on an attorneys’ eyes-only basis; and provided, further, that no Party shall be obliged to disclose or provide access to any documents, records or information subject to attorney-client privilege or

attorney work-product protection. Requests for support must be made with reasonable notice and be limited to regular business hours. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party acknowledges and agrees that this Section 7.13

shall not apply with respect to any Legal Proceeding with respect to which any Party or its Affiliates are adverse to any other Party or any of its Affiliates (in each case, which shall exclude the Acquired Companies where SHI is the Party).

7.14 Title Insurance and Survey. For each parcel of Owned Real Property, MetalCo desires to obtain, at its sole cost and expense, an

ALTA 2021 Form owner’s title insurance policy to be issued by a title company selected by MetalCo in its discretion, in each case: (a) having an effective date as of the Closing Date, (b) in amount, form and substance reasonably

satisfactory to MetalCo, (c) insuring that the applicable Acquired Company has good and marketable fee simple title to the Owned Real Property, free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens, and (d) including such endorsements as

MetalCo may request (which may include endorsements providing for extended coverage over the general title exceptions, zoning 3.1 endorsements (including parking and loading docks), contiguity endorsements, access endorsements, non-imputation endorsements, endorsements insuring compliance with any covenants, conditions and restrictions of record and tax parcel or tax number endorsements) (collectively, the “Title

Policies”). In order to obtain the Title Policies, SHI (or the entity requested by the title company) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist MetalCo in obtaining the Title Policies; provided, however, that SHI

shall deliver, or cause the applicable Acquired Company to deliver, such customary, and reasonably acceptable to the applicable Acquired Company, owner’s or title affidavits, gap indemnities and

non-imputation affidavits as the title company may reasonably require in order to issue the Title Policies (including extended coverage and the endorsements described in clause (d)). MetalCo shall have the

right to have a surveyor survey, at MetalCo’s sole

cost and expense, the Owned Real Property prior to Closing following at least five Business Days’ prior written notice to SHI and SHI shall have a right to have a representative present

when such surveyor is conducting such surveys, at SHI’s discretion. SHI’s performance of its obligations with respect to this covenant shall be deemed to have been satisfied as of the Closing so long as SHI has not materially breached

its obligations under this Section 7.14.

7.15 Third-Party Consents. Each of SHI and MetalCo shall

cooperate with one another to (a) determine whether any actions, consents, filings, notices, approvals, or waivers are required to be obtained from, or given to, (i) any third parties under any Material Contract in connection with the

consummation of the Transactions or (ii) required under the Transition Services Agreement and (b) take such actions required in connection therewith in a timely manner. SHI shall, and SHI shall cause the Acquired Companies to, use

reasonable best efforts to seek to obtain the consents, filings, notices, approvals, or waivers with respect to Material Contracts set forth on Schedule 7.15 of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules (and, upon the reasonable request of SHI, MetalCo

shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with SHI and the Acquired Companies in connection therewith), and shall keep MetalCo and A-VL Holdings reasonably informed of the status thereof;

provided that obtaining any such consents, filings, notices, approvals, or waivers shall not be deemed to be conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the Transactions.

7.16 Intercompany Accounts and Intercompany Arrangements.

(a) Immediately prior to the Closing, all intercompany balances and accounts (other than intercompany balances and accounts set forth in

Schedule 7.16(a) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules (the “Surviving Intercompany Accounts”)) between SHI and any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies), on the one hand, and MetalCo and any Acquired Company,

on the other hand, shall be settled or otherwise eliminated in such a manner as SHI shall determine in its sole discretion (including by SHI or any of its Affiliates removing from MetalCo or any Acquired Company any Cash Amounts or funds from cash

pools by means of dividends, distributions, contribution, the creation or repayment of intercompany debt, increasing or decreasing of cash pool balances or otherwise); provided that, without duplication, all Taxes and other Liabilities

incurred in connection therewith shall be for the account of SHI or its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies). Intercompany balances and accounts solely among the Acquired Companies shall not be affected by this provision. Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in this Agreement, SHI may, or may cause any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) to, pay, prepay, reduce or otherwise discharge any Debt. For the avoidance of doubt, none of MetalCo or any Acquired Company

shall, following the Closing, have any obligation to pay to SHI or any of its Affiliates any amounts whatsoever in respect of such intercompany balances and accounts (other than the Surviving Intercompany Accounts) referred to in this

Section 7.16 and none of SHI or any of its Affiliates shall, following the Closing, have any obligation to pay to MetalCo or any Acquired Company or any of its or their respective Affiliates any amounts whatsoever in

respect of such intercompany balances and accounts (other than the Surviving Intercompany Accounts) referred to in this Section 7.16.

(b) Immediately prior to the Closing, except for the Transaction Documents to be entered

into in connection with this Agreement or as set forth on Schedule 7.16(b) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, all arrangements, understandings or Contracts, including all obligations to provide goods, services or other benefits, between SHI

or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies), on the one hand, and any Acquired Company, on the other hand, shall automatically be terminated without further payment or performance and cease to have any further force and effect, such

that no party thereto shall have any further obligations or Liabilities therefor or thereunder.

shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, (a) terminate, or cause to be terminated, the participation of each Acquired Company in each cash pooling, zero-balancing, cash concentration, notional pooling or

similar intercompany treasury arrangement (including by removing from any such arrangement any Cash Amounts or funds of the Acquired Companies by means of dividends, distributions, contributions, the creation or repayment of intercompany debt,

increases or decreases of cash pool balances or otherwise), with any Liabilities and Taxes arising from such settlement or termination being for the account of SHI, and (b) establish standalone bank accounts for the Acquired Companies to the

extent set forth on Schedule 7.16(c) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, such that, from and after the Calculation Time, no cash of any Acquired Company is swept to, pooled with or commingled with accounts of SHI or any of its Affiliates

(other than MetalCo and the Acquired Companies).

7.17 Financial Obligations.

(a) At or prior to the Closing, each of MetalCo and SHI shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable

efforts to, effective as of the Closing, terminate or cause to be terminated the outstanding letters of credit, surety, performance and other bonds, bankers’ acceptances and similar facilities and guarantees entered into by or on behalf of SHI

or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies) in connection with, for the benefit of, or relating to the Business, the Acquired Companies or the assets of the Acquired Companies (collectively, the “Credit

Enhancements”), to the extent set forth on Schedule 7.17(a) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules or entered into between the date hereof and the Closing Date in the Ordinary Course of Business and in accordance with

Section 7.2 (such Credit Enhancements, the “Scheduled Credit Enhancements”), in each case, without Liability to SHI or any of its Affiliates, or, subject to the written consent of MetalCo, cause an

Acquired Company to (i) arrange for substitute letters of credit, surety, performance and other bonds, bankers’ acceptances and similar facilities and guarantees to replace the Scheduled Credit Enhancements or (ii) assume all

obligations under each such Scheduled Credit Enhancement effective as of the Closing, obtaining as soon as reasonably practicable from the creditor or other counterparty a full and irrevocable release of SHI and its Affiliates that are liable,

directly or indirectly, for reimbursement to the creditor or fulfillment of other Liabilities to a counterparty in connection with such Scheduled Credit Enhancements (the foregoing, collectively, the “Actions on Credit

Enhancements”) to the extent arising under, or related to, obligations following the Closing. In the event that the Parties are unable to effectuate on or prior to the Closing Date the Actions on Credit Enhancements with respect to such

Scheduled Credit Enhancements (the “Continuing Scheduled Credit Enhancements”), each of MetalCo and SHI shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to effectuate the Actions on Credit

Enhancements with respect to such Continuing Scheduled Credit Enhancements as promptly as reasonably practicable. Until the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, SHI shall reasonably cooperate with MetalCo and maintain in

effect each Continuing Scheduled Credit Enhancement that has not been replaced and/or terminated pursuant to this Section 7.17(a) (provided that, in so cooperating, none of SHI or its Affiliates will

be required to incur any additional Liability), following which twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date, SHI and its Affiliates may terminate any then-outstanding Continuing

Scheduled Credit Enhancement or take any other action with respect thereto as SHI may determine in its sole discretion. If, following the date of this Agreement, SHI identifies any Credit Enhancement that is not a Scheduled Credit Enhancement, SHI

shall promptly notify MetalCo thereof in writing (and Schedule 7.17(a) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed supplemented to include such Credit Enhancement), and from and after the date of such notice, such Credit Enhancement

shall be treated as a Continuing Scheduled Credit Enhancement for all purposes of this Section 7.17(a); provided that, with respect to any such Credit Enhancement, the twelve (12) month period referred to in the

preceding sentence shall run until twelve (12) months following the later of (x) the Closing Date, and (y) the date of such written notice. MetalCo further agrees that to the extent SHI or any of its Affiliates incurs any cost or

expense, or is required to make any payment, on or after the Closing, in connection with the exercise by any third party of its rights against SHI or its Affiliates with respect to the Credit Enhancements (whether or not they are Scheduled Credit

Enhancements), MetalCo shall indemnify and hold harmless SHI and its Affiliates against, and reimburse SHI and its Affiliates for, (x) with respect to any Scheduled Credit Enhancements, any and all amounts paid by SHI or its Affiliates,

including costs or expenses in connection with maintaining such Scheduled Credit Enhancements after the Closing (and, for the avoidance of doubt, excluding the period prior to the Closing), whether or not any Credit Enhancement is drawn upon or

required to be performed and (y) with respect to any Credit Enhancements other than the Scheduled Credit Enhancements, any and all amounts paid by SHI or its Affiliates solely to the extent drawn upon or required to be performed. To the extent

MetalCo or any of its Affiliates incurs any costs or expenses, or is required to make any payment, on or after the Closing, in connection with the exercise by any third parties of their rights relating to the period prior to Closing with respect to

the Credit Enhancements, SHI shall indemnify and hold harmless MetalCo and its Affiliates against, and reimburse MetalCo and its Affiliates for, any and all amounts paid by MetalCo or its Affiliates. The indemnifying party, in each case, shall,

promptly and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after written demand therefor from the indemnified party, reimburse the indemnified party or its Affiliates to the extent that such applicable Credit Enhancement is called upon and the

indemnified party or any of its Affiliates makes any payment or incurs any costs or expenses in respect of such Credit Enhancement. In no event shall MetalCo or any Acquired Company be obligated to obtain, replace or secure any such arrangement with

respect to, any Credit Enhancements to the extent such Credit Enhancements support obligations that are Liabilities relating to the Retained Business of SHI and its Affiliates. MetalCo shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, increase

SHI’s or its Affiliates’ obligations under or amend in a manner adverse to SHI or its Affiliates or renew or extend the term of, or transfer to a third party, any Credit Enhancement without the consent of SHI.

(b) At or prior to the Closing, each of MetalCo and SHI shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable

Acquired Companies in connection with, for the benefit of, or relating to the Retained Business or the assets of SHI or its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies) (collectively, the “Silgan Credit Enhancements”) to the

extent set forth on Schedule 7.17(b) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules or entered into between the date hereof and the Closing Date in the Ordinary Course of Business and in accordance with Section 7.2 (such Silgan

Credit Enhancements, the “Scheduled

100

Silgan Credit Enhancements”), in each case, without Liability to MetalCo or any of its Affiliates or, subject to the written consent of SHI, cause SHI or one of its Affiliates (other

than the Acquired Companies) to (i) arrange for substitute letters of credit, surety, performance and other bonds, bankers’ acceptances and similar facilities and guarantees to replace the Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancements or

(ii) assume all obligations under each such Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancement effective as of the Closing, obtaining as soon as reasonably practicable from the creditor or other counterparty a full and irrevocable release of the Acquired

Companies that are liable, directly or indirectly, for reimbursement to the creditor or fulfillment of other Liabilities to a counterparty in connection with such Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancements (the foregoing, collectively, the

“Actions on Silgan Credit Enhancements”). In the event that the Parties are unable to effectuate on or prior to the Closing Date the Actions on Silgan Credit Enhancements with respect to such Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancements

(the “Continuing Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancements”), each of MetalCo and SHI shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to effectuate the Actions on Silgan Credit Enhancements

with respect to such Continuing Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancements as promptly as reasonably practicable. Until the date that is twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, MetalCo shall reasonably cooperate with SHI and maintain in effect

each Continuing Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancement that has not been replaced and/or terminated pursuant to this Section 7.17(b) (provided that, in so cooperating, none of MetalCo or its Affiliates will be required

to incur any additional Liability), following which twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date, MetalCo and its Affiliates may terminate any then-outstanding Continuing Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancement or take any other action with

respect thereto as MetalCo may determine in its sole discretion. If, following the date of this Agreement, MetalCo identifies any Silgan Credit Enhancement that is not a Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancement, MetalCo shall promptly notify SHI thereof

in writing (and Schedule 7.17(b) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed supplemented to include such Silgan Credit Enhancement), and from and after the date of such notice such Silgan Credit Enhancement shall be treated as a

Continuing Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancement for all purposes of this Section 7.17(b); provided that, with respect to any such Silgan Credit Enhancement, the twelve (12) month period referred to in the

preceding sentence shall run until twelve (12) months following the later of (x) the Closing Date, and (y) the date of such written notice. SHI further agrees that to the extent MetalCo or any of its Affiliates incurs any cost or

expense, or is required to make any payment, on or after the Closing, in connection with the exercise by any third party of its rights against MetalCo or its Affiliates with respect to the Silgan Credit Enhancements (whether or not they are

Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancements), SHI shall indemnify and hold harmless MetalCo and its Affiliates against, and reimburse MetalCo and its Affiliates for, (x) with respect to any Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancements, any and all amounts

paid by MetalCo or its Affiliates, including costs or expenses in connection with maintaining such Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancements after the Closing, whether or not any Silgan Credit Enhancement is drawn upon or required to be performed and

(y) with respect to any Silgan Credit Enhancements other than the Scheduled Silgan Credit Enhancements, any and all amounts paid by MetalCo or its Affiliates solely to the extent drawn upon or required to be performed. To the extent SHI or any

of its Affiliates incurs any cost or expense, or is required to make any payment, on or after the Closing, in connection with the exercise by any third party of its rights relating to the period prior to Closing with respect to the Silgan Credit

Enhancements, MetalCo shall indemnify and hold harmless SHI and its Affiliates against, and reimburse SHI and its Affiliates for, any and all amounts paid by SHI or its Affiliates. The indemnifying party, in each case, shall, promptly

101

and in no event later than three Business Days after written demand therefor from the indemnified party, reimburse the indemnified party or its Affiliates to the extent that such applicable

Silgan Credit Enhancement is called upon and the indemnified party or any of its Affiliates makes any payment or incurs any costs or expenses in respect of such Silgan Credit Enhancement. In no event shall SHI or any of its Affiliates be obligated

to obtain, replace or secure any such arrangement with respect to, any Silgan Credit Enhancements to the extent such Silgan Credit Enhancements support obligations that are Liabilities relating to the Business. SHI shall not, and shall cause its

Affiliates not to, increase MetalCo’s or its Affiliates’ obligations under or amend in a manner adverse to MetalCo or its Affiliates or renew or extend the term of, or transfer to a third party, any Silgan Credit Enhancement without the

consent of MetalCo.

event either of the Actions on Credit Enhancements is not completed effective as of the Closing, to the extent that SHI or any of its Affiliates has performance obligations under any Credit Enhancements after the Closing, MetalCo shall, or shall

cause its Affiliates to, (i) if requested by SHI, perform such obligations on behalf of SHI or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, and (ii) otherwise take such action as requested by SHI so as to put SHI or its applicable Affiliate in

the same position as if MetalCo or its Affiliates had performed or was performing such obligations.

(d) Without limiting SHI’s

undertaking in the foregoing Section 7.17(b), in the event either of the Actions on Silgan Credit Enhancements is not completed effective as of the Closing, to the extent that MetalCo or any of its Affiliates has

performance obligations under any Silgan Credit Enhancements after the Closing, SHI shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, (i) if requested by MetalCo, perform such obligations on behalf of MetalCo or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, and

(ii) otherwise take such action as requested by MetalCo so as to put MetalCo or its applicable Affiliate in the same position as if SHI or its Affiliates had performed or was performing such obligations.

7.18 Insurance.

(a)

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.18, MetalCo acknowledges that all insurance coverage for the Acquired Companies under insurance policies maintained by SHI or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired

Companies) shall terminate as of the Closing. MetalCo shall be solely responsible for procuring, paying for and maintaining insurance coverage for the Acquired Companies and the Business effective from and after the Closing (or, with respect to the

risks covered by any Continuing Silgan Policy, from and after the applicable Transition End Date), including directors’ and officers’, employment practices and fiduciary liability insurance policies for MetalCo and the Acquired Companies

effective as of the Closing.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 7.18(a), with respect to acts, omissions, events or

circumstances relating to the Acquired Companies or the Business that occurred or existed prior to the Closing that are covered by occurrence-based insurance policies of SHI or any of its Affiliates that are maintained on behalf of any Acquired

Company or the Business, including the Insurance Policies, (i) if the matter solely relates to the Acquired Companies or the Business, MetalCo or the applicable Acquired Company shall have the right to direct the submission, prosecution and

negotiation of any claim under such policies (including the claims set forth on Schedule 7.18(b)(i) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules), (ii) if the matter primarily relates to the

102

Acquired Companies or the Business but also relates to SHI, any Retained Company or the Retained Business, SHI, on the one hand, and MetalCo or the applicable Acquired Company, on the other hand,

shall jointly direct the submission, prosecution and negotiation of any claim under such policies (including the claims set forth on Schedule 7.18(b)(ii) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules), and (iii) for all other matters relating to

the Acquired Companies or the Business, SHI shall direct the submission, prosecution and negotiation of any claim under such policies (including the claims set forth on Schedule 7.18(b)(iii) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules), and in each

case SHI shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with MetalCo or the Acquired Company covered under the applicable insurance policy (upon MetalCo’s or such Acquired Company’s reasonable written request) in

connection therewith (including, as applicable, by submitting such claim in their names as insureds, executing proofs of loss, providing information requested by the insurer and promptly furnishing MetalCo with copies of material correspondence with

any insurer, broker or adjuster), and SHI shall promptly remit (or cause to be remitted) to MetalCo or the applicable Acquired Company any allocable insurance proceeds actually received in respect thereof (net of the amounts described in clause

(i) below); provided, however, that the Acquired Companies acknowledge and agree that (i) any proceeds to the Acquired Companies from the making of such claims will be decreased by the total amount of any increased out-of-pocket costs incurred by SHI or any of its Affiliates as a result of such claims, including any retroactive or prospective premium adjustments associated with such

coverage, as such amounts are determined in accordance with those policies and programs generally applicable from time to time to SHI or any of its Affiliates, (ii) MetalCo shall be responsible for any deductible or retention associated with

such claims, (iii) from and after the Closing, SHI shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, amend, commute, terminate, buy-out, extinguish liability under or otherwise modify any such insurance

policy in a manner that would impair the rights of, or coverage available to, MetalCo or the Acquired Companies with respect to such pre-Closing acts, omissions, events or circumstances, without

MetalCo’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (iv) SHI shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, compromise, settle, release or withdraw any such claim, or agree to any allocation of

proceeds or policy limits between the Business and the Retained Business in respect thereof, without MetalCo’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and MetalCo shall not compromise or settle any such

claim in a manner that would reasonably be expected to increase the costs described in clause (i) or reduce the coverage available for the Retained Business without SHI’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned

or delayed), (v) coverage counsel shall be selected by MetalCo and be reasonably acceptable to SHI (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), at MetalCo’s cost except to the extent recovered from the insurer,

and (vi) where an occurrence gives rise to claims relating to both the Business and the Retained Business, recoveries and any erosion of limits shall be allocated between them in proportion to the respective Covered Losses.

coverage included in a Continuing Silgan Policy (including any employee benefits liability coverage provided under a general liability policy), (ii) as provided in Section 7.18(h) and (iii) with respect to any claim

noticed to the applicable insurer under any claims-made insurance policy of SHI or any of its Affiliates prior to the Closing (which claims shall continue to be pursued under such policies in accordance with their terms, and

Section 7.18(b) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to such claims), from and after the Closing, none of MetalCo or the Acquired Companies shall have any right to make claims or seek coverage under any claims-made

103

insurance policies provided to the Acquired Companies by third parties or by SHI or any of its Affiliates, and, to the extent MetalCo or any Acquired Company, or any of their employees or third

parties, make claims under such claims-made policies after the Closing (other than as so excepted), MetalCo agrees to indemnify SHI and its Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies) for the full amount of all fees, costs and expenses incurred by

SHI or any such Affiliate as a result of such claims.

(d) MetalCo shall cause the Acquired Companies to reasonably cooperate with SHI and

its Affiliates (upon the reasonable written request of SHI or its applicable Affiliates) and share such information as is reasonably necessary in the view of SHI and its Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies) in order to permit SHI and its

Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies) to manage and conduct insurance matters within the scope of this Section 7.18 as such Persons deem appropriate.

(e) The Cyber Insurance Policy to be obtained by MetalCo pursuant to Section 7.18(f) shall include full prior acts

coverage for the Acquired Companies and the Business (without any retroactive date limitation), such that cyber events, network security failures, privacy incidents and data breaches occurring or existing prior to the Closing but first discovered or

reported following the Closing and within the reporting period specified in the Cyber Insurance Policy are covered thereunder, with limits not less than $15,000,000 in excess of a $2,500,000 retention (or such other limits substantially consistent

with the cyber liability program most recently maintained for the Business). If full prior acts coverage is not available on commercially reasonable terms, SHI and MetalCo shall cooperate in good faith to procure a

run-off or extended reporting endorsement under the cyber liability policy of SHI and its Affiliates for the benefit of MetalCo and the Acquired Companies in respect of such

pre-Closing events (any such endorsement or policy, the “Cyber Tail Policy”), the cost of which shall be borne by MetalCo. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, SHI shall

procure and maintain in effect cyber liability insurance coverage for the Acquired Companies and the Business on terms and limits substantially consistent with its most recent program. Any cyber event, network security failure, privacy incident or

data breach noticed to the applicable insurer under such coverage prior to the Closing shall be handled in accordance with Section 7.18(c).

(f) SHI and A-VL Holdings mutually agree to cause MetalCo to obtain, at its cost, with effect from the

Closing, cyber liability insurance coverage for the Acquired Companies and the Business, including the shared information technology environment of the Business and the Retained Business currently insured at the SHI level (the “Cyber

Insurance Policy”), and SHI shall reimburse MetalCo for its pro rata share of the premium therefor pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, from the date of this Agreement, SHI shall, and shall cause

the Acquired Companies and its other applicable Affiliates and Representatives to, reasonably cooperate with MetalCo and its insurance brokers and prospective insurers in connection with the placement of the Cyber Insurance Policy and any other

replacement insurance coverage for the Acquired Companies and the Business (including by providing loss runs, exposure data and other underwriting information reasonably requested), subject to Section 7.1(a).

104

(g) Notwithstanding Section 7.18(a), if MetalCo so elects by

written notice to SHI delivered no later than ninety (90) days prior to the anticipated Closing Date (which election may be made with respect to all or any of the policies set forth on Schedule 7.18(g) of the Silgan Disclosure

Schedules), SHI shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, continue to make available to the Acquired Companies and the Business coverage under the insurance policies so elected (the “Continuing Silgan Policies”) from the Closing

until, with respect to each Continuing Silgan Policy, the earlier of (i) the expiration of the policy period of such Continuing Silgan Policy in effect at the Closing (without giving effect to any renewal or extension thereof) and (ii) the

date on which the Acquired Companies are removed from the Continuing Silgan Policies following the written request by MetalCo (such earlier date, with respect to each Continuing Silgan Policy, the “Transition End Date”), in each

case on terms, conditions and limits substantially consistent with those in effect for the Acquired Companies and the Business immediately prior to the Closing; provided that (A) MetalCo shall reimburse SHI, within thirty (30) days

following receipt of an invoice therefor, for the portion of the premiums, Taxes and surcharges and other costs under each Continuing Silgan Policy allocable to the Acquired Companies and the Business for the period from the Closing through the

applicable Transition End Date, determined based on the respective revenues of the Business using the Continuing Silgan Policies and the Retained Business using the Continuing Silgan Policies, (B) MetalCo shall be responsible for any

deductible, self-insured retention or co-payment in respect of claims made by or on behalf of any Acquired Company under any Continuing Silgan Policy in respect of the period following the Closing, and

Section 7.18(b)(i) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any such claims, (C) SHI shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, amend, cancel, terminate or otherwise modify any Continuing Silgan Policy prior to

the applicable Transition End Date in a manner adverse to the Acquired Companies or the Business without MetalCo’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), other than any modification required by the

applicable insurer that applies to SHI and its Affiliates generally, (D) SHI shall, promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days) following the date of this Agreement, request from the applicable insurers any consent of or

endorsement from such insurers required for the Acquired Companies to remain covered under the policies set forth on Schedule 7.18(g) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules following the Closing notwithstanding the consummation of the

Transactions, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain each such consent and endorsement prior to the Closing, and shall notify MetalCo promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after any insurer declines to provide,

or conditions, any such consent or endorsement, so that MetalCo may procure replacement coverage for the applicable line of coverage effective as of the Closing, and (E) SHI shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with

MetalCo and its insurance brokers in the transition of the Acquired Companies and the Business to replacement coverage procured by MetalCo. Nothing in this Section 7.18(g) shall require SHI or any of its Affiliates to make

available to the Acquired Companies or the Business, following the Closing, coverage under any directors’ and officers’, employment practices, fiduciary or other management liability insurance policy (other than as provided in

Section 7.18(h)).

(h) SHI acknowledges and agrees that the individuals who served as directors, managers or

officers of any Acquired Company at or prior to the Closing shall continue to be covered, in respect of acts and omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing, under the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained

by SHI and its Affiliates as in effect at the Closing, in accordance with the terms thereof (including any provisions thereof applicable to former Subsidiaries of SHI and their directors, managers and officers), and, for a period of six

(6) years following the Closing Date, SHI shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, amend, commute, terminate or otherwise modify such policies in a manner that would eliminate or impair such coverage; provided that SHI may

satisfy the foregoing by procuring a run-off or “tail” policy providing coverage no less favorable to such individuals than the coverage in effect at the Closing.

105

7.19 Payments.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, SHI shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, promptly

pay or deliver to MetalCo (or its designated Affiliates) any monies or checks that have been sent to SHI or any of its Affiliates after the Closing Date to the extent they are in respect of the Business.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, MetalCo shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate

to, promptly pay or deliver to SHI (or its designated Affiliates) any monies or checks that have been sent to MetalCo or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) after the Closing Date to the extent they are in respect of the

Retained Business.

Section 7.19 in a manner that results in no (or the least amount of) incremental Tax liability (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) for the Parties and their respective Affiliates, including by treating the Person

initially in possession of any such payment referenced in this Section 7.19 after the Closing as holding such payment as an agent or nominee for the transferee thereof for all Tax purposes, to the extent permitted by

applicable Law.

7.20 Misallocated Assets. If, following the Closing, any right, property or asset not primarily related to or

primarily used in the Business on or prior to the Closing is found to have been transferred to MetalCo or any Acquired Company, either directly or indirectly, MetalCo shall cause the Acquired Companies to transfer, for no consideration, such right,

property or asset as soon as practicable to SHI or an Affiliate thereof designated by SHI. If, following the Closing, any right, property or asset primarily related to or primarily used in the Business, on or prior to the Closing is found to have

been retained by, or transferred to, SHI or an Affiliate thereof (excluding for the avoidance of doubt, MetalCo and the Acquired Companies), either directly or indirectly, SHI shall transfer, or shall cause such Affiliate to transfer, for no

consideration, such right, property or asset as soon as practicable to MetalCo or a Subsidiary thereof (including an Acquired Company) designated by MetalCo. To the extent that any transfer under this Section 7.20 is

required, but not permitted by Law or an applicable Contract, SHI and MetalCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or structure an arrangement such that MetalCo or SHI, as applicable, shall receive the rights and benefits and/or bear

the obligations and burdens, of such right, property, asset or liability. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate to effect any transfers or other arrangements described in this Section 7.20 in a manner that results in no

(or the least amount of) incremental Tax liability (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) for the Parties and their respective Affiliates, including by treating the Person initially in possession of any such right, property or asset referenced

in this Section 7.20 after the Closing as holding such right, property or asset as an agent or nominee for the transferee thereof for all Tax purposes, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

106

7.21 Shared Contracts.

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, with respect to each Shared Contract (other than the Shared Contracts to be governed by

the Joint Procurement Agreement), SHI shall, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to divide, partially assign, modify or replicate (in whole or in part) such Shared Contract to the extent permitted

under applicable Law such that (i) the rights, benefits, obligations and Liabilities of SHI or its applicable Subsidiaries in respect of that portion of such Shared Contract relating to the Business will be assigned to or assumed by, as

applicable, one or more Acquired Companies and (ii) the rights, benefits, obligations and Liabilities of SHI or its applicable Subsidiaries in respect of that portion of such Shared Contract relating to the Retained Business will be assigned to

or assumed by, as applicable, SHI or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Acquired Companies) (such division, partial assignment, modification or replication, the “Shared Contract Separation”); provided that nothing in

this Section 7.21(a) shall require any Party or any of its Affiliates to pay any fee or other payment or consideration (monetary or otherwise), make any concession or accommodation to any third party, incur any Liability or

commence, defend or participate in any Legal Proceeding. Any fees, costs and expenses paid or granted to apportion such Shared Contracts (including the obtaining of any authorizations, approvals or consents required in connection therewith) shall be

borne solely by MetalCo and be MetalCo Expenses. From and after the Closing, (A) MetalCo (or an Acquired Company) shall reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless SHI and its Subsidiaries against all Covered Losses arising from or relating to the

portion of any such Shared Contract (including any Stranded Shared Contract) apportioned to the Business and (B) SHI and/or its Affiliates shall reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless MetalCo and the Acquired Companies against all Covered

Losses arising from or relating to any portion of such Shared Contract (including any Stranded Shared Contract) apportioned to the Retained Business. Other than in the Ordinary Course of Business, neither MetalCo nor SHI (or their respective

Affiliates) shall extend the term or otherwise amend the terms of any Shared Contract in a manner that would materially and adversely affect the other Party (or any of such Party’s Subsidiaries) without the prior written consent of SHI or

MetalCo, as applicable (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(b) For any such Shared Contract for which the Shared

Contract Separation could not be completed prior to the Closing (such Shared Contract, a “Stranded Shared Contract”), from the Closing until the earliest of (x) the completion of such Shared Contract Separation, (y) the

expiration or termination of such Stranded Shared Contract in accordance with its terms (without any extensions or renewals thereof) and (z) the second anniversary of the Closing Date, each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use

commercially reasonable efforts to continue the Shared Contract Separation of such Stranded Shared Contract and to enter into a mutually agreeable arrangement, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, under which, effective from and after the

Closing until the expiration or termination of such Stranded Shared Contract in accordance with its terms (without any extensions or renewals thereof), (i) one or more Acquired Companies would obtain and assume, as applicable, all of the rights,

benefits, obligations and Liabilities of SHI or its applicable Subsidiaries in respect of that portion of such Shared Contract relating to the Business and (ii) SHI or any of its Subsidiaries would obtain and assume, as applicable, all of the

rights, benefits, obligations and Liabilities of SHI or its applicable Subsidiaries in respect of that portion of such Shared Contract relating to the Retained Business; provided that nothing in this Section 7.21(b)

shall require any Party or any of its Affiliates to pay any fee or other payment or consideration (monetary or otherwise), make any concession or accommodation to any third party, incur any Liability or commence, defend or participate in any

107

Legal Proceeding for so long as SHI or any of its Subsidiaries is party to any such Shared Contract. Pending completion of the Shared Contract Separation of any Stranded Shared Contract, SHI

shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the applicable Acquired Companies the rights and benefits of the portion of such Stranded Shared Contract relating to the Business, and MetalCo shall, or

shall cause the applicable Acquired Company to, perform and discharge the corresponding obligations and Liabilities of such portion to the extent the Acquired Companies receive such rights and benefits.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, no representation, warranty or covenant of SHI contained in this Agreement

shall be breached or deemed breached, and no condition shall be deemed not satisfied, based on, in and of itself, (i) the failure to complete the Shared Contract Separation with respect to any such Shared Contract or (ii) any Legal

Proceeding commenced or threatened by or on behalf of any Person arising out of or relating to the failure to complete the Shared Contract Separation with respect to any such Shared Contract.

7.22 Reorganization.

(a) Prior to the Closing, SHI shall, and shall cause its applicable Affiliates to, take all necessary actions and steps to complete, in full,

the Reorganization, including all of the steps set forth in the steps plan attached hereto as Exhibit F (the “Reorganization Plan”) other than such steps that are expressly contemplated thereby to be completed following the

Closing, and the Separation Activities, including by executing a restructuring agreement (the “Restructuring Agreement”), in a form reasonably satisfactory to SHI, MetalCo and A-VL Holdings,

setting forth the documents, instruments and other actions to be executed or taken to consummate the Reorganization (together with the Restructuring Agreement, the “Restructuring Documents”); provided that SHI and its

Affiliates may not amend the Reorganization Plan and/or Restructuring Documents without the prior written consent of MetalCo (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) in respect of any such amendment that has,

individually or in the aggregate, an adverse effect on MetalCo or its Affiliates, including the Acquired Companies; provided, further, that no consent of MetalCo is required for the insertion of or modification to administrative and

other similar details in the Restructuring Documents, including any documents or instruments contemplated therein (such as names and/or addresses of parties or signatories, notaries, witnesses, signature execution blocks, notary or witness

mechanics, apostille and authentication requirements, dates which are contemplated by the applicable document or instrument but are required to be completed to execute such document or instrument). Subject to the consent right of MetalCo in the

preceding sentence, if any changes or modifications to the Reorganization Plan or the Restructuring Documents include the formation or incorporation by SHI or its Affiliates of certain entities for the purpose of holding certain assets or

liabilities of the Business, then any reference in this Agreement to the “Acquired Companies” shall be deemed to have been made for all purposes hereunder giving effect to the formation or incorporation of such entities.

108

(b) Each agreement, deed, instrument or other document entered into pursuant to the

Reorganization Plan, or otherwise to implement in any jurisdiction any transfer contemplated by this Agreement or the Reorganization Plan (each, a “Local Transfer Document”), is intended solely to implement the transactions

contemplated by this Agreement and the Reorganization Plan. In the event of any conflict between any Local Transfer Document and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control in all respects. No Local Transfer Document shall limit,

modify or otherwise affect any representation, warranty, covenant or remedy provided under this Agreement. No Party shall, and each Party shall cause its Affiliates not to, bring any Legal Proceeding under any Local Transfer Document except to

enforce the implementation thereof consistent with this Agreement.

7.23 Required Notices. SHI shall, and shall cause its

Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to timely deliver all notices and make all filings and registrations required under any Material Contract (including the SCF Programs with Material Customers and any collective bargaining

agreement), material Permit or Benefit Plan in connection with the Reorganization and the Transactions, within the time periods required thereby (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any advance-notice period under any collective bargaining

agreement, any name-change or form-change notices required under the SCF Programs with Material Customers and any Permit transfer or name-change notices required in connection with the entity conversions contemplated by the Reorganization Plan), and

shall provide MetalCo and A-VL Holdings with copies of all such notices reasonably in advance of delivery.

7.24 Portola Liquidations. SHI shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the liquidation and dissolution of Portola (Asia

Pacific) Holding Company Ltd. and Portola Packaging Inc. Mexico, S.A. de C.V. to be completed as promptly as practicable after the date hereof.

7.25 MIHBV Valuation. Within sixty (60) days following the date hereof, SHI and MetalCo shall jointly engage a nationally

recognized independent valuation firm jointly selected by SHI and MetalCo (the “Valuation Firm”) to determine the fair market value of the MIHBV Shares as of the Closing, and SHI shall, and shall cause the Acquired Companies to,

furnish the Valuation Firm with such information and access as it reasonably requests for such purpose. SHI and MetalCo shall cause the Valuation Firm to deliver to SHI, A-VL Holdings and MetalCo, no later

than ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, a written report setting forth such fair market value (the “MIHBV Valuation Report”), which shall, absent manifest error, be final and binding on the Parties

for purposes of determining the MIHBV Transfer Amount. Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code), SHI and MetalCo shall, and shall cause their

respective Affiliates to, file all Tax Returns consistently with the fair market value set forth in the MIHBV Valuation Report. The fees and expenses relating to the Valuation Firm shall be treated as Reorganization Costs.

7.26 Phase Is. SHI shall, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to complete, prior to the

Closing, Phase I environmental site assessment reports (the “Phase I Reports”) for the facilities of the Acquired Companies set forth on Schedule 7.26 of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules, in each case (a) subject to the

terms of any existing Contract to which SHI or any Acquired Company is a party and (b) prepared by an environmental consultant reasonably acceptable to MetalCo in accordance with ASTM International Standard

E1527-21 (to the extent feasible in the relevant jurisdiction). SHI shall, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to, deliver each Phase I Report to MetalCo promptly upon completion. The fees and expenses

associated with obtaining the Phase I Reports shall be a

109

MetalCo Expense. Any recognized environmental condition that is newly discovered (excluding, for clarity, any recognized environmental condition previously disclosed in the Data Room or on the

Silgan Disclosure Schedules) from any Phase I Report completed in accordance with this Section 7.26 shall, in each case, be excluded for the purposes of determining the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in

Sections 8.2(a) or 8.4(a).

7.27 Retained IP. SHI or its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies) shall retain

ownership of the Retained IP. MetalCo agrees to refrain from using the Silgan Marks, and agrees to cause the Acquired Companies not to use the Silgan Marks after the Closing, except as authorized in the IP License Agreement. After the Closing,

MetalCo and the Acquired Companies shall diligently and promptly, and in any event within sixty (60) days after the Closing, remove, permanently obliterate, cover or otherwise stop using or displaying Silgan Marks in or on any signage, tools,

dies, or equipment, and modify all products, labeling, inserts, packaging, websites, social media and other materials to remove the Silgan Marks, except as authorized in the IP License Agreement.

7.28 Joint Procurement Agreement. SHI and MetalCo shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, negotiate in good faith to

finalize and agree, prior to the Closing, a definitive agreement providing for the continued procurement by SHI and its Subsidiaries of materials on behalf of the Acquired Companies following the Closing under the Contracts identified as Procurement

Contracts in the term sheet attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Joint Procurement Term Sheet”) and any other Shared Contract that SHI and MetalCo agree in writing to treat as such (the “Joint Procurement

Agreement”), on terms consistent in all respects with the Joint Procurement Term Sheet and otherwise on customary terms reasonably acceptable to SHI and MetalCo (each acting reasonably and in good faith).

or 8.4, as the case may be, to be satisfied if such failure was caused by any breach of a covenant, agreement, representation, or warranty of this Agreement by such Party.

(i) the Closing has not occurred by the close of business on or before October 15, 2027 (the “Initial Termination

Date”); provided that if the applicable Termination Date (as defined in the Project Voyage Purchase Agreement) is extended, the Initial Termination Date shall be automatically extended for an equal length of time (such extended

date, together with the Initial Termination Date, as applicable, the “Termination Date”); provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this

Section 9.1(b)(i) shall not be available to (A) SHI if SHI is in breach in any material respect of any of its obligations hereunder and such breach has resulted in the Closing not having been effected as

of the Termination Date, (B) MetalCo if MetalCo is in breach in any material respect of any of its obligations hereunder and such breach has resulted in the Closing not having been effected as of the Termination Date, or (C) A-VL Holdings if A-VL Holdings is in breach in any material respect of any of its obligations hereunder and such breach has resulted in the Closing not having been

contemplated thereby;

have been a breach by A-VL Holdings of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or a breach by MetalCo of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this

Agreement, in each such case, which breach would result in the failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 8.3 and in any such case such breach shall be incapable of being cured or, if capable of

being cured, shall not have been cured prior to the earlier of (i) thirty (30) Business Days after providing written notice of such breach to A-VL Holdings or MetalCo, as applicable, and (ii) the

applicable Termination Date; provided that SHI shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(c) if SHI is then in breach of this Agreement and such breach would result in the

failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1, Section 8.2 or Section 8.4;

(d) by SHI, by written notice to MetalCo and A-VL Holdings, if (i) all of the conditions in

Sections 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4 have been satisfied or waived (other than those that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), (ii) SHI has confirmed by written notice to MetalCo and A-VL Holdings that SHI is ready, willing, and able to consummate the Transactions, and (iii) MetalCo and/or A-VL Holdings fails to consummate the Transactions within two

(2) Business Days following the delivery of such notice;

(e) by MetalCo, by written notice to SHI and

A-VL Holdings, if there shall have been a breach by SHI or A-VL Holdings of any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in

this Agreement, which breach would result in the failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 8.2, and in any such case such breach shall be incapable of being cured or, if capable of being cured,

shall not have been cured prior to the earlier of (i) thirty (30) Business Days after providing written notice of such breach to SHI or A-VL Holdings, as applicable, and (ii) the applicable

Termination Date; provided that MetalCo shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(e) if MetalCo is then in breach of this Agreement and such breach would result in the failure

of any of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1, Section 8.3 or Section 8.4; or

(f) by A-VL Holdings, by written notice to SHI and MetalCo, if there shall have been a breach by SHI

or MetalCo of any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement which breach would result in the failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in

Section 8.4, and in any such case such breach shall be incapable of being cured or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured prior to the earlier of (i) thirty (30) Business Days after providing written

notice of such breach to SHI or MetalCo, as applicable, and (ii) the applicable Termination Date; provided that A-VL Holdings shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this

Section 9.1(f) if A-VL Holdings is then in breach of this Agreement and such breach would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in

Section 8.1, Section 8.2 or Section 8.3.

115

In the event of any termination by any Party pursuant to

Section 9.1 hereof, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other Party or Parties, which written notice shall specify the provision or provisions hereof pursuant to which such termination is being effected,

and this Agreement shall terminate (subject to the provisions of Section 9.2), and the Transactions shall be abandoned, without further action by any Party.

9.2 Effect of Termination. In the event that this Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with

Section 9.1, this Agreement shall immediately become null and void and the Parties shall be relieved of their duties and obligations arising under this Agreement after the date of such termination and such termination shall

be without liability to MetalCo, SHI or A-VL Holdings; provided that (a) no such termination shall relieve any Party from liability for any Fraud or any Willful Breach prior to the effective date

of termination, as applicable, and the damages recoverable by the non-breaching Party shall include all attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by such Party in connection with the Transactions;

provided that in no event shall the aggregate liability of any Party for any breach of this Agreement prior to the Closing (including in respect of Fraud or Willful Breach) exceed an amount equal to the lesser of (x) $115,000,000 and

(y) the aggregate amount of the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses paid or payable to third parties (including counsel, accountants,

financial advisors, consultants and Debt Financing Sources) by the other Parties and their respective Affiliates in connection with this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the Transactions (including the Debt Financing and the Equity

Financing), in each case incurred through the date of such termination (the “Damages Cap”); provided, further, that that no Party shall be entitled to recover as damages hereunder any amount in respect of any fee,

cost, expense or other payment to the extent such Party or any of its Affiliates (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include, in the case of A-VL Holdings, AIP, LLC and Fund IX) has recovered such fee,

cost, expense or payment (whether by reimbursement, indemnification or otherwise) under the Cost Sharing Agreement or the Interim Investors Agreement, (b) any damages arising hereunder shall be payable solely pursuant to (i) a final non-appealable order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) a written settlement agreement entered into among the Parties, and (c) the Confidentiality Agreement, the Cost Sharing

Agreement and the provisions of Section 7.6, this Section 9.2 and Article XI (and any related definitional provisions set forth in Article I) shall survive any such termination and

remain valid and binding obligations of each of the Parties.

ARTICLE X

INDEMNIFICATION

10.1 Survival. Except in the case of Fraud, none of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any certificate

delivered hereunder nor any of the covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall survive the Closing, except for (a) those covenants and agreements contained herein that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after

the Closing which shall continue and survive the Closing until all obligations with respect thereto shall have been performed or satisfied or have been terminated in accordance with their

116

terms (or if no period for performance is specified herein, they shall continue and survive indefinitely) and (b) this Article X and Article XI (and any corresponding

definitions set forth in Article I) which shall continue and survive the Closing until all obligations with respect thereto shall have been performed or satisfied or have been terminated in accordance with their terms (or if no period for

performance is specified herein, they shall continue and survive indefinitely). This Section 10.1 shall not limit any covenant or agreement of the Parties contained in this Agreement that by its terms contemplates

performance after the Closing, and shall not extend the applicability of any covenant or agreement of the Parties contained in this Agreement that by its terms relates only to a period between the date of this Agreement and the Closing. For the

avoidance of doubt, any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(c) shall, except in the case of Fraud, survive for ninety (90) days following the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitation with

respect to such claim.

10.2 Indemnification by SHI. Subject to the provisions of this Article X, effective as of and after

the Closing, SHI shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless MetalCo and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies following the Closing), and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, representatives, successors and

assigns (collectively, the “MetalCo Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Covered Losses incurred or suffered by any of the MetalCo Indemnified Parties, to the extent caused by, arising out of or resulting

from:

(a) any breach of any covenant or agreement of SHI contained in this Agreement to be performed in whole or in part by SHI following

the Closing (but only to the extent that such covenants and agreements contemplate performance in whole or in part after the Closing);

(b) any Liabilities of SHI or any of its Affiliates, whether arising prior to, at or following the Closing, to the extent relating to, arising

out of or resulting from the Retained Business, including the employment or termination of employment of any employee of the Retained Business; provided that this Section 10.2(b) shall not apply to any Liability to

the extent required to be indemnified by MetalCo or any Acquired Company in favor of SHI or any of its Subsidiaries (other than MetalCo and its Subsidiaries) pursuant to Section 8.1(b) of the IP License Agreement or Section 5.3(b) of the

Transition Services Agreement;

or relating to the settlement or elimination of any intercompany accounts or intercompany arrangements set forth in Section 7.16; (iii) Taxes of any Person (other than an Acquired Company) for which any Acquired Company is

or prior to the Closing Date, a member of any affiliated, consolidated, combined, unitary, aggregate, fiscal unity or similar group for any Tax purpose or (B) as a transferee or successor, or by Contract or otherwise by operation of Law, in

each case of this clause (B), in respect of an event or transaction occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, and (iv) Taxes that are described on Schedule 10.2(c)(iv) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules (such Taxes in clause (iv), the

“Pre-Closing Indemnified Taxes”), in each case, other than any such Taxes or other amounts to the extent specifically taken into account in the determination of the Final Aggregate

Adjustment Amount (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5);

117

(d) (i) any Reorganization Costs in excess of the Reorganization Costs Cap, to the extent

not paid or reimbursed by SHI pursuant to Section 11.1 or taken into account in Silgan Transaction Expenses, and (ii) any other Liabilities (including any income Taxes) to the extent arising out of, resulting from, or

relating to any changes or modifications to the Reorganization Plan or the Restructuring Agreement, except to the extent such changes or modifications are (A) consented to in writing by MetalCo or (B) otherwise in accordance with

Section 7.22, other than Reorganization Costs up to the Reorganization Costs Cap, which shall be borne by MetalCo in accordance with Section 11.1; and

(e) the matter described on Schedule 10.2(e) of the Silgan Disclosure Schedules (the “Specified Matter”).

10.3 Indemnification by MetalCo. Subject to the provisions of this Article X, effective at and after the Closing, MetalCo

and its applicable Subsidiaries shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless SHI and its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, managers, partners, equityholders, members, employees, agents, representatives, successors and assigns

(collectively, the “Silgan Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Covered Losses incurred or suffered by any of the Silgan Indemnified Parties to the extent caused by, arising out of or resulting from (a) any

breach of any covenant or agreement of MetalCo contained in this Agreement to be performed in whole or in part by MetalCo following the Closing (but only to the extent that such covenants and agreements contemplate performance in whole or in part

after the Closing) or (b) any Liabilities of MetalCo or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Acquired Companies), whether arising prior to, at or following the Closing, to the extent relating to, arising out of or resulting from the Acquired

Companies or their respective assets or the Business, including the ownership or operation of the Acquired Companies or their respective assets or the Business and the employment or termination of employment of any employee of the Business (to the

extent not covered by the definition of Silgan Transaction Expenses); provided that, Section 10.3(b) shall not apply to any Liability to the extent (i) indemnified by SHI under

Section 10.2, (ii) taken into account in the determination of the Silgan Distribution Amount as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5, (iii) resulting from, arising out of or relating to the

Retained Business or (iv) required to be indemnified by SHI or any other Retained Company in favor of MetalCo or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 8.1(a) of the IP License Agreement or Section 5.3(a) of the Transition

Services Agreement.

10.4 Indemnification by A-VL Holdings. Subject to the provisions of

this Article X, effective at and after the Closing, A-VL Holdings shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the MetalCo Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Covered Losses incurred or

suffered by any of the MetalCo Indemnified Parties to the extent caused by, arising out of or resulting from any breach of any covenant or agreement of A-VL Holdings contained in this Agreement to be performed

in whole or in part by A-VL Holdings following the Closing (but only to the extent that such covenants and agreements contemplate performance in whole or in part after the Closing).

118

10.5 Procedures.

(a) A Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify

the party or parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any pending or threatened claim or demand that the Indemnified Party has determined has given rise to, or would reasonably be expected

to give rise to, such right of indemnification (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, such claim being a “Third Party Claim”), describing in reasonable detail

(taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party) the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim or demand; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the

Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under Section 7.17(a), Section 7.17(b), Section 7.18(c), Section 7.21(a) and this Article X

except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), it being agreed that notices for claims in respect of a breach of a covenant or agreement must be

delivered prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 10.1 for such covenant or agreement.

(b) Upon receipt of a notice of a Third Party Claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to

Section 7.17(a), Section 7.17(b), Section 7.18(c), Section 7.21(a), Section 10.2 or Section 10.3,

the Indemnifying Party will be entitled, by notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within twenty (20) Business Days of the receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim, to assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim (at the

expense of such Indemnifying Party) with counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense and control of such

Third Party Claim, if (i) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal Legal Proceeding or (ii) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its

Affiliates; provided, further, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense and control of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of

such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense (and shall consider in good faith the views of the Indemnified Party and its counsel); provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable and

documented fees and expenses of such separate external counsel if representation of both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would create a conflict of interest. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense

and control of any Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 10.5(b), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable and documented fees and

expenses of external counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, but the Indemnifying Party may nonetheless participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. MetalCo or SHI, as the

case may be, shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and Representatives to, reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by furnishing books and records, personnel and witnesses, as

appropriate for any defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, it shall be authorized to consent to a settlement or compromise of, or the entry of any judgment arising

from, any Third Party Claim, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any Indemnified Party; provided that such settlement or judgment does not involve any injunctive or other equitable relief or finding or admission of any violation

of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates and expressly unconditionally and irrevocably releases the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates from all Liabilities with respect to such Third Party Claim. No

Indemnified Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. For the avoidance of doubt,

Section 7.9(f) shall control with respect to any Tax Proceeding (and not this Section 10.5).

119

10.6 Exclusive Remedy and Release. MetalCo, SHI and

A-VL Holdings acknowledge and agree that, except as set forth in any other Transaction Document, following the Closing, (x) the indemnification provisions of Section 7.17(a),

Section 7.17(b), Section 7.18(c), Section 7.21(a) or Section 10.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of SHI with respect to matters

specifically set forth therein (y) the indemnification provisions of Section 7.17(a), Section 7.17(b), Section 7.21(a) and Section 10.2

shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of MetalCo (and, as applicable, A-VL Holdings) with respect to matters specifically set forth therein, in each case of the foregoing clauses (x) and

(y), for any Covered Losses and any other losses and Liabilities from claims for breach of contract, warranty, tortious conduct (including negligence) or otherwise (and whether predicated on common law, statute, strict liability, or

otherwise) that such Party may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of or in connection with this Agreement, the Transactions or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any breach of any

representation or warranty in this Agreement by any Party, or any failure by any Party to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement that, by its terms, was to have been performed, or complied with, under this Agreement and the other

Transaction Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in furtherance thereof, the Parties hereby irrevocably waive (a) any right of rescission of this Agreement, and (b) other than as provided in the foregoing, any

claims for breach of contract, warranty, tortious conduct (including negligence) or otherwise as a result of or in connection with this Agreement, the Transactions or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, following the Closing,

whether predicated on common law, statute, strict liability or otherwise, that in either case of clause (a) or (b), they may otherwise have or to which they may become entitled, in each case, except in the case of Fraud. Nothing

in this Section 10.6 shall limit (i) any Party’s right to equitable relief (including specific performance pursuant to Section 11.11) in respect of any covenant or agreement that

survives the Closing in accordance with Section 10.1, (ii) any Party’s right to enforce any payment or reimbursement obligation expressly provided in this Agreement (including under

Section 7.9 and Section 7.19), (iii) the rights and obligations of the Parties under Section 2.4 and Section 2.5, which shall be resolved

exclusively in accordance with Section 2.5, or (iv) any right or remedy of any Person under any other Transaction Document to which such Person is a party, in accordance with the terms thereof.

10.7 Additional Indemnification Provisions.

(a) With respect to each indemnification obligation contained in this Agreement, all Covered Losses shall be net of (i) any third-party

indemnity, contribution, insurance or similar proceeds that have been actually recovered by the Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification (it being agreed that if third-party insurance or

indemnification, contribution or similar proceeds in respect of such facts are recovered by the Indemnified Party subsequent to the Indemnifying Party’s making of an indemnification payment in satisfaction of its applicable indemnification

obligation, such proceeds shall be promptly remitted to the Indemnifying Party to the extent of the indemnification payment made (net of applicable deductibles, limitations, co-payments, retro-premium

obligations and premium increases attributable thereto, and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the

collection of any such proceeds)) and (ii) any

120

Tax benefit actually realized as a result of such Covered Loss in the taxable year of such Covered Loss (less any costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such Tax benefit), determined using the

following conventions: (A) with respect to any Acquired Company organized outside the United States, Tax benefits shall be determined solely under the Tax Law of the jurisdiction of such Acquired Company, disregarding any U.S. federal, state or

local Tax implications (including under Sections 951 and 951A of the Code); (B) with respect to any item of deduction or loss arising from such Covered Loss for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, (1) only the portion of such item allocable to A-VL Holdings shall be taken into account, (2) A-VL Holdings shall be deemed to be a corporation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes subject to a combined blended U.S.

federal, state and local income Tax rate of 25%, and such portion shall be deemed actually realized in the taxable year of such Covered Loss to the extent such item is properly deductible in such taxable year or the next succeeding taxable year

(taking into account any and all depreciation eligible under Section 168(k) of the Code to the extent permitted under applicable Law), and (3) no portion of any such item allocable to Silgan Holdings shall be taken into account; and

(C) no Indemnified Party (or any direct or indirect equityholder thereof) shall be required to claim or pursue any Tax benefit, amend any Tax Return, alter any pre-existing Tax position or provide any Tax

Return or other Tax information to any Person in connection with the determination of any Tax benefit, and any Tax benefit taken into account under this clause (ii) shall be determined without duplication of any amount paid or payable to SHI

pursuant to Section 7.9(j) (Tax Refunds) or otherwise taken into account in the calculation of the Income Tax Liability Amount or Working Capital, and the Indemnified Party shall use, and cause its Affiliates to use,

commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance and indemnity, contribution or similar provisions covering such Covered Loss to the same extent as it would if such Covered Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder.

Upon making any payment to the Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim pursuant to this Article X, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to any rights which the Indemnified Party may have against

any third-party insurers and any third parties that do not have any material ongoing relationship with MetalCo, its Affiliates or the Business with respect to the subject matter underlying such indemnification claim, and the Indemnified Party shall

assign any such rights to the Indemnifying Party upon the written request of the Indemnifying Party.

(b) Neither the MetalCo Indemnified

Parties nor the Silgan Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover for the same Covered Loss more than once under this Article X or otherwise under this Agreement or any Transaction Document even if a claim for indemnification or

otherwise in respect of such Covered Loss has been made as a result of a breach of more than one covenant, agreement or representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any Transaction Document.

10.8 Limitation on Liability.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including this Article X), solely with respect to

indemnifiable liability pursuant to Section 10.2, no Party shall be liable to any other Party or its Affiliates, or its or their respective Representatives, whether in contract, tort (including negligence and strict

liability) or otherwise, at law or in equity, for any consequential, special, incidental, indirect or similar damages, including lost profits, diminution in value or damages calculated on a multiple of earnings or other similar metrics (in each

case, except to the extent reasonably foreseeable) or exemplary or punitive damages (solely unless such exemplary or punitive damages are awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction in respect of a third-party claim).

121

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) no MetalCo

Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any Covered Losses attributable to Taxes: (A) imposed with respect to any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date (other than Taxes attributable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or to the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date (as determined in accordance with Section 7.9(d)), whenever assessed or imposed) or (B) to

the extent attributable to MetalCo’s breach of any of the covenants contained in this Agreement and (ii) any Covered Losses attributable to Taxes shall be limited to the cash Tax liability that is imposed on the MetalCo Indemnified

Parties, after taking into account (A) any available Tax attributes (including any net operating loss carryforwards) that are available and to the extent that such attributes actually reduce the cash Tax liability related to such Taxes and

(B) any prior Tax payments or deposits made in connection with such Taxes that are available and to the extent that such attributed actually reduce the cash Tax liability related to such Taxes; provided that (x) Tax attributes shall

be taken into account under clause (A) only to the extent attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period and actually available to the applicable Acquired Company in the taxable period in which such Taxes

become payable, and (y) Tax payments and deposits shall be taken into account under clause (B) only to the extent made by SHI or any of its Affiliates prior to the Closing, and, in the case of both (A) and (B), not otherwise taken

into account in the determination of the Final Aggregate Adjustment Amount.

10.9 Mitigation. Each Party agrees to mitigate its

respective Covered Losses to the extent required by applicable Law upon and after becoming aware of any event or condition that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Covered Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder.

10.10 Proportionate Recovery.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including

Section 10.8 and any provision excluding Fraud from any limitation on liability or recovery), following the Closing, if SHI or A-VL Holdings, or any Person claiming by, through or on

behalf of such persons, asserts a MetalCo Claim, the MetalCo Losses recoverable in respect of such MetalCo Claim shall in all cases be limited to (i) such MetalCo Losses multiplied by (ii) the Ownership Percentage of SHI or A-VL Holdings, as applicable. The Ownership Percentage is determined as of the date on which the MetalCo Losses are incurred or suffered. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.10

applies only to the extent such MetalCo Losses are otherwise recoverable under this Agreement.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt,

(i) this Section 10.10 shall not apply to any Covered Losses incurred or suffered directly by SHI or A-VL Holdings other than MetalCo Losses, including Covered Losses arising

from any claim asserted by a third party directly against it, and its reasonable out-of-pocket costs of enforcing its rights under this

Section 10.10 and (ii) this Section 10.10 shall not apply to, or limit the Covered Losses recoverable by MetalCo in respect of, any claim asserted by or in the name of MetalCo or any of its

Subsidiaries.

122

through MetalCo and its Subsidiaries, each of SHI and A-VL Holdings bears MetalCo Losses only indirectly, in proportion to its Ownership Percentage and the amount determined under

Section 10.10 is the full measure of the MetalCo Losses suffered by SHI or A-VL Holdings as applicable in respect of a MetalCo Claim, including a MetalCo Claim for Fraud.

ARTICLE XI

negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement or the Transactions (including legal, accounting and other professional fees and any MetalCo Expenses previously paid by such Party or its controlled Affiliates), to the extent provided in,

and in accordance with, the Cost Sharing Agreement and (B) MetalCo shall reimburse SHI for (x) all Reorganization Costs paid by SHI or its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies) prior to the Closing, up to the Reorganization Costs

receipt of reasonable supporting documentation. In the event of any conflict between this Section 11.1 and the Cost Sharing Agreement, the Cost Sharing Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Party

obtains an injunction, a decree or order of specific performance or other remedy, the other Party (other than an Affiliate of such Party) shall reimburse such Party for all

out-of-pocket expenses (including all fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, financial advisors, experts and consultants) incurred by or on behalf of such Party or

any Affiliate of such Party in connection with obtaining such injunction, a decree or Order of specific performance or other remedy.

SECTION 11.2(D).

124

11.3 Entire Agreement.

(a) This Agreement (including the Silgan Disclosure Schedules and any other Schedules and Exhibits hereto), the other Transaction Documents,

the Confidentiality Agreement, and each other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby, executed or to be executed in connection with the Transactions (collectively, the “Specified Documents”), represent

the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, discussions, negotiations, correspondence, communications, undertakings and

understandings among the Parties with respect to the Transactions. The Parties have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, liabilities and obligations with respect to the Transactions exclusively in contract pursuant to the express terms and

provisions of this Agreement and the other Specified Documents, and the Parties expressly disclaim that they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not expressly set forth in this Agreement or the other Specified Documents. Furthermore,

the Parties each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations; the Parties specifically acknowledge that no Party has any special

relationship with another Party that would justify any expectation beyond that of ordinary parties in an arm’s-length transaction.

(b) The sole and exclusive remedies for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including any representations and warranties

set forth herein, made in connection herewith or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) or any claim or cause of action otherwise arising out of or related to the Transactions (other than in the case of Fraud) shall be those remedies

available at law or in equity for breach of contract against the Parties to this Agreement only (as such contractual remedies have been further limited or excluded pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement), and the Parties hereby agree that

no Party shall have any remedies or causes of action (whether in contract, tort, statute or otherwise) for any statements, communications, disclosures, failures to disclose, representations or warranties not explicitly set forth in this Agreement.

Nothing in this Section 11.3(b) shall limit the obligations of any Person under, or any right or remedy of any Person under, any other Transaction Document to which such Person is a party, in accordance with the terms

thereof.

11.4 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by MetalCo, A-VL Holdings and SHI. No waiver by any Party of any provision of this Agreement or any breach of this Agreement hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed

by the Party making such waiver. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any Party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with any representation,

warranty, covenant, or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent

breach. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such Party

preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

125

11.5 Notices. All notices, requests, instructions, demands and other communications

under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (a) when delivered personally by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) when sent by e-mail (provided that non-automated confirmation of email receipt is obtained) on the date of such transmission or (c) when received by the addressee if sent by nationally recognized overnight delivery service (with written

confirmation of receipt), in each case, at the following addresses (or to such other address as a Party may have specified by notice given to the other Parties pursuant to this provision) (provided that all notices and other communications

11.6 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any Law or

public policy, all other terms or provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such

determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an

acceptable manner in order that the Transactions are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

11.7

Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or obligations hereunder may be

made by any Party, directly or indirectly (by operation of Law or otherwise), without the prior written consent of the other Parties and any attempted assignment without the required consents shall be void; provided that MetalCo may, in its

sole discretion, without the consent of any other Parties, assign its rights, interests and obligations hereunder (a) to any Affiliate of MetalCo, but must remain liable hereunder, and (b) for collateral security purposes to any lender

providing financing to MetalCo. No assignment of any obligations hereunder shall relieve the Parties of any such obligations.

127

11.8 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided herein, this

Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall give or be construed to give any rights, remedies or claims of any nature upon any Person

other than the Parties and their respective successors or permitted assigns; provided, however, that the Parties specifically acknowledge and agree that (i) the provisions of Section 11.12 hereof are

intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the MetalCo Released Parties and the Silgan Released Parties, (ii) the Debt Financing Sources are express third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions of

Section 11.14 and (iii) the Non-Parties are express third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce Section 11.10. All of the Persons identified as

third-party beneficiaries in the immediately preceding sentence shall be entitled to enforce such provisions and to avail themselves of the benefits of any remedy for any breach of such provisions, all to the same extent as if such Persons were

parties to this Agreement.

11.9 Legal Representation.

(a) MetalCo hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) (all such

parties, the “Waiving Parties”), that (i) Jenner & Block LLP (or any successor) (“Jenner”) may represent SHI or any of its directors, members, partners, officers, employees or Affiliates

(collectively, the “Silgan Group”) in connection with any dispute, litigation, claim, proceeding or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or

thereby adverse to the Waiving Parties, notwithstanding its representation of the Acquired Companies. MetalCo, on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby consents thereto and waives (and will not assert) any conflict of interest, breach of

duty or any other objection arising therefrom or relating thereto.

(b) MetalCo, on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby

acknowledges and agrees that all communications, written or oral, between any of the Acquired Companies or any Person in the Silgan Group and its counsel currently representing SHI and the Acquired Companies in connection with this Agreement, the

other Transaction Documents or any other agreements or transactions contemplated hereby, including Jenner, made in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance under, or any dispute or Legal Proceeding arising

out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Transaction Documents or the Transactions, or any matter relating to any of the foregoing, are privileged communications that do not pass to the Acquired Companies notwithstanding the Transactions, and

instead survive, remain with and are controlled by SHI (the “Privileged Communications”), without any waiver thereof.

(c) MetalCo, on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby further agrees that none of MetalCo or any of its Affiliates (including,

following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) shall have the right to use any such Privileged Communications. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 11.9 shall not apply to claims for Fraud or any dispute or Legal

Proceeding involving any Person other than the Silgan Group.

11.10 Non-Recourse. Except in

the case of Fraud, (a) this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Related Claims may only be made or asserted against (and are expressly limited to) the Persons that are expressly identified as the Parties in the preamble to and

signature pages of this Agreement and then solely in their capacities as such and solely with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such Person; (b) no Person who is not a named party to this Agreement, including

any current, former or future Affiliate or Related Person

128

or Representative of any Party or any current, former, or future Affiliate or Representative of any of the foregoing (such Persons, collectively, but specifically excluding the Parties,

“Non-Parties”), shall have or be deemed to have any liability (whether at law or in equity, based upon contract, tort, statute, based upon any theory that seeks to impose liability of any

Party against its owners or Affiliates or otherwise) for any obligations or liabilities whatsoever arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement, the Transactions (or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made

in connection therewith) or for any Related Claim and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, each Party hereby irrevocably disclaims reliance on any such Non-Party and irrevocably waives and

releases all such liabilities, obligations and Related Claims against any such Non-Party; and (c) without limiting the rights of any Party against the other Parties as set forth herein, in no event shall

any Party, any of its Affiliates or any Person claiming by, through or on behalf of any of them institute any Related Claim against any Non-Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this

Section 11.10, nothing in this Section 11.10 shall (x) be deemed to limit any liabilities of the Equity Financing Source or A-VL Holdings to MetalCo or

SHI under the Equity Commitment Letter or serve as a waiver of any right on the part of MetalCo or SHI (including as an express third-party beneficiary of the Equity Commitment Letter) to initiate any Legal Proceedings permitted pursuant to, and in

accordance with, the specific terms of the Equity Commitment Letter, (y) limit claims of any Party for Fraud, and (z) limit the obligations of any Person under, or any right or remedy of any Person under, any other Transaction Document to

which such Person is a party, in accordance with the terms thereof.

11.11 Specific Performance.

(a) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in

accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that money damages or legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. Therefore, it is accordingly agreed that prior to the valid termination of this Agreement

in accordance with Section 9.1, each Party shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by any other Party and to enforce specifically the

terms and provisions of this Agreement, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of any other Party, in any court of competent jurisdiction. Such remedies shall be in addition to and

not in substitution for any other remedy to which such Party is entitled at law or in equity. If, prior to the applicable Termination Date, any Party brings any Legal Proceeding, in each case, in accordance with

Section 11.2, to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other Party, the applicable Termination Date shall be automatically extended by (i) the amount of time during which such

Legal Proceeding is pending, plus 20 Business Days or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Legal Proceeding, as the case may be; provided that in no event shall the applicable Termination Date be

extended pursuant to this Section 11.11(a) beyond April 13, 2028.

(b) Each Party hereby (i) agrees not to

oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided herein, on the basis that the other Party has an adequate remedy at law and (ii) waives any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other

security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

129

Section 11.11, no Party shall in any respect waive its right to seek at any time any other form of relief that may be available to it under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including monetary damages) in

the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 11.11 are not available or otherwise are not granted, and (ii) nothing set forth in this

Section 11.11 shall require any Party to institute any proceeding for (or limit any Party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 11.11 prior to or as

a condition to exercising any termination right under Article IX, nor shall the commencement of any Legal Proceeding pursuant to this Section 11.11 or anything set forth in this

Section 11.11 restrict or limit any Party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article IX or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document that

may be available then or thereafter.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if and only if all of the conditions

set forth in Section 2 of the Equity Commitment Letter have been satisfied (it being agreed that A-VL Holdings shall not be entitled to assert the failure of any such condition that the Equity Financing

Source is not entitled to assert thereunder): (i) A-VL Holdings shall cause the Equity Financing to be funded at the Closing and (ii) each of SHI and MetalCo shall be entitled to (A) specific

performance of A-VL Holdings’ obligations under this Agreement, including the obligation set forth in clause (i) and A-VL Holdings’ obligations to

consummate the Transactions and effect the Closing, and (B) enforce the Equity Commitment Letter directly against the Equity Financing Source and/or A-VL Holdings in accordance with its terms (including

specific performance of the Equity Financing Source’s obligation to fund the Equity Financing Commitment and of A-VL Holdings’ obligation to apply the proceeds thereof), in each case of

(A) and (B), in accordance with, and subject to no conditions other than those set forth in, Section 2 of the Equity Commitment Letter. Nothing in this Section 11.11(d) shall limit the rights of the Parties under

the other provisions of this Section 11.11, or the right of any Party to enforce any other obligation under this Agreement or the Equity Commitment Letter, in each case in accordance with its terms.

11.12 Release.

(a)

Effective as of the Closing Date, except for any rights or obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, MetalCo on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) and each of its current, former

and future officers, directors, employees, partners, members, advisors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “MetalCo Releasing Parties”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, releases and forever discharges

SHI, its Affiliates and each of their respective current, former and future officers, directors, employees, partners, members, owners, advisors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Silgan Released Parties”) of and from

any and all actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings, executions, judgments, duties, debts, dues, accounts, bonds, contracts and covenants (whether express or implied), and claims and demands whatsoever whether in law or in equity which the

MetalCo Releasing Parties now have or in the future may have against each of the Silgan Released Parties, in each case, in respect of any cause, matter or thing relating to the ownership of the Business by the Silgan Released Parties, in each case,

occurring or arising on or prior to the Closing Date, but, to the extent applicable, only to the extent that such cause, matter or thing does not otherwise constitute Fraud. MetalCo, on behalf of itself and each MetalCo Releasing Party, covenants

and agrees that no MetalCo Releasing Party shall assert any such claim against the Silgan Released Parties.

130

(b) Effective as of the Closing Date, except for any rights or obligations under this

Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, SHI on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates and each of its current, former and future officers, directors, employees, partners, members, advisors, successors and assigns (collectively, the

“Silgan Releasing Parties”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, releases and forever discharges MetalCo, the Acquired Companies and their respective Affiliates and each of their respective current, former and future

officers, directors, employees, partners, members, owners, advisors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “MetalCo Released Parties”) of and from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings,

executions, judgments, duties, debts, dues, accounts, bonds, contracts and covenants (whether express or implied), and claims and demands whatsoever whether in law or in equity which the Silgan Releasing Parties now have or in the future may have

against each of the MetalCo Released Parties, in each case, in respect of any cause, matter or thing relating to the ownership of the Business by the MetalCo Released Parties, in each case, occurring or arising on or prior to the Closing Date, but,

to the extent applicable, only to the extent that such cause, matter or thing does not otherwise constitute Fraud. SHI, on behalf of itself and each Silgan Releasing Party, covenants and agrees that no Silgan Releasing Party shall assert any such

claim against the MetalCo Released Parties.

11.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts

including by means of electronic transmission, such as by electronic mail in “.pdf” form, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and

the same agreement.

11.14 Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, SHI, on behalf of

itself, the Acquired Companies and each of its controlled Affiliates hereby:

(a) without limiting the rights of MetalCo under the Debt

Commitment Letter or any right or remedy available to any Person under the definitive documentation governing the Debt Financing, agrees that none of the Debt Financing Sources will have any liability to the Acquired Companies, SHI or any of their

respective controlled Affiliates relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, whether in law or

in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise;

(b) agrees that any proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract

or in tort or otherwise, involving the Debt Financing Sources, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the agreements (including the Debt Commitment Letter) entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or

any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, and any appellate

court thereof and each Party irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court;

131

(without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the Laws of another state), except as otherwise provided in the Debt Commitment Letter or other applicable definitive document relating to the Debt

Financing;

(d) agrees not to bring or support or permit any of its Affiliates to bring or support any proceeding of any kind or

description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Debt Financing Source in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated

hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder in any forum other than any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York;

(e) agrees that service of process upon SHI, the Acquired Companies or their respective controlled Affiliates in any such proceeding shall be

effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 11.5;

(f) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent

that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Legal Proceeding in any such court;

(g)

knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, trial by jury in any proceeding involving any Debt Financing Source in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt

Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder; and

(h) agrees

that the Debt Financing Sources are express third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions of this Section 11.14 and that such provisions and the definition of “Debt Financing Source” (and

the other related definitions used in such provisions and definition and any other provisions of this Agreement to the extent an amendment thereof would serve to modify or waive the substance of such provisions or definitions) shall not be amended

in any way adverse to any Debt Financing Source without the prior written consent of such Debt Financing Source.

Notwithstanding the

foregoing, nothing in this Section 11.14 shall in any way limit or modify the rights and obligations of MetalCo under this Agreement or any Debt Financing Source’s obligations to MetalCo under any debt commitment

letter or to MetalCo (and following the Closing Date, the Acquired Companies) under the definitive agreements governing the Debt Financing. This Section 11.14 shall, with respect to the matters referenced herein, supersede

any provision of this Agreement to the contrary.

convenient to or for the furtherance of the purposes described herein and additionally as provided in the Delaware Act and/or applicable law. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, the Members hereby consent to the exercise by the Board

of all such powers and rights conferred on them pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and by the Delaware Act with respect to the management and governance of the Company. No Member, in such capacity as a Member, shall have any power to act

for, sign for or do any act that would bind the Company, unless expressly permitted by this Agreement or otherwise authorized by the Board. The Board shall have all the rights and powers that may be possessed by a manager under the Delaware Act and

each Director shall constitute a “manager” of the Company, as defined in the Delaware Act. To the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware Act and the laws of the State of Delaware, except as otherwise provided herein, no Units or other

Securities in the Company shall have any voting, approval or consent rights with respect to any matter, including the approval of any Sale Transaction.

(b) Board Size. The initial Board shall consist of five Directors. Subject to

Section 4.3(b), the Silgan Investors shall have the right to increase or decrease the then current size of the Board by providing the Company written notice.

(i) From the date of this Agreement until the consummation of an Initial Public Offering (the “Pre-IPO Period”), the Board shall consist solely of the following Persons (subject to the other provisions of this Section 4.1):

(A) the number of designees of the Silgan Investors equal to the Silgan Board Representation Number (the “Silgan

Designated Directors”); and

(B) the number of designees of the A-VL

Investors equal to the A-VL Board Representation Number (the “A-VL Designated Directors”).

(ii) For so long as the Silgan Investors are entitled to designate the Silgan Designated Directors under this Agreement, the

Silgan Investors shall have the sole right to remove the Silgan Designated Directors, subject, in the case of any Silgan Designated Director then serving as the Chairperson, to Section 4.1(f) and

Section 4.3(b)(vi) (and any such removal shall be deemed a removal of such Person from the position of the Chairperson for purposes thereof). For so long as the A-VL Investors are

entitled to designate the A-VL Designated Directors under this Agreement, the A-VL Investors shall have the sole right to remove the

A-VL Designated Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) in no event shall any Director be a Restricted Person, (B) each Investor agrees to not knowingly appoint a Restricted Person as a

Director, and (C) the applicable Investor shall take all necessary action to remove any Director if such Director is or becomes a Restricted Person.

(iii) For so long as the Silgan Investors are entitled to designate at least one (1) Director under this Agreement, the

Silgan Investors shall have the right in their reasonable discretion to designate up to two (2) (or, if the A-VL Investors consent in writing with respect to any particular meeting, more than two (2)) non-voting observers for meetings of the Board. For so long as the A-VL Investors are entitled to designate at least one (1) Director under this Agreement, the A-VL Investors shall have the right in their reasonable discretion to designate up to two (2) (or, if the Silgan Investors consent in writing with respect to any particular meeting, more than two (2)) non-voting observers for meetings of the Board, provided, that (a) each such observer shall be required to execute and deliver to the Company a confidentiality agreement, in a form acceptable to the

Board, with respect to all information obtained in its capacity as an observer and (b) information may be withheld from any observer, and the observer may be excluded from any meeting or portion thereof, if (as determined in good faith by the

Board) access to such information or materials or attendance at such meeting (i) would or would likely result in the waiver of the attorney client or work product privilege between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and its or their

respective counsel, (ii) would or would be reasonably likely to contravene any bona fide confidentiality obligations to which the Company or any of its Affiliates is bound or (iii) would or would be reasonably likely to result in any bona

fide conflict of interest involving such observer.

(iv) The Board and each of the Members will take all Necessary Action

to effect the composition of, or any change of the members of, the Board as contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that the Silgan Board Representation Number is reduced pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, unless the A-VL Investors otherwise agree in writing, the Silgan Investors shall cause the applicable directors to resign promptly from the Board. In the event that the A-VL Board

Representation Number is reduced pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, unless the Silgan Investors otherwise agree in writing, the A-VL Investors shall cause the applicable directors to resign promptly from

the Board.

(v) For the avoidance of doubt, the Director designation right(s) of the

Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors shall be transferable via an assignment by the transferring Investor of its Director designation right(s) in connection with the Transfer of Units, with the entitlement

of the transferee (and in the event of a partial sale, the entitlement of each of the transferor and the transferee) determined by its holdings as a percentage of the initial Units held at Closing of the original appointing Investor;

provided, that the aggregate appointment rights of an Investor and its transferees shall not exceed such Investor’s original entitlement (i.e., if the A-VL Investors transfer 50% of their initial

Units and retains the other 50% of its initial Units, the A-VL Investors and the transferee will be entitled to appoint no more than two Directors in the aggregate, assuming that together the A-VL Investors and the transferee own at least 49.9% of the A-VL Investors’ initial Units). By way of further example, if the

A-VL Investors sell 50% of their initial Units to a transferee and retain the remaining 50% of its initial Units, the A-VL Investors may, in connection with such sale,

assign to the transferee one or both of their Director designation rights; in such case: (A) if the A-VL Investors assign one designation right, the A-VL Investors

will retain the right to appoint one Director and the transferee will initially be entitled to appoint one Director; (B) if the A-VL Investors assign both designation rights, the A-VL Investors will retain no designation rights and the transferee will initially be entitled to appoint both Directors; and (C) if the A-VL Investors do not assign any

designation rights, the A-VL Investors will retain the right to appoint two Directors and the transferee will have no designation rights.

(d) Subsidiary Boards. During the Pre-IPO Period, the Company shall take all Necessary Action,

and shall cause the Subsidiaries of the Company to take all Necessary Action, to cause the board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of any Subsidiary of the Company to include such directors designated by the Board; provided, that if

any such governing body includes any Silgan Designated Directors (such governing body, a “Subsidiary Board”), the A-VL Investors may elect in writing that the

A-VL Designated Directors shall also be included on such Subsidiary Board in the same approximate proportion as representation on a Committee is determined in accordance with

Section 4.1(e).

(e) Committees. The Board may establish such committees (each, a

“Committee”) as the Board shall approve, with such authority as the Board shall so determine from time to time. During the Pre-IPO Period, for so long as an Investor is entitled to designate

at least one (1) Director under this Agreement, such Investor shall also have the right to designate one or more of its designated Directors to be included on all Committees. Any such designation shall be approximately proportionate to an

Investor’s director designation rights on the Board; provided, that, such designation need not be proportionate if the Board reasonably determines that applicable law (including the requirements of the SEC and any securities exchange

upon which securities of the IPO Corporation are listed) requires otherwise or if there is a conflict of interest involving the applicable designated Directors; provided, further, if there is one (1) or more Silgan Designated

Directors on any committee of the Board, there shall be at least one (1) A-VL Designated Director on such committee (for so long as the A-VL Investors have the

right to designate at least one (1) Director under this Agreement) (e.g., if, based on the Board composition at the Effective Date, there is a committee of the Board comprised of three (3) members, if the

A-VL Investors have one (1) individual appointed to such committee and the Silgan Investors have two (2) individuals appointed to such committee, that shall be considered approximately proportionate

representation), and vice versa.

(f) Chairperson. Subject to Section 4.3, the Chairperson of

the Board, each Subsidiary Board and each Committee (the “Governing Body”) shall be appointed by the Silgan Investors for so long as the Silgan Investors have the right to designate at least one (1) Director under this

Agreement. The Silgan Investors may remove any Person from the position of the Chairperson; provided, that prior to the three (3) year anniversary of the Effective Date, the Silgan Investors may not remove any Person from the position of

the Chairperson without the consent of the A-VL Investors except for Cause, as determined by either the board of directors of Silgan Holdings (with twenty-four (24) hour prior notice of such determination

delivered to either of the A-VL Designated Directors) or the Board. Unless otherwise determined in writing by the relevant Governing Body, the person serving as Chairperson shall not be deemed to be an officer

of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries solely by virtue of his or her role as Chairperson. The Chairperson shall preside at all meetings of the Governing Body at which he or she is present.

(g) Quorum; Manner of Acting.

(i) In order to establish a quorum of any meeting of a Governing Body, there shall be present (x) a majority of the

aggregate voting power of all members of such Governing Body, (y) at least one Silgan Designated Director (to the extent a Silgan Designated Director is a member of such Governing Body) and (z) an

A-VL Designated Director (to the extent an A-VL Designated Director is a member of such Governing Body). In the event a quorum is not constituted due solely to the

failure to satisfy either clause (y) and/or clause (z) above, such meeting may be adjourned and subsequently reconvened upon notice to each director of the applicable Governing Body by mail or email, or transmitted via other electronic

means, at least 24 hours before such reconvened meeting, or by delivering the same personally at least 24 hours before such reconvened meeting, setting forth in reasonable detail the specific matters to be conducted at such meeting (which shall be

the same as for the original meeting), and (subject to Section 4.1(g)(ii)) the presence of at least one Silgan Designated Director, one A-VL Designated Director or both (as

applicable) shall not be necessary to establish a quorum for such subsequently reconvened meeting. If any Director designated by an Investor is not present at a meeting of the Board (or there is a vacancy), then any other Director designated by such

Investor may exercise the voting power of all absent or vacant Directors that such Investor is entitled to designate. If a Director designated by an Investor is unable to attend any meeting of the Board, such Investor may, by advance written notice

(email sufficing) to the rest of the Directors, designate an alternative individual (an “Alternate Designee”) to attend such meeting and act as such Investor’s designee for only such meeting; and following such meeting, the

Alternate Designee shall cease to have any rights or authority with respect to the Board; provided, that no Alternate Designee shall be a Restricted Person.

(ii) All actions of a Governing Body taken at a meeting shall require the affirmative vote of a majority of the aggregate

voting power of all members of such Governing Body. At any meeting of a Governing Body or with respect to any written consent in lieu of such meeting, each director shall be entitled to cast one (1) vote.

(h) Meetings; Action Without a Meeting.

(i) Place of Meetings. Meetings of any Governing Body may be held at any place within or without the State of Delaware,

as may from time to time be fixed by resolution of the Chairperson of such Governing Body or by such Governing Body, or as may be specified in the notice of meeting.

(ii) Participation by Conference Call. Any or all members of a Governing Body may participate in a meeting of such

Governing Body by means of a conference telephone, video or other communications equipment allowing all Persons participating in the meeting to hear each other at the same time. Participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at the

meeting.

(iii) Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of a Governing Body may be

held at such times and places as the Chairperson of such Governing Body or such Governing Body reasonably determines, upon written notice to all of the directors of such Governing Body, such notice including the place, date and time and the purpose

or purposes of each regular meeting of such Governing Body and delivered by mail or email, or transmitted via other electronic means, at least two (2) Business Days before such regular meeting, or by delivering the same personally at least two

(2) Business Days before such regular meeting. Notice of any regular meeting of such Governing Body need not be given to any director of such Governing Body, however, if waived by him or her orally or in writing whether before or after such

meeting is held, or if he or she shall be present at such meeting, and any meeting of such Governing Body shall be a legal meeting without any notice thereof having been given, if all the directors of such Governing Body then in office are present;

except when one or more director(s) of such Governing Body attends a meeting solely for the express purpose of objecting, and in fact such director objects, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is

not called or convened in accordance with this Agreement.

(iv) Special Meetings. Special meetings of a Governing

Body may be called by the Chairperson of such Governing Body or by the directors having a majority of the total voting power of such Governing Body. A notice of the place, date and time and the purpose or purposes of each special meeting of such

Governing Body shall be given to each director of such Governing Body by mail or email, or transmitted via other electronic means, at least 48 hours before such special meeting, or by delivering the same personally at least 24 hours before such

special meeting. Notice of any special meeting of such Governing Body need not be given to any director of such Governing Body, however, if waived by him or her in writing whether before or after such meeting is held, or if he or she shall be

present at such meeting, and any such meeting of such Governing Body shall be a legal meeting without any notice thereof having been given, if all the directors of such Governing Body then in office are present, except, in any such case, when one or

more director(s) of such Governing Body attends a meeting solely for the express purpose of objecting, and in fact such director objects, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not called or

convened in accordance with this Agreement.

(v) Action Without a Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be

(i) (A) increase or decrease the size of (x) the Board or (y) any

reorganization, share exchange, business combination or otherwise), amend or refinance any indebtedness (including capital leases) in a manner that increases the aggregate outstanding principal amount of loans or similar indebtedness or guarantee or

endorse the obligations of any unaffiliated third party, which would result in a consolidated leverage ratio (as calculated under the Credit Agreement, after giving pro forma effect to any reserves reasonably set by the Board from time to time for

average net working capital of the Company and its Subsidiaries based on a trailing twelve-month average) of the Company and its Subsidiaries in excess of 4.5x EBITDA, or (b) make any loan or capital contribution to any unaffiliated third

(vii) subject to Section 4.3(d), hire or appoint

the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (or the Company’s primary executive Officer, however denominated) (provided, that (a) such Investor’s consent to any such change shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or

delayed and (b) subject to Section 4.3(d), removal of any Person from such position with or without “cause” (as defined in the Employee-Related Agreement of such Officer, if applicable) shall require only

Board approval, and shall not require the consent of any Investor). For the avoidance of doubt this Section 4.3(b)(vii) shall not apply to the initial Chairperson who is also serving as an interim CEO;

(viii) create, authorize the creation of, or issue any new series or class of equity interests by the Company or any of its

with such proposed matter, the consent of such Investor shall be deemed given.

(ii) Without limiting

Section 4.3(e)(i), if any proposed matter requires the consent of an Investor under this Section 4.3 and (x) such consent is requested in writing and (y) such Investor objects, the

proposed matter may be escalated to senior management of each of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors to try to resolve.

(f) Respective Rights of Silgan Holdings and the A-VL Investors.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including Section 4.3(a)(vi), with respect to

any rights of the Company vis-à-vis the A-VL Investors or any obligations of the

A-VL Investors owed to the Company pursuant to any Specified Transaction Document, Silgan Holdings will have the sole ability to enforce such rights or obligations on behalf of the Company.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including Section 4.3(a)(vi), with respect to any rights of the

Company vis-à-vis Silgan Holdings or any obligations of Silgan Holdings owed to the Company pursuant to any Specified Transaction Document, the A-VL Investors will have the sole ability to enforce such rights or obligations on behalf of the Company.

(g) Consulting Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Consulting Agreement, for so long as the

consent of the A-VL Investors would be required under Section 4.3(b)(vi) to remove the Chairperson, Silgan Holdings shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and any assignee of the

Consulting Agreement not to, without the prior written consent of the A-VL Investors, (i) terminate (or deliver notice to terminate) the Consulting Agreement, whether unilaterally or by agreement, other

than for Cause (as determined in accordance with and pursuant to Section 4.1(f)) or (ii) amend, waive or assign the Consulting Agreement, or enter into any other arrangement with the initial Chairperson, (A) in a

manner that circumvents clause (i) of this Section 4.3(g) or Section 4.3(b)(vi), including by changing the termination provisions of, or reducing the initial Chairperson’s compensation

under, the Consulting Agreement or (B) that increases the initial Chairperson’s compensation under the Consulting Agreement or otherwise in his role as Chairperson. Any assignment of the Consulting Agreement shall be conditioned on the

assignee agreeing in writing to be bound by this Section 4.3(g). Section 4.3(e)(i) shall not apply to any consent under this Section 4.3(g).

Section 4.4. Business Perspective. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall

maintain a rolling five-year business perspective (the “Business Perspective”), which shall include an annual budget (the “Budget”) for the first year of such Business Perspective. The initial Business Perspective,

adopted as of the Effective Date, is set forth on Exhibit D and includes the initial Budget for the period from the Effective Date through the end of the first full fiscal year following the year in which the Effective Date occurs. For every

subsequent fiscal year, the Company shall prepare and submit a draft Business Perspective (including a draft Budget for the next fiscal year) to the Board for approval. At least thirty (30) days prior to submission of such Business Perspective

and Budget to the Board for approval, the Company shall provide a complete draft thereof to each Investor (for so long as such Investor has the right to designate at least one (1) Director under this Agreement), and each of the Company and each

such Investor shall reasonably and in good faith consider any comments provided by any other such Investor and attend a reasonable number of meetings (in person or by means of a conference telephone or other communications equipment allowing all

Persons participating in the meeting to hear each other at the same time) as any such Investor may reasonably request to discuss their comments to such draft Business Perspective and draft Budget.

Section 4.5. Management Investment Vehicles.

(a) Generally.

(i) MIV Securities Exchange. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with the consummation of a

Drag Along Sale, the Silgan Investors, in accordance with the terms of the governing documents of the applicable Management Investment Vehicle, may require that the applicable Management Investment Vehicle repurchase or redeem any Securities of the

applicable Management Investment Vehicle in exchange for a number of Securities of the Company having a fair market value equal to the fair market value of such Securities of the applicable Management Investment Vehicle being so exchanged (as

determined in good faith by the Board), with such Securities representing direct economic ownership of the Company that is substantially equivalent to the indirect economic ownership of the applicable Management Investment Vehicle represented by

such Securities of the applicable Management Investment Vehicle (any such transaction, a “MIV Securities Exchange”); provided, that, no MIV Securities Exchange shall (x) adversely affect the economic interests of the

Silgan Investors or the A-VL Investors, other than any dilution on a pro rata basis with the other Unitholders, or (y) adversely affect the governance rights of the Institutional Investors. For the

avoidance of doubt, any Drag Along Sale may be structured such that a MIV Securities Exchange is consummated immediately prior to or in connection with the Drag Along Sale, as applicable.

(ii) Redemption or Forfeiture of Securities of, or held by, a Management Investment Vehicle. In the event that any

Securities of a Management Investment Vehicle are repurchased, redeemed or forfeited by the applicable holder thereof, the Company shall repurchase or redeem from the applicable Management Investment Vehicle or the applicable Management Investment

Vehicle shall automatically forfeit, as applicable, a proportionate number of Securities of the Company that had been issued to the applicable Management Investment Vehicle in connection with the issuance by the applicable Management Investment

Vehicle to such holder. In the event that any Securities of the Company are repurchased, redeemed or forfeited by a Management Investment Vehicle, the applicable Management Investment Vehicle shall repurchase or redeem from the applicable holder

thereof or the applicable holder thereof shall automatically forfeit, as applicable, a proportionate number of Securities of the applicable Management Investment Vehicle that had been issued to the applicable holder thereof in connection with the

issuance to the applicable Management Investment Vehicle by the Company.

(b) Necessary Actions. Each Unitholder shall take all Necessary Action to effectuate

any MIV Securities Exchange or other transaction contemplated by this Section 4.5.

costs, fees and expenses incurred by, or relating to, a Management Investment Vehicle or any Investor in connection with the administration or conduct of any Management Investment Vehicle, including any MIV Securities Exchange, shall be borne by the

Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, that any fees and expenses incurred by, or relating to, a Management Investment Vehicle of the type contemplated by clause (ii) of the definition thereof, shall only be borne by the Company

or any of its Subsidiaries with the prior written consent of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors.

Section 4.6. Pension Plans. It is the intention of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL

Investors that any Pension Plan that is overfunded as of the Effective Date be terminated as soon as reasonably practicable in a manner to best maximize the after-tax reversion of excess Pension Plan assets to

the Company as shall be determined by the Board, and the parties agree to work in good faith to timely effectuate the same prior to any Initial Public Offering or Sale Transaction. Each of the Silgan Investors, the

A-VL Investors and the Company acknowledge that any reversions attributable to terminated Pension Plans are subject to federal excise taxes of up to 50% and are subject to corporate income taxes (including

treatment as recovery of a prior deduction). The Board shall have the authority to terminate such Pension Plans and shall analyze available methods prescribed by the Code to accomplish the foregoing, including the reduction of applicable excise

taxes under Code Section 4980 by using excess assets from such Pension Plans to increase plan benefits on a pro rata basis (by using 20% of the assets that would have been received as a reversion to do so) or by transferring excess assets to a

qualified replacement plan (by using 25% of the assets that would have been received as a reversion to do so), in either case, in accordance with Code Section 4980(d). The Board shall communicate its intention and procedure regarding any

Pension Plan termination process to the Investors from time to time and when reasonably requested by the Investors. If a Pension Plan is terminated, any Pension Plan assets that revert to the Company or its Subsidiaries shall, after applicable taxes

and reasonable out-of-pocket third party expenses (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those resulting from the application of procedures set forth in Code

Section 4980(d)), be allocated 20% to the A-VL Investors and 80% to the Silgan Investors. The Company shall provide written notice to each of the Silgan Investors and the

A-VL Investors promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) following the determination that any such reversion will be effected, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the

estimated amount of the reversion, the applicable Pension Plan(s) to which it applies, the estimated amounts allocable to each of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors, the anticipated date of payment to

the Company of the reversion, and the estimated amounts to be distributed and anticipated date of distribution to the Investors. Upon realization of any such reversion, the Company shall cause payment of the distributable amounts to be made by wire

transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account identified in writing by each of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors, respectively, within five (5) Business Days of providing written

notice of such realization. The payment of such remaining plan assets to the A-VL Investors shall be treated, solely for U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income

tax purposes, as an adjustment to the purchase of the Units of each respective A-VL Investor unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code. The

Company shall, and the Silgan Investors shall (solely by exercising their rights as Unitholders and under this Agreement to cause the Company to, and only for so long as the Silgan Investors hold any Units), add back to EBITDA all non-cash expenses related to the Pension Plans when (i) the Company is reporting the Company’s EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to lenders, (ii) calculating EBITDA for purposes of

Section 7.6(g) (including in connection with any Spin-Off Request, Conditional Liquidity Transaction or Call Right) or (iii) the Company becomes required to file its reports

pursuant to Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

Section 4.7. TSA Matters. The Investors agree that, for so long as the

Transition Services Agreement is in effect, the A-VL Investors shall have a right to appoint one (1) representative of the Company on the Steering Committee (as defined in the Transition Services

Agreement). In the event that the Company declines to exercise or enforce any of the rights set forth on Exhibit K hereto (the “Scheduled TSA Rights”) under or in connection with the Transition Services Agreement, the A-VL Investors shall have the right to cause the Company to exercise or enforce such Scheduled TSA Right(s) in accordance with the Transition Services Agreement. Other than the Scheduled TSA Rights, the Board shall

exclusively control the exercise or enforcement of any of the Company’s rights under or in connection with the Transition Services Agreement.

(a) The Company (and/or its Subsidiaries, employees and/or agents) shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax returns of the Company for each year for which such returns are required to be filed, shall file, or cause such returns to be timely filed, and shall determine the appropriate treatment of each item of

income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Company and the accounting methods and conventions under the tax Laws of the United States, the several states and other relevant jurisdictions as to the treatment of any such item or any other method

or procedure related to the preparation of such tax returns. All such tax returns of the Company shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with this Agreement unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of

Section 1313 of the Code or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law. Each Member agrees that it shall use reasonable efforts to provide the Company with any information reasonably requested

by the Company that is necessary for the Company and its Subsidiaries to prepare and file tax returns, prepare any tax information requested by a Member, determine the tax treatment of any item, or otherwise determine or mitigate any tax liability

of the Company and its Subsidiaries (or tax liability as reflected on any Company tax return) or comply with any tax filing requirements. The Company shall deliver to each Member (i) as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each

Fiscal Year, an estimate of taxable income for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, (ii) within one-hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, an IRS Schedule K-1 and (iii) upon the request of a Member, all other information reasonably necessary for the preparation of such Member’s tax returns.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Company nor any of its

Subsidiaries shall file any tax return on a combined, consolidated, unitary or similar basis with any of its Members (including any Affiliate thereof). If the Company (or any Subsidiary thereof) is required to file a tax return on a combined,

consolidated, unitary and/or similar basis with any Member (or any Affiliate thereof (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries)), the Company shall reimburse such Member, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the filing of the

applicable tax return, for any tax (and any interest and penalties related thereto) incurred in connection with such combined, consolidated, unitary or similar tax return in an amount equal to the tax (and any interest and penalties related thereto)

the Company (and/or its Subsidiaries) would be liable for if the Company and its applicable Subsidiaries filed such tax return on a standalone basis (without such Member (and any of its Affiliates)). In the event the Company or any Subsidiary is

assessed for any combined, consolidated, unitary or similar taxes (and any interest and penalties related thereto) attributable to any combined, consolidated, unitary or similar tax return filed (or required to be filed) by any Member or Affiliate

thereof, such Member shall reimburse the Company in a manner consistent with the apportionment principles described in the preceding sentence for such Member’s portion of such tax. The Company and each Member agrees to cooperate with each

other with respect to (i) the filing of any tax return that is required to be filed on a combined, consolidated, unitary or similar basis, (ii) any tax audit, examination contest or proceeding related thereto and (iii) any payment

made by the Company to its Member(s) pursuant to this Section 5.4(b). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 5.4(b) shall apply solely with respect to taxable

periods (or portions thereof) beginning after the Closing Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement).

Section 5.5. Treatment

as Partnership. The Members intend that the Company is to be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes and neither the Company, the Board of Directors nor any Member shall make any election or take any

action contrary.

Section 5.6. Section 754 Election. Each Member agrees that the Company and any other Subsidiary classified

as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall make an election under Section 754 of the Code for the taxable year of the Company that includes the effective date of any Initial Public Offering or any other taxable Transfer of

Units by any A-VL Investor. The Board of Directors shall not revoke any election under Section 754 in effect for the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Section 5.7. Tax Matters Member. The Silgan Investors (or any Member selected by the Silgan Investors that agrees in writing with

the Silgan Investors) shall act as or appoint the “partnership representative” within the meaning of Section 6223(a) of the Code (the “Company Representative”), in each case, with all powers attendant thereto, who

shall be authorized and required to represent the Company (at the Company’s expense) in connection with all examinations of the Company’s affairs by tax authorities with respect to the applicable taxable periods (including making an

election under Section 6226 of the Code), including resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, and to expend the Company’s funds for professional services and costs associated therewith. Any Member that is the Company

Representative shall act at the direction of the Board in performing its duties and exercising its powers as the Company Representative. Each Member agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Board of Directors and the Company Representative (including

supplying all information, documents, self-certifications, tax identification numbers, tax forms, and verifications thereof, that the Company Representative reasonably deems necessary in connection with (i) any information required for the

Company to determine the application of Sections 6221-6241 of the Code to the Company, (ii) an election by the Company under Section 6221(b) or 6226 of the Code and (iii) an audit or a final adjustment of the Company by a taxing

authority) and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably required by them to conduct such proceedings; provided, that, such information and disclosure obligations shall be subject in all respects to each respective

Member’s

confidentiality policies and obligations, including with respect to its indirect beneficial owners; provided, further, that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing

in this Agreement shall require a Member to amend or refile a tax return. The Company shall indemnify the Company Representative for any costs, expenses or liabilities incurred as a result of any actions or failures to take actions in its capacity

as Company Representative other than to the extent arising from a breach by such Person of this Agreement or to the extent resulting from such Person’s acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing

violation of law. All actions of the Company or the Company Representative in respect of tax returns or taxes shall be subject to Section 4.3(a)(v) of this Agreement. Any deficiency for taxes imposed on any Member

(including penalties, additions to tax or interest imposed with respect to such taxes) shall be paid by such Member, and if required to be paid (and actually paid) by the Company, shall be recoverable from such Member as provided in

Section 6.2(f); provided, however, that the A-VL Investors shall not be liable for penalties, additions to tax or interest imposed with respect to such taxes if such

indemnity claim is in connection with acts or omissions of the Company which are not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. The provisions of this Section 5.7 and the

obligations of a Member pursuant to this Section 5.7 shall survive a Member ceasing to be a Member of the Company and the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company.

Section 5.8. Section 245A Elections. To the extent the election pursuant to Treasury Regulations

Section 1.245A-5(e)(3) is permitted by applicable law for the taxable year which includes the Closing (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), each Member hereby delegates the authority to the Company

to enter into a binding agreement described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.245A-5(e)(3)(i)(C)(2) on behalf of such Member (and any direct or indirect owners of such Member) in connection with any

transfer of any “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 957(c) of the Code to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement to the extent such Member (or, to the

extent such Member is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal tax purposes, any direct or indirect owners of such Member) is a “U.S. tax resident” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations

Section 1.245A-5 and a United States shareholder within the meaning of Section 951(b) of the Code and the applicable Section 958 regulations with respect to such controlled foreign corporation

as of the end of the date such transfer is consummated.

ARTICLE VI

CAPITAL ACCOUNTS; ALLOCATIONS; DISTRIBUTIONS

Section 6.1. Capital Accounts.

(a) There shall be established for each Member on the books of the Company a Capital Account which shall be increased or decreased in the

manner set forth in this Agreement.

(b) A Member shall not have any obligation to the Company or to any other Member to restore any

negative balance in the Capital Account of such Member.

Section 6.2. Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss and Other Tax

Matters.

(a) Timing and Amount of Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss. Net Income and Net Loss (and items thereof) of the

Company shall be determined and allocated with respect to each fiscal year of the Company as of the end of each such year or as circumstances otherwise require or allow. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.2,

an allocation to a Member of a share of Net Income or Net Loss shall be treated as an allocation of the same share of each item of income, gain, loss or deduction that is taken into account in computing Net Income or Net Loss.

(b) General Allocations. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all Net

Income and Net Loss (and items thereof) shall be allocated in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Member after giving effect to the allocations set forth in Section 6.2(c) is, as nearly as possible, equal

(proportionately) to (i) the distributions that would be made pursuant to Section 6.3 (assuming all Unvested Units are Vested Units) if the Company were dissolved, its affairs wound up and its assets sold for cash

equal to their Gross Asset Value immediately prior to such dissolution, all Company liabilities were satisfied (limited with respect to each non-recourse liability to the Gross Asset Value of the assets

securing such liability) and the net assets of the Company were distributed in accordance with Section 6.3, to the Members immediately after making such allocation, minus (ii) such Member’s share of

Company Minimum Gain and Member Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical sale of assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors may make such allocations as it deems reasonably necessary in good faith to give

economic effect to the provisions of this Agreement, taking into account such facts and circumstances as it deems reasonably necessary for this purpose.

(i) Regulatory Allocations.

(A) If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain or Member Minimum Gain during any fiscal year, the Member shall be

allocated items of Company income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) or

1.704-2(i)(4), as applicable. It is intended that this Section 6.2(c)(i)(A) qualify and be construed as a “minimum gain chargeback” and a “chargeback of partner

nonrecourse debt minimum gain” within the meaning of such Treasury Regulations, which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Treasury Regulations and this Section 6.2(c)(i)(A).

(B) If any Member unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain shall be allocated, in accordance with Treasury Regulations

Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), to the Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by such Treasury Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Member as

quickly as possible. It is intended that this Section 6.2(c)(i)(B) qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations

Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), which shall be controlling in the event of a conflict between such Treasury Regulations and this Section 6.2(c)(i)(B).

(C) Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Members in a manner determined by the Board

in good faith consistent with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(b) and 1.704-2(c).

(D) Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic

risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(1) and 1.704-2(j)(1).

(E) The allocations set forth in

Section 6.2(c)(i)(A) through Section 6.2(c)(i)(D) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain regulatory requirements, including the requirements of

Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.2(b), the Regulatory Allocations shall be

taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member shall be equal to the

net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred (taking into account the likelihood that any such Regulatory Allocations will be offset or reversed in the future by other Regulatory

Allocations).

(ii) For any Fiscal Year during which a Member’s interest in the Company is assigned by such Member

(or by a Transferee or successor in interest to a Member), the portion of the Net Income and Net Loss of the Company that is allocable in respect of such Member’s interest shall be apportioned between the assignor and the Transferee of such

Member’s interest using a closing of the books method, or otherwise using any permissible method under Section 706 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors and the applicable

assignor.

(d) Tax Treatment of Class B Units.

(i) The Members intend that the taxation of the issuance of Class B Units hereunder, shall be determined in accordance

with Rev. Proc. 93-27, 1993 2 C.B. 343 and Rev. Proc. 2001-43, 2001 2 C.B. 191, with the effect that each such Class B Unit shall be treated as a profits interest

with an initial Capital Account of $0 and, accordingly, distributions to the Class B Members shall be limited to the extent necessary so that each Member’s Class B Units constitute a profits interest for U.S. federal income tax

purposes. All Members consent to the making of any election by the Company necessary to cause the Class B Units to be treated as profits interests and to take such actions and make such elections as may be required or permitted under such in

order for the Class B Units to be so treated.

(ii) The Company and each Class B Member will (i) treat all

Class B Units as outstanding for tax purposes, (ii) treat each Class B Member as a partner of the Company for tax purposes with respect to its Class B Units and (iii) file all tax returns and reports consistently with the

foregoing (except for non-U.S. returns or reports for which a different tax treatment is required by applicable non-U.S. law). Upon the issuance of Class B Units to

a Class B Member, and at the time that any portion of such Class B Member’s Class B Units vests pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or an applicable Employee-Related Agreement, or otherwise, neither the Company nor any of

its Members will deduct any amount (as wages, compensation or otherwise) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(e) Required Tax

Allocations. For income tax purposes, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall be allocated to each Member in the same manner as the Net Income or Net Loss that is allocated to such Member

pursuant to Section 6.2(a), Section 6.2(b) and Section 6.2(c) to which such tax items relate; provided that income, gain, loss, deduction and credit with respect to

property whose basis differs from its Gross Asset Value (including with respect to a revaluation event pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)) shall be allocated solely for income

tax purposes in accordance with the principles of Sections 704(b) and 704(c) of the Code using (i) with respect to the assets of the Company held as of the Effective Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), the method described in

Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(b) (the “traditional method”) and (ii) with respect to all other assets, any other method determined by the Board of Directors in its reasonable

discretion exercised in good faith and, for the avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 4.3(a)(v) of this Agreement.

(f) Withholding. Each Member hereby authorizes the Company to withhold and to pay any

taxes payable by the Company or any of its Affiliates as a result of such Member’s participation in the Company (e.g., backup withholding taxes, withholding under Section 1446 of the Code, and any payments under Section 6225 of the

Code). If and to the extent that the Company shall be required to withhold any such taxes, such Member shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have received a payment from the Company as of the time such withholding is required to be

paid, which payment shall be deemed to be a distribution to such Member. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide a Member notice of withholding at least five (5) days prior to such withholding and reasonably cooperate

with such Member to reduce or eliminate such withholding. The withholding referred to in this Section 6.2 shall be made at the maximum applicable statutory rate under applicable tax law unless the Board of Directors

receives documentation, reasonably satisfactory to the Board of Directors, to the effect that a lower rate is applicable, or that no withholding is applicable. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Member hereby agrees to indemnify and hold

harmless the Company from and against any tax liability (including any liability for taxes, penalties, additions to tax or interest) with respect to such withholding in respect of such Member (to the extent not otherwise satisfied under this

Section 6.2(f)) or any Entity Taxes attributable to such Member. In addition, as security for any withholding tax or other liability or obligation to which the Company may be subject as a result of any act or status of any

Member, or to which the Company may become subject with respect to the interest of any Member, the Company shall have (and each Member hereby grants to the Company), to the fullest extent permitted by law, a security interest in all assets of the

Company distributable to such Member to the extent of the amount of such withholding tax or other liability or obligation. The Company shall have a right of set off against such distributions of assets of the Company in the amount of such

withholding tax or other liability or obligation. The obligations of a Member set forth in this Section 6.2(f) shall survive the withdrawal of any Member from the Company or any transfer of a Member’s Interest.

Section 6.3. Distributions.

(a) Generally. Distributions in respect of the Units shall be made only to the Members who, according to the books and records of the

Company, are the holders of record of the Units in respect of which such distributions are made on the actual date of distribution. Neither the Company nor any Member shall incur any liability for making distributions in accordance with the

provisions of this Section 6.3, whether or not the Company or the Member has knowledge or notice of any transfer or purported transfer of ownership of Units in the Company that is not permitted under this Agreement. Subject

to Section 18-607 of the Delaware Act and Section 6.3(c), distributions shall be made to the Members at such times and in such amounts as determined by the Board of Directors

(subject to Section 4.3(a)(i)) but, unless the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors otherwise agree in writing, at least on a quarterly basis, to the extent the Company has Distributable Cash and is

permitted to make distributions under the Credit Agreement. The amount of any non-cash distribution shall be determined by the Board of Directors by reference to the fair market value of the assets being

distributed. If any Applicable Distribution consists of more than one kind of asset, the assets to be distributed in such Applicable Distribution shall be allocated as determined by the Board of Directors in its reasonable discretion;

provided, that each of the A-VL Investors and each of the Silgan Investors shall be treated the same in any such allocation; provided, further, that the aggregate value received by each

Member in such Applicable Distribution shall in all cases be determined in accordance with this Section 6.3.

(b) Non-Tax Distributions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions set

forth in this Section 6.3(b) are subject to Section 6.3(a), Section 6.3(c) and Section 6.3(d).

(i) Applicable Distributions. All distributions shall be made to the Members on a pro rata basis in proportion to the

number of Units that are Vested Units held by each such Member (a distribution made pursuant to this Section 6.3(b)(i), an “Applicable Distribution”);

provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, until the A-VL Investors have received an aggregate amount of Redirected Proceeds (as

defined below) (that would otherwise have been payable to the Silgan Investors) in an amount equal to the Priority Payment Amount, 100% of the Applicable Distributions that would otherwise be payable with respect to Vested Units held by the Silgan

Investors pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall instead be payable to the A-VL Investors in proportion to the number of Vested Units held by each such

A-VL Investor (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Tax Distributions, the “Redirected Proceeds”) (for the avoidance of doubt, it being acknowledged and agreed that the amount that

would be payable with respect to Vested Units held by the A-VL Investors pursuant to this Section 6.3 without giving effect to this proviso shall not count toward satisfaction of the

Priority Payment Amount); provided, that, subject to Section 6.3(b)(ii), unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, for purposes of this Section 6.3(b)(i),

each Class B Unit that is a Vested Unit held by a Class B Member shall only be entitled to participate in an Applicable Distribution to the extent that (A) the sum of (x) the aggregate amount received in respect of each

Class A Unit that was issued and outstanding on the date of issuance of such Class B Unit and remains outstanding on the date of such Applicable Distribution (the “Applicable Class A Unit”) in all

distributions pursuant to this Section 6.3(b)(i) and Section 6.3(c) from and after the date of issuance of such Class B Unit and prior to such Applicable Distribution plus (y) the amount

to be received by such Applicable Class A Unit in such Applicable Distribution exceeds (B) the Hurdle Amount for such Class B Unit (any such excess for such Class B Unit, its “In-the-Money Value”), and then only to the extent of the lesser of (1) the amount of the In-the-Money Value of

such Class B Unit and (2) such Class B Unit’s pro rata portion of the Applicable Distribution.

(ii)

Discretionary Distributions. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.3 to the contrary, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, authorize the Company to make a distribution to any Class B Unit

under Section 6.3(b)(i) without regard to the proviso therein (a “Discretionary Distribution”); provided, that, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion,

(A) the amount of any such Discretionary Distribution made in respect of such Class B Unit shall not exceed the amount that such Class B Member would be entitled to receive in respect of such Class B Unit if 100% of the

outstanding Units were sold in a hypothetical sale for a cash purchase price equal to the fair market value thereof as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith and the net proceeds thereof were distributed to the holders of Units in

accordance with Section 14.2 and (B) any such Discretionary Distribution made in respect of such Class B Unit shall be treated as an advance on, and shall reduce, dollar-for-dollar, any subsequent distributions to be made under Section 6.3(a), Section 6.3(b), Section 6.3(c) and

Section 14.2 in respect of such Class B Unit.

(iii) Unvested Units. Unless otherwise

determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, no Applicable Distribution shall be made in respect of any Unvested Units. The amount of any Applicable Distribution that would have otherwise been distributed in respect of such Unit that

is an Unvested Unit had such Unit been a Vested Unit at the time of such initial Applicable Distribution (for each such Unvested Unit, the “Unpaid Amount”) shall, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors in its sole

discretion, be distributed once such Unvested Units subsequently become Vested Units, to the Members in the same manner as an Applicable Distribution pursuant to Section 6.3(b)(i) and, if applicable,

Section 6.3(b)(ii). To the extent that any such Unvested Units subsequently become Vested Units and are outstanding at the time of any subsequent Applicable Distribution (any such outstanding Vested Units,

“Subsequently Vested Units”, and such subsequent Applicable Distribution, the “Subsequent Applicable Distribution”), then at the time of such Subsequent Applicable Distribution such Subsequently Vested Units

shall each receive a special priority distribution at such time (in addition to their respective pro rata share of such Subsequent Applicable Distribution remaining after such special priority distribution) equal to the Unpaid Amounts that have not

otherwise been previously paid in respect of such Subsequently Vested Units. Any distribution pursuant to this Section 6.3(b)(iii) shall be reduced by any and all Tax Distributions made with respect to such Units pursuant

to Section 6.3(c).

form of cash, and as may be permitted under any applicable loan, guarantee or other agreement under which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has borrowed money, as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole good faith discretion, the Board

of Directors shall cause the Company to make priority distributions (“Tax Distributions”) to each Member with respect to each taxable year equal to the excess of (A) (1) the net taxable income of the Company for such taxable

year allocated to such Member (determined by excluding any adjustments under Section 743 of the Code, including allocations under Section 704(c) of the Code, and excluding any “excess business interest expense” allocable to a

Member under Section 163(j) of the Code) taking into account net taxable losses from prior taxable years (for this purpose, treating the first taxable year of the Company as beginning on the date hereof) allocated to such Member to the extent

that such losses or deductions are permitted to be carried forward, are of a character that would permit such losses or deductions to be deducted by such Member against the current taxable income of the Company allocable to such Member and have not

previously been taken into account in determining Tax Distributions, multiplied by (2) the highest combined marginal U.S. federal, state and local income tax rate (including taxes imposed under Section 1411 of the Code) applicable at such

time to a corporation or a natural person residing in New York City, New York, or San Francisco, California, whichever is highest (determined after giving effect to the maximum allowable deduction for state and local income taxes for U.S. federal

income tax purposes, net of any phaseouts or limitations and taking into account the varying rates applicable to different types of income and any applicable limitations on deductions) over (B) the amount of distributions previously made to

such Member with respect to such taxable year under Section 6.3(b). The Board of Directors shall cause the Company to make Tax Distributions on an estimated basis quarterly at least five (5) days prior to the due date

for estimated corporate tax payments (or with such other frequency as determined by the Board in consultation with management) based on similar principles. Tax Distributions shall be made on a pro rata basis among all Members holding Class A

Units determined based on the largest Tax Distribution on a per Unit basis. If, with respect to a given taxable year or quarterly period, the Company is unable to fully fund all required Tax Distributions, any such Tax Distributions with respect to

such period shall be made pro rata among all Members in accordance with their respective entitlement to Tax Distributions, and any such unpaid Tax Distributions shall be promptly paid once the Company has available cash or as permitted under the

applicable debt documents (as applicable). The Board of Directors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Company’s (and its Subsidiaries’) debt documents permit the timely funding and making of Tax Distributions in

full. A Tax Distribution to a Member in respect of any Unit shall be treated as an advance on, and shall reduce, dollar-for-dollar, any subsequent distributions to be

made under Section 6.3(b) or Section 14.2 with respect to such Unit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to make any distribution pursuant to this

Section 6.3(c) with respect to any Unvested Units if the Company has not allocated any taxable income in the applicable taxable period to such Unvested Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Spin-Off or a Blocker Reorganization (but without duplication), the Company will make a Tax Distribution as soon as reasonably practicable prior to the Spin-Off or a Blocker

Reorganization in an amount equal to the good faith estimate of the accrued and unpaid income tax liabilities of all applicable A-VL Blocker Entities. For the avoidance of doubt, the Tax Distribution made

pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made on a pro rata basis among all Members holding Class A Units.

(d) Other

Matters. If all or a portion of a Member’s Units are transferred (including pursuant to a purchase by the Company), then subsequent distributions (i) to the transferor Member pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the portion of

such Member’s Units (if any) that are not so transferred shall be determined without regard to amounts previously distributed to such transferor Member in respect of the Units so transferred and (ii) to the transferee Member pursuant to

this Agreement shall be determined with regard to amounts previously distributed to the transferor Member in respect of the Units so transferred.

(e) Tax Treatment of the Priority Payment Amount Distribution. The Members intend for

the Priority Payment Amount Distribution to be treated as a return of capital for U.S. federal (and where applicable, state and local) income tax purposes and neither the Company nor any Member shall take any position that is inconsistent with such

treatment unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.

ARTICLE

VII

TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS

Section 7.1. General Restrictions on Transfers.

(a) No Unitholder may, directly or indirectly, whether by operation of law or otherwise, sell, exchange, assign, pledge, hypothecate, gift or

otherwise transfer, dispose of or encumber (all of which acts shall be deemed included in the term “Transfer” as used in this Agreement) any Securities or any legal, economic or beneficial interest in any Securities (in each case,

whether held in its own right or by its representatives), unless (i) such Transfer (unless solely consisting of an Encumbrance) is made on the books of the Company, the applicable direct or indirect parent or the applicable direct or indirect

Subsidiary or investment holding vehicle with respect to any of the foregoing, (ii) such Transfer is not in violation of this Article VII or any other agreement pursuant to which such Unit was granted, issued or sold and (iii) the

transferee of such Securities (if other than (A) the Company, any newly formed direct or indirect parent thereof or any direct or indirect Subsidiary or investment holding vehicle with respect to any of the foregoing or another Unitholder or

(B) a transferee of Units pursuant to an offer and sale registered under the Securities Act) agrees to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to Article XII hereof (and, as applicable, the Restrictive Covenant Agreement) and executes

such further documents as may be necessary or advisable, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, to make him, her or it a party hereto, including, to the extent such transferee is resident in a community property state, a Consent of Spouse, duly

authorized, executed and delivered by such transferee’s spouse. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (1) a transfer of limited partnership interests or other equity interests in any of the A-VL Investors, any private equity fund Affiliated with the A-VL Investors or any direct or indirect parent entity or investment holding vehicle with respect to any such A-VL Investor or such private equity fund (including the admission of any new limited partner or member of, or the purchase, sale, transfer or issuance of any interest in, any investment fund managed or Controlled

by A-VL Sponsor), and/or (2) a grant of any economic interest or other security in any of the Persons identified in the immediately preceding clause (1) by any of the Persons identified in the

immediately preceding clause (1) to any Service Provider or any director, officer, employee or agent of any of the Persons identified in the immediately preceding clause (1), in each case, as a bona fide compensation or incentive arrangement

and not to circumvent the restrictions of this Article VII, in each such case of clauses (1) and (2), shall not constitute a “Transfer” for purposes of this Agreement; provided, that clause

(1) shall apply to a transfer or disposition only if (x) immediately following such transfer, A-VL Sponsor continues to Control each A-VL Investor,

(y) such transfer does not result in any operating company or other portfolio company of A-VL Sponsor or its Affiliates, or any Company Competitor or Affiliate thereof, directly or indirectly holding any

interest in any Units, and (z) no transferee thereby obtains any direct participation or governance rights in, or recourse to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement,

(i) a transfer of equity or similar interests in any Person (other than a transfer described in, and satisfying the conditions of, the immediately preceding sentence) whose assets, directly or indirectly, consist primarily of Units or other

Securities shall be deemed an indirect Transfer of such Units or other Securities subject to this Article VII, (ii) a direct or indirect pledge of equity or similar interests in any A-

VL Investor or any direct or indirect parent entity or investment holding vehicle with respect to any A-VL Investor, in each case, that directly or

indirectly holds Securities, to one or more lenders to secure bona fide indebtedness (and any execution of such pledge), so long as the pledgor remains an Affiliate of A-VL Sponsor (and the exercise of any

remedies or foreclosure thereon, regardless of whether the pledgor remains an Affiliate of A-VL Sponsor following such exercise or foreclosure) shall not be deemed a Transfer for purposes of this Agreement,

(iii) a pledge of Securities by an A-VL Investor to one or more lenders to secure bona fide indebtedness (and any execution of such pledge) shall not be deemed a Transfer for purposes of this Agreement so

long as the pledgor remains an Affiliate of A-VL Sponsor; provided, that, for purposes of this clause (iii), in connection with the exercise of any remedies or foreclosure thereon, the lender shall

receive only the economic rights attributable to the pledged Securities and shall have no other rights as a Member, Unitholder or Investor under this Agreement, and all such other rights of the applicable A-VL

Investor with respect to the pledged Securities shall be immediately forfeited; provided, further, that, for purposes of this clause (iii), the applicable procedures and restrictions set forth in this Article VII shall be

complied with prior to the completion of any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies as if such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies were an anticipated Transfer, and any subsequent disposition by the lender of the pledged Securities or

any interest therein shall be subject to, and may be consummated only in accordance with, the applicable procedures and restrictions set forth in this Article VII, and (iv) the Silgan Investors shall be strictly prohibited from pledging

their respective Units or other Securities. Transfers of publicly traded securities of any direct or indirect parent entity of any Unitholder (including of Silgan Holdings), including pursuant to any merger, consolidation, tender or exchange offer,

business combination or similar transaction involving such parent entity, shall not constitute a Transfer of such Unitholder’s Units for purposes of this Agreement (it being understood that the foregoing shall not limit the operation of

Section 7.6(h)).

(b) Any purported Transfer of Securities or any interest in any Securities other than in

accordance with this Agreement shall be null and void.

otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement and, if applicable, the Employee-Related Agreement or any other agreement pursuant to which such Securities were issued, shall notify the Company in writing within ten (10) days of such Involuntary

Transfer. Such notice will be considered an irrevocable offer to the Company (or any assignee(s) of the Company as designated by the Company) to purchase all of the Securities subject to the Involuntary Transfer (the “Involuntarily

Transferred Securities”) for a cash purchase price equal to the FMV per Unit of the Involuntarily Transferred Securities at the time of such Transfer, which offer can be accepted at any time prior to one year following the receipt of such

notice. On the closing of the purchase of Involuntarily Transferred Securities pursuant to this Section 7.1(c), the Company (or any assignee(s) of the Company as designated by the Company) will deliver cash equal to the

purchase price of the Involuntarily Transferred Securities that are being purchased (the “Repurchased Securities”) and the Repurchased Securities will be assigned, transferred and delivered to the Company (or any assignee(s) of

the Company as designated by the Company) free and clear of all Encumbrances.

(d) The Company shall not issue any Units, or any other

Securities exercisable for, or convertible or exchangeable for Units, upon original issue or reissue or otherwise dispose of any Unit Equivalents (other than Units or such Securities registered under the Securities Act) unless the recipient or

transferee of such Units or Securities (if other than a Unitholder) shall agree to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to Article XII hereof and executes such further documents as may be necessary or advisable, in the reasonable

judgment of the Company, to make him, her or it a party hereto or thereto.

(e) Each Unitholder acknowledges that the Restricted

Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

Each Unitholder agrees that it will not transfer any Restricted Securities at any time if such action would constitute a violation of any securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction or a

breach of the conditions to any exemption from registration of Restricted Securities under any such laws or a breach of any undertaking or agreement of such Unitholder entered into pursuant to such laws or in connection with obtaining an exemption

thereunder. Each Unitholder agrees that any Restricted Securities to be held by it, him or her shall bear the restrictive legend set forth in Section 11.5 if such Restricted Securities are represented by certificates.

(f) No Unitholder shall grant any proxy or enter into or agree to be bound by any voting trust with respect to any Securities or enter into

any agreements or arrangements of any kind with any Person with respect to any Securities inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, including agreements or arrangements with respect to the acquisition, disposition or voting (if applicable)

of any Securities, nor shall any Unitholder act, for any reason, as a member of a group or in concert with any other Persons in connection with the acquisition, disposition or voting (if applicable) of any Securities in any manner which is

inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein (for the avoidance of

doubt, other than Section 7.5), no Transfer of Securities by a Unitholder shall be permitted unless such Transfer would not:

(i) violate the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue sky” laws;

(ii) cause the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to lose its status as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes or

cause the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended;

(iii) otherwise cause the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to violate any applicable law;

(iv) cause all or any portion of the assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to constitute “plan assets”

of any Unitholder under ERISA or the Code or to be subject to the provisions of ERISA or the Code to substantially the same extent as if owned directly by any Unitholder;

(v) create a material risk the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will be treated as a “publicly traded

partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder;

(vi)

require any of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors or any of their respective Affiliates to register as an investment adviser under the United States Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

(vii) prior to the consummation of an Initial Public Offering, result in the Company, any newly formed direct or indirect

parent thereof or any direct or indirect Subsidiary or investment holding vehicle with respect to any of the foregoing being required to file reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act or being required to

Section 7.2. Certain Permitted Transfers.

(a) Silgan Investors. Each Silgan Investor may Transfer any or all of its Securities without complying with any other provision of this

Article VII, other than Section 7.1, to any of its Permitted Transferees; provided, that such Permitted Transferee shall have agreed with the Company, in a written instrument reasonably satisfactory to the

Company, that it will immediately convey all Securities and all rights with respect thereto (including those arising hereunder) back to the transferring Unitholder or to another Permitted Transferee of the transferring Unitholder if it ceases to be

a Permitted Transferee of the transferring Unitholder (such Transfer back to the Transferring Unitholder or another Permitted Transferee, an “Unwind Transfer”).

or all of its Securities without complying with any other provision of this Article VII, other than Section 7.1, as follows: (i) to any of its Permitted Transferees; provided, that such Permitted

that, subject to the last sentence of this Section 7.2(c), the A-VL Investors, collectively, may not cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to provide such information and cooperation

contemplated in this Section 7.2(c) in connection with more than one Transfer per year pursuant to Section 7.2(b). With respect to any additional Transfers by the

Permitted Transferee thereof without complying with the provisions of this Article VII, other than Section 7.1; provided, that such Permitted Transferee shall have agreed with the Company, in a written

instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to an Unwind Transfer; provided, further, that without the prior written consent of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors, in no event

shall the aggregate number of members comprising any Employee Investor Group at any time exceed three (3) at such time.

the A-VL Investors’ Initial Stake, the Board or the Silgan Investors (the “Dragging Party”) wishes to give effect to a Sale Transaction (a “Drag Along Sale”), each Non-Silgan Unitholder (the “Dragged Unitholders”) shall be required to participate in such Drag Along Sale pursuant to this Section 7.4 if the Dragging Party gives a

written notice (a “Drag Along Notice”) (together with copies of then-current drafts of the material transaction documents, if any, to which such Dragged Unitholder is contemplated to be a party relating to the proposed Transfer)

to each Dragged Unitholder to the mailing address and/or email address set forth in the Company’s and/or its Subsidiaries’ books and records at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the consummation of such Drag Along Sale

the same extent as the Silgan Investors and (D) the execution and delivery of any merger, asset purchase, security purchase, recapitalization or other sale agreement or any indemnification or voting agreement, as applicable, in each case, to

the same extent as the Silgan Investors); and

(b) Participation.

(i) Each Dragged Unitholder shall vote in favor of or consent to (to the extent such Unit Equivalents have voting rights),

raise no objections against and not impede or delay such Drag Along Sale, and shall take all reasonable actions set forth in the Drag Along Notice or otherwise reasonably requested of such Dragged Unitholder by the Dragging Party or the Company in

writing, including, subject to the Transfer Terms and Conditions, executing and delivering all documents contemplated by the Drag Along Notice to which such Dragged Unitholder is a party, including the execution and delivery of any merger, asset

instruments required to be delivered by it pursuant to this Section 7.4 at or prior to the closing of a Drag Along Sale, then (i) if (x) the Dragging Party and the Silgan Investors have complied in all material

respects with their respective obligations in connection with such Drag Along Sale and (y) the consideration payable to such Dragged Unitholder in such Drag Along Sale has been deposited by or on behalf of such transferee with the Company (or a

paying agent designated by the Dragging Party) for the benefit of such Dragged Unitholder without any limitation on the ability of such Dragged Unitholder to receive such consideration (other than the delivery of a customary letter of transmittal

and reasonably requested tax identification materials), the Company shall cause the books and records of the Company to reflect the Transfer of such Dragged Unitholder’s Unit Equivalents to the applicable transferee, and such Unit Equivalents

shall be deemed so Transferred, effective upon such deposit, whereupon such Dragged Unitholder shall have no further rights in respect of such Unit Equivalents other than the right to receive such consideration (without interest), and

(ii) solely in order to secure the performance of the obligations of any such Dragged Unitholder that is a Non-Institutional Unitholder under this Section 7.4, such Non-Institutional Unitholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally appoints the Company as its attorney-in-fact and proxy (with full

(d) Board and A-VL Investor Information. In the event the Silgan Investors exercise their

rights under this Section 7.4 in connection with a Drag Along Sale, the Silgan Investors shall keep the Board (and to the extent the A-VL Investors are no longer entitled to designate

the A-VL Designated Directors under this Agreement, the A-VL Investors) reasonably apprised of material developments in, and provide material documentation in connection

with, the negotiation and consummation of the Drag Along Sale.

(e) Termination. This Section 7.4 shall

terminate upon the consummation of an Initial Public Offering or upon the consummation of a Sale Transaction.

Section 7.5. Spin-Off.

(a) The Silgan Investors have the right (but not an obligation), at any time and in their

sole discretion, to effect a Spin-Off; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Spin-Off may be effected prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Date without the prior written consent of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors. Promptly following the Silgan

Investors’ determination to initiate a Spin-Off pursuant to the previous sentence (which shall expressly exclude the Silgan Investors or the Company conducting any due diligence, preparatory or other

exploratory efforts, including engaging any third-party advisors, in connection with Silgan Investors’ consideration of whether to effect a Spin-Off), the Silgan Investors shall provide written notice of

such decision to the Company and the A-VL Investors (the “Silgan Spin-Off Notice”) which shall include a statement that specifies whether such Spin-Off is a MetalCo Spin or a GrowthCo Spin; provided, that the delivery of a Silgan Spin-Off Notice shall not bind the Silgan Investors, its Affiliates or the

Company to consummate any Spin-Off. Prior to any Spin-Off, the Silgan Investors will on a regular basis monitor changes in ownership of Silgan Holdings for purposes of

Section 355(e) of the Code relevant to a Spin-Off, and a Spin-Off shall only be undertaken if the Spin-Off is intended to be

tax-free under Section 355(e) of the Code (assuming the A-VL Investors exchange at the closing of a Spin-Off seventy-five

percent (75.0%) of the A-VL Investors’ Initial Stake for interests in Public MetalCo) (the “75% Spin-Off Condition”). The A-VL Investors may waive the

75% Spin-Off Condition, in whole or in part, in writing. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the A-VL Investors,

a “Spin-Off” shall mean (1) an UP-C Reorganization and (2), at the option of the Silgan Investors, either a MetalCo Spin or a GrowthCo Spin. In

connection with any Spin-Off, Public MetalCo and Public GrowthCo shall enter into a customary tax matters agreement consistent with the terms of Exhibit E and the

A-VL Investors shall have governance rights with respect to Public MetalCo consistent with the terms of Exhibit G, in each case, unless the Silgan Investors and the

A-VL Investors agree otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the issuance of non-publicly traded,

non-economic, vote only shares of Public MetalCo, the right to exchange Units for publicly traded shares of Public MetalCo, and the terms and conditions of any Blocker Reorganization shall be subject to timing

and amount limitations related to maintaining the tax-free treatment of a Spin-Off under Section 355 of the Code, in each case, as determined jointly and in good

faith by the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors (consistent with Section 7.5(g) of this Agreement). Absent an agreement between Public MetalCo and

A-VL Sponsor to the contrary, after the completion of a Spin-Off the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors agree to use

reasonable best efforts to effect the applicable transactions (or transactions substantially similar to those) described in Exhibit J. For the avoidance of doubt, following the second anniversary of the consummation of the Spin-Off, with reasonable notice to the Company, and subject to customary limitations with respect to maintaining an “umbrella-partnership C corporation” structure, the

A-VL Investors will have the right (but not the obligation) to exchange their Units in the Company (or interests in any A-VL Blocker Entity pursuant to

Section 7.7) with the Company for cash, based on the then-applicable FMV per Unit, or, at Public MetalCo’s election, for Public MetalCo stock (or cash, including cash raised by Public MetalCo in a public offering of

Public MetalCo stock).

(b) An “UP-C Reorganization” means (i) admitting

an IPO Corporation as a member of the Company (if applicable); (ii) effecting a non-economic recapitalization of the Company (and the IPO Corporation, if applicable) consistent with a customary

“umbrella-partnership C corporation” transaction structure to implement (A) a one-to-one Company Unit to IPO Corporation share ratio and (B) a

structure suitable, as reasonably determined by the Silgan Investors, for the registration with the SEC and the distribution of the interests of the Company (or the IPO Corporation, if applicable), as a publicly traded company, to the shareholders

of Silgan Holdings; (iii) issuing a number of non-publicly traded non-economic vote only shares of the IPO Corporation to the

A-VL Investors equal to the number of Units the A-VL Investors hold after the recapitalization described in clause (ii) of this

Section 7.5(b); (iv) providing existing members of the Company with the right to exchange Units (together with a corresponding number of non-publicly traded, non-economic, vote only shares of the IPO Corporation (with such vote only shares automatically surrendered and canceled upon any such exchange)) for publicly traded shares of the IPO Corporation; (v) causing

the IPO Corporation to enter into a customary “tax receivable agreement” with the A-VL Investors (or an Affiliate thereof) consistent with the terms of Exhibit F; and (vi) taking

such other steps as the A-VL Investors and the Silgan Investors mutually agree in good faith to be necessary or advisable to implement an “umbrella-partnership C corporation” transaction structure

for an Initial Public Offering (such agreement of the A-VL Investors not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For the avoidance of doubt, the Silgan Investors may effect an UP-C Reorganization consisting of the steps described in clauses (i) through (v) (and steps customarily taken to implement the foregoing) without the agreement of the

A-VL Investors, and clause (vi) shall not be construed to condition any such step on such agreement.

a transaction that is intended to be tax-free and governed by Section 355 of the Code to Silgan Holdings and its public shareholders and (ii) unless the A-VL

Investors elect not to undertake a Blocker Reorganization pursuant to Section 7.5(g), a Blocker Reorganization, such that, following such distribution and Blocker Reorganization, the

A-VL Blocked Feeder and the shareholders of Silgan Holdings are the holders of the equity interests in the resulting IPO Corporation.

(d) A “GrowthCo Spin” means (a)(i) the formation of a Delaware

corporation and direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Silgan Holdings (“GrowthCo”), (ii) a contribution of all of the assets and liabilities of Silgan Holdings (other than its equity interests of GrowthCo, the Units and any equity

interests of subsidiaries of Silgan Holdings whose sole asset is a direct or indirect interest in the Units) to GrowthCo, (iii) a distribution by Silgan Holdings of equity interests of GrowthCo to the public shareholders of Silgan Holdings in a

transaction that is intended to be tax-free under Section 355 of the Code to Silgan Holdings and its public shareholders and (b) unless the A-VL Investors

elect not to undertake a Blocker Reorganization pursuant to Section 7.5(g), any Blocker Mergers, such that, following such distribution and any Blocker Mergers, the A-VL Blocked

Feeder and the shareholders of Silgan Holdings are the holders of the equity interests in the resulting IPO Corporation. In the event that the Silgan Investors elect to pursue the GrowthCo Spin, as a condition for the closing of the GrowthCo Spin,

Silgan Holdings will, to the extent required by applicable law or the rules of the applicable securities exchange, obtain the approval of its public shareholders for the issuance of publicly traded shares of Public MetalCo in connection with

(1) any Blocker Merger (including if any such Blocker Merger will occur after the closing of the Spin-Off as a result of limitations imposed by Section 355(e) of the Code); (2) the issuance of non-publicly traded, non-economic, vote only shares of Public MetalCo to the A-VL Investors; and (3) the right of the A-VL Investors to exchange Units of the Company (and non-publicly traded, non-economic, vote only shares of Public MetalCo) for

publicly traded shares of Public MetalCo (it being understood and agreed that any such issuance of non-publicly traded, non-economic, vote only shares of Public MetalCo

and exchange of Units for publicly traded shares of Public MetalCo will be subject to the 75% Spin-Off Condition); provided, that if any such approval is so required and has not been obtained, the

Silgan Investors shall not consummate the GrowthCo Spin without the prior written consent of the A-VL Investors.

(e) In the event a Spin-Off is consummated, and subject to timing and amount limitations related to

maintaining the tax-free treatment of a Spin-Off under Section 355 of the Code, interests in the Company held by the A-VL

Investors’ Units (together with a corresponding number of non-publicly traded, non-economic, vote only shares of the IPO Corporation) shall be exchangeable for

publicly traded shares of Public MetalCo on a one-for-one basis (with such vote only shares automatically surrendered and cancelled upon any such exchange). For the

avoidance of doubt, following the second anniversary of the consummation of the Spin-Off, with reasonable notice to the Company, and subject to customary limitations with respect to maintaining an

“umbrella-partnership C corporation” structure, the A-VL Investors will have the right (but not the obligation) to exchange their Units in the Company (or interests in any A-VL Blocker Entity pursuant to Section 7.7) with the Company for cash, based on the then-applicable FMV per Unit, or, at Public MetalCo’s election, for Public MetalCo stock (or cash,

including cash raised by Public MetalCo in a public offering of Public MetalCo stock).

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, any Spin-Off shall be in compliance with this Section 7.5, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VII, no other provision of this Article VII (including

Section 7.1(a)(iii), Section 7.1(d) and Section 7.1(f)) shall restrict, delay or impose any condition (including any joinder requirement) on any Transfer, issuance,

exchange, recapitalization or distribution of Securities effected in connection with a Spin-Off in accordance with this Section 7.5 or pursuant to

Section 7.5(e).

(g) The A-VL Investors shall, and shall cause their

Affiliates (including the A-VL Blocker Entities and the A-VL Blocked Feeder) to, reasonably cooperate with the Silgan Investors, Silgan Holdings and the Company in

connection with any Spin-Off, including by executing and delivering such agreements, consents and other documents, providing such information (including information regarding the

A-VL Blocker Entities and the A-VL Blocked Feeder required for any registration statement or other filing), and taking such other actions, in each case, as the Silgan

Investors may reasonably request in good faith to implement the transactions described in this Section 7.5 and Section 7.7, at the Company’s cost and expense in accordance with

Section 7.5(i). The A-VL Investors shall have no consent or approval right with

respect to a Spin-Off, subject to the 75% Spin-Off Condition set forth in Section 7.5(a).

The A-VL Investors may elect not to undertake a Blocker Reorganization by providing written notice to the Company within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of the Silgan Spin-Off Notice. Nothing in this Section 7.5(g) shall (x) require the A-VL Investors to incur any out-of-pocket cost or expense not reimbursed by the Company, (y) reduce the amount or change the form of consideration or economic rights the A-VL Investors are

entitled to receive under this Agreement or (z) require the A-VL Investors to consent to any amendment of this Agreement that is disproportionately adverse to the

A-VL Investors.

(h) This Section 7.5 (other than

Section 7.5(g) and Section 7.5(i), which shall survive) shall terminate upon the consummation of an Initial Public Offering or upon the consummation of a Sale Transaction.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall bear all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket third party legal, accounting, advisory and other expenses directly related to a Spin-Off, in each case reasonably required to effectuate a Spin-Off (but not operational related expenses such as branding, re-branding and marketing expenses related to GrowthCo) in connection with a

Spin-Off, regardless of whether it is structured as a spin-off of the Company or of GrowthCo, including without limitation, the formation of GrowthCo and the

distribution of its equity to the shareholders of Silgan Holdings.

(j)

(i) A-VL Sponsor and each A-VL Investor shall

not, and shall ensure that none of their Affiliates, acquire, within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code, any stock or other equity securities of Silgan Holdings prior to the Spin-Off (other than,

for the avoidance of doubt, any rights under this Agreement); and

(ii) Each Silgan Investor, A-VL Sponsor and each A-VL Investor (and their respective Affiliates) shall cooperate with respect to any Sensitive Transactions (other than any Sensitive Transaction

permitted pursuant to this Agreement) and any other actions or discussions that could reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on the tax-free treatment of the

Spin-Off (this clause (ii), the “Pre-Spin-Off Investor Restrictions”). Each Silgan Investor, A-VL Sponsor and each A-VL Investor acknowledges and agrees that such cooperation should be undertaken in a manner that preserves the

tax-free treatment of the Spin-Off under Section 355 of the Code. In the event a Spin-Off is not initiated or consummated

within a reasonable period of time after a Spin-Off Announcement, the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors will reasonably cooperate and consult with one another in

good faith regarding the termination of the Pre-Spin-Off Investor Restrictions (consistent with Section 7.5(g)).

(k) In the event the 75% Spin-Off Condition is not satisfied as reasonably determined in good faith by

the Silgan Investors, the Silgan Investors shall have the right (but not the obligation) by written notice (a “Pre-Spin Purchase Notice”) to the Company and the A-VL Investors, at the Silgan Investor’s option, to either (i) only if a purchase by the Silgan Investor of less than 5% of the Class A Voting Units outstanding after the issuance would result

in the 75% Spin-Off Condition being satisfied, purchase the minimum amount of additional Units from the Company that would result in the 75% Spin-Off Condition being

satisfied immediately prior to the Spin-Off (the “Top-Up Units”) in exchange for a purchase price per Unit equal to the greater of (x) FMV per

Unit or (y) the Conditional Liquidity Right Purchase Price (as if a Conditional Liquidity Notice was deemed delivered on the date of the Pre-Spin Purchase Notice), paid in cash or (ii) offer to

purchase, whether directly or through any Affiliate of the Silgan Investors or through the Company, from the A-VL Investors, on an aggregate basis, the minimum amount of Units held by such A-VL Investors that would result in the 75% Spin-Off Condition being

satisfied immediately prior to the Spin-Off, in exchange for a purchase price in cash to be mutually agreed by the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors in good faith and on such other terms mutually agreed by such parties in good faith, it being understood and agreed that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the A-VL Investors shall not have any obligation to agree to any such transaction pursuant to this clause (ii). The consummation of any transaction pursuant to the foregoing sentence (a “Pre-Spin Purchase”) shall take place prior to the Spin-Off and, in the case of a transaction pursuant to clause (i) of the foregoing sentence, no more than

three (3) days prior to the Spin-Off.

Section 7.6.

A-VL Investors Spin-Off Request; Silgan Investors Call Right.

(a) On or prior to the date that is forty-two (42) months after the Effective Date and each

annual anniversary of such date thereafter, the A-VL Investors shall have the right to, but shall not be obligated to, deliver to the Silgan Investors a written notice (a “Spin-Off Request”) requesting that the Silgan Investors initiate a Spin-Off and indicating that if the Silgan Investors do not initiate a Spin-Off then the A-VL Investors intend to exercise the Conditional Liquidity Right during the next Conditional Liquidity Window, which notice shall specify the number of

Units with respect to which the A-VL Investors intend to exercise the Conditional Liquidity Right, being at least twenty percent (20%) and up to thirty-three and a third percent (331⁄3%) of the A-VL Investors’ Initial Stake (together with any additional Units acquired after the Effective Date);

provided, that if the A-VL Investors ever hold less than twenty percent (20%) of the A-VL Investors’ Initial Stake, the

A-VL Investors shall be permitted to sell pursuant to the Conditional Liquidity Right all of such actual holdings percentage of the A-VL Investors’ Initial Stake,

together with any additional Units acquired after the Effective Date. A Spin-Off Request shall not constitute an exercise of the Conditional Liquidity Right by the A-VL

Investors nor an obligation on the part of the A-VL Investors to exercise the Conditional Liquidity Right, but if the A-VL Investors do not deliver a timely Spin-Off Request, the A-VL Investors may not exercise the Conditional Liquidity Right during the next Conditional Liquidity Window. If the

A-VL Investors exercise the Conditional Liquidity Right during the next Conditional Liquidity Window, such exercise shall be for the number of Units specified in a

Spin-Off Request. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall obligate the Silgan Investors to initiate a Spin-Off in response to a

Spin-Off Request or limit the Silgan Investors’ right to initiate the Spin-Off at any time in accordance with Section 7.5.

(b) Subject to Section 7.5 and this Section 7.6, including with respect to the Silgan

Investors’ rights with respect to a Spin-Off, prior to the consummation of a Spin-Off and following the four (4) year anniversary of the Effective Date, the A-VL Investors shall have the right, but not the obligation, in their sole discretion (the “Conditional Liquidity Right”), exercisable during the 30-day

period (the “Conditional Liquidity Window”) following the four (4) year anniversary of the Effective Date and each annual anniversary thereafter, to require the Silgan Investors to purchase (the “Conditional

Liquidity Transaction”) for cash the number of Units specified in the corresponding Spin-Off Request; provided, that the Conditional Liquidity Right shall expire with respect to such

anniversary of the Effective Date if not exercised at the end of such 30-day period. The A-VL Investors shall exercise their Conditional Liquidity Right by providing a

written notice to the Silgan Investors (the “Conditional Liquidity Notice”). Subject to Section 7.5 and this Section 7.6, including with respect to the Silgan Investors’

rights with respect to a Spin-Off, within 30 days of receipt of a Conditional Liquidity Notice, the Silgan Investors must by written notice (the “Conditional Liquidity Response Notice”) to

the A-VL Investors specify, in their sole discretion, the amount of Units of the A-VL Investors which the Silgan Investors agree to purchase, which amount must be not

less than the amount specified in the corresponding Spin-Off Request and not more than 150% of the amount specified in the corresponding Spin-Off Request (the

“Election”).

(c) If (a) the A-VL Investors timely deliver a Spin-Off Request and then deliver a Conditional Liquidity Notice during the next Conditional Liquidity Window and (b) within ninety (90) days following the delivery of the Conditional Liquidity Notice

Silgan Holdings makes a public announcement that it is evaluating or pursuing a Spin-Off transaction (a “Spin-Off Announcement”), then the A-VL Investors’ exercise of the Conditional Liquidity Right shall be suspended until a date that is six (6) months following the date of the Conditional Liquidity Notice (the “Spin-Off Period”) for the Silgan Investors to consummate a Spin-Off. If a Spin-Off is consummated prior to the expiration of

the Spin-Off Period, the Silgan Investors’ obligation to complete such Conditional Liquidity Transaction shall automatically terminate without any further action of any party with respect to the Units

subject to such Conditional Liquidity Notice. If a Spin-Off is not consummated prior to the expiration of a Spin-Off Period, the Silgan Investors shall be obligated to

complete the Conditional Liquidity Transaction and purchase the Units specified in the Election for cash, such price as determined by Section 7.6(g), within five (5) Business Days following the expiration of a Spin-Off Period (or a later date as provided for below in connection with mandatory regulatory review or approval requirements). If the Silgan Investors do not make a timely

Spin-Off Announcement, the Silgan Investors shall be obligated to complete the Conditional Liquidity Transaction and purchase the Units specified in the Election for cash, such price as determined by

Section 7.6(g), within five (5) Business Days following the expiration of the ninety (90) day period following the delivery of the Conditional Liquidity Notice (or a later date as provided for below in connection

with mandatory regulatory review or approval requirements).

(d) If (i) the A-VL Investors

deliver a Spin-Off Request, (ii) following which the Silgan Investors initiate a Spin-Off, (iii) the A-VL Investors do

not deliver a Conditional Liquidity Notice during the next Conditional Liquidity Window, and (iv) subsequently the Silgan Investors, in their sole discretion, determine not to consummate a Spin-Off, then

the A-VL Investors shall promptly reimburse the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket third party costs and

expenses incurred in connection with a Spin-Off process. For the avoidance of doubt, the Silgan Investors’ determination not to consummate a Spin-Off shall not

deprive the Silgan Investors of the right to initiate a Spin-Off at any time thereafter in accordance with Section 7.5.

(e) Prior to the consummation of a Spin-Off, the Silgan Investors shall have the right, but not the

obligation, in their sole discretion (the “Call Right”), exercisable at any time following the ten (10) year anniversary of the Effective Date or, if the A-VL Investors no longer

beneficially own at least 25% of the A-VL Investors’ Initial Stake, at any time, to purchase for cash, such price as determined by Section 7.6(g), one hundred percent (100%) of

the Units then held by the A-VL Investors. The Silgan Investors shall exercise their Call Right by providing a written notice to the A-VL Investors (the “Silgan

Call Notice”).

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the Conditional Liquidity Right and Call Right shall automatically terminate

without any further action of any party upon the consummation (but for the avoidance of doubt, not upon the commencement) of a Spin-Off.

(g) The cash purchase price per Unit under the Conditional Liquidity Right or Call Right, as applicable (the “Conditional Liquidity

Right Purchase Price”), shall be based on an implied equity value equal to the enterprise value of the Company and its Subsidiaries, derived by applying an EBITDA multiple of 8.25x to the trailing twelve (12) months of EBITDA as of

the last day of the most recently completed fiscal quarter preceding the date of the Conditional Liquidity Notice or Silgan Call Notice, as applicable, less Net Debt (the “Spin-Off Implied Equity

Value”). The Spin-Off Implied Equity Value shall be treated as the cash purchase price for 100% of the outstanding Units in a hypothetical sale and the net proceeds shall be distributed to the

holders of Units in accordance with Section 6.3 hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) outstanding Units for purposes of the Spin-Off Implied Equity Value allocation will

include all Class B Units (or other equity or equity-based awards issued under the Equity Incentive Plan) that have an In-the-Money-Value at such time as if they

were vested as of the date of delivery of the Conditional Liquidity Notice or Silgan Call Notice and (ii) the Conditional Liquidity Right Purchase Price shall be the amount per Unit that the A-VL

Investors would receive in such hypothetical sale and distribution.

(h) Upon the consummation of (x) a Sale Transaction or (y) a Sale Transaction with

respect to Silgan Holdings (with the definition of “Sale Transaction” being applied mutatis mutandis with respect to the Silgan Investors and their Securities and without regard to the last sentence of such definition) (a

“Silgan Holdings Change of Control”), in each case, following which the A-VL Investors continue to hold any Units (it being understood that the Silgan Investors or the Company, as

applicable, must provide the A-VL Investors at least forty-five (45) days’ prior written notice of the closing date of such Sale Transaction), the terms of the Conditional Liquidity Right and the

Call Right (each as described above) must be expressly assumed by the party which acquires the Silgan Investors or the Company, as applicable; provided, that, the Silgan Stock Consideration Option (as defined below) will not apply.

(i) Subject to obtaining any applicable regulatory approvals or clearances and any suspension of the Conditional Liquidity Right set forth in

Section 7.6(c), the Silgan Investors shall purchase the Units they elect to purchase pursuant to a Conditional Liquidity Response Notice or Silgan Call Notice, as applicable, for cash within ninety (90) days of

delivery of the Conditional Liquidity Notice or Silgan Call Notice, as applicable (or, if any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act or any other mandatory regulatory review or approval requirement to the

extent applicable to such purchase has not expired or been obtained prior to the expiration of such ninety (90) day period, within five (5) Business Days after the expiration or termination of all such waiting periods and the receipt of

all such mandatory regulatory approvals.) Each of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or

cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate such purchase at the earliest reasonably practicable date; provided, that notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Silgan Investors or the A-VL Investors be obligated to, and no such party shall be required to cause any of its Affiliates to, in each case in

connection with obtaining any approval, consent, clearance or termination of any waiting period from any governmental entity under any applicable Law with respect to such purchase, (x) sell, license, assign, transfer, divest, hold separate or

otherwise dispose of, or terminate, any assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines, businesses, or interests therein of the party or its Affiliates, (y) agree to any other restriction on, or impose any condition with respect to, the

ownership, operation, or conduct of the business of the party or its Affiliates, including any conduct, behavioral, or “firewall” remedy, or (z) litigate, defend, contest, or otherwise oppose (or agree to litigate, defend, contest,

or otherwise oppose) any administrative or judicial action or proceeding, including any proceeding initiated by a governmental entity seeking to enjoin, prevent, restrain or otherwise prohibit consummation of such purchase.

(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements of this Section 7.6 to make the purchase for cash, the Silgan

Investors will have the option, at their discretion, to fulfill all or any portion of any payment obligation with respect to a Conditional Liquidity Right or Call Right, as applicable, by issuing to the A-VL

Investors (or their Affiliated designee) an amount of Silgan Holdings common stock valued at the volume-weighted average price of Silgan Holdings’ common stock for the thirty (30) consecutive trading days, as published by the New York

Stock Exchange or any securities exchange that Silgan Holdings is then listed on, immediately prior to the delivery by the A-VL Investors of the Conditional Liquidity Notice or Silgan Call Notice, as

applicable, with a 2.0% discount applied to the value of any such stock issued in connection with such Conditional Liquidity Notice or Silgan Call Notice in excess of 3% of then-outstanding Silgan Investors’ common stock (the “Silgan

Stock Consideration Option”); provided, that in no event shall the Silgan Investors elect to issue a number of shares of Silgan Holdings’ common stock exceeding 4.9% of then-outstanding Silgan Holdings’ common stock;

provided, further, that, such 4.9% maximum shall not impact the Silgan Investors’ obligation to fulfill (by paying cash) any portion of any Conditional Liquidity Right or Call Right.

Section 7.7. A-VL Blocker Entities.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any direct or indirect partners, members or other investors of any of the A-VL Investors indirectly hold any portion of their respective interests in the Company or its Subsidiaries (including Units) through a structure involving one or more A-VL

Blocker Entities, then, any Transfer by the A-VL Investors (including in connection with a Transfer pursuant to Section 7.4 or Section 7.6 or other

transactions), Sale Transaction, Spin-Off (pursuant to Section 7.7(b)) or other disposition by the A-VL Investors of their Units, at the

request of any A-VL Investor, may be structured in a manner that ensures each of the following are satisfied: (i) the A-VL Blocker Shares of the relevant A-VL Blocker Entities shall be Transferred in lieu of a Transfer of the Units

directly or indirectly held by the A-VL Investors and (ii) the price and form of consideration payable for such

A-VL Blocker Shares is the same as the price and form of consideration that would have been payable had the A-VL Investors sold the relevant Units directly in such

transaction; provided, that (A) the aggregate consideration payable for such A-VL Blocker Shares shall be (x) reduced by the sum of any unpaid Taxes of such

A-VL Blocker Entity due and payable or attributable to any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the closing of such Transfer (other than deferred Tax liabilities attributable to unrealized

appreciation in the Units) and any liabilities of such A-VL Blocker Entity unrelated to its direct or indirect ownership of Units and (y) increased by the amount of any cash assets or cash equivalents of

such A-VL Blocker Entity, and (B) clause (ii) shall not apply to any consideration payable under any tax receivable agreement. In any Transfer of Units in accordance with this Agreement (including in

connection with a Transfer pursuant to Section 7.4 or Section 7.6 or other transactions), the holders of A-VL Blocker Shares may transfer or exchange such A-VL Blocker Shares (including by way of a merger, consolidation or reorganization of the relevant A-VL Blocker Entities that directly or indirectly own Units or any other

transaction structure that is agreed upon by the A-VL Investors and the proposed transferee) on the same basis as if the A-VL Investors had transferred or exchanged such

Units directly, subject in each case to this Section 7.7. For the avoidance of doubt, the A-VL Investors’ right under this Section 7.7(a) shall survive

any Spin-Off or Initial Public Offering.

(b) If (1) the Silgan Investors initiate a Spin-Off, (2) provide a Silgan Spin-Off Notice and (3) any direct or indirect partners, members or other investors of any of the

A-VL Investors indirectly hold any portion of their respective interests in the Company or its Subsidiaries (including Units) through a structure involving one or more

A-VL Blocker Entities, then each such A-VL Blocker Entity will, subject to the A-VL Investors’ right to elect not to

undertake a Blocker Reorganization pursuant to Section 7.5(g), (a) be contributed, merged or transferred to or into the IPO Corporation in a transaction that is intended to qualify as

non-taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes (except to the extent of cash in lieu of fractional shares received by a direct or indirect equity holder of such A-VL

Blocker Entity) (the transaction described in clause (a), a “Blocker Merger”), (b) act as the IPO Corporation, (c) become a subsidiary of the IPO Corporation or (d) otherwise participate in a manner so that the

transaction is non-taxable for U.S. federal income tax purposes (except to the extent of cash in lieu of fractional shares received by a direct or indirect equity holder of such

A-VL Blocker Entity) to the A-VL Blocked Feeder and any such A-VL Blocker Entity is not subject to a level of corporate tax for

U.S. federal income tax purposes on the Spin-Off, in each case, pursuant to clause (vi) of the definition of “UP-C Reorganization” (any of clauses

(a) through (d), a “Blocker Reorganization”); provided, that any Blocker Reorganization shall be subject to timing and amount limitations related to maintaining the tax-free

treatment of a Spin-Off under Section 355 of the Code pursuant to Section 7.5(a). Any Blocker Reorganization shall be intended to be

tax-free (except to the extent of cash in lieu of fractional shares) to the A-VL Blocked Feeder, the A-VL Blocker Entities,

Public MetalCo and the shareholders of Public MetalCo, and no Blocker Reorganization shall be structured or effected in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (i) adversely affect the qualification of the

Spin-Off under Section 355 of the Code or the intended tax-free treatment of the Spin-Off to Silgan Holdings and its

shareholders or (ii) prevent or materially delay the consummation of the Spin-Off, in each case, as reasonably determined jointly and in good faith by the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including the definition of the MetalCo Spin and the GrowthCo Spin), the consummation of a Blocker Reorganization shall not be a condition

to, and shall not prevent, delay or otherwise affect, the consummation of the Spin-Off, and if a Blocker Reorganization has not been consummated at or prior to the closing of a

Spin-Off, the A-VL Investors and the Company shall instead consummate the Blocker Reorganization as promptly as reasonably practicable following such closing, to the

extent permitted by the limitations described in this Section 7.7(b).

maintained solely to hold, directly or indirectly, Units (and cash and cash equivalents) and shall have no business, operations or employees and no assets or liabilities other than Units, cash and cash equivalents, taxes and obligations under its

organizational documents and this Agreement; provided, however, the foregoing shall not limit any A-VL Blocker Entity’s ability to directly or indirectly incur indebtedness so long as such

indebtedness has been discharged prior to any Blocker Reorganization. In connection with any Transfer of A-VL Blocker Shares pursuant to this Section 7.7, such relevant A-VL Blocker Entities shall make customary representations and warranties to the transferee with respect to organization, authority, non-contravention, capitalization, title

to the A-VL Blocker Shares and (indirectly) the Units free and clear of Encumbrances. As of immediately prior to the closing of the Spin-Off or a Blocker Reorganization,

as applicable, each A-VL Blocker Entity will have cash or cash equivalents (including such cash received pursuant to the penultimate sentence of Section 6.3(c)) at least equal to the good faith estimate

of the accrued and unpaid income tax liabilities of such A-VL Blocker Entity.

ARTICLE VIII

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 8.1. Registration Rights. The Company, the A-VL Investors and the Silgan Investors

will negotiate in good faith, and will enter into a customary registration rights agreement in connection with an Initial Public Offering, which registration rights agreement will include the terms set forth on Exhibit I, and which

registration rights agreement shall be in form and substance agreed by the A-VL Investors and the Silgan Investors (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Company will deliver the

Registration Rights Agreement to the Unitholders, and the Unitholders will enter into and agree to be subject to the relevant terms of the Registration Rights Agreement in accordance with Exhibit I.

ARTICLE IX

PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

Section 9.1. Right of Participation.

(a) Generally. Subject to Section 4.3, not less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the

consummation of any Post-Closing Issuance, a written notice (an “Issuance Notice”) shall be furnished by the Company to each Eligible Preemptive Rights Unitholder, which Issuance Notice shall include:

(i) the Participation Securities to be issued;

(ii) the price or range of prices for, and material terms of, the Participation Securities; and

(iii) the date of the Participation Closing (if known).

(b) Exercise.

(i) Each Eligible Preemptive Rights Unitholder may elect to purchase Participation Securities by delivering to the Company,

within seven (7) Business Days after the date of the Issuance Notice, an irrevocable written notice (a “Participation Notice” and such Eligible Preemptive Rights Unitholder, a “Participation Unitholder”),

specifying the Participation Securities that such Participation Unitholder desires to purchase (not to exceed its Participation Portion). Each Participation Unitholder shall be entitled to purchase at the Participation Closing the Participation

Securities specified in its Participation Notice (not to exceed its Participation Portion) at the same price as all other purchasers of the same type and class (other than, in the case of a Participation Unitholder that is a Non-Institutional Unitholder, with respect to voting rights) of Participation Securities. If any Participation Unitholder elects not to purchase its full Participation Portion, the issuer shall allocate the

unpurchased Participation Securities to each of

those other Participation Unitholders who elected to purchase its full Participation Portion, with such allocation to each such Participation Unitholder equal to the product of (i) the

unpurchased Participation Securities and (ii) a fraction where the numerator is such other Participation Unitholder’s Participation Portion and the denominator is the sum of such other Participation Unitholders’ respective

Participation Portions; provided, that no Participation Unitholder shall be required to purchase more Participation Securities than the maximum number set forth in such Unitholder’s Participation Notice.

(ii) The closing of the Post-Closing Issuance (the “Participation Closing”) shall take place at such time

and place as specified by the Company. If the Participation Closing does not occur within ninety (90) days after the delivery of the Issuance Notice, or if the price for the Participation Securities is greater than or less than the price or

range set forth in the Issuance Notice (other than de minimis differences), each Participation Unitholder shall be released from such holder’s obligations under its Participation Notice, the Issuance Notice shall be null and void, and the

terms and provisions of this Section 9.1 must be separately complied with respect to any Post-Closing Issuance.

(c) Further Assurances. Each Participation Unitholder shall take all such reasonable actions to promptly consummate its purchase of

Participation Securities pursuant to this Section 9.1, including (i) executing, acknowledging and delivering consents, assignments, waivers and other documents or instruments; (ii) filing applications, reports,

returns, filings and other documents or instruments with governmental authorities; and (iii) otherwise cooperating with the Company on the same terms as the Silgan Investors to the extent the Silgan Investors are participating.

(d) Expenses. The Company and each Unitholder shall bear its own costs and expenses in connection with any Post-Closing Issuance or

purchase or sale of Participation Securities; provided, that all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Silgan Investors and

the A-VL Investors and their respective Affiliates shall be promptly reimbursed or paid by the Company upon request.

(e) Non-Voting Participation Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth

herein, to the extent that the Company intends to issue Participation Securities that have voting rights, the Company may, in its sole discretion, issue Participation Securities that do not have any such voting rights, but are otherwise economically

identical to the Participation Securities that do have such voting rights, to any Participation Unitholder that does not own Voting Securities as of the consummation of the Post-Closing Issuance or is otherwise a

Non-Institutional Unitholder.

Section 9.2. Excluded Transactions. The provisions of

this Article IX shall not apply to Post-Closing Issuances by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as follows:

(a) any

Post-Closing Issuance to Service Providers as compensation to such Service Providers;

(b) any Post-Closing Issuance in connection with

any unit split, unit dividend or other distribution (so long as all holders of the same class or series of Securities are treated equally with all other holders of such class or series of Securities);

(c) any Post-Closing Issuance in connection with the conversion, exchange or exercise of Securities issued in a prior Post-Closing Issuance in

accordance with the terms of such Securities;

(d) any Post-Closing Issuance in connection with a Drag Along Sale or pursuant to an Initial

Public Offering (including pursuant to Section 7.5(k));

(e) any Post-Closing Issuance the proceeds of which are

determines in good faith that the payment of the Call Price would be reasonably likely to render the Company or any of the Subsidiaries unable to satisfy its liabilities as they become due, or (z) the Board determines in good faith that there

Agreement for any loss or liability arising out of any act or omission of such Member in its capacity as such, other than to the extent arising from a breach by such Member of this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, including Section 18-1101(e) of the Delaware Act but subject to any limitations on exculpation that would

otherwise be imposed on directors of a Delaware corporation pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, no Director shall be liable or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Company,

of assets, liabilities, profits or losses or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions to Members might properly be paid.

Section 13.3. Indemnification.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall, and shall cause its Controlled Entities to, indemnify any Person made or

threatened to be made a party to an action or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she, his or her testator or intestate is or was a director or officer of the Company, any of its

Controlled Entities or any of its predecessors serves or served at any other enterprise as a director, officer, partner, member or manager at the request of the Company, any of its Controlled Entities or any of its predecessors (an

“Indemnitee”) and, upon request of such Indemnitee, the Company shall, and shall cause its Controlled Entities to, advance expenses to such Indemnitee in connection with any such action or proceeding (subject to such Indemnitee

providing an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such individual is not entitled to indemnification); provided, that the foregoing indemnification shall not apply to (i) any breach of such

Indemnitee’s duty of loyalty to the Company, its Members or its Controlled Entities, (ii) for acts or omissions of such Indemnitee not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law or

(iii) for any transaction from which such Indemnitee derived an improper personal benefit, in each case as ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) The Company will, and will cause its respective Subsidiaries to, jointly and severally, indemnify, exonerate and hold the Silgan

Investors, the A-VL Investors and each of their respective partners, stockholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents and each of the

partners, stockholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Institutional Indemnitees”) free and harmless from and

against any and all liabilities, losses, damages and costs and out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses)

incurred by the Institutional Indemnitees or any of them before or after the Effective Date (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), arising out of any action, cause of action, suit, litigation, investigation,

inquiry, arbitration or claim by any Person (other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) against any Institutional Indemnitee (each, an “Action”) arising directly or indirectly out of, or in any way relating to,

(i) such Unitholder’s or its Affiliates’ ownership of Securities or such Unitholder’s or its Affiliates’ control or ability to influence the Board, Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries (other than any such

Indemnified Liabilities (x) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities (A) are incurred as a result of willful misconduct of such Institutional Indemnitee or (B) arise out of any breach of this Agreement or any other agreement by such

Institutional Indemnitee or its Affiliates or other related Persons or the breach of any fiduciary or other duty or obligation of such Institutional Indemnitee to its direct or indirect equity holders, creditors or Affiliates or (y) to the

extent such control or the ability to control the Board, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries derives from such Unitholder’s or its Affiliates’

capacity as an officer or director of the Company, the Company or any such Subsidiaries) or (ii) the business, operations, properties, assets or other rights or liabilities of the Company or

any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unavailable or unenforceable for any reason, the Company will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, jointly and severally make

the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. For the purposes of this Section 13.3, none of the circumstances described in the

limitations contained in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to apply absent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to such effect (provided,

that any indemnity payments made by the Company or its Subsidiaries following a judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction determining that any such limitation applies, and pending such judgment becoming final and

non-appealable, shall be conditioned upon receipt of a written undertaking by such Institutional Indemnitee to repay such amounts consistent with this sentence), in which case to the extent any such limitation

is so determined to apply to any Institutional Indemnitee as to any previously advanced indemnity payments made by the Company, then such payments shall be promptly repaid by such Institutional Indemnitee to the Company.

(c) The Company will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, jointly and severally, reimburse any Institutional Indemnitee for all reasonable

costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any other litigation-related expenses) as they are incurred in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing, defending or assisting in the defense of any Action

for which the Institutional Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Article XIII, or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Institutional Indemnitee is a party thereto. The Company or

its Subsidiaries, in the defense of any Action for which an Institutional Indemnitee would be entitled to indemnification under the terms of this Article XIII, may, without the consent of such Institutional Indemnitee, consent to entry of any

judgment or enter into any settlement if and only if it (i) includes as a term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein to such Institutional Indemnitee of an unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Action,

(ii) does not impose any limitations (equitable or otherwise) on such Institutional Indemnitee, and (iii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Institutional

Indemnitee, and provided that the only penalty imposed in connection with such settlement is a monetary payment that will be paid in full by the Company or its Subsidiaries.

(d) The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause its Controlled Entities to, be fully

and primarily responsible for the payment to the Institutional Indemnitee in respect of Indemnified Liabilities in connection with any Jointly Indemnifiable Claims (as defined herein), pursuant to and in accordance with (as applicable) the terms of

(i) in the case of the Company and any Controlled Entities that are Delaware limited liability companies, the Delaware Act, in the case of any Controlled Entities that are Delaware corporations, the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended,

in the case of any Controlled Entities that are Delaware limited partnerships, the Delaware Limited Partnership Act, as amended, (ii) this Agreement and the Certificate of Formation of the Company, (iii) any director indemnification

agreement, (iv) any other agreement between the Company or any of its Controlled Entities and the Institutional Indemnitee pursuant to which the Institutional Indemnitee is indemnified, (v) the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation or

organization of the Company or any Controlled Entity and/or (vi) the certificate of incorporation, certificate of organization, bylaws, partnership agreement, operating agreement, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership or

other organizational or governing documents of the Company or any Controlled Entity ((i) through (vi) collectively, the “Indemnification Sources”), irrespective of any right of recovery the Indemnitee may have from any

corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (other than the Company, any Controlled Entity or the insurer under and pursuant to an insurance policy of the Company or any

Controlled Entity) from whom an Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification with respect to which, in whole or in part, the Company or any Controlled Entity may also

have an indemnification obligation (collectively, the “Indemnitee-Related Entities”). Under no circumstance shall the Company or any Controlled Entity be entitled to any right

of subrogation or contribution by the Indemnitee-Related Entities and no right of advancement or recovery the Institutional Indemnitee may have from the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of the Institutional

Indemnitee or the obligations of the Company or any Controlled Entity under the Indemnification Sources. In the event that any of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall make any payment to the Institutional Indemnitee in respect of indemnification

with respect to any Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, (x) the Company shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause the Controlled Entities to, reimburse the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment to the extent of such payment promptly upon

written demand from such Indemnitee-Related Entity, (y) to the extent not previously and fully reimbursed by the Company and/or any Controlled Entity pursuant to clause (x), the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment shall be subrogated

to the extent of the outstanding balance of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Institutional Indemnitee against the Company and/or any Controlled Entity, as applicable, and (z) the Institutional Indemnitee shall execute all

papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the Indemnitee-Related Entities effectively to bring suit to enforce

such rights. The Company and the Institutional Indemnitees agree that each of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this Section 13.3(d), entitled to enforce this

Section 13.3(d) as though each such Indemnitee-Related Entity were a party to this Agreement. The Company shall cause each of the Controlled Entities to perform the terms and obligations of this

Section 13.3(d) as though each such Controlled Entity was a party to this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 13.3(d), the term “Jointly Indemnifiable Claims” shall be

broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any Indemnified Liabilities for which the Institutional Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification from both (1) the Company and/or any Controlled Entity pursuant to the

Indemnification Sources, on the one hand, and (2) any Indemnitee-Related Entity pursuant to any other agreement between any Indemnitee-Related Entity and the Institutional Indemnitee pursuant to which the Institutional Indemnitee is

indemnified, the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of any Indemnitee-Related Entity and/or the certificate of incorporation, certificate of organization, bylaws, partnership agreement, operating agreement, certificate of

formation, certificate of limited partnership or other organizational or governing documents of any Indemnitee-Related Entity, on the other hand.

(e) The rights of any Indemnitee and/or Institutional Indemnitee to indemnification pursuant to this Section 13.3

will be in addition to any other rights any such Person may have under any other Section of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which such Indemnitee and/or Institutional Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes

a beneficiary or under law or regulation or under the certificate of limited partnership, limited partnership agreement, certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or equivalent governing documents) of the Company, any newly formed direct or indirect

parent or any direct or indirect Subsidiary or investment holding vehicle with respect to any of the foregoing.

(f) In addition to any

other indemnification rights the members of the Board have pursuant to this Agreement and any agreement with the Company, the Company shall have the right to enter into with each member of the Board a customary indemnification agreement in form and

substance approved by the Board, which indemnification agreement shall be the same for all directors of the Board.

(g) Neither any

amendment nor repeal of this Section 13.3, nor the adoption of any provision of this Agreement inconsistent with this Section 13.3, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this

Section 13.3 in respect of any matter occurring, or any action or proceeding accruing or arising or that, but for this Section 13.3, would accrue or arise, prior to such amendment, repeal or

adoption of an inconsistent provision.

(h) The Company may purchase and maintain, at its expense, directors’ and

officers’ liability insurance covering the Directors, the Officers and, to the extent available on commercially reasonable terms, the Institutional Indemnitees, in such amounts and on such terms as the Board reasonably determines are customary

for similarly situated companies.

ARTICLE XV

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 15.1. Remedies; Specific Performance. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that no remedy at law

would be adequate in the event of any breach of this Agreement. Accordingly, if any dispute arises concerning any provision of this Agreement or the obligations of the parties hereunder, each party hereto agrees that, in addition to any other remedy

to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, the other parties hereto shall be entitled to seek specific performance to enforce this Agreement (without bond or other security being required unless the party seeking such remedy fails to

demonstrate to an appropriate court having jurisdiction that such party has a likelihood of success on the merits), and each party hereto waives the defense in any action or proceeding brought to enforce this Agreement that there exists an adequate

remedy at law. The parties hereto further agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief. Such remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive and shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies the parties may have under this Agreement or otherwise.

(including any Employee-Related Agreement or other agreement pursuant to which any Unit was granted, issued or sold) embody the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and supersede

all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter; provided that such other agreements and documents shall not be deemed to be a part of, a modification of or an amendment to this Agreement. There

the Spin-Off.

Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors, in each case, for so long as such Persons hold any Units; provided, that (i) the Board may amend this Agreement without the consent of any Unitholder solely

to reflect joinders of Persons admitted, and Transfers effected and Securities issued, in each case, in accordance with this Agreement; (ii) the Dragging Party may amend (including by amendment and restatement) this Agreement to the extent

or substantially contemporaneously with, the closing of such Drag Along Sale as a result of which the A-VL Investors no longer hold any Units, and (iii) the Silgan Investors may amend (including by

amendment and restatement) this Agreement without the consent of any other Unitholder to the extent reasonably necessary to implement a Spin-Off in accordance with Section 7.5, and

purchase, asset purchase, reorganization, share exchange, business combination or otherwise) shall require the prior written consent of the Silgan Investors and the A-VL Investors that otherwise would have

been required pursuant to Section 15.3 of this Agreement had such amendment or modification been made to the corresponding provision or provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Any failure by any party at any time to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of such

provision or any other provisions hereof. Any amendment, restatement, modification or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 15.3 shall be effective and binding on the Company and each Unitholder.

of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that the body making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope,

duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of

the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

the ability to exercise any rights of the Silgan Investors under this Agreement in any manner among the Silgan Investors that the Silgan Investors see fit.

(b) All Securities held by the A-VL Investors shall be aggregated together for purposes of determining

the rights or obligations of any member of the A-VL Investors, or the application of any restrictions to any member of A-VL Investors, under this Agreement in which such

STRICTLY PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL

Re: Project Voyage – Put Option Agreement

Dear

Sirs,

We refer to our discussions relating to the contemplated acquisition by the Promisor directly or indirectly of the entire issued share capital in

the Company Beneficiary, a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands, having its official seat (statutaire zetel) in Amsterdam, the

Netherlands, and its office at Schiphol Boulevard 149, 1118 BG Schiphol, the Netherlands, registered with the Dutch Trade Register under number 75308789 from the Exal Beneficiary and the Ardagh Beneficiary by way of the acquisition of the Ardagh

Seller Shares and the Exal Seller Blocker Shares (the “Transactions”), pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the share purchase agreement attached to this letter as Schedule 1 (the

“SPA”).

This letter and its schedules (together, as may be amended from time to time, the “Put Option Agreement”)

set forth the irrevocable commitment of the Promisor to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in the SPA.

Capitalised terms and

expressions used and not otherwise defined in this Put Option Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the SPA and Section 1.3 (Other Definitional and Interpretive Matters) of the SPA shall apply mutatis mutandis to

this Put Option Agreement as if such Clause had been set out in full in this Put Option Agreement, it being specified that for the purposes of such provision, “Buyer” shall be construed as referring to the Promisor, “Seller

Representative” shall be construed as referring to the Beneficiary Representative, “Exal Seller” shall be construed as referring to the Exal Beneficiary, “Ardagh Seller” shall be construed as referring to the Ardagh

Beneficiary, “Company” shall be construed as referring to the Company Beneficiary and “Blocker” shall be construed as referring to the Blocker Beneficiary.

1 Put Option

1.1 The Promisor hereby irrevocably

undertakes to directly or indirectly acquire the Shares, at the sole option of the Beneficiary Representative (acting on behalf of the Beneficiaries) (such commitment, the “Put Option”), in accordance with the terms and subject to

the conditions set forth in the SPA (the entry into force of which requires only the exercise of the Put Option). The aggregate consideration to be paid by or on behalf of the Promisor to the Exal Beneficiary and the Ardagh Beneficiary for the

Shares in the event the Put Option is exercised shall be determined and paid in accordance with Article III of the SPA.

1.2 By countersigning this

Put Option Agreement, the Beneficiaries accept the Put Option solely as an option, it being expressly agreed by the Promisor that such acceptance shall not constitute, in any manner whatsoever, an undertaking by the Beneficiaries to exercise the Put

Option, to execute the SPA and/or to proceed with the Transactions.

1.3 This Put Option Agreement shall enter into force on the date hereof (the

“Put Option Date”) and shall remain valid until the earlier (the “Expiry Date”) of (a) the date which is five (5) Business Days after the date on which the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code

Process (as such terms are defined in Clause 3) have been completed and (b) nine (9) months after the Put Option Date, or until any other date as may be agreed in writing by the Promisor, the Beneficiary Representative and the Beneficiaries

(the “Option Period”); provided, that if an Exercise Notice is

validly delivered prior to the Expiry Date, this Put Option Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until and shall automatically terminate (without any further action by any Party) upon,

the earlier of (i) the SPA being executed and entered into in accordance with Clause 2.3 and (ii) the SPA coming into effect in accordance with Clause 2.4.

2 Exercise of the Put Option

2.1 The Put

Option may be exercised by the Beneficiary Representative (on behalf of both of the Exal Beneficiary and the Ardagh Beneficiary) at any time after completion of the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process until the end of the Option

Period by written notice in the form attached hereto as Schedule 2 sent by the Beneficiary Representative (on behalf of the Beneficiaries) to the Promisor in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.7 (Notices) of the SPA (the

“Exercise Notice”).

2.2 If no Exercise Notice has been sent by the end of the Option Period, the Put Option shall

automatically lapse without any formality or action on the part of any Party, and each Party shall be released from its obligations under this Put Option Agreement (without prejudice to the liability of any Party for Fraud or Willful Breach of this

Put Option Agreement, subject to Clause 7.3) save for the provisions of Clause 7.3, Clause 8 (Exclusivity), Clause 9 (Confidentiality – Publicity), Clause 10.5 (Expense Reimbursement) and Clause 11 (Reference to the

provisions of the SPA) below which shall continue to apply in accordance with their terms.

2.3 If an Exercise Notice has been sent by the end

of the Option Period in accordance with this Put Option Agreement, each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to sign and enter into the SPA within five (5) Business Days from receipt of the Exercise Notice (the date on which

the SPA is so executed and entered into by all parties thereto being the “SPA Execution Date”), and in any event for the Exal Beneficiary and the Ardagh Beneficiary to sell, and for the Promisor to directly or indirectly acquire,

as applicable, the Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the SPA.

2.4 If an Exercise Notice has

been sent by the end of the Option Period but the Parties have not signed and entered into the SPA within five (5) Business Days from receipt of the Exercise Notice by the Promisor, the Parties agree that the SPA shall automatically come into

effect as if it had been executed on the date falling five (5) Business Days from receipt of the Exercise Notice by the Promisor (the “Effective Date”) and any references to “the date of this Agreement” or any

similar expression within the SPA shall be deemed to be references to the Effective Date and the SPA shall be binding and enforceable from such date.

2.5 The Promisor hereby acknowledges that by countersigning this Put Option Agreement, the Beneficiaries will not be bound by any obligation of any

nature whatsoever in connection with the contemplated Transactions other than the Beneficiaries’ obligations under Clauses 2 (Exercise of the Put Option), 3 (Consultation Processes), 4 (Covenants), 5 (Antitrust

Clearances), 7 (Warranties of the Beneficiaries), 8 (Exclusivity), 9 (Confidentiality – Publicity), 10 (Enforcement) and 11 (Reference to the provisions of the SPA) below.

2.6 At the time that the SPA is entered into (or comes into effect as per Clause 2.4) and becomes valid and binding on the Promisor and the

Beneficiaries, all rights and obligations of the Promisor and the Beneficiaries under this Put Option Agreement (other than Clauses 7.3, 9 (Confidentiality – Publicity) and 11 (Reference to the provisions of the SPA)) shall

terminate with immediate effect (except in respect of claims arising out of any antecedent Fraud or Willful Breach of this Put Option Agreement, which shall be subject to Clause 7.3).

reasonable best efforts so that the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process are duly implemented by the Relevant Group Companies as soon as reasonably practicable as from the date hereof. The Beneficiaries shall, and shall procure that

each Relevant Group Company shall use reasonable best efforts to convene the first meeting of each Works Council for the purposes of the Consultation Processes as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, and in any event no later than

ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof; provided that any failure to hold such meeting within such period due to the availability, conduct or request of the relevant Works Council shall not constitute a breach of this Put Option

Agreement; provided, further, that the Beneficiaries shall, and shall procure that each Relevant Group Company shall, in any event convene the first meeting of each Works Council no later than twenty (20) Business Days after the date hereof.

The Beneficiaries, within the limit of their respective powers, shall cause each Relevant Group Company to pursue the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process diligently.

redact any document (or portions thereof) or information that may constitute privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product, the transfer of which, or the provision of access to which, on the advice of legal counsel, would

reasonably be expected to risk a waiver of such privilege, or if the provision of access to such document (or portion thereof) or information, on the advice of legal counsel, would reasonably be expected to conflict with applicable Law or conflict

with any confidentiality obligations to which any Beneficiary is bound (it being agreed that, in the event any of the foregoing restrictions apply, the Beneficiaries shall provide the Promisor with a reasonably detailed description and summary of

the information not provided and shall cooperate in good faith with the Promisor to design and implement alternative disclosure arrangements to enable the Promisor to evaluate such information, in each case, without jeopardizing any such privilege

or violating any such Law or confidentiality obligation). To the extent any material communication is provided orally, the Beneficiaries shall promptly provide the Promisor a reasonably detailed summary of such communication. Any material document

or written communication relating to the Promisor or any of its Affiliates shall only be submitted to the Works Councils or Trade Unions upon the Promisor’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). With

reasonable comments of the Promisor. The Beneficiaries shall, and shall cause each Relevant Group Company to, as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event promptly upon becoming aware of the same, notify the Promisor of any opinion (whether

Relevant Group Company, a copy of the minutes of the relevant Works Council meeting(s) recording such opinion. Without limiting the foregoing, the Promisor shall have the right to withhold or redact any document (or portions thereof) or information

relating to the Promisor or its Affiliates before such document or information is disclosed to the Works Councils or the Trade

Unions that may constitute privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product, the transfer of which, or the provision of access to which, on the advice of legal counsel, would

chart of the Promisor and its Affiliates, the financing of the contemplated Transactions and its prospects for the Acquired Companies, the expected consequences of the contemplated Transactions for the employees of the Relevant Group Companies and

Merger Code Process, including in order to answer promptly to the questions that may be raised by the Works Councils or the Trade Unions (or by any expert appointed by any of the Works Councils or Trade Unions as part of the Consultation Processes

and/or the Merger Code Process), as soon as practicable following receipt of a request thereto in writing from any of the Beneficiaries, but in any event within 3 Business Days of receipt of such request; provided that the Promisor may redact from

any such response, document or information any privileged information, business secrets or other commercially sensitive information;

(b) upon request

from the Beneficiaries or any Relevant Group Company, with reasonable advance notice, participate in the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process and cause appropriately senior representatives of the Promisor or its Affiliates to attend

meetings with the Works Councils or Trade Unions organised by the Relevant Group Companies as part of the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process; and

(c) cooperate with the Beneficiaries and each Relevant Group Company in connection with the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process with a view to

obtaining the opinion or advice, as applicable, of the Works Councils and/or the Trade Unions as soon as practicable as from the date hereof and avoid taking any act likely to prevent or materially delay the obtaining of the opinion or advice, as

applicable, of the Works Councils and/or the Trade Unions. The Parties acknowledge that in the context of the European Consultation Process, the Dutch Consultation Process and the Merger Code Process, the European Works Council, the Dutch Works

Council and the Trade Unions, respectively, may seek certain commitments in writing from a Relevant Group Company or the Parties. The Beneficiaries shall notify the Promisor of any request, commitment or relevant condition raised by the European

Works Council in the context of the European Consultation Process, the Dutch Works Council in the context of the Dutch Consultation Process or by the Trade Unions in the context of the Merger Code Process and the Parties shall discuss in good faith

any such requests, commitments or relevant conditions as needed to complete the applicable Consultation Process or the Merger Code Process; provided, that no Beneficiary or Relevant Group Company shall give any commitment, undertaking or

representation to any of the Works Councils (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the French Works Councils) or Trade Unions that would bind the Promisor, the Acquired Companies or any assets comprising the Transactions without the

Promisor’s prior written consent, and the Beneficiaries and the Relevant Group Companies may otherwise make any such commitments only to the extent consistent with the information and

measures provided by the Promisor pursuant to Clause 3.5. The Parties shall carefully consider the European Works Council’s opinion, and the Dutch Works Council’s advice that may be

useful to the decision making process and the opinion of the Trade Unions and discuss in good faith whether and to what extent the terms of the SPA should be amended, modified or otherwise altered to accommodate the European Works Council’s

opinion, the Dutch Works Council’s advice and, if provided, the opinion of the Trade Unions (without any binding obligation of any Party to agree any changes of the SPA).

3.6 The Promisor understands that, following completion of the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process, a final decision will be made by the

Beneficiaries regarding the contemplated Transactions, it being specified that for the purpose of this Put Option Agreement:

(a) the French Consultation

Process shall be completed or deemed to have been completed in relation to the contemplated Transactions on the earlier of:

(i) the completion of the

French Consultation Process by issuance of the last opinion (either positive, negative, or neutral) delivered by the French Works Councils with respect to the contemplated Transactions within the applicable maximum legal deadline set forth under the

French labour code or any longer period prescribed by any applicable collective bargaining agreements (provided that the Parties have not agreed through a method agreement an extension of the applicable maximum legal deadline set forth under the

French labour code); and

(ii) in the absence of all opinions from the French Works Councils, the latter of the dates on which each of the French Works

Councils will be deemed to have rendered its final opinion, as determined in good faith by the Beneficiaries in consultation with the Promisor, following the expiry of (i) the period prescribed by provisions of the French labour code or

(ii) any longer period prescribed by any applicable collective bargaining agreements (provided that the Parties have not agreed through a method agreement an extension of the applicable maximum legal deadline set forth under the French labour

code), or as may be ordered by a competent court in accordance with applicable law, and

(b) the European Consultation Process shall be completed or

deemed to have been completed in relation to the contemplated Transactions upon the earlier of:

(i) receipt of the verbal or written opinion of the

European Works Council on the contemplated Transactions;

(ii) receipt of a written confirmation from the European Works Council that consultation on the

contemplated Transactions can be considered completed; and

(iii) the expiration of eight weeks after the first meeting with the European Works Council on

the contemplated Transactions after the date of this Put Option Agreement.

The Parties agree that they shall in good faith discuss and consider the

opinion given by the European Works Council.

consistent with the Dutch Works Council’s advice; (ii) the Dutch Works Council has waived its right of advice in writing; or (iii) it is completed in a way that deviates from the Dutch Works Council’s advice and:

(i) the Dutch Works Council has waived its rights in writing to initiate legal proceedings pursuant to article 26 of the Dutch Works Councils Act; or

(ii) the applicable one (1) month waiting period pursuant to article 25(6) of the Dutch Works Councils

Act has lapsed without the Dutch Works Council having initiated legal proceedings pursuant to article 26 of the Dutch Works Councils Act; or

(iii) any

legal proceedings initiated by the Dutch Works Council pursuant to article 26 of the Dutch Works Councils Act (including any appeals) have been dismissed to the effect that no measures obstructing the implementation of the contemplated Transactions

are imposed by the Dutch Enterprise Chamber (Ondernemingskamer) and any such dismissal is no longer subject to appeal (in kracht van gewijsde). In the event that the Dutch Enterprise Chamber in a final order decides in favour of the

Dutch Works Council, the Beneficiaries will re-open the consultation with the Dutch Works Council taking the Dutch Enterprise Chamber’s decision into account. The Beneficiaries shall discuss in good

faith with the Promisor (without any binding obligation of any of the Parties to agree any changes) whether and to what extent the terms of the contemplated Transactions should be altered to accommodate the outcome of this second round of the Dutch

Consultation Process and the Dutch Enterprise Chamber’s decision; and

(d) the Merger Code Process shall be deemed completed if: (i) the Dutch

Social Economic Council has been notified; (ii) the Trade Unions have been notified and invited to a consultation meeting; and (iii) the earlier of (a) none of the Trade Unions having responded to the notifications referred to above

within one (1) month of their issuance, (b) the Trade Unions all having informed the Relevant Group Company, or one of the Parties, of their views on the contemplated Transactions and such views having been discussed in good faith and

considered by the Parties, (c) the Trade Unions all having indicated that they are not interested in a consultation meeting with any of the Parties or the Relevant Group Company in respect of the contemplated Transactions, or (d) a

combination of the above.

3.7 The Beneficiaries shall notify the Promisor of the completion of each of the Consultation Processes and the Merger

Code Process, as soon as reasonably practicable, after such completion occurs, and, in any event within two Business Days of each of such completions.

(or any expert appointed by any of them) or to agree to any amendment, modification or alteration of the SPA or any other Transaction Document, and no failure or refusal by the Promisor or any of its Affiliates to do any of the foregoing shall

constitute a breach of Clause 3.5, this Clause 3.8 or Clause 10.6 or a failure to use reasonable best efforts hereunder.

information provided by the Promisor to the Beneficiaries or any Relevant Group Company for the purposes of the Consultation Processes shall be treated as confidential, and the Beneficiaries shall procure, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws,

10 Enforcement

10.1 Subject to Clauses 2.2, 5.2 and 10.6, the Promisor expressly agrees that: (i) its obligations under this Put Option Agreement, in particular

the undertakings set out in Clause 2.3, to acquire the Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the SPA, are irrevocable and unconditional and may not be withdrawn for any reason whatsoever (including, for the avoidance

of doubt, prior to the exercise of the Put Option) and (ii) the SPA shall be valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms upon execution of the SPA in accordance with Clause 2.3 or on the date falling five (5) Business Days

after receipt of the Exercise Notice by the Promisor in accordance with Clause 2.4 (whether or not the SPA has been signed), and the sale of the Shares shall be consummated at the Closing pursuant to the terms and conditions of the SPA.

10.2 Subject to Clauses 2.2, 5.2 and 10.6, the Promisor acknowledges that the Put Option is unconditional and irrevocable and therefore undertakes not

to withdraw the Put Option until the Expiry Date. Any withdrawal of the Put Option by the Promisor shall not prevent the performance of the Transactions under the terms of the SPA (whether executed or not) to the extent the Beneficiary

Representative (on behalf of the Beneficiaries) delivers an Exercise Notice before the Expiry Date.

10.3 The validity and enforceability of the

Put Option Agreement is not subject to the execution of the SPA and accordingly, upon exercise of the Put Option and execution of the SPA by the Beneficiaries and the Beneficiary Representative (or on the date falling five (5) Business Days

after receipt of the Exercise Notice by the Promisor in accordance with Clause 2.4), the Promisor shall be bound to acquire the Shares at the Closing at the price and on and subject to the other terms and conditions of the SPA, whether or not the

SPA has been executed by the Promisor.

10.4 Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies which any Party may have, each Party acknowledges

and agrees that damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Put Option Agreement and the Parties shall be entitled to seek the remedies of injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief for any

threatened or actual breach of any such provision, in addition to the right to Expense Reimbursement of the Promisor under Clause 10.5, and no proof of special damages shall be necessary for the enforcement by the Parties of the rights under this

Put Option Agreement.

10.5 If (a) the Consultation Processes and the Merger Code Process have been validly completed in accordance

with this Put Option Agreement and (b) the Beneficiary Representative (on behalf of the Beneficiaries) have not delivered an Exercise Notice on or prior to the Expiry Date (a “Non-Exercise

Event”), then the Beneficiaries shall each pay to the Promisor an amount equal to its portion (as determined in accordance with this Section 10.5) of the reasonable and documented

out-of-pocket third party costs, fees and expenses actually incurred by the Promisor and its Affiliates in

connection with the Transactions prior to the earlier of (x) the Expiry Date and (y) the date of the termination or lapse of this Put Option Agreement (including the fees, costs and expenses of legal, financial, accounting and tax advisors

actually incurred by the Promisor and its Affiliates, whether or not paid thereafter, and any non-refundable premiums, underwriting fees and other costs incurred by the Promisor and its Affiliates with respect

to any R&W Insurance Policy and the insurance policy with respect to the item set forth in Schedule 8.12(f)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedules to the SPA) (the “Expense Reimbursement”), such payment to be made no later

than 10 Business Days following delivery by the Promisor to the Beneficiaries of a written statement itemizing such costs, fees and expenses, accompanied by copies of the applicable invoices and such other reasonable supporting documentation as the

Beneficiary Representative may request (which statement shall be delivered no later than 10 Business Days following the Expiry Date or, if applicable, the date of such termination or lapse); provided that such Expense Reimbursement shall in no event

exceed an amount equal to $40,000,000 in the aggregate. For purposes of this Clause 10.5, “Affiliates” of the Promisor shall include AIP, LLC, Fund IX and any of their respective Affiliates, investment vehicles, funds or any other

similar entities but shall exclude portfolio companies. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) nothing in this Clause 10.5 shall be construed as creating any obligation on the Beneficiary Representative (on behalf of the Beneficiaries) to deliver an

Exercise Notice or otherwise to exercise the Put Option, (2) no Expense Reimbursement shall be payable in respect of any lapse or termination of this Put Option Agreement other than as a result of a

Non-Exercise Event, (3) in no event shall the Beneficiaries be required to pay the Expense Reimbursement on more than one occasion, (4) the obligations and liabilities of each of the Exal Beneficiary

and the Ardagh Beneficiary under this Clause 10.5 shall be several, and not joint or joint and several, and each of them shall be liable only for its Pro Rata Share (being 57.75% in the case of the Exal Beneficiary and 42.25% in the case of the

Ardagh Beneficiary) of the Expense Reimbursement; no failure by either of them to pay its Pro Rata Share shall increase the liability of the other, and neither the Company Beneficiary nor the Blocker Beneficiary shall have any liability under this

Clause 10.5 and (5) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Put Option Agreement or the SPA, other than in the case of Fraud or Willful Breach prior to a Non-Exercise Event, the Expense

Reimbursement shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Promisor and its Affiliates against the Beneficiaries and their respective Affiliates in respect of an Non-Exercise Event; provided that the right of

the Promisor to pursue damages for Willful Breach by the Beneficiaries shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, the right to receive the Expense Reimbursement, such that (x) if the Promisor commences any Legal Proceeding seeking monetary

damages in respect of any Willful Breach by the Beneficiaries, the Beneficiaries shall have no obligation to pay the Expense Reimbursement (and to the extent already paid, the Promisor shall promptly repay to each Beneficiary the portion of the

Expense Reimbursement it has already paid upon the earlier to occur of (A) the filing by the Promisor, with a court of competent jurisdiction, of a complaint asserting a claim for monetary damages in respect of a Willful Breach by the

Beneficiaries and (B) the delivery by the Promisor to the Beneficiaries of a written notice expressly electing to pursue monetary damages in respect of a Willful Breach by the Beneficiaries in lieu of the Expense Reimbursement), and (y) if

the Promisor has not delivered such a notice or filed such a complaint on or prior to the date that is 90 days following the Non-Exercise Event (or, if later, 90 days following the Promisor’s receipt of

the full Expense Reimbursement), the Promisor and its Affiliates shall be deemed to have irrevocably elected to receive the Expense Reimbursement and to have waived and released any and all claims against the Beneficiaries in respect of any Willful

Breach by the Beneficiaries. For purposes of this Put Option Agreement, “Willful Breach” means a deliberate act or a deliberate failure to act, which act or failure to act constitutes a material breach of any covenant set forth in

this Put Option Agreement (including any provision of the SPA incorporated herein pursuant to Clause 4.1 or Clause 11), with actual knowledge that such act or failure to act would reasonably be expected to constitute a material

breach of this Put Option Agreement (including any provision of the SPA incorporated herein pursuant to Clause 4.1 or Clause 11). The Beneficiaries undertake not to challenge the validity or

enforceability of (i) the Promisor’s entitlement to the Expense Reimbursement upon the occurrence of a Non-Exercise Event without prejudice to their right to dispute whether a Non-Exercise Event has occurred, and/or (ii) the Promisor’s right to seek damages in the event of a Willful Breach by the Beneficiaries or the Company. The provisions of this Clause 10.5 are an integral

part of this Put Option Agreement without which the Promisor would not have entered into this Put Option Agreement.

10.6 In the event this Put

Option Agreement is terminated (whether pursuant to this Clause 10, pursuant to Clause 1.3, 2.6 or 5.2 or because the Beneficiary Representative (on behalf of the Beneficiaries) have not delivered an Exercise Notice on or prior to the Expiry Date),

each Party shall be released from its obligations under this Put Option Agreement (without prejudice to the liability of any Party for Fraud or Willful Breach of this Put Option Agreement prior to such termination or lapse, subject to Clause 7.3)

save for the provisions of Clause 7.3, Clause 9 (Confidentiality – Publicity), Clause 10 (Enforcement) (including Clause 10.5 (Expense Reimbursement) and Clause 11 (Reference to the provisions of the SPA). In addition, if

the termination of this Put Option Agreement results from the Beneficiary Representative (on behalf of the Beneficiaries) deciding not to deliver an Exercise Notice on or prior to the Expiry Date (outside any early termination case pursuant to

Clause 1.3, 2.6, 5.2 or 10), the provisions of Clause 8 (Exclusivity) shall also survive until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Exclusivity Period and (ii) the first date on which (x) the Expense Reimbursement has been

paid in full in accordance with Clause 10.5, and (y) the Promisor and its Affiliates irrevocably elect to receive (or are deemed to have irrevocably elected to receive pursuant to Clause 10.5) the Expense Reimbursement and waive and release (or

are deemed to have waived and released pursuant to Clause 10.5) any and all claims against the Beneficiaries in respect of any Willful Breach by the Beneficiaries.

provided that nothing in this sentence shall relieve Buyer of liability for any failure to make a payment in accordance with the Estimated Statement, the Allocation Schedule or this Agreement, or for any error introduced by Buyer in the funds

flow memorandum.

3.2 Closing Date Payments by Buyer.

3.3 Closing Statement.

(a) Within 75 days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to the Seller Representative a written statement (the “Closing

Statement”), setting forth its good faith calculation of the Leakage, the Company Transaction Expenses and the resulting calculation of Final Consideration, in each case prepared in a manner consistent with the definitions in this

Agreement and based upon the accounting books and records of the Blocker and the Acquired Companies, together with reasonable supporting detail and documentation. If Buyer fails to timely deliver the Closing Statement, then the Seller Representative

may deliver written notice of such failure to Buyer, and if Buyer does not deliver the Closing Statement within five Business Days following receipt of such notice, the Estimated Statement shall be deemed to be the final Closing Statement and shall

be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties.

(b) Within 30 days following receipt by the Seller Representative of the Closing

Statement (such period, the “Review Period”), the Seller Representative shall deliver written notice to Buyer of any dispute the Seller Representative has with respect to the calculation of Leakage, Company Transaction Expenses or

Final Consideration reflected in the Closing Statement (the “Dispute Notice”); provided that if the Seller Representative does not deliver any Dispute Notice to Buyer within such Review Period, the Closing Statement will be

final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. The Dispute Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail (i) any item on the Closing Statement that the Seller Representative disputes and (ii) the Seller Representative’s estimate of the

correct amount of such item. Any items not disputed or objected to in the Dispute Notice timely delivered by the Seller Representative to Buyer shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Parties. The Closing Statement shall be deemed to have been

accepted by the Parties and shall become final and binding upon the Parties as of the expiration of the Review Period with respect to any matters set forth therein not then subject to an unresolved dispute set forth in the Dispute Notice. Upon

receipt by Buyer of a Dispute Notice, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute set forth therein. All such discussions and communications related thereto shall (unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and the

Seller Representative) be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule, in each case, as in effect as of the Put Option Date, and any resolution by them agreed to in writing as to any disputed amounts

shall be final, binding and conclusive.

after delivery of the Dispute Notice or such longer period as mutually agreed to by the Parties (the “Dispute Resolution Period”), then, within ten Business Days following the expiration of the Dispute Resolution Period, Grant

Thornton LLP or, if such firm is not available or is unwilling to accept the engagement, then a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants reasonably acceptable to the Seller Representative and Buyer (the

“Independent Accounting Firm”) shall be engaged to resolve any such dispute; provided that, if the Seller Representative and Buyer are unable to mutually agree on an accounting firm to serve as the Independent Accounting

Firm or such selected accounting firm is unwilling or unable to perform the services required under this Section 3.3 and the Seller Representative and Buyer are unable to mutually agree on another accounting firm to serve

as the Independent Accounting Firm, then each of the Seller Representative and Buyer shall select a nationally recognized major accounting firm, and the two firms will mutually select a third nationally recognized firm of independent certified

public accountants to serve as the Independent Accounting Firm. The Seller Representative and Buyer each agree to promptly sign an engagement letter, in commercially reasonable form, as may reasonably be required by the Independent Accounting Firm.

As promptly as practicable, and in any event not more than 15 days following the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall each prepare and submit a written presentation detailing each party’s

complete statement of proposed resolution of each issue set forth in the Dispute Notice and still in dispute to the Independent Accounting Firm (it being understood that the content of each such presentation shall be limited to whether the Leakage

and the Company Transaction Expenses were properly calculated in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement, the proposed resolution of each disputed issue by such Party and reasonable supporting detail for the foregoing). Buyer and the

Seller Representative shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to, as soon as practicable after the submission of the presentations described in the immediately preceding sentence and in any event not more than 20 days following such

presentations, acting as an expert in accounting and not as an arbitrator, make a final determination, binding on the Parties to this Agreement, of the appropriate amount of each of the line items that remain in dispute as indicated in the Dispute

Notice in accordance with the definitions and terms of this Agreement. None of the Seller Representative, Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any ex parte communications or meetings with the Independent Accounting Firm

regarding the subject matter hereof without the other Party’s prior written consent. Neither Buyer nor the Seller Representative will disclose to the Independent Accounting Firm any settlement discussions or settlement offer made by or on

behalf of Buyer or the Seller Representative, and the Independent Accounting Firm shall agree that between the time the Seller Representative delivered the Dispute Notice and the date on which any disputed item was submitted to the Independent

Accounting Firm, Buyer and the Seller Representative and their respective Representatives may have exchanged certain proposals relating to the disputed items that were intended solely for purposes of facilitating settlement discussions, and such

proposals were confidential and were provided solely on the condition and understanding that such proposals would not be permitted to be disclosed in any court or arbitration hearing or in respect of the Independent Accounting Firm’s

engagement in the dispute, and the Independent Accounting Firm will be instructed to disregard any evidence of such settlement proposals and negotiations in its consideration of the disputed items. With respect to each disputed line item, the

Independent Accounting Firm shall only assign a value to each disputed item equal to the value claimed by either the Seller Representative or Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Independent

Accounting Firm shall be limited to whether any disputed determinations of the Leakage and the Company Transaction Expenses were properly calculated in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement, and the Independent Accounting Firm shall not

create, imply or otherwise give effect to any category of Leakage, Company Transaction Expenses or other adjustment to Final

Consideration that is not expressly contemplated by this Agreement. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be allocated to be paid by Buyer, on the one hand, and the

Seller Representative, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party, as determined by the Independent Accounting Firm. For

example, if the Seller Representative claims in a Dispute Notice that the adjustment amount is $1,000 greater than the amount determined by Buyer in the Closing Statement, and if the Independent Accounting Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by

awarding the Seller Representative $600 of the $1,000 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm will be allocated 60% (i.e., 600 ÷ 1,000) to Buyer and 40% (i.e., 400 ÷ 1,000) to the Seller

Representative. All determinations made by the Independent Accounting Firm, and the Closing Statement, as modified by the Independent Accounting Firm, will, absent manifest error or fraud, (i) be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and

(ii) neither Buyer nor the Seller Representative shall seek further recourse to courts or other tribunals, other than to enforce such determination.

(d) For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 3.3, each of the Seller Representative and

Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with and promptly make available to each other and their respective Representatives, to the extent requested, all personnel, information, records, data and working papers (subject to customary confidentiality

agreements and access letters, as applicable), and shall permit reasonable access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Closing Statement, as applicable, and the

resolution of any disputes thereunder; provided that the Seller Representative or Buyer may withhold any document (or portions thereof) or information that may constitute privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product, the

transfer of which, or the provision of access to which, on the advice of legal counsel, would reasonably be expected to risk a waiver of such privilege or if the provision of access to such document (or portion thereof) or information, on the advice

of legal counsel, would reasonably be expected to conflict with applicable Law (it being agreed, that, in the event any of the restrictions in the foregoing apply, the disclosing party shall provide the other party with a reasonably detailed

description and summary of the information not provided and cooperate in good faith with such other party to design and implement alternative disclosure arrangements to enable such other party and its Representatives to evaluate any such information

without resulting in such violation or jeopardizing such attorney-client privilege or contravening such Laws).

(e) Within five Business

Days of the final determination of the Final Consideration:

(i) if the Final Consideration exceeds the Estimated

Consideration paid at the Closing, then (A) Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to the Sellers (in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares as set forth in the Allocation Schedule) an amount in cash equal to such excess, in each case by

wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated in writing by the Seller Representative, and (B) Buyer and the Seller Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint written instruction instructing the Escrow

Agent to release to the Exal Seller a portion of the Escrow Funds in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share in the Escrow Funds by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated in writing by the Seller Representative.

(ii) if the Final Consideration is less than the Estimated Consideration

paid at the Closing (the amount of such shortfall, the “Downward Adjustment Amount”), then (A) Buyer and the Seller Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint written instruction instructing the Escrow Agent to

release the to (1) Buyer a portion of the Escrow Funds in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Escrow Funds and (y) the Downward Adjustment Amount and (2) the Exal Seller a portion of the Escrow Funds in an amount equal to

its Pro Rata Share of the remaining Escrow Funds, if any, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated in writing by the Seller Representative and (B) to the extent the Downward Adjustment Amount exceeds the

amount of the Escrow Funds (such shortfall amount, the “Shortfall Amount”), then the Sellers shall, severally and not jointly, pay or cause to be paid to Buyer an amount in cash equal to such Seller’s portion of the

Shortfall Amount; provided that such obligations of the Sellers shall be (x) in the case of any Shortfall Amount in respect of Company Transaction Expenses in excess of the Estimated Company Transaction Expenses, an amount equal to the

portion of the Shortfall Amount equal to such Company Transaction Expenses in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares as set forth in the Allocation Schedule, and (y) any Leakage in excess of Estimated Leakage to a Seller or its

Related Leakage Parties, such Seller severally undertakes to pay to Buyer an amount equal to the portion of the Shortfall Amount equal to such Leakage received by or for the benefit of it or its applicable Related Leakage Party; provided,

further, that, the Parties agree that the Escrow Funds released to Buyer pursuant to clause (A) above shall be deemed to have been applied against (x) first, the portion of the Downward Adjustment Amount attributable to Leakage in

excess of Estimated Leakage and (y) thereafter, the portion of the Downward Adjustment Amount attributable to Company Transaction Expenses in excess of the Estimated Company Transaction Expenses;

(iii) if the Final Consideration is equal to the Estimated Consideration paid at the Closing, then Buyer and the Seller

Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint written instruction instructing the Escrow Agent to release to the Exal Seller a portion of the Escrow Funds in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Funds by wire transfer of

immediately available funds to the account(s) designated in writing by the Seller Representative.

(f) Any payment made pursuant to this

Section 3.3 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Estimated Consideration for all purposes, except as otherwise required by applicable Law. The adjustment procedures described in this

Section 3.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to determination of Leakage and Company Transaction Expenses, and the resulting calculation of the Final Consideration.

(g) The aggregate liability of each Seller in respect of any Leakage shall not exceed an amount equal to the Leakage received by or given for

the benefit of or deemed to be received by such Seller and its Related Leakage Parties (it being understood that the foregoing limitation shall not limit Buyer’s recourse to the Escrow Funds in accordance with

Section 3.3(e)). Any Leakage attributed to the Blocker shall be counted only once and shall be allocated solely to the Exal Seller. Any Specified Leakage shall be allocated solely to the Ardagh Seller.

(h) Any (i) Leakage that cannot reasonably be attributed to be for the benefit of any

particular Seller or a Related Leakage Party of a Seller, shall be deemed to be for the benefit of both Sellers pro rata in accordance with each Seller’s Pro Rata Share and (ii) Leakage under paragraph (j) of the definition of

Leakage shall be deemed to be received by or for the benefit of any Seller if it is payable, arises or is incurred in connection with any Leakage paid to, for the benefit of or on behalf of that Seller or a Related Leakage Party of that Seller or

deemed to be for the benefit of that Seller pursuant to Section 3.3(g).

3.4 Withholding. The Parties

agree that, absent a change in applicable Law to the contrary, no deductions or withholdings for or on account of Tax are expected to be required by applicable Law to be made with respect to the payment of the Estimated Consideration or Final

Consideration, as applicable. If, as a result of such change in applicable Law, any Person (including Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates) is required to deduct and withhold from any payments made under this Agreement to the

Sellers or any other Person, such Person shall be entitled to deduct and withhold such amounts, and any amounts so deducted and withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Body as required by applicable Law shall be treated for all

purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. Buyer, the Company and their respective Affiliates, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the

applicable payee with a written notice of its intention to withhold at least five (5) Business Days prior to any such withholding and each of the applicable Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any such Taxes. No

deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax from any amounts payable under this Agreement shall be permitted with respect to the failure to cause to be delivered the certificate described in Section 2.3(a)(viii).

obligations, as of the Put Option Date, with respect to all current and former participants in each such Foreign Benefit Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations most recently used to determine employer contributions to such

Foreign Benefit Plan, and (iii) if intended or required to be qualified, approved or registered with a Governmental Body, are and have been so qualified, approved or registered and nothing has occurred that would reasonably be expected to

7.3

Conflicts; Consents of Third Parties.

(a) None of the execution, delivery and performance by Buyer of this Agreement or the Buyer

Documents, the consummation by Buyer of the Transactions, or compliance by Buyer with any of the provisions hereof or thereof will (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Organizational Documents of Buyer; (ii) conflict

Company’s or the Sellers’ (as opposed to any other third party’s) participation in the Transactions.

Litigation.There are no Legal Proceedings pending or, to the Knowledge of Buyer, threatened against Buyer that would reasonably be expected to challenge, prohibit, restrain or otherwise materially delay Buyer’s ability to enter

into this Agreement or consummate the Transactions. Buyer is not subject to any Order except to the extent the Order would not reasonably be expected to prohibit or restrain the ability of Buyer to enter into this Agreement or consummate the

Transactions.

7.5 Brokers’ Fee.No Person has acted, directly or indirectly, as a broker, finder or financial

advisor for Buyer in connection with the Transactions and no such Person is entitled to any fee or commission or like payment from Buyer in respect thereof.

7.6 Sufficient Funds.

(a) Buyer has delivered to the Company true, correct, and complete copies of (i) an executed Equity Commitment Letter to provide, subject

to the terms and conditions therein, the Equity Financing, and (ii) an executed commitment letter from the Debt Financing Sources, dated as of the Put Option Date (together with the term sheets and any other annexes, exhibits, schedules and

other attachments thereto, the “Debt Commitment Letter” and, together with the Equity Commitment Letter, the “Commitment Letters”, and the commitments under the Debt Commitment Letter, the “Debt

Financing Commitments” and, together with the Equity Financing Commitment, the “Financing Commitments”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of which, the Debt Financing Sources have committed to

lend the amounts set forth therein to Buyer for the purpose of funding the Transactions (the “Debt Financing” and, together with the Equity Financing, collectively referred to as the “Financing”), and each

related fee letter (collectively, the “Fee Letters”), copies of which may be redacted in a customary manner to remove only the fees, pricing terms, pricing flex, pricing caps and other economic and commercially sensitive terms set

forth therein so long as such redacted information would not reasonably be expected to adversely affect the conditionality, availability or aggregate principal amount of the Debt Financing.

(b) As of the Put Option Date, the Commitment Letters are in full force and effect and have

not been withdrawn, rescinded, replaced or terminated, or otherwise amended, restated, amended and restated, waived, supplemented or otherwise modified in any respect, and no such withdrawal, rescission, replacement, termination, amendment,

intention to withdraw, rescind or terminate the Financing Commitments. As of the Put Option Date, the Commitment Letters are a legal, valid and binding obligation of Fund IX (and, as to its obligations thereunder, Fund IX VL Holdings) (with respect

to the Equity Commitment Letter) and Buyer (with respect to the Debt Commitment Letter) and, to the Knowledge of Buyer, the other parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the same may be limited by the Equitable

Exceptions. As of the Put Option Date, the Commitment Letters contain all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the parties thereunder to make the full amount of the Financing available to Buyer on the terms set forth therein, and no

Financing Commitment is subject to any other condition precedent (including pursuant to any “market flex” terms in any Fee Letter). As of the Put Option Date, there are no written agreements, side letters or written arrangements (other

than the Commitment Letters and the Fee Letters) relating to the Financing that would impose additional conditions precedent or other contingencies related to the funding of the full amount of the Financing other than as expressly set forth in this

Agreement or the Financing Commitments. As of the Put Option Date, Buyer is not in breach of any of the terms or conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter and Fund IX VL Holdings is not in breach of any of the terms or conditions set forth

in the Equity Commitment Letter. As of the Put Option Date, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Buyer or Fund IX VL Holdings, as applicable, under any term

or condition of the Commitment Letters, and, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 and the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in

Article IV through Article VI herein, Buyer does not have any reason to believe that it or Fund IX VL Holdings, as applicable, will be unable to satisfy, on a timely basis, any condition to the Closing to be satisfied by it contained

in the Commitment Letters, or that the full amount of the Financing will not be available to Buyer on the Closing Date. Buyer or Fund IX VL Holdings, as applicable, has fully paid or caused to be fully paid any and all commitment fees or other fees

required by the Financing Commitments, the Commitment Letters or any Fee Letter to be paid on or before the Put Option Date. Assuming the Closing is consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the satisfaction of the conditions

set forth in Section 9.1 and Section 9.2, the aggregate proceeds from the Financing (net of original issue discount, upfront fees and other fees, premiums and charges payable in connection

therewith, after giving effect to the maximum amount of “market flex” provided under the Debt Financing Commitments and each Fee Letter) will be sufficient for satisfaction of all of Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement in an

amount sufficient to consummate the Transactions, including the payment of the Estimated Consideration, repayment of the Specified Debt and the payment of all associated costs and expenses (including the Company Transaction Expenses) (collectively,

the “Required Amount”).

Buyer’s, its Affiliates’, or any other Person’s ability to obtain financing for the consummation of the Transactions.

each Guarantor has duly executed and delivered to the Company the Limited Guarantees, dated as of the Put Option Date. As of the Put Option Date, each Limited Guarantee is in full force and effect and is the valid, binding obligation of each

Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be limited by the Equitable Exceptions, and no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of

any Guarantor under the Limited Guarantees.

7.8 Solvency.

(a) Immediately after giving effect to the purchase and sale of the Shares and the consummation of the other Transactions, including the

Financing and any Replacement Financing permitted by this Agreement, and assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.1 and Section 9.2, and the accuracy of the

representations and warranties set forth in Article IV through Article VI herein, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will be Solvent. In completing the Transactions, Buyer does not intend to hinder, delay

or defraud any present or future creditors of Buyer or the Company or the Company Subsidiaries. Neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates has any current intention to divest any material assets of the Acquired Companies or otherwise implement any

material adverse changes to the operation of the business of the Acquired Companies following the Closing, in each case, in a manner that would reasonably be expected to materially impair the Acquired Companies’ ability to materially satisfy

their creditors.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Solvent” means, when used with respect to the Company, that, as

of any date of determination:

(i) the fair saleable value (determined on a going concern basis) of the assets of Buyer and

the Company and the Company Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis shall be greater than the total amount required to pay their liabilities (including all liabilities, whether or not reflected in a balance sheet prepared in accordance with IFRS, and

whether direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, secured or unsecured, disputed or undisputed);

(ii) Buyer and the Company

and the Company Subsidiaries shall be able to pay their debts, obligations, and liabilities in the Ordinary Course of Business as they become absolute and mature; and

(iii) Buyer and the Company and the Company Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis shall not have unreasonably small capital for

the operation of the businesses in which they are engaged or proposed to be engaged thereafter.

acting on behalf of Buyer (a) is a Sanctioned Party or (b) has directly or indirectly engaged in the last five years in any transactions or dealings with or involving any Sanctioned Parties or in any Sanctioned Jurisdictions in violation

of applicable Sanctions. Neither Buyer nor, to the Knowledge of Buyer, any of Buyer’s officers, directors, or employees, has been the subject or

target of any investigation, prosecution, other enforcement action, or government inquiries related to Sanctions violations or submitted a voluntary self-disclosure to any U.S. or other relevant

government agency regarding actual or potential Sanctions violations, in each case, except as would not prohibit, restrain or otherwise materially delay Buyer’s performance of this Agreement or ability of Buyer to consummate the Transactions.

The monies used to fund Buyer’s purchase of the Shares were not funded by, or otherwise derived from, any Sanctioned Party in violation of any applicable Sanctions.

7.10 Project Vulcan Transaction Documents.Concurrently with the execution of the Put Option Agreement, Buyer has duly executed the

Project Vulcan Transaction Agreement and delivered to the Company a copy thereof. As of the Put Option Date, the Project Vulcan Transaction Agreement is in full force and effect and is the valid, binding obligation of Buyer, enforceable in

accordance with its terms except as the same may be limited by the Equitable Exceptions, and no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default on the part of any party thereto. As of the Put

Option Date, the Project Vulcan Transaction Agreement has not been terminated, amended, restated, amended and restated, waived, supplemented or otherwise modified in any respect, and no such termination, amendment, restatement, amendment and

restatement, waiver, supplement or other modification is contemplated.

warrants to the Sellers, the Blocker and the Company that it is not relying upon, and will not rely upon, (a) any representation or warranty, expressed or implied, at law or in equity, made by any Person in respect of the Sellers, the Shares,

including with respect to merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose of any assets, the nature or extent of any liabilities, the prospects of their respective businesses, the effectiveness or the success or profitability of any

operations, or the accuracy or completeness of any confidential information memoranda, documents, projections, forward-looking statements, forecasts, opinions, advice, material, statement, data, or other information (financial or otherwise)

regarding the Sellers, the Blocker or any Acquired Company provided to, or otherwise made available to, Buyer or its Representatives or made available to Buyer and its Representatives in connection with the Transactions, including any “data

rooms,” “virtual data rooms,” management presentations, or in respect of any other matter or thing whatsoever, and (b) any Person providing or not providing any information not specifically required to be provided or disclosed

(a) Subject to the Confidentiality Agreements and applicable Law, prior to the Closing or earlier termination of this

Agreement, the Blocker and the Acquired Companies shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, provide Buyer and its Representatives, upon reasonable advance written notice, with reasonable access during normal business hours to the

information, assets, premises, properties, books (including pro forma Tax Returns and related work papers), Contracts, records and personnel of the Blocker and the Acquired Companies (including furnishing to Buyer copies of such documents and

information as Buyer may reasonably request), for the purposes of consummating the Transactions, planning and preparing for the integration and transition of the businesses of the Acquired Companies following the Closing (including operational,

financial, information technology, human resources and other functional integration and transition planning) and any other reasonable business purpose relating to the Transactions; provided that (i) any such access and activities shall

be conducted in a manner not to unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of the Acquired Companies and (ii) Buyer and its Representatives shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (x) cooperate with the Company and its

Representatives and (y) minimize any disruption to the business. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such access shall be permitted to the extent the Company determines in good faith following consultation with outside counsel

that doing so would reasonably be likely to (A) require the Blocker or any Acquired Company to disclose information that would reasonably be expected to jeopardize protections under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or

similar privilege, or conflict with any confidentiality obligations to which the Blocker or such Acquired Company is bound, (B) violate any agreement to which the Blocker or any Acquired Company is a party or (C) violate any applicable Law

which the Blocker or any Acquired Company is subject to; provided that in any such case, each of the Company and the Blocker shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Buyer with such information in a manner that does not violate

any agreement to which the Blocker or any Acquired Company is a party or any applicable Law or otherwise jeopardize such protection (including, to the extent applicable, entry into a joint defense or common interest agreement, the seeking of a

consent or waiver from any applicable third party or the making of disclosure subject to redaction or on an outside counsel-only basis). Notwithstanding the obligations set forth in this Section 8.1(a), subject to the

proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, the Blocker and the Company may limit the manner of disclosure of such portions of documents or information relating to pricing or other matters that are competitively sensitive if the Company’s

outside antitrust counsel, after consultation with Buyer’s outside antitrust counsel, determines that the exchange of such documents (or portions thereof) or information would reasonably be expected to violate applicable antitrust Law;

provided that no such documents or information shall be withheld from Buyer entirely, and the Blocker and the Company shall instead provide such documents or information to Buyer’s outside counsel or to designated Representatives of

Buyer on an outside counsel-only or “clean team” basis pursuant to the Clean Team Agreement. All requests for such access shall be directed to such Person as the Company may designate in writing from time to time (collectively, the

“Designated Contacts”). Prior to the Closing, except in the Ordinary Course of Business (including pursuant to any existing commercial relationship) and not relating to or referencing the Transactions, without the prior

written consent of the Seller Representative (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which shall be deemed given if the Seller Representative has not objected in

writing within five Business Days following Buyer’s written request therefor), (1) none of Buyer, its Affiliates or their respective Representatives shall contact any employee, contractor, supplier, customer, landlord or other material

business relationship of any Acquired Company, other than the Designated Contacts, and (2) Buyer and its Representatives shall have no right to perform invasive or subsurface investigations of the properties or facilities of the Acquired

Companies; provided, however, that clause (1) shall not restrict or prohibit (w) contacts and communications with the individuals set forth on Schedule 8.1(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedules (so long as the Sellers

are included in such contacts and communications) and members of the Steering Committee for purposes of integration and transition planning conducted in accordance with Section 8.1(b), (x) any calls or meetings with

customers, suppliers or landlords of any Acquired Company that have been coordinated with the Company (such coordination not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (y) contacts or communications made in connection with seeking or

obtaining any consent, approval or clearance of, or responding to any inquiry or request from, any Governmental Body that have been coordinated with the Company (such coordination not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), or

(z) discussions with members of management or other employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary regarding post-Closing employment, compensation, retention, equity or other incentive arrangements.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Company and Buyer shall establish and maintain a steering committee (the “Steering

Committee”) comprising employees of the Acquired Companies who are subject matter experts with respect to the key functional areas of the business of the Acquired Companies and the Blocker as designated by the Company, together with

Representatives of Buyer as designated by Buyer, in each case, as reasonably agreed between the Company and Buyer. Each of the Company and Buyer shall have the right to designate, and from time to time to remove, replace or substitute, its

respective members of (or, in the case of the Company, the employees participating in) the Steering Committee, by written notice to the other Party, and no such designation, removal, replacement or substitution shall require the consent of the other

Party. The Company and Buyer shall convene the Steering Committee on a regular basis commencing no later than 45 days following the Put Option Date, and, unless otherwise agreed, not less frequently than twice per month (in person or, if mutually

agreed, by telephone or video conference), for the purposes of integration, separation and transition planning, business planning and the discussion of material developments in respect of the Blocker and the Acquired Companies, including the

Consultation Obligations, the status of existing Specified Projects, the status of the consents referred to in Section 8.22, the status of the Lease Buy-Out Option or Lease Extension

Option pursuant to Section 8.23 and any material developments in respect of the Legal Proceedings scheduled pursuant to Section 6.16. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this

Section 8.1(b): (i) the Steering Committee shall be advisory only and shall have no authority to direct, control or make decisions with respect to the business or operations of the Blocker or any Acquired Company, and

nothing in this Section 8.1(b) shall give Buyer, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the operations of the Blocker or any Acquired Company prior to the Closing, (ii) all activities of, and

information shared through, the Steering Committee shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreements, applicable Law (including all Antitrust Laws) and such protocols (including clean team arrangements and limitations on the exchange of

competitively sensitive information) as mutually determined by outside antitrust counsel to the Company and

outside antitrust counsel to Buyer, (iii) no Party shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) that would violate, or that its outside

counsel reasonably determines could reasonably be expected to violate, applicable Law and (iv) no failure to establish or convene the Steering Committee in accordance with this Section 8.1(b) shall constitute a failure

of any condition set forth in Article IX or a basis for termination pursuant to Article X except in the case of Willful Breach of this Section 8.1(b) by the Sellers or the Company. For the avoidance of doubt,

from the Put Option Date until the Closing, the Sellers shall continue to control the operations of the Acquired Companies. The Steering Committee shall automatically be dissolved without further action of either Buyer or the Company upon the

earlier to occur of (1) the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1 and (2) the Closing.

(c) For a period of seven years after the Closing, Buyer shall cause the Blocker, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to (i) provide

the Seller Representative and its Representatives, upon reasonable advance written notice and under reasonable circumstances, reasonable access, at the Seller Representative’s expense, under the supervision of the personnel of the Blocker or

the Acquired Companies and in accordance with the reasonable procedures established by Buyer (including a requirement that any third-party Person for whom access is requested enter into a customary access letter), to the appropriate officers, books

and records (including all electronic data related thereto) of the Blocker, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries during the Company’s normal business hours, (ii) permit the Seller Representative and its Representatives to make copies

of any such books and records, (iii) furnish to the Seller Representative and its Representatives any financial and operating data or other information of the Blocker, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as reasonably requested by the

Seller Representative to the extent necessary for the preparation of insurance claims, financial statements, regulatory filings, Tax Returns of the Seller Representative or its Affiliates in respect of periods ending on or prior to the Closing, or

of Buyer and its Affiliates, including the Blocker, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such access shall be permitted to the extent it is determined upon consultation with outside counsel

that doing so would reasonably be expected to (A) require Buyer or any of its Affiliates to disclose information that would reasonably be expected to jeopardize protections under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or similar

privilege, or conflict with any confidentiality obligations to which Buyer or any of its Affiliates is bound, (B) violate any agreement to which Buyer or any of its Affiliates is a party or (C) violate any applicable Law which Buyer or any

of its Affiliates is a party or any applicable Law or otherwise jeopardize such protection (including, to the extent applicable, entry into a joint defense or common interest agreement or the making of disclosure subject to redaction or on an

outside counsel-only basis). Buyer agrees to cause the Blocker and the Acquired Companies to hold all the books and records of the Blocker and the Acquired Companies existing on the Closing Date and not to destroy or dispose of any thereof for a

Governmental Body with respect to the Transactions pursuant to the HSR Act (a “Second Request”) or any other Antitrust Laws or Foreign Investment Laws, such Party will use its reasonable best efforts to respond as promptly as

reasonably practicable and to certify compliance with any such request for information or documentary material. Buyer shall be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of all filing fees required by the HSR Act or any Antitrust Law or Foreign Investment

Law, and each Party shall bear any other costs and expenses, including, any attorney or advisor fees, in connection with its obligations under this Section 8.3.

(b) Buyer shall control and direct the process by which the Parties seek to obtain clearance or the expiration of applicable waiting periods

Party without the prior written consent of the providing Party. Each Party shall permit counsel for the other Parties to review in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other Parties in connection with, any proposed written

communication to any Governmental Body in connection with the Transactions. The Parties agree not to participate, or to permit their Affiliates or advisors to participate, in any pre-arranged substantive

meeting or discussion, either in person or by telephone or video conference, with any Governmental Body in connection with the Transactions unless it consults with the other Parties in advance and, to the extent not prohibited by such Governmental

Body, gives the other Parties the opportunity to attend and participate.

Affiliates to, take any and all steps and actions necessary, proper, or advisable to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Antitrust Law including (i) contesting, defending and appealing any threatened or pending litigation,

claim, suit, action or other proceeding or preliminary or permanent injunction or other Order that would adversely affect the ability of any Party to consummate the Transactions; or (ii) agreeing to take any other action as may be required by a

Governmental Body in order to (A) obtain all necessary consents, approvals and authorizations by the Extended Termination Date, (B) avoid the entry of, or to have vacated, lifted, dissolved, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment,

injunction or other Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect in any Legal Proceeding and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the Transactions, or (C) effect the expiration or termination of any

waiting period, which would otherwise have the effect of preventing the Closing by the Extended Termination Date. Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that its and its

Affiliates’ obligations under this Section 8.3 include proposing, negotiating, offering to commit to and effect (and if such offer is accepted, committing to and effecting), by order, consent decree, hold separate

orders or otherwise, (i) the sale, divestiture, license, or other disposition of any assets, properties, products, product lines, services, businesses or rights of Buyer or its Affiliates or, effective as of the Closing, the Company or the

Company Subsidiaries or any interest or interests therein, (ii) terminating, amending or modifying any Contract or other business relationship of Buyer or its Affiliates or, effective as of the Closing, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries

and (iii) taking or committing to take any action with respect to any of the assets, properties, products, product lines, services or businesses of Buyer or its Affiliates, or effective as of the Closing, the Company or the Company Subsidiaries

or any interest or interests therein, in each case, in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any Order in any Legal Proceeding, or any impediment under any Antitrust Law or any other Law, which would otherwise have the effect

of preventing the consummation of the Transactions by the Extended Termination Date; provided that any action contemplated by the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) shall be conditioned upon (and shall not be completed prior to) the

consummation of the Transactions. At the request of Buyer, the Company shall fully cooperate and participate with respect to any Buyer action or decision in connection with this Section 8.3, including by agreeing to take

any action, or forego any action, with respect to the Company or the Company Subsidiaries; provided that the Sellers’ written consent is obtained for any actions that may be required prior to consummation of the Transactions (such consent not

to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(d) Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, (x) in respect of

Fund IX only, take any action (including acquiring, entering into any agreement to acquire (by merger, consolidation, acquisition of equity interests or assets, joint venture or otherwise) or otherwise agreeing to acquire, any Person), and

(y) in respect of Buyer and each of its Affiliates other than Fund IX, acquire or enter into any agreement to acquire (by merger, consolidation, acquisition of equity interests or assets, joint venture or otherwise) any Person that manufactures

food packaging or other containers that compete directly with the Company’s metal can or metal aerosol products in the same geographic area, in each case, if such action, acquisition or the entering into such

agreement could reasonably be expected to (i) impose any material delay in the obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, any applicable approval from a Governmental

Body, permit or Order necessary to consummate the Transactions or the expiration or termination of any waiting period under applicable Law; (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Body entering an Order prohibiting the

consummation of the Transactions or materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such Order on appeal or otherwise; (iii) impose any material delay or impede the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under

the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws or (iv) otherwise materially delay or prevent the consummation of the Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Buyer or any of its Affiliates will be deemed to have breached this

Section 8.3(d), as a result of such Person acquiring or entering into any agreement to acquire any Person unless such acquisition or entrance into such agreement to acquire such Person results in any Party being required to

make a filing or to seek any approval that is required by any Governmental Body in connection with the Transactions and such filing or approval would have delayed the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article IX

(other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions at such time) past March 15, 2028.

8.4 Further Assurances.Subject to, and not in limitation of, Section 8.2, until the Closing or earlier

termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article X, each of Buyer, the Sellers, the Blocker and the Company shall use (and the Company shall cause each of the Company Subsidiaries to use) its reasonable best efforts to take all

Section 8.3) or required by applicable Law or any Governmental Body; (ii) any action or omission taken with the consent of, or at the request of, the Company; (iii) the exercise or enforcement by Buyer of any of

its rights, or the pursuit of any of its remedies, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, including the right to withhold its consent in respect of any matter requiring Buyer’s consent hereunder; or (iv) the operation of

the business of Buyer and its Affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

(b) Each Seller shall (A) give Buyer reasonably prompt written notice of (1) any

Legal Proceeding or Order brought, or threatened in writing to be brought, by any Person in respect of or in connection with the Transactions or (2) the occurrence of any other event that would reasonably be expected to prevent, materially

impair or materially delay the Transactions; and (B) otherwise keep Buyer reasonably informed of the matters set forth on Schedule 8.8(b).

8.9 Employee Matters.

(a) For a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing (or for such shorter period of time during which a Continuing Employee

remains employed with the Acquired Companies or an Affiliate), to the extent permitted under applicable Law, Buyer shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each employee of any of the Acquired Companies (each, a “Continuing

Employee”), (i) annual base salary or base wages, as applicable, and target short-term incentive compensation opportunities, in each case, that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the annual base salary or base wages, as

applicable, and target short-term incentive compensation opportunities provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Put Option Date, (ii) employee health and welfare benefits, retirement benefits, and vacation benefits (but

excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, severance benefits) that are (x) substantially similar in the aggregate to those provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing, or (y) no less favorable than those provided to

similarly situated employees of Buyer as of the Closing and (iii) severance and termination payments and benefits that are no less favorable than the severance and termination payments and benefits that the Continuing Employee would be entitled

to receive upon a termination of employment immediately prior to the Closing. For purposes of eligibility, vesting, and level of benefits (other than benefit accrual under defined benefit plans or equity or equity-based plans or long-term incentive

arrangements) under the employee benefit plans of Buyer in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate following the Closing Date (the “Buyer Plans”), to the extent permitted under applicable Law, Buyer shall credit

each Continuing Employee with his or her service with any Acquired Company and any predecessor entities prior to the Closing in accordance with the foregoing sentence, except to the extent such credit would result in the duplication of benefits for

the same period of service or such service was not recognized under an analogous Company Benefit Plan prior to the Closing.

(b) With

respect to each Buyer Plan, except as otherwise required under applicable Law, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Continuing Employee to be eligible to participate as promptly as practicable, without any waiting period, in

any and all such Buyer Plans, and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause to be waived under any applicable Buyer Plan any pre-existing condition limitations, actively-at-work requirements, exclusions and waiting periods to the extent waived or not applicable under, or previously satisfied by such Continuing Employee and his or her

eligible covered dependent under, the relevant Company Benefit Plan, and (ii) for the year in which a Continuing Employee transitions to the applicable Buyer Plans, cause the Continuing Employees and any eligible covered dependent to be given

credit under the applicable Buyer Plan for amounts paid prior to the date on which such Continuing Employees commence participation in such Buyer Plan for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments, co-insurance and out-of-pocket maximums.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and unless otherwise required under applicable Law, the terms and conditions of

employment for any Continuing Employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement shall be governed by the applicable collective bargaining agreement until the expiration, modification or termination of such collective bargaining agreement in

accordance with its terms or applicable Law.

(d) The Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, (i) comply in all material

respects with all applicable Laws relating to their obligations to notify and consult with, obtain the authorization or approval of, or request the advice of, any works councils, economic and social committees, labor unions, associations or other

employee representative bodies and relevant employees of any Acquired Company or their Representatives, in each case, prior to the Closing as required in connection with the Transactions (the “Consultation Obligations”), (ii)

provide Buyer and its Affiliates with any required information as reasonably requested in respect of, or for the purpose of, such information or consultation process if required under applicable Law, (iii) keep Buyer and its Affiliates informed

of the status of such information and consultation process and any material developments if required under applicable Law, including, to the extent that any written documents, presentations or other materials are to be provided to any works council,

economic and social committee, labor union, association or other employee representative body; provided that the Sellers shall retain control over such information and consultation process and (iv) if required under applicable Law,

provide such materials to Buyer and its Affiliates in advance and permit Buyer and its Affiliates a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such materials before they are presented or provided to the works council, economic and social

committee, labor union, association or other employee representative body. Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with the Sellers in connection with the Consultation Obligations, including, upon receiving a written request from the Sellers, providing

without unreasonable delay any information regarding Buyer’s post-Closing intentions, plans or proposals with respect to the Acquired Companies and their employees that is reasonably required under applicable Law. The Sellers shall not be

responsible for any delay, failure or non-compliance to the extent caused by Buyer’s material failure to provide such information or cooperation. Without limiting the foregoing, and subject in all

respects to the terms of this Agreement, from the Put Option Date until the Closing, the Sellers shall, and shall cause the Company and the other Acquired Companies to, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any information,

consultation, advice or negotiation process conducted with any works council, economic and social committee, labor union or other employee representative body in connection with the Specified Projects takes into account the Transactions to the

extent required under applicable Law.

(e) As a condition to the obligations of Buyer or any of its Affiliates under this

Section 8.9, each Seller agrees that it shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective service providers to use commercially reasonable efforts to, provide Buyer, its Affiliates and their respective service

providers with access to all information reasonably requested by Buyer and its service providers to allow Buyer to comply with the provisions of this Section 8.9, in each case, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

(f) The provisions contained in this Section 8.9 shall not (i) be treated as an establishment, amendment

or other modification of any Company Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement, (ii) limit the right of Buyer to terminate the employment of any employee at any time and for any reason or (iii) create any

third party rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever in any employee of any Acquired Company (or any beneficiaries or dependents thereof) or any other Person that is not a Party.

8.10 Buyer’s Obligations in Respect of Financing.

(a) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Sellers, the Seller Representative, the Company and their respective Affiliates have no

responsibility for any financing that Buyer may raise in connection with the Transactions, except as expressly provided herein.

(b) Buyer

shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to obtain the Financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments at or prior to the Closing Date, including to

(i) maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter, (ii) negotiate and enter into definitive financing agreements (the “Definitive Debt Documents”) with respect to the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions set forth

therein or terms and conditions otherwise not less favorable to Buyer than the terms and conditions (including the “market flex” provisions) contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (as determined by Buyer in its reasonable discretion),

(iii) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Buyer contained in the Financing Commitments within their control, including the payment of any commitment, engagement, or placement fees required as a condition to the Financing,

(iv) consummate the Financing at or prior to the Closing Date and (v) enforce its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is not a condition to the Closing under this Agreement, nor to the

consummation of the Transactions, for Buyer to obtain the Financing or any Replacement Financing.

copies of all material agreements and other documents, in each case, reasonably requested by the Company related to the Debt Financing, and shall keep the Company reasonably informed on a current basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its

efforts to obtain the Debt Financing, including any material developments in respect of the process relating thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall provide the Company prompt written notice (i) of any expiration

or termination of, or any breach, default or violation by any party to the Commitment Letters or definitive agreements related to the Financing of which Buyer becomes aware, (ii) of the receipt of any written notice or other written

communication from any Debt Financing Source with respect to any (x) actual or potential breach, default, violation, termination or repudiation by any party to the Commitment Letters or the Definitive Debt Documents or (y) material dispute

or disagreement between or among any parties to the Commitment Letters or the Definitive Debt Documents with respect to the obligation to fund the Financing or the amount of the Financing to be funded at the Closing (excluding ordinary course

negotiations), and (iii) if at any time for any reason Buyer believes in good faith that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Financing Commitments or the Definitive

Debt Documents. As soon as reasonably practicable, Buyer shall provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any circumstance referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence.

(d) Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall not (and with respect to the Equity Commitment Letter, shall cause Fund IX VL Holdings not to), without

the prior written consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), agree to, or permit, any amendment, restatement, amendment and restatement, replacement, supplement, or other modification of, or waiver or consent

under, the Commitment Letters or other documentation relating to the Financing which would (i) reasonably be expected to (A) adversely affect Buyer’s

ability to timely consummate the Transactions or (B) make the timely funding of the Financing, or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing less likely to occur in any

material respect, (ii) reduce the aggregate amount of the Financing to less than the Required Amount (taking into account any increase to the Equity Financing), (iii) impose new or additional conditions or expand upon (or amend or modify in any

manner adverse to the interests of the Company) the conditions precedent to the Financing as set forth in the Commitment Letters in a manner that would reasonably be expected to delay or prevent the Closing, (iv) adversely affect the ability of

Buyer to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Financing Commitments, the Fee Letters or any Definitive Debt Document or (v) reasonably be expected to prevent, delay, impede or impair the Closing. Buyer shall have the right

from time to time to amend, supplement, replace, substitute, terminate or otherwise modify or waive its rights under the Debt Commitment Letter (including amendments and modifications contemplated by the “flex” provisions), to add and

appoint additional arrangers, bookrunners, underwriters, agents, lenders and similar entities, to provide for the assignment and reallocation of a portion of the financing commitments contained therein and to grant customary approval rights to such

additional arrangers and other entities in connection with such appointments, so long as such modification does not result in any of the outcomes specified in the immediately preceding sentence. For purposes of this

Section 8.10(d), Section 8.11, the definitions of “Debt Commitment Letter,” “Equity Commitment Letter,” “Commitment Letters,” “Debt Financing

Commitments,” “Equity Financing Commitment,” “Financing Commitments,” “Debt Financing,” “Equity Financing,” and “Financing” shall include the Financing Commitments or documents

related thereto as permitted to be amended, amended and restated, replaced, supplemented, modified, waived or consented to by this Section 8.10(d). Buyer shall promptly deliver to the Company copies of any such amendment,

restatement, amendment and restatement, replacement, supplement, modification, waiver or consent. Further, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Financing (or any Replacement Financing) has not been obtained, Buyer shall continue to be obligated to

consummate the Transactions subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Sections 9.1 and 9.2.

(e) If any of the Debt Financing or Debt Financing Commitments expire or are terminated or become unavailable prior to the Closing, in whole

or in part, for any reason, Buyer shall (i) promptly notify the Company of such expiration, termination, or unavailability and the reasons therefor and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts promptly to arrange for alternative debt financing

(“Replacement Financing”) (which, when added with the Equity Financing, shall be sufficient to pay the Required Amount from other debt financing sources and shall not, without the prior consent of the Company, (A) include any

conditions to such Replacement Financing that are more onerous than or in addition to the conditions set forth in the Commitment Letters in effect on the Put Option Date or (B) otherwise be on terms and conditions that are materially less

favorable to Buyer than the terms and conditions of the Commitment Letters in effect on the Put Option Date) to replace the financing contemplated by such expired, terminated, or unavailable commitments or arrangements. Buyer shall deliver to the

Company true, correct and complete copies of all Contracts or other arrangements pursuant to which any alternative source shall have committed to provide any portion of the Replacement Financing (provided that any fee letters in connection

therewith may be redacted in a manner consistent with the Fee Letters provided as of the Put Option Date). In the event that Replacement Financing is obtained in accordance with this Section 8.10(e), the definitions of

“Debt Commitment Letter,” “Equity Commitment Letter,” “Commitment Letters,” “Debt Financing Commitments,” “Equity Financing Commitment,” “Financing Commitments,” “Debt

Financing,” “Equity Financing” and “Financing” shall include

the commitments in respect of the Replacement Financing or the documents related thereto, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) nothing in this

Section 8.10(e) shall require, and in no event shall the “reasonable best efforts” of Buyer be deemed or construed to require, Buyer to (1) waive any term or condition of this Agreement, (2) pay any

fees in excess of those contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter as in effect on the Put Option Date (taking into account the “market flex” provisions thereof) (whether to secure a waiver of any conditions contained therein or

otherwise) or (3) seek or accept any additional equity financing or seek or accept debt financing from any Person that is not acceptable to Buyer in its sole discretion and (y) compliance by Buyer with the provisions of this

Section 8.10(e) shall not relieve Buyer of its obligation to consummate the Transactions whether or not the Financing is available.

respective Affiliates and their respective partners, officers, managers, directors, employees and other Representatives or information provided by or on behalf of the Sellers or the Acquired Companies for use in connection with the Debt Financing.

anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Taxes, costs or expenses to the extent arising out of (including any Taxes imposed on the Blocker or any Acquired Company as a result of) any such election shall be borne solely by Buyer and its

reimburse Buyer for the Sellers’ share of any Transfer Taxes paid by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (except to the extent such Transfer Taxes were taken into account as Company Transaction Expenses). The Parties shall, and shall cause their

respective Affiliates to, cooperate to timely prepare and file any Tax Returns or other filings relating to Transfer Taxes, including any claim for exemption or exclusion from the application or imposition of any Transfer Taxes.

(c) Termination of Tax Sharing Agreements. The Company shall, and shall cause the Blocker and each of the Acquired Companies to,

non-U.S. Law), the Parties and their respective Affiliates shall treat any and all payments made pursuant to Section 3.3 or this Section 8.12 as an

adjustment to the Estimated Consideration for all Tax purposes, and no Party shall take any position inconsistent with such treatment on any Tax Return or in any audit, examination or other administrative or judicial proceeding.

(e) French IFU Filings. Prior to the Closing, the Sellers shall cause each Acquired Company organized in France to prepare and duly

file with the applicable Taxing Authority each annual Imprimé Fiscal Unique informational filing (Form 2561) (each, an “IFU Form”) that was required to be filed, but was not previously filed, or that requires correction, in

respect of any dividend or interest payment made by such Acquired Company in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, it being understood that, for each relevant calendar year, one IFU Form shall be filed by each such Acquired Company reporting all amounts

the competent Tax court or otherwise make any material decision or determination with respect to such Tax Proceeding (or portion thereof) without the prior written consent of Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or

delayed); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, if any such Tax Proceeding (or portion thereof) arising from the items set forth in Schedule 8.12(f)(i) cannot be bifurcated under applicable local Law or is not in

8.13 R&W Insurance Policy.

(a) At or prior to the Closing, Buyer or any of its Affiliates may, at its election, obtain a buyer-side representations and warranties

insurance policy in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions (such policy, an “R&W Insurance Policy”): (i) all premiums, underwriting fees, brokers’ commissions, due diligence fees, taxes and other similar

costs and expenses due and payable under such R&W Insurance Policy shall be borne solely by Buyer or

100

such Affiliate (including the Company and any of the Company Subsidiaries after the Closing), (ii) such R&W Insurance Policy shall not provide for any “seller retention” (as such

phrase is commonly used in the representations and warranties insurance policy industry), such that the full “retention” (as such phrase is commonly used in the representations and warranties insurance policy industry) will be borne

solely by Buyer and (iii) Buyer shall cause such R&W Insurance Policy to at all times include an express waiver by the insurer of any rights to bring claims of subrogation (except in the case of Fraud with respect to the making of the

Express Representations) against the Sellers, and Buyer shall provide the Seller Representative, reasonably in advance of binding the R&W Insurance Policy, the final version of the R&W Insurance Policy. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the

obtaining of any R&W Insurance Policy is not a condition to the Closing and Buyer shall remain obligated, subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article IX, to consummate the Transactions, even if an

R&W Insurance Policy is not obtained at or prior to the Closing. In addition, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of any R&W Insurance Policy shall not impede or delay the Closing. Buyer, its Affiliates, and their respective

Representatives shall not amend, waive or modify (x) the waiver of subrogation right contained in the R&W Insurance Policy or (y) any other provision of the R&W Insurance Policy in a manner materially adverse to the Sellers, in

each case, without the express written consent of the Seller Representative. At the request of Buyer, the Blocker, the Acquired Companies and the Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with, and make reasonably available

(upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours) their respective Representatives to assist with, Buyer (and any Affiliate thereof) in connection with the obtaining, binding and causing the issuance of any R&W Insurance Policy, and the

removal of any exclusions thereunder, including by making available due diligence material reasonably requested by Buyer (or an Affiliate thereof); provided that, the Sellers, the Blocker, the Acquired Companies and each of their Affiliates

shall not be required to provide due diligence materials where doing so would, upon advice of counsel, (A) cause a violation or breach of or default under any Contract to which the Blocker or any Acquired Company is a party, (B) result in

a loss of attorney-client or legal privilege to the Blocker or any Acquired Company, (C) constitute a violation of any applicable Law or (D) cause any competitive harm to any Acquired Company (it being agreed that any such competitive

materials shall be made available to the insurers of the R&W Insurance Policy and their Representatives directly by the Blocker or any Acquired Company, as applicable); provided, further, that in any such case, each of the Sellers,

the Blocker and the Acquired Companies shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a reasonably detailed description of the information not provided that enables the insurers or their Representatives to evaluate such information without

the consequence described in clause (A), (B), (C) or (D). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a breach of the obligation of the Blocker, the Acquired Companies and the Sellers under this Section 8.13 shall not be grounds for

Buyer to not consummate the Transactions pursuant to Section 9.2(g) or otherwise.

(b) From the Put Option Date

until the earlier of the Closing and the termination of this Agreement, the Sellers and the Company shall, and shall cause the other Acquired Companies and their respective Representatives to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with

Buyer and its Representatives in connection with Buyer’s efforts to remove, narrow or otherwise resolve any exclusion from coverage under, or any heightened conditions to coverage identified by the insurer(s) in connection with, the R&W

Insurance Policy, including by (A) furnishing such reasonably available information and documentation regarding the Acquired Companies as Buyer or such insurer(s) may reasonably request (including by making such

101

information available in the electronic data room), (B) making appropriate members of management of the Acquired Companies reasonably available to participate in a reasonable number (but no more

than three) of underwriting and diligence calls at reasonable times and upon reasonable advance notice, and (C) facilitating such supplemental due diligence as such insurer(s) may reasonably require; provided that (i) nothing in

this Section 8.13(b) shall require any Seller or any Acquired Company to furnish any information the disclosure of which would, upon the advice of outside counsel, jeopardize any legal privilege or violate applicable Law or

any confidentiality obligation owing to a third party (in which case the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to make alternative arrangements to permit disclosure, including pursuant to customary clean-team or counsel-only arrangements), (ii) each

Seller’s and the Acquired Companies’ obligations pursuant to this Section 8.13(b) shall remain in all respects subject to Section 8.1(a), (iii) no Seller or Acquired Company makes any

representation or warranty as to, or shall have any liability for, the removal or resolution of any such exclusion or the availability or scope of coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy and (iv) no information provided or disclosed

pursuant to this Section 8.13(b) shall be deemed to expand any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement, and no Seller or Acquired Company makes any representation or warranty as to, or shall have

any liability for, the accuracy of such information (except in the case of Fraud).

8.14 Company Disclosure Schedules.The Company

may, at its option, include in the Company Disclosure Schedules items that are not material in order to avoid any misunderstanding, and such inclusion, or any references to dollar amounts, shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgment or

representation that such items are material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms or any other terms defined in Article I (and, in particular, the inclusion of any item in the Company

Disclosure Schedules shall not, in and of itself, be a basis for taking such item into account in determining whether there has been a Material Adverse Effect). Information disclosed in any Company Disclosure Schedule shall constitute a disclosure

for all purposes under this Agreement solely to the extent it is reasonably apparent on the face of such items that the information is relevant for such other purposes, notwithstanding any reference to a specific section, and all such information

shall be deemed to qualify such sections. The disclosure of any matter or item in any Company Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that any such matter is required to be disclosed.

8.15 Section 280G.To the extent that any “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of

Section 280G(c) of the Code and the regulations thereunder) has the right to receive or retain any payments or benefits that, separately or in the aggregate, constitute “parachute payments” (within the meaning of

Section 280G(b)(2)(A) of the Code and the regulations thereunder), then the Company will (i) solicit from each such “disqualified individual” a waiver of such disqualified individual’s rights to some or all of such

payments or benefits (the “Waived 280G Benefits”) so that any remaining payments or benefits payable to, or retained by, such disqualified individual shall not be deemed to be “excess parachute payments” (within the

meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder), and (ii) with respect to each “disqualified individual” who agrees to the waiver described in clause (i), submit to a vote of holders of the equity interests

of the Company entitled to vote on such matters, the right of any such “disqualified individual” to receive the Waived 280G Benefits (the process described in clauses (i) and (ii), the “Cleansing

Vote”). Solely in the event Buyer provides to the Company, no less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Closing, a written description (including applicable

102

value for purposes of Section 280G of the Code) of any arrangements that have, or will be, entered into between Buyer and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and a disqualified individual, on

the other hand (“Buyer Arrangements”), the Company shall include such Buyer Arrangements in the Cleansing Vote. The Parties acknowledge that the Company cannot compel any “disqualified individual” to waive any existing

rights under a contract with the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries and the Company shall not be deemed in breach of this Section 8.15 with respect to any disqualified individual who refuses to waive any such right.

The Company shall provide Buyer and its counsel with a copy of calculations, the waiver agreement, the disclosure statement and the equityholder consent contemplated by this Section 8.15 no less than ten Business Days prior

to the Closing or the delivery of any documentation to a “disqualified individual” or an equityholder, and, if Buyer provides comments within five Business Days of receiving such documentation, the Company shall in good faith incorporate

any reasonable changes requested by Buyer or its counsel. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide to Buyer any executed waivers and consents received in connection with the vote of the equityholders and any documentation reasonably requested

by Buyer which demonstrates that such vote of the equityholders was conducted in a manner which satisfies Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

8.16 Acknowledgments by Buyer.

(a) Buyer acknowledges, on its own behalf and on behalf of each of its Affiliates, that it has conducted an independent investigation and

verification of the business, financial condition, results of operations, assets, liabilities, properties, contracts and prospects of the Blocker and the Acquired Companies, and, in making its determination to proceed with the Transactions, Buyer

has relied on the results of its own independent investigation and verification and on the Express Representations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer acknowledges and agrees, on each of its own behalf and on behalf of its

Affiliates, that neither the Blocker, the Acquired Companies, nor any other Person (including the Sellers), has made, is making or is authorized to make, any warranty or representation (whether in written, electronic or oral form), express or

implied, as to (i) the accuracy or completeness of any information or (ii) the quality, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or condition of the Blocker, the Acquired Companies’ business, operations, assets,

liabilities, prospects or any portion thereof, except, in each case, solely to the extent expressly set forth in the Express Representations.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 8.16 shall limit (i) claims for Fraud, (ii) claims

under the R&W Insurance Policy or (iii) any Party’s rights or remedies under this Agreement (including in respect of the Express Representations) or any other Transaction Document.

Affiliates, that the covenants and agreements contained in this Section 8.16 (i) require performance after the Closing to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law and will survive the Closing until the expiration of

the applicable statute of limitations; and (ii) are an integral part of the Transactions and that, without these agreements set forth in this Section 8.16, the Blocker and the Acquired Companies would not enter into

this Agreement.

8.17 Pre-Closing Sharing of Data.The Parties

acknowledge and agree that the Personal Information disclosed or made available by the Sellers, the Blocker or the Acquired Companies to Buyer in connection with this Agreement (the “Transaction Personal Information”) is necessary

for the purposes of enabling Buyer to determine if Buyer shall proceed with the Transactions. Buyer shall, at all times, comply with Privacy Laws and not use, disclose or otherwise Process the Transaction Personal Information for any purposes other

than those related to the performance of this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions, or any other similar purposes or as required or permitted by Law. Buyer shall take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect the Transaction Personal

Information by applying a standard of care at least as protective of such information as Buyer’s current policies, practices, or procedures applicable to Personal Information, but in any event by applying at least a reasonable standard of

care. If the Transactions do not proceed, Buyer shall return to the Acquired Companies or, at the Acquired Companies’ request, securely destroy the Transaction Personal Information within 60 calendar days and upon the Seller

Representative’s written request, provide written confirmation of the destruction of the Transaction Personal Information.

8.18

Litigation Support.In the event that and for so long as the Sellers or any of their Affiliates or Buyer or any of its Affiliates is prosecuting, contesting or defending any Legal Proceeding or claim by or against a third party or otherwise

incident, action, failure to act, or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date, Buyer and the Sellers, as applicable, shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates (and its and their officers and employees) to, reasonably cooperate in good

faith with Buyer and the Sellers, as applicable, and its counsel in such prosecution, contest or defense, including making reasonably available its personnel, and providing such testimony and access to its books and records as shall be reasonably

necessary in connection with such prosecution, contest or defense upon reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours, all at the sole cost and expense of the requesting party; provided that such cooperation does not interfere

with normal business operations; provided, further, that each party shall treat all such information as confidential and hereby agrees not to use such information for any purpose other than in connection with such Legal Proceeding,

other investigation, charge, claim or demand by a third party and that to the extent production of such information is required in such Legal Proceeding, it is done on an attorneys’ eyes-only basis; and provided, further, that no

party shall be obliged to disclose or provide access to any documents, records or information subject to attorney-client privilege or attorney work-product protection. Requests for support must be made with reasonable notice and be limited to

regular business hours. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer and the Sellers acknowledge and agree that this Section 8.18 shall not apply with respect to any Legal Proceeding with respect to which Buyer or its Affiliates

are adverse to the Sellers or their respective Affiliates.

documentation (if any) as reasonably required by the trustee or collateral agent under the Senior Secured Notes Indentures, in each case, in order to effect the redemption or satisfaction and discharge of the Senior Secured Notes Indentures;

provided that the Company shall provide to Buyer for Buyer’s review drafts of such notices and other documents no later than five Business Days prior to the date such documents are required to be delivered in order to effect a

redemption or satisfaction and discharge of the applicable Senior Secured Notes Indentures as required by this Agreement (or, in each case, such shorter period as Buyer may agree); provided, further, that if Buyer does not deliver

written comments on such drafts at least two Business Days prior to the date such documents are required to be delivered, such documents shall be deemed accepted by Buyer in the form provided by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the

Company shall not be required to give a notice of redemption that is not conditional on the Closing.

(b) Buyer shall, at or prior to the

Closing, deposit or cause to be deposited with the applicable trustee(s) under the Senior Secured Notes Indentures, or otherwise provide or cause to be provided to the Company, funds sufficient to pay in full the applicable redemption price of the

owner’s title insurance policy to be issued by a title company selected by Buyer in its discretion (the “Title Company”), in each case: (A) having an effective date as of the Closing Date, (B) in amount, form and

substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, (C) insuring that the applicable Acquired Company has good and marketable fee simple title to the Owned Real Property, free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens, and (D) including such

form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Title Company prior to the Closing: (i) an owner’s affidavit and gap indemnity from the Acquired Company owning title to the Owned Real Property; (ii) No Change to Survey Affidavit from

the Acquired Company owning title to the Owned Real Property, if applicable; and (iii) financial information and information regarding ongoing construction, if applicable. Buyer shall have the right to have a surveyor survey the Owned Real

shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that Buyer and its Affiliates may, without such consent, waive any condition to the obligations of any party under the Project Vulcan Transaction Agreement if and to the

extent such waiver facilitates the consummation of the Project Vulcan Closing and does not reduce the amount, or adversely change the form, timing or conditionality, of the equity investment or business contribution contemplated thereby. Buyer

shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, maintain the Project Vulcan Transaction Documents in full force and use reasonable best efforts to effect and enforce its and

106

Company, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection therewith), and shall keep Buyer reasonably informed of the status thereof; provided that (i) obtaining any such consents,

filings, notices, approvals, or waivers shall not be deemed to be conditions to the obligations of the Parties to consummate the Transactions and (ii) none of the Sellers, the Blocker or any Acquired Company shall be required to pay any fees

hand, and any Seller or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies and the Blocker), on the other hand, in each case as set forth on Schedule 8.24 of the Company Disclosure Schedules.

Blocker or any Acquired Company shall be waived, forgiven, discounted or released, (ii) all Taxes and other liabilities incurred by the Blocker or any Acquired Company in connection with such settlement or elimination shall be for the account

of the Sellers and, to the extent not reimbursed in cash prior to the Closing, shall constitute Leakage, and (iii) any amounts paid by the Blocker or any Acquired Company to any Seller or any of its Affiliates pursuant to this

granted thereunder) to be terminated without any cost, Tax, liability or continuing obligation to Buyer, the Blocker or any Acquired Company.

Project Expenses, or (b) to suspend, wind down or terminate any or all of the Scheduled Specified Projects, in whole or in part, in which case (i) no Specified Project Termination Costs shall constitute Unapproved Specified Project

Expenses or Leakage or be taken into account in determining whether the Specified Project Cap has been exceeded and (ii) no such suspension, wind-down or termination, and no failure to complete any Scheduled Specified Project or to realize any

anticipated savings or other benefits thereof, shall constitute a breach of this Agreement; provided that the Company shall, and shall cause the other Acquired Companies to, use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the Specified

Project Termination Costs in connection with any such suspension, wind-down or termination contemplated in clause (b).

8.27

such Buyer Joinder. Upon such accession, (a) all references in this Agreement to “Buyer” shall be read as references to Silgan Metal Packaging LLC and MIHBV, acting jointly and severally, (b) MIHBV shall be deemed to make the

representations and warranties set forth in Article VII as of the date of the Buyer Joinder and as of the Closing Date, mutatis mutandis, and (c) MIHBV shall acquire the Shares and perform the obligations of Buyer at Closing, with

to this Section 10.1(b)(i) shall not be available to (A) the Company if any of the Sellers, the Blocker or the Company is in breach in any material respect of any of their respective obligations hereunder

and such breach has resulted in the Closing not having been effected as of the Termination Date, or (B) Buyer if Buyer is in breach in any material respect of any of its obligations hereunder and such breach has resulted in the Closing not

having been effected as of the Termination Date; or

112

(ii) there shall be in effect a final

non-appealable Order of a Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions; provided, however, that the right to

terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(b)(ii) shall not be available to a Party if such Order was primarily due to the failure of such Party to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement;

(c) by the Company, by written notice to Buyer, if there shall have been a breach by Buyer of any of its representations, warranties,

covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach would result in the failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 9.3 and in any such case such breach shall be incapable of being

cured or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured prior to the earlier of (i) thirty (30) Business Days after providing written notice of such breach to Buyer and (ii) the applicable Termination Date; provided that the

Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(c) if the Sellers, the Blocker or the Company are then in breach of this Agreement and such breach would result in the failure of

any of the conditions set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2;

(d) by the Company, by

written notice to Buyer, if (i) all of the conditions in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 have been satisfied or waived (other than those that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), (ii) the Sellers have

confirmed by written notice to Buyer that the Sellers, the Blocker and the Company are ready, willing, and able to consummate the Transactions, and (iii) Buyer fails to consummate the Transactions within two (2) Business Days following the

date the Closing is required to occur in accordance with Section 2.2;

(e) by Buyer, by written notice to the

Company, if there shall have been a breach by the Sellers, the Blocker or the Company of any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach would result in the failure to satisfy

(30) Business Days after providing written notice of such breach to the Company and (ii) the applicable Termination Date; provided that Buyer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this

Section 10.1(e) if Buyer is then in breach of this Agreement and such breach would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.3;

(f) by Buyer or the Company, by written notice to the other Party, if the Project Vulcan Transaction Agreement shall have been validly

terminated in accordance with its terms.

In the event of any termination by any Party pursuant to Section 10.1

hereof, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other Party or Parties, which written notice shall specify the provision or provisions hereof pursuant to which such termination is being effected, and this Agreement shall terminate

(subject to the provisions of Section 10.2), and the Transactions shall be abandoned, without further action by any Party. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, the right to terminate this Agreement

under Section 10.1 shall not be available to a Party if such Party is then in material breach of its obligations hereunder and such breach has been the primary cause of the failure to satisfy any condition to the

obligations of the Parties hereunder.

113

10.2 Effect of Termination. In the event that this Agreement is validly terminated in

accordance with Section 10.1, this Agreement shall immediately become null and void and the Parties shall be relieved of their duties and obligations arising under this Agreement after the date of such termination and such

termination shall be without liability to any Party; provided that (a) no such termination shall relieve any Party from liability for any Fraud or any Willful Breach prior to the effective date of termination, as applicable, and the

damages recoverable by the non-breaching party shall include all attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by such party in connection with the Transactions, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable Order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or a written settlement agreement entered into between the Parties; provided that (i) in no event, other than in the case of Fraud,

shall the aggregate liability of Buyer for any breach of this Agreement (including Willful Breach) prior to the Closing exceed an amount equal to $100,000,000 plus the Company Enforcement Expenses (if applicable and subject to the Enforcement Cap)

and any amounts payable under Section 8.11(d) (such amount, the “Buyer Damages Cap”), and (ii) in no event, other than in the case of Fraud, shall the aggregate liability of the Company, the Blocker

and the Sellers for any breach of this Agreement (including Willful Breach) prior to the Closing exceed an amount equal to $100,000,000 plus the Buyer Enforcement Expenses (if applicable and subject to the Enforcement Cap) (such amount, the

“Seller Damages Cap”), and (b) the Confidentiality Agreements and the provisions of Section 8.5, Section 8.7, this Section 10.2,

Section 10.3 and Article XI (and any related definitional provisions set forth in Article I) shall survive any such termination and remain valid and binding obligations of each of the Parties. In no event

shall the Sellers, the Company, the Blocker or any other Persons be entitled to receive (I) both (x) the applicable Buyer Termination Fee and (y) monetary damages in respect of any breach of this Agreement by Buyer (subject to the Buyer

Damages Cap) or (II) both the Buyer Voyage Termination Fee and the Buyer Vulcan Termination Fee.

10.3 Fees and Expenses Following

Termination.

(a) If this Agreement is terminated:

(i) (A) by the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(c) or Section 10.1(d) or

(B) by the Company or Buyer pursuant to Section 10.1(b) or Section 10.1(f) if at the time of, or prior to, such termination, the Company would have been entitled to terminate this Agreement

pursuant to Section 10.1(c) or Section 10.1(d), then Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Company an amount equal to $40,000,000 (such payment, the “Buyer Voyage Termination

Fee”); or

(ii) (A) by Buyer or the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(f), other than

where, at the time the Project Vulcan Transaction Agreement was terminated, any condition set forth in Section 9.1(a) or Section 9.1(b) was not satisfied or waived and is incapable of being

satisfied on or prior to the Termination Date, or (B) by Buyer or the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(b)(i) if, and only if, at such time, (x) the condition set forth in Section 9.1(c)

has not been satisfied and (y) each of the conditions set forth in Section 9.1

114

and Section 9.2 has been satisfied or waived or remains capable of being satisfied on or prior to the Termination Date (other than

Section 9.1(c) and those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), then, subject to the terms of the final paragraph of this Section 10.3(a), Buyer shall pay, or cause to

be paid, to the Company an amount equal to $75,000,000 (such payment, the “Buyer Vulcan Termination Fee” and together with the Buyer Voyage Termination Fee, the “Buyer Termination Fees” and each, a

“Buyer Termination Fee”).

Such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or

accounts designated by the Seller Representative within two (2) Business Days of Buyer’s receipt of the notice of such termination; provided that in no event shall the Buyer Vulcan Termination Fee be payable if (i) the failure

of the condition in Section 9.1(c) or the termination of the Project Vulcan Transaction Agreement, as applicable, resulted from the occurrence of a MetalCo Material Adverse Effect (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a

failure of any condition in Sections 8.2(a), 8.2(e), 8.4(a) or 8.4(e), in each case, of the Project Vulcan Transaction Agreement to have been satisfied or waived) or (ii) at the time of such termination, any Order by a Governmental Body of

competent jurisdiction is in effect restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions. The applicable Buyer Termination Fee shall be payable when due in accordance with this

Section 10.3(a), without setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense, withholding or deduction, and Buyer shall not be entitled to withhold or delay payment based on the existence or potential existence of facts that might

support a claim for Fraud or Willful Breach. If both the Buyer Voyage Termination Fee and the Buyer Vulcan Termination Fee would otherwise be payable in respect of a termination of this Agreement, only the Buyer Vulcan Termination Fee shall be

payable.

(b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the fees and other provisions of this Section 10.3

are an integral part of the Transactions, (ii) each Buyer Termination Fee shall constitute liquidated damages and not a penalty and (iii) without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. If (x) Buyer fails to

timely pay any Buyer Termination Fee when due pursuant to Section 10.3(a) or (y) the Company brings an action for specific performance pursuant to Section 11.13, and a court rules that Buyer

breached this Agreement in connection with its failure to effect the Closing in accordance with Section 2.2, but such court declines to enforce specifically the obligations of Buyer to effect the Closing in accordance with

Section 2.2, then Buyer shall also pay any costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Company in connection with any Legal Proceeding to enforce this Agreement that leads to a judgment against

Buyer for such amount and all such actions to collect such costs and expenses (the “Company Enforcement Expenses”). If Buyer commences a Legal Proceeding against the Sellers, the Blocker or the Company in accordance with

Section 11.13 that results in a judgment for monetary damages against the Sellers, the Blocker or the Company, the Company shall also pay any costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Buyer in

connection with such Legal Proceeding (the “Buyer Enforcement Expenses”). In no event will the Company Enforcement Expenses, on the one hand, or the Buyer Enforcement Expenses, on the other hand, exceed, in the aggregate,

$3,000,000 (the “Enforcement Cap”).

115

Termination Fee when due, such fee shall accrue interest for the period commencing on the date such fee or other amount became past due through the date such fee is actually paid, at a rate equal to the Interest Rate, which amount shall be payable

in addition to such Buyer Termination Fee and the Company Enforcement Expenses (and not subject to the Enforcement Cap).

(d)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but subject to Section 10.2, Section 11.13 and this Section 10.3(d), each of the Parties expressly

acknowledges and agrees that, other than in the case of Fraud or Willful Breach of this Agreement by Buyer, the Company’s right to receive payment of the applicable Buyer Termination Fee pursuant to Section 10.3(a),

any Company Enforcement Expenses (subject to the Enforcement Cap) and any amounts payable under Section 10.3(c) and Section 8.11(d) shall constitute the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of the

Company, the Sellers and their respective Affiliates against the Buyer Related Parties and the Debt Financing Sources for all losses and damages in respect of this Agreement or the Transactions, and upon payment of the applicable Buyer Termination

Fee to the Company pursuant to Section 10.3(a), none of the Buyer Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation to the Company, the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates relating to or arising out

of this Agreement or the Transactions (except that Buyer shall continue to be obligated to the Company or the Sellers for the Company Enforcement Expenses (if any) (subject to the Enforcement Cap), amounts payable under

Section 10.3(c) and any of its expense reimbursement and indemnification obligations contained in Section 8.11(d)), all of which shall survive any termination of this Agreement and remain due and

payable in accordance with their respective terms; provided that the right of the Company and the Sellers to pursue damages for Willful Breach by Buyer shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, the right to receive a Buyer Termination Fee,

such that (x) if the Company or the Sellers (acting jointly) commence any Legal Proceeding seeking monetary damages in respect of any Willful Breach by Buyer, Buyer shall have no obligation to pay a Buyer Termination Fee (and to the extent

already paid, the Company shall promptly repay to Buyer the applicable Buyer Termination Fee (together with any interest paid under Section 10.3(c) in respect thereof, but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Company

Enforcement Expenses)) upon the earlier to occur of (1) the filing by the Company, with a court of competent jurisdiction, of a complaint asserting a claim for monetary damages in respect of a Willful Breach by Buyer and (2) the delivery

by the Company to Buyer of a written notice expressly electing to pursue monetary damages in respect of a Willful Breach by Buyer in lieu of a Buyer Termination Fee, and (y) if the Company has not delivered such a notice or filed such a

complaint on or prior to the date that is 90 days following the date of termination of this Agreement (or, if later, 90 days following the Company’s receipt of the applicable Buyer Termination Fee), the Company, the Sellers and their

respective Affiliates shall be deemed to have irrevocably elected to receive the applicable Buyer Termination Fee and to have waived and released any and all claims against the Buyer Related Parties in respect of any Willful Breach by Buyer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 11.13, the Sellers and the Company shall also have the right to pursue their rights under the Limited Guarantees and Equity Commitment Letter in accordance with

Section 11.13. For the avoidance of doubt, none of (A) seeking or obtaining specific performance, an injunction or other equitable relief, (B) enforcing Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement, the Equity

Commitment Letter or any Limited Guarantee, or (C) commencing or maintaining a Legal Proceeding solely to collect an applicable Buyer Termination Fee, Company Enforcement Expenses or interest shall discharge Buyer’s obligation to pay a

Buyer Termination Fee or require the Company to repay a Buyer Termination Fee.

116

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

11.1

Survival.The Parties, intending to modify any applicable statute of limitations, agree that, except in the case of Fraud, (a) (i) the representations and warranties of the Company, the Blocker or the Sellers contained in this Agreement

or any of the other Transaction Documents (including any certificate to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement) and (ii) the covenants and agreements of any Party set forth herein that require performance by such Party at or before the Closing

shall, in each of (i) and (ii), terminate effective as of the Closing without the need for any further action by any Person and shall not survive the Closing for any purpose whatsoever, and thereafter none of the Parties or any of their

respective Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives shall have any liability or obligation whatsoever with respect to any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, and no claim for breach of any such representation or

warranty, detrimental reliance or other right or remedy (whether in contract, in tort or at law or in equity) may be brought after the Closing with respect thereto, and (b) unless otherwise indicated, the covenants and agreements set forth in

this Agreement which by their terms are required to be performed after the Closing shall survive the Closing in accordance with their respective terms, if any, until such covenants or agreements have been fully performed or satisfied. This

Article XI (and any corresponding definitions set forth in Article I) shall continue and survive the Closing until all obligations with respect thereto shall have been performed or satisfied or have been terminated in accordance with

their terms (or if no period for performance is specified herein, they shall continue and survive indefinitely). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement, including the limitations on survival

set forth in this Section 11.1 shall limit the rights of Buyer or any Affiliate thereof under the R&W Insurance Policy, which shall be solely governed by the rights as set forth thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt,

the provisions of this Section 11.1 will not prevent or limit a cause of action under Section 11.13 to obtain an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the

terms and provisions hereof.

11.2 Expenses.Whether or not the Transactions are consummated, and except as otherwise provided in

this Agreement, each Party will bear its respective fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement or the Transactions (including legal, accounting and other

professional fees); provided that any fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Sellers or their Affiliates in connection with the negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the Transactions that are borne by the Blocker or

any Acquired Company shall constitute Company Transaction Expenses and shall reduce the Estimated Consideration or Final Consideration, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer shall pay, and be solely

Section 8.6, (c) fifty percent (50%) of all filing fees payable under the HSR Act and any other Antitrust Laws or Foreign Investment Laws, (d) fifty percent (50%) of any Transfer Taxes and (e) any fees and

expenses associated with acquiring any R&W Insurance Policy (the items in clauses (a) through (e), collectively, the “Buyer Expenses”). The remaining fifty percent (50%) of the fees and expenses described in clauses (b),

(c) and (d) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be borne by the Sellers as Company Transaction Expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any

117

Party obtains an injunction, a decree or Order of specific performance or other remedy, the other Party (other than an Affiliate of such Party) shall reimburse such Party for all out-of-pocket expenses (including all fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, financial advisors, experts and consultants) incurred by or on behalf of such Party or any

Affiliate of such Party in connection with obtaining such injunction, a decree or Order of specific performance or other remedy, subject to the Enforcement Cap (applied as if such expenses were Company Enforcement Expenses or Buyer Enforcement

Expenses, as the case may be).

11.3 Notary and Notarial Fees.The Sellers and Buyer are aware that the Notary holds office with

Lexence N.V. and hereby acknowledge that they have been informed of the existence of the Ordinance Containing Rules of Professional Conduct and Ethics (Verordening beroeps- en gedragsregels) of the

Sellers with respect to the Transactions, the Notarial Transfer Deeds and any agreements or any disputes related to or resulting from the Transactions, the Notarial Transfer Deeds and any agreements or any disputes related thereto; and (b) the

Notary shall execute the Notarial Transfer Deeds pursuant to which the Shares will be transferred and the Notary will act as civil law notary on behalf of the Sellers (partijnotaris). Lexence N.V. shall be responsible for arranging the

payment of all such fees, taxes and duties, including fulfilling any administrative or reporting obligation imposed by the jurisdiction in question in connection with such payment; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that all notarial fees and all

registration, stamp and transfer taxes and duties or their equivalents in all jurisdictions where such fees, taxes and duties are payable as a result of the Transactions shall be considered Transfer Taxes hereunder.

11.4 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Waiver of Jury.

(a) This Agreement and all Related Claims shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal Laws of the State

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 11.17, all Legal Proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement,

Agreement.

(a) This Agreement (including the Company Disclosure Schedules and any other Schedules and Exhibits hereto), the other

Transaction Documents, the Confidentiality Agreements, and each other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated hereby, executed or to be executed in connection with the Transactions (collectively, the “Specified

Documents”), represent the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, discussions, negotiations, correspondence,

communications, undertakings and understandings among the Parties with respect to the Transactions. The Parties have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, liabilities and obligations with respect to the Transactions exclusively in contract

pursuant to the express terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Specified Documents, and the Parties expressly disclaim that they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not expressly set forth in this Agreement or the other

Specified Documents. Furthermore, the Parties each hereby acknowledge that this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations; the Parties specifically acknowledge that

no Party has any special relationship with another Party that would justify any expectation beyond that of ordinary parties in an arm’s-length transaction.

119

(b) The sole and exclusive remedies for any breach of the terms and provisions of this

Agreement (including any representations and warranties set forth herein, made in connection herewith or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) or any claim or cause of action otherwise arising out of or related to the Transactions shall be

doubt, whether or not an R&W Insurance Policy is obtained, none of the Sellers, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to Buyer or any of its Affiliates in respect of any inaccuracy or breach of any Express

Representation, other than in the case of Fraud.

11.6 Amendments and Waivers.This Agreement may not be amended except by an

instrument in writing signed by Buyer, the Company, the Blocker and the Sellers. No waiver by any Party of any provision of this Agreement or any breach of this Agreement hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be valid unless the same shall be

in writing and signed by the Party making such waiver. No action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any Party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with

any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement contained herein. The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any

other or subsequent breach. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy

by such Party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

11.11 Legal Representation.

(a) Buyer hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Blocker, the Company or any of the

Company Subsidiaries) (all such parties, the “Waiving Parties”), that (i) Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP (or any successor) (“Paul Weiss”) and Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP (or

any successor) (“Weil”) may represent (A) any or all of the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates or their respective directors, members, partners, officers, employees (collectively, the “Seller

contemplated hereby or thereby between any of the Waiving Parties, on the one hand, and any member of the Seller Group, on the other hand, notwithstanding its representation of the Blocker, the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries. Each of

Buyer, the Blocker and the Company, on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby consents thereto and irrevocably waives (and will not assert) any conflict of interest, breach of duty or any other objection arising therefrom or relating

thereto.

(b) Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that all communications,

written or oral, between the Blocker, any of the Acquired Companies, any Person in the Seller Group or the Seller Representative and its counsel currently representing the Sellers, the Blocker and the Acquired Companies in connection with this

Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other agreements or transactions contemplated hereby, including Paul Weiss and Weil, made in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance under, or any dispute or

Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Transaction Documents or the Transactions, or any matter relating to any of the foregoing, are privileged communications that do not pass to the Blocker or the Company

Person other than the Seller Group.

Article X or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document that may be available then or thereafter.

(a)

Effective as of the Closing Date, except for any rights or obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, Buyer on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies and the

Blocker) and each of its current, former and future officers, directors, employees, partners, members, advisors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Releasing Parties”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives,

125

any cause, matter or thing relating to the business or operations of the Blocker or the Acquired Companies, the Transactions or the ownership of the Shares by the Seller Released Parties, in each

case, occurring or arising on or prior to the Closing Date, but, to the extent applicable, only to the extent that such cause, matter or thing does not otherwise constitute Fraud (including any actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings,

executions, judgments, duties, debts, dues, accounts, bonds, contracts, covenants, claims and demands for contribution, cost recovery or otherwise arising under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act or other

Environmental Laws). Buyer, on behalf of itself and each Buyer Releasing Party, covenants and agrees that no Buyer Releasing Party shall assert any such claim against the Seller Released Parties.

contracts and covenants (whether express or implied), and claims and demands whatsoever whether in law or in equity which the Seller Releasing Parties now have or in the future may have against each of the Buyer Released Parties, in each case, in

respect of any cause, matter or thing relating to the business or operations of the Blocker or the Acquired Companies, the Transactions or the ownership of the Shares by the Buyer Released Parties, in each case, occurring or arising on or prior to

the Closing Date, but, to the extent applicable, only to the extent that such cause, matter or thing does not otherwise constitute Fraud (including any actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings, executions, judgments, duties, debts, dues,

accounts, bonds, contracts, covenants, claims and demands for contribution, cost recovery, or otherwise arising under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act or other Environmental Laws). Each Seller, on behalf of

itself and each Seller Releasing Party, covenants and agrees that no Seller Releasing Party shall assert any such claim against the Buyer Released Parties.

11.15 Counterparts.This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts including by means of electronic transmission, such as by

electronic mail in “.pdf” form, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

11.16 Seller Representative.

(a) Designation. The Seller Representative is hereby authorized to serve as the representative, agent and attorney-in-fact of each Seller with respect to the matters expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Put Option Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents to be

performed by the Seller Representative.

126

(b) Authority. Each Seller irrevocably appoints the Seller Representative as the

representative, agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact for such Seller for all purposes of this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents, including the full power and

authority on such Seller’s behalf to (i) consummate the Transactions, (ii) deduct or hold back any funds which may be payable to any Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement in order to pay, or establish a reserve for, any

amount which may be payable by such Seller hereunder, (iii) give or receive notice under this Agreement, to execute and deliver on behalf of such Seller any amendment to the terms hereof or grant any waiver, consent or approval by the Sellers

under this Agreement, (iv) take all other actions to be taken by or on behalf of such Seller in connection herewith, (v) retain funds for reasonably anticipated expenses and liabilities, and (vi) do each and every act and exercise any

and all rights which such Seller or the Sellers collectively are permitted or required to do or exercise in connection with this Agreement and any other Transaction Document. The Seller Representative shall act for the Sellers on all of the matters

set forth in this Agreement in the manner the Seller Representative believes to be in the best interest of the Sellers. All decisions and actions by the Seller Representative made in accordance with the authority granted to it hereunder shall be

binding upon all of the Sellers, and no Seller shall have the right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall be entitled to rely on the acts, to the extent authorized hereunder, of the Seller

Representative.

(i) Each Seller further agrees that he, she or it shall promptly reimburse the Seller Representative for his, her or its Pro

Rata Share of any payment obligations, fees or expenses incurred by the Seller Representative in exercising its authority hereunder and taking any actions pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;

provided that the Seller Representative shall first make payment of such fees and expenses from the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount.

(ii) The Seller Representative will hold the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount in a segregated account with a Federal Deposit

Insurance Corporation insured institution in a segregated account separate from the Seller Representative’s corporate funds, and the Seller Representative will not use these funds for its operating expenses or any other corporate purposes and

will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. The Sellers will not receive any interest or earnings on the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Seller

Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Seller Representative will not be liable for any loss of principal of the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount other than as a result of its fraud,

gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(iii) The Expense Reserve Holdback Amount shall be retained by the Seller

Representative for such time as the Seller Representative shall determine in its sole discretion. As soon as practicable following the completion of the Seller Representative’s responsibilities, the Seller Representative will deliver the

aggregate amount of funds remaining in the Expense Reserve Holdback Account to the Sellers in accordance with their Pro Rata Share.

(iv) For Tax purposes, the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by

the Sellers at the time of the Closing.

127

(d) Replacement. The Seller Representative may resign at any time. In the event that

the Seller Representative becomes unable to perform its responsibilities hereunder or resigns from such position, the Sellers (or, if applicable, their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns) who held a majority of the

direct or indirect voting power of the Company shall select another representative to fill such vacancy, and such substituted representative shall be deemed to be the Seller Representative for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e) Exculpation.

(i) The Seller Representative will incur no liability of any kind to any Seller with respect to any action or omission by the

Seller Representative in connection with the Seller Representative’s services pursuant to this Agreement and any other Transaction Document while acting in good faith, except to the extent such liability primarily results from the Seller

Representative’s Fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct and the Seller Representative shall not be liable to any Seller for any action or omission pursuant to the advice of outside counsel; provided, for the avoidance of doubt,

that the foregoing shall not limit or otherwise affect any liability or obligation of the Seller Representative (in its capacity as such) to Buyer or any of its Affiliates under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. Buyer agrees that it

will not look to the personal assets of the Seller Representative, acting in such capacity, for the satisfaction of any obligations to be performed by the Blocker and the Acquired Companies (pre-Closing) or

the Sellers.

(ii) Each Seller will, severally (based on its Pro Rata Share) but not jointly with the other Sellers,

indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller Representative from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, penalties, fines, forfeitures, actions, fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel and experts and their staffs and all expense of document location, duplication and shipment) (collectively, “Representative

Losses”) arising out of or in connection with the Seller Representative’s execution and performance of this Agreement and any agreements ancillary hereto, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred;

provided that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been primarily caused by the bad faith, Fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Seller Representative, the Seller Representative will

reimburse the Sellers the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss to the extent attributable to such bad faith, Fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. If not paid directly to the Seller Representative by the Sellers, any such

Representative Losses may be recovered by the Seller Representative from the Expense Reserve Holdback Amount at such time as remaining amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Sellers; provided that while this

Section 11.16(e) allows the Seller Representative to be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve the Sellers from their obligation to promptly pay such Representative Losses as they are suffered

or incurred, nor does it prevent the Seller Representative from seeking any remedies available to it at law or otherwise. In no event will the Seller Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Sellers or otherwise.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of the Sellers set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities

provided to the Seller Representative under this Section 11.16.

128

(iii) This Section 11.16(e) will survive the

Closing, the resignation or removal of the Seller Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

(f) Irrevocability;

Successors. The provisions of this Section 11.16 are independent and severable, are irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall be enforceable notwithstanding any rights or remedies that any Seller may have in

connection with the Transactions. The provisions of this Section 11.16 shall be binding upon the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of each Seller, and any references in this Agreement to a Seller shall

mean and include the successors to the rights of the Sellers hereunder, whether pursuant to testamentary disposition, the Laws of descent and distribution or otherwise.

11.17 Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company, on behalf of itself, the Company

Subsidiaries and each of its controlled Affiliates, and each Seller, on behalf of itself and each of its controlled Affiliates, hereby:

(a) without limiting the rights of Buyer under the Debt Commitment Letter or any right or remedy available to any Person under the definitive

documentation governing the Debt Financing, agrees that none of the Debt Financing Sources will have any liability to the Company, the Blocker, the Sellers or any of the Company Subsidiaries or any of their respective controlled Affiliates relating

to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort

or otherwise;

(b) agrees that any proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the

Debt Financing Sources, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the agreements (including the Debt Commitment Letter) entered into in connection with the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated

hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, and any appellate court thereof and each Party irrevocably

submits itself and its property with respect to any such proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court;

proceeding shall be governed by the Laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the Laws of another state), except as otherwise provided in the Debt Commitment

Letter or other applicable definitive document relating to the Debt Financing;

(d) agrees not to bring or support or permit any of its

Affiliates to bring or support any proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Debt Financing Source in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Debt

Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder in any forum other than any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York;

(e) agrees that service of process upon the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or its controlled Affiliates in any such proceeding shall be

effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 11.7;

129

(f) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of

an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Legal Proceeding in any such court;

(g) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives,

to the fullest extent permitted by Law, trial by jury in any proceeding involving any Debt Financing Source in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter or any of the transactions

contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder; and

(h) agrees that the Debt Financing Sources are express

third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions of Section 10.3(d), Section 11.13(d) and this Section 11.17 and that such provisions and the

definition of “Debt Financing Source” (and the other related definitions used in such provisions and definition and any other provisions of this Agreement to the extent an amendment thereof would serve to modify or waive the substance of

such provisions or definitions) shall not be amended in any way adverse to any Debt Financing Source without the prior written consent of such Debt Financing Source.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11.17 shall in any way limit or modify the rights and

obligations of Buyer under this Agreement or any Debt Financing Source’s obligations to Buyer under any debt commitment letter or to Buyer (and following the Closing Date, the Blocker and the Acquired Companies) under the definitive agreements

governing the Debt Financing. This Section 11.17 shall, with respect to the matters referenced herein, supersede any provision of this Agreement to the contrary.

on the Commitments Schedule attached hereto, on the terms set forth in this Commitment Letter and the Term Sheet (in such capacity, together with any other Initial Revolving Lenders appointed as described below, the “Initial Revolving

Lenders”, and, together with the Initial Term Lenders, the “Initial Lenders”), in each case subject solely to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Conditions Exhibit attached hereto as Exhibit

C (the “Conditions Exhibit”). The commitments herein of each Initial Lender are several and not joint.

Titles and Roles

It is agreed that (i) Wells Fargo Securities, Goldman Sachs, RBCCM, DBSI and BofA Securities will act as joint lead arrangers and

You may, on or prior to the 20th business day after the Acceptance Date (as defined below), appoint additional lead arrangers, bookrunners, managers, agents or co-agents in respect of the

equal to the proportion of the economics allocated to such Additional Arranger (or its affiliate) in respect of the Facilities and (y) the commitment amounts of, and the economics allocated to, the Commitment Parties party hereto immediately

prior to such appointment in respect of the Facilities will be proportionately reduced by the commitment amounts of, and economics allocated to, each such Additional Arranger (or its affiliate), in each case upon the execution and delivery by such

Additional Arranger (or its affiliate) of customary joinder documentation (which may be in the form of an amendment and restatement of this Commitment Letter) (a “Joinder”)) and, thereafter, each such Additional Arranger (and its

affiliate) shall constitute a “Commitment Party” and “Lead Arranger”, “Initial Term Lender” and/or “Initial Revolving Lender” (as applicable) and an “Initial Lender” under this Commitment

obtain its commitment to participate in the Facilities unless you and we shall so agree. Any Excluded Party (as defined below) of an Additional Arranger shall be treated in the same manner as an Excluded Party of a Lead Arranger.

Syndication

We reserve the right to syndicate the Facilities to a group of banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders (together with the

Initial Lenders, the “Lenders”) identified by us in consultation with you and reasonably acceptable to you (including any relationship lenders designated by you in consultation with us), in each case excluding (i) any person

identified by you or either Sponsor in writing (including by email) (x) to us prior to the date hereof, (y) to us after the date hereof and on or prior to the Closing Date, that is reasonably acceptable to us or (z) from time to time

after the Closing Date, to the Administrative Agent, (ii) any person that is a competitor of Holdings, you, Silgan, the Target or your or their respective subsidiaries, in each case that is separately identified in writing by you or either

the ordinary course of business) or (iv) any person that is an Excluded Party (any such person in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, a “Disqualified Institution”). The designation of a Disqualified Institution shall

not have retroactive effect. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter to the contrary (other than (x) upon execution and delivery of a Joinder, in connection with any assignment to an Additional Arranger in respect of the

amount allocated to such Additional Arranger pursuant to such Joinder and (y) in the case of any assignments among Goldman Sachs and Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC), (i) no Initial Lender shall be relieved or novated from its obligations

hereunder (including its obligation to fund the Facilities on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Facilities, including its commitments in respect thereof, until after the initial funding of the

Facilities on the Closing Date, (ii) no assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of any Initial Lender’s commitments in respect of the Facilities until after the initial funding of the Facilities on

to consents, modifications, supplements and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred.

Acquisition Agreement, the Target and its subsidiaries, (ii) facilitating telephonic or virtual contact between appropriate members of your senior management and certain legal and non-legal advisors and

representatives, on the one hand, and the

-3-

proposed Lenders, on the other hand (and, to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Voyage Acquisition Agreement, using your commercially reasonable efforts to cause

such contact between appropriate members of senior management and certain advisors and representatives of the Target, its subsidiaries and the proposed Lenders), in each case upon reasonable advance notice and at times to be agreed, (iii) your

assistance (and using your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Sponsors and, to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Voyage Acquisition Agreement, the Target and its subsidiaries to assist) in the preparation

of customary confidential information memoranda (collectively, the “Confidential Information Memorandum”) and other customary marketing materials reasonably requested by us to be used in connection with the syndication of the

Facilities (such materials, together with the Confidential Information Memorandum and the Term Sheet, collectively, the “Information Materials”), (iv) the hosting, with the Commitment Parties, of a meeting (or, if

you require, a conference call in lieu of such meeting) of prospective Lenders at such time and location to be mutually agreed (and, to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Voyage Acquisition Agreement, using your

commercially reasonable efforts to cause appropriate members of senior management of the Target and its subsidiaries to be available for such meeting or conference call), (v) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at our reasonable prior

written request, prior to the launch of general syndication of the Facilities (which use of commercially reasonable efforts shall not require you to change the proposed terms of any Facility) (x) public corporate family ratings and/or a public

corporate credit rating (but not a specific rating) for the Borrower and (y) public ratings (but not a specific rating) for the Initial Term Facility from each of Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

(“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, a subsidiary of S&P Global Inc. (“S&P”) and (vi) ensuring and, to the extent practical and appropriate

and not in contravention of the Voyage Acquisition Agreement, using your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target and its subsidiaries to ensure, that, without our prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or

delayed), until the expiration of the Syndication Period, there is no competing offering, placement or arrangement of any dollar- or euro-denominated debt securities or syndicated credit facilities (other than the Facilities (or replacement or

increase thereof), any debt disclosed to us on or prior to the date hereof (including any such debt referenced in the Target and its subsidiaries’ and Silgan’s financial statements delivered to us on or prior to the date hereof),

drawings under any revolving credit facility, any debt permitted to remain outstanding by the Transaction Summary, any debt that the Lead Arrangers agree in writing may remain outstanding, any debt permitted under the Voyage Acquisition Agreement

and any refinancing, replacement, extension or renewal of existing debt of the Target or any amendment to any such debt), by or on behalf of Holdings, the Borrower, the Target or any of their respective subsidiaries that would materially and

adversely impair the primary syndication of the Facilities (it being agreed that any debt incurred in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, deferred purchase obligations, intercompany debt, capital leases, purchase money

financings and equipment financings are not restricted by the foregoing).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this

Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter or any other letter agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions, neither the obtaining of the ratings referenced above, nor the commencement or completion of syndication of the

Facilities, nor the completion of a Confidential Information Memorandum or other marketing materials nor compliance with any other provision set forth in this Commitment Letter (other than the conditions set forth in the Conditions Exhibit), shall

constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or to the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not be required to provide any information to the extent the provision thereof would violate any

applicable law, rule or regulation, or any confidentiality obligation binding upon, or waive any privilege that may be asserted by, Holdings, the Borrower, the Target, either Sponsor or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates or cause

competitive harm to the Target, either Sponsor or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates if the transactions described in the Transaction Summary are not consummated; provided that, in the event that you do not provide information

in reliance on this sentence, you shall provide notice to the Lead

-4-

Arrangers that such information is being withheld and you shall use your commercially reasonable efforts to communicate the applicable information in a way that would not violate the applicable

obligation or risk waiver of such privilege. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the only financial statements that shall be required to be provided in connection with the syndication of the Facilities shall be those required to be

delivered pursuant to paragraph 6 of the Conditions Exhibit. We will manage, in consultation with you, all aspects of the syndication of the Facilities, including decisions as to the selection of institutions (subject to your consent, not to

be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and subject to the exclusion of Disqualified Institutions) to be approached and when they will be approached, when the Lenders’ commitments will be accepted, which Lenders will participate (subject to your

consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and subject to the exclusion of Disqualified Institutions), the allocation of the commitments among the Lenders (subject to your rights of appointment in Section 2 above)

and the amount and distribution of fees among the Lenders.

You acknowledge that (i) we, on your behalf, will make available the

Information Materials to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by posting the Information Materials on SyndTrak or IntraLinks or another similar electronic system and (ii) certain prospective Lenders (such Lenders, “Public

Lenders”; all other Lenders, “Private Lenders”) may have personnel that do not wish to receive MNPI (as defined below) with respect to Holdings, the Target and their respective subsidiaries (collectively, the

“Relevant Entities”) or the securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such entities’ securities. As used herein, “MNPI”

means information about any Relevant Entity and its securities that constitutes material non-public information within the meaning of the United States federal and state securities laws, or, if such Relevant

Entity is not a public reporting company, that would have constituted material non-public information within the meaning of the United States federal and state securities laws if such Relevant Entity was a

public reporting company (as determined by you in good faith). If we reasonably request, you will use your commercially reasonable efforts to assist us in preparing (and, to the extent practical and appropriate and not in contravention of the Voyage

Acquisition Agreement, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to assist us in preparing) a customary additional version of the Information Materials not containing MNPI (the “Public Information Materials”) to be

distributed to prospective Public Lenders.

Before distribution of any Information Materials (i) to prospective Private Lenders, you

(or the Target) shall provide us with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Information Materials and (ii) to prospective Public Lenders, you (or the Target) shall provide us with a customary letter consistent with the terms

of this Commitment Letter authorizing the dissemination of the Public Information Materials and customarily represent as to the absence of MNPI therein, and in each case exculpating us and our affiliates, the Target and its affiliates and you and

your affiliates from any liability related to the use of the contents of the Information Materials by the recipients thereof.

You agree

that, subject to the confidentiality and other provisions of this Commitment Letter, we, on your behalf, may distribute the following documents to all prospective Lenders, including prospective Public Lenders, unless you advise us in writing

(including by email) within a reasonable time prior to their intended distributions that such material should only be distributed to prospective Private Lenders (provided that you and your counsel shall have been given a reasonable

opportunity to review such documents): (i) administrative materials for prospective Lenders such as lender meeting invitations, allocations and funding and closing memoranda, (ii) term sheets and notifications of changes to the

Facilities’ terms and (iii) drafts and final versions of the Facilities Documentation. If you advise us that any of the foregoing items should be distributed only to Private Lenders, then we will not distribute such materials to Public

Lenders without your prior written consent. You also agree, at our reasonable request, to use commercially reasonable efforts to identify information to be distributed to the Public Lenders by clearly and conspicuously marking the same as

“PUBLIC” (it being understood that you shall not be under any obligation to mark any particular portion of the information as “PUBLIC”). By marking any

-5-

documents, information or other data “PUBLIC” you shall be deemed to have authorized the Commitment Parties and the Lenders (subject to the confidentiality and other provisions of

this Commitment Letter) to treat such documents, information or other data as not containing MNPI. We shall be entitled to treat all information that is not specifically identified as “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting to

Private Lenders (other than those documents described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this paragraph).

Information

You hereby represent (to your knowledge with respect to the Target and its subsidiaries) (but the accuracy of which representation shall not be

a condition to the commitments hereunder or to the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date) that (i) all written factual information (other than the Projections, the Model, other forward-looking information, information of a general

economic or general industry nature and all third party memos or reports furnished to us) (such non-excluded items, the “Information”), that has been or will be made available to us by you,

either Sponsor or any of your or its representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, when taken as a whole and together with any public filings by the Target or Silgan relating to the Target and its subsidiaries or Silgan

and its subsidiaries, as applicable, does not or will not, when furnished, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in

light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto) and (ii) the written financial projections (the “Projections”) contained in the Confidential

Information Memorandum have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by you to be reasonable at the time furnished (it being recognized by the Commitment Parties that such Projections are predictions as to future events

and are not to be viewed as facts, are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular financial projections will be realized, that actual results

during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results, and that such differences may be material). You agree that if, at any time prior to the later of (x) the Closing Date and

(y) the expiration of the Syndication Period, you become aware that any of the representations in the preceding sentence (to your knowledge with respect to the Target and its subsidiaries), would be incorrect in any material respect if the

Information and the Projections were being furnished, and such representations and warranties were being made, at such time, then you will promptly supplement (or, with respect to Information and Projections with respect to the Target and its

subsidiaries, subject to any limitation on your rights set forth in the Voyage Acquisition Agreement, use your commercially reasonable efforts to promptly supplement) the Information or the Projections, as applicable, so that such representations

are correct in all material respects under those circumstances (or, in the case of any Information or Projections with respect to the Target and its subsidiaries, to your knowledge), and such supplementation shall cure any breach of any such

representation. In arranging and syndicating the Facilities we may use and rely on the Information, Projections and other forward-looking information without independent verification thereof and we do not assume responsibility for the accuracy or

completeness of the Information, the Projections, the Model and other forward-looking information.

Fees

As consideration for the commitments and agreements of the Commitment Parties hereunder, you agree to pay or cause to be paid the fees

described in this Commitment Letter and in the Fee Letter dated the date hereof and delivered herewith (the “Fee Letter”) on the terms and subject to the conditions (including as to timing and amount) set forth herein and therein.

-6-

Conditions

Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Facilities Documentation or any other letter agreement or other

undertaking concerning the financing of the transactions contemplated hereby to the contrary:

(i) the only conditions to the availability

and funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date are those set forth in the Conditions Exhibit and, upon satisfaction (or waiver by the Lead Arrangers) of such conditions, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will execute and deliver

the Facilities Documentation to which it is a party and the initial funding of the Facilities shall occur; it being understood and agreed that there are no other conditions (implied or otherwise) to the availability and funding of the Facilities on

the Closing Date, including compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or the Facilities Documentation (other than the conditions set forth in the Conditions Exhibit);

(ii) the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability and funding of the Facilities on

the Closing Date shall be (i)(x) such of the representations and warranties made by the Sellers (as defined in the Voyage Acquisition Agreement) with respect to the Target and its subsidiaries in the Voyage Acquisition Agreement as are material to

the interests of the Initial Lenders, but only to the extent that you (or any of your affiliates) have the right (taking into account any applicable cure provisions) to terminate your (or its) obligations under the Voyage Acquisition Agreement or

decline to consummate the Acquisition without liability to you (or your applicable affiliates) (in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Voyage Acquisition Agreement) as a result of a breach of such representations and warranties in the

Voyage Acquisition Agreement without any liability to you and (y) such of the representations and warranties made by SHI (as defined in the JV Acquisition Agreement) with respect to the MetalCo Business in the JV Acquisition Agreement as are

material to the interests of the Initial Lenders, but only to the extent that you (or any of your affiliates) have the right (taking into account any applicable cure provisions) to terminate your (or its) obligations under the JV Acquisition

Agreement or decline to consummate the JV Acquisition without liability to you (or your applicable affiliates) (in each case, in accordance with the terms of the JV Acquisition Agreement) as a result of a breach of such representations and

warranties in the JV Acquisition Agreement without any liability to you (collectively, the “Specified Acquisition Agreement Representations”) and (ii) the Specified Representations (as defined below) (the representations

described in clauses (i) and (ii) being the “Closing Date Representations”); and

(iii) the terms of the

Facilities Documentation and any closing deliverables shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability or funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date if the conditions set forth in the Conditions Exhibit are satisfied (or waived by

the Lead Arrangers) (it being understood that, to the extent any Collateral (including the creation or perfection of any security interest) is not or cannot be provided on the Closing Date (other than the perfection of liens on

Collateral that may be perfected by the filing of financing statements under the UCC and the delivery of stock certificates of the Borrower and its wholly-owned material domestic restricted subsidiaries (in each case, to the extent certificated)

evidencing the equity interests required to be pledged pursuant to the Term Sheet with respect to which a lien may be perfected by the delivery of a stock or equivalent certificate, but, with respect to such restricted subsidiaries acquired pursuant

to the Acquisition, only to the extent received at least two business days prior to the Closing Date after use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so) after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so or without undue burden or

expense, then the provision of any such Collateral (including the creation or perfection of any security interest) shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability or funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date, but may instead be

provided within 90 days after the Closing Date pursuant to arrangements to be mutually agreed, subject to such extensions as are reasonably agreed by the Administrative Agent).

-7-

“Specified Representations” means the representations and warranties set

forth in the Facilities Documentation relating to: incorporation or formation of the Loan Parties; organizational power and authority of the Loan Parties to execute, deliver and perform under the Facilities Documentation; due authorization,

execution, delivery and enforceability of the Facilities Documentation; solvency of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries on a consolidated basis after giving effect to the Transactions (to be determined in a manner consistent with the

solvency certificate in the form attached as Annex I to the Conditions Exhibit); no conflicts of the Facilities Documentation (limited to the execution, delivery and performance of the Facilities Documentation, incurrence

of the debt thereunder and the granting of guarantees and security interests in respect thereof) with charter documents of the Loan Parties; Federal Reserve margin regulations; the Investment Company Act; use of proceeds of the Facilities not

violating the FCPA, the PATRIOT Act and OFAC; and the creation, validity and perfection of the security interests granted in UCC Article 9 collateral to be perfected on the Closing Date (subject in all respects to customary permitted liens and

the foregoing provisions of this Section 6). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any of the Closing Date Representations is qualified or subject to “material adverse effect”, the

definition of “Material Adverse Effect” in either Acquisition Agreement shall apply for the purposes of any representations and warranties made, or to be made, on or as of the Closing Date.

This Section 6, and the provisions herein, shall be referred to as the “Limited Conditionality

Provision”.

Indemnification and Expenses

You agree, if the Closing Date occurs, to reimburse the Commitment Parties, on the Closing Date, upon presentation of a summary statement,

together with any supporting documentation reasonably requested by you, for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses (provided that (i) legal fees will

be limited to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to the Lead Arrangers, taken as a whole (and, if necessary, of one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction, in each case, to such persons taken as a

whole) and (ii) in the case of any other advisors or consultants, such expense reimbursement obligations shall be limited solely to advisors or consultants approved by you) incurred in connection with the Facilities, the syndication thereof and

the preparation, negotiation and execution of the Facilities Documentation. You acknowledge that we may receive a benefit, including without limitation, a discount, credit or other accommodation, from any of such counsel based on the fees such

counsel may receive on account of their relationship with us including, without limitation, fees paid pursuant hereto.

You agree to

indemnify and hold harmless each of the Commitment Parties (in their roles as Commitment Parties) and their respective affiliates (other than any Excluded Party and any Related Party of such Excluded Party in its capacity as such) and controlling

persons and their respective directors, officers, employees, members, agents, advisors and other representatives, successors and assigns (in each case, in respect of any Commitment Party in its capacity as such) (each an “Indemnified

Party”; and, in the case of any Commitment Party, any such other Indemnified Party related to such Commitment Party shall be referred to as a “Related Party” of such Commitment Party), within 30 days of a written demand

therefor, together with backup documentation supporting such indemnity request, from and against all claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses

(provided that legal fees, disbursements and other charges will be limited to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of (i) one counsel to the Indemnified Parties taken as a whole, (ii) if necessary, one local counsel

in each relevant material jurisdiction to the Indemnified Parties taken as a whole and (iii) in the case of any actual or perceived conflict of interest, after the affected person(s) notifies you of such conflict, one additional counsel and, if

necessary, one additional local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction to the affected Indemnified Parties taken as a whole), that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in

-8-

each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of any investigation, litigation or proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”) in connection with the Transactions or the

Facilities (or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds thereof), in each case except to the extent such claim, damage, liability or expense (x) arises from a dispute that does not involve any action or omission by you or any of

your affiliates and is solely among the Indemnified Parties (other than any claims against an Indemnified Party in its capacity as an Administrative Agent or a Lead Arranger) or (y) is found in a final,

non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or any of its Related Parties or a material

breach by such Indemnified Party or any of its Related Parties of its obligations hereunder or under the Facilities Documentation. In the case of a Proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective

whether or not such Proceeding is brought by you, your equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of the Transactions is consummated. The

foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall be superseded to the extent covered by the applicable provisions of the Facilities Documentation upon execution thereof and thereafter shall have no further force and effect.

In case any Proceeding is instituted involving any Indemnified Party for which indemnification is to be sought hereunder by such Indemnified

Party, then such Indemnified Party will promptly notify you of the commencement of any Proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to so notify you will not relieve you from any liability that you may have to such Indemnified Party

pursuant to this section, except to the extent that you are materially prejudiced by such failure.

No Indemnified Party shall have any

liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to you or your subsidiaries or affiliates or to your or their respective equityholders or creditors arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of the

Transactions, except to the extent of direct, as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive, damages determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have

resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or any of its Related Parties or a material breach by such Indemnified Party or any of its Related Parties of its obligations under this Commitment Letter

or the Facilities Documentation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of you, your direct or indirect equityholders, the Sponsors, the other Investors, the Target or any of your or their affiliates shall be liable for any special,

indirect, consequential or punitive damages (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) arising out of, related to or in connection with, this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or any aspect of the Transactions; provided

that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit your indemnification and reimbursement obligations to the extent such special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim with respect to which such

Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

No Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by

others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such

Indemnified Party or any of its Related Parties, in each case as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

You shall not be liable for any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any Proceeding (or expenses related thereto)

effected without your written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled, compromised or consented to with your written consent, or if there is a final and

non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in any such Proceeding, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party in the manner and to the extent set forth above. You shall

not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceedings in respect of which indemnity has been sought hereunder by an Indemnified Party without the prior written

-9-

consent of such Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified

Party in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such proceedings and (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault by or on

behalf of any Indemnified Party.

Each Indemnified Party shall be severally obligated to refund or return any and all amounts paid by you

or any of your affiliates under this Section 7 to the extent such Indemnified Party is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms hereof, as determined by a final and

non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Sharing of Information, Absence of Fiduciary Relationship, Affiliate Activities

You acknowledge that each Commitment Party (together with its affiliates, each a “Financial Institution”) is a full service

securities firm engaged, either directly or through affiliates, in various activities, including securities trading, investment banking and financial advisory, investment management, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities

and financial planning and benefits counseling for both companies and individuals. The Financial Institutions may have economic interests that conflict with those of you, the Target and your and its respective affiliates. In the ordinary course of

these activities, each Financial Institution may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and/or financial instruments (including bank loans) for its own account and

for the accounts of its customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and/or instruments. Such investment and other activities may involve securities and instruments of you, the Target and your and its affiliates, as

well as of other entities and persons and their affiliates which may (i) be involved in transactions arising from or relating to the engagement contemplated by this Commitment Letter, (ii) be customers or competitors of you, the Target or

your or its respective subsidiaries or affiliates or (iii) have other relationships with you, the Target or your or its respective subsidiaries or affiliates. With respect to any securities and/or instruments so held by any Financial

Institution or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion. In addition, the Financial Institutions may provide

investment banking, underwriting and/or financial advisory services to such other entities and persons. The Financial Institutions may also co-invest with, make direct investments in, and invest or co-invest client monies in or with funds or other investment vehicles managed by other parties, and such funds or other investment vehicles may trade or make investments in securities of you or the Target or such

other entities. The transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter may have a direct or indirect impact on the investments, securities or instruments referred to in this paragraph.

The Financial Institutions, in the course of such other activities and relationships, may acquire information about the transactions

contemplated by this Commitment Letter or other entities and persons which may be the subject of the financing contemplated by this Commitment Letter. None of the Financial Institutions and none of their respective affiliates will use confidential

information obtained from you or your affiliates or on your or their behalf by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby in connection with the performance by the Financial Institutions of services for other companies or other persons and none

of the Financial Institutions will furnish any such information to any of their other customers. You also acknowledge that the Financial Institutions have no obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, or to furnish to

you, confidential information obtained from other companies or other persons.

-10-

You further acknowledge and agree that (i) no fiduciary, advisory or (except as

expressly provided in the Facilities Documentation) agency relationship between you and the Financial Institutions is intended to be or has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter, irrespective of

whether the Financial Institutions have advised or are advising you on other matters, (ii) the Financial Institutions, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand, have an arm’s length business relationship that does not directly or

indirectly give rise to, nor do you rely on, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Financial Institutions (and you hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that you may have against the Commitment Parties and

their respective affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agree that no Commitment Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect) to you in respect of such fiduciary duty claim or to any person

asserting a fiduciary duty on behalf of or in right of you, including your equity holders, employees or creditors, in each case in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter), (iii) you are capable of evaluating and

understanding, and you understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter and (iv) you have been advised that the Commitment Parties are engaged in a broad range of transactions

that may involve interests that differ from your interests and that the Financial Institutions have no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to you by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship. In addition, please

note that the Commitment Parties do not provide accounting, tax, investment, regulatory or legal advice.

An affiliate of Goldman Sachs

and an affiliate of Wells Fargo Securities have been retained by you as a financial advisor (each, in such capacity, a “Buy Side Advisor”) in connection with the Acquisition, and BofA Securities and/or its affiliates have been

retained by you as a financial advisor (in such capacity, the “Financial Advisor” and, together with any Buy Side Advisor, each a “Retained Advisor”) in connection with the Transactions. You agree to such

retentions, and further agree not to assert any claim you might allege based on any actual or potential conflicts of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from, on the one hand, the engagement of any Retained Advisor and/or its

respective affiliates’ arranging or providing or contemplating arranging or providing financing for a competing bidder and, on the other hand, our and our respective affiliates’ relationships with you described and referred to herein.

You acknowledge that, in such capacity, any Retained Advisor may advise you in other manners adverse to the interests of the parties hereto. Each of the Commitment Parties party hereto acknowledges (i) that an affiliate of Goldman Sachs has

been retained as a Buy Side Advisor and (ii) that such relationship does not create any fiduciary duties or fiduciary responsibilities to such Commitment Party on the part of such entities or their affiliates.

Except as expressly set forth above, this Section 8 shall not apply to or modify or otherwise affect any arrangement

with any advisor (including any financial advisor) separately retained by you, the Sponsors or any of your or its affiliates in connection with the Acquisition, in its capacity as such.

Confidentiality

This Commitment Letter is delivered to you on the understanding that (i) you shall not disclose, directly or indirectly, to any other

person the Fee Letter or the contents thereof or, prior to your acceptance hereof, the Commitment Letter or the contents hereof, except (a) to the Sponsors and the other Investors, the Sellers (as defined in the Voyage Acquisition Agreement),

the Target and its subsidiaries, potential equity investors (including rollover investors), your and their respective affiliates and your and their respective officers, directors, employees, members, partners, stockholders, attorneys, accountants,

auditors, agents and advisors, in each case, on a confidential basis, unless, in each case, the Commitment Parties otherwise consent in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) (provided that any disclosure of the Fee Letter or

its terms or substance to the Sellers (as defined in the Voyage Acquisition Agreement), the Target or their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, members, partners, stockholders, attorneys, accountants, auditors, agents or advisors

shall be redacted in respect of the amounts, percentages and basis points of fees set forth therein), (b) (1) in any legal, judicial or

-11-

administrative proceeding or as otherwise required by law, court order, order of any administrative agency, regulation or any compulsory legal process or as requested by a governmental authority

(in which case you agree, to the extent practicable and permitted by law, to inform us promptly in advance thereof and, to the extent you may legally and practically do so, allow us a reasonable opportunity to object to such disclosure in such

proceeding or process) or (2) to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedy or enforcement of any rights hereunder or under the Fee Letter, (c) you may disclose the Fee Letter and the contents thereof to

(1) after your acceptance hereof, actual and potential Additional Arrangers, who have agreed to be bound by confidentiality restrictions with respect thereto on substantially the same terms set forth in the next paragraph, and their respective

officers, directors, employees, affiliates, members, partners, stockholders, attorneys, accountants, auditors, agents and advisors and (d) you may disclose the aggregate fee amount contained in the Fee Letter as part of the Projections, pro

forma information or a generic disclosure of aggregate sources and uses related to fee amounts related to the Transactions to the extent customary or required in offering and marketing materials for the Facilities or in any public or regulatory

filing requirement related to the Transactions and (ii) the Commitment Letter and the contents hereof may be disclosed (a) on a confidential basis to actual and potential Lenders and Additional Arrangers and their respective officers,

directors, employees, affiliates, members, partners, stockholders, attorneys, accountants, auditors, agents and advisors and to any rating agency in connection with the Transactions, (b) in any syndication of the Facilities (including in any

Confidential Information Memorandum) or in any proxy statement or other public or regulatory filing in connection with the Transactions, (c) to the extent such information becomes publicly available other than by reason of improper disclosure

by you in violation of any confidentiality obligations hereunder or (d) as may be required by the rules, regulations, schedules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with any filings with the Securities and Exchange

Commission. The obligations under this paragraph with respect to this Commitment Letter (but not the Fee Letter) shall terminate on the earlier of (i) to the extent covered thereby, the execution and delivery of the Facilities Documentation and

(ii) the first anniversary of the date hereof.

Each Commitment Party, on behalf of itself and its affiliates, shall use all

information received by it or them from (or on behalf of) you or either Sponsor in connection with the Acquisitions and the related transactions (including any information obtained by it or them based on a review of any books and records relating to

Holdings, the Borrower or the Target or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) solely for the purposes of providing the services that are the subject of this Commitment Letter and shall treat confidentially all such information and

shall not publish, disclose or otherwise divulge such information; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Commitment Party from disclosing any such information (other than to a Disqualified Institution) (i) in coordination with

you, to rating agencies on a confidential basis in connection with the Transactions, (ii) to any actual or prospective Lenders, participants or direct or indirect contractual counterparties to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the

Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or its obligations under the Facilities, in each case, who are advised of the confidential nature of such information and agree to keep such information confidential (provided that no such disclosure shall

be made to any Disqualified Institution), (iii) to the extent compelled by legal process in, or reasonably necessary to, the defense of such legal, judicial or administrative proceeding, in any legal, judicial or administrative proceeding or

otherwise as required by applicable law, rule or regulation (in which case such Commitment Party shall promptly notify you, in advance, to the extent permitted by law (and if such Commitment Party is unable to notify you in advance of such

disclosure, such notice shall be delivered to you promptly thereafter to the extent permitted by law) and, to the extent such Commitment Party may legally and practically do so, allow you a reasonable opportunity to object to such disclosure in such

proceeding or process, and in any event use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any such information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment), (iv) upon the request or demand of any regulatory authority (including any

self-regulatory authority) having jurisdiction over such Commitment Party or its affiliates (in which case such Commitment Party shall, except with respect to any routine or ordinary course audit or examination conducted by bank

-12-

accountants or any regulatory authority or self-regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, promptly notify you, in advance, to the extent permitted by law (and if such

Commitment Party is unable to notify you in advance of such disclosure, such notice shall be delivered to you promptly thereafter to the extent permitted by law) and, to the extent such Commitment Party may legally and practically do so, allow you a

reasonable opportunity to object to such disclosure, and in any event use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any such information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment), (v) on a confidential “need to know” basis

and solely in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, to the employees, directors, legal counsel, independent auditors, professionals and other experts or agents of such Commitment Party (collectively,

Commitment Party shall be responsible for its Representatives’ compliance with this paragraph), (vi) on a confidential “need to know” basis and solely in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, to any of its

respective affiliates (provided that no such disclosure shall be made to any affiliates that are engaged as principals primarily in private equity, mezzanine financing or venture capital or that are engaged directly or indirectly in a sale of

industry regulations or such Commitment Party’s internal policies and procedures, to act in a supervisory capacity and such Commitment Party’s internal legal, compliance, risk management, credit and investment committee members (each, an

“Excluded Party”)) or their Representatives (who are informed of the confidential nature of such information and agree to keep information of this type confidential in accordance with customary practices for syndicated loans)

(provided that such Commitment Party shall be responsible for its affiliates’ and Representatives’ compliance with this paragraph), (vii) to the extent any such information becomes publicly available other than by reason of

disclosure by any Commitment Party, its affiliates or its or their Representatives in violation of any confidentiality obligations owing to you, either Sponsor, the Target and its subsidiaries, the Sellers or any of your or their respective

subsidiaries (including those set forth in this paragraph), (viii) to the extent such information was already in the possession of the Commitment Parties (except to the extent received in a manner restricted by this paragraph) or is

independently developed by the Commitment Parties or their respective affiliates based exclusively on information the disclosure of which would not otherwise be restricted by this paragraph, (ix) to the extent such information was received by

any Commitment Party from a third party that to such Commitment Party’s knowledge is not subject to confidentiality obligations owing to you, either Sponsor, the Target, Sellers or any of your or their respective subsidiaries, (x) to the

extent applicable and reasonably necessary or advisable, for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense and (xi) to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the

Lead Arrangers and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of the Facilities; provided that the disclosure of any such information to any Lenders or prospective Lenders, participants or prospective participants or

contractual counterparties, in each case referred to in clause (ii) above shall be made subject to the acknowledgment and acceptance by such Lender or prospective Lender, participant or prospective participant or such counterparty that such

Information Memorandum or other marketing materials) in accordance with the standard syndication processes of such Commitment Party or customary market standards for dissemination of such type of information. In no event shall any disclosure of

information referred to above be made to any Excluded Party or Disqualified Institution. The obligations of the Commitment Parties under this Section 9 shall remain in effect until the earlier of (a) the second

anniversary of the date hereof and (b) the date the definitive Facilities Documentation is entered into by the Commitment Parties, at which time any confidentiality undertaking in the definitive Facilities Documentation shall supersede this

provision. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9 to the contrary, we may place advertisements in financial and other newspapers

-13-

and periodicals or on a home page or similar place for dissemination of information on the Internet or World Wide Web as we may choose, and circulate similar promotional materials, after the

closing of the Transactions in the form of a “tombstone” or otherwise describing the names of you, the Borrower and your and its affiliates (or any of them), and the amount, type and closing date of the Transactions, all at our expense

and with your prior approval.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this confidentiality provision shall prohibit any person from

voluntarily disclosing or providing any information within the scope of this confidentiality provision to any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory organization (any such entity, a “Regulatory Authority”) to the extent that

any such prohibition on disclosure set forth in this confidentiality provision shall be prohibited by the laws or regulations applicable to such Regulatory Authority.

Sachs Lending Partners LLC), is intended to be solely for the benefit of the parties hereto, the Sponsors and the Indemnified Parties and is not intended to and does not confer any benefits upon, or create any rights in favor of, any person other

than the parties hereto and the Indemnified Parties to the extent expressly set forth herein, except to the extent that you and we otherwise agree in writing.

Subject to Section 3 above, the Commitment Parties reserve the right to employ the services of their affiliates or

branches (other than any Disqualified Institution) in providing services contemplated hereby (and, in connection with such employment, the Commitment Parties may, subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, exchange with such affiliates or

branches information concerning you and your affiliates in connection with the Transactions and, to the extent so employed, such affiliates and branches shall be entitled to the benefits afforded to the Commitment Parties hereunder) and to allocate,

in whole or in part, to their affiliates the fees payable to the Commitment Parties in such manner as the Commitment Parties and their affiliates may agree in their sole discretion, but no Commitment Party shall be relieved of its obligations under

this Commitment Letter. Neither this Commitment Letter nor the Fee Letter may be amended or any provision hereof waived or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by you and each party hereto or thereto. Each of the parties hereto agrees

that (x) this Commitment Letter is a binding and enforceable agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein (except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights

generally, concepts of reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and equitable principles of general applicability), it being understood and agreed that the commitments to provide the Facilities are subject to the conditions set forth in the

Conditions Exhibit (and no other conditions) and (y) the Fee Letter is a binding and enforceable agreement with respect to the subject matter contained therein (except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws

affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and equitable principles of general applicability); provided that nothing contained in this Commitment Letter obligates you or any of your

interpretation of a “Material Adverse Effect” (as defined in each Acquisition Agreement) and whether a “Material Adverse Effect” has occurred, (ii) the accuracy of any Specified Acquisition Agreement Representation and

whether as a result of any inaccuracy thereof you or your applicable affiliate has the right or would have the right (taking into account any applicable cure provisions) to terminate your (or its) obligations (or to refuse to consummate the

Acquisition and/or the JV Acquisition) under the applicable Acquisition Agreement without any liability to you (or your applicable affiliates) and (iii) whether the applicable Acquisition has been consummated in accordance with the terms of the

applicable Acquisition Agreement, will be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal Laws (as defined in the applicable Acquisition Agreement) of the State of Delaware, including its statute of limitations, without

regard to any borrowing statute that would result in the application of the statutes of limitations or repose of any other jurisdiction (in furtherance of the foregoing, the Laws (as defined in the applicable Acquisition Agreement) of the State of

Delaware will control even if under such jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive or procedural Law (as defined in the applicable Acquisition Agreement) of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily or

necessarily apply).

You and we hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or, to

the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Transactions or the other transactions contemplated

hereby, this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter or the performance of services hereunder or thereunder and agree that any such suit, action or proceeding shall be brought in such courts. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by

registered mail addressed to you or us shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court. You and we hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law,

any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in any inconvenient forum. You and we hereby irrevocably agree to waive, to

the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, trial by jury in any suit, action, proceeding, claim or counterclaim brought by or on behalf of any party related to or arising out of the Transactions, this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter or

the performance of the agreements hereunder or thereunder. A final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

-15-

Each of the Commitment Parties hereby notifies you that, pursuant to the requirements of the

USA PATRIOT Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law on October 26, 2001) (as amended, the “PATRIOT Act”) and the requirements of 31 C.F.R. §1010.230 (the

“Beneficial Ownership Regulation”), it and each Lender is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and each Guarantor, which information includes names, addresses, tax identification numbers

and other information that will allow such Commitment Party and such Lender to identify the Borrower and each Guarantor in accordance with the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. This notice is given in accordance with the

requirements of the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation and is effective for the Commitment Parties and each Lender. You hereby acknowledge and agree that the Commitment Parties shall be permitted to share any or all such information

with the Lenders.

The survival, indemnification, expense reimbursement (if applicable in accordance with the terms hereof and the Fee

Letter), jurisdiction, waiver of jury trial, governing law, service of process, venue, absence of fiduciary duty, affiliate activities, syndication, information and confidentiality provisions contained herein shall remain in full force and effect

regardless of whether definitive financing documentation shall be executed and delivered and notwithstanding the termination of this Commitment Letter or the commitments hereunder; provided that your obligations under this Commitment Letter

(other than your obligations with respect to confidentiality of the Fee Letter and the contents thereof) shall automatically terminate and be superseded by the provisions of the Facilities Documentation upon the initial funding thereunder, and you

shall automatically be released from all liability in connection therewith at such time. You may terminate this Commitment Letter and the commitments of the Commitment Parties hereunder with respect to any Facility (or a portion thereof pro rata

among the Commitment Parties under such Facility) at any time upon written notice to the Commitment Parties from you, subject to your surviving obligations as set forth in this paragraph. In addition, in the event that a lesser amount of

indebtedness is required to fund the Transactions for any reason, you may reduce the Initial Lenders’ commitments with respect to any Facility (on a pro rata basis amongst the Initial Lenders) in a manner consistent with the allocation of

purchase price reduction described under paragraph 1 of the Conditions Exhibit.

If the foregoing correctly sets

forth our agreement, please indicate your acceptance of the terms of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter by returning to us executed counterparts of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter not later than 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on

October 30, 2026. This offer will automatically expire at such time if we have not received such executed counterparts in accordance with the preceding sentence (the date of receipt by us of such executed counterparts, the “Acceptance

Date”). In the event that the initial borrowing in respect of the Initial Term Facility does not occur on or before the Expiration Time (as defined below), then this Commitment Letter and the commitments hereunder shall automatically

terminate unless we shall, in our discretion, agree to an extension. “Expiration Time” means 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the day that is the earliest of (i) the Closing Date, (ii) the valid termination by you or

your affiliates, or with the consent of you or your affiliates, of either Acquisition Agreement in accordance with its terms prior to the closing of the Acquisition and the JV Acquisition, and (iii) five business days following the Termination

Date (as defined in, and as may be extended pursuant to, each Acquisition Agreement as in effect on the date hereof, without giving effect to the last sentence of Section 12.13(a) of the Voyage Acquisition Agreement); provided that the

termination of any commitment pursuant to this sentence does not, subject to the other provisions of this Commitment Letter, prejudice your rights and remedies in respect of any prior breach or repudiation of this Commitment Letter.

(including the Definitions Annex) to the Commitment Letter to which this Transaction Summary is attached (the “Commitment Letter”) or in the Commitment Letter. In the case of any such capitalized term that is subject to multiple

and differing definitions, the appropriate meaning thereof in this Transaction Summary shall be determined by reference to the context in which it is used.

Silgan Metal Packaging LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”, and in its capacity as the

“Buyer” under and as defined in the Voyage Acquisition Agreement, the “Buyer”), formed at the direction of Silgan Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Silgan”), and American Industrial Partners

and its affiliates (collectively with the funds, partnerships or other co-investment vehicles managed, advised or controlled thereby, “AIP” and, together with Silgan, the

“Sponsors”) and certain limited partners of AIP or other investors (which may include existing shareholders, board members, management and/or other rollover investors of the Target referred to below) (collectively with the

Sponsors, the “Investors”), intends to, directly or indirectly, acquire (the “Acquisition”) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Trivium Packaging B.V., a private company with limited liability

under the laws of the Netherlands (the “Target”), pursuant to that certain Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (together with the schedules and exhibits thereto, and as may be amended, modified, supplemented or

waived from time to time in accordance with the Conditions Exhibit, the “Voyage Acquisition Agreement”), by and among the Buyer, the Target, Exal Holdings International Parent B.V., a private company with limited liability under

the laws of the Netherlands, the Sellers (as defined therein) and the Seller Representative (as defined therein).

In connection

therewith, it is intended that:

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), (i) Silgan will transfer (the “JV

Contribution”), directly or indirectly, its ownership in the business previously identified by us to you as “MetalCo” (the “MetalCo Business”) to the Borrower and (ii) AIP will, directly or indirectly,

acquire (the “JV Acquisition” and, together with the Acquisition, the “Acquisitions”) 40% of the outstanding equity interests of the Borrower (or a direct or indirect parent thereof) pursuant to that certain

Agreement” and, together with the Voyage Acquisition Agreement, the “Acquisition Agreements”), by and among Silgan, A-VL Holdco, LP and Silgan Metal Packaging LLC.

(b) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Investors will, directly or indirectly, make an equity investment (the “Investor Equity

Investment”) in the Borrower or a direct or indirect parent thereof (which equity investment, (x) if made in a direct or indirect parent of the Borrower, will, to the extent not otherwise applied, be contributed to the Borrower and

(y) if other than common equity of the Borrower, will be on terms reasonably acceptable to the Lead Arrangers, in an aggregate amount (when combined, without duplication, with (x) any rollover equity in the Target and by other existing

direct or indirect

A-1

equity holders of the Target in connection with the Acquisition (the “Rollover Equity”) and (y) the fair market value of the MetalCo Business (determined in accordance

with the JV Acquisition Agreement) (the “JV Equity” and, together with the Investor Equity Investment and the Rollover Equity, the “Equity Contribution”)) that is not less than 35.0% (the “Minimum

Equity Contribution”) of the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Facilities funded on the Closing Date (excluding (A) the effects of any exercise of the “market flex” provisions of the Fee Letter,

including any amounts incurred or borrowed under the Facilities to fund any Flex OID, (B) amounts drawn under the Revolving Facility on the Closing Date for working capital purposes and/or working capital adjustments under either Acquisition

Agreement or to replace, backstop or cash collateralize existing letters of credit, bank guarantees, bankers’ acceptances and similar documents and instruments and (C) any letters of credit, bank guarantees, bankers’ acceptances and

similar documents and instruments outstanding on the Closing Date) plus (ii) the Equity Contribution minus (iii) the aggregate amount of cash on hand at the Borrower, the Target and their respective subsidiaries on the Closing Date) (it

being understood that the Minimum Equity Contribution shall be subject to reduction as expressly set forth in paragraph (1) of Conditions Exhibit); provided that, on the Closing Date, immediately after giving effect to the Acquisitions,

the Sponsors shall, directly or indirectly, by contract or otherwise, control at least a majority of the outstanding voting equity interests of Holdings.

(c) On the Closing Date, the Borrower will obtain (i) a senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of

$4,880 million (as such amount may be increased by the amount of any loans borrowed thereunder to fund Flex OID) which senior secured term loan facility will be available in (x) a U.S. dollar tranche in an aggregate principal amount of

$2,900 million and (y) a Euro tranche in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Euro equivalent (determined on the date such term loans denominated in Euros are allocated as part of the general syndication or such other date as

reasonably agreed between the Borrower and the Lead Arrangers) of $1,980 million (the “Initial Term Facility”), as described in the Term Sheet and (ii) a senior secured revolving facility in an aggregate principal amount

of $1,000 million (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Initial Term Facility, the “Facilities”), as described in the Term Sheet.

(d) Proceeds of the Facilities received by the Borrower on the Closing Date will be used to fund (i) the payment of consideration

pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Acquisition Agreements (the “Acquisition Consideration”), and the other payments contemplated by the Buyer or its affiliates under the Acquisition Agreements, (ii) the repayment in

full (and termination of all related guarantees and security) of all indebtedness of the Target and its subsidiaries under (1) the Credit and Guarantee Agreement, dated as of May 28, 2025, among Trivium Packaging B.V., Trivium Packaging

Finance B.V., the other guarantors party thereto, J.P. Morgan SE as administrative agent, and the other agents and lenders party thereto, (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the

Summary of Principal Terms and Conditions

Set forth below is a summary of the principal terms and conditions for the Facilities. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Term

Sheet shall have the meanings set forth in the other Exhibits and Annexes (including the Definitions Annex) to the Commitment Letter to which this Term Sheet is attached (the “Commitment Letter”) or in the Commitment Letter. In

the case of any such capitalized term that is subject to multiple and differing definitions, the appropriate meaning thereof in this Term Sheet shall be determined by reference to the context in which it is used.

PARTIES

Holdings:

A newly formed entity which shall directly own 100% of the equity interests of the Borrower.

Borrower:

As set forth in Exhibit A.

Guarantors:

The obligations of the Borrower in respect of the Facilities and, at the Borrower’s option, any Loan Party’s or any restricted subsidiary’s obligations in respect of (i) any swap, hedging and cash management

obligations owed to the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger, any Lender or any affiliate of the foregoing or any other person from time to time specifically designated by the Borrower as “Swap/Cash Management Obligations”

(“Swap/Cash Management Obligations”) and (ii) reimbursement obligations in respect of letters of credit or bank guarantees issued by a third party (“Specified L/C Reimbursement Obligations”) will be jointly

and severally guaranteed by Holdings and each existing and newly acquired or created wholly-owned material domestic restricted subsidiary of the Borrower (each, a “Guarantor” and, together with the Borrower, a “Loan

Party”), in a manner, subject to the Documentation Principles, substantially consistent with the Precedent Documentation, in each case, (x) other than Excluded Subsidiaries (to be defined in a manner consistent with the Documentation

Principles) and (y) without limitation of sub-clause (x) and the following paragraph, subject to limitations, thresholds, exceptions and release provisions to be set forth in the Facilities

Documentation in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles, provided that the Borrower, in its sole discretion, may elect to designate one or more Excluded Subsidiaries to become Guarantors subject to limitations to be mutually

agreed in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles with respect to foreign subsidiaries.

B-1

For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that no guarantees will be released solely as a result of the relevant Guarantor ceasing to be a wholly-owned subsidiary unless either (I) such transaction is entered into

for a bona fide business purpose (as determined in good faith by the Borrower) and, for the avoidance of doubt, not the primary purpose of causing such release, (II) such Person ceases to constitute a “Subsidiary” under the

Facilities Documentation or (III) such Person otherwise constitutes an Excluded Subsidiary (other than solely on account of constituting a non-wholly owned Subsidiary).

Administrative Agent:

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent in respect of the Facilities, the “Administrative Agent”).

Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners:

Wells Fargo Securities, Goldman Sachs, RBCCM, DBSI and Bank of America will act as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners for the Facilities (together with any Additional Arranger appointed by the Borrower as contemplated in the

Commitment Letter, each in such capacity, a “Lead Arranger” and, collectively, the “Lead Arrangers”) and will perform the duties customarily associated with such role.

Lenders:

A syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders, including the Initial Lenders, arranged by the Lead Arrangers and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, but excluding Disqualified Institutions

(collectively, the “Lenders”); provided that nothing herein shall affect the consent rights of the Borrower set forth below under the heading “Assignments and Participations”.

2. FACILITIES

Type and Amount:

(A) A senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $4,880 million (as such amount may be increased by the amount of any loans borrowed thereunder to fund Flex OID, which amount shall be automatically

added to the Commitment Parties’ commitments under the Commitment Letter), consisting of U.S. dollar and euro tranches made available to the Borrower as (i) a U.S. dollar tranche in an aggregate principal amount of $2,900 million

(such facility, the “Initial Dollar Term Facility”) and (ii) a Euro tranche in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Euro equivalent (determined on the date such term loans denominated in Euros are allocated as part of

the general syndication or such other date as reasonably agreed between the Borrower and the Lead Arrangers) of $1,980 million (such facility, the “Initial Euro Term Facility”, and, together with the “Initial Dollar

Term Facility”, collectively, the “Initial Term Facility” and the loans thereunder, the “Term Loans”).

(B) A senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000 million (the “Revolving Facility”, the commitments thereunder, the “Revolving Commitments”), which

will be available to the Borrower, of which $200 million (the “L/C Sublimit”) will be available in the form of letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”). The loans under the Revolving Facility, together with

(unless the context otherwise requires) the Swingline Loans referred to below, are referred to as “Revolving Loans”. The Revolving Facility shall be available in

B-2

U.S. Dollars, Mexican Pesos, Euros, Canadian Dollars, Pounds Sterling, Swedish Krona, Australian Dollars and any other currencies reasonably acceptable to each Revolving Lender.

In connection with the Revolving Facility, the Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Swingline Lender”) will make available to the Borrower a swingline facility (the loans thereunder, the

“Swingline Loans”) under which such Borrower may make borrowings of up to $200 million. Except for purposes of calculating the commitment fee described below, any such swingline borrowings will reduce availability under the

Revolving Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

Each Lender under the Revolving Facility (“Revolving Lender”) shall, promptly upon request by the Swingline Lender, fund to the Swingline Lender its pro rata share of any swingline borrowings.

If any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender (to be defined in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles) then the swingline exposure of such Defaulting Lender will automatically be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders under the Revolving Facility pro rata in accordance with their commitments under the Revolving Facility up to an amount such that the revolving credit exposure of such non-Defaulting Lender does not exceed its commitments. In the event such reallocation does not fully cover the exposure of such Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender may require the Borrower to repay such

“uncovered” exposure in respect of the swingline loans and will have no obligation to make new swingline loans to the extent such swingline loans would exceed the commitments of the non-Defaulting

Lenders under the Revolving Facility.

The Borrower shall have the right to terminate the commitment of any Defaulting Lender to the extent such termination does not cause the revolving credit exposure to exceed the revolving credit commitments under the Revolving

Facility.

Maturity and Amortization:

(A) The Initial Term Facility will mature on the date that is seven years after the Closing Date (the “Term Maturity Date”). The Initial Dollar Term Facility will amortize in equal quarterly installments

(commencing with the third full fiscal quarter ended after the Closing Date) in an aggregate annual amount equal to 1.00% of the original principal amount of the Initial Dollar Term Facility, subject to reduction in connection with debt prepayments

and debt buybacks, with the balance payable on the Term Maturity Date. The Initial Euro Term Facility will not be subject to amortization and the balance thereof will be payable on the Term Maturity Date.

(B) The Revolving Facility will mature, and lending commitments thereunder will terminate, on the date that is five years after the Closing Date. The Revolving Facility will not be subject to amortization.

B-3

Availability:

(A) The Initial Term Facility will be available in a single drawing on the Closing Date. Amounts borrowed under the Initial Term Facility that are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

(B) The Revolving Facility will be available on (subject to the limitations set forth in the next two succeeding sentences) and after the Closing Date and at any time prior to the final maturity of the Revolving Facility. The

Revolving Facility will be made available on the Closing Date to (a) fund a portion of the Transactions, (b) cash collateralize, replace or provide credit support for any existing letters of credit outstanding on the Closing Date under

facilities no longer available to the Borrower, the Target or their respective subsidiaries as of the Closing Date and (c) fund the purchase of cash and any working capital needs of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (including pursuant to any

working capital adjustment and/or purchase price adjustments in either Acquisition Agreement); provided that amounts borrowed pursuant to clause (a) on the Closing Date shall not exceed $200 million in the aggregate.

Additionally, Letters of Credit may be issued on the Closing Date in order to, among other things, backstop or replace existing letters of credit and for other purposes to be mutually agreed. Otherwise, letters of credit and

Revolving Loans will be available at any time prior to the final maturity of the Revolving Facility, in minimum principal amounts to be agreed upon. Amounts repaid under the Revolving Facility may be reborrowed.

Use of Proceeds:

(A) The proceeds of the Initial Term Facility will be used, together with the Equity Contribution and cash on hand of the Target and its subsidiaries, (i) to finance all or a portion of the Transactions (including working

capital and/or purchase price adjustments and the payment of Transaction Costs) and (ii) for general corporate purposes.

(B) The Letters of Credit and proceeds of Revolving Loans will be used by the Borrower and its subsidiaries for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes (including permitted acquisitions, investments,

restricted payments and other transactions not prohibited under the Facilities Documentation).

Letters of Credit:

Letters of Credit under the Revolving Facility will be issued by Revolving Lenders (each an “Issuing Bank”), on a pro rata basis, in accordance with each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitments in respect

of the Revolving Facility, and otherwise in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and each Issuing Bank. The face amount of any outstanding Letter of Credit (and, without duplication, any unpaid drawing in respect thereof) will reduce

availability under the Revolving Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Letters of Credit will be available in any currency available under the Revolving Facility. DBNY,

Goldman Sachs and RBC shall not be required to issue any Letters of Credit other than standby Letters of Credit.

B-4

Drawings under any Letter of Credit shall be reimbursed by the Borrower (whether with its own funds or with the proceeds of Revolving Loans) within one business day after notice of such drawing is received by the Borrower from the

relevant Issuing Bank (with interest payable thereon as customarily provided).

3. INCREMENTAL AND REFINANCING FACILITIES

Type and Amount:

The Borrower or any Guarantor will have the right from time to time, on one or more occasions, to (a) increase the size of the Initial Term Facility or any Incremental Term Facility or add one or more incremental term loan

facilities (each, an “Incremental Term Facility” and, collectively, the “Incremental Term Facilities” and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Term Loans”) in minimum amounts to be agreed and

(b) increase the size of the Revolving Facility or any Incremental Revolving Facility or add one or more incremental revolving credit facilities under the Revolving Facility (any such revolving credit facility, an “Incremental

Revolving Facility” and, collectively, the “Incremental Revolving Facilities”; the Incremental Term Facilities and the Incremental Revolving Facilities are collectively referred to as “Incremental

Facilities”) (the loans under any Incremental Revolving Facility shall be the “Incremental Revolving Loans”); provided that the aggregate principal amount of all such Incremental Facilities outstanding at any time

shall not exceed (the amount under clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d), collectively, the “Available Incremental Amount”) the sum of:

(a) an amount equal to the greater of (i) 100% of Financing EBITDA and (ii) 100% of Consolidated EBITDA, calculated on a pro forma basis, for the most recently ended Test Period, plus solely in the case of any

Incremental Revolving Facility, an amount such that the aggregate Revolving Commitments do not exceed the greater of (i) 100% of Financing EBITDA and (ii) 100% of Consolidated EBITDA, plus any unused portion of the General Debt Basket or the

Incremental Equivalent/Ratio Debt Starter Basket that the Borrower elects to instead apply to increase the Available Incremental Amount (the “Debt Basket Reallocated Amount”), minus the aggregate outstanding principal

amount of debt incurred pursuant to clause (B) of the definition of Incremental Equivalent/Ratio Debt (as defined below) (the “Incremental Dollar Basket”), plus

(b) (X) the aggregate amount of all voluntary prepayments, redemptions and repurchases and payments utilizing yank-a-bank provisions (or, in the

case of any revolving facility, permanent commitment reductions) in respect of (i) the initial Term Loans or Revolving Facility, (ii) any Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Revolving Facility or any Incremental Equivalent/Ratio Debt

incurred pursuant to the Incremental Dollar Basket or the Incremental Prepayments Basket, and (iii) any other indebtedness secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or senior basis to the Initial Term Facility (and all debt buybacks of any of

the foregoing with credit given to the principal amount of the debt

B-5

purchased and all prepayments and permanent commitment reductions of any of the foregoing in connection with “yank-a-bank” provisions), in

each case, at or prior to such time (other than any such prepayments funded with the proceeds of long-term indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries (other than (I) revolving indebtedness and intercompany loans or

(II) without duplication, any Incremental Facility or Incremental Equivalent/Ratio Debt then being incurred in reliance on the Incremental Prepayments Basket)) and (Y) the amount of any voluntary prepayments, redemptions, repurchases and

debt buybacks (in the principal amount of the indebtedness subject thereto) and payments utilizing yank-a-bank provisions in respect of (and, solely with respect to

revolving credit facilities, permanent commitment reductions under) any Refinancing Debt (or other refinancing indebtedness) previously applied to the prepayment, redemption, repurchase, buyback or permanent commitment reduction, as applicable, of

any of the foregoing set forth under clause (b)(X) above (except to the extent funded with proceeds of long-term indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries (other than (I) revolving indebtedness and intercompany loans or

(II) without duplication, any Incremental Facility or Incremental Equivalent/Ratio Debt then being incurred in reliance on the Incremental Prepayments Basket)) (the amount calculated pursuant to this clause (b), the “Incremental

Prepayments Basket”), plus

(c) in the case of any Incremental Facility that serves to effectively extend the maturity of the initial Term Loans and/or other term indebtedness and commitments under the Revolving Facility and/or other revolving facilities or

other unfunded commitments, in each case, that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or senior basis to the Initial Term Facility or that were incurred in reliance on the Incremental Dollar Basket or the Incremental Prepayments Basket, an

amount equal to the portion of the initial Term Loans and/or other term indebtedness and commitments under the Revolving Facility and/or other revolving facilities or other unfunded commitments, as applicable, to be replaced with such indebtedness;

plus

(d) an unlimited amount, so long as, in the case of this clause (d), after giving effect to the incurrence of such amount and the use of proceeds thereof (including giving pro forma effect to any acquisition or other transaction

consummated in connection therewith and other appropriate pro forma adjustments),

(i) in the case of an Incremental Facility secured on a pari passu basis with the Initial Term Facility, the First Lien

Net Leverage Ratio, on a pro forma basis, does not exceed the greater of (x) 4.32:1.00 and (y) the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio immediately preceding the incurrence of such Incremental Facility (the amount calculated pursuant to this clause

(d)(i), the “Pari Incremental Ratio Basket”),

B-6

either (x) the Cash Interest Coverage Ratio, on a pro forma basis, is not less than the lesser of (1) 1.50:1.00 and (2) the Cash Interest Coverage Ratio immediately preceding the incurrence of such Incremental Facility or (y) the

Secured Net Leverage Ratio, on a pro forma basis, does not exceed the greater of (1) 4.82:1.00 and (2) the Secured Net Leverage Ratio immediately preceding the incurrence of such Incremental Facility (the amount calculated pursuant to this

clause (d)(ii), the “Junior Incremental Ratio Basket”), and

(iii) in the case of an Incremental Term Facility that is secured by assets that do not constitute Collateral or that

is unsecured, either (x) the Cash Interest Coverage Ratio, on a pro forma basis, is not less than the lesser of (1) 1.50:1.00 and (2) the Cash Interest Coverage Ratio immediately preceding the incurrence of such Incremental Facility or

(y) the Total Net Leverage Ratio, on a pro forma basis, does not exceed the greater of (1) 5.32:1.00 and (2) the Total Net Leverage Ratio immediately preceding the incurrence of such Incremental Facility (the amount calculated pursuant to

this clause (d)(iii), the “Unsecured Incremental Ratio Basket”);

provided that with respect to any Incremental Term Facility in the form of a delayed draw term loan facility (an “Incremental Delayed Draw Facility”), such Incremental Delayed Draw Facility shall either, as

selected by the Borrower in its sole discretion, (X) be assumed to be fully drawn on the date such Incremental Delayed Draw Facility is established or (Y) otherwise require capacity under the Available Incremental Amount with respect to

each Incremental Term Loan funded thereunder, in each case under this sub-clause (Y), tested on the applicable date of funding thereof.

The incurrence of any Incremental Facility shall be subject to satisfaction of the following conditions:

1. such Incremental Facility shall not be guaranteed by any restricted subsidiary of

the Borrower that is not a Guarantor and shall be secured on a pari passu or subordinated basis to the Initial Term Facility or shall be unsecured and shall not be secured by any assets of any Loan Party not constituting Collateral;

2. (A) in the case of an Incremental Term Facility, except in the case of Permitted

Earlier Maturity Debt, any such Incremental Term Facility will have a final maturity no earlier than the final maturity of the Initial Term Facility and the weighted average life to maturity of any such Incremental Term Facility shall not be shorter

than the then remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Initial Dollar Term Facility (determined without giving effect to any prepayments); and (B) any Incremental Revolving Facility will have a final maturity no earlier than the final

maturity of the initial Revolving Facility;

B-7

3. (A) any such Incremental Revolving Facility shall either (i) be subject to

the same terms and conditions as the Revolving Facility (and be deemed added to, and made a part of, the Revolving Facility) (it being understood that, if required to consummate an Incremental Revolving Facility, the Borrower may increase the

pricing, interest rate margins, rate floors and undrawn fees on the applicable Revolving Facility being increased for all lenders under such Revolving Facility, but additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the lenders participating in

such Incremental Revolving Facility without any requirement to pay such amounts to any existing Revolving Lenders) or (ii) mature no earlier than, and require no scheduled mandatory commitment reduction prior to, the maturity of the initial

Revolving Facility and all other material terms (other than pricing, maturity, upfront, arrangement, structuring, underwriting, ticking, consent, amendment and other fees, participation in mandatory prepayments or commitment reductions and

immaterial terms, which shall be determined by the Borrower) shall (x) be substantially identical to the initial Revolving Facility or (y) be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being understood that if any financial

maintenance covenant or other more favorable provision is added for the benefit of any Incremental Revolving Facility, no consent shall be required from the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the extent that such financial maintenance covenant or

other provision is (1) also added for the benefit of any existing Revolving Facility or (2) only applicable after the latest maturity of any existing Revolving Facility); (B) any Incremental Term Facility may provide for the ability to

participate on a pro rata basis, or on a less than or greater than pro rata basis, in any voluntary prepayments of the term loans (or mandatory prepayment with proceeds of Refinancing Debt), and on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but

not greater than pro rata basis) in any other mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans (except that the Borrower shall be permitted to prepay any class of term loans on a greater than pro rata basis as compared to any other class of term loans with a

later maturity date than such class);

4. to the extent required by the lenders providing such Incremental Facility, no

payment or bankruptcy (with respect to the Borrower) event of default shall have occurred and be continuing or would immediately result therefrom; provided that, in the case of a Limited Condition Transaction (to be defined in a manner

consistent with the Documentation Principles), a permitted acquisition or other investment, such requirement shall be limited to no payment or bankruptcy (with respect to the Borrower) event of default determined as of the LCT Test Date (to be

defined in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles);

B-8

5. no Lender shall be required to participate in any Incremental Facility without its

consent;

6. except as otherwise

required or permitted above, all other terms of such Incremental Facility will be agreed between the Borrower and the lenders providing such Incremental Facility; and

7. the currency, pricing, interest rate margins, discounts, premiums, rate floors, fees and prepayment

terms applicable to any Incremental Facility shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereunder; provided that solely in the case of any Incremental Term Facility that (1) is incurred under clause (d) of the Available Incremental

Amount, (2) is secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the initial Term Loans, (3) is in the form of floating rate term loan “B” U.S. dollar or euro denominated credit facilities, as applicable, (4) is broadly syndicated

(the “Broadly Syndicated Exception”), (5) matures on or prior to the maturity date of the initial Term Loans (the “Outside Maturity Threshold”), (6) is incurred prior to the date that is six months after the

Closing Date (such date, the “MFN Sunset Date”), (7) has 100% cash interest and (8) is not incurred in connection with a permitted acquisition or other permitted investment (including capital expenditures) or to refinance any

indebtedness originally incurred for such purposes (the “Acquisition Exception”) (provided that the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, exclude any Incremental Term Facility from application of the MFN Provision that is

not otherwise excluded from the MFN Provision in an aggregate initial principal amount of up to the greater of (i) 250% of Financing EBITDA and (ii) 250% of Consolidated EBITDA calculated on a pro forma basis for the most recently ended Test Period

(this proviso, the “MFN Threshold”)), if the interest rate margin applicable to any such Incremental Term Facility (after giving effect to all stepdowns applicable thereto) determined as of the initial funding date for such

Incremental Term Facility is more than 1.00% (the “MFN Differential”) higher than the highest interest rate margin applicable to the Initial Term Facility, then the interest rate margin for the Initial Term Facility denominated in

the same currency shall be increased by an amount equal to the difference between the interest rate margin with respect to such Incremental Term Facility (after giving effect to all stepdowns applicable thereto) and the highest interest rate margin

on the Initial Term Facility denominated in the same currency, minus the MFN Differential (the “MFN Provision”).

The lenders providing any Incremental Facility shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (and in the case of any Incremental Revolving

Facility, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender to the extent required under “Assignments and Participations” below).

B-9

The Facilities Documentation will permit the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries to utilize availability under the Incremental Facilities to issue or incur Incremental Equivalent/Ratio Debt as set forth under “Negative

Covenants” below.

“Financing EBITDA” means $1,102 million.

“Permitted Earlier Maturity Debt” means at the option of the Borrower (in its sole discretion), indebtedness incurred with a final maturity date prior to the earliest maturity date otherwise required under the

Facilities Documentation with respect to such indebtedness and/or a weighted average life to maturity shorter than the minimum weighted average life to maturity otherwise required under this Facilities Documentation with respect to such indebtedness

(i) in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed the greater of (a) 250% of Financing EBITDA and (b) 250% of Consolidated EBITDA, calculated on a pro forma basis for the most recently ended Test Period, (ii) constituting

bridge loan the terms of which provide for an automatic extension of the maturity date thereof, subject to customary conditions, to a date that is not earlier than the latest maturity date of the Initial Term Facility (“Extendable Bridge

Loans”), (iii) incurred pursuant to the Debt Basket Reallocated Amount or (iv) solely for purposes of meeting any weighted average life to maturity condition, such indebtedness has amortization of up to 1.00% per annum, in each case,

solely to the extent the final maturity date of such indebtedness is restricted from occurring prior to such earliest maturity date, or the weighted average life to maturity of such Indebtedness is restricted from being shorter than the minimum

weighted average life to maturity otherwise required, under the applicable basket.

“Test Period” means, on any date of determination, with respect to the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, (x) for purposes of determining (i) the applicable percentage of

Excess Cash Flow, (ii) the Applicable Margin and the commitment fee rate, (iii) the Asset Sale Prepayment Step-ups and (iv) compliance with the Financial Covenant, the four (4) consecutive

fiscal quarters of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries most recently then ended and for which a compliance certificate has been delivered and (y) for all other purposes, the four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower and

its restricted subsidiaries most recently then ended in respect of which financial statements are internally available (as determined in good faith by the Borrower); provided that, in the case of clause (y) above, at the option of the Borrower,

the Test Period may instead be the most recent period of twelve consecutive fiscal months of the Borrower ended on or prior to such date of determination (taken as one accounting period) in respect of which internal monthly financials are available

(as determined in good faith by the Borrower) for each fiscal month in such period.

B-10

Use of Proceeds:

The proceeds of the Incremental Facilities will be used for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes (including permitted acquisitions and payment of permitted dividends) of the Borrower and its

subsidiaries and any other purpose not prohibited by the Facilities Documentation.

Refinancing Debt:

The Facilities Documentation will permit the Borrower to (a) refinance the Revolving Commitments or commitments under any Incremental Revolving Facility from time to time, in whole or part, with one or more new revolving credit

facilities (each, a “Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility”) under the Facilities Documentation with the consent of the Borrower and the institutions providing the Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility, (b) refinance Term

Loans or loans or commitments under any Incremental Term Facility from time to time, in whole or part, with one or more new term facilities (each, a “Refinancing Term Facility”) under the Facilities Documentation with the consent

of the Borrower and the institutions providing the Refinancing Term Facility, and (c) refinance Term Loans or loans or commitments under any Incremental Term Facility from time to time, in whole or part, or Revolving Loans or Revolving

Commitments or loans or commitments under any Incremental Revolving Facility with one or more (x) series of senior, senior subordinated or subordinated unsecured notes or loans or (y) series of notes or loans that will be secured by the

Collateral (A) on a pari passu basis with the Initial Term Facility or (B) on a junior priority basis to the Initial Term Facility, which will be subject to a “market” intercreditor agreement or other customary intercreditor

arrangements or such other intercreditor terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (each, a “Specified Intercreditor Agreement”) (the debt described in this clause (c), “Refinancing

Notes”; the Refinancing Notes, together with each Refinancing Term Facility and Refinancing Revolving Credit Facility, collectively, the “Refinancing Debt”); provided that:

1. other than Permitted Earlier Maturity Debt, no Refinancing Debt shall mature prior

to the maturity date of the facility being refinanced or, in the case of a Refinancing Term Facility, have a shorter weighted average life to maturity (determined without giving effect to any prepayments) than loans under the Initial Dollar Term

Facility or Incremental Term Facility being refinanced;

2. no Refinancing Debt shall be borrowed or guaranteed by any restricted subsidiary

that is not a Loan Party;

3. if secured, such Refinancing Debt shall not be secured by any property or assets

of any Loan Party that does not constitute Collateral; and

4. the proceeds of such Refinancing Debt shall be promptly applied to permanently

repay in whole or in part the loans under the facility being refinanced, and such Refinancing Debt shall not be

B-11

in an aggregate principal amount greater than the principal or committed amount of the facility being refinanced,

plus additional amounts to the extent otherwise permitted to be incurred under the Facilities Documentation; plus any fees, premium, original issue discount and accrued interest associated therewith, and costs and expenses related

thereto.

In connection with any Refinancing Debt, the Facilities Documentation will provide the Borrower the right to require the applicable lenders to assign their loans and commitments to the providers of any such Refinancing Debt.

5. CERTAIN PAYMENT PROVISIONS

Fees and Interest Rates:

As set forth on Annex I to this Term Sheet.

Closing Fees:

As set forth in the Fee Letter.

Optional Prepayments and Commitment Reductions:

The Facilities may be prepaid, and commitments may be reduced, in whole or in part, at the option of the Borrower, without premium or penalty (except as set forth in the next paragraph), in minimum amounts to be agreed, upon same

day notice (or, in the case of a prepayment of SOFR Loans or EURIBOR Loans (as defined in Annex I), three business days’ prior notice) (which may be conditioned upon the occurrence of a refinancing or other event).

In the case of (a) any optional prepayment of Term Loans (or mandatory prepayment pursuant to clause (b) under the heading “Mandatory Prepayments”) with the proceeds of, or any exchange of Term Loans

into, any new or replacement broadly syndicated pari passu secured long-term term loan “B” credit facility denominated in the same currency as the subject Term Loans and having a lower all-in-yield than the all-in-yield of the Initial Term Facility or (b) any “repricing” amendment (and any

mandatory assignment by a Lender in connection therewith) of the Initial Term Facility which reduces the all-in yield of the Initial Term Facility, in each case prior to the date that is six months after the

Closing Date (the “Prepayment Premium End Date”) and where the primary purpose (as determined by the Borrower in good faith) of such prepayment, exchange or amendment is to reduce the all-in-yield of the Initial Term Facility, the Borrower shall pay a 1.00% prepayment fee with respect to any Term Loans so prepaid, exchanged or subject to such “repricing” amendment;

provided that no such fee shall be payable (A) in connection with any transaction that would, if consummated, constitute (i) a change of control, (ii) a qualifying IPO, (iii) a disposition, the consideration for which

exceeds the lesser of (x) 25% of Financing EBITDA and (y) 25% of Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended Test Period, (iv) a dividend recapitalization (the “Prepayment Premium Dividend Exception”), (v) any transaction

resulting in an upsizing of the Initial Term Facility (the “Prepayment

Test Period or (vii) any other transaction not otherwise permitted by the Facilities Documentation or that would not provide the Borrower with sufficient operational flexibility or (B) (i) if such prepayment is made with internally

generated cash or (ii) to any Lender that continues (or an affiliate thereof continues) to be a Lender under the Initial Term Facility in connection with a refinancing.

All voluntary prepayments (including from the proceeds of Refinancing Debt) shall be applied as directed by the Borrower (and in the absence of such direction, in direct order of maturity), which may be applied to any specific class

or classes, tranche or tranches or facility or facilities as selected by the Borrower; provided that such prepayments shall be made on a pro rata basis within such class, tranche or facility.

Mandatory Prepayments:

If at any time the aggregate amount of outstanding loans, unreimbursed letter of credit drawings and undrawn letters of credit under the Revolving Facility exceeds the commitments under the Revolving Facility, then the Borrower will

immediately repay outstanding loans and cash collateralize outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Facility in an aggregate amount equal to such excess, with no reduction of the commitments.

Mandatory prepayments of the Initial Term Facility shall be required in an amount equal to:

(a) the Net Cash Proceeds Percentage of the net cash proceeds of any non-ordinary course sale or other disposition of fixed assets constituting Collateral pursuant to the

“unlimited” asset sale basket and any casualty or condemnation event suffered with respect to fixed assets constituting Collateral by the Borrower or any Loan Party in excess of an amount to be agreed per transaction (or series of

related transactions) and an amount to be agreed per fiscal year that are not excluded pursuant to the per transaction exclusion (with only such excess amount being subject to prepayment) and subject to the right of the Borrower and its restricted

subsidiaries to (i) reinvest such proceeds in the business of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries if such proceeds are reinvested within 24 months following receipt (or, if the Borrower or a restricted subsidiary has contractually

committed to reinvest such proceeds within 24 months following receipt, 30 months following receipt) and (ii) make restricted payments (subject to available capacity under any restricted payment basket) with such proceeds in lieu of the

reinvestment thereof (provided that the Borrower may elect to deem expenditures that otherwise would be permissible reinvestments that occur prior to receipt of the proceeds of an asset sale or other disposition to have been reinvested in

accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, further, that such deemed expenditure shall have been made no earlier than the earliest of (i) one year prior to such asset sale or disposition, (ii) notice of such intended

asset sale or disposition, (iii) execution of a definitive agreement for such asset sale or disposition and (iv) consummation of such asset sale or disposition) (any such asset sale proceeds pursuant to this clause (a) not so applied

as a mandatory prepayment, the “Retained Asset Sale Proceeds”);

B-13

“Net Cash Proceeds Percentage” means (i) 0%, if the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than the greater of (x) 4.50:1.00 or (y) the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date plus

0.25:1.00, (ii) 50%, if the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than the greater of (x) 5.00:1.00 or (y) the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date plus 0.75:1.00, but greater than the greater of (x) 4.50:1.00 or

(y) the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date plus 0.25:1.00 and (iii) 100%, if the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is greater than the greater of (x) 5.00:1.00 or (y) the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date

plus 0.75:1.00; provided that, in each case, such First Lien Net Leverage Ratio shall be determined, at the Borrower’s option, at the time of such disposition, at the time of entry into a definitive agreement with respect thereto or at

the time of application of the net cash proceeds therefrom) (and the Net Cash Proceeds Percentage may, at the Borrower’s option, be tested at any time during the reinvestment period, and shall apply to amounts subject to the reinvestment

rights set forth above during such periods);

(b) 100% of the net cash proceeds from issuances or incurrences of debt by the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries (other than debt permitted by the Facilities Documentation, except for Refinancing Debt that refinances the

Initial Term Facility); and

(c) commencing with the first full fiscal year ended after the Closing Date, 0% of Excess Cash Flow for each fiscal year of the Borrower (“Excess Cash Flow” to be defined consistent with the Documentation

Principles as modified as reasonably necessary to (i) more accurately reflect the business and financial accounting of the Borrower and its subsidiaries after giving effect to the Transactions and (ii) address technical clarifications);

(i) provided that such prepayment percentage shall be increased to (x) 25% if (x) the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio would be greater than the greater of (i) 4.50:1.00 or (ii) the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date

plus 0.25:1.00 but less than the greater of (x) 5.00:1.00 or (y) the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date plus 0.75:1.00 and (y) 50% if the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is greater than the greater of (i) 5.00:1.00 or

(ii) the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date plus 0.75:1.00, as calculated at the time of the respective payment and recalculated to give pro forma effect to any such prepayment; (ii) provided,

further, that at the Borrower’s option the amount of such prepayment shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar by (A)(x) the amount of any voluntary prepayment,

redemptions and repurchases of (1) the loans under the Initial Term Facility, any Incremental Term Facility, any Refinancing Debt (other than a revolving credit facility) and any Incremental Equivalent/Ratio Debt, (2) any other term

indebtedness, (3) any revolving credit facility (including the Revolving Facility and Refinancing Debt consisting of

B-14

revolving credit facilities and any incremental facility thereunder) (to the extent such other revolving credit facility is secured by the Collateral and accompanied by a permanent reduction of the corresponding commitment) and

(4) any refinancing, replacement or extension of any of the foregoing (in each case, including any debt buyback conducted pursuant to a Dutch Auction or open market purchase or other privately negotiated transaction, with credit given in an

amount equal to the cash purchase price), but excluding any such prepayments funded with the proceeds of long-term indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries (other than revolving loans and intercompany loans), in each case

made (or committed to be made) during such fiscal year and, at the option of the Borrower, made after fiscal year-end and prior to the payment due date, (y) amounts used to repay borrowings of Revolving

Loans made to account for any Flex OID and (z) among other things, but in each case under this clause (z) to the extent not financed with long term indebtedness (other than revolving indebtedness or intercompany loans), cash used

for reorganization and restructuring expenses, expenses incurred in connection with cost savings initiatives, capital expenditures, permitted investments, permitted acquisitions, restricted payments, payments of seller notes and earn-outs (including

reorganization and restructuring expenses, expenses incurred in connection with cost savings initiatives, contracted (but not yet consummated) and planned capital expenditures, acquisitions and other investments and restricted payments, and planned

acquisitions and certain other investments subject to a binding letter of intent so long as (1) such amounts are planned or contractually committed by the date the relevant Excess Cash Flow prepayment is due, (2) such amounts are utilized

(and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be deducted when used) during the fiscal year following such Excess Cash Flow period and (3) any amounts not utilized during such fiscal year following such Excess Cash Flow period shall be included

in the calculation of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year (the foregoing clauses (1), (2) and (3), the “Contracted Amounts Provisions”)), in each case made (or committed to be made) during such fiscal year and, at the option of

the Borrower, made (or committed to be made) after fiscal year-end and prior to the payment due date (in each case under this clause (ii), except to the extent financed with long-term indebtedness of the

Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries (other than revolving indebtedness or intercompany loans)).

The First Lien Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of determining the applicable excess cash flow percentage above shall be recalculated to give pro forma effect to any such mandatory prepayment and any other repayment or prepayment

prior to the time such excess cash flow prepayment is due. Prepayments of Excess Cash Flow shall be required only if the amount required to be prepaid is greater than the greater of (x) 30% of Financing EBITDA and (y) 30% of Consolidated EBITDA

calculated on a pro forma basis for the most recently ended Test Period (and solely to the extent of such excess).

B-15

Each mandatory prepayment of the loans under the Initial Term Facility shall be applied in direct order of maturity to the remaining installments of the Initial Term Facility or as otherwise directed by the Borrower.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender may elect not to accept its pro rata share of any mandatory prepayment (other than a prepayment with Refinancing Debt), in which case the amount so rejected may be retained by the Borrower

(any amounts retained by the Borrower, the “Declined Amounts”). Any Declined Amount by the Lenders or, if applicable, under any Additional Debt, may be retained by the Borrower and such Declined Amount shall increase the Available

Amount Basket.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Facilities Documentation will provide that in the event any debt is issued or incurred that is secured by liens on Collateral (collectively, “Additional Debt”), such Additional

Debt may share no more than ratably in any prepayments required by the foregoing provisions of the Excess Cash Flow sweep and the asset sale proceeds sweep (or on a greater than ratable basis with respect to any indebtedness with an earlier maturity

date than the Initial Term Facility).

All mandatory prepayments shall be subject to permissibility under (i) local law (e.g., financial assistance, corporate benefit, thin capitalization, capital maintenance, restrictions on repatriating or upstreaming of cash

intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant subsidiaries) and (ii) material organizational document restrictions (including as a result of minority ownership) and restrictions in other material

agreements. Further, there will be no requirement to make any mandatory prepayment attributable to the Excess Cash Flow or net cash proceeds of a foreign subsidiary if the Borrower determines that the Loan Parties or any of their subsidiaries or

direct or indirect parent companies or equityholders could suffer material adverse tax costs or consequences as a result of repatriating or upstreaming such amounts (taking into account the imposition of withholding taxes). Notwithstanding the

foregoing, any prepayments actually made shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes that would be incurred or payable by the Loan Parties or any of their subsidiaries, affiliates or direct or indirect equity owners as a result of repatriating such

amounts.

6. COLLATERAL

Collateral:

Subject to the Limited Conditionality Provision and the Documentation Principles, the obligations under the Facilities, the Swap/Cash Management Obligations and the Specified L/C Reimbursement Obligations will be secured by, subject

to permitted liens and other exceptions consistent with the Documentation Principles, first priority liens on the Collateral of each Loan Party, (x) other than Excluded Property (to be defined in a manner consistent with the Documentation

Principles) and (y) without limitation of sub-clause (x), subject to limitations, thresholds, exceptions and release provisions to be set forth in the Facilities Documentation in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles.

B-16

Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, in addition to other exceptions and limitations to be set forth in the Facilities Documentation in a manner consistent with the Documentation

Principles, in no event shall the Borrower or any guarantor be required to (i) create any security interests in leased or owned real estate or to perfect such security interests, (ii) except with respect to the assets of a foreign

subsidiary that, at the election of the Borrower, becomes a guarantor, create any security interests in assets located, titled, registered or filed outside of the United States or to perfect such security interests or (iii) deliver

(a) control agreements, (b) other similar third party documents, or (c) except with respect to the assets of a foreign subsidiary that, at the election of the Borrower, becomes a guarantor, to the extent governed under the laws of a

jurisdiction other than the United States, security agreements, pledge agreements, or share charge (or mortgage) agreements.

of all other immaterial subsidiaries, after eliminating intercompany obligations) in excess of 10.0% of the total assets of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries or (b) Consolidated EBITDA (when combined with the Consolidated EBITDA of

all other immaterial subsidiaries) in excess of 10.0% of the Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries.

purposes of the commitment fee)) and (II) permit the Borrower, in its sole discretion, to secure and guarantee Specified L/C Reimbursement Obligations (it being understood that such utilization of the L/C Sublimit pursuant to Specified L/C

Reimbursement Obligations shall be deemed to constitute utilization of capacity under the L/C Sublimit (provided that any such utilization of the L/C Sublimit shall not be deemed to constitute utilization for purposes of the commitment

fee)).

Specified Acquisition Agreement Representations) to be true and correct on the Closing Date will not constitute the failure of a condition precedent to funding under any Facility and the failure of any representation or warranty (other than the

Specified Representations) to be true and correct on the Closing Date will not constitute a default under any Facility.

B-28

investments and restricted payments (the “Available RDP Amount Basket”) and (iii) reallocate amounts available for restricted payments under the restricted payments covenant to make additional investments and

Restricted Junior Debt Payments (the “Available RP Amount Basket”), in each case, subject to a dollar for dollar reduction of such investment, Restricted Junior Debt Payment and/or restricted payment capacity upon utilization

thereof (or with respect to investments made in reliance on the Available RP Amount Basket, every $1.5 utilized shall count as $1.0 of basket usage) and dollar for dollar increases by the amount of any returns (or with respect to the making of

investments in reliance on the Available RP Amount Basket, by $1.0 for every $1.5 of returns on such Investments).

If any amount is incurred (including under the Revolving Facility) or transaction entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (any such amount, the

“Fixed Amount”) substantially concurrently with any amount incurred or transaction entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision that requires compliance with a financial ratio or test (any such amount, the

“Incurrence-Based Amount”), (x) incurrence of such amount under the Incurrence-Based Amount shall first be calculated without giving effect to any amount incurred under the Fixed Amount, but giving full pro forma effect to the use

of proceeds of all such amounts and concurrent related transactions and (y) thereafter, incurrence of the portion of such amount under the Fixed Amount shall be calculated. Unless the Borrower elects otherwise, the Borrower shall be deemed to

have used amounts under an Incurrence-Based Amount then available to the Borrower prior to utilization of any amount under a Fixed Amount then available to the Borrower. The Borrower may re-designate any debt,

lien, restricted payment, payment or redemption of Junior Debt, investment or disposition (each a “Reclassifiable Item”) originally incurred or designated as incurred under any exception as having been incurred under another

exception so long as at the time of such re-designation, the Borrower would be permitted to incur or make such Reclassifiable Item under such other applicable exception (or would have been permitted to incur

or make such Reclassifiable Item under such other applicable exception, in which case, such reclassification shall be deemed to have automatically occurred if not elected by the Borrower). For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this paragraph

and the preceding paragraph shall also apply to any Incremental Term Facility.

Permitted Acquisitions:

Any acquisition (including any investment in any person which serves to increase the Borrower’s or a restricted subsidiary’s ownership in such person) shall be permitted so long as (the “Permitted Acquisition

Conditions”) no payment or bankruptcy (with respect to the Borrower) event of default has occurred and is continuing at the relevant time as determined pursuant to the “Limited Conditionality Transactions” section

above.

B-29

Permitted IPO Distributions:

After a qualifying IPO, restricted payments in an amount, on an annual basis, equal to the sum of (a) an amount equal to 8.00% of the net proceeds received by (or contributed to) the Borrower from such IPO (including any follow

on offering) and (b) an amount equal to 8.00% of the market capitalization of the Borrower or its direct or indirect parent (“Permitted IPO Distributions”).

Available Amount

Basket:

The negative covenants shall include an “Available Amount Basket” in a cumulative amount equal to (a) the greater of (x) 100% of Financing EBITDA and (y) 100% of Consolidated EBITDA calculated on a pro forma basis

for the most recently ended Test Period (the “Available Amount Starter Basket”) plus (b) the greatest of (at the time of determination) (x) 100% of cumulative retained excess cash flow (which amount shall not be less

than zero in any fiscal year), (y) 50% of cumulative Consolidated Net Income from the first day of the fiscal quarter in which the Closing Date occurs (which amount shall not be less than zero in any fiscal quarter) or (z) the sum of 100% of

the cumulative Consolidated EBITDA minus 140% of the cumulative amount of fixed charges since the Closing Date (which amount shall not be less than zero) (this clause (b), the “Available Amount Grower Prong”)

and Retained Asset Sale Proceeds, plus (c) the Declined Amounts, plus (d) the cash proceeds contributed to the Borrower of new public or private equity issuances of Holdings or any parent thereof after the Closing Date,

plus (e) capital contributions to the Borrower in respect of Permitted Equity made in cash or cash equivalents and the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Borrower) of any other property contributed to the Borrower

after the Closing Date, plus (f) the net cash proceeds received by the Borrower or any restricted subsidiary from debt and disqualified stock issuances that have been issued after the Closing Date and which have been exchanged or

converted into Permitted Equity, together with the fair market value of the other assets contributed to the Borrower, plus (g) the proceeds of sales of investments made under the Available Amount Basket and certain other investments,

plus (h) other customary prongs in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles.

The Available Amount Basket may be used for making investments, incurring debt, incurring liens, paying dividends and distributions and the prepayment or redemption of Junior Debt.

Financial Covenant:

Term Facility: None.

Revolving Facility: A maximum springing First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (the “Financial Covenant”) of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries of 7.75:1.00.

Compliance with the Financial Covenant will be tested quarterly with respect to the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, beginning on the last day of the second full fiscal quarter following the Closing

Date; provided, that notwithstanding anything

B-30

herein to the contrary such Financial Covenant will be tested only on the last day of an applicable fiscal quarter if outstanding revolving loans (excluding (i) for the first four fiscal quarters in which the Financial Covenant

is subject to testing, drawings on the Closing Date, (ii) drawings to fund Flex OID, (iii) cash collateralized letter of credit obligations and (iv) undrawn letter of credit obligations) exceed 40% of the then outstanding commitments

in respect of the Revolving Facility on such date (the “Testing Threshold”); provided, further, that the Borrower may repay Revolving Loans at any time on or prior to the date on which financial statements are

delivered for the applicable fiscal quarter and the Testing Threshold shall be recalculated to give pro forma effect to such repayment as if made as of the last day of such fiscal quarter. No other Facility will have the benefit of, or any rights

with respect to, the Financial Covenant.

If any “market flex” is actually exercised (pursuant to the provisions set forth in the Fee Letter), the covenant level for the Financial Covenant shall be adjusted in the Facilities Documentation (or pursuant to an

amendment thereto) to implement the exercise of such “market flex” provisions in order to maintain the cushion described above (before giving effect to such Facilities Documentation adjustment or amendment, as applicable). For purposes

of determining compliance with the Financial Covenant, any cash equity contribution (other than disqualified equity) made to the Borrower during such fiscal quarter or after the last day of the fiscal quarter (and not otherwise applied) and on or

prior to the day that is fifteen (15) business days after the day on which the compliance certificate is required to be delivered for such fiscal quarter (the “Cure Period”) will, at the request of the Borrower, be included

in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA for the purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Covenant at the end of such fiscal quarter and applicable subsequent periods which include such fiscal quarter (any such equity contribution so

included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA, a “Specified Equity Contribution”); provided that (a) in each four consecutive fiscal quarter period, there shall be at least two fiscal quarters in respect of which

no Specified Equity Contribution is made, (b) no more than five Specified Equity Contributions may be made during the term of the Revolving Facility, (c) the amount of any Specified Equity Contribution shall be no greater than the amount

required to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the Financial Covenant, (d) subject to clause (e) below, Specified Equity Contributions shall be disregarded for purposes of any financial ratio determination under the Facilities

Documentation other than for purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Covenant and (e) there shall be no pro forma reduction in the amount of outstanding indebtedness with the proceeds of any Specified Equity Contribution for

purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Covenant solely for the fiscal quarter for which the Specified Equity Contribution is made.

Any resulting event of default or potential event of default shall be deemed retroactively not to have occurred, subject to the terms and

B-31

conditions set forth above; provided, that no lender or letter of credit issuer shall be required to fund Revolving Loans or issue new Letters of Credit or extend or increase existing Letters of Credit unless and until the

Specified Equity Contribution is made; provided, further, that if the Specified Equity Contribution is not made before the expiration of the Cure Period, such event of default or potential event of default shall be deemed reinstated.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall exercise the right to accelerate any Loans or terminate the commitments and none of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other secured party shall exercise any right to foreclose on or

take possession of the Collateral or exercise any other remedy prior to the expiration of the Cure Period solely on the basis of an event of default having occurred and being continuing with respect to the Financial Covenant.

Unrestricted Subsidiaries:

The Facilities Documentation will contain provisions pursuant to which, subject to customary limitations on loans, advances and other investments in unrestricted subsidiaries, the Borrower will be permitted to designate any existing

or subsequently acquired or organized subsidiary of the Borrower as an “unrestricted subsidiary” (with any subsidiary of an unrestricted subsidiary constituting an unrestricted subsidiary) and subsequently

re-designate any such unrestricted subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary, so long as (a) any such designation of a restricted subsidiary as an unrestricted subsidiary shall be deemed to constitute an

investment in such unrestricted subsidiary at such time and (b) any such redesignation of any unrestricted subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary shall be deemed to constitute the incurrence of debt and liens of such subsidiary (and reduction in

an outstanding investment) at such time. Unrestricted subsidiaries will not be subject to the representations and warranties, mandatory prepayments, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default in the Facilities Documentation and the

results of operations and debt and cash of unrestricted subsidiaries will not be taken into account for purposes of the Facilities Documentation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be permitted to designate any subsidiary that holds Material Intellectual Property as an unrestricted subsidiary and neither the Borrower nor any restricted subsidiary shall be

permitted to contribute, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Material Intellectual Property to an unrestricted subsidiary; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any

(x) non-exclusive lease or non-exclusive license of an intellectual property to any unrestricted subsidiary, (y) any exclusive lease or exclusive license of

any intellectual property to an unrestricted subsidiary that constitutes an exclusive lease or exclusive license solely with respect or the use of such intellectual property in a particular geography in which the Borrower and its restricted

subsidiaries do not then engage in substantial operations, or a particular business or product line with respect to which the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries are not then engaged, or is not material to the business of the Borrower and its

restricted subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (z) development by such unrestricted subsidiaries of intellectual property.

B-32

“Material Intellectual Property” means any intellectual property owned by the Borrower or any restricted subsidiary that is, in the good faith determination of the Borrower, material to the operation of the

business of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Events of Default:

Limited to the following (applicable to the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries and in certain cases consistent with the Documentation Principles, Holdings) (with each threshold growing based on the Consolidated EBITDA of the

Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries): nonpayment of principal, interest or fees (with a five business day grace period for interest, fees and other amounts) (in each case provided that a failure to pay caused by administrative or technical

error shall not constitute an event of default if payment is made within five business days of the discovery of such error); failure to perform negative covenants; failure to perform affirmative covenants to (x) provide notice of defaults

(subject to cure once provided and an event of default resulting from failure to provide notice of a default shall be cured upon curing the underlying event of default) and (y) maintain the Borrower’s corporate existence; failure to

perform other covenants subject to a 30-day cure period after notice by the Administrative Agent; incorrectness in any material respect of (i) any Specified Representation on the Closing Date and

(ii) any other representation when made or deemed made after the Closing Date (subject, if such incorrectness is able to be cured, to a 30-day grace period following notice from the Administrative Agent);

cross-event-of-default and cross-acceleration to other debt of a Loan Party or any restricted subsidiary in an amount in excess of an amount to be agreed (after all

applicable grace and notice periods) (provided that any breach of a financial maintenance covenant in other debt of a Loan Party or any restricted subsidiary shall not trigger an event of default unless and until the applicable lenders of

such other debt have caused all amounts thereunder to become due and terminated any further commitments to lend under agreements governing such other debt) (provided, further, that Borrower’s failure to perform or observe the

Financial Covenant itself shall not constitute an Event of Default for purposes of any Term Loan (including any term loans incurred under any Incremental Term Facilities) unless and until the Revolving Lenders holding at least a majority of the

Revolving Loans and revolving commitments have actually declared all such obligations to be immediately due and payable and terminated the commitments under the Revolving Facility in accordance with the Facilities Documentation and such declaration

has not been rescinded), bankruptcy or other similar events of Holdings or its significant restricted subsidiaries that are Loan Parties (with a 60-day grace period for involuntary events); final monetary

judgment defaults against the Borrower or its significant restricted subsidiaries that are Loan Parties in an amount in excess of the cross event-of-default threshold

(after netting insurance and third party indemnities) (subject to a 60-day grace period); ERISA defaults subject to Material Adverse Effect; invalidity of any material Facilities Documentation; and change of

control (to include a pre- and post-qualifying IPO provision).

B-33

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no exercise of remedies under any Facility may occur with respect to any action taken and reported to the Administrative Agent or Lenders, more than two years prior to such exercise of remedies (unless

the Administrative Agent has commenced remedial action with respect thereto prior to the end of such two year period) (the “Two Year Default Limitation”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any event of default or similarly defined term in the Facilities Documentation (including any event of default resulting from the failure to provide notice thereof) shall automatically be deemed not to

be “continuing” or “existing” if the events, acts or conditions that gave rise to such event of default (x) have been remedied or cured (including by payment, notice, taking of any action or omitting to take any action)

or (y) have ceased to exist.

Voting:

Amendments and waivers of the Facilities Documentation will require the approval of Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the loans and commitments under the Facilities (the “Required Lenders”)

(provided that the aggregate amount of the loans and commitments under the Facilities of any Lender that fails to respond to a request for an amendment prior to the applicable deadline shall be excluded from the denominator of such calculation (the

“Snooze-Lose Provision”)), except that (i) the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (but not the consent of the Required Lenders or of any other majority or required percentage of the Lenders of any

facility or tranche, or any other Lenders) shall be required with respect to (a) any increase in the commitment of such Lender (provided that a waiver of any condition precedent, any default, event of default or mandatory prepayment

shall not constitute such an increase), (b) any reduction of principal, interest or fees due to such Lender (provided that a waiver of default interest, the MFN Provision, any condition precedent, any default, event of default or mandatory

prepayment, or change to a financial ratio (or any component definition thereof), shall not constitute such a reduction) and (c) any extension of the final maturity or the scheduled due date of any principal, interest or fee payment due to such

Lender (other than a waiver of any condition precedent, any default, event of default or mandatory prepayment) and other than extensions for administrative convenience as agreed by the Administrative Agent and (d) any amendments or

modifications to the pro rata sharing or “waterfall” provisions (subject to the succeeding paragraph)) (which shall not prohibit certain transactions and actions to be agreed, including open market purchases and other privately

negotiated transactions, loan buy backs and amend and extend transactions), (ii) the consent of each Lender shall be required with respect to (x) except as otherwise permitted by the Facilities Documentation, a release of all or substantially

all of the guarantees made by the Guarantors or a release of all or substantially all of the Collateral and (y) any reduction of any voting percentage set forth in the

B-34

definition of “Required Lenders”, (iii) the consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required with respect to amendments directly and adversely affecting its rights and duties, (iv) any amendment or waiver that

by its terms affects the rights or duties of Lenders holding loans or commitments of a particular class (but not the Lenders holding loans or commitments of any other class) will require only the requisite percentage in interest of the affected

class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto if such class of Lenders were the only class of Lenders and (v) any amendment to implement an Incremental Facility, “amend and extend” transaction or permitted refinancing

shall require the consent of the participating Lenders (but not the consent of the Required Lenders or any of any other majority or required percentage of the Lenders of any facility or tranche, or any other Lenders). It is agreed that (i) any

applicable intercreditor agreement may be entered into or amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent to give effect thereto or to carry out the purposes thereof and (ii) there shall be no “class” voting requirement

for amendments, modifications or supplements to the Facilities Documentation.

The Facilities Documentation shall provide that any amendment to the “waterfall” provisions to subordinate any loans or the contractual subordination of payment or lien priority of the Initial Term Facility or the

Revolving Facility, as applicable, on the one hand, to any other indebtedness for borrowed money (such other indebtedness, the “Priming Indebtedness”), on the other hand, in connection with the exchange of the Initial Term

Facility or the Revolving Facility, as applicable, for such Priming Indebtedness or the repayment of Initial Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable, with the proceeds of such Priming Indebtedness (a “Priming Transaction”),

as applicable, shall require the consent of all directly and adversely affected Lenders under the Initial Term Facility or the Revolving Facility, as applicable, in each case, subject to exceptions for (x) transactions expressly permitted in

the Facilities Documentation and (y) any Priming Transaction in which the Borrower offered the applicable Lenders that were directly and adversely affected by such subordination at the time of the applicable Priming Transaction an opportunity

to ratably participate in the applicable Priming Transaction on the same terms as the other lenders participating in such Priming Transaction (other than with respect to backstop fees, any arrangement or restructuring fees and reimbursement of

counsel fees and other expenses in connection with the negotiation of the terms of such transaction).

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the consent of the Administrative Agent (but not the Required Lenders or any other Lender) will be required to effectuate any amendment to the Facilities Documentation that adds one or more

provisions to the Facilities Documentation that are, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, more favorable to the Lenders.

B-35

The Facilities Documentation shall contain customary provisions (x) relating to “defaulting” agents (including for insolvency) and, if applicable, the replacement of the Administrative Agent and (y) allowing

the Borrower to replace (and/or, on a non-pro rata basis, terminate commitments and/or make prepayments of the loans of) a Lender in connection with (i) amendments and waivers requiring the consent of all

Lenders or all Lenders directly affected thereby (so long as the Required Lenders or at least a majority (in dollar amount) of the Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby, as applicable, have consented to such amendment or waiver and such

Lender has not consented to such amendment or waiver) and (ii) requests for compensation for increased costs, taxes and similar items.

Any Lender (other than any regulated bank) that, as a result of any total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative contract (other than any such total return swap, total rate of return swap,

credit default swap or other derivative contract entered into pursuant to bona fide market making activities), has a net short position with respect to the Facilities or the Initial Term Facility and commitments under any of the Facilities shall

have no right to vote any of its interest under the Facilities. In connection with any such amendment or waiver, each Lender will either be required to notify the Administrative Agent that it has such a net short position with respect to the loans

and commitments under the applicable Facilities or otherwise be deemed to have represented to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it does not have such a net short position. Each Lender will agree, upon the request of the Borrower, to

disclose the amount of any short position with respect to the Facilities held by such Lender or its affiliates.

In addition, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error, mistake or ambiguity or any error or omission of a technical or administrative nature in the Facilities Documentation, then

the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision without further action or consent of any other party.

Assignments and

Participations:

After the Closing Date, the Lenders will be permitted to assign (other than to any natural person, any investment vehicle established primarily for the benefit of a natural person or Disqualified Institution) (a) loans and/or

commitments under the Initial Term Facility or any Incremental Term Facility with the consent of the Borrower (any such consent shall be deemed to be given after ten business days’ notice if the Borrower fails to respond) and the

Administrative Agent (in each case not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (b) loans and commitments under the Revolving Facility with the consent of the Borrower (which may be withheld in its sole discretion), the Swingline Lender and

the Issuing Bank (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that (A) the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, withhold its consent to any assignment to (x) any person that is not a Disqualified Institution but is known

by the Borrower to be an affiliate of a Disqualified Institution regardless of whether such person is identifiable as an

B-36

affiliate of a Disqualified Institution on the basis of such affiliate’s name or (y) any person (including any person that manages or advises funds) that invests (directly or indirectly through affiliates) in distressed

debt, “special situations” or “opportunities”, (B) no consent of the Borrower shall be required after the occurrence and during the continuance of a payment or bankruptcy (with respect to the Borrower) event of default,

(C) no consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower shall be required if such assignment is to (x) in the case of an assignment by a Term Lender, another Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or approved fund or (y) in the case of

an assignment by a Revolving Lender, another Revolving Lender or an affiliate or approved fund of another Revolving Lender in the business of providing revolving facilities and (D) no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for

any assignment to the Borrower or any of its affiliates if such assignment is made in accordance with the terms set forth below; provided, further, that Goldman Sachs may assign its loans and commitments to Goldman Sachs Lending

Partners LLC without the consent of any party. Each assignment (other than to another applicable Lender, an affiliate of an applicable Lender or an approved fund) will be in an amount of $1.0 million (or an integral multiple of

$1.0 million in excess thereof) (or lesser amounts, if agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) or, if less, all of such Lender’s remaining loans and commitments of the applicable class. The Administrative Agent shall

receive a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 for each assignment (it being understood that (x) such fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and (y) such fee shall not apply to any assignment by

or to the Borrower or any of its affiliates if such assignment is made in accordance with the terms set forth below). Any assigning Lender shall, in connection with any potential assignment, provide to the Borrower a copy of its request (including

the name of the prospective assignee) concurrently with its delivery of the same request to the Administrative Agent irrespective of whether or not a payment or bankruptcy default or event of default has occurred and is continuing.

Each Lender may sell participations (other than to any natural person, any investment vehicle established primarily for the benefit of a natural person or Disqualified Institution) in all or a portion of its loans and commitments

under the Initial Term Facility or the Revolving Facility; provided that (i) voting rights of participants shall be limited to matters set forth under “Voting” above with respect to which the unanimous vote of all Lenders (or

all directly and adversely affected Lenders, if the participant is directly and adversely affected) would be required (and shall not include the right to vote on waivers of defaults or events of default) and (ii) the consent of the Borrower

(not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for participations of the Revolving Facility. No participant will be entitled to a gross-up or yield protection payment in an amount greater than

the amount, if any, owed to the selling Lender, unless such entitlement to a greater amount results from a change in law after the participant acquired the participation.

B-37

Each assignee shall be required to represent that it is not a Disqualified Institution or an affiliate of a Disqualified Institution to the extent that such assignee has received, upon its request, a list of Disqualified

Institutions. The Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the foregoing provisions relating to Disqualified

Institutions.

In addition, non-pro rata distributions will be permitted in connection with loan buy-back or similar programs, assignments to, and open market

purchases or other privately negotiated purchases by, the Borrower and its affiliates on the terms set forth below.

An assignment of Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans to any affiliate of the Borrower (other than Holdings and its restricted subsidiaries and natural persons) (each, an “Affiliated Lender”) shall be permitted

subject to the following limitations; provided that an Affiliated Lender that is a bona fide debt fund or an investment vehicle engaged in, or that advises funds or other investment vehicles that are engaged in, making, purchasing, holding or

otherwise dealing in commercial loans, bonds and similar extensions of credit or securities in the ordinary course (each, a “Debt Fund Affiliate”), will be subject solely to the Debt Fund Affiliate Limitation (as defined below)

and shall be deemed not to be an Affiliated Lender for purposes of any other limitation below:

1. Affiliated Lenders will not receive any “lender only” information and

will not be permitted to attend/participate in “lender only” meetings;

2. for purposes of any amendment, waiver or modification of the Facilities

Documentation (other than any such amendment, waiver or modification that requires the consent of each Lender, each affected Lender, affects such Affiliated Lender as compared to other Lenders in a disproportionately adverse manner or that deprives

such Affiliated Lender of its pro rata share of any payments to which it is entitled, as to which items each Affiliated Lender shall have the right to vote), Affiliated Lenders will be deemed to have voted in the same proportion as non-affiliated Lenders voting on such matter;

3. the amount of Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders

(other than Debt Fund Affiliates) may not exceed 25% of the outstanding principal amount of such loans under such facility (determined as of the time of any purchase and after giving effect to any substantially simultaneous cancellation thereof);

and

4. for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have consented to any

amendment or waiver under the Facilities Documentation, the aggregate amount of Loans held by Debt

B-38

Fund Affiliates will be excluded to the extent in excess of 49.9% of the amount required to constitute the “Required Lenders”; it being understood and agreed that any Loans above such threshold shall be deemed to be

voted pro rata to the relevant class of Lenders that are not Debt Fund Affiliates (the “Debt Fund Affiliate Limitation”).

The Facilities Documentation shall permit (but not require) any Affiliated Lender to contribute any purchased Term Loans to the Borrower or any of its direct or indirect parents or subsidiaries for cancellation and to receive in

exchange therefor debt or equity securities of such entity or direct or indirect parent or subsidiary thereof that are otherwise permitted to be issued by such entity at such time, any such contribution to the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries

shall be treated as an equity contribution that builds the Available Amount Basket by an amount equal to the fair market value of the Term Loans so contributed; provided that if the fair market value of such Term Loans cannot be ascertained

by the Borrower, the fair market value shall be deemed to be the purchase price of such Term Loans paid by such Affiliated Lender.

Assignments of Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans to Holdings or any of its subsidiaries shall be permitted, pursuant to open market purchases or other privately negotiated transactions, “Dutch auctions” so long as

(i) in the case of “Dutch auctions”, any offer to purchase or take by assignment shall have been made to all Lenders within the applicable facility pro rata (with buyback mechanics to be consistent with the Documentation Principles)

and (ii) in the case of any assignment to the Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries, such Loans are immediately and automatically cancelled to the extent permitted by applicable law.

In connection with any assignment or purchase otherwise permitted, neither the Borrower nor the Sponsors or any of their affiliates shall be required to make any representation that it is not in possession of material nonpublic

information with respect to Holdings, the Borrower, its subsidiaries or their respective securities.

Yield Protection:

The Facilities Documentation shall contain customary yield protection provisions protecting the Lenders against increased costs or loss of yield resulting from changes in reserve, capital adequacy and other requirements of law and

from the imposition of or changes in certain withholding or other taxes in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles.

Expenses and

Indemnification:

If the Closing Date occurs, the Borrower shall pay, without duplication, (a) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of each Lead

Arranger (within 30 days of a written demand therefor, together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request), associated with the syndication of the Facilities and the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and

administration of the Facilities

B-39

Documentation and any amendment or waiver with respect thereto (provided that the legal fees will be limited to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel and, if necessary, of one local counsel in

each relevant material jurisdiction, in each case to such persons taken as a whole (provided that such obligation to reimburse legal fees incurred on or prior to the Closing Date shall be limited as set forth in the Commitment Letter)) and

(b) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders within 30 days of a written demand therefor, together with

backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request, in connection with the enforcement of the Facilities Documentation (provided that the legal fees will be limited to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one

counsel and, if necessary, of one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction, in each case to such persons taken as a whole).

The Borrower will, without duplication, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Lead Arranger, each Lender and their respective affiliates and their directors, officers, employees, controlling persons, members,

agents, advisors and other representatives, successors and permitted assigns within 30 days of a written demand therefor, together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request, from and against all losses, claims, damages,

liabilities and expenses arising out of or relating to the Initial Term Facility, any other aspect of the Transactions, the Borrower’s use of loan proceeds or the commitments (provided that legal fees, disbursements and other charges

will be limited to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of (i) one counsel to the indemnified parties taken as a whole, (ii) if necessary, one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction and (iii) in the case

of any actual or perceived conflict of interest, additional counsel to each group of similarly situated indemnified parties taken as a whole, limited to one such additional counsel and one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction). The

indemnification provisions will not apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses that (x) arise from a dispute that does not involve any action or omission of the Borrower or any of its affiliates and is solely among the

indemnified parties (other than any claims against an indemnified person in its capacity as the Administrative Agent or a Lead Arranger) or (y) are found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of

competent jurisdiction to have resulted from an indemnified person’s bad faith, gross negligence, willful misconduct or material breach of the obligations of any such indemnified person under the Facilities Documentation. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, each indemnified person shall be obligated to refund and return any and all amounts paid by the Borrower to such indemnified person for fees, expenses or damages to the extent such indemnified person is not entitled to payment of such

amounts in accordance with the terms hereof, as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

ANNEX I TO EXHIBIT B

INTEREST AND CERTAIN FEES

Interest Rate Options:

The Borrower may elect that the loans comprising each borrowing bear interest at a rate equal to either: (a) the ABR plus the Applicable Margin or (b) the applicable Benchmark Rate plus the Applicable

Margin.

As used herein:

“ABR” means the highest of (i) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal in the U.S. as the prime rate in effect (the “Prime Rate”), (ii) the NYFRB Rate from time to time

plus 0.5% and (iii) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for a one month interest period plus 1%. If the ABR as determined pursuant to the foregoing would be less than 1.00%, such rate shall be deemed to be 1.00%.

“ABR Loans” means Loans bearing interest based upon the ABR.

“Applicable Margin” means (A)(i) with respect to the Initial Dollar Term Facility (a) 1.75%, in the case of ABR Loans and (b) 2.75%, in the case of SOFR Loans (as defined below) and (ii) with respect to the

be drawn under the Revolving Facility; provided, further, that it is agreed and understood that no purchase price, working capital or similar adjustment provisions set forth in either Acquisition Agreement shall constitute a reduction

or increase in purchase price (or otherwise constitute a waiver, amendment or modification to the applicable Acquisition Agreement) for purposes of this paragraph 1.

1. Engagement of Services/Project Statement of Work. Company hereby engages Consultant effective on the Effective Date on a non-exclusive basis as provided in Section 5.6, and Consultant agrees to use Consultant’s independent skill and expertise to provide certain services (“Services”) as more specifically

described in Attachment 1. Consultant will provide the Services in a professional and workmanlike manner.

2. Fees. In consideration for the

services rendered by Consultant prior to the Effective Date as described in clause (a) below and the Services to be rendered by Consultant pursuant to this Agreement, Company shall pay Consultant:

(a)

an up-front fee in an amount equal to $250,000 per month in respect of

the period from November 1, 2025 through the Effective Date (prorated for any partial calendar month in the end of such period) (the “Up Front Fee”), payable within twenty (20) days after the Effective Date, in respect

of Consultant’s substantial services rendered during such period in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement and the POA (including the form of the SPA attached thereto), including (i) Consultant’s

assistance with, and oversight of, the due diligence review by AIP of Company and its businesses to be contributed to MetalCo and the due diligence review by Company and AIP of Trivium, (ii) Consultant’s assistance with the negotiation of

the Transaction Agreement, the Interim Investors Agreement, the POA, the SPA, the LLC Agreement, the equity commitment letter, the limited guarantees, the debt commitment letter and related financing documents and the other agreements and documents

entered into, or to be entered into, in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby and (iii) Consultant’s leadership of, and assistance with, other significant pre-signing workstreams,

including transaction structuring, separation planning for the businesses to be contributed by Company to MetalCo, financing matters and engagement with financial and other advisors;

(b)

if the Closing and the closing under the Transaction Agreement occur, in consideration of the extraordinary

efforts required of Consultant in connection with the execution of the Transaction Agreement, the Interim Investors Agreement, the POA, the SPA, the LLC Agreement and the other agreements and documents entered into on or about the Effective Date or

to be entered into following the Effective Date, and the consummation of the Closing and the closing under the Transaction Agreement, an additional fee in an amount equal to $150,000 per month in respect of the period from the Effective Date through

the Closing (prorated for any partial calendar month in the event that the Effective Date occurs on any day following the first day of any month or the

Closing occurs on any day preceding the first day of any month) (the “Additional Fee”), payable within a period following the Closing equal in duration to the period from the

Effective Date through the Closing, but in no event later than March 14 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Closing occurs; and

(c)

during the Term of this Agreement a consulting fee in the amount of $250,000.00 per month (prorated for any

partial calendar month in the event that the Effective Date occurs on any day following the first day of any month or the last day of the Term occurs on any day preceding the last day of any month) (the “Consulting Fees” and,

together with the Up Front Fee and the Additional Fee, the “Fees”), payable within twenty (20) days following the end of the month in which the Services were performed.

For purposes of clarity, if the Transaction Agreement or the SPA is terminated (including any termination of the POA with the Put Option (as defined therein)

unexercised), the Up Front Fee and the Consulting Fees in respect of months prior to such termination are non-refundable. Other than the Fees and the reimbursement of certain expenses as set forth in

Section 5.5 hereof, Company will not be responsible for the payment of any other amounts, expenses, costs, or reimbursements of any kind to Consultant for Consultant’s Services hereunder unless separately agreed to in writing by the

Parties on a case-by-case basis. All amounts paid by Company to Consultant hereunder will be deemed to already include any applicable taxes, duties, levies, or

surcharges of any kind, the reporting and payment of which will be the sole responsibility of Consultant. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall limit or affect the fees or expenses otherwise payable by Company to Consultant in his

capacity as a director of Company and the Company Chairperson. The Parties acknowledge that they will have further discussions in good faith, in consultation with the other party to the Interim Investors Agreement, and as agreed would amend this

Agreement to change the amount of the Consulting Fees and provide for a bonus payable to Consultant in accordance with a bonus plan to be approved by Company. It is also understood that MetalCo may grant Consultant equity incentive compensation in

the form of profits interests in MetalCo (or equivalent securities), subject in each case to approval by Company and MetalCo and to the terms of a definitive award agreement(s) between MetalCo and Consultant and any applicable equity incentive plan

documents of MetalCo, all subject to the prior approval of Company and MetalCo. Other than as provided in this Section 2, reimbursement of expenses as set forth in Section 5.5 and indemnification and advancement of expenses as set forth in

Section 14, as the case may be, no amounts shall be payable to Consultant by MetalCo or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries in respect of Consultant’s service as MetalCo Chairperson or interim CEO of MetalCo.

3. Ownership. Consultant agrees that all files, client lists, letters, memoranda, reports, records, data program listing, or other written,

photographic, or other tangible material, including but not limited to materials containing Confidential Information (as defined below) or trade secrets of Company and MetalCo, whether created by Consultant or others, which shall come into

Consultant’s custody or possession, shall be or are the exclusive property of Company or MetalCo, as applicable, to be used by Consultant only in the performance of Consultant’s duties for Company and MetalCo. Unless otherwise agreed by

Company in writing, all such records or copies thereof and all tangible property of Company and MetalCo in Consultant’s custody or possession shall be destroyed (and Consultant shall certify destruction in writing to Company and/or MetalCo, as

applicable) or returned to Company and/or MetalCo, as applicable, upon the earlier of: (a) request by Company (with respect to Company materials and property) or MetalCo (with respect to MetalCo materials and property); or (b) termination

of this

Agreement and his role as a director of MetalCo (with respect to MetalCo materials and property). After such delivery, Consultant shall not retain any such records or copies thereof or any such

tangible property.

4. Representations and Warranties. Consultant represents and warrants that: (a) Consultant has the full right and

authority to enter into this Agreement and perform Consultant’s obligations hereunder; and (b) Consultant’s performance of the Services under this Agreement will not violate any agreement, contract or commitment to which Consultant

is a party or is otherwise bound, and, to Consultant’s knowledge, will not violate the rights of any third party. Company represents and warrants that it is not aware of any obligation of Consultant to Company that would impair

Consultant’s right and authority to enter into this Agreement and perform the Services.

5. Independent Contractor Relationship.

5.1 Status. Consultant is the Company Chairperson in a non-executive capacity. Consultant

is being engaged hereunder as an independent contractor and not an employee of Company and shall become a Silgan Designated Director, the MetalCo Chairperson and interim CEO of MetalCo and shall not be an employee of Company or MetalCo. The Parties

acknowledge that Consultant may simultaneously serve as the Company Chairperson, the MetalCo Chairperson and interim CEO of MetalCo. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or should be construed to, create a partnership, agency, joint venture or

employment relationship. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a guarantee of Consultant’s continued service as a director of Company, the Company Chairperson, Silgan Designated Director, the MetalCo Chairperson or interim CEO of

MetalCo.

5.2 MetalCo Board Voting. Prior to each meeting of the MetalCo Board and prior to executing any written consent of

the members of the MetalCo Board, Consultant shall confer with the Chief Executive Officer and the General Counsel of Company and the other members of the MetalCo Board designated by Company or its applicable subsidiary (such members of the MetalCo

Board, together with Consultant, the “Silgan Designated Directors”) regarding the matters to be formally voted on at a meeting by resolution or consented on, and shall disclose Consultant’s intended vote on each such matter

to Company and the other Silgan Designated Directors, and any subsequent change therein, prior to casting such vote. If any matter to be formally voted on by the MetalCo Board by resolution is first presented to the MetalCo Board at a meeting

without time reasonably sufficient for such conferral, Consultant shall instead notify other Silgan Designated Directors of Consultant’s intended vote as promptly as practicable and in any event prior to the vote. Consultant shall not cast any

vote on a matter to be formally voted on by the MetalCo Board by resolution, or execute any written consent, before the other Silgan Designated Directors have communicated their intended votes, except to the extent Consultant determines acting

reasonably and in good faith that Consultant’s fiduciary duties as the MetalCo Chairperson require otherwise. On each matter presented to the MetalCo Board, Consultant shall vote with the majority of the other Silgan Designated Directors

(including Consultant), except to the extent Consultant determines acting reasonably and in good faith that Consultant’s fiduciary duties as the MetalCo Chairperson require otherwise. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that he is a designee of

Company or its applicable subsidiary on the MetalCo Board and Consultant shall follow all directives of the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to MetalCo, except to the extent Consultant determines acting reasonably and in good

faith that Consultant’s fiduciary duties as the MetalCo Chairperson require otherwise. Before making a determination that Consultant’s fiduciary duties require a vote inconsistent with the directives of the Company Board or the votes of

a majority of the Silgan

Designated Directors, Consultant shall consult with the General Counsel of Company and, at Company’s cost and expense, outside counsel to Company and, if Consultant so determines, at

Company’s cost and expense, other legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Company. If Consultant is designated to serve on any committee of the MetalCo Board or any board, committee or similar governing body of any direct or indirect subsidiary

of MetalCo, the provisions of this Section 5.2 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any vote, consent or other action by Consultant in Consultant’s capacity as a member of any such committee, board or governing body; provided that

this Section 5.2 shall not apply to any such vote, consent or action to the extent it implements, or is taken to effectuate, a matter previously approved by the MetalCo Board in accordance with this Section 5.2. Notwithstanding anything to

the contrary, for any written consent or formal vote at a meeting, if Consultant votes with the majority of the other Silgan Designated Directors, Company shall not have any grounds to terminate Consultant with respect to such written consent or

formal vote or the matters covered thereby. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5.2 shall restrict Consultant from expressing Consultant’s own views and opinions regarding the matters to be formally voted on by the MetalCo

Board openly with the full MetalCo Board, including the members of the MetalCo Board that are not Silgan Designated Directors; provided, that Consultant ultimately votes with the majority of the other Silgan Designated Directors or otherwise in

compliance with this Section 5.2.

5.3 Tax Treatment. Company will treat Consultant as an

independent contractor for purposes of all tax laws (national, provincial, local, state and federal, as applicable) and file forms consistent with that status. Consultant, as an independent contractor, is not entitled to unemployment benefits in the

event this Agreement terminates, or to workers’ compensation benefits in the event that Consultant is injured in any manner while performing obligations under this Agreement (or such comparable benefits in the applicable jurisdictions).

Consultant will be solely responsible to pay any and all applicable local, state, and/or federal income, social security and unemployment taxes (or such comparable taxes in the applicable jurisdictions) for Consultant. Company will not withhold any

taxes or prepare W-2 Forms (or such comparable document in the applicable jurisdictions) for Consultant but will provide Consultant with a Form 1099 (or such comparable document in other applicable

jurisdictions), if required by law. Consultant is solely responsible for and will timely file all tax returns and payments required to be filed with, or made to, any federal, state or local tax authority with respect to the performance of Services

and receipt of Fees under this Agreement. Consultant is solely responsible for, and must maintain adequate records of, expenses incurred in the course of performing Services under this Agreement, except as provided herein. No part of

Consultant’s compensation will be subject to withholding by Company for the payment of any social security, federal, state or any other applicable employee payroll taxes. Company will regularly report amounts paid to Consultant with the

appropriate taxing authorities as required by applicable law and Consultant will be responsible for reporting, filing, and making full payment of any taxes arising under this Agreement to the complete exoneration of Company.

5.4 No Employee Benefits. Consultant will not receive any employee benefits of any kind from Company or MetalCo in connection

with this Agreement, other than as expressly permitted in Section 2 of this Agreement. Consultant is excluded from participating in any fringe benefit plans or programs as a result of the performance of Services under this Agreement, without

regard to Consultant’s independent contractor status. In addition, during the Term (as defined below) of this Agreement Consultant waives any and all rights, if any, to participation in any of Company’s or MetalCo’s fringe benefit

plans or programs including, but not limited to, vacations, sick leave,

bonuses, severance, gratuities, health, sickness, accident or dental coverage, life insurance, disability benefits, accidental death and dismemberment coverage, unemployment insurance coverage,

workers’ compensation coverage, or other social insurance contributions, and pension or 401(k) (or comparable plan in other applicable jurisdictions) benefit(s) provided by Company or MetalCo to its employees; provided, however, that nothing

in this Agreement alters Consultant’s rights to any vested benefits pursuant to Consultant’s prior employment by the Company. Company and Consultant acknowledge that the Fees payable hereunder were determined with the understanding that

Consultant will be responsible for paying any and all costs associated with obtaining health coverage and other benefits.

5.5

Expenses. Consultant shall be reimbursed by Company for his reasonable and documented out-of-pocket travel and accommodation expenses for travel prior to the

Closing to Company, Trivium or MetalCo business locations, or any other locations reasonably necessary, in order to provide the Services hereunder, at a class and level of travel and accommodation consistent with those used by senior executives of

Company. It is understood that MetalCo will reimburse Consultant for actual, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Consultant following

the Closing in connection with Consultant’s service as MetalCo Chairperson and interim CEO of MetalCo, subject to the terms of the LLC Agreement and any other applicable documents. Consultant shall not be entitled to reimbursement under this

Agreement of any other expenses incurred in connection with the performance of Services hereunder.

6. Confidential Information and Publicity.

6.1 General. Consultant will hold Company’s and MetalCo’s Confidential Information (as defined below) in strict

confidence and not disclose such Confidential Information to any third parties, it being understood that (i) all members of the MetalCo Board shall not be deemed to be third parties for purposes of sharing MetalCo’s Confidential

Information and (ii) Consultant may disclose Company’s Confidential Information to advisors of Company or to Consultant’s own legal and tax advisors or MetalCo’s Confidential Information to advisors of Company or MetalCo or to

Consultant’s own legal and tax advisors, in each case in this clause (ii), as is necessary or advisable. Consultant will not use any Confidential Information for any purpose other than performance of Consultant’s Services hereunder and

performance of his role as the Company Chairperson. “Confidential Information” as used in this Agreement will mean all information disclosed by Company or MetalCo to Consultant, or otherwise, regarding Company’s or

MetalCo’s business obtained by Consultant pursuant to Services provided under this Agreement that is not generally known in the trade or industry and will include, without limitation, information regarding the Company’s and

MetalCo’s customers and prospective customers (including but not limited to their needs, preferences, requirements, and likes and dislikes), costs, pricing, profitability, sales and marketing strategies, pricing policies, commission

structures, contract terms and conditions, operational methods, formulations, practices, manufacturing or mixing methods, strategic plans, nonpublic personnel-related information, nonpublic personal and private information of employees, nonpublic

training materials, internal financial information, research and development plans and activities, and the like. Confidential Information also includes proprietary or confidential information of any third party who may disclose such information to

Company, MetalCo, or Consultant in the course of Company’s or MetalCo’s business. Consultant acknowledges that Company and/or its applicable subsidiary may be subject to separate confidentiality obligations owed to MetalCo (including

pursuant to the Interim Investors

Agreement, the LLC Agreement or the related Restrictive Covenant Agreement referenced therein) and that Consultant may receive Confidential Information of MetalCo that is subject to such

obligations. Consultant agrees to comply with any such obligation of which Consultant is aware, to the extent it applies to Consultant, and in the event of any conflict between such obligation of Consultant and the other provisions of this

Section 6, the provision that is more protective of the Confidential Information of MetalCo shall apply.

6.2

Exceptions. Consultant’s obligations set forth in this Section will not apply with respect to any portion of the Confidential Information that Consultant can demonstrate is in the public domain through no fault of Consultant. In

addition, Consultant may disclose Confidential Information in response to a valid order by a court or other governmental body, or as otherwise required by law.

6.3 Exclusive Property. All Confidential Information furnished to Consultant by Company or MetalCo is the sole and exclusive

property of Company or MetalCo respectively and/or its or their suppliers or customers. Upon request, Consultant will promptly deliver to Company or MetalCo (as applicable) the original and any copies of such Confidential Information.

6.4 No Public Use. Consultant will not issue any advertising, public announcements or releases, nor make any other public

references to Company, MetalCo, and/or this Agreement without the prior written consent of Company; provided, that the foregoing shall not apply to statements made in the ordinary course of Consultant’s roles as a director of Company, Company

Chairperson, director of MetalCo, MetalCo Chairperson or interim CEO of MetalCo or disclosures required by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rules.

6.5 Defend Trade Secrets Act. Consultant is hereby provided notice that under the 2016 Defend Trade Secrets Act

(“DTSA”): (a) no individual will be held criminally or civilly liable under federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret (as defined under the DTSA) that: (i) is made in confidence to a federal,

state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to any attorney; and made solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a

lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal so that it is not made public; and (b) an individual who pursues a lawsuit for retaliation by Company for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the

attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except as permitted by court order.

6.6 Permitted Conduct. Nothing in this Agreement restricts the right of Consultant to report any good faith allegation of

unlawful practices to or cooperate with any appropriate federal, state, or local government agency or government official; make other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable law or regulation and collect any

statutory award in connection therewith; make truthful statements or disclosures required by law, regulation, or legal process; or request or receive confidential legal advice.

7. Term and Termination.

7.1 Term. The term (“Term”) of this Agreement shall

commence on the Effective Date and shall continue thereafter until the Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.

7.2

Termination. At any time, either Party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other Party; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, from the Effective Date through the

end of the 36-month period following the Closing Date, the Company may only terminate this Agreement in compliance with Sections 4.1(f), 4.3(b)(vi) and 4.3(g) of the LLC Agreement (and prior to the Closing,

Section 2.4 of the Interim Investors Agreement). Prior to the Closing, in the event of termination of the Transaction Agreement or the SPA (including any termination of the POA in accordance with its terms with the Put Option (as defined

therein) unexercised), in each case in accordance with its respective terms, this Agreement shall then automatically terminate without any further action by either Party. Following the Closing, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at such

time as Consultant ceases to occupy the position of the MetalCo Chairperson for any reason; provided, that any removal of Consultant from the position of the MetalCo Chairperson shall terminate this Agreement only if such removal is effected in

compliance with the LLC Agreement (including, to the extent required thereunder, with the prior written consent of the AIP Investors). This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon Consultant’s death, and Company may terminate this

Agreement immediately upon written notice in the event of Consultant’s permanent disability (as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Company) or for Cause (as defined in the LLC Agreement and subject to Section 7.5).

Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, Company may remove Consultant from Consultant’s position as a director of Company or Company Chairperson at any time but such removal will not terminate this Agreement unless such

removal is made in a manner which would otherwise validly terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 7.2.

7.3 Effect of Termination. Upon any termination of this Agreement, Consultant: (i) will immediately discontinue all use of

Confidential Information except in connection with his role as the Company Chairperson; (ii) will delete any Confidential Information from Consultant’s computer storage or any other media, including, but not limited to, online and off-line libraries, except where retained access to the Confidential Information is necessary in connection with his role as the Company Chairperson; (iii) upon Company’s request, will return to Company

or MetalCo (as applicable), or, at Consultant’s option, destroy and certify destruction in writing, all copies of such electing party’s Confidential Information then in Consultant’s possession (except those in his possession in his

capacity as the Company Chairperson); and (iv) upon Company’s request, will return to Company or MetalCo (as applicable) any other Company or MetalCo property in Consultant’s possession or control (except those in his possession or

control in his capacity as the Company Chairperson). In the event either Party terminates this Agreement or this Agreement otherwise terminates in accordance with Section 7.2, Consultant will not receive any additional Consulting Fees or other

payments after the effective date of termination (provided that Consultant will be paid prorated Consulting Fees for any partial month during the Term and, if the Closing and the closing under the Transaction Agreement have occurred prior to such

termination, any unpaid Additional Fee).

7.4 Survival. The rights and obligations contained in Sections 2 through 17 will

survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement; provided that Section 5.2 shall terminate upon any termination or expiration of this Agreement, except that (a) Section 5.2 shall survive with respect to any breach thereof

occurring prior to such termination or expiration and (b) Section 5.2 shall

survive any termination of this Agreement by Consultant pursuant to the first sentence of Section 7.2 unless, prior to or concurrently with such termination, Consultant has resigned as

MetalCo Chairperson and as a member of the MetalCo Board.

7.5 Notice and Cure; Reliance. Except with respect to any breach

of Section 5.2, no act or omission by Consultant will constitute a breach of this Agreement (including for purposes of determining Cause) unless Company has given Consultant written notice specifying the breach in reasonable detail and, if such

breach is curable, Consultant fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice. No act or omission taken at the direction of the Company Board or with the prior written approval by Company’s General Counsel

of such act or omission will constitute a breach of this Agreement.

8. Cooperation. For up to one (1) year following the expiration of

the Term, Consultant agrees to be available at mutually agreeable times to respond to limited transition questions with respect to his role at MetalCo that may arise from time to time.

9. Assignment. Consultant may not subcontract or otherwise delegate his obligations under this Agreement, except for ordinary-course delegation

to officers and employees of MetalCo and its subsidiaries in Consultant’s capacity as interim CEO of MetalCo. Company may assign this Agreement at any time to any Company affiliate upon providing written notice to Consultant.

10. Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement will be in writing and will be sufficiently given if made by: (a) email;

(b) hand delivery; (c) reputable overnight courier; or (d) registered or certified mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested). If a notice is made by email, it will be deemed received by the receiving Party once it is read by the

receiving Party or within three business days of delivery, whichever occurs first. If a notice is made by hand delivery, reputable express courier service, or by registered or certified mail, it will be deemed received by the receiving Party once it

is signed for by the receiving Party or within three business days of delivery, whichever occurs first. Notice will be sent to Consultant’s address set forth in Attachment 1.

11. Governing Law and Forum. This Agreement will be governed in all respects by the laws of Connecticut, without regard to conflict of laws

principles. Any suit involving this Agreement will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Connecticut. The Parties agree that venue will be proper in such courts, and that such courts will have personal jurisdiction over them.

12. Severability. Should any provisions of this Agreement be held by a court of law to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality,

validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected or impaired thereby.

13. Waiver. The waiver

by either Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement will not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach by the other Party.

14. Indemnification. For the avoidance of doubt, the Services to be provided by Consultant to MetalCo pursuant to this Agreement are at the

request of Company. Nothing herein shall limit or affect any rights to indemnification, or any coverage under directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by Company, that Consultant may otherwise be entitled to by

virtue of his being a director under Company’s bylaws or certificate of incorporation or under that certain Indemnification Agreement entered into between Consultant and Company dated November 30, 2012. Consultant shall execute such

documents and take such other actions as Company may reasonably request (at Company’s expense) to secure or perfect any rights of reimbursement or subrogation Company may have arising from

any payment by Company in respect of amounts for which MetalCo is or may be responsible.

15. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes

the entire understanding of the Parties relating to the subject matter and supersedes any previous oral or written communications, representations, understanding, or agreement between the Parties concerning such subject matter. This Agreement, and

any provision of this Agreement, may not be changed, modified, supplemented, waived or amended except by express written agreement signed by Consultant and Company. Any grant, payment or reimbursement contemplated by MetalCo is an obligation solely

of MetalCo (if and to the extent made or approved), and neither Company nor any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries (other than MetalCo or its direct or indirect subsidiaries, which shall have no obligations under this Agreement and whose

obligations, if any, arise solely if and when made or approved by MetalCo or such subsidiaries, as applicable) shall have any obligation or liability with respect thereto, whether as guarantor, by way of contribution or otherwise, and nothing in

this Agreement obligates Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries to fund, procure or vote in favor of any such grant, payment or reimbursement.

16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which, taken together, will be regarded as one and the same

instrument.

17. Electronic Signature and Transmission. This Agreement may be executed by electronic signature delivered by hand, facsimile

or electronic mail attachment in Portable Document Format (PDF) file format or comparable electronic file storage format. Each Party agrees that the digital signature delivery of this Agreement by hand, facsimile, or electronic transmission will

have the same force and effect as delivery of original signatures and that each Party may use such electronic transmission of signatures as evidence of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by all Parties to the same extent that an original

signature could be used.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Agreement by their signatures below as of the Effective

Date.
