Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On December 12, 2013, Berry Plastics Group, Inc. (the “Registrant”) announced that its subsidiary, Berry Plastics Corporation (“Berry Corporation”), intends to obtain commitments for $1.125 billion of first lien senior secured term loans (the “New Loans”), to be structured as an incremental facility under Berry Corporation’s existing term loan credit agreement. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference into this Item 7.01.
Berry Corporation intends to use the net proceeds from the borrowing of the New Loans to prepay all of the outstanding Term C Loans, maturing April 2015, under Berry’s existing term loan credit agreement (the “Refinancing”). Berry Corporation is in discussion with lenders regarding the New Loans; however, there can be no assurance that Berry Corporation will obtain the commitments in the time frame or on the terms it expects, or at all or that the Refinancing will occur.
The information furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (including Exhibit 99.1 hereto) is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall it be incorporated by reference into future filings by the Registrant under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
