As previously reported, on June 5, 2015 Berry Plastics Corporation (“Berry”) accepted for purchase $503,186,000 of its $800,000,000 aggregate original principal amount 9.75% Second Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2021 (the “Existing Notes”) pursuant to its previously announced tender offer and consent solicitation relating to the Existing Notes (the “Tender Offer”). Following Berry’s acceptance for purchase of $503,186,000 aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes on June 5, 2015 pursuant to the Tender Offer, $296,814,000 aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes remained outstanding. The Existing Notes were originally issued under an Indenture dated as of November 19, 2010, as amended and supplemented, by and among Berry, certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors, and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee (the “Indenture”).
On June 11, 2015, at Berry’s direction, the Trustee gave notice to the remaining holders of the Existing Notes of Berry’s election to redeem all of the Existing Notes remaining outstanding on July 13, 2015.
On June 11, 2015, Berry irrevocably deposited cash with the Trustee in an amount sufficient to redeem any Existing Notes outstanding on the redemption date. On June 11, 2015, the obligations of Berry and its subsidiary guarantors under the Existing Notes, the Indenture governing the Existing Notes and the related subsidiary guarantees were terminated, and the Indenture was discharged (except with respect to certain customary provisions of the Indenture that by their terms expressly survive the satisfaction and discharge).
