Indenture and 6.00% Second Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2022

On October 1, 2015 (the “Issue Date”), Berry Plastics Escrow Corporation (the “Escrow Issuer”) issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% second priority senior secured notes due 2022 (the “New Notes”) pursuant to an indenture, dated as of October 1, 2015, between the Escrow Issuer and U.S. Bank, National Association as trustee (the “Indenture”). Also on the Issue Date, Berry Plastics Corporation (“BPC”) assumed the obligations of the Escrow Issuer under the Indenture and the New Notes, and the Escrow Issuer was released. BPC is a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Berry Plastics Group, Inc. (“Berry Group”), and the Escrow Issuer is a wholly owned subsidiary of BPC. On the Issue Date, Berry Group, BPC and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”, and together with Berry Group, the “Guarantors”), which include certain of the entities acquired as a result of the transaction (the “Avintiv Transaction”) described in Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Avintiv Guarantors”), became parties to the Indenture. In addition, in accordance with the terms of certain of BPC’s other outstanding indebtedness, the Avintiv Guarantors became guarantors of such indebtedness, and certain of their assets became subject to security interests in favor of the lenders of such indebtedness.

The New Notes are senior obligations of BPC, have the benefit of the second priority security interest in the Second Priority Collateral described below and will mature on October 15, 2022. The New Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.00% per annum, payable semiannually, in cash in arrears, on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing on April 15, 2016, to holders of record at the close of business on April 1 or October 1, as the case may be, immediately preceding the interest payment date.

On or after October 15, 2018, BPC may redeem the New Notes at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail or sent electronically to each holder’s registered address, at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), if redeemed during the twelve-month period commencing on October 15 of the years set forth below:

In addition, prior to October 15, 2018, BPC may redeem the New Notes at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice mailed by first-class mail or sent electronically to each holder’s registered address, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the New Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium (as defined in the Indenture) as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, to, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).

2

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time and from time to time on or prior to October 15, 2018, BPC may redeem in the aggregate up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the New Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of additional New Notes) with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings by BPC or by any direct or indirect parent of BPC, in each case to the extent the net cash proceeds thereof are contributed to the common equity capital of BPC or used to purchase capital stock of BPC from it, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount thereof) of 106.000%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided, however, that at least 60% of the original aggregate principal amount of the New Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of additional New Notes) remain outstanding immediately after each such redemption; provided, further, that such redemption shall occur within 90 days after the date on which any such equity offering is consummated upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice mailed to each holder of New Notes being redeemed and otherwise in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

Any redemption or notice described above may, at BPC’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of a related equity offering.

The New Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a second priority senior secured basis, by the Subsidiary Guarantors. In addition, the New Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Berry Group. Under certain circumstances, subsidiaries may be released from these guarantees without the consent of the holders of the New Notes.

The New Notes and the subsidiary guarantees thereof are unsubordinated obligations of BPC and the Subsidiary Guarantors, are secured by a second priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of BPC and its existing and future guarantor subsidiaries that secure its obligations under its senior secured credit facilities, subject to certain specified exceptions, and rank equally in right of payment to all existing and future unsubordinated indebtedness of BPC and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors that are subsidiaries of BPC. The right of holders of the New Notes to receive proceeds of the collateral is contractually junior to the rights of holders of BPC’s obligations under its senior secured credit facilities, and is contractually equal to the rights of holders of BPC’s existing second priority senior secured notes.

Upon the occurrence of certain changes of control of BPC, each holder of New Notes will have the right to require BPC to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s New Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). Within 30 days following any qualifying change of control event, except to the extent that BPC has previously elected to redeem the New Notes as described above, BPC shall mail or send electronically a notice to each holder with a copy to the trustee.

The Indenture contains a number of restrictive covenants, including those relating to the following:

3

The Indenture provides that BPC may not, directly or indirectly, consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or into or wind up or convert into (whether or not BPC is the surviving person), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions to, any person unless certain conditions are met.

Upon the occurrence of certain events of default specified in the Indenture, the principal of, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding New Notes may become due and payable immediately.

The foregoing description of the New Notes and the Indenture governing the New Notes is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual text of the Indenture governing the New Notes (including the forms of New Notes included therein), which is filed herewith as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights Agreement

On October 1, 2015, BPC, the Guarantors and the initial purchasers of the New Notes entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with respect to the New Notes. The following is a brief description of the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement and is qualified by reference to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement filed as Exhibit 4.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. Capitalized terms not defined in this section shall have the meanings specified in the Registration Rights Agreement.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, BPC, and the Guarantors will agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to (x) within 220 days of October 1, 2015, file with the Commission and (y) within 270 days of October 1, 2015, cause to become effective a registration statement, on the appropriate form under the Securities Act, relating to an offer to exchange the New Notes for registered notes with terms identical to the New Notes (except that the New Notes will not be subject to restrictions on transfer or to any increase in

4

interest rate as described below) (the “Exchange Notes”). Following the effectiveness of the exchange offer registration statement, BPC, and the Guarantors will offer to the holders who are able to make certain representations the opportunity to exchange their New Notes for Exchange Notes.

If, with respect to the New Notes:

(a) it is prohibited by law or SEC policy from participating in the exchange offer;

(b) it may not resell the Exchange Notes acquired by it in the exchange offer to the public without delivering a prospectus (other than by reason of such holder’s status as our affiliate) and the prospectus contained in the exchange offer registration statement is not appropriate or available for such resales;

(c) it is a broker-dealer and owns New Notes acquired directly from us or our affiliate,

BPC and the Guarantors will be obligated, with respect to the New Notes, to file with the SEC a shelf registration statement (the “Shelf Registration”) to cover resales of the New Notes, by the holders thereof who satisfy certain conditions relating to the provision of information in connection with the Shelf Registration.

BPC and the Guarantors will use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable registration statement to be declared effective as promptly as possible by the SEC.

The Registration Rights Agreement provides that:

Additionally, the Registration Rights Agreement provides that, if:

5

then BPC and the Guarantors will pay additional interest to each holder, with respect to the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of the first Registration Default, in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the New Notes held by such holder, as applicable. The amount of the additional interest will increase by an additional 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of such New Notes, with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum amount of additional interest for all Registration Defaults of 1.0% per annum of the principal amount of such New Notes.

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual text of the Registration Rights Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 4.3 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Incremental Term Loans

On October 1, 2015, Berry Group, BPC and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement and Amendment with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as the Incremental Term Lender and as the Administrative Agent to borrow an incremental amount of $2,100,000,000 under Berry’s existing term loan credit agreement. The loans borrowed on such date (the “Term F Loans”) bear interest at the option of BPC at LIBOR plus 3.00% per annum with a LIBOR floor of 1.00% per annum or the Alternate Base Rate plus 2.00% per annum. The Term F Loans mature on October 1, 2022 and are subject to customary amortization. If certain specified repricing events occur prior to April 1, 2016, BPC will pay a fee to the applicable lenders equal to 1.00% of the outstanding principal amount of the Term F Loans subject to such repricing event.

The proceeds of the Term F Loans were used to fund a portion of the cash consideration due in respect of the Avintiv Transaction, to pay off or otherwise satisfy certain outstanding Avintiv indebtedness, and to pay costs and expenses of the Avintiv Transaction.

The Incremental Assumption Agreement and Amendment amended BPC’s existing Term Credit Agreement to, among other things, include limited condition acquisition provisions for future acquisitions; increase the total net first lien net leverage ratio applicable to the incurrence of certain secured indebtedness and related liens from 3.75 to 1.0, to 4.0 to 1.0; increase the threshold at which real property mortgages must be granted, from $5 million to $10 million; and permit the release of existing mortgages on real property with a value below $10 million.

BPC’s existing revolving credit agreement, which already included the latter two provisions, was also amended to incorporate the limited condition acquisition and total net first lien net leverage ratio modifications described above.
