Item 1.01                                             Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 22, 2010, Ball Corporation (the “Company”) completed the sale of $500,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 6.75% senior notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”). The Notes were sold under the Company’s shelf registration statement (Registration No. 333-157537) (the “Registration Statement”).

The Company entered into an underwriting agreement, dated March 17, 2010 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors (the “Guarantors”) and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as representative of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), in connection with the issuance and sale by the Company of the 2020 Notes. The Underwriting Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants. It also provides for customary indemnification by each of the Company, the Guarantors and the Underwriters against certain liabilities and customary contribution provisions in respect of those liabilities.

The public offering price of the 2020 Notes was 100.000% of the principal amount. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with borrowings under its revolving credit facility or accounts receivable securitization facility or cash on hand, to redeem its 6.875% senior notes due 2012 (the “2012 Notes”), as more fully described under Item 2.04 below.

The 2020 Notes were issued under an Indenture, dated March 27, 2006 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (successor to The Bank of New York Mellon (formerly known as The Bank of New York)), as supplemented by a Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated March 22, 2010, among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee (the “Fourth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Indenture and the form of note, which is attached as an exhibit to the Indenture, provide, among other things, that the 2020 Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company.

Interest is payable on the 2020 Notes on March 15 and September 15 of each year beginning on September 15, 2010 until their maturity date of September 15, 2020. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2020 Notes at any time prior to March 15, 2015 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2020 Notes redeemed plus an applicable make-whole premium. On or after March 15, 2015, the Company may redeem some or all of the 2020 Notes at redemption prices set forth in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture. In addition, at any time prior to March 15, 2013, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes at a redemption price of 106.75% of the principal amount of the 2020 Notes redeemed with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings.

The Company’s payment obligations under the 2020 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by certain of its existing and future domestic subsidiaries, other than certain excluded subsidiaries and unrestricted subsidiaries. The 2020 Notes are not guaranteed by any of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.

The terms of the Indenture, among other things, limit in certain respects the ability of the Company to incur additional debt and issue preferred stock; pay dividends or make other restricted payments; make certain investments; create liens; allow restrictions on the ability of certain of its subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments to it; sell assets; engage in certain sale and leaseback transactions; merge or consolidate with other entities; and enter into transactions with affiliates. If the 2020 Notes are, in the future, rated investment grade by any two of Moody’s Investors Services, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services and Fitch Inc., certain of these covenants will, thereafter, no longer apply to the 2020 Notes, irrespective of whether the 2020 Notes continue to be rated investment grade.

Subject to certain limitations, in the event of a change of control of the Company, the Company will be required to make an offer to purchase the 2020 Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the 2020 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

The Indenture provides for customary events of default which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), among others, nonpayment of principal or interest; breach of other agreements in the Indenture; defaults in failure to pay certain other indebtedness; the failure to pay certain final judgments; the failure of certain guarantees to be enforceable; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes may declare all the 2020 Notes to be due and payable immediately.
