Pactiv Announces Expiration and Final Results of the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation for its
6.400% Notes due January 15, 2018
LAKE FOREST, Ill. November 16, 2010 Pactiv Corporation (NYSE: PTV), a leader in the consumer
and foodservice packaging markets, announced today that it has been acquired by Reynolds Group
Holdings Limited (Reynolds Group) pursuant to the terms of the previously announced merger
agreement between the parties. Immediately following the consummation of the merger transaction,
Pactiv accepted for payment all of its 6.400% Notes due 2018 (the 2018 Notes) validly tendered
pursuant to its tender offer and consent solicitation relating to the 2018 Notes. The purchased
notes were canceled.
The tender offer and consent solicitation for Pactivs 2018 Notes expired at 12:01 a.m. New York
City time on November 16, 2010. As of that time, holders of (i) approximately $234,336,000 of
aggregate principal amount of 2018 Notes had validly tendered their 2018 Notes with the related
consents delivered and (ii) approximately $385,000 of aggregate principal amount of 2018 Notes had
validly delivered their consents without tendering their 2018 Notes.
Based on the receipt of the required consents in connection with the tender offer and consent
solicitation for the 2018 Notes, Pactiv and the trustee under the related indenture executed a new
global note to eliminate the change of control covenants contained in the then-existing global
note governing the 2018 Notes.
This news release is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to buy or the
solicitation of an offer to sell Pactivs 6.400% Notes due 2018. The tender offer and consent
solicitation for Pactivs 2018 Notes was made only pursuant to the offer to purchase and consent
solicitation statement, consent and letter of transmittal and related materials that Pactiv
previously distributed to noteholders.
