Section 2 – Financial Information

On January 3, 2013, Crown Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Crown Americas LLC and Crown Americas Capital Corp. IV (together, the “Issuers”) agreed to issue and sell to several purchasers, for whom Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. is acting as representative, $800,000,000 aggregate principal amount of their 4  ¹/₂% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”). The Notes will be sold in a private placement and resold by the initial purchasers to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S of the Securities Act. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.

The Notes will mature on January 15, 2023 and will accrue interest at a rate of 4 ¹/₂% per year. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on July 15, 2013. The Issuers may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time by paying a make-whole premium, plus accrued an unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date.

If the Issuers or the Company experiences a change of control, the Issuers may be required to offer to purchase the Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

The Notes are senior obligations of the Issuers and will be unconditionally guaranteed on a senior basis by the Company and each of the Company’s present and future U.S. subsidiaries that guarantees obligations under the Company’s senior secured credit facilities.
