BY:

Rank Group Limited, a company registered in New Zealand whose registered office is at c/o Bell Gully (GJM), Level 22, Vero Centre, 48 Shortland Street, Auckland, New Zealand (“Rank”);

IN FAVOUR AND FOR THE BENEFIT OF:

Each Indemnitee (as defined below).

BACKGROUND

A.	SIG Combibloc Group AG (“SIG”), the holding company of the Guernsey Obligor (defined below), was acquired by Beverage Packaging Holdings (Luxembourg) III S.à r.l. (“BPIII”) in mid 2007, using acquisition debt made available under a combination of senior secured bank loans under a senior facilities agreement (the “Senior Facilities Agreement”), and an issue of senior notes and senior subordinated notes (the “Notes”). The Guernsey Obligor has provided guarantees and security in relation to the Senior Facilities Agreement, and guarantees in relation to the Notes.
B.	BPIII, the sole shareholder of SIG, intends to directly and indirectly acquire the Closure Systems International business and Reynolds Consumer Products business (the “Acquisition”).
C.	In connection with the Acquisition, the existing financing arrangements put in place for the acquisition of SIG and the Closure Systems International and Reynolds Consumer Products businesses will need to be amended or replaced. The Guernsey Obligor (as defined below) will be required to:

(a)	enter into release documentation in relation to the Senior Facilities Agreement and the guarantees and security provided by the Guernsey Obligor in respect of the Senior Facilities Agreement;
(b)	guarantee the issue of new senior lien notes in an aggregate principal amount of the equivalent of approximately US$1.842 billion (the “New Notes”) and new senior bank debt in the amount of the equivalent of approximately US$1.16 billion (“New Senior Facility”);
(c)	provide senior priority security for the New Notes and the New Senior Facility over substantially all of its assets;
(d)	enter into an intercreditor agreement in respect of the New Senior Facility and the New Notes, and an intercreditor agreement in respect of the New Notes, New Senior Facility and the Notes,

	(collectively, the “Transactions”).
D.	Rank has agreed to provide an indemnity to the Indemnitees in respect of the Transactions as further described below.

It is the intention of Rank that this document be executed as a Letter of Indemnification in favour and for the benefit of each Indemnitee.
