Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits attached hereto contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties outside of their control.

Actual results may differ materially from those that are expected due to a variety of factors. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the Transactions, are more fully discussed in the proxy statement/prospectus, registration statement on Form S-4 and the registration statement on Form 10 filed with the SEC in connection with the Transactions. Discussions of additional risks and uncertainties are contained in Berry Global Group Inc.’s, Spinco’s and Magnera Corporation’s filings with the SEC.

Neither Magnera Corporation, Spinco, nor Berry Global Group Inc. is under any obligation, and each expressly disclaims any obligation, to update, alter, or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, that
