THIS AMENDMENT AGREEMENT is dated 13 August 2014 and made: BETWEEN:
1. | Closure Systems International B.V., a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands, having its official seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and its registered office address at Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 000, 0000 XX Xxxxxxxxx, xxx Xxxxxxxxxxx, and registered with the trade register of the Dutch Chamber of Commerce, under number 34291082 (the Seller); |
2. | Beverage Packaging Holdings (Luxembourg) VI S.a x.x., a private company with limited liability (Societe a responsabilite limitee) incorporated under the laws of the Grand Duchy of |
Luxembourg, having its office address at 0X Xxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, X-0000 Xxxxxxxx, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and registered with the Register of Commerce and Companies of Luxembourg under number B173.602 and having a share capital of € 55,012,500 (the Purchaser);
3. | Xxxxxxxx Packaging International B.V., a private company with limited liability ( besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands, having its official seat in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, having its office address at Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 000, 0000 XX Xxxxxxxxx, xxx Xxxxxxxxxxx and registered with the trade register of the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under number 34291103 (the Company); and |
4. | The Bank of New York Mellon, a company incorporated under the State of New York, the United States of America, having its office address at 0 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx of America (the Collateral Agent). |
WHEREAS:
(A) | This Agreement is supplemental to and amends article 2 paragraph 1 of the notarial deed of sale, transfer and pledge of shares in the capital of Xxxxxxxx Packaging International B.V. and transfer of contract, entered into by the Seller, the Purchaser, the Company and the Collateral Agent, executed before a deputy of X.X. Xxxxxxxx, civil law notary, officiating in Amsterdam, the Netherlands on 31 July 2014 (the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge). A copy of the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge is attached hereto as an annex. |
(B) | In article 2 paragraph 1 of the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge, it was provided that the purchase price for the Shares (as defined therein) amounted to one hundred and ninety-four million euros (€ 194,000,000). This amount of the purchase price had been included further to an internal restructuring steps plan setting out in the version dated 16 July 2014 in Step B that 'BPVI acquires all the shares in RPIBV from CSI BV for US$[194] million' (the RPIBV Steps Plan). The amount of € 194,000,000 was also included in the previous drafts of the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge as well as in the final draft deed thereof dated 28 July 2014 which was confirmed on behalf of the parties to the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge. However, the purchase price of € 194,000,000 in the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge did not reflect the intention of the Seller and the Purchaser for they agreed that the amount of the purchase price for the Shares was one hundred and fifty-eight million Unites States Dollars (US$ 158,000,000), as was reflected in the revised RPIBV Steps Plans of 23 July 2014 onwards, the written board resolution of the Seller dated 28 July 2014, the written board resolution of the Purchaser dated 28 July 2014 and the payment instruction signed by the Seller and Purchaser dated 31 July 2014. In addition US$ 158,000,000 was received by the Seller on 31 July 2014 as payment for the purchase of the Shares. |
(C) | The Seller, the Purchaser and the Company wish to agree, confirm and record that a mistake was made in article 2 paragraph 1 of the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge and that the |
purchase price should have amounted to US$ 158,000,000 and amend article 2 paragraph 1 of the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge accordingly.
IT IS AGREED as follows:
1. | INTERPRETATION |
Words and expressions defined in the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning when used herein.
2. | RESTATEMENT |
The Seller, the Purchaser and the Company hereby agree, confirm and record that a mistake was made in the amount of the purchase price recorded in article 2 paragraph 1 of the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge and agree to correct and amend this so that article 2 paragraph 1 will read:
"1. | The purchase price of the Shares (the Purchase Price) amounts to one hundred and fifty-eight million United States Dollars (US$ 158,000,000)." |
This Agreement is solely entered into for confirmation and documentation purposes. The Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge and this Agreement by which it is partly amended together are deemed to constitute one document which is hereafter referred to as the Amended Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge.
3. | CONFIRMATIONS |
3.1 | Collateral Agent |
All parties to the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge acknowledge that the Collateral Agent (solely in its capacity of collateral agent of the Deeds of Pledge (as defined in the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge)), is only a party to this Agreement to acknowledge the Amended Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge and in particular, the provisions of Clauses 2 and 3 of the Agreement, and without assuming any liability as a result of the aforementioned acknowledgements.
3.2 | Other confirmations |
On the date of this Agreement, each of the Seller, the Purchaser and the Company:
(a) | confirms its acceptance of the Amended Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge; |
(b) | agrees that it is bound by the terms of the Amended Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge in its respective capacity; |
(c) | confirms that as of the date of this Agreement, the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge and this Agreement will be read and construed as one document; |
(d) | except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Deed of Sale, Transfer and Pledge remains in full force and effect; and |

The Seller, the Purchaser and the Company shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent and at their own expense, do all such acts and things necessary or desirable to give effect to the amendments effected or to be effected pursuant to this Agreement.
