The 2007 Pro Forma Financial Information<br />

This Offering Memorandum contains unaudited condensed pro forma financial information for the<br />

year ended December 31, 2007 in the form of the 2007 Pro Forma Financial Information. The 2007 Pro<br />

Forma Financial Information is based on the audited non-statutory consolidated financial statements of<br />

<strong>Ardagh</strong> for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, aggregated with the unaudited combined financial<br />

statements of Rexam for the period from January 1, 2007 to June 20, 2007 and gives effect to the<br />

Rexam Acquisition as if it was completed on January 1, 2007. The pro forma financial information<br />

included in this Offering Memorandum has not been prepared in accordance with the requirements of<br />

Regulation S-X of the SEC or U.S. GAAP. Neither the adjustments nor the resulting pro forma<br />

financial information have been audited in accordance with International Standards on Auditing U.K.<br />

and Ireland (‘‘ISA U.K. and Ireland’’) or U.S. GAAP. In evaluating the pro forma financial<br />

information, you should carefully consider the audited financial statements of <strong>Ardagh</strong> <strong>Glass</strong> Holdings<br />

Limited and the notes thereto.<br />

The presentation of the 2007 Pro Forma Financial Information is helpful as a basis for comparing<br />

<strong>Ardagh</strong>’s results of operations in the financial year ended December 31, 2008 with <strong>Ardagh</strong>’s results of<br />

operations in the same period in 2007 in a meaningful way by giving pro forma effect to the Rexam<br />

Acquisition as if it was completed at the beginning of the 2007 financial year. A comparison of the<br />

results of operations in the 2008 financial year with the audited non-statutory consolidated financial<br />

statements for the 2007 fiscal year would not be a fair comparison of the year-on-year results of<br />

operations because the Rexam Acquisition was completed on June 21, 2007 and, consequently, the<br />

combined results of operations of <strong>Ardagh</strong> and the acquired business were only partially reflected in the<br />

audited non-statutory consolidated financial statements for the 2007 fiscal year. Nevertheless, the 2007<br />

Pro Forma Financial Information is not necessarily indicative of what actual results of operations of<br />

<strong>Ardagh</strong> would have been assuming the Rexam Acquisition had been consummated on January 1, 2007,<br />

nor does it purport to represent the results of operations for future periods.<br />
