The Subsidiary Guarantors will not incur, create, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become<br />

liable for any Debt that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Debt of the<br />

Subsidiary Guarantors and senior in any respect in right of payment to the Guarantees or any other<br />

Pari passu Debt of the Subsidiary Guarantors; provided that the foregoing limitation will not apply to<br />

arrangement, understanding or obligation of any kind, whether written or oral, with such<br />

Subsidiary unless the terms of such contract, arrangement, understanding or obligation are no<br />

less favorable to the Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that might be<br />

obtained at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of the Parent Guarantor or of any<br />

Restricted Subsidiary;<br />

(d) such Subsidiary does not own any Capital <strong>Stock</strong>, Redeemable Capital <strong>Stock</strong> or Debt of, or<br />

Guarantor or any other Restricted Subsidiary;<br />

(e) such Subsidiary is not liable, directly or indirectly, with respect to any Debt, Lien or other<br />

obligation that, if in default, would result (with the passage of time or notice or otherwise) in<br />

a default on any of the Parent Guarantor’s Debt or Debt of any Restricted Subsidiary,<br />

provided that an Unrestricted Subsidiary may provide a Guarantee for the Notes and (if<br />

providing a Guarantee of the Notes) the Existing <strong>Ardagh</strong> Bonds and the Debt outstanding<br />

under the Senior Facilities Agreement;<br />
