Ball Corporation Announces Pricing of Cash Tender Offers for
Certain Outstanding Debt Securities

WESTMINSTER, Colo., February 28, 2024—Ball Corporation (“Ball”) (NYSE: BALL) announced today the consideration payable in connection with its previously announced offers to purchase for cash (i) any and all of the $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 5.25% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) and (ii) any and all of the $750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes” and, together with the 2025 Notes, the “Notes”). Such offers to purchase are referred to collectively herein as the “Tender Offers” and each, a “Tender Offer.”

The following table summarizes the material pricing terms of the Tender Offers:

The Tender Offers are being made upon the terms and subject to conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, dated February 14, 2024 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”), which sets forth a detailed description of the Tender Offers.

Each Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on March 14, 2024, unless such Tender Offer is extended or earlier terminated (the “Expiration Time”). Holders of Notes must validly tender and not validly withdraw their Notes prior to or at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 28, 2024 (such time and date, as it may be extended with respect to a Tender Offer, the “Early Tender Time”), and such holders’ Notes must be accepted for purchase, to be eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration (as defined below). If a holder validly tenders Notes after the applicable Early Tender Time but prior to or at the applicable Expiration Time, and such holder’s Notes are accepted for purchase, such holder will only be eligible to receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration (as defined below). Tendered Notes may be withdrawn prior to or at, but not after, 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on February 28, 2024 (such time and date, as it may be extended with respect to a Tender Offer, the “Withdrawal Deadline”).

The applicable total consideration listed in the table above (with respect to each series of Notes, the “Total Consideration”) will be paid for each $1,000 principal amount of the Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to or at the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase pursuant to each Tender Offer. The Total Consideration includes an applicable early tender premium per $1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase as set forth in the table above (with respect to each series of Notes, the “Early Tender Premium”). Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time but prior to or at the Expiration Time and accepted for purchase will receive the Total Consideration minus the Early Tender Premium (with respect to each series of Notes, the “Tender Offer Consideration”).

In addition to the Total Consideration or the Tender Offer Consideration, as applicable, all holders of Notes accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase from the applicable last interest payment date up to, but excluding, the applicable settlement date (“Accrued Interest”).

The Total Consideration, Accrued Interest and the costs and expenses of the Tender Offers are expected to be paid with funds provided by the net cash proceeds from the closing of the previously announced sale of Ball’s aerospace business.

Each Tender Offer will expire at the applicable Expiration Time. Except as set forth below, payment for the Notes that are validly tendered prior to or at the Expiration Time and that are accepted for purchase will be made on a date promptly following the Expiration Time, which is currently anticipated to be March 15, 2024, the business day after the Expiration Time. Ball reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to make payment for Notes that are validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Time and that are accepted for purchase on an earlier settlement date, which, if applicable, is currently anticipated to be February 29, 2024, provided that the conditions to the satisfaction of the applicable Tender Offer are satisfied. Ball is not obligated to conduct any early settlement or have any early settlement occur on any particular date.

Each Tender Offer is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. If any of the conditions are not satisfied, Ball is not obligated to accept for payment, or pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of, any tendered Notes and may even terminate one or both Tender Offers. Ball reserves the right to amend, extend, terminate or waive any condition with respect to one Tender Offer without taking a similar action with respect to the other Tender Offer. Full details of the terms and conditions of the Tender Offers are included in the Offer to Purchase.
