Reynolds Group Holdings Limited Announces Commencement of Tender Offer by Reynolds Group Issuer LLC, Reynolds Group Issuer Inc. and Reynolds Group Issuer (Luxembourg) S.A. for U.S. Dollar-Denominated 7.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2016

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Reynolds Group Holdings Limited (“Reynolds Group”) announces that its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Reynolds Group Issuer LLC, Reynolds Group Issuer Inc. and Reynolds Group Issuer (Luxembourg) S.A. (together, the “Reynolds Issuers”), have commenced a cash tender offer for any and all of the Reynolds Issuers’ currently outstanding $1,125 million in aggregate principal amount of U.S. dollar-denominated 7.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2016 (the “Dollar Notes”) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Reynolds Issuers’ Offer to Purchase dated September 14, 2012 (the “Statement”).

The tender offer will expire at 12:01 a.m., New York City time, on October 13, 2012, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Reynolds Issuers (such date and time, as the same may be extended or earlier terminated, the “Expiration Time”). The Reynolds Issuers reserve the right to terminate, withdraw or amend the tender offer at any time subject to applicable law.

Certain information regarding the Dollar Notes and the terms of the tender offer is summarized in the table below:

Title of Security	CUSIP and ISIN Numbers	Principal Amount Outstanding	Total Consideration^1	Early Tender Payment^1	Tender Offer Consideration^1
7.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2016	U8001V AA8 USU8001VAA80 761733 AA2 US761733AA25 761735 AJ8 US761735AJ81	$1,125,000,000	$1,043.75	$30.00	$1,013.75

(1) Per $1,000 principal amount of Dollar Notes that are accepted for purchase.

The “Total Consideration” for the Dollar Notes as set forth in the table above includes an Early Tender Payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Dollar Notes. The Early Tender Payment is payable in respect of Dollar Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 27, 2012, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Reynolds Issuers (such date and time, as the same may be extended or earlier terminated, the “Early Tender Deadline”) and accepted for purchase. The Total Consideration minus the Early Tender Payment is referred to as the “Tender Offer Consideration.” Dollar Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Deadline and at or prior to the Expiration Time that are accepted for purchase will be eligible to receive only the Tender Offer Consideration, and not the Early Tender Payment. Dollar Notes tendered in the tender offer may be withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 27, 2012, unless extended or earlier terminated (such date and time, as the same may be extended or earlier terminated, the “Withdrawal Deadline”). Dollar Notes tendered after the Withdrawal Deadline may not be withdrawn.

At any time after the Early Tender Deadline and before the Expiration Time, the Reynolds Issuers may elect to accept for purchase any Dollar Notes then validly tendered and not subsequently withdrawn (such date and time of acceptance, the “Early Acceptance Time”), on the terms of and subject to the conditions to the tender offer. Payment for any Dollar Notes so accepted will be made promptly following the Early Acceptance Time, which is currently expected to occur on September 28, 2012, subject to all conditions to the tender offer having been satisfied or waived by the Reynolds Issuers.

This announcement is not an offer to purchase, a solicitation of an offer to purchase, or a solicitation of an offer to sell securities with respect to the Dollar Notes. The tender offer is only being made pursuant to the terms of the Statement and the related Letter of Transmittal.

The complete terms and conditions of the tender offer are set forth in the Statement that is being sent to holders of the Dollar Notes. Holders are urged to read the tender offer documents carefully before making any decision with respect to the tender offer. Holders of Dollar Notes must make their own decisions as to whether to tender their Dollar Notes, and if they decide to do so, the principal amount of the Dollar Notes to tender.

The Reynolds Issuers have engaged Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC as Dealer Manager for the tender offer. Questions and requests for assistance regarding the tender offer should be directed to Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC at [phone] (collect) or [phone] (toll free). Requests for copies of the Statement or other tender offer materials may be directed to D.F. King & Co., Inc., the Information Agent and Tender Agent for the tender offer at [phone] or [phone] (collect).

None of the Reynolds Issuers, Reynolds Group, the Dealer Manager, the Information Agent and Tender Agent or any other person makes any recommendation as to whether holders of Dollar Notes should tender their Dollar Notes, and no one has been authorized to make such a recommendation.
