Brendan Barba and The Brendan Barba GRAT Number Nine; (ii) Carolyn D. Vegliante, on behalf of herself and her children; (iii) Lauren K. Powers; (iv) John J.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

On August 24, 2016 the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Parent, Berry Plastics Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Holdings”), Berry Plastics Acquisition Corporation XVI, a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings (“Merger Sub”), and Berry Plastics Acquisition Corporation XV, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings (“Merger Sub LLC”), providing for (i) the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Issuer (the “First-Step Merger”), with the Issuer surviving the First-Step Merger, and, (ii) thereafter, the merger of the Issuer with and into Merger Sub LLC (the “Second-Step Merger” and, together with the First-Step Merger, the “Integrated Mergers”), with Merger Sub LLC surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings.

At the effective time of the First-Step Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of Common Stock (including shares underlying Issuer’s restricted stock awards), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares of Common Stock (i) owned by the Issuer as treasury stock, (ii) owned by Parent, Holdings, Merger Sub or Merger Sub LLC and (iii) shares of Common Stock with respect to which holders have properly exercised and perfected a demand for appraisal rights pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law) will be converted into the right to receive, at the stockholder’s election, $110 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) or 2.5011 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of Parent common stock (the “Stock Consideration” and, together with the Cash Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Consideration in the Integrated Mergers will be prorated as necessary to ensure that 50% of the total outstanding shares of the Issuer entitled to receive Merger Consideration will be exchanged for cash and 50% of such shares will be exchanged for Parent common stock.

Voting Agreements

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Persons (in addition to the other parties to the Voting Agreements) entered into the Voting Agreements. The Voting Agreements generally require, subject to certain exceptions, such stockholders to vote, or cause or direct to be voted, all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement and the Integrated Mergers and against matters that would reasonably be expected to materially impede, interfere with, delay or postpone any of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Additionally, the stockholders are prohibited from (i) taking certain actions to solicit,

9

initiate or knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any alternative acquisition proposal provided that the stockholders may take such actions consistent with the Merger Agreement in their respective capacities as officers or directors of the Issuer or (ii) transferring their shares, subject to certain exceptions. The voting agreements automatically terminate without any further action required by any person upon the earliest to occur of (a) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms; (b) the Effective Time; and (c) except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the making of any material change, by amendment, waiver or other modification to any provision of the Merger Agreement that decreases the amount or changes the form of the consideration to the stockholders of the Issuer.

The foregoing summaries of the Merger Agreement and Voting Agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of such agreements which are incorporated by reference as Exhibits 1 and 2, respectively.

The Reporting Persons have not expended any funds in connection with the execution of the Voting Agreements. As Paul C. Vegliante is the spouse of Carolyn D. Vegliante and a trustee of Carolyn Vegliante Children’s Trust, he may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of the Common Stock held be each of the other Reporting Persons.

Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D or as contemplated by the Merger Agreement and Voting Agreements, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals which relate to or which would result in any of the transactions described in Item 4 of this statement.

(b) See the information contained on the cover pages to this Schedule 13D which is incorporated herein by reference.

(c) There have been no reportable transactions with respect to the Common Stock of the Issuer since the most recent filing on Schedule 13D by the Reporting Persons, except as described herein.

(d) None.

(e) Not applicable.

Except as set forth in Item 4 of this statement, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among any of the Reporting Persons and any other person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

ARTICLE I

Section 5.06 Specific Performance. Each party acknowledges that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any covenant or agreement in this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and therefore agrees that, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right available to the parties, each party will have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Each party agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by a party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by a party.

Section 5.07 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

Until and unless each party has received (by electronic communication, facsimile or otherwise) a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto, this Agreement shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signature.

Section 5.08 Severability. If any term, provision or covenant of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. If a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit such term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not

exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision.

Section 5.09 Capacity. Stockholder is signing this Agreement solely in Stockholder’s capacity as a stockholder of the Company, and not in any other capacity and this Agreement shall not limit or otherwise affect any actions taken, or required or permitted to be taken, by Stockholder or any Affiliate, employee, designee or Representative of Stockholder or any of its Affiliates in any other capacity, including, if applicable, as an officer or director of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, including to disclose information acquired solely in such Stockholder’s capacity as a director or officer of the Company, and any actions taken (whatsoever), or failure to take any actions (whatsoever), by such Stockholder in such capacity as a director or officer of the Company shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Agreement.

Section 5.10 Non-Recourse. Each party to this Agreement enters into this Agreement solely on its own behalf, the obligations each Stockholder under this Agreement are several (with respect to itself) and not joint with the obligations of any other Stockholder and each such party shall be liable, severally and not jointly, solely for any breaches of this Agreement by such party and in no event shall any party be liable for breaches of this Agreement by any other party hereto. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Stockholder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the parties as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the parties are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to the obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.11 No Agreement Until Executed.
