NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts

1.Segment Information

The Company has four reportable segments based on its geographic locations:  Europe, North America, South America and Asia Pacific.  These four segments are aligned with the Company’s internal approach to managing, reporting, and evaluating performance of its global glass operations.  Certain assets and activities not directly related to one of the regions or to glass manufacturing are reported with Retained corporate costs and other.  These include licensing, equipment manufacturing, global engineering, and certain equity investments.  Retained corporate costs and other also includes certain headquarters administrative and facilities costs and certain incentive compensation and other benefit plan costs that are global in nature and are not allocable to the reportable segments.

The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is segment operating profit, which consists of consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs.  The Company’s management uses segment operating profit, in combination with net sales and selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources.  Segment operating profit for reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided.

Financial information for the three-months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 regarding the Company’s reportable segments is as follows:

	2015		2014

3.  Inventories

Major classes of inventory are as follows:

	March 31,		December 31,		March 31,
	2015		2014		2014
Finished goods	$	858	$	884	$	1,037
Raw materials	109		110		121
Operating supplies	40		41		46
	$	1,007	$	1,035	$	1,204

4. Derivative Instruments

The Company has certain derivative assets and liabilities which consist of natural gas forwards and foreign exchange option and forward contracts.  The Company uses an income approach to valuing these contracts.  Natural gas forward rates and foreign exchange rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models.  These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds, and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy.  The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values.

Commodity Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

In North America, the Company enters into commodity forward contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements, the objectives of which are to limit the effects of fluctuations in the future market price paid for natural gas and the related volatility in cash flows. The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market and related price risk and periodically enters into commodity forward contracts in order to hedge a portion of its usage requirements. The majority of the sales volume in North America is tied to customer contracts that contain provisions that pass the price of natural gas to the customer.  In certain of these contracts, the customer has the option of fixing the natural gas price component for a specified period of time.  At March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had entered into commodity forward contracts covering approximately 5,400,000 MMBTUs and 4,400,000 MMBTUs, respectively, primarily related to customer requests to lock the price of natural gas.

The Company accounts for the above forward contracts as cash flow hedges at March 31, 2015 and recognizes them on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as, and meets the required criteria for, a cash flow hedge is recorded in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income component of share owners’ equity (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the underlying hedged item affects earnings.  An unrecognized loss of less than $1 million at March 31, 2015 and an unrecognized gain of $2 million at March 31, 2014 related to the commodity forward contracts was included in Accumulated OCI, and will be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve to twenty-four months.  Any material portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge that is deemed to be ineffective is recognized in current earnings.  The ineffectiveness related to these natural gas hedges for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was not material.

The effect of the commodity forward contracts on the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

				Amount of Gain
Amount of Gain				Reclassified from
Recognized in OCI on				Accumulated OCI into Income
Commodity Forward Contracts				(reported in Cost of goods sold)
(Effective Portion)				(Effective Portion)
2015		2014		2015		2014
$	—	$	2	$	—	$	1

Forward Exchange Derivative Contracts not Designated as Hedging Instruments

The Company may enter into short-term forward exchange or option agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. Subsidiaries may also use forward exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency risk for receivables and payables, including intercompany receivables, payables and loans, not denominated in, or indexed to, their functional currencies. The Company records these short-term forward exchange agreements on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value are recognized in current earnings.

At March 31, 2015 and 2014, various subsidiaries of the Company had outstanding forward exchange and option agreements denominated in various currencies covering the equivalent of approximately $532 million and $670 million, respectively, related primarily to intercompany transactions and loans.

The effect of the forward exchange derivative contracts on the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

	Amount of Gain (Loss)
Location of Gain (Loss)	Recognized in Income on
Recognized in Income on	Forward Exchange Contracts
Forward Exchange Contracts	2015		2014
Other expense, net	$	11	$	(1	)

Balance Sheet Classification

The Company records the fair values of derivative financial instruments on the balance sheet as follows: (a) receivables if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity within one year, (b) other assets if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity after one year, (c) other liabilities (current) if the instrument has a negative fair value and maturity within one year, and (d) other long-term liabilities if the instrument has a negative fair value and maturity after one year.  The following table shows the amount and classification (as noted above) of the Company’s derivatives:

5.  Restructuring Accruals

Selected information related to the restructuring accruals for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

	European Asset Optimization			Asia Pacific Restructuring			Other Restructuring Actions			Total Restructuring
Balance at January 1, 2015	$	12		$	12		$	36		$	60
Net cash paid, principally severance and related benefits				(1		)	(9		)	(10		)
Other, including foreign exchange translation	(1		)	(1		)	(2		)	(4		)
Balance at March 31, 2015	$	11		$	10		$	25		$	46
Balance at January 1, 2014	$	30		$	20		$	64		$	114
Net cash paid, principally severance and related benefits	(2		)	(4		)	(15		)	(21		)
Other, including foreign exchange translation	(1		)	(4		)	(3		)	(8		)
Balance at March 31, 2014	$	27		$	12		$	46		$	85

The Company’s decisions to curtail selected production capacity have resulted in write downs of certain long-lived assets to the extent their carrying amounts exceeded fair value or fair value less cost to sell.  The Company classified the significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of the impaired assets, which was not material, as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as set forth in the general accounting principles for fair value measurements.

6.  Pension Benefit Plans

The components of the net periodic pension cost for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:

	U.S.						Non-U.S.
	2015			2014			2015			2014
Service cost	$	6		$	6		$	4		$	7
Interest cost	24			27			12			18
Expected asset return	(42		)	(43		)	(21		)	(22		)
Amortization:
Actuarial loss	19			18			5			4
Net periodic pension cost	$	7		$	8		$	—		$	7

7.  Income Taxes

The Company performs a quarterly review of the annual effective tax rate and makes changes if necessary based on new information or events. The estimated annual effective tax rate is forecasted quarterly using actual historical information and forward-looking estimates. The estimated annual effective tax rate may fluctuate due to changes in forecasted annual operating income; changes in the forecasted mix of earnings by country; changes to the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (such changes would be recorded discretely in the quarter in which they occur); changes to actual or forecasted permanent book to tax differences (non-deductible expenses); impacts from future tax settlements with state, federal or foreign tax authorities (such changes would be recorded discretely in the quarter in which they occur); or impacts from tax law changes. To the extent such changes impact deferred tax assets/liabilities, these changes would generally be recorded discretely in the quarter in which they occur.  Additionally, the annual effective tax rate differs from the statutory U.S. Federal tax rate of 35% primarily because of valuation allowances in some jurisdictions and varying non-U.S. tax rates.

In the U.S., the Company had experienced cumulative losses in previous years and has recorded a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. The Company’s U.S. operations are in a three-year cumulative income position, but this is not solely determinative of the need for a valuation allowance. The Company considered this factor and all other available positive and negative evidence and concluded that it is still more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets in the U.S. will not be realized, and accordingly continued to record a valuation allowance. The evidence considered included the magnitude of the current three-year cumulative income compared to historical losses, expected impact of tax planning strategies, interest rates, and the overall business environment. The Company continues to evaluate its cumulative income position and income trend as well as its future projections of sustained profitability and whether this profitability trend constitutes sufficient positive evidence to support a reversal of the valuation allowance (in full or in part). The amount of the valuation allowance recorded in the U.S. as of December 31, 2014 was $927 million.

On May 19, 2011, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers entered into the Secured Credit Agreement (the “Prior Agreement”).  At March 31, 2015, the Prior Agreement included a $900 million revolving credit facility, a $390 million term loan, a 76 million Canadian dollar term loan, and a €85 million term loan, each of which had a final maturity date of May 19, 2016.  At March 31, 2015, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers had unused credit of $558 million available under the Prior Agreement.  The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Prior Agreement at March 31, 2015 was 1.70%.

On April 22, 2015, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers entered into a new Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “New Agreement”), which amended and restated the Prior Agreement.  The New Agreement includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $600 million multicurrency revolving credit facility, a $600 million term loan, a €279 million term loan and a $300 million delayed draw term loan available until October 22, 2015, each of which has a final maturity date of April 22, 2020.  The proceeds from the New Agreement were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the Prior Agreement and will be available for other general corporate purposes, including the repayment of other existing indebtedness.

The New Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, engage in certain affiliate transactions, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain subordinated debt obligations.

12

The New Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Leverage Ratio, that requires the Company not to exceed a ratio of 4.0x calculated by dividing consolidated total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, by Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the New Agreement.  The maximum Leverage Ratio is subject to an increase of 0.5x for the four fiscal quarters following the consummation of certain qualifying acquisitions as defined in the New Agreement.  The Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum.

Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the New Agreement.  In such an event, the Company could not request borrowings under the revolving facility, and all amounts outstanding under the New Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable.  If an event of default occurs under the New Agreement and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the New Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities.  A default or event of default under the New Agreement, indentures or agreements governing other indebtedness could also lead to an acceleration of debt under other debt instruments that contain cross acceleration or cross-default provisions.

The Leverage Ratio also determines pricing under the New Agreement.  The interest rate on borrowings under the New Agreement is, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the New Agreement.  These rates include a margin linked to the Leverage Ratio.  The margins range from 1.25% to 1.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.25% to 0.75% for Base Rate loans.  In addition, a fee is payable on the revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum linked to the Leverage Ratio.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Prior Agreement.  In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow funds under the New Agreement will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions.

Borrowings under the New Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate, of certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries.  Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of certain of intercompany debt and equity in most of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and, in the case of foreign borrowings, of stock of certain foreign subsidiaries.  All borrowings under the New Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company for the term of the New Agreement.

During December 2014, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $500 million that bear interest at 5.00% and are due January 15, 2022 (the “Senior Notes due 2022”).  The Company also issued senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 5.375% and are due January 15, 2025 (the “Senior Notes due 2025,” and together with the Senior Notes due 2022, the “New Senior Notes”).  The New Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.  The net proceeds from the New Senior Notes, after deducting debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $790 million and were used to purchase $611 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.00% 2015 Exchangeable Senior Notes.  Approximately $18 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.00% 2015 Exchangeable Senior Notes remain outstanding as of March 31, 2015.

9.  Contingencies

Asbestos

The Company is a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging bodily injury and death as a result of exposure to asbestos dust.  From 1948 to 1958, one of the Company’s former business units commercially produced and sold approximately $40 million of a high-temperature, calcium-silicate based pipe and block insulation material containing asbestos.  The Company exited the pipe and block insulation business in April 1958.  The typical asbestos personal injury lawsuit alleges various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability and seeks compensatory and in some cases, punitive damages in various amounts (herein referred to as “asbestos claims”).

As of March 31, 2015, the Company has determined that it is a named defendant in asbestos lawsuits and claims involving approximately 2,200 plaintiffs and claimants.  Based on an analysis of the lawsuits pending as of December 31, 2014, approximately 81% of plaintiffs either

14

do not specify the monetary damages sought, or in the case of court filings, claim an amount sufficient to invoke the jurisdictional minimum of the trial court.  Approximately 13% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages above the jurisdictional minimum up to, and including, $15 million or less, and 5% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages greater than $15 million but less than $100 million.  Fewer than 1% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages equal to or greater than $100 million.

As indicated by the foregoing summary, current pleading practice permits considerable variation in the assertion of monetary damages.  The Company’s experience resolving hundreds of thousands of asbestos claims and lawsuits over an extended period demonstrates that the monetary relief that may be alleged in a complaint bears little relevance to a claim’s merits or disposition value.  Rather, the amount potentially recoverable is determined by such factors as the severity of the plaintiff’s asbestos disease, the product identification evidence against the Company and other defendants, the defenses available to the Company and other defendants, the specific jurisdiction in which the claim is made, and the plaintiff’s medical history and exposure to other disease-causing agents.

In addition to the pending claims set forth above, the Company has claims-handling agreements in place with many plaintiffs’ counsel throughout the country.  These agreements require evaluation and negotiation regarding whether particular claimants qualify under the criteria established by such agreements. The criteria for such claims include verification of a compensable illness and a reasonable probability of exposure to a product manufactured by the Company’s former business unit during its manufacturing period ending in 1958.

The Company has also been a defendant in other asbestos-related lawsuits or claims involving maritime workers, medical monitoring claimants, co-defendants and property damage claimants.  Based upon its past experience, the Company believes that these categories of lawsuits and claims will not involve any material liability and they are not included in the above description of pending matters or in the following description of disposed matters.

Since receiving its first asbestos claim, the Company as of March 31, 2015, has disposed of the asbestos claims of approximately 395,000 plaintiffs and claimants at an average indemnity payment per claim of approximately $8,900.  Certain of these dispositions have included deferred amounts payable.  Deferred amounts payable totaled approximately $16 million at March 31, 2015 ($13 million at December 31, 2014) and are included in the foregoing average indemnity payment per claim.  The Company’s asbestos indemnity payments have varied on a per claim basis, and are expected to continue to vary considerably over time.  As discussed above, a part of the Company’s objective is to achieve, where possible, resolution of asbestos claims pursuant to claims-handling agreements.  Failure of claimants to meet certain medical and product exposure criteria in the Company’s administrative claims handling agreements has generally reduced the number of claims that would otherwise have been received by the Company in the tort system.  In addition, certain courts and legislatures have reduced or eliminated the number of claims that the Company otherwise would have received by the Company in the tort system.  These developments generally have had the effect of increasing the Company’s per-claim average indemnity payment over time.

The Company believes that its ultimate asbestos-related liability (i.e., its indemnity payments or other claim disposition costs plus related legal fees) cannot reasonably be estimated. Beginning with the initial liability of $975 million established in 1993, the Company has accrued a total of approximately $4.4 billion through 2014, before insurance recoveries, for its asbestos-related liability.  The Company’s ability to reasonably estimate its liability has been significantly affected

15

by, among other factors, the volatility of asbestos-related litigation in the United States, the significant number of co-defendants that have filed for bankruptcy, the inherent uncertainty of future disease incidence and claiming patterns against the Company, the significant expansion of the defendants that are now sued in this litigation, and the continuing changes in the extent to which these defendants participate in the resolution of cases in which the Company is also a defendant.

The Company has continued to monitor trends that may affect its ultimate liability and has continued to analyze the developments and variables affecting or likely to affect the resolution of pending and future asbestos claims against the Company. The material components of the Company’s accrued liability are based on amounts determined by the Company in connection with its annual comprehensive review and consist of the following estimates, to the extent it is probable that such liabilities have been incurred and can be reasonably estimated: (i) the liability for asbestos claims already asserted against the Company; (ii) the liability for asbestos claims not yet asserted against the Company, but which the Company believes will be asserted in the next several years; and (iii) the legal defense costs likely to be incurred in connection with the claims the Company believes will be asserted in the next several years.

The significant assumptions underlying the material components of the Company’s accrual relate to:

a)the extent to which settlements are limited to claimants who were exposed to the Company’s asbestos-containing insulation prior to its exit from that business in 1958;

b)the extent to which claims are resolved under the Company’s administrative claims agreements or on terms comparable to those set forth in those agreements;

c)the extent of decrease or increase in the incidence of serious asbestos-related disease cases and claiming patterns against the Company for such cases;

d)the extent to which the Company is able to defend itself successfully at trial or on appeal;

e)   the number and timing of additional co-defendant bankruptcies; and

f)the extent to which co-defendants with substantial resources and assets continue to participate significantly in the resolution of future asbestos lawsuits and claims.

As noted above, the Company conducts a comprehensive review of its asbestos-related liabilities and costs annually in connection with finalizing and reporting its annual results of operations, unless significant changes in trends or new developments warrant an earlier review.  If the results of an annual comprehensive review indicate that the existing amount of the accrued liability is insufficient to cover its estimated future asbestos-related costs, then the Company will record an appropriate charge to increase the accrued liability.  The Company believes that a reasonable estimation of the probable amount of the liability for claims not yet asserted against the Company is not possible beyond a period of several years.  Therefore, while the results of future annual comprehensive reviews cannot be determined, the Company expects that the addition of one year to the estimation period will usually result in an annual charge.

The Company’s reported results of operations for 2014 were materially affected by the $135 million fourth quarter charge for asbestos-related costs and asbestos-related payments continue to be substantial.  Any future additional charge would likewise materially affect the Company’s

16

results of operations for the period in which it is recorded. Also, the continued use of significant amounts of cash for asbestos-related costs has affected and may continue to affect the Company’s cost of borrowing and its ability to pursue global or domestic acquisitions. However, the Company believes that its operating cash flows and other sources of liquidity will be sufficient to pay its obligations for asbestos-related costs and to fund its working capital and capital expenditure requirements on a short-term and long-term basis.

Other Matters

The Company conducted an internal investigation into conduct in certain of its overseas operations that may have violated the anti-bribery provisions of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), the FCPA’s books and records and internal controls provisions, the Company’s own internal policies, and various local laws.  In October 2012, the Company voluntarily disclosed these matters to the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

On July 18, 2013, the Company received a letter from the DOJ indicating that it presently did not intend to take any enforcement action and is closing its inquiry into the matter.

As disclosed in previous periods, the Company is presently unable to predict the duration, scope or result of an investigation by the SEC, if any, or whether the SEC will commence any legal action.  The SEC has a broad range of civil sanctions under the FCPA and other laws and regulations including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, disgorgement, penalties, and modifications to business practices.  The Company could also be subject to investigation and sanctions outside the United States.  While the Company is currently unable to quantify the impact of any potential sanctions or remedial measures, it does not expect such actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, results of operations or financial condition.

Other litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are non-routine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief.  The Company records a liability for such matters when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated.  Recorded amounts are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the factors upon which the estimates are based, including additional information, negotiations, settlements and other events.

On February 4, 2015, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “ASR Counterparty”) to repurchase $100 million of its common stock. The Company advanced $100 million to the ASR Counterparty on February 5, 2015, and received 3,509,496 shares, which represented eighty five percent of the total shares as calculated using the closing price on February 4, 2015.  The remaining number of shares to be delivered will be based on the daily volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the term of the ASR. The ASR is expected to be settled in the second quarter of this year.  Under the terms of the ASR program, the ASR Counterparty was permitted, in accordance with the applicable requirements of the federal securities laws, to separately trade in the Company’s shares.

The Company has 250,000,000 shares of common stock authorized with a par value of $.01 per share. Shares outstanding are as follows:

12. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

20

	Three months ended March 31,
	2015		2014
Numerator:
Net earnings attributable to the Company	$	71	$	101
Denominator (in thousands):
Denominator for basic earnings per share - weighted average shares outstanding	162,146		164,760
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options and other	1,141		1,405
Denominator for diluted earnings per share - adjusted weighted average shares outstanding	163,287		166,165
Basic earnings per share:
Earnings from continuing operations	$	0.44	$	0.62
Loss from discontinued operations			(0.01		)
Net earnings	$	0.44	$	0.61
Diluted earnings per share:
Earnings from continuing operations	$	0.44	$	0.62
Loss from discontinued operations			(0.01		)
Net earnings	$	0.44	$	0.61

Options to purchase 1,798,933 and 370,012 weighted average shares of common stock which were outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares.

13. Supplemental Cash Flow Information

	Three months ended March 31,
	2015		2014
Interest paid in cash	$	59	$	70
Income taxes paid in cash (non-U.S.)	$	32	$	31

14.  Discontinued Operations

On March 10, 2015, a tribunal constituted under the auspices of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) awarded a subsidiary of the Company more than $455 million in an international arbitration against Venezuela related to the 2010 expropriation of the Company’s majority interest in two plants in that country.  Subsequently, Venezuela has announced that it has started the process of filing for an annulment of this award.  The annulment process can take up to several years to complete.  The Company is unable at this stage to predict the amount, or timing of compensation it will ultimately receive under the award. Therefore, the Company has not recognized this award in its financial statements.

A separate arbitration is pending with ICSID to obtain compensation primarily for third-party minority shareholders’ lost interests in the two expropriated plants.

The loss from discontinued operations of $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 is related to ongoing costs for the 2010 Venezuela expropriation.  The loss from discontinued operations was less than $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and also related to ongoing costs for the Venezuela expropriation.

15. New Accounting Pronouncement

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.  The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

On April 1, 2015, the FASB proposed deferring the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The FASB also proposed permitting early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2016.

Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge. It is effective for the Company on January 1, 2016, but

22

early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

16.  Financial Information for Subsidiary Guarantors and Non-Guarantors

The following presents condensed consolidating financial information for the Company, segregating:  (1) Owens-Illinois, Inc., the issuer of senior debentures (the “Parent”); (2) the two subsidiaries which have guaranteed the senior debentures on a subordinated basis (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”); and (3) all other subsidiaries (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”).  The Guarantor Subsidiaries are 100% owned direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company and their guarantees are full, unconditional and joint and several.  They have no operations and function only as intermediate holding companies.

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform all of the financial information to the financial presentation on a consolidated basis.  The principal eliminations relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is segment operating profit, which consists of consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs.  The segment data presented below is prepared in accordance with general accounting principles for segment reporting.  The line titled “reportable segment totals”, however, is a non-GAAP measure when presented outside of the financial statement footnotes.  Management has included reportable segment totals below to facilitate the discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.  The Company’s management uses segment operating profit, in combination with net sales and selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources.

Financial information for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 regarding the Company’s reportable segments is as follows (dollars in millions):

Executive Overview — Quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2014

First Quarter 2015 Highlights

·The unfavorable effect of foreign currency exchange rates reduced net sales by 12% and segment operating profit by 16% compared to the prior year quarter

·Net interest expense declined due to lower debt levels and a weaker Euro compared to the prior year quarter

·$100 million of shares of common stock repurchased

Net sales for the first quarter of 2015 were $218 million lower than the first quarter of the prior year primarily due to the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and an approximate 2.5% decrease in global glass container shipments, driven by lower volumes in Asia Pacific, partially offset by higher selling prices.

Segment operating profit for reportable segments for the first quarter of 2015 was $50 million lower than the first quarter of the prior year.  The decrease was mainly attributable to the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  In addition, lower production volumes and cost inflation increased operating costs in the quarter.  Lower sales volumes also decreased segment operating profit.  Partially offsetting these items were improved selling prices.

31

Net interest expense for the first quarter of 2015 decreased $7 million compared to the first quarter of 2014.  The decrease was primarily due to lower debt levels and the weaker Euro exchange rate in relation to the U.S. dollar.

For the first quarter of 2015, the Company recorded earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company of $71 million, or $0.44 per share (diluted), compared to $102 million, or $0.62 per share (diluted), in the first quarter of 2014.

Results of Operations — First Quarter of 2015 compared with First Quarter of 2014

Net Sales

The Company’s net sales in the first quarter of 2015 were $1,421 million compared with $1,639 million for the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $218 million, or 13%. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, primarily due to a weaker Euro, Brazilian real, Colombian peso, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar, impacted sales by $199 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014.  Glass container shipments, in tonnes, were down approximately 2.5% in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014, driven by lower sales in Asia Pacific. Higher selling prices, primarily in South America, benefited net sales in the quarter.

The change in net sales of reportable segments can be summarized as follows (dollars in millions):

Net sales - 2014				$	1,633
Price	$	11
Sales volume	(40		)
Effects of changing foreign currency rates	(199		)
Total effect on net sales				(228		)
Net sales - 2015				$	1,405

Europe:  Net sales in Europe in the first quarter of 2015 were $567 million compared with $706 million for the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $139 million, or 20%.  The primary reason for the decline in net sales in Europe in the first quarter of 2015 was a $128 million impact due to foreign currency exchange rate changes, as the Euro weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar.  Glass container shipments in the first quarter of 2015 were down 1% compared to the first quarter of 2014, resulting in a $1 million decrease in net sales, driven by slightly lower shipments in the beer and wine categories.  Selling prices also decreased in Europe due to competitive pressures and resulted in a $10 million decrease in net sales.  Similar pricing pressures are expected to continue in Europe for the second quarter of 2015.

North America:  Net sales in North America in the first quarter of 2015 were $470 million compared with $485 million for the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $15 million, or 3%.  Glass container shipments were down 2% in the quarter compared to the prior year and this decreased sales by $12 million.  Lower shipments to the region’s major beer customers were the main contributor to the sales decline in the quarter.  Higher selling prices increased net sales by $3 million in the first quarter of 2015.  Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate changes decreased net sales by $6 million, as the Canadian dollar weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar.

32

South America:  Net sales in South America in the first quarter of 2015 were $205 million compared with $239 million for the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $34 million, or 14%.  The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes decreased net sales $42 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to 2014, principally due to a decline in the Brazilian real and Colombian peso in relation to the U.S. dollar.  Glass container shipments were down 1% in the quarter compared to the same quarter in the prior year and this decreased sales by $7 million but were more than offset by $15 million of improved pricing in the current quarter.

Asia Pacific:  Net sales in Asia Pacific in the first quarter of 2015 were $163 million compared with $203 million for the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $40 million, or 20%.  The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes during the first quarter of 2015, primarily due to the weakening of the Australian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar, decreased net sales by $23 million.  The decrease in net sales was also partially due to lower sales volume, which resulted in $20 million of lower sales in the first quarter of 2015.  Glass container shipments were down 15% compared to the same quarter in the prior year primarily due to planned plant closures in China and due to ongoing weak beer and wine demand in Australia.  Selling prices were $3 million higher in the current quarter.

Segment Operating Profit

Operating profit of the reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided.  Unallocated corporate expenses and certain other expenses not directly related to the reportable segments’ operations are included in Retained corporate costs and other.  For further information, see Segment Information included in Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Segment operating profit of reportable segments in the first quarter of 2015 was $168 million compared to $218 million for the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $50 million, or 23%.  The decrease in segment operating profit was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates.  In addition, lower production volumes and cost inflation increased operating costs in the quarter.  Lower sales volumes also decreased segment operating profit.  Partially offsetting these items were improved selling prices.

33

The change in segment operating profit of reportable segments can be summarized as follows (dollars in millions):

Segment operating profit - 2014				$	218
Price	$	11
Sales volume	(8		)
Operating costs	(18		)
Effects of changing foreign currency rates	(35		)
Total net effect on segment operating profit				(50		)
Segment operating profit - 2015				$	168

Europe:  Segment operating profit in Europe in the first quarter of 2015 was $49 million compared with $87 million in the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $38 million, or 44%.  The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rates in the first quarter of 2015 decreased segment operating profit by $19 million compared to the prior year quarter.  As planned, the region carried out more furnace rebuilds and asset optimization projects in the first quarter of 2015 and this led to higher costs and temporarily reduced production volumes.  This activity contributed to the $9 million increase to operating expenses in Europe in the first quarter compared to the prior year quarter.  Lower selling prices impacted segment operating profit by $10 million in the quarter.

North America:  Segment operating profit in North America in the first quarter of 2015 was $71 million compared with $65 million in the first quarter of 2014, an increase of $6 million, or 9%.  Lower energy, supply chain and logistics costs more than offset the impact of temporary production curtailments to reduce inventory levels in the region in the first quarter of 2015.  In total, operating costs were $6 million lower in the first quarter of 2015 than the prior year quarter.  Higher selling prices increased segment operating profit by $3 million in the quarter.  The decrease in sales volume discussed above impacted segment operating profit by $3 million.

South America:  Segment operating profit in South America in the first quarter of 2015 was $30 million compared with $41 million in the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $11 million, or 27%.  The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rates, especially the Brazilian real and Colombian peso, decreased segment operating profit by $11 million in the current year quarter.  Segment operating profit was also impacted by $14 million of higher operating costs, primarily due to energy and soda ash inflation in Brazil.  The decrease in sales volume discussed above impacted segment operating profit by $1 million.  Partially offsetting these declines were higher selling prices that increased segment operating profit in the first quarter of 2015 by $15 million.

Asia Pacific:  Segment operating profit in Asia Pacific in the first quarter of 2015 was $18 million compared with $25 million in the first quarter of 2014, a decrease of $7 million, or 28%.  The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rates, especially the Australian dollar, decreased segment operating profit by $5 million in the current year quarter.  The decline in sales volume discussed above decreased segment operating profit by $4 million.  Operating costs were $1 million higher in the first quarter of 2015, as a result of the impacts of cost inflation and lower production volumes exceeding footprint savings from prior year capacity reductions in the region.  Higher selling prices also increased segment operating profit in the first quarter of 2015 by $3 million.

34

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense for the first quarter of 2015 was $47 million compared with $54 million for the first quarter of 2014.  Interest expense decreased $7 million in the first quarter of 2015 principally due to lower debt levels and the weaker Euro exchange rate in relation to the U.S. dollar.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was 24.7% compared with 20.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2015 was higher than the first quarter of 2014 because 2014 includes a $6 million benefit related to reductions to several of the Company’s uncertain tax positions due to the outcome of tax examinations.

The Company expects that the full year effective tax rate for 2015 will range between 23% and 25% (excluding the tax on items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations).

Earnings from Continuing Operations Attributable to the Company

For the first quarter of 2015, the Company recorded earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company of $71 million, or $0.44 per share (diluted), compared to $102 million, or $0.62 per share (diluted), in the first quarter of 2014.

Items Excluded from Reportable Segment Totals

Retained Corporate Costs and Other

Retained corporate costs and other for the first quarter of 2015 was $21 million compared with $30 million for the first quarter of 2014.  Retained corporate costs and other declined for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in the prior year due to lower pension expense and corporate spending levels.

Discontinued Operations

On March 10, 2015, a tribunal constituted under the auspices of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) awarded a subsidiary of the Company more than $455 million in an international arbitration against Venezuela related to the 2010 expropriation of the Company’s majority interest in two plants in that country.  Subsequently, Venezuela has announced that it has started the process of filing for an annulment of this award.  The annulment process can take up to several years to complete.  The Company is unable at this stage to predict the amount, or timing of compensation it will ultimately receive under the award. Therefore, the Company has not recognized this award in its financial statements.

A separate arbitration is pending with ICSID to obtain compensation primarily for third-party minority shareholders’ lost interests in the two expropriated plants.

The loss from discontinued operations of $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 is related to ongoing costs for the 2010 Venezuela expropriation.  The loss from discontinued operations was less than $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and also related to ongoing costs for the Venezuela expropriation.

35

Capital Resources and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2015, the Company had cash and total debt of $257 million and $3.6 billion, respectively, compared to $201 million and $3.7 billion, respectively, as of March 31, 2014.  A significant portion of the cash was held in mature, liquid markets where the Company has operations, such as the U.S., Europe and Australia, and is readily available to fund global liquidity requirements. The amount of cash held in non-U.S. locations as of March 31, 2015 was $232 million.

Current and Long-Term Debt

On May 19, 2011, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers entered into the Secured Credit Agreement (the “Prior Agreement”).  At March 31, 2015, the Prior Agreement included a $900 million revolving credit facility, a $390 million term loan, a 76 million Canadian dollar term loan, and a €85 million term loan, each of which had a final maturity date of May 19, 2016.  At March 31, 2015, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers had unused credit of $558 million available under the Prior Agreement.  The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Prior Agreement at March 31, 2015 was 1.70%.

On April 22, 2015, the Company’s subsidiary borrowers entered into a new Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “New Agreement”), which amended and restated the Prior Agreement.  The New Agreement includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $600 million multicurrency revolving credit facility, a $600 million term loan, a €279 million term loan and a $300 million delayed draw term loan available until October 22, 2015, each of which has a final maturity date of April 22, 2020.  The proceeds from the New Agreement were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the Prior Agreement and will be available for other general corporate purposes, including the repayment of other existing indebtedness.

The New Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, engage in certain affiliate transactions, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain subordinated debt obligations.

The New Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Leverage Ratio, that requires the Company not to exceed a ratio of 4.0x calculated by dividing consolidated total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, by Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the New Agreement.  The maximum Leverage Ratio is subject to an increase of 0.5x for the four fiscal quarters following the consummation of certain qualifying acquisitions as defined in the New Agreement.  The Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum.

Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the New Agreement.  In such an event, the Company could not request borrowings under the revolving facility, and all amounts outstanding under the New Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable.  If an event of default occurs under the New Agreement and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the New Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to

36

these debt securities.  A default or event of default under the New Agreement, indentures or agreements governing other indebtedness could also lead to an acceleration of debt under other debt instruments that contain cross acceleration or cross-default provisions.

The Leverage Ratio also determines pricing under the New Agreement.  The interest rate on borrowings under the New Agreement is, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the New Agreement.  These rates include a margin linked to the Leverage Ratio.  The margins range from 1.25% to 1.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.25% to 0.75% for Base Rate loans.  In addition, a fee is payable on the revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum linked to the Leverage Ratio.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Prior Agreement.  In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow funds under the New Agreement will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions.

Borrowings under the New Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate, of certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, in the case of foreign borrowings, of certain foreign subsidiaries.  Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of certain intercompany debt and equity in most of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and, in the case of foregin borrowings, of stock of certain foreign subsidiaries.  All borrowings under the New Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company for the term of the New Agreement.

During December 2014, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $500 million that bear interest at 5.00% and are due January 15, 2022 (the “Senior Notes due 2022”).  The Company also issued senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 5.375% and are due January 15, 2025 (the “Senior Notes due 2025,” and together with the Senior Notes due 2022, the “New Senior Notes”).  The New Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.  The net proceeds from the New Senior Notes, after deducting debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $790 million and were used to purchase $611 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.00% exchangeable senior notes.  Approximately $18 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.00% exchangeable senior notes remain outstanding as of March 31, 2015.

The Company assesses its capital raising and refinancing needs on an ongoing basis and may enter into additional credit facilities and seek to issue equity and/or debt securities in the domestic and international capital markets if market conditions are favorable.  Also, depending on market conditions, the Company may elect to repurchase portions of its debt securities in the open market.

The Company has a €215 million European accounts receivable securitization program, which extends through September 2016, subject to annual renewal of backup credit lines. Information related to the Company’s accounts receivable securitization program is as follows:

	March 31,			December 31,			March 31,
	2015			2014			2014
Balance (included in short-term loans)	$	171		$	122		$	253
Weighted average interest rate	1.36		%	1.41		%	1.53		%

Cash Flows

Free cash flow was $(384) million for the first three months of 2015 compared to $(310) million for the first three months of 2014.  The Company defines free cash flow as cash provided by continuing operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment from continuing operations.  Free cash flow does not conform to U.S. GAAP and should not be construed as an alternative to the cash flow measures reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  The Company uses free cash flow for internal reporting, forecasting and budgeting and believes this information allows the board of directors, management, investors and analysts to better understand the Company’s financial performance.  Free cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 is calculated as follows:

	2015			2014
Cash utilized in continuing operating activities	$	(278	)	$	(202	)
Additions to property, plant and equipment	(106		)	(108		)
Free cash flow	$	(384	)	$	(310	)

Operating activities:  Cash utilized in continuing operating activities was $278 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared with $202 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  The increase in cash utilized in continuing operating activities was primarily due to an increase in working capital of $429 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to an increase in working capital of $352 million in the first quarter of 2014.  The increase in working capital was mainly due to a decrease in accounts payable in the first quarter of 2015.  The increase in cash utilized in continuing operating activities was also due to lower earnings in 2015.  Partially offsetting these items was lower cash paid for restructuring activities and other net items, which included less cash paid for deferred returnable packaging costs and deferred customer contracts in 2015.

Investing activities:  Cash utilized in investing activities was $157 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $94 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  Capital spending for property, plant and equipment was $106 million during the the first quarter of 2015 and $108 million during the first quarter of 2014.  Investing activities in 2015 also included $52 million paid for acquisitions, primarily related to the Company’s acquisition of a glass container plant in North America.  Other net sources from investing activities were $1 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to $14 million in the first quarter of 2014, which primarily related to the repayment of a loan from one of the Company’s noncontrolling partners in South America.

Financing activities:  Cash provided by financing activities was $207 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $121 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to a net increase of $308 million in borrowings in the first quarter of 2015 compared to a net increase of $136 million in the same period in 2014.  The change in borrowings between 2015 and 2014 was primarily due to the increase in repurchases of shares of the Company’s common stock in the first quarter of 2015 and the lower level of free cash flow generated in the first three months of 2015 compared to the same period in the prior year.  The Company repurchased shares of its common stock for $100 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to no repurchases in the first quarter of 2014.  The repurchases were completed using cash on hand and available borrowings and included an accelerated share repurchase program.  The Company anticipates repurchasing at least an additional $25 million in shares over the course of the year.  Additional details about the Company’s share repurchase activities are provided in Note 10 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.  No distributions were paid to noncontrolling interests in the first quarter of 2015 compared to $19 million paid in the first quarter of 2014 .

The Company anticipates that cash flows from its operations and from utilization of credit available under the New Agreement will be sufficient to fund its operating and seasonal working capital needs, debt service and other obligations on a short-term (twelve-months) and long-term basis.  Based on the Company’s expectations regarding future payments for lawsuits and claims and also based on the Company’s expected operating cash flow, the Company believes that the payment of any deferred amounts of previously settled or otherwise determined lawsuits and claims, and the resolution of presently pending and anticipated future lawsuits and claims associated with asbestos, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s liquidity on a short-term or long-term basis.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The Company’s analysis and discussion of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  The Company evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis.  Estimates and assumptions are based on historical and other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time the financial statements are issued.  The results of these estimates may form the basis of the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities and may not be readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results, under conditions and circumstances different from those assumed, may differ from estimates.

The impact of, and any associated risks related to, estimates and assumptions are discussed within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, if applicable, where estimates and assumptions affect the Company’s reported and expected financial results.

There have been no other material changes in critical accounting estimates at March 31, 2015 from those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Forward Looking Statements

This document contains “forward looking” statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933. Forward looking statements reflect the Company’s current expectations and projections about future events at the time, and thus involve uncertainty and risk. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “may,” “plan,” “estimate,” “intend,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and the negatives of these words and other similar expressions generally identify forward looking statements. It is possible the Company’s future financial performance may differ from expectations due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to the following: (1) foreign currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar, specifically the Euro, Brazilian real, Colombian peso and Australian dollar, (2) changes in capital availability or cost, including interest rate fluctuations and the ability of the Company to refinance debt at favorable terms, (3) the general political, economic and competitive conditions in markets and countries where the Company has operations, including uncertainties related to economic and social conditions, disruptions in capital markets, disruptions in the supply chain, competitive pricing pressures, inflation or deflation, and changes in tax rates and laws, (4) consumer preferences for alternative forms of packaging, (5) cost and availability of raw materials, labor, energy and transportation, (6) the Company’s ability to manage its cost structure, including its success in implementing restructuring plans and achieving cost savings, (7) consolidation among competitors and customers, (8) the ability of the Company to acquire businesses and expand plants, integrate operations of acquired businesses and achieve expected synergies, (9) unanticipated expenditures with respect to environmental, safety and health laws, (10) the Company’s ability to further develop its sales, marketing and product development capabilities, and (11) the timing and occurrence of events which are beyond the control of the Company, including any expropriation of the Company’s operations, floods and other natural disasters, events related to asbestos-related claims, and the other risk factors discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and any subsequently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. It is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors. Any forward looking statements in this document are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Forward looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from expectations. While the Company continually reviews trends and uncertainties affecting the Company’s results of operations and financial condition, the Company does not assume any obligation to update or supplement any particular forward looking statements contained in this document.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.

There have been no material changes in market risk at March 31, 2015 from those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.  Also, the Company has investments in certain unconsolidated entities.  As the Company does not control or manage these entities, its disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are necessarily substantially more limited than those maintained with respect to its consolidated subsidiaries.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2015.

As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, of any change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.  There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to material affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. Management concluded that the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2014.

(a)On February 4, 2015, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “ASR Counterparty”) to repurchase $100 million of its common stock. The Company advanced $100 million to the ASR Counterparty on February 5, 2015, and received 3,509,496 shares, which represented eighty five percent of the total shares as calculated using the closing price on February 4, 2015 of $24.22.  The remaining number of shares to be delivered will be based on the daily volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the term of the ASR. The ASR is expected to be settled in the second quarter of this year. Under the terms of the ASR program, the ASR Counterparty was permitted, in accordance with the applicable requirements of the federal securities laws, to separately trade in the Company’s shares.
