Rank Group Limited, a company registered in New Zealand whose registered office is at c/o Bell Gully (GJM), Level 22, Vero Centre, 48 Shortland Street, Auckland, New Zealand (“Rank”);

IN FAVOUR AND FOR THE BENEFIT OF:

Each Indemnitee (as defined below).

BACKGROUND

A.		SIG Combibloc Group AG (“SIG”) was acquired by Beverage Packaging Holdings (Luxembourg) III S.á r.l. (“BPIII”) in mid 2007, using acquisition debt made available under a combination of senior secured bank loans under a senior facilities agreement (the “Senior Facilities Agreement”), and an issue of senior notes and senior subordinated notes as further described below.

B.		The Closure Systems International business (the “CSI Group”) and the Reynolds Consumer Products business (the “RCP Group”) were acquired as part of the Reynolds group of companies in February 2008 using acquisition debt made available under a senior secured facilities agreement (the “Reynolds Facility”).

C.		BPIII, the sole shareholder of SIG, intends to directly and indirectly acquire the CSI Group and the RCP Group (the “Acquisition”).

D.		In connection with the Acquisition, the existing financing arrangements put in place for the acquisition of SIG and the CSI Group and RCP Group will need to be amended or replaced. Each United Kingdom Guarantor (as defined below) will be required to:

	(a)		enter into release documentation in relation to the Reynolds Facility and the guarantee and security provided by each United Kingdom Guarantor in respect of the Reynolds Facility;

	(b)		guarantee the issue of new senior lien notes in an aggregate principal amount of approximately US$1.842 billion (the “New Notes”) and new senior bank debt in the amount of the equivalent of approximately US$1.16 billion (“New Senior Facility”) and provide senior priority security in respect of the New Notes and the New Senior Facility over substantially all of its assets;

	(c)		provide guarantees in respect of €480,000,000 senior notes due 2016 and €420,000,000 senior subordinated notes due 2017, each issued by Beverage Packaging Holdings (Luxembourg) II S.A. (“Existing Notes”). These guarantees will be unsecured; and

(d)

enter into an intercreditor agreement in respect of the New Senior Facility and the New Notes, and an intercreditor agreement in respect of the New Notes, New Senior Facility and the Existing Notes,

		(collectively, the “Transactions”).

E.		Rank has agreed to provide an indemnity to the Indemnitees as defined below in respect of the Transactions as further described below.

It is the intention of Rank that this document be executed as a deed poll (this “Deed Poll”) in favour and for the benefit of each Indemnitee.

THIS DEED POLL WITNESSES as follows:

1.		Definitions

		“Indemnitee” means each person listed in Part B of the Schedule to this Deed Poll; and

		“United Kingdom Guarantor” means each company listed in Part A of the Schedule to this Deed Poll.

2.		Indemnification

		Rank shall indemnify each Indemnitee against all legal expenses, losses, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges in connection therewith) incurred by an Indemnitee or on an Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with any proceeding resulting from or relating to decisions the Indemnitee made or any actions the Indemnitee took on behalf of a United Kingdom Guarantor in his or her capacity as a director of that company on written instruction from a direct or indirect shareholder of the relevant United Kingdom Guarantor in connection with any transactions or the approval or execution of any resolutions or documents in relation to the Transactions.

3.		Limitations on Indemnification

		Notwithstanding any other provision of this Deed Poll, an Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Deed Poll:

	(a)		to the extent that such indemnification is not permitted by applicable laws; or

	(b)		to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are the result of the gross negligence, bad faith or wilful misconduct of the Indemnitee; or

	(c)		to the extent that payment is actually made, or for which payment is available, to or on behalf of the relevant Indemnitee under an insurance policy, except in respect of any amount in excess of the limits of liability of such policy or any applicable deductible for such policy; or

	(d)		to the extent that payment has or will be made to the relevant Indemnitee by the United Kingdom Guarantor or any affiliate of Rank otherwise than pursuant to this Deed Poll; or

	(e)		in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by an Indemnitee, unless:

	(i)		such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law,

	(ii)		the proceeding was authorised by the shareholder(s) (or other decision making organ) of the relevant United Kingdom Guarantor; or

	(iii)		such indemnification is provided by the United Kingdom Guarantor, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the United Kingdom Guarantor under applicable law.

4. Indemnification Procedure

	(a)		Each Indemnitee shall give Rank notice in writing as soon as practicable of any proceeding in relation to that Indemnitee for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Deed Poll. To obtain indemnification payments or advances under this Deed Poll, an Indemnitee shall submit to Rank a written request therefore, together with such invoices or other supporting information as may be reasonably requested by Rank and reasonably available to the relevant Indemnitee. Rank shall make such indemnification payment within 30 business days of receipt of such invoices and supporting information.

	(b)		There shall be no presumption in favour of indemnification. If there is a dispute between Rank and an Indemnitee as to whether that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, then independent legal counsel shall be selected by the board of directors of Rank to make such determination. The selected independent legal counsel shall make such determination within 30 business days of being selected and the decision of such independent legal counsel shall be binding upon all Rank and the relevant Indemnitee.

5.		Severability

		If any provision or provisions of this Deed Poll shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Deed Poll shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

6.		Governing law
