IN FAVOUR AND FOR THE BENEFIT OF:

Each Indemnitee (as defined below).

BACKGROUND

As part of the Reynolds group of companies (the “Reynolds Group”), each English Obligor (as defined below) is a guarantor and/or a security provider (as relevant) in respect of the Reynolds Group’s existing financing arrangements (the “Existing Financing Arrangements”), including, without limitation, by:

	(a)		providing a guarantee and/or security (as applicable) with respect to the senior secured credit agreement dated as of November 5, 2009, between, among others, RGHL, the borrowers listed therein and Credit Suisse AG, as amended by (i) Amendment No. 1, dated as of January 21, 2010, (ii) an amendment and assumption agreement dated as of May 4, 2010, (iii) an amendment and assumption agreement dated as of September 30, 2010 and (iv) each guarantor joinder entered into from time to time (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”);

	(b)		providing a guarantee and/or security (as applicable) with respect to the 7.75% senior secured notes due 2016 issued by members of the Reynolds Group in aggregate principal amounts of US$1,125,000,000 and €450,000,000 pursuant to an indenture dated November 5, 2009 (the “2009 Notes”); and

	(c)		providing a guarantee and security with respect to the 7.125% senior secured notes due 2019 issued by members of the Reynolds Group in aggregate principal amounts of US$1,500,000,000 pursuant to an indenture dated October 15, 2010 (the “2010 Secured Notes”),

	(the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the 2009 Notes and the 2010 Secured Notes being together, the “Existing Secured Indebtedness”);

	(d)		providing a guarantee with respect to certain notes issued by members of the Reynolds Group, including (i) 8% senior notes due 2016 issued in an aggregate principal amount of €480,000,000 pursuant to an

			indenture dated June 29, 2007, (ii) 9.5% senior subordinated notes due 2017 issued in an aggregate principal amount of €420,000,000 pursuant to an indenture dated June 29, 2007, (iii) 8.5% senior notes due 2018 issued in an aggregate principal amount of US$1,000,000,000 pursuant to an indenture dated May 4, 2010 and (iv) 9.0% senior notes due 2019 issued in an aggregate principal amount of US$1,500,000,000 pursuant to an indenture dated October 15, 2010 ((i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) are together, the “Existing Notes”); and

	(e)		being party to the intercreditor arrangements in respect of the guarantees, indebtedness and security described above (the “Intercreditor Arrangements”).

In connection with such incurrence of indebtedness, it is intended that the Existing Financing Arrangements be supplemented and/or amended. Each English Obligor (as defined below) may, among other things, be required to do some or all of the following:

	(a)		provide a guarantee in respect of the issue of new senior unsecured notes by indirect subsidiaries of RGHL (the “New Unsecured Notes”), and enter into a purchase agreement and registration rights agreement relating to the New Unsecured Notes;

	(b)		provide a guarantee and security in respect of the issue of new senior secured notes by indirect subsidiaries of RGHL (the “New Secured Notes”) which will be secured on a pari passu basis with the security granted by each English Obligor in respect of the Existing Secured Indebtedness, and enter into a purchase agreement and registration rights agreement relating to the New Secured Notes; it is intended that the aggregate amount of New Secured Notes and New Unsecured Notes issued will not exceed US$2,000,000,000;

	(c)		publish offering documents in respect of the New Secured Notes and the New Unsecured Notes, together with entering into agreements relating to both the underwriting of those notes by the initial note purchasers and the future registration of those notes (and consequent tender offer) with the US Securities Exchange Commission;

	(d)		in addition to (whether contemporaneously or otherwise), or instead of, the issue of the New Secured Notes and/or the New Unsecured Notes, enter into an amendment and/or restatement agreement relating to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities to (i) allow for the incurrence of additional indebtedness (the “Additional Bank Debt”) that will be incurred to repay some or all of the existing tranches of debt under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, or into which some or all of the existing tranches of debt under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities will be converted or rolled over, (ii) reflect any repayment of debt made from the proceeds of the Additional Bank Debt, the New Unsecured Notes and/or the New Secured Notes and/or (iii) any amendments that are agreed with the Lenders (as defined therein) to update certain of the commercial terms, including, without limitation, relating to pricing, maturity and commercial and financial covenants (the “Amendment Agreement”);

	(e)		provide certain affirmations, re-affirmations and/or confirmations that its guarantees currently in place in respect of the Existing Secured Indebtedness continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the Transactions (as defined below) and extend to the New Secured Notes;

	(f)		provide any amendment, restatement, affirmation, re-affirmation, supplement, extension, confirmation or release and retake of security, or grant of new or additional security (which may be second or third ranking) in respect of collateral under the applicable agreements, instruments or other documents creating security interests in respect of the Existing Secured Indebtedness (the “Security Documents”) in order to provide that such Security Documents (i) secure obligations with respect to the New Secured Notes on a pari passu basis with the Existing Secured Indebtedness to the extent possible and (ii) continue to secure obligations in respect of the Existing Secured Indebtedness; and/or

	(g)		enter into such amendments, supplements, joinders or other documents in connection with the Intercreditor Arrangements to the extent required as may be necessary to give effect to the proposed new structure,

together, the “Transactions”. The documents relating to the Transactions are collectively, the “Transaction Documents”.

RGHL 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 RGHL that this document be executed as a Deed Poll in favour and for the benefit of each Indemnitee.

Indemnification

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 that payment is actually made, or for which payment may be immediately claimed, to or on behalf of the relevant Indemnitee under an insurance policy, unless the Indemnitee assigns to RGHL any related payments claims under such insurance policy; or

	(c)		to the extent that payment has or will be made to the relevant Indemnitee by the Indemnitee Company or any affiliate of RGHL otherwise than pursuant to this Deed Poll.

Each Indemnitee shall give RGHL notice in writing (including by email or telefax) 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 RGHL a written request therefore, together with such invoices or other supporting information as may be reasonably requested by RGHL and reasonably available to the relevant Indemnitee. Subject to clause 4.2, RGHL shall make such indemnification payment within 10 business days of receipt of such invoices and supporting information.
