Published on May 15, 2002
EXHIBIT 20.1 Subsidiary Guarantees of Debt The company's Senior Notes, Senior Subordinated Notes and Senior Credit Facility agreements are guaranteed on a full, unconditional and joint and several basis by certain of the company's wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. The following is condensed, consolidating financial information for the company, segregating the guarantor subsidiaries and non-guarantor subsidiaries, as of March 31, 2002, and December 31, 2001 (in millions of dollars). The presentation of certain prior-year amounts has been changed in order to conform to the current-year presentation. Separate financial statements for the guarantor subsidiaries and the non- guarantor subsidiaries are not presented because management has determined that such financial statements would not be material to investors.CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- March 31, 2002 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ball Guarantor Non-Guarantor Eliminating Consolidated Corporation Subsidiaries Subsidiaries Adjustments Total ------------- -------------- ---------------- -------------- -------------- ASSETS Current assets Cash and temporary investments $ 2.3 $ 0.6 $ 19.0 $ -
