If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)
|
|

|

The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-SAR or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and |

PART III NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)
As disclosed by Ball Corporation (the Company) in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 6, 2016 (the Form 8-K), on June 30, 2016, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Rexam PLC (Rexam) (the Rexam Acquisition). Subsequently, also on June 30, 2016 and as disclosed in the Form 8-K, the Company completed its previously announced sale to Ardagh Group S.A. of certain Company and Rexam equity and assets (the Divestiture). The Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2016 (the Form 10-Q) will be the Companys first periodic filing since the completion of both the Rexam Acquisition and the Divestiture. Accordingly, in connection with the Rexam Acquisition and the Divestiture, the Company needs additional time to complete certain disclosures and analyses to be included in the Form 10-Q. The Company is therefore unable to file its Form 10-Q within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company intends to file its Form 10-Q within the grace period provided under Rule 12b-25.
