| Trade Date: | August 7, 2025 |
| Settlement Date: |
August 14, 2025 (T+5)
Ball expects that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment therefor on or about the fifth business day following the date of confirmation of orders with respect to the Notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes prior to the delivery of the Notes will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle T+5, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes prior to their date of delivery should consult their own advisors. |
| Use of Proceeds: | Ball intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include the refinancing or repayment of debt. Prior to the application of such proceeds, Ball intends to repay outstanding borrowings under its U.S. dollar and multi-currency revolving credit facilities, without a reduction in commitment, using a portion of the net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand. The exact allocation of such proceeds and the timing thereof is at the discretion of Ball’s management. |
