REGIONAL AND GLOBAL COMPETITORS Ardagh is a leading supplier of glass containers with significant penetration in the food, alcoholic beverages/distilled spirits, wine and pharmaceutical sectors. Within these sectors Ardagh has developed strong long-term relationships with its customer base. Owens-Illinois: Global manufacturer in the plastic & glass container segments, operating 83 plants in 22 countries along with 18 packaging facilities, 13 of which are in the US. Has European operations in 11 countries (France, Italy, Spain, Poland, the Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Finland Estonia) By its own reporting the company is the largest supplier of glass containers in Europe, controlling roughly 33% of the Northern European market and 18% of the total European market. Saint Gobain: Diversified multinational conglomerate with over € 4 B in glass and container sales during FY 2006. They are the #2 global glass and container manufacturer Western European home markets with balanced demand provide stable yet maturing growth prospects. Significant demand-side growth in the Eastern European markets, coupled with lower factor costs and increasing automation make expansion into these markets highly attractive. Quinn Glass: Small regional competitor with aggressive growth plans in the UK, Ireland beyond KEY MARKET STATISTICS INDUSTRY/SECTOR GLASS CONTAINER GROWTH TRENDS • The global packaging industry was worth $410 B in 2007 and growing annually at 5%. It is estimated to reach $470 B by 2010 • The European containers market grew 2. 2% in 2007 to reach $133. 6 B and is expected to increase 11. 7% by 2012 to $149. 3 B • Glass packaging is a mature industry due to continuing proliferation of plastic packaging, which has penetrated segments previously the sole domain of glass packaging • Low “perceived” differentiation of products is driving research and innovation in value added offerings (design & decoration) Source: The Packing Federation 2007 Annual Report STRATEGIC SUMMARY

NEGATIVE MARKET DRIVERS • Significant barriers to entry driven by high levels of required investment and manufacturing know-how • Market exhibits oligopolistic structure with the top three competitors (Owens-Illinois, Saint Gobain & Ardagh) controlling roughly 95% of the glass container market. • Glass containers prices have risen over 30% in last year • Increasing R&D innovation is driving increased efficiency and value-added offerings. Since 1980 the industry has halved the amount of energy required to melt 1 -ton of glass • Mandatory recycling regulations in the European market are generating fairly stable supply of cullet, which uses less energy to process and prolongs furnace life. • Recent scientific studies show that 77. 8% of consumers prefer consuming beverages from glass containers over plastic • Increasing customer consolidation leading to high levels of concentrated revenues. Top 10 customers accounted for over 37% of revenues in 2007, with higher concentrations in some markets • In April of 2008 Werner Langen of the EU Parliament renewed calls for an investigation into price-fixing by the three main glass manufacturers • European regulators have been unable to liberalize local energy markets in order to provide secure and affordable sources of power, thus potentially driving up production costs • Shifting customer demands to other materials could significantly impact operating performance • Irrational competition could lead to overcapacity in certain markets (UK), which would significantly erode margins EUROPEAN CONTAINER & PACKAGING MARKET VALUE EUROPEAN CONTAINER & PACKAGING MARKET VOLUME (TONNES) Source: Data.

EXAMPLE EXIT VALUATION & RETURNS Altajir Glass Dubai Intl. Capital Quinn Glass STRATEGIC ACQUISITION SCENARIOS SECONDARY BUY-OUT SCENARIOS Given anti-competition concerns O-I and Saint Gobain are not possible acquirers in the European market. Instead we conceive an auction scenario possible involving these two companies or similar ones: Given the current and future state of the public equity markets we do not expect that a public offering of Ardagh Glass would provide the company with the greatest amount of value. Al Tarjir Altajir Glass is the Middle East’s premier manufacturer of glass bottles. Their aggressive global expansion strategy and vertical integration are driving them to look beyond organic strategies. They have previously tried to enter the European market with mixed results. In four years time Ardagh would be well positioned to offer them a sizable position in the European market along with significant R&D expertise. Ultimately a strategic buy-out would generate the most synergies and greatest return on investment. However if a strategic acquirer fails to materialize then the secondary buy-out markets are an attractive alternative. Quinn Glass is a strong regional competitor in the UK and Ireland however it has not yet established significant mainland European operations. On May 18 th, 2008 Dubai International Capital partnered with Citadel Capital to acquire a 49% stake in Egypt Glass. The growing MENA provides attractive market upside for DIC. In four years time a combined Ardagh/Egypt Glass would provide compelling international growth opportunities. EXIT SCENARIOS STRATEGIC EXIT SCENARIOS

Not all companies are suitable targets for leveraged buy-outs, however Ardagh Glass is an interesting and attractive acquisition target. The company’s past use and management of high debt levels, stems from the relatively recession proof, stable cash flows generated from operations. Industry consolidation and macroeconomic drivers make continued growth and profitability highly likely. The favorable pricing environment should continue to remain strong as further industry consolidation materializes. The current management team has significant depth of experience in the glass packaging sector and have clearly been able to execute on an aggressive expansion and acquisition strategy all within a relatively short period of time. At our proposed Enterprise Valuation of € 1. 4 B we believe that within the realm of possible exit scenarios an IRR of 32. 6% with a 3. 1 x money multiple is achievable given moderate multiple expansion and conservative growth numbers.
