(the “Company”), through its subsidiaries, is the successor to a business established in 1903. The Company is the largest manufacturer of glass containers in the world with 80 glass manufacturing plants in 23 countries. It competes in the glass container segment of the rigid packaging market and is the leading glass container manufacturer in most of the countries where it has manufacturing facilities. Company Strategy The Company’s strategy is to be the premier rigid packaging producer most admired for its people, performance, customer satisfaction, innovation and shareholder value creation. To accomplish this strategy, the Company is focused on the following objectives: • Establish stability and drive improved performance by acting in line with market dynamics and market trends while unlocking the value in the Company’s operations and commercial activities; • Develop integrated solutions that deliver higher performance and grow our business by leveraging the capabilities of the manufacturing, commercial, and supply chain disciplines to reduce costs and inventory while providing solutions that help the Company’s customers build, develop and expand their markets; • Create breakthroughs that include truly innovative products for our customers, as well as step change improvements to our cost structure through focused research and development; • Integrate the Vitro acquisition to capture the value generated in this business while preserving the high operating standards; and • Operate as one enterprise, aligning our organization, processes and talent by creating the right structure, processes and capabilities to drive for performance and meet investor expectations. Reportable Segments The Company has four reportable segments based on its geographic locations: Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific. In connection with the Company’s acquisition (the “Vitro Acquisition”) of the food and beverage glass container business of Vitro S.A.B. de C.V. and its subsidiaries as conducted in the United States, Mexico and Bolivia (the “Vitro Business”) on September 1, 2015, the Company has renamed the former South America segment to the Latin America segment. Information as to sales, earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excluding amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations (“segment operating profit”), and total assets by reportable segment is included in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Products and Services The Company produces glass containers for alcoholic beverages, including beer, flavored malt beverages, spirits and wine. The Company also produces glass packaging for a variety of food items, soft drinks, teas, juices and pharmaceuticals. The Company manufactures glass containers in a wide range of sizes, shapes and colors and is active in new product development and glass container innovation. Customers In most of the countries where the Company competes, it has the leading position in the glass container segment of the rigid packaging market based on sales revenue. The Company’s largest customers consist mainly 1 of the leading global food and beverage manufacturers, including (in alphabetical order) Anheuser-Busch InBev, Brown Forman, Carlsberg, Diageo, Heineken, Kirin, MillerCoors, Nestle, PepsiCo, Pernod Ricard, SABMiller, and Saxco International. No customer represents more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated net sales. The Company sells most of its glass container products directly to customers under annual or multi-year supply agreements. Multi-year contracts typically provide for price adjustments based on cost changes. The Company also sells some of its products through distributors. Many customers provide the Company with regular estimates of their product needs, which enables the Company to schedule glass container production to maintain reasonable levels of inventory. Glass container manufacturing facilities are generally located in close proximity to customers. Markets and Competitive Conditions The Company’s principal markets for glass container products are in Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific. Europe. The Company has a leading share of the glass container segment of the rigid packaging market in the European countries in which it operates, with 35 glass container manufacturing plants located in the Czech Republic, Estonia, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain and the United Kingdom. These plants primarily produce glass containers for the beer, wine, champagne, spirits and food markets in these countries. The Company also has interests in two joint ventures that manufacture glass containers in Italy. Throughout Europe, the Company competes directly with a variety of glass container manufacturers including Verallia, Ardagh Group, Vetropack and Vidrala. North America. The Company has 19 glass container manufacturing plants and one distribution facility in the U.S. and Canada, and also has an interest in a joint venture that manufactures glass containers in the U.S. The Company has the leading share of the glass container segment of the U.S. rigid packaging market, based on sales revenue by domestic producers. The principal glass container competitors in the U.S. are the Ardagh Group and Anchor Glass Container. Imports from China, Mexico, Taiwan and other countries also compete in U.S. glass container segments. Additionally, there are several major consumer packaged goods companies that self-manufacture glass containers. Latin America. The Company has 18 glass manufacturing plants in Latin America, located in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, and Peru. In 2015, the Company’s acquisition of the Vitro Business included six additional plants. In Latin America, the Company maintains a diversified portfolio serving several markets, including beer, non-alcoholic beverages, spirits, flavored malt beverages, wine, food and pharmaceuticals. The region also has a large infrastructure for returnable/refillable glass containers. The Company competes directly with Verallia in Brazil and Argentina, and does not believe that it competes with any other large, multinational glass container manufacturers in the rest of the region. Asia Pacific. The Company has 8 glass container manufacturing plants in the Asia Pacific region, located in Australia, China, Indonesia and New Zealand. It also has interests in joint venture operations in China, Malaysia and Vietnam. In Asia Pacific, the Company primarily produces glass containers for the beer, wine, food and non-alcoholic beverage markets. The Company competes directly with Orora Limited in Australia, and does not believe that it competes with any other large, multinational glass container manufacturers in the rest of the region. In China, the glass container segments of the packaging market are regional and highly fragmented with a large number of local competitors. In addition to competing with other large and well-established manufacturers in the glass container segment, the Company competes in all regions with manufacturers of other forms of rigid packaging, principally aluminum cans and plastic containers. Competition is based on quality, price, service, innovation and the marketing attributes of the container. The principal competitors producing metal containers include Ball Corporation, Crown Holdings, Inc., Rexam plc, and Silgan Holdings Inc. The principal competitors producing plastic containers include Amcor, Consolidated Container Holdings, LLC, Reynolds Group Holdings Limited, Plastipak Packaging, Inc. and Silgan Holdings Inc. The Company also competes with manufacturers of non-rigid packaging alternatives, including flexible pouches, aseptic cartons and bag-in-box containers. 2 The Company seeks to provide products and services to customers ranging from large multinationals to small local breweries and wineries in a way that creates a competitive advantage for the Company. The Company believes that it is often the glass container partner of choice because of its innovation and branding capabilities, its global footprint and its expertise in manufacturing know-how and process technology. Seasonality Sales of many glass container products such as beer, beverages and food are seasonal. Shipments in the U.S. and Europe are typically greater in the second and third quarters of the year, while shipments in the Asia Pacific region are typically greater in the first and fourth quarters of the year, and shipments in Latin America are typically greater in the third and fourth quarters of the year. Manufacturing The Company has 80 glass manufacturing plants. It constantly seeks to improve the productivity of these operations through the systematic upgrading of production capabilities, sharing of best practices among plants and effective training of employees. The Company also provides engineering support for its glass manufacturing operations through facilities located in the U.S., Australia, France, Poland, Colombia and Peru. Suppliers and Raw Materials The primary raw materials used in the Company’s glass container operations are sand, soda ash, limestone and recycled glass. Each of these materials, as well as the other raw materials used to manufacture glass containers, has historically been available in adequate supply from multiple sources. One of the sources is a soda ash mining operation in Wyoming in which the Company has a 25% interest. Energy The Company’s glass container operations require a continuous supply of significant amounts of energy, principally natural gas, fuel oil and electrical power. Adequate supplies of energy are generally available at all of the Company’s manufacturing locations. Energy costs typically account for 10-25% of the Company’s total manufacturing costs, depending on the cost of energy, the type of energy available, the factory location and the particular energy requirements. The percentage of total cost related to energy can vary significantly because of volatility in market prices, particularly for natural gas and fuel oil in volatile markets such as North America and Europe. In North America, approximately 97% of the sales volume is represented by customer contracts that contain provisions that pass the commodity price of natural gas to the customer, effectively reducing the North America segment’s exposure to changing natural gas market prices. Also, in order to limit the effects of fluctuations in market prices for natural gas, the Company uses commodity forward contracts related to its forecasted requirements in North America. The objective of these forward contracts is to reduce potential volatility in cash flows and expense due to changing market prices. The Company continually evaluates the energy markets with respect to its forecasted energy requirements to optimize its use of commodity forward contracts. In Europe and Asia Pacific, the Company enters into fixed price contracts for a significant amount of its energy requirements. These contracts typically have terms of one to three years. In Latin America, the Company primarily enters into fixed price contracts for its energy requirements in most of the countries in which it operates and the remaining energy requirements are subject to changing natural gas market prices. These fixed price contracts typically have terms of one to three years, and generally include annual price adjustments for inflation and for certain contracts price adjustments for foreign currency variation. Technical Assistance License Agreements The Company has agreements to license its proprietary glass container technology and to provide technical assistance to a limited number of companies around the world. These agreements cover areas related to 3 manufacturing and engineering assistance. The worldwide licensee network provides a stream of revenue to help support the Company’s development activities. In the years 2015, 2014 and 2013, the Company earned $12 million, $13 million and $16 million, respectively, in royalties and net technical assistance revenue. Research, Development and Engineering Research, development and engineering constitute important parts of the Company’s technical activities. Expenditures for these activities were $64 million, $63 million and $62 million for 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company primarily focuses on advancements in the areas of product innovation, manufacturing process control, melting technology, automatic inspection, light-weighting and further automation of manufacturing activities. The Company’s research and development activities are conducted at its corporate facilities in Perrysburg, Ohio. During 2013, the Company completed the construction of a new research and development facility at this location. This new facility has enabled the Company to expand its research and development capabilities. The Company holds a large number of patents related to a wide variety of products and processes and has a substantial number of patent applications pending. While the aggregate of the Company’s patents are of material importance to its businesses, the Company does not consider that any patent or group of patents relating to a particular product or process is of material importance when judged from the standpoint of any individual segment or its businesses as a whole. Sustainability and the Environment The Company is committed to reducing the impact its products and operations have on the environment. As part of this commitment, the Company has set targets for increasing the use of recycled glass in its manufacturing process, while reducing energy consumption and carbon dioxide equivalent (“CO2”) emissions. Specific actions taken by the Company include working with governments and other organizations to establish and financially support recycling initiatives, partnering with other entities throughout the supply chain to improve the effectiveness of recycling efforts, reducing the weight of glass packaging and investing in research and development to reduce energy consumption in its manufacturing process. The Company invests in technology and training to improve safety, reduce energy use, decrease emissions and increase the amount of cullet, or recycled glass, used in the production process. The Company’s worldwide operations, in addition to other companies within the industry, are subject to extensive laws, ordinances, regulations and other legal requirements relating to environmental protection, including legal requirements governing investigation and clean-up of contaminated properties as well as water discharges, air emissions, waste management and workplace health and safety. The Company strives to abide by and uphold such laws and regulations. Glass Recycling and Bottle Deposits The Company is an important contributor to recycling efforts worldwide and is among the largest users of recycled glass containers. If sufficient high-quality recycled glass were available on a consistent basis, the Company has the technology to make glass containers containing a high proportion of recycled glass. Using recycled glass in the manufacturing process reduces energy costs and impacts the operating life and efficiency of the glass melting furnaces. In the U.S., Canada, Europe and elsewhere, government authorities have adopted or are considering legal requirements that would mandate certain recycling rates, the use of recycled materials, or limitations on or preferences for certain types of packaging. The Company believes that governments worldwide will continue to develop and enact legal requirements around guiding customer and end-consumer packaging choices. Sales of beverage containers are affected by governmental regulation of packaging, including deposit laws and extended producer responsibility regulations. As of December 31, 2015, there were a number of U.S. states, Canadian provinces and territories, European countries and Australian states with some form of incentive for consumer returns of glass bottles in their law. The structure and enforcement of such laws and regulations can 4 impact the sales of beverage containers in a given jurisdiction. Such laws and regulations also impact the availability of post-consumer recycled glass for the Company to use in container production. A number of states and provinces have recently considered or are now considering laws and regulations to encourage curbside, deposit and on-premise glass recycling. Although there is no clear trend in the direction of these state and provincial laws and proposals, the Company believes that states and provinces, as well as municipalities within those jurisdictions, will continue to adopt recycling laws, which will impact supplies of recycled glass. As a large user of recycled glass for making new glass containers, the Company has an interest in laws and regulations impacting supplies of such material in its markets. Air Emissions In Europe, the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (“EUETS”) is in effect to facilitate emissions reduction. The Company’s manufacturing facilities which operate in EU countries must restrict the volume of their CO2 emissions to the level of their individually allocated emissions allowances as set by country regulators. If the actual level of emissions for any facility exceeds its allocated allowance, additional allowances can be bought to cover deficits; conversely, if the actual level of emissions for any facility is less than its allocation, the excess allowances can be sold. The EUETS has not had a material effect on the Company’s results to date. However, should the regulators significantly restrict the number of emissions allowances available, it could have a material effect in the future. In North America, the U.S. and Canada are engaged in significant legislative and regulatory activity relating to CO2 emissions, at the federal, state and provincial levels of government. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) regulates emissions of hazardous air pollutants under the Clean Air Act, which grants the EPA authority to establish limits for certain air pollutants and to require compliance, levy penalties and bring civil judicial action against violators. The structure and scope of the EPA’s CO2 regulations are currently the subject of litigation and are expected to be the subject of federal legislative activity. The EPA regulations, if preserved as proposed, could have a significant long-term impact on the Company’s U.S. operations. The EPA also implemented the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule, which set stringent emissions limits in many states starting in 2012. The state of California in the U.S. and the province of Quebec in Canada adopted cap-and-trade legislation aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions starting in 2013. In Asia Pacific, the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 commenced on July 1, 2008 in Australia. This act established a mandatory reporting system for corporate greenhouse gas emissions and energy production and consumption. In 2011, the Australian government adopted a carbon pricing mechanism that took effect in 2012, which required certain manufacturers to pay a tax based on their carbon-equivalent emissions. In July 2014 the carbon pricing mechanism was repealed by the Australian government and replaced by the Emissions Reduction Fund (“ERF”) which comprises an element to credit emissions reductions, a fund to purchase emissions reductions and a safeguard mechanism. The ERF purchases the lowest cost abatement (in the form of Australian carbon credit units) from a wide range of sources, providing an incentive to businesses, households and landowners to proactively reduce their emissions, while the safeguard mechanism (which is effective from July 1, 2016) ensures that emissions reductions paid for through the crediting and purchasing elements of the ERF are not displaced by significant increases in emissions above business-as-usual levels elsewhere in the economy. An emissions trading scheme has also been in effect in New Zealand since 2008. In Latin America, the Brazilian government passed a law in 2009 requiring companies to reduce the level of greenhouse gas emissions by the year 2025. In the other Latin American countries, national and local governments are considering proposals that would impose regulations to reduce CO2 emissions. The Company is unable to predict what environmental legal requirements may be adopted in the future. However, the Company continually monitors its operations in relation to environmental impacts and invests in environmentally friendly and emissions-reducing projects. As such, the Company has made significant expenditures for environmental improvements at certain of its facilities over the last several years; however, these expenditures did not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows. The Company is unable to predict the impact of future environmental legal requirements on its results of operations or cash flows. 5 Employees The Company’s worldwide operations employed approximately 27,000 persons as of December 31, 2015. Approximately 75% of North American employees are hourly workers covered by collective bargaining agreements. The principal collective bargaining agreement, which at December 31, 2015, covered approximately 76% of the Company’s union-affiliated employees in North America, will expire on March 31, 2016. Approximately 85% of employees in Latin America are covered by collective bargaining agreements. The majority of the hourly workers in Australia and New Zealand are also covered by collective bargaining agreements. The collective bargaining agreements in Latin America, Australia and New Zealand have varying terms and expiration dates. In Europe, a large number of the Company’s employees are employed in countries in which employment laws provide greater bargaining or other rights to employees than the laws of the U.S. Such employment rights require the Company to work collaboratively with the legal representatives of the employees to effect any changes to labor arrangements. The Company considers its employee relations to be good and does not anticipate any material work stoppages in the near term. Available Information The Company’s website is www.o-i.com.

RISK FACTORS Asbestos-Related Liability—The Company has made, and will continue to make, substantial payments to resolve claims of persons alleging exposure to asbestos-containing products and may need to record additional charges in the future for estimated asbestos-related costs. These substantial payments have affected and may continue to affect the Company’s cost of borrowing and the ability to pursue acquisitions. The following discussion should be read together with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K/A. All of the financial information presented in this risk factor has been revised to reflect the restatement more fully described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company is a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging bodily injury and death as a result of exposure to asbestos. From 1948 to 1958, one of the Company’s former business units commercially produced and sold approximately $40 million of a high-temperature, calcium-silicate based pipe and block insulation material containing asbestos. The Company exited the insulation business in April 1958. The typical asbestos personal injury lawsuit alleges various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability and seeks compensatory, and in some cases, punitive damages, in various amounts (herein referred to as “asbestos claims”). Beginning with the initial liability of $975 million established in 1993, the Company has accrued a total of approximately $4.9 billion through 2015, before insurance recoveries, for its asbestos-related liability. The Company’s ability to estimate its liability has been significantly affected by, among other factors, the volatility of asbestos-related litigation in the United States, the significant number of co-defendants that have filed for bankruptcy, the inherent uncertainty of future disease incidence and claiming patterns against the Company, the significant expansion of the defendants that are now sued in this litigation, and the continuing changes in the extent to which these defendants participate in the resolution of cases in which the Company is also a defendant. As described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company recently revised its method for estimating its asbestos-related liabilities in connection with finalizing and reporting its restated results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 and concluded that an accrual in the amount of $817 million and $939 million, respectively was required. The Company continues to believe that its ultimate asbestos- related liability cannot be estimated with certainty. As part of its future annual comprehensive legal reviews, the Company will estimate its total asbestos-related liability and such reviews may result in significant adjustments to the liability accrued at the time of the review. The significant assumptions underlying the material components of the Company’s accrual are: a) settlements will continue to be limited almost exclusively to claimants who were exposed to the Company’s asbestos-containing insulation prior to its exit from that business in 1958; b) claims will continue to be resolved primarily under the Company’s administrative claims agreements or on terms comparable to those set forth in those agreements; c) the incidence of serious asbestos-related disease cases and claiming patterns against the Company for such cases do not change materially; d) the Company is substantially able to defend itself successfully at trial and on appeal; e) the number and timing of additional co-defendant bankruptcies do not change significantly the assets available to participate in the resolution of cases in which the Company is a defendant; and f) co-defendants with substantial resources and assets continue to participate significantly in the resolution of future asbestos lawsuits and claims. The ultimate amount of distributions that may be required to fund the Company’s asbestos-related payments cannot be estimated with certainty. Asbestos-related payments continue to be substantial and the continued use of significant amounts of cash for asbestos-related costs has affected and may continue to affect the Company’s cost 8 of borrowing, its ability to pursue global or domestic acquisitions, its ability to reinvest in its operations, and its ability to pay dividends. Substantial Leverage—The Company’s indebtedness could adversely affect the Company’s financial health. The Company has a significant amount of debt. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $5.6 billion of total debt outstanding, an increase from $3.4 billion at December 31, 2014, due to additional debt incurred as a result of the Vitro Acquisition. The Company’s indebtedness could result in the following consequences: • Increased vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; • Increased vulnerability to interest rate increases for the portion of the debt under the secured credit agreement; • Require the Company to dedicate a substantial portion of cash flow from operations to payments on indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, share repurchases, development efforts and other general corporate purposes; • Limit flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in the Company’s business and the rigid packaging market; • Place the Company at a competitive disadvantage relative to its competitors that have less debt; and • Limit, along with the financial and other restrictive covenants in the documents governing indebtedness, among other things, the Company’s ability to borrow additional funds Ability to Service Debt—To service its indebtedness, the Company will require a significant amount of cash. The Company’s ability to generate cash and refinance certain indebtedness depends on many factors beyond its control. The Company’s ability to make payments on and to refinance its indebtedness and to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, development efforts and other general corporate purposes depends on its ability to generate cash in the future. The Company has no assurance that it will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, or that future borrowings will be available under the secured credit agreement, in an amount sufficient to enable the Company to pay its indebtedness, or to fund other liquidity needs. If short term interest rates increase, the Company’s debt service cost will increase because some of its debt is subject to short term variable interest rates. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s debt subject to variable interest rates represented approximately 46% of total debt. The Company may need to refinance all or a portion of its indebtedness on or before maturity. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow and is unable to refinance or extend outstanding borrowings on commercially reasonable terms or at all, it may have to take one or more of the following actions: • Reduce or delay capital expenditures planned for replacements, improvements and expansions; • Sell assets; • Restructure debt; and/or • Obtain additional debt or equity financing. The Company can provide no assurance that it could affect or implement any of these alternatives on satisfactory terms, if at all. 9 Debt Restrictions—The Company may not be able to finance future needs or adapt its business plans to changes because of restrictions placed on it by the secured credit agreement and the indentures and instruments governing other indebtedness. The secured credit agreement, the indentures governing the senior debentures and notes, and certain of the agreements governing other indebtedness contain affirmative and negative covenants that limit the ability of the Company to take certain actions. For example, these indentures restrict, among other things, the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to borrow money, pay dividends on, or redeem or repurchase its stock, make investments, create liens, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies. These restrictions could adversely affect the Company’s ability to operate its businesses and may limit its ability to take advantage of potential business opportunities as they arise. Failure to comply with these or other covenants and restrictions contained in the secured credit agreement, the indentures or agreements governing other indebtedness could result in a default under those agreements, and the debt under those agreements, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable. If a default occurs under the secured credit agreement, the Company could no longer request borrowings under the secured credit agreement, and the lenders could cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under such secured credit agreement to become due and payable, which would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities. A default under the secured credit agreement, indentures or agreements governing other indebtedness could also lead to an acceleration of debt under other debt instruments that contain cross acceleration or cross-default provisions. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates—The Company is subject to the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which could adversely impact the Company’s financial results. The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. A significant portion of the Company’s net sales, costs, assets and liabilities are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the Euro, Brazilian real, Colombian peso, Mexican peso and Australian dollar. In its consolidated financial statements, the Company remeasures transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the reporting entity (e.g. soda ash purchases) and translates local currency financial results into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rates prevailing during the reporting period. During times of a strengthening U.S. dollar, the reported revenues and earnings of the Company’s international operations will be reduced because the local currencies will translate into fewer U.S. dollars. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. International Operations—The Company is subject to risks associated with operating in foreign countries. The Company operates manufacturing and other facilities throughout the world. Net sales from non-U.S. operations totaled approximately $4.2 billion, representing approximately 69% of the Company’s net sales for the year ended December 31, 2015. As a result of its non-U.S. operations, the Company is subject to risks associated with operating in foreign countries, including: • Political, social and economic instability; • War, civil disturbance or acts of terrorism; • Taking of property by nationalization or expropriation without fair compensation; • Changes in governmental policies and regulations; • Devaluations and fluctuations in currency exchange rates; • Imposition of limitations on conversions of foreign currencies into dollars or remittance of dividends and other payments by foreign subsidiaries; • Imposition or increase of withholding and other taxes on remittances and other payments by foreign subsidiaries; 10 • Hyperinflation in certain foreign countries; • Impositions or increase of investment and other restrictions or requirements by foreign governments; • Loss or non-renewal of treaties or other agreements with foreign tax authorities; • Changes in tax laws, or the interpretation thereof, affecting foreign tax credits or tax deductions relating to our non-U.S. earnings or operations; and • Complying with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits companies and their intermediaries from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purposes of obtaining or retaining business or gaining an unfair business advantage and requires companies to maintain accurate books and records and internal controls. The risks associated with operating in foreign countries may have a material adverse effect on operations. Competition—The Company faces intense competition from other glass container producers, as well as from makers of alternative forms of packaging. Competitive pressures could adversely affect the Company’s financial health. The Company is subject to significant competition from other glass container producers, as well as from makers of alternative forms of packaging, such as aluminum cans and plastic containers. The Company also competes with manufacturers of non-rigid packaging alternatives, including flexible pouches and aseptic cartons, in serving the packaging needs of certain end-use markets, including juice customers. The Company competes with each rigid packaging competitor on the basis of price, quality, service and the marketing and functional attributes of the container. Advantages or disadvantages in any of these competitive factors may be sufficient to cause the customer to consider changing suppliers and/or using an alternative form of packaging. The adverse effects of consumer purchasing decisions may be more significant in periods of economic downturn and may lead to longer term reductions in consumer spending on glass packaged products. Pressures from competitors and producers of alternative forms of packaging have resulted in excess capacity in certain countries in the past and have led to capacity adjustments and significant pricing pressures in the rigid packaging market. Lower Demand Levels—Changes in consumer preferences may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial results. Changes in consumer preferences for the food and beverages they consume can reduce demand for the Company’s products. Because many of the Company’s products are used to package consumer goods, the Company’s sales and profitability could be negatively impacted by changes in consumer preferences for those products. Examples of changes in consumer preferences include, but are not limited to, lower sales of major domestic beer brands and shifts from beer to wine or spirits that results in the use of fewer glass containers. In periods of lower demand, the Company’s sales and production levels may decrease causing a material adverse effect on the Company’s profitability. High Energy Costs—Higher energy costs worldwide and interrupted power supplies may have a material adverse effect on operations. Electrical power, natural gas, and fuel oil are vital to the Company’s operations as it relies on a continuous energy supply to conduct its business. Depending on the location and mix of energy sources, energy accounts for 10% to 25% of total production costs. Substantial increases and volatility in energy costs could cause the Company to experience a significant increase in operating costs, which may have a material adverse effect on operations. 11 Global Economic Environment—The global credit, financial and economic environment could have a material adverse effect on operations and financial condition. The global credit, financial and economic environment could have a material adverse effect on operations, including the following: • Downturns in the business or financial condition of any of the Company’s customers or suppliers could result in a loss of revenues or a disruption in the supply of raw materials; • Tightening of credit in financial markets could reduce the Company’s ability, as well as the ability of the Company’s customers and suppliers, to obtain future financing; • Volatile market performance could affect the fair value of the Company’s pension assets and liabilities, potentially requiring the Company to make significant additional contributions to its pension plans to maintain prescribed funding levels; • The deterioration of any of the lending parties under the Company’s revolving credit facility or the creditworthiness of the counterparties to the Company’s derivative transactions could result in such parties’ failure to satisfy their obligations under their arrangements with the Company; and • A significant weakening of the Company’s financial position or results of operations could result in noncompliance with the covenants under the Company’s indebtedness. Business Integration Risks—The Company may not be able to effectively integrate additional businesses it has acquired or will acquire in the future. The Company’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the Vitro Acquisition will depend, to a large extent, on its ability to integrate the two businesses. The combination of two independent businesses is a complex, costly and time-consuming process and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully integrate the Vitro Business into its business, or if such integration is successfully accomplished, that such integration will not be more costly or take longer than presently contemplated. Integration of the Vitro Acquisition may include various risks and uncertainties, including the factors discussed in the paragraph below. If the Company cannot successfully integrate and manage the Vitro Business within a reasonable time following the Vitro Acquisition, the Company may not be able to realize the potential and anticipated benefits of the Vitro Acquisition, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s share price, business, cash flows, results of operations and financial position. The Company may also consider other strategic transactions, including acquisitions that will complement, strengthen and enhance growth in its worldwide glass operations. The Company evaluates opportunities on a preliminary basis from time to time, but these transactions may not advance beyond the preliminary stages or be completed. Such acquisitions are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including: • The inability to integrate effectively the operations, products, technologies and personnel of the acquired companies (some of which are located in diverse geographic regions) and achieve expected synergies; • The potential disruption of existing business and diversion of management’s attention from day-to-day operations; • The inability to maintain uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies; • The need or obligation to divest portions of the acquired companies; • The potential impairment of relationships with customers; • The potential failure to identify material problems and liabilities during due diligence review of acquisition targets; • The potential failure to obtain sufficient indemnification rights to fully offset possible liabilities associated with acquired businesses; and • The challenges associated with operating in new geographic regions. 12 In addition, the Company cannot make assurances that the integration and consolidation of newly acquired businesses will achieve any anticipated cost savings and operating synergies. Customer Consolidation—The continuing consolidation of the Company’s customer base may intensify pricing pressures and have a material adverse effect on operations. Many of the Company’s largest customers have acquired companies with similar or complementary product lines. This consolidation has increased the concentration of the Company’s business with its largest customers. In many cases, such consolidation has been accompanied by pressure from customers for lower prices, reflecting the increase in the total volume of products purchased or the elimination of a price differential between the acquiring customer and the company acquired. Increased pricing pressures from the Company’s customers may have a material adverse effect on operations. Operational Disruptions—Profitability could be affected by unanticipated operational disruptions. The Company’s glass container manufacturing process is asset intensive and includes the use of large furnaces and machines. The Company periodically experiences unanticipated disruptions to its assets and these events can have an adverse effect on its business operations and profitability. The impacts of these operational disruptions include, but are not limited to, higher maintenance, production changeover and shipping costs, higher capital spending, as well as lower absorption of fixed costs during periods of extended downtime. The Company maintains insurance policies in amounts and with coverage and deductibles that are reasonable and in line with industry standards; however, this insurance coverage may not be adequate to protect the Company from all liabilities and expenses that may arise. Seasonality—Profitability could be affected by varied seasonal demands. Due principally to the seasonal nature of the consumption of beer and other beverages, for which demand is stronger during the summer months, sales of the Company’s products have varied and are expected to vary by quarter. Shipments in the U.S. and Europe are typically greater in the second and third quarters of the year, while shipments in the Asia Pacific region are typically greater in the first and fourth quarters of the year, and shipments in Latin America are typically greater in the third and fourth quarters of the year. Unseasonably cool weather during peak demand periods can reduce demand for certain beverages packaged in the Company’s containers. Raw Materials—Profitability could be affected by the availability of raw materials. The raw materials that the Company uses have historically been available in adequate supply from multiple sources. For certain raw materials, however, there may be temporary shortages due to weather or other factors, including disruptions in supply caused by raw material transportation or production delays. These shortages, as well as material volatility in the cost of any of the principal raw materials that the Company uses, may have a material adverse effect on operations. Environmental Risks—The Company is subject to various environmental legal requirements and may be subject to new legal requirements in the future. These requirements may have a material adverse effect on operations. The Company’s operations and properties are subject to extensive laws, ordinances, regulations and other legal requirements relating to environmental protection, including legal requirements governing investigation and clean-up of contaminated properties as well as water discharges, air emissions, waste management and workplace health and safety. Such legal requirements frequently change and vary among jurisdictions. The Company’s operations and properties must comply with these legal requirements. These requirements may have a material adverse effect on operations. The Company has incurred, and expects to incur, costs for its operations to comply with environmental legal requirements, and these costs could increase in the future. Many environmental legal requirements provide for substantial fines, orders (including orders to cease operations), and criminal sanctions for violations. These legal 13 requirements may apply to conditions at properties that the Company presently or formerly owned or operated, as well as at other properties for which the Company may be responsible, including those at which wastes attributable to the Company were disposed. A significant order or judgment against the Company, the loss of a significant permit or license or the imposition of a significant fine may have a material adverse effect on operations. A number of governmental authorities have enacted, or are considering enacting, legal requirements that would mandate certain rates of recycling, the use of recycled materials and/or limitations on certain kinds of packaging materials. In addition, some companies with packaging needs have responded to such developments and/or perceived environmental concerns of consumers by using containers made in whole or in part of recycled materials. Such developments may reduce the demand for some of the Company’s products and/or increase the Company’s costs, which may have a material adverse effect on operations. Taxes—Potential tax law changes could adversely affect net income and cash flow. The Company is subject to income tax in the numerous jurisdictions in which it operates. Increases in income tax rates or other tax law changes, as well as ongoing audits by domestic and international authorities, could reduce the Company’s net income and cash flow from affected jurisdictions. In particular, potential tax law changes in the U.S. regarding the treatment of the Company’s unrepatriated non-U.S. earnings could have a material adverse effect on net income and cash flow. In addition, the Company’s products are subject to import and excise duties and/or sales or value-added taxes in many jurisdictions in which it operates. Increases in these indirect taxes could affect the affordability of the Company’s products and, therefore, reduce demand. Labor Relations—Some of the Company’s employees are unionized or represented by workers’ councils. The Company is party to a number of collective bargaining agreements with labor unions which at December 31, 2015, covered approximately 75% of the Company’s employees in North America. The principal collective bargaining agreement, which at December 31, 2015 covered approximately 76% of the Company’s union-affiliated employees in North America, will expire on March 31, 2016. Approximately 85% of employees in Latin America are covered by collective bargaining agreements. The majority of the hourly workers in Australia and New Zealand are also covered by collective bargaining agreements. The collective bargaining agreements in Latin America, Australia and New Zealand have varying terms and expiration dates. Upon the expiration of any collective bargaining agreement, if the Company is unable to negotiate acceptable contracts with labor unions, it could result in strikes by the affected workers and increased operating costs as a result of higher wages or benefits paid to union members. In Europe, a large number of the Company’s employees are employed in countries in which employment laws provide greater bargaining or other rights to employees than the laws of the U.S. Such employment rights require the Company to work collaboratively with the legal representatives of the employees to effect any changes to labor arrangements. For example, most of the Company’s employees in Europe are represented by workers’ councils that must approve any changes in conditions of employment, including salaries and benefits and staff changes, and may impede efforts to restructure the Company’s workforce. In addition, if the Company’s employees were to engage in a strike or other work stoppage, the Company could experience a significant disruption of operations and/or higher ongoing labor costs, which may have a material adverse effect on operations. Key Management and Personnel Retention—Failure to retain key management and personnel could have a material adverse effect on operations. The Company believes that its future success depends, in part, on its experienced management team and certain key personnel. The loss of certain key management and personnel could limit the Company’s ability to implement its business plans and meet its objectives. 14 Joint Ventures—Failure by joint venture partners to observe their obligations could have a material adverse effect on operations. A portion of the Company’s operations is conducted through joint ventures, including joint ventures in the Europe, North America, Asia Pacific segments and in retained corporate costs and other. If the Company’s joint venture partners do not observe their obligations or are unable to commit additional capital to the joint ventures, it is possible that the affected joint venture would not be able to operate in accordance with its business plans, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Cybersecurity and Information Technology—Security threats and the failure or disruption of the integrity of the Company’s information technology, or those of third parties with which it does business, could have a material adverse effect on its business and the results of operations. The Company relies on information technology to operate its plants, to communicate with its employees, customers and suppliers, to store sensitive business information and intellectual property, and to report financial and operating results. As with all large systems, the Company’s information technology systems could fail on their own accord or may be vulnerable to a variety of interruptions due to events, including, but not limited to, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, telecommunications failures, computer viruses, hackers or other security issues. The Company’s disaster recovery programs and other preventative measures may be unable to prevent the failure or disruption of the Company’s information technology systems, which could result in transaction errors, loss of customers, business disruptions, or loss of or damage to intellectual property and could have a material adverse effect on operations. As cyberattacks on various organizations have increased, the Company’s information technology systems may be subject to increased security issues. The Company has measures in place to prevent and detect global security threats, but may be unable to prevent certain security breaches. This may result in the loss of customers and business opportunities, regulatory fines, penalties or intervention, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensatory costs, and additional compliance costs. Failure or disruption of these systems, or the back-up systems, for any reason could disrupt the Company’s operations and negatively impact the Company’s cash flows or financial condition. Accounting Estimates—The Company’s financial results are based upon estimates and assumptions that may differ from actual results. In preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, several estimates and assumptions are made that affect the accounting for and recognition of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions must be made due to certain information used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements which is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision from data available or is not capable of being readily calculated based on generally accepted methodologies. The Company believes that accounting for long-lived assets, pension benefit plans, contingencies and litigation, and income taxes involves the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Actual results for all estimates could differ materially from the estimates and assumptions that the Company uses, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Accounting Standards—The adoption of new accounting standards or interpretations could adversely impact the Company’s financial results. New accounting standards or pronouncements could adversely affect the Company’s operating results or cause unanticipated fluctuations in its results in future periods. The accounting rules and regulations that the Company must comply with are complex and continually changing. In addition, many companies’ accounting policies are being subjected to heightened scrutiny by regulators and the public. While the Company believes that its financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the Company cannot predict the impact of future changes to accounting principles or its accounting policies on its financial statements going forward. 15 Goodwill—A significant write down of goodwill would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s reported results of operations and net worth. Goodwill at December 31, 2015 totaled $2.5 billion. The Company evaluates goodwill annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment using the required business valuation methods. These methods include the use of a weighted average cost of capital to calculate the present value of the expected future cash flows of the Company’s reporting units. Future changes in the cost of capital, expected cash flows, or other factors may cause the Company’s goodwill to be impaired, resulting in a non-cash charge against results of operations to write down goodwill for the amount of the impairment. If a significant write down is required, the charge would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s reported results of operations and net worth. Pension Funding—An increase in the underfunded status of the Company’s pension plans could adversely impact the Company’s operations, financial condition and liquidity. The Company contributed $17 million, $28 million and $96 million to its defined benefit pension plans in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The amount the Company is required to contribute to these plans is determined by the laws and regulations governing each plan, and is generally related to the funded status of the plans. A deterioration in the value of the plans’ investments or a decrease in the discount rate used to calculate plan liabilities generally would increase the underfunded status of the plans. An increase in the underfunded status of the plans could result in an increase in the Company’s obligation to make contributions to the plans, thereby reducing the cash available for working capital and other corporate uses, and may have an adverse impact on the Company’s operations, financial condition and liquidity. Material Weakness - The Company has identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting which has resulted in material misstatements in the Company’s previously issued financial statements. If the Company’s remedial measures are insufficient to address the material weakness, or if one or more additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting are discovered or occur in the future, the Company’s consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements and the Company could be required to further restate its financial results, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. As discussed in the Explanatory Note to this Amendment No. 1, in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and in Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures”, management identified a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015 related to a deficiency in the design of its control activities for the estimation of liabilities and costs related to probable losses for unasserted asbestos claims. The Company did not have sufficient controls in place to provide reasonable assurance that a material error would be prevented or detected related to the application of ASC 450 to the estimation of probable losses from unasserted asbestos claims. This deficiency in the design of the Company’s controls resulted in a material error in the Company’s financial statements as described further in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies in material control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a result of this material weakness, management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2015. To remediate the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, the Company will establish policies and procedures for the review, approval and application of generally accepted accounting principles to, and disclosure with respect to, unasserted asbestos claims. The Company intends to complement its revised method of determining its asbestos-related liability (see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) with appropriate 16 analytical and review controls to ensure that the Company’s liability and related disclosures comply with generally accepted accounting principles. If the Company’s remedial measures are insufficient to address the material weaknesses, or if one or more additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting are discovered or occur in the future, the Company’s consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements and the Company could be required to further restate the Company’s financial results, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, restrict the Company’s ability to access the capital markets, require the Company to expend significant resources to correct the weaknesses or deficiencies, subject the Company to fines, penalties or judgments, harm the Company’s reputation or otherwise cause a decline in investor confidence and cause a decline in the market price of the Company’s common stock. The Company cannot provide absolute assurance that additional significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will not be identified in the future. Any failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties the Company encounters in their implementation, could result in additional significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, cause the Company to fail to meet the Company’s periodic reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in the Company’s financial statements. ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS On October 9, 2015, the Company received a comment letter from the staff of the SEC's Division of Corporation Finance as part of its review of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 that commenced in June 2015. The staff requested additional information and provided comments relating to the Company’s process for determining the appropriate charge for estimated future asbestos-related costs. The Company responded to the October 9, 2015 letter on December 21, 2015 and believed that it had addressed the staff’s comments when it filed the Original Filing. On April 15, 2016, the Company received a comment letter from the staff. The staff’s letter responded to the Company’s comment response letter dated December 21, 2015. The staff’s comments requested the Company to reconsider (i) the factors included in accounting standards codification (“ASC”) 450 without limiting the analysis to a subset of the population of claims not yet asserted when determining the Company’s asbestos- related liability, (ii) the need to enhance the design of the Company’s existing process and internal controls so that all key factors and assumptions that affect the asbestos-related liability and disclosures are appropriately considered and (iii) the Company’s description of its critical accounting estimates related to the key judgments made to apply ASC 450. The Company responded to the staff’s comment letter on April 29, 2016 and believes that the revisions to the Original Filing contained in this Amendment No. 1 address all of the staff’s comments raised in its April 15 letter. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not received confirmation from the staff that its review process is complete. The Company intends to continue to work with the staff to resolve any remaining comments. 17 ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion should be read together with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K/A. All of the financial information presented in this Item 7 has been revised to reflect the restatement more fully described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In connection with the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015 (see Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), the Company has renamed the former South America segment to the Latin America segment. This change in segment name was made to reflect the addition of the Mexican and Bolivian operations from the Vitro Acquisition into the former South America segment. The acquired Vitro food and beverage glass container distribution business located in the United States is included in the North American operating segment. The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is segment operating profit, which consists of consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs. The segment data presented below is prepared in accordance with general accounting principles for segment reporting. The line titled “reportable segment totals”, however, is a non-GAAP measure when presented outside of the financial statement footnotes. Management has included reportable segment totals below to facilitate the discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s management uses segment operating profit, in combination with selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. Financial information regarding the Company’s reportable segments is as follows (dollars in millions): Net Sales: Europe . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Note: all amounts excluded from reportable segment totals are discussed in the following applicable sections. Executive Overview—Comparison of 2015 with 2014 2015 Highlights • The unfavorable effect of foreign currency exchange rates reduced net sales by 13% and segment operating profit by 16% in 2015 compared to the prior year • Acquired the food and beverage glass container business of Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V. for $2.297 billion • Entered into a new senior secured credit facility that matures in April 2020. To finance the Vitro Acquisition, this facility was then amended to borrow an incremental $1.25 billion. The Company also issued $1 billion of senior notes due 2023 and 2025. • Repaid the senior notes due 2016 • Repurchased $100 million of shares of common stock Net sales decreased by $628 million compared to the prior year primarily due to the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Net sales for 2015 included approximately $258 million from the acquired Vitro Business. Segment operating profit for reportable segments decreased by $168 million compared to the prior year. The decrease was largely attributable to the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and 28 higher operating costs due to cost inflation and lower operational performance in Europe. Segment operating profit for 2015 included approximately $46 million from the acquired Vitro Business. Net interest expense in 2015 increased $21 million compared to 2014. The increase was due to higher note repurchase premiums and the write-off of finance fees related to debt that was repaid during 2015 prior to its maturity. Exclusive of these items, net interest expense decreased $1 million in the current year primarily due to debt management activities and the weaker Euro exchange rate in relation to the U.S. dollar, partially offset by an increase in net interest expense as a result of higher debt due to the Vitro Acquisition. For 2015, the Company recorded earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company of $139 million, or $0.85 per share (diluted), compared with earnings of $187 million, or $1.13 per share (diluted), for 2014. Earnings in both periods included items that management considered not representative of ongoing operations. These items decreased earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company by $186 million, or $1.15 per share, in 2015 and $249 million, or $1.50 per share, in 2014. Results of Operations—Comparison of 2015 with 2014 Net Sales The Company’s net sales in 2015 were $6,156 million compared with $6,784 million in 2014, a decrease of $628 million. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, primarily due to a weaker Brazilian real, Colombian peso, Euro, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar, impacted sales by $881 million in 2015 compared to 2014. Driven by incremental shipments related to the Vitro Acquisition, total glass container shipments, in tonnes, were up approximately 3% in 2015 compared to 2014. The Vitro Acquisition resulted in approximately $258 million of additional sales. Excluding the impact of the Vitro Acquisition, shipments in 2015 were comparable to 2014. On a global basis, sales volumes of wine, spirits, food and non-alcoholic beverages all grew year-on-year. While sales volumes in the beer category declined by approximately 1%, driven by a decline in mainstream beer, shipments into craft and premium beer customers continued to expand. However, an unfavorable sales mix resulted in $47 million of lower net sales in 2015. Net sales also benefited from slightly higher selling prices in 2015.

The primary reason for the decline in net sales in the region in 2015 was a $445 million impact due to foreign currency exchange rates, as the Euro weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar. Glass container shipments in 2015 increased slightly compared to the prior year and this increased net sales by $9 million. Selling prices decreased in Europe due to competitive pressures and resulted in a $34 million decrease in net sales in 2015. This trend in lower prices is expected to continue into the first quarter of 2016. North America: Net sales in North America in 2015 were $2,039 million compared with $2,003 million in 2014, an increase of $36 million, or 2%. Net sales from the acquired Vitro food and beverage business in the United States increased the region’s net sales by $80 million in 2015. Total glass container shipments in the region were up 3% in 2015 compared to 2014. Excluding the impact of the Vitro Acquisition in the region, glass container shipments were up slightly in 2015, however, an unfavorable sales mix resulted in $4 million of lower sales. Lower selling prices decreased net sales by $14 million in 2015 due, in part, to the Company’s contractual pass through provisions of lower natural gas costs. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate changes decreased net sales by $26 million, as the Canadian dollar weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar. 29 Latin America: Net sales in Latin America in 2015 were $1,064 million compared with $1,159 million in 2014, a decrease of $95 million, or 8%. The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes decreased net sales $293 million in 2015 compared to 2014, principally due to a decline in the Brazilian real and the Colombian peso in relation to the U.S. dollar. Net sales from the acquired Vitro food and beverage business in Mexico and Bolivia increased the region’s net sales by approximately $178 million in 2015. Total glass container shipments were up approximately 18% in 2015. Excluding the impact of the Vitro Acquisition in the region, glass container shipments were down nearly 4% in 2015. This decline impacted net sales by approximately $45 million and was primarily due to a general economic slowdown in Brazil, which is expected to continue into 2016. Improved pricing in the current year benefited net sales by $65 million. Asia Pacific: Net sales in Asia Pacific in 2015 were $671 million compared with $793 million for 2014, a decrease of $122 million, or 15%. The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes decreased net sales $117 million in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to the weakening of the Australian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar. Glass container shipments were down 3% compared to the prior year, largely due to the planned plant closures in China in 2014. This resulted in $7 million of lower sales in 2015. Higher prices increased net sales by $2 million in the current year. Segment Operating Profit Operating profit of the reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided. Unallocated corporate expenses and certain other expenses not directly related to the reportable segments’ operations are included in Retained corporate costs and other. For further information, see Segment Information included in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Segment operating profit of reportable segments in 2015 was $740 million compared to $908 million in 2014, a decrease of $168 million, or 19%. The decrease in segment operating profit was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, cost inflation and lower operational performance in Europe increased operating costs in the current year. Segment operating profit for 2015 included approximately $46 million from the acquired Vitro Businesses. The change in segment operating profit of reportable segments can be summarized as follows (dollars in millions): Segment operating profit - 2014 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rates in 2015 decreased segment operating profit by $63 million compared to the prior year. The region also had higher operating costs and lower production volumes in 2015 due to a higher level of furnace rebuild activity and lower productivity. In addition, the region did not receive an energy credit from a local government entity in 2015 as it had in the prior year. Together, this activity contributed to a $49 million increase to operating expenses in Europe in 2015 compared to 2014. Lower selling prices impacted segment operating profit by $34 million due to competitive activity, primarily in Southern Europe, while slightly higher sales volumes benefited segment operating profit by $2 million in 2015. North America: Segment operating profit in North America in 2015 was $265 million compared with $240 million in 2014, an increase of $25 million, or 10%. Segment operating profit from the acquired Vitro food and beverage glass container distribution business in the region contributed $4 million in 2015. Segment 30 operating profit also benefited from lower operating costs of $38 million in the current year, which were driven by lower energy, supply chain and logistics costs. As a result of the lower energy costs and the Company’s contractual pass through provisions, selling prices were $14 million lower in 2015 compared to 2014. Also, the unfavorable effects of the weakening of the Canadian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar decreased segment operating profit by $3 million. Latin America: Segment operating profit in Latin America in 2015 was $183 million compared with $227 million in 2014, a decrease of $44 million, or 19%. The unfavorable effects of foreign currency rate changes decreased segment operating profit by $58 million in the current year. Segment operating profit from the acquired Vitro food and beverage business increased the region’s operating profit by $42 million in 2015. Excluding the impact of the Vitro Acquisition, the decline in sales volume discussed above reduced segment operating profit by $12 million. Segment operating profit was also impacted by $75 million of higher operating costs, primarily due to energy and soda ash inflation in Brazil. In addition, approximately $6 million of non-strategic asset sales, which benefited 2014, did not reoccur in 2015. Higher selling prices increased segment operating profit by $65 million in 2015. Asia Pacific: Segment operating profit in Asia Pacific in 2015 was $83 million compared with $88 million in 2014, a decrease of $5 million, or 6%. The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rates decreased segment operating profit by $17 million. Despite the decline in sales volume discussed above, a favorable sales mix resulted in a $2 million increase to segment operating profit. Segment operating profit also benefited as operating costs decreased by $8 million in the current year driven by footprint savings from prior year capacity reductions in the region and the favorable impact of an insurance recovery. Higher selling prices increased segment operating profit by $2 million in the current year. Interest Expense, net Net interest expense in 2015 was $251 million compared with $230 million in 2014. The increase was due to higher note repurchase premiums and the write-off of finance fees related to refinancing activities in 2015. Exclusive of these items, net interest expense decreased $1 million in the current year primarily due to debt management activities and the weaker Euro exchange rate in relation to the U.S. dollar, partially offset by an increase in net interest expense as a result of higher debt due to the Vitro Acquisition. Provision for Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate from continuing operations for 2015 was 39.6%, compared with 30.0% for 2014. The effective tax rate for 2015 was impacted by several charges that management considered not representative of ongoing operations, including charges for note repurchase premiums, the write-off of finance fees, restructuring charges and acquisition fees, for which no tax benefit was recorded due to the Company’s valuation allowance recorded in the U.S. The effective tax rate for 2014 was impacted by a non-income tax charge, which was not deductible for income tax purposes. Excluding the amounts related to items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations, the Company’s effective tax rate for 2015 was approximately 25%, compared with approximately 22% for 2014. The 2015 effective tax rate was higher due to the geographic mix of earnings and timing issues associated with the establishment of the legal structure for the acquired operations in Mexico, the latter of which was resolved by year end 2015. Net Earnings Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests for 2015 was $23 million compared to $28 million for 2014. The decrease in 2015 was largely attributable to the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. 31 Earnings (loss) from Continuing Operations Attributable to the Company For 2015, the Company recorded earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company of $139 million, or $0.85 per share (diluted), compared with earnings of $187 million, or $1.13 per share (diluted), for 2014. The after tax effects of the items excluded from segment operating profit, the unusual tax items and the additional interest charges increased or decreased earnings in 2015 and 2014 as set forth in the following table (dollars in millions).

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates Given the global nature of its operations, the Company is subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. As described above, the Company’s reported revenues and segment operating profit in 2015 were reduced due to foreign currency effects compared to 2014. This trend has continued into 2016 as a result of a strengthening U.S. dollar. During times of a strengthening U.S. dollar, the reported revenues and segment operating profit of the Company’s international operations will be reduced because the local currencies will translate into fewer U.S. dollars. The Company uses certain derivative instruments to mitigate a portion of the risk associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates. Executive Overview—Comparison of 2014 with 2013 2014 Highlights • Segment operating profit decreased due to higher operating costs, partially offset by higher selling prices and the benefits from the European asset optimization program • Entered into a joint venture in Mexico and a long-term supply agreement with Constellation Brands, Inc. to supply glass containers for their beer business • Issued $800 million of senior notes due 2022 and 2025 and repurchased $611 million of exchangeable senior notes • Strong cash generation improves leverage ratio and continues share repurchases Net sales decreased by $183 million compared to the prior year due to a 2% decline in glass container shipments and due to the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Higher selling prices had a positive impact on net sales. 32 Segment operating profit for reportable segments decreased by $39 million compared to the prior year. The decrease was mainly attributable to higher operating costs, driven by cost inflation in most of the regions, higher supply chain and production costs in North America and lower production volumes in Asia Pacific and North America. Higher selling prices and the benefits from the European asset optimization partially offset these costs. Net interest expense in 2014 increased $1 million compared to 2013. The increase was due to higher note repurchase premiums and the write-off of finance fees related to debt that was repaid during 2014 prior to its maturity than experienced in 2013. Exclusive of these costs, net interest declined $5 million in 2014 compared to 2013 due to debt reduction initiatives and lower interest rates. Earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company in 2014 were $187 million, or $1.13 per share (diluted), compared with $335 million, or $2.02 per share (diluted), for 2013. Earnings in both periods included items that management considered not representative of ongoing operations. These items decreased earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company by $249 million, or $1.50 per share, in 2014 and $115 million, or $0.70 per share, in 2013. Results of Operations—Comparison of 2014 with 2013 Net Sales The Company’s net sales in 2014 were $6,784 million compared with $6,967 million in 2013, a decrease of $183 million. Glass container shipments, in tonnes, were down 2% in 2014 compared to 2013, driven by lower sales in Asia Pacific. Net sales were also lower due to the unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes, primarily due to a weaker Brazilian real, Colombian peso and Australian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar. Net sales in 2014 benefited from higher selling prices. The change in net sales of reportable segments can be summarized as follows (dollars in millions): Net sales— 2013 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Glass container shipments in 2014 increased 2% compared to the prior year, particularly in the beer and wine categories. The higher sales volume, which increased net sales by $49 million, was mainly due to unseasonably warm weather conditions in the first quarter and the carryover benefits of the Company’s wine share recovery efforts from the prior year. Net sales in Europe decreased by $3 million due to the unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes, as the Euro weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar. Lower selling prices also reduced sales by $39 million in 2014. North America: Net sales in North America in 2014 were $2,003 million compared with $2,002 million in 2013, an increase of $1 million. Higher selling prices of $45 million increased net sales in 2014 due, in part, to the Company’s contractual pass through provisions, as well as from passing through the freight costs for a large customer. Net sales declined by $30 million in 2014 compared to the prior year due to a 1% decrease in glass container shipments and a less favorable sales mix. The primary driver for the decline in the region’s volumes in 2014 was due to lower sales to major domestic beer brands. Unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates decreased net sales by $14 million, as the Canadian dollar weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar. Latin America: Net sales in Latin America in 2014 were $1,159 million compared with $1,186 million in 2013, a decrease of $27 million, or 2%. The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes decreased net sales $96 million in 2014 compared to 2013, principally due to a decline in the Brazilian real and the Colombian peso in relation to the U.S. dollar. Net sales increased by $14 million in 2014 driven by a 4% increase in glass container shipments, partially offset by a change in sales mix. Volume growth was particularly 33 strong in the beer category in 2014 and was evident in most of the countries where the Company operates in the region. Improved pricing in the current year benefited net sales by $55 million. Asia Pacific: Net sales in Asia Pacific in 2014 were $793 million compared with $966 million for 2013, a decrease of $173 million, or 18%. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower sales volume, which resulted in $145 million of lower sales in 2014. Glass container shipments were down 20% compared to the prior year, largely due to the planned plant closures in China, as well as lower shipments in Australia due to weaker demand in the domestic beer and export wine markets. To balance supply with demand, the Company permanently closed a furnace in Australia in the third quarter of 2014. The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes decreased net sales $40 million in 2014 compared to 2013, primarily due to the weakening of the Australian dollar in relation to the U.S. dollar. Higher prices increased net sales by $12 million in the current year. Segment Operating Profit Operating profit of the reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided. Unallocated corporate expenses and certain other expenses not directly related to the reportable segments’ operations are included in Retained corporate costs and other. For further information, see Segment Information included in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Segment operating profit of reportable segments in 2014 was $908 million compared to $947 million in 2013, a decrease of $39 million, or 4%. The decline in segment operating profit was primarily due to higher operating costs, partially offset by the benefits from the European asset optimization program and higher selling prices. Operating costs increased in the current year due to cost inflation, higher supply chain and production costs in North America and lower production volumes in Asia Pacific.

Lower operating expenses, driven by cost deflation and benefits from the region’s asset optimization program, had a $70 million positive impact on segment operating profit in 2014. The increase in sales volume discussed above increased segment operating profit by $14 million. Partially offsetting these benefits were lower selling prices, which were down $39 million in the current year due, in part, to competitive pressures in the region. Foreign currency exchange rates increased segment profit by $3 million in 2014. In 2014, the Company continued implementing the European asset optimization program to increase the efficiency and capability of its European operations. Through this program, the Company expects to improve the long term profitability of this region through investments and by addressing higher cost facilities to better align its European manufacturing footprint with market and customer needs. North America: Segment operating profit in North America in 2014 was $240 million compared with $307 million in 2013, a decrease of $67 million, or 22%. The decrease in segment operating profit was primarily due to higher operating costs of $102 million in the current year, which were driven by higher energy, raw material and supply chain costs, as well as lower production and productivity levels. The decrease in sales volume mentioned above reduced segment profit by $9 million. Higher selling prices partially offset these 34 impacts and increased segment operating profit by $45 million in the current year. The unfavorable effects of foreign exchange rates decreased segment profit by $1 million. Latin America: Segment operating profit in Latin America in 2014 was $227 million compared with $204 million in 2013, an increase of $23 million, or 11%. Higher selling prices increased segment operating profit in 2014 by $55 million. The increase in sales volume discussed above increased segment operating profit by $13 million. Several non-strategic asset sales also benefited segment operating profit by $6 million in the current year. Operating costs were $45 million higher in 2014, primarily driven by cost inflation, and partially offset by higher productivity in the region. The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate changes decreased segment operating profit by $6 million in the current year. Asia Pacific: Segment operating profit in Asia Pacific in 2014 was $88 million compared with $131 million in 2013, a decrease of $43 million, or 33%. Operating costs increased by $28 million in the current year and were driven by lower production volumes and cost inflation. The decline in sales volume discussed above decreased segment operating profit by $25 million. The unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rates decreased segment profit by $2 million. Higher selling prices increased segment profit by $12 million in the current year. Interest Expense, net Net interest expense in 2014 was $230 million compared with $229 million in 2013. Interest expense for 2014 included $20 million for note repurchase premiums and the write-off of finance fees related to the tender offer to purchase all of its outstanding 3.00% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2015 (the “2015 Exchangeable Notes”). Net interest expense for 2013 included $14 million for note repurchase premiums and the write-off of finance fees related to the discharge of the €300 million Senior Notes due 2017 (the “2017 Senior Notes”) and related to the repurchase of a portion of the 2015 Exchangeable Notes. Exclusive of these items, net interest expense decreased $5 million in the current year primarily due to debt reduction initiatives and lower interest rates Provision for Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate from continuing operations for 2014 was 30.0%, compared with 25.6% for 2013. The effective tax rate for 2014 was impacted by a non-income tax charge, which was not deductible for income tax purposes. Excluding the amounts related to items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations, the Company’s effective tax rate for 2014 was 22.4%, compared with 21.9% for 2013. Net Earnings Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests for 2014 was $28 million compared to $13 million for 2013. The increase in 2014 was primarily due to the nonoccurrence of the impacts from restructuring and asset impairment charges in 2013 at the Company’s less than wholly-owned facilities in Latin America and Asia Pacific, as well as higher earnings in the Company’s less than wholly-owned subsidiaries in Latin America in 2014. Earnings from Continuing Operations Attributable to the Company For 2014, the Company recorded earnings from continuing operations attributable to the Company of $187 million compared with $335 million for 2013. The after tax effects of the items excluded from segment 35 operating profit, the unusual tax items and the additional interest charges increased or decreased earnings in 2014 and 2013 as set forth in the following table (dollars in millions).

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates Given the global nature of its operations, the Company is subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. As described above, the Company’s reported revenues and segment operating profit in 2014 were reduced due to foreign currency effects compared to 2013. This trend has continued into 2015 as a result of a strengthening U.S. dollar. During times of a strengthening U.S. dollar, the reported revenues and segment operating profit of the Company’s international operations will be reduced because the local currencies will translate into fewer U.S. dollars. The Company uses certain derivative instruments to mitigate a portion of the risk associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates. Items Excluded from Reportable Segment Totals Retained Corporate Costs and Other Retained corporate costs and other for 2015 were $70 million compared with $100 million for 2014. Retained corporate costs and other declined in 2015 compared to 2014 due to lower pension expense, lower management incentive compensation expense and the favorable impact from currency hedges. Retained corporate costs and other for 2014 were $100 million compared with $119 million for 2013. Retained corporate costs and other declined in 2014 compared to 2013 due to lower pension expense. Charge for Asbestos-Related Costs In April 2016, the Company determined that it had incorrectly applied the provisions of ASC 450, Contingencies, in measuring its liability related to unasserted claims and related legal costs arising from the Company’s previous sale of products containing asbestos (see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Beginning in 2003, the Company had estimated its asbestos-related liability based on an analysis of how far in the future it could reasonably estimate the number of claims it would receive. Subsequent to the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (“2015 Annual Report”), the Company has concluded that its method for estimating its future asbestos-related liability was not consistent with ASC 450. Therefore, with the assistance of an external consultant, and utilizing a model with actuarial inputs, the Company has developed a new method for reasonably estimating its total asbestos-related liability. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detail. Using the new model, the Company calculated a total 36 asbestos-related liability of $817 million as of December 31, 2015, which is $295 million higher than previously calculated. The revised liability is reflected in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2015. Using the same model with actuarial inputs, the Company also revised its total asbestos-related liability as of December 31, 2014 to $939 million. In light of the foregoing, the Company amended its 2015 Annual Report to restate the financial statements contained therein to reflect the effects of its new method for estimating its total asbestos-related liability and to make certain corresponding disclosures related thereto (see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The restated charges for asbestos-related costs were $16 million, $46 million, and $12 million for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company continues to believe that its ultimate asbestos-related liability cannot be estimated with certainty. As part of its future comprehensive annual reviews, the Company will estimate its total asbestos- related liability and such reviews may result in adjustments to the liability accrued at the time of the review. See “Critical Accounting Estimates” and Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Restructuring, Asset Impairment and Other Charges During 2015, the Company recorded charges totaling $80 million for restructuring, asset impairment and other charges. These charges reflect $63 million of completed furnace closures, primarily in the North America and Latin America regions and other charges of $17 million. During 2014, the Company recorded charges totaling $91 million for restructuring, asset impairment and other charges. These charges reflect $76 million of completed and planned furnace closures in Europe and Asia Pacific and other charges of $15 million. During 2013, the Company recorded charges totaling $119 million for restructuring, asset impairment and related charges. These charges reflect completed and planned plant and furnace closures in Europe, Latin America and Asia Pacific, as well as global headcount reduction initiatives. These charges also include an asset impairment charge related to the Company’s operations in Argentina, primarily due to macroeconomic issues in that country. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Acquisition-related Fair Value Adjustments and Strategic Transaction Costs During 2015, the Company recorded charges of $22 million for acquisition-related fair value inventory adjustments related to the Vitro Acquisition. These charges were due to the accounting rules requiring inventory purchased in a business combination to be marked up to fair value and then recorded as an increase to cost of goods sold as the inventory is sold. During 2015, the Company also recorded charges of $10 million for acquisition-related fair value intangible asset adjustments related to trademark assets with short-term lives acquired as part of the Vitro Acquisition. During 2015, the Company recorded charges of $23 million for strategic transaction costs related to the Vitro Acquisition. Non-income tax charge In 2014, the Company recorded a $69 million charge based on a ruling on a non-income tax assessment. Pension Settlement Charges During 2014, the Company recorded charges totaling $65 million for pension settlements in the United States and the Netherlands. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. 37 Discontinued Operations On March 10, 2015, a tribunal constituted under the auspices of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (“ICSID”) awarded a subsidiary of the Company more than $455 million in an international arbitration against Venezuela related to the 2010 expropriation of the Company’s majority interest in two plants in that country. On July 10, 2015, ICSID confirmed that it had received from Venezuela a petition to annul the award. The annulment process can take up to several years to complete. The Company is unable at this stage to predict the amount or timing of compensation it will ultimately receive under the award. Therefore, the Company has not recognized this award in its financial statements. A separate arbitration is pending with ICSID to obtain compensation primarily for third-party minority shareholders’ lost interests in the two expropriated plants. The loss from discontinued operations of $4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 relates to ongoing costs for the Venezuelan expropriation. The loss from discontinued operations of $23 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 included a settlement of a dispute with the purchaser of a previously disposed business, as well as ongoing costs related to the Venezuela expropriation. Acquisition of Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V.’s Food and Beverage Glass Container Business On September 1, 2015, the Company completed the Vitro Acquisition in a cash transaction valued at approximately $2.297 billion, subject to a working capital adjustment and certain other adjustments. The Vitro Business in Mexico is the largest supplier of glass containers in that country, manufacturing glass containers across multiple end uses, including food, soft drinks, beer, wine and spirits. The Vitro Acquisition included five food and beverage glass container plants in Mexico, a plant in Bolivia and a North American distribution business, and provided the Company with a competitive position in the glass packaging market in Mexico. The results of the Vitro Business have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since September 1, 2015. Vitro’s food and beverage glass container operations in Mexico and Bolivia are included in the Latin American operating segment while its distribution business is included in the North American operating segment. The Company financed the Vitro Acquisition with the proceeds from its recently completed senior notes offering, cash on hand and the incremental term loan facilities (see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Capital Resources and Liquidity As of December 31, 2015, the Company had cash and total debt of $399 million and $5.6 billion, respectively, compared to $512 million and $3.4 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2014. A significant portion of the cash was held in mature, liquid markets where the Company has operations, such as the U.S., Europe and Australia, and is readily available to fund global liquidity requirements. The amount of cash held in non-U.S. locations as of December 31, 2015 was $393 million. Current and Long-Term Debt On April 22, 2015, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries entered into a new Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “Agreement”), which amended and restated the previous credit agreement (the “Previous Agreement”). The proceeds from the Agreement were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the Previous Agreement and the 7.375% senior notes due 2016. The Company recorded $42 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the related write-off of unamortized finance fees in 2015. In connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015 (see Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the Agreement, which provided for additional incremental availability under the incremental dollar cap in the Agreement of up to $1,250 million. In addition, in connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015, the Company entered into the First Incremental Amendment to the Agreement (the “Incremental Amendment”) pursuant to which the Company incurred $1,250 million of senior secured 38 incremental term loan facilities, comprised of (i) a $675 million term loan A facility (the “incremental term loan A facility”) on substantially the same terms and conditions (including as to maturity) as the term loan A facility in the Agreement and (ii) a $575 million term loan B facility (the “incremental term loan B facility”) maturing seven years after the closing of the Vitro Acquisition using its incremental capacity under the Agreement. At December 31, 2015, the Agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 2 and the Incremental Amendment (the “Amended Agreement”), includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $600 million multicurrency revolving credit facility, a $1,575 million term loan A facility ($1,546 million net of debt issuance costs), and a €279 million term loan A facility ($301 million net of debt issuance costs), each of which has a final maturity date of April 22, 2020. The Amended Agreement also includes a $575 million term loan B facility ($563 million net of debt issuance costs) with a final maturity date of September 1, 2022. At December 31, 2015, the Company had unused credit of $872 million available under the Amended Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Amended Agreement at December 31, 2015 was 2.37%. The Amended Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, engage in certain affiliate transactions, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain subordinated debt obligations. The Amended Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Total Leverage Ratio, that requires the Company as of the last day of a fiscal quarter not to exceed a ratio of 4.0x calculated by dividing consolidated total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, by consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Amended Agreement. The maximum Total Leverage Ratio is subject to an increase of 0.5x for the four fiscal quarters commencing on and following the consummation of certain qualifying acquisitions as defined in the Amended Agreement. In connection with the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015, the Company elected to increase such maximum Total Leverage Ratio to 4.5x for the four fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2016. The Total Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Total Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum. On February 3, 2016, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the Amended Agreement, which provided for an increase in the maximum Total Leverage Ratio for purposes of the financial covenant in the Amended Agreement to 5.0x for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2016, 4.50x for the fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017, and stepping back down to 4.0x for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2017 and each fiscal quarter ending thereafter. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio was 4.0x, which was below the 4.5x specified maximum level at that date. The Company expects its Total Leverage Ratio to increase in the first three quarters of 2016, yet remain below the amended levels stated above, due to seasonal working capital requirements. Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4. In such an event, the Company could not request borrowings under the revolving facility, and all amounts outstanding under the Amended Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable. If an event of default occurs under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4 and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Amended Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities. As of December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Amended Agreement. In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow funds under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4 will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions. The interest rates on borrowings under the Amended Agreement are, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the Amended Agreement, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for the term loan A facility and the revolving credit facility is linked to the Company’s Total Leverage 39 Ratio and ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.25% to 0.75% for Base Rate loans. In addition, a facility fee is payable on the revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum linked to the Total Leverage Ratio. The applicable margin for the term loan B facility is 2.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and 1.75% for Base Rate loans. The incremental term loan B facility is subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. Borrowings under the Amended Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate and certain other excluded assets, of certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries. Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity investments in certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and, in the case of foreign borrowings, of stock of certain foreign subsidiaries. All borrowings under the Amended Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company for the term of the Amended Agreement. Also, in connection with the Vitro Acquisition, during August 2015, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $700 million that bear interest at 5.875% and are due August 15, 2023 (the “Senior Notes due 2023”) and senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 6.375% and are due August 15, 2025 (together with the Senior Notes due 2023, the “2015 Senior Notes”). The 2015 Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company‘s domestic subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the 2015 Senior Notes, after deducting the debt discount and debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $972 million and were used to finance, in part, the Vitro Acquisition. During December 2014, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $500 million that bear interest at 5.00% and are due January 15, 2022 (the “Senior Notes due 2022”). The Company also issued senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 5.375% and are due January 15, 2025 (together with the Senior Notes due 2022, the “2014 Senior Notes”). The 2014 Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company‘s domestic subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the 2014 Senior Notes, after deducting debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $790 million and were used to purchase $611 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.00% 2015 Exchangeable Senior Notes. The remaining balance of the Exchangeable Senior Notes was repaid in the second quarter of 2015. The Company assesses its capital raising and refinancing needs on an ongoing basis and may enter into additional credit facilities and seek to issue equity and/or debt securities in the domestic and international capital markets if market conditions are favorable. Also, depending on market conditions, the Company may elect to repurchase portions of its debt securities in the open market. The Company has a €185 million European accounts receivable securitization program, which extends through September 2016, subject to periodic renewal of backup credit lines. Information related to the Company’s accounts receivable securitization program as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows: Balance (included in short-term loans) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ Weighted average interest rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 158 1.21 % $ 122 1.41 % 2015 2014 Cash Flows Free cash flow was $210 million for 2015 compared to $329 million for 2014. The Company defines free cash flow as cash provided by continuing operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment. Free cash flow does not conform to U.S. GAAP and should not be construed as an alternative to the cash flow measures reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company uses free cash flow for internal reporting, forecasting and budgeting and believes this information allows the board of directors, management, investors and 40 analysts to better understand the Company’s financial performance. Free cash flow for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 is calculated as follows (dollars in millions): Cash provided by continuing operating activities . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ Additions to property, plant and equipment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The decrease in cash provided by continuing operating activities in 2015 was primarily due to lower earnings. Lower working capital benefited cash provided by continuing operating activities by $88 million in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to an increase in accounts payable. Lower year-over-year pension contributions, asbestos-related payments, and cash paid for restructuring activities also benefited cash provided by continuing operating activities in 2015 compared to 2014. In addition, the Company experienced a $71 million year-over-year decline in cash paid for non-current assets and liabilities in 2015 compared to 2014. This decrease was primarily due to less cash paid for returnable packaging and installment payments related to a non-income tax assessment that was resolved with a foreign tax authority in 2015. Investing activities: Cash utilized in investing activities was $2,748 million for 2015 compared to $455 million for 2014. Capital spending for property, plant and equipment during 2015 was $402 million, compared with $369 million in the prior year, reflecting higher spending for the construction of a new furnace in Mexico. Investing activities in 2015 also included $2,351 million paid for acquisitions, primarily related to the Vitro Acquisition. Investing activities in 2014 included $114 million paid for acquisitions, primarily related to the Company’s investment in a joint venture with Constellation Brands, Inc. (NYSE: STZ) (“Constellation”) to operate and expand a glass container plant in Nava, Mexico. To help meet current and rising demand from Constellation’s adjacent brewery, the joint venture plans to expand the plant from one furnace to four over the next three years. The Company contributed an additional $20 million to this joint venture in 2015 and expects to contribute approximately $140 million through 2017 for the joint venture’s future expansion plans. Financing activities: Cash provided by financing activities was $2,057 million for 2015 compared to $70 million of cash utilized for 2014. Financing activities in 2015 included additions to long-term debt of $4,538 million, primarily related to the borrowings for the Vitro Acquisition and the refinancing of the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facility. Financing activities in 2015 also included the repayment of long-term debt of $2,321, which includes the repayment of the Previous Agreement and the repayment of the senior notes due in 2016. Borrowings under short-term loans increased by $51 million in 2015. The Company paid approximately $90 million in note repurchase premiums and finance fees in 2015 compared to $11 million in 2014. The Company paid $22 million and $37 million in distributions to noncontrolling interests in 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company also repurchased shares of its common stock for $100 million in 2015 compared to $32 million repurchased in 2014. The repurchases were completed using cash on hand and included an accelerated share repurchase program. Additional details about the Company’s share repurchase activities are provided in Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company anticipates that cash flows from its operations and from utilization of credit available under the Agreement will be sufficient to fund its operating and seasonal working capital needs, debt service and other obligations on a short-term (twelve months) and long-term basis. Based on the Company’s expectations regarding future payments for lawsuits and claims and also based on the Company’s expected operating cash flow, the Company believes that the payment of any deferred amounts of previously settled or otherwise determined lawsuits and claims, and the resolution of presently pending and anticipated future lawsuits and claims associated with asbestos, will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s liquidity on a short-term or long-term basis. 41 Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements The following information summarizes the Company’s significant contractual cash obligations at December 31, 2015 (dollars in millions).

(2) The Company’s purchase obligations consist principally of contracted amounts for energy and molds. In cases where variable prices are involved, current market prices have been used. The amount above does not include ordinary course of business purchase orders because the majority of such purchase orders may be canceled. The Company does not believe such purchase orders will adversely affect its liquidity position. (3) In order to maintain minimum funding requirements, the Company is required to make contributions to its defined benefit pension plans of approximately $25 million in 2016. Future funding requirements for the Company’s pension plans will depend largely on actual asset returns and future actuarial assumptions, such as discount rates, and can vary significantly. (4) In 2014, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Constellation Brands, Inc. to operate a glass container plant in Nava, Mexico. To help meet current and rising demand from Constellation’s adjacent brewery, the joint venture plans to expand the plant from one furnace to four over the next three years. The Company expects to contribute approximately $140 million for the joint venture’s expansion plans through 2017. The Company is unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate as to when cash settlement with taxing authorities may occur for its unrecognized tax benefits. Therefore, the liability for unrecognized tax benefits is not included in the table above. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Critical Accounting Estimates The Company’s analysis and discussion of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Estimates and assumptions are based on historical and other 42 factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time the financial statements are issued. The results of these estimates may form the basis of the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities and may not be readily apparent from other sources. Actual results, under conditions and circumstances different from those assumed, may differ from estimates. The impact of, and any associated risks related to, estimates and assumptions are discussed within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, if applicable, where estimates and assumptions affect the Company’s reported and expected financial results. The Company believes that accounting for property, plant and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets, pension benefit plans, contingencies and litigation related to asbestos liability, and income taxes involves the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Property, Plant and Equipment The net carrying amount of property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) at December 31, 2015 totaled $3 billion, representing 31% of total assets. Depreciation expense during 2015 totaled $323 million, representing approximately 6% of total costs of goods sold. Given the significance of PP&E and associated depreciation to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the determinations of an asset’s cost basis and its economic useful life are considered to be critical accounting estimates. Cost Basis—PP&E is recorded at cost, which is generally objectively quantifiable when assets are purchased individually. However, when assets are purchased in groups, or as part of a business, costs assigned to PP&E are based on an estimate of fair value of each asset at the date of acquisition. These estimates are based on assumptions about asset condition, remaining useful life and market conditions, among others. The Company frequently employs expert appraisers to aid in allocating cost among assets purchased as a group. Included in the cost basis of PP&E are those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. Significant judgment is needed to determine which costs should be capitalized under these criteria and which costs should be expensed as a repair or maintenance expenditure. For example, the Company frequently incurs various costs related to its existing glass melting furnaces and forming machines and must make a determination of which costs, if any, to capitalize. The Company relies on the experience and expertise of its operations and engineering staff to make reasonable and consistent judgments regarding increases in useful lives or capacity of PP&E. Estimated Useful Life—PP&E is generally depreciated using the straight-line method, which deducts equal amounts of the cost of each asset from earnings each period over its estimated economic useful life. Economic useful life is the duration of time an asset is expected to be productively employed by the Company, which may be less than its physical life. Management’s assumptions regarding the following factors, among others, affect the determination of estimated economic useful life: wear and tear, product and process obsolescence, technical standards, and changes in market demand. The estimated economic useful life of an asset is monitored to determine its appropriateness, especially in light of changed business circumstances. For example, technological advances, excessive wear and tear, or changes in customers’ requirements may result in a shorter estimated useful life than originally anticipated. In these cases, the Company depreciates the remaining net book value over the new estimated remaining life, thereby increasing depreciation expense per year on a prospective basis. Likewise, if the estimated useful life is increased, the adjustment to the useful life decreases depreciation expense per year on a prospective basis. Changes in economic useful life assumptions did not have a material impact on the Company’s reported results in 2015, 2014 or 2013. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Property, Plant and Equipment—The Company tests for impairment of PP&E whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. PP&E held for use in the Company’s business is grouped for impairment testing at the lowest level for which cash flows can reasonably be 43 identified, typically a segment or a component of a segment. The Company evaluates the recoverability of PP&E based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes. If an asset group is considered impaired, the impairment loss to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the asset group’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value. PP&E held for sale is reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Impairment testing requires estimation of the fair value of PP&E based on the discounted value of projected future cash flows generated by the asset group. The assumptions underlying cash flow projections represent management’s best estimates at the time of the impairment review. Factors that management must estimate include, among other things: industry and market conditions, sales volume and prices, production costs and inflation. Changes in key assumptions or actual conditions which differ from estimates could result in an impairment charge. The Company uses reasonable and supportable assumptions when performing impairment reviews and cannot predict the occurrence of future events and circumstances that could result in impairment charges. Goodwill –Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as of October 1 (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) using a two-step process. Step 1 compares the business enterprise value (“BEV”) of each reporting unit with its carrying value. The BEV is computed based on estimated future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third-party buyer. If the BEV is less than the carrying value for any reporting unit, then Step 2 must be performed. Step 2 compares the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of goodwill. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value will be recorded as an impairment loss. The calculations of the BEV in Step 1 and the implied fair value of goodwill in Step 2 are based on significant unobservable inputs, such as projected future cash flows of the reporting units, discount rates, and terminal business value, and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s projected future cash flows incorporates management’s best estimates of the expected future results including, but not limited to, price trends, customer demand, material costs, asset replacement costs and any other known factors. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is the operating segment or one level below the operating segment, also known as a component. Two or more components of an operating segment shall be aggregated into a single reporting unit if the components have similar economic characteristics, based on an assessment of various factors. The Company has determined that the Europe and North America segments are reporting units. The Company aggregated the components of the Latin America and Asia Pacific segments into single reporting units equal to the reportable segments. The aggregation of the components of these segments was based on their economic similarity as determined by the Company using a number of quantitative and qualitative factors, including gross margins, the manner in which the Company operates the business, the consistent nature of products, services, production processes, customers and methods of distribution, as well as the level of shared resources and assets between the components. During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company completed its annual impairment testing and determined that no impairment of goodwill existed. Goodwill at December 31, 2015 totaled $2.5 billion, representing 26% of total assets. The Company has four reporting units of which three of the reporting units have goodwill and include; $840 million of recorded goodwill to the Company’s Europe segment, $624 million of recorded goodwill to the Company’s Latin America segment and $1 billion of recorded goodwill to the Company’s North America segment. The testing performed as of October 1, 2015, indicated a significant excess of BEV over book value for North America. Both Europe and Latin America exceeded their carrying values by approximately 11% and 20%, respectively, and are determined to be the reporting units having the greatest risk of future impairment if actual results fall modestly short of expectations. If the Company’s projected future cash flows were substantially lower, or if the assumed weighted average cost of capital was substantially higher, the testing performed as of October 1, 2015, may have indicated an impairment of one or more of these reporting units and, as a result, the related goodwill may also have been impaired. Any impairment charges that the Company may take in the future could be material to its consolidated results of operations and financial condition. However, less significant changes in projected future cash flows or the assumed weighted average cost of capital would not have indicated an impairment. For example, if projected future cash flows had been decreased by 5%, or if the weighted average 44 cost of capital had been increased by 5%, or both, the resulting lower BEV's would still have exceeded the book value of each of these reporting units. During the time subsequent to the annual evaluation, and at December 31, 2015, the Company considered whether any events and/or changes in circumstances had resulted in the likelihood that the goodwill of any of its reporting units may have been impaired and has determined that no such events have occurred. The Company will monitor conditions throughout 2016 that might significantly affect the projections and variables used in the impairment test to determine if a review prior to October 1 may be appropriate. If the results of impairment testing confirm that a write down of goodwill is necessary, then the Company will record a charge in the fourth quarter of 2016, or earlier if appropriate. In the event the Company would be required to record a significant write down of goodwill, the charge would have a material adverse effect on reported results of operations and net worth. Other Long-Lived Assets - Intangibles – Other long-lived assets consist primarily of purchased customer relationships intangibles and are amortized using the accelerated amortization method over their estimated useful lives. The Company reviews these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. In the event that a decline in fair value of an asset occurs, and the decline in value is considered to be other than temporary, an impairment loss is recognized. The test for impairment would require the Company to make estimates about fair value, which may be determined based on discounted cash flows, third party appraisals or other methods that provide appropriate estimates of value. The Company continually monitors the carrying value of their assets. Pension Benefit Plans Significant Estimates—The determination of pension obligations and the related pension expense or credits to operations involves significant estimates. The most significant estimates are the discount rate used to calculate the actuarial present value of benefit obligations and the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets. The Company uses discount rates based on yields of high quality fixed rate debt securities at the end of the year. At December 31, 2015, the weighted average discount rate was 4.43% and 3.82% for U.S. and non-U.S. plans, respectively. The Company uses an expected long-term rate of return on assets that is based on both past performance of the various plans’ assets and estimated future performance of the assets. Due to the nature of the plans’ assets and the volatility of debt and equity markets, actual returns may vary significantly from year to year. The Company refers to average historical returns over longer periods (up to 10 years) in determining its expected rates of return because short-term fluctuations in market values do not reflect the rates of return the Company expects to achieve based upon its long-term investing strategy. For purposes of determining pension charges and credits in 2015, the Company’s estimated weighted average expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is 8.00% for U.S. plans and 7.21% for non-U.S. plans compared to 8.00% for U.S. plans and 7.23% for non-U.S. plans in 2014. The Company recorded pension expense from continuing operations of $24 million, $19 million, and $60 million for the U.S. plans in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $7 million, $24 million, and $41 million for the non-U.S. plans in 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively from its principal defined benefit pension plans. Depending on currency translation rates, the Company expects to record approximately $29 million of total pension expense for the full year of 2016. The 2016 pension expense will reflect a 7.5% expected long-term rate of return for the U.S. assets. Future effects on reported results of operations depend on economic conditions and investment performance. For example, a one-half percentage point change in the actuarial assumption regarding discount rates or in the expected rate of return used to calculate plan liabilities would result in a change of approximately $8 million and $15 million, respectively, in the pretax pension expense for the full year 2016. Recognition of Funded Status—The Company recognizes the funded status of each pension benefit plan on the balance sheet. The funded status of each plan is measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and actuarially calculated benefit obligations as of the balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are accumulated in Other Comprehensive Income and the portion of each plan that exceeds 10% of the greater of that plan’s assets or projected benefit obligation is amortized to income on a straight-line basis over the average 45 remaining service period of employees still accruing benefits or the expected life of participants not accruing benefits if all, or almost all, of the plan’s participants are no longer accruing benefits. Contingencies and Litigation Related to Asbestos Liability The Company conducts a comprehensive legal review of its asbestos-related liabilities and costs annually in connection with finalizing and reporting its annual results of operations, unless significant changes in trends or new developments warrant an earlier review. As part of its annual comprehensive legal review, the Company provides historical claims filing data to a third party consultant with expertise in predicting future claims filings based on actuarial inputs, such as the impact of disease incidence and mortality. The Company uses these estimates of total future claims, along with its legal judgment regarding an estimation of future disposition costs and related legal costs, as inputs to develop a reasonable estimate of probable liability. If the results of the annual comprehensive legal review indicate that the existing amount of the accrued liability is lower (higher) than its reasonably estimable asbestos-related costs, then the Company will record an appropriate charge (credit) to the Company’s results of operations to increase (decrease) the accrued liability. The significant assumptions and legal judgments underlying the material components of the Company’s accrual are: a) settlements will continue to be limited almost exclusively to claimants who were exposed to the Company’s asbestos-containing insulation prior to its exit from that business in 1958; b) claims will continue to be resolved primarily under the Company’s administrative claims agreements or on terms comparable to those set forth in those agreements; c) the incidence of serious asbestos-related disease cases and claiming patterns against the Company for such cases do not change materially; d) the Company is substantially able to defend itself successfully at trial and on appeal; e) the number and timing of additional co-defendant bankruptcies do not change significantly the assets available to participate in the resolution of cases in which the Company is a defendant; and f) co-defendants with substantial resources and assets continue to participate significantly in the resolution of future asbestos lawsuits and claims. As noted above, the Company’s asbestos-related liability is based on a projection of new claims that will eventually be filed against the Company and the estimated average disposition cost of these claims and related legal costs. Changes in the significant assumptions noted above have the potential to impact these key factors, which are critical to the estimation of the Company’s asbestos-related liability. If trends relating to the Company’s actual claims filings materially differ, up or down, from the amounts predicted, the total number of estimated claims indicated by future actuarial analyses could change significantly. Significant changes in the total number of predicted claims could impact the total predicted asbestos-related liability, which in turn could result in a material charge or credit to the Company’s results of operations. The Company uses historical data for both indemnity and related legal costs, as well as its legal judgment and expectations about future inflationary and deflationary drivers, to predict the estimated disposition cost per claim and the legal costs for the remainder of the litigation. If trends relating to the actual per claim cost differ materially, up or down, from the previously estimated amount, the Company may in the future revise its prediction of per claim cost. The same may also be true with respect to legal costs. Significant changes in the projected cost per claim or legal costs could impact the total predicted asbestos-related liability, which in turn could result in a material charge or credit to the Company’s results of operations. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that it will incur a loss for its asbestos-related liabilities in excess of the amount currently recognized, which is $817 million as of December 31, 2015. The Company estimates that reasonably possible losses could be as high as $950 million. This estimate of additional reasonably possible loss reflects a legal judgment about the number and cost of potential future claims. The Company believes this estimate is consistent with the level of variability it has experienced when comparing actual results 46 to recent near-term projections. However, it is also possible that the ultimate asbestos-related liability could be above this estimate. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes as required by general accounting principles under which management judgment is required in determining income tax expense and the related balance sheet amounts. This judgment includes estimating and analyzing historical and projected future operating results, the reversal of taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and the ultimate outcome of uncertain income tax positions. Actual income taxes paid may vary from estimates, depending upon changes in income tax laws, actual results of operations, and the final audit of tax returns by taxing authorities. Tax assessments may arise several years after tax returns have been filed. Changes in the estimates and assumptions used for calculating income tax expense and potential differences in actual results from estimates could have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities measured using enacted tax rates and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined separately for each tax jurisdiction in which the Company conducts its operations or otherwise incurs taxable income or losses. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realization of deferred tax assets depends on the ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryback or carryforward periods provided for in the tax law for each applicable tax jurisdiction. The Company considers the following possible sources of taxable income when assessing the realization of deferred tax assets: • future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences; • future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards; • taxable income in prior carryback years; and • tax planning strategies The assessment regarding whether a valuation allowance is required or should be adjusted also considers all available positive and negative evidence, including but not limited to: • nature, frequency, and severity of recent losses; • duration of statutory carryforward periods; • historical experience with tax attributes expiring unused; and • near- and medium-term financial outlook. The weight given to the positive and negative evidence is commensurate with the extent to which the evidence may be objectively verified. Accordingly, it is difficult to conclude a valuation allowance is not required when there is significant objective and verifiable negative evidence, such as cumulative losses in recent years. The Company uses the actual results for the last three years and current year anticipated results as the primary measure of cumulative losses in recent years. The evaluation of deferred tax assets requires judgment in assessing the likely future tax consequences of events recognized in the financial statements or tax returns and future profitability. The recognition of deferred tax assets represents the Company’s best estimate of those future events. Changes in the current estimates, due to unanticipated events or otherwise, could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. In certain foreign jurisdictions, the Company’s analysis indicates that it has cumulative losses in recent years. This is considered significant negative evidence which is objective and verifiable and, therefore, difficult to overcome. However, the cumulative loss position is not solely determinative and, accordingly, the Company 47 considers all other available positive and negative evidence in its analysis. Based on its analysis, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the portion of deferred tax assets where based on the weight of available evidence it is unlikely to realize those deferred tax assets. The utilization of tax attributes to offset taxable income reduces the overall level of deferred tax assets subject to a valuation allowance. Additionally, the Company’s recorded effective tax rate is lower than the applicable statutory tax rate, due primarily to income earned in jurisdictions for which a valuation allowance is recorded. The effective tax rate will approach the statutory tax rate in periods after valuation allowances are released. In the period in which valuation allowances are released, the Company will record a material tax benefit, which could result in a negative effective tax rate. ITEM 7A. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market risks relating to the Company’s operations result primarily from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in interest rates, and changes in commodity prices, principally energy and soda ash. The Company uses certain derivative instruments to mitigate a portion of the risk associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates. The Company also uses certain derivative instruments to mitigate a portion of the risk associated with fluctuating energy prices in its North American region. These instruments carry varying degrees of counterparty credit risk. To mitigate this risk, the Company has defined a financial counterparty policy that established criteria to select qualified counterparties based on credit ratings and CDC spreads. The policy also limits the exposure with individual counterparties. The Company monitors these exposures quarterly. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk Earnings of operations outside the United States A substantial portion of the Company’s operations are conducted by subsidiaries outside the U.S. The primary international markets served by the Company’s subsidiaries are in Canada, Australia, China, Latin America (principally Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico), and Europe (principally France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, and the United Kingdom,). In general, revenues earned and costs incurred by the Company’s major international operations are denominated in their respective local currencies. Consequently, the Company’s reported financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or highly inflationary economic conditions in the international markets in which the Company’s subsidiaries operate. When the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the reported U.S. dollar value of local currency earnings generally decreases; when the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the reported U.S. dollar value of local currency earnings generally increases. For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, the Company did not have any significant foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency was the U.S. dollar. Borrowings not denominated in the functional currency Because the Company’s subsidiaries operate within their local economic environment, the Company believes it is appropriate to finance those operations with borrowings denominated in the local currency to the extent practicable where debt financing is desirable or necessary. This strategy mitigates the risk of reported losses or gains in the event the foreign currency strengthens or weakens against the U.S. dollar. Considerations which influence the amount of such borrowings include long- and short-term business plans, tax implications, and the availability of borrowings with acceptable interest rates and terms. Available excess funds of a subsidiary may be redeployed through intercompany loans to other subsidiaries for debt repayment, capital investment, or other cash requirements. The intercompany loans give rise to foreign currency exchange rate risk, which the Company mitigates through the use of forward exchange contracts that effectively swap the intercompany loan and related interest to the appropriate local currency. The Company believes the near term exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk of its foreign currency risk sensitive instruments was not material at December 31, 2015 and 2014. 48 Principal by expected maturity $ Avg. principal outstanding . . . . . $ 2,475 Avg. interest rate 217 Long-term debt at fixed rate: Principal by expected maturity $ Avg. principal outstanding . . . . . $ 2,984 Avg. interest rate 11 Interest Rate Risk The Company’s interest expense is most sensitive to changes in the general level of interest rates applicable to the term loans under its Secured Credit Agreement (see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information). The Company’s interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on net income and cash flow, while minimizing interest payments and expense. To achieve this objective, the Company regularly evaluates its mix of fixed and floating-rate debt, and, from time to time, may enter into interest rate swap agreements. The following table provides information about the Company’s interest rate sensitivity related to its significant debt obligations at December 31, 2015. The table presents principal cash flows and related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity date. 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 There- after Total Fair Value at 12/31/2015 (Dollars in millions) Long-term debt at variable rate: $ 78 $ 101 $ 100 $ 1,543 $ 545 $ 2,584 $ 2,584 $ 2,328 $ 2,239 $ 2,138 $ 1,317 $ 273 2.37 % 2.37 % 2.37 % 2.37 % 2.37 % 2.37 % $ 7 $ 258 $ 8 $ 550 $ 2,156 $ 2,989 $ 3,183 $ 2,984 $ 2,734 $ 2,734 $ 2,191 $ 1,824 5.92 % 5.92 % 5.74 % 5.74 % 5.50 % 5.62 % The Company believes the near term exposure to interest rate risk of its debt obligations has not changed materially since December 31, 2015. In addition, the determination of pension obligations and the related pension expense or credits to operations involves significant estimates. Future funding requirements for the Company’s pension plans will depend largely on actual asset returns and future actuarial assumptions, such as discount rates, and can vary significantly. The discount rate is a significant estimate that is used to calculate the actuarial present value of benefit obligations and is based on yields of high quality fixed rate debt securities at the end of the year. For example, a one-half percentage point change in the actuarial assumption regarding discount rates or in the expected rate of return used to calculate plan liabilities would result in a change of approximately $8 million and $15 million, respectively, in the pretax pension expense for the full year 2016. Commodity Price Risk The Company has exposure to commodity price risk, principally related to energy. In North America, the Company enters into commodity forward contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements, the objectives of which are to limit the effects of fluctuations in the future market price paid for natural gas and the related volatility in cash flows. The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market and related price risk and periodically enters into commodity forward contracts in order to hedge a portion of its usage requirements. The majority of the sales volume in North America is tied to customer contracts that contain provisions that pass the price of natural gas to the customer. In certain of these contracts, the customer has the option of fixing the natural gas price component for a specified period of time. At December 31, 2015, the Company had entered into commodity forward contracts covering approximately 7,300,000 MM BTUs, primarily related to customer requests to lock the price of natural gas. In Europe, the Company enters into fixed price contracts for a significant amount of its energy requirements. These contracts typically have terms of 3 years or less. 49 The Company believes the near term exposure to commodity price risk of its commodity forward contracts was not material at December 31, 2015. Forward Looking Statements This document contains "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933. Forward-looking statements reflect the Company's current expectations and projections about future events at the time, and thus involve uncertainty and risk. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “may,” “plan,” “estimate,” “intend,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and the negatives of these words and other similar expressions generally identify forward looking statements. It is possible the Company's future financial performance may differ from expectations due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to the following: (1) the Company’s ability to integrate the Vitro Business in a timely and cost effective manner, to maintain on existing terms the permits, licenses and other approvals required for the Vitro Business to operate as currently operated, and to realize the expected synergies from the Vitro Acquisition, (2) risks related to the impact of integration of the Vitro Acquisition on earnings and cash flow, (3) risks associated with the significant transaction costs and additional indebtedness that the Company incurred in financing the Vitro Acquisition, (4) the Company’s ability to realize expected growth opportunities and cost savings from the Vitro Acquisition, (5) foreign currency fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar, specifically the Euro, Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Colombian peso and Australian dollar, (6) changes in capital availability or cost, including interest rate fluctuations and the ability of the Company to refinance debt at favorable terms, (7) the general political, economic and competitive conditions in markets and countries where the Company has operations, including uncertainties related to economic and social conditions, disruptions in capital markets, disruptions in the supply chain, competitive pricing pressures, inflation or deflation, and changes in tax rates and laws, (8) consumer preferences for alternative forms of packaging, (9) cost and availability of raw materials, labor, energy and transportation, (10) the Company’s ability to manage its cost structure, including its success in implementing restructuring plans and achieving cost savings, (11) consolidation among competitors and customers, (12) the ability of the Company to acquire businesses and expand plants, integrate operations of acquired businesses and achieve expected synergies, (13) unanticipated expenditures with respect to environmental, safety and health laws, (14) the Company’s ability to further develop its sales, marketing and product development capabilities, (15) the timing and occurrence of events which are beyond the control of the Company, including any expropriation of the Company’s operations, floods and other natural disasters, events related to asbestos-related claims, (16) the Company’s ability to accurately estimate its total asbestos-related liability, and (17) the Company’s ability to successfully remediate the material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting, and the other risk factors discussed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2015 and any subsequently filed Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. It is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors. Any forward-looking statements in this document are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from expectations. While the Company continually reviews trends and uncertainties affecting the Company's results of operations and financial condition, the Company does not assume any obligation to update or supplement any particular forward-looking statements contained in this document. 50 ITEM 8.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Owens-Illinois, Inc. as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of results of operations, comprehensive income, share owners' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Owens-Illinois, Inc. at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements and the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 have been restated to correct an error related to the Company’s determination of liabilities related to probable losses for unasserted asbestos claims. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Owens-Illinois, Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated February 16, 2016, except for the effect of the material weakness described in the seventh paragraph as to which the date is May 13, 2016, expressed an adverse opinion thereon. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Toledo, Ohio February 16, 2016, except for Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements, as to which the date is May 13, 2016 52 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements In April 2016, the Company determined that it had incorrectly applied the provisions of ASC 450, Contingencies, in measuring its liability related to unasserted claims and related legal costs arising from the Company’s previous sale of products containing asbestos (see Note 12). Beginning in 2003, the Company had estimated its asbestos-related liability based on an analysis of how far in the future it could reasonably estimate the number of claims it would receive. Subsequent to the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (“2015 Annual Report”), the Company has concluded that its method for estimating its future asbestos-related liability was not consistent with ASC 450. Therefore, with the assistance of an external consultant, and utilizing a model with actuarial inputs, the Company has developed a new method for reasonably estimating its total asbestos-related liability. See Note 12 for additional detail. Using the new model, the Company calculated a total asbestos-related liability of $817 million as of December 31, 2015, which is $295 million higher than previously calculated. The revised liability is reflected in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2015. Using the same model with actuarial inputs, the Company also revised its total asbestos-related liability as of December 31, 2014 to $939 million. In light of the foregoing, the Company is amending its 2015 Annual Report to restate the financial statements contained therein to reflect the effects of its new method for estimating its total asbestos-related liability and to make certain corresponding disclosures related thereto. The Company continues to believe that its ultimate asbestos-related liability cannot be estimated with certainty. As part of its comprehensive annual review, the Company will in the future estimate its total asbestos-related liability and such reviews may result in adjustments to the liability. The Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Results of Operations, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Share Owners’ Equity, and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, Notes 2, 10, 12, 15, 17, 20 and 22, as well as Financial Statement Schedule II were updated to reflect the restatement. 59 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Consolidated Statements The consolidated financial statements of Owens-Illinois, Inc. (the “Company”) include the accounts of its subsidiaries. Newly acquired subsidiaries have been included in the consolidated financial statements from dates of acquisition. The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in which it has a significant ownership interest, generally 20% to 50%. Other investments are accounted for at cost. The Company monitors other than temporary declines in fair value and records reductions in carrying values when appropriate. Nature of Operations The Company is a leading manufacturer of glass container products. The Company’s principal product lines are glass containers for the food and beverage industries. The Company has glass container operations located in 23 countries. The principal markets and operations for the Company’s products are in Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates, at which time the Company would revise its estimates accordingly. 62 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Any related translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in share owners’ equity. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes sales, net of estimated discounts and allowances, when the title to the products and risk of loss are transferred to customers. Provisions for rebates to customers are provided in the same period that the related sales are recorded. Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling costs are included with cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Results of Operations. Stock-Based Compensation The Company has various stock-based compensation plans consisting of stock option grants and restricted share awards. Costs resulting from all share-based compensation plans are required to be recognized in the financial statements. A public entity is required to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the required service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the required service. Cash The Company defines “cash” as cash and time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are included in accounts payable. Accounts Receivable Receivables are stated at amounts estimated by management to be the net realizable value. The Company charges off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent based upon age or customer circumstances that amounts will not be collected. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through charges to the provision for bad debts. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a periodic basis. The evaluation includes historical trends in collections and write-offs, management’s judgment of the probability of collecting accounts and management’s evaluation of business risk. Inventory Valuation Inventories are valued at the lower of average costs or market. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is evaluated annually, as of October 1, for impairment or more frequently if an impairment indicator exists. Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets Intangible assets are amortized over the expected useful life of the asset. Amortization expense directly attributed to the manufacturing of the Company’s products is included in cost of goods sold. Amortization expense related to non-manufacturing activities is included in selling and administrative and other. The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and other long-lived assets based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that impairment may exist. If impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) is carried at cost and includes expenditures for new facilities and equipment and those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. In general, depreciation is computed using the straight-line method and recorded over the estimated useful life of the asset. Factory machinery and equipment is depreciated over periods ranging from 5 to 25 years with the majority of such assets (principally glass-melting furnaces and forming machines) depreciated over 7 to 15 years. Buildings and building equipment are depreciated over periods ranging from 10 to 50 years. Depreciation expense directly attributed to the manufacturing of the Company’s products is included in cost of goods sold. Depreciation expense related to non-manufacturing activities is included in selling and administrative. Depreciation expense includes the amortization of assets recorded under capital leases. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs assigned to PP&E of acquired businesses are based on 63 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The Company evaluates the recoverability of PP&E based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that impairment may exist. If impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value. Derivative Instruments The Company uses forward exchange contracts, options and commodity forward contracts to manage risks generally associated with foreign exchange rate and commodity market volatility. Derivative financial instruments are included on the balance sheet at fair value. When appropriate, derivative instruments are designated as and are effective as hedges, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. If the underlying hedged transaction ceases to exist, all changes in fair value of the related derivatives that have not been settled are recognized in current earnings. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes and is not a party to leveraged derivatives. Cash flows from short-term forward exchange contracts not designated as hedges are classified as a financing activity. Cash flows of commodity forward contracts are classified as operating activities. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Generally accepted accounting principles defines a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop assumptions. The carrying amounts reported for cash and short-term loans approximate fair value. In addition, carrying amounts approximate fair value for certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates. Fair values for the Company’s significant fixed rate debt obligations are generally based on published market quotations. The Company’s derivative assets and liabilities consist of natural gas forwards and foreign exchange option and forward contracts. The Company uses an income approach to valuing these contracts. Natural gas forward rates and foreign exchange rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models. These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds, and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications of prior years’ data have been made to conform to the current year presentation. New Accounting Standards Revenue from Contracts with Customers - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which delayed by one year the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard, which will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting. 64 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs - In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge (asset). In the third quarter 2015, the Company elected to adopt this new guidance. As a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations for any period. Previously, the Company had classified these debt issuance costs as an asset in “other assets”. Accordingly, the Company has revised the classification to report these debt issuance costs under the “long-term debt” caption on the balance sheet. For the period ended December 31, 2014, the total of debt issuance costs that was previously classified as “other assets” was $15 million. Business Combinations – In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments”. This standard allows for the acquirer to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting periods in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The Company elected to adopt this new guidance as of the third quarter of 2015. Deferred Taxes – In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes”. This standard requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The Company elected to adopt this new guidance prospectively in the fourth quarter of 2015. Prior periods were not retrospectively adjusted. 2. Segment Information The Company has four reportable segments based on its geographic locations: Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific. In connection with the Company’s acquisition (the “Vitro Acquisition”) of the food and beverage glass container business of Vitro S.A.B. de C.V. and its subsidiaries as conducted in the United States, Mexico and Bolivia (the “Vitro Business”) on September 1, 2015 (see Note 19), the Company has renamed the former South America segment to the Latin America segment. This change in segment name was made to reflect the addition of the Mexican and Bolivian operations from the Vitro Acquisition into the former South America segment. The acquired Vitro food and beverage glass container distribution business located in the United States is included in the North American operating segment. These four segments are aligned with the Company’s internal approach to managing, reporting, and evaluating performance of its global glass operations. Certain assets and activities not directly related to one of the regions or to glass manufacturing are reported with Retained corporate costs and other. These include licensing, equipment manufacturing, global engineering, and certain equity investments. Retained corporate costs and other also includes certain headquarters administrative and facilities costs and certain incentive compensation and other benefit plan costs that are global in nature and are not allocable to the reportable segments. The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is segment operating profit, which consists of consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations as well as certain retained corporate costs. The Company’s management uses segment operating profit, in combination with selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. Segment operating profit for reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided. 65 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

In 2013, changes were made to the VeMe joint venture agreement that resulted in the Company relinquishing control of the joint venture and, therefore, deconsolidating the entity. No gain or loss was recognized related to the deconsolidation as the fair value of the entity was equal to the carrying amount of the entity’s assets and liabilities. The fair value, which the Company classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, was computed using a discounted cash flow analysis based on projected future cash flows of the joint venture.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts The Company made purchases of approximately $161 million and $188 million from equity affiliates in 2015 and 2014, respectively, and owed approximately $66 million and $79 million to equity affiliates as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. There is a difference of approximately $18 million as of December 31, 2015, between the amount at which certain investments are carried and the amount of underlying equity in net assets. The portion of the difference related to inventory or amortizable assets is amortized as a reduction of the equity earnings. The remaining difference is considered goodwill. 5.

Goodwill for the Asia Pacific segment is $0 and net of accumulated impairment losses of $1,135 million as of December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as of October 1 (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) using a two-step process. Step 1 compares the business enterprise value (“BEV”) of each reporting unit with its carrying value. The BEV is computed based on estimated future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third-party buyer. If the BEV is less than the carrying value for any reporting unit, then Step 2 must be performed. Step 2 compares the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of goodwill. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value will be recorded as an impairment loss. The calculations of the BEV in Step 1 and the implied fair value of goodwill in Step 2 are based on significant unobservable inputs, such as price trends, customer demand, material costs, discount rates and asset replacement costs, and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company completed its annual impairment testing and determined that no impairment existed. 69 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts software was $19 million, $17 million and $14 million for 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Estimated amortization related to capitalized software through 2020 is as follows: 2016, $17 million; 2017, $16 million; 2018, $15 million; 2019, $13 million; and 2020, $11 million. 7. Derivative Instruments The Company has certain derivative assets and liabilities which consist of natural gas forwards and foreign exchange option and forward contracts. The Company uses an income approach to value these contracts. Natural gas forward rates and foreign exchange rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models. These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds, and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values. Commodity Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges In North America, the Company enters into commodity forward contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements, the objectives of which are to limit the effects of fluctuations in the future market price paid for natural gas and the related volatility in cash flows. The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market and related price risk and periodically enters into commodity forward contracts in order to hedge a portion of its usage requirements. The majority of the sales volume in North America is tied to customer contracts that contain provisions that pass the price of natural gas to the customer. In certain of these contracts, the customer has the option of fixing the natural gas price component for a specified period of time. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had entered into commodity forward contracts covering approximately 7,300,000 MM BTUs and 450,000 MM BTUs, respectively, primarily related to customer requests to lock the price of natural gas. The Company accounts for the above forward contracts as cash flow hedges at December 31, 2015 and recognizes them on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as, and meets the required criteria for, a cash flow hedge is recorded in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income component of share owners’ equity (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the underlying hedged item affects earnings. An unrecognized loss of $4 million at December 31, 2015 and an unrecognized loss of less than $1 million at December 31, 2014 related to the commodity forward contracts were included in Accumulated OCI, and will be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve to twenty-four months. Any material portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge that is deemed to be ineffective is recognized in current earnings. The ineffectiveness related to these natural gas hedges for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was not material. The effect of the commodity forward contracts on the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 is as follows: Amount of gain (loss) Recognized in OCI on Commodity Forward Contracts (Effective Portion) 2014 2015 2013 $ (4) $ 3 $ 1 $ Amount of gain (loss) Reclassified from Accumulated OCI into Income (reported in cost of goods sold) (Effective Portion) 2014 2 $ $ 2015 (1) 2013 (1) Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts and not Designated as Hedging Instruments The Company may enter into short-term forward exchange or option agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in 71 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. The Company may also use forward exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency risk for receivables and payables, including intercompany receivables, payables and loans, not denominated in, or indexed to, their functional currencies. The Company records these short-term forward exchange agreements on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value are recognized in current earnings. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had outstanding forward exchange and option agreements denominated in various currencies covering the equivalent of approximately $790 million and $524 million, respectively, related primarily to intercompany transactions and loans. The effect of the foreign exchange derivative contracts on the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 is as follows: Location of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Foreign Exchange Contracts Other expense Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Foreign Exchange Contracts 2014 2013 2015 $ 10 $ (8) $ (28) Balance Sheet Classification The Company records the fair values of derivative financial instruments on the balance sheet as follows: (a) receivables if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity within one year, (b) deposits, receivables, and other assets if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity after one year, and (c) other accrued liabilities or other liabilities (current) if the instrument has a negative fair value and maturity within one year.

Restructuring Accruals, Asset Impairments and Other Costs Related to Closed Facilities The Company continually reviews its manufacturing footprint and operating cost structure and may decide to close operations or reduce headcount to gain efficiencies, integrate acquired operations, reduce future expenses and other market factors. The Company incurs costs associated with these actions including employee severance and benefits, other exit costs such as those related to contract terminations, and asset impairment charges. The Company also may incur other costs related to closed facilities including environmental remediation, clean up, dismantling and preparation for sale or other disposition. 72 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts The Company accounts for restructuring and other costs under applicable provisions of generally accepted accounting principles. Charges for employee severance and related benefits are generally accrued based on contractual arrangements with employees or their representatives. Other exit costs are accrued based on the estimated cost to settle related contractual arrangements. Estimated environmental remediation costs are accrued when specific claims have been received or are probable of being received. The Company’s decisions to curtail selected production capacity have resulted in write downs of certain long-lived assets to the extent their carrying amounts exceeded fair value or fair value less cost to sell. The Company classified the significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of the impaired assets as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as set forth in the general accounting principles for fair value measurements. When a decision is made to take these actions, the Company manages and accounts for them programmatically apart from the on-going operations of the business. Information related to major programs (as in the case of the European Asset Optimization and Asia Pacific Restructuring programs below) are presented separately. Minor initiatives are presented on a combined basis as Other Restructuring Actions. These restructuring initiatives taken by the Company are not related to the European Asset Optimization program or the Asia Pacific restructuring plan. When charges related to major programs are completed, remaining accrual balances are classified with Other Restructuring Actions. European Asset Optimization Since 2011, the Company has implemented the European Asset Optimization program to increase the efficiency and capability of its European operations and to better align its European manufacturing footprint with market and customer needs. This program involved making additional investments in certain facilities and addressing assets with higher cost structures. As part of this program, the Company recorded charges of $0 million in 2015, $1 million in 2014 and $16 million in 2013 for employee costs, write-down of assets, and environmental remediation related to decisions to close furnaces and manufacturing facilities in Europe. The Company does not expect to execute any further actions under this program and recorded total cumulative charges of $127 million. Asia Pacific Restructuring Since 2011, the Company has implemented a restructuring plan in its Asia Pacific segment, primarily related to aligning its supply base with lower demand in the region. As part of this plan, the Company recorded charges of $5 million, $73 million and $49 million for the years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, for employee costs, write-down of assets, and pension charges related to furnace closures and additional restructuring activities.

Pension Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits Pension Benefit Plans The Company has defined benefit pension plans covering a substantial number of employees located in the United States and several other non-U.S. jurisdictions. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and on length of service for hourly employees. The Company’s policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. The Company’s defined benefit pension plans use a December 31 measurement date. The following tables relate to the Company’s principal defined benefit pension plans. 74 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

This action required an obligation remeasurement for the curtailment of benefits, which resulted in a reduction of the Company’s pension expense. Also in 2014, the Company settled a portion of the U.S. Salary Pension Plan pension obligation, which resulted in a settlement charge of $30 million and, in 2013, $8 million of special termination benefits were recorded in discontinued operations. On October 1, 2014, the Company settled the liability associated with its pension plan in the Netherlands, resulting in a settlement charge of approximately $35 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. Non-U.S. pension expense excludes $3 million and $6 million of pension settlement costs that were recorded in restructuring expense in 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Future benefits are assumed to increase in a manner consistent with past experience of the plans, which, to the extent benefits are based on compensation, includes assumed salary increases as presented above. For 2015, the Company’s weighted average expected long-term rate of return on assets was 8.0% for the U.S. plans and 7.21% for the non-U.S. plans. In developing this assumption, the Company evaluated input from its third party pension plan asset consultants, including their review of asset class return expectations and long- term inflation assumptions. The Company also considered its historical 10-year average return (through December 31, 2014), which was in line with the expected long-term rate of return assumption for 2015. It is the Company’s policy to invest pension plan assets in a diversified portfolio consisting of an array of asset classes within established target asset allocation ranges. The investment risk of the assets is limited by appropriate diversification both within and between asset classes. The assets for the U.S. plans are maintained in a group trust. The U.S. plans hold no individual assets other than the investment in the group trust. The assets of the group trust and the Company’s non-U.S. plans are primarily invested in a broad mix of domestic and international equities, domestic and international bonds, and real estate, subject to the target asset allocation ranges. The assets are managed with a view to ensuring that sufficient liquidity will be available to meet expected cash flow requirements. The investment valuation policy of the Company is to value investments at fair value. All investments are valued at their respective net asset values. Equity securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last reported sales price on their principal exchange on valuation date or official close for certain markets. Fixed income investments are valued by an independent pricing service. Investments in registered investment companies or collective pooled funds are valued at their respective net asset values. Short-term investments are stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The fair value of real estate is determined by periodic appraisals. The Company’s U.S. pension plan assets held in the group trust are classified as Level 2 assets in the fair value hierarchy. The total U.S. plan assets amounted to $1,909 million and $2,190 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In 2015, the U.S. plan assets consisted of approximately 62% equity securities, 30% debt securities, and 8% real estate. The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s non-U.S. pension plan assets at fair value as of December 31, 2015 and 2014: 2015 2014 Target Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Allocation Cash and cash equivalents . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 30 $ — $ — $ 14 $ — $ — Equity securities . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Participation is voluntary and participants’ contributions are based on their compensation. The Company matches contributions of participants, up to various limits, in substantially all plans. Company contributions to these plans amounted to $29 million in 2015, $19 million in 2014, and $16 million in 2013. Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions The Company provides retiree health care and life insurance benefits covering certain U.S. salaried and hourly employees, and substantially all employees in Canada. Benefits provided by the Company for hourly retirees are determined by collective bargaining. Employees are generally eligible for benefits upon retirement and completion of a specified number of years of creditable service. The Company uses a December 31 measurement date to measure its postretirement benefit obligations. 79 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

In determining the requirement for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial results of the legal entity or consolidated group recording the net deferred tax asset is considered, along with other positive and negative evidence. At December 31, 2015, before valuation allowance, the Company had unused foreign tax credits of $389 million expiring in 2017 through 2025, research tax credits of $14 million expiring from 2019 to 2035, and alternative minimum tax credits of $23 million which do not expire and which will be available to offset future U.S. Federal income tax. Approximately $145 million of the deferred tax assets related to operating and capital loss carryforwards can be carried over indefinitely, with the remaining $290 million expiring between 2016 and 2036. In certain jurisdictions, the Company’s analysis indicates that it has cumulative losses in recent years. This is considered significant negative evidence which is objective and verifiable and, therefore, difficult to overcome. However, the cumulative loss position is not solely determinative and, accordingly, the Company considers all other available positive and negative evidence in its analysis. Based on its analysis, the Company has recorded a 84 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts valuation allowance for the portion of deferred tax assets where based on the weight of available evidence it is unlikely to realize those deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s equity in the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which income taxes had not been provided approximated $2.5 billion. The Company intends to reinvest these earnings indefinitely in the non-U.S. operations and has not distributed any of these earnings to the U.S. in 2015, 2014 or 2013. It is not practicable to estimate the U.S. and foreign tax which would be payable should these earnings be distributed. Deferred taxes are provided for earnings of non-U.S. jurisdictions when the Company plans to remit those earnings. The Company has recognized tax benefits as a result of incentives in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions which expire in 2016. The Company records a liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions. The Company accrues interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as a component of its income tax expense.

The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the estimated liability could decrease up to $47 million within the next 12 months. This is primarily the result of audit settlements or statute expirations in several taxing jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in various tax jurisdictions in which it operates, including Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, China, Canada, Colombia, France, Germany, Indonesia, and Italy. The years under examination range from 2004 through 2013. The Company believes that there are no jurisdictions in which the outcome of unresolved issues or claims is likely to be material to the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company further believes that adequate provisions for all income tax uncertainties have been made. During 2015, the Company concluded income tax audits in several jurisdictions, including Argentina, Germany, Italy, Peru and Poland. 85 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

The proceeds from the Agreement were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the Previous Agreement and the 7.375% senior notes due 2016. The Company recorded $42 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the related write-off of unamortized finance fees in 2015. In connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015 (see Note 19), the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the Agreement, which provided for additional incremental availability under the incremental dollar cap in the Agreement of up to $1,250 million. In addition, in connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition, on September 1, 2015, the Company entered into the First Incremental Amendment to the Agreement (the “Incremental Amendment”) pursuant to which the Company incurred $1,250 million of senior secured incremental term loan facilities, comprised of (i) a $675 million term loan A facility (the “incremental term loan A facility”) on substantially the same terms and conditions (including as to maturity) as the term loan A facility in the Agreement and (ii) a $575 million term loan B facility (the 86 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts “incremental term loan B facility”) maturing seven years after the closing of the Vitro Acquisition using its incremental capacity under the Agreement. At December 31, 2015, the Agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 2 and the Incremental Amendment (the “Amended Agreement”), includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $600 million multicurrency revolving credit facility, a $1,575 million term loan A facility ($1,546 million net of debt issuance costs), and a €279 million term loan A facility ($301 million net of debt issuance costs), each of which has a final maturity date of April 22, 2020. The Amended Agreement also includes a $575 million term loan B facility ($563 million net of debt issuance costs) with a final maturity date of September 1, 2022. At December 31, 2015, the Company had unused credit of $872 million available under the Amended Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Amended Agreement at December 31, 2015 was 2.37%. The Amended Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, engage in certain affiliate transactions, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain subordinated debt obligations. The Amended Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Total Leverage Ratio, that requires the Company as of the last day of a fiscal quarter not to exceed a ratio of 4.0x calculated by dividing consolidated total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, by consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Amended Agreement. The maximum Total Leverage Ratio is subject to an increase of 0.5x for the four fiscal quarters commencing on and following the consummation of certain qualifying acquisitions as defined in the Amended Agreement. In connection with the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015, the Company elected to increase such maximum Total Leverage Ratio to 4.5x for the four fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2016. The Total Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Total Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum. On February 3, 2016, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the Amended Agreement, which provided for an increase in the maximum Total Leverage Ratio for purposes of the financial covenant in the Amended Agreement to 5.0x for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2016, 4.50x for the fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017, and stepping back down to 4.0x for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2017 and each fiscal quarter ending thereafter. Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4. In such an event, the Company could not request borrowings under the revolving facility, and all amounts outstanding under the Amended Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable. If an event of default occurs under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4 and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Amended Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities. As of December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Amended Agreement. In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow funds under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4 will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions. The interest rates on borrowings under the Amended Agreement are, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the Amended Agreement, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for the term loan A facility and the revolving credit facility is linked to the Company’s Total Leverage 87 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts Ratio and ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.25% to 0.75% for Base Rate loans. In addition, a facility fee is payable on the revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum linked to the Total Leverage Ratio. The applicable margin for the term loan B facility is 2.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and 1.75% for Base Rate loans. The incremental term loan B facility is subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. Borrowings under the Amended Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate and certain other excluded assets, of certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries. Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity investments in certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and, in the case of foreign borrowings, of stock of certain foreign subsidiaries. All borrowings under the Amended Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company for the term of the Amended Agreement. Also, in connection with the Vitro Acquisition, during August 2015, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $700 million that bear interest at 5.875% and are due August 15, 2023 (the “Senior Notes due 2023”) and senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 6.375% and are due August 15, 2025 (together with the Senior Notes due 2023, the “2015 Senior Notes”). The 2015 Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company‘s domestic subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the 2015 Senior Notes, after deducting the debt discount and debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $972 million and were used to finance, in part, the Vitro Acquisition. During December 2014, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $500 million that bear interest at 5.00% and are due January 15, 2022 (the “Senior Notes due 2022”). The Company also issued senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 5.375% and are due January 15, 2025 (together with the Senior Notes due 2022, the “2014 Senior Notes”). The 2014 Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company‘s domestic subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the 2014 Senior Notes, after deducting debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $790 million and were used to purchase in a tender offer $611 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.00% 2015 Exchangeable Senior Notes. The remaining balance of the Exchangeable Senior Notes was repaid in the second quarter of 2015. The Company has a €185 million European accounts receivable securitization program, which extends through September 2016, subject to periodic renewal of backup credit lines. Information related to the Company’s accounts receivable securitization program as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows: Balance (included in short-term loans) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ Weighted average interest rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 158 1.21 % 122 1.41 % The carrying amounts reported for the accounts receivable securitization program, and certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates, approximate fair value.

Contingencies Asbestos The Company is a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging bodily injury and death as a result of exposure to asbestos. From 1948 to 1958, one of the Company's former business units commercially produced and sold approximately $40 million of a high-temperature, calcium-silicate based pipe and block insulation material containing asbestos. The Company sold its insulation business unit at the end of April 1958. The typical asbestos personal injury lawsuit alleges various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability and seeks compensatory and, in some cases, punitive damages in various amounts (herein referred to as "asbestos claims"). The following table shows the approximate number of plaintiffs and claimants who had asbestos claims pending against the Company at the beginning of each listed year, the number of claims disposed of during that year, the year’s filings and the claims pending at the end of each listed year (eliminating duplicate filings): Pending at beginning of year . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Approximately 11% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages above the jurisdictional minimum up to, and including, $15 million or less, and 7% of plaintiffs specifically plead damages greater than $15 million but less than or equal to $100 million. As indicated by the foregoing summary, current pleading practice permits considerable variation in the assertion of monetary damages. The Company’s experience resolving hundreds of thousands of asbestos claims and lawsuits over an extended period demonstrates that the monetary relief alleged in a complaint bears little relevance to a claim’s merits or disposition value. Rather, the amount potentially recoverable is determined by such factors as the type and severity of the plaintiff’s asbestos disease, the plaintiff’s medical history and exposure to other disease-causing agents, the product identification evidence against the Company and other co- defendants, the defenses available to the Company and other co-defendants, the specific jurisdiction in which the claim is made, and the plaintiff’s firm representing the claimant. 89 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts In addition to the pending claims set forth above, the Company has claims-handling agreements in place with many plaintiffs’ counsel throughout the country. These agreements require evaluation and negotiation regarding whether particular claimants qualify under the criteria established by such agreements. The criteria for such claims include verification of a compensable illness and a reasonable probability of exposure to a product manufactured by the Company's former business unit during its manufacturing period ending in 1958. The Company has also been a defendant in other asbestos-related lawsuits or claims involving maritime workers, medical monitoring claimants, co-defendants and property damage claimants. Based upon its past experience, the Company believes that these categories of lawsuits and claims will not involve any material liability and they are not included in the above description of pending matters or in the following description of disposed matters. Since receiving its first asbestos claim, the Company as of December 31, 2015, has disposed of the asbestos claims of approximately 396,000 plaintiffs and claimants at an average indemnity payment per claim of approximately $9,200. The Company’s asbestos indemnity payments have varied on a per claim basis, and are expected to continue to vary considerably over time. Asbestos-related cash payments for 2015, 2014 and 2013 were $138 million, $148 million, and $158 million, respectively. The Company’s cash payments per claim disposed (inclusive of legal costs) were approximately $95,000, $81,000 and $93,000 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As discussed above, the Company’s objective is to achieve, where possible, resolution of asbestos claims pursuant to claims-handling agreements. Failure of claimants to meet certain medical and product exposure criteria in the Company’s administrative claims handling agreements has generally reduced the number of claims that would otherwise have been received by the Company in the tort system. In addition, certain court orders and legislative acts have reduced or eliminated the number of claims that the Company otherwise would have received by the Company in the tort system. These developments generally have had the effect of increasing the Company’s per-claim average indemnity payment over time. Beginning with the initial liability of $975 million established in 1993, the Company has accrued a total of approximately $4.9 billion through 2015, before insurance recoveries, for its asbestos-related liability. The Company’s estimates of its liability have been significantly affected by, among other factors, the volatility of asbestos-related litigation in the United States, the significant number of co-defendants that have filed for bankruptcy, the inherent uncertainty of future disease incidence and claiming patterns against the Company, the significant expansion of the defendants that are now sued in this litigation, and the continuing changes in the extent to which these defendants participate in the resolution of cases in which the Company is also a defendant. The Company continues to monitor trends that may affect its ultimate liability and analyze the developments and variables likely to affect the resolution of pending and future asbestos claims against the Company. The material components of the Company’s accrued liability are determined by the Company in connection with its annual comprehensive legal review and consist of the following estimates, to the extent it is probable that such liabilities have been incurred and can be reasonably estimated: (i) the liability for asbestos claims already asserted against the Company; (ii) the liability for asbestos claims not yet asserted against the Company; and (iii) the legal defense costs estimated to be incurred in connection with the claims already asserted and those claims the Company believes will be asserted. As noted above, the Company conducts a comprehensive legal review of its asbestos-related liabilities and costs annually in connection with finalizing and reporting its annual results of operations, unless significant changes in trends or new developments warrant an earlier review. As part of its annual comprehensive legal review, the Company provides historical claims filing data to a third party with expertise in determining the impact of disease incidence and mortality on future filing trends to develop information to assist the Company in estimating the total number of future claims to be filed. The Company uses this estimate of total future claims, 90 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts along with an estimation of disposition costs and related legal costs as inputs to develop its best estimate of probable liability. If the results of the annual comprehensive legal review indicate that the existing amount of the accrued liability is lower (higher) than its reasonably estimable asbestos-related costs, then the Company will record an appropriate charge (credit) to the Company’s results of operations to increase (decrease) the accrued liability. The significant assumptions underlying the material components of the Company’s accrual are: a) settlements will continue to be limited almost exclusively to claimants who were exposed to the Company’s asbestos-containing insulation prior to its exit from that business in 1958; b) claims will continue to be resolved primarily under the Company’s administrative claims agreements or on terms comparable to those set forth in those agreements; c) the incidence of serious asbestos-related disease cases and claiming patterns against the Company for such cases do not change materially; d) the Company is substantially able to defend itself successfully at trial and on appeal; e) the number and timing of additional co-defendant bankruptcies do not change significantly the assets available to participate in the resolution of cases in which the Company is a defendant; and f) co-defendants with substantial resources and assets continue to participate significantly in the resolution of future asbestos lawsuits and claims. As described in Note 1, the Company revised its method for estimating its asbestos-related liabilities in connection with finalizing and reporting its restated results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 and concluded that an accrual in the amount of $817 million and $939 million, respectively, was required. These amounts have not been discounted for the time value of money. The application of the revised method also resulted in charges of $16 million, $46 million and $12 million for the years ending December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that it will incur a loss for its asbestos-related liabilities in excess of the amount currently recognized, which is $817 million as of December 31, 2015. The Company estimates that reasonably possible losses could be as high as $950 million. This estimate of additional reasonably possible loss reflects a legal judgment about the number and cost of potential future claims and legal costs. The Company believes this estimate is consistent with the level of variability it has experienced when comparing actual results to recent near-term projections. However, it is also possible that the ultimate asbestos-related liability could be above this estimate. The Company expects a significant majority of the total number of claims to be received in the next ten years. This timeframe appropriately reflects the mortality of current and expected claimants in light of the Company’s sale of its insulation business unit in 1958. As noted above, the Company’s asbestos-related liability is based on a projection of new claims that will eventually be filed against the Company and the estimated average disposition cost of these claims and related legal costs. Changes in the significant assumptions noted above have the potential to impact these key factors, which are critical to the estimation of the Company’s asbestos-related liability significantly. Other Matters The Company conducted an internal investigation into conduct in certain of its overseas operations that may have violated the anti-bribery provisions of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), the FCPA’s books and records and internal controls provisions, the Company’s own internal policies, and various 91 Owens-Illinois, Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions, except per share amounts local laws. In October 2012, the Company voluntarily disclosed these matters to the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). On July 18, 2013, the Company received a letter from the DOJ indicating that it presently did not intend to take any enforcement action and is closing its inquiry into the matter. As disclosed in previous periods, the Company is presently unable to predict the duration, scope or result of an investigation by the SEC, if any, or whether the SEC will commence any legal action. The SEC has a broad range of civil sanctions under the FCPA and other laws and regulations including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, disgorgement, penalties, and modifications to business practices. The Company could also be subject to investigation and sanctions outside the United States. While the Company is currently unable to quantify the impact of any potential sanctions or remedial measures, it does not expect such actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, results of operations or financial condition. Other litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are non-routine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief. The Company records a liability for such matters when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Recorded amounts are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the factors upon which the estimates are based, including additional information, negotiations, settlements and other events. 13. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) The components of comprehensive income are: (a) net earnings; (b) change in fair value of certain derivative instruments; (c) pension and other postretirement benefit adjustments; and (d) foreign currency translation adjustments. The net effect of exchange rate fluctuations generally reflects changes in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar against major foreign currencies between the beginning and end of the year. 92 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

Stock Options and Other Stock Based Compensation The Company has various nonqualified plans approved by share owners under which it has granted stock options, restricted shares and performance vested restricted share units. At December 31, 2015, there were 8,892,000 shares available for grants under these plans. Total compensation cost for all grants of shares and units under these plans was $15 million, $21 million and $11 million for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Stock Options In general, subject to change in control, options become exercisable 25% per year beginning on the first anniversary of grant. No options may be exercised in whole or in part during the first year after the date granted. In general, options expire following termination of employment or the seventh anniversary of the option grant. The fair value of options is amortized over the vesting periods which range from one to four years. 93 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

The expected stock price volatility is determined by reference to historical prices over a period equal to the expected life. Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units Shares granted after March 21, 2005 and prior to 2011, vest 25% per year beginning on the first anniversary and unvested shares are forfeited upon termination of employment. Restricted share units granted to employees after 2010 vest 25% per year beginning on the first anniversary. Holders of vested restricted share units receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each unit. Granted but unvested restricted share units are forfeited upon termination, unless certain retirement criteria are met. Restricted share units granted to directors vest after one year. The fair value of the restricted shares and restricted share units is equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of restricted shares and restricted share units granted after March 21, 2005, is amortized over the vesting periods which range from one to four years. 94 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

Holders of vested units may receive up to 2 shares of the Company’s common stock for each unit, depending upon the attainment of consolidated performance goals established by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. If minimum goals are not met, no shares will be issued. Granted but unvested restricted share units are forfeited upon termination of employment, unless certain retirement criteria are met. The fair value of each performance vested restricted share unit is equal to the product of the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and the estimated number of shares into which the performance vested restricted share unit will be converted. The fair value of performance vested restricted share units is amortized ratably over the vesting period. Should the estimated number of shares into which the performance vested restricted share unit will be converted change, an adjustment will be recorded to recognize the accumulated difference in amortization between the revised and previous estimates.

Options to purchase 1,937,315, 1,143,933 and 1,315,216 weighted average shares of common stock which were outstanding during 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares. On February 4, 2015, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “ASR Counterparty”) to repurchase $100 million of its common stock. The Company advanced $100 million to the ASR Counterparty on February 5, 2015, and received 3,509,496 shares, which represented eighty five percent of the total shares as calculated using the closing price on February 4, 2015. The remaining share settlement was received from the ASR Counterparty in the amount of 599,760 shares and was completed on May 26, 2015 based on the daily volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the term of the ASR. Under the terms of the ASR program, the ASR Counterparty was permitted, in accordance with the applicable requirements of the federal securities laws, to separately trade in the Company’s shares. 97 Owens-Illinois, Inc.

Business Combinations On September 1, 2015, the Company completed the Vitro Acquisition in a cash transaction valued at approximately $2.297 billion, subject to a working capital adjustment and certain other adjustments. The Vitro Business in Mexico is the largest supplier of glass containers in that country, manufacturing glass containers across multiple end uses, including food, soft drinks, beer, wine and spirits. The Vitro Acquisition included five food and beverage glass container plants in Mexico, a plant in Bolivia and a North American distribution business, and provided the Company with a competitive position in the glass packaging market in Mexico. The results of the Vitro Business have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since September 1, 2015 and contributed approximately $258 million of net sales and $46 million of segment operating profit through December 31, 2015. Vitro’s food and beverage glass container operations in Mexico and Bolivia are included in the Latin American operating segment while its distribution business is included in the North American operating segment. The Company financed the Vitro Acquisition with the proceeds from its recently completed senior notes offering, cash on hand and the incremental term loan facilities (see Note 11). The total purchase price will be allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based upon their respective fair values. The purchase agreement contains customary provisions for working capital adjustments, which the Company expects to resolve with the seller in the first half of 2016. The purchase price allocation has not been finalized as of December 31, 2015, because the Company has not yet completed its review of the asset and liability values and related amortization and depreciation periods. The Company expects that the purchase price allocation process will be completed no later than the third quarter of 2016.

The customer list intangible asset includes the Company’s established relationships with its customers and the ability of these customers to generate future economic profits for the Company. The value assigned to customer list intangibles is based on the present value of future earnings attributable to the asset group after recognition of required returns to other contributory assets. Recognized goodwill is attributable to the assembled workforce, expected synergies and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Vitro Acquisition goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The provisional balance sheet adjustments identified above did not result in any significant adjustments to the previous period’s income statement. 20.

Discontinued Operations On March 10, 2015, a tribunal constituted under the auspices of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (“ICSID”) awarded a subsidiary of the Company more than $455 million in an international arbitration against Venezuela related to the 2010 expropriation of the Company’s majority interest in two plants in that country. On July 10, 2015, ICSID confirmed that it had received from Venezuela a petition to annul the award. The annulment process can take up to several years to complete. The Company is unable at this stage to predict the amount or timing of compensation it will ultimately receive under the award. Therefore, the Company has not recognized this award in its financial statements. A separate arbitration is pending with ICSID to obtain compensation primarily for third-party minority shareholders’ lost interests in the two expropriated plants. The loss from discontinued operations of $4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 relates to ongoing costs for the Venezuelan expropriation. The loss from discontinued operations of $23 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 included a settlement of a dispute with a purchaser of a previously disposed business, as well as ongoing costs related to the Venezuelan expropriation. The loss from discontinued operations of $18 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 included special termination benefits related to a previously disposed business, as well as ongoing costs related to the Venezuelan expropriation. 22.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit 108 relationship of possible controls and procedures. Also, the Company has investments in certain unconsolidated entities. As the Company does not control or manage these entities, its disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities are necessarily substantially more limited than those maintained with respect to its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2015. At the time of the Original Filing of its Form 10-K on February 16, 2016, the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2015. Subsequent to the evaluation described above, management has determined that a material weakness exists in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. As a result of this material weakness described in its Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2015. Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. However, all internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and reporting. The Company acquired the Vitro Business on September 1, 2015, which represented approximately 4% of total net sales and approximately 26% of the Company’s total assets as of December 31, 2015. As the Vitro Acquisition was completed during the third quarter of 2015, the scope of the Company’s assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting does not include the Vitro Business. This exclusion is pursuant to the SEC’s general guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business’ internal control over financial reporting from the Company’s assessment of its internal control may be omitted from the scope of the Company’s assessment of its internal control over financial reporting for twelve months following the date of acquisition. Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. In making this assessment management used the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting as described in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO framework) in 2013. At the time of the Original Filing of its Form 10-K on February 16, 2016, the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2015. Subsequent to this assessment, using the criteria described above, management identified the material weakness described below. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies in material control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misunderstanding of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Determination of asbestos-related liabilities - The Company identified a deficiency in the design of its control activities for the estimation of liabilities related to probable losses for unasserted asbestos claims. The Company did not have sufficient controls in place to provide reasonable assurance that a material error would be prevented or detected related to the application of ASC 450 to the estimation of probable losses from unasserted asbestos claims. This deficiency in the design of the Company’s controls resulted in a material error in the Company’s financial statements as described further in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. 109 Management concluded that the matter described above is a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP, that audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements, has issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting which is included below. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Planned remediation of material weakness – The Company is committed to remediating the control deficiency that gave rise to the material weakness described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for implementing changes and improvements to internal control over financial reporting and for remediating the control deficiency that gave rise to this material weakness. To remediate the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, the Company will establish policies and procedures for the review, approval and application of generally accepted accounting principles to, and disclosure with respect to, unasserted asbestos claims. In particular, the Company intends to complement its revised method of determining its asbestos-related liability (see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) with appropriate analytical and review controls to ensure that the Company’s liability and related disclosures comply with generally accepted accounting principles. As the Company continues to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, the Company may determine to take additional measures to address its material weakness or determine to modify the remediation efforts described above. Until the remediation efforts discussed above, including any additional remediation efforts that the Company identifies as necessary, are implemented, tested and deemed to be operating effectively, the material weakness described above will continue to exist. The Company currently expects that these activities will be completed as part of its annual comprehensive legal review of asbestos-related liabilities and costs (as described in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) to be completed in the fourth quarter 2016. Other than the matter described above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. 110 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM The Board of Directors and Share Owners of Owens-Illinois, Inc. We have audited Owens Illinois, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). Owens-Illinois, Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. As indicated in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management’s assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of the food and beverage glass container business of Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V. and its subsidiaries in the United States, Mexico, and Bolivia (the “Vitro Business”), which is included in the December 31, 2015 consolidated financial statements of Owens-Illinois, Inc. and constituted approximately 26% of the Company’s total assets as of December 31, 2015 and approximately 4% of total net sales for the year then ended. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of Owens-Illinois, Inc. also did not include an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of the Vitro Business. In our report dated February 16, 2016, we expressed an unqualified opinion that Owens-Illinois, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on the COSO criteria. Management has subsequently identified a deficiency in controls related to the Company’s asbestos-related liabilities, and has further concluded that such deficiency represented a material weakness as of December 31, 2015. As a result, management has revised its assessment, as presented in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, to conclude that Owens- 111 Illinois, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2015. Accordingly, our present opinion on the effectiveness of Owens-Illinois, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, as expressed herein, is different from that expressed in our previous report. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weakness has been identified and included in management's assessment. Management has identified a material weakness in controls related to the design of its control activities for the estimation of liabilities related to probable losses for unasserted asbestos claims. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Owens-Illinois, Inc. as of December 31, 2015, and the related consolidated statements of results of operations, comprehensive income, share owners’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015. This material weakness was considered in determining the nature, timing and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2015 consolidated financial statements, and this report does not affect our report dated February 16, 2016, except for Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements, as to which the date is May 13, 2016, which expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, because of the effect of the material weakness described above on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, Owens-Illinois, Inc. has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on the COSO criteria. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Toledo, Ohio February 16, 2016, except for the effect of the material weakness described in the seventh paragraph, as to which the date is May 13, 2016 ITEM 9B.

(the Company) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of results of operations, comprehensive income, shareowners’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Owens-Brockway Packaging, Inc. at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Toledo, Ohio February 16, 2016 121 Owens-Brockway Packaging, Inc.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Tabular data dollars in millions 1. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Consolidated Statements The consolidated financial statements of Owens-Brockway Packaging, Inc. (the “Company”) include the accounts of its subsidiaries. Newly acquired subsidiaries have been included in the consolidated financial statements from dates of acquisition. The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in which it has a significant ownership interest, generally 20% to 50%. Other investments are accounted for at cost. The Company monitors other than temporary declines in fair value and records reductions in carrying values when appropriate. Relationship with Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. and Owens-Illinois, Inc. The Company is a 100%-owned subsidiary of Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. (“OI Group”) and an indirect subsidiary of Owens-Illinois, Inc. (“OI Inc.”). Although OI Inc. does not conduct any operations, it has substantial obligations related to outstanding indebtedness and asbestos-related payments. OI Inc. relies primarily on distributions from its direct and indirect subsidiaries to meet these obligations. For federal and certain state income tax purposes, the taxable income of the Company is included in the consolidated tax returns of OI Inc. and income taxes are allocated to the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns. Nature of Operations The Company is a leading manufacturer of glass container products. The Company’s principal product lines are glass containers for the food and beverage industries. The Company has glass container operations located in 23 countries. The principal markets and operations for the Company’s products are in Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates, at which time the Company would revise its estimates accordingly. Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Any related translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in share owners’ equity. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes sales, net of estimated discounts and allowances, when the title to the products and risk of loss are transferred to customers. Provisions for rebates to customers are provided in the same period that the related sales are recorded. Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling costs are included with cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Results of Operations. Cash The Company defines “cash” as cash and time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are included in accounts payable. Accounts Receivable Receivables are stated at amounts estimated by management to be the net realizable value. The Company charges off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent based upon age or customer circumstances that amounts will not be collected. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through charges to the provision for bad debts. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a periodic basis. The evaluation includes historical trends in collections and write-offs, management’s judgment of the probability of collecting accounts and management’s evaluation of business risk. Inventory Valuation Inventories are valued at the lower of average costs or market. 128 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc.

Amortization expense directly attributed to the manufacturing of the Company’s products is included in cost of goods sold. Amortization expense related to non-manufacturing activities is included in selling and administrative and other. The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and other long-lived assets based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that impairment may exist. If impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) is carried at cost and includes expenditures for new facilities and equipment and those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. In general, depreciation is computed using the straight-line method and recorded over the estimated useful life of the asset. Factory machinery and equipment is depreciated over periods ranging from 5 to 25 years with the majority of such assets (principally glass-melting furnaces and forming machines) depreciated over 7 to 15 years. Buildings and building equipment are depreciated over periods ranging from 10 to 50 years. Depreciation expense directly attributed to the manufacturing of the Company’s products is included in cost of goods sold. Depreciation expense related to non-manufacturing activities is included in selling and administrative. Depreciation expense includes the amortization of assets recorded under capital leases. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs assigned to PP&E of acquired businesses are based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The Company evaluates the recoverability of PP&E based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that impairment may exist. If impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value. Derivative Instruments The Company uses forward exchange contracts, options and commodity forward contracts to manage risks generally associated with foreign exchange rate and commodity market volatility. Derivative financial instruments are included on the balance sheet at fair value. When appropriate, derivative instruments are designated as and are effective as hedges, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. If the underlying hedged transaction ceases to exist, all changes in fair value of the related derivatives that have not been settled are recognized in current earnings. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes and is not a party to leveraged derivatives. Cash flows from short-term forward exchange contracts not designated as hedges are classified as a financing activity. Cash flows of commodity forward contracts are classified as operating activities. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Generally accepted accounting principles defines a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop assumptions. The carrying amounts reported for cash and short-term loans approximate fair value. In addition, carrying amounts approximate fair value for certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates. Fair values for the Company’s significant fixed rate debt obligations are generally based on published market quotations. 129 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions The Company’s derivative assets and liabilities consist of natural gas forwards and foreign exchange option and forward contracts. The Company uses an income approach to valuing these contracts. Natural gas forward rates and foreign exchange rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models. These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds, and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications of prior years’ data have been made to conform to the current year presentation. New Accounting Standards Revenue from Contracts with Customers - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which delayed by one year the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard, which will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting. Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs - In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge (asset). In the third quarter 2015, the Company elected to adopt this new guidance. As a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations for any period. Previously, the Company had classified these debt issuance costs as an asset in “other assets”. Accordingly, the Company has revised the classification to report these debt issuance costs under the “long-term debt” caption on the balance sheet. For the period ended December 31, 2014, the total of debt issuance costs that was previously classified as “other assets” was $15 million. Business Combinations – In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments”. This standard allows for the acquirer to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting periods in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The Company elected to adopt this new guidance as of the third quarter of 2015. Deferred Taxes – In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes”. This standard requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The Company elected to adopt this new guidance prospectively in the fourth quarter of 2015. Prior periods were not retrospectively adjusted. Participation in OI Inc. Stock Option Plans and Other Stock Based Compensation The Company participates in the equity compensation plans of OI Inc. under which employees of the Company may be granted options to purchase common shares of OI Inc., restricted common shares of OI Inc., or restricted share units of OI Inc. 130 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions Stock Options In general, subject to change in control, options become exercisable 25% per year beginning on the first anniversary of grant. No options may be exercised in whole or in part during the first year after the date granted. In general, options expire following termination of employment or the seventh anniversary of the option grant. The fair value of options is amortized over the vesting periods which range from one to four years. Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units Shares granted after March 21, 2005 and prior to 2011, vest 25% per year beginning on the first anniversary and unvested shares are forfeited upon termination of employment. Restricted share units granted to employees after 2010 vest 25% per year beginning on the first anniversary. Holders of vested restricted share units receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each unit. Granted but unvested restricted share units are forfeited upon termination, unless certain retirement criteria are met. Restricted share units granted to directors vest after one year. The fair value of the restricted shares and restricted share units is equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of restricted shares and restricted share units granted after March 21, 2005, is amortized over the vesting periods which range from one to four years. Performance Vested Restricted Share Units Performance vested restricted share units vest on January 1 of the third year following the year in which they are granted. Holders of vested units may receive up to 2 shares of OI Inc.’s common stock for each unit, depending upon the attainment of consolidated performance goals established by the Compensation Committee of OI Inc.’s Board of Directors. If minimum goals are not met, no shares will be issued. Granted but unvested restricted share units are forfeited upon termination of employment, unless certain retirement criteria are met. The fair value of each performance vested restricted share unit is equal to the product of the fair value of OI Inc.’s common stock on the date of grant and the estimated number of shares into which the performance vested restricted share unit will be converted. The fair value of performance vested restricted share units is amortized ratably over the vesting period. Should the estimated number of shares into which the performance vested restricted share unit will be converted change, an adjustment will be recorded to recognize the accumulated difference in amortization between the revised and previous estimates. As discussed in Note 21, costs incurred under these plans by OI Inc. related to stock-based compensation awards granted directly to the Company’s employees are included in the allocable costs charged to the Company and other operating subsidiaries of OI Inc. on an intercompany basis. 2. Segment Information The Company has four reportable segments based on its geographic locations: Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific. In connection with the Company’s acquisition (the “Vitro Acquisition”) of the food and beverage glass container business of Vitro S.A.B. de C.V. and its subsidiaries as conducted in the United States, Mexico and Bolivia (the “Vitro Business”) on September 1, 2015 (see Note 17), the Company has renamed the former South America segment to the Latin America segment. This change in segment name was made to reflect the addition of the Mexican and Bolivian operations from the Vitro Acquisition into the former South America segment. The acquired Vitro food and beverage glass container distribution business located in the United States is included in the North American operating segment. These four segments are aligned with the Company’s internal approach to managing, reporting, and evaluating performance of its global glass operations. Certain assets and activities not directly related to one of the regions or to glass manufacturing are reported 131 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions within Other. These include licensing, equipment manufacturing, global engineering, and certain equity investments. The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is segment operating profit, which consists of consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations. The Company’s management uses segment operating profit, in combination with selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. Segment operating profit for reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided.

There is a difference of approximately $18 million as of December 31, 2015, between the amount at which certain investments are carried and the amount of underlying equity in net assets. The portion of the difference related to inventory or amortizable assets is amortized as a reduction of the equity earnings. The remaining difference is considered goodwill. 135 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions 5.

Goodwill for the Asia Pacific segment is $0 and net of accumulated impairment losses of $1,135 million as of December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as of October 1 (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) using a two-step process. Step 1 compares the business enterprise value (“BEV”) of each reporting unit with its carrying value. The BEV is computed based on estimated future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third-party buyer. If the BEV is less than the carrying value for any reporting unit, then Step 2 must be performed. Step 2 compares the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of goodwill. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value will be recorded as an impairment loss. The calculations of the BEV in Step 1 and the implied fair value of goodwill in Step 2 are based on significant unobservable inputs, such as price trends, customer demand, material costs, discount rates and asset replacement costs, and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company completed its annual impairment testing and determined that no impairment existed. Intangible assets On September 1, 2015, the Company acquired customer list intangibles as part of the Vitro Acquisition (see Note 17).

Estimated amortization related to intangible assets through 2020 is 136 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions as follows: 2016, $42 million; 2017, $45 million; 2018, $44 million; 2019, $44 million; and 2020, $42 million. No impairment existed on these assets at December 31, 2015. The Company has determined that the fair value measurements related to the customer list intangibles are based on significant unobservable inputs and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. 6.

Derivative Instruments The Company has certain derivative assets and liabilities which consist of natural gas forwards and foreign exchange option and forward contracts. The Company uses an income approach to value these contracts. Natural gas forward rates and foreign exchange rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models. These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds, and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values. Commodity Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges In North America, the Company enters into commodity forward contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements, the objectives of which are to limit the effects of fluctuations in the future market price paid for natural gas and the related volatility in cash flows. The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market and related price risk and periodically enters into commodity forward contracts in order to hedge a portion of its usage requirements. The majority of the sales volume in North America is tied to customer contracts that contain provisions that pass the price of natural gas to the customer. In certain of these contracts, the customer has the option of fixing the natural gas price component for a specified period of time. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, 137 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions the Company had entered into commodity forward contracts covering approximately 7,300,000 MM BTUs and 450,000 MM BTUs, respectively, primarily related to customer requests to lock the price of natural gas. The Company accounts for the above forward contracts as cash flow hedges at December 31, 2015 and recognizes them on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as, and meets the required criteria for, a cash flow hedge is recorded in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income component of share owners’ equity (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the underlying hedged item affects earnings. An unrecognized loss of $4 million at December 31, 2015 and an unrecognized loss of less than $1 million at December 31, 2014 related to the commodity forward contracts were included in Accumulated OCI, and will be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve to twenty-four months. Any material portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge that is deemed to be ineffective is recognized in current earnings. The ineffectiveness related to these natural gas hedges for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was not material. The effect of the commodity forward contracts on the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 is as follows: Amount of Gain (Loss) recognized in OCI on Commodity Forward Contracts (Effective Portion) 2014 2013 2015 Amount of Gain (Loss) reclassified from Accumulated OCI into Income (reported in cost of goods sold) (Effective Portion) 2014 2015 2013 $ (4) $ 3 $ 1 $ (1) $ 2 $ (1) Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts and not Designated as Hedging Instruments The Company may enter into short-term forward exchange or option agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. The Company may also use forward exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency risk for receivables and payables, including intercompany receivables, payables and loans, not denominated in, or indexed to, their functional currencies. The Company records these short-term forward exchange agreements on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value are recognized in current earnings. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had outstanding forward exchange and option agreements denominated in various currencies covering the equivalent of approximately $790 million and $524 million, respectively, related primarily to intercompany transactions and loans. The effect of the foreign exchange derivative contracts on the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 is as follows: Location of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Foreign Exchange Contracts Other expense . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ Balance Sheet Classification Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Foreign Exchange Contracts 2014 2013 2015 10 $ (8) $ (28) The Company records the fair values of derivative financial instruments on the balance sheet as follows: (a) receivables if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity within one year, (b) deposits, receivables, 138 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc.

Restructuring Accruals, Asset Impairments and Other Costs Related to Closed Facilities The Company continually reviews its manufacturing footprint and operating cost structure and may decide to close operations or reduce headcount to gain efficiencies, integrate acquired operations, reduce future expenses and other market factors. The Company incurs costs associated with these actions including employee severance and benefits, other exit costs such as those related to contract terminations, and asset impairment charges. The Company also may incur other costs related to closed facilities including environmental remediation, clean up, dismantling and preparation for sale or other disposition. The Company accounts for restructuring and other costs under applicable provisions of generally accepted accounting principles. Charges for employee severance and related benefits are generally accrued based on contractual arrangements with employees or their representatives. Other exit costs are accrued based on the estimated cost to settle related contractual arrangements. Estimated environmental remediation costs are accrued when specific claims have been received or are probable of being received. The Company’s decisions to curtail selected production capacity have resulted in write downs of certain long-lived assets to the extent their carrying amounts exceeded fair value or fair value less cost to sell. The Company classified the significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of the impaired assets as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as set forth in the general accounting principles for fair value measurements. When a decision is made to take these actions, the Company manages and accounts for them programmatically apart from the on-going operations of the business. Information related to major programs (as in the case of the European Asset Optimization and Asia Pacific Restructuring programs below) are presented separately. Minor initiatives are presented on a combined basis as Other Restructuring Actions. These restructuring initiatives taken by the Company are not related to the European Asset Optimization program or the Asia Pacific restructuring plan. When charges related to major programs are completed, remaining accrual balances are classified with Other Restructuring Actions. European Asset Optimization Since 2011, the Company has implemented the European Asset Optimization program to increase the efficiency and capability of its European operations and to better align its European manufacturing footprint with 139 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions market and customer needs. This program involved making additional investments in certain facilities and addressing assets with higher cost structures. As part of this program, the Company recorded charges of $0 million in 2015, $1 million in 2014 and $16 million in 2013 for employee costs, write-down of assets, and environmental remediation related to decisions to close furnaces and manufacturing facilities in Europe. The Company does not expect to execute any further actions under this program and recorded total cumulative charges of $127 million. Asia Pacific Restructuring Since 2011, the Company has implemented a restructuring plan in its Asia Pacific segment, primarily related to aligning its supply base with lower demand in the region. As part of this plan, the Company recorded charges of $5 million, $73 million and $49 million for the years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, for employee costs, write-down of assets, and pension charges related to furnace closures and additional restructuring activities. The Company has recorded total cumulative charges of $220 million under this program. Other Restructuring Actions The Company took certain other restructuring actions and recorded charges in 2015 of $58 million. These charges primarily related to employee costs, write-down of assets and other exit costs totaling $14 million for a plant closure and furnace closure in Latin America, $38 million for a plant closure in North America and $6 million for other restructuring actions. In 2014, the Company took certain other restructuring actions and recorded charges of $2 million for employee costs related to global headcount reduction initiatives. In 2013, there were charges of $16 million for employee costs related to the closure of flat glass operations in Latin America, $13 million for employee costs related to global headcount reduction initiatives, and $3 million for miscellaneous other costs.

Pension Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits Pension Benefit Plans The Company participates in OI Inc.’s defined benefit pension plans for a substantial number of employees located in the United States. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and on length of service for hourly employees. OI Inc.’s policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. Independent actuaries determine pension costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc. included in the plans; however, accumulated benefit obligation information and plan assets pertaining to each subsidiary have not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated benefit obligation and the plan assets related to the pension plans for domestic employees have been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc. Net expense to results of operations for the Company’s allocated portion of the domestic pension costs amounted to $24 million in 2015, $19 million in 2014 and $48 million in 2013. OI Inc. also sponsors several defined contribution plans for all salaried and hourly U.S. employees of the Company. Participation is voluntary and participants’ contributions are based on their compensation. OI Inc. matches contributions of participants, up to various limits, in substantially all plans. OI Inc. charges the Company for its share of the match. The Company’s share of the contributions to these plans amounted to $27 million in 2015, $17 million in 2014 and $13 million in 2013. The Company also has defined benefit pension plans covering a substantial number of employees in several non-U.S. jurisdictions. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and on length of service for hourly employees. The Company’s policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. The Company’s defined benefit pension plans use a December 31 measurement date.

For 2015, the Company’s weighted average expected long-term rate of return on assets was 7.23% for the non-U.S. plans. In developing this assumption, the Company evaluated input from its third party pension plan 143 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions asset managers, including their review of asset class return expectations and long-term inflation assumptions. The Company also considered its historical 10-year average return (through December 31, 2014), which was in line with the expected long-term rate of return assumption for 2015. It is the Company’s policy to invest pension plan assets in a diversified portfolio consisting of an array of asset classes within established target asset allocation ranges. The investment risk of the assets is limited by appropriate diversification both within and between asset classes. The assets of the group trust and the Company’s non-U.S. plans are primarily invested in a broad mix of domestic and international equities, domestic and international bonds, and real estate, subject to the target asset allocation ranges. The assets are managed with a view to ensuring that sufficient liquidity will be available to meet expected cash flow requirements. The investment valuation policy of the Company is to value investments at fair value. All investments are valued at their respective net asset values. Equity securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last reported sales price on their principal exchange on valuation date or official close for certain markets. Fixed income investments are valued by an independent pricing service. Investments in registered investment companies or collective pooled funds are valued at their respective net asset values. Short-term investments are stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The fair value of real estate is determined by periodic appraisals. The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s pension plan assets at fair value as of December 31, 2015 and 2014: 2015 2014 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Target Allocation Cash and cash equivalents . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 30 $ — $ — $ 14 $ — $ — Equity securities . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The change in the fair value of Level 3 pension plan assets due to actual return on those assets was immaterial in 2015. In order to maintain minimum funding requirements, the Company is required to make contributions to its non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans of approximately $22 million in 2016. 144 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc.

Benefits provided by the Company for hourly retirees are determined by collective bargaining. Employees are generally eligible for benefits upon retirement and completion of a specified number of years of creditable service. Independent actuaries determine postretirement benefit costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc.; however, accumulated postretirement benefit obligation information pertaining to each subsidiary has not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation has been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc. The Company’s net periodic postretirement benefit cost, as allocated by OI Inc., for domestic employees was $2 million, $1 million, and $3 million at December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. The Company also has postretirement benefit plans covering substantially all employees in Canada.

In determining the requirement for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial results of the legal entity or consolidated group recording the net deferred tax asset is considered, along with other positive and negative evidence. In certain foreign jurisdictions, the Company’s analysis indicates that it has cumulative losses in recent years. This is considered significant negative evidence which is objective and verifiable and, therefore, difficult to overcome. However, the cumulative loss position is not solely determinative and, accordingly, the Company considers all other available positive and negative evidence in its analysis. Based on its analysis, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the portion of deferred tax assets where based on the weight of available evidence it is unlikely to realize those deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2015, before valuation allowance, the Company had unused foreign tax credits of $389 million expiring in 2017 through 2025, and research tax credit of $14 million expiring from 2019 to 2035, which will be available to offset future income tax. Approximately $145 million of the deferred tax assets related to operating and capital loss carryforwards can be carried over indefinitely, with the remaining $151 million expiring between 2016 and 2035. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s equity in the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which income taxes had not been provided approximated $2.5 billion. The Company intends to reinvest these earnings indefinitely in the non-U.S. operations. It is not practicable to estimate the U.S. and foreign tax which would be 149 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions payable should these earnings be distributed. Deferred taxes are provided for earnings of non-U.S. jurisdictions when the Company plans to remit those earnings. The Company is included in OI Inc.’s consolidated tax returns for U.S. federal and certain state income tax purposes. The consolidated group has net operating losses, capital losses, alternative minimum tax credits, foreign tax credits and research and development credits available to offset future U.S. Federal income tax. Income taxes are allocated to the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns. The Company has recognized tax benefits as a result of incentives in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions which expire in 2016. The Company records a liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions. The Company accrues interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as a component of its income tax expense.

The Company believes that it is reasonable possible that the estimated liability could decrease up to $47 million within the next 12 months. This is primarily the result of audit settlements or statute expirations in several taxing jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in various tax jurisdictions in which it operates, including Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, China, Canada, Colombia, France, Germany, Indonesia, and Italy. The years under examination range from 2004 through 2013. The Company believes that there are no jurisdictions in which the outcome of unresolved issues or claims is likely to be material to the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company further believes that adequate provisions for all income tax uncertainties have been made. During 2015, the Company concluded income tax audits in several jurisdictions, including Argentina, Germany, Italy, Peru and Poland. 150 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc.

The proceeds from the Agreement were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the Previous Agreement and the 7.375% senior notes due 2016. The Company recorded $42 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the related write-off of unamortized finance fees in 2015. In connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015 (see Note 17), the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the Agreement, which provided for additional incremental availability under the incremental dollar cap in the Agreement of up to $1,250 million. In addition, in connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition, on September 1, 2015, the Company entered into the First Incremental Amendment to the Agreement (the “Incremental Amendment”) pursuant to which the Company incurred $1,250 million of senior secured incremental term loan facilities, comprised of (i) a $675 million term loan A facility (the “incremental term loan A facility”) on substantially the same terms and conditions (including as to maturity) as the term loan A facility in the Agreement and (ii) a $575 million term loan B facility (the “incremental term loan B facility”) maturing seven years after the closing of the Vitro Acquisition using its incremental capacity under the Agreement. 151 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions At December 31, 2015, the Agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 2 and the Incremental Amendment (the “Amended Agreement”), includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $600 million multicurrency revolving credit facility, a $1,575 million term loan A facility ($1,546 million net of debt issuance costs), and a €279 million term loan A facility ($301 million net of debt issuance costs), each of which has a final maturity date of April 22, 2020. The Amended Agreement also includes a $575 million term loan B facility ($563 million net of debt issuance costs) with a final maturity date of September 1, 2022. At December 31, 2015, the Company had unused credit of $872 million available under the Amended Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Amended Agreement at December 31, 2015 was 2.37%. The Amended Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, engage in certain affiliate transactions, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain subordinated debt obligations. The Amended Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Total Leverage Ratio, that requires the Company as of the last day of a fiscal quarter not to exceed a ratio of 4.0x calculated by dividing consolidated total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, by consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Amended Agreement. The maximum Total Leverage Ratio is subject to an increase of 0.5x for the four fiscal quarters commencing on and following the consummation of certain qualifying acquisitions as defined in the Amended Agreement. In connection with the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015, the Company elected to increase such maximum Total Leverage Ratio to 4.5x for the four fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2016. The Total Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Total Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum. On February 3, 2016, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the Amended Agreement, which provided for an increase in the maximum Total Leverage Ratio for purposes of the financial covenant in the Amended Agreement of up to 5.0x for the three fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2016, 4.50x for the four fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017 and stepping down to 4.0x for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2017 and each fiscal quarter ending thereafter. Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4. In such an event, the Company could not request borrowings under the revolving facility, and all amounts outstanding under the Amended Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable. If an event of default occurs under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4 and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Amended Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities. As of December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Amended Agreement. In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow funds under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4 will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions. The interest rates on borrowings under the Amended Agreement are, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the Amended Agreement, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for the term loan A facility and the revolving credit facility is linked to the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio and ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.25% to 0.75% for Base Rate loans. In addition, a facility fee is payable on the revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% per annum linked to the Total Leverage Ratio. The applicable margin for the term loan B facility is 2.75% 152 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions for Eurocurrency Rate loans and 1.75% for Base Rate loans. The incremental term loan B facility is subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. Borrowings under the Amended Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate and certain other excluded assets, of certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries. Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity investments in certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and, in the case of foreign borrowings, of stock of certain foreign subsidiaries. All borrowings under the Amended Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company for the term of the Amended Agreement. Also, in connection with the Vitro Acquisition, during August 2015, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $700 million that bear interest at 5.875% and are due August 15, 2023 (the “Senior Notes due 2023”) and senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 6.375% and are due August 15, 2025 (together with the Senior Notes due 2023, the “2015 Senior Notes”). The 2015 Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company‘s domestic subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the 2015 Senior Notes, after deducting the debt discount and debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $972 million and were used to finance, in part, the Vitro Acquisition. During December 2014, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $500 million that bear interest at 5.00% and are due January 15, 2022 (the “Senior Notes due 2022”). The Company also issued senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 5.375% and are due January 15, 2025 (together with the Senior Notes due 2022, the “2014 Senior Notes”). The 2014 Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company‘s domestic subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the 2014 Senior Notes, after deducting debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $790 million and were used to purchase in a tender offer $611 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.00% 2015 Exchangeable Senior Notes. The remaining balance of the Exchangeable Senior Notes was repaid in the second quarter of 2015. The Company has a €185 million European accounts receivable securitization program, which extends through September 2016, subject to periodic renewal of backup credit lines. Information related to the Company’s accounts receivable securitization program as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows: 2015 2014 Balance (included in short-term loans) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ Weighted average interest rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 158 $ 1.21 % 122 1.41 % The carrying amounts reported for the accounts receivable securitization program, and certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates, approximate fair value.

Contingencies Certain litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are nonroutine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief. The Company records a liability for such matters when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Recorded amounts are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the factors upon which the estimates are based including additional information, negotiations, settlements, and other events. The ultimate legal and financial liability of the Company in respect to this pending litigation cannot reasonably be estimated. However, the Company believes, based on its examination and review of such matters and experience to date, that such ultimate liability will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition. The Company conducted an internal investigation into conduct in certain of its overseas operations that may have violated the anti-bribery provisions of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), the FCPA’s books and records and internal controls provisions, the Company’s own internal policies, and various local laws. In October 2012, the Company voluntarily disclosed these matters to the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). On July 18, 2013, the Company received a letter from the DOJ indicating that it presently did not intend to take any enforcement action and is closing its inquiry into the matter. As disclosed in previous periods, the Company is presently unable to predict the duration, scope or result of an investigation by the SEC, if any, or whether the SEC will commence any legal action. The SEC has a broad range of civil sanctions under the FCPA and other laws and regulations including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, disgorgement, penalties, and modifications to business practices. The Company could also be subject to investigation and sanctions outside the United States. While the Company is currently unable to quantify the impact of any potential sanctions or remedial measures, it does not expect such actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, results of operations or financial condition. Other litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are non-routine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief. The Company records a liability for such matters when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Recorded amounts are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the factors upon which the estimates are based, including additional information, negotiations, settlements and other events. 154 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc.

Business Combinations On September 1, 2015, the Company completed the Vitro Acquisition in a cash transaction valued at approximately $2.297 billion, subject to a working capital adjustment and certain other adjustments. The Vitro Business in Mexico is the largest supplier of glass containers in that country, manufacturing glass containers across multiple end uses, including food, soft drinks, beer, wine and spirits. The Vitro Acquisition included five food and beverage glass container plants in Mexico, a plant in Bolivia and a North American distribution business, and provided the Company with a competitive position in the glass packaging market in Mexico. The results of the Vitro Business have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since September 1, 2015 and contributed approximately $258 million of net sales and $46 million of segment operating profit through December 31, 2015. Vitro’s food and beverage glass container operations in Mexico and Bolivia are included in the Latin American operating segment while its distribution business is included in the North American operating segment. The Company financed the Vitro Acquisition with the proceeds from its recently completed senior notes offering, cash on hand and the incremental term loan facilities (see Note 11). The total purchase price will be allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based upon their respective fair values. The purchase agreement contains customary provisions for working capital adjustments, which the Company expects to resolve with the seller in the first half of 2016. The purchase price allocation has not been finalized as of December 31, 2015, because the Company has not yet completed its review of the asset and liability values and related amortization and depreciation periods. The Company expects that the purchase price allocation process will be completed no later than the third quarter of 2016. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed on September 1, 2015 and subsequent adjustments identified through the ongoing purchase price allocation process and recorded through the measurement period: September 1, 2015 Measurement Period Adjustments December 31, 2015 Cash . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ Other current assets . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The customer list intangible asset includes the Company’s established relationships with its customers and the ability of these customers to generate future economic profits for the Company. The value assigned to customer list intangibles is based on the present value of future earnings attributable to the asset group after recognition of required returns to other contributory assets. Recognized goodwill is attributable to the assembled workforce, expected synergies and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Vitro Acquisition goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. 157 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc.

Discontinued Operations On March 10, 2015, a tribunal constituted under the auspices of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (“ICSID”) awarded a subsidiary of the Company more than $455 million in an international arbitration against Venezuela related to the 2010 expropriation of the Company’s majority interest in two plants in that country. On July 10, 2015, ICSID confirmed that it had received from Venezuela a petition to annul the award. The annulment process can take up to several years to complete. The Company is unable at this stage to predict the amount or timing of compensation it will ultimately receive under the award. Therefore, the Company has not recognized this award in its financial statements. A separate arbitration is pending with ICSID to obtain compensation primarily for third-party minority shareholders’ lost interests in the two expropriated plants. The loss from discontinued operations of $4 million, $4 million and $10 million for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, relates to ongoing costs for the Venezuelan expropriation. 20. Guarantees of Debt OI Group and the Company guarantee OI Inc.’s senior debentures on a subordinated basis. The fair value of the OI Inc. debt being guaranteed was $277 at December 31, 2015. 158 Owens-Brockway Packaging Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions 21. Related Party Transactions Charges for administrative services are allocated to the Company by OI Inc. based on an annual utilization level. Such services include compensation and benefits administration, payroll processing, use of certain general accounting systems, auditing, income tax planning and compliance, and treasury services. Allocated costs also include charges associated with OI Inc.’s equity compensation plans. A substantial number of the options, restricted share units and performance vested restricted share units granted under these plans have been granted to key employees of another subsidiary of OI Inc., some of whose compensation costs, including stock-based compensation, are included in an allocation of costs to all operating subsidiaries of OI Inc., including the Company. Management believes that such transactions are on terms no less favorable to the Company than those that could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of results of operations, comprehensive income, shareowners’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Toledo, Ohio February 16, 2016 160 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Tabular data dollars in millions 1. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Consolidated Statements The consolidated financial statements of Owens-Brockway Glass Container, Inc. (the “Company”) include the accounts of its subsidiaries. Newly acquired subsidiaries have been included in the consolidated financial statements from dates of acquisition. The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in which it has a significant ownership interest, generally 20% to 50%. Other investments are accounted for at cost. The Company monitors other than temporary declines in fair value and records reductions in carrying values when appropriate. Relationship with Owens-Brockway Packaging, Inc., Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. and Owens-Illinois, Inc. The Company is a 100%-owned subsidiary of Owens-Brockway Packaging, Inc. (“OB Packaging”), and an indirect subsidiary of Owens-Illinois Group, Inc. (“OI Group”) and Owens-Illinois, Inc. (“OI Inc.”). Although OI Inc. does not conduct any operations, it has substantial obligations related to outstanding indebtedness and asbestos-related payments. OI Inc. relies primarily on distributions from its direct and indirect subsidiaries to meet these obligations. For federal and certain state income tax purposes, the taxable income of the Company is included in the consolidated tax returns of OI Inc. and income taxes are allocated to the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns. Nature of Operations The Company is a leading manufacturer of glass container products. The Company’s principal product lines are glass containers for the food and beverage industries. The Company has glass container operations located in 23 countries. The principal markets and operations for the Company’s products are in Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates, at which time the Company would revise its estimates accordingly. Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Any related translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in share owners’ equity. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes sales, net of estimated discounts and allowances, when the title to the products and risk of loss are transferred to customers. Provisions for rebates to customers are provided in the same period that the related sales are recorded. Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling costs are included with cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Results of Operations. Cash The Company defines “cash” as cash and time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are included in accounts payable. Accounts Receivable Receivables are stated at amounts estimated by management to be the net realizable value. The Company charges off accounts receivable when it becomes apparent based upon age or customer circumstances that amounts will not be collected. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through charges to the provision for bad debts. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on a periodic basis. The evaluation includes historical trends in collections and write-offs, management’s judgment of the probability of collecting accounts and management’s evaluation of business risk. 167 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions Inventory Valuation Inventories are valued at the lower of average costs or market. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is evaluated annually, as of October 1, for impairment or more frequently if an impairment indicator exists. Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets Intangible assets are amortized over the expected useful life of the asset. Amortization expense directly attributed to the manufacturing of the Company’s products is included in cost of goods sold. Amortization expense related to non-manufacturing activities is included in selling and administrative and other. The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and other long-lived assets based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that impairment may exist. If impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) is carried at cost and includes expenditures for new facilities and equipment and those costs which substantially increase the useful lives or capacity of existing PP&E. In general, depreciation is computed using the straight-line method and recorded over the estimated useful life of the asset. Factory machinery and equipment is depreciated over periods ranging from 5 to 25 years with the majority of such assets (principally glass-melting furnaces and forming machines) depreciated over 7 to 15 years. Buildings and building equipment are depreciated over periods ranging from 10 to 50 years. Depreciation expense directly attributed to the manufacturing of the Company’s products is included in cost of goods sold. Depreciation expense related to non-manufacturing activities is included in selling and administrative. Depreciation expense includes the amortization of assets recorded under capital leases. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Costs assigned to PP&E of acquired businesses are based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The Company evaluates the recoverability of PP&E based on undiscounted projected cash flows, excluding interest and taxes, when factors indicate that impairment may exist. If impairment exists, the asset is written down to fair value. Derivative Instruments The Company uses forward exchange contracts, options and commodity forward contracts to manage risks generally associated with foreign exchange rate and commodity market volatility. Derivative financial instruments are included on the balance sheet at fair value. When appropriate, derivative instruments are designated as and are effective as hedges, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. If the underlying hedged transaction ceases to exist, all changes in fair value of the related derivatives that have not been settled are recognized in current earnings. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes and is not a party to leveraged derivatives. Cash flows from short-term forward exchange contracts not designated as hedges are classified as a financing activity. Cash flows of commodity forward contracts are classified as operating activities. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Generally accepted accounting principles defines a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop assumptions. The carrying amounts reported for cash and short-term loans approximate fair value. In addition, carrying amounts approximate fair value for certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest 168 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions rates. Fair values for the Company’s significant fixed rate debt obligations are generally based on published market quotations. The Company’s derivative assets and liabilities consist of natural gas forwards and foreign exchange option and forward contracts. The Company uses an income approach to valuing these contracts. Natural gas forward rates and foreign exchange rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models. These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds, and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications of prior years’ data have been made to conform to the current year presentation. New Accounting Standards Revenue from Contracts with Customers - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which delayed by one year the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard, which will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting. Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs - In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge (asset). In the third quarter 2015, the Company elected to adopt this new guidance. As a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2015-03 certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations for any period. Previously, the Company had classified these debt issuance costs as an asset in “other assets”. Accordingly, the Company has revised the classification to report these debt issuance costs under the “long-term debt” caption on the balance sheet. For the period ended December 31, 2014, the total of debt issuance costs that was previously classified as “other assets” was $15 million. Business Combinations – In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments”. This standard allows for the acquirer to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting periods in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The Company elected to adopt this new guidance as of the third quarter of 2015. Deferred Taxes – In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes”. This standard requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The Company elected to adopt this new guidance prospectively in the fourth quarter of 2015. Prior periods were not retrospectively adjusted. Participation in OI Inc. Stock Option Plans and Other Stock Based Compensation The Company participates in the equity compensation plans of OI Inc. under which employees of the Company may be granted options to purchase common shares of OI Inc., restricted common shares of OI Inc., or restricted share units of OI Inc. 169 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions Stock Options In general, subject to change in control, options become exercisable 25% per year beginning on the first anniversary of grant. No options may be exercised in whole or in part during the first year after the date granted. In general, options expire following termination of employment or the seventh anniversary of the option grant. The fair value of options is amortized over the vesting periods which range from one to four years. Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units Shares granted after March 21, 2005 and prior to 2011, vest 25% per year beginning on the first anniversary and unvested shares are forfeited upon termination of employment. Restricted share units granted to employees after 2010 vest 25% per year beginning on the first anniversary. Holders of vested restricted share units receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each unit. Granted but unvested restricted share units are forfeited upon termination, unless certain retirement criteria are met. Restricted share units granted to directors vest after one year. The fair value of the restricted shares and restricted share units is equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of restricted shares and restricted share units granted after March 21, 2005, is amortized over the vesting periods which range from one to four years. Performance Vested Restricted Share Units Performance vested restricted share units vest on January 1 of the third year following the year in which they are granted. Holders of vested units may receive up to 2 shares of OI Inc.’s common stock for each unit, depending upon the attainment of consolidated performance goals established by the Compensation Committee of OI Inc.’s Board of Directors. If minimum goals are not met, no shares will be issued. Granted but unvested restricted share units are forfeited upon termination of employment, unless certain retirement criteria are met. The fair value of each performance vested restricted share unit is equal to the product of the fair value of OI Inc.’s common stock on the date of grant and the estimated number of shares into which the performance vested restricted share unit will be converted. The fair value of performance vested restricted share units is amortized ratably over the vesting period. Should the estimated number of shares into which the performance vested restricted share unit will be converted change, an adjustment will be recorded to recognize the accumulated difference in amortization between the revised and previous estimates. As discussed in Note 21, costs incurred under these plans by OI Inc. related to stock-based compensation awards granted directly to the Company’s employees are included in the allocable costs charged to the Company and other operating subsidiaries of OI Inc. on an intercompany basis. 2. Segment Information The Company has four reportable segments based on its geographic locations: Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia Pacific. In connection with the Company’s acquisition (the “Vitro Acquisition”) of the food and beverage glass container business of Vitro S.A.B. de C.V. and its subsidiaries as conducted in the United States, Mexico and Bolivia (the “Vitro Business”) on September 1, 2015 (see Note 17), the Company has renamed the former South America segment to the Latin America segment. This change in segment name was made to reflect the addition of the Mexican and Bolivian operations from the Vitro Acquisition into the former South America segment. The acquired Vitro food and beverage glass container distribution business located in the United States is included in the North American operating segment. These four segments are aligned with the Company’s internal approach to managing, reporting, and evaluating performance of its global glass operations. Certain assets and activities not directly related to one of the regions or to glass manufacturing are reported 170 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions within Other. These include licensing, equipment manufacturing, global engineering, and certain equity investments. The Company’s measure of profit for its reportable segments is segment operating profit, which consists of consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest income, interest expense, and provision for income taxes and excludes amounts related to certain items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations. The Company’s management uses segment operating profit, in combination with selected cash flow information, to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. Segment operating profit for reportable segments includes an allocation of some corporate expenses based on both a percentage of sales and direct billings based on the costs of specific services provided.

In 2013, changes were made to the VeMe joint venture agreement that resulted in the Company relinquishing control of the joint venture and, therefore, deconsolidating the entity. No gain or loss was recognized related to the deconsolidation as the fair value of the entity was equal to the carrying amount of the entity’s assets and liabilities. The fair value, which the Company classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, was computed using a discounted cash flow analysis based on projected future cash flows of the joint venture.

There is a difference of approximately $18 million as of December 31, 2015, between the amount at which certain investments are carried and the amount of underlying equity in net assets. The portion of the difference related to inventory or amortizable assets is amortized as a reduction of the equity earnings. The remaining difference is considered goodwill. 5.

Goodwill for the Asia Pacific segment is $0 and net of accumulated impairment losses of $1,135 million as of December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as of October 1 (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise) using a two-step process. Step 1 compares the business enterprise value (“BEV”) of each reporting unit 174 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions with its carrying value. The BEV is computed based on estimated future cash flows, discounted at the weighted average cost of capital of a hypothetical third-party buyer. If the BEV is less than the carrying value for any reporting unit, then Step 2 must be performed. Step 2 compares the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of goodwill. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value will be recorded as an impairment loss. The calculations of the BEV in Step 1 and the implied fair value of goodwill in Step 2 are based on significant unobservable inputs, such as price trends, customer demand, material costs, discount rates and asset replacement costs, and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company completed its annual impairment testing and determined that no impairment existed. Intangible assets On September 1, 2015, the Company acquired customer list intangibles as part of the Vitro Acquisition (see Note 17).

Estimated amortization related to intangible assets through 2020 is as follows: 2016, $42 million; 2017, $45 million; 2018, $44 million; 2019, $44 million; and 2020, $42 million. No impairment existed on these assets at December 31, 2015. The Company has determined that the fair value measurements related to the customer list intangibles are based on significant unobservable inputs and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. 6.

Derivative Instruments The Company has certain derivative assets and liabilities which consist of natural gas forwards and foreign exchange option and forward contracts. The Company uses an income approach to value these contracts. Natural gas forward rates and foreign exchange rates are the significant inputs into the valuation models. These inputs are observable in active markets over the terms of the instruments the Company holds, and accordingly, the Company classifies its derivative assets and liabilities as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The Company also evaluates counterparty risk in determining fair values. Commodity Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges In North America, the Company enters into commodity forward contracts related to forecasted natural gas requirements, the objectives of which are to limit the effects of fluctuations in the future market price paid for natural gas and the related volatility in cash flows. The Company continually evaluates the natural gas market and related price risk and periodically enters into commodity forward contracts in order to hedge a portion of its usage requirements. The majority of the sales volume in North America is tied to customer contracts that contain provisions that pass the price of natural gas to the customer. In certain of these contracts, the customer has the option of fixing the natural gas price component for a specified period of time. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had entered into commodity forward contracts covering approximately 7,300,000 MM BTUs and 450,000 MM BTUs, respectively, primarily related to customer requests to lock the price of natural gas. The Company accounts for the above forward contracts as cash flow hedges at December 31, 2015 and recognizes them on the balance sheet at fair value. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as, and meets the required criteria for, a cash flow hedge is recorded in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income component of share owners’ equity (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the underlying hedged item affects earnings. An unrecognized loss of $4 million at December 31, 2015 and an unrecognized loss of less than $1 million at December 31, 2014 related to the commodity forward contracts were included in Accumulated OCI, and will be reclassified into earnings over the next twelve to twenty-four months. Any material portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge that is deemed to be ineffective is recognized in current earnings. The ineffectiveness related to these natural gas hedges for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was not material. 176 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions The effect of the commodity forward contracts on the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 is as follows: Amount of Gain (Loss) recognized in OCI on Commodity Forward Contracts (Effective Portion) 2014 2013 2015 Amount of Gain (Loss) reclassified from Accumulated OCI into Income (reported in cost of goods sold) (Effective Portion) 2014 2015 2013 $ (4) $ 3 $ 1 $ (1) $ 2 $ (1) Foreign Exchange Derivative Contracts and not Designated as Hedging Instruments The Company may enter into short-term forward exchange or option agreements to purchase foreign currencies at set rates in the future. These agreements are used to limit exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for significant planned purchases of fixed assets or commodities that are denominated in currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. The Company may also use forward exchange agreements to offset the foreign currency risk for receivables and payables, including intercompany receivables, payables and loans, not denominated in, or indexed to, their functional currencies. The Company records these short-term forward exchange agreements on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value are recognized in current earnings. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had outstanding forward exchange and option agreements denominated in various currencies covering the equivalent of approximately $790 million and $524 million, respectively, related primarily to intercompany transactions and loans. The effect of the foreign exchange derivative contracts on the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 is as follows: Location of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Foreign Exchange Contracts Other expense . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ Balance Sheet Classification Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Foreign Exchange Contracts 2014 2013 2015 10 $ (8) $ (28) The Company records the fair values of derivative financial instruments on the balance sheet as follows: (a) receivables if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity within one year, (b) deposits, receivables, and other assets if the instrument has a positive fair value and maturity after one year, and (c) other accrued liabilities or other liabilities (current) if the instrument has a negative fair value and maturity within one year.

Restructuring Accruals, Asset Impairments and Other Costs Related to Closed Facilities The Company continually reviews its manufacturing footprint and operating cost structure and may decide to close operations or reduce headcount to gain efficiencies, integrate acquired operations, reduce future expenses and other market factors. The Company incurs costs associated with these actions including employee severance and benefits, other exit costs such as those related to contract terminations, and asset impairment charges. The Company also may incur other costs related to closed facilities including environmental remediation, clean up, dismantling and preparation for sale or other disposition. The Company accounts for restructuring and other costs under applicable provisions of generally accepted accounting principles. Charges for employee severance and related benefits are generally accrued based on contractual arrangements with employees or their representatives. Other exit costs are accrued based on the estimated cost to settle related contractual arrangements. Estimated environmental remediation costs are accrued when specific claims have been received or are probable of being received. The Company’s decisions to curtail selected production capacity have resulted in write downs of certain long-lived assets to the extent their carrying amounts exceeded fair value or fair value less cost to sell. The Company classified the significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of the impaired assets as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as set forth in the general accounting principles for fair value measurements. When a decision is made to take these actions, the Company manages and accounts for them programmatically apart from the on-going operations of the business. Information related to major programs (as in the case of the European Asset Optimization and Asia Pacific Restructuring programs below) are presented separately. Minor initiatives are presented on a combined basis as Other Restructuring Actions. These restructuring initiatives taken by the Company are not related to the European Asset Optimization program or the Asia Pacific restructuring plan. When charges related to major programs are completed, remaining accrual balances are classified with Other Restructuring Actions. European Asset Optimization Since 2011, the Company has implemented the European Asset Optimization program to increase the efficiency and capability of its European operations and to better align its European manufacturing footprint with market and customer needs. This program involved making additional investments in certain facilities and addressing assets with higher cost structures. As part of this program, the Company recorded charges of $0 million in 2015, $1 million in 2014 and $16 million in 2013 for employee costs, write-down of assets, and environmental remediation related to decisions to close furnaces and manufacturing facilities in Europe. The 178 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions Company does not expect to execute any further actions under this program and recorded total cumulative charges of $127 million. Asia Pacific Restructuring Since 2011, the Company has implemented a restructuring plan in its Asia Pacific segment, primarily related to aligning its supply base with lower demand in the region. As part of this plan, the Company recorded charges of $5 million, $73 million and $49 million for the years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, for employee costs, write-down of assets, and pension charges related to furnace closures and additional restructuring activities. The Company has recorded total cumulative charges of $220 million under this program. Other Restructuring Actions The Company took certain other restructuring actions and recorded charges in 2015 of $58 million. These charges primarily related to employee costs, write-down of assets and other exit costs totaling $14 million for a plant closure and furnace closure in Latin America, $38 million for a plant closure in North America and $6 million for other restructuring actions. In 2014, the Company took certain other restructuring actions and recorded charges of $2 million for employee costs related to global headcount reduction initiatives. In 2013, there were charges of $16 million for employee costs related to the closure of flat glass operations in Latin America, $13 million for employee costs related to global headcount reduction initiatives, and $3 million for miscellaneous other costs.

Pension Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits Pension Benefit Plans The Company participates in OI Inc.’s defined benefit pension plans for a substantial number of employees located in the United States. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and on length of service for hourly employees. OI Inc.’s policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. Independent actuaries determine pension costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc. included in the plans; however, accumulated benefit obligation information and plan assets pertaining to each subsidiary have not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated benefit obligation and the plan assets related to the pension plans for domestic employees have been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc. Net expense to results of operations for the Company’s allocated portion of the domestic pension costs amounted to $24 million in 2015, $19 million in 2014 and $48 million in 2013. OI Inc. also sponsors several defined contribution plans for all salaried and hourly U.S. employees of the Company. Participation is voluntary and participants’ contributions are based on their compensation. OI Inc. matches contributions of participants, up to various limits, in substantially all plans. OI Inc. charges the Company for its share of the match. The Company’s share of the contributions to these plans amounted to $27 million in 2015, $17 million in 2014 and $13 million in 2013. The Company also has defined benefit pension plans covering a substantial number of employees in several non-U.S. jurisdictions. Benefits generally are based on compensation for salaried employees and on length of service for hourly employees. The Company’s policy is to fund pension plans such that sufficient assets will be available to meet future benefit requirements. The Company’s defined benefit pension plans use a December 31 measurement date.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions For 2015, the Company’s weighted average expected long-term rate of return on assets was 7.23% for the non-U.S. plans. In developing this assumption, the Company evaluated input from its third party pension plan asset managers, including their review of asset class return expectations and long-term inflation assumptions. The Company also considered its historical 10-year average return (through December 31, 2014), which was in line with the expected long-term rate of return assumption for 2015. It is the Company’s policy to invest pension plan assets in a diversified portfolio consisting of an array of asset classes within established target asset allocation ranges. The investment risk of the assets is limited by appropriate diversification both within and between asset classes. The assets of the group trust and the Company’s non-U.S. plans are primarily invested in a broad mix of domestic and international equities, domestic and international bonds, and real estate, subject to the target asset allocation ranges. The assets are managed with a view to ensuring that sufficient liquidity will be available to meet expected cash flow requirements. The investment valuation policy of the Company is to value investments at fair value. All investments are valued at their respective net asset values. Equity securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last reported sales price on their principal exchange on valuation date or official close for certain markets. Fixed income investments are valued by an independent pricing service. Investments in registered investment companies or collective pooled funds are valued at their respective net asset values. Short-term investments are stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The fair value of real estate is determined by periodic appraisals. The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s pension plan assets at fair value as of December 31, 2015 and 2014: 2015 2014 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Target Allocation Cash and cash equivalents . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 30 $ — $ — $ 14 $ — $ — Equity securities . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The change in the fair value of Level 3 pension plan assets due to actual return on those assets was immaterial in 2015. In order to maintain minimum funding requirements, the Company is required to make contributions to its non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans of approximately $22 million in 2016. 183 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc.

Benefits provided by the Company for hourly retirees are determined by collective bargaining. Employees are generally eligible for benefits upon retirement and completion of a specified number of years of creditable service. Independent actuaries determine postretirement benefit costs for each subsidiary of OI Inc.; however, accumulated postretirement benefit obligation information pertaining to each subsidiary has not been separately determined. As such, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation has been retained by another subsidiary of OI Inc. The Company’s net periodic postretirement benefit cost, as allocated by OI Inc., for domestic employees was $2 million, $1 million, and $3 million at December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively. The Company also has postretirement benefit plans covering substantially all employees in Canada.

In determining the requirement for a valuation allowance, the historical and projected financial results of the legal entity or consolidated group recording the net deferred tax asset is considered, along with other positive and negative evidence. In certain foreign jurisdictions, the Company’s analysis indicates that it has cumulative losses in recent years. This is considered significant negative evidence which is objective and verifiable and, therefore, difficult to overcome. However, the cumulative loss position is not solely determinative and, accordingly, the Company considers all other available positive and negative evidence in its analysis. Based on its analysis, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the portion of deferred tax assets where based on the weight of available evidence it is unlikely to realize those deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2015, before valuation allowance, the Company had unused foreign tax credits of $389 million expiring in 2017 through 2025, and research tax credit of $14 million expiring from 2019 to 2035, which will be available to offset future income tax. Approximately $145 million of the deferred tax assets related to operating and capital loss carryforwards can be carried over indefinitely, with the remaining $151 million expiring between 2016 and 2035. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s equity in the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which income taxes had not been provided approximated $2.5 billion. The Company intends to reinvest these earnings indefinitely in the non-U.S. operations. It is not practicable to estimate the U.S. and foreign tax which would be 188 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions payable should these earnings be distributed. Deferred taxes are provided for earnings of non-U.S. jurisdictions when the Company plans to remit those earnings. The Company is included in OI Inc.’s consolidated tax returns for U.S. federal and certain state income tax purposes. The consolidated group has net operating losses, capital losses, alternative minimum tax credits, foreign tax credits and research and development credits available to offset future U.S. Federal income tax. Income taxes are allocated to the Company on a basis consistent with separate returns. The Company has recognized tax benefits as a result of incentives in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions which expire in 2016. The Company records a liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions. The Company accrues interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as a component of its income tax expense.

The Company believes that it is reasonable possible that the estimated liability could decrease up to $47 million within the next 12 months. This is primarily the result of audit settlements or statute expirations in several taxing jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in various tax jurisdictions in which it operates, including Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, China, Canada, Colombia, France, Germany, Indonesia, and Italy. The years under examination range from 2004 through 2013. The Company believes that there are no jurisdictions in which the outcome of unresolved issues or claims is likely to be material to the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company further believes that adequate provisions for all income tax uncertainties have been made. During 2015, the Company concluded income tax audits in several jurisdictions, including Argentina, Germany, Italy, Peru and Poland. 189 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc.

The proceeds from the Agreement were used to repay all outstanding amounts under the Previous Agreement and the 7.375% senior notes due 2016. The Company recorded $42 million of additional interest charges for note repurchase premiums and the related write-off of unamortized finance fees in 2015. In connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015 (see Note 17), the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the Agreement, which provided for additional incremental availability under the incremental dollar cap in the Agreement of up to $1,250 million. In addition, in connection with the closing of the Vitro Acquisition, on September 1, 2015, the Company entered into the First Incremental Amendment to the Agreement (the “Incremental Amendment”) pursuant to which the Company incurred $1,250 million of senior secured incremental term loan facilities, comprised of (i) a $675 million term loan A facility (the “incremental term loan A facility”) on substantially the same terms and conditions (including as to maturity) as the term loan A facility in the Agreement and (ii) a $575 million term loan B facility (the “incremental term loan B facility”) maturing seven years after the closing of the Vitro Acquisition using its incremental capacity under the Agreement. 190 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions At December 31, 2015, the Agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 2 and the Incremental Amendment (the “Amended Agreement”), includes a $300 million revolving credit facility, a $600 million multicurrency revolving credit facility, a $1,575 million term loan A facility ($1,546 million net of debt issuance costs), and a €279 million term loan A facility ($301 million net of debt issuance costs), each of which has a final maturity date of April 22, 2020. The Amended Agreement also includes a $575 million term loan B facility ($563 million net of debt issuance costs) with a final maturity date of September 1, 2022. At December 31, 2015, the Company had unused credit of $872 million available under the Amended Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Amended Agreement at December 31, 2015 was 2.37%. The Amended Agreement contains various covenants that restrict, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company to incur certain liens, make certain investments, become liable under contingent obligations in certain defined instances only, make restricted payments, make certain asset sales within guidelines and limits, engage in certain affiliate transactions, participate in sale and leaseback financing arrangements, alter its fundamental business, and amend certain subordinated debt obligations. The Amended Agreement also contains one financial maintenance covenant, a Total Leverage Ratio, that requires the Company as of the last day of a fiscal quarter not to exceed a ratio of 4.0x calculated by dividing consolidated total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, by consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Amended Agreement. The maximum Total Leverage Ratio is subject to an increase of 0.5x for the four fiscal quarters commencing on and following the consummation of certain qualifying acquisitions as defined in the Amended Agreement. In connection with the Vitro Acquisition on September 1, 2015, the Company elected to increase such maximum Total Leverage Ratio to 4.5x for the four fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2016. The Total Leverage Ratio could restrict the ability of the Company to undertake additional financing or acquisitions to the extent that such financing or acquisitions would cause the Total Leverage Ratio to exceed the specified maximum. On February 3, 2016, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the Amended Agreement, which provided for an increase in the maximum Total Leverage Ratio for purposes of the financial covenant in the Amended Agreement of up to 5.0x for the three fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2016, 4.50x for the four fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2017 and stepping down to 4.0x for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2017 and each fiscal quarter ending thereafter. Failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4. In such an event, the Company could not request borrowings under the revolving facility, and all amounts outstanding under the Amended Agreement, together with accrued interest, could then be declared immediately due and payable. If an event of default occurs under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4 and the lenders cause all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Amended Agreement to become due and payable, this would result in a default under a number of other outstanding debt securities and could lead to an acceleration of obligations related to these debt securities. As of December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and restrictions in the Amended Agreement. In addition, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance and that its ability to borrow funds under the Amended Agreement as amended by Amendment No. 4 will not be adversely affected by the covenants and restrictions. The interest rates on borrowings under the Amended Agreement are, at the Company’s option, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the Amended Agreement, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for the term loan A facility and the revolving credit facility is linked to the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio and ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and from 0.25% to 0.75% for Base Rate loans. In addition, a facility fee is payable on the revolving credit facility commitments ranging from 0.20% to 191 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Tabular data dollars in millions 0.30% per annum linked to the Total Leverage Ratio. The applicable margin for the term loan B facility is 2.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans and 1.75% for Base Rate loans. The incremental term loan B facility is subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. Borrowings under the Amended Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets, excluding real estate and certain other excluded assets, of certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries. Borrowings are also secured by a pledge of intercompany debt and equity investments in certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and, in the case of foreign borrowings, of stock of certain foreign subsidiaries. All borrowings under the Amended Agreement are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company for the term of the Amended Agreement. Also, in connection with the Vitro Acquisition, during August 2015, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $700 million that bear interest at 5.875% and are due August 15, 2023 (the “Senior Notes due 2023”) and senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 6.375% and are due August 15, 2025 (together with the Senior Notes due 2023, the “2015 Senior Notes”). The 2015 Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company‘s domestic subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the 2015 Senior Notes, after deducting the debt discount and debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $972 million and were used to finance, in part, the Vitro Acquisition. During December 2014, the Company issued senior notes with a face value of $500 million that bear interest at 5.00% and are due January 15, 2022 (the “Senior Notes due 2022”). The Company also issued senior notes with a face value of $300 million that bear interest at 5.375% and are due January 15, 2025 (together with the Senior Notes due 2022, the “2014 Senior Notes”). The 2014 Senior Notes were issued via a private placement and are guaranteed by certain of the Company‘s domestic subsidiaries. The net proceeds from the 2014 Senior Notes, after deducting debt issuance costs, totaled approximately $790 million and were used to purchase in a tender offer $611 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.00% 2015 Exchangeable Senior Notes. The remaining balance of the Exchangeable Senior Notes was repaid in the second quarter of 2015. The Company has a €185 million European accounts receivable securitization program, which extends through September 2016, subject to periodic renewal of backup credit lines. Information related to the Company’s accounts receivable securitization program as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows: 2015 2014 Balance (included in short-term loans) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ Weighted average interest rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 158 $ 1.21 % 122 1.41 % The carrying amounts reported for the accounts receivable securitization program, and certain long-term debt obligations subject to frequently redetermined interest rates, approximate fair value.

Contingencies Certain litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are nonroutine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief. The Company records a liability for such matters when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Recorded amounts are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the factors upon which the estimates are based including additional information, negotiations, settlements, and other events. The ultimate legal and financial liability of the Company in respect to this pending litigation cannot reasonably be estimated. However, the Company believes, based on its examination and review of such matters and experience to date, that such ultimate liability will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition. The Company conducted an internal investigation into conduct in certain of its overseas operations that may have violated the anti-bribery provisions of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), the FCPA’s books and records and internal controls provisions, the Company’s own internal policies, and various local laws. In October 2012, the Company voluntarily disclosed these matters to the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). On July 18, 2013, the Company received a letter from the DOJ indicating that it presently did not intend to take any enforcement action and is closing its inquiry into the matter. As disclosed in previous periods, the Company is presently unable to predict the duration, scope or result of an investigation by the SEC, if any, or whether the SEC will commence any legal action. The SEC has a broad range of civil sanctions under the FCPA and other laws and regulations including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, disgorgement, penalties, and modifications to business practices. The Company could also be subject to investigation and sanctions outside the United States. While the Company is currently unable to quantify the impact of any potential sanctions or remedial measures, it does not expect such actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, results of operations or financial condition. Other litigation is pending against the Company, in many cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to the business of the Company and in others presenting allegations that are non-routine and involve compensatory, punitive or treble damage claims as well as other types of relief. The Company records a liability for such matters when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Recorded amounts are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the factors upon which the estimates are based, including additional information, negotiations, settlements and other events. 193 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc.

Business Combinations On September 1, 2015, the Company completed the Vitro Acquisition in a cash transaction valued at approximately $2.297 billion, subject to a working capital adjustment and certain other adjustments. The Vitro Business in Mexico is the largest supplier of glass containers in that country, manufacturing glass containers across multiple end uses, including food, soft drinks, beer, wine and spirits. The Vitro Acquisition included five food and beverage glass container plants in Mexico, a plant in Bolivia and a North American distribution business, and provided the Company with a competitive position in the glass packaging market in Mexico. The results of the Vitro Business have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since September 1, 2015 and contributed approximately $258 million of net sales and $46 million of segment operating profit through December 31, 2015. Vitro’s food and beverage glass container operations in Mexico and Bolivia are included in the Latin American operating segment while its distribution business is included in the North American operating segment. The Company financed the Vitro Acquisition with the proceeds from its recently completed senior notes offering, cash on hand and the incremental term loan facilities (see Note 11). The total purchase price will be allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based upon their respective fair values. The purchase agreement contains customary provisions for working capital adjustments, which the Company expects to resolve with the seller in the first half of 2016. The purchase price allocation has not been finalized as of December 31, 2015, because the Company has not yet completed its review of the asset and liability values and related amortization and depreciation periods. The Company expects that the purchase price allocation process will be completed no later than the third quarter of 2016. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed on September 1, 2015 and subsequent adjustments identified through the ongoing purchase price allocation process and recorded through the measurement period: September 1, 2015 Measurement Period Adjustments December 31, 2015 Cash . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $ Other current assets . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The customer list intangible asset includes the Company’s established relationships with its customers and the ability of these customers to generate future economic profits for the Company. The value assigned to customer list intangibles is based on the present value of future earnings attributable to the asset group after recognition of required returns to other contributory assets. Recognized goodwill is attributable to the assembled workforce, expected synergies and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Vitro Acquisition goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. 196 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc.

Discontinued Operations On March 10, 2015, a tribunal constituted under the auspices of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (“ICSID”) awarded a subsidiary of the Company more than $455 million in an international arbitration against Venezuela related to the 2010 expropriation of the Company’s majority interest in two plants in that country. On July 10, 2015, ICSID confirmed that it had received from Venezuela a petition to annul the award. The annulment process can take up to several years to complete. The Company is unable at this stage to predict the amount or timing of compensation it will ultimately receive under the award. Therefore, the Company has not recognized this award in its financial statements. A separate arbitration is pending with ICSID to obtain compensation primarily for third-party minority shareholders’ lost interests in the two expropriated plants. The loss from discontinued operations of $4 million, $4 million and $10 million for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, relates to ongoing costs for the Venezuelan expropriation. 20. Guarantees of Debt OI Group and the Company guarantee OI Inc.’s senior debentures on a subordinated basis. The fair value of the OI Inc. debt being guaranteed was $277 at December 31, 2015. 197 Owens-Brockway Glass Container Inc.

Related Party Transactions Charges for administrative services are allocated to the Company by OI Inc. based on an annual utilization level. Such services include compensation and benefits administration, payroll processing, use of certain general accounting systems, auditing, income tax planning and compliance, and treasury services. Allocated costs also include charges associated with OI Inc.’s equity compensation plans. A substantial number of the options, restricted share units and performance vested restricted share units granted under these plans have been granted to key employees of another subsidiary of OI Inc., some of whose compensation costs, including stock-based compensation, are included in an allocation of costs to all operating subsidiaries of OI Inc., including the Company. Management believes that such transactions are on terms no less favorable to the Company than those that could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
