Inclusion of this series in the Exchange Offer assumes the Settlement Date occurs before the maturity date of this series.

Eligible Holders who tendered and did not validly withdraw Existing Notes at or prior to the Early Participation Time will be eligible to receive, in exchange for each US$1,000 principal amount of Existing Notes, (a) US$1,000 principal amount of New Notes of the applicable series and (b) US$1.00 in cash.

The Withdrawal Time (as defined in the Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement (defined below)) has passed. Tenders of any particular series of Existing Notes made at any time at or before the Withdrawal Time may not be withdrawn, except in certain limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights may be required by law.

The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 5, 2019, unless extended (such date and time with respect to any Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, as the same may be extended for such Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, the "Expiration Time"). Eligible Holders who validly tender and who do not validly withdraw Existing Notes after the Early Participation Time but at or prior to the Expiration Time, and whose Existing Notes are accepted for exchange, will be eligible to receive, in exchange for each US$1,000 principal amount of Existing Notes, (a) US$970 principal amount of New Notes of the applicable series and (b) US$1.00 in cash.

All Eligible Holders whose Existing Notes are validly tendered and accepted for exchange in the applicable Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation will also receive the applicable accrued and unpaid Interest and Rounding Cash Payment (as defined in the Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement) in cash.

Each Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation is subject to the satisfaction of conditions set forth in the Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement including, among other things, the consummation of the Transaction (as defined in the Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement) (the "Transaction Condition") which condition may not be waived or amended and the completion of every other Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation. AFUI or Bemis may generally waive any such conditions, with the exception of the Transaction Condition, with respect to their applicable Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations in their sole discretion at or prior to the Expiration Time. Each of AFUI and Bemis expressly reserve the right, subject to applicable law, in their sole discretion to terminate the applicable Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations and not accept any Existing Amcor Notes or Existing Bemis Notes, respectively. The complete terms of the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations are set out in a confidential exchange offer memorandum and consent solicitation statement, dated May 8, 2019 (the "Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement").

AFUI and Bemis have not registered, and will not register, the New Notes under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), any state securities laws or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. The New Notes may not be offered or issued in the United States or to any "U.S. persons" (as defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act), or any person acting for the account or benefit of U.S. persons, except pursuant to an exemption from, or a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The New Notes will be offered for exchange only to: (1) "qualified institutional buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) in the United States; (2) persons that are not, and are not acting for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act and, if resident or located in a member state of the European Economic Area, persons who are (a) 'qualified investors' within the meaning of Article 2(1)(e) of Directive 2003/71/EC and (b) not retail investors. Only holders of Existing Notes who complete and return an eligibility certification ("Eligible Holders") are authorized to receive and review the Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement and to participate in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations. No assurance can be given that the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations will be completed.
