The additional 4?% Senior Notes will be an add-on issuance under Silgan’s indenture for its existing $400 million aggregate principal amount of 4?% Senior Notes due 2028. Silgan intends to use the net proceeds from these notes offerings to prepay most of its outstanding U.S. A term loans under its senior secured credit facility.

In connection with this offering, a stabilizing manager (or persons acting on behalf of the stabilizing manager) may over-allot the Euro denominated notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Euro denominated notes during the stabilization period at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However, stabilization action may not necessarily occur. Any stabilization action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the terms of the offer of the Euro denominated notes is made and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than 30 calendar days after the date on which Silgan receives the proceeds from the issuance of the Euro denominated notes or no later than 60 calendar days after the date of allotment of the Euro denominated notes, whichever is the earlier.
