    This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on
Schedule TO (the "Schedule TO") filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on April 10, 2000, by Rexam Acquisition Subsidiary Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Purchaser") and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Rexam
PLC, a public limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales
("Parent"). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all
the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Shares"),
of American National Can Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at
a purchase price of $18 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest
thereon, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to
Purchase dated April 10, 2000 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and in the related
Letter of Transmittal.

ITEM 5. PAST CONTACTS, TRANSACTIONS, NEGOTIATIONS AND AGREEMENTS.

    Section 10 of the Offer to Purchase ("Source and Amount of Funds") is hereby
amended by inserting the following three paragraphs after the second paragraph
thereof.

    As of the date of the Credit Agreement, the lenders' Tranche A commitments
totaled U.S. $1,600,000,000 and Tranche B commitments totaled euro
2,000,000,000. Tranche A has a 364-day term with a "term-out" option by which
the maturity can be extended until 30 months following the date of the Credit
Agreement. Tranche B has a term of five years. Both tranches are multi-currency
revolving credit facilities. Tranche A will become a term loan facility if the
term-out option is exercised.

    The interest rate on loans under the Credit Agreement is generally the
aggregate of Margin plus LIBOR or, in the case of loans denominated in euros,
EURIBOR. "Margin" means 1% per annum for Tranche A borrowings and, initially,
0.95% per annum for Tranche B borrowings. Margin for Tranche B borrowings is
subject to adjustment within a range of 0.55% to 0.95%, depending upon Rexam's
ratio of Net Debt (as defined) to EBITDA (each as defined in the Credit
Agreement).

    There are standard commitment fees, arranger and agent's fees payable in
connection with the Credit Agreement. The obligations of the lenders under the
Credit Agreement are subject to there not being a material adverse effect with
respect to Rexam. At present Rexam does not have any alternative financing
plans. Rexam intends to repay borrowings under the Credit Agreement with cash
flows from operations.

ITEM 7. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

    Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase ("Contacts and Transactions with the
Company; Background to the Offer") is hereby amended by replacing the first
paragraph thereof with the following:

    In April 1999, following an expression of interest by Rexam, the Principal
Stockholder's financial advisors invited Rexam to submit an offer for the
Company. On April 21, 1999, and April 28, 1999, respectively, the Chief
Executive Officer of Rexam proposed to the Chief Executive Officer of the
Principal Stockholder a beverage can joint venture between Rexam and the
Company. No agreement was reached on this proposal. Rexam conducted due
diligence on the Company during May 1999. On June 1, 1999, the Chief Executive
Officer of Rexam sent a letter to the Chief Executive Officer of the Principal
Stockholder making an offer to purchase the Company on the basis of a $1.8
billion enterprise value. The Principal Stockholder declined such offer on the
basis of price. The Principal Stockholder subsequently pursued an initial public
offering of the Company, which took place on August 2, 1999 (the "Initial Public
Offering").

ITEM 11. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

    Section 8 of the Offer to Purchase ("Certain Information Concerning the
Company") is hereby amended by inserting the following after the table captioned
"American National Can Group, Inc. Selected Consolidated Financial Information":

    RECENT FINANCIAL RESULTS. On April 25, 2000, the Company issued a press
    release announcing its unaudited financial results for the first quarter of
    2000. The Company reported a net loss in that period of $115,974,000 and a
    net loss per common share of $2.11. The Company's results for the first
    quarter of 2000 are contained in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
    filed with the Commission on April 25, 2000.
