              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  (UNAUDITED)

1.   ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
Consolidated Container Company LLC ("the Company") have been prepared in
accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements
required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and therefore
do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete annual financial statements. However, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of usual recurring
adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation) are reflected in the
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The
condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 is derived from
audited financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. Results of operations for the
three months and six months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2000.

    On July 2, 1999, the plastic packaging assets formerly held by Franklin
Plastics, Inc., a subsidiary of Suiza Foods Corporation ("Franklin Plastics"),
and former plastic packaging companies, Reid Plastics, Inc. and its subsidiaries
("Reid Plastics") and Plastic Containers, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Plastic
Containers") were contributed and merged into the Company. The transactions were
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting with Reid Plastics being
considered the accounting acquiror. Accordingly, financial information prior to
July 2, 1999 pertains to Reid Plastics only and is referred to as the
Predecessor period and financial information subsequent to July 2, 1999 is
referred to as the Successor period and includes consolidated operations.

    The Company is wholly owned by Consolidated Container Holdings LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company ("Consolidated Container Holdings").
Consolidated Container Holdings is 30.4% owned by Reid Plastics Holdings, Inc.
and 20.4% owned by Vestar Packaging LLC, each of which are controlled by Vestar
Capital Partners III, L.P. and its affiliates, and 48.9% owned by a subsidiary
of Suiza Foods Corporation.

    Certain amounts in the 1999 financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the 2000 presentation.

2.   NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

    In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements",
("SAB No. 101"), which summarizes the application of generally accepted
accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements and which
is effective for fiscal year end 2000 financial statements. The Company has not
yet determined the impact SAB No. 101 will have on its consolidated financial
position or results of operations.

4.   RESTRUCTURING ACCRUALS

    In connection with the 1999 merger, the Company developed a restructuring
plan to pursue opportunities for cost reduction and operating synergies through
the consolidation of administrative and manufacturing functions and facilities.
Through purchase accounting, the Company recorded a restructuring accrual of
$4,616,000, which includes $1,914,000 for severance and other personnel-related
costs and $2,702,000 for facility closing costs in connection with the closing
of certain manufacturing facilities. In the third quarter of 1999, the Company
recognized a restructuring charge of $1,541,000 for severance and other
personnel-related costs relative to the closing of the Reid Plastics corporate
administrative and accounting office in California and the consolidation of
those operations with other existing functions. In the fourth quarter of 1999,
the Company recognized a restructuring charge of $7,225,000 in connection with
plans to close certain manufacturing facilities. Of this charge, $611,000
represents severance and other personnel-related costs and $6,614,000 represents
remaining commitments under noncancellable operating leases and other facility
closing costs.

    In 1997, the Company recorded a restructuring charge representing a
provision for loss on closed facilities subject to operating leases, related to
the closure of a manufacturing facility, warehouses and an administrative
facility. In the three month period ended June 30, 2000, the Company recognized
a restructuring charge reversal of $2,238,000 in connection with a sublease
arrangement related to the manufacturing facility.

    Reconciliation of the restructuring accruals for the 6 months ended were as
follows:

5.   SUBSIDIARY SUMMARY CONSOLIDATING CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    Consolidated Container Capital, Inc. ("Capital") is a wholly owned finance
subsidiary of the Company and serves as a co-issuer of the senior subordinated
notes. Capital has only nominal assets, does not conduct any operations and was
formed solely to act as co-issuer of the notes.

    The accompanying summary consolidating condensed financial statements are
presented because the notes are guaranteed by the Company's wholly owned
domestic subsidiaries ("Guarantor Subsidiaries"). The Guarantor Subsidiaries
have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the notes on a joint and several
basis. Separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the
Guarantor Subsidiaries and Capital are not presented because management has
determined that such information is not material to investors. There are no
significant restrictions on the Company's ability to obtain funds from the
Guarantor Subsidiaries by dividend or loan.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

    In connection with its formation on July 2, 1999, Consolidated Container
Company LLC (the "Company") was created as a limited liability company to own,
directly or through its subsidiaries, all of the plastic packaging assets of
Reid Plastics, Inc. ("Reid Plastics"), Franklin Plastics, Inc ("Franklin") and
Plastic Containers, Inc ("PCI"). The transactions were accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting with Reid Plastics being considered the accounting
acquiror. Accordingly, financial information prior to July 2, 1999 pertains to
Reid Plastics only and is referred to as the Predecessor period and financial
information subsequent to July 2, 1999 is referred to as the Successor period
and includes consolidated operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Dollars in Thousands)

    THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 1, 1999

    NET SALES.  Net sales for the second quarter of 2000 were $193,145, an
increase of $146,125 or 310.8%, compared to $47,020 for the same period of 1999.
Approximately $143,000 of the increase is attributable to the inclusion of
Franklin and PCI in 2000. Higher resin prices in the second quarter of 2000
compared to the same period in 1999, which are passed through to customers in
the form of higher unit prices, account for an increase in sales of
approximately $4,500, while unit volume in the second quarter of 2000 was
slightly lower than 1999 for the predecessor company.

    GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profit for the second quarter of 2000 was $34,620, an
increase of $23,252 or 204.5%, compared to $11,368 for the same period of 1999.
The inclusion of Franklin and PCI in 2000 accounted for approximately $25,250 of
gross profit. The remaining decrease in gross profit is the result of lower unit
volume for the predecessor company and delays in passing through resin increases
as incurred, due to both contractual provisions and prevailing market
conditions.

    SG&A.  Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense for the second
quarter of 2000 was $8,942, an increase of $5,480 or 158.3%, compared to $3,462
for the same period of 1999. The increase was due to the inclusion of Franklin
and PCI in 2000, offset by a reduction in SG&A related to the closure of the
Reid Plastics corporate office in Diamond Bar, California during the fourth
quarter of 1999. As a result of the closing, certain administrative, accounting,
and information services functions were consolidated with other existing
operations.

    AMORTIZATION EXPENSE.  Amortization expense for the second quarter of 2000
was $3,495, an increase of $2,631 or 304.5%, compared to $864 for the same
period of 1999. This increase is due to the additional goodwill created as a
result of the acquisition.

    RESTRUCTURING CHARGE REVERSAL.  The Company recognized a restructuring
charge reversal of $2,238 during the second quarter of 2000. This amount
represents a reduction in the remaining lease obligation of a closed
manufacturing facility as a result of a sublease arrangement related to the
facility.

    OPERATING INCOME.  Operating Income for the second quarter of 2000 was
$24,421, an increase of $17,379 or 246.8%, compared to $7,042 for the same
period of 1999. This increase is the result of the factors discussed above.

    INTEREST EXPENSE, NET.  Interest expense for the second quarter of 2000 was
$14,295, an increase of $12,030 or 531.3%, compared to $2,265 for the same
period of 1999. This increase results primarily from the additional debt
incurred in connection with the 1999 merger.

                                       17
<PAGE>
    INCOME TAXES.  As a limited liability company, the Company is not subject to
corporate income taxes.Income tax expense for the second quarter of 1999 was
$2,336.

    EXTRAORDINARY LOSS.  In the second quarter of 1999 the Company incurred an
extraordinary loss of $1,171 in connection with the early extinguishment of
long-term debt. The loss was comprised of the write-off of $1,952 of unamortized
debt issuance costs, reduced by a tax benefit of $781.

    NET INCOME.  Net income for second quarter of 2000 was $10,234, compared to
$1,372 for the same period of 1999. The increase is the result of the factors
discussed above.

    SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 1, 1999

    NET SALES.  Net sales for the first six months of 2000 were $378,301, an
increase of $292,878 or 342.9%, compared to $85,423 for the same period of 1999.
Approximately $282,000 of the increase is attributable to the inclusion of
Franklin and PCI in 2000. The remaining increase was the result of higher resin
prices during the first six months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999,
which are passed through to customers in the form of higher unit prices, and
stronger unit volume in the water category in the first quarter of 2000 compared
to 1999. Higher resin prices accounted for approximately $8,500 of the increase
in sales.

    GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profit for the first six months of 2000 was $65,284, an
increase of $47,096 or 258.9%, compared to $18,188 for the same period of 1999.
The inclusion of Franklin and PCI in 2000 accounted for approximately $48,000 of
gross profit. The remaining decrease in gross profit is the result of slightly
higher unit volume offset by delays in passing through resin increases as
incurred, due to both contractual provisions and prevailing market conditions.

    SG&A.  SG&A expense for the first six months of 2000 was $18,536, an
increase of $11,600 or 167.2%, compared to $6,936 for the same period of 1999.
The increase was due to the inclusion of Franklin and PCI in 2000, offset by a
reduction in SG&A related to the closure of the Reid Plastics corporate office
during the fourth quarter of 1999.

    AMORTIZATION EXPENSE.  Amortization expense for the first six months of 2000
was $6,989, an increase of $5,226 or 296.4%, compared to $1,763 for the same
period of 1999. This increase is due to the additional goodwill created as a
result of the acquisition.

    RESTRUCTURING CHARGE REVERSAL.  The Company recognized a restructuring
charge reversal of $2,238 during the first six months of 2000. This amount
represents a reduction in the remaining lease obligation of a closed
manufacturing facility as a result of a sublease arrangement related to the
facility.

    OPERATING INCOME.  Operating Income for the first six months of 2000 was
$41,997, an increase of $32,508 or 342.6%, compared to $9,489 for the same
period of 1999. This increase is the result of the factors discussed above.

    INTEREST EXPENSE, NET.  Interest expense for the first six months of 2000
was $27,694, an increase of $23,210 or 517.6%, compared to $4,484 for the same
period of 1999. This increase results primarily from the additional debt
incurred in connection with the acquisition.

    INCOME TAXES.  As a limited liability company, the Company is not subject to
corporate income taxes. Income tax expense for the first six months of 1999 was
$2,890.

    NET INCOME.  Net income for first six months of 2000 was $14,501, compared
to $1,194 for the same period of 1999. The increase is the result of the factors
discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company's principal uses of cash are for capital expenditures, working
capital and debt service. Funds for these purposes are primarily generated from
operations and borrowing under the Company's Senior Credit Facilities. The
Senior Credit Facility was amended April 25, 2000 to add a Tranche 2 Revolving
Loan Commitment of $45.1 million. During the first six months of 2000 the
Company borrowed $10.0 million under its revolving credit facilities and had
outstanding borrowings of $27.5 million under the revolving credit facilities at
June 30, 2000. The Company had available to it unused borrowing capacity of
$107.6 million as of June 30, 2000. The revolving credit facilities contain
certain restrictive covenants. As of June 30, 2000 the Company was in compliance
with all covenants.

    The Company had capital expenditures of approximately $28.3 million in the
first six months of 2000, of which approximately $6.3 million was for
maintenance and replacement and the remainder was for business growth and cost
reduction initiatives. Substantially all of the expenditures were for packaging
equipment for the manufacture of plastic containers or related support
equipment.

    Cash flows from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2000 including
working capital changes was approximately $17.2 million which, together with
additional borrowings of $10.0 million under the credit facility and $5.4
million reduction in temporary investments, was utilized for $28.3 million of
capital expenditures and $4.8 million of debt service.

    The Company is required to make tax distributions to holders of member units
for reimbursement of tax obligations. The Company made distributions of $296 to
its sole member, Consolidated Container Holdings LLC during the first six months
of 2000.

    Management believes that future funds generated by operations and borrowings
available under its revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet working
capital and capital expenditure requirements.
