PART I
Item 1. Business
General
Silgan Corporation (the "Company" or "Silgan") is a major manufacturer
of a broad range of steel and aluminum containers for human and pet food. The
Company also manufactures custom designed plastic containers for health,
personal care, food, beverage, pharmaceutical and household chemical products in
North America. In 1994, the Company had net sales of $861.4 million.
Management believes that the Company is the sixth largest can producer
and one of the largest food can producers in North America, as well as one of
the largest producers in North America of custom designed plastic containers for
health and personal care products. The Company has grown rapidly since its
inception in 1987 primarily as a result of acquisitions, but also through
internally generated growth. In December 1993, Silgan's wholly owned subsidiary,
Silgan Containers Corporation ("Containers"), acquired the U.S. metal container
manufacturing business of Del Monte Corporation ("Del Monte"). See "Company
History" below.
The Company's strategy is to continue to increase its share of the North
American packaging market through acquisitions, as well as investment in
internally generated opportunities. The Company intends to focus particular
attention on those rigid metal and plastic container segments where operating
and market synergies are likely.
The Company is also engaged in the manufacture and sales of paper
containers primarily used by processors and packagers in the food industry.
The Company is a Delaware corporation formed in August 1987 as a holding
company to acquire interests in various packaging manufacturers. Prior to 1987,
the Company did not engage in any business. In June 1989, the Company became a
wholly owned subsidiary of Silgan Holdings Inc. ("Holdings"), a Delaware
corporation whose principal asset is all of the outstanding common stock of the
Company. See "Company History" below.
Metal Container Business
Management estimates that Containers is currently the sixth largest can
producer and one of the largest manufacturers of metal food containers in North
America. In 1994 Containers sold approximately 21% of all metal food containers
used in North America. Although the food can industry in North America is
relatively mature in terms of unit sales growth, Containers has realized
compound annual unit sales growth in excess of 12% since 1987. Types of
containers manufactured include those for vegetables, fruit, pet food, tomato
based products, evaporated milk and infant formula. Containers has agreements
with Nestle Food Company ("Nestle") pursuant to which Containers supplies
substantially all of its metal container requirements, and an agreement with Del
Monte pursuant to which Containers supplies substantially all of its metal
container requirements. In addition to Nestle and Del Monte, Containers has
multi-year supply arrangements with other customers. The Company estimates that
in excess of 80% of Containers' sales in 1995 will be pursuant to such supply
arrangements. See "Sales and Marketing" below.
Containers has focused on growth through acquisition followed by
investment in the acquired assets to achieve a low cost position in the food can
segment. Since its acquisition in 1987 of the metal container manufacturing
division of Nestle ("Nestle Can"), Containers has invested approximately $99
million in its acquired manufacturing facilities and has spent approximately $67
million for the acquisition of additional can
-1-
<PAGE>
manufacturing assets. As a result of these efforts and management's focus on
quality and service, Containers has more than doubled its overall share of the
food can segment in terms of unit sales, from a share of approximately 10% in
1987 to a share of approximately 21% in 1994.
Plastic Container Business
Management believes that the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Silgan
Plastics Corporation ("Plastics"), is one of the leading manufacturers of custom
designed, high density polyethylene ("HDPE") and polyethylene terephthalate
("PET") containers sold in North America for health and personal care products.
HDPE containers manufactured by Plastics include personal care containers for
shampoos, conditioners, hand creams, lotions and cosmetics, household chemical
containers for scouring cleaners, specialty cleaning agents and lawn and garden
chemicals and pharmaceutical containers for tablets, laxatives and eye cleaning
solutions. Plastics manufactures PET custom medicinal and health care product
containers (such as mouthwash and cough syrup bottles), custom food product
containers (such as salad dressing and instant coffee bottles), and custom
non-carbonated soft drink beverage product containers (such as juice bottles) as
well as water and liquor bottles. See "Products" below.
Plastics has grown primarily by strategic acquisition. From a sales base
of $89 million in 1987, Plastics' sales have grown at a compound rate of 13% to
$204 million in 1994. Plastics emphasizes value-added design, fabrication and
decoration of custom containers. Plastics is aggressively pursuing opportunities
in custom designed PET and HDPE containers for which the market has been growing
principally due to consumer preferences for plastic containers. The Company
believes it has equipment and technical expertise to take advantage of these
growth segments.
Products
Metal Container Business
The Company is engaged in the manufacture and sale of steel and aluminum
containers that are used primarily by processors and packagers for human and pet
food. Types of containers manufactured include those for vegetables, fruit, pet
food, tomato based products, evaporated milk and infant formula. The Company
does not produce cans for use in the beer or soft drink industries. Cans are
produced in a variety of sizes, ranging in diameter from 2-1/8 inches to 6-3/16
inches and in height from 1-7/16 inches to 7 inches.
Plastic Container Business
The Company is also engaged in the manufacture and sale of plastic
containers primarily used for health, personal care, food, beverage (other than
carbonated soft drinks), pharmaceutical and household chemical products. Plastic
containers are produced by converting thermoplastic materials into containers
ranging in size from 1/2 to 96 ounces. Emphasis is on value-added design,
fabrication and decoration of the containers. The Company designs and
manufactures a wide range of containers for health and personal care products
such as shampoos, hand creams, lotions and mouthwash. Because these products are
characterized by short product life and a demand for creative packaging, the
containers manufactured for these products generally have more sophisticated
designs and decorations. Food and beverage containers are designed and
manufactured (generally to unique specifications for a specific customer) to
contain products such as salad dressing, coffee, juice, water and liquor.
Household chemical containers are designed and manufactured to contain polishes,
specialty cleaning agents, lawn and garden chemicals and liquid household
products. Pharmaceutical containers are designed and manufactured (either in a
generic or in a custom-made form) to contain tablets, solutions and similar
products for the ethical and over-the-counter markets.

<PAGE>
Manufacturing and Production
As is the practice in the industry, most of the Company's can and
plastic container customers provide it with annual estimates of products and
quantities pursuant to which periodic commitments are given. Such estimates
enable the Company to effectively manage production and control working capital
requirements. At December 31, 1994, Containers had in excess of 80% of its
projected 1995 sales under multi-year contracts. Plastics has written purchase
orders or contracts for containers with the majority of its customers. In
general, these purchase orders and contracts are for containers made from
proprietary molds and are for a duration of 2 to 5 years. Both Containers and
Plastics schedule their production to meet their customers' requirements.
Because the production time for the Company's products is short, the backlog of
customer orders in relation to sales is not significant.
Metal Container Business
The Company uses three basic processes to produce cans. The traditional
three-piece method requires three pieces of flat metal to form a cylindrical
body with a welded side seam, a bottom and a top. The Company uses a welding
process for the side seam of three-piece cans to achieve a superior seal. High
integrity of the side seam is further assured by the use of sophisticated
electronic weld monitors and organic coatings that are thermally cured by
induction and convection processes. The other two methods of producing cans
start by forming a shallow cup that is then formed into the desired height using
either the draw and iron process or the draw and redraw process. Using the draw
and redraw process, the Company manufactures steel and aluminum two-piece cans,
the height of which does not exceed the diameter. For cans the height of which
is greater than the diameter, the Company manufactures steel two-piece cans by
using a drawing and ironing process. Quality and stackability of such cans are
comparable to that of the shallow two-piece cans described above. Can bodies and
ends are manufactured from thin, high-strength aluminum alloys and steels by
utilizing proprietary tool and die designs and selected can making equipment.
The Company's manufacturing operations include cutting, coating, lithographing,
fabricating, assembling and packaging finished cans.
Plastic Container Business
The Company utilizes two basic processes to produce plastic bottles. In
the blow extrusion molding process, pellets of plastic resin are heated and
extruded into a tube of plastic. A two-piece metal mold is then closed around
the plastic tube and high pressure air is blown into it causing a bottle to form
in the mold's shape. In the injection blow molding process, pellets of plastic
resin are heated and injected into a mold, forming a plastic preform. The
plastic preform is then blown into a bottle-shaped metal mold, creating a
plastic bottle.
The Company believes that its proprietary equipment for the production
of HDPE containers is particularly well-suited for the use of PCR resins because
of the relatively low capital costs required to convert its equipment from the
use of virgin resins.
The Company's decorating methods for its plastic products include (i)
silk screen decoration, which enables the application of images in multiple
colors to the bottle, (ii) post-molded decoration, which uses paper labels
applied to the bottles with glue, (iii) pressure-sensitive decoration, which
applies a plastic film label to a post-molded bottle by pressing against the
bottle and (iv) in-mold labeling, which applies a plastic film label to the
bottle during the blowing process. The Company has state-of-the-art decorating
equipment, including, management believes, one of the largest sophisticated
decorating facilities in the Midwest, which allows the Company to custom-design
new products with short lead times.

<PAGE>
Raw Materials
The Company does not believe that it is materially dependent upon any
single supplier for any of its raw materials and, based upon the existing
arrangements with suppliers discussed above, its current and anticipated
requirements and market conditions, the Company believes that it has made
adequate provisions for acquiring raw materials. Although increases in the
prices of raw materials have generally been passed along to the Company's
customers, the inability to do so in the future could have a significant impact
on the Company's operating margins.
Metal Container Business
The Company uses tin plated and chromium plated steel, aluminum, copper
wire, organic coatings, lining compound and inks in the manufacture and
decoration of its metal can products. The Company's steel and other material
requirements are supplied through purchase orders with suppliers with whom the
Company, through its predecessors, has long-term relationships. If its suppliers
fail to deliver under their arrangements, the Company would be forced to
purchase raw materials on the open market, and no assurances can be given that
it would be able to make such purchases at prices which would allow it to remain
competitive. The Company has a contract to obtain the majority of its
requirements for aluminum from a supplier at prices that are subject to
adjustment based on formulas and market conditions. Such contract expires in
1996. The Company believes that it would be able to satisfy its requirements for
aluminum from other suppliers in the event of the loss of its current supplier.
The Company believes that it will be able to purchase sufficient quantities of
steel and aluminum can sheet for the foreseeable future.
Plastic Container Business
The raw materials used by the Company for the manufacture of plastic
containers are primarily resins in pellet form such as HDPE-PCR and virgin HDPE
and PET and, to a lesser extent, low density polyethylene, extrudable polyester
terephthalate, polyethylene terephthalate glycol, polypropylene, polyvinyl
chloride and medium density polyethylene. The Company's resin requirements are
acquired through multi-year arrangements for specific quantities of resins with
several major suppliers of resins. The price the Company pays for resin raw
materials is not fixed and is subject to market pricing. Currently, demand for
PET exceeds supplies of PET. However, the Company has long-term arrangements for
PET with a number of producers and, as a result, believes that it has adequate
supply commitment for PET to satisfy its current business and obligations to
customers. The Company anticipates that there will be new capacity for PET
beginning in midto-late 1995 and into 1996. The Company believes that the
successful start-up of such announced new capacity will bring supply of and
demand for PET into better balance in 1996. However, delays in the availability
of such new capacity could have an adverse impact on the Company's plans for
growth in its plastic containers business in 1996. The Company believes that it
will be able to purchase sufficient quantities of other resins (including HDPE)
for the foreseeable future.
Sales and Marketing
The Company markets its products in most areas of North America
primarily by a direct sales force and through a large network of distributors.
Because of the high cost of transporting empty containers, the Company generally
sells to customers within a 300 mile radius of its manufacturing plants. See
also "Competition" below.
In 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company's metal container business accounted
for approximately 76%, 71% and 69%, respectively, of the Company's total sales,
and the Company's plastic container business accounted for approximately 24%,
29% and 31%, respectively, of the Company's total sales. In 1994, 1993
-4-
<PAGE>
and 1992, approximately 26%, 34% and 37%, respectively, of the Company's sales
were to Nestle and in 1994 approximately 21% of the Company's sales were to Del
Monte. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total
sales during such years.
Metal Container Business
Management believes that the Company is currently the sixth largest can
producer and one of the largest food can producers in North America. In 1994,
Containers sold approximately 21% of all metal food containers in North America.
Containers has entered into multi-year supply arrangements with many of its
customers, including Nestle and Del Monte. The Company estimates that in excess
of 80% of its metal container sales in 1995 will be pursuant to such
arrangements.
In 1987, the Company, through Containers, and Nestle entered into supply
agreements (the "Nestle Supply Agreements") pursuant to which Containers has
agreed to supply Nestle with, and Nestle has agreed to purchase from Containers,
substantially all of the can requirements of the former Carnation operations of
Nestle for a period of ten years, subject to certain conditions. In 1994, the
term of three of the Nestle Supply Agreements (representing approximately 70% of
the Company's 1994 unit sales to Nestle) was extended through 2001.
The Nestle Supply Agreements provide for certain prices and specify that
such prices will be increased or decreased based upon cost change formulas set
forth therein. The Nestle Supply Agreements contain provisions that require
Containers to maintain certain levels of product quality, service and delivery
in order to retain the Nestle business. In the event of a breach of a particular
Nestle Supply Agreement, Nestle may terminate such Nestle Supply Agreement but
the other Nestle Supply Agreements would remain in effect.
Under the three Nestle Supply Agreements which were recently extended
through 2001, Nestle has the right to receive competitive bids under narrowly
limited circumstances, and Containers has the right to match any such bids.
Under the other six Nestle Supply Agreements, if Nestle receives a competitive
bid for any product supplied thereunder, Containers has the right to match such
bid with respect to the type and volume of cans over the period of the
competitive bid. In either case, in the event that Containers chooses not to
match a competitive bid, Nestle may purchase cans from the competitive bidder at
the competitive bid price for the term of the bid. Since 1990, under the
original Nestle Supply Agreements Nestle has requested that Containers match
certain bids received from other potential suppliers. Containers agreed to match
such bids (which resulted in minor margin impact) and continues to supply
substantially all of the can requirements of the former Carnation operations of
Nestle. In the future, there can be no assurance that Containers will choose to
match any such bids or that, even if matched, such bids will be at a level
sufficient to allow Containers to maintain margins currently received. Until any
such bids are received by Nestle and submitted to the Company, the Company
cannot predict the effect, if any, of such bids upon its financial condition or
results of operations. Significant reductions of margins or the loss of
significant unit volume under the Nestle Supply Agreements could, however, have
a material adverse effect on the Company.
On December 21, 1993, Containers and Del Monte entered into a supply
agreement (the "DM Supply Agreement"). Under the DM Supply Agreement, Del Monte
has agreed to purchase from Containers, and Containers has agreed to sell to Del
Monte, 100% of Del Monte's annual requirements for metal containers to be used
for the packaging of food and beverages in the United States and not less than
65% of Del Monte's annual requirements of metal containers for the packaging of
food and beverages at Del Monte's Irapuato, Mexico facility, subject to certain
limited exceptions.
-5-
<PAGE>
The DM Supply Agreement provides for certain prices for all metal
containers supplied by Containers to Del Monte thereunder and specifies that
such prices will be increased or decreased based upon specified cost change
formulas.
Under the DM Supply Agreement, after five years, Del Monte may, under
certain circumstances, receive proposals with terms more favorable than those
under the DM Supply Agreement from independent commercial can manufacturers for
the supply of containers of a type and quality similar to the metal containers
that Containers furnishes to Del Monte, which proposals shall be for the
remainder of the term of the DM Supply Agreement and for 100% of the annual
volume of containers at one or more of Del Monte's canneries. Containers has the
right to retain the business subject to the terms and conditions of such
competitive proposal.
The sale of metal containers to vegetable pack customers is seasonal and
monthly revenues increase during the months of June through October. As is
common in the packaging industry, the Company must build inventory and then
carry accounts receivable for some seasonal vegetable pack customers beyond the
end of the harvest season. Consistent with industry practice, such customers may
return unused containers. Historically, such returns have been minimal.
Plastic Container Business
The Company is one of the leading manufacturers of custom designed HDPE
and PET containers sold in North America. The Company markets its plastic
containers in most areas of North America through a direct sales force and
through a large network of distributors. More than 70% of the Company's plastic
containers are sold for health and personal care products, such as hair care,
oral care, pharmaceutical and other health care applications. The Company's
customers in these product segments include Helene Curtis Inc., Procter & Gamble
Co., Avon Products, Inc., Jergens Inc., Warner-Lambert Company and Pfizer Inc.
The Company also manufacturers plastic containers for food and beverage
products, such as salad dressings, mustard, mayonnaise, coffee and premium
bottled water. Customers in these product segments include Procter & Gamble Co.,
Kraft General Foods Inc. and General Mills, Inc.
As part of its marketing strategy, the Company has arrangements to sell
some of its plastic products to distributors, which in turn sell such products
primarily to small-size regional customers. Plastic containers sold to
distributors are manufactured by using generic molds with decoration, color and
neck finishes added to meet the distributors' individual requirements. The
distributors' warehouses and their sales personnel enable the Company to market
and inventory a wide range of such products to a variety of customers.
Plastics has written purchase orders or contracts for containers with
the majority of its customers. In general, these purchase orders and contracts
are for containers made from proprietary molds and are for a duration of 2 to 5
years.
Competition
The packaging industry is highly competitive. The Company competes in
this industry with other packaging manufacturers as well as fillers, food
processors and packers who manufacture containers for their own use and for sale
to others. The Company attempts to compete effectively through the quality of
its products, pricing and its ability to meet customer requirements for
delivery, performance and technical assistance. The Company also pursues market
niches such as the manufacture of easy-open ends and special feature cans, which
may differentiate the Company's products from its competitors' products.
Because of the high cost of transporting empty containers, the Company
generally sells to customers within a 300 mile radius of its manufacturing
plants. Strategically located existing plants give the Company
-6-
<PAGE>
an advantage over competitors from other areas, and the Company would be
disadvantaged by the loss or relocation of a major customer. As of February 28,
1995, the Company operated 34 manufacturing facilities, geographically dispersed
throughout the United States and Canada, that serve the distribution needs of
its customers.
Metal Container Business
Management believes that the metal food containers segment is mature.
Some self-manufacturers have sold or closed can manufacturing operations and
entered into long-term supply agreements with the new owners or with commercial
can manufacturers. Of the commercial metal can manufacturers, American National
Can Company, Crown Cork and Seal Company, Inc. and Ball Corporation are the
Company's most significant competitors.
Although metal containers face continued competition from plastic, paper
and composite containers, management believes that metal containers are superior
to plastic and paper containers in applications where the contents are processed
at high temperatures, where the contents are packaged in large or institutional
quantities (14 to 64 oz.) or where long-term storage of the product is
desirable. Such applications include canned vegetables, fruits, meats and pet
foods. These sectors are the principal areas for which the Company manufactures
its products.
Plastic Container Business
Plastics competes with a number of large national producers of health,
personal care, food, beverage, pharmaceutical and household chemical plastic
container products, including Owens-Brockway Plastics Products, a division of
Owens-Illinois, Inc., Constar Plastics Inc., a subsidiary of Crown Cork and Seal
Company, Inc., Johnson Controls Inc., Continental Plastics Inc. and Plastipak
Packaging Inc. In order to compete effectively in the constantly changing market
for plastic bottles, the Company must remain current with, and to some extent
anticipate innovations in, resin composition and applications and changes in the
manufacturing of plastic bottles.
Employees
As of December 31, 1994, the Company employed approximately 670 salaried
and 3,330 hourly employees on a full time basis. Approximately 63% of the
Company's hourly plant employees are represented by one of the following unions:
(i) Sheet Metal Workers International Association, (ii) International
Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, (iii) The International
Brotherhood of Teamsters, (iv) The United Steel Workers of America, (v)
Industrial, Technical & Professional Employees Union, (vi) The Glass, Molders,
Pottery, Plastics and Allied Workers International Union, (vii) The United
Rubber, Cork and Plastic Workers of America and (viii) Oil, Chemical & Atomic
Workers International Union.
The Company's labor contracts expire at various times between 1995 and
1999. Contracts covering approximately 22% of the Company's hourly employees
presently expire during 1995. The Company expects no significant changes in its
relations with these unions. Management believes that its relationship with its
employees is good.
Regulation
The Company is subject to federal, state and local environmental laws
and regulations. In general, these laws and regulations limit the discharge of
pollutants into the air and water and establish standards for the treatment,
storage, and disposal of solid and hazardous waste. The Company believes that
all of its facilities
-7-
<PAGE>
are either in compliance in all material respects with all presently applicable
environmental laws and regulations or are operating in accordance with
appropriate variances, delayed compliance orders or similar arrangements.
In addition to costs associated with regulatory compliance, the Company
may be held liable for alleged environmental damage associated with the past
disposal of hazardous substances. Generators of hazardous substances disposed of
at sites at which environmental problems are alleged to exist, as well as the
owners of those sites and certain other classes of persons, are subject to
claims under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and
Liability Act of 1980 ("CERCLA") regardless of fault or the legality of the
original disposal. Liability under CERCLA and under many similar state statutes
is joint and several, and, therefore, any responsible party may be held liable
for the entire cleanup cost at a particular site. Other state statutes may
impose proportionate rather than joint and several liability. The federal
Environmental Protection Agency or a state agency may also issue orders
requiring responsible parties to undertake removal or remedial actions at
certain sites. Pursuant to the agreement relating to the acquisition in 1987 of
Nestle Can, the Company has assumed liability for the past waste disposal
practices of Nestle Can. The Company has received notice that it is one of many
potentially responsible parties (or similarly designated parties) for cleanup of
hazardous waste at a site to which it (or its predecessor Nestle Can) is alleged
to have shipped such waste and at which the Company's share of cleanup costs
could exceed $100,000. See "Legal Proceedings."
Pursuant to the agreement relating to the acquisition in 1987 from
Monsanto Company ("Monsanto") of substantially all of the business and related
fixed assets and inventory of Monsanto's plastic containers business ("Monsanto
Plastic Containers"), Monsanto has agreed to indemnify the Company for
substantially all of the costs attributable to the past waste disposal practices
of Monsanto Plastic Containers. In connection with the acquisition from Del
Monte of substantially all of the fixed assets and working capital of its
container manufacturing business in the United States ("DM Can"), Del Monte has
agreed to indemnify the Company for a period of three years for substantially
all of the costs attributable to any noncompliance by DM Can with any
environmental law prior to the closing, including all of the costs attributable
to the past waste disposal practices of DM Can.
The Company is subject to the Occupational Safety and Health Act and
other laws regulating noise exposure levels in the production areas of its
plants.
Management does not believe that any of the matters described above
individually or in the aggregate will have a material effect on the Company's
capital expenditures, earnings, financial position or competitive position.
Research and Technology
Metal Container Business
The Company's research, product development and product engineering
efforts relating to its metal containers are conducted at its research center at
Oconomowoc, Wisconsin and at other plant locations.
Plastic Container Business
The Company's research, product development and product engineering
efforts with respect to its plastic containers are currently performed by its
manufacturing and engineering personnel located at its Norcross, Georgia
facility. In addition to its own research and development staff, the Company
participates in arrangements with four non-U.S. plastic container manufacturers
that call for an exchange of technology among these manufacturers. Pursuant to
these arrangements, the Company licenses its blow molding technology to such
manufacturers.

Company History
The Company was organized in August 1987 as a holding company to acquire
interests in various packaging manufacturers. On August 31, 1987, the Company,
through Containers, purchased from Nestle the business and related assets and
working capital of Nestle Can for approximately $151 million in cash and the
assumption of substantially all of the liabilities of Nestle Can. Also on August
31, 1987, the Company, through Plastics, purchased from Monsanto substantially
all the business and related fixed assets and inventory of Monsanto Plastic
Containers for approximately $43 million in cash and the assumption of certain
liabilities of Monsanto Plastic Containers. To finance these acquisitions and to
pay related fees and expenses, the Company issued common stock, preferred stock
and senior subordinated notes and borrowed amounts under its credit agreement.
During 1988, Containers acquired from The Dial Corporation its metal
container manufacturing division known as the Fort Madison Can Company ("Fort
Madison"), and from Nestle its carton manufacturing division known as the
Seaboard Carton Division ("Seaboard").
During 1989, Plastics acquired Aim Packaging, Inc. ("Aim") and Fortune
Plastics, Inc. ("Fortune") in the United States, and Express Plastic Containers
Limited ("Express") in Canada, to improve its competitive position in the HDPE
container segment.
Holdings was organized in April 1989 as a holding company to acquire all
of the outstanding common stock of the Company. On June 30, 1989, Silgan
Acquisition, Inc. ("Acquisition"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings, merged
with and into the Company, and the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of
Holdings (the "1989 Mergers").
In 1989, the Company acquired the business and related assets of Amoco
Container Company ("Amoco Container"). In November 1991, Plastics sold its
nonstrategic PET carbonated beverage bottle business (the "PET Beverage Sale"),
exiting that commodity business.
In 1992, Silgan and Holdings refinanced a substantial portion of their
indebtedness (the "Refinancing") pursuant to a plan to improve their financial
flexibility. The Refinancing included the following: (i) the public offering in

transaction fees and expenses relating to the Refinancing. Additionally, in June
1992 Aim, Fortune and certain other subsidiaries of Plastics were merged into
Plastics.
On December 21, 1993, Containers acquired from Del Monte substantially
all of the fixed assets and certain working capital of Del Monte's container
manufacturing business in the United States for a purchase price of
approximately $73 million and the assumption of certain limited liabilities. To
finance the acquisition, (i) Silgan, Containers and Plastics (collectively, the
"Borrowers") entered into a credit agreement, dated as of December 21, 1993 (the
"Credit Agreement") with the lenders from time to time party thereto (the
"Banks"), Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association ("Bank of
America"), as Co-Agent, and Bankers Trust, as Agent, and (ii) Holdings issued
and sold to Mellon Bank, N.A., as trustee for First Plaza Group Trust, a group
trust established under the laws of the State of New York ("First Plaza"),
250,000 shares of its Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the
"Holdings Stock"), for a purchase price of $60.00 per share and an aggregate
purchase price of $15 million. Additionally, Silgan, Containers and Plastics
borrowed term and working capital loans under the Credit Agreement to refinance
and repay in full all amounts owing under the Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement.
Item 2. Properties
Silgan's and Holdings' principal executive offices are located at 4
Landmark Square, Stamford, Connecticut 06901. The administrative headquarters

The Company believes that its plants, warehouses and other facilities
are in good operating condition, adequately maintained, and suitable to meet its
present needs and future plans. The Company believes that it has sufficient
capacity to satisfy the demand for its products in the foreseeable future. To
the extent that the Company needs additional capacity, management believes that
the Company can convert certain facilities to continuous operation or make the
appropriate capital expenditures to increase capacity.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Complaints and Appraisal Petition Arising Out of the 1989 Mergers.
Contemporaneous with the merger of Silgan into a subsidiary of Holdings in June
1989, certain holders of 1,050,000 shares of Silgan Class B common stock filed
two actions in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the "Chancery
Court") alleging that Silgan and certain affiliates, officers and directors
breached fiduciary duties in implementing the 1989 Mergers. One of the actions
was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice of the right to reinstate the action
upon the conclusion of the appraisal proceeding described below. The second
action was dismissed following settlement.
In 1989, the same Silgan stockholders also sought appraisal of the value
of their shares of Class B common stock pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law. Following discovery, and settlement with the holders of
650,000 shares of Class B common stock, trial of the appraisal with respect to
the remaining 400,000 shares of Class B common stock was conducted during the
week of November 28, 1994. Post-trial briefing is scheduled to be completed on
April 17, 1995.
Management believes that the consideration offered in the 1989 Mergers
fully reflected the value of Silgan's Class B common stock and that the ultimate
resolution of the appraisal proceeding will not have a material effect on the
financial condition or results of operations of the Company or Holdings.
Katell/Desert Complaint. On November 6, 1991, Gerald L. Katell
("Katell") and Desert Equities, Inc. ("Desert"), who are limited partners of The
Morgan Stanley Leveraged Equity Fund, L.P. ("MSLEF"), filed a consolidated
complaint in the Chancery Court (the "Katell/Desert Complaint") against a number
of defendants, including Holdings and Silgan. (The plaintiffs previously had
filed similar complaints in the New York Supreme Court, but the complaints were
dismissed on the grounds that, in the interests of substantial justice, the
actions should be heard in the courts of Delaware.) The plaintiffs allege, among
other things, that the general partners of MSLEF breached duties owed to the
limited partners by selling MSLEF's investment in Silgan at a grossly inadequate
price. Holdings and Silgan are named as defendants in Court III of such amended
complaint, which charges them with aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary
duty by MSLEF and the general partners. The plaintiffs claim damages in the
amount of $4.67 million.
After full briefing and oral argument on a motion by defendants to
dismiss the amended complaint filed by plaintiffs, the court dismissed all
claims against Holdings and Silgan by memorandum opinion and order dated January
14, 1993. The court denied plaintiffs' motion to reargue the dismissal by order
dated March 29, 1993. Because the Katell/Desert Complaint continues against
certain other defendants, the plaintiffs' right to appeal the dismissal of the
claims against Silgan and Holdings has not yet expired.
Management believes that there is no factual basis for the allegations
and claims contained in the Katell/Desert Complaint. Management also believes
that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously.
In addition, management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters
and the appraisal proceedings will not have a material effect on the financial
condition or results of operations of the Company or Holdings.

Summer del Caribe. On October 17, 1989, the State of California, on
behalf of the California Department of Health Services, filed a suit in the
United States District Court for the Northern District of California against the
owners and operators of a recycling facility operated by Summer del Caribe,
Inc., Dale Summer and Lynn Rodich. The complaint also named 16 can manufacturing
companies, including Silgan, that had sent small amounts of solder dross to the
facility for recycling as "Responsible Parties" under the California Superfund
statute. The Company is one of 16 defendant can companies participating in a
steering committee. The steering committee has actively undertaken a feasibility
study which was approved by the California Department of Toxic Substances in
June 1994. The Company has agreed with the other can company defendants that
Silgan's apportioned share of cleanup costs would be 6.72% of the total cost of
cleanup. On March 14, 1995, the court approved the Consent Order settling the
case and reaffirming Silgan's 6.72% apportioned share of the cleanup costs.
Although the total cost of cleanup has not yet been determined, the Company
understands that the State of California's current worst case estimate of total
cleanup costs for all parties is $5.5 million. The steering committee believes
that the cost to remediate will be less than one-half the government's estimate.
Accordingly, the Company believes its maximum exposure is not greater than 6.72%
of $3 million, or approximately $202,000.
Other. Other than the actions mentioned above, there are no other
pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to
the business of the Company, to which the Company is a party or to which any of
its properties are subject.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
None.

<PAGE>
PART II
Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Stock and Related Stockholder Matters.
The Company's common stock is not publicly traded on any market or
exchange. All of the outstanding common stock of the Company is held by
Holdings. Other than the payment of a $15.7 million dividend to Holdings in
connection with the Refinancing in 1992 and the payment of $6.9 million to
Holdings in 1994 to enable Holdings to make payments to former shareholders of
Silgan in connection with the 1989 Mergers, the Company has not paid any
dividends on its common stock. Unless certain financial tests are met, the
Company is prohibited under the Credit Agreement from paying any dividends on
its Common Stock. Also, the Secured Notes and the indenture relating to the
11-3/4% Notes limit, subject to certain exceptions, the Company's ability to pay
dividends on its common stock. The Company does not intend to pay any dividends
on its common stock in the foreseeable future, except for dividends to Holdings
that the Company may pay to fund Holdings' consolidated federal and state tax
obligations and, under limited circumstances as permitted by the Credit
Agreement, the Secured Notes and the indenture in respect of the 11-3/4% Notes,
certain other obligations of Holdings and, beginning no earlier than December
1996, in order to enable Holdings to pay interest on the Discount Debentures.
Item 6. Selected Financial Data.
Set forth below are selected historical consolidated financial data of
the Company at December 31, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991 and 1990 and for the periods

Notes to Selected Financial Data
<Fa> On December 21, 1993, the Company acquired from Del Monte substantially
all of the fixed assets and certain working capital of its container
manufacturing business. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase
transaction and the results of operations have been included with the
Company's historical results from the acquisition date. See Note 3 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report
on Form 10-K.
<Fb> On November 15, 1991, the Company completed the PET Beverage Sale. For
1991, sales from the PET carbonated beverage business were $33.4 million.
<Fc> Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes,"
which requires the Company to provide for taxes as if it were a separate
taxpayer. The Company has not elected to restate its financial statements
for years prior to 1993, and has calculated its tax provision on a
separate company basis with the exception of certain matters covered under
a tax allocation agreement with Holdings under which the Company obtained
a federal tax benefit for Holdings' tax losses.
<Fd> During 1993, the Company adopted SFAS No. 106, "Employers Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions" and SFAS No. 112, "Employers
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." The Company has elected not to
restate prior year's financial statements for these pronouncements.
<Fe> "EBDITA" means consolidated net income before extraordinary charges,
cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles and preferred stock
dividends plus, to the extent reflected in the income statement for the
period for which consolidated net income is to be determined, without
duplication, (i) consolidated interest expense, (ii) income tax expense,
(iii) depreciation expense, (iv) amortization expense, (v) expenses
relating to postretirement health care costs which amounted to $0.715
million in 1994 and $0.478 million in 1993, (vi) charges relating to the
vesting of benefits under SARs of $1.5 million and $1.973 million in 1994
and 1990, respectively, and (vii) the reduction in carrying value of
assets of $16.7 million in 1994. EBDITA is being presented by the Company
as a supplement to the discussion of the Company's operating income and
cash flow from operations analysis because the Company believes that
certain persons may find it to be useful in measuring the Company's
performance and ability to service its debt. EBDITA is not a substitute
for GAAP operating and cash flow data.
<Ff> Depreciation and amortization excludes amortization of debt financing
costs.
<Fg> The number of employees at December 31, 1993 excludes 650 employees who
joined the Company on December 21, 1993 as a result of the acquisition by
Containers of DM Can.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
The Company has focused on growth through acquisitions followed by
investment in the acquired assets to gain production efficiencies and provide
internal growth. Since the Company's inception in 1987, the metal food can
business, which had sales of $647 million in 1994, has realized compound growth
of 12% through both internal growth and acquisitions of food can businesses,
including the acquisition of Del Monte's captive can manufacturing operations in
December 1993. The Company believes that its investments have enabled it to
achieve a low cost position in the food can segment. To contain costs, the
Company closed two smaller, higher cost metal container facilities in 1992 and
another smaller facility in early 1995. The Company believes that the addition
of the Del Monte facilities has created further cost reduction opportunities
through plant rationalization as well as line reconfiguration and production
scheduling. The Company expects that these cost reduction opportunities, which
began to be implemented in late 1994, will be fully realized by 1997. To enhance
its competitive position, the Company has maintained a stable customer base by
entering into multi-year supply arrangements with a majority of its metal food
can customers. Such arrangements generally provide for pricing changes in
accordance with cost change formulas, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to
the volatility of raw material prices but also limiting the Company's ability to
increase prices. The arrangement to supply substantially all of Del Monte's
metal container requirements in the United States under the DM Supply Agreement
extends to 2002 and the arrangement to supply a majority of Nestle's domestic
metal container requirements under the Nestle Supply Agreements extends through
2001. The Company estimates that in excess of 80% of its 1995 metal container
sales will be subject to long term contracts.
The plastic container business has grown from a sales base of $89 million
in 1987 to $204 million in 1994. In 1989, the Company made four acquisitions of
plastic container manufacturers to improve its competitive position in the
plastic container segment. As a result of these acquisitions, the Company
implemented an aggressive consolidation and rationalization program during the
period from 1991 through 1993, closing three manufacturing facilities and
consolidating the technical and administrative functions of its plastic
container business. The full benefit of the consolidation and rationalization
program was not realized until 1994. The Company is aggressively pursuing
opportunities in custom designed PET and HDPE containers for which the market
has been growing principally due to consumer preferences for plastic containers.
The Company believes it has equipment and technical expertise to take advantage
of these growth segments.
Summary results for the Company's two business segments, metal and plastic
containers, for the calendar years 1994, 1993 and 1992 are provided below. See
Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements which are included
elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Results of Operations
Year Ended December 31, 1994 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 1993.
Consolidated net sales increased $215.9 million, or 33.4%, to $861.4
million for the year ended December 31, 1994, as compared to $645.5 million for
the same period in 1993. Approximately 81% of this increase related to sales to
Del Monte pursuant to the DM Supply Agreement entered into by the Company on
December 21, 1993 to supply substantially all of Del Monte's metal container
requirements for a period of ten years. The remainder of this increase resulted
principally from greater unit sales in both the metal container and plastic
container businesses.
Net sales for the metal container business (including paper containers)
were $657.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1994, an increase of $197.9
million (43.1%) over net sales for the metal container business of $459.2
million for the same period in 1993. Sales of metal containers increased $201.6
million primarily as a result of the DM Supply Agreement, which represented
$174.7 million of this increase, an increase of $20.1 million (9.1%) in sales to
all other customers and an increase of $6.8 million (3.2%) in sales to Nestle.
Sales of metal containers increased principally from higher unit volume and
reflected continued growth in sales of pet food containers, as well as greater
sales to vegetable pack customers due to a larger than normal pack in 1994.
Sales of paper containers included in the metal container segment declined $3.7
million to $9.6 million during 1994.
Net sales for the plastic container business of $204.3 million during the
year ended December 31, 1994 increased $18.0 million, or 9.7%, over net sales of
plastic containers of $186.3 million for the same period in 1993. The increase
in net sales of plastic containers was attributable to increased unit sales to
new and existing customers, particularly PET customers, and to a lesser extent,
higher average sales prices due to the pass through of increased resin costs.
Cost of goods sold was 86.8% of consolidated net sales ($747.5 million)
for the year ended December 31, 1994, a decrease of 1.7 percentage points as
compared to 88.5% of consolidated net sales ($571.2 million) for the same period
in 1993. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of consolidated net
sales principally resulted from synergistic benefits resulting from the
acquisition of DM Can, lower per unit manufacturing costs realized on higher
sales and production volumes and improved manufacturing efficiencies in the
plastic container business resulting from larger cost reduction and productivity
investments in 1993.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
consolidated net sales declined 0.5 percentage points to 4.4% of consolidated
net sales ($38.0 million) for the year ended December 31, 1994, as compared to
4.9% ($31.8 million) for the same period in 1993. The decrease as a percentage
of consolidated net sales resulted principally from a modest increase in
selling, general and administrative functions relative to the increased sales
associated with the acquisition of DM Can, offset in part by an increase of $1.3
million in benefits accrued under stock appreciation rights agreements.
Income from operations as a percentage of consolidated net sales increased
0.3 percentage points to 6.9% ($59.2 million) for the year ended December 31,
1994, compared with 6.6% ($42.5 million) for the same period in 1993. During
1994 the Company incurred a charge of $16.7 million to write-down certain
properties held for sale to their net realizable value and to reduce the
carrying value of certain technologically obsolete and inoperable equipment.
Without giving effect to this nonrecurring charge, income from operations in
1994
-18-
<PAGE>
would have been 8.8% ($75.9 million), an increase of 2.2 percentage points as
compared to 1993, and was principally attributable to the aforementioned
improvement in gross margin.
Income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the metal
container business (without giving effect to the $7.2 million charge to
write-down the carrying value of certain assets) increased 1.0% to 10.2% ($67.0
million) during 1994 as compared to 1993, principally due to operating synergies
realized from the acquisition of DM Can and lower per unit manufacturing costs
incurred as a result of higher production volumes in 1994. Income from
operations as a percentage of net sales attributable to the plastic container
business (without giving effect to the $9.5 million charge to write-down the
carrying value of certain assets) in 1994 was 4.6% ($9.4 million), as compared
to 0.3% ($0.6 million) in 1993. The improved operating performance of the
plastic container business resulted from production efficiencies realized as a
result of rationalizations and capital investment made in prior periods, and
lower unit manufacturing costs.
Interest expense increased by approximately $8.2 million to $36.1 million
for the year ended December 31, 1994. This increase resulted from the incurrance
of additional bank borrowings to finance the acquisition of DM Can and higher
average bank borrowing rates.
The provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 1994 and
1993 provide for taxes as if the Company were a separate taxpayer in accordance
with SFAS No. 109. As a result of a tax allocation agreement with Holdings,
Silgan obtains a tax benefit for Holdings' tax losses. This benefit is reflected
as a contribution to additional paid-in capital instead of a reduction in
federal income tax expense.
As a result of the items discussed above, net income for the year ended
December 31, 1994 was $12.1 million, $3.9 million greater than income before
extraordinary charges and cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles
for the year ended December 31, 1993 of $8.2 million.
In conjunction with the acquisition of DM Can in 1993, the Company
incurred an extraordinary charge of $0.8 million for the early extinguishment of
debt. Also, during 1993 the Company adopted SFAS No. 106, SFAS No. 109 and SFAS
No. 112. The cumulative effect of these accounting changes, for years prior to
1993, was to decrease net income by $10.0 million. As a result of these charges
the net loss for 1993 was $2.5 million.
Year Ended December 31, 1993 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 1992.
Consolidated net sales increased $15.5 million, or 2.5%, to $645.5 million
for the year ended December 31, 1993, as compared to $630.0 million for the same
period in 1992. This increase resulted from greater unit sales by the metal
container business offset by a decline in sales volume of the plastic container
business.
Net sales for the metal container business (including paper containers)
were $459.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1993, an increase of $21.8
million (5.0%) over net sales for the metal container business of $437.4 million
for the same period in 1992. Sales of metal containers increased 4.7% in 1993,
primarily as a result of higher unit sales to non-vegetable pack customers and
to a lesser extent the purchase of an additional manufacturing facility in May
1993, offset in part, by a decline in sales to Nestle due to reduced demand and
lower unit sales to vegetable pack customers due to the extremely wet weather in
the summer of 1993. Sales of paper containers included in the metal container
segment increased $1.7 million to $13.3 million during 1993.
Net sales for the plastic container business of $186.3 million during the
year ended December 31, 1993 were $6.3 million lower than net sales of plastic
containers of $192.6 million for the same period in 1992. The
-19-
<PAGE>
decrease in net sales of plastic containers was primarily attributable to lower
unit sales to existing customers due to soft market conditions.
Cost of goods sold was 88.5% of consolidated net sales ($571.2 million)
for the year ended December 31, 1993, as compared to 88.1% of consolidated net
sales ($555.0 million) for the same period in 1992. The increase in cost of
goods sold as a percentage of consolidated net sales principally resulted from
higher per unit manufacturing costs incurred as a result of higher depreciation
expense, lost margin on outsourced cans due to capacity constraints in early
1993, offset in part by improved manufacturing efficiency.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales
declined 0.2 percentage points to 4.9% of consolidated net sales ($31.8 million)
for the year ended December 31, 1993, as compared to 5.1% ($32.3 million) for
the same period in 1992. The decrease in selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of consolidated net sales was principally attributable
to the maintenance of a constant level of expenditures on a greater sales base.
Income from operations as a percentage of consolidated net sales was 6.6%
($42.5 million) for the year ended December 31, 1993, as compared to 6.8%
($42.8) for the same period in 1992. The decrease was principally attributable
to the aforementioned decline in gross margin.
Income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the metal
container business was 9.2% ($42.3 million) during 1993, as compared to 9.3%
($40.7 million) in 1992. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales
attributable to the plastic container business was 0.3% ($0.6 million) during
1993, as compared to 1.2% ($2.3 million) in 1992. The decline in operating
performance of the plastic container business resulted from production
inefficiencies incurred as a result of plant consolidations and higher per unit
manufacturing costs realized from reduced unit volume.
Interest expense increased by approximately $1.0 million to $27.9 million
for the year ended December 31, 1993. The increase was due to additional
indebtedness incurred by the Company as a result of the refinancing in June 1992
of the Company's debt and preferred stock and Holdings' debt, offset in part, by
lower average borrowing rates.
The provision for income taxes for 1993 of $6.3 million reflects the
adoption of SFAS No. 109 which requires the Company to provide for taxes as if
it were a separate taxpayer. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 109, the Company
determined its income tax provision on a separate company basis with the
exception of certain matters covered under a tax allocation agreement with
Holdings under which Silgan obtained a federal income tax benefit for Holdings'
tax losses. For purposes of SFAS No. 109, the benefit of the tax allocation
agreement is reflected as a contribution to additional paid-in capital instead
of a reduction in federal income tax expense. For 1992, the provision for income
taxes of $2.2 million was comprised of state and foreign components and
recognized the benefit of certain deductions for federal income tax that were
available to Holdings.
Income before the extraordinary charge and cumulative effect of changes in
accounting principles for the year ended December 31, 1993 was $8.2 million, as
compared to $13.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1992. The decline in
income before the extraordinary charge and cumulative effects of changes in
accounting principles was principally the result of the change in the financial
reporting of income tax expense.
As a result of the refinancing of the Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement in conjunction with the acquisition of DM Can and the refinancing in
June 1992 of the Company's debt and preferred stock and Holdings' debt, the
Company incurred extraordinary charges of $0.8 million and $9.1 million for the
early extinguishment of debt in 1993 and 1992, respectively. During 1993 the
Company adopted SFAS No. 106,
-20-
<PAGE>
SFAS No. 109 and SFAS No. 112. The cumulative effect of these accounting changes
was to decrease net income by $3.2 million, $6.0 million and $0.8 million,
respectively.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Silgan's liquidity requirements arise primarily from its obligations under
the indebtedness incurred in connection with its acquisitions and the
refinancing of such indebtedness, capital investment in new and existing
equipment and the funding of Silgan's seasonal working capital needs.
Historically, Silgan has met these liquidity requirements through cash flow
generated from operating activities and working capital borrowings. As described
below, beginning in December 1996 Silgan's liquidity requirements may also be
affected by the interest associated with Holdings' indebtedness.
During 1994, cash generated from operations of $47.3 million along with
working capital borrowings of $10.4 million were used to fund capital
expenditures of $27.9 million (net of proceeds of $1.3 million), make mandatory
debt repayments of $20.5 million, pay $6.9 million to former shareholders in
partial settlement of outstanding litigation and increase cash balances by $2.4
million. In late 1994, the Company entered into a program to accelerate the
purchase of certain raw materials prior to anticipated 1995 price increases. As
a result, at December 31, 1994 inventories were approximately $14 million higher
than the prior year. There was not a corresponding increase in trade payables,
however, because the advance purchase of raw materials was paid for prior to
year-end through additional working capital borrowings. The trade receivable
balance increased at December 31, 1994 as compared to the prior year-end
principally as a result of the DM Supply Agreement, which became effective on
December 21, 1993.
On December 21, 1993 Silgan, Containers and Plastics entered into the
Credit Agreement to finance the acquisition of DM Can and to refinance and repay
in full all amounts owing under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. In
conjunction therewith the Banks loaned the Company $60.0 million of A Term
Loans, $80.0 million of B Term Loans and $29.8 million of working capital loans.
In addition, Holdings issued and sold 250,000 shares of its Class B Common Stock
for $15.0 million and, in turn, contributed such amount to Silgan. With these
proceeds, the Company (i) repaid $41.5 million of term loans and $60.8 million
of working capital loans under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement; (ii)
acquired from Del Monte substantially all the fixed assets and certain working
capital of Del Monte's container manufacturing business for approximately $73
million; and (iii) paid fees and expenses of $8.9 million.
For 1993, the Company used cash generated from operations of $48.3 million
and available cash balances of $2.5 million to fund capital expenditures of
$42.5 million, repay working capital loans of $7.2 million (in addition to
working capital loans which were repaid with proceeds from the Credit
Agreement), and pay $1.1 million of term loans. During the year, the Company
increased its annual amount of capital spending in order to reduce costs and to
add incremental production capacity. The increase in inventory at December 31,
1993 as compared to the prior year principally resulted from the inventory
acquired as part of the acquisition of DM Can.
To improve their financial flexibility, Silgan and Holdings completed the
Refinancing in 1992. The Refinancing (i) lowered Holdings' consolidated average
cost of indebtedness by retiring the 14% Notes and the Holdings Reset Debentures
with new indebtedness bearing lower interest rates, (ii) improved Silgan's
liquidity and ability to further repay its indebtedness by eliminating Silgan's
obligation to pay cash dividends on the Preferred Stock through the Preferred
Stock Redemption and by deferring for an additional two years (until December
1996) and reducing the cash interest requirements on Holdings' indebtedness,
(iii) provided Holdings with additional financial flexibility by eliminating
restrictions in the indenture relating to the 14% Notes on Silgan's ability to
pay dividends to Holdings in order to fund interest payments on Holdings'
indebtedness through the 14% Notes Redemption and (iv) extended the average
length of maturity of Silgan's indebtedness
-21-
<PAGE>
by issuing the 11-3/4% Notes and the Secured Notes to refinance $30 million of
bank term loans and the 14% Notes.
In connection with the Refinancing, Silgan received $174.7 million in
proceeds from the issuance of the Secured Notes and 11-3/4% Notes, net of debt
issuance costs of $10.3 million. Silgan repaid a $25.2 million advance from
Holdings and made a $15.7 million dividend payment to Holdings, for an aggregate
payment of $40.9 million which was used by Holdings, together with the proceeds
received from the sale of the Discount Debentures, to redeem the Holdings Reset
Debentures. In addition, Silgan repaid $30 million of term loans under the
Credit Agreement. On August 16, 1992, the Company paid $31.5 million to redeem
the Preferred Stock. On August 28, 1992, the Company paid $89.3 million to
redeem the 14% Notes. Approximately $17 million of working capital loans were
borrowed to complete such redemptions.
In addition to the borrowing of working capital loans used to effect the
Refinancing, Silgan borrowed working capital loans of $2.2 million during the
year ended December 31, 1992 which, along with cash provided by operations
during 1992 of $34.4 million, were used principally to fund capital expenditures
of $23 million, to make bank term loan repayments of $10.2 million (in addition
to the term loan repayment made in connection with the Refinancing), to pay cash
dividends of $1.1 million on the Preferred Stock and to increase outstanding
cash balances by $2.3 million.
Since a portion of the proceeds realized from the Credit Agreement on
December 21, 1993 were used to repay working capital loans under the Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement, the Company was able to reduce the amount of its
commitment for working capital loans. Under the Credit Agreement, the commitment
for working capital loans was reduced by $41 million to $70 million. As of
December 31, 1994, the outstanding principal amount of working capital loans was
$12.6 million and, subject to a borrowing base limitation and taking into
account outstanding letters of credit, the unused portion of working capital
commitments at such date was $51.9 million.
Because the Company sells metal containers used in vegetable and fruit
processing, its sales are seasonal. As a result, a significant portion of the
Company's revenues are generated in the first nine months of the year. As is
common in the packaging industry, the Company must access working capital to
build inventory and then carry accounts receivable for some customers beyond the
end of the summer and fall packing season. Seasonal accounts are generally
settled by year end. Due to the Company's seasonal requirements, the Company
expects to incur short term indebtedness to finance its working capital
requirements, and it is estimated that approximately $40 million of the working
capital revolver, including letters of credit, will be utilized at its peak in
July 1995.
In addition to its operating cash needs, the Company's cash requirements
over the next several years are anticipated to consist primarily of (i) annual
capital expenditures of $35 million to $40 million (approximately $15 million of
which is nondiscretionary in each year), (ii) principal amortization payments of
A Term Loans under the Credit Agreement of approximately $20 million in each of
1995 and 1996, (iii) expenditures of approximately $7 million associated with
the rationalization of facilities related to the acquisition of DM Can, (iv) the
scheduled maturity on September 15, 1996 of the working capital loans and $80
million of B Term Loans under the Credit Agreement, (v) payments by Silgan to
Holdings to fund Holdings' semi-annual cash interest requirements of $18.2
million on the Discount Debentures commencing in December 1996, (vi) the
scheduled maturity of the $50 million principal amount of the Secured Notes in
1997, (vii) the Company's interest requirements (including interest on working
capital loans, the principal amount of which will vary depending upon seasonal
requirements, the Secured Notes and bank term loans, all of which bear
fluctuating rates of interest, and the 11-3/4% Notes) and (viii) payments of
approximately $14 million for federal and state tax liabilities beginning in
1995 (assuming the redemption of the Discount Debentures at maturity) and
increasing annually thereafter by approximately $2 million.
-22-
<PAGE>
The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings, a holding company
with no significant assets or operations other than its investment in and
advances to Silgan. Holdings is highly leveraged as a result of the indebtedness
that it incurred in connection with the 1989 Mergers. See "Business-Company
History." Holdings' principal liabilities are the Discount Debentures and its
guaranty of the Credit Agreement. Because Holdings' indebtedness does not
require payment of interest until December 1996 and because the Company has not
in the past provided funds to Holdings to pay interest on Holdings'
indebtedness, the Company's liquidity has not been, and until December 1996 is
not expected to be, affected by Holdings' indebtedness.
Interest on the Discount Debentures is payable at a rate of 13-1/4% per
annum from and after June 15, 1996, and commencing on December 15, 1996
semi-annual interest payments of $18.2 million will be required to be made
thereon. Since Holdings' only asset is its investment in Silgan, its ability to
pay interest on the Discount Debentures on and after December 15, 1996 (the date
on which interest is first payable on the Discount Debentures) may depend upon
its receipt of funds paid by dividend or otherwise loaned, advanced or
transferred by Silgan to Holdings. While Silgan has no legal obligation to make
such funds available, it is expected that Silgan will do so if it is permitted
under the agreements to which it shall then be a party and if it then has
sufficient funds available for such purpose. If sufficient funds to pay such
interest are not generated by the operations of Silgan's subsidiaries, Silgan or
Holdings may seek to borrow or otherwise finance the amount of such payments or
refinance the Discount Debentures. Neither the Indenture for the 11-3/4% Notes
nor the Secured Notes limits the ability of Silgan to pay cash dividends to
Holdings in order to enable Holdings to pay interest on the Discount Debentures.
The Credit Agreement presently prohibits Silgan from paying dividends or
otherwise transferring funds to Holdings in order to service Holdings'
indebtedness; however, the Credit Agreement matures on September 15, 1996, prior
to the date on which interest or principal is payable on the Discount
Debentures. Silgan expects to enter into a new credit facility to replace the
Credit Agreement on or before September 15, 1996 on terms which would not limit
the ability of Silgan to transfer funds to Holdings in order to enable Holdings
to pay interest on the Discount Debentures. However, there can be no assurance
that Silgan will be able to enter into a new credit facility on such terms. In
such event, Silgan and Holdings would consider pursuing alternative
arrangements, including possible equity and/or debt financings, to enable
Holdings to meet its obligations. There can be no assurance that any such
alternative, if pursued, would be accomplished or would enable Holdings to make
timely payments of its obligations under the Discount Debentures. The funding
requirements of Holdings to service its indebtedness (beginning in December
1996) will be met by Silgan through cash generated by operations or borrowings
or by Holdings through refinancings of its existing indebtedness or additional
debt or equity financings.
In addition to any financing effected as described above, Silgan and/or
Holdings may consider refinancing all or any part of their respective
indebtedness through other debt financings and/or equity financings, including a
public offering of equity. Any such financings would depend upon the market
conditions existing at the time and would have to be effected in compliance with
Silgan's and/or Holdings', as the case may be, agreements in respect of their
respective indebtedness.
The Discount Debentures represent "applicable high yield discount
obligations" ("AHYDOs") within the meaning of Section 163(i) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Accordingly, the tax deduction
which would otherwise be available to Holdings in respect of the accretion of
interest on the Discount Debentures during their noncash interest period ending
June 15, 1996 ($109.6 million) has been and will continue to be deferred, which,
in turn, will increase the taxable income of Holdings and reduce the after-tax
cash flows of Holdings. However, as a result of Holdings' utilization of its net
operating loss carryforward, which, as of December 31, 1994, amounts to
approximately $75 million for regular federal income tax purposes, the effect of
such deferral on the regular federal income taxes of Holdings has been and will
continue to be mitigated until such net operating loss carryforward is fully
utilized.
-23-
<PAGE>
In 1993, Holdings became subject to alternative minimum tax ("AMT") and,
due to the utilization of its AMT net operating loss carryforwards, incurred an
AMT liability at a rate of 2%. In 1994, Holdings fully utilized its AMT loss
carryforward. Accordingly, in 1995 and thereafter, Holdings will incur an AMT
liability at a rate of 20% (or the applicable rate then in effect). The AMT paid
is allowed (subject to certain limitations) as an indefinite credit carryover
against Holdings' regular tax liability in the future when and if Holdings'
regular tax liability exceeds the AMT liability.
The deferred accreted interest will not be deductible until the
redemption, retirement or other repayment of the Discount Debentures (other than
with stock or debt of Holdings or a related party). Until the deferred accreted
interest is deductible, except to the extent the net operating loss carryforward
is available, Holdings will realize taxable income sooner and in a greater
amount than if the deferred accreted interest on the Discount Debentures were
deductible as it accretes. Depending upon its tax position and financial
condition and the benefit which may be available through the deduction of the
deferred accreted interest, Holdings could decide in the future to refinance the
Discount Debentures or a portion thereof prior to their stated maturity date. In
such event, the full amount of the deferred accreted interest (applicable to the
Discount Debentures retired) should be deductible under the carryback and
carryforward rules under the Code unless the holders of the Discount Debentures
receive stock or debt of Holdings or a related party in exchange for the
Discount Debentures. No assurance can be given that Holdings will be able to
refinance the Discount Debentures at such time; however, management believes
that application of the AHYDO rules will not have a material adverse effect on
Holdings' financial condition or ability to repay the Discount Debentures. In
addition, the IRS has broad authority to issue regulations under the AHYDO rules
with retroactive effect to prevent the avoidance of the purposes of those rules
through agreements to borrow amounts due under a debt instrument or other
arrangements, and thus these regulations, when issued, may affect the timing or
availability of the tax deductions for original issue discount on the Discount
Debentures.
Management believes that cash generated by operations and funds from
working capital borrowings under the Credit Agreement will be sufficient to meet
the Company's expected operating needs, planned capital expenditures and debt
service requirements until the maturity of the working capital facility under
the Credit Agreement on September 15, 1996. Management also believes that it
will be able to replace the working capital facility under the Credit Agreement
with another facility on or prior to September 15, 1996 on terms which will be
acceptable to the Company. However, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to replace its working capital facility. In such event, the Company
could be required to consider alternative equity or debt financings in order to
meet its cash needs. The ability of the Company to effect any such financing and
the extent to which the Company may seek or be required to obtain additional
financing will depend upon a variety of factors, including the future
performance of the Company and its subsidiaries, which will be subject to
prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors
(including the state of the economy and the financial markets, demand for the
products of the Company and its subsidiaries, costs of raw materials,
legislative and regulatory changes and other factors beyond the control of the
Company and its subsidiaries) affecting the business and operations of the
Company and its subsidiaries as well as prevailing interest rates, actual
amounts expended for capital expenditures and other corporate purposes and the
timing and amount of debt prepayments or redemptions.
The Credit Agreement, the Secured Notes and the indentures relating to the
11-3/4% Notes and the Discount Debentures each contain restrictive covenants
that, among other things, limit the Company's ability to incur debt, sell assets
and engage in certain transactions. Management does not expect these limitations
to have a material effect on the Company's business or results of operations.
The Company is in compliance with all financial and operating covenants
contained in such financing agreements and believes that it will continue to be
in compliance during 1995 with all such covenants.
-24-
<PAGE>
Effect of Interest Rate Fluctuations and Inflation
Because the Company has indebtedness which bears interest at floating
rates, the Company's financial results will be sensitive to changes in
prevailing interest rates. To mitigate the effect of significant changes in
interest rates, the Company may enter into interest rate hedge agreements (with
counterparties that, in the Company's judgment, have sufficient
creditworthiness) with respect to a portion of its floating rate indebtedness.
At December 31, 1994, the Company was not a party to any interest rate hedge
agreement.
Historically, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company,
other than to increase its cost of borrowing. In general, the Company has been
able to increase the sales prices of its products to reflect any increases in
the prices of raw materials.

Pension Plans
The Company has established pension plans (the "Pension Plans") covering
substantially all of the salaried employees of Containers and Plastics,
respectively, including the executive officers (the "Containers Pension Plan"
and the "Plastics Pension Plan," respectively). The Pension Plans are defined
benefit plans intended to be qualified pension plans under Section 401(a) of the
Code, under which pension costs are determined annually on an actuarial basis
with contributions made accordingly.
Certain salaried employees of Containers, including Containers'
executive officers, were covered by the Carnation Employees Plan Number Two for
United States Employees (the "Carnation Pension Plan") immediately prior to the
acquisition of Nestle Can. The Containers Pension Plan recognizes prior service
under the Carnation Pension Plan for purposes of eligibility, vesting and
benefit accrual. The benefits payable at retirement under, or upon vested
termination from, the Containers Pension Plan are based on the benefit formula
and all other factors then in effect under the Containers Pension Plan applied
to all combined pension service. Such benefit shall be offset by the accrued
benefit, if any, such employee is entitled to receive under the Carnation
Pension Plan as of August 31, 1987. In connection with the acquisition of DM
Can, employees of Del Monte that were employed by Containers are also covered by
the Containers Pension Plan. Generally, the Containers Pension Plan credits such
employees with their prior service with Del Monte for purposes of eligibility,
vesting and benefit accrual.
The Containers Pension Plan was amended effective July 1, 1994 to
eliminate mandatory employee contributions, and to substantially revise the
benefit formula. The new formula is based on a percentage of the participant's
average base pay over the final three years of employment, multiplied by the
participant's years of service (not to exceed 35). The particular percentage
applied in the formula depends on when the participant's services were performed
and on whether the participant's average base salary exceeds "covered
compensation" (the average of Social Security wage bases for the 35 years
preceding retirement). For service performed through June 30, 1994, the
percentage is 1.3% up to covered compensation, and 1.75% above covered
compensation. For service performed after June 30, 1994, the percentage is .75%
up to covered compensation, and 1.2% above covered compensation. In no event
will a participant's benefit be less than the benefit accrued as of June 30,
1994 under the prior benefit formula. Average base pay used in the benefit
formula consists of a participant's base salary exclusive of any bonus, overtime
or other extra compensation. A participant becomes fully vested after five years
of service or upon reaching age 55, if earlier.
The following table illustrates the estimated annual normal retirement
benefits that are payable under the Containers Pension Plan based upon the final
pay formula. Such benefit levels assume retirement at age 65, the years of
service shown, continued existence of the Containers Pension Plan without
substantial change and payment in the form of a single life annuity and includes
benefits, if any, payable under the Carnation Pension Plan which will be paid by
that plan.

</TABLE>
Pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Code, there is a limit on the
amount of annual compensation which can be taken into account under the
Containers Pension Plan. The dollar limit on compensation for 1993 was $235,840.
The dollar limit on compensation for 1994 is $150,000. The dollar limit, where
applicable, will reduce the amount of benefits payable to highly compensated
participants in the Containers Pension Plan.
As of December 31, 1994, the years of credited service under the
Containers Pension Plan for the eligible executive officer named in the Summary
Compensation Table is as follows: James D. Beam, 7.
Certain salaried employees of Plastics, including Plastics' executive
officers, were covered by the Monsanto Company Salaried Employees' Pension Plan
(the "Monsanto Pension Plan") immediately prior to the acquisition of Monsanto
Plastic Containers. The Plastics Pension Plan recognizes prior service under the
Monsanto Pension Plan for purposes of eligibility, vesting and benefit accrual.
The benefits payable at retirement under, or upon vested termination from, the
Plastics Pension Plan are based on the benefit formula and all other factors
then in effect under the Plastics Pension Plan applied to all combined pension
service. Such benefit is offset by the accrued benefit, if any, such employee is
entitled to receive under the Monsanto Pension Plan as of August 31, 1987.
Under the Plastics Pension Plan, pensions are based on the greatest of
(i) years of benefit service multiplied by 1.4% of Average Earnings, which is
defined as the greater of (a) average compensation received during the final 36
months of employment or (b) average compensation received during the highest
three of the final five calendar years of employment; (ii) years of benefit
service multiplied by 1.5% of Average Earnings less a 50% social security
offset; or (iii) years of benefit service multiplied by $30.00. For employees
hired between April 1, 1986 and September 1, 1987, the formula is the greater of
(i) years of benefit service multiplied by 1.2% of Average Earnings; or (ii)
years of benefit service multiplied by 1.5% of Average Earnings less a 50%
social security offset. For employees hired after September 1, 1987, the formula
is years of benefit service multiplied by 1.1% of Average Earnings. Average
Earnings under the Plastics Pension Plan is a participant's total cash income
before deduction for contributions, if any, to a plan pursuant to Section 401(k)
of the Code or Section 125 of the Code less any moving expense allowance but, in
no event, shall Average Earnings exceed 125% of base pay of the participant. A
participant becomes fully vested after five years of service or attainment of
Normal Retirement Age (as defined under the Plastics Pension Plan), if earlier.
The following table illustrates the estimated annual normal retirement
benefits that are payable under the Plastics Pension Plan based upon the greater
of 1.4% of Average Earnings, without reduction for social security or other
offset amounts, or 1.5% of Average Earnings less a 50% social security offset.
Such benefit levels assume retirement age at 65, the years of service shown,
continued existence of the Plastics Pension Plan without substantial change and
payment in the form of a single life annuity and includes benefits, if any,
payable under the Monsanto Pension Plan which will be paid by that plan.

Certain Employment Agreements
Certain executive officers and other key employees of Containers and
Plastics (including Messrs. Beam and Gervais) have executed employment
agreements. The initial term of each such employment agreement is generally
three years from its effective date and is automatically extended for successive
one year periods unless terminated pursuant to the terms of such agreement. Each
such employment agreement provides for, among other things, a minimum severance
benefit equal to base salary and benefits for, in most cases, a period of one
year (or the remainder of the term of the agreement, if longer) (i) if the
employee is terminated by his employer for any reason other than disability or
for cause as specified in the agreement or (ii) if the employee voluntarily
terminates employment due to a demotion and, in some cases, significant
relocation, all as specified in the agreement.

the Company are qualified by reference to such plans and agreements, copies of
certain of which have been filed as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Description of Holdings Common Stock
Certain of the statements contained herein are summaries of the detailed
provisions of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Holdings (the
"Certificate of Incorporation") and are qualified in their entirety by reference
to the Certificate of Incorporation, a copy of which is filed herewith.
Under the Certificate of Incorporation, Holdings has authority to issue
500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Holdings
Class A Stock"), 667,500 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per
share (the "Holdings Class B Stock"), and 1,000,000 shares of Class C Common
Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Holdings Class C Stock" and, together with
the Holdings Class A Stock and Holdings Class B Stock, the "Holdings Common
Stock"). Holdings has an aggregate of 1,135,000 shares of Holdings Common Stock
outstanding as follows: (i) 417,500 shares of Holdings Class A Stock; (ii)
667,500 shares of Holdings Class B Stock; and (iii) 50,000 shares of Holdings
Class C Stock. Except as described below, the rights, privileges and powers of
Holdings Class A Stock and Holdings Class B Stock are identical, with each share
of each class being entitled to one vote on all matters to come before the
stockholders of Holdings.
Until the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the
Certificate of Incorporation and as described below), the affirmative vote of
the holders of not less than a majority of the outstanding shares of Holdings
Class A Stock and Holdings Class B Stock, voting as separate classes, shall be
required for the approval of any matter to come before the stockholders of
Holdings, except that (i) the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
Holdings Class A Stock, voting as a separate class, have the sole right to vote
for the election and removal of three directors (the directors elected by the
holders of Holdings Class A Stock being referred to herein as "Class A

in the Certificate of Incorporation. The holders of Holdings Class C Stock have
no voting rights except as provided by applicable law and except that such
holders are entitled to vote as a separate class on certain amendments to the
Certificate of Incorporation as provided therein. In the event Holdings sells
shares of any class of its common stock to the public, the distinctions between
Holdings Class A Stock and Holdings Class B Stock terminate, the powers,
including voting powers, of Holdings Class A Stock and Holdings Class B Stock
shall be identical upon compliance with certain provisions contained in the
Certificate of Incorporation, and any Regulated Stockholder (generally defined
to mean banks) will be entitled to convert all shares of Holdings Class C Stock
held by such stockholder into the same number of shares of Holdings Class B
Stock (or Holdings Class A Stock to the extent such Holdings Class C Stock was
issued upon conversion of Holdings Class A Stock).
After a Change of Control, the affirmative vote of the holders of not
less than a majority of the outstanding shares of Holdings Class A Stock and
Holdings Class B Stock, voting together as a single class, will be required for
the approval of any matter to come before the stockholders of Holdings, except
that the provisions described in clauses (i) and (ii) in the preceding paragraph
shall continue to apply from and after a Change of Control, and except as
otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation with respect to its
amendment. Also, after a Change of Control, the number of Class B Directors will
be increased to five.
In the event that a vacancy among the Class A Directors or the Class B
Directors occurs at any time prior to the election of directors at the next
scheduled annual meeting of stockholders, the vacancy shall be filled, in the
case of the Class A Directors, by either (i) the vote of the holders of a
majority of the outstanding shares of Holdings Class A Stock, at a special
meeting of stockholders, or (ii) by written consent of the holders of a majority
of the outstanding shares of Holdings Class A Stock, and, in the case of the
Class B Directors, by either (i) the vote of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of Holdings Class B Stock at a special meeting or
stockholders, or (ii) by written consent of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of the Holdings Class B Stock.

include the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) Messrs. Silver and
Horrigan shall collectively own, directly or indirectly, less than one-half of
the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Holdings Class A Stock owned by
them directly or indirectly on June 30, 1989 on a common stock equivalent basis,

Discount Debentures, as a result of the occurrence of an event of default

Description of the Holdings Organization Agreement
Concurrently with the issuance and sale to First Plaza of the Holdings
Stock, Holdings, The Morgan Stanley Leveraged Equity Fund II, L.P. ("MSLEF II"),
Bankers Trust New York Corporation ("BTNY"), First Plaza and Messrs. R. Philip
Silver and D. Greg Horrigan entered into the Amended and Restated Organization
Agreement dated as of December 21, 1993 (the "Holdings Organization Agreement")
that provides for the termination of the Organization Agreement dated as of June
30, 1989 by and among Holdings, MSLEF II, BTNY and Messrs. Silver and Horrigan
(except for the indemnification provisions thereof, which provisions survive)
and for the investment by First Plaza in Holdings and the relationships among
the stockholders and between the stockholders and Holdings. Certain of the
statements contained herein are summaries of the detailed provisions of the
Holdings Organization Agreement and are qualified in their entirety by reference
to the Holdings Organization Agreement.
The Holdings Organization Agreement prohibits the disposition of
Holdings' common stock without the prior written consent of Messrs. Silver and
Horrigan and MSLEF II, except for (i) dispositions to affiliates (which, in the
case of First Plaza, includes any successor or underlying trust, and which, in
the case of MSLEF
-38-
<PAGE>
II, does not include any person which is not an Investment Entity (as defined
below)), (ii) dispositions to certain family members of Messrs. Silver and
Horrigan or trusts for the benefit of those family members, (iii) dispositions
to certain parties at any time on or after June 30, 1994, subject to certain
other rights of first refusal discussed below, (iv) the sale by First Plaza to
Holdings of all of the Holdings Stock acquired by First Plaza on December 21,
1993, upon the exercise of Holdings' call option as described below, and (v)
dispositions in connection with an initial public offering of the common stock
of Holdings, as described below. Any transfer of Holdings' common stock (other
than transfers described in clauses (iv) and (v) of the preceding sentence) will
be void unless the transferee agrees in writing prior to the proposed transfer
to be bound by the terms of the Holdings Organization Agreement.
Under the Holdings Organization Agreement, MSLEF II may effect a sale of
stock to an Investment Entity (generally defined as any person who (i) is
primarily engaged in the business of investing in securities of other companies
and not taking an active role in the management or operations of such companies
and (ii) does not permit the participation or involvement in any way in the
business or affairs of Holdings of a person who is engaged in a business not
described in clause (i)) or, in the event of certain defaults under the amended
and restated management services agreement by and between S&H, a company wholly
owned by Messrs. Silver and Horrigan, and Holdings (described below under
"Description of Management Agreements"), to a third party, in each case, if it
first offers such stock to: (a) Holdings, (b) the Group (defined generally to
mean, collectively, Messrs. Silver and Horrigan and their respective affiliates
and certain related family transferees and estates, with Mr. Silver and his
affiliates and certain related family transferees and estates being deemed to be
collectively one member of the Group, and Mr. Horrigan and his affiliates and
certain related family transferees and estates being deemed to be collectively
one member of the Group) and (c) BTNY, in each case on the same terms and
conditions as the proposed sale to an Investment Entity or the proposed third
party sale. In addition, in any such sale by MSLEF II, BTNY and First Plaza must
be given the opportunity to sell the same percentage of its stock to such
Investment Entity or third party. Each member of the Group may transfer shares
of stock to a third party if such holder first offers such shares to: (a) the
other member of the Group, (b) Holdings, (c) MSLEF II and (d) BTNY, in each case
on the same terms and conditions as the proposed third party sale. BTNY may
effect a sale of stock to a third party if it first offers such shares to: (a)
Holdings, (b) MSLEF II and (c) the Group, in each case on the same terms and
conditions as the proposed third party sale.
Under the Holdings Organization Agreement, either MSLEF II or the Group
has the right to require a recapitalization transaction. A recapitalization
transaction is defined as any transaction (such as a merger, consolidation,
exchange of securities or liquidation) involving Holdings pursuant to which
MSLEF II and the Group retain their proportionate ownership interest in the
surviving entity if the following conditions are met: (i) the value of any
securities of the surviving entity acquired or retained by the party not
initiating the recapitalization transaction does not exceed 67% of the
difference between (x) the value of such securities and any cash received by
such party and (y) all taxes payable as a result of the transaction, (ii) if
MSLEF II initiates the recapitalization transaction and will not own all the
voting equity securities of the surviving entity not owned by the Group, the
Group shall have the right to purchase such securities, (iii) if the Group
initiates the recapitalization transaction and will not own all of the voting
equity securities of the surviving entity, MSLEF II shall have the right to
purchase such securities, and (iv) the majority in principal amount of the
indebtedness incurred in connection with such transaction shall be held for at
least one year by persons not affiliated with either MSLEF II or any member of
the Group.
At any time prior to December 21, 1998, Holdings has the right and
option to purchase from First Plaza, and First Plaza shall have the obligation
to sell to Holdings, all (but not less than all) of the Holdings Stock for a
price per share equal to the greater of (i) $120 per share and (ii) the purchase
price necessary to yield on an annual basis a compound return on investment of
forty percent (40%). The number of shares subject to such call and the call
purchase price shall be proportionately adjusted to take into account any stock
-39-
<PAGE>
dividend, stock split, combination of shares, subdivision or other
recapitalization of the capital stock of Holdings.
The Holdings Organization Agreement provides that at any time after June
15, 1996, the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of
Holdings Class A Stock and Holdings Class B Stock (considered together as a
class) may by written notice to Holdings require Holdings to pursue the first
public offering of Holdings' common stock pursuant to an effective registration
statement (an "IPO") on the terms and conditions provided in the Holdings
Organization Agreement. In addition to the portion of the IPO which shall
consist of shares of Holdings' common stock to be sold by Holdings, the IPO may
also include a secondary tranche consisting of shares of Holdings' common stock
to be sold by stockholders of Holdings.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Holdings Organization Agreement, each
of MSLEF II, BTNY, First Plaza and Messrs. Silver and Horrigan has agreed to
take all action (including voting its shares of Holdings' common stock) to
approve the adoption of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Holdings,
as amended, the Amended and Restated By-laws of Holdings, and the Amended and
Restated Management Services Agreement (the "Post-IPO Management Services
Contract"), in each case substantially in the form agreed to pursuant to the
Holdings Organization Agreement and in each case to become effective at the time
an IPO is completed. The Post-IPO Management Services Contract provides, among
other things, for the payment to S&H of management fees of $2.0 million annually
plus reimbursement of expenses. See "Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions -- Management Agreements" below.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Holdings Organization Agreement, MSLEF
II has agreed that it will not vote its shares of Holdings Class B Stock in
favor of any changes in the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of Holdings
which would adversely affect the rights of First Plaza, unless First Plaza has
consented in writing to such change. In addition, so long as First Plaza shall
hold not less than 18.73% of the issued and outstanding shares of Holdings Class
B Stock, First Plaza shall have the right to nominate one of the Class B
Directors to be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders in accordance
with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, and the holders of
Holdings Class B Stock parties to the Holdings Organization Agreement have
agreed to vote their shares of Holdings Class B Stock in favor of such nominee.
In addition, in the event that First Plaza, MSLEF II or BTNY shall
purchase any shares of Holdings Class A Stock, such purchaser has agreed that it
will vote such shares in accordance with the directions of the "holders of a
majority of the shares of Class A Stock held by the Group" (defined generally to
mean the holders of a majority of the aggregate of 417,500 shares of Holdings
Class A Stock held by Messrs. Silver and Horrigan at December 21, 1993, which at
the time of any such determination have been continuously and are held by the
Group) until such time as a Change of Control has occurred. In the event that
Messrs. Silver or Horrigan shall purchase any shares of Holdings Class B Stock,
such purchaser agrees that it will vote such shares in accordance with the
directions of MSLEF II, unless MSLEF II and First Plaza (together with their
respective affiliates) shall hold directly or indirectly less than one-half of
the aggregate number of shares of Holdings Class B Stock held by MSLEF II and
First Plaza immediately following the issuance and sale of the Holdings Stock to
First Plaza on December 21, 1993.
Pursuant to the terms of the Holdings Organization Agreement, Holdings
entered into an amended and restated management services agreement with S&H, a
corporation wholly owned by Messrs. Silver and Horrigan. See "Description of
Management Agreements" below.
The Holdings Organization Agreement terminates upon the earlier of (i)
the mutual agreement of the parties, (ii) such time as it becomes unlawful,
(iii) the completion of an IPO, and (iv) June 30, 1999. The parties may agree to
extend the term of the Holdings Organization Agreement.

Description of the Holdings Stockholders Agreement
Concurrently with the issuance and sale to First Plaza of the Holdings
Stock, Holdings, MSLEF II, BTNY, First Plaza and Messrs. Silver and Horrigan
entered into a Stockholders Agreement dated as of December 21, 1993 (the
"Stockholders Agreement") that provides for certain prospective rights and
obligations among the stockholders and between the stockholders and Holdings.
The operative provisions of the Stockholders Agreement do not take effect until
after the occurrence of an IPO, at which time the Holdings Organization
Agreement will have terminated in accordance with its terms as described above
under "Description of the Holdings Organization Agreement." Certain of the
statements contained herein are summaries of the detailed provisions of the
Stockholders Agreement and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the
Stockholders Agreement.
The Stockholders Agreement provides that for a period of eight years
after the IPO, each of MSLEF II and First Plaza shall have the right to demand
two separate registrations of its shares of Holdings' common stock (equalling a
total of four separate demand registrations); provided, however, that such
demand right will terminate as to MSLEF II or First Plaza, as the case may be,
at such time as MSLEF II or First Plaza, as the case may be, together with its
affiliates, owns less than five percent of the issued and outstanding shares of
Holdings' common stock at any time. If, at any time or from time to time for a
period of eight years after the IPO, Holdings shall determine to register
Holdings' common stock (other than in connection with certain nonunderwritten
offerings), Holdings will offer each of MSLEF II, BTNY, First Plaza and Messrs.
Silver and Horrigan the opportunity to register shares of Holdings' common stock
it holds in a "piggyback registration."
The Stockholders Agreement prohibits the transfer prior to June 30, 1999
(or, in the case of any restriction applicable to First Plaza, December 21,
1998) by MSLEF II, First Plaza or Messrs. Silver or Horrigan of Holdings' common
stock without the prior written consent of Messrs. Silver and Horrigan and MSLEF
II, except for (i) transfers made in connection with a public offering or a Rule
144 Open Market Transaction (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), (ii)
transfers made to an affiliate, which, in the case of a transfer by First Plaza
or MSLEF II to an affiliate, must be an Investment Entity (defined generally to
be any person who is primarily engaged in the business of investing in
securities of other companies and not taking an active role in the management or
operations of such companies), (iii) transfers made to certain family members of
Messrs. Silver and Horrigan or trusts for the benefit of those family members,
(iv) certain transfers by First Plaza to a third party that comply with certain
rights of first refusal of the Group and MSLEF II set forth in the Stockholders
Agreement, (v) certain transfers by MSLEF II to an Investment Entity or, in the
event of certain defaults under the amended and restated management services
agreement between S&H and Holdings, to a third party, that comply with certain
rights of first refusal of the Group set forth in the Stockholders Agreement,
(vi) certain transfers by either member of the Group to a third party that
comply with certain rights of first refusal of the other member of the Group and
MSLEF II set forth in the Stockholders Agreement, and (vii) in the case of MSLEF
II, a distribution of all or substantially all of the shares of Holdings' common
stock then owned by MSLEF II to the partners of MSLEF II (a "MSLEF
Distribution"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, MSLEF II may pledge its shares of
Holdings' common stock to a lender or lenders reasonably acceptable to Holdings
to secure a loan or loans to MSLEF II. In the event of any proposed foreclosure
of such pledge, such shares will be subject to certain rights of first refusal
of the Group set forth in the Stockholders Agreement.
The Stockholders Agreement provides that until December 21, 1998, for so
long as MSLEF II and its affiliates (excluding the limited partners of MSLEF II
who may acquire shares of Holdings' common stock from MSLEF II in a MSLEF
Distribution) shall hold at least one-half of the number of shares of Holdings'
common stock held by MSLEF II on December 21, 1993 (as adjusted, if necessary,
to take into account any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares,
subdivision or recapitalization of the capital stock of Holdings), the parties
and their Restricted Voting Transferees (as defined in the Stockholders
Agreement) shall use their
-41-
<PAGE>
best efforts (including to vote any shares of Holdings' common stock owned or
controlled by such person or otherwise) to cause the nomination and election of
two (2) members of the Board of Directors of Holdings to be chosen by MSLEF II;
provided, however, that each such nominee shall be (i) either an employee of
Morgan Stanley whose primary responsibility is managing investments for MSLEF II
(or a successor or related partnership) or (ii) a person reasonably acceptable
to the Group not engaged in (as a director, officer, employee, agent or
consultant or as a holder of more than five percent of the equity securities of)
a business competitive with that of Holdings.
In addition, until December 21, 1998, for so long as the Group shall
hold at least one-half of the number of shares of Holdings' common stock held by
it in the aggregate on December 21, 1993 (as adjusted, if necessary, to take
into account any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, subdivision
or recapitalization of the capital stock of Holdings), the parties and their
Restricted Voting Transferees shall use their best efforts (including to vote
any shares of Holdings' common stock owned or controlled by such person or
otherwise) to cause the nomination and election of two (2) individuals nominated
by the "holders of a majority of the shares of [c]ommon [s]tock held by the
Group" (as such phrase is defined in the Stockholders Agreement) as members of
the Board of Directors of Holdings; provided, however, that at least one (1) of
such nominees shall be Mr. Silver or Mr. Horrigan and the other person, if not
Mr. Silver or Mr. Horrigan, shall be a person reasonably acceptable to MSLEF II,
so long as MSLEF II and its affiliates (other than any affiliate which is not an
Investment Entity and excluding the limited partners of MSLEF II who may acquire
shares of Holdings' common stock from MSLEF II in a MSLEF distribution) shall
hold at least one-half of the number of shares of Holdings' common stock held by
MSLEF II at the Closing Date (as adjusted, if necessary, to take into account
any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, subdivision or
recapitalization of the capital stock of Holdings).
Subject to the terms of the preceding two paragraphs, for so long as the
Group shall hold at least one-half of the number of shares of Holdings' common
stock held by it in the aggregate at the Closing Date (as adjusted, if
necessary, to take into account any stock dividend, stock split, combination of
shares, subdivision or recapitalization of the capital stock of Holdings), First
Plaza and its Restricted Voting Transferees shall vote all shares of Holdings'
common stock held by them in favor of any other directors standing for election
to Holdings' Board of Directors for whom the holders of a majority of the shares
of Holdings' common stock held by the Group shall direct First Plaza to vote.
The Stockholders Agreement further provides that until December 21,
1998, MSLEF II and its Restricted Voting Transferees shall vote all shares of
Holdings' common stock held by them against any unsolicited merger, or sale of
Holdings' business or its assets, if such transaction is opposed by the holders
of a majority of the shares of common stock held by the Group, unless as of the
applicable record date for such vote, the Group holds less than ninety percent
(90%) of the number of shares of Holdings' common stock held by it in the
aggregate at the Closing Date (as adjusted, if necessary, to take into account
any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, subdivision or
recapitalization of the capital stock of Holdings). Until December 21, 1998,
First Plaza and its Restricted Voting Transferees shall vote all shares of
common stock held by them against any unsolicited merger, or sale of Holdings'
business or its assets, if such transaction is opposed by the holders of a
majority of the shares of common stock held by the Group; provided, however,
that First Plaza and its Restricted Voting Transferees shall not be required to
vote their shares of Holdings' common stock in accordance with the foregoing if
(i) in connection with such merger or sale, (x) First Plaza and its Restricted
Voting Transferees propose to sell or otherwise transfer all of their shares of
Holdings' common stock to a third party for aggregate cash consideration of less
than $10 million and (y) the Group and/or MSLEF II has not exercised their right
of first refusal in respect of such sale or transfer by First Plaza or such
right of first refusal in respect of the shares of Holdings' common stock held
by First Plaza shall have terminated, or (ii) as of the applicable record date
for such vote, the Group holds less than ninety percent (90%) of the number of
shares of Holdings' common stock held by it in the aggregate at December 21,
1993

stock of Holdings).
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.
Management Agreements
Holdings, Silgan, Containers and Plastics each entered into an amended
and restated management services agreement dated as of December 21, 1993
(collectively, the "Management Agreements") with S&H to replace in its entirety
its existing management services agreement, as amended, with S&H. Pursuant to
the Management Agreements, S&H provides Holdings, Silgan, Containers and
Plastics and their respective subsidiaries with general management and
administrative services (the "Services"). The Management Agreements provide for
payments to S&H (i) on a monthly basis, of $5,000 plus an amount equal to 2.475%
of consolidated earnings before depreciation, interest and taxes of Holdings and
its subsidiaries ("Holdings EBDIT"), for such calendar month until Holdings
EBDIT for the calendar year shall have reached an amount set forth in the
Management Agreements for such calendar year (the "Scheduled Amount") and 1.65%
of Holdings EBDIT for such calendar month to the extent that Holdings EBDIT for
the calendar year shall have exceeded the Scheduled Amount but shall not have
been greater than an amount (the "Maximum Amount") set forth in the Management
Agreements (the "Monthly Management Fee") and (ii) on a quarterly basis, of an
amount equal to 2.475% of Holdings EBDIT for such calendar quarter until
Holdings EBDIT for the calendar year shall have reached the Scheduled Amount and
1.65% of Holdings EBDIT for such calendar quarter to the extent that Holdings
EBDIT for the calendar year shall have exceeded the Scheduled Amount but shall
not have been greater than the Maximum Amount (the "Quarterly Management Fee").
The Scheduled Amount was $71.5 million for the calendar year 1994 and increases
by $6.0 million for each year thereafter. The Maximum Amount is $90.197 million
for the calendar year 1994, $95.758 million for the calendar year 1995, $98.101
million for the calendar year 1996, $100.504 million for the calendar year 1997,
$102.964 million for the calendar year 1998 and $105.488 million for the
calendar year 1999. The Management Agreements provide that upon receipt by
Silgan of a notice from Bankers Trust that certain events of default under the
Credit Agreement have occurred, the Quarterly Management Fee shall continue to
accrue, but shall not be paid to S&H until the fulfillment of certain
conditions, as set forth in the Management Agreements.
The Management Agreements continue in effect until the earliest of: (i)
the completion of an IPO; (ii) June 30, 1999; (iii) at the option of each of the
respective companies, the failure or refusal of S&H to perform its obligations
under the Management Agreements, if such failure continues unremedied for more
than 60 days after written notice of its existence shall have been given; (iv)
at the option of MSLEF II (a) if S&H or Holdings is declared insolvent or
bankrupt or a voluntary bankruptcy petition is filed by either of them, (b) upon
the occurrence of any of the following events with respect to S&H or Holdings if
not cured, dismissed or stayed within 45 days: the filing of an involuntary
petition in bankruptcy, the appointment of a trustee or receiver or the
institution of a proceeding seeking a reorganization, arrangement, liquidation
or dissolution, (c) if S&H or Holdings voluntarily seeks a reorganization or
arrangement or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or (d) upon the
death or permanent disability of both of Messrs. Silver and Horrigan; and (v)
the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Restated Certificate of
Incorporation of Holdings and as described under "Description of Holdings Common
Stock" above).
In addition to the management fees described above, the Management
Agreements provide for the payment to S&H on the closing date of the IPO of an
amount, if any (the "Additional Amount") equal to the sum of the present values,
calculated for each year or portion thereof, of (i) the amount of the annual
management fee for such year or portion thereof that otherwise would have been
payable to S&H for each such year or portion thereof for the period beginning as
of the time of the IPO and ending on June 30, 1999 (the
-43-
<PAGE>
"Remaining Term") pursuant to the provisions described in the preceding
paragraph but for the occurrence of the IPO, minus (ii) the amount payable to
S&H for the Remaining Term at the rate of $2.0 million per year. The Management
Agreements further provide that the amounts described in clause (i) of the first
sentence of this paragraph will be calculated based upon S&H's good faith
projections of Holdings EBDIT for each such year (or portion thereof) during the
Remaining Term (the "Estimated Fees"), which projections shall be made on a
basis consistent with S&H's past projections. The difference between the amount
of Estimated Fees for any particular year and $2 million shall be discounted to
present value at the time of the IPO using a discount rate of eight percent (8%)
per annum, compounded annually.
Additionally, the Management Agreements provide that Holdings, Silgan,
Containers, Plastics and their respective subsidiaries shall reimburse S&H, on a
monthly basis, for all out-of-pocket expenses paid by S&H in providing the
Services, including fees and expenses to consultants, subcontractors and other
third parties, in connection with such Services. All fees and expenses paid to
S&H under each of the Management Agreements are credited against amounts paid to
S&H under the other Management Agreements. Under the terms of the Management
Agreements, Holdings, Silgan, Containers and Plastics have agreed, subject to
certain exceptions, to indemnify S&H and its affiliates, officers, directors,
employees, subcontractors, consultants or controlling persons against any
losses, damages, costs and expenses they may sustain arising in connection with
the Management Agreements.
The Management Agreements also provide that S&H may select a consultant,
subcontractor or agent to provide the Services. S&H has retained Morgan Stanley
to render financial advisory services to S&H. In connection with such retention,
S&H has agreed to pay Morgan Stanley a fee equal to 9.1% of the fees paid to S&H
under the Management Agreements.
The Credit Agreement does not permit the payment of fees under the
Management Agreements above amounts provided for therein.
For the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, pursuant to the
arrangements described above, S&H earned aggregate fees, including reimbursable
expenses and fees payable to Morgan Stanley, of $5.0 million, $4.4 million and
$4.2 million, respectively, from the Company, Holdings, Containers and Plastics,
and during 1994, 1993 and 1992 Morgan Stanley earned fees of $383,000, $337,000
and $324,000, respectively.
Other
In connection with the 1989 Mergers, subject to the provisions of
Delaware law, the Company agreed to indemnify each director, officer, employee,
fiduciary and agent of the Company, Containers, Plastics and its subsidiaries
and their respective affiliates against costs, expenses, judgments, fines,
losses, claims, damages and settlements (except for any settlement effected
without the Company's written consent) in connection with any claims, actions,
suits, proceedings or investigations arising out of or related to the 1989
Mergers or their financing, including certain liabilities arising under the
federal securities laws.
Simultaneously with the consummation of the 1989 Mergers, a tax

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors and Stockholder
Silgan Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Silgan
Corporation as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, common stockholder's equity and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994. Our audits
also included the financial statement schedules listed in the index at Item
14(a). These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of Silgan Corporation at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the
consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the
related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material
respects the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Notes 2 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements,
in 1993 the Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes,
postemployment benefits and postretirement benefits other than pensions.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash equivalents represent investments with maturities of three months or
less from the time of purchase and are carried at cost which approximates
fair value due to the short maturities of those instruments.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from domestic
companies. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customer's
financial condition and collateral is not generally required. The Company
maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts at a level which management
believes is sufficient to cover potential credit losses.

Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market (net realizable
value) and are principally accounted for by the last-in, first-out method
(LIFO). The components of inventories at December 31, 1994 and 1993
consist of the following (in thousands):
1994 1993
Raw materials and supplies $ 40,196 $ 26,458
Work-in-process 19,045 17,105
Finished goods 63,409 65,072
122,650 108,635
Adjustment to value inventory
at cost on the LIFO method (221) 18
$122,429 $108,653
The amount of inventory recorded on the first-in first-out method at
December 31, 1994 and 1993 was $6.5 million and $7.4 million, respectively.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at historical cost and are
depreciated on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives.
Major renewals and betterments are capitalized and maintenance and repair
expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. The total amount of
repairs and maintenance expense was $19.9 million in 1994; $17.1 million in
1993; and $15.0 million in 1992.
The principal estimated useful lives are 35 years for buildings and range
between 3 to 18 years for machinery and equipment. Effective October 1,
1994, the Company extended the estimated useful lives of certain fixed
assets to more properly reflect the true economic lives of the assets and
to better align the Company's depreciable lives with the predominate
practice in industry. The change had the effect of decreasing depreciation
expense for the fourth quarter and the year by approximately $1.3 million
and increasing net income by $0.8 million.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Property, plant and equipment (continued)
Based upon a review of its depreciable assets, the Company determined, in
the fourth quarter of 1994, that certain adjustments were necessary to
properly reflect net realizable values. These adjustments include $2.6
million to write-down the excess carrying value over estimated realizable
value of various plant facilities held for sale and $14.1 million to reduce
the carrying value of certain technologically obsolete and inoperable
equipment.
Goodwill
The Company has classified as goodwill the cost in excess of fair value of
net assets acquired in purchase transactions. Goodwill is being amortized
on a straight-line basis over periods ranging between 20 and 40 years. The
Company periodically evaluates the existence of goodwill impairment to
assess whether goodwill is fully recoverable from projected, undiscounted
net cash flows of the related business unit. Impairments would be
recognized in operating results if a permanent diminution in value were to
occur. Goodwill amortization charged to operations was $1.2 million in
1994; $0.5 million in 1993; and $0.5 million in 1992. Accumulated
amortization of goodwill at December 31, 1994 and 1993 was $3.7 million and
$2.5 million, respectively.
Other Assets
Other assets consist principally of debt issuance costs which are being
amortized straight-line over the terms of the related debt agreements (3 to
10 years). The charge incurred for amortization of debt issuance cost was
$4.6 million in 1994; $2.6 million in 1993; and $2.2 million in 1992.
Other intangible assets are amortized over their expected useful lives
using the straight-line method.
Other assets at December 31, 1994 and 1993 consist of the following (in
thousands):
1994 1993
Debt issuance costs $18,092 $18,163

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment to the
customer. As is common in the packaging industry, the Company must
manufacture containers for its seasonal pack customers throughout the year.
Revenue is recognized for such customers at the time insurable risk has
passed to the customer.
Income Taxes
Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes". Under SFAS No. 109, the liability method is used to
calculate deferred income taxes. The provision for income taxes includes
federal, state and foreign income taxes currently payable and those
deferred because of temporary differences between the financial statement
and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company had previously
reported under SFAS No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Under SFAS No.
96, the Company had recognized a federal income tax benefit from the tax
losses of Holdings. Under SFAS No. 109, this benefit will be reflected as
a contribution to additional paid-in capital instead of as a reduction of
income tax expense. As a result of this change, effective January 1, 1993,
the Company recorded a cumulative charge to earnings and a credit to paid-
in-capital of $6 million for the difference in methods up to the date of
adoption. As permitted by SFAS No. 109, the 1992 financial statements have
not been restated. See Note 7 - Income Taxes.
Postemployment Benefits
During 1993, the Company adopted SFAS No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits". The cumulative effect as of January 1, 1993 of
this accounting change was to decrease net income by $0.8 million (after
related income taxes of $0.5 million).
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in
estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount reported in the balance
sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value.

SILGAN CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Fair Values of Financial Instruments (continued)
Short and long-term debt: The carrying amounts of the Company's borrowings
under its working capital loans and variable-rate borrowings approximate
their fair value. The fair values of fixed-rate borrowings are based on
quoted market prices.
Letters of Credit: Fair values of the Company's outstanding letters of
credit are based on current contractual amounts outstanding.
Derivatives
The Company has limited involvement with derivative financial instruments
and does not use them for trading purposes. On occasion, the Company has
used interest rate hedge agreements to reduce the impact of increases in
interest rates on floating-rate long-term debt. During 1994 and 1993, the
Company was not party to any interest rate hedge agreements. In addition,
during 1994 and 1993, the Company did not use derivative instruments to
hedge its commodity and foreign exchange risks.
3. Acquisitions
On December 21, 1993, Containers acquired from Del Monte Corporation ("Del
Monte") substantially all of the fixed assets and certain working capital
of Del Monte's container manufacturing business in the United States ("DM
Can"). The final purchase price for the assets acquired and the assumption
of certain specified liabilities, including related transaction costs, was
$73.3 million. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction
and the results of operations have been included with the Company's results
from the acquisition date. During 1994, the Company finalized its purchase
price accounting, adjusting the fair value of assets acquired and
liabilities assumed to the amounts determined based upon final appraisals
and valuations. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of
net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill. The aggregate purchase cost
and its allocation to the assets and liabilities is as follows (in
thousands):
Net working capital acquired $21,944
Property, plant and equipment 47,167
Goodwill 13,729
Other liabilities assumed (9,494)

Bank Credit Agreement
On December 21, 1993, the Company, Containers and Plastics (the
"Borrowers") entered into a new credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"),
with a group of banks to refinance in full amounts owing under the former
bank credit facility, which included $41.6 million of term loans, and to
finance, in part, the acquisition of DM Can. As a result of the early
extinguishment of debt, the Company incurred a charge of $0.8 million (net
of $0.5 million of taxes). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company
borrowed $60.0 million of A Term Loans and $80.0 million of B Term Loans.
The A Term Loans are payable each year in scheduled installments with the
final payment due September 15, 1996. The B Term Loans are payable in full
on September 15, 1996. Additionally, further repayments are required at
the time of certain asset sales or the issuance of equity. During 1994, in
addition to the $20.0 million mandatory payment, a repayment of $0.5
million was made upon the sale of certain assets.
The Credit Agreement also provides Containers and Plastics, together, with
a revolving credit facility of $70.0 million for working capital needs (the
"Working Capital Loans"). The aggregate amount of Working Capital Loans
which may be outstanding at anytime is limited to 85% of Containers' and
Plastics' eligible accounts receivable and 50% of Containers' and Plastics'
eligible inventory. In lieu of Working Capital Loans, Containers and
Plastics may request the issuance of up to $15.0 million of letters of
credit. At December 31, 1994, commitments under the revolving credit
facility of $51.9 million were available after taking into account
outstanding letters of credit of $5.5 million. The Working Capital Loans
can be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed from time-to-time until final
maturity on September 15, 1996.

4. Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt (continued)
Bank Credit Agreement (continued)
The borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be designated by the
respective Borrowers as Base Rate or Eurodollar Rate borrowings. The Base
Rate is the highest of (i) 1/2 of 1% in excess of Adjusted Certificate of
Deposit Rate, (ii) 1/2 of 1% in excess of the Federal Funds Rate or (iii)
Bankers Trust Company's prime lending rate. Base Rate borrowings bear
interest at the Base Rate plus 1.75%, in the case of A Term Loans; 2.0%, in
the case of Working Capital Loans; and 2.25%, in the case of B Term Loans.
Eurodollar Rate borrowings bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate plus 2.75%
in the case of A Term Loans; 3.0%, in the case of Working Capital Loans;
and 3.25%, in the case of B Term Loans. At December 31, 1994 the interest
rate for Base Rate borrowings ranged between 10 1/4% and 10 1/2% and for
Eurodollar Rate borrowings ranged between 8 5/8% and 10%.
For 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, the average amount of borrowings
under the Working Capital Loans was $14.4 million, $51.9 million and $44.5
million; the average annual interest rate paid on borrowings was 8.4%, 6.0%
and 6.3%; and the highest amount of such borrowings at any month-end was
$43.9 million, $80.3 million and $80.8 million.
The Credit Agreement provides for the payment of a commitment fee of 0.5%
per annum on the daily average unused portion of commitments available
under the Working Capital Loans as well as a 3 1/4% per annum fee on
outstanding Letters of Credit.
The indebtedness under the Credit Agreement is guaranteed by Holdings and
each of the Borrowers and secured by a security interest in substantially
all of the respective real and personal property of the Borrowers. Such
security interest also secures on an equal and ratable basis, subject to
certain intercreditor arrangements, the Senior Secured Notes.
Additionally, the stock of Silgan and the stock of principally all of its
subsidiaries have been pledged to the lenders under the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement contains various covenants which limit or restrict,
among other things, indebtedness, liens, dividends, leases, capital
expenditures, and the use of proceeds from asset sales, as well as
requiring the Company to meet certain specified financial covenants. The
Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the Credit
Agreement.

4. Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt (continued)
Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes
The Senior Secured Notes (the "Secured Notes") constitute senior
indebtedness of the Company and are secured by a first lien on
substantially all of the assets of the Company. Such collateral also
secures on an equal and ratable basis, subject to certain intercreditor
arrangements, all indebtedness of the Company under the Credit Agreement.
The Secured Notes mature on June 30, 1997 and bear interest, which is
payable quarterly, at a rate of three-month LIBOR plus 3%. The interest
rate is adjusted quarterly. The interest rate in effect at December 31,
1994 was 9.44%.
The Secured Notes are redeemable at the option of the Company at par plus
accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Net cash proceeds from
certain asset sales and the issuance of capital stock by the Company are
required to be applied to prepay the Secured Notes and indebtedness under
the Credit Agreement on a pro rata basis, subject to certain exceptions.
The Secured Notes contain covenants which are comparable to or less
restrictive than those under the Credit Agreement.
11 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes
The 11 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes (the "11 3/4% Notes") which mature on
June 15, 2002, represent unsecured general obligations of Silgan,
subordinate in right of payment to obligations of the Company under the
Credit Agreement and the Secured Notes and effectively subordinate to all
of the obligations of the subsidiaries of the Company. Interest is payable
semi-annually on June 15 and December 15.
The 11 3/4% Notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or
in part, at any time during the twelve months commencing June 15 of the
following years at the indicated percentages of their principal amount,
plus accrued interest:
Redemption
Year Percentage
1997 105.8750%
1998 102.9375%
1999 and thereafter 100.0000%
The 11 3/4% Notes Indenture contains covenants which are comparable to or

Notes.
The estimated fair value of the 11 3/4% Notes at December 31, 1994, based
upon quoted market prices, was $140.4 million.

1992 Refinancing
Effective June 29, 1992, the Company and Holdings refinanced a significant
portion of their indebtedness (the "Refinancing"). The Refinancing
included a private placement by the Company of $50.0 million principal
amount of its Secured Notes and a public offering of $135.0 million
principal amount of the Company's 11 3/4% Notes. The proceeds from the
debt offerings, net of $10.3 million of transaction fees and expenses, were
used, in part, to redeem the Company's 14% Senior Subordinated Notes (the
"14% Notes") and 15% Cumulative Exchangeable Redeemable Preferred Stock
(the "Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock (300,083 shares) was redeemed
on August 16, 1992 at a redemption price of $105 per share plus accrued
dividends. The 14% Notes ($85.0 million aggregate principal amount) were
redeemed on August 28, 1992 at a redemption price of 105% of the principal
amount thereof plus accrued interest.
In conjunction with the Refinancing, the credit agreement among various
bank lenders was amended to, among other things, permit the Refinancing,
and the Company repaid $30.0 million of term loans thereunder. In
addition, the Company repaid the $25.2 million advance from Holdings and
advanced $16.0 million to Holdings. Upon completion of the redemption of
the 14% Notes, the Company paid a $15.7 million dividend to Holdings which
Holdings, along with additional cash earned on its short term investments
of proceeds received by it in connection with the Refinancing, used to
retire the outstanding advance from the Company. Such payments to
Holdings, along with the public offering by Holdings of its 13 1/4% Senior
Discount Debentures due 2002 (the "Discount Debentures") for an aggregate
amount of proceeds of $165.4 million, were used by Holdings to redeem its
Senior Reset Debentures due 2004 (the "Holdings Reset Debentures") on July
29, 1992.
As a result of the Refinancing, unamortized deferred financing costs
relating to the 14% Notes, the Preferred Stock and the repayment of bank
term loans totaling $3.3 million in the aggregate were written off in 1992
and, along with the redemption premiums of $5.8 million, are reflected as
an extraordinary charge. Since the Company was reporting under SFAS No.
96, there was no tax effect on this charge due to the tax allocation
arrangement with Holdings and Holdings' net operating loss position.

5. Retirement Plans
The Company sponsors pension and defined contribution plans which cover
substantially all employees, other than union employees covered by multi-
employer defined benefit pension plans under collective bargaining
agreements. The pension benefits are paid based on either a career
average, final pay or years of service formula. With respect to certain
hourly employees, pension benefits are provided for based on stated amounts
for each year of service. It is the Company's policy to fund accrued
pension and defined contribution costs in compliance with ERISA
requirements. Assets of the plans consist primarily of equity and bond
funds.
Based on the latest actuarial information available, the following table
sets forth the defined benefit plans funded status as of December 31 (in

During 1994, Del Monte transferred fund assets of $8.9 million to the
Company, as calculated using a discount rate of 9%, in accordance with the
terms of the DM Can purchase agreement. In connection with the acquisition
of DM Can, the Company assumed defined benefit plan obligations, as
calculated using its 1993 discount rate of 7.5%, of $10.9 million.
The assumptions used in determining the actuarial present value of plan
benefit obligations as of December 31 are as follows:
1994 1993 1992

Net pension cost of defined
benefit plans $4,122 $2,486 $2,824
In addition, the Company participates in several multi-employer pension
plans which provide defined benefits to certain of its union employees.
The contributions to multi-employer plans were $2.7 million in 1994; $2.0
million in 1993; and $2.2 million in 1992. The Company also sponsors
defined contribution plans covering substantially all employees. Company
contributions to these plans are based upon employee contributions and, in
certain situations, are based upon operating profitability. Contributions
charged to income for these plans were $2.5 million in 1994; $1.5 million
in 1993; and $1.9 million in 1992.

6. Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions
Effective January 1, 1993, the Company changed its method of accounting for
postretirement health care and other insurance benefits to conform to the
provisions of SFAS No. 106 "Employers' Accounting for Post Retirement
Benefits Other Than Pensions", which requires accrual of these benefits
over the period during which active employees become eligible for such
benefits. Previously, the Company recognized the cost of providing such
benefits on the pay-as-you-go basis. The Company elected to immediately
recognize a cumulative charge of $3.1 million (after related income taxes
of $1.9 million) for this change in accounting principle which represents
the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation existing as of January 1,
1993. The postretirement benefit cost for 1992 has not been restated.
The Company has defined benefit health care and life insurance plans that
provide postretirement benefits to certain employees. The plans are
contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually, and contain
cost sharing features including deductibles and coinsurance. The Company
does not fund these plans.
The following table presents the plan's funded status and amounts
recognized in the Company's balance sheet as of December 31 (in thousands):

1994 1993
Discount rate 8.5% 7.5%
Weighted average rate of compensation
increase 4.5% 4.5%
The assumed health care cost trend used in measuring the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation was 14% in 1994 and 15% in 1993,
ultimately declining to 6% in 2003 and remaining at that level thereafter.
A 1% increase in the trend rate assumption would increase the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation as of December 31, 1994 by approximately
$0.1 million and increase the aggregate of the service and interest cost
components of the net periodic postretirement benefit cost for 1994 by
approximately $0.02 million.
7. Income Taxes
The income tax provision for 1994 and 1993 reflects the adoption of SFAS
No. 109 under which the Company provides for taxes as if it were a separate
taxpayer. The income tax provision for 1992 takes into consideration
certain matters covered under a tax allocation arrangement with Holdings,
under which the Company obtains a federal income tax benefit from Holdings'
tax losses.

7. Income Taxes (continued)
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.
Significant components of the Company's deferred tax liabilities and assets
at December 31 are as follows (in thousands):
1994 1993
Deferred tax liabilities:
Tax over book depreciation $21,900 $20,700
Book over tax basis of assets acquired 21,400 24,000
Other 4,100 6,392
Total deferred tax liabilities 47,400 51,092
Deferred tax assets:
Book reserves not yet deductible
for tax purposes 24,600 20,700
Net operating loss carryforwards 3,800 7,800
Benefit taken for Holdings' losses 5,500 7,575
Other 483 2,000
Total deferred tax assets 34,383 38,075
Net deferred tax liabilities $13,017 $13,017
The Company files a consolidated Federal income tax return with Holdings.
In accordance with the tax allocation agreement, the Company is obligated
to reimburse Holdings for the use of Holdings' losses only to the extent
that Holdings has taxable income on a stand-alone basis. A liability has
not been established to the extent of the use of Holdings' losses since the
possibility of the ultimate payment for these benefits is considered
remote. Accordingly, the use of Holdings' losses has been accounted for as
a contribution of capital.
Also, in accordance with the tax allocation agreement, the Company is
required to reimburse Holdings for its allocable share of Holdings' tax
liability. The Company's share of Holdings' federal tax liability, for
alternative minimum tax, aggregated $1.5 million in 1994 and $0.3 million
in 1993.

7. Income Taxes (continued)
On a consolidated basis, the Company and Holdings have net operating loss
carryforwards at December 31, 1994 of approximately $75.0 million which are
available to offset future consolidated taxable income of the group and
expire from 2001 through 2008. The Company and Holdings, on a consolidated
basis at December 31, 1994, have $3.4 million of alternative minimum tax
credits which are available indefinitely to reduce future tax payments for
regular federal income tax purposes.
At December 31, 1994 the Company, if reporting on a separate company basis,
would have had net operating loss carryforwards for federal tax purposes of
approximately $9.0 million, which are subject to limitation under the
consolidated return regulations, and expire from 2001 to 2007.
8. Stock Option Plans
Containers and Plastics have established stock option plans for their key
employees pursuant to which options to purchase shares of common stock of
Holdings' and its subsidiaries and stock appreciation rights ("SARs") may
be granted.
Options granted under the plans may be either incentive stock options or
non qualified stock options. To date, all stock options granted have been
non qualified stock options. Under the plans, Containers and Plastics have
each reserved 1,200 shares of their common stock for issuance under their
respective plans. Containers has 13,764 shares and Plastics has 13,800
shares of $0.01 par value common stock currently issued, and all such
shares are owned by Silgan.
The SARs extend to all of the shares covered by the options and provide for
the payment to the holders of the options of an amount in cash equal to the
excess of, in the case of Containers' plan, the pro forma book value, as
defined, of a share of common stock (or in the event of a public offering
or a change in control (as defined), the fair market value of a share of
common stock) over the exercise price of the option, with certain
adjustments for the portion of vested stock appreciation rights not paid at
the time of the recapitalization in June, 1989; or, in the case of the
Plastics plan, in the event of a public offering or a change in control (as
defined), the fair market value of a share of common stock over the
exercise price of the option.

8. Stock Option Plans (continued)
Prior to a public offering or change in control, should an employee leave
the Company, Containers has the right to repurchase, and the employee has
the right to require Containers to repurchase, his common stock at the then
pro forma book value.
At December 31, 1994, there were outstanding options for 1,056 shares under
the Containers' plan and 900 shares under the Plastics' plan. The exercise
prices per share range from $2,122 to $4,933 for the Containers' options
and are $126 for the Plastics' options. The stock options and SARs
generally become exercisable ratably over a five year period. There were
720 options/SARs exercisable at December 31, 1994 under the Containers'
plan. At December 31, 1994, no options/SARs were exercisable under the
Plastics' plan. The Company incurred charges relating to the vesting and
payment of benefits under the stock option plans of $1.5 million in 1994;
$0.2 million in 1993; and $0.4 million in 1992.
In the event of a public offering of any of Holdings' capital stock or a
change in control of Holdings, (i) the options granted by Containers and
Plastics pursuant to the plans, or (ii) any stock issued upon exercise of
such options issued by Containers are convertible into either stock options
or common stock of Holdings, as the case may be. The conversion of such
options or shares will be based upon a valuation of Holdings and an
allocation of such value among the subsidiaries after giving affect to,
among other things, that portion of the outstanding indebtedness of
Holdings allocable to each such subsidiary.
9. Stockholder's Equity
Stockholder's equity includes the following classes of common stock ($.01
par value) and preferred stock:

9. Stockholder's Equity (continued)
In conjunction with the acquisition of DM Can in 1993, Holdings contributed
$15.0 million to the Company.
As of August 16, 1992, the Company redeemed its Preferred Stock. Until
such redemption, the Preferred Stock holders received cumulative
preferential dividends at the rate per annum of 15% per share calculated as
a percentage of $100. Dividends were, at the option of the Company, paid
in additional shares of Preferred Stock. During 1992, the Company issued
21,301 shares of Preferred Stock at $100 per share, representing its
Preferred Stock dividend requirement for the two quarters ended May 15,
1992. A cash dividend payment of $1.1 million was made for the quarter
ended August 15, 1992.
10. Commitments
The Company is committed under certain noncancelable operating leases for
office and plant facilities, equipment and automobiles. Certain operating
leases have renewal options. Minimum future rental payments under these

11. Related Party Transactions
Pursuant to various management services agreements entered into between
Holdings, Silgan, Containers, Plastics, and S&H, Inc. ("S&H"), a company
wholly owned by Messrs. Silver and Horrigan, the Chairman of the Board and
President of Holdings and Silgan, respectively, S&H provides Holdings and
the Company and its subsidiaries with general management, supervision and
administrative services. In consideration for its services, S&H receives a
fee of 4.95% (of which 0.45% is payable to MS & Co.) of Holdings'
consolidated earnings before depreciation, amortization, interest and taxes
("EBDIT") until EBDIT has reached the Scheduled Amount set forth in the
Management Agreements and 3.3% (of which 0.3% is payable to MS & Co.) after
EBDIT has exceeded the Scheduled Amount up to the Maximum Amount as set
forth in the Management Agreements, plus reimbursement for all related out-
of-pocket expenses. The total amount incurred under the Management
Agreements was $5.0 million in 1994, $4.4 million in 1993, and $4.2 million
in 1992 and was allocated, based upon EBDIT, as a charge to operating
income of each business segment. Included in accounts payable at December
31, 1994 and 1993, was $0.1 million and $0.6 million, payable to S&H,
respectively.
Under the terms of the Management Agreements, the Company has agreed,
subject to certain exceptions, to indemnify S&H and any of its affiliates,
officers, directors, employees, subcontractors, consultants or controlling
persons against any loss or damage they may sustain arising in connection
with the Management Agreements.
In connection with the Credit Agreement entered into in 1993, the Banks
(including Bankers Trust) received certain fees amounting to $8.1 million.
In connection with the 1992 Refinancing, MS & Co. received as compensation
for its services as underwriter for the Secured Notes, the 11 3/4% Notes
and the Discount Debentures an aggregate of $11.5 million.

12. Litigation
On June 30, 1989, Holdings acquired all of the outstanding shares of Silgan
for $6.50 per share (the "Merger"). Contemporaneous with the Merger,
certain holders of 1,050,000 shares of Silgan Class B common stock filed
two actions in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware ("Chancery
Court") alleging that Silgan and certain affiliates, officers and directors
breached fiduciary duties in implementing the Merger. One of the actions
was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice of the right to reinstate the
action upon the conclusion of the appraisal proceeding described below.
The second action was dismissed following settlement.
The same Silgan stockholders also sought appraisal of the value of their
shares pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Following discovery and settlement with the holders of 650,000 shares for
$6.9 million, including interest, trial of the appraisal with respect to
the remaining 400,000 shares of Class B common stock was conducted during
the week of November 28, 1994. Post-trial briefing is scheduled to be
completed on April 17, 1995.
Management believes that the consideration offered in the Merger fully
reflected the value of Silgan's Class B common stock and that the ultimate
resolution of the appraisal proceeding will not have a material effect on
the financial condition or results of operations of the Company or
Holdings.
Additionally, a complaint was filed by parties who are limited partners of
The Morgan Stanley Leveraged Equity Fund, L.P. ("MSLEF") against a number
of defendants including Silgan and Holdings. The complaint alleges, among
other things, that the general partners of MSLEF breached duties owed to
the limited partners by selling MSLEF's investment in Silgan at a grossly
inadequate price. The Court dismissed all claims against Silgan and
Holdings related to this action on January 14, 1993, and subsequently
upheld that dismissal after the plaintiff filed a motion for reargument.
Because this complaint continues against certain other defendants, the
plaintiff's right to appeal the dismissal of the claims against Silgan and
Holdings has not yet expired.
Management believes that there is no factual basis for the allegations and
claims contained in the complaint. Management also believes that the
lawsuit is without merit and they intend to defend the lawsuit vigorously.
In addition, management believes that the ultimate resolution of these
matters will not have a material effect on the financial condition or
results of operations of Silgan or Holdings.
