Ardagh continues to engage in constructive discussions with the SUN Group and SSN Group of noteholders regarding the terms of a potential transaction to put in place a sustainable capital structure.

The update sets out the latest proposal received from the SSN Group and the Group's counterproposal to the SSN Group during these discussions.

No proposals have been agreed at this time, and the Group's capital structure review is ongoing.

Following the March Update, certain holders of the Group's 4.750% Senior Notes due 2027 issued proceedings against certain members of the Group. Ardagh strongly believes that the complaint is without merit and intends to vigorously defend against the proceedings.

The Company will provide further updates in due course.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.

Before investing, consider the funds' investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. Contact Fidelity for a prospectus or, if available, a summary prospectus containing this information. Read it carefully.
