<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This Conflict Minerals Report (CMR) of Crown Holdings, Inc. (&#147;Crown&#148; or the &#147;Company&#148;) for calendar year 2016 was prepared in accordance
with Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">13p-1</FONT> under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Numerous terms in this Conflict Minerals Report are defined in Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">13p-1</FONT> and the reader is referred to that
source and to 1934 Act Release <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">No.&nbsp;34-67716</FONT> (August 22, 2012) for such definitions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Business Overview
</I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Crown, through its subsidiaries, is a leading supplier of packaging products to consumer marketing companies around the world. The Company determined
that tin was contained in the tinplate steel it purchases for its metal packaging businesses. Additionally, the Company determined that tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold are contained in certain purchased components of the high-performance can-making
machinery manufactured by the Company. The vast majority of suppliers that supply the Company with products that contain tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold supply our can-making machinery business, which amounts to less than 2% of Crown&#146;s overall
net sales. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Crown&#146;s supply chain is complex, and it is typically several tiers removed from the smelter or refiner and mineral origin. Crown relies
on its suppliers to provide information on the origin of the tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold necessary to the functionality or production of Crown&#146;s products. Crown has limited visibility beyond its direct suppliers to entities within the
supply chain. Therefore, Crown relies principally on its direct suppliers to provide it with sourcing information. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Due Diligence Design Overview
</I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Crown&#146;s due diligence processes have been designed in conformance with the due diligence related steps of the framework in The Organisation for
Economic <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Co-operation</FONT> and Development (&#147;OECD&#148;) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, Third Edition, and the related Supplements
for tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold, consistent with the Company&#146;s position as a downstream company. Crown also relied on information from the Conflict-Free Smelter Program (&#147;CFSP&#148;), a voluntary initiative managed by the
Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (&#147;CFSI&#148;) in which an independent third party audits the procurement activities of a smelter or refiner to determine, with reasonable confidence, that the minerals it processes originated from conflict-free
sources. Upon completion of a successful audit, the smelter or refiner is designated by the CFSI as &#147;Compliant.&#148; To guide its due diligence, the Company has established a due diligence compliance process that includes a documentation and
record maintenance mechanism to ensure the retention of relevant documentation in a structured electronic database. Crown expects to continue to refine, revise and improve this compliance process as appropriate. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company&#146;s due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the Conflict Minerals contained in the Covered Products included the following
measures: </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>OECD Step 1 &#150; Establish Strong Company Management Systems </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Policy</I>. Crown is in the process of adopting a company-wide Supplier Code of Conduct that will include Crown&#146;s commitment to responsible sourcing of
the Conflict Minerals in its products and its expectations that its suppliers will be similarly committed to responsible sourcing in the supply chain. Crown will communicate this to its first-tier suppliers and require them to acknowledge the
Supplier Code of Conduct. In addition, in Crown&#146;s purchase contracts for tinplate and in its standard form purchase orders, Crown currently requires that its suppliers comply with the Conflict Minerals rules. </P>

<HR  SIZE="3" style="COLOR:#999999" WIDTH="100%" ALIGN="CENTER">

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Personnel.</I> The Company&#146;s Conflict Minerals compliance effort involved a cross-functional group of
personnel from the legal, finance, operations, and corporate compliance functions. This team is responsible for implementing Crown&#146;s conflict minerals compliance strategy. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Supplier Engagement</I>. The Company contacted all of its first-tier suppliers of tinplate steel for its metal packaging business and almost all first-tier
suppliers for its can-making machinery business, to provide them with notice of the relevant Securities and Exchange Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;) requirements and advise them of the Company&#146;s commitment to responsibly source materials and its
due diligence expectations. In addition, the Company plans to include the company policy regarding Conflict Minerals as part of its Supplier Code of Conduct. The Company intends to archive the received supplier responses as part of its reasonable
country of origin inquiry (&#147;RCOI&#148;) and due diligence. Feedback from this process will be used to modify, where appropriate, the design of the Company&#146;s Conflict Minerals compliance program. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Grievance Mechanism</I>. The Company&#146;s existing procedures for reporting code of conduct or other ethics violations are also available for reporting
Conflict Minerals compliance problems. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>OECD Step 2 &#150; Identify and Assess Risk in the Supply Chain </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Identification of Risk</I>. To identify risks in its supply chain, the Company contacted all of the first-tier tinplate steel suppliers for its metal
packaging business and almost all first-tier suppliers for its can-making machinery business identified through its RCOI to request information regarding the source and chain of custody of Conflict Minerals in its supply chain. To facilitate the
collection of complete, accurate, standardized and verifiable information, the Company relied primarily on the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the &#147;CMRT&#148;) made available by the CFSI. The CMRT facilitates the transfer of information
through the supply chain regarding country of origin, mine location and smelters and refiners used. Written instructions and recorded training illustrating the use of the CMRT are available on CFSI&#146;s website. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Assessment of Risk. </I>Upon receipt of completed CMRTs from its suppliers, the Company intends to take steps to assess due diligence efforts of any
identified smelter or refiner by examining the information provided in the CMRT to determine if the smelter or refiner has been validated under the CFSI&#146;s CFSP as &#147;conflict free.&#148; The CFSP provides information regarding those smelters
or refiners that, following an independent third-party audit, have been found to be compliant with the CFSP&#146;s assessment protocols to assure sourcing of only conflict-free materials. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>OECD Step 3 &#150;&nbsp;Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company expects to take the following steps, among others, to improve its due diligence measures, increase supply chain transparency and further mitigate
the risk that the Conflict Minerals contained in its products may finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries: </P> <P STYLE="font-size:6pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

refiners supply tin to Crown&#146;s tinplate steel suppliers for Crown&#146;s metal packaging products. Tin is the only Conflict Mineral identified in the Company&#146;s metal packaging business. These products account for over 98% of Crown&#146;s
net sales. All of the tin smelters have been identified by the CFSI as compliant or were cleared by the Company&#146;s own due diligence investigation. </P>

thirteen (313)&nbsp;smelters and refiners on the Crown CMRT for its can-making machinery business products, which account for less than 2% of net sales. Two hundred forty-three (243)&nbsp;of those smelters and refiners have been evaluated by the
CFSI as compliant with the CFSI assessment protocol when analyzed. Based on the information provided by the Company&#146;s suppliers, it cannot be verified that all the smelters identified contributed to parts that ended up in Crown products. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Schedule 1 lists the country of origin of the tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold processed by smelters verified by the CFSI and identified by the Crown supply
chain. All smelters and refiners who source from the DRC region that have been audited by CFSI are compliant with the CFSI assessment protocol. All tin smelters that provided tin to the Company&#146;s tinplate steel suppliers, and therefore to the
Company, were specifically identified by the Company&#146;s tinplate suppliers. Because of the long supply chain from most smelters to the component suppliers to the Company&#146;s can-making machinery business, information provided to the Company
by its component suppliers did not enable the Company to verify that any of the tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold processed by smelters in any of the countries identified in Schedule 1 contributed to the specific parts that ended up in Crown
can-making machinery products. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Due Diligence Improvements </I></P>
