A competition authority in Germany commenced an antitrust investigation involving the industry association for metal packaging in Germany and its members, including our metal container and closures subsidiaries in Germany. Given the early stage of the investigation, we cannot reasonably assess what actions may result from the investigation or estimate what costs we may incur as a result of the investigation. We are a party to other legal proceedings, contract disputes and claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not a party to, and none of our properties are subject to, any pending legal proceedings which could have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition.
