Item 1.01.
Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously announced, on
            November 22, 2022, Berry Global Group, Inc. ("
Berry
" or the "
Company
") entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the "
Original Cooperation Agreement
") with Ancora Catalyst Institutional, LP and
            certain of its affiliates and
Eminence Capital, L.P.
(collectively the "
Investor
              Group
") regarding the membership and composition of the Company's board of directors (the "
Board
") and related matters. On October 18, 2023, the Company and the Investor Group entered into an Amended and Restated Cooperation Agreement (the "
A&R Cooperation Agreement
").
Pursuant to the A&R
            Cooperation Agreement, the Company has agreed to include, current directors,
Chaney Sheffield and Peter Thomas (the "
Directors
")
in its slate of twelve (12) nominees for election as directors of the Company at the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the "
2024 Annual Meeting
").
The Board will take such actions
            as are necessary to maintain Mr. Sheffield as a member of the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Capital Allocation Advisory Committee (the "Advisory Committee") and
Mr. Thomas
as a member of the Compensation & Talent Development Committee and the Advisory Committee.
Pursuant to the A&R Cooperation Agreement, the Company and the Investor Group have agreed to continue
          abiding by certain voting commitments, including a commitment to vote in accordance with the recommendation of the Board with respect to director elections, and standstill obligations on the part of the Investor Group and mutual non-disparagement
          provisions until the earlier of (i) 30 days prior to the notice deadline for the submission of stockholder nominations for the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company and (ii) 110 days prior to the first anniversary of the 2024 Annual
          Meeting (the "
Standstill Period
"). The A&R Cooperation Agreement will terminate upon the expiration of the last day of the Standstill Period, unless
          earlier terminated by mutual written agreement of the Company and the Investor Group.
Consistent with the Original Cooperation Agreement, if, during the Standstill Period, Mr. Sheffield resigns
          from the Board or is unable (due to death or disability) or refuses to serve on the Board for any reason, so long as the Investor Group at that time and at all times since the date of the Original Cooperation Agreement beneficially owns in the
          aggregate at least 1.5% of the Company's then-outstanding Common Stock (the "
Company Ownership Level Minimum
"), then the Investor Group shall identify
          three potential replacement directors, one of whom will be appointed to the Board after completion of director information and interviews and subject to reasonable approval by the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Board, on the terms
          set forth in the A&R Cooperation Agreement. If, during the Standstill Period, Mr. Thomas resigns from the Board or is unable (due to death or disability) or refuses to serve on the Board for any reason, so long as the Investor Group at that
          time and at all times since the date of the Original Cooperation Agreement beneficially owns in the aggregate at least the Company Ownership Level Minimum, then the Investor Group shall identify a replacement director, subject to reasonable
          approval by the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Board, on the terms set forth in the A&R Cooperation Agreement.
The foregoing description of the A&R Cooperation Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified
          in its entirety by reference to the full text of the A&R Cooperation Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K Report and incorporated herein by reference.
