Explanatory Note
Sealed Air Corporation (“we” or “our”) is filing this amendment to its Current Report on Form
8-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 24, 2011, to refurnish the
press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 in order to correct typographical errors in the last
sentence of the section entitled “Protective Packaging Segment” on page 2 of the press release.
As amended, this sentence has been corrected to read “Adjusting for the costs of the closure,
operating profit would have been $41 million, or 12.0% of net sales”, and not the originally
reported “Adjusting for the costs of the closure, operating profit would have been $45 million, or
13.0% of net sales.” All other information included in the original filing is unchanged.
