Triton to sell Blitz LuxCo Sarl, the holding company of the Bormioli Pharma
Group

Luxembourg, 23 May 2024 - Funds advised by Triton ("Triton"), alongside
co-investors, have signed an agreement to sell Blitz LuxCo Sarl, the holding
company of Bormioli Pharma Group ("Bormioli" or "the company"), a leading
producer of pharmaceutical packaging, to Gerresheimer, an innovative systems
and solutions provider and global partner for the pharma, biotech, and
cosmetics industries. The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and
expected to close in the fourth quarter this year.

Bormioli was acquired by Triton in 2017 via a corporate carveout, having
been identified as a future winner benefitting from increasing demand for
sustainable packaging while providing drug stability and patient safety. The
company has since been transformed into an important player in pharma
packaging, present in over 100 countries, has approx. 1,500 employees with
sales of over EUR 370 million.

Triton helped Bormioli to reach its potential by bolstering its management
team; reshaping its organisational and operational structure; expanding and
upgrading the company's manufacturing base with state-of-the-art technology;
establishing one of the first pharma packaging solutions based upon recycled
materials; and integrating four strategic acquisitions that bolstered its
product portfolio and geographical presence.

Moritz Gudenus, Investment Advisory Professional at Triton, said: "We would
like to sincerely thank Bormioli's entire team for their hard work and
commitment in unlocking the company's potential. Our investment in Bormioli
is another example of Triton's approach of backing future winners in our
core sectors and applying our operational approach to helping them reach
their full potential. We believe that Gerresheimer is a great strategic fit
to continue Bormioli's success story."

Andrea Lodetti, CEO of Bormioli Pharma Group, adds: "With the support of
Triton, we were able to build out our positions across pharma packaging,
with one-stop-shop capabilities in terms of technology as well as product
offering. We thank the Triton team for their support and look forward to our
next chapter of growth with Gerresheimer."

BNP Paribas and Goldman Sachs International acted as M&A financial advisors.
