Bank One Trust Company, N.A.
One N. State Street, 9th Floor
Chicago, Illinois 60602

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         United States Can Company, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
proposes to make an offer (the "Exchange Offer") to exchange up to $175,000,000
aggregate principal amount of its 12 3/8% Series B Senior Subordinated Notes due
2010 (the "Exchange Notes"), which have been registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), for a like principal amount of its
outstanding 12 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2010 (the "Notes"), of which
$175,000,000 aggregate principal amount is outstanding. The terms and conditions
of the Exchange Offer as currently contemplated are set forth in a prospectus,
dated ________, 2001 (the "Prospectus"), a copy of which is attached to this
Agreement as Attachment A and is a part of this Agreement, proposed to be
distributed to all record holders of the Notes. Capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning assigned to them in the
Prospectus.

         The Company hereby appoints Bank One Trust Company, N.A. to act as
exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent") in connection with the Exchange Offer.
References hereinafter to "you" shall refer to Bank One Trust Company, N.A. Bank
One Trust Company, N.A. hereby accepts the appointment as Exchange Agent and
shall perform the duties and services of the Exchange Agent described herein on
the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement.

         The Exchange Offer is expected to be commenced by the Company on or
about ________, 2001 (the "Commencement Date"). The Letter of Transmittal
accompanying the Prospectus is to be used by the holders of the Notes to accept
the Exchange Offer and contains instructions with respect to the Exchange Offer.

         The Exchange Offer shall expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
________, 2001 or on such later date or time to which the Company may extend the
Exchange Offer (the "Expiration Date").

<PAGE>

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus, the Company
expressly reserves the right to extend the Exchange Offer from time to time and
may extend the Exchange Offer by giving oral (promptly confirmed in writing) or
written notice to you no later than 6:00 p.m., New York City time, on the next
business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date.

         The Company expressly reserves the right to amend or terminate the
Exchange Offer and not to accept for exchange any Notes not theretofore accepted
for exchange, upon the occurrence of any of the conditions of the Exchange Offer
specified in the Prospectus under the caption "The Exchange Offer--Conditions of
the Exchange Offer." The Company will give oral (promptly confirmed in writing)
or written notice of any amendment, termination or nonacceptance to you as
promptly as practicable.

         In carrying out your duties as Exchange Agent, you are to act in
accordance with the following instructions:

         1. You will perform such duties and only such duties as are set forth
herein, and such duties that are necessarily incidental thereto in good faith,
and no additional duties or responsibilities shall be implied against you.

         2. You will establish an account with respect to the Notes at The
Depository Trust Company (the "Book-Entry Transfer Facility") for purposes of
the Exchange Offer as soon as practicable after the Commencement Date.

         3. You are to examine each of the Letters of Transmittal, certificates
for the Notes and confirmations of book-entry transfers into your account at the
Book-Entry Transfer Facility and any Agent's Message or other documents received
by you by or for holders of the Notes to ascertain whether: (i) the Letters of
Transmittal and any such other documents are duly executed and properly
completed in accordance with instructions set forth therein and (ii) the Notes
have otherwise been properly tendered. In each case where the Letter of
Transmittal or any other document has been improperly completed or executed or
any of the certificates for Notes are not in proper form for transfer or some
other irregularity in connection with the acceptance of the Exchange Offer
exists, you will endeavor to inform the exchanging holder or the Book-Entry
Transfer Facility of the existence of the irregularity and the need for
fulfillment of all requirements and to take any other action as may be
reasonably necessary or advisable to cause such irregularity to be corrected.
You are not authorized to accept any tender of Notes that you reasonably deem to
be defective, unless you shall have received written notice from the Company as
provided in paragraph 4 hereof that any defect or irregularity in such tender
has been cured or waived and that such tender has been accepted by the Company.

         4. Upon your determination that any tender is defective, you shall
notify the Company and, after consultation with and on the written instructions
of the Company, use reasonable efforts to notify the person tendering such Notes
or the Book-Entry Transfer Facility, as the case may be, of such determination.
If necessary, you will return the certificates evidencing such Notes in the
manner described herein. The Company shall have the absolute right to (i) reject
any and all Notes not properly tendered, (ii) determine whether any tender of
Notes is valid and (iii) reject any Notes the Company's acceptance of which
would, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be unlawful; it being
understood that you shall have neither discretion nor responsibility with
respect to such matters. The Company also shall have the right in its sole
discretion to waive any defects, irregularities or conditions of tender as to
particular Notes. The interpretations by the Company of the terms and conditions
of the Exchange Offer, each submitted Letter of Transmittal, each submitted
Notice of Guaranteed Delivery and each other

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

document or instrument submitted to it in connection with the Exchange Offer
(including, without limitation, the determination of whether any tender of Notes
is valid) shall be final and binding. With the approval of either (a) the Chief
Executive Officer and President or (b) the Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer of the Company (such approval, if given orally, to be promptly
confirmed in writing), you are authorized to waive any irregularities in
connection with any tender of Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer.

         5. Tenders of Notes may be made only as set forth in the section of the
Prospectus captioned "The Exchange Offer--Procedures for Tendering" or in the
Letter of Transmittal, and Notes shall be considered properly tendered to you
only when tendered in accordance with the procedures set forth therein.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph 5, Notes that the Company or
any other party designated by the Company in writing shall approve as having
been properly tendered shall be considered to be properly tendered (such
approval, if given orally, shall be promptly confirmed in writing).

         6. You shall advise the Company with respect to any Notes delivered
subsequent to the Expiration Date and accept its instructions with respect to
the disposition of such Notes.

         7. You shall accept tenders:

               a. in cases where the Notes are registered in two or more names
only if signed by all named holders;

               b. in cases where the signing person (as indicated on the Letter
of Transmittal) is acting in a fiduciary or a representative capacity only when
proper evidence of his or her authority to so act is submitted; and

               c. from persons other than the registered holder of Notes
provided that customary transfer requirements, including any applicable transfer
taxes, are fulfilled.

         You shall accept partial tenders of Notes where so indicated and as
permitted in the Letter of Transmittal and deliver certificates for Notes to the
transfer agent for split-up and return any untendered Notes to the holder (or to
such other person as may be designated in the Letter of Transmittal) as promptly
as practicable after expiration or termination of the Exchange Offer.

         8. Upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the Exchange
Offer, the Company will notify you (such notice, if given orally, shall be
promptly confirmed in writing) of the Company's acceptance, promptly after the
Expiration Date, of all Notes properly tendered, and you, on behalf of the
Company, will exchange such Notes for Exchange Notes and cause such Notes to be
canceled. Delivery of Exchange Notes will be made on behalf of the Company by
you at the rate of $1,000 principal amount of Exchange Notes for each $1,000
principal amount of Notes tendered promptly after notice (such notice, if given
orally, shall be promptly confirmed in writing) of acceptance of said Notes by
the Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in all cases, Notes tendered pursuant to
the Exchange Offer will be exchanged only after timely receipt by you of
certificates for such Notes (or confirmation of book-entry transfer into your
account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility), a properly completed and duly
executed Letter of Transmittal (or facsimile thereof) with any required
signature guarantees (or Agent's Message in lieu thereof) and any other required
document. You shall issue Exchange Notes only in denominations of $1,000 or any
integral multiple thereof.

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

         9. Tenders pursuant to the Exchange Offer are irrevocable, except that,
subject to the terms and upon the conditions set forth in the Prospectus and the
Letter of Transmittal, Notes tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be
withdrawn at any time on or prior to the Expiration Date.

         10. The Company shall not be required to exchange any Notes tendered if
any of the conditions set forth in the Exchange Offer are not met. Notice of any
decision by the Company not to exchange any Notes tendered shall be given (such
notice, if given orally, shall be promptly confirmed in writing) by the Company
to you.

         11. If, pursuant to the Exchange Offer, the Company does not accept for
exchange all or part of the Notes tendered because of an invalid tender, the
occurrence of certain other events set forth in the Prospectus under the caption
"The Exchange Offer--Conditions of the Exchange Offer" or otherwise, you shall
as soon as practicable after the expiration or termination of the Exchange Offer
return those certificates for unaccepted Notes (or effect the appropriate
book-entry transfer of the unaccepted Notes), and return any related required
documents and the Letters of Transmittal relating thereto that are in your
possession, to the persons who deposited them.

         12. All certificates for reissued Notes or for unaccepted Notes shall
be forwarded by (a) first-class mail, return receipt requested, under a blanket
surety bond protecting you and the Company from loss or liability arising out of
the non-receipt or non-delivery of such certificates or (b) by registered mail
insured separately for the replacement value of such certificates.

         13. You are not authorized to pay or offer to pay any concessions,
commissions or solicitation fees to any broker, dealer, bank or other persons or
to engage or utilize any person to solicit tenders.

         14. As Exchange Agent hereunder you:

               a. will be regarded as making no representations and having no
responsibilities as to the validity, sufficiency, value or genuineness of Notes,
and will not be required to and will make no representation as to the validity,
value or genuineness of the Exchange Offer;

               b. shall not be obligated to take any legal action hereunder
which might in your good faith judgment involve any expense or liability, unless
you shall have been furnished with satisfactory indemnity;

               c. shall not be liable to the Company for any action taken or
omitted by you, or any action suffered by you to be taken or omitted, without
gross negligence, misconduct or bad faith on your part, by reason of or as a
result of the administration of your duties hereunder in accordance with the
terms and conditions of this Agreement or by reason of your compliance with the
instructions set forth herein or with any written or oral instructions delivered
to you pursuant hereto, and may conclusively rely on and shall be fully
protected in acting in good faith in reliance upon any certificate, instrument,
opinion, notice, letter, facsimile or other document or security delivered to
you and reasonably believed by you to be genuine and to have been signed by the
proper party or parties;

               d. may reasonably act upon any tender, statement, request,
comment, agreement or other instrument whatsoever not only as to its due
execution and validity and the effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to
the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which you shall in
good faith reasonably believe to be genuine or to have been signed or
represented by a proper person or persons;

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

               e. may conclusively rely on and shall be fully protected in
acting upon written or oral instructions from any officer of the Company with
respect to the Exchange Offer;

               f. shall not advise any person tendering Notes pursuant to the
Exchange Offer as to the wisdom of making such tender or as to the market value
or decline or appreciation in market value of any Notes; and

               g. may consult with counsel, which may be counsel for the
Company, with respect to any questions relating to your duties and
responsibilities and the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and
complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered
or omitted by you hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or
opinion of such counsel.

         15. You shall take such action as may from time to time be requested by
the Company or its counsel (and such other action as you may reasonably deem
appropriate) to furnish copies of the Prospectus, Letter of Transmittal and the
Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, or such other forms as may be approved from time
to time by the Company, to all persons requesting such documents and to accept
