(Unaudited)
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 GENERAL INFORMATION
Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation
Graphic Packaging Holding Company (GPHC and, together with its subsidiaries, the Company) is a
leading provider of packaging solutions for a wide variety of products to food, beverage and other
consumer products companies. The Company is the largest U.S. producer of folding cartons and holds
a leading market position in coated unbleached kraft paperboard, coated-recycled boxboard and
multi-wall bags. The Companys customers include some of the most widely recognized companies in
the world. The Company strives to provide its customers with packaging solutions designed to
deliver marketing and performance benefits at a competitive cost by capitalizing on its low-cost
paperboard mills and converting plants, its proprietary carton and packaging designs, and its
commitment to customer service.
GPHC and Graphic Packaging Corporation (GPC) conduct no significant business and have no
independent assets or operations other than GPHCs ownership of all of GPCs outstanding common
stock, and GPCs ownership of all of Graphic Packaging International, Inc.s (GPII) outstanding
common stock.
The Companys Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all subsidiaries in which the
Company has the ability to exercise direct or indirect control over operating and financial
policies. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
In the Companys opinion, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all
normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The Companys year end Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements. The accompanying unaudited
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions to
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and do not include all the information required by
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for complete
financial statements. Therefore, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read
in conjunction with GPHCs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. In
addition, the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with
U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates and changes in these
statements are recorded as known.
The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior period information to conform to the
current presentation format. This includes the reclassification of certain amounts within Selling,
General and Administrative to Restructuring and Other Special Charges (Credits). These
reclassifications had no impact on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets or Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and had an immaterial impact on certain captions on the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
For a summary of the Companys significant accounting policies, please refer to GPHCs Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Alternative Fuel Tax Credit
The Company burns alternative fuel at its West Monroe, LA and Macon, GA mills in order to produce
energy and recover chemicals. During 2009, the U.S. Internal Revenue Code allowed an excise tax
credit under certain circumstances for the use of alternative fuels and alternative fuel mixtures.
In the first quarter of 2009, the Company filed an application with the Internal Revenue Service
(the IRS) for certification of eligibility to receive the tax credit for its use of black liquor
in alternative fuel mixtures in the recovery boilers at the mills. During the second quarter of
2009, the Company received notification from the IRS that its registration as an alternate fuel
mixer had been approved. As of June 30, 2009, the Company had submitted refund claims based on
fuel usage at the two mills from mid-January 2009 through June 30, 2009 totaling $61.9 million and
had received refunds totaling $51.6 million. The net impact of the tax credit is included in
Restructuring and Other Special Charges (Credits) in the amount of $61.9 million for the
7
Table of Contents
three and six months ended June 30, 2009, and is included in Corporate for segment reporting
purposes. The excise tax credit expired on December 31, 2009.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
Effective in the first quarter of 2010, the Company adopted guidance as required by the Subsequent
Events topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards
CodificationTM (the FASB Codification). The new guidance asserts that an entity that
is a United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer is not required to disclose the
date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential
conflicts between the Subsequent Events topic and the SECs requirements. The guidance removes a
disclosure only and will have no impact on the Companys financial position, results of operations
or cash flows.
Effective January 1, 2010, the Company adopted guidance as required by the Consolidation topic of
the FASB Codification which clarifies the accounting and reporting for decreases in ownership of a
subsidiary. The adoption did not have an impact on the Companys financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
Effective January 1, 2010, the Company adopted guidance contained within the Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures topic of the FASB Codification to improve the disclosure requirements
related to Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. The guidance requires entities to disclose
separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value
measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers. In addition, entities are required to
present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements for fair value
measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The disclosures related to Level 3
fair value measurements are effective for the Company in 2011. The guidance requires new
disclosures only and did not have an impact on the Companys financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

NOTE 3 RESTRUCTURING RESERVES
Over the last two years, the Company formulated plans to close or exit certain production
facilities resulting from the combination in March 2008 of the businesses of GPC and Altivity
Packaging, LLC (Altivity). Restructuring reserves were established in accordance with the
requirements of Emerging Issues Task Force 95-3, Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a
Purchase Business Combination, and the Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations topic of the FASB
Codification.
The amount of termination benefits recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled
$1.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The amount of termination benefits recorded in the
three and six months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $1.4 million and $3.3 million, respectively.
These termination benefits are included in Restructuring and Other Special Charges (Credits) in the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The restructuring reserves are included in Other
Accrued Liabilities on the Companys Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the second quarter, the Company finalized its restructuring activities. The Company
concluded that certain facilities were no longer an essential part of its manufacturing and warehouse footprint
and that the facilities would be disposed. Accordingly the facilities are reported at the lower of
their carrying value or fair market value less costs to sell and reclassified as assets held for
sale and are included in other current assets. In addition, estimated liabilities related to the
partial or complete withdrawal from certain multi-employment benefit plans for union employees at
certain of these facilities were established. Charges of $21.9 million for estimated multiemployer
pension plan withdrawal liabilities and $7.8 million related to assets written down to fair market
value less costs to sell were recorded, and are included in Restructuring and Other Special Charges
(Credits) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the quarter ended June 30,
2010.
NOTE 4 DEBT
Credit Agreement
On May 16, 2007, the Company entered into a $1,355 million Credit Agreement (Credit Agreement).
The Credit Agreement provided for a $300 million revolving credit facility due on May 16, 2013 and
a $1,055 million term loan facility due on May 16, 2014. The revolving credit facility bears
interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 225 basis points and the term loan facility bears interest at a
rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points. The Companys obligations under the Credit Agreement are
collateralized by substantially all of the Companys domestic assets.
On March 10, 2008, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2 to the Credit
Agreement. Under such amendments, the Company obtained (i) a new $1,200 million term loan facility,
due on May 16, 2014, to refinance the outstanding amounts under Altivitys parent companys
existing first and second lien credit facilities and (ii) an increase to the Companys existing
revolving credit facility to $400 million due on May 16, 2013. The Companys existing $1,055
million term loan facility remains in place. The new term loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 275
basis points. The Companys weighted average interest rate on senior secured term debt equals
approximately LIBOR plus 241 basis points.
On December 3, 2009, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Credit Agreement. In
satisfaction of a condition precedent to the effectiveness of Amendment No. 3, the Company made a
$150.0 million voluntary prepayment of the outstanding term loans under the Credit Agreement (the
Initial Term Loan Prepayment). Amendment No. 3 increases the basket under which the Company may
voluntarily redeem or repurchase prior to maturity its 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 from
time to time outstanding by an amount equal to $37.5 million plus 75.0% of the aggregate principal
amount of prepayments of the term loans under the Companys Credit Agreement made after the
effective date of Amendment No. 3 (excluding the Initial Term Loan Prepayment). As a condition
precedent to any future redemption or repurchase of the notes prior to their maturity, Amendment
No. 3 requires that the Company have available liquidity (defined as cash and cash equivalents on
hand plus availability under the Companys senior secured revolver) of at least $250.0 million. In
connection with Amendment No. 3, the Company recorded deferred financing costs of approximately $1
million. These costs are being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the
facilities.

Senior and Senior Subordinated Notes
On June 16, 2009, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $245 million aggregate principal
amount of its 9.5% Senior Notes due in 2017. The proceeds from the offering were $238.4 million
after deducting the original issue discount. The proceeds were used to retire, through a tender
offer, $225 million aggregate principal amount of the 8.5% Senior Notes due in 2011 and to pay
applicable early tender premiums and offering expenses.
On August 5, 2009, the Company announced that it would redeem and prepay approximately $20 million
in aggregate principal and interest of the 8.5% Senior Notes due in 2011. The Credit Agreement
contains, among other exceptions to the restrictions on prepayment of the Senior Notes, a $20
million basket for such redemptions. The redemption occurred on September 4, 2009 (the Redemption
Date), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed, plus
accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including the Redemption Date. In total, $19.9 million
aggregate principal amount of the 8.5% Senior Notes due in 2011 was redeemed on September 4, 2009.
On August 20, 2009, the Company completed the issuance and sale of an additional $180 million of
9.5% Senior Notes due in 2017. The proceeds from the offering were $185.4 million, including a
premium of $5.4 million. These proceeds were used to redeem the remaining $180.1 million aggregate
principal amount of the 8.5% Senior Notes due in 2011, to pay accrued interest on these existing
notes, and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the offering and redemption. In
connection with the 9.5% Senior Notes due in 2017, the Company recorded deferred financing costs of
approximately $10 million. These costs are being amortized using the effective interest method over
the term of the 9.5% Senior Notes due in 2017.
In connection with the above retirements, the Company recorded charges totaling $7.1 million in
2009, of which $6.1 million was related to the June 2009 retirement and is reflected as Loss on
Early Extinguishment of Debt in the Companys Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. The charges consisted of unamortized deferred
financing costs and, in regards to the June 2009 retirement, the early tender premiums associated
with the 8.5% Senior Notes due in 2011.
In June 2010 under Amendment No. 3 to the Credit Agreement, the Company redeemed and prepaid $34.9
million aggregate principal amount of its 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 at redemption
prices ranging from 101.75% to 101.833% of the principal amount of the notes redeemed, plus accrued
and unpaid interest up to, but not including the date of redemption.
In connection with the June 2010 retirement, the Company recorded a charge of $0.9 million which
consisted of the unamortized deferred financing costs and the excess of the redemption price over
the principal amount and is reflected as Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt.

Note:
(a) | In accordance with its debt agreements, the Companys availability under its Revolving Credit
Facility has been reduced by the amount of standby letters of credit issued of $34.8 million
as of June 30, 2010. These letters of credit are used primarily as security against its
self-insurance obligations and workers compensation obligations. These letters of credit
expire at various dates through 2011 unless extended. |
The Credit Agreement and the indentures governing the 9.5% Senior Notes due 2017 and the 9.5%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (the Indentures) limit the Companys ability to incur
additional indebtedness. Additional covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and the Indentures,
among other things, restrict the ability of the Company to dispose of assets, incur guarantee
obligations, prepay other indebtedness, make dividend and other restricted payments, create liens,
make equity or debt investments, make acquisitions, modify terms of the Indentures, engage in
mergers or consolidations, change the business conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries, and
engage in certain transactions with affiliates. Such restrictions, together with the highly
leveraged nature of the Company, could limit the Companys ability to respond to changing market
conditions, fund its capital spending program, provide for unexpected capital investments or take
advantage of business opportunities. As of June 30, 2010, the Company was in compliance with the
financial covenant in the Credit Agreement.
NOTE 5 STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS
The Company has five equity compensation plans, but since 2004 the Companys only plan pursuant to
which new grants are made is the Graphic Packaging Holding Company Amended and Restated 2004 Stock
and Incentive Compensation Plan (previously named the Graphic Packaging Corporation 2004 Stock and
Incentive Compensation Plan) (the 2004 Plan). Under the 2004 Plan, the Company may grant stock
options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units (RSUs) and other
types of stock-based and cash awards to employees and directors of the Company. Stock options and
other awards granted under all of the Companys plans generally vest and expire in accordance with
terms established at the time of grant. Shares issued pursuant to awards under the plans are from
the Companys authorized but unissued shares. Compensation costs are recognized on a straight-line
basis over the requisite service period of the award.
Stock Options
GPC and the Company have not granted any stock options since 2004. During the six months ended June
30, 2010, 4,000 stock options were exercised and 1,081,675 stock options were cancelled. The total
number of shares subject to options at June 30, 2010 was 5,356,417 at a weighted average exercise
price of $7.43.
Stock Awards, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
The Companys 2004 Plan permits the grant of stock awards, restricted stock and RSUs. All RSUs vest
and become payable in one to four years from date of grant. Upon vesting, RSUs are payable in cash
and shares of common stock, based on the proportion set forth in the grant agreements.

The value of the RSUs is based on the market value of the Companys common stock on the date of
grant. The RSUs payable in cash are subject to variable accounting and marked to market
accordingly. The RSUs payable in cash are recorded as liabilities, whereas the RSUs payable in
shares are recorded in Shareholders Equity.
The value of a stock award is based on the market value of the Companys common stock on the date
of grant. These awards are unrestricted on the date of grant.
During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, $4.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively,
were charged to compensation expense for stock incentive plans.
The unrecognized expense as of June 30, 2010 is approximately $23 million and is expected to be
recognized over a weighted average period of 2 years.
NOTE 6 PENSIONS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
The Company maintains both defined benefit pension plans and postretirement health care plans that
provide medical and life insurance coverage to eligible salaried and hourly retired employees in
North America and their dependents. The Company maintains international defined benefit pension
plans which are both noncontributory and contributory and are funded in accordance with applicable
local laws. Pension or termination benefits are based primarily on years of service and the
employees compensation.
Currently, the North American plans are closed to newly-hired salaried and non-union hourly
employees. The U.K. defined benefit plan was frozen effective March 31, 2001 and replaced with a
defined contribution plan.

Employer Contributions
The Company made contributions of $18.7 million and $13.9 million to its pension plans during the
first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company expects to make contributions of $45
million to $70 million for the full year 2010. During 2009, the Company made $43.6 million of
contributions to its pension plans.
The Company made postretirement health care benefit payments of $0.9 million and $1.3 million
during the first six months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company estimates its
postretirement health care benefit payments for the full year 2010 to be approximately $3 million.
During 2009, the Company made postretirement health care benefit payments of $2.9 million.
NOTE 7 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The Company enters into derivative instruments for risk management purposes only, including
derivatives designated as hedging instruments under the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the FASB
Codification and those not designated as hedging instruments under this guidance. The Company uses
interest rate swaps, natural gas swap contracts, and forward exchange contracts. These derivative
instruments are designated as cash flow hedges and, to the extent they are effective in offsetting
the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the derivatives fair value are not included
in current earnings but are included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. These changes in fair
value will subsequently be reclassified to earnings.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risks on future interest payments
caused by interest rate changes on its variable rate term loan facility. At June 30, 2010, the
Company had interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $1,460.0 million which expire
on various dates from 2010 to 2012 under which the Company will pay fixed rates of 2.24% to 3.84%
and receive the three-month LIBOR rates. At December 31, 2009, the Company had interest rate swap
agreements with a notional amount of $2,170.0 million, including $400.0 million in forward starting
interest rate swaps, which expire on various dates from 2010 to 2012 under which the Company will
pay fixed rates of 2.24% to 5.06% and receive the three-month LIBOR rates.
Changes in fair value will subsequently be reclassified into earnings as a component of Interest
Expense, Net as interest is incurred on amounts outstanding under the term loan facility.
Ineffectiveness measured in the hedging relationship is recorded in earnings in the period it
occurs.
During the first six months of 2010 and 2009, there were minimal amounts of ineffectiveness related
to changes in the fair value of interest rate swap agreements. Additionally, there were no amounts
excluded from the measure of effectiveness.
Commodity Risk
To manage risks associated with future variability in cash flows and price risk attributable to
certain commodity purchases, the Company enters into natural gas swap contracts to hedge prices for
a designated percentage of its expected natural gas usage. The Company has entered into natural gas
swap contracts to hedge prices for approximately 75% of its expected natural gas usage for the
remainder of 2010 with a weighted average contractual rate of $5.68 per one million British Thermal
Units (mmbtu). Additionally, the Company has hedged approximately 25% of its expected usage for
the first quarter of 2011 at a weighted average contractual price of $5.30 per mmbtu. When a
contract matures, the resulting gain or loss is reclassified into Cost of Sales concurrently with
the recognition of the commodity purchased. The ineffective portion of the swap contracts change
in fair value, if any, would be recognized immediately in earnings.
During the first six months of 2010 and 2009, there were minimal amounts of ineffectiveness related
to changes in the fair value of natural gas swap contracts. Additionally, there were no amounts
excluded from the measure of effectiveness.
13
Table of Contents
Foreign Currency Risk
The Company enters into forward exchange contracts to manage risks associated with future
variability in cash flows resulting from anticipated foreign currency transactions that may be
adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. Gains/losses related to these contracts are
recognized in Other Expense (Income), Net when the anticipated transaction affects income.
At June 30, 2010 and at December 31, 2009, multiple forward exchange contracts existed that expire
on various dates throughout 2010. Those purchased forward exchange contracts outstanding at June
30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, when aggregated and measured in U.S. dollars at contractual rates
at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, had notional amounts totaling $29.4 million
and $60.6 million.
No amounts were reclassified to earnings during the first six months of 2010 or during 2009 in
connection with forecasted transactions that were no longer considered probable of occurring, and
there was no amount of ineffectiveness related to changes in the fair value of foreign currency
forward contracts. Additionally, there were no amounts excluded from the measure of effectiveness.
Derivatives not Designated as Hedges
The Company enters into forward exchange contracts to effectively hedge substantially all of
accounts receivable resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies in order to
manage risks associated with foreign currency transactions adversely affected by changes in
exchange rates. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, multiple foreign currency forward exchange
contracts existed, with maturities ranging up to three months. Those foreign currency exchange
contracts outstanding at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, when aggregated and measured in U.S.
dollars at exchange rates at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, had net notional
amounts totaling $13.3 million and $10.1 million. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from these
contracts are recognized in Other Expense (Income), Net and approximately offset corresponding
recognized but unrealized gains and losses on these accounts receivable.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys derivative instruments are carried at fair value. The Company has determined that the
inputs to the valuation of these derivative instruments are level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Level 2 inputs are defined as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or
inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market
corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
As of June 30, 2010, there has not been any significant impact to the fair value of the Companys
derivative liabilities due to its own credit risk. Similarly, there has not been any significant
adverse impact to the Companys derivative assets based on evaluation of the Companys
counterparties credit risks.
The fair value of the Companys derivative instruments is as follows:

Table of Contents
The fair values of the Companys other financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2010 and
December 31, 2009 approximately equal the carrying values reported on the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheets except for Long-Term Debt. The fair value of the Companys Long-Term Debt was
$2,701.0 million and $2,762.6 million as compared to the carrying amounts of $2,758.6 million and
$2,792.6 million as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The fair value of
Long-Term Debt is based on Level 1 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Level 1 inputs are defined
as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

NOTE 9 ENVIRONMENTAL AND LEGAL MATTERS
Environmental Matters
The Company is subject to a broad range of foreign, federal, state and local environmental, health
and safety laws and regulations, including those governing discharges to air, soil and water, the
management, treatment and disposal of hazardous substances, solid waste and hazardous wastes, the
investigation and remediation of contamination resulting from historical site operations and
releases of hazardous substances, and the health and safety of employees. Compliance initiatives
could result in significant costs, which could negatively impact the Companys consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although the Company is not currently
aware of any required compliance initiatives that are expected to require material expenditures.
Any failure to comply with environmental or health and safety laws and regulations or any permits
and authorizations required thereunder could subject the Company to fines, corrective action or
other sanctions.
Some of the Companys current and former facilities are the subject of environmental investigations
and remediations resulting from historic operations and the release of hazardous substances or
other constituents. Some current and former facilities have a history of industrial usage for which
investigation and remediation obligations may be imposed in the future or for which indemnification
claims may be asserted against the Company. Also, potential future closures or sales of facilities
may necessitate further investigation and may result in future remediation at those facilities.
On October 8, 2007, the Company received a notice from the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (the EPA) indicating that it is a potentially responsible party for the remedial
investigation and feasibility study to be conducted at the Devils Swamp Lake site in East Baton
Rouge Parish, Louisiana. The Company believes it is a de minimis contributor to the site and
expects to enter into
16
Table of Contents
negotiations with the EPA and other potentially responsible parties regarding its potential
responsibility and liability, but it is too early in the investigation process to quantify possible
costs with respect to such site.
The Company has established reserves for those facilities or issues where liability is probable and
the costs are reasonably estimable. The Company believes that the amounts accrued for all of its
loss contingencies, and the reasonably possible loss beyond the amounts accrued, are not material
to the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company
cannot estimate with certainty other future corrective compliance, investigation or remediation
costs. Costs relating to historic usage that the Company considers to be reasonably possible are
not quantifiable at this time. The Company will continue to monitor environmental issues at each of
its facilities, as well as regulatory developments, and will revise its accruals, estimates and
disclosures relating to past, present and future operations, as additional information is obtained.
Legal Matters
The Company is a party to a number of lawsuits arising in the ordinary conduct of its business.
Although the timing and outcome of these lawsuits cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company
does not believe that disposition of these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the
Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 10 BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company reports its results in three business segments: paperboard packaging, multi-wall bag
and specialty packaging. These segments are evaluated by the chief operating decision maker based
primarily on Income from Operations. The Companys reportable segments are based upon strategic
business units that offer different products. The accounting policies of the reportable segments
are the same as those described in GPHCs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2009.
The paperboard packaging segment is highly integrated and includes a system of mills and plants
that produces a broad range of paperboard grades convertible into folding cartons. Folding cartons
are used primarily to protect products, such as food, detergents, paper products, beverages, and
health and beauty aids, while providing point of purchase advertising. The paperboard packaging
business segment includes the design, manufacture and installation of packaging machinery related
to the assembly of cartons and the production and sale of corrugated medium and kraft paper from
paperboard mills in the U.S.
The multi-wall bag business segment converts kraft and specialty paper into multi-wall bags,
consumer bags and specialty retail bags. The bags are designed to ship and protect a wide range of
industrial and consumer products including fertilizers, chemicals, concrete and pet and food
products.
The specialty packaging business segment primarily includes flexible packaging, label solutions and
laminations. This segment converts a wide variety of technologically advanced films for use in the
food, pharmaceutical and industrial end-markets. Flexible packaging paper and metallicized paper
labels and heat transfer labels are used in a wide range of consumer applications.

OVERVIEW OF BUSINESS
The Companys objective is to strengthen its position as a leading provider of packaging solutions.
To achieve this objective, the Company offers customers its paperboard, cartons and packaging
machines, either as an integrated solution or separately. Cartons and carriers are designed to
protect and contain products. Product offerings include a variety of laminated, coated and printed
packaging structures that are produced from the Companys coated unbleached kraft (CUK),
coated-recycled board (CRB) and uncoated-recycled board, as well as other grades of paperboard
that are purchased from third party suppliers. Innovative designs and combinations of paperboard,
films, foils, metallization, holographics and embossing are customized to the individual needs of
the customers.
The Company is also a leading supplier of multi-wall bags and in addition to a full range of
products, provides customers with value-added graphical and technical support, and packaging
workshops to help educate customers.
The Companys specialty packaging business has an established position in end-markets for food
products, pharmaceutical and medical products, personal care, industrial, pet food and pet care
products. In addition, the Companys label business focuses on two product lines: heat transfer
labels and lithographic labels.
The Company is implementing strategies (i) to expand market share in its current markets and to
identify and penetrate new markets; (ii) to capitalize on the Companys customer relationships,
business competencies, and low-cost mills and converting assets; (iii) to develop and market
innovative, sustainable products and applications; and (iv) to continue to reduce costs by focusing
on operational improvements. The Companys ability to fully implement its strategies and achieve
its objective may be influenced by a variety of factors, many of which are beyond its control, such
as inflation of raw material and other costs, which the Company cannot always pass through to its
customers, and the effect of overcapacity in the worldwide paperboard packaging industry.
Significant Factors That Impact The Companys Business
Impact of Inflation. The Companys cost of sales consists primarily of energy (including natural
gas, fuel oil and electricity), pine pulpwood, chemicals, recycled fibers, purchased paperboard,
paper, aluminum foil, ink, plastic films and resins, depreciation expense and labor. Although the
Company is currently experiencing inflation with certain input costs, its cost of goods sold during
the first six months of 2010 reflects the lower cost associated with the inventory on hand at
December 31, 2009. Inflation increased costs in the
26

first six months of 2010 by $23.5 million, compared to the first six months of 2009. The higher
costs in 2010 are primarily related to secondary fiber and wood ($28.6 million); resin and inks and
coatings ($17.6 million); freight ($3.7 million); and other costs ($5.0 million). These higher
costs were partially offset by lower energy costs ($20.6 million), mainly due to the price of
natural gas, chemicals ($6.7 million), and external board ($4.1 million).
As the price of natural gas has experienced significant variability, the Company has entered into
contracts designed to manage risks associated with future variability in cash flows caused by
changes in the price of natural gas. The Company has hedged approximately 75% of its expected
natural gas usage for the remainder of 2010 with a weighted average contractual rate of $5.68 per
one million British Thermal Units (mmbtu). Additionally, the Company has hedged approximately
25% of its expected usage for the first quarter of 2011 at a weighted average contractual price of
$5.30 per mmbtu. Since negotiated sales contracts and the market largely determine the pricing for
its products, the Company is at times limited in its ability to raise prices and pass through to
its customers any inflationary or other cost increases that the Company may incur.
Substantial Debt Obligations. The Company has $2,765.7 million of outstanding debt obligations as
of June 30, 2010. This debt can have significant consequences for the Company, as it requires a
significant portion of cash flow from operations to be used for the payment of principal and
interest, exposes the Company to the risk of increased interest rates and restricts the Companys
ability to obtain additional financing. Covenants in the Companys Credit Agreement dated May 15,
2007, as amended (the Credit Agreement) and the indentures governing its 9.5% Senior Notes due
2017 and 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (the Indentures) also prohibit or restrict,
among other things, the disposal of assets, the incurrence of additional indebtedness (including
guarantees), payment of dividends, loans or advances and certain other types of transactions. These
restrictions could limit the Companys flexibility to respond to changing market conditions and
competitive pressures. The Credit Agreement also requires compliance with a maximum consolidated
secured leverage ratio. The Companys ability to comply in future periods with the financial
covenant will depend on its ongoing financial and operating performance, which in turn will be
subject to many other factors, many of which are beyond the Companys control. See Financial
Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources Liquidity and Capital Resources for additional
information regarding the Companys debt obligations.
The substantial debt and the restrictions under the Credit Agreement and the Indentures could limit
the Companys flexibility to respond to changing market conditions and competitive pressures. The
material outstanding debt obligations and the restrictions may also leave the Company more
vulnerable to a downturn in general economic conditions or its business, or unable to carry out
capital expenditures that are necessary or important to its growth strategy and productivity
improvement programs.
Commitment to Cost Reduction. In light of increasing margin pressure throughout the packaging
industry, the Company has programs in place that are designed to reduce costs, improve productivity
and increase profitability. The Company utilizes a global continuous improvement initiative that
uses statistical process control to help design and manage many types of activities, including
production and maintenance. This includes a Six Sigma process focused on reducing variable and
fixed manufacturing and administrative costs. The Company expanded the continuous improvement
initiative to include the deployment of Lean Sigma principles into manufacturing and supply chain
services. As the Company strengthens the systems approach to continuous improvement, Lean Sigma
supports the efforts to build a high performing culture. During the first six months of 2010, the
Company achieved $81.3 million in cost savings as compared to the first six months of 2009, through
its continuous improvement programs and integration synergies. The Companys ability to continue to
successfully implement its business strategies and to realize anticipated savings and operating
efficiencies is subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and
contingencies, many of which are beyond the Companys control. If the Company cannot successfully
implement the strategic cost reductions or other cost savings plans, it may not be able to continue
to compete successfully against other manufacturers. In addition, any failure to generate the
anticipated efficiencies and savings could adversely affect the Companys financial results.
Competition and Market Factors. As some products can be packaged in different types of materials,
the Companys sales are affected by competition from other manufacturers CUK board and other
substrates such as solid bleached sulfate and recycled clay-coated news. Substitute products also
include plastic, shrink film and corrugated containers. In addition, while the Company has
long-term relationships with many of its customers, the underlying contracts may be re-bid or
renegotiated from time to time, and the Company may not be successful in renewing on favorable
terms or at all. The Company works to maintain market share through efficiency, product innovation
and strategic sourcing to its customers; however, pricing and other competitive pressures may
occasionally result in the loss of a customer relationship.

Table of Contents
The Companys sales historically are also driven by consumer buying habits in the markets its
customers serve. Increases in the costs of living, conditions in the residential real estate
market, high unemployment rates, tight credit markets and declines in consumer disposable income,
as well as other macroeconomic factors, may significantly negatively affect consumer spending
behavior, which could have a material adverse effect on demand for the Companys products. New
product introductions and promotional activity by the Companys customers and the Companys
introduction of new packaging products also impact its sales. The Companys containerboard business
is subject to conditions in the cyclical worldwide commodity paperboard markets, which have a
significant impact on containerboard sales.
Alternative Fuel Tax Credit. The Company burns alternative fuel at its West Monroe, LA and Macon,
GA mills in order to produce energy and recover chemicals. During 2009, the U.S. Internal Revenue
Code allowed an excise tax credit under certain circumstances for the use of alternative fuels and
alternative fuel mixtures. In the first quarter of 2009, the Company filed an application with the
Internal Revenue Service (the IRS) for certification of eligibility to receive the tax credit for
its use of black liquor in alternative fuel mixtures in the recovery boilers at the mills. During
the second quarter of 2009, the Company received notification from the IRS that its registration as
an alternate fuel mixer had been approved. As of June 30, 2009, the Company had submitted refund
claims based on fuel usage at the two mills from mid-January 2009 through June 30, 2009 totaling
$61.9 million and had received refunds totaling $51.6 million. The net impact of the tax credit is
included in Restructuring and Other Special Charges (Credits) in the amount of $61.9 million for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, and is included in Corporate for segment reporting
purposes. The excise tax credit expired on December 31, 2009.
OVERVIEW OF 2010 RESULTS
This managements discussion and analysis contains an analysis of Net Sales, Income from Operations
and other information relevant to an understanding of results of operations.
| Net Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2010 decreased by $7.3 million, or 0.7%, to
$1,036.5 million from $1,043.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 primarily due
to lower pricing in the paperboard packaging and multi-wall bag segments and the impact of the
divested businesses. These decreases were partially offset by volume improvement in the
multi-wall bag and specialty packaging segments, higher pricing in specialty packaging, and
favorable currency exchange rates in Japan, Canada, and Australia which offset the unfavorable
impact in Europe. |
||
| Income from Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2010 decreased by $65.2 million,
or 74.1%, to $22.8 million from $88.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. This
decrease was primarily due to the $55.3 million alternative fuel tax credit net of expenses
received in the second quarter of 2009 and $12.2 million in merger-related charges associated
with the Companys finalization of its restructuring activities. The negative impacts of the
higher inflation and lower pricing were partially offset by cost savings achieved through
continuous improvement programs and integration synergies. |

Paperboard Packaging
The Companys Net Sales from paperboard packaging for the three months ended June 30, 2010
decreased by $11.5 million, or 1.3%, to $867.8 million from $879.3 million for the same period in
2009 as a result of lower pricing for consumer and beverage products. The lower pricing for
consumer and beverage products is primarily due to the timing of deflationary cost pass throughs as
a result of deflation during 2009. These cost pass throughs usually lag deflation by two to three
quarters. The Companys announced March 2010 and April 2010
price increases for open market CRB and CUK, respectively, had a slight
benefit on the quarter. The Company announced additional price increases in July 2010 for
open market CRB and CUK effective in August 2010 which should impact sales in the second half of
the year. Increased volumes for containerboard, open market CRB and CUK, and Europe were partially
offset by lower volume for consumer and beverage products. The corrugated medium machine was down
for 17 days during the second quarter of 2009 due to softness in that market. The lower consumer
products sales were due to the continuing impact of general market conditions in which volume has
remained steady in staples (e.g., dry mixes, pizza) and was down in discretionary items (e.g.,
eating out). The decrease in beverage
29
Table of Contents
volume
due to general market conditions and shift from beer to wine and spirits was partially offset by
increased soft drink volumes due to promotional activities and new international and non-carbonated
beverage business. Unfavorable exchange rates in Europe were partially offset by favorable rates
in Japan and Australia.
Multi-wall Bag
The Companys Net Sales from multi-wall bag for the three months ended June 30, 2010 decreased by
$1.5 million, or 1.3%, to $113.8 million from $115.3 million for the same period in 2009 as a
result of lower pricing primarily due to negotiated deflationary pass throughs and the impact of
the divested bag equipment business. These decreases were partially offset by higher volume as a
result of market improvements in the building products, chemical and mineral industries.
Specialty Packaging
The Companys Net Sales from specialty packaging for the three months ended June 30, 2010 increased
by $5.7 million, or 11.6%, to $54.9 million from $49.2 million for the same period in 2009 as a
result of higher volume/mix due to market improvements in the building products, chemical, and food
and pharmaceutical industries; higher pricing, and favorable exchange rates in Canada. These
increases were partially offset by the impact of the divested ink business.

Paperboard Packaging
The Companys Income from Operations from paperboard packaging for the three months ended June 30,
2010 decreased by $10.4 million, or 12.2%, to $75.0 million from $85.4 million for the same period
in 2009 as a result of higher inflation, the lower pricing in consumer and beverage products and
the timing of maintenance outages, partially offset by cost savings through continuous improvement
programs and integration synergies. The inflation was primarily related to higher secondary fiber
and wood ($18.2
30
Table of Contents
million); resin and inks and coatings ($6.7 million); freight ($3.6 million); external board ($2.3
million); and other costs ($0.9 million). These higher costs were partially offset by lower labor
and related benefits ($7.6 million) and lower energy costs ($5.1 million), mainly due to the price
of natural gas.
Multi-wall Bag
The Companys Loss from Operations from multi-wall bag for the three months ended June 30, 2010
decreased by $1.6 million, or 94.1%, to $0.1 million from $1.7 million for the same period in 2009
as a result of lower inflation, primarily for labor and related benefits and external paper, and
cost savings. These increases were partially offset by the lower pricing. In the second quarter of
2009 the Company incurred accelerated depreciation for assets that would be removed from service
before the end of their useful lives due to a facility closure.
Specialty Packaging
The Companys Income from Operations from specialty packaging for the three months ended June 30,
2010 increased by $1.0 million, or 27.8%, to $4.6 million from $3.6 million for the same period in
2009 as a result of cost savings and the higher pricing and volume. These increases were partially
offset by higher costs, primarily for resin, and a gain on the sale of the ink business in 2009.
Corporate
The Companys Loss from Operations from corporate for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was
$56.7 million compared to a $0.7 million Income from Operations for the same period in 2009. The
change was primarily due to the $55.3 million alternative fuel tax credit net of expenses received
in the second quarter of 2009 and higher merger related expenses of $12.2 million. During the
second quarter of 2010, the Company finalized its restructuring activities and concluded that
certain facilities were no longer an essential part of its manufacturing and warehouse footprint and that the
facilities would be disposed. The Company recorded charges of $29.7 million to write down to
fair market value less costs to sell these facilities and to establish a liability for
multi-employer postemployment benefits for union employees at these facilities. Merger-related
expenses in 2009 included a $19.4 million noncash charge related to excess maintenance, repair and
overhaul (MRO) inventory.

Paperboard Packaging
The Companys Net Sales from paperboard packaging for the first six months of 2010 decreased by
$17.3 million, or 1.0%, to $1,702.4 million from $1,719.7 million for the same period in 2009 as a
result of lower pricing for consumer and beverage products and containerboard. The lower pricing
for consumer and beverage products is primarily due to the timing of deflationary cost pass
throughs as a result of deflation during 2009. The Company announced price increases which should
impact sales in the second half of the year. Lower volume for consumer and beverage products was
offset by increased volume for containerboard and open market CRB and CUK sales. The corrugated
medium machine was down for 36 days during the first six months of 2009 due to softness in that
market. The lower consumer products sales were due to a decision to exit lower margin business,
as well as the continuing impact of general market conditions in which volume has remained steady
in staples (e.g., dry mixes, cereal, pizza) and was flat or down in discretionary items (e.g.,
frozen foods, eating out). The decrease in beverage volume was due to
general market conditions and shift from
beer to wine and spirits which was partially offset by improved soft drink volumes and new
international and non-carbonated beverage business. Favorable currency exchange rate changes,
primarily in Australia and Japan, also positively impacted Net Sales.
Multi-wall Bag
The Companys Net Sales from multi-wall bag for the first six months of 2010 decreased by $7.4
million, or 3.1%, to $232.7 million from $240.1 million for the same period in 2009 as a result of
lower pricing primarily due to negotiated deflationary pass throughs and the impact of the divested
bag equipment business. These decreases were partially offset by higher volume as a result of
market improvements in the building products, chemical and mineral industries.
Specialty Packaging
The Companys Net Sales from specialty packaging for the first six months of 2010 increased by $2.3
million, or 2.2%, to $105.5 million from $103.2 million for the same period in 2009 as a result of
higher volume/mix due to market improvements in the building products, chemical, and food and
pharmaceutical industries; higher pricing and favorable currency exchange rates in Canada,
partially offset by the impact of the divested ink business.

Paperboard Packaging
The Companys Income from Operations from paperboard packaging for the first six months of 2010
increased by $9.3 million, or 6.6%, to $150.7 million from $141.4 million for the same period in
2009 as a result of cost savings through continuous improvement programs and integration synergies
primarily focused on maximizing productivity and minimizing waste in the production cycle. These
cost savings were partially offset by the lower pricing in consumer and beverage products,
inflation, and the lower volume. In 2009, the Company incurred higher accelerated depreciation
related to assets that will be removed from service before the end of their useful lives due to
facility closures, higher costs associated with the then pending closure of the Companys plant in
Grenoble, France and higher unabsorbed fixed costs due to 36 days of market downtime. The inflation
was primarily related to higher secondary fiber and wood ($28.6 million); freight ($3.7 million);
other costs ($3.6 million); external board ($2.1 million); and resin and inks and coatings ($7.7
million). These higher costs were partially offset by lower energy costs ($20.6 million), mainly
due to the price of natural gas, and chemicals ($6.7 million).
Multi-wall Bag
The Companys Income from Operations from multi-wall bag for the first six months of 2010 increased
by $0.9 million, or 64.3%, to $2.3 million from $1.4 million for the same period in 2009 as a
result of cost savings through continuous improvement programs and lower inflation, primarily for
external paper. These cost savings were partially offset by the lower pricing. In the second
quarter of 2009, the Company recorded accelerated depreciation for assets that would be removed
from service before the end of their useful lives due to a facility closure.
Specialty Packaging
The Companys Income from Operations from specialty packaging for the first six months of 2010
increased by $2.8 million, or 45.9%, to $8.9 million from $6.1 million for the same period in 2009
as a result of cost savings and the higher pricing and volume. These increases were partially
offset by higher costs, primarily for resin, and the gain on the sale of the ink business in 2009.
Corporate
The Companys Loss from Operations from corporate for the first six months of 2010 was $79.5
million compared to $27.8 million for the same period in 2009. The change was primarily due to the
$55.3 million alternative fuel tax credit net of expenses received in the second quarter of 2009
and higher merger-related expense primarily for the charges related to finalizing restructuring
activities and, in 2009, the charge related to MRO inventory.

Table of Contents
INTEREST EXPENSE, NET AND INCOME TAX EXPENSE
Interest Expense, Net
Interest Expense, Net was $90.0 million and $104.7 million for the first six months of 2010 and
2009, respectively. Interest Expense decreased due to lower levels of debt as well as lower average
rates on the unhedged portion of the Companys debt. As of June 30, 2010, approximately 18% of the
Companys total debt was subject to floating interest rates.
Income Tax Expense
During the first six months of 2010, the Company recognized Income Tax Expense of $18.8 million on
Loss before Income Taxes and Equity in Net Earnings of Affiliates of $8.5 million. During the first
six months of 2009, the Company recognized Income Tax Expense of $19.4 million on Income before
Income Taxes and Equity in Net Earnings of Affiliates of $10.3 million. Income Tax Expense for the
first six months of both 2010 and 2009 primarily relates to the noncash expense of $15.9 million,
associated with the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes. The Company has approximately $1.3
billion of net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which may be used
to offset future taxable income.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company broadly defines liquidity as its ability to generate sufficient funds from both
internal and external sources to meet its obligations and commitments. In addition, liquidity
includes the ability to obtain appropriate debt and equity financing and to convert into cash those
assets that are no longer required to meet existing strategic and financial objectives. Therefore,
liquidity cannot be considered separately from capital resources that consist of current or
potentially available funds for use in achieving long-range business objectives and meeting debt
service commitments. The expiration of the alternative fuel tax credit on December 31, 2009 is not
expected to negatively impact the Companys ability to fund operations, make appropriate capital
expenditures or meet its annual debt reduction targets.

(35.4 | ) | (126.3 | ) |
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of 2010 totaled $100.7 million,
compared to $173.9 million for the same period in 2009. The decrease was primarily due to the
alternative fuel tax credit received in 2009 of $51.6 million, higher working capital requirements
of $37.7 million primarily as a result of higher inventory levels and increased contributions to
the pension plans, partially offset by higher accruals associated with the finalization of the
Companys restructuring activities. In 2009, a heightened focus on cash management drove down
inventory levels.
Net cash used in investing activities for the first six months of 2010 totaled $42.2 million,
compared to $57.1 million for the same period in 2009. This year over year change was due primarily
to a decrease in capital spending of $26.7 million as a result of managements continued focus on
tighter cash management.
Net cash used in financing activities for the first six months of 2010 totaled $35.4 million
compared to net cash used in financing activities of $126.3 million for the same period in 2009.
This decrease was primarily due to lower net payments under the Companys revolving credit
facilities, partially offset by the Companys redemption in June 2010 of $34.9 million of its
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013.
In July 2009, the Company called an additional $67 million of its Senior Subordinated Notes due
2013 for settlement on August 16, 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Companys liquidity needs arise primarily from debt service on its substantial indebtedness and
from the funding of its capital expenditures, ongoing operating costs and working capital.
Principal and interest payments under the term loan facility and the revolving credit facility,
together with principal and interest payments on the Companys 9.5% Senior Notes due 2017 and 9.5%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013, represent significant liquidity requirements for the Company.
Based upon current levels of operations, anticipated cost savings and expectations as to future
growth, the Company believes that cash generated from operations, together with amounts available
under its revolving credit facility and other available financing sources, will be adequate to
permit the Company to meet its debt service obligations, necessary capital expenditure program
requirements and ongoing operating costs and working capital needs, although no assurance can be
given in this regard. The Companys future financial and operating performance, ability to service
or refinance its debt and ability to comply with the covenants and restrictions contained in its
debt agreements (see Covenant Restrictions) will be subject to future economic conditions,
including conditions in the credit markets, and to financial, business and other factors, many of
which are beyond the Companys control, and will be substantially dependent on the selling prices
and demand for the Companys products, raw material and energy costs, and the Companys ability to
successfully implement its overall business and profitability strategies.
Covenant Restrictions
The Credit Agreement and the Indentures limit the Companys ability to incur additional
indebtedness. Additional covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and the Indentures, among
other things, restrict the ability of the Company to dispose of assets, incur guarantee
obligations, prepay other indebtedness, make dividends and other restricted payments, create liens,
make equity or debt investments, make acquisitions, modify terms of the Indentures, engage in
mergers or consolidations, change the business conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries, and
engage in certain transactions with affiliates. Such restrictions, together with the highly
leveraged nature of the Company and recent disruptions in the credit markets, could limit the
Companys ability to respond to changing market conditions, fund its capital spending program,
provide for unexpected capital investments or take advantage of business opportunities.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company must comply with a maximum consolidated
secured leverage ratio, which is defined as the ratio of: (a) total long-term and short-term
indebtedness of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP), plus the aggregate
cash proceeds received by the Company and its subsidiaries from any receivables or other
securitization but excluding therefrom (i) all unsecured indebtedness, (ii) all subordinated
indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the Credit Agreement, and (iii) all secured
indebtedness of foreign subsidiaries to (b) Adjusted EBITDA, which we refer to as Credit Agreement
EBITDA(1). Pursuant to this financial covenant, the Company must maintain a maximum consolidated
secured leverage ratio of less than the following:
Maximum Consolidated Secured | ||
Leverage Ratio(1) | ||
October 1, 2009 and thereafter |
4.75 to 1.00 | |
Note:
(1) | Credit Agreement EBITDA is defined in the Credit Agreement as consolidated net income before
consolidated net interest expense, non-cash expenses and charges, total income tax expense,
depreciation expense, expense associated with amortization of intangibles and other assets,
non-cash provisions for reserves for discontinued operations, extraordinary, unusual or
non-recurring gains or losses or charges or credits, gain or loss associated with sale or
write-down of assets not in the ordinary course of business, any income or loss accounted for
by the equity method of accounting, and projected run rate cost savings, prior to or within a
twelve month period. |
At June 30, 2010, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenant in the Credit Agreement
and the ratio was as follows:
Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio 2.89 to 1.00

Table of Contents
The Companys management believes that presentation of the consolidated secured leverage ratio and
Credit Agreement EBITDA herein provides useful information to investors because borrowings under
the Credit Agreement are a key source of the Companys liquidity, and the Companys ability to
borrow under the Credit Agreement is dependent on, among other things, its compliance with the
financial ratio covenant. Any failure by the Company to comply with this financial covenant could
result in an event of default, absent a waiver or amendment from the lenders under such agreement,
in which case the lenders may be entitled to declare all amounts owed to be due and payable
immediately.
Credit Agreement EBITDA is a financial measure not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is
not a measure of net income, operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in
accordance with U.S. GAAP. Credit Agreement EBITDA should be considered in addition to results
prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to
U.S. GAAP results. In addition, Credit Agreement EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA or
similarly titled measures utilized by other companies because other companies may not calculate
Credit Agreement EBITDA in the same manner as the Company does.
The calculations of the components of the maximum consolidated secured leverage ratio as of and for
the twelve month period ended June 30, 2010 are listed below:

Notes:
(a) | As defined by the Credit Agreement, this represents projected cost savings expected by the
Company to be realized as a result of specific actions taken or expected to be taken prior to
or within twelve months of the period in which Credit Agreement EBITDA is to be calculated,
net of the amount of actual benefits realized or expected to be realized from such actions. |
|
The terms of the Credit Agreement limit the amount of projected run rate cost savings that may be
used in calculating Credit Agreement EBITDA by stipulating that such amount may not exceed the
lesser of (i) ten percent of EBITDA as defined in the Credit Agreement for the last twelve-month
period (before giving effect to projected run rate cost savings) and (ii) $100 million. As a
result, in calculating Credit Agreement EBITDA above, the Company used projected run rate cost
savings of $61.1 million or ten percent of EBITDA as calculated in accordance with the Credit
Agreement, which amount is lower than total projected cost savings identified by the Company, net
of actual benefits realized for the twelve month period ended June 30, 2010. Projected run rate
cost savings were calculated by the Company solely for its use in calculating Credit Agreement
EBITDA for purposes of determining compliance with the maximum consolidated secured leverage
ratio contained in the Credit Agreement and should not be used for any other purpose. |

(b) | Represents consolidated indebtedness/securitization that is either (i) unsecured, or (ii) all
subordinated indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the Credit Agreement, or secured
indebtedness permitted to be incurred by the Companys foreign subsidiaries per the Credit
Agreement. |
If inflationary pressures on key inputs resume, or depressed selling prices, lower sales volumes,
increased operating costs or other factors have a negative impact on the Companys ability to
increase its profitability, the Company may not be able to maintain its compliance with the
financial covenant in its Credit Agreement. The Companys ability to comply in future periods with
the financial covenant in the Credit Agreement will depend on its ongoing financial and operating
performance, which in turn will be subject to economic conditions and to financial, business and
other factors, many of which are beyond the Companys control, and will be substantially dependent
on the selling prices for the Companys products, raw material and energy costs, and the Companys
ability to successfully implement its overall business strategies, and meet its profitability
objective. If a violation of the financial covenant or any of the other covenants occurred, the
Company would attempt to obtain a waiver or an amendment from its lenders, although no assurance
can be given that the Company would be successful in this regard. The Credit Agreement and the
Indentures have certain cross-default or cross-acceleration provisions; failure to comply with
these covenants in any agreement could result in a violation of such agreement which could, in
turn, lead to violations of other agreements pursuant to such cross-default or cross-acceleration
provisions. If an event of default occurs, the lenders are entitled to declare all amounts owed to
be due and payable immediately. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the
Companys domestic assets.
Capital Investment
The Companys capital investment in the first six months of 2010 was $39.7 million compared to
$66.4 million in the first six months of 2009. During the first six months of 2010, the Company had
capital spending of $27.2 million for improving process capabilities, $8.6 million for capital
spares and $3.9 million for manufacturing packaging machinery.
Environmental Matters
Some of the Companys current and former facilities are the subject of environmental investigations
and remediations resulting from historical operations and the release of hazardous substances or
other constituents. Some current and former facilities have a history of industrial usage for which
investigation and remediation obligations may be imposed in the future or for which indemnification
claims may be asserted against the Company. Also, potential future closures or sales of facilities
may necessitate further investigation and may result in future remediation at those facilities. The
Company has established reserves for those facilities or issues where liability is probable and the
costs are reasonably estimable.
For further discussion of the Companys environmental matters, see Note 9 in Part I, Item 1, Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and changes in these estimates are
recorded when known. The critical accounting policies used by management in the preparation of the
Companys consolidated financial statements are those that are important both to the presentation
of the Companys financial condition and results of operations and require significant judgments by
management with regard to estimates used.
The Companys most critical accounting policies which require significant judgment or involve
complex estimations are described in GPHCs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2009.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
