uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in these
statements. Factors which could cause actual results to differ include but are not limited to: (i) the level of
our indebtedness and changes in interest rates; (ii) industry conditions, including but not limited to
changes in the cost or availability of raw materials, energy and transportation costs, competition we face,
cyclicality and changes in consumer preferences, demand and pricing for our products; (iii) global
economic conditions and political changes, including but not limited to the impairment of financial
institutions, changes in currency exchange rates, credit ratings issued by recognized credit rating
organizations, the amount of our future pension funding obligation, changes in tax laws and pension and
health care costs; (iv) unanticipated expenditures related to the cost of compliance with existing and new
environmental and other governmental regulations and to actual or potential litigation; (v) whether we
experience a material disruption at one of our manufacturing facilities; (vi) risks inherent in conducting
business through joint ventures; (vii) the successful closing of the sale of our corrugated box business in
China and Southeast Asia within the estimated timeframe; and (viii) our ability to achieve the benefits we
expect from all strategic acquisitions, divestitures and restructurings. These and other factors that could
cause or contribute to actual results differing materially from such forward-looking statements are
discussed in greater detail in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings. We undertake no
obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
