RECITALS

A. GPK and GPC have informed Administrative Agent that, as a result of certain Employee Plan consolidations, the present value of accrued benefits under the combined Employee Plan (based on PBGC actuarial assumptions used for plan termination) minus the value of the assets of the combined Employee Plan (the “Aggregate Plan Liabilities”) exceeds the amount contemplated by Section 8.10(f).

B. GPK and GPC have requested that Lenders agree to delete the representation in Section 8.10(f) with respect to Employee Plans.

C. Additionally, GPK and GPC have requested that Required Lenders waive any Default or Potential Default resulting from any noncompliance with Section 9.10 as a result of the Aggregate Plan Liabilities exceeding the amount contemplated by Section8.10(f) on and after January 1, 2001 (the “Subject Default”).
