information described under the section entitled &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus, as such information may be amended, supplemented or superseded by any

prospectus, any prospectus supplement, and the documents incorporated by reference herein include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements are
those that predict or describe future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. You can generally identify forward-looking statements as statements containing the words &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148;
&#147;will,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;intend,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;project,&#148; &#147;plan,&#148; &#147;assume,&#148; &#147;potential&#148; or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain
these identifying words. All statements contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement regarding our future strategies, operations, operating efficiencies or synergies, financial condition, revenues, costs,
prospects, results that might be obtained by pursuing management&#146;s current plans and objectives are forward-looking statements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements because the matters they describe are subject to known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other unpredictable factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our forward-looking statements are based on the information currently available to us and speak only as of the date on which they are made. In the case of any
forward-looking statements made in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement, this date would be the date on the cover of this prospectus, or the date on the cover of any prospectus supplement. In the case of forward-looking statements
incorporated by reference, this date would be the date of the filing that includes the statement. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these matters or how they may affect us. Over time, our
actual results, performance or achievements will likely differ from the anticipated results, performance or achievements that are expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, and such difference might be significant and materially adverse
to our securityholders. We undertake no obligation to, and do not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statements, even if subsequent events cause us to become aware of new risks or cause our expectations to change regarding any
forward-looking statements. We have identified some of the important factors that could cause future events to differ from our current expectations, and they are described under &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K,
and may be supplemented by further information contained in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement, and our subsequent SEC reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, all of which you should review carefully. Please consider our forward-looking
statements in light of those risks as you read this prospectus and any prospectus supplement. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

(ii) improper distributions as described in Section 55-8-33 of the Business Corporation Act, (iii) any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit or (iv) acts or omissions occurring prior to the date the exculpatory
provision became effective. Caraustar&#146;s articles of incorporation limit the personal liability of its directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Business Corporation Act. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

or is threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed legal action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative because of the fact that such person was or is a director, officer, agent or
employee of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. This indemnity may include the obligation to pay any judgment, settlement, penalty,
fine (including an excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan) or reasonable expenses incurred in connection with a proceeding (including counsel fees), but no such indemnification may be granted unless such director, officer,
employee or agent (i) conducted himself in good faith, (ii) reasonably believed (1) that any action taken in his official capacity with the corporation was in the best interests of the corporation or (2) that in all other cases his conduct was not
opposed to the corporation&#146;s best interests, and (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Whether a director has met the requisite standard of conduct for the type of
indemnification set forth above is determined by the board of directors, a committee of directors, special legal counsel or the shareholders in accordance with Section 55-8-55 of the Business Corporation Act. A corporation may not indemnify a

Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>
