Family Partnership, L.P. as an initial capital contribution. Paul Shore's estate
continues to hold the remaining 615,900 shares of Company Stock. Also, the

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

     Marc P. Shore did not pay consideration for the 2,415,900 shares of
Shorewood Packaging Corporation Stock originally included in his father's estate
(1,800,000 of which were transferred to the Limited Partnership), nor did Marc
P. Shore pay consideration for the options to purchase 60,000 additional shares
which were included in the estate. As discussed in Item 2, Marc P. Shore may be
deemed to have received beneficial ownership of the shares of Company Stock and
the options to purchase additional shares of Company Stock upon his father's
death, pursuant to his father's Will. As an executor of his father's estate,
Marc P. Shore may be deemed to beneficially own the 675,900 shares of Company
Stock which remain in the estate, 60,000 of which the estate purchased for cash
by exercising the options included in the estate. As manager of the LLC, which
is the sole general partner of the Limited Partnership, Marc P. Shore has
decision-making authority with respect to the 1,800,000 shares of Company Stock
owned by the Limited Partnership.

     Marc P. Shore did not pay consideration for the 176,400 shares held by the
Family Trust. Finally, Marc P. Shore paid cash for the 840,401 shares of Company
Stock that he owns in his individual capacity. The options to purchase 84,546
additional shares of Company Stock that Marc P. Shore owns in his individual
capacity were issued to him as compensation under various Company employee stock
option plans.

     The Limited Partnership did not pay consideration for the 1,800,000 shares
of Company Stock. Rather, the 1,800,000 shares were contributed to the
partnership as an initial capital contribution by the LLC, the Marital Trust and
Ellin Shore (who was, but is no longer a limited partner). The 1,800,000 shares
of Company Stock were originally in Paul Shore's estate.

     The LLC did not pay consideration for the 1,800,000 shares of Company Stock
that it may be deemed to beneficially own as sole general partner of the Limited
Partnership.


Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

     In his Will, Paul Shore directed that his son, Marc P. Shore, make
decisions regarding shares of Company Stock (or any options to purchase such
Stock) included in his estate. On May 14, 1996, 950,000 shares of Company Stock
were transferred from the estate to the Marital Trust and 850,000 shares of
Company Stock were transferred from the estate to Ellin Shore. Also on May 14,
1996, the Marital Trust transferred 18,000 of the shares of Company Stock that
it received from the estate to the LLC. Finally, on May 14, 1996, the Marital
Trust, Ellin Shore and the LLC each transferred their respective shares of
Company Stock to the Shore Family Partnership, L.P. as an initial capital
contribution. The purpose of transferring the Company shares to the Limited
Partnership was to facilitate Marc P. Shore's management of the shares.
Accordingly, the transfer was in line with Paul Shore's testamentary direction
that Marc P. Shore have decision-making power with respect to the shares of
Company Stock.

     Marc P. Shore, the Shore Family Partnership, L.P. and the Shore Family, LLC
each own the Company Stock for investment purposes only.
