INTRODUCTION
Ultra Pac, Inc. ("Ultra Pac") hereby amends and supplements its
Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9, as filed on March 26,
1998 (the "Schedule 14D-9"), with respect to the tender offer made by Package
Acquisition, Inc., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Ivex Packaging
Corporation ("Ivex"), for all of the outstanding Shares. Capitalized terms not
defined herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the Schedule 14D-9.
Item 8 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding
the following:
ITEM 8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO BE FURNISHED.
Regulatory Filing. Pursuant to Section 3.7(b) of the Merger Agreement, on
April 1, 1998, Ultra Pac filed its Notification and Report Form with respect to
the Offer under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended (the "HSR Act"). Ivex filed a Notification and Report Form with respect
to the Offer on March 31, 1998. Under the provisions of the HSR Act applicable
to the Offer, the purchase of shares pursuant to the Offer may not be
consummated until the expiration of a 15-calendar day waiting period following
the Ivex filing under such HSR Act. Accordingly, assuming the filing made by
Ivex was not deficient, the waiting period with respect to the Offer will expire
at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on April 15, 1998, unless Ivex receives a
request for additional information or documentary material or the Antitrust
Division and the Federal Trade Commission terminate the waiting period prior
thereto.
