Item 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 17, 1996
and amended as of June 19, 1996 and June 26, 1996 (the "Merger Agreement"),
among IPC, Inc. ("IPC"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Ivex Packaging Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Ivex"), Package
Acquisition, Inc. ("Sub"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary
of IPC, CFI Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CFI"), and Equity
Holdings, an Illinois general partnership ("Equity"), on August 16, 1996, Sub
was merged with and into CFI with CFI surviving the merger as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of IPC (the "Merger").
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the
effective time of the Merger, the outstanding shares of common stock, par value
$1.00 per share, of CFI (the "Common Stock"), were converted into the right to
receive approximately $13.9 million cash in the aggregate and IPC assumed
approximately $4.5 million of indebtedness. After payment of transaction
expenses, CFI stockholders will receive $6.22 per share.
The purchase price and the other terms and conditions of the Merger
were negotiated over a period of several months between representatives of CFI
and representatives of IPC. Duff and Phelps Capital Markets Co. acted as
financial advisor to CFI in connection with the Merger and delivered a written
opinion to the Board of Directors of CFI to the effect that the purchase price
was fair from a financial point of view for the holders of CFI's common stock.
At a Special Meeting of CFI's stockholders held on August 15, 1996, the
stockholders of CFI voted upon and approved the Merger.
IPC and Sub financed the payment of the purchase price and all other
fees and expenses associated with the Merger through cash from operations and
from borrowings under IPC's revolving credit facility under IPC's Credit
Agreement, dated as of December 7, 1995, among IPC, Ivex, the subsidiaries of
IPC, the lenders identified therein and NationsBank, N.A., as agent.
CFI, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Plastofilm Industries, Inc.,
is a fully integrated custom thermoformer of plastic packaging for the medical,
electronics and consumer markets.

At the effective time of the Merger, Equity was the beneficial and

directors and executive officers of CFI beneficially owned, in the aggregate,
an additional 7,875 shares of common stock (excluding shares subject to stock
options that were cancelled in connection with the Merger).

UNAUDITED COMBINED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited combined financial statements present, on a
pro forma basis, the effect of the acquisition by IPC, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("IPC") and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ivex Packaging Corporation
("Ivex" or "the Company") of CFI Industries, Inc. ("CFI") effective August 16,
1996 (the "Acquisition"). The unaudited combined pro forma financial
statements assume that the Acquisition will be accounted for using the purchase
method; as such, the assets and liabilities of CFI will be recorded at their
estimated fair values at the date of the Acquisition. Studies, including
appraisals of properties, will be made to determine the fair value of net
assets acquired; however, such studies will not be completed for some time and
when complete will result in adjustments to the preliminary estimates of fair
value included herein. The unaudited combined pro forma financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of CFI
and footnotes thereto.
The Unaudited Combined Pro Forma Financial Statements do not
necessarily reflect the operations of IPC and CFI as they would have been had
the two entities existed as one entity for the periods shown and the operating
results should not be deemed to be indicative of the future operations of the
combined entity.
The Pro Forma Combined Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for the
year ended December 31, 1995 combine the results of IPC and CFI for the
twelve-month period ended December 31, 1995 on the assumption that the
Acquisition had been consummated at the beginning of the twelve month period.
The Pro Forma Combined Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 combine the results of IPC for the six months ended June
30, 1996 and the results of CFI for the six months ended March 31, 1996 (which
represents CFI's latest available interim financial statements) on the
assumption that the Acquisition had been consumated at the beginning of the six
month period. The results of CFI for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 are
included in both the Pro Forma Combined Statements of Operations (Unaudited)
for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the six
F-1
<PAGE> 6
months ended June 30, 1996. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet (Unaudited) at June
30, 1996 combines the June 30, 1996 balance sheet of IPC and the March 31, 1996
balance sheet of CFI (which represents CFI's latest available interim financial
statements) on the assumption that the Acquisition had been consumated as of
the date of the Pro Forma Balance Sheet. The pro forma adjustments are based
upon available information and certain assumptions that management believes are
reasonable.

NOTES TO THE PRO FORMA COMBINED BALANCE SHEET (UNAUDITED):
(1) The Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet reflects the purchase of CFI at a
cost of $6.34 per share. The total cost of $13,931 includes $12,680
for issued and outstanding shares and $1,251 for net value of issued
and outstanding options.
(2) In connection with the preparation of the Pro Forma Combined Balance
Sheet, the historical book values of certain assets were adjusted to
estimated fair values as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
To increase property and equipment to
estimated fair value $ 1,500
To record the excess purchase price
over the fair value of net assets
acquired 2,985
------------
Total increase in net assets to reflect
estimated fair values $ 4,485
============
</TABLE>
The above adjustments reflect estimates made for the purpose of
preparing the Unaudited Combined Pro Forma Financial Statements. The
final determination of fair value adjustments to be made to CFI's
assets and liabilities will be based on appraisals and evaluations
completed over the next several months which will result in changes to
the estimates shown above.
(3) Amount represents estimated direct acquisition expenses incurred by
IPC.
(4) The Acquisition cost, including direct acquisition expenses incurred
by IPC, of $14,381 and the pay off of CFI debt, net of cash acquired,
of $2,586 was financed with a draw on IPC's revolving credit facility.

5. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
During fiscal 1991 soil conditions at Plastofilm's, (Plastofilm Industries
Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) Wheaton, Illinois facility were
discovered which need remediation. At June 30, 1991, a pre-tax provision of
$1.0 million was recorded for the estimated costs of testing and remediation.
At June 28, 1992, an additional pre-tax provision of $1.0 million was recorded
to reflect the then currently estimated costs to complete the soil remediation.
Expenditures during fiscal 1995 and prior years were approximately $807,000.
Expenditures to date during fiscal 1996 have been approximately $14,000. During
fiscal 1993 the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency requested certain
additional testing to be performed before approval of the Company's voluntary
clean-up plan. These tests were conducted in fiscal 1994 and submitted to the
Illinois Environmental Protection Agency in fiscal 1995 for approval. The
approval of the Company's voluntary clean-up is pending.
The Company has received a demand for the payment of withdrawal liability
in the amount of approximately $360,000 from a multi-employer pension plan to
which the Company made contributions in connection with a discontinued
business. The Company disputes that it has any withdrawal liability and, in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act, has demanded that this dispute be resolved through arbitration.
The Company is making quarterly contributions of approximately $10,000 as
required by law pending arbitration. Through March 31, 1996 the Company has
made payments of approximately $124,000. These payments will be returned to the
Company, with interest, if it is ultimately determined that the Company has no
liability.
The Company, in connection with a discontinued business, has been named by
the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("US-EPA") as a potentially
responsible party in a Superfund Proceeding. The US-EPA has determined the
Company to be a de minimus contributor and has offered a settlement agreement
to all parties. The Company has accepted the settlement agreement which will
require total payments of $80,586. On January 16, 1996, the Company paid the
first installment of $40,293. The second and final installment is due on July
16, 1996. The settlement amount has been provided for in the financial
statements.
6. Debt
On January 15, 1996, the Company entered into a new long-term debt
agreement. Under the terms of this new agreement, the Company can borrow a
maximum of $3,000,000, at a fixed rate of 7.74% with regular monthly principal
payments of $50,000, maturing on February 1, 2001. The Company used this new
borrowing to retire previous long-term debt of $1,845,000 and also paid down
its secured short-term line of credit by $1,100,000. As of March 31, 1996 the
Company has $3,000,000 available under the secured short-term line of credit,
none of which is outstanding.
The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Plastofilm LTD, has
negotiated a $1,600,000 credit facility with a financial institution in
Northern Ireland. As of March 31, 1996, there have been no advances made
against the credit facility.

consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 1995. Our audits also
included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 8. These
financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
the financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of CFI Industries, Inc. and
subsidiaries at June 30, 1995 and June 26, 1994, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended

Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in
relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole,

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1995, JUNE 26, 1994 AND JUNE 27, 1993
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
FISCAL YEAR -- The Company's fiscal year ends on the last day in June. Prior
to fiscal 1995 the Company's fiscal year ended the last Sunday in June.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION -- The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of CFI Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company" or "CFI").
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
MARKETABLE SECURITIES -- Marketable securities, which were carried at the lower
of cost or market, consisted of a mutual fund invested primarily in 100%
government backed mortgage securities. Unrealized losses on such securities in
fiscal 1994 of $77,000 were offset against interest income.
REVENUE RECOGNITION -- Revenue from product sales is recognized at the time the
product is shipped.
INVENTORIES -- Inventories, which consist of roll stock and pelletized or
thermoformed plastics, are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value
using the first-in, first-out or weighted average cost methods. Cost includes
raw material, labor and manufacturing overhead.
Inventories at June 30, 1995 and June 26, 1994 consisted of the following
(amounts in thousands):

</TABLE>
DEPRECIATION -- Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided by
using the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the
assets as follows: buildings, 10 to 40 years; equipment, 3 to 20 years; and
furniture and fixtures, 4 to 10 years.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS -- Intangible assets consist of goodwill, the cost in excess
of net asset value of an acquired business, which is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over a period of 40 years. The Company reviews the
recoverability of goodwill based upon anticipated future operating results, on
a nondiscounted basis, of the acquired business compared with the scheduled
goodwill amortization.
F-18
<PAGE> 23
CALCULATION OF NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE -- The number of shares used
in the net income (loss) per common share calculation is the weighted average
number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding
during each period. Common stock equivalents, in the form of stock options,
have been included in the fiscal 1995 calculation of weighted average shares
outstanding using the treasury stock method. There were no common stock
equivalents included in the calculation of net loss per common share for fiscal
1994 and 1993 as outstanding options were antidilutive during such periods.
STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS -- For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the
Company considers all highly liquid investment instruments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
For fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Company paid $23,000, $32,000 and $20,000,
respectively, for legal services rendered by Rosenberg & Liebentritt, P.C., a
law firm whose two shareholders are members of the Company's Board of
Directors. The Company believes that these fees are no less favorable than
could be obtained from an outside party.
In addition, individuals and companies affiliated with Equity Group
Investments, Inc. ("EGI"), a related party, provide services to the Company and
its subsidiaries relating to corporate planning, tax advice and other matters.
Amounts paid to EGI or its affiliates for such services in fiscal 1995, 1994
and 1993 were $46,000, $69,000 and $42,000, respectively. The Company believes
that these fees are no less favorable than could be obtained from an outside
party.

4. SHORT-TERM DEBT
Plastofilm Industries, Inc. ("Plastofilm"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, has a secured loan agreement (the "Agreement") with a financial
institution pursuant to which it has borrowings under a revolving line of
credit, a term loan and a capital expenditure line. The Agreement is secured
by substantially all of Plastofilm's assets. (See Note 5.)
The $2.5 million line of credit bears interest at the prime rate plus 1/4%
(9.25% at June 30, 1995) and is renewable at the option of such financial
institution on November 30, 1995. Plastofilm anticipates that this line of
credit will be renewed. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, maximum
borrowings under this line were $2.0 million and borrowings under this line
at June 30, 1995 were $0.8 million. During the fiscal year ended June 26,
1994, Plastofilm's line of credit was $2.0 million, maximum borrowings under
this line were $2.0 million and $2.0 million was outstanding at June 26, 1994.
Average borrowings were $1,625,000 and $1,643,000 for the fiscal years ended
June 30, 1995 and June 26, 1994, respectively. The weighted average interest
rate was 8.61% in fiscal 1995 and 6.46% in fiscal 1994.
5. LONG-TERM DEBT
Long-term debt consisted of the following as of June 30, 1995 and June 26, 1994

The long-term debt matures as follows: $742,000 in 1996, $1,687,000 in 1997,
$326,000 in 1998, $96,000 in 1999, $96,000 in 2000 and $24,000 thereafter.
The Agreement between Plastofilm and its lender restricts the transfer of funds
between Plastofilm and the Company through the imposition of tangible net worth
requirements, debt to equity ratios and cash flow requirements. As a result of
these restrictions, approximately 75% of the consolidated net assets of
Plastofilm were restricted from being transferred to the Company as of June 30,
1995.
6. COMMITMENTS
The Company and its subsidiaries lease certain facilities and equipment under
various lease agreements. Total minimum commitments payable under these leases

A valuation reserve is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets to a level
which management expects will be realized in the future. The valuation reserve
for deferred tax assets as of June 26, 1994 was $3,715,000. The net change in
the total valuation reserve for the year ended June 30, 1995 was a decrease of
$1,033,000. Of this amount $457,000, resulted from the utilization of $487,000
of net operating loss carryforwards net of $30,000 of alternative minimum tax
credits generated. The remaining $576,000 decrease resulted primarily from the
Company's reevaluation of the realizability of future income tax benefits based
on the Company's increased future profit expectations and improving business
conditions.
At June 30, 1995, for income tax purposes the Company had net operating loss
carryforwards of $6.7 million and general business credits carryforwards of $.7
million. The net operating loss carryforwards expire in years 2001 to 2009;
the general business credits carryforwards expire in years 1999 and 2000.
8. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLANS
Until December 31, 1991, Plastofilm had a non-contributory profit sharing plan
and a non-contributory pension plan. On November 12, 1991, the Board of
Directors of Plastofilm adopted a resolution to curtail future benefit accruals
in both plans as of December 31, 1991 and effective May 31, 1995 the pension
plan was terminated. The pension plan obligation was not settled as of June
30, 1995. The settlement is not expected to have a material effect on the
fiscal 1996 financial statements. The vested benefits in the profit sharing
plan were placed in a new cash or deferred arrangement pursuant to Section
401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the
Plastofilm Employee Savings Plan ("Savings Plan"), which became effective on
January 1, 1992.
The Savings Plan is for all employees. Plastofilm's contributions to the
savings plan are at the discretion of Plastofilm's Board of Directors. It is
currently Plastofilm's policy to contribute from 1% to 3% of each participant's
compensation by matching 50% of employee voluntary salary deferrals of the
first 6% of an employee's salary. A participant's contribution may not exceed
15% of annual compensation, or the maximum amount allowable as determined by
the Code, if less than 15% of compensation. The amounts expensed under the
Savings Plan for fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993 were $238,000, $252,000 and
$208,000, respectively.

fiscal 1995 and 1994 and 6.75% in fiscal 1993.
9. STOCK OPTIONS
The Company had originally reserved 100,000 shares of its common stock for
issuance to Directors, officers, key employees and consultants of the Company
through incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and stock
appreciation rights to be granted under the Company's 1991 Stock Option Plan
(the "Plan"). In April 1994, the Company's Board of Directors approved a
proposed amendment to the Company's Plan which would increase the number of
common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options by 500,000 common shares.
The proposed amendment was approved by stockholders at the Company's Annual
Meeting of Stockholders held on December 6, 1994. The plan is administered by
the Compensation Committee (the "Committee") consisting of three members of the
Board of Directors. The option price is determined by the Committee, but
cannot be less than the fair market value of the common stock of the Company at
the date of grant. The options generally vest, in equal cumulative
installments, after three years and expire ten years after the date of grant.
Transactions involving the plan are summarized as follows:

10. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
During fiscal 1991 soil conditions at Plastofilm's Wheaton, Illinois facility
were discovered which need remediation. At June 30, 1991, a pre-tax provision
of $1.0 million was recorded for the estimated costs of testing and
remediation. Fiscal 1992 expenditures for testing and remediation were
approximately $535,000. At June 28, 1992, an additional pre-tax provision of
$1.0 million was recorded to reflect the then currently estimated costs to
complete the soil remediation. Expenditures during fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993
for testing and remediation were approximately $78,000, $67,000 and $127,000,
respectively. During fiscal 1993 the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
requested certain additional testing to be performed before approval of the
Company's voluntary clean-up plan. These tests were conducted in fiscal 1994
and submitted to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency in fiscal 1995
for approval. The approval of the Company's voluntary clean-up plan is
pending.
The Company has received a demand for payment of withdrawal liability in the
amount of approximately $360,000 from a multi-employer pension plan to which
the Company made contributions in connection with a discontinued business. The
Company disputes that it has any withdrawal liability and, in accordance with
the applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, has
demanded that this dispute be resolved through arbitration. The Company is
making quarterly contributions of approximately $10,000 as required by law
pending arbitration. Through June 30, 1995 the Company has made payments of
approximately $95,000. These payments will be returned to the Company, with
interest, if it is ultimately determined that the Company has no liability.
The Company, in connection with a discontinued business, has been named by the
United States Environmental Protection Agency ("US-EPA") as a potentially
responsible party in a Superfund Proceeding. The US-EPA has determined the
Company to be a de minimus contributor and has offered a settlement agreement
to all de minimus parties. The Company has accepted the settlement agreement
which will require total payments of $80,586. Payments will be made in two
equal installments on January 16, 1996 and July 16, 1996. The settlement
amount has been provided for in the financial statements.
11. MAJOR CUSTOMERS
During fiscal years 1995, 1994 and 1993, net sales to Baxter International,
Inc. and its affiliates accounted for approximately $5.2 million (17%), $4.6
million (16%) and $3.6 million (12%), respectively, of the total net sales of
the Company.
