NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT FOR EMPLOYEES
NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT dated as of October 12, 2005 between Pregis Holding I Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Hartmut Scherf (the “Optionee”) (this “Agreement”).
The Company’s Compensation Committee or the Company’s Board of Directors acting as the Committee (in either case, the “Committee”) has determined that the Optionee is one of the Key Employees of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates, and that the objectives of the Company’s 2005 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) will be furthered by awarding to the Optionee Options under the Plan. Capitalized terms defined in the Plan and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given such terms in the Plan.
In consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual undertakings set forth in this Agreement, the Company and the Optionee agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Grant of Option.
1.1 The Company hereby grants to the Optionee an option (the “Option”) to purchase 82.77 shares of Common Stock (“Common Stock”) of the Company, at a purchase price of $13,000 per share.
1.2 The Option granted hereby is intended to be a “nonqualified” stock option subject to the provisions of section 83 of the Code and is not intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” subject to the provisions of section 422 of the Code.
SECTION 2. Exercisability.
2.1 Subject to Section 4 hereof regarding a Transaction, the Option shall be exercisable for the cumulative number of shares and at the times provided in the following schedule subject to continued employment by the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates:

2.2 Subject to Section 4 hereof and the terms of the Plan, the Option will terminate as to any and all shares of Common Stock for which the Option has not yet been exercised on October 12, 2015.
SECTION 3. Method of Exercise.
3.1 The Option or any part thereof may be exercised only by giving written notice to the Company in the form of Exhibit A hereto, which notice shall state the election to exercise the Option and the number of whole and fractional shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised. Such notice must be accompanied by payment of the full purchase price for the number of shares purchased.
3.2 Payment of the purchase price shall be made by certified or official bank check payable to the Company. As soon as it is practicable after it receives payment of the purchase price, the Company shall deliver to the Optionee a certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Option.
SECTION 4. Termination of Employment.
The Option granted hereby shall terminate and expire on the day the Optionee’s employment is terminated in the event of a termination for Cause and in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4 of the Plan. Upon the occurrence of a Transaction (as defined in the Plan), the Option shall become immediately exercisable in full. Any Common Stock issued pursuant to exercise of this Option is subject to the right of the Company to purchase set forth in Section 2.4 of the Plan.
SECTION 5. Nonassignability.
No right granted to the Optionee under the Plan or this Agreement shall be assignable or transferable (whether by operation of law or otherwise and whether voluntarily or involuntarily), other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights granted to the Optionee under the Plan or this Agreement shall be exercisable only by the Optionee or his estate, heirs or personal representatives.
SECTION 6. Right of Discharge Reserved.
Nothing in the Plan or in this Agreement shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or affect any right which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates may have to terminate the employment or services of the Optionee.
SECTION 7. No Rights as a Stockholder.
Neither the Optionee nor any person succeeding to the Optionee’s rights hereunder shall have any right as a stockholder with respect to any shares subject to the Option until the date of the issuance of a stock certificate to him for such shares. Except for adjustments made pursuant to Section 3.4 of the Plan, no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights (whether ordinary or extraordinary, and whether in cash, securities or other property) for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is issued.
SECTION 8. Plan Provisions to Prevail.
This Agreement shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of the Plan, which are incorporated hereby and made a part hereof. In the event there is any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern.
