    CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT    



        Section 2.1    Board of Directors.    



        (a)    Board Size.    The Board of Directors of the Company (the
"Board") shall consist of nine members. The members of the Board shall be nominated and elected in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and
the By-Laws of the Company, and the provisions of this Agreement. 


        (b)    Classified Board.    The Certificate of Incorporation and the By-Laws of the Company shall provide that,
subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any series of preferred stock to elect directors as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws, the Board shall be classified with
respect to the time for which the directors severally hold office into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, as
follows: (A) one class consisting initially of three directors ("Class I"), the
initial term of which shall expire at the first annual meeting of stockholders following the Effective Time; (B) a second class consisting
initially of three directors ("Class II"), 



2





 





the initial term of which shall expire at the second annual meeting of stockholders following the Effective Time; and (C) a third class
consisting initially of three directors ("Class III"), the initial term of which shall expire at the third annual meeting of stockholders
following the Effective Time, with each class to hold office until its successors are elected and qualified. At each annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company, the successors of the members of
the class of directors whose term expires at that meeting shall be elected to hold office for a term expiring at the third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders. Immediately after the Effective
Time, the Board shall consist of the seven individuals listed on Exhibit A and two other Independent Directors to be determined between the date hereof and the Effective Time, one to be
designated by the Family Representative and who may be an existing Graphic director and one to be designated by the CDR Fund and who will not be a current or former Affiliate of the CDR Fund or Exor;  provided that the designee of the Family Representative shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the CDR Fund and the designee of the CDR Fund
shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Family Representative. Prior to the Effective Time, the CDR Fund, Exor and the Family Representative shall agree on the allocation of the directors
to the three classes of the Board. 


        (c)    Designees.    Subject to Section 2.1(h), each of the Family Representative, the CDR Fund and Exor shall
have the respective rights to designate individuals for nomination for election to the Board, and the Company shall cause such individuals to be nominated for election to the Board, in each case as
follows: 



          (i)  The
Family Representative shall be entitled to designate one person for nomination for election to the Board for so long as the Family Stockholders, in the aggregate,
own at least 5% of the Fully Diluted shares of Common Stock, consisting of one director in Class III (the "Family Designee"); 


        (ii)  The
CDR Fund shall be entitled to designate: (A) one person for nomination for election to the Board for
so long as it owns at least 5% of the Fully Diluted shares of Common Stock, consisting of one director in Class III; or (B) one person for
nomination for election to the Board, consisting of one director in Class III, for so long as (x) it owns less than 5% of the Fully
Diluted shares of Common Stock and (y) the Former Riverwood Stockholders (including the CDR Fund) hold in the aggregate at least 30% of the Fully
Diluted shares of Common Stock (the "CDR Designee"); and 


        (iii)  Exor
shall be entitled to designate one person for nomination for election to the Board for so long as it owns at least 5% of the Fully Diluted shares of Common Stock,
consisting of one director in Class III (the "Exor Designee"). 





        At
each meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which directors of the Company are to be elected, the Company agrees to recommend that the stockholders elect to the Board each
Family Designee, CDR Designee and Exor Designee nominated for election at such meeting. In addition, for so long as Stephen M. Humphrey serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the
Company shall cause him to be nominated for election to the Board at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which directors of his class are to be elected, and shall recommend that the
stockholders elect him to the Board. 



        (d)    Other Directors.    



          (i)  Each
of the directors other than the Family Designee, the CDR Designee, the Exor Designee and Stephen M. Humphrey (the "Other
Directors") shall be an Independent Director designated for nomination by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. At each meeting of the stockholders of
the Company at which directors of the 




3





 



Company are to be elected, the Company agrees to recommend that the stockholders elect to the Board each Other Director nominated for election at such meeting. 



        (ii)  In
the event that, (A) as a result of a change in the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Family
Stockholders, the CDR Fund or Exor, such Stockholder loses the right to designate to the Board the designee provided for in Section 2.1(c) or (B)
Stephen M. Humphrey ceases to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, such designee or such person shall resign immediately upon receiving notice from the Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee of the Board that such committee has identified a replacement director, and, in any event, shall resign no later than 120 days after
(x) the Family Stockholders, the CDR Fund or Exor loses the right to designate such designee to the Board or
(y) Stephen M. Humphrey ceases to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In such event, the Board seat formerly occupied by
such designee or such individual shall become a seat for an additional Other Director to be selected as provided in this Section 2.1(d). 




        (e)    Agreement to Vote for Directors.    Each Stockholder agrees to vote, in person or by proxy, all Covered Shares
owned by it (i) in favor of Stephen M. Humphrey (for so long as he serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company) and each Family
Designee, CDR Designee, Exor Designee and Other Director when nominated for election to the Board and to take all other steps within such Stockholder's power (including causing the Company to call a
special meeting of stockholders) to ensure that the composition of the Board is as set forth in this Section 2.1 and (ii) against any
merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all the assets of the Company not approved in the manner required by Section 2.2. 


        (f)    Vacancies.    



          (i)  As
long as the Family Stockholders, the CDR Fund or Exor, as the case may be, has any right to designate a person for nomination for election to the Board in any
particular class, as specified in Section 2.1(c), at any time at which a vacancy shall be created on the Board as a result of the death, disability, retirement, resignation, removal or
otherwise of a Family Designee, a CDR Designee or an Exor Designee, as the case may be, in such class, the Family Representative, the CDR Fund or Exor, as the case may be, shall be entitled to
designate for appointment by the remaining directors of the Company under the Certificate of Incorporation an individual to fill such vacancy and to serve as a director on the Board in such class.
Each of the Company and the Stockholders agrees to take such actions as will result in the appointment to the Board as soon as practicable of any individual so designated by the Family Representative,
the CDR Fund or Exor. 


        (ii)  Each
Stockholder further agrees that (x) it shall not vote, or give any proxy or consent, in favor of the removal
as a director of the Company of any Family Designee, CDR Designee or Exor Designee without the prior written consent of the other Stockholders,
(y) except as otherwise set forth in this clause (ii), it shall not give any proxy with respect to shares of the capital stock of the
Company entitling the holder of such proxy to vote on, or give any proxy or consent with respect to, the election of directors unless the holder of such proxy shall have agreed to comply with the
obligations of such Stockholder under this Section 2.1, and (z) if, connection with the election of any Family Designee, CDR Designee or
Exor Designee, any Stockholder indicates that it will not, or fails or refuses to, vote as required by this Section 2.1, or votes or gives any proxy or consent in contravention of this
Section 2.1, such Stockholder hereby constitutes and appoints the Stockholder whose interests are detrimentally affected by such failure or refusal as such Stockholder's irrevocable proxy and
attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution) for purposes of this clause (ii)(z) to vote any and all of the Covered Shares held or controlled by such Stockholder in accordance with 




4





 






this Section 2.1 (the "Proxy"), which Proxy shall revoke any other proxy previously given by the defaulting party in contravention of this
Section 2.1 (it being understood that such Stockholder shall retain the right to vote such shares for all other purposes not inconsistent with this Section 2.1). Subject to
Section 6.2 hereof, each Stockholder intends the Proxy to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest and will take such further action and execute such other instruments as may be necessary to
effectuate the intent of this clause (ii)(z). 


        (iii)  At
any time at which a vacancy shall be created on the Board as a result of the death, disability, retirement, resignation, removal or otherwise of an Other Director
prior to the expiration of his or her term as director, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall notify the Board of a replacement and, provided such replacement would be an Independent
Director, each of the Company and the Stockholders agrees to take such actions as will result in the appointment of such replacement Other Director to the Board as soon as practicable. 




        (g)    Subsidiary Boards.    It is the intention of the Stockholders that the Board of Directors of each of Riverwood
International Corporation and Graphic Packaging Corporation shall consist of 9 members, and shall have the same composition as the Company's Board of Directors. 


        (h)    Term of Rights.    No Stockholder shall be obligated to designate an individual to serve on the Board, and any
vacancy on the Board created by the failure of a Stockholder to designate a director shall be filled by an Independent Director designated for nomination by the Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee of the Board. Except as provided in clause (B) of Section 2.1(c)(ii), the right of any Stockholder to designate a person for nomination for election to the Board shall
terminate at any time at which such Stockholder shall hold less than 5% of the Fully Diluted shares of Common Stock. 




        Section 2.2    Actions of the Board; Affiliate Agreements.    Actions of the Board shall require the
affirmative vote of at least a majority of the directors present in person or by telephone at a duly convened meeting of the Board at which a quorum is present, or the unanimous written consent of the
Board, provided that a Board decision regarding the merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all the assets of the Company shall require the
affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office. In addition to the vote required by the preceding sentence, a decision by the Company or any Subsidiary to enter into an Affiliate
Agreement or to modify or terminate an Affiliate Agreement or to enforce or abandon the rights of the Company or any Subsidiary under or pursuant to any Affiliate Agreement (including the commencement
or settlement of any suit or action) will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors not nominated by a Stockholder which, directly or indirectly through its Affiliate, has an
interest in such Affiliate Agreement. 


        Section 2.3    Board Committees.    



        (a)    Audit Committee.    The Audit Committee of the Board shall have three members, consisting of the CDR Designee,
the Family Designee and one Other Director, or such other members as the CDR Designee and the Family Designee shall mutually agree. Each member of the Audit Committee shall meet the requirements for
membership of an audit committee under applicable law and exchange listing requirements. The Exor Designee shall have the right to attend meetings of the Audit Committee as a non-voting observer and
to receive copies of all written materials provided to the Audit Committee. 



5







  




        (b)    Compensation and Benefits Committee.    The Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board shall have three
members, consisting of the CDR Designee, the Family Designee and one Other Director, or such other members as the CDR Designee and the Family Designee shall mutually agree. No employee of the Company
or its Affiliates shall serve on the Compensation and Benefits Committee. The Exor Designee shall have the right to attend meetings of the Compensation and Benefits Committee as a non-voting observer
and to receive copies of all written materials provided to the Compensation and Benefits Committee. 


        (c)    Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.    The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the
Board shall have five members, consisting of the CDR Designee, the Family Designee, the Exor Designee and two Other Directors, or such other members as the CDR Designee, the Family Designee and the
Exor Designee shall mutually agree. No employee of the Company or its Affiliates shall serve on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. 


        (d)    Initial Composition; Undertaking; Limitation.    Immediately after the Effective Time, the Board committees
referred to in Section 2.3(a)-(c) shall have the membership provided therein, with the positions for Other Directors filled by such Other Directors as the CDR Designee and the Family Designee
(and, with respect to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Exor Designee) shall mutually agree. Each of the Company and the Stockholders agrees to take all steps within its power to
ensure that the composition of the Board's committees is as provided herein. Notwithstanding Section 2.3(a)-(c), no Stockholder shall have the right to have its director designees sit as
members of any committee of the Board in the event such Stockholder holds less than 5% of the Fully Diluted shares of Common Stock; provided that so
long as the CDR Fund owns shares of Common Stock and the Former Riverwood Stockholders (including the CDR Fund) own, in the aggregate, at least 30% of the Fully Diluted Shares of Common Stock, the CDR
Fund shall have the right to have its director designee sit as a member of each committee of the Board. The Board shall fill any committee seats that become vacant pursuant to the preceding sentence
with Other Directors. The Board shall not form an Executive Committee. 




        Section 2.4    Executive Chairman of the Board; Executive Officers.    The Chairman of the Board (the
"Executive Chairman") and the executive officers of the Company shall be appointed in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-Laws.
The initial Executive Chairman shall be Jeffrey H. Coors, and the initial Chief Executive Officer shall be Stephen M. Humphrey. 


        Section 2.5    Observation and Information Rights; Director Emeritus.

1818 Fund II, L.P. (the "1818 Fund") shall have the right to designate Laurence Tucker
("Mr. Tucker") to attend meetings of the Board and to receive copies of all written materials provided to the Board;  provided that (a) Mr. Tucker's observer rights shall terminate at such time as the 1818
Fund shall have Transferred (other than to a Permitted Transferee) 50% or more of the Common Stock held by the 1818 Fund at the Effective Time, and (b)
the 1818 Fund shall have entered into an agreement with the Company, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, setting forth the terms and conditions applicable to such attendance.

Other Riverwood Stockholder (other than the 1818 Fund, which shall have the rights provided in Section 2.5(a), and Wolfensohn-River LLC) shall have
the right to receive copies of all written materials provided to the Board; provided that (a) such Other Riverwood Stockholder's right shall

Effective Time and (b) such Other Riverwood Stockholder shall have entered into an agreement with the Company in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto setting forth the terms and

than 5% of the Fully Diluted shares of Common Stock; and provided further, that the Board may from time to time meet without the presence of any
non-management observers including Mr. W. Coors should the Board so decide. Mr. W. Coors shall not have any right to vote on any matter presented to the Board nor shall he
have any rights, duties, obligations or liability to the Company arising out of acting as an emeritus director and observer other than as provided in this Section 2.5(c) and for breach of the
Family Stockholders' agreement to keep non-public information about the Company they receive confidential.

Transferee shall have all the rights of such Stockholder hereunder (including, without limitation, such Stockholder's rights pursuant to Section 2.1(c)) and such Stockholder shall cease to have
such rights. Each Stockholder is, and will remain, obligated for the performance by any of such party's Permitted Transferees of its obligations hereunder.

or regulation (including complying with any oral or written questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or process to which a Stockholder is
subject), such Person shall, to the extent practicable, promptly notify the other parties of such requirement so that such other parties may seek an appropriate protective order or similar relief.

        (b)  Without
limiting the generality of the obligations set forth in clause (a) of this Section 4.3, each of the CDR Fund, Exor and the Family Representative

including voting any Covered Shares owned by it or any of its Affiliates, to ensure that the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-Laws, subject to applicable law, facilitate and do not at any time
conflict with the provisions of this Agreement.

        Section 6.5    Entire Agreement.    This Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement constitute the entire
agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. 



        Section 6.6    Interpretation.    When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections, Exhibits or
Schedules, such reference shall be to a Section of or Exhibit or Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference

be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts
have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. 


        Section 6.8    Governing Law.    This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to its principles and rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require the application of the law of another jurisdiction. 



        Section 6.9    Assignment.    Except as provided in Article III, neither this Agreement nor any of the
rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties, in whole or in part (whether by operation of law or otherwise), and any attempt to make any such assignment other

their respective successors and assigns. 


        Section 6.10    No Third Party Beneficiaries.    This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the

executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment, modification, 


14





 




discharge or waiver is sought. Any such waiver shall constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter described in such writing and shall in no way impair the rights of the party granting

lawfully serve process, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced
in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and
(c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that (i) the suit, action or
proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper and
