PAPERWEIGHT DEVELOPMENT CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In the
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the results of operations for the three months ended April 2, 2006 and April 3, 2005, cash flows for the three months ended April 2, 2006 and April 3,
2005 and financial position at April 2, 2006 have been made. All adjustments made were of a normal recurring nature.

These condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto of Paperweight Development Corp. (PDC or the Company) and subsidiaries for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2005, which are included in the Form 10-K dated March 17, 2006. The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2005, contained within these condensed financial statements, was derived from the
audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Appleton Papers Inc. (Appleton) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PDC.

The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain prior year
financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform to their current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income.

2. ACQUISITION OF BUSINESS

On January 11, 2005, the Company acquired New England Extrusion, Inc., a company that
produces single and multilayer polyethylene films for packaging applications. New England Extrusions polyethylene films complement the high barrier, coextruded films American Plastics produces. By sharing their capabilities, the Company
expects that American Plastics and New England Extrusion will be able to expand their abilities to design and produce film products with customer-specified properties. Simultaneously with the acquisition, New England Extrusion became a guarantor
under the senior credit facility, the senior note indenture and senior subordinated note indenture. The purchase price for this acquisition, net of cash acquired, approximated $68.8 million including the assumption of certain liabilities. It was
financed with cash from operations supplemented with borrowings under the revolving credit portion of the Companys senior credit facility. The Company obtained an independent appraisal to allocate the purchase price to the acquired net assets.
All purchase price allocations have been made. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the acquired net assets has been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill of approximately $26.7 million was assigned to the Companys
performance packaging segment. New England Extrusion has been included in the Companys consolidated financial statements since the date of the acquisition.

3. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Effective December 30, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Under SFAS No. 142,
goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life will no longer be amortized; however, they must be tested for impairment annually. Amortization will continue to be recorded for other intangible assets with determinable lives. The changes in
the carrying amount of goodwill for the three-month period ended April 2, 2006 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

trademarks. Trademarks of $47.4 million related to carbonless paper and $8.9 million related to the Companys 2003 and 2005 acquisitions are being amortized over their estimated useful life of 20 years, while the remaining $24.2 million are
considered to have an indefinite life and, as such, are not subject to amortization. The remaining acquired intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 25 years for patents and customer relationships and
1 to 5 years for non-compete agreements. Amortization expense for the three months ended April 2, 2006 and April 3, 2005 approximated $2.4 million and $2.2 million, respectively.

4. RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

In order to position itself for long-term growth, the Company reduced salaried employment in the U.S. by 46 employees during fiscal 2003, 41 employees
during fiscal 2004 and 94 employees during fiscal 2005. During first quarter 2006, the Company reduced salaried employment in the U.S. by four employees. These reductions included positions at the corporate headquarters as well as the plant, mill
and acquisition sites. As a result, the Company took a charge of $0.2 million during first quarter 2006, $6.7 million in fiscal 2005, $3.0 million during fiscal 2004 and $2.6 million during fiscal 2003 for employment termination benefits. During the
first quarter of 2006, the Company paid out $1.6 million related to these employment termination benefits, liabilities for which were incurred in 2006 and prior. During fiscal 2005, the Company paid out $6.0 million related to these employment
termination benefits, liabilities for which were incurred in 2005, 2004 and 2003. See Note 15 for allocation of restructuring charges by segment.

During the third quarter of 2005, BemroseBooth announced it will exit the traditional printing and binding portions of its information products business. By the end of 2005, 54 jobs were eliminated. BemroseBooth also announced an
organizational restructuring to increase market focus, centralize its operating structure and position the company to pursue growth in print services. A $3.2 million charge was taken during 2005 for these restructurings.

In 1999, the Company committed to exiting its New York distribution center in 2001 because it was no longer needed as a result of the closure of the
Newton Falls mill and thus recorded $6.0 million of related restructuring and other charges expected to be incurred until the long-term lease expires in 2007. Based upon managements analysis, it is now anticipated that 2006 and 2007 sublease
income will be lower than originally estimated so an additional charge of $0.7 million was recorded in fiscal 2005. The $0.5 million use of the distribution center exit cost reserve represents first quarter 2006 lease payments, net of sublease
income.

The tables below summarize the components of the restructuring reserve included in the consolidated balance sheets at
April 2, 2006 and December 31, 2005 (dollars in thousands):

9. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs  an amendment of ARB
No. 43, Chapter 4. The standard adopts the view related to inventories that abnormal amounts of idle capacity and spoilage costs should be excluded from the cost of inventory and expensed when incurred. Additionally, the meaning of the
term normal capacity was clarified. The provisions of SFAS 151 are applicable to inventory costs incurred by Appleton beginning in 2006 and has not had a significant effect on the Companys financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets  an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. SFAS 153
is based on the principle that nonmonetary asset exchanges should be recorded and measured at the fair value of the assets exchanged, with certain exceptions. This standard requires exchanges of productive assets to be accounted for at fair value,
rather than at carryover basis, unless (1) neither the asset received nor the asset surrendered has a fair value that is determinable within reasonable limits or (2) the transactions lack commercial substance (as defined). This standard is
effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges made by Appleton beginning in 2006 and has not had a significant effect on the Companys financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment  an
amendment of FASB Statements No. 123 and 95. This statement requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award at the grant date
(with limited exceptions) and recognize the compensation cost over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. In March 2005, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, which expresses views of the SEC staff regarding the application of SFAS No. 123(R). Among other things, SAB 107 provides interpretive guidance related to the interaction
between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the SEC staffs views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) during the
first quarter of 2006 and it did not have a significant effect on its financial statements, given the nature of the Companys plans.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Lower Fox River

Various state and federal government agencies and Native American tribes have
asserted claims against Appleton and other parties with respect to historic discharges of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) into the Lower Fox River in Wisconsin.

Carbonless paper containing PCBs was manufactured at what is currently the Appleton plant from 1954 until 1971. Wastewater from the Appleton plant, a
paper mill in Combined Locks, Wisconsin, which the Company owned from 1978 to 2000 and is now owned by Appleton Coated LLC (an affiliate of Arjo Wiggins Appleton Limited (AWA)), and other local industrial facilities carried PCBs into the
Lower Fox River during this time period. As a result, there are allegedly eleven million cubic yards of PCB-contaminated sediment spread over 39 miles of the Lower Fox River and Green Bay, which is part of Lake Michigan.

In June 1997, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published notice that it intended to list the Lower Fox River on the
National Priorities List of Contaminated Sites pursuant to the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA or Superfund). The EPA identified seven potentially responsible parties
(PRPs) for PCB contamination in the Lower Fox River, including NCR and Appleton as the former and current owners and operators of the Appleton plant, and the owners of five paper reprocessing mills located on the Fox River, including
Georgia-Pacific, P.H. Glatfelter Company, WTM I Co., owned by Chesapeake Corporation, Riverside Paper Corporation and U.S. Paper Mills Corp., which is now owned by Sonoco Products Company.

On January 7, 2003, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) issued a
Record of Decision (ROD), with which the EPA concurred, on the first two segments of the river, which are largely upstream of the Appleton plant. Pursuant to a consent decree entered by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of
Wisconsin in early 2004, Glatfelter and WTM I are now managing remediation efforts in the first segment, with EPA and DNR oversight. Glatfelter and WTM I each contributed $25.2 million into an escrow account to cover the costs of the required
remedial action, with the EPA also contributing $10 million toward this work. It is Appletons position that neither Appleton nor NCR has any responsibility or liability for PCB contamination in the first segment of the Lower Fox River. On
July 28, 2003, the DNR and EPA issued a second ROD covering the third, fourth and fifth segments of the Lower Fox River (which includes Green Bay). Pursuant to a consent decree filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of
Wisconsin on April 12, 2006, NCR and Sonoco agreed to fund a defined remedial project in the fourth segment of the Lower Fox River at an estimated cost of $30 million. Appleton expects it will contribute to NCRs portion of this remedial
project, consistent with the 1998 interim settlement agreement and 2006 arbitration determination between Appleton and NCR, discussed below.

In the two RODs, the DNR estimates total costs for the Lower Fox River remedial action plan of approximately $400 million over a 7 to 18-year time period. Most of the estimated costs relate to the removal of large quantities of sediment
from the Lower Fox River by dredging, dewatering of the dredged materials, treatment of the dredge water and off-site disposal of the remaining solids. Engineers engaged by several of the PRPs have estimated that the cost of remediation work in the
Lower Fox River could be between $740 million and $1.6 billion. The DNR disputes this analysis. Appleton bases its cost estimates for remediation on the remedies adopted in the RODs.

In 2000, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) released a proposed restoration and compensation determination plan for restoring natural
resources injured by PCBs. The proposed plan estimates that natural resource damages (NRD) will fall in the range of $176 to $333 million for all PRPs in the aggregate. Over the past several years and at various natural resource damage
sites, the FWS and other government agencies have settled NRD claims for amounts substantially less than original estimates or claims. The Company bases its cost estimates for NRD claims on the FWS plan. However, based on the settlement amounts of
NRD claims to date, Appleton anticipates the actual costs for the PRPs to settle NRD claims will be less than $176 to $333 million.

Appleton purchased the Appleton plant and the Combined Locks paper mill from NCR in 1978, after the use of PCBs in the manufacturing process was discontinued. Nevertheless, pursuant to CERCLA, both Appleton and NCR are viewed by the EPA as
PRPs. Accordingly, Appleton and NCR asserted indemnity claims against each other pursuant to the terms of the agreement for the purchase of the assets of the business in 1978. In order to resolve indemnification obligations to each other, Appleton
entered into an interim settlement agreement with NCR in 1998 under which the parties agreed to share both defense and liability costs arising from the Lower Fox River. The parties indemnification obligations are currently defined by the 1998
interim settlement agreement. When the 1998 interim settlement agreement expires, the parties indemnification obligations will be defined by an arbitration determination that was obtained in January 2006.

A study performed by the FWS in 2000 provided a preliminary estimate of the amount of PCBs discharged
into the Lower Fox River by each PRP and concluded that the discharges from the Appleton plant and the Combined Locks paper mill (which is now owned by an affiliate of AWA) represented a percentage in the range of 36% to 52% of the total PCBs
discharged. These preliminary estimates have not been finalized by the FWS, may be revised and will not be binding on the PRPs. The final allocation of liability among the PRPs will be determined by negotiation, litigation or other dispute
resolution processes. Based on historical and technical analyses performed by environmental engineers Appleton has engaged, Appleton believes that the percentage of PCBs discharged from the Appleton and Combined Locks facilities is less than 20% of
the total discharged by all the PRPs. A portion of Appletons potential liability for the Lower Fox River may be joint and several. If, in the future, one or more of the other PRPs were to become insolvent or unable to pay their respective
share(s) of the potential liability, Appleton could be responsible for a portion of their share(s). Based on a review of publicly available financial information about the other PRPs, Appleton believes that the other PRPs will be required, and have
adequate financial resources, to pay their share of the remediation and natural resource damage claims for the Lower Fox River.

Appleton
entered into a consent decree in 2001 with NCR, the DNR, the Wisconsin Department of Justice, the EPA, the FWS, the U.S. Department of Justice, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the Oneida and Menomonee Indian Tribes, which
are collectively referred to as the intergovernmental partners, or IGP. Pursuant to the 2001 consent decree, which expired in 2005, Appleton and NCR collectively paid $41.5 million for interim restoration and remediation efforts directed by the IGP.
Under the consent decree, the IGP agreed not to sue or take administrative action against Appleton and NCR during the four-year period.

In
January 2006, Appleton and NCR entered into a modified and partially extended consent decree with the IGP. Pursuant to the 2006 consent decree, Appleton and NCR agreed to collectively provide up to $5 million over a period of one year for interim
restoration efforts directed by the IGP. In addition, Appleton and NCR agreed to collectively provide up to $1 million toward the preparation of a Restoration Progress Report analyzing the progress toward the restoration goals related to the Lower
Fox River. Under the 2006 consent decree, the IGP agreed not to sue or take administrative action against Appleton or NCR during the one-year period.

Neither the 2001 consent decree nor the 2006 consent decree constitutes a final settlement with the IGP or provides protection against future claims against Appleton and NCR. However, Appleton and NCR will receive
full credit against remediation costs and NRD claims for all monies expended under the consent decrees.

A precise estimate of
Appletons ultimate share of remediation and natural resource damage liability cannot be made at this time due to uncertainties with respect to: the scope and cost of implementing the final remediation plan; the scope of restoration and final
valuation of NRD assessments; the evolving nature of remediation and restoration technologies and governmental policies; and Appletons share of liability relative to the other PRPs. However, the issuance of the RODs and the beginning of
remediation activities provides Appleton the ability to reasonably estimate its potential liability. Accordingly, Appleton has recorded a reserve for this environmental liability. At December 31, 2005 this reserve approximated $96.0 million.
During first quarter 2006, $2.5 million of payments were made against this reserve and, as a result, $93.5 million is remaining in the reserve as of April 2, 2006; $13.7 million is recorded in other accrued liabilities and $79.8 million is
recorded as a long-term environmental liability.

As part of the November 9, 2001 acquisition, AWA agreed to indemnify Appleton for the first $75
million and for all amounts over $100 million in liabilities relating to the Lower Fox River. At December 31, 2005, the total indemnification receivable from AWA was $71.0 million. During first quarter 2006, $2.5 million of indemnification
payments were received from AWA and, as a result, $68.5 million is remaining as the indemnification receivable; $13.7 million in other current assets and $54.8 million in environmental indemnification receivable. The $25.0 million difference between
the reserve and the indemnification receivable represents the share of Lower Fox River costs for which Appleton is responsible. A $21.0 million charge was recorded against earnings in 2002 and accreted to $25.0 million through the end of fiscal
2005. This discounted share originally was calculated using a discount rate of 6.0%.

receivable/environmental liability is provided below (dollars in thousands):

Appleton used the estimates described below, including the government agency estimates, in evaluating
its total Lower Fox River environmental liability and establishing its environmental liability reserves: (1) total costs for remediation of $480 million, based on the DNRs estimate of $400 million in total costs for remediation, plus a
20% contingency; (2) the FWS preliminary estimate that discharges from the Appleton plant and the Combined Locks mill represent 36% to 52% of the total PCBs discharged by the PRPs, which is substantially greater than Appletons estimate
(Appleton assumes that Appleton and NCR are primarily responsible for only the discharges from the Appleton and Combined Locks facilities and not for discharges from other sources as alleged by other PRPs); (3) costs to settle NRD claims
against Appleton and NCR, estimated at $20 million or less based on the IGPs settlement of other NRD claims; (4) Appletons responsibility for over half of the claims asserted against Appleton and NCR, based on the interim settlement
agreement with NCR and the arbitration determination; and (5) $20 million in fees and expenses. Because of the numerous uncertainties underlying these estimates, it is possible that Appletons share of costs could be higher.

West Carrollton Mill

The West Carrollton mill
operates pursuant to various state and federal permits for discharges and emissions to air and water. As a result of the de-inking of carbonless paper containing PCBs through the early 1970s, there have been releases of PCBs and volatile organic
compounds into the soil in the area of the wastewater impoundments at the West Carrollton facility and low levels of PCBs have been detected in groundwater immediately under this area. In addition, PCB contamination is present in sediment in the
adjacent Great Miami River, but it is believed that this contamination is from a source other than the West Carrollton mill.

Based on
investigation and delineation of PCB contamination in soil and groundwater in the area of the wastewater impoundments, Appleton believes that it could be necessary to undertake remedial action in the future, although Appleton is currently under no
obligation to do so. Appleton has not had any discussions or communications with any federal, state or local agencies or authorities regarding remedial action to address PCB contamination at the West Carrollton mill. Remedial action to address PCB
contamination in the area of the wastewater impoundments could involve construction of a cap to prevent exposure to PCBs. In addition, remedial action could involve long-term monitoring of groundwater or the construction and operation of a
groundwater pump-and-treat system to prevent migration of PCB contamination in groundwater, and the removal and disposal of PCB-contaminated sediment in the Great Miami River. The cost for remedial actionincluding installation of a cap,
long-term pumping, treating and/or monitoring of groundwater and removal of sediment in the Great Miami Riverwas estimated in 2001 to range up to approximately $10.5 million, with approximately $3 million in short-term costs and the remainder
to be incurred over a period of 30 years. However, costs could exceed this amount if additional contamination is discovered, if additional remedial action is necessary or if the remedial action costs are more than expected.

Because of the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate course of action for the West Carrollton mill property, the Great Miami River remediation and
Appletons share of these remediation costs, if any, no provision has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements for estimated remediation costs. In conjunction with the acquisition of the Company by the ESOP in 2001, and as limited
by the terms of the purchase agreement, AWA agreed to indemnify the Company for 50% of all environmental liabilities at the West Carrollton mill up to $5.0 million and 100% of all such environmental costs exceeding $5.0 million. In addition, the
former owners and operators of the West Carrollton mill may be liable for all or part of the cost of remediation of historic PCB contamination.

In addition, in April 2005, eleven local residents who allegedly live (or have lived) near the
wastewater treatment plant of the mill and two former mill employees (and one of their spouses) filed lawsuits in Montgomery County, Ohio court, alleging that Appleton released and continues to release hazardous substances from the mill, including
PCBs, dioxins and fluorochemicals, which allegedly caused injury to the plaintiffs and/or damage to their property. The lawsuits have been removed to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. The local resident plaintiffs
have requested that the court certify the matter as a class action. The plaintiffs are seeking compensatory and punitive damages, remediation and other relief. The lawsuit commenced by the two former mill employees has been dismissed without
prejudice. The claims of the local resident plaintiffs remain pending.

Other than the PCB contamination in the area of the wastewater
impoundments, there are no other known material liabilities with respect to environmental issues at the West Carrollton mill.

Other

From time to time, Appleton may be involved in various demands, claims, suits or other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. A
comprehensive insurance program is maintained to provide a measure of financial protection against such matters, though not all such exposures are, or can be, addressed by insurance. Estimated costs are recorded for such demands, claims, suits or
proceedings of this nature when reasonably determinable. For example, from time to time over the past 25 years, Appleton has been involved in product liability claims relating to its carbonless copy paper products. The Company has successfully
defended such claims, settling some for amounts which are not material to the business and obtaining dismissals in others based on various arguments, including, in certain cases, that the plaintiffs alleged proof that carbonless paper causes
injury was based on junk science. While the Company vigorously defends itself and expects to prevail in any similar cases that may be brought against Appleton in the future, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful
in its defense.

Other than the Lower Fox River matter described above, and unless the Companys expectations regarding defending
product or other liability matters prove to be wrong, Appleton does not believe that any pending or threatened demands, claims, suits or other legal proceedings will have, individually or in the aggregate, a materially adverse effect on its
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

13. EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

The Appleton Papers Retirement Savings and Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the KSOP) includes a separate employee stock ownership plan
component (the ESOP). The KSOP is a tax-qualified retirement plan that also contains a 401(k) feature, which provides participants with the ability to make pre-tax contributions to the KSOP by electing to defer a percentage of their
compensation. The ESOP is a tax-qualified employee stock ownership plan that is designed to invest primarily in the common stock of PDC.

Eligible participants, as named fiduciaries under ERISA, were offered a one-time
irrevocable election to acquire a beneficial interest in the common stock of PDC by electing to direct the transfer of all or a portion of their existing account balances in the KSOP and the 401(a) plan (Appleton Papers Inc. Retirement Medical
Savings Plan) to the Company Stock Fund. The total proceeds transferred by eligible participants to the Company Stock Fund were approximately $106.8 million. All proceeds of the offering were used by the ESOP trustee to purchase 10,684,373 shares of
PDC common stock. As a result of this purchase, the ESOP owns 100% of the common stock of PDC. The ESOP trustee is expected to purchase common stock from PDC with future pre-tax deferrals made by employees. The Company also intends to fund a
significant part of its matching contribution commitment with common stock of PDC.

The value of each participants account balance
will be paid to that participant, or that participants beneficiary, in the case of the participants death, upon the participants retirement, death, disability, resignation, dismissal or permanent layoff. Requests for lump sum
distributions from the Company Stock Fund will be granted in accordance with a uniform, nondiscriminatory policy established by the ESOP committee. Covenants in the agreements providing for the senior credit facility, the 8.125% Senior Notes due
2011 and the 9.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 restrict Appletons ability to pay dividends to PDC, which could limit PDCs ability to repurchase shares distributed to ESOP participants who have terminated employment or who are
entitled to diversification rights. PDC has obligations to make distributions to former participants in the ESOP under ERISA and these obligations may conflict with the terms of the senior credit and note agreements. During 2005 and 2006, Appleton
exercised its right to satisfy requests for distributions to former participants using five equal annual installments.

Appletons
matching contributions charged to expense amounted to $2.1 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended April 2, 2006 and April 3, 2005, respectively. The $2.1 million matching contribution will be made to the Company Stock Fund
upon receipt of the corresponding employee deferrals to be received from the ESOP trustee at the end of second quarter 2006. As a result of hardship withdrawals, 476 shares of PDC redeemable common stock were repurchased during the first three
months of 2006 at an aggregate price of $14,000.

In accordance with the FASBs Emerging Issues Task Force Topic D-98, redeemable equity
securities are required to be accreted so the amount in the balance sheet reflects the estimated amount redeemable at the earliest redemption date based upon the redemption value at each period end. Redeemable common stock is being accreted up to
the earliest redemption date based upon the estimated fair market value of the redeemable common stock as of April 2, 2006. The earliest redemption date occurs when the holder reaches 55 years of age and has 10 years of participation in the
KSOP. At that point, the holder has the right to make diversification elections for a period of six years. The Company accreted the redeemable common stock by $3.0 million for the three months ended April 2, 2006. Based upon the estimated fair
value of the redeemable common stock, an ultimate redemption liability of approximately $345 million was determined. The redeemable common stock recorded book value as of April 2, 2006 was $188 million, which leaves a remaining unrecognized
liability to be accreted of approximately $157 million. The fair value of the redeemable common stock is determined by an independent, third-party appraiser selected by State Street Global Advisors, the ESOP Trustee, as required by law and the ESOP.
Such valuations are made as of June 30 and December 31. Until the independent valuation is received, the fair value of the stock is estimated by management. The interim estimates as of the first and third quarter of each year may differ
from the values determined by the appraiser as of June 30 and December 31. Adjustments, if any, as of the first quarter and third quarter of each year, will be recorded when the independent valuation is received. The accretion is being
charged to retained earnings as redeemable common stock is the only class of shares outstanding.

The senior credit facility is unconditionally guaranteed by Paperweight Development Corp. and by
substantially all of Appletons subsidiaries, other than certain immaterial subsidiaries. In addition, it is secured by liens on substantially all of Appletons, the subsidiary guarantors and certain of Appletons other
subsidiaries assets and by a pledge of Appletons and its subsidiaries capital stock. The senior notes and senior subordinated notes are unconditionally guaranteed by PDC, C&H Packaging Company, Inc., American Plastics Company,
Inc., Rose Holdings Limited, Bemrose Group Limited, The Henry Booth Group Limited, BemroseBooth Limited, HBGI Holdings Limited, Bemrose Security & Promotional Printing Limited and New England Extrusion Inc. (see Note 16 Guarantor
Financial Information).

The senior credit facility, senior notes and 9.75% senior subordinated notes contain affirmative and
negative covenants. In general, the covenants contained in the senior credit facility are more restrictive than those of the senior notes and 9.75% senior subordinated notes. Among other restrictions, the covenants contained in the senior credit
facility require Appleton to meet specified financial tests, including leverage and interest and fixed charge coverage ratios, which become more restrictive over the term of the debt.

The senior credit facility, senior notes and 9.75% senior subordinated notes also contain covenants, which, among other things, restrict Appletons
ability and the ability of Appletons other guarantors of the senior credit facility, senior notes and 9.75% senior subordinated notes to incur liens; engage in transactions with affiliates; incur additional indebtedness; declare dividends or
redeem or repurchase capital stock; make loans and investments; engage in mergers, acquisitions, consolidations and asset sales; acquire assets, stock or debt securities of any person; make capital expenditures; terminate the S corporation status of
PDC or the qualified subchapter S subsidiary status of its subsidiaries eligible to elect such status; amend its debt instruments; amend or terminate the ESOP; and amend other agreements related to the acquisition.

Appleton has determined that in the second fiscal quarter of 2006, payments for stock redemptions will total approximately $16 million, approximately
$5.8 million of which will be installment payments. Even though Appleton expects that it will convert all eligible redemption payments to an installment basis, it appears that the total payments for stock redemptions will exceed the covenant
limitations established by Appletons senior note and senior subordinated note indentures. Accordingly, Appleton is currently talking with its financial and legal advisors regarding the impact of the projected stock redemption payments on the
restrictive covenants of the indentures and exploring the appropriate course of action required to enable Appleton to make the projected payments in compliance with the covenants. Defaults on any of the indebtedness could result in acceleration of
the indebtedness and cause Appleton to dispose of its assets or declare bankruptcy and, as a result, Appleton may not have sufficient funds to satisfy its obligations under the senior notes and senior subordinated notes.

During the first quarter of 2006, Appleton made a $5.6 million excess cash flow payment, plus interest, and a $587,000 mandatory debt payment, plus
interest, on the senior credit facility. Effective March 21, 2006, Appleton fixed the interest rate, at 7.16%, on $100.0 million of its variable rate notes with a three-year interest rate swap contract. Also during the quarter, Appleton repaid
the entire $2.0 million outstanding on the revolving line of credit.

At April 2, 2006, there was approximately $107.4 million of
unused borrowing capacity under the $125 million revolving credit facility for working capital and other corporate purposes. Approximately $17.6 million of the revolving credit facility was used to support outstanding letters of credit. A commitment
fee of 0.5% per annum is assessed on the unused borrowing capacity.

The six-month LIBOR rate at April 2, 2006 was 5.1%.

The senior subordinated notes due in 2008 and the senior subordinated notes due 2014 are unsecured obligations of Appleton, ranking subordinate in right
of payment to all senior debt of Appleton, and are unconditionally, jointly and severally guaranteed by PDC, C&H Packaging Company, Inc., American Plastics Company, Inc., Rose Holdings Limited, Bemrose Group Limited, The Henry Booth Group
Limited, BemroseBooth Limited, HBGI Holdings Limited, Bemrose Security & Promotional Limited and New England Extrusion Inc. (see Note 16 Guarantor Financial Information). Interest on the senior subordinated notes is payable
semi-annually in June and December of each year.

The senior subordinated notes due in 2008 were not redeemable at Appletons option
prior to December 15, 2005. By the terms of these notes, on or after December 15, 2005, Appleton may redeem during the 12-month period beginning on December 15 of the applicable year all or a part of the senior subordinated notes at
the redemption prices of 106.25% in 2005, 103.125% in 2006 and 100% in 2007 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any. By the terms of the senior notes, however, such redemption cannot take place, as the senior
note indenture precludes Appleton from retiring any subordinated debt other than at its maturity.

15. SEGMENT INFORMATION

In late 2005, as a result of organizational and management reporting changes, the Company determined it now has five reportable segments. The financial
information concerning the Companys reportable segments for reported prior periods has been revised to reflect these new reportable segments. The Companys five reportable segments are as follows: coated solutions, thermal papers,
security papers, secure and specialized print services and performance packaging. Management evaluates the performance of the segments based primarily on operating income. Items excluded from the determination of segment operating income are
unallocated corporate charges, business development costs not associated with specific segments, interest income, interest expense, debt extinguishment expenses and foreign currency gains and losses.

The coated solutions segment includes carbonless paper. Carbonless paper is used to make multipart business forms such as invoices and credit card
receipts. As part of its coated solutions segment, the Company produces coated products for point-of-sale displays and other design and print applications. The Company also offers customers custom coating solutions and the potential for strategic
partnerships through its engineered manufacturing solutions, or toll coating, program. This program focuses on the Companys ability to apply barrier and/or printable coatings to substrates. The Company supplies coated solutions products to
paper merchants, business forms printers and paper converters primarily in North America.

The thermal papers segment focuses on the
development of substrates for the transaction and item identification markets. These products are widely used for point-of-sale receipts and coupons; entertainment and transportation tickets; lottery and gaming tickets; engineering, medical and
industrial charts; tags for airline baggage and retail applications; and label products for shipping, warehousing, medical and clean-room applications. The Company supplies thermal products primarily to printers and paper converters in North
America.

The security papers segment produces products with basic security features that make them resistant
to forgery and counterfeiting. From that foundation Appleton is building a portfolio of products that incorporate security technologies including watermarks, taggants, embedded threads and fibers and machine-readable technologies to serve global
markets. The focus of the security papers segment is on checks and business and government documents.

The secure and specialized print
services segment includes BemroseBooth. BemroseBooth is located in England and was acquired by Appleton in December 2003 to gain greater access to international security product markets. BemroseBooth provides business-critical products with security
features and specialized print management services to the transactional services, secure logistics and promotional products markets. BemroseBooths products include security-printed vouchers and payment cards, mass transit and car parking
tickets, variable data labeling, high-integrity mailing and printed calendars. The company also offers print management services, such as creative design, product sourcing and stock and logistics management, through a network of external suppliers.

The Company entered the performance packaging market in 2003 by acquiring two Wisconsin-based companies that produce high-quality, custom
multilayered films and commercial packaging and print and convert flexible plastic packaging materials for companies in the food processing, household and industrial products industries. In January 2005, the Company acquired New England Extrusion
(Turners Falls, Massachusetts, and Milton, Wisconsin), a company that produces single and multilayer polyethylene films for packaging applications.

liquidity of Paperweight Development Corp. (the Company or Paperweight Development) and Appleton Papers Inc. (Appleton) for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2006. This discussion should be read in
conjunction with the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes.

In April 2005, Appleton appointed a new
chief executive officer, Mark R. Richards, to succeed Douglas P. Buth. In the months immediately following Mr. Richards appointment, he and the senior management team defined and communicated a new vision statement for Appleton to refocus
the company on its core businesses in technical papers and performance packaging as well as place a greater emphasis on growing international markets. The vision statement reads as follows:

We will use market insight to be better than anyone else at providing technically advanced papers, films and services for communication and packaging that
ensure quality, security and convenience for businesses around the world. We expect to consistently deliver on this promise because we are passionate in learning about and serving our customers, committed to operational excellence and dedicated to
sustainable growth.

To align the company and promote accountability, Appleton put in place four strategic platforms: Customer Focused
Quality, Operational Excellence, Growth and People Development and Diversity.



| |  |  | Customer Focused Quality. CFQ means we are passionate in learning about and consistently meeting the needs of our customers in each segment of our businesses. The CFQ
platform is all about using market insight to offer products and services that exceed customer expectations. CFQ includes placing our customers into meaningful segments so that we can deliver the right balance of product quality, service and price
with the highest level of efficiency.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Operational Excellence. The Operational Excellence platform ensures that we consistently deliver value to both our customers and shareholders. Operational Excellence
is a discipline focused on four critical operational components: safety, environment, quality and productivity. Our emphasis on employee safety demonstrates that we highly value our people. The attention to detail required to achieve employee safety
leads to excellence in all aspects of the company. Further, we respect the communities in which we have operations and are implementing environmental initiatives, such as complying with the standards of ISO 14001, to promote the continuous
improvement of our environmental standards at all Appleton sites. Quality is all about process control and the discipline to do things right the first time. Productivity is a commitment to eliminate waste from processes using tools such as lean
manufacturing and Six Sigma. These tools are data-driven, methodical programs of continuous improvement designed to eliminate waste, reduce process variation and eliminate costs throughout the company, including in administrative areas.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Growth. The Growth platform is all about identifying new business opportunities that leverage our existing products, markets and core competencies. Market insight into
customer needs will drive our investment decisions for growth. The extent of our analysis and validation of customer needs will increase in proportion to the amount of money we invest in any one development effort. Our acquisition strategy will also
closely align with this criterion. Future acquisitions must leverage one or more of our core competencies and extend our business into known markets or products.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | People Development and Diversity. We established a People Development and Diversity platform to ensure ongoing and systematic development of our future leaders. If
people do not grow, the company will not grow. To achieve our people development goals, we will perform annual leadership and management assessments and define management and technical career tracks. In addition, we are establishing a series of
diversity and employee development initiatives aimed at improving organizational and individual employee performance. Leadership development not only drives our business, but also the culture that supports our business. The ability to attract,
retain and develop a diverse talent pool is critical to our future success. Appleton is committed to hiring the best and brightest people capable of contributing diverse thoughts and ideas to improve business decision making.

In late 2005, Appleton announced a restructuring of the company to improve its market focus, streamline the organizational
structure, reduce costs and position the company to pursue international growth opportunities. Appleton restructured its operations into three primary businesses to improve the companys market focus: 1) technical papers, which includes the
coated solutions, thermal papers and security papers segments for the U.S. and Canada, 2) international papers, including secure and specialized print services and 3) performance packaging.

Appleton also realigned the management structure of the company into the following three management
divisions to streamline its organizational structure and reduce operating costs: technical papers, performance packaging and international. Specifically, the technical papers division includes the coated solutions, thermal papers and security papers
segments and is focused primarily on the U.S. and Canadian markets. The performance packaging division includes the three performance packaging subsidiaries: American Plastics Company, Inc. (American Plastics) and New England Extrusion
Inc. (New England Extrusion), both manufacturers of plastic film products, and C&H Packaging Company, Inc. (C&H Packaging), a printer and converter of flexible plastic packaging materials. The international division
includes Appletons British subsidiary, BemroseBooth Limited (BemroseBooth), as well as a sales and marketing team focused on increasing international sales of Appletons various products outside the U.S. and Canada. The
realignment of Appletons management structure is consistent with its new vision and promotes management accountability by aligning all divisional resources under a division general manager and providing them clear growth and profitability
objectives.

Each division is, or will be, headed by an executive who is responsible for managing all aspects of the operations and sales
within the division. Appleton has recently appointed three new members to its divisional leadership team, Walter M. Schonfeld, M. Kathleen Bolhous and Sarah T. Macdonald, who will manage the technical papers division, the performance packaging
division and the international division, respectively. Mr. Schonfelds appointment was announced in early May 2006 and he is expected to join Appleton on or about May 15, 2006. Appleton has also appointed two new members to its senior
management team: Kent E. Willetts, Vice President of Marketing and Strategy, and Angela M. Tyczkowski, Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel.

Appleton creates product solutions for customers and end users through its development and use of coating formulations and applications as well as encapsulation, security, printing and packaging technologies. Appleton
has five reportable business segments: coated solutions, thermal papers, security papers, secure and specialized print services and performance packaging. Note 15 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflects the performance of
these five segments.

Appletons coated solutions segment, which includes carbonless paper products, is the largest component of its
technical papers business. The U.S. carbonless market has been in decline since 1994. Appleton believes the carbonless market is declining as users switch to alternative modes of communication and technologies that do not use impact printing to
create images. Based on its assessment, Appleton believes the compound annual rate of decline in the U.S. carbonless market from 1994 to 1999 approximated 4%. On the same basis, it is estimated that the U.S. carbonless paper market declined by
approximately 10% in 2000 and by approximately 8% annually from 2001 through 2004, and will decline over the next five years at rates comparable to historical levels. Appleton believes the worldwide carbonless market is also in decline, with demand
declining at approximately 2% to 3% per year. The coated solutions segment accounted for approximately 56% of total net sales in fiscal 2005.

In addition to the declining U.S. and foreign carbonless markets, Appletons carbonless business continues to experience the impact of competitive pricing by both foreign and domestic producers. Other domestic carbonless producers,
wanting to maintain or increase their market share, have continued their competitive pricing strategies. In addition, foreign competitors, who serve approximately 8% of the U.S. carbonless market, continue with their aggressive, low-price strategy
to sell into the U.S. carbonless market, which also leads to a reduction in net selling prices. As a result of this increased pricing competition in recent years, Appleton has continued to experience pressure on its overall carbonless selling
prices. However, based upon the escalation in raw material and other manufacturing costs, Appleton implemented two price increases during fiscal 2005. During the fourth quarter of 2004, Appleton announced a price increase for both rolls and sheets
in the domestic and international markets. This increase took effect in the first quarter of 2005. A further price increase took effect in August of 2005 for domestic carbonless sheets and for domestic and Canadian carbonless roll products.

The U.S. and Canadian thermal market experienced strong growth during the 1990s and is expected to continue growing as the advantages of
thermal printing systems become more widely recognized. These advantages include their competitive cost, quiet operation, cleanliness, speed, high print quality, reliability, portability and their use of a single consumable (thermal paper) versus
other printing systems, which require paper and ink or toner cartridges. Based on Appletons assessment, it is estimated that the annual rate of growth in the U.S. and Canadian thermal market from 1996 to 2005 averaged 7% for the period. Based
on its assessment, Appleton believes the U.S. and Canadian thermal market will continue to grow at a compound annual rate of more than 3% between 2006 and 2010. Appleton also believes the global market for thermal products will grow at approximately
7% between 2006 and 2010.

Appleton has also continued to experience the impact of competitive pricing in most market channels and product
lines within its thermal papers segment from both foreign and domestic producers. However, Appleton was able to implement a modest price increase in its point-of-sale, label and tag product lines in the second quarter of 2005. Appleton also
implemented a price increase across its full range of point-of-sale products and for certain ticket grades in the first quarter of 2006.

Over the past few years, Appletons management team has developed and implemented growth strategies
to offset the declining nature of the U.S. and foreign carbonless markets and the resulting impact on revenue and operating income. Strategies for growth include strengthening and expanding Appletons presence in certain growing market segments
and broadening its product offerings through internal research and development initiatives and acquisitions. In April 2003, Appleton entered the performance packaging market through its acquisition of C&H Packaging and American Plastics.
Appleton added its secure and specialized print services business through the acquisition of BemroseBooth in December 2003. In January 2005, Appleton added to its performance packaging business with its acquisition of New England Extrusion. Appleton
has evaluated, and will continue to evaluate, opportunities to acquire other companies that will help it achieve its business strategies.

Financial
Overview

With our new vision and a new management structure in place, including the addition of several new members to the senior
management team, and with most of the 2005 restructuring initiatives behind us, Appleton has begun to realize the expected benefits of its 2005 restructuring initiatives, which are reflected in the first quarter 2006 results. Net sales for the first
quarter of fiscal 2006 totaled $268.9 million, compared to $253.0 million for the first quarter of 2005. Net sales increased from the prior year period in four of the companys five reportable segments: thermal papers, security papers, secure
and specialized print services and performance packaging. The key contributing factors for the increase in net sales in the first fiscal quarter of 2006 for these four segments were increased sales volumes, improved pricing and improved product mix.
Only the coated solutions segment experienced a decline in net sales from first quarter 2005 levels, decreasing by 2.8%, which was primarily due to a decrease in shipment volumes to the domestic and Canadian carbonless markets.

Appleton reported net income of $5.6 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2006 versus a $4.3 million net loss in the first quarter of 2005. Key
factors in this turnaround include higher net sales in four of the five reportable segments, improved pricing, greater operating efficiencies, reduced selling, general and administrative expenses and a reduction in restructuring charges. All of the
companys five reportable segments reported an increase in operating income in the first fiscal quarter of 2006 when compared to the first fiscal quarter of 2005, including the coated solutions segment, despite the decline in its net sales.

Recent Acquisitions.On January 11, 2005, Appleton acquired substantially all of the assets of New England Extrusion, Inc., a
privately-held company with its headquarters and a production facility in Turners Falls, Massachusetts, and an additional production facility in Milton, Wisconsin. The purchase price for this acquisition, net of cash acquired, approximated $68.8
million, including the assumption of certain liabilities. New England Extrusion specializes in the manufacture of single and multilayer polyethylene films for packaging applications and sells its high performance films to converters and select end
users in the United States and Canada who laminate, print, coat or convert films for flexible packaging applications involving food, personal care, medical and industrial products. The financial results for New England Extrusion have been included
in the companys consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Restructuring and Other Charges. Due to the
decline in Appletons carbonless business, management reviewed salaried staffing requirements in fiscal 2003. As a result of these management reviews, a salaried workforce reduction initiative was implemented in fiscal 2003. Appleton has
continued to assess its staffing requirements for its headquarters operations and for its plants and mills and further reductions occurred throughout fiscal 2004. In late fiscal 2005, Appleton announced plans to restructure its business in order to
improve its market focus, create a more streamlined organization, reduce costs and better position the company to pursue international growth opportunities. In fiscal 2005, Appleton recorded a $10.6 million charge for the restructuring of its U.S.
business operations and its British subsidiary, BemroseBooth. During fiscal 2005, Appleton eliminated 94 positions as a result of restructuring its U.S. business. BemroseBooth announced in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 its exit from the
traditional printing and binding portions of its information products business and, by the end of fiscal 2005, eliminated 54 positions. Separately, BemroseBooth also announced an organizational restructuring to increase market focus, centralize its
operating structure and position BemroseBooth to pursue growth in print services. See Note 4 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the effects of the restructuring.

Effects of Inflation. The cost for certain of Appletons raw materials, including base stock, chemicals and pulp, as well as the cost for
energy, including natural gas, oil and electricity, has generally been subject to price changes and can have a material effect on Appletons business, financial condition and results of operations. The costs for certain raw materials and energy
increased during fiscal 2005 and into the first quarter of fiscal 2006 and are expected to continue to increase. However, during fiscal 2005 and through the first quarter of fiscal 2006, we believe that the effects of general inflation have not been
material to our business, financial condition or results of operations. Through price increases, Appleton has historically been able to pass on at least a portion of the increases in the cost of its raw materials to its customers. Appleton must rely
on cost-cutting measures and productivity and efficiency gains to offset the remaining portion of these cost increases. While Appleton expects that any significant increase in raw materials or energy will be offset by price increases to its
customers and/or by its cost containment, productivity and efficiency initiatives, should Appleton be unable to pass on or mitigate any future price increases, its profitability could be impacted.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three-Month Periods Ended April 2, 2006 and April 3, 2005

Net Sales. Net sales for the three months ended April 2, 2006 were $268.9 million, an increase of $15.9 million, or 6.3%,
compared to the prior year period, as all segments other than coated solutions reported increased net sales in the first fiscal quarter of 2006. Coated solutions segment net sales totaled $147.5 million, a decrease of approximately $4.3 million, or
2.8%, from prior year levels, primarily due to lower shipment volumes of carbonless products as a result of a decline in the demand for carbonless products in both the U.S. and Canadian markets. Carbonless shipment volumes decreased 2.5% from the
first quarter of fiscal 2005. Although international shipment volumes in the first fiscal quarter of 2006 increased by 33% from the first fiscal quarter of 2005, declines in shipment volumes in both the U.S. and Canadian markets more than offset the
growth in international shipments. Across all grades and market channels, average carbonless net selling prices were up modestly from the first quarter of 2005. This reflects the price increases implemented by Appleton in the first and third
quarters of 2005, partially offset by the unfavorable product mix effects of a further increase in the proportion of products sold into international markets where average prices are somewhat lower than in the U.S. and Canadian markets. Thermal
papers segment net sales were $62.6 million, an increase of $11.7 million, or 22.9%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a 23.3% volume increase. Thermal paper shipment volumes were higher than the first quarter of fiscal 2005 in the
domestic, Canadian and international markets and year-on-year increases were experienced in all major product lines. Label, tag and ticket and gaming/lottery grades showed the greatest growth, in excess of 40%, versus the prior years first
fiscal quarter. Average net selling prices per ton improved as a result of the modest price increases implemented in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 for point-of-sale, label and tag products. Security papers segment net sales were $7.4 million in
the first quarter of fiscal 2006, an increase of $0.9 million, or 13.3%, from the first quarter of the prior year. Shipment volumes of security papers increased 16.9% from the first quarter of 2005 due to increases in all major markets. Secure and
specialized print services segment net sales, represented by BemroseBooth, were $22.5 million and increased by $1.9 million, or 9.3%, from 2005 first quarter levels. The increase in net sales relative to the first quarter of 2005 was experienced
across all manufacturing facilities and was concentrated primarily in the transactional mailing, security paper, continuous format phone card and U.K. government tax stamp product lines. Performance packaging segment net sales totaled $28.9 million
in the first fiscal quarter of 2006, increasing $5.7 million, or 24.8%, over the first quarter of 2005. First quarter 2006 net sales by American Plastics and New England Extrusion, the film manufacturers, combined increased more than $5 million from
the first quarter of 2005. Factors in this increase included improved pricing, due to price increases implemented in the fourth quarter of 2005; increased shipment volumes, due to increased sales to new customers acquired in 2005; and a full quarter
of sales by New England Extrusion in 2006, whereas 2005 first quarter sales were only recognized from January 11 through the quarter-end.

Gross Profit.Gross profit was $66.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, an increase of $4.1 million, or 6.5%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was due to year-on-year increases in gross profit reported by
the thermal papers, security papers, secure and specialized print services and performance packaging segments, partially offset by a decline in gross profit in the coated solutions segment. Coated solutions segment gross profit for the first quarter
of fiscal 2006 decreased by $1.2 million compared to the same period in fiscal 2005, due primarily to lower shipment volumes. The thermal papers segment contributed $2.5 million more gross profit dollars in the first quarter of 2006 than in the
first quarter of 2005 due to increased sales volumes, improved product sales mix and better operating efficiencies. Gross profit in the security papers segment increased by $1.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, also due to increased
sales volumes and improved margins. In the secure and specialized print services segment, gross profit increased by $0.4 million from the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to the first quarter of fiscal 2006 due to increased sales volumes and improved
utilization of manufacturing capacity. Gross profit in the performance packaging segment increased by $0.8 million over the first quarter of fiscal 2005. Within this segment, both of the film manufacturers, American Plastics and New England
Extrusion, recorded increases in gross profit on higher net sales versus the first quarter of 2005, partially offset by unfavorable product mix factors, while C&H Packaging experienced a modest decline due to increases in certain manufacturing
costs. Total company gross profit margin was 24.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 as well as for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 with pricing, sales mix factors and cost containment efforts offsetting the effects of inflation on raw material
and utility costs.

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of
fiscal 2006 were $48.7 million, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 5.4%, compared to the prior year period, due primarily to a reduction in research and development expenditures and staffing reductions resulting from the ongoing restructuring efforts.
Distribution costs for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by $1.2 million, or 7.6%, compared to the prior year period due to the increased thermal and security papers shipment volumes and increased fuel costs in the technical papers and
performance packaging divisions. Central headquarters costs decreased $3.3 million, or 10.4%, from first quarter 2005 levels due to reduced research and development spending and a realization of the 2005 staffing reductions. Though research and
development spending decreased from first quarter 2005 levels, Appleton is more sharply focusing its research and development on projects that leverage Appletons core competencies, its existing products or its market presence. Amortization
expense increased by $0.2 million from the prior year period due to the recognition of purchase accounting adjustments related to the New England Extrusion acquisition. Within fiscal 2006 selling, general and administrative expenses, Appleton
recorded $1.0 million of income related to insurance recoveries for operating costs associated with a legal matter.

Restructuring and Other Charges. During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, Appleton recognized
employee termination costs of $0.2 million versus $3.5 million in the comparable 2005 period. The 2005 first quarter results reflected the cost of staffing reductions at Appletons headquarters operations and voluntary severance packages
offered to eligible union employees at Appletons Roaring Spring and West Carrollton paper mills.

Operating Income. Operating
income for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was $17.3 million, an increase of $10.1 million, or 139%, compared to the prior year period. Operating income as a percentage of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was 6.4% as compared to 2.9%
of net sales for the prior year period. Coated solutions segment operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased $2.4 million compared to the prior year period, primarily due to improved pricing, operating efficiencies, lower
selling, general and administrative expenses and reduced restructuring charges. Thermal papers segment operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased $2.2 million compared to the prior year period due to increased sales volumes,
improved product sales mix and improved operating efficiencies. Appletons security papers segment reported operating income of $0.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 versus an operating loss of $0.8 million in the first quarter of
2005. Increased sales volumes, improved pricing, improved product mix and operating efficiencies were all significant contributing factors. The secure and specialized print services segment reported an operating loss of $0.6 million for the first
fiscal quarter of 2006, a $1.4 million improvement from the $2.0 million operating loss in the first quarter of 2005, which came about as a result of increased sales volumes, improved manufacturing capacity utilization and various cost reduction
initiatives. The performance packaging segments operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by $0.6 million compared to the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in operating income for the film manufacturing
operations due to an increase in net sales as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2005. Business development and other unallocated costs were $1.9 million lower in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 than in the prior year period as a result of the
decrease in employee termination costs and reduced levels of spending on research and technology development.

Interest Expense.
Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was $12.2 million, a decrease of $0.1 million compared to the prior year period. The major components of interest expense are detailed in the table below. The most notable change in comparing the
first quarters of fiscal 2006 and 2005 is the increase in interest expense on Appletons floating rate term loans from 2005 levels. Though Appleton fixed the interest rate on a portion ($100 million) of that debt with a three-year interest rate
swap contract that took effect on March 21, 2006, all of the outstanding indebtedness under the existing credit facility was at a floating rate through most of the first quarter of 2006 and LIBOR rates have increased fairly steadily since the
end of the first quarter of 2005. Interest on Appletons senior notes decreased as a result of retiring $13.0 million of the notes during fiscal 2005. No further interest expense was recognized for accretion of the Fox River liability as
Appleton has fully accreted the obligation to $25.0 million, representing Appletons share of the liability under the terms of its agreement with Arjo Wiggins Appleton Limited. Refer to Note 12 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements for further information on the Fox River liability.

Interest Income. Interest income for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was $0.2 million, similar to
the prior year period. In both years, most of the interest represents earnings on short-term investments.

Foreign Exchange Loss. A
foreign exchange loss of $0.1 million was recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 as compared to a loss of $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2005.

Benefit for Income Taxes. In connection with the acquisition of Appleton, Paperweight Development elected to be treated as a subchapter S corporation and for its eligible subsidiaries to be treated as qualified
subchapter S subsidiaries for U.S. federal and, where recognized, state and local income tax purposes. As a result of these elections, Appleton expects to incur no future U.S. income tax liability and minimal state and local income tax liabilities.
The American Plastics and C&H Packaging subsidiaries acquired in 2003, as well as New England Extrusion, acquired in January 2005, are eligible for such treatment. Appletons Canadian subsidiary, Appleton Papers Canada Ltd., and
BemroseBooth, a company registered in the U.K. and subject to U.K. Inland Revenue tax laws, are not eligible for treatment as qualified subchapter S subsidiaries. As a result, Appleton will incur a foreign tax liability. As a subchapter S
corporation, Paperweight Development is subject to a corporate-level tax under Section 1374 of the Internal Revenue Code known as the built-in gain tax. The built-in gain tax is a tax imposed on the gain inherent in assets as of the effective
date of the S election if the gain is recognized within ten years after the effective date of the S election. If Appleton sells a material portion of its assets within that ten-year period, Appleton could be subject to a significant tax liability.

For the first fiscal quarter of 2006, Appleton recorded an income tax benefit of $0.3 million, which included a $0.4 million tax benefit
recorded by BemroseBooth and a $0.1 million provision for state income taxes for Appletons other businesses. A net income tax benefit of $0.8 million was recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2005, which was primarily attributable to the
net loss position of BemroseBooth through the first quarter of 2005.

Net Income (Loss). Appleton reported net income of $5.6
million for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 versus a net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 of $4.3 million. Major factors accounting for the improved results include the increases in net sales across all business segments other than the
coated solutions segment, a $4.1 million increase in gross profit, a $2.8 million reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses and a $3.3 million decrease in restructuring costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows from
Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was $27.0 million. Depreciation and amortization charges totaled $19.1 million during this period, a decrease of $0.7 million from the prior
year period. Non-cash employer matching contributions to the KSOP during the quarter amounted to $2.1 million. A net increase in working capital for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 utilized $0.8 million of operating cash. Accounts receivable
decreased by $3.9 million, primarily due to the collection of high year-end balances at BemroseBooth, which reflects the expected seasonality of the BemroseBooth business. Inventories decreased by $1.8 million. Raw materials in Appletons core
businesses decreased by $3.6 million as the relatively high balances at the end of fiscal 2005 were reduced by strong first quarter 2006 shipment levels and continued inventory management efforts. Work in process inventories at C&H Packaging
decreased by $1.7 million as the business was able to eliminate most of its year-end production backlogs, which brought work in process inventories down to more normal levels by the end of the first quarter of 2006. These decreases were offset by
increases in finished goods inventories in Appletons core businesses, at C&H Packaging and at BemroseBooth. Within the core Appleton businesses, carbonless finished goods inventory increased by $1.0 million to levels better suited to
maintaining service levels. C&H Packaging finished goods inventory increased $2.3 million due to increased production for make-and-hold customers. Finished goods inventories at BemroseBooth increased $1.4 million, reflecting the expected build
from the seasonal low at the end of the prior year. Other major cash outflows included a $3.6 million reduction in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities, reflecting the payment of previously accrued customer rebates and employee bonuses
based on fiscal 2005 results, and a $2.4 million decrease in the restructuring reserves, reflecting payments of severance benefits and other costs associated with the restructuring.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 was $11.5 million. Depreciation and amortization charges totaled $19.8
million during this period, a decrease of $0.1 million from the prior year period. Non-cash employer matching contributions to the KSOP during the quarter amounted to $2.4 million. A net increase in working capital for the first quarter of fiscal
2005 utilized $4.4 million of operating cash. Inventories increased by $11.2 million. Raw material and finished goods inventories in Appletons core businesses increased by a total of $8.3 million as inventories were being built back up to
planned levels. Inventories at BemroseBooth increased $3.2 million, reflecting the expected build from the seasonal low at the end of the prior year. Collections on outstanding accounts receivable generated $11.0 million of operating cash. Accounts
payable and other accrued liabilities decreased by $5.8 million due to decreases in accrued payroll, accrued discounts, accrued insurance and other accrued taxes.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Net cash used by investing activities was $3.2 million for
the first quarter of fiscal 2006, which represented $4.0 million of capital project spending net of $0.8 million in equipment sale proceeds.

Net cash used by investing activities was $77.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2005, $8.5 million of which represented capital project spending. An additional $68.9 million related to costs directly associated with Appletons
January 2005 acquisition of New England Extrusion.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash used by financing activities was
$10.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Appleton made mandatory repayments of $6.2 million on its term loans, including $5.6 million for the excess cash flow, a mandatory prepayment required under the terms of Appletons
credit agreement and calculated in a prescribed manner following the close of each fiscal year, and repaid the entire $2.0 million of outstanding indebtedness under Appletons revolving credit facility. There were no proceeds from the issuance
of Paperweight Development redeemable common stock during the first fiscal quarter of 2006 while payments to redeem Paperweight Development common stock were minimal. Cash overdrafts decreased by $1.9 million.

As described in the risk factor under Part II, Item 1A, below, and in Notes 13 and 14 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,
Appleton currently expects that, in order to comply with its financial covenants, some of its required ESOP share repurchases throughout the remainder of fiscal 2006 will be made on an installment basis, as permitted under the terms of the ESOP.
Appleton has determined that in the second fiscal quarter of 2006, semi-annual payments for stock redemptions will total approximately $16 million, approximately $5.8 million of which will be in installment payments. Even though Appleton expects
that it will convert all eligible redemption payments to an installment basis, it appears that the total payments for stock redemptions will exceed the covenant limitations established by Appletons senior note and senior subordinated note
indentures by approximately $5.5 million. Accordingly, Appleton is currently talking with its financial and legal advisors regarding the impact of the projected stock redemption payments on the restrictive covenants of the indentures and exploring
the appropriate course of action required to enable Appleton to make the projected payments in compliance with the covenants. Defaults on any of the indebtedness covered by these covenants could result in acceleration of the indebtedness and cause
Appleton to dispose of its assets or declare bankruptcy and, as a result, Appleton may not have sufficient funds to satisfy its obligations under the senior notes and senior subordinated notes.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $10.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2005. Appleton made mandatory repayments of $0.6 million on
its term loans and payments of $23.5 million against the $30.0 million borrowing under Appletons revolving line of credit, which had originated in connection with the January 2005 acquisition of New England Extrusion. Proceeds from the
issuance of Paperweight Development redeemable common stock totaled $4.4 million during the quarter. Payments to redeem Paperweight Development common stock totaled $0.2 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2005. As described in the risk factor
under Part II, Item 1A, below and in Notes 13 and 14 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in order to comply, with its financial covenants, Appleton converted some of its required ESOP share repurchases in fiscal 2005 to an
installment basis, as permitted under the terms of the ESOP, which were then paid in the second fiscal quarter of 2005.

New Accounting
Pronouncements

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 151, Inventory Costs  an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. The standard adopts the view related to inventories that abnormal amounts of idle capacity and spoilage costs should be
excluded from the cost of inventory and expensed when incurred. Additionally, the meaning of the term normal capacity was clarified. The provisions of SFAS 151 are applicable to inventory costs incurred by Appleton beginning in 2006 and
has not had a significant effect on the companys financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153,
Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets  an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. SFAS 153 is based on the principle that nonmonetary asset exchanges should be recorded and measured at the fair value of the assets exchanged, with certain
exceptions. This standard requires exchanges of productive assets to be accounted for at fair value, rather than at carryover basis, unless (1) neither the asset received nor the asset surrendered has a fair value that is determinable within
reasonable limits or (2) the transactions lack commercial substance (as defined). This standard is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges made by Appleton beginning in 2006 and has not had a significant effect on the companys financial
statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment  an amendment of FASB Statements
No. 123 and 95. This statement requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award at the grant date (with limited exceptions) and
recognize the compensation cost over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. In March 2005, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, which expresses views of the SEC staff regarding the application of SFAS No. 123(R). Among other things, SAB 107 provides interpretive guidance related to the interaction between SFAS
No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the SEC staffs views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. The company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) during the first quarter of
2006 and it did not have a significant effect on its financial statements, given the nature of the companys plans.

Item 3Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For information regarding
quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. There have been no material changes in the quantitative or qualitative exposure to market risk from that
described in the Form 10-K.

Item 4Controls and Procedures

Appleton and Paperweight Development maintain a set of
disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Appleton and Paperweight Development in the reports filed or submitted by them under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the
Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Appleton and Paperweight Development carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of
their management, including each of their principal executive officers and principal financial officers, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of their disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 15d-15 of the Exchange Act.

There have been no changes in the registrants internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation
discussed above that occurred during the registrants last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, the registrants internal control over financial reporting.

Subsequent to April 2, 2006, management of Appleton and Paperweight Development determined that their internal control over financial reporting
relating to travel and expense reimbursements, gifts to certain employees and related record-keeping practices had been operating ineffectively. As a result, the independent Audit Committee of Paperweight Development has engaged outside counsel to
undertake a review of issues concerning travel and expense reimbursements, gifts to certain employees and related record-keeping practices, as described in Part II, Item 5 Other Information. Management of Appleton and Paperweight
Development believes that there will not be any material effect on their financial results and financial statements for any prior period as a result of ineffective controls over travel and expense reimbursements, gifts to certain employees and
related record-keeping practices. Management of Appleton and Paperweight Development determined, however, that as of April 2, 2006 this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness because of the circumvention of policy and override of
controls by certain individuals, including senior management. Using the following classification from the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, a material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that
results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As a result of this material weakness, Mark Richards, the principal executive officer and
principal financial officer of both Appleton and Paperweight Development, concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of Appleton and Paperweight Development were ineffective as of April 2, 2006. Appleton, Paperweight Development and
the Audit Committee intend to take remedial action in accordance with the results of the third-party review.



PART II  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A  Risk Factors

Other than with respect to the risk factor set forth below, there have been no material
changes in the risk factors disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Paperweight Developments
legal obligations to repurchase common stock from employees and former employees may lead to a default under the agreements governing our indebtedness

It may be necessary for us to make significant distributions to Paperweight Development in order for it to satisfy its share repurchase obligations, under the Employee Retirement Income Savings Act of 1974, or ERISA,
and the terms of the KSOP, to current and former employees who are participants in the ESOP. Paperweight Development incurs obligations to ESOP participants to repurchase shares of Paperweight Development when they retire or otherwise terminate
employment. The ESOP allows Paperweight Development to satisfy its share repurchase obligations by installment payments. For repurchases in 2003 and 2004, Paperweight Development completed share repurchases to former employees by single payments.
During 2005, Appleton exercised its right to satisfy its share repurchase obligations to former participants by making five equal annual installment payments. Because the amount of our repurchase obligation is based on individual elections made
semi-annually in mid-April and mid-October by former employees and the deadline for the second of these election periods for fiscal 2006 does not expire until mid-October 2006, it is difficult for us to accurately estimate the ultimate amount of the
repurchase obligation for fiscal 2006. However, if the number of shares that former employees elect to redeem is consistent with or greater than prior years, we expect to pay for the 2006 repurchases by making five equal annual installment payments.

The ESOP also has obligations to permit certain participants to diversify the investment of a portion of
their ESOP account, which would otherwise be invested in shares of Paperweight Development stock. However, the agreements governing our indebtedness, including our indebtedness under the senior notes and senior subordinated notes, contain
limitations on our ability to make this type of distribution. The amount of Paperweight Developments repurchase obligations may at any time exceed these limitations and we may elect to or be forced to help Paperweight Development meet its
obligations. Further, Paperweight Development, as a guarantor of our indebtedness, may also be limited to some extent from making payments to the ESOP or its beneficiaries by the terms of its and our indebtedness, including our indebtedness under
the senior notes and senior subordinated notes. As a result of Paperweight Developments legally imposed repurchase obligation, we and/or Paperweight Development may be forced to violate the distribution and/or payment limitations contained in
the agreements relating to its and our indebtedness, including our indebtedness under the senior notes and senior subordinated notes, which may ultimately result in a default under the agreements and the notes. We have estimated that the total
payments of approximately $16 million for semi-annual stock redemptions to be made in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 will exceed the covenant limitations established by the indentures governing the senior notes and senior subordinated notes by
approximately $5.5 million. Accordingly, we are currently talking with our financial and legal advisors regarding the impact of the projected stock redemption payments on the restrictive covenants of the indentures and exploring the appropriate
course of action required to enable Appleton to make the projected payments in compliance with the covenants. Defaults on any of our indebtedness could result in acceleration of our indebtedness and cause us to dispose of our assets or declare
bankruptcy and, as a result, we may not have sufficient funds to satisfy our obligations under the senior notes and senior subordinated notes.
