            THESE STOCK AWARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS (“Terms and Conditions”) effective as of the ____ day of _____________, 2009, govern the Stock Award made by Tredegar Corporation, a Virginia corporation (the “Company”), to the participant (the “Participant”) named in the Notice of Stock Award to which these Terms and Conditions are attached (the
            “Grant Notice”), and are made in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). A copy of the Plan has been made available to Participant. All terms used in these Terms and Conditions that are defined in the Plan have the same meaning given them in the Plan.


             


            1.         Grant of Stock Award. In accordance with the Plan, and effective as of the Date of Grant specified in the Grant Notice (the “Date of Grant”), the Company granted to Participant, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and these Terms and Conditions, the
            number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Grant Notice (the “Shares”). Subject to Section 2, certificates evidencing the Shares shall be issued by the Company and registered in the name of the Participant on the stock transfer books of the Company. However, certificates issued with respect to the Shares shall be held by the Company in escrow under the terms hereof. Such certificates shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2(b) or such other appropriate legend
            as the Committee shall determine, which legend shall be removed only if and when the Shares vest as provided herein, at which time the certificates shall be delivered to the Participant.


             


            2.           Terms and Conditions. The Shares are subject to the following additional terms and conditions:


             


            (a)        Rights as a Shareholder. Upon the issuance of the Shares, the Participant shall be entitled to vote the Shares, and shall be entitled to receive, free of all restrictions, ordinary cash dividends. Stock received as a dividend on, or in connection with a stock split of, the Shares
            shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Shares. The Participant’s right to receive any extraordinary dividends or other distributions with respect to the Shares prior to their becoming nonforfeitable shall be at the sole discretion of the Committee, but in the event of any such extraordinary event, the Committee shall take action appropriate to preserve the value of, and prevent the unintended enhancement of the Shares.


             


            (b)        Legend. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, any certificate issued in respect of the Shares prior to the lapse of any outstanding restrictions relating thereto shall bear the following legend:


             


            “This certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions, including the forfeiture provisions and restrictions against transfer (the “Restrictions”), contained in the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and an agreement entered into between the registered owner and the Company. Any attempt to dispose of these
            shares in contravention of the applicable restrictions, including by way of sale,


             


            
                

            


            assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or otherwise, shall be null and void and without effect.”


             


            As soon as practicable following the lapse of the restrictions in accordance with paragraph (c), the Company shall reissue certificates for the Shares without the restricted legend.


             


            (c)        Lapse of Restrictions. Subject to the provisions of Sections 3, 4, 5 and 6, the Shares shall become vested and nonforfeitable on the third anniversary of the Date of Grant.


             


            (d)        Nontransferability. So long as the Shares are unvested, the Shares are nontransferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.


             


            (e)        Grant of Stock Power. The Participant hereby appoints Patricia A. Thomas, or her successor, as the true and lawful attorney of the Participant, to endorse and execute for and in the name and stead of the Participant any certificates evidencing the Shares if any of the Shares are
            forfeited.


             


            3.         Lapse of Restrictions in the Event of Death. The restrictions on the Shares shall lapse upon Participant’s death if Participant remains in the continuous employ of the Company or an Affiliate from the Date of Grant until the Participant’s death.


             


            4.         Lapse of Restrictions in the Event of Permanent and Total Disability. The restrictions on the Shares shall lapse upon Participant’s termination of employment on account of permanent and total disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) if Participant
            remains in the continuous employ of the Company or an Affiliate from the Date of Grant until the date of termination on account of permanent and total disability (as previously defined).

            and Person shall have the same definitions given them in the Rights Agreement between Tredegar Corporation and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, dated as of June 30, 1999, as amended.

            capital gains taxes, transfer taxes, and social security contributions. In lieu thereof, the Company shall have the right to retain the number of shares of Common Stock whose Fair Market Value equals the minimum amount required to be withheld. In any event, the Company shall have the right to deduct

            9.         No Right to Continued Employment. The award of the Shares does not give Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company or an Affiliate, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate his or her
            employment at any time.


             


            10.       Change in Capital Structure. The Shares shall be adjusted as the Committee determines is equitably required in the event the Company effects one or more stock dividends, stock split-ups subdivisions or consolidations of shares, other similar changes in capitalization or such other
            events as are described in the Plan.


             


            11.       Governing Law. These Terms and Conditions and the Grant Notice shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
