Graphic Packaging Joins Forces With Arbor Day Foundation Graphic Packaging International has formed a corporate partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, a global non- profit dedicated to planting trees with a focus on forests and communities most in need. As part of the partnership, Graphic Packaging will con- tribute $500,000 over the next five years to support stra- tegic, large-scale reforestation and urban forestry initiatives with the Arbor Day Foundation. These efforts will help to expand green spaces in the communities where the company operates and support res- toration projects in areas identified as high priority through science-based assessments. Employees around the world will bring this work to life by: • Leading and participating in hands-on tree-planting events • Distributing seedlings and trees in their communities • Supporting global reforestation projects “Enhancing the communities where we live and work is a key part of Vision 2030, and protecting the environment is essential to strong, healthy communities,” said Graphic Packaging President and Chief Executive Officer Michael Doss. “Graphic Packaging employees have distributed 130,000 trees since 2010, and we’re proud to partner with the Arbor Day Foundation to build on our history of giving

back to communities and the planet.” The Arbor Day Foundation’s Forest Priority Index (FPI) and Nature Priority Index (NPI) tools will help guide Graph- ic Packaging’s project selections. The FPI identifies forest regions where reforestation will have the highest impact on climate, biodiversity and community resilience. The NPI — created by NatureQuant, one of the Foundation’s technology partners — helps to highlight census tracts in urban areas where trees can most improve human health and tree access. The Arbor Day Foundation collaboration marks a flag- ship initiative under RENEW, Graphic Packaging’s social impact program. RENEW is designed to drive meaningful change in and around communities where Graphic Pack- aging operates across three key areas: • Renewing the Environment by restoring nature and promoting recycling • Renewing Food Access by providing food and sup- plies where most needed • Renewing Futures by empowering youth and invest- ing in the workforce of the future Graphic Packaging’s philanthropy and volunteerism program includes a heightened focus on impact and fa- cility-wide participation across more than 100 locations in more than 25 countries. RENEW connects the company’s purpose — packaging life’s everyday moments for a re- newable future — with its sustainability commitment to be Better, Every Day, for people, communities and the planet.
