  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On April&nbsp;29, 2008,
  Bemis Company,&nbsp;Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) refinanced its revolving bank credit
  agreement, replacing<b>  </b>the $500
  million revolving credit facility scheduled to mature on September&nbsp;2,
  2009.&nbsp; Under the terms of the two revolving Credit Agreements dated April&nbsp;29,
  2008 among Bemis Company,&nbsp;Inc., various financial institutions, JPMorgan
  Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and Wachovia Bank, N.A., as Syndication
  Agent (the &#147;Credit Agreements&#148;), the Company may borrow up to $425 million
  through April&nbsp;29, 2013 and $75 million through April&nbsp;29, 2009.&nbsp; Borrowings
  outstanding under the terminated Credit Agreement totaling $32.1 million were
  repaid with available cash and borrowings under the $75 million 364-Day Credit
  Agreement at Closing. &nbsp; The Company expects to use the credit facility
  primarily to support its issuance of commercial paper.&nbsp; The Company pays an
  annual facility fee on the $425 million Credit Facility and the $75 million
  364-day Credit Facility of 0.08 percent and 0.06 percent, respectively, on the
  entire amount of each commitment, payable quarterly in arrears.</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The participants of both the
  $425 million Credit Agreement and the $75 million 364-Day Credit Agreement are JPMorgan
  Chase Bank, N.A., BNP Paribas, ING Capital LLC, U.S. Bank National Association,
  Wachovia Bank, N.A., and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association.&nbsp; Certain
  of the participant banks and their respective affiliates have been engaged, and
  each of the participant banks and their respective affiliates may in the future
  be engaged, to provide services to the Company and its affiliates in the
  ordinary course of business, including commercial banking, investment
  management and investment banking.</font></p>

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">At the Company&#146;s option,
  any loan under the Credit Agreements bear interest at a variable rate based on
  LIBOR or an alternative variable rate based on either the JPMorgan prime rate
  or the federal funds rate, in each case plus a basis point spread determined by
  reference to the Company&#146;s debt ratings, as defined in the Credit Agreements.</font></p>

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Credit Agreements
  contain standard covenants, including affirmative financial covenants regarding
  the maintenance of maximum debt to total capitalization ratios and minimum net
  worth, and negative covenants, which, among other things, limit the disposition
  of assets, consolidations and mergers, liens and other matters customarily
  restricted in such agreements. Most of these restrictions are subject to
  certain minimum thresholds and exceptions. The Credit Agreements also contain
  customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults,
  material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, covenant defaults,
  bankruptcy and involuntary proceedings, monetary judgment defaults in excess of
  specified amounts, cross-defaults to certain other agreements, change of
  control, and customary ERISA defaults.</font></p>

  ITEM
  1.01.  ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
  On April 29, 2008,
  Bemis Company, Inc. (the "Company") refinanced its revolving bank credit
  agreement, replacing
  the $500
  million revolving credit facility scheduled to mature on September 2,
  2009.  Under the terms of the two revolving Credit Agreements dated April 29,
  2008 among Bemis Company, Inc., various financial institutions, JPMorgan
  Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and Wachovia Bank, N.A., as Syndication
  Agent (the "Credit Agreements"), the Company may borrow up to $425 million
  through April 29, 2013 and $75 million through April 29, 2009.  Borrowings
  outstanding under the terminated Credit Agreement totaling $32.1 million were
  repaid with available cash and borrowings under the $75 million 364-Day Credit
  Agreement at Closing.   The Company expects to use the credit facility
  primarily to support its issuance of commercial paper.  The Company pays an
  annual facility fee on the $425 million Credit Facility and the $75 million
  364-day Credit Facility of 0.08 percent and 0.06 percent, respectively, on the
  entire amount of each commitment, payable quarterly in arrears.
  The participants of both the
  $425 million Credit Agreement and the $75 million 364-Day Credit Agreement are JPMorgan
  Chase Bank, N.A., BNP Paribas, ING Capital LLC, U.S. Bank National Association,
  Wachovia Bank, N.A., and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association.  Certain
  of the participant banks and their respective affiliates have been engaged, and
  each of the participant banks and their respective affiliates may in the future
  be engaged, to provide services to the Company and its affiliates in the
  ordinary course of business, including commercial banking, investment
  management and investment banking.
  At the Company's option,
  any loan under the Credit Agreements bear interest at a variable rate based on
  LIBOR or an alternative variable rate based on either the JPMorgan prime rate
  or the federal funds rate, in each case plus a basis point spread determined by
  reference to the Company's debt ratings, as defined in the Credit Agreements.
  The Credit Agreements
  contain standard covenants, including affirmative financial covenants regarding
  the maintenance of maximum debt to total capitalization ratios and minimum net
  worth, and negative covenants, which, among other things, limit the disposition
  of assets, consolidations and mergers, liens and other matters customarily
  restricted in such agreements. Most of these restrictions are subject to
  certain minimum thresholds and exceptions. The Credit Agreements also contain
  customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults,
  material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, covenant defaults,
  bankruptcy and involuntary proceedings, monetary judgment defaults in excess of
  specified amounts, cross-defaults to certain other agreements, change of
  control, and customary ERISA defaults.
  ITEM
  1.02.  TERMINATION OF A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
  In connection with
  entering into the Credit Agreements described above, on April 29, 2008,
  the Company terminated its previous $500 million Revolving Credit Agreement
  among Bemis Company, Inc., various financial institutions, and J.P.
  Morgan, as Administrative Agent, dated as of September 2, 2004.  This agreement was scheduled to expire on September 2,
  2009.
