On February 1, 2012, Tredegar Corporation (“Tredegar”) announced that its Bonnell Aluminum subsidiary will close its plant in Kentland, Indiana. The plant is scheduled to close by September 30, 2012.

Estimated charges related to the exit and disposal activities are expected to total approximately $8 million, which include approximately $4 million in cash expenditures that Tredegar expects to make over the next 18 months.
On February 1, 2012, Tredegar issued a press release announcing the closing of the Kentland facility. A copy of the release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
