Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

On June 14, 2010, Greif, Inc. (the “Company”) and its indirect subsidiary Greif International Holding Supra C.V., a Netherlands limited partnership (“Greif Supra”), entered into a Formation Agreement with Dabbagh Group Holding Company Limited, a Saudi Arabia corporation (“Dabbagh”), and National Scientific Company Limited, a Saudi Arabia limited liability company and a subsidiary of Dabbagh (“NSC”). Since 2007, the Company (through its indirect subsidiary Greif International Holding B.V.) and Dabbagh (through its affiliate Petromin Corporation), have been participating in a joint venture known as Greif Saudi Arabia Ltd., a Saudi Arabia limited liability company.

The Formation Agreement provides for the establishment of a joint venture between Greif Supra and NSC to engage in the polywoven industrial packaging business and to build and operate a polywoven fabric manufacturing facility in Saudi Arabia and possibly other countries. Greif Supra and NSC will have equal economic interests in the joint venture in all respects, notwithstanding the actual ownership interests in the various legal entities. Greif Supra will provide the management for the operation of the business of the joint venture.

The closing of the transaction contemplated by the Formation Agreement is to take place five business days after the conditions set forth therein are fulfilled or waived by the parties. These conditions include the accuracy of representations and warranties of the parties, the performance by the parties of their respective obligations, and the receipt of all necessary governmental and regulatory approvals. If the closing has not occurred within 180 days from the date of the Formation Agreement, either party may terminate the Formation Agreement.

The Formation Agreement requires each of Greif Supra and NSC to commit to provide $150,000,000 of equity capital, a portion of which has already been used by Greif to acquire Storsack Holding GmbH and its subsidiaries. In addition, under the Formation Agreement, each of Greif Supra and NSC are required to provide an additional $150,000,000 of loans or other credit support if and to the extent required by the joint venture businesses.
