Item 5. Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure

On April 2, 2003, two putative class action lawsuits were filed in District Court, Jefferson County, Colorado, against Graphic Packaging International Inc. (the “Company”), the Company’s directors and Riverwood Holding, Inc. (“Riverwood”) relating to the proposed merger transaction (the “Merger”) between the Company and Riverwood pursuant to the Merger Agreement dated March 25, 2003 among the Company, Riverwood and Riverwood Acquisition Sub LLC (previously described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on March 28, 2003). Each of the two Complaints alleges breach of fiduciary duties by the defendants to the Company’s public stockholders in connection with the proposed Merger. The Complaints, which are encaptioned Robert F. Smith, On Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated v. Jeffrey H. Coors, et al., and Harold Lightweis, On Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated v. Jeffrey H. Coors, et al., seek an injunction against consummation of the Merger, rescission of the Merger if it is consummated, unspecified damages, costs (including attorneys fees), and other relief permitted by law and equity. The Company believes that these lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend both cases.

Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits

None required.
