Item 2.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On June 9, 2006, pursuant to a merger agreement, dated February 24, 2006 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Packaging Dynamics Corporation (“Packaging Dynamics”), Thilmany, LLC (“Thilmany LLC”), and KTHP Acquisition, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thilmany (“Newco”), Newco merged with and into Packaging Dynamics (the “Merger”). Packaging Dynamics is the surviving corporation in the Merger and, as a result, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thilmany, Inc., the successor entity to Thilmany LLC (“Thilmany Inc” and together with Thilmany LLC, hereinafter referred to as “Thilmany”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Thilmany paid $14.00 per share in cash for each outstanding share of Packaging Dynamics common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") and $14.00 less the exercise price of all outstanding stock options, in each case without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, as of the effective time of the Merger as consideration for the Merger. Thilmany financed the Merger by entering into equity, senior secured note and senior subordinated note financing arrangements.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement (including the description of the consideration paid in connection with the Merger) is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to Packaging Dynamics' current report filed on Form 8-K on February 27, 2006 and incorporated by reference herein.
