PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 20.    Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

        Article IV of Pliant Corporation's Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provides that Pliant Corporation shall indemnify and advance expenses to its directors and officers and to any person who is or was serving at its request as a director or officer of another domestic or foreign corporation (and their respective estates or personal representatives) to the fullest extent as from time to time permitted by Utah law. In addition, pursuant to Article IV of the Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, the personal liability of the directors and officers of Pliant Corporation to Pliant Corporation or its shareholders, or to any third person, is eliminated or limited to the fullest extent as from time to time permitted by Utah law. Sections 16-10a-902 and 16-10a-907 of the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act provide that a corporation may indemnify its directors and officers who are made parties to a legal proceeding because of their positions with the corporation against liability incurred in the proceeding if the individual's conduct was in good faith, the individual reasonably believed that his conduct was in, or not opposed to, the corporation's best interests, and in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Under the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act, Pliant Corporation may not indemnify its directors or officers in connection with a proceeding by, or in the right of, Pliant Corporation in which the individual was adjudged liable to it or in any proceeding in which the individual was adjudged liable on the basis that he derived an improper personal benefit.

        As authorized by Section 16-10a-841(1) of the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of Pliant Corporation provide that Pliant Corporation's directors shall not be personally liable to Pliant Corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for any action taken or any failure to take any action, as a director, except liability for: (a) the amount of a financial benefit received by a director to which he or she is not entitled; (b) an intentional infliction of harm on Pliant Corporation or its shareholders; (c) a violation of Section 16-10a-842 of the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act for unlawful distributions; or (d) an intentional violation of criminal law. The Amended and Restated Bylaws also provide for indemnification of Pliant Corporation's directors and officers and advancement of their expenses to the fullest extent as from time to time permitted by applicable law, including, without limitation, Section 16-10a-902 of the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES

        Pliant Corporation and Subsidiaries—Schedule II—Valuation and Qualifying Accounts for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 (included on page F-56 of the prospectus filed pursuant to Part I of this registration statement).

        Schedules other than the above have been omitted because they are either not applicable or the required information has been disclosed in the financial statements or notes thereto.

Item 22.    Undertakings.

        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrants pursuant to the forgoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrants of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrants in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrants will, unless in the opinion of their counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by them is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

        The undersigned Registrants hereby undertake:

            1.     To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement;

II-11


              (a)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

              (b)   To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and

              (c)   To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

            2.     That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and

            3.     To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

        The undersigned Registrants hereby undertake to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

        The undersigned Registrants hereby undertake to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.

        The undersigned Registrants hereby undertake that:

            1.     For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and

            2.     For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
