        Graham Packaging Company, L.P. and GPC Capital Corp. I (the "Issuers") are offering (the "Exchange Offer") to exchange $1,000 in principal amount of the Issuers' new 81/2% Senior Notes due 2012 and new 97/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014, respectively,(the "Exchange Notes"), for each $1,000 in principal amount of outstanding 81/2% Senior Notes due 2012 and 97/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 that were each issued on October 7, 2004 (the "Old Notes"). The terms of the Exchange Notes are identical in all material respects (including principal amount, interest rate and maturity) to the terms of the Old Notes for which they may be exchanged pursuant to the Exchange Offer, except that the Exchange Notes are freely transferable by holders thereof, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the enclosed Prospectus, dated            , 2005 (as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Prospectus"), and the enclosed Letter of Transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal"), and are not subject to any covenant regarding registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The outstanding 81/2% Senior Notes are unconditionally guaranteed (the "Old 81/2% Senior Note Guarantee") by Graham Packaging Holdings Company and certain of the Issuers' direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Guarantors"), on a senior unsecured basis and the new 81/2% Senior Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed (the "New 81/2% Senior Note Guarantee") by the Guarantors on a senior unsecured basis. The outstanding 97/8% Senior Subordinated Notes are unconditionally guaranteed (the "Old 97/8% Guarantee" and together with the Old 81/2% Guarantee, the "Old Guarantees") by the Guarantors on a senior subordinated basis, and the new 97/8% Senior Subordinated Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed (the "New 97/8% Guarantee" and together with the New 81/2% Guarantee, the "New Guarantees") by the Guarantors on a senior subordinated basis. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus and the Letter of Transmittal, the Guarantors offer to issue the New Guarantees with respect to all Exchange Notes issued in the Exchange Offer in exchange for the outstanding Old Guarantees of the Old Notes for which such Exchange Notes are issued in exchange.

        Throughout this letter, unless the context otherwise requires and whether so expressed or not, references to the "Exchange Offer" include the Guarantors offer to exchange the New Guarantees for the Old Guarantees, references to the "Issuers" include the Guarantors as issuers of the New Guarantees and the Old Guarantees, references to the "Exchange Notes" include the related New Guarantees and references to the "Old Notes" include the related Old Guarantees.



        The Issuers will accept for exchange any and all Old Notes properly tendered according to the terms of the Prospectus and the Letter of Transmittal. Consummation of the Exchange Offer is subject to certain conditions described in the Prospectus.

        WE ARE ASKING YOU TO CONTACT YOUR CLIENTS FOR WHOM YOU HOLD OLD NOTES REGISTERED IN YOUR NAME OR IN THE NAME OF YOUR NOMINEE OR WHO HOLD OLD NOTES REGISTERED IN THEIR OWN NAMES.

You will, however, be reimbursed by the Issuers for customary mailing and handling expenses incurred by you in forwarding any of the enclosed materials to your clients.
