Effective September 21, 2020, the Glatfelter 401(k) Savings Plan for Hourly Employees (the “Hourly Plan”) merged (the “Merger”) with and into the Glatfelter 401(k) Savings Plan. As a result of the Merger, the Hourly Plan ceased to exist, and the interests in the Hourly Plan, which previously constituted securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, no longer exist. This Form 15 has been filed to suspend the Hourly Plan’s duty to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
