Due to ongoing review and analysis of certain contributions that may be required with respect to certain past and present Cascade Corporation Savings and Investment Plan (the “Plan”) participants, the Plan was unable to complete the annual audit by the filing deadline. The Plan expects to file the Annual Report on Form 11-K no later than July 14, 2009.

Joseph G. Pointer		503		669-6300
(Name)		(Area Code)		(Telephone Number)

 

(2)

Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no, identify report(s).    x  Yes    ¨  No

 

 

(3)	Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?    x  Yes    ¨  No

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

The Plan believes that the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008, will reflect a decrease in net assets available for benefits of approximately $20.2 million. The decrease is due primarily to the net depreciation in the fair value of investments as a result of the economic recession.

Cascade Corporation Savings and Investment Plan has caused this notification to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
