Stock options and stock appreciation rights to purchase 1,186,225 and 1,894,994 shares at July 3, 2011 and June 27, 2010, respectively, were not dilutive and, therefore, are excluded from the computations of diluted income attributable to Sonoco per common share amounts. No adjustments were made to reported net income attributable to Sonoco in the computations of earnings per share.
