Exhibit 99.1

      (1)  These  shares  of  common  stock  were  disposed  of  pursuant to the
Agreement  and  Plan  of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated October 4, 2010,
among  Polymer  Group,  Inc.  (the  "Issuer"),  Scorpio Acquisition Corporation,
Scorpio  Merger Sub Corporation ("Merger Subsidiary") and MatlinPatterson Global
Opportunities  Partners L.P. pursuant to which Merger Subsidiary was merged with
and  into  the  Issuer  (the "Merger"). As a result of the Merger, each share of
common stock was converted into the right to receive (i) upon the effective time
of  the  Merger,  an  amount  in  cash  equal to $15.32, and (ii) on each Escrow
Release  Date  (as  defined in the Merger Agreement), an amount in cash equal to
the  Per Share Escrow Payment (as defined in the Merger Agreement), in each case
less any applicable withholding taxes.

      (2)  Each  of  MatlinPatterson Global Opportunities Partners L.P. ("Matlin
Partners  (Delaware)"),  MatlinPatterson Global Opportunities Partners (Bermuda)
L.P.  ("Matlin  Partners  (Bermuda)")  and  MatlinPatterson Global Opportunities
Partners  B,  L.P.  ("the  Opt-Out  Fund"  and  together  with  Matlin  Partners
(Delaware),  and  Matlin  Partners (Bermuda), the "Matlin Funds") was the direct
beneficial  owner  of  9,968,811, 3,473,703 and 154,407 shares of Class A Common
Stock,  respectively.  The  Reporting  Person  is an employee of MatlinPatterson
Global  Advisers  LLC,  the  investment  advisor  to  each  of Matlin Funds. The
Reporting  Person did not have voting or investment control over the shares held
by the Matlin Partnerships. Although the Reporting Person did not have voting or
investment  control  over  the  shares  held  by the Matlin Funds, the Reporting
Person  may  be deemed to have had an indirect pecuniary interest in such shares
through  his  indirect  interest  in a limited partner which holds an investment
interest  and carried interest in the Matlin Funds. His exact pecuniary interest
therein  is not readily determinable because it is subject to several variables,
including  without  limitation, the internal rates of return of the Matlin Funds
overall  with  respect to their indirect investment in the Issuer. The Reporting
Person  disclaims  beneficial ownership of any of the reported securities except
to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
