Item 5.02

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On April 3, 2009, Caraustar Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) received the voluntary resignation of Mr. Eric R. Zarnikow from the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Mr. Zarnikow’s resignation was effective April 3, 2009.

Mr. Zarnikow’s resignation was not tendered in connection with any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies, or practices at the time of his resignation. In 2007, Mr. Zarnikow was appointed to serve as Associate Administrator for the Small Business Administration’s Office of Capital Access. Due to his increasing commitments with the Small Business Administration, and in particular with regard to his work with the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, Mr. Zarnikow believed that it would be advisable for him to step down from our Board at this time.

The Company’s Board currently has nine members.
