THE ACCOMPANYING NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THESE STATEMENTS. IMATION CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS On June 18, 1996, the Board of Directors of Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company ("3M") approved the spin-off of Imation Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), which is comprised of substantially all of the businesses previously operated within 3M's data storage and imaging systems groups. To effectuate the transaction, the Board of Directors of 3M declared a dividend payable to the holders of record of 3M common stock as of June 28, 1996, based upon a ratio of one share of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") for every ten shares of 3M common stock owned on the record date. Effective July 1, 1996, all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock were distributed to 3M stockholders (the "Distribution"). 3M and the Company have entered into a number of agreements to facilitate the Distribution and the transition of the Company to an independent business enterprise. Descriptions of the various agreements are set forth under the caption "Relationships Between 3M and the Company After the Distribution" contained in the Company's Information Statement in the Form 10 Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 21, 1996. The consolidated financial statements for periods prior to July 1, 1996 reflect the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses that were directly related to the Company as it was operated within 3M. In cases involving assets and liabilities not specifically identifiable to any particular business of 3M, only those assets and liabilities actually transferred to the Company in the Distribution were included in the Company's balance sheets prior to July 1, 1996. Regardless of the allocation of these assets and liabilities, however, the Company's consolidated statements of operations for periods prior to July 1, 1996 include all of the related costs of doing business including an allocation of certain general corporate expenses of 3M which were not directly related to these businesses, including costs for corporate logistics, corporate research and development, information technologies, finance, legal and corporate executives. Management believes these allocations were made on a reasonable basis. All material inter-company transactions and balances between the Company's businesses have been eliminated. The financial information included herein for periods prior to July 1, 1996 may not necessarily be indicative of the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company in the future or what the financial position, results of operations or cash flows would have been if the Company had been a separate, independent company during the periods presented. As of July 1, 1996, the effective date of the Distribution, the transfer of certain non-U.S. operations were pending subject to receipt of consents or approvals or satisfaction of other applicable foreign requirements. The Company is in the process of obtaining these consents and approvals and making the appropriate governmental filings and expects to finalize these foreign transfers in due course. The Company's consolidated financial statements reflect the consummation of all such transactions. The Company and 3M have entered into an agreement that allows for the businesses not yet transferred to continue to operate and for the Company to realize any income or losses generated from such businesses following the effective date of the Distribution. The Company believes that the delay in consummating these transfers will have no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These adjustments, except for the restructuring and other one-time charges recorded in 1996, consist of normal, recurring items. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by the requirements for Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the Company's annual financial statements and notes. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company's historical financial statements and notes included in its Form 10 Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 21, 1996. 2. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND OTHER ONE-TIME CHARGES In late 1995, the Company initiated a review of all of its operations, including its organizational structure, manufacturing operations, products and markets, with the goal of maximizing its cash flows and improving net income. In connection with this review, the Company adopted a reorganization plan to rationalize its manufacturing operations, streamline its organizational structure and write-off impaired assets. The Company has recorded one-time pre-tax charges of approximately $240 million based upon the timing criteria required for the recognition of restructuring charges or upon incurrence for other one-time charges. The Company recorded $166 million of these charges in its 1995 consolidated statement of operations primarily for the write-down of assets associated with its manufacturing rationalization programs. In the first and second quarters of 1996, the Company recorded $53.9 million of restructuring charges related primarily to employee separation programs and $22.5 million of one-time charges associated with start-up activities. No additional restructuring or one-time charges were recorded in the third quarter of 1996. Substantially all of the restructuring charges have either been utilized by the Company or retained by 3M pursuant to the spin-off. 3. FINANCING ARRANGEMENT On July 1, 1996, the Company entered into a $350 million revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks which expires on June 30, 2001. There is no collateral required and no principal amortization prior to expiration of the facility. Borrowings under the facility are to be used for working capital needs and other general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest based on the London interbank offered rate (LIBOR) or the administrative agent bank's base rate, plus an applicable margin based on the Company's interest coverage ratio. The agreement contains financial covenants that include a maximum debt to capital ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio, and a minimum consolidated tangible net worth. As of September 30, 1996, the Company had a principal balance of $163 million outstanding under the credit facility. In addition, the Company had various borrowing arrangements in its international locations with a total balance outstanding as of September 30, 1996 of $20.5 million. 4. SUBSEQUENT EVENT Effective October 11, 1996, the Company acquired Luminous Corporation, a developer and marketer of desktop software to the prepress, print production, printing, and graphic arts industries. The acquisition was accounted for by the purchase method with consideration being paid in the form of cash and common stock of the Company. In the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company will recognize a non-deductible charge of approximately $12 million for the write-off of the purchase price allocated to in-process research and development. Exclusive of the research and development charge, it is expected that this acquisition will not have a significant impact on the Company's operating results in 1996. ***** Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P., the Company's independent accountants, have performed a review of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein and their report thereon accompanies this filing. REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To the Stockholders of Imation Corp.: We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Imation Corp. (the Company) as of September 30, 1996, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1995, and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 29, 1996, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1995, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived. /s/ COOPERS & LYBRAND L.L.P. COOPERS & LYBRAND L.L.P. Minneapolis, Minnesota October 30, 1996 IMATION CORP. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL OVERVIEW On June 18, 1996, the Board of Directors of Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company ("3M") approved the spin-off of Imation Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), which is comprised of substantially all of the businesses previously operated within 3M's data storage and imaging systems groups. To effectuate the transaction, the Board of Directors of 3M declared a dividend payable to the holders of record of 3M common stock as of June 28, 1996, based upon a ratio of one share of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") for every ten shares of 3M common stock owned on the record date. Effective July 1, 1996, all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock were distributed to 3M stockholders (the "Distribution"). Following the Distribution, the Company began operations as an independent, publicly held company. Prior to July 1, 1996, the financial statements reflect the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the businesses transferred to the Company from 3M as they operated within 3M. As a result, the financial statements of the Company prior to July 1, 1996 have been carved out from the financial statements of 3M using the historical results of operations and historical basis of the assets and liabilities of such businesses. The Company's statements of operations prior to July 1, 1996 include all of the related costs of doing business, including charges for the use of facilities and for employee benefits, and include an allocation of certain general corporate expenses of 3M which were not directly related to these businesses including costs for corporate logistics, corporate research and development, information technologies, finance, legal and corporate executives. Management believes these allocations were made on a reasonable basis. As of July 1, 1996, the effective date of the Distribution, the transfer of certain non-U.S. operations were pending subject to receipt of consents or approvals or satisfaction of other applicable foreign requirements. The Company is in the process of obtaining these consents and approvals and making the appropriate governmental filings and expects to finalize these foreign transfers in due course. The Company's consolidated financial statements reflect the consummation of all such transactions. The Company and 3M have entered into an agreement that allows for the businesses not yet transferred to continue to operate and for the Company to realize any income or losses generated from such businesses following the effective date of the Distribution. The Company believes that the delay in consummating these transfers will have no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. The financial information for periods prior to July 1, 1996 included herein, however, may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Company in the future or what the results of operations, financial position and cash flows would have been had the Company been a separate, independent company during the periods presented. STRATEGIC REORGANIZATION In late 1995, the Company initiated a review of all of its operations, including its organizational structure, manufacturing operations, products and markets, with the goal of maximizing its cash flows and improving net income. In connection with this review, the Company adopted a reorganization plan to rationalize its manufacturing operations, streamline its organizational structure and write-off impaired assets. The Company has recorded one-time pre-tax charges of approximately $240 million based upon the timing criteria required for the recognition of restructuring charges or upon incurrence for other one-time charges. The Company recorded $166 million of these charges in its 1995 statement of operations, primarily for the write-down of assets associated with its manufacturing rationalization programs. The remainder, primarily related to employee separations for direct employees of the Company and one-time charges associated with start-up activities, has been recorded in the first six months of 1996. No additional restructuring or one-time charges were recorded in the third quarter of 1996. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995: The following table displays the components of the Company's consolidated statements of operations as a percentage of total revenues. Three Months Ended September 30, -------------------- 1996 1995 ------ ------ Net revenues 100.0% 100.0% Cost of goods sold 64.8% 66.7% ----- ----- Gross profit 35.2% 33.3% Operating expenses: Selling, general and administrative 23.9% 23.6% Research and development 6.9% 9.9% ----- ----- Total 30.8% 33.5% Operating income (loss) 4.4% (0.2%) Interest expense and other 0.5% 0.8% ----- ----- Income (loss) before tax & minority interest 3.9% (1.0%) Income tax provision (benefit) 1.8% (0.4%) Minority interest - (0.3%) ----- ----- Net income (loss) 2.1% (0.3%) ===== ===== Net revenues for the third quarter of 1996 were $559.3 million, an increase of $13.1 million or 2.4 percent from the same period in 1995. This represented the first quarter over quarter increase in revenues in the last eleven quarters. Volume increases of 8.8 percent were offset by price declines of 5.1 percent and the negative effect of changes in currency exchange rates of 1.3 percent. Volume growth was at the highest rate of increase in the past two years and was primarily due to newly introduced products (principally DryView(TM) laser imagers and Travan(TM) data cartridges). Net revenues in the United States increased 1.5 percent with volume increases of 4.8 percent partially offset by pricing declines of 3.3 percent. Internationally, net revenues increased 3.3 percent. Volume increases of 13.2 percent were partially offset by price declines of 7.1 percent and a 2.8 percent negative effect of changes in currency exchange rates. International revenues accounted for 47.4 percent of third quarter 1996 revenues, up from 46.9 percent of total revenues for third quarter 1995. Gross profit in the third quarter of 1996 was $196.6 million or 35.2 percent of revenues, an increase of 1.9 percentage points from the third quarter of 1995. This increase is due to lower employee headcount, increased volume and lower raw material costs driven by better utilization and lower prices, partially offset by negative pricing pressure, foreign currency impacts and a negative impact from the sale of the Company's Sulmona, Italy facility. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $133.5 million or 23.9 percent of revenues, up 0.3 percentage points from the same period in 1995. Cost savings from reduced sales related costs, reduced employee headcount and the benefit realized from establishing a lower overhead cost structure were more than offset by start-up costs of $19.3 million related to supply chain development and identity development which are expected to continue through 1997. See additional discussion in "Future Outlook". Research and development costs totaled $38.6 million or 6.9 percent of revenues in the third quarter of 1996, down $15.3 million or 3.0 percentage points from the same period in 1995. This decrease is due to the implementation of a more efficient research and development cost structure including consolidation of laboratories from fourteen to seven, and higher than normal spending in 1995 reflecting investments made in a number of the Company's new products which came to market during 1995 and early 1996. See additional discussion in "Future Outlook". Operating income for the third quarter of 1996 was $24.5 million, or 4.4 percent of net revenues. This represents a $25.8 million increase from the $1.3 million operating loss in the same period in 1995. Third quarter non-operating expense was $2.5 million, down $1.8 million from the same quarter last year. This decrease was due to an increase in other income of $1.2 million, primarily interest income and currency transaction gains, and to lower interest expense due to lower average debt outstanding and a lower effective interest rate. Interest expense prior to July 1, 1996 was based on an assumed $250 million in outstanding debt and 3M's effective interest rate during the period. The allocation of interest expense for periods prior to July 1, 1996 is more fully discussed in Note 6 of the Notes to Historical Financial Statements included in the Company's Form 10 Registration Statement. The Company's effective tax rate was 46.4 percent compared to 42.3 percent in the third quarter of 1995. This increase is due to higher effective rates in certain international tax jurisdictions. Net income in the third quarter of 1996 was $11.8 million, or $.29 per share. This represents an improvement of $13.6 million or $0.33 per share from the same period in 1995. COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995: The following table sets forth the Company's consolidated statements of operations, restructuring and other one-time charges and the resulting adjusted balances for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 with comparative balances for the nine month period ended September 30, 1995. The adjusted balances are also presented as a percentage of revenues as are the results for the comparable period of 1995.

On a year-to-date basis, net revenues totaled $1,696.6 million, an increase of $8.7 million or 0.5 percent from the same period in 1995. Volume increases of 7.2 percent were offset by price declines of 5.2 percent and 1.5 percent from the negative effect of changes in currency exchange rates. Volume increases were driven primarily by newly introduced products (principally DryView(TM) laser imagers and Travan(TM) data cartridges). Net revenues in the United States increased 1.9 percent with volume increases of 5.5 percent partially offset by pricing declines of 3.6 percent. Internationally, net revenues decreased 0.8 percent. Volume increases of 8.9 percent were more than offset by price declines of 6.8 percent and a 2.9 percent negative effect of changes in currency exchange rates. International revenues accounted for 49.3% of total revenues compared with 50.0% in the same period in 1995. Gross profit for the first nine months of 1996 was $591.6 million. This includes special one-time charges of $7.9 million related to the write off of certain packaging materials in connection with the Distribution. Excluding these charges, gross profit would have been $599.5 million or 35.3 percent of revenues, an increase of 0.4 percentage points from the first nine months of 1995. This increase was primarily due to productivity improvements, volume increases and lower raw material costs driven by better utilization and lower prices, partially offset by lower selling prices and negative impact of changes in currency exchange rates. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $423.4 million. Excluding special one-time charges of $14.6 million related to the spin-off, selling, general and administrative expenses would have been $408.8 million or 24.1 percent of revenues, an increase of 0.1 percentage points from the same period in 1995. Reduced sales related costs, reduced employee headcount and the benefit realized from establishing a lower overhead cost structure were more than offset by start-up costs of $32.0 million related to supply chain development and identity development which are expected to continue through 1997. See additional discussion in "Future Outlook". Research and development costs totaled $132.1 million or 7.7 percent of revenues in the first nine months of 1996, down $36.1 million or 2.3 percentage points from the same period in 1995. This decrease is due to the implementation of a more efficient research and development cost structure including consolidation of laboratories from fourteen to seven, and higher than normal spending in 1995 reflecting investments made in a number of the Company's new products which came to market during 1995 and early 1996. See additional discussion in "Future Outlook". The Company recorded restructuring charges of $53.9 million in the first nine months of 1996. These charges primarily relate to employee separation programs. See additional discussion in "Strategic Reorganization". The operating loss for the first nine months of 1996 was $17.8 million. Excluding restructuring charges of $53.9 million and special one-time charges of $22.5 million, the Company would have had operating income of $58.6 million or 3.5 percent of revenues. This represents a $43.6 million increase from operating income in the same period in 1995 which totaled $15.0 million. Non-operating expense for the first nine months of 1996 was $7.9 million, down $6.3 million from the same period last year. This decrease was due to an increase in other income of $3.0 million, primarily related to investment gains prior to the Distribution and interest income, and to lower interest expense due to a lower effective interest rate. Interest expense prior to July 1, 1996 was based on an assumed $250 million in outstanding debt and 3M's effective interest rate during the period. The allocation of interest expense prior to July 1, 1996 is more fully discussed in Note 6 of the Notes to Historical Financial Statements in the Company's Form 10 Registration Statement. The Company's effective tax rate was 21.0 percent. Excluding restructuring and special one-time charges, the Company's effective tax rate was 44.2 percent, up slightly from the same period of 1995. Net loss year-to-date 1996 was $19.9 million. Excluding restructuring and special one-time charges, net income would have been $28.7 million resulting in earnings per share of $0.69. This represents an improvement of $26.2 million or $0.63 per share from the same period in 1995. FINANCIAL POSITION The Company had 3.0 months of inventory on hand at September 30, 1996, down from 3.4 months at December 31, 1995. Months in inventory have decreased due to better management of inventories as part of the supply chain development. The accounts receivable days sales outstanding was 78 days at September 30, 1996, unchanged from December 31, 1995. The book value of property, plant and equipment at September 30, 1996 was $474.1, a decrease of $39.1 million from $513.2 million at December 31, 1995. This decrease is primarily due to lower capital spending and the sale of the Company's Sulmona, Italy facility. The decrease from December 31, 1995 in other assets of $41.0 million was more than offset by the increase in other current assets of $60.9 million primarily due to changes in deferred tax assets as more of the temporary differences related to current items. Accounts payable at September 30, 1996 increased $66.9 million from December 31, 1995. This increase is driven by certain spin-off transactions that were not finalized prior to the end of the third quarter and payables to 3M for products and transitional services that were previously eliminated intercompany transactions. Other current liabilities increased $49.3 million from $125.9 million at December 31, 1995 to $175.2 million at September 30, 1996. This increase was driven by accruals for the special one-time charges and accruals for identity development and supply chain development costs. LIQUIDITY Prior to July 1, 1996, cash and equivalents and debt were not allocated to the Company from 3M since 3M uses a centralized approach to cash management and the financing of its operations. The Company's financing requirements prior to July 1, 1996 are represented by cash transactions with 3M and are reflected in "Net cash (paid to) received from 3M" in the statements of cash flows. This financial support was discontinued following the Distribution. Cash provided by operating activities was $264.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $126.0 million during the same period in 1995. The major non-cash items were depreciation which was $137.7 million compared to $141.5 million during the first nine months of 1995 and restructuring and other one-time charges of $76.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Working capital provided $88.1 million for the first nine months of 1996, an improvement of $113.0 million over the $24.9 million used in the comparable period of 1995. Cash provided by working capital was driven by a decrease in inventories and an increase in accounts payable. Accounts payable are expected to decrease in the fourth quarter in connection with the finalization of certain spin-off transactions. Cash used in investing activities was $109.7 million for the first nine months of 1996 compared to $143.0 million in the comparable period of 1995. Investing activities included capital expenditures of $115.9 million for the first nine months of 1996 compared to $135.4 million during the same period of 1995. Capital expenditures were higher in the nine months ended September 30, 1995 reflecting expenditures made for additional plant capacity for a number of the Company's new products that came to market during 1995 and early 1996. Financing activities during the first nine months of 1996 used cash of $22.4 million. Financing activities primarily related to the net borrowing of approximately $163.0 million under the Company's credit facility and subsidiary borrowings of $20.5 million primarily from banks outside the United States. Borrowings were principally used to pay 3M for certain overseas assets in connection with the Distribution, to repay certain intercompany indebtedness assumed by the Company in connection with the Distribution, and to fund a portion of the Company's ESOP. The Company expects its operations, exclusive of contemplated borrowings, to generate sufficient funds to meet the Company's operating needs for the next twelve months, including anticipated capital expenditures. At September 30, 1996, the Company's ratio of total debt to total capital is 17%. FUTURE OUTLOOK The Company's overall financial goal is to improve economic profit (which is measured as operating income after taxes in excess of the Company's cost of capital) by $150 million by the end of 1998. This goal is based on anticipated cost reductions, modest revenue growth and improved asset management resulting from the implementation of the Company's business strategy. The Company anticipates total cost savings (net of start-up expenses) during the three year period 1996-1998 of $90 million after taxes; or, $150 million on a pre-tax basis. Through the first three quarters of 1996, the Company's economic profit improved by $45 million. This improvement is driven by cost reductions, increased revenues and better management of operating capital due to the implementation of the Company's reorganization plan as well as other management actions. The Company continues to implement its reorganization plan including the closure or consolidation of five factory locations, the consolidation of laboratories from fourteen to seven and a reduction in the number of employees of more than 20%. As of September 30, 1996, the Company's headcount was 9,400, down from 9,700 it began with on July 1, 1996 and down from the 12,000 reported at March 31, 1996. The third quarter reduction reflects the continued impact of previously announced voluntary separation plans. The reduction from the level reported at March 31, 1996 reflects the aforementioned separation plans as well as the retention by 3M of staff services positions which had been allocated to the Company as part of 3M. In the near term, the majority of the costs related to the staff services support provided by these employees will continue to be incurred by the Company through transition support services agreements with 3M. The Company believes its current staffing levels are appropriate for the near term. The third quarter net benefit from establishing a lower cost overhead structure was approximately $14 million. This benefit was offset by the additional expenses incurred by the Company to establish itself as an independent public company. The Company expects to continue to incur these start-up costs through 1997 with the full benefit of the lower cost overhead structure being realized in 1998. Also in the third quarter, the Company announced the acquisition of Luminous Corporation, a pre-press software solutions company. In the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company will recognize a non-deductible charge of approximately $12 million for the write-off of the purchase price allocated to in-process research and development. Exclusive of the research and development charge, it is expected that this acquisition will not have a significant impact on operating results in 1996.

To be timely, a stockholder's notice to the Secretary must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than sixty (60) days nor more than ninety (90) days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that the annual meeting is called for a date that is not within ten (10) days before or after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder in order to be timely must be so received before the later of the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or the day on which public disclosure of the date of the annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs and the close of business on the day which is sixty (60) days prior to the date of the annual meeting.

Section 5. Unless otherwise restricted by the Restated Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors, or of any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board or of such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee. Section 6.

Such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, and unless otherwise specified therein, no acceptance of such resignation shall be necessary to make it effective. The Board may remove any officer with or without cause at any time. Any such removal shall be without prejudice to the contractual rights of such officer, if any, with the Corporation, but the election of an officer shall not of itself create contractual rights. Any vacancy occurring in any office of the Corporation by death, resignation, removal, or otherwise may be filled for the unexpired portion of the term by the Board at any regular or special meeting. Section 5. The officers of the Corporation shall have such powers and duties in the management of the Corporation as shall be stated in these Bylaws or in a resolution of the Board of Directors which is not inconsistent with these Bylaws, and, to the extent so stated, as generally pertain to their respective offices, subject to the control of the Board.

Section 2. Whenever notice is required to be given by law or under any provision of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice.

Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders, directors, or members of a committee of directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice unless so required by the Restated Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. ARTICLE XII INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Section 1. The Corporation shall indemnify, to the full extent authorized or permitted by law, any person made or threatened to be made a party, witness or participant in or to any action, suit, or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative, or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person or such person's testator or intestate is or was a Director, officer, or employee of the Corporation or serves or served at the request of the Corporation any other enterprise as a director, officer, or employee. Expenses incurred by any such person in defending any such action, suit, or proceeding or as a witness or participant shall be paid or reimbursed by the Corporation promptly upon receipt by it of an undertaking of such person to repay such expenses if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation. The rights provided to any person by this Section shall be enforceable against the Corporation by such person who shall be presumed to have relied upon it in serving or continuing to serve as a Director, officer, or employee. No amendment of this Section shall impair the rights of any person arising at any time with respect to events occurring prior to such amendment. For purposes of this Section, the term "Corporation" shall include any predecessor of the Corporation and any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed by the Corporation in a consolidation or merger; the term "other enterprise" shall include any corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or employee benefit plan; service "at the request of the Corporation" shall include service as a Director, officer, or employee of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such Director, officer, or employee with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participant or beneficiaries; any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to be indemnifiable expenses; and action by a person with respect to an employee benefit plan which such person reasonably believes to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of such plan shall be deemed to be action not opposed to the best interest of the Corporation. Section 2. The indemnification provided by these Bylaws shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled by any Bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested Directors or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Director, officer, or employee and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person. Section 3. The Corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of these Bylaws. ARTICLE XIII INTERESTED DIRECTORS Section 1. No contract or transaction between the Corporation and one or more of its Directors or officers, or between the Corporation and any other corporation, partnership, association, or other organization in which one or more of its Directors or officers are directors or officers, or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the Director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his or her or their votes are counted for such purpose, if: (i) the material facts as to his or her relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board or the committee, and the Board or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested Directors, even though the disinterested Directors be less than a quorum; or (ii) the material facts as to his or her relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved, or ratified by the Board, a committee thereof, or the stockholders. Common or interested Directors may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board or of a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction. ARTICLE XIV FORM OF RECORDS Section 1. Any records maintained by the Corporation in the regular course of its business, including its stock ledger, books of account, and minute books, may be kept on, or be in the form of, punch cards, magnetic tape, photographs, microphotographs, or any other information storage device, provided that the records so kept can be converted into clearly legible form within a reasonable time. The Corporation shall so convert any records so kept upon the request of any person entitled to inspect the same. ARTICLE XV AMENDMENTS Section 1. Subject to any limitations imposed by the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors shall have power to adopt, amend, or repeal these Bylaws. Any Bylaws made by the directors under the powers conferred by the Restated Certificate of Incorporation may be amended or repealed by the directors or by the stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other provisions of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws (and notwithstanding that a lesser percentage may be specified by law), no provisions of these Bylaws shall be adopted, amended or repealed by the stockholders without an affirmative vote of the holders of not less than eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, considered for the purposes of this Section as a single class. EX-10.1 3 Exhibit 10.1 INDEMNITY AGREEMENT This Indemnity Agreement, dated as of ____________________ by and between Imation Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") and __________________, a director of the Company (the "Indemnitee"). RECITALS A. The company is aware that competent and experienced persons are increasingly reluctant to serve as directors of corporations unless they are protected by comprehensive liability insurance or indemnification, due to increased exposure to litigation costs and risks resulting from their service to such corporations, and due to the fact that the exposure frequently bears no reasonable relationship to the compensation of such directors; B. The statutes and judicial decisions regarding the duties of directors are often difficult to apply, ambiguous, or conflicting, and therefore fail to provide such directors with adequate, reliable knowledge of legal risks to which they are exposed or information regarding the proper course of action to take; C. Plaintiffs often seek damages in such large amounts and the costs of litigation may be so enormous (whether or not the case is meritorious), that the defense and/or settlement of such litigation is often beyond the personal resources of directors; D. The Company believes that it is unfair for its directors to assume the risk of huge judgments and other expenses which may occur in cases in which the director received no personal profit and in cases where the director was not culpable; E. Based upon their experience, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") has concluded that, to retain and attract talented and experienced individuals to serve directors of the Company and to encourage such individuals to take the business risks necessary for the success of the Company and its subsidiaries, it is necessary for the Company to contractually indemnify its directors, and to assume for itself maximum liability for expenses and damages in connection with claims against such directors in connection with their service to the Company, and has further concluded that the failure to provide such contractual indemnification could result in harm to the Company and its shareholders; F. The Delaware General Corporation Law under which the Company is organized empowers the Company to indemnify its officers, directors, employees and agents by agreement and to indemnify persons who serve, at the request of the Company, as the directors, officers, employees or agents of other corporations or enterprises, and expressly provides that the indemnification provided by Section 145 is not exclusive; G. As a result of circumstances that may have no relation to, or that may be beyond the control of, the Company or the Indemnitee, there can be no assurance of the adequacy of, or continuation or renewal of current liability insurance coverage for its directors. The Company believes, therefore, that the interests of the Company's shareholder would best be served by a combination of such insurance and the indemnification by the Company of the directors of the Company; H. The Company desires and has requested the Indemnitee to serve or continue to serve as a director of the Company free from undue concern for claims for damages arising out of or related to such services to the Company; and I. The Indemnitee is willing to serve, or to continue to serve, the Company, provided that he or she is furnished the Indemnity provided for herein. AGREEMENT NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 1. Definitions. (a) Agent. or the purposes of this Agreement, "agent" of the Company means any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or other agent of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company; or is or was serving at the request of, for the convenience of, or to represent the interests of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise; or was a director, officer, employee or agent of a foreign or domestic corporation which was a predecessor corporation of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, or was a director, officer, employee or agent of another enterprise at the request of, for the convenience of, or to represent the interests of such predecessor corporation. (b) Expenses. For purpose; of this Agreement, "expenses" includes all direct and indirect costs Of any type or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees and related disbursements, other out-of-pocket costs) actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with either the investigation, defense or appeal of a proceeding or establishing or enforcing a right to indemnification under this Agreement, Section 145, or otherwise; provided, however, that expenses shall not include amounts for which the Company is prohibited by law from providing indemnification. (c) Proceeding. For the purpose of this Agreement, "proceeding" means any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or any other type whatsoever. (d) Subsidiary. For purposes of this Agreement, "subsidiary" means any corporation of which more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities is owned directly or indirectly by the Company, by the Company and one or more other subsidiaries, or by one or more other subsidiaries. 2. Agreement to Serve. The Indemnitee agrees to serve and/or continue to serve as a director of the Company, so long as the Indemnitee is duly appointed or elected and qualified in accordance with the applicable provisions of the by-laws of the Company or until such time as the Indemnitee tenders his or her resignation in writing, provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to create any right to continued employment or Board membership by Indemnitee. 3. Maintenance of Liability Insurance. (a) The Company hereby covenants and agrees that, so long as the Indemnitee shall continue to serve as an agent of the Company and thereafter so long as the Indemnitee shall be subject to any possible proceeding by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee was an agent of the Company, the Company, subject to Section 3(c), shall promptly obtain and maintain in full force and effect directors' and officers' liability insurance ("D&O Insurance") in reasonable amounts from established and reputable insurers. (b) In all policies of D&O Insurance, the Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide the Indemnitee the same rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company's directors. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to obtain or maintain D&O Insurance if the Company determines in good faith that such insurance is not reasonably available, the premium costs for such insurance are disproportionate to the amount of coverage provided, the coverage provided by such insurance is limited by exclusions so as to provide an insufficient benefit, or the Indemnitee is covered by similar insurance maintained by a subsidiary of the Company. 4. Mandatory Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee: (a) Third Party Actions. If the Indemnitee is a person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was an agent of the Company, or by reason of anything done or not done by him or her in any such capacity, against any and all expenses and liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such proceeding if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; and (b) Derivative Actions. If the Indemnitee is a person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was an agent of the Company, or by reason of anything done or not done by the Indemnitee in any such capacity, against any and all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement, or appeal of such proceeding if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company; such indemnification shall also be granted if the Court of Chancery or the court in which such proceeding was brought shall determine upon application, that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such amounts which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper; and (c) Actions where Indemnitee is Deceased. If the Indemnitee died before his or her right to indemnification is determined or, after determination, but before indemnification is paid, the Indemnitee's right to indemnification shall survive and shall be determined and paid as if the Indemnitee had survived. 5. Partial Indemnification. If the Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of any expenses or liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, and amounts paid in settlement) incurred by the Indemnitee in the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of a proceeding but not entitled, however, to indemnification for all of the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify the Indemnitee for such total amount except as to the portion thereof to which the Indemnitee is not entitled. 6. Mandatory Advancement of Expenses. Subject to Section 8(a) below, the Company shall advance all reasonable expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of any proceeding to which the Indemnitee is a party or is threatened to be made a party by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was an agent of the Company. Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay such amounts advanced only if, and to the extent that, it shall ultimately be determined pursuant to Section 8 hereof that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized hereby. The advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company to the Indemnitee within twenty (20) days following delivery of a written request therefor by the Indemnitee to the Company. Any such request shall reasonably evidence the expenses and costs incurred or to be incurred by Indemnitee hereunder. Any dispute concerning the advancement of expenses may, at the election of Indemnitee, be resolved by binding arbitration before one neutral arbitrator in accordance with the Center for Public Resources, New York, New York ("CPR") Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration of Business Disputes. If the Company and the Indemnitee encounter difficulty in agreeing on an arbiter, they will seek assistance or CPR in the selection process. In any dispute concerning Indemnitee's right to the advancement of expenses, Indemnitee shall be presumed to be entitled to such advancement and the Company shall bear the burden to prove by clear and convincing evidence that Indemnitee is not so entitled. 7. Notice and Other Indemnification Procedures. (a) Promptly after receipt by the Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of or the threat of commencement of any proceeding, the Indemnitee shall, if the Indemnitee believes that Indemnification with respect thereto may be sought from the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement or threat of commencement thereof. Indemnitee will be presumed to have met the standard of conduct entitling him or her to indemnification; the Company shall be entitled to try to rebut the presumption in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8 below. (b) If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of the commencement of a proceeding pursuant to Section 7(a) hereof, the Company has D&O Insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. (c) If the Company shall be obligated to pay the expenses of any proceeding against the Indemnitee, the Company, if appropriate, shall be entitled to assume the defense of such proceeding, with counsel reasonably approved by the Indemnitee, upon the delivery to the Indemnitee of written notice of its election so to do. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by the Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to the Indemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee with respect to the same proceeding, provided that (i) the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ counsel in any such proceeding at the Indemnitee's expense; and (ii) if (A) the employment of counsel by the Indemnitee has been previously authorized by the Company, (B) the Indemnitee or counsel selected by the Company shall have concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and the Indemnitee or among Indemnitees jointly represented in the conduct of any such defense or (C) the Company shall not, in fact, have employed counsel to assume the defense of such proceeding, then fees and expenses of Indemnitee's counsel shall be at the expense of the Company. 8. Determination of Right to Indemnification. (a) To the extent the Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any proceeding referred to in subsections 4(a), 4(b) or 4(c) of this Agreement or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter described therein, the Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, or appeal of such proceeding. (b) To determine Indemnitee's right to indemnification other than as provided in subsection 8(a), Indemnitee shall be presumed to have met the standard of care entitling him or her to indemnification. The Company shall bear the burden to prove that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification. Such determination shall be made by: (1) A majority vote of a quorum of the Board consisting of directors who are not parties to the proceeding for which indemnification is being sought; (2) The shareholders of the Company; (3) Legal counsel selected by the board, and reasonably approved by the Indemnitee, which counsel shall make such determination in a written opinion; or (4) One neutral arbitrator who shall be a litigation or corporate attorney with experience in the area of director or officer indemnification. The arbitrator shall be selected within 30 days of the demand for arbitration and shall render his or her decision within 60 days after the Company and the Indemnitee have completed the submission of their respective cases, unless good cause be shown as to why a longer time for decision is necessary. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the CPR Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration or Business Disputes. If the Company and the Indemnitee encounter difficulty in agreeing on an arbiter, they will seek assistance of CPR in the selection process. (c) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee against all expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any hearing or proceeding under this Section 8 involving the Indemnitee and against all expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any other proceeding between the Company and the Indemnitee involving the interpretation or enforcement of the rights of the Indemnitee under this Agreement unless a court of competent jurisdiction finds that each of the claims and/or defenses of the Indemnitee in any such proceeding was frivolous or made in bad faith, in which case Indemnitee will repay the amounts previously paid, and will do so within 20 days following written demand. The indemnification provided to Indemnitee in this section shall be paid by Company on a current basis (i.e., no later than 20 days following written demand). 9. Exceptions. Any other provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (a) Claims Initiated by Indemnitees. To indemnify or advance expenses to the Indemnitee with respect to proceedings or claims initiated or brought voluntarily by the Indemnitee and not by way of defense ("defense" includes contribution or indemnification or proceedings to enforce proportionate fault rules where applicable), except with respect to proceedings brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification under this Agreement or any other statute or law or otherwise, but such indemnification or advancement of expenses may be provided by the Company in specific cases if the Board of Directors finds it to be appropriate; or (b) Lack of Good Faith. To indemnify the Indemnitee for any expenses incurred by the Indemnitee with respect to any proceeding instituted by the Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by the Indemnitee in such proceeding was not made in good faith or was frivolous; or (c) Unauthorized Settlements. To indemnify the Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of a proceeding unless the Company consents to such settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 10. Non-exclusivity. The provisions for indemnification and advancement of expenses set forth in this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights which the Indemnitee may have under any provision of law, the Company's certificate of incorporation or bylaws, the vote of the Company's shareholders or disinterested directors, other agreements, or otherwise, both as to action in the Indemnitee's official capacity and to action in another capacity while occupying his or her position as an agent of the company, and the Indemnitee's rights hereunder shall continue after the Indemnitee has ceased acting as an agent of the Company and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of the Indemnitee. 11. Interpretation of Agreement. It is understood that the parties hereto intend this Agreement to be interpreted and enforced so as to provide indemnification to the Indemnitee to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by law. 12. Severability. It any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of the Agreement (including without limitation, all portions or any paragraphs of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that are not themselves invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and (ii) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, all portions of any paragraph of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that are not themselves invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable and to give effect to Section 12 hereof. 13. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver. 14. Successors and Assigns. The terms of this agreement shall bind, and shall inure to the benefit of, the successors and assigns of the parties hereto. 15. Notice. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given (i) if delivered by hand and receipted for by the party addressee or (ii) if mailed by certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, on the third business day after the mailing date. Addresses for notice to either party are as shown on the signature page of this Agreement, or as subsequently modified by written notice. 16. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed exclusively by and construed according to the laws of the State of Delaware, as applied to contracts between Delaware residents entered into and to be performed entirely within Delaware. 17.

The parties hereto have entered into this Indemnity Agreement effective as of date first above written. EX-11 4 EXHIBIT 11
