See accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. 6 R. R. DONNELLEY & SONS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES ------------ NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Note 1. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited (although the balance sheet at December 31, 1994 is condensed from the audited balance sheet at that date) and have been prepared by the company to conform with the requirements applicable to this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Certain information and disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been omitted as permitted by such requirements. However, the company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the company's 1994 annual report on Form 10-K. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect, in the opinion of the company, all adjustments (which include only normal, recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial information for such periods. Note 2. Components of the company's inventories at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 were as follows:

7 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--COMPARISON OF FIRST QUARTER 1995 TO FIRST QUARTER 1994 Net sales increased 23.1% from the prior year reflecting increased material sales, strong demand across most business units and continued growth in foreign operations. Approximately one-half of the first quarter revenue growth was related to higher materials sales, mainly paper provided to customers. Higher volume in the quarter was also attributed to increased demand in telecommunications, primarily from the start-up of the recently announced Southwestern Bell contract, and in book publishing services. Net sales from foreign operations were 70% higher than the prior year and represented more than 13% of consolidated sales in the quarter. The growth in foreign sales reflected volume increases and new operations in Europe, Asia and Latin America. Strong growth in foreign sales is expected to continue throughout 1995. Gross profit increased 18.6%, reflecting higher volume partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization, increased start-up expenses associated with recent capital expenditures and the impact of higher paper costs, which are generally recovered, but at low margins. Tight market conditions for certain grades of paper are expected to continue for the remainder of 1995, but are not expected to have a significant impact on the company due to guaranteed quantity allocations from suppliers coupled with the company's production efficiencies and ability to substitute different grades of paper. Selling and administrative expenses were 17.5% higher than the prior year, due to higher volume, recent expansions and new operations. Earnings from operations increased 20% over the prior year, reflecting the slightly lower ratio of selling and administrative expenses to gross profit. Interest expense increased $10.9 million resulting from both higher debt balances to fund acquisitions and expansions and higher interest rates. Net income grew 9.5%, primarily due to volume increases, partially offset by higher interest expense. Earnings per share were $0.31, up 10.7%, reflecting net income growth and fewer average shares outstanding. On April 21, 1995, the company merged its Global Software Services business unit with Corporate Software Inc. to form Stream International Inc. ("Stream"), the world's largest manufacturer and reseller of computer software and related services. The company owns approximately 80% of Stream and will account for the merger as a purchase. The merger will add an estimated $400 million to consolidated net sales in 1995 and is expected to have no material impact on consolidated net income in 1995. Management expects the merger to have a positive effect on consolidated sales and net income in 1996. CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION With the growth in cash flow and the credit facilities and shelf registration discussed below, management believes the company has the financial strength and flexibility to fund current operations and growth. Net income plus depreciation and amortization was $139.0 million, up 16.9% from the prior year. Capital expenditures during the first three months totaled $107.7 million, including purchases of new equipment to meet the growing needs of present and new customers and expansion of manufacturing plants. Full year capital spending is expected to be $400 million. Working capital increased $74.3 million from December 31, 1994, due to increased inventories to support business growth and higher paper prices, higher prepaid expenses (relating to VEBA payments and deposits for paper) and lower accrued compensation (reflecting higher year-end commission and bonus accruals), which were partially offset by higher deferred tax liabilities. At March 31, 1995, the company had an unused revolving credit facility of $550 million with a number of banks. This credit facility provides support for the issuance of commercial paper and other credit needs. At March 31, 1995, the company had an effective shelf registration statement permitting it to issue, from time to time, up to $300 million of debt securities in the form of medium- term notes. The company also had an effective shelf registration statement permitting it to issue, from time to time, up to an additional $500 million of debt securities. The company has no current intention to issue debt securities under the latter registration statement in 1995. 8 PART II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. In January, 1995, an administrative complaint by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region V ("Region V") seeking $304,500 in penalties was filed against the company's Warsaw, Indiana facility alleging violations of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The complaint alleges that filtercake from wastewater treatment operations was mischaracterized by the company as non-hazardous waste. The complaint also alleges failure to give certain land disposal restriction notices. The company subsequently submitted evidence to Region V that the proper notifications were given in all but two instances, and Region V has requested that the allegations relating to those notices be dropped. Region V has also filed a Motion for Accelerated Decision. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS. (a) The company held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders on March 23, 1995.

At the Effective Time, each SHI Management Option which is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and, except to the extent otherwise agreed to by the holder thereof, replaced by: (i) a Newco Management Replacement Option representing the right to purchase the number of shares of Newco Class B-V Common (rounded up or down to the nearest full share) that would have been distributable pursuant to the Merger in respect of the maximum number of shares of SHI Class A Common issuable upon exercise of such SHI Management Option (assuming that any vesting requirements applicable thereto had been waived prior to such exercise) at an exercise price equal to the number obtained by multiplying (x) the exercise price per share of SHI Class A Common under the terms of such SHI Management Option in effect at the date hereof by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Newco Class B-V Common issuable upon exercise of such Newco Management Replacement Option and the denominator of which is the number of shares of SHI Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such SHI Management Option (assuming that any vesting requirements applicable thereto had been waived prior to such exercise); and (ii) an interest in the Incentive Option (contingent to the extent of any vesting requirements applicable to the Newco Management Replacement Option). -82- Except to the extent (if any) otherwise agreed to in writing by Newco, each Newco Management Replacement Option will become exercisable at the time(s) and subject to the same vesting requirements as apply to the SHI Management Option which it replaces, subject to acceleration of vesting on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Newco Management Replacement Option Plan. 6.10. REFINANCING OF SHI DEBT. Newco has entered into a Credit Agreement with The First National Bank of Chicago, as Administrative Agent, and the banks named therein, providing for a credit facility of up to $200 million. In the event such credit facility is available on the Closing Date, Newco shall, at the Effective Time, borrow such funds thereunder as shall be necessary to, and shall use such funds to (i) repay all amounts due under the credit arrangements of SHI and the SHI Subsidiaries listed in Schedule 6.10, including without limitation, the unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest owing thereunder as of the Closing Date and all expenses owing thereunder in connection with such repayment, (the "SHI Debt"), and (ii) pay the redemption price of the SHI Intermediate Preferred Stock provided in Article IV(c)(2) of the Certificate of Incorporation of SHI Intermediate. In the event such credit facility (or another credit facility having terms substantially similar thereto) is not available on the Closing Date (x) RRD and Newco shall, immediately prior to the Effective Time, enter into a credit agreement having terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to RRD, Newco and SHI providing for the loan from RRD to Newco of up to $200 million, payable no later than two years following the Effective Time and bearing interest at a rate per annum equal to the corporate base rate of interest announced by The First National Bank of Chicago from time to time, and (y) Newco shall at the Effective Time, borrow such funds thereunder as shall be necessary to, and shall use such funds to, make the payments contemplated by the preceding sentence. 6.11. REDEMPTION OF SHI INTERMEDIATE PREFERRED STOCK. SHI shall take all action necessary to cause all shares of SHI Intermediate Preferred Stock to be redeemed at the Effective Time pursuant to Article IV(c)(2) of the Certificate of Incorporation of SHI Intermediate. The funds necessary to pay the redemption price for such shares will be provided in the manner described in Section 6.10. 6.12. EXERCISE OF SHI CLASS A WARRANTS AND SHI CLASS B WARRANTS. SHI shall promptly notify the holders of the Class A Warrants and the Class B Warrants of the execution of this Agreement. SHI shall use reasonable efforts to cause the holders of the Class A Warrants and the Class B Warrants to exercise such warrants prior to the Effective Time. -83- 6.13. CONTRIBUTION TO NEWCO SUB.

ARTICLE VII ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS 7.1. NOTICE OF SHI STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL; NOTICE OF POSSIBLE APPRAISAL RIGHTS. SHI shall, as contemplated by Section 228(d) of the Delaware Law, give prompt notice of the approval of this Agreement and the SHI Ancillary Agreements by less than unanimous written consent of the SHI stockholders to all SHI stockholders who have not so consented in writing. Promptly following the Effective Time, SHI shall distribute to each holder of SHI Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time who did not so consent in writing an information statement and notification of possible appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware Law. RRD and Newco shall use all reasonable efforts to provide such information and assistance as SHI may request in connection with the preparation and delivery of such information statement. 7.2. EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. (a) Offers of Employment to Certain Persons. RRD or RRD Norwest shall terminate each person (other than any person who is an employee of RRD and who performs services for Newco or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of a leasing arrangement between RRD and Newco or any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries (a "RRD Leased Employee")) employed in a facility included in the RRD GSS Assets or RRD Norwest GSS Assets on and as of the Closing Date. Newco (or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) shall hire on the Closing Date, effective as of the close of business on the Closing Date, on an "at will" basis, each of those persons who are terminated by RRD or RRD Norwest on the Closing Date pursuant to the preceding sentence. Subject to the penultimate sentence of this Section 7.2(a), nothing contained in this Section 7.2(a) is intended or shall be deemed to (i) require Newco to employ such persons for any fixed or pre-determined time after the Closing Date, or (ii) confer upon any employee of RRD or RRD Norwest, past, present, or future, any rights of employment of any nature, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of this Section 7.2(a) are intended to set forth an agreement among RRD and Newco and are not intended to benefit any persons not party to this agreement, including such employees. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, -84- Newco (or its direct or indirect subsidiaries) shall continue to employ after the Closing Date such number of those persons employed with RRD or RRD Norwest prior to the Closing Date who accepted Newco's (or its direct or indirect subsidiary's) offer of employment, for such period of time as is necessary to ensure compliance, by each of RRD, RRD Norwest, Newco and, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, under the Worker Adjustment Retraining Notification Act (the "WARN Act") in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. For purposes of section 2.1 of the R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company Separation Pay Plan, the transaction contemplated by this agreement, including the termination of employment of employees by RRD or RRD Norwest and their subsequent reemployment by Newco, shall be deemed to constitute a transfer of the ownership of part of the assets of an employer to another party and therefore shall be deemed not to constitute, result in or involve involuntary separation from employment by an employer. (b) Employee Benefits Provided to Eligible RRD Newco Employees. (1) Welfare Plans. (A) Post-Closing Eligibility for RRD Welfare Plans. For the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending December 31, 1995 (unless agreed otherwise in writing by an officer at the level of Vice-President or above of RRD and Newco (or, if applicable, any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries)), each Eligible RRD Newco Employee (as defined in Section 7.2(b)(6) below) shall be eligible to participate in the following RRD benefit plans (subject to such Eligible RRD Newco Employee's satisfaction of each plan's eligibility requirements and the terms and conditions of each such plan): Donnelley Comprehensive Medical Plan; Donnelley Dental Benefit Plan; Donnelley Basic Survivor, Optional Life, AD&D Plan; Travel and Workplace Accident Insurance Plan; Donnelley Dependent Life, AD&D Plan; Donnelley Long-Term Disability Income Plan; Donnelley Sick Benefit Plan; Donnelley Health Care Flexible Spending Plan; Donnelley Dependent Care Assistance Plan and Donnelley Educational Assistance Plan. No employee of Newco shall be eligible for any retiree welfare benefits from Newco under any of the plans listed in the previous sentence, and RRD shall amend the plans as necessary to reflect the terms of this Section 7.2. Each Eligible RRD Newco Employee who is eligible to participate in the RRD Welfare Plans shall be credited with (I) deductibles and co-payments paid by such employee during 1995 prior to such person's employment with Newco, and (II) periods of service with RRD or RRD Norwest for all purposes under such plans. -85- Any Eligible RRD Newco Employee who is covered under the Donnelley Comprehensive Medical Plan and/or the Donnelley Dental Benefit Plan immediately prior to the date on which Newco ceases to be a participating employer in such plans shall not have any condition excluded from coverage under any medical and/or dental plans which Newco establishes to replace such Donnelley plans (the "Newco Medical Plans") due to a preexisting condition limitation under such plans to the extent such Eligible RRD Newco Employee was not precluded from receiving coverage for such condition under the Donnelley Comprehensive Medical Plan and/or the Donnelley Dental Plan. RRD shall reimburse Newco for the difference between (A) the estimated cost to provide coverage for twelve months from the Closing Date under the Newco Medical Plans if such plans contained an exclusion from coverage for preexisting catastrophic conditions (including, but not limited to, cancer, AIDS and birth defects) involving catastrophic expenses and (B) the actual cost to provide the coverage described in the preceding sentence for the same twelve-month period. With respect to the estimated cost described in subclause (A) of the preceding sentence, Newco shall obtain at least three estimates which are reasonable and competitive, the lowest of which shall be used. If it is not possible or administratively reasonable to obtain the estimated cost described in subclause (A) of the second preceding sentence, the parties may agree in writing, by officers at the level of Vice-President or above of RRD and Newco (or, if applicable, any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries), to an alternative method of allocating costs of the coverage described in the first sentence of this paragraph. (B) Additional Benefits for Certain Employees. (I) Persons Who Have Attained Age 55 and 10 Years of Service. Each Eligible RRD Newco Employee who, determined as of the Closing Date, has attained age 55 and who has at least 10 years of continuous service with RRD shall be eligible to receive benefits from RRD under the following RRD plans (subject to such Eligible RRD Newco Employee's satisfaction of each plan's eligibility requirements and the terms and conditions of such plans) in addition to the plans listed in Section 7.2(a)(1) above: Retiree Medical Plan and Retiree Group Life Insurance Plan (provided that the amount of coverage shall be based on the employee's compensation rate in effect as of the Closing Date, and step down rates shall apply to such compensation rate on the first day following such person's termination of employment). Such benefit coverage shall not commence until after termination of employment with Newco (and, if applicable, any of its -86- direct or indirect subsidiaries, or if such person is transferred to RRD, termination of employment with RRD). (II) Employees Who Have Attained Age 52 and 7 Years of Service. Notwithstanding the eligibility provisions of the RRD Retiree Medical and Retiree Group Life Insurance Plans to the contrary, each Eligible RRD Newco Employee who, determined as of the Closing Date, has attained age 52 and who has at least 7 years of continuous service with RRD shall be credited with continuous service for the period employed up to 3 years from the Closing Date with Newco or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries for purposes of determining whether such employee is eligible to receive benefits under the RRD Retiree Medical and Retiree Group Life Insurance Plans (provided that the amount of coverage shall be based on the employee's compensation rate in effect as of the Closing Date, and step down rates shall apply to such compensation rate on the first day following such person's termination of employment). Such benefit coverage shall not commence until after termination of employment with Newco (and, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, or if such person is transferred to RRD, termination of employment with RRD). (III) Definition of Continuous Service. For purposes of this Section 7.2(b)(1)(B), "continuous service with RRD" shall not be interpreted to include service with any entity prior to RRD's acquisition thereof or assets relating thereto. (C) Welfare Plan Expenses. (I) Newco to Pay Costs of Benefits Other Than Retiree Welfare Benefits. With respect to each Eligible RRD Newco Employee who satisfies the applicable eligibility requirements of the RRD plans described in Section 7.2(b)(1)(A), Newco (or, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) shall pay RRD a fee which is determined by RRD using the same methodology which RRD uses to determine the assessments applicable to RRD's other subsidiaries and divisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Newco shall not pay RRD a corporate assessment with respect to the RRD Sick Benefit Plan and Educational Assistance Plan but instead shall pay directly the cost to provide such benefits. (II) RRD to Pay Costs of Retiree Welfare Benefits. RRD shall pay all costs associated with the -87- provision of the benefits described in Section 7.2(b)(1)(B) to each Eligible RRD Newco Employee who is entitled to receive such benefits and shall be responsible for the provision of the benefits to Eligible RRD Newco Employees pursuant to the provisions of the applicable plans and this Section 7.2. Nothing in this Section 7.2 shall obligate Newco or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries to assist any Eligible RRD Newco Employee to enforce any rights such employee may have with respect to any of the employee benefits described in this Section 7.2. Nothing in this Section 7.2 shall obligate RRD to undertake any additional administrative responsibilities with respect to the provision of benefits to Eligible RRD Newco Employees other than the administrative responsibilities which it routinely performs for any of its other subsidiaries which have adopted its benefit plans or which it provided prior to the Closing Date with respect to the Eligible RRD Newco Employees. (2) Tax Qualified Plans. (A) RRD Savings Plan. During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending no later than June 30, 1995 (unless agreed otherwise in writing by an officer at the level of Vice-President or above of RRD and Newco (or, if applicable, any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries)), each Eligible RRD Newco Employee who is employed by RRD or one of its Affiliates or by Newco (or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) as of the Closing Date shall be eligible to participate in the Donnelley Deferred Compensation and Voluntary Savings Plan (the "RRD Savings Plan"). Effective as of the Closing Date, Newco (or, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) shall take any action necessary to become an "Employer" as such term is defined in the RRD Savings Plan. Subject to applicable law and the provisions of the RRD Savings Plan, effective as of the first day of the calendar month following the calendar month in which Newco (or, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) establishes a defined contribution plan (or effective as of any other date as agreed to in writing by the plan administrator for the RRD Savings Plan and the plan administrator for the Newco defined contribution plan), the account balances of Eligible RRD Newco Employees shall be spun off from the RRD Savings Plan and merged into Newco's defined contribution plan. (B) RRD Pension Plan. No employee (other than a RRD Leased Employee) of Newco or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries shall be eligible to participate in the Retirement Benefit Plan of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company -88- (the "RRD Pension Plan") following the Closing Date. Subject to applicable law, RRD shall amend the RRD Pension Plan to provide each Eligible RRD Newco Employee who has five years of continuous service with RRD and who has attained age 40 as of the Closing Date with an additional benefit equal to three times 1.75% of their 1994 covered wages under the RRD Pension Plan. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, to the extent necessary to comply with applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and/or ERISA, the additional benefit described in the preceding sentence may be paid to certain Eligible RRD Newco Employees from the R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company Unfunded Supplemental Benefit Plan or out of RRD's general corporate assets. For purposes of this Section 7.2(b)(2)(B), "continuous service with RRD" shall not be interpreted to include service with any entity prior to RRD's acquisition thereof or assets relating thereto. (C) Termination of Employment for Plan Purposes. Subject to approval by the Internal Revenue Service, each Eligible RRD Newco Employee shall be treated as having terminated employment with an "Employer" as defined in the RRD Pension Plan and the Donnelley Tax Credit Stock Ownership Plan as of the Closing Date. No Eligible RRD Newco Employee who as of the Closing Date accepts an offer of employment from Newco (or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) shall be treated as having terminated employment with an "Employer" as defined in the RRD Savings Plan as of the Closing Date. (3) Information to Be Provided to RRD. Newco (or, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) shall provide any information which RRD may reasonably require, including but not limited to information relating to dates of termination of employment, in order to provide benefits to an Eligible RRD Newco Employee under the terms and conditions described herein and under the applicable RRD plans. Any information relating to an employee's termination of employment shall be provided by Newco (or, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) to RRD as soon as available to Newco or any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries. (4) Donnelley Shares Program. Each Eligible RRD Newco Employee who has options to acquire common stock of RRD outstanding under the Donnelley Shares program on the Closing Date, which options terminate upon such Eligible RRD Newco Employee's termination of employment with RRD or RRD Norwest, shall receive from RRD cash equal to the difference between the exercise price of each such option and the Fair Market Value (as hereinafter defined) of RRD shares in cancellation of such outstanding options. For purposes of the preceding sentence, Fair Market Value shall be greater of (1) the average of the high and low transaction prices (as reported in the New York -89- Stock Exchange-Composite Transactions) in trading of Company Stock on the Closing Date, or if the Closing Date is not a trading day, the trading day next following the Closing Date, and (2) the average of the high and low transaction prices (as reported in the New York Stock Exchange-Composite Transactions) in trading of Company Stock during the 30-day period ending on the Closing Date. (5) Stock Purchase Plan. Any Eligible RRD Newco Employee who, as of the Closing Date, is eligible to participate in the 1993 Stock Purchase Plan for Selected Managers and Key Staff Employees shall be eligible to continue to participate in such plan for the period between the Closing Date and December 31, 1995. (6) Definition of Eligible RRD Newco Employee. For purposes of this Section 7.2, "Eligible RRD Newco Employee" shall mean any person employed in a facility included in the RRD GSS Assets or RRD Norwest GSS Assets, other than any RRD Leased Employee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) any Eligible RRD Newco Employee who as of the Closing Date is eligible to receive welfare benefits under any of the plans described in Section 7.2(b)(1)(A) and/or to participate in the RRD Savings Plan pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(2)(A) shall not cease to be an Eligible RRD Newco Employee on account of such employee's transfer to the SHI portion of Newco (or, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries), and (B) RRD and Newco (or, if applicable, any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries) may agree to modify the definition of Eligible RRD Newco Employee. (7) Right to Terminate Participation. Except to the extent limited by law, nothing contained in this Section 7.2 shall prevent (A) Newco (or, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) from electing to withdraw from participation in all (but not any individual) RRD employee welfare benefit plan at any time (provided, however, that Newco may elect to withdraw from participation in the Donnelley Sick Benefit Plan and/or the Donnelley Educational Assistance Plan at any time even if it continues its participation in the other R&D employee welfare benefit plans), or (B) RRD and Newco (or, if applicable, any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries) from agreeing to modify the terms of such participation at any time. (8) RRD's Right to Amend Plans. Except to the extent limited by law, nothing contained in this Section 7.2 shall preclude RRD from amending any of its employee benefit plans; provided, however, that no amendment shall preclude participation by Newco or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries in such RRD employee benefit plans, or otherwise substantially change the rights or benefits of Eligible RRD Newco Employees under such plans (unless the rights of RRD employees under such plans are similarly altered), unless agreed otherwise in writing by an officer at the level of Vice- -90- President or above of RRD and Newco (or, if applicable, any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries). RRD shall provide notice to Newco (or, if applicable, to any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries) within a reasonable time following the date on which RRD adopts any material amendment to any employee benefit plan which Newco (or, if applicable, any of Newco's direct or indirect subsidiaries) has adopted. (9) Assignment of Salary Reduction Agreements From RRD to Newco. On the Closing Date (or any date thereafter on which any employee is transferred from RRD to Newco or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries), RRD shall assign to Newco, and Newco shall assume, (A) all salary reduction agreements pursuant to which Eligible RRD Newco Employees have elected to make contributions to the RRD Savings Plan, Flexible Spending Arrangement, Dependent Care & Assistance Plan or any other RRD welfare plans adopted by Newco on or after the Closing Date and all other RRD Savings Plan elections, and (B) any elections made by Eligible RRD Newco Employees under any of the RRD welfare plans adopted by Newco on or after the Closing Date and all such elections shall be deemed to continue in form or substance with respect to compensation earned from Newco (or any its direct or indirect subsidiaries). Newco shall withhold such contributions as described in such reduction agreements and elections and shall remit such contributions to RRD in a timely manner. (10) Foreign RRD Employee Benefit Plans. With the consent of RRD, Newco (or, if applicable, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries) may become a participating employer in any foreign employee benefit plan or program maintained by RRD or any RRD subsidiary with respect to foreign employees on whatever terms to which the parties agree, subject to any action required to be taken by either Newco, any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries, RRD or any Newco GSS Subsidiary as a condition for such participation. No foreign employee benefit plan or program assets or liabilities shall be transferred to Newco as a result of the participation by Newco (or any of its direct of indirect subsidiaries) in such foreign employee benefit plan or program. (c) Employee Benefits Provided to Eligible SHI NEWCO Employees. (1) ERISA Benefits. From and after the Closing Date, Eligible SHI Newco Employees shall continue participation (or become eligible for participation) in the employee benefit plans, as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA and whether or not listed on Schedule 4.18(B), which were provided for employees of SHI and/or SHI's direct or indirect subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date. The continuation of such plans shall be subject to such modification or termination as Newco may determine from time to time. All such plans shall be amended to provide that there shall be no participation by Eligible RRD Newco employees -91- in such benefits unless and until specific action is taken to permit such participation. The term "Eligible SHI Newco Employee" shall mean any person employed by SHI or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries on the Closing Date and any person initially employed in a facility included in the SHI Property after the Closing Date. Nothing in this Section 7.2(c) shall obligate RRD or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries other than Newco to assist any Eligible SHI Newco Employee to enforce any rights such employee may have with respect to any of the employee benefits described in this Section 7.2. (2) Stock Related Benefits. At the Effective Time of the Merger, the SHI Option Plan shall be terminated, and each SHI Management Option which is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be treated as provided in Section 6.9. 7.3. TAX COVENANTS. From the date of this Agreement, unless the other parties shall otherwise agree in writing, none of Newco, RRD or SHI shall knowingly take or fail to take any action which action or failure to act would jeopardize the qualification of the Contribution as a contribution pursuant to which Newco Common Stock issued in the contribution will be received tax-free by RRD, RRD Norwest and each SHI stockholder under Section 351 of the Code. Newco shall not liquidate SHI or itself or cause SHI to merge with or into Newco or into another corporation within the two-year period commencing as of the Effective Time unless the SHI Representative agrees to such liquidation or merger in writing. 7.4. NON-SOLICITATION OF NEWCO EMPLOYEES. (a) For a period of two years following the Closing Date, neither RRD nor any of its Affiliates will, without the prior written approval of Newco, directly or indirectly solicit, induce or attempt to persuade any person who is an employee of Newco or any of its subsidiaries on the date hereof or at any time hereafter to terminate his or her employment with Newco or such subsidiary of Newco, except RRD or any of its Affiliates may hire employees who respond to general advertisements or who otherwise make the initial contact with them. Without limiting the rights of Newco to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available for a violation of this Section 7.4 by RRD or its Affiliates, it is agreed that other remedies cannot fully compensate Newco for such a violation and that Newco shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent a violation or continuing violation hereof. (b) It is the intent and understanding of each party hereto that if, in any action before any court or agency legally empowered to enforce this Section 7.4, any term, restriction, covenant or promise in this Section 7.4 is found to be unreasonable and for that reason unenforceable, then such term, restriction, covenant or promise shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable by such court or agency. -92- 7.5. COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE. In furtherance of the Contribution and more effectively to protect the value and goodwill of the GSS Business, RRD covenants and agrees that, for a period ending on the third anniversary of the Closing Date, neither RRD nor any of its Affiliates (other than Newco and its subsidiaries) will engage, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the world, in the Restricted Business (it being understood by the parties hereto that the GSS Business is not limited to any particular region of the world and that such business may be engaged in effectively from any location in the world); provided, however, that nothing set forth in this Section 7.5 shall prohibit RRD or its Affiliates from: (a) owning not in excess of 5% in the aggregate of any class of capital stock or other equity interest of any Person; (b) owning an interest acquired as a creditor in bankruptcy or otherwise than by a voluntary investment decision; (c) acquiring the assets or capital stock or other equity interests (in excess of interests allowed under clause (a) of this Section 7.5) of any Person engaged in the Restricted Business if less than 10% of the assets or sales of such Person as reflected in its most recently published financial statements related to the Restricted Business; (d) engaging in any activity or business described in item 4 listed in Schedule 7.5(A); (e) engaging in any activity or business described in item 3 listed in Schedule 7.5A (the "TestDrive Activities"), provided that net sales of RRD and its Affiliates (other than Newco and its subsidiaries) during any calendar year arising from such activities do not exceed $25,000,000; or (f) engaging in any aspect of the Restricted Business (including the activities and businesses described in items 1, 2 and 5 listed in Schedule 7.5(A) and the TestDrive Activities, but excluding the activity or business described in item 4), provided that net sales of RRD and its Affiliates (other than Newco and its subsidiaries) during any calendar year from all such activities and business and the activities permitted under Section 7.5(e) do not exceed $150,000,000 in the aggregate. Without limiting the right of Newco to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to it for violation of this Section 7.5 by RRD or its Affiliates, it is agreed that other -93- remedies cannot fully compensate Newco for such a violation and that Newco shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent violation or continuing violation thereof. It is the intent and understanding of each party hereto that if, in any action before any court or agency legally empowered to enforce this Section 7.5, any term, restriction, covenant or promise in this Section 7.5 is found to be unreasonable and for that reason unenforceable, then such term, restriction, covenant or promise shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable by such court or agency. With respect to the TestDrive Activities, if RRD desires to exceed the limitation set forth in Section 7.5(e), RRD may offer to sell to Newco all, but not less than all, of its interest in TestDrive Corporation for cash equal to the Fair Value (as such term is defined in the Newco Restated Certificate of Incorporation) of such interest. Within 10 days after the receipt of such offer, Newco shall notify RRD if it is interested in pursuing a purchase of such interest. If it is so interested, the parties shall engage a nationally recognized investment banking firm mutually agreed upon by RRD and Newco to determine the Fair Value of such interest (unless RRD and Newco otherwise agree on such Fair Value). The fees and expenses of any such firm so engaged shall be paid 50% by RRD and 50% by Newco. Newco shall have 60 days following receipt of such firm's determination of Fair Value (or the agreement of RRD and Newco as to Fair Value) to accept such offer within such period. Newco and RRD shall consummate the sale of such interest as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. If Newco does not accept such offer within such period, the provisions of Section 7.5(e) shall no longer be in effect and the TestDrive Activities shall no longer be included in the computation set forth in Section 7.5(f). RRD shall make available to Newco such information and access to information as Newco shall reasonably request to enable it to respond to such offer. 7.6. FURTHER ASSURANCES. From time to time following the Closing, RRD shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to Newco such other instruments of conveyance and transfer as Newco may reasonably request or as may be otherwise necessary to more effectively convey and transfer to, and vest in, Newco and put Newco in possession of, any part of the RRD GSS Assets and the RRD GSS Norwest Assets. In the case of licenses, certificates, approvals, authorizations, agreements, contracts, leases, easements and other commitments included in the RRD GSS Assets or the RRD Norwest GSS Assets (a) which cannot be transferred or assigned effectively without the consent of third parties which consent has not been obtained prior to the Closing, RRD shall cooperate with Newco at its request in endeavoring to obtain such consent promptly, and if any such consent is unobtainable, shall use its best efforts to secure to Newco the benefits thereof in some other manner, or (b) which are otherwise not transferable or -94- assignable, RRD shall use its best efforts jointly with Newco to secure to Newco the benefits thereof in some other manner (including the exercise of the rights of RRD thereunder). 7.7. INSURANCE. (a) Under the terms of the insurance policies of RRD listed in Schedule 5.24, at the Effective Time SHI and each of the SHI Subsidiaries will become named insureds under such policies. RRD will keep or cause such insurance or comparable insurance to be kept in full force and effect through December 31, 1995, subject to reimbursement from Newco for the added cost of having Newco and its subsidiaries as named insureds thereunder for the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending December 31, 1995. From and after the Closing, RRD and Newco shall cause SHI and its subsidiaries to maintain the policies of directors' and officers' liability insurance and perform the other obligations required to be maintained and performed by Section 6.7 of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of October 18, 1993 between Corporate Software Incorporated and SHI. 7.8. EXERCISE OF PUT RIGHT. RRD agrees that if, at the time Newco is required to pay the purchase price for any First Refusal Shares or Put Shares (as such terms are defined in the Newco Restated Certificate of Incorporation) or for any shares being purchased pursuant to the first offer rights set forth in Section B of Article FIFTH of the Newco Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Newco does not have on hand or readily available under existing credit facilities sufficient cash to permit it to pay such purchase price, RRD shall, at its option, either contribute or lend to Newco, on terms reasonably satisfactory to RRD and Newco, such amount of cash which, when added to cash on hand or readily available under existing credit facilities, shall permit Newco to pay such purchase price. 7.9. CERTAIN ACTIONS. (a) From the Effective Time until such time as the provisions of Article SIXTH of the Newco Restated Certificate of Incorporation terminate as provided therein, Newco agrees that it will not take, and shall not cause or permit any subsidiary of Newco to take, any of the following actions, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions: (i) voluntarily dissolve or liquidate; -95- (ii) declare or pay any cash or other dividend or make any other distribution of any kind (including any Distribution, as defined in Section C of Article FOURTH of the Newco Restated Certificate of Incorporation) on, or purchase or set aside any sums for the purchase or payment of, its capital stock; (iii) purchase, lease, exchange or otherwise acquire any equity securities or assets of any other Person, except for acquisitions in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; (iv) incur, create, assume, become or be liable in any manner with respect to, or permit to exist, any indebtedness (including capitalized leases) or for the deferred purchase price for the acquisition of property, other than (x) accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business or (y) indebtedness for borrowed money not to exceed in the aggregate at any one time 110% of the amount of indebtedness for money borrowed contemplated in any applicable operating plan that has been approved by the Board of Directors of Newco (including a majority of the Class A Directors and a majority of the Class B Directors, as such terms are defined in the Newco Restated Certificate of Incorporation); or (v) sell, lease, exchange, transfer or otherwise dispose of (by merger, consolidation or otherwise), any assets (including the capital stock of subsidiaries), having a Fair Value (as defined in the Newco Restated Certificate of Incorporation) in excess of 10% of the consolidated net assets of Newco and its subsidiaries, other than in the ordinary course of business, provided that this limitation shall not apply to transfers to Newco or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

If Acceptance Notices have been received by RRD during the Purchase Offer Acceptance Period from the holders of shares of Newco Class B Common representing at least 7.5% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Newco Common Stock (the holders of Newco Class B Common who so accept the Purchase Offer being referred to herein as the "Accepting Holders"), RRD shall purchase from each Accepting Holder all, but not less than all, of the shares of Newco Common Stock owned by each such Accepting Holder. (d) The per share price (the "Purchase Offer Price") for the shares of Newco Common Stock to be purchased from Accepting Holders (the "Purchase Offer Shares") shall be the same as the Put Price that would be payable under the Newco Restated Certificate of Incorporation if a Put Right were exercised during an Expansion Put Period (as defined in the Newco Restated Certificate of Incorporation) that commenced on the effective date of the Proposed Acquisition, except that all effects of the Proposed Acquisition (including the incurrence of any indebtedness to finance the Proposed Acquisition) shall be excluded from the determination of the Purchase Offer Price. (e) The closing of all purchases of Purchase Offer Shares shall take place at the principal executive office of Newco at 10 a.m. local time on the later of (a) the 45th day after the last day of the Purchase Offer Acceptance Period (or if such day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day) or (b) the fifth business day following the expiration or termination of all waiting periods under HSR applicable to such purchases, or at such other time and/or place as the parties to such purchases may agree. At such closing, (i) each Accepting Holder shall transfer to RRD good and marketable title to the Purchase Offer Shares being sold by such Accepting Holder, free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance, by delivery of the certificates representing the Purchase Offer Shares to be transferred, duly endorsed in blank, with any required stock transfer tax stamps attached, together with such stock powers, certificates, legal opinions and other instruments of transfer as RRD shall reasonably request; and (ii) RRD shall pay to each Accepting Holder the purchase price for the Purchase Offer Shares being sold by such Accepting Holder (calculated as provided in Section 7.9(d)) in cash, by delivery of a certified or bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds -97- to such account as each such Accepting Holder shall direct by written notice delivered to RRD not later than two business days before such closing. 7.10.

NOTICE OF CLAIMS. (a) Newco, when seeking indemnification under this Article XI, shall give to RRD a notice (a "Claim Notice") describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder and shall include in such Claim Notice (if then known) the amount or the method of computation of the amount of such claim; provided, that no Claim Notice shall be provided hereunder if the total amount of the underlying indemnification claim is less than $30,000; provided further, that a Claim Notice in respect of any action at law or suit in equity by or against a third Person as to which indemnification will be sought shall be given promptly after the action or suit is commenced; provided further, that with respect to any claim for indemnification under this Article XI with respect to Environmental Matters (an "Environmental Claim"), such Claim Notice shall be given promptly after Newco's discovery of the facts underlying such Claim Notice; and provided further, that no failure to give prompt notice shall relieve RRD from any obligation hereunder except where and then only to the extent that RRD has been materially prejudiced thereby. Upon RRD's written acknowledgement that, based upon the preliminary facts, RRD has an obligation to provide Newco with indemnification with respect to an Environmental Claim, RRD may elect to take control of such Environmental Claim, including determining any necessary Remedial Action in reasonable consultation with Newco, in the manner provided by Section 11.3(c) regarding third Person claims. (b) After the giving of any Claim Notice pursuant hereto, the amount of indemnification to which Newco shall be -108- entitled under this Article XI shall be determined: (i) by the written agreement between Newco and RRD; (ii) by a final judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) by any other means to which Newco and RRD shall agree. The judgment or decree of a court shall be deemed final when the time for appeal, if any, shall have expired and no appeal shall have been taken or when all appeals taken shall have been finally determined. Newco shall have the burden of proof in establishing the amount of Loss and Expense suffered by it. (c) The amount of any Losses and Expenses for which indemnification is provided under Article XI (unless such indemnity payment is treated as an adjustment to the amount contributed to Newco for tax purposes) shall be (i) increased to take account of any actual Tax cost incurred (grossed up for such increase) by Newco arising from the receipt of the indemnity payments hereunder and (ii) reduced to take account of any actual Tax benefit realized by Newco arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Losses and Expense. In computing the amount of any such Tax cost or Tax benefit, Newco shall be deemed to use all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before using any item arising from the incurrence or payment of any indemnified Losses and Expense or of any indemnity payment pursuant to this Article XI. Any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article XI will be treated as an adjustment to the amount contributed to Newco for Tax purposes, unless a determination (as defined in Section 1313 of the Code) with respect to Newco causes any such payment to not constitute an adjustment to the amount contributed to Newco for Federal income tax purposes. 11.3. THIRD PERSON CLAIMS. (a) Subject to Sections 11.3(b) and (c), Newco shall have the right to conduct and control, through counsel of its choosing, the defense, compromise or settlement of any third Person claim, action or suit against Newco as to which indemnification will be sought by Newco from RRD hereunder, and in any such case RRD shall cooperate in connection therewith and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by Newco in connection therewith; provided, that RRD may participate, through counsel chosen by it and at its own expense, in the defense of any such claim, action or suit as to which Newco has so elected to conduct and control the defense thereof; and provided, further, that Newco shall not, without the written consent of RRD (which written consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), pay, compromise or settle any such claim, action or suit, except that no such consent shall be required if, following a written request from Newco, RRD shall fail, within 14 days after the making of such request, to acknowledge and agree in writing that, if such claim, action or suit shall be adversely determined, RRD has an obligation to provide indemnification hereunder to Newco. Notwithstanding the -109- foregoing, Newco shall have the right to pay, settle or compromise any such claim, action or suit without RRD's consent, provided that in such event Newco shall waive any right to indemnity therefor hereunder. (b) If any third Person claim, action or suit against Newco is solely for money damages or will have no continuing effect in any material impact on the business of Newco and its subsidiaries, then RRD shall have the right to conduct and control, through counsel of its choosing, the defense, compromise or settlement of any such third Person claim, action or suit against Newco as to which indemnification will be sought by Newco from RRD hereunder if RRD has acknowledged and agreed in writing that, if the same is adversely determined, RRD has an obligation to provide indemnification to Newco in respect thereof, and in any such case Newco shall cooperate in connection therewith and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by RRD in connection therewith; provided, that Newco may participate, through counsel chosen by it and at its own expense, in the defense of any such claim, action or suit as to which RRD has so elected to conduct and control the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Newco shall have the right to pay, settle or compromise any such claim, action or suit without RRD's consent, provided that in such event Newco shall waive any right to indemnity therefor hereunder. (c) If any third Person claim, action or suit against Newco constitutes an Environmental Claim for which RRD has acknowledged and agreed in writing that, based upon the preliminary facts, that if the same is adversely determined, RRD has an obligation to provide Newco with indemnification in respect thereof, RRD shall have the right and responsibility of defending, remedying, compromising and settling, through counsel, consultant or contractor of its choosing (which shall be reasonably satisfactory to Newco), such Environmental Claim, and in any such case Newco shall cooperate in connection therewith and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by RRD in connection therewith. RRD shall have full control over any actions (including without limitation any remedial action, negotiation or litigation) in connection with any such Environmental Claim; provided that: (i) if a remedial or other action proposed to be taken by RRD in settlement of the Environmental Claim would materially and adversely affect the operations of Newco or its subsidiaries, such action shall not be taken without the prior written consent of Newco (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); (ii) RRD shall not compromise or settle any Environmental Claim without the consent of Newco (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and (iii) in the event Newco shall refuse to consent to the taking -110- of any remedial or other action in respect of, or the compromise or settlement of, any Environmental Claim, Newco may elect to take over the defense of such Environmental Claim, and in any such case the liability of RRD for indemnification in respect of such Environmental Claim shall not exceed the amount for which the Environmental Claim could have been settled plus the amount of Expense incurred by Newco prior to the time of the proposed settlement to which it is entitled to indemnification; provided further, that in the event that later discovered facts suggest that any Environmental Claim tendered to and accepted by RRD as provided above is not an RRD indemnified claim, RRD shall provide notice to Newco of such later discovered facts. Upon receipt of such notice, Newco shall assume the right and responsibility of defending, remedying, compromising or settling such Environmental Claim; provided that Newco, in assuming such right and responsibility, reserves its right of indemnification under Section 11.1 (subject to an equitable reimbursement to RRD for its Expenses in defending such Environmental Claim prior to the retender to Newco to the extent a final allocation of liability would warrant such reimbursement) to the extent some part of the Environmental Claim is finally determined to be an RRD indemnified matter. 11.4. NO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. The obligations of RRD in respect of a claim for indemnification under this Article XI shall be limited to the performance of the payment obligations provided hereunder and the taking of such reasonable actions as are necessary under the circumstances giving rise to such claim, and RRD (i) shall, with respect to Environmental Matters, in no event be required to take more extensive actions than would be required under Environmental Laws in effect, applicable and enforceable as of the Closing Date; and (ii) shall not be liable for special, exemplary or consequential damages, including without limitation loss of profit or revenue, interference with operations, or loss of tenants, lenders, investors or buyers or inability to use any of its assets. 11.5. EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. The parties agree, for themselves and any successors or assigns, that the indemnities set forth in this Article XI shall be the exclusive remedy of Newco and its subsidiaries for any liability of the nature described in Section 11.1. Each party hereby releases the others and agrees to waive any and all rights or causes of action under any Requirements of Law, including Environmental Law, and common law regarding Environmental Matters. -111- ARTICLE XII TAX MATTERS 12.1. LIABILITY FOR TAXES. (a) Without regard to any deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities reflected on the Valuation Date GSS Balance Sheet, RRD shall be liable for and shall indemnify Newco for: (i) all Taxes imposed on Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary, all Taxes imposed on RRD or RRD Norwest in respect of the GSS Business or attributable to the RRD GSS Assets and the RRD Norwest GSS Assets, and all Taxes for which Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary may otherwise be liable, in each case for any taxable year or period that ends on or before the Tax Cut-Off Date and, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Tax Cut-Off Date, provided, however, that RRD shall not be liable for and shall not indemnify Newco for (x) any Taxes shown as a liability or reserve on the Valuation Date GSS Balance Sheet, or (y) any Taxes imposed on Newco as owner of SHI or the SHI Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, Taxes imposed as a result of the Merger) (the Taxes described in this proviso being called the "Excluded Taxes"); (ii) any Taxes for which Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary is liable solely by reason of having been a member of the Newco Tax Group pursuant to Treasury Regulation 1.1502-6 or any similar state or local income tax law; and (iii) except as provided in Section 12.1(f), Taxes imposed as a result of the transfer of the RRD GSS Assets and RRD Norwest GSS Assets pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the obligations of RRD under this sentence shall be subject to the following: (A) RRD shall be required to indemnify and hold harmless under clause (i) of this sentence only to the extent that the aggregate amount of Losses and Expenses incurred by Newco and its subsidiaries thereunder exceeds $2,000,000, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 12.1(e); and (B) the aggregate amount of Losses and Expenses required to be paid by RRD pursuant to Section 11.1(a) and Article XII (other than Section 12.1(a)(ii) and Section 12.1(a)(iii)) shall not exceed $50,000,000. Except to the extent such refund is reflected as an asset on the Valuation Date GSS Balance Sheet, and except to the extent such -112- refund relates to Taxes paid directly by Newco or reimbursed by Newco pursuant to Section 12.1(b)(iii), RRD shall be entitled to any refund of Taxes imposed on Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary, Taxes imposed on RRD or RRD Norwest in respect of the GSS Business or Taxes attributable to the RRD GSS Assets and the RRD Norwest GSS Assets, or Taxes for which Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary may otherwise be liable, in each case for any taxable year or period that ends on or before the Tax Cut-Off Date and, with respect to any Straddle period, the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Tax Cut-Off Date, and RRD shall be entitled to any refund of Taxes described in Section 12.1(a)(ii). (b) Without regard to any deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities reflected on the Valuation Date GSS Balance Sheet, Newco shall be liable for and shall indemnify RRD for (i) Taxes imposed on Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary, Taxes imposed on RRD or RRD Norwest in respect of the GSS Business or attributable to the RRD GSS Assets and the RRD Norwest GSS Assets (excluding, however, except as provided in Section 12.1(f), Taxes imposed as a result of the tranfer of the RRD GSS Assets and RRD Norwest GSS Assets pursuant to this Agreement), and Taxes for which Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary may otherwise be liable, in each case for any taxable year or period that begins after the Tax Cut-Off Date and, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Tax Cut-Off Date, (ii) Excluded Taxes, and (iii) Taxes described in Section 12.1(a)(i) paid by RRD or RRD Norwest after the Closing Date (net of any related refunds or other tax benefits received or realized by RRD or RRD Norwest, determined using the assumptions in Section 12.1(e)) as a result of an action, suit, investigation, audit, claim, assessment or amended Tax Return required to be filed by any Taxing authority to the extent Newco would not have been entitled to indemnification payments from RRD under Section 12.1(a) solely by reason of clause (A) or (B) thereof if such Taxes were imposed directly on Newco; provided, however, that this clause (iii) shall not apply to any such Taxes that are imposed as a result of fraud on the part of RRD or RRD Norwest or as a result of the failure of RRD or RRD Norwest to file any Tax Return required to be filed, other than a failure attributable to a good faith belief that such Tax Return was not required to be filed. (c) For purposes of Sections 12.1(a) and (b), whenever it is necessary to determine the liability for Taxes of Newco or a Newco GSS Subsidiary or liability for Taxes imposed on RRD or RRD Norwest in respect of the GSS Business or attributable to the RRD GSS Assets or RRD Norwest GSS Assets, in each case for a Straddle Period, the determination of the Taxes for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including, and the portion of the Straddle Period beginning after, the Tax Cut-Off Date shall be determined by assuming that the Straddle -113- Period consisted of two taxable years or periods, one which ended at the close of business on the Tax Cut-Off Date and the other which began at the beginning of the day following the Tax Cut-Off Date, and items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit for the Straddle Period shall be allocated between such two taxable years or periods on a "closing of the books basis" by assuming that the books were closed at the close of the Tax Cut-Off Date, provided, however, that (i) exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, such as the deduction for depreciation, shall be apportioned between such two taxable years or periods on a daily basis, (iii) ad valorem Taxes (including, without limitation, real and personal property Taxes) shall be accrued on a monthly basis over the period for which such Taxes are levied, or if it cannot be determined over what period the Taxes are being levied, over the fiscal period of the relevant taxing authority, in each case irrespective of the lien or assessment date of such Taxes, and (v) franchise and other privilege Taxes not measured by income shall be accrued on a monthly basis over the period to which the privilege related. (d) For purposes of Section 12.1(a) and (b), whenever it is necessary to determine Taxes imposed on Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary, Taxes imposed on RRD or RRD Norwest in respect of the GSS Business or attributable to the RRD GSS Assets or the RRD Norwest GSS Assets, or Taxes for which Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary may otherwise be liable, in each case for any taxable year or period (i) that begins after the Tax Cut-Off Date or, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Tax Cut-Off Date and (ii) with respect to which Taxes are computed as part of, or on a combined, consolidated, or unitary basis with, RRD or any of its Affiliates, then the following rules shall apply: (1) the portion of such Taxes attributable to Newco, such Newco GSS Subsidiary, the GSS Business, the RRD GSS Assets or the RRD Norwest GSS Assets, as the case may be, shall be determined in a manner consistent with the method used in preparing the audited GSS Balance Sheet and related statements of income, equity and cash flows referred to in Section 5.4; (2) the portion of such Taxes to be reported for the period ending on and including the Closing Date, on one hand, and for the period beginning after the Closing Date, on the other hand, shall be determined under rules similar to those set forth in Section 12.1(c) (substituting the Closing Date for the Tax Cut-Off Date) except that, in addition, items of income, gain, deduction, loss or credit for the month in which the Closing Date occurs shall be allocated between such periods by allocating an equal amount of -114- such items to each calendar day in such a month, except that extraordinary items of a type described in Treas. Reg. (S) 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii)(C) shall be allocated to the day that they are taken into account; and (3) RRD and its Affiliates shall be assumed to be subject to an effective United States federal, state and local income tax rate of 40%. (e) If, as a result of any action, suit, investigation, audit, claim, assessment or amended Tax Return, there is any change after the Closing Date in an item of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or amount of Tax that results in an increase in a Tax liability for which RRD is liable pursuant to Section 12.1(a) (without regard to clause (A) or (B) thereof), and such change results in a decrease in the Tax liability of Newco, any Newco GSS Subsidiary, SHI, any SHI Subsidiary or any Affiliate or successor of any thereof for any taxable year or period beginning after the Tax Cut-Off Date or for the portion of any Straddle Period beginning after the Tax Cut-Off Date, the dollar amount set forth in clause (A) of Section 12.1(a) shall be increased by the amount of such decrease in Tax liability. If, as a result of any action, suit, investigation, audit, claim, assessment or amended Tax Return, there is any change after the Closing Date in an item of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit or amount of Tax that results in an increase in a Tax liability of Newco, any Newco GSS Subsidiary, SHI, any SHI Subsidiary or any Affiliate or successor of any thereof for any taxable year or period beginning after the Tax Cut-Off Date or for the portion of any Straddle Period beginning after the Tax Cut-Off Date and for which RRD would not otherwise be liable pursuant to Section 12.1(a) (without regard to clause (A) or (B) thereof), and such change results in a decrease in the Tax liability of RRD for any taxable year or period ending on or before the Tax Cut-Off Date or for the portion of any Straddle Period ending on and including the Tax Cut-Off Date, the dollar amount set forth in Clause (A) of Section 12.1(a) shall be decreased by the amount of such increase in Tax liability. The amount of such decrease or increase in Tax liability shall be determined by (i) taking into account the time value of money using a discount rate equal to the underpayment rate established under Section 6621(a)(2) of the Code as of the time of determination, (ii) assuming the party realizing such decrease or increase is subject to an effective United States federal, state and local income tax rate of 40%, and (iii) assuming the party to which such decrease or increase applies will enjoy the full benefit of any such potential decrease or suffer the full detriment of any such potential increase, as the case may be. Any increase or decrease in the dollar amount set forth in clause (A) of Section 12.1(a) shall be made prior to any determination of the extent to which Newco is or would be entitled to indemnification from RRD under Section 12.1(a). -115- (f) Newco shall pay, and shall indemnify RRD against, any real property transfer or gains Tax, sales Tax, use Tax, stamp Tax, stock transfer Tax, or other similar Tax imposed on the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including such Taxes as are attributable to the contribution to Newco of the GSS Subsidiaries) and any related transactions provided, however, that the aggregate amount paid by Newco pursuant to this Section 12.1(f) shall not exceed $120,000, and RRD shall pay, and shall indemnify Newco against, any such Taxes to the extent the aggregate amount of such Taxes exceeds $120,000. (g) The indemnification provided for in Section 12.1(a) and (b) shall terminate (and no claims shall be made by Newco or RRD under this Section 12.1 thereafter) upon the earliest to occur of (i) the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) the Initial Public Offering or (iii) the closing of a purchase pursuant to the exercise of the Put Right or the Call Right, except that the indemnification by RRD and Newco shall continue as to any Tax of which Newco or RRD has notified the other party in accordance with the requirements of Section 12.3 on or prior to the date such indemnification would otherwise terminate in accordance with this Section 12.1, as to which the obligation of RRD and Newco shall continue until the liability of RRD or RRD shall have been determined pursuant to this Article XII, and RRD or Newco shall have reimbursed the other party for the full amount of such Tax in accordance with this Article XII. (h) The amount of any Losses and Expenses for which indemnification is provided under Article XII (unless such indemnity payment is treated as an adjustment to the amount contributed to Newco for tax purposes) shall be (i) increased to take account of any actual Tax cost incurred (grossed up for such increase) by the indemnified party arising from the receipt of the indemnity payments hereunder and (ii) reduced to take account of any actual Tax benefit realized by the indemnified party arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Losses and Expense. In computing the amount of any such Tax cost or Tax benefit, the indemnified party shall be deemed to use all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before using any item arising from the incurrence or payment of any indemnified Losses and Expense or of any indemnity payment pursuant to this Article XII. Any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article XII will be treated as an adjustment to the amount contributed to Newco for Tax purposes, unless a determination (as defined in Section 1313 of the Code) with respect to the indemnified party causes any such payment to not constitute an adjustment to the amount contributed to Newco for Federal income tax purposes. 12.2. TAX RETURNS. (a) RRD shall timely file or cause to be timely filed when due (taking into account all extensions properly obtained) (i) all Tax Returns that are -116- required to be filed by or with respect to Newco and each Newco GSS Subsidiary on or prior to the Closing Date and (ii) all Tax Returns attributable to Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary organized in the United States being a member of the Newco Tax Group and RRD shall remit or cause to be remitted any Taxes due in respect of such Tax Returns. Except with respect to Tax Returns attributable to Newco or any Newco GSS Subsidiary organized in the United States being a member of the Newco Tax Group, Newco shall timely file or cause to be timely filed when due (taking into account all extensions properly obtained) all Tax Returns that are required to be filed by or with respect to Newco and each Newco GSS Subsidiary after the Closing Date and Newco shall remit or cause to be remitted any Taxes due in respect of such Tax Returns. RRD shall, in all cases, file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns required to be filed by or with respect to RRD or RRD Norwest. Newco and RRD shall pay the other party for the Taxes for which Newco or RRD, respectively, is liable pursuant to Section 12.1 but which are payable with any Tax Return to be filed by the other party pursuant to this Section 12.2 upon the written request of the party entitled to payment, setting forth in detail the computation of the amount owed by Newco or RRD, as the case may be, but in no event earlier than 10 days prior to the due date for the filing of such Tax Return. (b) None of Newco or any Affiliate of Newco shall (or shall cause or permit any Newco GSS Subsidiary to) amend, refile or otherwise modify any Tax Return relating in whole or in part to Newco any Newco GSS Subsidiary the RRD GSS Assets or the RRD Norwest GSS Assets with respect to any taxable year or period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date without the prior written consent of RRD, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of RRD. 12.3. CONTEST PROVISIONS. Newco shall promptly notify RRD in writing upon receipt by Newco, any of its Affiliates or any Newco GSS Subsidiary of notice of any pending or threatened federal, state, local or foreign Tax audits, examinations or assessments which might affect the Tax liabilities for which RRD may be liable pursuant to Section 12.1. RRD shall have the sole right to represent the interests of Newco and each Newco GSS Subsidiary (or any successor thereof) in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding relating to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date, and to employ counsel of its choice at its expense. In the case of a taxable year or period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date, RRD shall be entitled to participate at its expense in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding relating (in whole or in part) to Taxes attributable to the portion of such taxable year or period ending on and including the Closing Date and, with the written consent of -117- Newco, and at RRD's sole expense, may assume the entire control of such audit or proceeding. None of Newco, SHI, any Affiliate thereof, any Newco GSS Subsidiary or any SHI Subsidiary may settle any Tax claim for any taxable year or period ending on or before the Closing Date (or for the portion of any taxable year or period ending on and including the Closing Date) which may be the subject of indemnification by RRD under Section 12.1 without the prior written consent of RRD, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of RRD. RRD shall have the sole right to respect the interests of RRD or RRD Norwest in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding relating to any taxable period. 12.4. ASSISTANCE AND COOPERATION. After the Closing Date each of Newco and RRD shall (and cause their respective Affiliates to): (a) assist the other party in preparing any Tax Returns which such other party is responsible for preparing and filing in accordance with Section 12.2; (b) cooperate fully in preparing for any audits of, or disputes with taxing authorities regarding, any Tax Returns of Newco and any Newco GSS Subsidiary; (c) make available to the other and to any taxing authority as reasonably requested all information, records, and documents relating to Taxes of Newco and each Newco GSS Subsidiary; (d) provide timely notice to the other in writing of any pending or threatened Tax audits or assessments of Newco or and each Newco GSS Subsidiary for taxable periods for which the other may have a liability under this Article XII; (e) furnish the other with copies of all correspondence received from any taxing authority in connection with any Tax audit or information request with respect to any such taxable period; and (f) timely sign and deliver such certificates or forms as may be necessary or appropriate to establish an exemption from (or otherwise reduce), or file Tax Returns or other reports with respect to, Taxes described in Section 12.1(f). -118- ARTICLE XIV GENERAL PROVISIONS 13.1.
