• 1/18/13: “New proposal continues to grossly undervalue the equity of American Greetings” companies in partnership

– Family is “using coercive tactics to the detriment of all other owners” with company management) – Special Committee should instead pursue leveraged recapitalization of the Company

??Recapitalization would “effectively pay all shareholders $10 per share in cash and distribute a further $5 per share in market value of a new issue of preferred stock”

– Special Committee should also “level the playing field for all shareholders by declaring a stock dividend of 0.4 shares of Class B Common stock for all shareholders”? reduce voting power of Weiss Family from approximately 50% to nearly 20%

APPENDIX D. OVERVIEW OF INITIAL WEISS FAMILY PROPOSAL – 12/5/12


LOGO

 

PRELIMINARY FINANCING OVERVIEW

• The Weiss Family submitted an updated proposal dated Dec. 5, 2012, reaffirming its initial proposed purchase price of $17.18 per share

• The Family states it has made meaningful progress in obtaining debt financing in support of its updated offer

• Bank of America, KeyBanc, Macquarie and PNC Bank are prepared to collectively commit up to $542 million in Senior Secured Credit Facilities and a $200 million Senior Unsecured Bridge Facility(a); KeyBanc, Merrill Lynch, Macquarie and PNC will serve as joint lead arrangers and joint book running managers on the Facilities

• KeyBanc, as sole lead arranger, sole bookrunner and sole syndication agent, has provided a “highly confident” letter on the syndication of a Junior Holdco Facility of at least $150 million

– Highly speculative security

– According to KeyBanc, this Facility could range from being a mezzanine-like term loan to preferred equity

• Additionally, $80 million of proceeds are targeted from a Real Estate Facility (for which no supporting information was provided), $59.7 million from the rollover of Weiss Family equity and $10.6 million from cash on the balance sheet

– No contribution reflected from Weiss Family beyond rollover equity, according to Family advisors

• Fee letter not provided (impacts sources and uses)

FACILITY SOURCES

Facility Considerations

• Commercially reasonable senior leverage at 2.0x

• Term loan contemplated as Term Loan B is sold to institutional investors rather than traditional banks

• Key terms at current market rates:

– L + 450 bps with 1.25% floor $542 Million Senior – Commitment fee: 0.50% per annum Credit Facilities – TL: 6-year term; RC: 5-year term

– 1% amortization per annum on TL

– 50% Excess Cash Flow Sweep

• $392 million Term Loan

– 101 “soft call”

Facility

• $150 million Revolving – Financial Covenants: Maximum Leverage Ratio and Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, both to be defined Credit Facility – Leverage less than 3.25x Consolidated Total Debt / Consolidated EBITDA prior to close

– No flex language provided

– No OID or commitment fee provided for Senior Credit Facilities

• Commitment letter expires on December 12, 2012 at 5:00pm if not executed and accepted loan commitments expire on April 5, 2013, although both dates likely are placeholders that the lenders will have flexibility on

• Bridge loan backstopping Senior Unsecured Notes offering

• Notes will be marketed in high yield market to avoid bridge loan “take down”

• Pricing and related “step-ups” on market

$200 Million Senior

– L + 925 bps if B2/B corporate ratings achieved; L + 1,000 bps if not; 1.25% LIBOR floor

Unsecured Bridge

– 50 bps pricing increase each quarter

Facility – Total pricing cap of 13% (B2/B) or 13.75% (below B2/B)

– 1-year maturity

• Customary Exchange Notes provisions (priced at total pricing cap described above)

• Replaces traditional common or preferred equity as originally contemplated

• Significantly increases total pro forma leverage to 4.2x from 3.4x

• Defies current market convention of minimum equity threshold of greater than or equal to 30% for go-private transactions

$150 Million Junior

– Pro forma 24% if Holdco Facility included as equity; 7% if Holdco Facility excluded

Holdco Facility

• May impact pricing of Senior Credit Facilities and Senior Unsecured Notes during syndication

• May impact ability to increase offer

• Speculative security with significant execution risk
