Registration Rights

     SECTION 3.01. Demand Registration. (a) The Buyer agrees that, upon the request of the Parent, it will file a registration statement (a “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act as to the number of shares of Registrable Securities specified in such request (a “Demand Registration”); provided that (i) the Company shall not be required to file a Registration Statement prior to such time as all financial statements required under the Securities Act to be included therein are available and all required accountants’ consents have been obtained; (ii) the Company shall not be required to file a Registration Statement with respect to more than 80% of the Shares prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date; (iii) the Buyer shall not be required to file more than three Registration Statements; (iv) the Parent shall not make more than one request for a Demand Registration in any twelve month period, (v) the Company shall not be required to file a Registration Statement with respect to less than the lesser of (A) 20% of the Shares and (B) Shares having a value based on the average closing price of Buyer Common Stock for the thirty (30) day period prior to the date of such request for a Demand Registration of not less than $20,000,000, (vi) any sales of Registrable Securities, other than pursuant to an Underwritten Registration, shall be subject to the limitation set forth in Section 4.01(b), (vii) the Buyer shall not be required to effect a Demand Registration if within 10 days after receipt of a request therefor, the Buyer provides written notice of its bona fide intention to file within 60 days a registration statement for an underwritten public offering of securities for its own account, and (viii) the Buyer shall not be required to effect a Demand Registration during the period from the date of filing of, and ending 90 days after the effective date of, any registration statement for an underwritten public offering of securities for the account of the Buyer. Buyer’s right to block or defer a Demand Registration pursuant to this Article 3 may be exercised only once in any 12-

4

month period. During any period that a Demand Registration is blocked or deferred pursuant to this Section 3.01, Buyer shall not file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act covering the resale of securities of the Buyer for the account of any other stockholder of Buyer.

     (b) In the case of an Underwritten Registration, the Parent shall select the lead underwriter, any additional underwriters, and any additional investment bankers and managers to be used in connection with the offering, subject to the Buyer’s reasonable approval.

     (c) Without the consent of the Parent, no securities other than Registrable Securities shall be included in a Demand Registration.

     SECTION 3.02. Piggyback Registration. If the Buyer proposes to register a Public Offering for its own account at any time, the Buyer shall each such time give notice to the Parent at least 15 Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the registration statement relating to such registration, which notice shall set forth the Parent’s rights under this Section 3.02 and shall offer the Parent and its Subsidiaries the opportunity to register such number of shares of Registrable Securities as the Parent may request on the same terms and conditions as the Buyer (a “Piggyback Registration”); provided, that the Parent shall not request the registration of a greater number of shares of Buyer Common Stock than that for which it could then demand a registration under Section 3.01(a)(ii). No registration effected under this Section 3.02 shall relieve the Buyer of its obligations to effect a Demand Registration to the extent required by Section 3.01, provided, however, that any Shares sold pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be applied against the limitation set forth in Section 3.01(a)(ii). Buyer may withdraw any Piggyback Registration at any time without liability to Parent.

     SECTION 3.03. Reduction of Offering. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if the managing underwriter of a Public Offering made pursuant to Section 3.02 advises the Buyer in writing that, in such underwriter’s opinion, the inclusion of Registrable Securities would adversely affect the offering, then the amount of Registrable Securities to be offered for the account of the Sellers shall be reduced to the extent necessary to reduce the total amount of securities to be included in such offering to the amount recommended by such managing underwriter; provided that if securities are being offered for the account of Persons other than the Buyer, then the proportion by which the amount of such Registrable Securities intended to be offered for the account of the Sellers is reduced shall not exceed the proportion by which the amount of such securities intended to be offered for the account of such other Persons is reduced.

     SECTION 3.04. Filings; Information. Whenever the Parent requests that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof, the Parent shall indicate whether the request is for a Shelf Registration or an Underwritten Registration. Buyer will thereupon use Reasonable Best Efforts to effect the requested registration of such Registrable Securities as soon as is practicable, and in connection with any such request:

     (a) The Buyer will use its Reasonable Best Efforts to prepare and file with the SEC as soon as practicable a Registration Statement on any form for which the Buyer then qualifies and which counsel for the Buyer shall deem appropriate and available for the sale of the Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof, and use Reasonable Best Efforts to cause such filed Registration Statement to become

5

and remain effective for up to 90 days in the case of an Underwritten Registration and 12 months in the case of a Shelf Registration; provided, that, at least five (5) Business Days prior to filing any registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Buyer will furnish to the Parent and its counsel copies of all such documents proposed to be filed and any such holder shall have the opportunity to comment on any information pertaining to the Parent and its plan of distribution that is contained therein and the Buyer shall make the corrections reasonably requested by the Parent with respect to such information prior to filing any such registration statement or amendment; and provided further that, the Buyer’s obligations to use Reasonable Best Efforts to file or maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be suspended for up to 90 days if the Buyer shall furnish to the Parent a certificate signed by the Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer stating that in his reasonable good faith judgment the fulfillment of the foregoing obligations would (i) require the Buyer to make a disclosure that would be detrimental to the Buyer, or (ii) occur at a time when the price or exchange ratio at which the Buyer is obligated to issue securities (other than Buyer employee or officer and director stock options or restricted stock grants) is being determined, except that the foregoing obligations of the Buyer shall be reinstated upon the making of such disclosure by the Buyer or expiration or termination of the circumstances referred to in clause (ii) above (or, if earlier, when such disclosure would no longer be necessary for the fulfillment of the foregoing obligations or no longer be detrimental). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may suspend a Demand Registration under this Section 3.04 for not more than a cumulative period of 105 days in any 12-month period. If, during the period a Demand Registration is permitted to be suspended under this Section 3.04(a), Buyer does not also suspend the filing or effectiveness, as applicable, of any other Registration Statement covering the resale of securities of the Buyer for the account of any other stockholder of the Buyer, then Buyer shall not suspend the Demand Registration unless, and to the extent that, any such other Registration Statement is suspended.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at the request of the Buyer, the Sellers shall not, directly or indirectly, make sales of any Registrable Securities during the period commencing upon the filing of any Registration Statement by the Buyer to register a Public Offering for its own account and ending 30 days following the closing of such Public Offering (such period not to exceed 150 days), provided, that the Parent is given the opportunity (whether or not accepted by the Parent) to include at least 2,500,000 Shares (as adjusted for any Adjustment Event) in such Public Offering.

     (c) The Buyer will, if requested, prior to filing such Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish to the Parent and each applicable managing underwriter, if any, copies thereof, and thereafter furnish to the Parent and each such underwriter, if any, such number of copies of such Registration Statement, amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein) and the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) as the Parent or each such underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities.

     (d) After the filing of the Registration Statement, the Buyer will promptly notify the Parent of any stop order issued or, to the Buyer’s knowledge, threatened to be issued by the SEC and shall use Reasonable Best Efforts to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered.

6

     (e) The Buyer will use Reasonable Best Efforts to qualify the Registrable Securities for offer and sale under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdiction in the United States as the Parent reasonably requests; provided that the Buyer will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3.04(e), (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction.

     (f) The Buyer will as promptly as is practicable notify the Parent, at any time when a prospectus relating to the sale of the Registrable Securities is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales by an underwriter or dealer, of the occurrence of any event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and promptly make available to the Parent and to the underwriters any such supplement amendment. The Parent agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Buyer of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in the preceding sentence, the Parent will forthwith discontinue the offer and sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until receipt by the Parent and the underwriters of the copies of such supplemented or amended prospectus and, if so directed by the Buyer, the Parent will deliver to the Buyer all copies, other than permanent file copies then in the Parent’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Buyer shall give such notice, the Buyer shall extend the period during which such Registration Statement shall be maintained effective as provided in Section 3.04(a) hereof by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to the date when the Buyer shall make available to the Parent such supplemented or amended prospectus.

     (g) In the case of an Underwritten Registration, the Buyer will enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably requested by Parent in order to expedite or facilitate the sale of such Registrable Securities, including but not limited to attendance by the Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer and any other Buyer officers as may be reasonably requested by the Parent, at any investor presentation or any “road shows” undertaken in connection with the marketing or selling of the Registrable Securities provided that the Buyer’s Chief Executive Officer and such Buyer officers (if any) shall not be required to participate in any such presentations or “road show” for more than five Business Days in connection with each Underwritten Registration.

     (h) In the case of an Underwritten Registration, the Buyer will use its Reasonable Best Efforts to furnish to each underwriter (i) an opinion or opinions of counsel to the Buyer and (ii) a comfort letter or comfort letters from the Buyer’s independent public accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as the managing underwriter reasonably requests.

     (i) As a condition to Buyer’s obligation to register Registrable Securities under this Agreement, Parent shall, promptly upon request, furnish in writing to the Buyer such information regarding the Sellers, the plan of distribution of the Registrable Securities and such other

7

information as the Buyer may from time to time reasonably request in writing or as may be legally required in connection with such registration. In addition, each Seller shall complete and execute all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of any underwriting arrangements and the provisions of this Agreement.

     (j) In connection with the preparation and filing of each registration statement registering Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Buyer shall give, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, the Parent, its underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel and accountants access to its books and records and an opportunity to discuss the business of the Buyer with its officers and the independent public accountants who have certified its financial statements as shall be necessary, in the opinion of Parent’s or such underwriters’ counsel to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11(b)(3) of the Securities Act.

     SECTION 3.05. Registration Expenses. In connection with any Demand Registration and in connection with any Piggyback Registration, the Buyer shall pay the following expenses incurred in connection with such registration: (i) registration and filing fees with the SEC, (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities), (iii) expenses in connection with the preparation, printing, mailing and delivery of any registration statements, prospectuses and other documents in connection therewith and any amendments or supplements thereto, (iv) fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities, (v) fees and expenses of counsel and independent certified public accountants for the Buyer, (vi) the reasonable fees and expenses of any additional experts retained by the Buyer in connection with such registration, (vii) internal expenses of the Buyer, (viii) for any Piggyback Registration, fees and expenses in connection with any review by the NASD of the underwriting arrangements or other terms of the offering, (ix) costs of printing and producing any agreements among underwriters, underwriting agreements, any “blue sky” or legal investment memoranda and any selling agreements and other documents in connection with the offering, sale or delivery of the Registrable Securities, and (x) transfer agents’ and registrars’ fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of any other agent or trustee appointed in connection with such offering, provided, however, that the Buyer shall not be required to pay, and the Parent shall reimburse the Buyer for, any such expenses for any Demand Registration that is withdrawn at the request of the Parent unless such withdrawn Registration Statement is counted toward the maximum number of Demand Registrations to which the Parent is entitled under Section 3.01. The Parent shall also pay (i) any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities and any out-of-pocket expenses of the Parent, and (ii) any out-of-pocket “road show” expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with any Demand Registration.

     SECTION 3.06. Indemnification by the Buyer. The Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Parent, its officers, directors, employees and agents, and each Person, if any, who controls the Parent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable expenses of investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (“Damages”) caused by or relating to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a

8

material fact contained in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities (as amended or supplemented if the Buyer shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus (including documents incorporated by reference therein), or caused by or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such Damages are caused by or related to any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission so made based upon information furnished in writing to the Buyer by the Parent or on the Parent’s behalf expressly for use therein, provided that, with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus, or in any prospectus, as the case may be, the indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph shall not apply to the extent that any Damages result from the fact that a current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) was not sent or given to the Person asserting any such Damages at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities concerned to such Person if it is determined that the Buyer has provided such prospectus to the Parent and it was the responsibility of the Parent to provide such Person with a current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) and such current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) would have cured the defect giving rise to such Damages. The Buyer also agrees to indemnify any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Parent provided in this Section 3.06.

     SECTION 3.07. Indemnification by the Parent. The Parent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer, its officers, directors and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Buyer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Buyer to the Parent, but only (i) with respect to information furnished in writing by the Parent or on the Parent’s behalf expressly for use in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus or (ii) to the extent that any Damages result from the fact that a current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) was not sent or given to the Person asserting any such Damages at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities concerned to such Person if it is determined that it was the responsibility of the Parent to provide such Person with a current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) and such current copy of the prospectus (or such amended or supplemented prospectus, as the case may be) would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense. The Parent also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Buyer provided in this Section 3.07. As a condition to including Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with Article 3, the Buyer may require that it shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from any underwriter to indemnify and hold it harmless to the extent customarily provided by underwriters with respect to similar securities. The Parent shall not be liable under this Section 3.07 for any Damages in excess of

9

the net proceeds realized by the Parent in the sale of Registrable Securities of the Parent to which such Damages relate.

     SECTION 3.08. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Article 3, such Person (an “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses, provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for all such Indemnified Parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Indemnified Parties, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Parties from and against any Damages (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, no Indemnifying Party shall effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such proceeding.

     SECTION 3.09. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article 3 is unavailable to the Indemnified Parties in respect of any Damages, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Damages in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Buyer, the Parent and the underwriters in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Damages, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Buyer, the Parent and the underwriters shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

     The Buyer and the Parent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.09 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the underwriters

10

were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 3, no underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any Damages which such underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, and the Parent shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds of the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Parent exceeds the amount of any Damages which the Parent has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

     SECTION 3.10. Termination. Parent’s rights to require the registration of Registrable Securities under this Article 3 shall terminate upon the later of five (5) years after the Closing Date and such time as Parent holds less than ten percent (10%) of the Registrable Securities (as adjusted for any Adjustment Event).

ARTICLE 4

Certain Covenants And Agreements

     SECTION 4.01. Rule 144. (a) The Buyer covenants that it will file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and that it will take such further action as the Parent may reasonably request to the extent required from time to time to enable the Parent or its Subsidiaries to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of the Parent, the Buyer will deliver to the Parent a written statement as to whether it has complied with such reporting requirements.

     (b) Until the third anniversary of the Closing Date, any sale of Registrable Securities by Sellers, other than pursuant to an Underwritten Registration or Piggyback Registration, shall be in compliance with the volume limitations set forth in section (e) of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, regardless of whether such section then applies to Sellers, provided, that for purposes of Rule 144(e) “one percent” shall be deemed to be “two percent.”

ARTICLE 5

Right Of First Offer

     SECTION 5.01. Restrictions on Transfer. Any voluntary sale, transfer or other disposition (“Transfer”) of any of the Shares by a Seller or its Subsidiaries, other than according to the terms of this Agreement, shall be void and transfer no right, title, or interest in or to any of such Shares to the purported transferee (it being understood that a Transfer by operation of law

11

shall not be restricted by this Article 5). Each certificate representing the Shares acquired by the Sellers at the Closing shall be stamped with the following legend in a prominent manner:

“The sale or other disposition of any of the shares represented by this certificate is restricted by a Shareholder Agreement, dated as of ___, 2005, as amended from time to time, among Bowne & Co., Inc. and this corporation (the “Agreement”). A copy of the Agreement is available for inspection during normal business hours at the principal executive office of this corporation.”

     SECTION 5.02. Offer of Sale; Notice of Proposed Sale. If any Seller desires to Transfer any of the Shares, or any interest in such Shares, in any transaction other than a sale in a Public Offering, such Seller shall first deliver written notice of its desire to do so (a “Sale Notice”) to the Buyer, in the manner prescribed in Section 7.02 of this Agreement. The Sale Notice must specify: (a) the name and address of the party to which the Seller proposes to sell or otherwise dispose of the Shares or an interest in the Shares, if known to the Seller (the “Offeror”), (b) the number of Shares the Seller proposes to sell or otherwise dispose of (the “Offered Shares”), (c) the price per share at which Seller proposes to sell the Offered Shares (the “Offered Price”).

     SECTION 5.03. Buyer’s Option to Purchase. The Buyer shall have the option to purchase all of the Offered Shares at the Offered Price. The Buyer must exercise such option, no later than three (3) Business Days after such Sale Notice is deemed under Section 7.02 hereof to have been delivered to it (the “Option Period”), by written notice to the Seller. In the event the Buyer duly exercises its option to purchase all of the Offered Shares, the closing of such purchase shall take place at the offices of the Buyer on the date five (5) Business Days after the exercise of such option.
