(c)                                  The amount payable to MeadWestvaco for its FRP Membership Interest pursuant to the FRP Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “MeadWestvaco Payment”); minus

(f)                                    The amount of any cash or cash equivalents held by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries at the Effective Time (including the cash surrender value of any life insurance policies and any mutual fund Investment Assets).

The Merger Consideration is subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.05(b) and is payable in cash at the Closing in the manner provided in Section 3.05(a). The Merger Consideration may be paid by either Parent or Merger Sub.

Section 3.02                                Effect on Company Shares and Awards.

(a)                                  Each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Company Shares held in the Company’s treasury) shall be converted into and represent the right to receive an amount equal to the per share Merger Consideration (calculated in the manner set forth below). As a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company’s shareholders, at the Effective Time, all Company Shares converted pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall cease to be outstanding, shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such Company Shares shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Shares, except the right to receive the per share Merger Consideration. For purposes of this Agreement the per share Merger Consideration will be determined as follows: the Merger Consideration divided by the number of Company Shares.

(b)                                 Each share held in the Company’s treasury immediately prior to the Effective Time and each unexercised stock purchase right set forth on Section 3.02(b) of the Disclosure Schedule will be cancelled and retired without payment of any consideration therefore.

(c)                                  Each share of common stock of the Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(d)                                 At the Effective Time, each stock appreciation right or stock equivalent unit of the Company granted to any employee or director of the Company or any Company Subsidiary pursuant to any of the Company’s Plans (each, an “Award”), whether or not exercisable at the Effective Time and regardless of the exercise price thereof, will be cancelled, effective as of the Effective Time, in exchange for a single lump sum cash payment, which shall be paid by the Parent and Merger Sub as promptly as practicable, following the Effective Time in accordance with Section 3.03(a)(i) below, of the applicable amount shown on Section 4.16(a) of the Disclosure Schedule. Any payment in respect of an Award shall be subject to the holder’s execution of an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, pursuant to which such holder shall have released the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries, Parent and its Affiliates (including Merger Sub) from any and all liability in respect of all rights to receive

17

equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and all rights that are derivative of the value of equity securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including but not limited to such holder’s Awards.

(e)                                  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Company Shares that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by any Person who is entitled to demand, and who properly demands, appraisal of such shares of common stock pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (such Section, “Section 262”; such shares, “Appraisal Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the per share Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.02(a) above, but rather the holders of Appraisal Shares shall be entitled only to payment of the fair value of such Appraisal Shares in accordance with Section 262; provided that, if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under Section 262, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Appraisal Shares shall cease and such Appraisal Shares shall be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into, and to have become exchangeable solely for, the right to receive the per share Merger Consideration. The Company shall notify Parent as promptly as practicable of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of any Company Shares, and Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing, except to the extent it is expressly required to do so by a court order.

As of the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to deposit, with the Paying Agent, separate and apart from its other funds, as a trust fund for the holders of record of Company Shares (other than any holder of Appraisal Shares) and those to receive payments in connection with Awards in accordance with the terms set forth above (each holder of Company Shares and each holder of an Award is referred to herein as a “Holder”), cash in the amount equal to the aggregate Merger Consideration and the Aggregate Award Payment Amount which such Holders are entitled to receive pursuant to this Article III (such cash being hereinafter referred to as the “Merger Fund”). In the case of the Holders of Company Shares, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide the Paying Agent with irrevocable instructions and authority to pay to each respective Holder of Company Shares as evidenced by a

18

list of such Holders certified by an officer of the Company, the per share Merger Consideration for each Company Share (other than Appraisal Shares) upon receipt by the Paying Agent of a duly executed letter of transfer (as described below). In the case of the Holders of Awards, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide the Paying Agent with irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Holder of each such Award as evidenced by a list of Holders certified by an officer of the Company, the amount to which each such Holder is entitled under Section 3.02(d) above, as soon as practicable following the Effective Time. The list provided for in the previous sentence will contain information regarding where payment for each Award is to be directed. Payment for each Award will be made in the form of a check mailed to the address indicated in the list to be provided by the Company and referred to above.

(ii)                                  On the Closing Date the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent Certificates representing all of the outstanding Company Shares (each such certificate is referred to herein as a “Certificate”). As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail or otherwise deliver (and to make available for collection by hand) to each Holder of Company Shares (A) a letter of transfer, which shall specify that title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the letter of transfer to the Paying Agent and which shall be in such form and have such other customary provisions as Parent and the Surviving Corporation may reasonably specify, and (B) instructions for use in completing any additional documentation necessary to receive the Merger Consideration to be received by such Holder pursuant to Section 3.02(a). At any time prior to the Effective Date the Company may, at its option, deliver letters of transfer in the form approved by the Paying Agent and Parent to each Holder, and to the extent the Paying Agent receives duly executed letters of transfer from a Holder, the Paying Agent shall not send another letter of transfer to such Holder.

(iii)                               Each Holder of Company Shares that have been converted into a right to receive the Merger Consideration set forth in Section 3.02(a) shall, upon delivery of a properly completed letter of transfer to the Paying Agent, duly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, be entitled to receive in exchange for their Company Shares the per share Merger Consideration, including any amounts payable to Holders pursuant to Section 3.05(b)(ii), for each Company Share transferred by such letter, in the form of a check, to be mailed (or made available for collection by hand if so elected by the transferring Holder, provided that payment by hand is permissible by the Paying Agent) within three Business Days of receipt thereof (but in no case prior to the Effective Time), and the Certificate so transferred shall forthwith be marked cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due transfer of the Certificates. The Paying Agent shall accept transfer of such Certificates upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Paying Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices.

(iv)                              In the event of the transfer of a Certificate that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company under the name of the Person transferring such Certificate, the per share Merger Consideration shall be paid to such transferee if such Certificate is presented to the Paying Agent and was duly endorsed or the applicable letter of transfer is accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid. If any per share Merger Consideration is to be delivered to a Person whose name is other than that in which the Certificate transferred in

19

exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of such delivery that the Person requesting such delivery shall pay any transfer or other Taxes required to be paid by reason of such delivery to a Person whose name is other than that of the Holder of the Certificate transferred or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Tax has been paid or is not applicable.

(v)                                 If payment is made to a Holder prior to the calculation of the Final Net Working Capital, and such calculation results in an amount in excess of the upper end of the Target Net Working Capital Range, then the Paying Agent shall remit to such Holder an amount equal to that Holder’s pro rata interest in such excess amount taking into account the payment to be made pursuant to Section 3.03(a)(vi) below. Such remittance shall be made as soon as practicable in the form of a check remitted to the applicable Holder. No interest will be payable in connection with any payments made to Holders pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(vi)                              If the calculation of the Final Net Working Capital results in an amount in excess of the top end of the Target Net Working Capital Range, then the Paying Agent shall remit to MeadWestvaco an amount equal to MeadWestvaco’s pro rata interest in such excess amount, taking into account payments to be made pursuant to Section 3.03(a)(v) above. Such remittance shall be made as soon as practicable in the form of a check remitted to MeadWestvaco. No Interest will be payable in connection with any amount to be paid to Meadwestvaco pursuant to the proceeding sentence.

(b)                                 Closing of Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time thereafter on the records of the Company. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent for any reason, they shall be marked canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article III.

(c)                                  Termination of Merger Fund. Any portion of the Merger Fund (including any interest and other income resulting from any investment of the Merger Fund not previously distributed to Parent) that remains unclaimed by the Holders and other eligible Persons in accordance with this Article III for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any Holder who has not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of its claim for its portion of the Merger Consideration.

(d)                                 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue the per share Merger Consideration, together with any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05(b)(ii), in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate. Delivery of such affidavit and the posting of such bond shall be deemed delivery of a Certificate with respect to the relevant shares of common stock for purposes of this Article III.

Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the per share Merger Consideration or other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any former holder of Company Shares and Awards, such amounts as Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the former Holder of the Company Share or Awards in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be.

(f)                                    No Liability. None of Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Paying Agent nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be liable to any Person in respect of any portion of the Merger Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate has not been surrendered as of immediately prior to the date on which the per share Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such cash in respect of such Certificate shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g)                                 Investment of Merger Fund. The Paying Agent shall invest any cash included in the Merger Fund, as directed by Parent on a daily basis, provided that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent.

If the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital is below the low end of the Target Net Working Capital Range, Parent shall reduce the aggregate amount of the Merger Consideration by an amount equal to 75% of the difference between the low end of the Target Net Working Capital Range and the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital. If the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital is above the top end of the Target Net Working Capital Range, Parent shall increase the aggregate amount of the Merger Consideration by an amount equal to 75% of the difference between the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital and the top end of the Target Net Working Capital Range.

(ii)                                  No later than 90 calendar days following the Closing Date of the Merger, unless extended by mutual agreement of the Parent and Shareholders Representatives, Parent and Surviving Corporation will prepare a schedule showing the calculation of the Final Net Working Capital. If the Final Net Working Capital is below the low end of the Target Net Working Capital Range, then Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to remove from the Escrow Fund an amount equal to the difference between the Final Net Working Capital amount and the low end of the Target Net Working Capital Range. If the Final Net Working Capital is above the top end of the Target Net Working Capital Range, then Parent shall pay into the Merger Fund an amount equal to the difference between the Final Net Working Capital amount and the top end of the Target Net Working Capital Range. Any amount paid into the Merger Fund pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be paid to the Paying Agent for distribution to each Holder and MeadWestvaco as provided in Sections 3.03(a)(v) and 3.03(a)(vi)

22

hereof, respectively. All amounts paid pursuant to this subsection shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any adjustments of amount(s) paid on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 3.05(b)(i).

(iii)                               The Final Net Working Capital amount shall become final and binding on Parent, the Shareholders Representatives and the former shareholders of the Company unless the Shareholders Representatives give a written notice of disagreement (“Notice of Disagreement”) within 30 days following delivery by the Parent of the Final Net Working Capital amount to the Paying Agent. Any such Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the nature of any disagreement so asserted. If Parent and the Shareholders Representatives are unable to resolve the disagreement with respect to the Final Net Working Capital amount within 30 days following the issuance of the Notice of Disagreement, they shall refer the remaining differences to Grant Thornton LLP or another mutually agreeable accounting firm (“CPA Firm”), which acting as experts and not as arbitrators, shall determine only with respect to the remaining differences so submitted, whether and to what extent, if any, the Final Net Working Capital as set forth in the schedule described above requires adjustment. Parent and the Shareholders Representatives shall direct the CPA Firm to use its best efforts to render its determination within 45 days. The CPA Firm’s determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Parent, the Shareholders Representatives and the former shareholders of the Company. The fees and disbursements of the CPA Firm shall be shared equally by Parent and the former shareholders of the Company. In this regard, Parent shall be entitled to withdraw from the Escrow any amounts necessary to cover one-half of the fees and disbursements of the CPA Firm.

(f)                              Except as set forth on Section 4.16(f) of the Disclosure Schedule, neither the Company nor any entity that is a member of a controlled group with, under common control with, or otherwise required to be aggregated with, the Company pursuant to Sections 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code (an “ERISA Affiliate”) has communicated to present or former Employees of the Company, or formally adopted or authorized for present or former Employees of the Company, any plan not disclosed pursuant to Section 4.16(c) or any change in any existing plan that is not reflected in the Plan documents made available as described in Section 4.16(d) as to which the Company or an ERISA Affiliate has any unsatisfied liability.

(g)                           Except as to those plans identified on Section 4.16(g) of the Disclosure Schedule as tax-qualified Company Plans (the “Company Qualified Plans”), neither the Company nor the Company Subsidiaries maintain a Benefit Plan intended to meet the requirements of Code Section 401(a) and they have no liability with respect to any Benefit Plan which was previously maintained and was intended to meet the requirements of Code Section 401(a). The Internal Revenue Service has issued favorable determination letters (National Office favorable opinion letters in the case of prototype plans) to the effect that each Company Qualified Plan qualifies under Code Section 401(a) and that any related trust is exempt from

34

taxation under Code Section 501(a), and such determination letters remain in effect and have not been revoked. Copies of all outstanding requests for a determination letter with respect to each Company Qualified Plan have been delivered to Parent. Except as disclosed on Section 4.16(g) of the Disclosure Schedule, no Company Qualified Plan has been amended since the issuance of each respective determination letter (or National Office favorable opinion letter in the case of a prototype plan) in any manner which would adversely affect its tax qualification. The Company Qualified Plans currently comply in form in all material respects with the requirements under Code Section 401(a), other than changes required by statutes, regulations and rulings for which amendments are not yet required. No issue concerning the qualification of the Company Qualified Plans is pending before or to the knowledge of the Company is threatened by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company Qualified Plans have been administered in all material respects according to their terms (except for those terms which are inconsistent with the changes required by statutes, regulations, and rulings for which changes are not yet required to be made, in which case the Company Qualified Plans have been administered in all material respects in accordance with the provisions of those statutes, regulations and rulings) and in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 401(a). Neither the Company, the Company Subsidiaries nor any fiduciary of any Company Qualified Plan have done anything that would materially adversely affect the tax-qualified status of the Company Qualified Plans or the related trusts.

(h)                           Within the last five years no termination of any Company Qualified Plan has occurred nor has a notice of intent to terminate any Company Qualified Plan been issued by the Company or any Company Subsidiary and no partial termination of any Company Qualified Plan has occurred for which full vesting was not provided.

(i)                               Except as set forth in Section 4.16(i) of the Disclosure Schedule, none of the Company’s Plans is subject to Section 412 of the Code or Title IV of ERISA, and neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has any material outstanding liability with respect to any such plan (contingent or otherwise).

(j)                               None of the Company’s Plans is a “multi-employer plan” within the meaning of Section 3(37)(A) of ERISA, and the Company and the Company Subsidiaries do not have any outstanding Liability with respect to any such plan (contingent or otherwise). No Company Qualified Plan has suffered any accumulated funding deficiency within the meaning of ERISA Section 302 and Code Section 412. Neither the Company nor the Company Subsidiaries have any outstanding liability under Code Section 4971. As of the Closing Date, all required premium payments for Company Qualified Plans have been made, when due, to the PBGC. No event or condition exists with respect to any Company Qualified Plan which could be deemed a “reportable event” as defined in ERISA Section 4043, with respect to which the 30-day notice requirement has not been waived and which could result in a liability to Parent, and no condition exists which would subject Purchaser to a fine under ERISA Section 4071. The data described in Section 4.16(j) of the Disclosure Schedule relating to the Company’s Qualified Plans that are subject to Code Section 412, is complete and correct in all material respects as of January 1, 2006.

(k)                            Except as set forth on Section 4.16(k) of the Disclosure Schedule, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries are in material compliance with the requirements prescribed by any and all statutes, orders, governmental rules and regulations applicable to the

35

Company’s Plans, including, without limitation, Sections 601 through 734 of ERISA, and all reports and disclosures relating to the Company’s Plans required to be filed with or furnished to any governmental entity, participants or beneficiaries prior to the Closing Date have been or will be filed or furnished in a timely manner and in accordance with applicable law.

The assets of all Company Benefit Plans which are required under applicable laws to be held in trust are in fact held in trust, and, except as set forth in Section 4.16(m) of the Disclosure Schedule, the value of the assets of each such Company Benefit Plan (other than any Company Qualified Plan that is subject to Code Section 412) equal or exceed the liabilities of each such plan.

(n)                           The Company, the Company Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of the Company, any other “disqualified person” and any “party in interest” (as defined in Code Section 4975 and ERISA Section 3(14), respectively) with respect to the Company’s Plans, have not engaged in any “prohibited transaction” (as defined in Code Section 4975 or ERISA Section 406) or a breach of ERISA Section 404.

(o)                           Neither the Company nor the Company Subsidiaries have made or are obligated to make any nondeductible contributions to any of the Company’s Plan for the current or future tax years.

(p)                           Other than routine claims for benefits, there are no actions, audits, investigations, suits or claims pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against any of the Company’s Plans, any trust or other funding agency created thereunder, or against any fiduciary of any of the Company’s Plans or against the assets of any of the Company’s Plans.

50

Section 6.02                          Notice of Certain Events. The Parent and the Merger Sub on the one hand and the Holders and the Company on the other hand shall give prompt notice to the other of: (i) any notice or other communication from any Person alleging that any consent, waiver or approval of such Person is or may be required in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) any notice or other communication from any Governmental Entity or arbitrator or mediator in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; (iii) any Action or Proceeding commenced or, to its knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting Parent, Merger Sub or the Company that relates to the Business or may affect the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements; (iv) the occurrence of a default or event that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, will become a default under any Business Contract, Business License, and the leases for the Leased Personal Property and Leased Real Property; and (v) any change, event or occurrence that could reasonably be expected to render any of the representations and warranties given under Article IV and Article V, respectively, untrue or incorrect in any material respect, or to materially delay or materially impede the ability of the Parent, Merger Sub or the Company to perform their respective obligations pursuant to this Agreement and to effect the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements.

Section 6.03                                Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a)                                  Except as required pursuant to any confidentiality agreement or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Company or any of its Affiliates is a party or pursuant to applicable Law or the regulations or requirements of any regulatory organization with whose rules the Company is required to comply, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the Company shall (i) provide to Parent and Merger Sub (and their respective directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, consultants, financial advisers, agents and other advisors or representatives (collectively, “Representatives”)) access at reasonable times upon prior notice to its officers, employees, agents, properties, offices and other facilities and to the Books and Records thereof, and (ii) furnish promptly such information concerning its Business, properties, Contracts, Assets and Properties, Liabilities and personnel as Parent and Merger Sub or their respective Representatives may reasonably request. No investigation conducted pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made in this Agreement.

(b)                                 The parties hereto shall comply with, and shall cause their respective Representatives to comply with, all of their respective obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement with respect to the information disclosed pursuant to this Section 6.03 or pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Section 6.03 to the contrary, nothing will restrict the ability of the Parent, Merger Sub and the Company to make those disclosures which may be required by Law. At all times at or before Closing Date, the parties hereto will consult with each other before issuing or making any reports, statements or releases to the public with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and will obtain the other parties’ approval of the text of any public report, statement or release to be make on behalf of such party. If a party seeking to make disclosures is unable to obtain the approval of its public report, statement, or release from the other, and such disclosing party is

51

advised by legal counsel that such report, statement, or release is required by Law, then the disclosing party may make or issue such report, statement, or release; provided, however, that such disclosure, statement or report shall contain only so much of the contested information as such party’s legal counsel advises is required by Law, and shall promptly furnish the opposite party with a copy thereof.

Section 6.04                                No Solicitation of Transactions.

(a)                                  No Solicitation or Negotiation. During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company agrees that it and its Subsidiaries shall not, and that it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that none of its or its Subsidiaries’ respective Representatives shall, directly or indirectly, take any of the following actions:

(i)                                     solicit, initiate, encourage or otherwise facilitate (including by way of furnishing non-public information) any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer (including any proposal from or offer to the Company’s shareholders) with respect to, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal;

(ii)                                  enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person any non-public information or grant access to its properties, books and records or personnel in connection with, any Acquisition Proposal; or

(iii)                               terminate, release, amend, waive or modify any provision of any confidentiality, standstill or similar agreement to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is a party (or fail to take reasonable measures to enforce the provisions of any such agreements).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, but only prior to the approval and adoption of this Agreement at the Company Meeting, to the extent failure to do so would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the fiduciary duties to shareholders by the Company board under applicable law, as determined in good faith by the Company board after consultation with outside counsel, in response to a bona fide, unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal received by the Company after the date of this Agreement that the Company board determines in good faith after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisor is reasonably expected to result in a Superior Proposal, in each case, so long as such Acquisition Proposal did not result from a breach by the Company of this Section 6.04 and the Company has complied with this Section 6.04 in all material respects, (x) furnish information with respect to the Company to the person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement not less restrictive of the other party than the Confidentiality Agreement, (y) participate in discussions or negotiations with such person and its Representatives regarding any Acquisition Proposal, and (z) waive any standstill provisions related to the submission of such Acquisition Proposal; provided that the Company shall substantially contemporaneously make available to Parent and Merger Sub (to the extent it has not previously done so) all non-public information made available to such person making such Acquisition Proposal.

(b)                                 No Change in Recommendation or Alternative Acquisition Agreement. During the Pre-Closing Period, neither the Company board nor any committee thereof shall:

52

(i)                                     fail to make, withhold, withdraw or modify or change in any manner adverse to Parent, or publicly propose or resolve to fail to make, withhold, withdraw or modify or change in a manner adverse to Parent, the approval or recommendation by the Company board or any committee thereof with respect to the Merger or the Company Voting Proposal;

(ii)                                  approve, recommend or take any position other than to recommend rejection (including withdrawing, modifying or changing in a manner adverse to Parent any such recommendation of rejection) of any Acquisition Proposal (either of clause (i) and/or clause (ii) of this Section 6.1(b), a “Change in the Company Recommendation”); or

(iii)                               authorize, cause or permit the Company to enter into (or publicly propose that the Company enter into) any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement or other similar agreement (an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”) with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or authorize, approve or publicly recommend or propose to approve or recommend any Acquisition Proposal or any agreement, understanding or arrangement relating to any Acquisition Proposal (or resolve or authorize or propose to agree to do any of the foregoing actions), except for a confidentiality agreement referred to in Section 6.04(a) entered into in the circumstances referred to in Section 6.04(a).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time prior to the approval and adoption date of this Agreement at the Company Meeting only, the Company receives an unsolicited Superior Proposal and the Company board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to take action would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of the fiduciary duties to the shareholders by the Company board under applicable law, following expiration of the Notice Period (as defined below) the Company board may (A) effect a Change in the Company Recommendation or (B) terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided that the Company board may not effect such Change in the Company Recommendation pursuant to the foregoing clause (A) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (B) unless:

(u)                                 the Company has complied in all material respects with, and the Acquisition Proposal was not a result of a breach by the Company of, Section 6.04;

(v)                                 the Company board shall have first provided prior written notice to Parent that it is prepared to effect a Change in the Company Recommendation in response to a Superior Proposal or terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, which notice shall attach the most current version of any proposed written agreements relating to the transaction that constitutes such Superior Proposal, including the identity of the person making such Superior Proposal and shall promptly notify Parent of any material revisions to the Superior Proposal;

(w)                               Parent and its Representatives shall have had three Business Days following receipt of such notice from the Company (or longer period if extended

53

by the mutual agreement of the Company and Parent) (the “Notice Period”) to make a proposal (if Parent desires) to modify the terms of this Agreement;

(x)                                   following receipt of any such proposal with respect to modifications to the terms of this Agreement by Parent, the Company and its Representatives shall have negotiated in good faith with Parent and its Representatives (if Parent desires to so negotiate) to make such modifications to the terms of this Agreement as would make the relevant Acquisition Proposal no longer a Superior Proposal;

(y)                                 after the Company and its Representatives shall have negotiated in good faith with Parent and its Representatives to make such modifications to the terms of this Agreement as would make the relevant Acquisition Proposal no longer a Superior Proposal, the Company board shall have again determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor, and after taking into account any such modifications proposed by Parent, that failure to effect a Change in the Company Recommendation in response to such Superior Proposal or terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal would reasonably be expected to be a breach of its fiduciary duties to shareholders under applicable Law; and

(z)                                   with respect to a termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to clause (B) of this Section 6.04(b), the Company shall have paid the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.03(b), prior to, and as a condition of, such termination.

The Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice in the event of any material revisions to the Superior Proposal, in which event a new Notice Period shall commence following receipt of such new written notice by Parent.

(c)                                  Notices to Parent. The Company shall as promptly as possible (but in any event within twelve hours) provide oral and written notice to Parent of receipt by the Company of any Acquisition Proposal, any inquiry with respect to, or any request for non-public information in connection with, any Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry or request and the identity of the person making any such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry or request and shall keep Parent reasonably informed of the status thereof and of any material communications, material modifications or material developments with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry or request, including, without limitation, copies of all Acquisition Proposals, inquiries or requests and written information relating thereto, including draft agreements, term sheets and material communications. The Company agrees that it and its Subsidiaries will not enter into a confidentiality agreement with any person subsequent to the date of this Agreement that prohibits the Company from providing such information to Parent.

(d)                                 Cessation of Ongoing Discussions. The Company shall inform its Representatives of the obligations undertaken in this Section 6.04 promptly following the date of this Agreement. The Company shall, and shall direct its Representatives to, cease immediately

54

all discussions and negotiations that commenced prior to the date of this Agreement regarding any proposal that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal and shall request that all confidential information previously furnished to any such third parties be promptly returned or destroyed.

Section 6.05                                Proxy Statement.

(a)                                  As promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, but in no event later than February 15, 2007, the Company, in cooperation with Parent, shall prepare and mail the proxy statement to the Company’s shareholders of record as of the record date set by the Company’s board (referred to herein as the “Proxy Statement”). Subject to Section 6.04(a), the Company, acting through the Company board, shall include in the Proxy Statement the recommendation of the Company Board that the shareholders of the Company vote in favor of the Merger and the adoption of this Agreement (the “Company Recommendation”). Whenever any event occurs which is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, Parent or the Company, as the case may be, shall promptly inform the other of such occurrence and cooperate in mailing to shareholders of the Company, such amendment or supplement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not mail to its shareholders the Proxy Statement, any amendment thereto, any other soliciting material or any such other documents without Parent’s prior approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), except that such approval shall not be required for mailings necessitated by a Change in the Company Recommendation made in accordance with Section 6.04.

(b)                                 The Company agrees, as to itself and its Subsidiaries, that none of the information supplied or to be supplied by it or its Subsidiaries for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement will, at the date of mailing to the Company’s shareholders and at the time of the Company Meeting or the date of any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Parent agrees, as to itself and Merger Sub, that none of the information supplied or to be supplied by it or its Merger Sub for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement will, at the date of mailing to the Company’s shareholders and at the time of the Company Meeting or the date of any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each of the Company and Parent agree to correct any information provided by it for inclusion in the Proxy Statement which shall have become false or misleading.

Section 6.06                                Shareholders Meeting.

(a)                                  The Company, acting through the Company board, shall take all actions in accordance with applicable law and the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws to promptly and duly call, give notice of, convene and hold as promptly as practicable the Company Meeting for the purpose of considering and voting upon the Company Voting Proposal. Subject to Section 6.04, (i) the Company board shall recommend approval of the Company Voting Proposal by the shareholders of the Company and include such recommendation in the Proxy

55

Statement, (ii) the Company board shall not withhold, withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to Parent, the recommendation of the Company board that the Company’s shareholders vote in favor of the Company Voting Proposal, and (iii) the Company shall take all action that is both reasonable and lawful to solicit from its shareholders proxies in favor of the Company Voting Proposal and shall take all other action reasonably necessary or advisable to secure the vote or consent of the shareholders of the Company required by the DGCL, the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws to obtain such approvals. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company may adjourn or postpone the Company Meeting, if, as of the time for which the Company Meeting is originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement) there are insufficient Company Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Meeting. Furthermore, the Company may, with the prior written approval of Parent, adjourn or postpone the Company Meeting to the extent necessary to ensure that any required supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement is provided to the Company’s shareholders.

(b)                                 Prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01, (i) nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit in any way the obligation of the Company to convene and hold the Company Meeting in accordance with Section 6.06(a) of this Agreement and (ii) the Company shall not submit to the vote of its shareholders any Acquisition Proposal other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(a)                                  As promptly as practicable and in any event no later than ten Business Days after the end of each calendar month and 15 days after the end of each fiscal quarter ending after the date hereof and before the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent true and complete copies of the unaudited income statements for the fiscal quarter or month and the portion of the fiscal year then ended (in the case of any such fiscal quarter and calendar month), together with the notes, if any, relating thereto, which income statements shall be prepared on the same basis as the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 4.06. Upon delivery of any income statement pursuant to this Section 6.07(a), an unaudited consolidated balance sheet dated as of the most recent month then ended shall also be provided to Parent with respect to the Company.

(b)                                 As promptly as practicable, the Company shall deliver to Parent true and complete copies of such other financial statements and reports as are specified in Section 6.07(b) of the Disclosure Schedule.

(c)                                  As promptly as practicable, the Company shall deliver to Parent copies of all License applications and other filings made by the Company in connection with the operation of the Business after the date hereof and before the Closing Date with any Governmental Entity (other than routine, recurring filings made in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice).

(a)                                  The Company shall notify Parent and Merger Sub in writing of, and shall contemporaneously provide Parent and Merger Sub with true and complete copies of any and all information or documents relating to, and shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cure before the Closing, any event, transaction or circumstance, as soon as practicable after it becomes known to the Company, occurring after the date of this Agreement that causes or may cause any covenant or agreement of the Company under this Agreement to be breached or that renders or may render untrue in any material respect any representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement as if the same were made on or as of the date of such event, transaction or circumstance. The Company also shall notify Parent and Merger Sub in writing of, and shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cure, before the Closing, any violation or breach, as soon as practicable after it becomes known to the Company, of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company in this Agreement, whether occurring or arising before, on or after the date of this Agreement. No notice given pursuant to this Section 6.09(a) shall have any effect on the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement for purposes of determining satisfaction of any condition contained herein or shall in any way limit Parent’s right to seek indemnity under Article X.

(b)                                 Parent and Merger Sub shall notify the Company in writing of, and shall contemporaneously provide the Company with true and complete copies of any and all information or documents relating to, and shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cure before the Closing, any event, transaction or circumstance, as soon as practicable after it becomes known to Parent and Merger Sub, occurring after the date of this Agreement that causes or may cause any covenant or agreement of Parent and Merger Sub under this Agreement to be breached or that renders or may render untrue in any material respect any representation or warranty of Parent and Merger Sub contained in this Agreement as if the same were made on or as of the date of such event, transaction or circumstance. Parent and Merger Sub shall notify the Company in writing of, and shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cure, before the Closing, any violation or breach, as soon as practicable after it becomes known to Parent and Merger Sub, of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Parent and Merger Sub in this Agreement, whether occurring or arising before, on or after the date of this Agreement.

Immediately before the Closing, the Company shall terminate the deferred compensation plans listed on Section 7.01 to the Disclosure Schedule, and the parties to this Agreement consent and agree that, on the first Business Day following the Closing, each participant and beneficiary under the terminated deferred compensation plans shall receive from the Surviving Company or Parent, on behalf of the Company, a lump sum cash payment (the “Release Payment”) in an amount equal to all deferred compensation and accrued earnings (less applicable tax withholdings) owing to such participant or beneficiary under the terms of the relevant deferred compensation plan. On the Closing Date, the Company shall obtain from each participant and beneficiary of each deceased participant of each such plan consent to the termination of the applicable plan and payment of such recipient’s benefit in one lump sum,

58

acknowledgment of the amount owed to the individual under the applicable plan, and a duly executed satisfaction and release, in a form satisfactory to the Company and Parent, whereby such recipient acknowledges that all obligations of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries and any other Subsidiary of the Company under the relevant deferred compensation plan will as a result of the payment of described herein be satisfied and releases the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, any other Subsidiary of the Company, the Surviving Company and Parent from any and all further obligation under such deferred compensation plan, including without limitation any tax liability that the recipient may have with respect to the benefits paid under the applicable plan. Section 7.01 of the Disclosure Schedule contains a complete and accurate statement of the amount owed to each participant and beneficiary under each such deferred compensation plan, and the Company will update such Section 7.01 of the Disclosure Schedule as of the Closing Date so that Section 7.01 of the Disclosure Schedule is complete and accurate as of such date and the Company represents that Section 7.01 of the Disclosure Schedule will be accurate and complete when updated as of the Closing Date.

In connection with any such action, the Company may write off or write down its carrying value for the Vicksburg Notes as it deems appropriate.

59

terminations, layoffs or reductions of hours by the Company during the 90 day period prior to the Closing, result in a violation of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (“WARN Act”) or any similar Law. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the management decisions of Parent or Merger Sub with respect to the Employees, or to create or to grant such Employees any third party beneficiary rights or claims or causes of action of any kind or nature.

shareholders and/or MeadWestvaco on any matters concerning this Agreement, the Shareholders Representatives shall be entitled to seek such further authorization from the shareholders or MeadWestvaco, as the case may be, prior to acting on their behalf. In the event further authorization is sought from the shareholders, each holder of voting common stock of the Company shall have a number of votes equal to the number of shares of voting common stock owned by that shareholder on the Closing Date, and the authorization of a majority of such number of shares of voting common stock shall be binding on all of the shareholders and shall constitute the authorization by the shareholders.

The appointment of the Shareholders Representatives is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable by any shareholder in any manner or for any reason. This power of attorney shall not be affected by the disability or incapacity of the principal pursuant to any applicable Law.

(d)                                 Acts of the Shareholders Representatives. Any act of the Shareholders Representatives shall require the act of a majority of the Shareholders Representatives.

The Shareholders Representatives may seek the advice of legal counsel in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the provisions of this Agreement or their duties hereunder, and they shall incur no liability to the Parent, Merger Sub, the shareholders, MeadWestvaco or the Escrow Agent and shall be fully protected with respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by them in good faith in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.

The Shareholders Representatives may from time to time submit invoices to the Company and to the Escrow Agent covering such expenses.

(h)                                 The Shareholders Representatives shall be indemnified by Holders from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), arising from or related to any acts undertaken (and any omissions to act) in their capacity as Sharheolders Representatives, except to the extent attributable to Shareholders Representatives’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. Holders, by their approval of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, agree to bear the costs of such expense reimbursement and indemnification on a pro-rata basis in accordance with their pro rata equity interest in the Company immediately prior to the Closing.

(b)                                 by either Parent and Merger Sub or the Company, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before April 30, 2007 (the “Expiration Date”), unless any Action or Proceeding is pending as of such date, in which case the Expiration Date will be postponed until the conclusion of such Action or Proceeding; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.01(b) shall not be available to any party whose action or failure to act has been the cause or resulted in the failure of the transactions contemplated hereby to occur on or before such date and such action or failure to act constitutes a breach of this Agreement and in the event of such a breach, the Expiration Date shall automatically be extended to a date that is 30 calendar days following the date the breach causing the delay has been cured;

(c)                                  by either Parent and Merger Sub or the Company, if any Order preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall have been entered by any court of competent jurisdiction and shall have become final and nonappealable;

(d)                                 by Parent or Merger Sub, upon a breach in any material respect of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Company set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Company shall have become untrue or incorrect in any material respect either as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.03 would not be satisfied; provided, however, that Parent and/or Merger Sub shall be obligated to provide the Company with written notice of their intention to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 9.01(d) and if the matter for which such notice is given is capable of being cured, then, the Company shall have until the earlier of 30 days or the Expiration Date to cure the matter with respect to which such notice is given, if the Company cures the matter for which notice is given within the period specified in this Section 9.01(d) then this Agreement shall not be terminated but shall remain in effect, if the Company does not cure such matter within such period then this Agreement shall terminate at the expiration of such period;

(e)                                  by the Company upon a breach in any material respect of any covenant or agreement on the part of Parent or Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Parent or Merger Sub shall have become untrue or incorrect in any

66

material respect as of the date of this Agreement or as of the Closing Date, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.02 would not be satisfied; provided, however, that the Company shall be obligated to provide Parent and Merger Sub with written notice of its intention to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 9.01(e) and if the matter for which such notice is given is capable of being cured, then, Parent and Merger Sub shall have until the earlier of 30 days or the Expiration Date to cure the matter with respect to which such notice is given, if Parent and Merger Sub cure the matter for which notice is given within the period specified in this Section 9.01(e) then this Agreement shall not be terminated but shall remain in effect, if Parent and Merger Sub do not cure such matter within such period then this Agreement shall terminate at the expiration of such period;

(f)                                    by either Parent or Merger Sub or the Company if, at the Company Meeting at which a vote on the Company Voting Proposal is taken, the vote necessary to approve the adoption of the Company Voting Proposal shall not have been obtained; provided that the right to terminate under this Section 9.01(f) shall not be available to the Company if the Company is in breach of its obligations under Sections 6.04, 6.05 or 6.06;

(g)                                 by Parent or Merger Sub, if: (i) the Company board shall have failed to include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement or shall have effected a Change in the Company Recommendation; (ii) the Company board shall have approved or recommended to the shareholders of the Company an Acquisition Proposal; or (iii) the Company shall have failed to call the Company Meeting in accordance with Section 6.06 or shall have failed to deliver the Proxy Statement in accordance with Section 6.05;

(h)                                 by the Company, prior to the Company Meeting, under the circumstances and to the extent permitted, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 6.04(b) and provided that the Termination Fee referenced in Section 9.03(b)(ii) shall have been paid by the Company to such Person or Person(s) as shall have been designated in writing by Parent;

(i)                                     The right of any party hereto to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.01 will remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any party hereto, any Person controlling any such party or any of their respective officers, directors or Representatives, whether prior to or after the execution of this Agreement.

Section 9.02                                Effect of Termination. Except as provided in Section 9.03, in the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, there shall be no liability under this Agreement on the part of any party hereto or any of its Affiliates or any of its or their officers or directors, and all rights and obligations of each party hereto shall cease; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from liability for the willful or intentional breach of any provisions of this Agreement prior to its termination; and provided, further, that the provisions of Section 6.03(b), this Section 9.02, Section 9.03 and Article XI shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement.

67

Section 9.03                                Expenses; Specific Performance.

(a)                                  All Expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such Expenses, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity; provided that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to Parent and Merger Sub if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.01(h) hereof.

(b)                                 The Company shall pay to such person or person(s) as shall be designated in writing by Parent a termination fee in an amount equal to $3,000,000 plus reimbursement of all of Parent’s documented out-of-pocket expenses (the “Termination Fee”), if:

(ii)                                  immediately prior to termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01(h); or

(iii)                               if (A) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.01(b), Section 9.01(d) or Section 9.01(f) and at any time after the date hereof and prior to such termination any Acquisition Proposal shall have been made known to the Company or publicly disclosed, and (B) within twelve months after any such termination, the Company or any of its Affiliates consummates, or becomes a party to any Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to, any Acquisition Proposal, which was outstanding at the time of such termination or is related to any Acquisition Proposal that existed at or prior to the time of such termination.

ARTICLE X

SURVIVAL, INDEMNIFICATION AND ESCROW

Section 10.01                          Survival. The covenants, obligations, representations and warranties of Parent, Merger Sub, and the Company contained in this Agreement, or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, shall be deemed to be material and to have been relied upon by the parties hereto notwithstanding any investigation prior to the Closing and shall survive the date of Closing until the termination of the Escrow Fund (as defined below); and shall not be merged into any documents delivered in connection with the Closing.

68

Section 10.02                          Escrow Fund. On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, in accordance with Section 3.05(a), the Escrow Amount shall be deposited with JP Morgan & Co. (or its successor in interest or other financial institution selected by Parent with the consent of the other parties to the Escrow Agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”). The Escrow Amount so deposited, together with interest and other income thereon, if any, shall constitute the “Escrow Fund” and shall be governed by the terms set forth in this Agreement and in the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Fund shall be available to compensate Parent pursuant to the indemnification obligations of the other parties hereto, including any indemnification claim made by Parent under this Article X. The Escrow Agreement shall have a term of 18 months. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that on the first anniversary of the Agreement all amounts other than the Escrow Reserve Amount (as defined below) shall be returned from the Escrow Fund (the “Initial Escrow Release Amount”), together with any interest accrued with respect to the Initial Escrow Release Amount. As used herein “Escrow Reserve Amount” shall mean $2,600,000 plus the amount of the estimated value of any asserted and unresolved claims existing as of the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that the Escrow Reserve Amount (together with any interest earned thereon) shall remain in the Escrow Fund for a period of 18 months following the date of this Agreement and shall be released at the conclusion of that period, net of the estimated value of any asserted and unresolved claims, which amount shall be withheld from the amount released. The Shareholders Representatives will have the option of removing all of the cash from the Escrow Fund at any time following the establishment thereof if the amount of the Escrow Fund is replaced with any irrevocable standby letter of credit in favor of Parent issued by a bank reasonably satisfactory to Parent. Such letter of credit must be in the same amount as the Escrow Fund at the time of withdrawal, must be available for draw on the same terms as the Escrow Fund and must have a term identical to the remaining term of the Escrow Fund.

Section 10.03                          Indemnification.

(a)                                  Indemnification by Company. If, after the Closing Date, Parent and/or its officers, directors, and/or Affiliates (each a “Parent Indemnitee” and together “Parent Indemnitees”) suffer any damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, claims of any kind, interest or expenses arising from, related to, or as a result of (i) the failure of any representation or warranty made by Company in this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date made (provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 10.03(a), in determining whether there has been a breach of any such warranty or representation, if any such warranty representation is qualified in any respect by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, such qualifications or exceptions will be ignored) or (ii) any breach by the Company of any of its covenants or agreements contained herein which are to be performed by the Company on or before the Closing Date (any of the foregoing are hereinafter referred to as an “ “), then, subject to the other provisions of this Article X, each such Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to be reimbursed the amount of such Indemnified Loss solely from the Escrow Fund.

(b)                                 Indemnification by Parent. After the Closing Date, Parent agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Company and its officers, directors and/or Affiliates (each “Company Indemnitee” and together the “Company Indemnitees”) harmless from any loss suffered or paid, directly or indirectly, as a result of (i) the failure of any representation or

69

warranty made by the Parent in this Agreement to be true and correct as of the date made and (ii) any breach by Parent of any of its covenants or agreements contained herein.

Section 10.04                          Third Party Claims.

(a)                                  If a claim, action, suit or proceeding by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”) is made against any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof (an “Indemnified Party”), and if such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this Article X, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Party obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party (or, in the case of a Parent Indemnity seeking indemnification, such Parent Indemnity shall promptly notify the Shareholders Representatives) (such notified party, the “Responsible Party”) of such claims; provided, that the failure to so notify shall not relieve the Responsible Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Responsible Parties actually are materially prejudiced thereby.

(b)                                 The Responsible Party shall have 30 days after receipt of such notice to assume the conduct and control, through counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party at the expense of the Responsible Party (provided that it is understood that with respect to the Shareholders Representatives, the Responsible Party shall be deemed to be the Escrow Fund), of the settlement or defense thereof, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with it in connection therewith; provided that the Responsible Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party, and further provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be born by such Indemnified Party. So long as the Responsible Party is reasonably contesting any such claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle any such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to pay or settle any such claim (whether or not appropriate notices has been given by Indemnified Party), provided that in such event it shall waive any right to indemnity therefore by the Responsible Party, as the case may be, for such claim unless the Responsible Party shall have consented to such payment or settlement. If (and only if) the Responsible Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 30 days after receipt of the Indemnified Party’s notice of a claim of indemnity hereunder that it elects to undertake the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to contest, settle or compromise the claims but shall not thereby waive any right to indemnity therefore pursuant to this Agreement.

(c)                                  The Parent and the Shareholders Representatives shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of any Thirty Party Claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

Section 10.05                          Limitations on Indemnification Obligations. The rights of the Parent Indemnitees to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.03(a) above are subject to the following limitations:

(a)                                  Indemnity Cap. Subject to Section 10.03(a), the indemnity cap for Indemnified Losses of Parent Indemnitees will be the amount of the Escrow Fund.

70

(b)                                 Indemnity Basket. Parent Indemnitees shall not be entitled to recover for any particular Indemnified Loss pursuant to Section 10.03(a) above, unless such Indemnified Loss, together with any related losses equals or exceeds $25,000 (the “Individual Indemnified Loss Claim Threshold”). If the Individual Indemnified Loss Claim Threshold for any particular Indemnified Loss is met, then the entire amount of such Indemnified Loss will be credited against a basket amount of $500,000 (the “Aggregate Indemnity Claim Threshold”). Once the Aggregate Indemnity Claim Threshold is met, Parent Indemnities shall be entitled to recover for all Indemnified Losses in excess of the Aggregate Indemnity Claim Threshold pursuant to Section 10.03(a) above.

(c)                                  Exceptions to Basket. It is understood and agreed that the terms of Section 10.05(b) will not apply to any loss pursuant to 10.03(a) above to the extent that such loss arises from a breach of Section 4.16(u) hereof, Section 4.17(a) hereof, Section 4.17(b) hereof, Section 4.17(c) hereof and as a result of any omission of Indebtedness from Section 3.01(b) of the Disclosure Schedule.

Section 10.06                          Assignment by Parent. No consent by any party hereto shall be required for any assignment or reassignment of the rights of Parent or Merger Sub under this Article X.

Section 11.02                          Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified by the parties hereto at any time prior to the Closing Date. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

Section 11.03                          Waiver, Rights and Remedies Cumulative. At any time prior to the Closing Date, any party hereto may (a) extend the time for or waive compliance with the performance of any obligation or other act of any other party hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of any other party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (c) waive compliance by the other party with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby. No delay on the part of either party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver hereof, nor shall any single or partial waiver or exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that either party may otherwise have at law or in equity.

Section 11.04                          Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in order that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 11.05                          Assignment by Company; Binding Effect; No Third Party Beneficiary. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by the Company (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Parent. This Agreement may be assigned by Parent to any wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Parent of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent any obligations so assigned are not fully preformed by any such assignee. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, other than Article X, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer on

73

any person other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 11.06                          Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within that state, and no effect shall be given to any conflict-of-laws principles thereof directing the application of any Law other than the laws of the State of Delaware.

Section 11.07                          Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any proceeding (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any transaction or agreement contemplated hereby or the actions of any party hereto in the negotiation, administration, performance or enforcement hereof.

Section 11.08                          Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

Section 11.09                          Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 11.10                          Arbitration.

(a)                                  Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.10(c) below, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate (each a “Dispute”), shall be resolved by arbitration in Chicago, Illinois, before one arbitrator who is an attorney. The arbitration shall be administered by the Chicago, Illinois office of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) pursuant to this Section 11.10, the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Federal Arbitration Act. In the event of a conflict, this Section 11.10 shall govern. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have the power to provide any relief available at law or in equity under the laws of the State of Georgia. The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned award to the parties deciding the issues in dispute within 30 days of the evidentiary hearing, or, if no such hearing is held, within 30 days of receiving all of the parties’ submissions. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court that may properly assert jurisdiction over the Parties against which judgment will be enforced.

(b)                                 Allocation of Arbitration Fees and Costs. The arbitrator shall, in the award, allocate the costs of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrator and the reasonable attorneys’ fees of the Prevailing Party, against the non-prevailing party. The “Prevailing Party,”

74

as it is used in this Section 11.10(b), shall be determined by the arbitrator, who shall consider, among other things, the good faith of the parties, the party that prevails on the majority of the claims and counterclaims before the arbitrator and the monetary value of the claims or counterclaims decided by the arbitrator.

(c)                                  Enforcement of Sections 11.10(a) and 11.10(b). The provisions of Sections 11.10(a) and 11.10(b) may be enforced by any court that may properly assert jurisdiction over the parties. The party successfully seeking enforcement shall be a Prevailing Party under Section 11.10(b) above, and thus shall be entitled to an award of all of its costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party hereto may at any time apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for injunctive relief in the event of an alleged breach of this Agreement or otherwise to prevent irreparable harm, provided the party complies with Sections 11.06 and 11.07. The Company may at any time apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to bring a claim based upon Parent or Merger Sub’s failure to pay the Purchase Price in full as provided for in Section 3.01, provided that the Company complies with Sections 11.06 and 11.07.

Section 11.11                          Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Ancillary Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the parties with respect thereto. No addition or modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be binding upon any party hereto unless made in writing and signed by all parties hereto.
