Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in these slides and made during this presentation may be considered forward-looking
statements. These statements reflect management's current views and are subject to risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in these statements.
Factors which could cause actual results to differ include but are not limited to: (i) the level of our
indebtedness and increases in interest rates; (ii) industry conditions, including but not limited to changes in
the cost or availability of raw materials, energy and transportation costs, competition we face, cyclicality and
changes in consumer preferences, demand and pricing for our products; (iii) global economic conditions and
political changes, including but not limited to the impairment of financial institutions, changes in currency
exchange rates, credit ratings issued by recognized credit rating organizations, the amount of our future
pension funding obligation, changes in tax laws and pension and health care costs; (iv) unanticipated
expenditures related to the cost of compliance with existing and new environmental and other governmental
regulations and to actual or potential litigation; (v) whether we experience a material disruption at one of our
manufacturing facilities; (vi) risks inherent in conducting business through a joint venture; (vii) the receipt of
governmental and other approvals and favorable rulings associated with the agreed-upon transaction
combining xpedx with Unisource, the successful fulfillment or waiver of all other closing conditions for such
transaction without unexpected delays or conditions, and the successful closing of such transaction within
the estimated timeframe; and (viii) our ability to achieve the benefits we expect from all strategic
acquisitions, divestitures and restructurings. These and other factors that could cause or contribute to actual
results differing materially from such forward-looking statements are discussed in greater detail in our
Securities and Exchange Commission filings. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-
looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
