Visant Corporation (“Visant” or the “Company”) today announced that each of Messrs. Alexander Navab and George M.C. Fisher resigned as of October 10, 2014 as directors of Visant and its parent corporations, Visant Holding Corp. and Visant Secondary Holdings Corp. (collectively, the “Visant Entities”), and its Jostens, Inc. subsidiary (“Jostens”). Mr. Navab served as a director of the Visant Entities since 2004, and Mr. Fisher served as a director of the Visant Entities since 2005. Mr. Navab was until 2014 a member of the Executive and Compensation Committees. Joining the Board of Directors effective as of October 13, 2014 by vote of the directors of the Visant Entities and in accordance with the applicable stockholder agreement are Mr. Charles W. Mooty, President and Chief Executive Officer of Jostens, and Mr. Webster Chua, Director, Principal Activities, at Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (“KKR”).

Mr. Mooty has been the President and CEO of Jostens since January 2014 and prior to that served as Interim CEO and President of Fairview Health Services from 2012 to 2013 in addition to being a member of Fairview’s board. Prior to his role at Fairview, Mr. Mooty held the position of CEO of Faribault Woolen Mill Co. from 2011 to 2013 and before that served as the Chairman, CEO and President of International Dairy Queen, Inc. from 2001 to 2008. He currently serves on the Board of Directors of each of Fairview Health Services and Faribault Woolen Mill Co.

Mr. Chua joined KKR in 2006 and is a member of KKR’s principal activities group. From 2006 to 2012, he was a member of KKR’s media and communications private equity industry team. At KKR, Mr. Chua has been involved with the investments in First Data Corporation, IPREO, Legg Mason, and Visant. Prior to joining KKR, he was with Goldman, Sachs & Co. in its technology, media, and telecommunications investment banking group, where he was involved in a number of merger, acquisition, and financing transactions.

Neither of Messrs. Mooty or Chua has been appointed to any committees of the Boards of Directors.

Marc Reisch, Chuck Mooty, Tagar Olson, David Burgstahler and Webster Chua, and Ms. Susan Schnabel, all of who will also serve on the Board of Directors of Jostens.
