The closing of the proposed transaction is subject to financing and customary closing conditions and regulatory review and is expected to occur later in the third quarter.

Use of Forward-Looking Statements

SAFE HARBOR TATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

This report contains “forward-looking statements”, including, without limitation, statements concerning expectations regarding the proposed transactions. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather predictions and generally can be identified by use of statements that include such words as “may”, “might”, “will”, “should”, “estimate”, “project”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “intend”, “outlook”, “believe”, “evaluate” and other similar expressions that are intended to identify forward-looking statements and information. These forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions by management that, although believed to be reasonable, are inherently uncertain and subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from current expectations depending upon a number of factors affecting the businesses and risks associated with the successful execution of the proposed transaction. These factors include, without limitation, successful completion of the proposed transaction in the time period anticipated or at all, which is dependent on the parties’ ability to satisfy certain closing conditions, and those identified under “Risk Factors” in Visant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2015, in addition to those discussed in Visant’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.

We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, and any such forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the cautionary statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are based on current expectations and involve a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements in light of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
