2008 Short-Term Incentive Compensation Awards.  The annual incentive
compensation awards are based upon performance goals approved by the
Compensation Committee. As further described below, two performance goals
apply to the 2008 awards to the executives named in the table below, with one
goal based on operating income and a second goal based on achievement of
enterprise synergies. The operating income goal for Messrs. Stotlar and
Schick is based on the performance of the Company; the operating income goal
for Mr. Bianco is based on the performance of Menlo Worldwide; and the
operating income goal for Mr. Labrie is based on the performance of Con-way

2008 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Awards

2008 long-term incentive compensation awards include performance share plan
unit awards, restricted stock awards, and stock option awards.

A.   Awards of Performance Share Plan Units. Each performance share plan unit
described in the table below is made pursuant to, and is governed by the
terms of, the Company's 2006 Equity and Incentive Plan and a performance
share plan unit grant agreement in the form attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
Except as described in the following paragraph, the number of performance
share plan units that are eligible to vest ("eligible PSPUs") is dependent
upon the Company's earnings per share from continuing operations for the one-
year period from January 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008, and can range
from 0% to 100% of the target award.

All eligible PSPUs will vest on January 28, 2011 (the third anniversary of
the grant date) or earlier upon a change in control occurring after December
31, 2008.  A pro rata portion (based on the number of months elapsed divided
by 36) of the eligible PSPUs will vest upon the executive's death or
disability, or upon retirement at or after age 65 or pursuant to the "Rule of
85" (that is, age plus years of service equal to or greater than 85), in each
case occurring at any time after December 31, 2008. A pro rata portion (based
on the number of months elapsed divided by 12) of the target PSPUs will vest
upon a change in control occurring during the period from January 1, 2008
through December 31, 2008. Dividend equivalents are not paid on performance
share plan units. The foregoing description of the performance share plan
unit awards is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of
performance share plan unit award grant agreement in the form attached as
Exhibit 99.1 to this Report on Form 8-K.
