Re: Limited Waiver and Amendment
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is hereby made to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement,
dated as of March 10, 2000 (as heretofore amended and in effect on the date
hereof, the "Credit Agreement"), by and among WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT, INC., a
Delaware corporation, and DATA BUSINESS FORMS LIMITED, a corporation organized

BANK ONE, N.A., as syndication agent, and BANK OF AMERICA, COMERICA BANK and
UNION BANK OF CALIFORNIA, N.A., as co-agents for the Lenders. Capitalized terms
used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in
the Credit Agreement.
Reference is further made to a certain Limited Waiver and Amendment dated
as of July 16, 2002, as amended by a certain Amendment No. 1 to Limited Waiver
and Amendment dated as of August 15, 2002 (collectively, the "July 16 Limited

also any Events of Defaults under Section 8.09(b) (Senior Leverage Ratio) of the

amend certain provisions of the Credit Agreement, and the Agent and the Lenders
have agreed to do so, but only upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
1. Waivers. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth below,
for the period commencing on October 15, 2002 (the "Closing Date") and ending on

Period"), the Agent and the Required Lenders hereby agree to waive each of the
Specified Defaults and the Senior Leverage Defaults.
2. Amendments. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth
below, from and after the date of this letter agreement, the Credit Agreement is

applied to the scheduled installments of principal due on the
Dollar Term Loans in the inverse order of maturity.
(j) On the Business Day following the date of receipt by Workflow
and/or any of its Subsidiaries of the proceeds of any state or

financial statements (balance sheet, income statement, statement
of cash flows), covenant calculations, two year projections and
an action plan as to treatment of the remaining earn out

Special Committee shall update the Agent and the Lenders and/or
their consultants telephonically on a bi-weekly basis with

the other Credit Documents unless such Events of Default are waived in writing
by the Required Lenders, or the Credit Agreement is amended to provide

them from and after the Waiver Termination Date as a result of the Specified

in this letter agreement shall become effective upon the satisfaction of the
following conditions:
(a) The Borrowers and the Guarantors shall have executed and delivered
to the Agent account control agreements with Bank of America and Fleet
National Bank in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, with respect
to each of the bank accounts maintained by the Borrowers and the
Guarantors, and such agreements shall be in full force and effect.

promissory notes, shall have been delivered to the Agent as collateral
security for the Obligations pursuant to the terms of the applicable
Security Documents.
(d) The Borrowers shall have paid all reasonable expenses of the
Agent, the Agent's counsel and their respective professional advisors for

duly executed by each of the Borrowers, the Agent and the Required Lenders.
(f) The Agent shall have received evidence of appropriate corporate or

5. Waiver Fee. The Borrowers shall pay a waiver fee (the "Waiver Fee") to

against any of the Lenders or the Agent (or any of their directors, officers,
employees, agents or affiliates); (ii) the Borrowers and the Guarantors have no
offset right, counterclaim or defense of any kind against any of the
Obligations, indebtedness or liabilities to the Lenders and the Agent; and (iii)
each of the Lenders and the Agent has heretofore performed and satisfied in a
timely manner all of its obligations to the Borrowers, and the Guarantors, if

eliminate any possibility that any past conditions, acts, omissions, events,
circumstances or matters would impair or otherwise adversely affect any of their
rights, interests, contracts, collateral security or remedies. Therefore, the
Borrowers and the Guarantors unconditionally release, waive and forever
discharge (a) any and all liabilities, obligations, duties, promises or
indebtedness of any kind of any of the Lenders or the Agent to the Borrowers and
the Guarantors, except the obligations to be performed by the Lenders or the
Agent hereafter as expressly stated in this Agreement and the other Credit
Documents, and (b) all claims, offsets, causes of action, suits or defenses of
any kind whatsoever (if any), whether known or unknown, which the Borrowers
and/or Guarantors might otherwise have against any of the Lenders or the Agent
or any of their directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates for their
respective
-6-
actions or omissions occurring prior to the date hereof, in either case (a) or
(b) above, on account of any condition, act, omission, event, contract,
liability, obligation, indebtedness, claim, cause of action, defense,
circumstance or matter of any kind whatsoever which existed, arose or occurred
at any time prior to the date hereof.
7. Miscellaneous. No waiver herein granted or agreement herein made shall
extend beyond the Limited Waiver Period, nor shall anything contained herein be
deemed to imply any willingness of the Agent or the Lenders to agree to, or
otherwise prejudice any rights of the Agent or the Lenders with respect to, any
similar waivers, amendments or agreements that may be requested for any future
period. This agreement shall constitute a "Credit Document". Except as
specifically waived or amended hereby, each of the terms and conditions of the
Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents are hereby ratified and
confirmed and shall remain in full force and effect. Nothing contained herein
shall in any way prejudice, impair or effect any rights or remedies of the
Lenders or the Agent under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents.
This letter agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which
counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same
instrument.
THIS LETTER AGREEMENT SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
(WITHOUT REFERENCE TO CONFLICTS OF LAW).
Please acknowledge your acceptance of the foregoing by executing and
returning this letter agreement to the attention of Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Vice
