-- Moore Corporation Says Its Suggestion to Meet Rejected by
Wallace Computer Services' Board --
-- Moore Submits Proposals to Remove Present Wallace Board of Directors and
Elect Three Moore Nominees --
-- Moore Seeks to Dismiss Wallace Complaint --
-- Moore Extends Tender Offer --
TORONTO (August 28, 1995) -- In a statement released today, Moore Corporation
Limited (TSE, ME, NYSE: MCL) said, "We are very disappointed to report that the
Board of Directors of Wallace Computer Services rejected outright our suggestion
to meet last week in order to discuss Moore's $56 per share cash offer. By
requesting to meet to discuss the transaction, we had hoped to allow Wallace to
avoid a prolonged proxy contest that would be disruptive to its customers and
employees, and could result in diminishing Wallace's value. It seems that
Wallace's Board is willing to expend corporate assets in an effort to deny
Wallace shareholders an opportunity to accept Moore's offer.
"We had invited Wallace's Board and advisors to meet with us to demonstrate why
they believe our $56 per share offer is "inadequate." As we have said many times
in public and in private, we remain open to the possibility that the Board will
elect to sit down with us in the near future and are ready at any time to
discuss any aspect of our proposed combination. In the meantime, Moore will
proceed with the necessary steps to facilitate its effort to acquire Wallace."
Moore will formally notify Wallace Computer Services (NYSE: WCS) today that, in
addition to seeking to elect its three nominees, Moore intends to introduce
three proposals at Wallace's next annual meeting. Based on information from last
year's proxy statement, Wallace's annual meeting is currently anticipated to be
held on November 8, 1995.
Moore's proposals, if successful, will remove all of the present members of
Wallace's Board of Directors, amend Wallace's bylaws to set the number of
directors at five, and repeal any changes to Wallace's bylaws which may be made
after February 15, 1995 and prior to the annual meeting. In order to be adopted,
the first two proposals must be approved by 80 percent of Wallace's shareholders
and the third must be approved by a simple majority. Moore previously submitted
to Wallace its slate of three nominees to Wallace's Board of Directors.
Moore also announced that it filed a motion in the United States District Court
for the Southern District of New York to dismiss antitrust and securities law
claims filed by Wallace against Moore or, alternatively, to transfer and
consolidate those claims with the lawsuit previously filed by Moore in the
United States District Court for the District of Delaware.
Moore continued, "Since we first announced our intention to commence a tender
offer for Wallace shares, we have secured financing allowing us to waive the
financing condition to our offer and cleared Hart-Scott-Rodino without receiving
a second request from the antitrust division of the U.S. Department of Justice.
The steps we are taking today will move us further along in a process to which
we are committed. The Wallace Board of Directors' failure to disarm their
defenses is the only real obstacle to their shareholders' ability to accept our
offer."
Moore's wholly-owned subsidiary, FRDK, Inc. will extend its tender offer for all
outstanding shares of Wallace common stock, including associated preferred stock
purchase rights, until 5:00 p.m. EST on Tuesday, September 19, 1995. As of
Friday, August 25, 1995, 165,856 shares had been tendered and not withdrawn.

address as it appears on the Company's books to the principal place of business
