BRADY CORPORATION ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF TENDER OFFER FOR IMTEC INC.

MILWAUKEE (March 22, 2000)--Brady Corporation (NYSE: BRC) announced today that
its indirect, wholly owned subsidiary, IMTC Acquisition Corp., has accepted for
payment all shares of Imtec Inc. (NASDAQSC: IMTC) common stock that were
tendered pursuant to IMTC's tender offer for all outstanding shares of common
stock of Imtec Inc. at $12.00 cash per share. The tender offer expired as
scheduled at 5:00 p.m., eastern time on March 21, 2000.

         Based upon a preliminary count from the depositary, 1,565,403 shares of
Imtec Inc. common stock (including 1,708 by notice of guaranteed delivery) were
tendered and not withdrawn, which constitutes approximately 94.4% of the
outstanding shares of Imtec common stock. Payment for the tendered shares will
be made promptly by the depositary. Subject to the terms of the merger agreement
between Brady Corporation, IMTC Acquisition Corp. and Imtec Inc., shares of
common stock not tendered in the offer will be converted into the right to
receive $12.00 cash per share upon completion of the merger between IMTC
Acquisition Corp. and Imtec Inc. It is anticipated that the registration of
Imtec Inc. common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 will be
terminated and the merger will be completed as soon as practicable.

         Brady expects the acquisition of Imtec to strengthen its position in

labels and labeling systems used in electronics and industrial markets primarily
in North America. Its products include preprinted labels, printer laminators,
printer applicators and labeling supplies. Headquartered in Bellows Falls, Vt.,
Imtec reported sales of about $14 million and net income of approximately $0.9
million in fiscal 1999. It employs about 95 people throughout the United States.

         Brady Corporation is an international manufacturer and marketer of
