CSS Industries, Inc.                                             First Amendment



                   (a) Each of the Company and Paper Magic Group, Inc. (the
         "Grantor") has full legal power and authority to enter into, execute,
         deliver and perform the terms of the Security Documents, all of which
         have been duly authorized by all proper and necessary corporate,
         partnership or other applicable action and do not conflict with its
         organizational documents. Each of the Company and the Grantor has duly
         executed and delivered the Security Documents;

                   (b) the Security Documents constitute the valid and legally
         binding obligations of the Company and the Grantor enforceable in
         accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability
         may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
         reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the
         enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (ii) general principles
         at equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a
         proceeding in equity or at law);

                   (c) no consent, authorization or approval of, filing with,
         notice to, or exemption by, stockholders or holders of any other equity
         interest, any Governmental Authority or any other Person, is required
         to be obtained or made by the Company and the Grantor in order to
         authorize, or is required to be obtained or made by the Grantor in
         connection with, the execution, delivery or performance of, the
         Security Documents, or is required to be obtained or made by the
         Company and the Grantor as a condition to the validity or
         enforceability of the Security Documents; and

                   (d) neither the Company nor the Grantor is in default (1)

         decision of any Governmental Authority; the effect of which default, as
         to each of clause (1) and (2) above, individually or in the aggregate,
         could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The
         execution, delivery or carrying out of the terms of the Security

         require the mandatory repayment of or other acceleration of payment
         under or pursuant to the terms of) any such mortgage, indenture, note,
         contract, instrument, agreement, judgment, order, writ, injunction,
