MOORE NORTH AMERICA, INC. SAVINGS PLAN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULE DECEMBER 31, 2000 AND 1999 -2- PricewaterhouseCoopers PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP 200 East Randolph Drive Chicago, IL 60601 Telephone (312)540-1500 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To the Participants and Administrator of the Moore North America, Inc. Savings Plan In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Moore North America, Inc. Savings Plan (the "Plan") at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of Line 4i, Schedule of Assets Held for Investment Purposes, is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN The following brief description of the Moore North America, Inc. Savings Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. For more complete information, participants should refer to the text of the Plan document. GENERAL The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees of Moore North America, Inc. (the "Company") and is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). The Plan is administered by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company's parent, Moore Corporation Limited. The assets of the Plan are maintained by The Frank Russell Trust Company (the "Trustee"). PARTICIPATION In order to become a Plan member ("participant"), an employee must have attained age 21 and have completed at least 90 days of service, as defined by the Plan document. Effective December 1, 2000, the Plan was amended to eliminate the 90 day service requirement. CONTRIBUTIONS AND BENEFITS Participants of the Plan are entitled to make tax deferred contributions to the Plan equal to a full percentage between 1% and 15% of the participant's annual compensation, which shall not exceed $160,000, adjusted for changes in the cost of living. The Company makes basic employer matching contributions in an amount equal to 25% of a participant's tax deferred contribution up to a maximum of 5% of the participant's annual compensation. Additionally, a supplemental employer matching contribution will be determined based on the Company achieving certain financial targets determined by the Board of Directors of the Company's parent. These supplemental employer matching contributions will range between 0% and 50% of a participant's tax deferred contribution limited to a maximum of 5% of the participant's annual compensation. Effective October 25, 1999, participants of the Plan can change investment direction, transfer fund balances, and/or change contributions on a daily basis. PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS Each participant account is adjusted each business day of the year to reflect its share of income, contributions, withdrawals, distributions, and expenses payable from the trust fund, and any increase or decrease in the value of the trust fund assets since the preceding business day. VESTING Participants are immediately vested in the value of their tax deferred contribution accounts and the earnings thereon. Vesting in employer matching contributions is based on elective months of participation. A participant is 100% vested after 48 elective months. An elective month is any month in which a participant makes a tax deferred contribution to the Plan. Full vesting occurs in all employer contributions upon completion of five years of eligible service. Participants with five or more years of eligible service are immediately vested in all contributions of the Plan regardless of months of participation. -6- MOORE NORTH AMERICA, INC. SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FORFEITURES Any portion of a terminated participant's account in which the participant does not have a vested interest at the time of the withdrawal of their vested balance is forfeited. All such forfeitures are applied to reduce future employer contributions. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, forfeitures amounted to $212,666 and $114,473, respectively. BENEFIT PAYMENTS AND WITHDRAWALS The value of a participant's account may be distributed on termination of employment or, under certain circumstances, on the participant's subsequent retirement, disability, death or attainment of age 59 1/2. Payment will be made in a lump-sum amount as soon as practical after the valuation date. The payment will be in cash and, for those participants with greater than 50 shares of Moore Corporation Limited common stock allocated to their account, the participant may elect to receive whole shares rather than cash. Withdrawals during employment are permitted no more than once in any twelve month period and are available through three options. Option I permits participants to withdraw part of the vested portion of their after tax account, rollover account and/or employer matching contribution account. Option II, available only to participants who have attained age 59 1/2, permits withdrawal of the full amount payable under Option I and the value of their tax deferred contributions account. Option III is used in the event of hardship and permits the withdrawal of the full amount payable under Option-I, the remaining vested balance in the participant's employer matching contributions account, plus the value of their tax deferred contributions account excluding earnings on such account after December 31, 1988. With respect to Option III, the plan administrator determines whether the withdrawal request meets the hardship definition of the Internal Revenue Code and limits the amount of the withdrawal to that required to meet the immediate financial need created by the hardship. Participants may also take out loans not to exceed the lesser of 50% of the vested value of the participant's accounts, or $50,000, reduced by the highest outstanding balance of all other loans from the Plan during the one year period ending on the day before the date on which the said loan was made. The loan shall be for a term of no more than five years. INVESTMENT OPTIONS During 2000, employee contributions, rollover contributions and employer basic matching contributions made to the Plan were invested as directed by the Plan participants in any or all of nine investment alternatives. As of December 31, 2000, investment options were as follows: the Interest Income Fund, the Large Cap Stock Fund, the Diversified Fund, the Balanced Fund, the Global Diversified Fund, the Small Cap Stock Fund, the Fixed Income Fund, and the International Stock Fund. The ninth fund, the Stock Fund, invests solely in Moore Corporation Limited common stock and also is the sole investment vehicle for the employer supplemental matching contribution. The amounts participants can invest in the Stock Fund are limited to 50% of the participant's total account balance. -7- MOORE NORTH AMERICA, INC. SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Trustee and investment management fees, recordkeeper fees and other administrative expenses of the Plan are borne by the Plan to the extent allowed by ERISA, with the remainder being paid by the Company. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain 1999 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2000 presentation. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The accounts of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting. INVESTMENTS With the exception of guaranteed investment contracts, all investments are stated at fair market value as determined by the Trustee based upon quoted market prices. Guaranteed investment contracts are valued at contract value as defined therein. Contract value approximates fair value. Participant notes receivable are valued at cost which approximates fair value. The Plan presents in the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its investments which consists of the realized gains or losses and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the investments. Interest and dividend income is recorded as earned on an accrual basis. PLAN DISTRIBUTIONS Benefits are recorded when paid. The Trustee uses a distribution account to make all benefit payments. Amounts are transferred from the investment funds to this account as directed by the plan administrator. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions and deductions during the reporting period, such as those regarding fair value. Actual results could differ from those estimates. -8- MOORE NORTH AMERICA, INC. SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of stocks, bonds, fixed income securities, and other investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits. 3. NONPARTICIPANT-DIRECTED INVESTMENT The Stock Fund includes both participant-directed and nonparticipant-directed investments. The balances of the nonparticipant-directed investment at December 31 are as follows: 2000 1999 Net assets of nonparticipant-directed investments: Investments at fair value $3,468,630 $1,760,212 Employer contribution receivable 874,667 3,764,980 ---------- ---------- $4,343,297 $5,525,192 ========== ========== -9- MOORE NORTH AMERICA, INC.

GUARANTEED INVESTMENT CONTRACTS The Plan has entered into several benefit-responsive guaranteed investment contracts with various insurance companies. The insurance companies maintain the contributions in general accounts, with the exception of the Aetna Life Insurance Company contract which maintains contributions in a pooled separate account. The guaranteed investment contracts are included in the financial statements at contract value as reported to the Plan by the Trustee. Contract value represents contributions made under the contract, plus earnings, less participant withdrawals and administrative expenses. Participants may ordinarily direct the withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of their investment at contract value. -10- MOORE NORTH AMERICA, INC.

CHANGE IN PLAN CUSTODIAN The custodian appointed by the Trustee changed effective October 1, 2000 from Deutsche Bank to State Street Corporation. All assets of the Plan were properly transferred to State Street Corporation. 7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Included in Plan assets at December 31, 2000 and 1999 are 3,054,947 and 635,594 shares, respectively, of common stock of Moore Corporation Limited, the parent of the Company. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, the stock had an original cost of $15,586,977 and $8,262,528, respectively, and a market value of $9,652,988 and $3,867,982, respectively. Certain Plan investments are shares of the Commingled Employee Benefit Funds managed by the Trustee and therefore, qualify as party-in-interest transactions. Fees paid by the Plan for the trustee and investment management services amounted to $2,148,388 and $2,083,345 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. These transactions are allowable party-in-interest transactions under ERISA and the regulations promulgated thereunder. 8. PLAN TERMINATION Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts. -12- MOORE NORTH AMERICA, INC. SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. TAX STATUS The Internal Revenue Service has issued a favorable determination letter dated April 27, 1995 for the Plan as amended through December 12, 1994 and informed the Company that the Plan is in accordance with applicable Sections of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). The Plan has subsequently been amended and management has requested an update to this determination letter. The plan administrator and the Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan is currently designed and operated in compliance with all applicable requirements of the Code and therefore, believe that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is non-exempt. Thus, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan's financial statements. 10. RECONCILIATION OF NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS TO FORM 5500 For financial reporting purposes, the Plan does not record an obligation for accumulated benefits for individuals who have withdrawn from participation in the Plan. Accumulated benefits payable for individuals who have withdrawn from participation in the Plan as reported in Form 5500 aggregated $1,216,590 and $838,437 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. 11.
