Workflow and DBF. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have
the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.
Certain Events of Default (collectively, the "Specified Defaults") have

2003 in violation of Section 8.05 of the Credit Agreement, (ii) Workflow's
failure as of April 30, 2003 to comply with the Senior Leverage Ratio,
Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio, Minimum Cumulative Consolidated EBITDA,
and Fixed Charge Ratio covenants, set forth in Sections 8.09, 8.10, 8.14 and
8.15 of the Credit Agreement, (iii) the breach of the provisions of the Credit
Agreement prior to the execution of this Amendment arising as a result of the
amount of Restructuring Costs incurred by Workflow exceeding the maximum amounts
set forth in the definition of Restructuring Costs in Section 10 of the Credit
Agreement, and (iv) Workflow's failure from time to time prior to the execution
of this Amendment to provide the rolling cash flow forecasts required under
Section 7.01(i) of the Credit Agreement on a timely basis. The Borrower has
requested that the Agent and the Lenders waive each of the Specified Defaults
and 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. Accordingly, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
