Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

On June 22, 2005, Cadmus Communications Corporation issued a press release announcing a comprehensive equipment upgrade plan to its Publisher Services print platform and Specialty Packaging capabilities. The plan will permit the Company to continue to grow its position in its target publishing markets, to sustain the impressive growth generated in its Specialty Packaging business unit, to retire older and less efficient press equipment, and to more aggressively rationalize capacity across its manufacturing platform.

In connection with this equipment upgrade plan, the Company will be expanding and renovating several of its facilities to accommodate new equipment, to permit improved work flows, and to facilitate the rationalization of similar work currently performed at multiple sites. The Company has ordered all of the equipment in connection with this plan and will soon be commencing building renovations and site preparation. Some of the equipment is expected to arrive in the Fall with the balance arriving and expected to be in service in the late Spring.

All changes, equipment retirements, and capacity rationalization are expected to be complete by the first quarter of fiscal 2007. As previously disclosed, non-cash charges associated with asset impairment were $4.9 million on a pre-tax basis and $3.1 million after tax and were recorded in fiscal 2005. Additional restructuring costs associated with these activities, which will include any costs incurred in connection with capacity rationalization among plants and reductions in personnel, will be incurred in the future and are not determinable at this time.
