  MONTREAL, CANADA, Oct 08 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Worldcolor (TSX: WC)(TSX: WC.U) has signed a multi-year agreement to
print 21 magazines, journals and newsletters for ABA Publishing, the
publishing arm of the American Bar Association. The 21 titles represent
new work to Worldcolor, which has printed the ABA's flagship magazine
title - ABA Journal - for several years.

    Some of the new titles in the agreement are Litigation, Business Law
Today, Probate and Property, Student Lawyer and Construction Lawyer.

    "We have printed ABA Journal with great pride and it is very gratifying
when a valued customer expands our service relationship by awarding us
additional titles," said Kevin J. Clarke, President of Worldcolor's
Publishing Services Group. "We're also pleased to note that this new work
reflects in part continuing investments we have made and are making in
digital print and related digital asset management, as well as in
innovative co-mail solutions that are driving more value to our
publication customers."

    John Rhead, Print Administration Director for ABA Publishing, said
Worldcolor's specialty publication capabilities and commitment to
innovation in print, digital and distribution technologies provided a
compelling case for change: "We were very impressed with Worldcolor's
focused solutions for our specialized publications. We have no doubt that
the service success Worldcolor has demonstrated on ABA Journal will be
mirrored in the production of these 21 additional titles."

    Forward-looking statements

    To the extent any statements made in this press release contain
information that is not historical, these statements are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, and are forward-looking information within the meaning of the
"safe harbor" provisions of applicable Canadian securities legislation
(collectively "forward-looking statements"). These forward-looking
statements relate to, among other things, prospects of the Company's (the
"Company") industry and its objectives, goals, strategies, beliefs,
intentions, plans, estimates, projections and outlook, and can generally
be identified by the use of words such as "may," "will," "expect,"
"intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "plan," "foresee," "believe" or
"continue" or the negatives of these terms, variations on them and other
similar expressions. In addition, any statements that refer to
expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or
circumstances are forward-looking statements. The Company has based these
forward-looking statements on its current expectations about future
events. Forward-looking statements do not take into account the effect of
transactions or other items announced or occurring after the statements
are made. For example, they do not include the effect of dispositions,
acquisitions, other business transactions, asset write-downs or other
charges announced or occurring after the forward-looking statements are
made.

    Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such
forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that
these expectations will prove to have been correct, and forward-looking
statements inherently involve risks and uncertainties, and undue reliance
should not be placed on such statements. Certain material factors or
assumptions are applied in making forward-looking statements, and actual
results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such
forward-looking statements.

    Important factors and assumptions as well as the Company's ability to
anticipate and manage the risks associated therewith that could cause
actual results to differ materially from these expectations are detailed
from time to time in the Company's filings with the U. S. Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the securities regulatory authorities in
Canada, available at www.sec.gov and www.sedar.com (copies of which are
available on www.worldcolor.com). The Company cautions that any such list
of important factors that could affect future results is not exhaustive.
Investors and others should carefully consider the factors detailed from
time to time in the Company's filings with the SEC and the securities
regulatory authorities in Canada and other uncertainties and potential
events when relying on its forward-looking statements to make decisions
with respect to the Company.

    Unless mentioned otherwise, the forward-looking statements in this press
release reflect the Company's expectations as of October 8, 2009, being
the date at which they have been approved, and are subject to change
after this date. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or
intention to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as
a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required
by applicable securities laws.
