Kinko's Announces Purchase of Shares in Tender Offer for ImageX

Press release from the issuing company

DALLAS, April 10 -- Kinko's, Inc., today announced the successful completion of its tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of common stock of ImageX, at a price of $.512 per share. The offer expired at 12:00 midnight New York City time on Wednesday, April 9, 2003. Based on information provided by Mellon Investor Services LLC, the depositary for the offer, approximately 27,042,075 shares of ImageX's common stock were tendered (including approximately 431,005 shares tendered pursuant to procedures for guaranteed delivery) in the initial offering period. These shares represent approximately 86.6 percent of the outstanding shares of ImageX. Kinko's, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Kinko's Washington, Inc., has accepted for payment all shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the offer. Kinko's has elected to provide a subsequent offering period for the ImageX tender offer. The subsequent offering period began at 12:01 a.m., New York City time, Thursday, April 10, 2003, and expires at midnight, New York City time, on Friday, April 18, 2003. During the subsequent offering period, shares of ImageX will be accepted and promptly paid for as they are tendered. The same price paid during the initial offering, $.512 per share, is extended through the subsequent offering period. Shares that are tendered during the subsequent offering period may not be withdrawn. To tender shares during the subsequent offering period, ImageX stockholders should use the letter of transmittal that was previously sent to ImageX stockholders. Additional copies of the letter of transmittal and related documents may be obtained from Mellon Investor Services LLC, the depositary and information agent for the offer, at (888) 867-6003. Any remaining publicly held shares after the subsequent offering period will be acquired for $.512 per share in a subsequent second-step merger transaction upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the merger under the merger agreement, including the approval of the merger agreement by holders of shares if required by applicable law. As a result of the purchase of shares by Kinko's in the tender offer, Kinko's has sufficient voting power to approve the merger without the vote of any other holder of shares. In addition, if Kinko's acquires 90 percent or more of the outstanding shares pursuant to the tender offer (including during the subsequent offering period), then the merger would be completed without a vote of shareholders, in accordance with applicable law.
