Rex, located in Jacksonville, FL, is recognized for its outstanding quality, craftsmanship and high levels of customer service.

Rex’s highly skilled workforce of 170 employees has won numerous awards for quality over the years for their work in servicing the pharmaceutical, healthcare, cosmetics, personal care, food & beverage and apparel markets.

Mr. Burton stated:

“The addition of Rex will strengthen our position in the specialty packaging marketplace. Rex’s reputation as an outstanding manufacturer of high-quality packaging will enhance our existing global packaging network and will provide for sizable synergy opportunities as we integrate our operations. I look forward to working with Chipper and his team as we work toward a swift completion of this transaction.”

Y.E. “Chipper” Hall, President of Rex stated:

“As an innovative and lean enterprise in the folding carton industry, the combination of Rex with Cenveo and Cadmus Whitehall is a natural progression for our people and our customers. Cenveo and Rex share many common goals and workflows, which will offer our customers an unmatched value to support the growth of their businesses in the future, both domestically and globally.  We look forward to working with the Cenveo and Cadmus Whitehall team to provide these increased benefits to our customers and our people.”

The Company also announced that effective December 31st, Robert Kittel will be stepping down as a Director of the Company due to increasing demands on his time and the expanded role he has assumed at Goodwood, Inc.

Mr. Burton concluded:

“I am extremely pleased to announce the appointment of Jerry Armstrong as a Director of the Company. I have known him since 1991 and couldn’t think of a better fit. He brings with him great experience in the printing sector with close to 25 years of knowledge and hands-on experience, including working with me at World Color during the turnaround efforts at that company. Jerry will bring an important industry perspective to the Board, and I want to personally welcome him to the team.

“I am sad to also announce that Rob Kittel will be stepping down as Director at year end. Rob played a pivotal role in helping our team assume leadership and control of Cenveo as well as in bringing strong financial acumen to the Board.  Rob informed me that he wanted to spend 100%

of his time focusing on his full time job at Goodwood Inc., which has grown substantially since our arrival at Cenveo, and I support his decision. On behalf of the entire Board, I want to thank Rob for his hard work, and look forward to continuing to work with him and the Goodwood team as they remain a large shareholder.”
