We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 30, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 30, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole.

3 Mail-Well Corporation 401(k) Savings Retirement Plan for Union Employees Notes to Financial Statements December 30, 2000 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN The following description of the Mail-Well Corporation 401(k) Savings Retirement Plan for Union Employees (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a complete description of the Plan's provisions. GENERAL The Plan was adopted effective December 1, 2000. The Plan is a salary deferral plan of Mail-Well Corporation (the "Company") for union employees. Full-time salaried employees become eligible the first day of the month following one year of service. Eligible employees, where collectively bargained, become eligible according to the terms of the collective bargaining agreements. CONTRIBUTIONS Each year, participants may contribute up to 20% of pretax annual compensation, as defined in the Plan document and as limited by the Internal Revenue Service. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. The Company contributes 50% of the first 6% of base compensation that a participant contributes to the Plan. Additional amounts may be contributed at the option of the Company's Board of Directors. No discretionary contributions were made to the Plan in 2000. ASSET TRANSFERS FROM OTHER PLANS During 2000, certain other employee benefit plans of the Company were merged with the Plan. These assets were placed into the investment elections offered by the Plan at the employee's election. PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and withdrawals, as applicable, and allocations of Company contributions and Plan earnings, and is charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. VESTING A participant is 100% vested in his or her contributions at all times. Vesting in employer matching contributions occurs 20% for each year of service. Upon reaching five years of service, all employer matching contributions are fully vested. Years of service attributable to predecessor companies prior to such individual being employed by the Company are recognized in full for vesting purposes. All employer matching contributions become fully vested upon retirement, disability or death of the participant. 4 INVESTMENT OPTIONS Upon enrollment in the Plan, participants elect to invest their contributions in any of 11 options included in Putnam Investments: PIM Total Return, Algers Small Cap Fund, Growth Fund, Balanced Fund, Conservative Fund, Putnam International Growth Fund, Investors Fund, The George Putnam Fund of Boston, The Putnam Fund for Growth & Income, S&P 500 Fund, and Putnam Stable Value Fund; in addition, participants may elect to invest their contributions in the Mail-Well Stock Fund. LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS Participants may borrow from the Plan a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested interest in the Plan. Such loans bear an interest at the prime rate (as published in The Wall Street Journal) plus 1% and are collateralized by the participants' nonforfeitable interest in the Plan. Loans must be repaid within 5 years unless they are for the purchase of a principal residence, in which event they may be repaid over a period up to a maximum of 15 years. PAYMENT OF BENEFITS Upon retirement or termination of service, participants may roll their account balance into another qualified retirement savings account, withdraw their vested account balance less applicable taxes in a lump-sum payment, or leave their account balance with the Company until normal retirement age if their account balance is greater than $5,000. The Plan provides for advance distribution for hardship if certain conditions are met. EXPENSES Certain of the Plan's administrative expenses are paid by the Company. All other administrative expenses are paid by the Plan and allocated to participant accounts. Participants pay fees for loans and withdrawals. 5 FORFEITURES Upon termination by a participant, employer matching contributions that have not vested are used to offset administrative expenses. Any forfeitures remaining shall then be used to reduce employer contributions for the Plan year immediately following the Plan year in which the forfeiture occurs. PLAN TERMINATION Although it has not expressed an intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Plan recognizes income, expenses and other changes in net assets available for benefits using the accrual method of accounting. The Plan's investments are recorded in the financial statements at fair value based on published market values. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments during the period is included in net appreciation in fair value of investments. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are determined using the average-cost basis. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 6 3. FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS The Plan has not received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). However, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan is qualified and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. 4. INVESTMENTS During the year ended December 30, 2000, the Plan's investments (including investments purchased, sold and held during the period) depreciated in fair value as determined by quoted market prices as follows: Shares of registered investment companies $(437,340) Common stock (320,388) ------------------ $(757,728) ==================
