“Effective Date”) by and between Jostens, Inc. (the “Company”), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Visant Corporation (“Visant”) and Timothy M. Larson (the
“Executive”).

WHEREAS, as of the Effective Date, the Company desires to employ Executive and
to enter into an agreement embodying the terms of such employment and Executive
desires to accept such employment and enter into such an agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein and
for other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:

1. Term of Employment. Subject to the provisions of Section 7 of this Agreement,
Executive shall be employed by the Company for a period commencing on the
Effective Date and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date (the
“Initial Term”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement. Following the Initial Term, the term of Executive’s employment
hereunder shall automatically be renewed on the terms and conditions hereunder
for additional one-year periods commencing on each anniversary of the last day
of the Initial Term (the Initial Term and any annual extensions of the term of
this Agreement, subject to the provisions of Section 7 hereof, together, the
“Employment Term”), unless either party gives written notice of non-renewal at
least sixty (60) days prior to such anniversary. Any such written notice by the
Company of non-renewal shall be deemed to constitute a termination by the
Company without Cause under Section 7(c) of this Agreement.

2. Position.

a. During the Employment Term, Executive shall serve as the President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company. In such position, Executive shall have such
duties and authority as determined by the Chief Executive Officer of Visant, or
such other party as he or the Board of Directors of Visant (the “Board”) shall
designate from time to time and commensurate with the position of president of a
company of similar size, structure and nature to that of the Company. During the
Employment Term, the Executive shall report to the Chief Executive Officer of
Visant or such other party as he or the Board shall designate from time to time.

b. During the Employment Term, Executive will devote Executive’s full business
time and reasonable best efforts to the performance of Executive’s duties
hereunder and will not engage in any other business, profession or occupation
for compensation or otherwise which would conflict or interfere in any material
respect with the rendition of such services either directly or indirectly,
without the prior written consent of the Board; provided that nothing herein
shall preclude Executive, subject to the prior approval of the Board, from
accepting appointment to or continue to serve on any board of directors or
trustees of any business corporation or any charitable organization; provided,
further, in each case in the aggregate, that such activities do not conflict or
interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder or conflict with
Section 8.

year of the Company (each, a “Fiscal Year”), with the balance of such
performance targets to be based on other metrics established by the Board from

thereunder. In addition to the foregoing, Executive shall continue to be
eligible for the extraordinary bonuses as set forth in, and subject to the terms

shall be entitled to participate in the Company’s welfare benefit plans, fringe
benefit plans and qualified and nonqualified retirement plans (the “Company

the event that the Company terminates Executive’s employment in accordance with
the foregoing sentence the Company may, in its sole discretion, prohibit
Executive from entering the premises of the Company for all or any portion of
the period after giving him notice of such termination. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 7 shall
exclusively govern Executive’s rights upon termination of employment with the

continue to govern Executive’s equity holdings following any termination in
accordance therewith.

a. By the Company For Cause or By Executive Without Good Reason.

(i) The Employment Term and Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated
by the Company for Cause (as defined below) and shall terminate automatically

subsidiaries as provided hereunder which continues beyond ten (10) days after a
written demand for substantial performance is delivered to Executive by the
Company (the “Cure Period”); (B) the willful or intentional engaging by
Executive in conduct that causes material and demonstrable injury, monetarily or
otherwise, to the Company, the Investors or their respective Affiliates (each as

(C) the commission by Executive of a crime constituting (x) a felony under the

Documents by Executive, including, without limitation, engaging in any action in
breach of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 of this Agreement or
the Equity Documents, that continues beyond the Cure Period (to the extent that,
in the Board’s reasonable judgment, such breach can be cured). In addition,
“Good Reason” shall mean (i) a reduction in the Executive’s base salary or
annual incentive compensation opportunity (other than a general reduction in
base salary or annual incentive compensation opportunity that affects all
members of senior management in substantially the same proportions, provided
that the Executive’s base salary is not reduced by more than 10%); (ii) a
substantial reduction in the Executive’s duties and responsibilities, an adverse

to Executive of duties or responsibilities substantially inconsistent with such
titles; or (iii) a transfer of the Executive’s primary workplace by more than
fifty miles outside of Bloomington, Minnesota.

(iii) If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, or if
Executive resigns other than for Good Reason or as a result of Executive’s death
or Disability, Executive shall be entitled to receive:

as of the Date of Termination (as such term is defined in Section 7(d) below),
paid within ten (10) business days after the Date of Termination;

(B) a lump-sum payment of any Annual Bonus that is earned by Executive in

(C) a lump-sum payment equal to all vacation pay that is accrued in respect of
Executive’s unused vacation days as of the Date of Termination, paid within ten

to the extent required by such policy);

(E) such Employee Benefits, if any, as to which Executive may be entitled under
the applicable Company Plans upon termination of employment hereunder, and any
rights under the Letter Agreement, to the extent provided therein (the payments

collectively, as the “Accrued Rights).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Following such termination of Executive’s employment by the Company for Cause or
resignation by Executive other than for Good Reason or as a result of
Executive’s death or Disability, except as set forth in this Section 7(a)(iii),
Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits
under this Agreement.

b. Disability or Death.

(i) Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon Executive’s death and
may be terminated by the Company if Executive becomes physically or mentally
incapacitated and is therefore unable for a period of six (6) consecutive months
or for an aggregate of nine (9) months in any eighteen (18) consecutive month
period to perform Executive’s duties (such incapacity is hereinafter referred to
as “Disability”). Any question as to the existence of the Disability of
Executive as to which Executive and the Company cannot agree shall be determined
in writing by a qualified independent physician mutually acceptable to Executive
(or to the Executive’s representative, if Executive is not capable of acting on
own his behalf) and the Company. If Executive (or to the Executive’s
representative, if Executive is not capable of acting on his own behalf) and the
Company cannot agree as to a qualified independent physician, each shall appoint
such a physician and those two physicians shall select a third who shall make
such determination in writing. The determination of Disability hereunder shall
be made in a writing that is promptly provided to the Company and Executive (or
his representative, if Executive is not capable of acting on his own behalf)
shall be final and conclusive for all purposes of the Agreement.

(ii) Upon termination of Executive’s employment hereunder for either Disability
or death, Executive or Executive’s estate (as the case may be) shall be entitled
to receive:

(A) the Accrued Rights; and

(B) a lump-sum payment of the pro rata portion (based upon the number of days in
the applicable Fiscal Year during which Executive was employed with the Company
through the Date of Termination, relative to the number of days in the
applicable Fiscal Year) of the Annual Bonus, if any, that Executive would have
been entitled to receive pursuant to the Incentive Plan had Executive remained
employed through the date that bonuses are paid to other executives under the
Incentive Plan in respect of the Fiscal Year in which the Date of Termination
occurs, paid when such bonuses are otherwise paid to active participants under
the Incentive Plan (the “Pro Rata Bonus”).

Following Executive’s termination of employment due to Executive’s death or
Disability, except as set forth in this Section 7(b)(ii), Executive shall have
no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this
Agreement.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

c. By the Company Without Cause; By Executive for Good Reason.

(i) Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company without
Cause or by Executive for Good Reason.

(ii) If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause
(including by virtue of the Company’s failure to renew the Employment Term at
any time but excluding by reason of his death or Disability) or by Executive for
Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive:

(A) the Accrued Rights and Pro Rata Bonus;

(B) subject to Executive’s continued compliance with the provisions of Section 8
and subject to Executive’s execution (without revocation) of a release of claims
(the form of which shall be that customarily provided by the Company to
terminating employees), an amount equal to the sum of (x) twenty-four months’
Base Salary at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination
and (y) the product of (I) 2.0 and (II) the Target Bonus for the year in which
the Date of Termination occurs, payable in equal monthly installments over the
twenty-four (24) month period commencing on such Date of Termination (the
“Severance Period”); and

(C) continuation of health and welfare benefits (pursuant to the same benefit
plans as in effect for active employees of the Company) until the earlier to
occur of (x) twenty-four months from the Date of Termination and (y) the date on
which Executive commences to be eligible for comparable coverage from any
subsequent employer.

Following Executive’s termination of employment by the Company without Cause
(including by virtue of the Company’s failure to renew the Employment Term at
any time) or by Executive for Good Reason, except as set forth in this
Section 7(c)(ii), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or
any other benefits under this Agreement or any other severance plan or
arrangement of Visant or any of its subsidiaries.

d. Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of employment by the Company
or by Executive (other than due to Executive’s death) shall be communicated by
written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with
Section 11(h)) hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination”
shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in
this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts
and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of employment under
the provision so indicated. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Date of
Termination” shall mean the date the Notice of Termination is given to the
respective party; provided, however, that (i) with respect to a termination for
Cause by the Company, the Date of Termination shall not occur prior to the
expiration of any applicable Cure Period and (ii) upon a nonrenewal of the
Employment Term by either party, the date the Employment Term expires, and not
the date of the notice itself, shall constitute the applicable Date of
Termination.

 

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

e. Board/Committee Resignation. Upon termination of Executive’s employment for
any reason, Executive agrees to resign, as of the date of such termination and
to the extent applicable, from the Board (and any committees thereof) and the
board of directors (and any committees thereof) of any of the Company’s
Affiliates (as defined in the Plan).

8. Confidential Information; Covenant Not to Compete; Non-Solicit.

a. Executive acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the
business of Visant and its Affiliates and accordingly agrees as follows:

(i) In consideration of the Company entering into this Agreement with the
Executive and without limitation of any prior agreement made with respect to
confidentiality or other restrictive covenants made by Executive in the favor of
VHC or any of its Affiliates prior to the date hereof, the Executive hereby
agrees effective as of the date of the Executive’s commencement of employment
with the Company or its subsidiaries, without the Company’s prior written
consent, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, (x) at any time during
or after the Executive’s employment with the Company or its subsidiaries,
disclose any Confidential Information (as such term is defined in that certain
Management Stockholder’s Agreement dated March 17, 2005 previously entered by
Executive) pertaining to the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
except when required to perform his or her duties to the Company or one of its
subsidiaries, by law or judicial process; or (y) at any time during the
Executive’s employment with the Company or its subsidiaries and for a period of
two years thereafter, directly or indirectly (A) act as a proprietor, investor,
director, officer, employee, substantial stockholder, consultant, or partner in
any business that directly or indirectly competes, at the relevant determination
date, with the business of the Company in, (1) school photography services or
school-related clothing, affinity products and services, including yearbooks,
(2) memory books, (3) commercial printing and binding, (4) printing services to
companies engaged in direct marketing, (5) fragrance, cosmetics and
toiletries-related sampling or (6) single use packaging for fragrances,
cosmetics and toiletries, in North America in the case of clauses (1) through
(4) and in North America and Europe in the case of clauses (5) and (6),
(B) solicit customers or clients of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to
terminate their relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or
otherwise solicit such customers or clients to compete with any business of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or (C) solicit or offer employment to any
person who has been employed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries at any
time during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the termination of the
Executive’s employment. If the Executive is bound by any other agreement with
the Company regarding the use or disclosure of Confidential Information, the
provisions of this Agreement shall be read in such a way as to further restrict
and not to permit any more extensive use or disclosure of Confidential
Information.

b. Notwithstanding clause (a) above, if at any time a court holds that the
restrictions stated in such clause (a) are unreasonable or otherwise
unenforceable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that
the maximum period, scope or geographic area determined to be reasonable under
such circumstances by such court will be substituted for the stated period,
scope or area. In the event that the provisions of this Section 8, or any
portion thereof, should ever be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction
in proceedings to which Executive, Visant or any of its subsidiaries is a proper
party to exceed the

 

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

time or geographic or other limitations permitted by applicable law, then such
provisions shall be deemed reformed to the maximum time or geographic or other
limitations permitted by applicable law, as determined by such court in such
action, the parties hereby acknowledging their desire that in such event such
action be taken.

Because the Executive’s services are unique and because the Executive has had
access to Confidential Information, the parties hereto agree that money damages
will be an inadequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement. In the event of a
breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Company or its successors or
assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor,
apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or
injunctive relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the
provisions hereof (without the posting of a bond or other security).

9. Specific Performance. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s
remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of
Section 8 would be inadequate and the Company would suffer irreparable damages
as a result of such breach or threatened breach. In recognition of this fact,
Executive agrees that, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, in
addition to any remedies at law, the Company, without posting any bond, shall be
entitled to cease making any payments or providing any benefit otherwise
required by this Agreement and obtain equitable relief in the form of specific
performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or
any other equitable remedy which may then be available.

10. Arbitration. Except as provided in Section 9, any other dispute arising out
of or asserting breach of this Agreement, or any statutory or common law claim
by Executive relating to his employment under this Agreement or the termination
thereof (including any tort or discrimination claim), shall be exclusively
resolved by binding statutory arbitration in accordance with the Employment
Dispute Resolution Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Such
arbitration process shall take place in New York, New York. A court of competent
jurisdiction may enter judgment upon the arbitrator’s award. Each party shall
pay the costs and expenses of arbitration (including fees and disbursements of
counsel) incurred by such party in connection with any dispute arising out of or
asserting breach of this Agreement.

11. Miscellaneous.

a. Reserved.

b. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts
of laws principles thereof.

c. Entire Agreement/Amendments. This Agreement contains the entire understanding
of the parties with respect to the employment of Executive by the Company. There
are no restrictions, agreements, promises, warranties, covenants or undertakings
between the parties with respect to the subject matter herein other than those
expressly set forth herein. This Agreement may not be altered, modified, or
amended except by written instrument signed by the parties hereto; provided,
however, that the parties hereto acknowledge that an executive

 

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

officer of VHC shall have the right, in his or her sole discretion, to reduce
the scope of any covenant set forth in this Agreement or any portion thereof,
effective as to Executive immediately upon receipt by Executive of written
notice thereof from VHC.

d. No Waiver. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement, whether by
conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed or be
construed as a further, continuing or subsequent waiver of any such provision or
as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement. No failure to exercise and
no delay in exercising any right, remedy or power hereunder will preclude any
other or further exercise of any other right, remedy or power provided herein or
by law or in equity.

e. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this
Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this
Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

f. Assignment. This Agreement, and all of Executive’s rights and duties
hereunder, shall not be assignable or delegable by Executive; provided, however,
that if Executive shall die, all amounts then payable to Executive hereunder
shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to Executive’s
devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there be no such devisee, legatee or
designee, to Executive’s estate. Any purported assignment or delegation by
Executive in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void ab initio and of
no force and effect. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company to a person
or entity which is an Affiliate, and shall be assigned to any successor in
interest to substantially all of the business operations of the Company. Upon
such assignment, the rights and obligations of the Company hereunder shall
become the rights and obligations of such Affiliate or successor person or
entity. Further, the Company will require any successor (whether, direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume
expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession
had taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company and
any successor to its business and/or assets which is required by this
Section 11(f) to assume and agree to perform this Agreement or which otherwise
assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement; provided, however, in the event
that any successor, as described above, agrees to assume this Agreement in
accordance with the preceding sentence, as of the date such successor so assumes
this Agreement, the Company shall cease to be liable for any of the obligations
contained in this Agreement.

g. Set Off; Mitigation. The Company’s obligation to pay Executive the amounts
provided and to make the arrangements provided hereunder shall not be subject to
set-off, counterclaim or recoupment, other than amounts loaned or advanced to
Executive by the Company or its Affiliates or otherwise as provided in
Section 7(c)(ii)(C) hereof. Executive shall not be required to mitigate the
amount of any payment provided for pursuant to this Agreement by seeking other
employment or otherwise and the amount of any payment provided for pursuant to
this Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned as a result of
Executive’s other employment or otherwise.

i. Prior Agreements. Except as set forth in Section 4 with regards to the Letter
Agreement, this Agreement supercedes all prior agreements and understandings
(including verbal agreements) between Executive and the Company and/or its
Affiliates regarding the terms and conditions of Executive’s employment with the
Company and/or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the Equity Documents (as
defined hereafter) shall govern the terms and conditions of Executive’s equity
holdings in the Company and the terms and conditions thereof, and the
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan shall govern the terms and conditions of
Executive’s benefits thereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, “Equity
Documents” shall mean each of the Management Stockholder’s Agreement and the
Sale Participation Agreement previously entered into by Executive, and the LTIP
(and any award letter granted thereunder).

j. Cooperation. Executive shall provide Executive’s reasonable cooperation in
connection with any action or proceeding (or any appeal from any action or
proceeding) which relates to events occurring during Executive’s employment
hereunder, but only to the extent the Company requests such cooperation with
reasonable advance notice to Executive and in respect of such periods of time as
shall not unreasonably interfere with Executive’s ability to perform his duties
with any subsequent employer; provided, however, that the Company shall pay any
reasonable travel, lodging and related expenses that Executive may incur in
connection with providing all such cooperation, to the extent approved by the
Company prior to incurring such expenses.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

k. Withholding Taxes. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under
this Agreement such Federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be
withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

l. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which
shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and
hereto were upon the same instrument.

12. Compliance with IRC Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, (a) if at the time of Executive’s termination of employment with the
Company Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the deferral of the
commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result
of such termination of employment is necessary in order to prevent any
accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, then the Company
will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits
hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or
provided to Executive) until the date that is six months following Executive’s
termination of employment with the Company (or the earliest date as is permitted
under Section 409A of the Code) and (b) if any other payments of money or other
benefits due to Executive hereunder could cause the application of an
accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, such payments or
other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other
benefits compliant under Section 409A of the Code, or otherwise such payment or
other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner,
determined by the Board, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional
tax. The Company shall consult with Executive in good faith regarding the
implementation of the provisions of this Section 12; provided that neither the
Company nor any of its employees or representatives shall have any liability to
Executive with respect to thereto.
