</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On December&nbsp;3, 2007, CLARCOR Inc., a Delaware corporation (&#147;CLARCOR&#148;), completed its
acquisition of Perry Equipment Corporation, a Texas corporation (&#147;PECO&#148;), pursuant to the

CLARCOR, PECO Acquisition Company, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of CLARCOR
(&#147;Merger Sub&#148;), PECO, and PECO Management LLC, as the Shareholder Representative.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, PECO was merged with and into Merger Sub, with
Merger Sub continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CLARCOR. The
merger consideration paid to the shareholders of PECO at closing was approximately $163,000,000
(subject to certain adjustments described below), consisting of (i)&nbsp;2,137,797 shares of CLARCOR
common stock, par value $1.00 per share and (ii)&nbsp;cash in the amount of approximately 80,050,000.
The amount of the merger consideration is subject to a post-closing adjustment based on the
adjusted working capital of PECO as of the closing, which is currently anticipated to be favorable
to CLARCOR. Of the merger consideration, $6,000,000 in cash and 278,513 shares of CLARCOR common
stock having an approximate fair market value of $10,000,000 (the &#147;Escrowed Fund&#148;) has been

of the Merger Agreement. All of the Escrowed Fund will be available to satisfy any claims made on

prior to January&nbsp;31, 2011 and $5,000,000 will be available to satisfy certain claims made on or
prior to January&nbsp;31, 2014.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;) the financial
statements and pro forma financial information required to be filed pursuant to Rule&nbsp;3-05 of
