American Greetings to Acquire PhotoWorks, Inc.
CLEVELAND and SEATTLE, Nov 28, 2007 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- American Greetings Corporation (NYSE: AM) and PhotoWorks, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: PHTW) today announced they have entered into an agreement whereby American Greetings, through a wholly owned subsidiary, will acquire PhotoWorks for approximately $26.5 million. Under the terms of the agreement, American Greetings will make a cash tender offer to acquire all outstanding common shares of PhotoWorks at a price of 59.5 cents per share. The tender offer will be followed by a merger in which the holders of the outstanding common shares of PhotoWorks not purchased in the tender offer will receive the same per share price paid in the tender offer, in cash, without interest. American Greetings is expected to launch the tender offer shortly, and the merger is expected to close in late January 2008. The Board of Directors of PhotoWorks has unanimously recommended that shareholders of PhotoWorks accept the offer. Certain shareholders of PhotoWorks have already signed agreements by which they agreed to tender all of their shares in the tender offer. The shares held by such shareholders represent 44.5% of the total shares of PhotoWorks currently outstanding.
PhotoWorks is a leading online photo sharing and personal publishing company that allows consumers to use their digital images to create quality photo-personalized products like greeting cards, calendars, online photo albums and photo books. PhotoWorks offers consumers new, creative, and refreshing ways to connect and express themselves privately with friends and family, and publicly within communities of similar interest.
Zev Weiss, Chief Executive Officer of American Greetings said, "The acquisition of PhotoWorks positions us for a comprehensive photo strategy, bringing together both digital and physical products. We are taking advantage of the opportunity to establish a leadership position in this growing channel of the social expression industry."
Josef Mandelbaum, Chief Executive Officer of AG Interactive, one of American Greetings' segments, stated, "Our previous acquisition of Webshots provided a strong entree into the online photo sharing space, a significant number of unique visitors, and a scalable platform. Now, PhotoWorks provides a strong integrated supply chain platform to provide customers the ability to create unique, high quality physical products with their own photos. This further positions us to provide a full social expression photo solution to our consumers."
Andy Wood, President and Chief Executive Officer of PhotoWorks said, "PhotoWorks is thrilled to be a part of this important step forward for American Greetings. We are excited to build and provide a compelling online experience for consumers in cooperation with one of the world's leading greeting card and social expression companies. I am confident that combining these companies' content and relationships will result in a more appealing site with truly unique products for all of our consumers."
Weiss added, "At this time, the transaction is expected to have a minimal impact to fiscal 2008 earnings."

EXHIBIT B Below is the text of a letter distributed to PhotoWorks employees on November 28, 2007:
November 28, 2007 Dear PhotoWorks Colleagues, We have announced today our plans to be acquired by American Greetings through a cash tender offer for outstanding shares of PhotoWorks followed by a merger at a price of approximately $26.5 million, or 59.5 cents/share. We are very excited about the opportunities that lay ahead for us as we partner with American Greetings to continue to deliver high quality photo sharing and personal publishing by helping customers connect and express themselves. I’m sure you have lots of questions about American Greetings and what this change will mean to you. Details are continuing to be worked out and we will be able to provide more information in the near future. The transaction is expected to close in January, 2008. We will be looking at how we integrate the Webshots service, which American Greetings recently purchased, with the PhotoWorks service to deliver the best photo sharing and publishing experience online. We are planning on keeping the Seattle office open, but will be integrating with operations in Cleveland to leverage the American Greetings expertise and scale. Existing benefits such as health care and 401K and other incentives will be integrated into the American Greetings benefit, health and incentive plans once the transaction is fully complete. I encourage you to visit their corporate website to learn more about the company. http://corporate.americangreetings.com/ We will share more details with you as we have them. But in the meantime, let’s all continue to focus on the holiday season and serving our customers. Yours sincerely, /s/ Andy Wood Andy Wood

Cisco, if you don't have L2s, what you should do tonight is get some, even if you go to that pump site and get current-but-not-streaming L2...you can refresh every few seconds.
Anyway, be good to watch this in the morning. The MMs will some of their good traders on it and some will have new guys on it...more than likely, they'll have a field day.

Level 1 is your streamer, quote window...whatever your broker provides. I assume you have that...
Level 2? Medved Quotetracker I think is still free. You can google "Bloom" something "bloom field" maybe and "free level 2" to find that pump site that gives 'em away. You sign up for their pump sheet, but you get real time, static, not dynamic. easy to screen shoot, though...
Thanks, but I have no extra time. Will try to drop by, though.

I don't think there's a free real time l2 place out there. At least, I haven't found anything that wasn't delayed. I know some brokers will give you free real time l2 if you make so many trades per month.
sign up at http://alphatrade.com/ for the free 7 day trial. After the 7 days, it'll run ya about $50 per month

look for sumpin better, imo... you want T&S, too--should appear to right of B/A, in a longer, narrower window. The deal is, I suspect you'll see differences in T&S between Level 1 and Level 2...
save 'em for study later...don't try to follow tomorrow

Bloomfield Investment club. It's not free anymore, requires a subscription. That was a lifesaver for me for a couple of months, since I can't use streaming programs at work, but there's was a "refreshable" page, so it didn't get flagged. Alas, it is no more.
