RR Donnelley & Sons Company (the "Company") held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 24, 2007 and reports the following vote results:

Each of Messrs. Thomas J. Quinlan III, Oliver R. Sockwell and Stephen M. Wolf were elected to the Company's board of directors. The stockholders ratified the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for 2007. The stockholders approved amendments to the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation eliminating the classified structure of the board of directors and eliminating the supermajority vote requirement for mergers, consolidations or asset sales.

The stockholders rejected a stockholder proposal urging the board of directors to adopt and implement a company-wide sustainability policy based on the principles of the United Nations' Global Compact with 78.0% of the shares voted at the meeting voted against the proposal or abstaining. The stockholders rejected a stockholder proposal to elect each director annually with 75.12% of the shares voted at the meeting voted against the proposal or abstaining. On these matters, abstentions have the effect of a vote against each such proposal.
