Zomax Signs Agreement to Settle Shareholder Class Action Lawsuit

Zomax Incorporated (Nasdaq: ZOMX), today announced that it has signed an agreement to settle, without admission of liability, the class action lawsuit pending against the Company relating to alleged securities law violations in 2000. The agreement, which is dependent upon the completion of certain discovery by the plaintiffs' counsel and final approval by the United States District Court in Minneapolis, resolves all shareholder class members' claims against the Company and certain of its former officers. The agreement calls for $2.25 million to be paid in cash by the Company's directors' and officers' insurer and the issuance by the Company of 1.5 million shares of its common stock.

"The settlement of this class action lawsuit will be a positive step in our efforts to resolve the issues created by the events of 2000," said Anthony Angelini, President and CEO of Zomax. "We are pleased to have a settlement
agreement so we can focus our time and efforts on other important core
operating activities of our business."
As earlier announced, the Company recorded charges in the third and fourth
quarters of 2004 related to the 1.5 million shares to be issued as part of the
settlement. The charge associated with these shares will continue to be
adjusted based on the market price of the Company's stock until final approval
of the settlement by the Court.
With respect to comparable claims of the SEC associated with its
investigation into these activities in 2000, the Company's previously
disclosed settlement offer remains under consideration by the SEC.
