Visant Corporation ("Visant") and Intergold Ltd. ("Intergold") (TSX
VENTURE:IGO.A) jointly announce that Intergold Acquisition Corp. (the
"Offeror"), a newly incorporated, wholly owned subsidiary of Visant's Jostens,
Inc. subsidiary, has taken up 26,673,947 Class "A" voting common shares of
Intergold ("Common Shares") validly deposited to its offer (the "Offer") to
acquire all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares for $0.16 (Cdn.) cash
per Common Share. These shares represent approximately 96 per cent of the issued
and outstanding Common Shares. The Common Shares taken up pursuant to the Offer
are expected to be paid for on April 22, 2010 and in any event no later than
April 26, 2010.


Given the Offer has been accepted by holders of more than 90 per cent of Common
Shares, the Offeror has exercised its right to acquire the remaining Common
Shares pursuant to the compulsory acquisition provisions of the Business
Corporations Act (Alberta), as described in the Offer. Intergold anticipates
that the compulsory acquisition of the remaining Common Shares will be completed
on or about April 22, 2010, the date that Offeror will pay for the Common Shares
taken up pursuant to the Offer.


Visant will also take the necessary steps to delist Intergold from the TSX
Venture Exchange and make the necessary applications to cease to be a reporting
issuer in the Provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario.


Intergold shareholders are encouraged to contact Computershare Investor Services
Inc. at 1-800-564-6253 (North American Toll Free Number) for further information
on the compulsory acquisition procedures and any other information relating to
the Offer.
