                   Primary PDC Consents to PBGC's Request
                     to Terminate Polaroid Pension Plan

WALTHAM, Mass. - September 12, 2002 - Primary PDC, Inc., formerly known as
Polaroid Corporation, today consented to the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation's request to terminate the Polaroid Pension Plan effective July
31, 2002. PBGC is a United States government agency that guarantees benefits,
up to limits set by law, under certain terminated pension plans. As a result
of the termination, PBGC now is trustee of the Pension Plan and is responsible
for administration and payment of benefits under the Plan, up to the limits
guaranteed by law.

         According to PBGC Executive Director Steven A. Kandarian (in a PBGC
press release issued today), "PBGC is stepping in because Polaroid has sold
its assets in bankruptcy and the purchaser will not assume the pension plan."
Termination of the Polaroid Pension Plan is part of the wind-up of the
business whose assets were sold on July 31, 2002. In connection with the sale,
substantially all of Primary PDC's employees became employees of the company
that purchased the assets, which now operates as Polaroid Corporation. No
benefits have been earned under the Plan since July 31, 2002.

         Primary PDC's unsecured creditors also consented to the termination.

         As a result of the termination, retirees will continue to receive
monthly benefits up to the limits that PBGC guarantees. Workers and retirees
do not need to take any action as a result of the termination. Questions may
be directed to the PBGC Customer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-400-7242.
For TTY/TDD users, call the federal relay service toll-free at 1-800-877-8339
and ask to be connected to 1-800-400-7242. Further information about PBGC's
pension insurance program is available at the agency website, www.pbgc.gov.
