REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Administrator of the
RR Donnelley Savings Plan
Chicago, Illinois
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of R.R. Donnelley Savings Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, and the supplemental schedule as listed in the accompanying table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans Administrator. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plans internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of R.R. Donnelley Savings Plan, as listed in the table of contents, is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans Administrator. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010 and 2009
NOTE 1 PLAN DESCRIPTION
The following brief description of the RR Donnelley Savings Plan (the Plan) of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company (the Company) is provided for general information only. Effective September 1, 2008, (i) the name of the Plan was changed from the Donnelley Deferred Compensation and Voluntary Savings Plan to the RR Donnelley Savings Plan and (ii) the Moore Wallace North America, Inc. Savings Plan was merged into the Plan. Refer to the Summary Plan Description or the Plan document for more complete information. The Plan was established to allow employees to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. It is intended to qualify as a cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) and it is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). The Plan is administered by a committee established per the terms of the Plan.
Administration
All of the Plan assets are held in the RR Donnelley Savings Plan Master Trust (the Master Trust), formerly known as the Donnelley Deferred Compensation & Voluntary Savings Plan Master Trust. The Charles Schwab Trust Company was trustee of the Master Trust and The Bank of New York Mellon was custodian as of December 31, 2009. Effective January 1, 2010, the administrative and record keeping services were transferred from The Charles Schwab Trust Company to Aon Hewitt, LLC and The Bank of New York Mellon became trustee (the Trustee) and custodian of the Master Trust. The Charles Schwab Trust Company is the asset custodian of the self-directed/managed accounts.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses paid by the Plan include recordkeeping fees, investment consulting fees, and most other administrative fees, including various printing and postage charges. Expenses paid by the Company include audit fees, legal fees, and some other administrative fees.
Eligibility
Generally, all employees of the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries are eligible to become Plan members (participants), unless they are part of a bargaining unit that does not participate in the Plan. There are currently no service or age requirements for participation in the Plan. Employees become eligible to participate in the Plan on the first day of employment with the Company or one of its participating affiliates and can enroll as soon as administratively practicable thereafter.
Contributions
Participants may elect to make before-tax and after-tax contributions under the Plan. Subject to certain limitations, the contribution election percentages allowed are from 1% - 85% of pay for both before-tax and after-tax, and the total of both elections cannot exceed 85% of pay. Effective January 1, 2011, the Plan made available Roth contributions and began to accept rollover contributions of designated after-tax Roth contributions.
Effective January 1, 2009, the Company suspended all regular matching contributions, except with respect to members of certain collective bargaining units. In addition, the Plan permits the Company to provide a discretionary matching contribution to certain employees. For the 2009 and 2010 Plan years, no discretionary matching contributions were approved. Matching contributions are contributed to the Master Trust in cash and invested according to the participants current investment elections.
Participants may also roll over amounts to the Plan that was distributed from certain types of retirement plans and accounts.
Before-tax and after-tax contributions are funded by payroll deductions and must be made in whole percentages of employee eligible earnings. Earnings of the Plan, as well as before-tax contributions and matching contributions to the Plan, generally are not taxable to the participants until withdrawn.
Participants can change investment elections and contribution allocations on a daily basis.
Participants may invest up to 20% of their account balance and up to 20% of their current contributions in the Company Stock Fund, and may shift their contributions into and out of the Company Stock Fund at any time.

NOTE 1 PLAN DESCRIPTION (continued)
Vesting
Except with respect to certain members of collective bargaining units, participants are 100% vested with respect to all contributions and earnings of the Plan.
Notes Receivable from Participants
Participants are permitted to borrow up to the lesser of 50% of their before-tax, after-tax, Roth, matching and rollover account balance, or $50,000, reduced by the highest outstanding loan balance in the last 12 months. The minimum loan amount is $1,000. Prior to August 1, 2006, participants were allowed two outstanding loans. Effective August 1, 2006, the Plan was amended to allow only one outstanding loan for a maximum loan period of four and a half years. Existing loans established prior to August 1, 2006, were grandfathered into the amended plan. The loans are secured by the balance in the participants accounts and bear interest at a rate equal to 1% over the prime rate, as published in the Wall Street Journal. The interest rate for the loans during 2010 ranged from a low of 2.34% to a high of 11.00%. The participant pays an administrative fee of $100 to the Plans record keeper, Aon Hewitt, LLC, at the inception of the loan.
Benefit Payments and Withdrawals
The value of a participants account may be distributed on retirement or other termination of employment or, subject to certain limitations, on the participants incurrence of a financial hardship, death or attainment of age 59.5. Special distribution rules apply to terminated employees on attainment of age 70.5. A participant may withdraw his or her after-tax contributions and rollover contributions at any time. As soon as practicable after a distribution or withdrawal is requested, payment will be made in a lump-sum cash amount or, in certain limited circumstances, in the form of Company stock.
Investment Options
The investment options provided under the Plan are as follows:
Target Date Fundsfunds with diversified portfolios comprised of the core investment options available in the Plan. The Target Date Funds are designed to offer a simple investment solution and, except for the Conservative Income Fund, automatically reduce exposure to equities as the participant ages based on an assumed retirement age between 63 and 67, inclusive. They are funds that use professionally designed investment strategies and invest in the core investment options within the Plan.
Stable Value Fundthe primary objective of the Stable Value Fund is to preserve principal while maintaining liquidity through investing in fixed income securities.
Fixed Income Index Fundthis fund seeks to match the Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index.
Fixed Income Core Plus Fundthis fund seeks to outperform the Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index through investing in U.S. and non-U.S. fixed income securities.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accounts of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting. The Plan has evaluated subsequent events through June 23, 2011, which is the date that the financial statements were approved and available to be issued, for events requiring recording or disclosure in the Plans financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
The Plans investments held in the Master Trust are stated at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See Note 6 for discussion of fair value measurements.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are determined based on revalued cost. Revalued cost is the fair value of investments at the beginning of the year or the average cost of investments if purchased in the current year.
Plan Distributions
Benefit payments to participants are recorded upon distribution. The trustee uses a distribution account to make all benefit payments. Amounts are transferred from the participants investment fund(s) to this account as directed by the Plan administrator.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
DECEMBER 31, 2010 and 2009
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan provides various options for investing in securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term could materially affect participants account balances and the amounts reported in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits and the Statements of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (ASU 2010-06), which requires additional disclosures regarding transfers between Level 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy, as well as a more detailed reconciliation of recurring Level 3 measurements. Certain aspects of ASU 2010-06 were effective and adopted by the Plan for the period ended December 31, 2010. However, this adoption did not have and is not expected to have a material impact on the Plans Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits or the Statements of Change in Net Assets Available for Benefits.
In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-09 Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements (ASU 2010-09), which amends the Subsequent Events Topic by no longer requiring an SEC filer to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The Plan has evaluated subsequent events through the date that the financial statements were approved and available to be issued, for events requiring recording or disclosure in the Plans financial statements.
In September 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-25 Plan Accounting- Defined Contribution Pension Plans (Topic 962): Amendments to Reporting Loans to Participants by Defined Contribution Pension Plans (ASU 2010-25), which amends the classification of participant loans from investments to notes receivable from participants, which are segregated from plan investments and measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. ASU 2010-25 was effective and adopted by the Plan as of December 31, 2010 and resulted in a reclassification on the Plans Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits and the Fair Value Measurements disclosure (Note 6).
Reclassification
For comparability, certain 2009 amounts have been reclassified to conform to classifications adopted in 2010.
NOTE 3 PLAN MERGERS/BATCH ROLLOVERS
The RR Donnelley Savings Plan did not merge with any other plan during 2009 or 2010. Employees with account balances in the terminated Bowne Savings Plan were permitted to rollover their account balances from the Bowne Savings Plan into the RR Donnelley Savings Plan commencing on December 31, 2010. A batch rollover of some of those account balances was effective on January 27, 2011, in the amount of $74,917,093.
NOTE 4 INVESTMENT IN RR DONNELLEY SAVINGS PLAN MASTER TRUST
As described in Accounting Standards Codification 960, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, Plan Accounting Defined Benefit Pension Plans (ASC 960), investment contracts held by a defined-contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined-contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the plan. As required by the ASC, the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment contracts as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value to contract value. The Statements of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits is prepared on a contract value basis. The amounts relating to the investment contract fair value, and related adjustment, are broken out in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits and Master Trust detail.

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Plans interest in the net assets of the Master Trust was 100% (reflecting the merger described above). Interest and dividends, along with net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of investments, are accounted for on a daily basis based upon the Plans participation in the various investment funds and portfolios that comprise the Master Trust.

NOTE 5 GALLIARD STABLE VALUE FUND
The Master Trust, holding the Plan assets, entered into benefit-responsive investment contracts via investment in the Galliard Stable Value Fund, a collective investment fund.
The fund primarily invests in security-backed contracts issued by insurance companies and other financial institutions. A security-backed contract is an investment contract issued by an insurance company or other financial institution, backed by a portfolio of bonds that are owned by the fund. The portfolio underlying the contract is maintained separately from the contract issues general assets, usually by a third party custodian. The interest crediting rate of a security-backed contract is based on the contract value and the fair value, duration, and yield to maturity of the underlying portfolio. These contracts typically allow for realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying assets to be amortized, usually over the duration of the underlying investments, through adjustment to the future interest crediting rate, rather than reflected immediately in the net assets of the fund.
Risks arise when entering into any investment contract due to the potential inability of the issuer to meet the terms of the contract. In addition, security-backed contracts have the risk of default or the lack of liquidity of the underlying portfolio assets.

RR DONNELLEY SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
DECEMBER 31, 2010 and 2009
NOTE 5 GALLIARD STABLE VALUE FUND (continued)
The credit risk of each issuer is evaluated and monitored through Galliards credit analysis. The fund requires that each investment contract, and subsequently the issuers of each contract, have at least an A rating as of the contract effective date, and that all underlying portfolio assets be rated investment grade at the time of purchase.
The primary variables impacting the future crediting rates of security-backed contracts include:
| The current yield of the assets underlying the contract; |
| The duration of the assets underlying the contract; and |
| The existing difference between the fair value and contract value of the assets within the contract. |
The yield earned by the Galliard fund at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was 2.56% and 3.86%, respectively. This represents the annualized earnings of all investments in the fund, including the earnings recorded at the underlying collective trust funds, divided by the fair value of all investments in the fund at December 31, 2010, or 2009, as applicable.
The yield earned by the fund with an adjustment to reflect the actual interest rate credited to participants in the fund at December 31, 2010 and 2009, was 3.17% and 3.27%, respectively. This represents the annualized earnings credited to participants in the fund divided by the fair value of all investments in the fund at December 31, 2010, or 2009, as applicable.
The security-backed contracts are designed to reset their respective crediting rates on a quarterly basis and cannot credit an interest rate that is less than 0%.
The crediting rate of security-backed contracts will track current market yields on a trailing basis. The rate reset allows the contract value to converge with the fair value of the underlying portfolio over time, assuming the portfolio continues to earn the current yield for a period of time equal to the current portfolio duration.
To the extent that the underlying portfolio of a security-backed contract has unrealized and/or realized losses, a positive adjustment is made to the adjustment from fair value to contract value under contract value accounting. As a result, the future crediting rate may be lower over time than the then-current market rates. Similarly, if the underlying portfolio generates unrealized and/or realized gains, a negative adjustment is made to the adjustment from fair value to contract value, and the future crediting rate may be higher than the then-current market rates. The adjustment from fair value to contract value for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts was ($10,612,183) and $6,424,040 for the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Security-backed contracts generally provide for withdrawals associated with certain events which are not in the ordinary course of Fund operations and are paid with a market value adjustment. Events that may trigger a market value adjustment can include the following:
| Material amendments to the Funds structure or administration; |
| Changes to the participating plans competing investment options including the elimination of equity wash provisions; |
| Complete or partial termination of the Fund, including merger with another fund; |
| The failure of the Fund to qualify for exemption from federal income taxes or any required prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA; |
| The redemption of all or a portion of the interests in the Fund held by a participating plan including withdrawals due to the removal of a specifically identifiable group of employees from coverage under the participating plan, the closing or sale of a subsidiary, employing unit, or affiliate, the bankruptcy or insolvency of a plan sponsor, the merger of the plan with another plan, or the plan sponsors establishment of another tax qualified defined contribution plan; |
| Any change in law, regulation, ruling, administrative or judicial position, or accounting requirement, applicable to the Funds or participating plans; and |
| The delivery of any communication to plan participants designed to influence a participant not to invest in the Fund. |
At this time, the Fund does not believe that the occurrence of any such market value event, which would limit the Funds ability to transact at contract value with participants, is probable.

NOTE 6 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Plan adopted Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements but does not change the requirements to apply fair value in existing accounting standards. A summary of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 is described below.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Plans investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting the Companys own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. The asset or liabilitys fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of the input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for these items, as well as the general classification of such items pursuant to the fair value hierarchy of ASC 820:
Cash equivalents and other assets Carrying value approximates fair value. Cash and other assets are classified as Level 1.
Collective trust fund The investment relates to the Galliard Stable Value Fund as discussed in Note 5. Security-backed contracts are carried at contract value in the aggregate, which consists of the fair value of the contract, and the adjustments to contract value. These adjustments generally represent the contract value less the fair value of the contract, fair value of the underlying portfolio, and accrued interest on the underlying portfolio assets.
The fair value of a security-backed contract includes the value of the underlying securities and the value of the wrapper contract. The fair value of the wrapper contract provided by a security-backed contract issuer is the present value of the difference between the current wrapper fee and the contracted wrapper fee. As such, these assets are classified as Level 2.
Mutual funds Valued at the net asset value (NAV) of shares held by the Plan at year end. NAV is derived by the quoted prices of underlying investments. All funds that are separately managed and not traded on an exchange are classified as Level 2.
U.S. equity securities Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. R.R Donnelley Company common stock, including the TRASOP fund, is classified as Level 1 since it is actively traded on the market or exchange. Self-directed brokerage accounts are classified as Level 1.
The valuation methodologies described above may generate a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or future fair values. While the Plan believes the valuation methodologies used are appropriate, the use of different methodologies or assumptions in calculating fair value could result in different amounts. The Plan invests in various assets in which valuation is determined by NAV. The Plan believes that the NAV is representative of fair value at the reporting date, as there are no significant restrictions on redemption on these investments or other reasons to indicate that the investment would be redeemed at an amount different than the NAV.

NOTE 7 TAX STATUS OF THE PLAN
The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on November 22, 2002, in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, (the Code) including Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan administrator, having consulted with the Plans counsel, believes that the Plan and its related trust remain tax-exempt as of the financial statement date. A letter of request for a new determination letter was filed on December 28, 2006. The IRS delivered notice to the Plan administrator that it would not act on the 2006 filing because they had received a more recent application on July 14, 2010, which was required to be filed due to the filing cycle.
NOTE 8 PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to terminate the Plan at any time subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, the rights of the participants in their account balances will, to the extent not already vested, become 100% vested.

NOTE 9 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
At December 31, 2010, the Master Trust held an aggregate of 2,251,598 units of Company common stock in the TRASOP Fund and the Company Stock Fund, which funds are primarily invested in common shares of Company stock with an original cost of $49,055,699 and a market value of $39,335,417. At December 31, 2009, the Master Trust held an aggregate of 6,271,794 units of Company common stock in the TRASOP Fund and the Company Stock Fund, which funds are primarily invested in common shares of Company stock with an original cost of $62,002,356 and a market value of $54,762,090.
These investments qualify as party-in-interest transactions. However, they are exempt from the prohibited transactions rules of ERISA. Certain plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by The Bank of New York Mellon (the Trustee) as defined by the Plan and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. Fees paid by the Plan for the investment management services are with the Trustee and are party in interest transactions. These fees are netted against investment income for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.
