Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
          On August 8, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved an amendment to the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) rules that requires NYSE listed companies on and after January 1, 2008 to be eligible to participate in the Direct Registration System (“DRS”), which requires that NYSE-listed companies allow for paperless certificates.
          As a result, on December 20, 2007, the Board of Directors of Ennis, Inc. (the “Company”) approved an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Company’s Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), effective December 20, 2007. The Amendment added and/or modified Section 1 and Section 2 of Article VI of the Bylaws to permit the issuance of shares of the Company’s stock in uncertificated form. The Amendment also permits direct or “book-entry” registration of shares of the Company’s stock and thereby facilitates the Company’s eligibility to participate in the DRS.
