*The Retention Award is a grant of performance units equal to a specified percentage of base salary, which vests and is converted to a right to receive common stock (or, in the Compensation Committee’s discretion, cash with an equivalent value) based on continuous employment with the Company (in the same position or in a position with greater authority) through January 3, 2013.
**The Performance Incentive is a grant of performance units equal to a specified percentage of base salary. These performance units may vest and be converted to a right to receive common stock (or, in the Compensation Committee’s discretion, cash with an equivalent value) based on (1) continuous employment with the Company (in the same position or in a position with greater authority) through January 3, 2013; and (2) the Company’s achieving levels of Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”) ranging from 5% ROCE to 14% ROCE. For purposes of this plan, ROCE is determined by excluding base gains from timberland sales and adjusting for other extraordinary items (which may include, for example, facility closure charges, one-time expenses associated with certain major capital projects, black liquor tax credit impacts, or other similar items). ROCE is calculated after incentive compensation expenses have been included. No shares of common stock or cash will be awarded if earnings are at the bottom of the targeted range of ROCE, and the number of shares of common stock or cash awarded will increase on a pro rata basis to the maximum potential award if ROCE is at the top of the targeted range.
