(c) Following the Closing, the Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates, agents and representatives, and their respective officers and directors to, keep all confidential or proprietary information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, “Company Confidential Information”) confidential, and the Sellers shall not, and shall cause their Affiliates, agents and representatives, and their respective officers and directors not to, use any of such Company Confidential Information to the detriment of the Company or its Subsidiaries, except to the extent that (i) a Seller or any of the Persons referenced above receives a request to disclose such information to a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Seller or other Person referenced above, (ii) any applicable Law requires otherwise, (iii) such disclosure is necessary for the enforcement of a Seller’s rights or the defense of a Seller in any legal, administrative, regulatory or other proceeding, or (iv) such duty as to confidentiality is waived in writing by the Buyer; provided, with respect to subclauses (i) and (ii), that if the disclosing Person is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Company Confidential Information, then such Person will notify the Buyer and the Company promptly of the request or requirement so that the Buyer or the Company may seek an

appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.3(c), and if a protective order or other remedy is not available, unless the Buyer waives compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.3(c), then such Person may disclose to the Governmental Authority requiring disclosure only that portion of the Company Confidential Information which such Person is advised by its counsel is legally required to be disclosed, and shall exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such portion.

Section 6.4. Reasonable Best Efforts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and applicable Law, each of the Parties shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under Laws or otherwise to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Timber SPA as soon as practicable, including such actions or things as any other Party may reasonably request in order to cause any of the conditions to such other Party’s obligation to consummate such transactions specified in Article VII to be fully satisfied.

Section 6.6. HSR Act Compliance; Government Approvals.

(a) The Buyer, the Company and the Sellers shall timely and promptly cause to be made all filings which may be required by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Department of Justice, or any other applicable Governmental Authority (collectively, the “Antitrust Authority”) for the satisfaction of the closing conditions set forth in Article VII by each of them and their respective Affiliates in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Timber SPA. If the Parties determine that it is required by applicable Law, each of the Parties agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to file Notification and Report Forms and related material with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice under the HSR Act promptly after the execution of this Agreement pursuant to specific timing and procedures to be agreed upon by the Parties. The Parties shall file any similar applications required by any other applicable Governmental Authority whose approval is required in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Timber SPA as promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement. The Parties agree to, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates to, cooperate and promptly respond to any requests of any Antitrust Authority for information, and to use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any Consent of any Antitrust Authority required for the Closing (including through

Subject to the provisions of Article IX, none of the Company, the Sellers or the Buyer shall take any action inconsistent with its obligations under this Agreement or, without prejudice to their respective rights under this Agreement, which would materially hinder or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Timber SPA. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, the Parties will consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any Party in connection with proceedings before any Antitrust Authority.

The Parties shall use reasonable commercial efforts to share information protected from disclosure under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine, joint defense privilege or any other privilege pursuant to this Section 6.6 so as to preserve any applicable privilege.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any formal written objections are asserted by any Antitrust Authority with respect to the substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Timber SPA, or if any Action is instituted (or threatened in writing to be instituted) by any Antitrust Authority or any other Person challenging any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Timber SPA, no Party shall be obligated to litigate or contest any such Action, and no Party shall be obligated to assent to, proffer to or agree to any settlements, undertakings, consent decrees, stipulations, or any other agreements that require such Party to: (i) sell, divest, license or otherwise dispose of, or hold separate and agree to sell, divest, license or otherwise dispose of, assets, categories of assets, businesses or portions of businesses of the Company, the Buyer or their respective Subsidiaries; (ii) terminate existing relationships, contractual rights or obligations of the Company, the Buyer or their respective Subsidiaries; (iii) terminate any joint venture or other arrangement; (iv) create any relationship, contractual rights or obligations of the Company, the Buyer or their respective Subsidiaries; or (v) effectuate any other change or restructuring of the Company, the Buyer or their respective Subsidiaries.

Section 6.8. Notification of Certain Matters.

(a) Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, each Party will give prompt written notice to the other Parties after it becomes aware of: (i) any information that indicates that any of the representations or warranties of any Party contained herein or in the Timber SPA are not true and correct, (ii) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event with respect to any Party which will result, or has a reasonable prospect of resulting, in the failure of any condition, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or the Timber SPA to be complied with or satisfied, (iii) any failure of any Party to comply with or satisfy any condition, covenant or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder, (iv) any notice or other communication from any third party alleging that the Consent of such third party is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Timber SPA or that such transactions otherwise may violate the rights of or confer remedies upon such third party, or (v) any filing or threatened filing of any Action related to this Agreement or the Timber SPA or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(b) Subject to Section 6.8(c), prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers and the Company shall have the right (but not the obligation) from time to time to supplement the Disclosure Letter (each such supplement, a “Supplemental Disclosure Letter”) for the purpose of updating disclosures made therein to reflect any facts or matters identified or occurring after the date hereof (“Disclosed Additional Matters”). The Sellers and the Company shall deliver to the Buyer any Supplemental Disclosure Letters, prepared in accordance with this Section 6.8(b), setting forth separately the Disclosed Additional Matters, promptly after senior management of the Company or the Sellers becomes aware of the Disclosed Additional Matters and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in the circumstances described in Section 6.8(c), no Disclosed Additional Matter shall qualify any covenants, representations or warranties of the Company or the Sellers for the purpose of determining the satisfaction of the conditions to Closing under Section 7.3 or whether the Buyer Group is entitled to indemnification for breach of a covenant, representation or warranty of the Company or the Sellers pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(i) or 8.1(a)(ii).

(c) The Sellers and the Company shall promptly notify the Buyer in writing, and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, if the Disclosed Additional Matters contained in the Supplemental Disclosure Letters, individually or in the

aggregate, have caused any of the conditions to the Buyer’s obligation to close set forth in Section 7.3(a) to fail to be satisfied and whether such failure can be cured. If the Sellers and the Company give any such notice and such notice states that the failure cannot be cured, the Buyer shall have the right, exercisable within ten (10) Business Days of such notice from Buyer, to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(d) by delivering written notice thereof to the Company. In the event that the Buyer waives such termination right and the Closing occurs, the Disclosed Additional Matters contained in the Supplemental Disclosure Letters shall be treated as if they had been included in the Disclosure Letter as of the Closing Date for the purpose of determining whether the Buyer Group is entitled to indemnification for breach of a representation and warranty of the Company or the Sellers pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(ii).

Section 6.9. Post-Closing Access; Preservation of Records.

(a) On the Closing Date, the Sellers shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Buyer all contracts, books, records, Tax Returns, documents and files of the Company and its Subsidiaries in the possession of the Sellers or their Affiliates, including records and files stored on computer disks or tapes or any other storage medium relating to the business and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries. From and after the Closing, the Buyer will make or cause to be made available to the Sellers all books, records, Tax Returns and documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to the period prior to the Closing (and the assistance of employees responsible for such books, records and documents) during regular business hours as may be reasonably necessary for (i) investigating, settling, preparing for the defense or prosecution of, defending or prosecuting any Action, (ii) preparing reports to Governmental Authorities or (iii) such other purposes for which access to such documents is reasonably believed by the Sellers to be necessary, including preparing and delivering any accounting or other statement provided for under this Agreement or otherwise, preparing Tax Returns or responding to or disputing any Tax audit; provided, however, that access to such books, records, Tax Returns, documents and employees shall only be upon reasonable notice and shall not unreasonably disrupt personnel and operations of the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries and shall be at the Sellers’ sole cost and expense. The Buyer will cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve all such Tax Returns, books, records and other documents for a period equal to the lesser of (A) the Buyer’s standard retention period, but not less than three (3) years after the Closing Date, and (B) any applicable statutory or regulatory retention period, as the same may be extended and, in each case, shall offer to transfer such records to the Sellers at the end of any such period by providing the Sellers with not less than twenty (20) days’ written notice of the Buyer’s intention to destroy or dispose of such records with the Sellers to exercise its rights to obtain such records within such twenty-(20)-day period.

(b) From and after the Closing, the Sellers will make or cause to be made available to the Buyer all books, records and documents of the Sellers relating to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries (and the assistance of employees responsible for such books, records and documents) during regular business hours for the same purposes, to the extent applicable, as set forth in Section 6.9(a); provided, however, that access to such books, records, documents and employees shall only be upon reasonable notice and shall not unreasonably disrupt personnel and operations of the business of the Sellers and shall be at the Buyer’s sole

cost and expense. The Sellers will maintain and preserve all such Tax Returns, books, records and other documents for a period equal to the lesser of (A) the Sellers’ standard retention period, but not less than three (3) years after the Closing Date, and (B) any applicable statutory or regulatory retention period, as the same may be extended and, in each case, shall offer to transfer such records to the Buyer at the end of any such period by providing the Buyer with not less than twenty (20) days’ written notice of the Sellers’ intention to destroy or dispose of such records, with the Buyer to exercise its rights to obtain such records within that twenty (20)-day period.

Section 6.10. Further Assurances. The Company, the Sellers and the Buyer each agree that from time to time after the Closing Date, they will execute and deliver or cause their respective Affiliates to execute and deliver such further instruments, and take (or cause their respective Affiliates to take) such other action, as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes and intents of this Agreement and the Timber SPA, including, in the case of the Sellers, executing and delivering to the Buyer such assignments, deeds, bills of sale, consents and other instruments as the Buyer or its counsel may reasonably request as necessary or desirable for such purpose.

Section 6.11. Resignations; Appointments; Director and Officer Indemnification.

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers shall cause to be delivered to the Buyer duly signed resignations, effective immediately after the Closing, of all directors of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries, shall take such other action as is necessary to accomplish the foregoing and shall, at the request of the Buyer, take all action necessary to appoint such Persons as shall be named by the Buyer not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing as directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries effective simultaneously with the Closing.

(b) For six (6) years from and after the Closing, the Buyer shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to maintain indemnification provisions in its organizational documents that are no less favorable to the officers and directors of the Company or its Subsidiaries who held any such position prior to the Closing (collectively, “Indemnified Officers/Directors”) than those in effect with respect to the Company or the applicable Subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement. The Buyer shall cause to be obtained and maintained in effect, for a period of six (6) years after the Closing, policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance protecting the Indemnified Officers/Directors with coverages and terms and conditions (including with respect to deductible amount and payment of attorneys’ fees) that are no less favorable than those in policies applicable to directors and officers of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each of the Parties agrees that from and after the Closing Date each Indemnified Officer/Director shall be a third party beneficiary under this Agreement for purposes of enforcing this Section 6.11.

(c) If subsequent to the Closing, the Buyer, the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective successors or assigns, (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation

or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Buyer, the Company or the Subsidiaries, as the case may be, honor the obligations set forth in this Section 6.11.

(d) The obligations of the Buyer, the Company and the Subsidiaries under this Section 6.11 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner so as to adversely affect any Person to whom this Section 6.11 applies without the prior written consent of such affected Person.

Section 6.12. Release and Waiver by Each Seller. Effective as of the Closing Date, each Seller, on behalf of itself and its officers, directors, employees, members, stockholders, partners, agents, successors, assigns and Affiliates, hereby releases and discharges the Company and its Subsidiaries and their former or present officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, successors and assigns from, and hereby waives, any and all claims, rights and causes of action of any kind or nature whatsoever that such Seller may have had or may now have against the Company and its Subsidiaries, whether known or unknown and whether arising under contract, tort, statute or otherwise, other than any such claims, rights and causes of action arising out of this Agreement or the Timber SPA (it being understood and agreed that the foregoing shall not in any way limit or otherwise restrict any claims, rights and causes of actions that such Seller may have against the Buyer or the Company following the Closing arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or the Timber SPA or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby).

Section 6.13. The Buyer’s Obligations with Respect to Employee Benefits.

(a) After the Closing Date, subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.13, the Buyer agrees that for a period of at least one (1) year after the Closing Date or, if shorter, until an employee is no longer employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, it will (and the Buyer will cause the Company to) (i) provide individuals who are employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing (“Continuing Employees”) participating in medical or other welfare benefits prior to the Closing Date with medical and other welfare benefits substantially similar in the aggregate to those provided to similarly situated employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing Date (the Company Plans providing such medical and other welfare benefits are listed in Section 3.16(a) of the Disclosure Letter); (ii) provide Continuing Employees with a wage and salary program no less favorable in the aggregate than that in place immediately prior to the Closing Date; and (iii) provide Continuing Employees participating in other Company-sponsored or Subsidiary-sponsored benefits prior to the Closing Date with benefits substantially similar in the aggregate to the corresponding benefits provided to similarly situated employees immediately prior to the Closing Date (the Company Plans providing such other benefits are listed in Section 3.16(a) of the Disclosure Letter). In addition, the Buyer agrees to cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to give Continuing Employees service credit for all periods of employment with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, prior to the Closing Date for purposes of vesting and eligibility under any plan adopted or maintained by the Company or its Subsidiaries after the Closing Date in which such employees participate, but only to the extent required by Law; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that

such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits. With respect to the plan year in which the Closing occurs, the Buyer agrees to cause the Company to waive any limitations with respect to Continuing Employees regarding preexisting conditions and to give full credit for any co-payments made and deductibles fully or partially satisfied prior to the Closing Date under any welfare or other employee benefit plans maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Closing Date for the benefit of eligible Company employees, but only to the extent that such limitations were waived and credit was given under the terms of the analogous Company Plan prior to the Closing Date.

(b) From and after the Closing Date, the Company shall be responsible for the administration of and shall assume any and all obligations arising under the continuation coverage requirements of Section 4980B of COBRA for those plan participants in, and beneficiaries under, a Company Plan subject to COBRA.

(c) During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending at the Closing, the Buyer and the Sellers shall consult with each other before issuing any communications or making any public statements to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries regarding the effect of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby on their continued employment, and the Buyer and the Sellers shall cooperate in good faith to determine whether any notice may be required under the WARN Act, any successor United States federal Law, or any other applicable plant closing notification law with respect to a layoff or plant closing relating to the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Buyer shall assume all obligations and liabilities for the provision of notice or payment in lieu of notice or any applicable penalties with respect to the Continuing Employees under such worker notification laws arising as a result of actions taken by the Buyer on or after the Closing Date. The Sellers shall retain or assume all obligations and liabilities for the provision of notice or payment in lieu of notice or any applicable penalties with respect to the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries under such worker notification laws arising as a result of actions taken by the Sellers or their respective Affiliates on or prior to the Closing Date. The Sellers (or their applicable Affiliates) shall promptly provide the Buyer with such information as is reasonably requested by the Buyer in order to determine whether any actions taken by the Sellers or their respective Affiliates prior to the Closing Date will, if aggregated with actions that may be taken by the Buyer or its Affiliates after the Closing Date, require the provision of notice or payment in lieu of notice to the Continuing Employees.

(d) To the extent permitted under applicable Law, the Company will permit employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries to carry over and take accrued or earned, but unused, vacation days or time off with pay in accordance with the applicable policies as in effect as of the date of this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.13, to the extent necessary to comply with any Laws in foreign jurisdictions which safeguard the rights of employees in transfers of undertakings, businesses or parts of businesses, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall comply with their respective obligations under such Laws.

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 6.13, express or implied: (A) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement; (B) shall alter or limit the ability of the Company, the Buyer or any of their Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them, on a basis that is not inconsistent with the provisions set forth in this Section 6.13; (C) is intended to confer upon any Person any right to employment or continued employment for any period of time by reason of this Agreement, or any right to a particular term or condition of employment; or (D) is intended to confer upon any Person any other rights as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

Section 6.14. Senior Credit Agreement. Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, each Party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a written waiver, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer (the “Waiver”), from Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and, to the extent necessary or appropriate, the other lenders under the Senior Credit Agreement, waiving any terms or provisions of the Senior Credit Agreement to the extent that the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Timber SPA would result in a breach of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to any notification or consent requirement or any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation, or to loss of a material benefit under, such terms or provisions, including the transfer restrictions contained in Section 3.9 of the Senior Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Party be obligated to pay any money to any Person or to offer or grant any other financial accommodations to any Person in connection with its obligations under this Section 6.14, except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement. If prior to the Closing the Buyer or its Affiliates enter into discussions with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company or any other lender under the Senior Credit Agreement relating to any amendment or modification of the Senior Credit Agreement, the Buyer shall provide notice thereof to the Sellers and shall keep the Sellers and the Company reasonably informed of the status of such discussions until the Closing Date.

Section 6.15. Related Person Agreements.

(a) The Sellers and the Company shall cause the repayment in full in cash at or prior to the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date of all related party accounts payable and related party accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries (or, if the Buyer elects to proceed with the Alternative Transaction pursuant to Section 6.22, all related party accounts payable and related party accounts receivable of Timber LLC and its Subsidiaries), including any amounts payable or receivable pursuant to the contracts set forth in Sections 3.13(a)(xiii) and 3.13(a)(xiv) of the Disclosure Letter, except for (i) any amounts receivable under the contracts listed in Section 6.15(a) of the Disclosure Letter and (ii) if the Buyer elects to proceed with the Alternative Transaction pursuant to Section 6.22, the Related Party Payable.

(c) If the Buyer elects to proceed with the Alternative Transaction pursuant to Section 6.22, at or promptly following the Closing, the Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Company in cash the amount of the Related Party Payable included in Closing Company Indebtedness, which shall satisfy the Related Party Payable in full.

Section 6.16. Transition. Except as contemplated in Section 6.15, before and after the Closing, no Seller shall take any action that is designed or intended to have the effect of discouraging any lessor, licensor, customer, supplier, or other business associate of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries from maintaining the same business relationships with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the Closing as it maintained with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing.

Section 6.17. Transfer Taxes. With respect to this Agreement, the Timber SPA, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Timber SPA or the documents giving effect to such transactions, (i) the applicable real estate excise and real estate transfer taxes, including the Washington Real Estate Excise Tax, shall be reported and paid by the Sellers at the Closing, and (ii) all other applicable Transfer Taxes shall be reported and paid by the Buyer; provided, however, that the amount of such Transfer Taxes in excess of the amount paid by the Sellers pursuant to clause (i) above, if any, shall be borne 50% by the Buyer and 50% by the Sellers. Any other Tax Returns for Transfer Taxes shall be executed and filed by the Party responsible for filing such Tax Returns under applicable law, any Transfer Taxes shown as due on such Tax Returns shall be paid by such filing Party, and such filing Party shall be reimbursed by each other Party for any portion of such Transfer Taxes that each such other Party is required to bear pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.17.

Section 6.18. Tax Matters.

(a) The Buyer will prepare and timely file, or cause the Company to prepare and timely file, in a manner consistent with prior years, all Tax Returns required to be filed with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries for all taxable periods beginning on or prior to the Closing Date (including any Pre-Closing Tax Period and any Straddle Period) that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. The Buyer shall permit the Sellers to review and comment on each such Tax Return, and each such Tax Return for a taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, in whole or in part, shall be prepared in a manner consistent with prior years and in accordance with the historic practices of the Company and its Subsidiaries. To facilitate the Sellers’ review, the Buyer will deliver drafts of all such Tax Returns, together with pro forma return calculations for all Straddle Period Tax Returns showing the amount of Tax payable with respect to the Pre-Closing Tax Period portion of such Straddle Period, to the Sellers no later than the time periods specified in this Section 6.18. In the case of income Tax Returns, the Buyer will deliver drafts of all such income Tax Returns twenty (20) Business Days prior to the date on

which such income Tax Returns are required to be filed. If, within ten (10) Business Days following their receipt of the draft income Tax Returns, the Sellers do not dispute any provision of the draft income Tax Returns, then the draft income Tax Returns shall be final. In the event that the Sellers dispute any provision of the draft income Tax Returns relating to Pre-Closing Tax Periods, or any provision of a Straddle Period Tax Return relating to a period ending on the Closing Date, then the Buyer shall make such revisions to such income Tax Returns as are requested by the Sellers to the extent such requested revisions are consistent with the historic practices of the Company and its Subsidiaries and not inconsistent with applicable Law. In the case of Tax Returns that are not income Tax Returns (including Business and Occupations Tax Returns for the State of Washington), the Buyer will deliver drafts of such returns two (2) Business Days prior to the date on which such Tax Returns are required to be filed. In the event that the Sellers dispute any provision of a Straddle Period Tax Return relating to a period ending after the Closing Date, and the Sellers and the Buyer cannot agree on the treatment of such item, then such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions for disputing the Adjustment Statement set forth in Section 2.6(f) and Section 2.6(g); provided, however, that the relevant time periods shall be adjusted to allow for completion and filing of the Tax Returns on a timely basis. If any such dispute cannot be resolved prior to the due date of the applicable Tax Return, then the Buyer may file or cause to be filed the Tax Return in the manner that it determines to be appropriate, but the dispute between the Parties nonetheless shall be resolved in accordance with Section 2.6(f) and Section 2.6(g), and that resolution shall govern the rights of the Parties hereunder.

(b) In the case of any audit, examination or other proceeding with respect to Taxes for which the Sellers are or may be liable pursuant to this Agreement, the Buyer shall promptly inform the Sellers. The Buyer shall execute or cause to be executed powers of attorney or other documents necessary to enable the Sellers to take all actions desired by the Sellers with respect to such proceedings to the extent such proceedings may affect the amount of Taxes for which the Sellers may be liable pursuant to this Agreement. The Sellers shall have the right, at the Sellers’ expense, to control any such proceedings and to initiate any claim for refund, file any amended Tax Return or take any other action that the Sellers deem appropriate with respect to such Taxes; provided, however, that the Sellers shall not initiate any claim for refund, file any amended Tax Return or take any other action, including entering into any settlements, without the prior written consent of the Buyer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Any proceeding with respect to Taxes for a Straddle Period shall be controlled by the Buyer, except that, to the extent issues raised in such a proceeding relate to Taxes with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, the proceeding shall be controlled by the Sellers pursuant to this Section 6.18(b) (subject to the limitations contained in this Section 6.18(b), including the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence).

(c) Without the prior written consent of the Sellers, neither the Buyer nor the Company shall amend or allow to be amended any Tax Return filed with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any taxable period beginning prior to the Closing Date.

(d) Each of the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries as is reasonably

necessary for the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, for the preparation for any audit, and for the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding relating to any proposed adjustment. The Buyer and the Sellers agree to use their reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any taxing authority, or customer of the Company or any other Person, as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate a Tax that would otherwise be imposed with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(e) Without the prior written consent of the Sellers, none of the Company, its Subsidiaries or the Buyer shall make, revoke or change any election, change an annual accounting period, adopt, revoke or change any accounting method, file any amended Tax Return, enter into any closing agreement, settle or compromise any Tax claim or assessment relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries, surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes, or take any similar action relating to the filing of any Tax Return or the payment of any Tax, if such election, revocation, adoption, change, amendment, agreement, settlement, compromise, surrender, consent or other action would have the effect of increasing the Tax Liability of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any period beginning before the Closing Date or decreasing any Tax attribute of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries existing on the Closing Date; provided that, notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, an election under Code section 754 may be made for each of Timber LLC and Longview Timberlands LLC, effective for their respective taxable years that include the Closing Date.

Section 6.19. Excess Cash. The Sellers and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that (a) the Closing Net Cash Amount is less than or equal to $30,602,025.00 and (b) the Closing Net Working Capital is less than or equal to $10,672,600.00.

Section 6.20. Longview GP Compliance with Timber SPA. The Sellers shall cause Longview GP to perform and comply with all of its covenants and agreements under the Timber SPA, including its obligation to sell, transfer and convey to WNR at the Closing (as defined in the Timber SPA) all of the issued and outstanding Timber LLC Special Common Units and 15,150 of the Timber LLC Common Units.

Section 6.21. WNR Compliance with Timber SPA. The Buyer shall cause WNR to perform and comply with all of its covenants and agreements under the Timber SPA, including its obligation to acquire from Longview GP at the Closing (as defined in the Timber SPA) all of the issued and outstanding Timber LLC Special Common Units and 15,150 of the Timber LLC Common Units.

Section 6.22. Alternative Transaction Structure. The Buyer may elect, at its sole discretion, to acquire all of the Timber LLC Common Units from Holdings LLC in lieu of acquiring the Shares from the Sellers (the “Alternative Transaction”) by notifying the Sellers in writing of such election at least five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date; provided, that if all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.3 shall have been satisfied, or are capable of being satisfied, by the Closing Date, except that the REIT Opinion of KPMG LLC (or other accountants or tax counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer) proposed to be delivered to the Buyer is not substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C hereto, then the Buyer shall elect to proceed with the Alternative Transaction. In the event that the Buyer

notifies the Sellers of its election to proceed with the Alternative Transaction, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing the Sellers and the Company shall cause Holdings LLC to sell, transfer and convey to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall purchase and acquire from Holdings LLC, all Timber LLC Common Units owned by Holdings LLC, free and clear of all Liens. In the event that the Buyer elects to proceed with the Alternative Transaction pursuant to this Section 6.22, (i) all references to “Shares” in Sections 2.4, 4.4(b), 5.8, 5.10, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.2 and 10.17 shall be deemed to refer to the Timber LLC Common Units, (ii) all references to the “Company” in the definitions of “Closing Company Indebtedness”, “Company Indebtedness”, “Company Transaction Expenses”, “Net Cash Amount” and “Net Working Capital” and in Sections 5.7, 5.9(c), 6.3(c), 6.9, 6.11, 6.12, 6.13, 6.16, 6.18, 7.3(f)(i)-(iv) (but excluding the reference to the “Company” in the introductory sentence of Section 7.3(f)), 8.6 and 10.10 shall be deemed to refer to Timber LLC and (iii) all references to “stock powers”, “stock certificates” or similar documents in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to unit certificates representing the Timber LLC Common Units and other assignment documents necessary to transfer the Timber LLC Common Units owned by Holdings LLC. For the avoidance of doubt, all references to “the transactions contemplated by this Agreement” in this Agreement include the Alternative Transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Buyer elects to proceed with the Alternative Transaction pursuant to this Section 6.22, the Shares will not be transferred to the Buyer at the Closing, and from and after the Closing the Buyer and its Affiliates shall have no liabilities or responsibilities in respect of the Company or Holdings LLC, except for the Buyer’s indemnification obligations to the Company and Holdings LLC, as part of the Seller Group, pursuant to Section 8.1(b).

Following the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VIII, the Buyer will indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Sellers, their respective Affiliates and each of their respective employees, directors, officers, stockholders, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Seller Group”) from and against any and all Damages actually incurred by the Seller Group based upon or arising out of (i) any breach of any Surviving Covenant of the Buyer contained in this Agreement or (ii) any breach of the Buyer’s representations and warranties contained in Article V or in any certificate delivered by the Buyer hereunder (collectively, the “Surviving Buyer Representations”).

(c) Determination of Loss and Amount of Damages. For purposes of determining whether any breach or Damage has occurred or calculating the amount of any such Damage, the representation set forth in the first sentence of Section 3.24(c) (Transactions with Affiliates) will be considered without regard to the “Knowledge” qualification set forth therein; and the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements of the Parties set forth in this Agreement will be considered without regard to any materiality or material adverse effect qualification set forth therein (and, in the case of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.7 and Section 5.11, without regard to any materiality or material adverse effect qualification set forth with respect to the applicable representations and warranties in the Timber SPA); provided, however, that for purposes of determining whether any breach or Damage has occurred, the foregoing clause shall not apply to the definition of “Material Contracts,” Section 3.6(a) (Financial Statements), Section 3.8 (Absence of Certain Changes), Section 3.9 (Tax Matters), and the Seller Fundamental Representations.

(d) Pre-Closing Tax Period. For purposes of Section 8.1(a)(iii), in the case of any Tax period that includes, but does not end on, the Closing Date, the Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be computed as if such taxable period ended as of the Closing, except that in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and measured by the level of any item, the portion allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case

of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period.

(e) Mitigation. The Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all Damages for which such Indemnified Parties are entitled or may be entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII, and no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for any Damages to the extent directly caused by such Indemnified Party’s failure to mitigate such Damages.

Section 8.2. Certain Limitations.

(a) Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The covenants contained in Sections 6.2, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6 and 6.14 shall expire with the consummation of the sale of the Shares and shall not survive the Closing, and none of the Sellers, the Company or the Buyer shall have any Liability whatsoever with respect to any such covenant thereafter. Liability with respect to breaches of the covenants contained in Section 6.1 shall survive until June 15, 2014. Liability with respect to breaches of all other covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement (collectively with the covenants contained in Section 6.1, the “Surviving Covenants”) shall survive the Closing Date, and will expire on the third anniversary of the Closing Date or the date on which the applicable covenant expires in accordance with its terms, whichever is later. With the exception of the Surviving Seller Representations set forth in Section 3.1 (Organization of the Company and its Subsidiaries), Section 3.2 (Authorization), Section 3.3 (Capitalization; Subsidiaries; Title to Timber LLC Common Units), Sections 3.20 and 4.6 (Brokers’ Fees), Section 3.27 (No Company Assets or Liabilities), Section 4.1 (Organization), Section 4.2 (Authorization), Section 4.3 (Title to Shares), Section 4.4(b) (Noncontravention) and Section 4.7(a) (Backstop of Longview GP Representations) which shall survive indefinitely (collectively, the “Seller Fundamental Representations”), and the Surviving Seller Representations set forth in Section 3.9 (Tax Matters), which shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations plus sixty (60) days, the representations and warranties of the Company or any Seller contained in this Agreement or in any agreement or document executed and delivered pursuant hereto shall survive until February 15, 2015. With the exception of the Surviving Buyer Representations set forth in Section 5.1 (Organization), Section 5.2 (Authorization), Section 5.7 (Brokers’ Fees), and 5.11(a) (Backstop of WNR Representations) which shall survive indefinitely (collectively, the “Buyer Fundamental Representations”), the representations and warranties of the Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any agreement or document executed and delivered pursuant hereto shall survive until February 15, 2015. The obligations of each Party to indemnify and defend the other Parties and other Persons pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(i), 8.1(a)(ii), 8.1(b)(i) or 8.1(b)(ii) shall terminate upon the expiration of the applicable survival periods as set forth above; provided that to the extent any claim for indemnification in respect of a breach of any such covenant, representation or warranty is made on or before the date on which such covenant, representation or warranty expires, then such covenant, representation or warranty shall survive until the resolution of such claim. The Sellers’ obligation to indemnify the Buyer Group pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(iii) shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of

limitations plus sixty (60) days; provided that to the extent any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(iii) is made on or before the date on which such indemnification obligation expires, then such indemnification obligation shall survive until the resolution of such claim.

(b) Limitations on Indemnification Liability.

(i) The following limitations shall apply to the indemnification Liability of the Sellers:

A. Except as provided in Section 8.2(b)(i)(D), the Sellers shall have no indemnification Liability to the Buyer Group for Damages pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(ii) resulting from any single or aggregated claims arising out of the same facts, events or circumstances unless the aggregate amount of all Damages resulting from such single or aggregated claims arising out of the same facts, events or circumstances in each case exceeds two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000.00).

B. Except as provided in Section 8.2(b)(i)(D), the Sellers shall have no indemnification Liability to the Buyer Group for Damages pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(ii) unless and until the aggregate amount of all Damages for all claims asserted by the Buyer Group exceeds twenty million dollars ($20,000,000.00) (the “Basket”); provided that if the aggregate amount of all Damages for all claims asserted by the Buyer Group exceeds the Basket, the Buyer Group shall be entitled to indemnification for all such Damages, without regard to the Basket.

C. Except as provided in Section 8.2(b)(i)(D), the indemnification obligations of the Sellers to the Buyer Group shall in all events be limited to an aggregate amount of one hundred and seventy-five million dollars ($175,000,000.00) (the “Cap”).

D. The limitations on indemnification Liability set forth in this Section 8.2(b)(i) with respect to the Sellers shall not apply to any payments by the Sellers to the Buyer Group pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(i) for breach of the Sellers’ Surviving Covenants (excluding Section 6.1), pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(ii) for breach of the Seller Fundamental Representations or Section 3.9 or pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(iii), which shall be limited in the aggregate to an amount equal to the Final Purchase Price.

(ii) The Buyer’s indemnification Liability for Damages for breaches of representations and warranties pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(ii) shall be subject to the same limitations as set forth in Section 8.2(b)(i), except that the limitations on indemnification Liability shall not apply to any payments by the Buyer to the Seller Group pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(ii) for breach of the Buyer Fundamental Representations, which shall be limited in the aggregate to an amount equal to the Final Purchase Price.

(iii) The limitations on indemnification Liability set forth in this Section 8.2(b) shall not apply to claims by any Party based on fraud or willful misconduct.

(c) The Indemnifying Parties shall make any indemnification payments determined to be payable to the Indemnified Parties hereunder without regard to any expectation that the Indemnified Parties will recover insurance proceeds as a result of the matter giving rise to the claim for which indemnification payments are to be made. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover insurance proceeds that may be available to it as a result of the matter giving rise to any indemnification claim of the Indemnified Party; provided that such efforts shall not be a condition precedent to the ability of the Indemnified Party to seek indemnification hereunder. If the Indemnified Party receives any insurance proceeds as a result of the matter giving rise to any indemnification claim of such Indemnified Party prior to the date upon which the Indemnifying Party is given notice of such claim, then the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligation with respect to such claim shall be reduced by the amount of any such insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party (after deducting from the amount of proceeds so received the amount of expenses, if any, incurred by the Indemnified Party in procuring such proceeds). If the Indemnified Party receives any insurance proceeds as a result of the matter giving rise to any indemnification claim against the Indemnifying Party after the Indemnifying Party has paid such indemnification claim to an Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly turn over any such insurance proceeds received to the Indemnifying Party to the extent of the payments made by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party on the claim (after deducting from the amount of proceeds so received the amount of expenses, if any, incurred by the Indemnified Party in procuring such proceeds).

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, any amounts payable pursuant to the indemnification obligations under this Article VIII shall be paid without duplication, and in no event shall any Party be indemnified under different provisions of this Agreement for the same Damages.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Damages as used herein shall not include and in no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for, any incidental, consequential, punitive, indirect or similar damages; it being understood and agreed, however, that an Indemnifying Party shall be liable to an Indemnified Party with respect to (i) any penalties actually incurred by such Indemnified Party and (ii) any incidental, consequential, punitive, indirect or similar damages arising from a Third Party Claim that such Indemnified Party is required to pay to any Person who is not a Party (or an Affiliate thereof).

Section 8.3. Manner of Indemnification Payment.

(a) Any indemnification payments shall be made together with interest accruing thereon from the date such payment is finally determined to be payable to the date of payment at the Applicable Rate.

(b) Any indemnification owing to the Buyer Group pursuant to this Article VIII shall be effected by direct recourse to the Sellers, by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the Sellers to an account designated in writing by the Buyer Group within fifteen (15) days after the determination thereof.

(c) Any indemnification owing to the Seller Group pursuant to this Article VIII shall be effected by direct recourse to the Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the Buyer to an account designated in writing by the Sellers within fifteen (15) days after the determination thereof.

(d) All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price for tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 8.4. Third Party Claims.

(a) Any Party providing indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII is referred to herein as an “Indemnifying Party,” and the Party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII is referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party.” In order for an Indemnified Party to be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII, if any claim or demand is made against such Indemnified Party with respect to any matter, or if such Indemnified Party shall otherwise receive written notice of an assertion of a potential claim, by any Person who is not a Party (or an Affiliate thereof) (each a “Third Party Claim”) which gives rise to a claim for indemnification against an Indemnifying Party under this Agreement, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing and in reasonable detail of the Third Party Claim (including, to the extent known, the factual basis for the Third Party Claim and the amount of the Third Party Claim); provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced as a result thereof (except that the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which the Indemnified Party failed to give such notice); it being understood and agreed that the failure of the Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party prior to settling a Third Party Claim (whether by paying a claim or executing a binding settlement agreement with respect thereto) or the entry of a judgment or issuance of an award with respect to a Third Party Claim shall constitute actual prejudice to the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend against such Third Party Claim. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party will deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received or transmitted by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim.

(b) The Indemnifying Party will have the right to participate in or to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim (in either case at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party will be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense thereof (other than during any period in which the Indemnified Party shall have failed to give written notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above following a reasonable period

of time to provide such notice). Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that, if the Parties reasonably agree that a conflict of interest exists in respect of such claim, such Indemnified Party will have the right to employ separate counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party to represent such Indemnified Party and in that event the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel (but not more than one separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties) shall be paid by such Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party, at its sole cost and expense, may retain separate counsel, and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party will control such defense subject to the limitations set out in this Article VIII.

(c) No Indemnifying Party will consent to any settlement, compromise or discharge (including the consent to entry of any judgment) of any Third Party Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided that, if the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party may recommend and which by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of Damages in connection with such Third Party Claim and releases the Indemnified Party completely from all Liability in connection with such Third Party Claim and provided that such settlement does not impose any material non-monetary restrictions or obligations on the Indemnified Party. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will not admit any Liability, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim (and shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in defending such Third Party Claim) if the Third Party Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than money damages against the Indemnified Party that the Indemnified Party reasonably determines, after conferring with its outside counsel, cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages. If such equitable relief or other relief portion of the Third Party Claim can be so separated from that for money damages, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense of the portion relating to money damages.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will keep the Indemnified Party informed of all material developments relating to or in connection with such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend a Third Party Claim, the Parties will cooperate in the defense thereof (with the Indemnifying Party being responsible for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Indemnified Party (other than for the fees and expenses of its separate counsel unless provided otherwise in Section 8.4(b)) in connection with such cooperation), which cooperation will include the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(e) In the event of payment in full by an Indemnifying Party to any Indemnified Party in connection with any Third Party Claim (each an “Indemnified Claim”), such Indemnifying Party will be subrogated to and will stand in the place of such Indemnified Party as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnified Party may have any right or claim relating to such Indemnified Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Indemnified Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnified Party will cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right or claim.

Section 8.5. Other Claims. Any claim on account of Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement which does not involve a Third Party Claim will be asserted by written notice within the relevant period specified in Section 8.2(a) given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall include a reasonable description of the factual basis for and the amount of such claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days following its receipt of such notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(b), such claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(b), as applicable, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined.

Section 8.6. Exclusive Remedy. Following the Closing, the sole and exclusive monetary remedy for any and all claims arising under, out of, or related to this Agreement, or the sale and purchase of the Company, shall be the rights of indemnification set forth in this Article VIII only, and no Person will have any other entitlement, remedy or recourse, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, including claims under Environmental Laws, it being agreed that all of such other remedies, entitlements and recourse are expressly waived and released by the Parties hereto to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Section 8.7. Availability of Funds.

(a) Following the Closing, each Party agrees that it will maintain sufficient liquidity reasonably necessary to fund such Party’s indemnification obligations under this Article VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Seller agrees that it shall either (i) maintain possession of sufficient proceeds received by such Seller hereunder or other funds or assets or (ii) maintain a binding and enforceable right to receive funds or assets (which may include rights to call capital from limited partners or other investors, rights to claw back distributions from limited partners or other investors, or rights to contribution from the other Sellers), in each case in an amount reasonably necessary to satisfy such Seller’s remaining potential indemnification obligations.

(b) If following the Closing, any Party or any of its successors or assigns, (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of such Party honor the obligations set forth in this Article VIII.

ARTICLE IX

TERMINATION

Section 9.1. Termination Events. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.2, this Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

(b) by either the Sellers or the Buyer by giving written notice to the other Party if the Closing shall not have occurred by the Drop Dead Date (as may be extended pursuant to the definition thereof), unless extended by written agreement of the Sellers and the Buyer; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this subsection (b) shall not be available to any Party who is in material default or material breach of its obligations under this Agreement, or whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement in all material respects has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the Drop Dead Date;

(c) by either the Sellers or the Buyer by giving written notice to the other Party if any Legal Restraint having the effect set forth in Section 7.1(a) shall be in effect and shall have become final and nonappealable; or

(d) by the Buyer in the circumstances contemplated by Section 6.8(c).

Section 9.2. Effect of Termination. In the event of any valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall terminate without any Liability on the part of any Party or its Affiliates in respect thereof, except that (a) the representations of the Parties under Sections 3.20, 4.6 and 5.7 (Brokers’ Fees), the obligations of the Buyer under Section 6.3(b) (Confidentiality), the obligations of the Parties under Section 6.7 (Public Announcements), and the terms of this Section 9.2, Section 9.3, and Article X (Miscellaneous) shall remain in full force and effect, (b) such termination shall not relieve the Buyer of any Liability for fraud or any breach of any material obligation or material covenant contained in this Agreement (including under Article VI) prior to such termination, and (c) such termination shall not relieve any Seller or the Company of any Liability for fraud or any breach of any material obligation or material covenant contained in this Agreement (including under Article VI) prior to such termination.

Section 9.3. Reimbursement of Certain Costs. In the event that the Buyer terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, the Buyer shall reimburse the Company

promptly upon request for the fees and disbursements (i) of the Company’s accountants incurred by the Company in connection with the review of the Unaudited Financial Statements and (ii) of KPMG LLC incurred by the Company in connection with the preparation of the REIT Opinion.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 10.2. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign (by contract, stock sale, operation of Law or otherwise) either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the express prior written consent of the other Parties, and any attempted assignment, without such consent, shall be null and void; provided, that the Buyer may, without the written consent of the other Parties, assign its rights under this Agreement to one or more of its Affiliates or its direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries. No assignment shall relieve the assigning Party of any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 10.3. Notices.

No waiver by any of the Parties of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

Any matter disclosed pursuant to any Section of or Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement or the Disclosure Letter (or any Section of any Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement or the Disclosure Letter) whose relevance or applicability to any representation made elsewhere in this Agreement or to the information called for by any other Section of or Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement or the Disclosure Letter (or any other Section of any Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement or the Disclosure Letter) is reasonably apparent from the text of the disclosure shall be deemed to be an exception to such representations and to be disclosed with respect to all such other Sections

of and Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement and the Disclosure Letter (and all Sections of all Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement and the Disclosure Letter) where it is so apparent from the text of the disclosure, notwithstanding the omission of a reference or cross-reference thereto.

(b) Neither the specification of any dollar amount in any representation or warranty nor the mere inclusion of any item in a Schedule or in the Disclosure Letter as an exception to a representation or warranty shall be deemed an admission by a Party that such item represents an exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item is reasonably likely to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect or a Seller Material Adverse Effect.

If any provision of this Agreement (or any portion thereof) or the application of any such provision (or any portion thereof) to any Person or circumstance shall be declared by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable in any respect, all other provisions of this Agreement (and the remaining portion thereof), or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination that any provision, or the application of any such provision, is invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the greatest extent possible.

Section 10.10. Expenses. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all costs and expenses incident to the process leading to the execution of this Agreement, the negotiations and preparation of this Agreement and the performance by a Party of its obligations hereunder, including the fees and disbursements of counsel, accountants, financial advisors,

experts and consultants employed by the respective Parties in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be borne and paid by the Party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated; provided that any such expenses incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be paid in cash by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries prior to the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date or, to the extent not so paid, shall be deducted from the Final Purchase Price as Company Transaction Expenses in accordance with Article II. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions and covenants of this Section 10.10 will survive the Closing and will remain in force indefinitely.

Section 10.11. Governing Law. This Agreement and all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by the Laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of any Law other than the Law of the State of Delaware.

Section 10.12. Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in King County, Washington in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the Action may be heard and determined in any such court. Each Party also agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Each of the Parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Action so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any such Action by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to its address set forth in Section 10.3, such service to become effective ten (10) days after such mailing. Nothing in this Section 10.12, however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or at equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any Action so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or at equity.

Section 10.13. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF PARTIES IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

Section 10.14. Specific Performance. Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that, in the event of any breach of this Agreement, each nonbreaching Party would be irreparably and immediately harmed and could not be made whole by monetary damages. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties hereto (a) will waive the defense of adequacy of a remedy at law in any action for specific performance and (b) shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, to compel specific performance of this Agreement in any Action instituted in accordance with Section 10.12.

Section 10.15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute

one and the same instrument, and any such counterpart executed and delivered via facsimile transmission or via email with scan or email attachment will be deemed an original for all intents and purposes.

Section 10.16. Time of Essence. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time is of the essence.

Section 10.17. Seller Representative.

(a) Each Seller hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as its agent and representative (the “Representative”) for all purposes under this Agreement. In the event of the death, resignation, discharge or incapacity of the Representative, the Sellers shall promptly designate another individual to act as their representative under this Agreement so that at all times there will be a Representative with the authority provided in this Section 10.17. Such successor Representative shall be designated by the Sellers and Longview GP by an instrument in writing signed by each of the Sellers and Longview GP (or their successors in interest), and such appointment shall become effective as to the successor Representative when (i) such instrument shall have been delivered to the successor Representative and (ii) five (5) days’ prior written notice of such appointment, including a copy of such instrument, shall have been provided to the Buyer.

(b) Each Seller hereby authorizes the Representative, on its behalf and in its name, to:

(i) receive all notices or documents given or to be given to such Seller pursuant hereto or in connection herewith and to receive and accept service of legal process in connection with any suit or proceeding arising under this Agreement. The Representative shall promptly forward a copy of such notice of process to such Seller;

(ii) deliver at the Closing the certificates for the Shares in exchange for such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of the consideration payable with respect to all of the Shares;

(iii) upon confirmation of the receipt of wire transfers, sign and deliver to the Buyer at the Closing a receipt for such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of the consideration and forward such amount to each Seller;

(iv) deliver to the Buyer at the Closing all certificates and documents to be delivered to the Buyer by such Seller pursuant to this Agreement, together with any other certificates and documents executed by such Seller and deposited with the Representative for such purpose;

(v) engage legal counsel, accountants and other advisors for the Sellers and incur such other expenses on behalf of the Sellers in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as the Representative may deem appropriate; and

(vi) take such action on behalf of the Sellers as the Representative may deem appropriate in respect of:

A. waiving any inaccuracies in the representations or warranties of the Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered by the Buyer pursuant hereto;

B. waiving the fulfillment of any of the conditions precedent to the Sellers’ obligations hereunder, except with respect to payment of the consideration due to the Sellers under Section 2.2;

C. taking such other action as the Representative is authorized to take under this Agreement;

D. receiving all documents or certificates and making all determinations, on behalf of the Sellers required under this Agreement;

E. all such other matters as the Representative may deem necessary or appropriate to consummate this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and

F. taking all such action as may be necessary after the Closing Date to carry out any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) The appointment of the Representative hereunder is irrevocable and any action taken by the Representative pursuant to the authority granted in this Section 10.17 shall be effective and absolutely binding on each Seller notwithstanding any contrary action of, or direction from, a Seller, except for actions taken by the Representative that constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence. The death or incapacity of a Seller shall not terminate the prior authority and agency of the Representative.

(d) The Representative may resign at any time by giving written notice to each Seller, and such resignation shall be effective upon the appointment and qualification of a successor pursuant to Section 10.17(a). The Representative may be discharged, and replaced by another natural person to act as his or her successor, by an instrument in writing signed by the Sellers and Longview GP (or their successors in interest); provided that no such discharge or replacement shall be effective until a successor has been appointed pursuant to Section 10.17(a).

(e) In performing any duties as Representative under this Agreement, the Representative shall not incur any liability to any Person, except for liability caused by the Representative’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. Accordingly, the Representative shall not incur any such liability for (i) any action taken or omitted in good faith regarding any questions relating to the duties and responsibilities of the Representative under this Agreement, or (ii) any action taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon any instrument that the Representative shall in good faith believe to be genuine, to have been signed or delivered by a proper person or persons, and to confirm with the provisions of this Agreement. The Sellers, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Representative against,

from and in respect of any liability or loss arising out of or resulting from the performance of his or her duties hereunder or in connection with this Agreement (except for liabilities or losses arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Representative). The Buyer and WNR may rely on the appointment and authority of the Representative hereunder, and shall not be liable to the Sellers or any other Person for dealing with the Representative, until the receipt by the Buyer of notice of the appointment of a successor Representative pursuant to Section 10.17(a).

Section 10.18. Guaranty.

(a) Subject to the conditions and limitations as set forth below, the Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as principal and not as surety, to the Sellers and their successors, the due and punctual payment and the full and complete performance of all monetary obligations, as and when due, (i) of the Buyer to the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, including under Section 2.2, and the Buyer’s specific performance obligations under Section 10.14, as the case may be, in the event that the Closing is not consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) of WNR to Longview GP pursuant to the Timber SPA, including under Section 2.2 of the Timber SPA, and WNR’s specific performance obligations under Section 7.14 of the Timber SPA, as the case may be, in the event that the Closing (as defined in the Timber SPA) is not consummated in accordance with the terms of the Timber SPA (the guaranty obligations under this Section 10.18, collectively, the “Guarantied Obligations”). The obligations of Guarantor under this Section 10.18 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect contemporaneous with the Closing.

(b) The Guarantor guarantees that the Guarantied Obligations will be duly and punctually paid and fully and completely performed, as if the Guarantor were the primary obligor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If for any reason the Buyer or WNR shall fail or be unable duly and punctually to pay or fully and completely to perform any Guarantied Obligation as and when the same shall become due or otherwise required, then the Guarantor shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Timber SPA, forthwith duly and punctually pay or fully and completely perform (or cause to be performed) such Guarantied Obligation (in the case of performance, as if the Guarantor was the primary obligor). The Guarantor further agrees that this Agreement, to the extent it requires the payment of money, constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and is in no way conditioned or contingent upon any attempt to collect from the Buyer or WNR. The Guarantor’s liability under this Agreement shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing irrespective, without limitation, of:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the Timber SPA as a result of the application of any Remedies Exception to the Buyer or WNR, respectively;

(ii) any modification, amendment, consent, extension, forbearance or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Agreement or the Timber SPA that may be agreed to by the Buyer or WNR, respectively;

(iii) any action or inaction by the Sellers or Longview GP under or in respect of this Agreement or the Timber SPA, respectively, any failure, lack of diligence, omission or delay on the part of any Seller or Longview GP to enforce, assert or exercise any right, power or remedy conferred on any Seller or Longview GP in this Agreement or in the Timber SPA, respectively;

(iv) any merger or consolidation of the Buyer, WNR or any other Person into or with any Person, or any sale, lease or transfer of any of the assets of the Buyer, WNR or any other Person to any other Person;

(v) any change in the ownership of the Buyer or WNR; or

(vi) any other occurrence, circumstance, happening or event, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing and whether foreseen or unforeseen, which otherwise might constitute a legal or equitable defense or discharge of the liabilities of a guarantor or surety or which otherwise might limit recourse against the Guarantor or any other Person.

(c) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally waives (i) any and all notices, including promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance of this Agreement and any other notice, with respect to any of the Guarantied Obligations and this Agreement and the Timber SPA, (ii) any presentment, demand, performance, protest, notice of non-payment as the same pertains to the Buyer and WNR, suit or the taking of other action by any Seller or Longview GP against, and any other notice to, the Buyer, WNR, the Guarantor or others with respect to any of the Guarantied Obligations, (iii) any right to require any Seller or Longview GP to proceed against the Buyer or WNR or to exhaust any security held by any Seller or Longview GP or to pursue any other remedy with respect to any of the Guarantied Obligations, (iv) any defense based upon an election of remedies by the Sellers or Longview GP, unless the same would excuse performance by the Buyer or WNR under this Agreement or the Timber SPA, as the case may be, with respect to any of the Guarantied Obligations and (v) any duty of the Sellers or Longview GP to advise the Guarantor of any information known to the Sellers or Longview GP regarding the Buyer or WNR or their respective abilities to perform under this Agreement and the Timber SPA with respect to any of the Guarantied Obligations. Each Seller and Longview GP may at any time and from time to time without notice to or consent of the Guarantor and without impairing or releasing the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, with respect to any of the Guarantied Obligations, (A) agree with the Buyer or WNR, respectively, to make any change in the terms of the applicable Guarantied Obligations, (B) take or fail to take any action of any kind in respect of any security for the Guarantied Obligations, (C) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Buyer, WNR or others, or (D) compromise or subordinate the Guarantied Obligations, including any security therefor. Any other suretyship defenses are hereby waived by the Guarantor with respect to any of the Guarantied Obligations.

(d) The provisions of this Section 10.18 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if (i) at any time and to the extent that any payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the payee thereof upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or similar event of the Buyer, WNR or the Guarantor, all as though such payment had not been made or (ii) the obligations of the

Guarantor under this Section 10.18, with respect to any of the Guarantied Obligations, are released in consideration of a payment of money or transfer of property by the Buyer, WNR or any other Person and to the extent that such payment, transfer or grant is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the recipient thereof upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or similar event of the Buyer, WNR, the Guarantor or such other Person, all as though such payment, transfer or grant had not been made. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Longview GP shall be a third party beneficiary under this Agreement for purposes of enforcing this Section 10.18.

Section 10.19. No Implied Representations. It is the explicit intent of each Party hereto that none of the Parties is making any representation or warranty whatsoever, express or implied, beyond those expressly set forth in Article III, Article IV and Article V of this Agreement, Article III and Article IV of the Timber SPA or any other provision of this Agreement or the Timber SPA, including any implied warranty or representation as to the value, condition, merchantability or suitability as to any of the properties or assets of the Company.
