WHEREAS, immediately prior to the REB Transfer Time, WRECO will incur the New Debt and will pay the Payment Amount to Weyerhaeuser NR Company, a Washington corporation and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Weyerhaeuser (“WNR”), in repayment of all or a portion of the Intercompany Debt outstanding at such time;

WHEREAS, at the REB Transfer Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, if and as necessary, Weyerhaeuser will cause (a) the Transferred REB Assets to be transferred to and the Assumed REB Liabilities to be assumed by WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries and (b) the Transferred Excluded Assets to be transferred to and the Assumed Excluded Liabilities to be assumed by Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries (other than WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries), in each case pursuant to the REB Transfers;

SECTION 1.01. New Debt; Repayment of Intercompany Debt. (a) Prior to the REB Transfer Time, WRECO shall enter into a definitive agreement or agreements (the “New Debt Agreements”) providing for indebtedness (the “New Debt”) in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $800,000,000 (the “New Debt Amount”) on the terms and conditions set forth in the New Debt Commitment Letter, or if different from the terms and conditions set forth in the New Debt Commitment Letter, on terms and conditions reasonably agreed to by Parent and Weyerhaeuser.

(b) Immediately prior to the REB Transfer Time, (i) WRECO shall incur the New Debt and receive the net proceeds thereof and (ii) WRECO shall pay to WNR the Payment Amount, in immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by Weyerhaeuser, in repayment of all or a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Intercompany Debt outstanding at such time. In the event that the aggregate principal amount of the Intercompany Debt outstanding immediately prior to the REB Transfer Time exceeds the Payment Amount, then Weyerhaeuser shall cause WNR to contribute to the capital of WRECO any remaining principal balance of the Intercompany Debt, effective as of immediately prior to the REB Transfer Time, and after such contribution WRECO shall have no further Liability in respect of the Intercompany Debt, except as contemplated by Section 1.01(c). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of the Intercompany Debt outstanding immediately prior to the REB Transfer Time is less than the Payment Amount, then Weyerhaeuser shall cause WRECO to distribute to WNR as a dividend the amount by which the Payment Amount exceeds the aggregate principal amount of the Intercompany Debt.

(c) Immediately prior to the REB Transfer Time, WRECO shall pay to WNR an amount in immediately available funds (the “Accrued Interest Amount”) equal to all unpaid interest on the Intercompany Debt that accrued between the date hereof and the REB Transfer Time, before taking into account any repayment or capitalization thereof pursuant to Section 1.01(b).

SECTION 1.05. Consents and Governmental Approvals.

Notwithstanding such deferral of the assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of the Delayed Transfer Assets, any Delayed Transfer Asset will still be considered an REB Asset or Excluded Asset, as the case may be, and from the REB Transfer Time until the consummation of assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of such Delayed Transfer Asset, Weyerhaeuser or the applicable Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary (other than WRECO or any WRECO Subsidiary) shall hold any Transferred REB Assets that are Delayed Transfer Assets in trust for the use and benefit, insofar as reasonably practicable, of WRECO or the applicable WRECO Subsidiary at the sole expense of WRECO or the applicable WRECO Subsidiary, and WRECO or the applicable WRECO Subsidiary shall hold any Transferred Excluded Assets that are Delayed Transfer Assets in trust for the use and benefit, insofar as reasonably practicable, of

Weyerhaeuser or the applicable Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary (other than WRECO or any WRECO Subsidiary) at the sole expense of Weyerhaeuser or the applicable Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary. Weyerhaeuser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and implement arrangements to place WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries and Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries (other than WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries), as the case may be, insofar as reasonably practicable, in the same position as if the Delayed Transfer Assets had been assigned, transferred, conveyed and delivered and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Delayed Transfer Assets, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such asset, inure from and after the REB Transfer Time to WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries, in the case of Transferred REB Assets that are Delayed Transfer Assets, or to Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries (other than WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries), in the case of Transferred Excluded Assets that are Delayed Transfer Assets. If and when the legal impediments, Consents or Governmental Approvals, the presence or the absence of which caused the deferral of the assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of any Delayed Transfer Assets pursuant to this Section 1.05(a), are removed, obtained or made, as the case may be, the assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of the applicable Delayed Transfer Asset shall be promptly effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other applicable Transaction Documents, without the payment of additional consideration. On the Closing Date, Weyerhaeuser shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver to Parent (for information purposes only) a schedule setting forth all material Delayed Transfer Assets existing as of the Closing Date.

(b) Subject to Section 1.05(c), to the extent that the assumption of any Assumed REB Liability by WRECO or a WRECO Subsidiary or of any Assumed Excluded Liability by Weyerhaeuser or a Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary (other than WRECO or any WRECO Subsidiary) in connection with the REB Transfers would constitute a violation of applicable Law, or would require a Consent or Governmental Approval that has not been obtained or made prior to the REB Transfer Time, then the assumption of such Assumed REB Liability or Assumed Excluded Liability (collectively, the “Delayed Transfer Liabilities”) will automatically be deferred, and no such assumption will occur, until all legal impediments are removed or such Consents or Governmental Approvals have been obtained or made with respect to the applicable Delayed Transfer Liability. Notwithstanding such deferral of the assumption of the Delayed Transfer Liabilities, any Delayed Transfer Liability will still be considered an REB Liability or Excluded Liability, as the case may be, and from the REB Transfer Time until the consummation of the assumption of such Delayed Transfer Liability, Weyerhaeuser or the applicable Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary (other than WRECO or any WRECO Subsidiary) shall hold any Assumed REB Liabilities that are Delayed Transfer Liabilities in trust for the use and benefit, insofar as reasonably practicable, of WRECO or the applicable WRECO Subsidiary at the sole expense of WRECO or the applicable WRECO Subsidiary, and WRECO or the applicable WRECO Subsidiary shall hold any Assumed Excluded Liabilities that are Delayed Transfer Liabilities in trust for the use and benefit, insofar as reasonably practicable, of Weyerhaeuser or the applicable Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary (other than WRECO or any WRECO Subsidiary) at the sole expense of Weyerhaeuser or the applicable Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary. Weyerhaeuser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and implement arrangements to place WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries and Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries (other than WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries), as the case may be, insofar as reasonably practicable, in

the same position as if the Delayed Transfer Liabilities had been assumed and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Delayed Transfer Liabilities inure from and after the REB Transfer Time to WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries, in the case of Assumed REB Liabilities that are Delayed Transfer Liabilities, or to Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries (other than WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries), in the case of Assumed Excluded Liabilities that are Delayed Transfer Liabilities. If and when the legal impediments, Consents or Governmental Approvals, the presence or the absence of which caused the deferral of the assumption of any Delayed Transfer Assets pursuant to this Section 1.05(b), are removed, obtained or made, as the case may be, the assumption of the applicable Delayed Transfer Liability shall be promptly effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other applicable Transaction Documents, without the payment of additional consideration. On the Closing Date, Weyerhaeuser shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver to Parent (for information purposes only) a schedule setting forth all material Delayed Transfer Liabilities existing as of the Closing Date.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision in Section 1.05(a) or Section 1.05(b) to the contrary, Weyerhaeuser or WRECO may elect at any time after the Effective Time to require the immediate assignment, transfer, assumption, conveyance or delivery of any Delayed Transfer Asset or any Delayed Transfer Liability notwithstanding any requirement that an immaterial Consent or an immaterial Governmental Approval be obtained; provided, however, that (i) if WRECO so elects to require the immediate assignment, transfer, assumption, conveyance or delivery of any such Delayed Transfer Assets or such Delayed Transfer Liabilities, any Liability arising from such assignment, transfer, assumption, conveyance or delivery will be deemed to be REB Liabilities, (ii) if Weyerhaeuser so elects to require the immediate assignment, transfer, assumption, conveyance or delivery of any such Delayed Transfer Assets or such Delayed Transfer Liabilities, any Liability arising from such assignment, transfer, assumption, conveyance or delivery will be deemed to be Excluded Liabilities and (iii) if WRECO and Weyerhaeuser jointly agree to the immediate assignment, transfer, assumption, conveyance or delivery of any such Delayed Transfer Assets or such Delayed Transfer Liabilities, any Liability arising from such assignment, transfer, assumption, conveyance or delivery will be shared equally between WRECO and Weyerhaeuser and, notwithstanding any provision in Section 12.04 to the contrary, the defense of any Third Party Claim relating thereto shall be jointly managed by WRECO and Weyerhaeuser.

(d) For a period of three years after the REB Transfer Time, subject to Section 1.05(f), (i) each of Weyerhaeuser and WRECO shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to remove all legal impediments to and obtain all required Consents and Governmental Approvals for the assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of the Transferred REB Assets and the Transferred Excluded Assets as contemplated by Section 1.02 as promptly as practicable and (ii) each of Weyerhaeuser and WRECO shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to remove all legal impediments to and obtain all required Consents and Governmental Approvals for the assumption of the Assumed REB Liabilities and the Assumed Excluded Liabilities as contemplated by Section 1.02 as promptly as practicable.

(f) Neither Weyerhaeuser nor WRECO (or any of their respective Subsidiaries) shall be obligated, in connection with Section 1.05(d) or 1.05(e), to expend money unless the necessary funds are advanced by the other party, other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys’ fees and recording or similar fees, all of which shall be promptly reimbursed by the other party.

As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Agent to, determine the number of whole shares and fractional shares of Parent Common Stock allocable to each Eligible Holder, aggregate all such fractional shares into whole shares of Parent Common Stock and sell such whole shares on behalf of each such Eligible Holder either in open market transactions or otherwise, in each case at then prevailing trading prices, and cause to be distributed to each such Eligible Holder such Eligible Holder’s share of the proceeds of such sale, after making appropriate deductions of the amount required to be withheld for tax purposes and after deducting an amount equal to all brokerage charges,

commissions and transfer taxes attributed to such sale. For purposes of this Section 4.02(c), all fractional shares to which a single Eligible Holder would be entitled shall be aggregated, and calculations shall be rounded to three decimal places.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in WRECO Common Shares. As of the Effective Time, all WRECO Common Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and any holder of WRECO Common Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration and any cash in respect of fractional shares in accordance with the terms of this Article IV, without interest. The Merger Consideration, together with any cash in respect of fractional shares, issued in accordance with the terms of this Article IV upon conversion of any WRECO Common Shares shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such WRECO Common Shares. After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of WRECO of WRECO Common Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(e) Distributions with Respect to Undistributed Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time with respect to Parent Common Stock shall be paid with respect to any shares of Parent Common Stock that are not able to be distributed by the Agent promptly after the Effective Time, whether due to a legal impediment to such distribution or otherwise. Subject to applicable Law, following the distribution of any such previously undistributed shares of Parent Common Stock, there shall be paid to the Eligible Holder of such shares of Parent Common Stock, without interest, (i) at the time of the distribution, the amount of cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such Eligible Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 4.02(c) and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to the distribution of such whole shares of Parent Common Stock and a payment date subsequent to the distribution of such whole shares of Parent Common Stock. In no event shall the Agent have the right to vote any shares of Parent Common Stock held by the Agent.

(f) No Liability. None of the parties hereto or the Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any shares of Parent Common Stock, any dividends or distributions with respect thereto or proceeds from a sale pursuant to Section 4.02(c) that are delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any claim for the Merger Consideration, dividends or distributions with respect thereto or proceeds from a sale pursuant to Section 4.02(c) has not been made prior to five years after the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which the Merger Consideration, dividends or distributions with respect thereto or proceeds from a sale pursuant to Section 4.02(c) would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity), any such shares, dividends, distributions or proceeds shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g) Withholding Rights. Parent shall be entitled, and may instruct the Agent, to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payments under the Code or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. Any withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Persons otherwise entitled thereto.

Closing Adjustment

SECTION 5.01. Estimated Adjustment Amount. No later than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Weyerhaeuser shall prepare and deliver to Parent a statement setting forth Weyerhaeuser’s good faith estimate of the Adjustment Amount (such estimate, the “Estimated Adjustment Amount”). If the Estimated Adjustment Amount is a positive amount, Parent shall, at the Closing, pay to WNR the Estimated Adjustment Amount. If the Estimated Adjustment Amount is a negative amount, Weyerhaeuser shall cause WNR to, at the Closing, pay to Parent the absolute value of the Estimated Adjustment Amount.

SECTION 5.02. Closing Adjustment Statement. Within 45 days after the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and deliver to Weyerhaeuser a statement (the “Closing Adjustment Statement”) setting forth Parent’s calculation of the Adjustment Amount.

SECTION 5.03. Objections; Resolution of Disputes. The Closing Adjustment Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties on the 30th day following delivery thereof, unless Weyerhaeuser gives written notice of its disagreement with the Closing Adjustment Statement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to Parent prior to such date. Any Notice of Disagreement shall (i) specify in reasonable detail the nature of any disagreement so asserted, (ii) only include disagreements based on mathematical errors or based on the Adjustment Amount not being calculated in accordance with Section 5.05 and (iii) be accompanied by a certificate of an executive officer of Weyerhaeuser certifying that the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement are consistent with the requirements of Section 5.05. If a Notice of Disagreement is received by Parent in a timely manner, then the Closing Adjustment Statement (as revised in accordance with this sentence) shall become final and binding upon the parties on the earlier of (i) the date Weyerhaeuser and Parent resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement and (ii) the date any disputed matters are finally resolved in writing by the Accounting Firm. During the 30-day period following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement, Weyerhaeuser and Parent shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement. At the end of such 30-day period, Weyerhaeuser and Parent shall submit to an independent accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”) for arbitration any and all matters that remain in dispute and were properly included in the Notice of Disagreement. The dispute resolution by the Accounting Firm shall be an arbitration under the Federal Arbitration Act and relevant Laws of the State of New York. The Accounting Firm shall be Deloitte LLP (or an Affiliate thereof) or, if such firm is unable or unwilling to act, such other nationally recognized independent public accounting firm as shall be agreed upon by the parties

hereto in writing. Weyerhaeuser and Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to render a decision in writing resolving the matters submitted to the Accounting Firm within 30 days of receipt of the submission. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be final and binding on the parties, and judgment may be entered upon such determination in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced. The cost of any arbitration (including the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm and reasonable attorney fees and expenses of the parties) pursuant to this Section 5.03 shall be borne by Parent and Weyerhaeuser in inverse proportion as they may prevail on matters resolved by the Accounting Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Accounting Firm at the time the determination of the Accounting Firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. Other than the fees and expenses referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, the fees and disbursements of Weyerhaeuser’s independent auditors shall be borne by Weyerhaeuser and the fees and disbursements of Parent’s independent auditors shall be borne by Parent.

SECTION 5.04. Post-Closing Payment. If the Adjustment Amount exceeds the Estimated Adjustment Amount, Parent shall, within 15 Business Days after the Closing Adjustment Statement becomes final and binding on the parties pursuant to Section 5.03, pay to WNR the amount by which the Adjustment Amount exceeds the Estimated Adjustment Amount. If the Adjustment Amount is less than the Estimated Adjustment Amount, Weyerhaeuser shall cause WNR to, within 15 Business Days after the Closing Adjustment Statement becomes final and binding on the parties pursuant to Section 5.03, pay to Parent the amount by which the Estimated Adjustment Amount exceeds the Adjustment Amount. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 5.04 shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated in writing at least two Business Days prior to such payment by the party entitled to receive such payment, plus interest thereon at a rate of interest per annum equal to the rate of interest from time to time announced publicly by JPMorgan Chase Bank as its prime rate, calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed divided by 365, from the Closing Date to the date of payment.

(c) The TRI Pointe Homes, LLC 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the “Parent 401(k) Plan”) has been the subject of determination letters from the IRS with respect to all Tax Law changes with respect to which the IRS has provided a current determination letter to the effect that the Parent 401(k) Plan is qualified and exempt from Federal income Taxes under Sections 401(a) and 501(a), respectively, of the Code, and no such determination letter has been revoked nor, to the knowledge of Parent, has revocation been threatened, nor has the Parent 401(k) Plan been amended since the date of its most recent determination letter or application therefor in any respect that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect its qualification.

Each Parent Welfare Plan that is a “group health plan”, as such term is defined in Section 5000(b)(1) of the Code, complies with the applicable requirements of Section 4980B(f) of the Code.

(g) No Parent Pension Plan, other than any Parent Pension Plan that is a “multiemployer plan” within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA (a “Parent Multiemployer Pension Plan”), had, as of the respective last annual valuation date for each such Parent Pension Plan, an “unfunded benefit liability”, as such term is defined in Section 4001(a)(18) of ERISA, based on actuarial assumptions that have been furnished to Weyerhaeuser and WRECO, except for instances that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. None of the Parent Pension Plans has an “accumulated funding deficiency” as such term is defined in Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code, whether or not waived, except for instances that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect. None of Parent or any Parent Subsidiary, and, to the

knowledge of Parent, no Parent Employee and no trustee, fiduciary or administrator of any Parent Benefit Plan or trust thereunder, has engaged in a “prohibited transaction”, as such term is defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or any other breach of fiduciary responsibility that would reasonably be expected to subject Parent, any Parent Subsidiary or any Parent Employee to the tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed by such Section 4975 or to any liability under Section 502(i) or 502(l) of ERISA, except to the extent that any such taxes or penalties, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

Neither Parent nor any Parent Subsidiary has incurred a “complete withdrawal” or a “partial withdrawal”, as such terms are defined in Sections 4203 and 4205, respectively, of ERISA, since the effective date of such Sections 4203 and 4205 with respect to any Parent Multiemployer Pension Plan.

(h) The execution and delivery of each Transaction Document do not, and the consummation of the Transactions and compliance with the terms hereof and thereof will not (i) entitle any Parent Employee to severance, termination, change in control or similar pay and benefits, (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting or trigger any payment or funding (through a grantor trust or otherwise) of compensation or benefits under, increase the amount payable under or trigger any other material obligation pursuant to, any Parent Benefit Plan or (iii) result in any breach or violation of, or a default under, any Parent Benefit Plan, in each case, except for any payments or benefits required by applicable Law.

(i) No amount or other entitlement that could be received (whether in cash or property or the vesting of property) as a result of the Transactions by any officer, director, manager or employee of Parent or any Parent Subsidiary who is a “disqualified individual”, as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, under any Parent Benefit Plan or other compensation arrangement would be characterized as an “excess parachute payment”, as such term is defined in Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code, and no such disqualified individual is entitled to receive any additional payment (including any tax gross up or other payment) from Parent, any Parent Subsidiary or any other Person in the event that the excise tax required by Section 4999(a) of the Code is imposed on such disqualified individual.

(e) Following the Distribution Date, for so long as such information is retained by a party or any of its Subsidiaries, upon reasonable written notice, each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to afford or cause to be afforded to the other party and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to the personnel, properties, systems, Contracts and Records (including financial records but, in the case of Weyerhaeuser, excluding Records that constitute Excluded Assets) relating to the Real Estate Business for any reasonable business purpose, including in respect of litigation, insurance matters, financial reporting of such party and its Affiliates, including by, as reasonably requested by the other party, providing copies to the other party of any of the foregoing systems, Contracts and Records (including financial records but, in the case of Weyerhaeuser, excluding Records that constitute Excluded Assets) related to the Real Estate Business; provided, however, that the party requesting such access agrees to reimburse the other party promptly for all reasonable out-of-pocket

costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party may withhold (A) any documents (or portions thereof) or information that is subject to the terms of a confidentiality agreement with a third party, (B) any document (or portions thereof) or information which may constitute privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product and the transfer of which, or the provision of access to which, as reasonably determined by such party’s counsel, constitutes a waiver of any such privilege and (C) any document (or portion thereof) or information relating to pricing or other matters that are highly sensitive if the exchange of such document (or portion thereof) or information, as determined by such party’s counsel, might reasonably result in antitrust difficulties for such party or any of its Affiliates. If any information is withheld by a party pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, such party shall inform the other party as to the general nature of what is being withheld. Weyerhaeuser may redact such portions of any Records that do not relate to the REB Assets, the REB Liabilities or the Real Estate Business.

(f) All information exchanged pursuant to this Section 9.03 (or, in the case of Section 9.03(b), retained by Weyerhaeuser) shall be held by the parties as Confidential Information, as such term is defined in the Mutual Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of August 16, 2013, between Weyerhaeuser and Parent (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), and shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.

SECTION 9.04. Commercially Reasonable Efforts. (a) From the date hereof through the Effective Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts (unless, with respect to any action, another standard of performance is expressly provided for herein), prior to, at and after the REB Transfer Time, to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary or advisable under this Agreement and applicable Law to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Transactions, including (i) obtaining all necessary or advisable Governmental Approvals and making all necessary or advisable registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Entities, if any) and taking all reasonable steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Entity, (ii) obtaining all necessary or advisable Consents, (iii) defending against any Actions challenging this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the consummation of the Transactions, including seeking to have any stay or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Governmental Entity vacated or reversed and (iv) executing and delivering any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Transactions and to fully carry out the purposes of the Transaction Documents, other than, in the case of each of clauses (i) through (iv), with respect to registrations, filings and other Governmental Approvals relating to Review Laws, which are the subject of Section 9.04(b). In connection with and without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall (A) take all action necessary to ensure that no state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation is or becomes applicable to any Transaction or this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (B) if any state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation becomes applicable to any Transaction or this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Merger and the other Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each of the parties hereto shall keep the other parties hereto reasonably informed of its progress in obtaining any necessary or advisable Consents and Governmental Approvals pursuant to this Section 9.04(a).

(b) Each of the parties hereto shall (i) file, or cause to be filed, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date hereof all notification and report forms that may be required under the HSR Act or other antitrust, competition or pre-merger notification, trade regulation Law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction (collectively, “Review Laws”) with respect to the Transactions, (ii) supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested by any Governmental Entity pursuant to the HSR Act or any other applicable Review Law and (iii) use its best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all other things necessary or advisable to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act and any other applicable Review Laws and to obtain all Governmental Approvals under any Review Laws that may be required by any Governmental Entity with competent jurisdiction, so as to enable the parties hereto to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Transactions. Each of the parties hereto shall use its best efforts to cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission with a Governmental Entity by any Person relating to any Review Laws in connection with the Transactions and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry by or before a Governmental Entity relating to any Review Laws in connection with the Transactions, and each of the parties hereto shall keep the other parties reasonably informed of its progress in obtaining any necessary or advisable Governmental Approvals relating to Review Laws in connection with the Transactions. Subject to applicable Law, and to the extent reasonably practicable, each of the parties hereto shall consult with the other parties hereto in advance with respect to any written materials submitted to any Governmental Entity, and, to the extent permitted by the applicable Governmental Entity and to the extent reasonably practicable, shall give the other parties hereto the opportunity to attend and participate in any meetings and conferences with Governmental Entities, in each case in connection with the matters contemplated by this Section 9.04(b). None of the parties hereto shall voluntarily extend any waiting period under the HSR Act or any other applicable Review Law or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Entity to delay or not to consummate the Transactions except with the prior written consent of the other parties (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which reasonableness shall be determined in light of each party’s obligation to use its best efforts to take all actions necessary or advisable to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act and any other applicable Review Laws and to obtain all Governmental Approvals under any Review Laws, so as to enable the parties hereto to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Transactions).

(c) Nothing in Section 9.04(a) or 9.04(b) shall require any of the parties hereto or any of their respective Subsidiaries to (i) pay any consideration to any third party from whom any Consent or Governmental Approval is requested, other than filing fees paid to Governmental Entities, or (ii) dispose of any of its assets or limit its freedom of action with respect to any of its businesses, or consent to any disposition of any assets or limits on its freedom of action with respect to any of its businesses, or commit or agree to any of the foregoing in order to obtain any Governmental Approval or to remove any impediments to the Transactions relating to the HSR Act or other applicable Review Laws or to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any

injunction, temporary restraining order or other order in any suit or proceeding relating to Review Laws, other than dispositions, limitations, consents or commitments that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Real Estate Business and the Parent Business, taken as a whole.

SECTION 9.05. Rights Under Weyerhaeuser Insurance Policies. (a) Weyerhaeuser shall, and shall cause the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries to, keep all Weyerhaeuser Insurance Policies currently maintained with respect to the REB Assets and the Real Estate Business, or suitable replacements therefor, in full force and effect through the close of business on the Distribution Date.

(b) Each of Parent and WRECO acknowledges that all Weyerhaeuser Insurance Policies are not part of the Real Estate Business and are Excluded Assets. Subject to Section 9.05(d), neither WRECO nor any WRECO Subsidiary will have any rights under the Weyerhaeuser Insurance Policies from and after the REB Transfer Time.

(c) From the date hereof through the Effective Time, each of the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate to obtain for WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries any insurance policies reasonably determined by Parent to be necessary to replace the coverage currently provided by the Weyerhaeuser Insurance Policies with respect to the REB Assets and the Real Estate Business for incidents arising prior to the Distribution Date. All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 9.05(c) shall be promptly reimbursed by Parent.

(d) In the event that any REB Asset or the Real Estate Business suffers or has suffered any damage, destruction or other casualty loss or any REB Liability that is insured under the Weyerhaeuser Insurance Policies and arises or has arisen prior to the Distribution Date, Weyerhaeuser shall, or shall cause the appropriate Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary to, surrender to WRECO after the Distribution Date any insurance proceeds received by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary under any Weyerhaeuser Insurance Policy with respect to such damage, destruction or casualty loss, less (i) any amount of such insurance proceeds applied by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary to the physical restoration of such asset, (ii) the amount of all applicable deductibles and co-payment provisions and all payment, reinsurance or reimbursement obligations of Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary in respect thereof and (iii) the amount of Weyerhaeuser’s and each Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, if any, incurred in connection with the foregoing. Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries may, at any time, without liability or obligation to WRECO, amend, commute, terminate, buy out, extinguish liability under or otherwise modify any Weyerhaeuser Insurance Policy. Neither Weyerhaeuser nor any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary shall bear any Liability for the failure of an insurer to pay any claim under any Weyerhaeuser Insurance Policy.

SECTION 9.06. No Use of Retained Names. WRECO shall, and shall cause the WRECO Subsidiaries to, promptly, and in any event (a) within 60 days after the Distribution Date, (a) make all necessary filings and take all other necessary actions to discontinue any references to the Retained Names, (b) within 60 days after the Distribution Date, revise print

advertising, product labeling and all other information or other materials, including any Internet or other electronic communications vehicles, to delete all references to the Retained Names and (c) within 60 days after the Distribution Date, change signage and stationery and otherwise discontinue use of the Retained Names. In no event shall WRECO or any WRECO Subsidiary use any Retained Names after the Distribution in any manner or for any purpose different from the use of such Retained Names by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary during the 90-day period preceding the Distribution Date. After the Distribution Date, WRECO shall, and shall cause the WRECO Subsidiaries to, file applications to amend or terminate any certificate of assumed name or d/b/a filings, within 60 days after Parent or any of its Affiliates becomes aware of such assumed name or d/b/a filing, so as to eliminate the right of WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries to use the Retained Names.

SECTION 9.07. Weyerhaeuser Options, Weyerhaeuser PSUs and Weyerhaeuser RSUs. (a) As soon as practicable following the date hereof, the Board of Directors of Weyerhaeuser (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Weyerhaeuser Stock Plans) and the Board of Directors of WRECO shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions as may be required to effect the following:

(i) prior to the Distribution, each REB Employee who holds a Weyerhaeuser equity award that is described in clause (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) below (each, a “Weyerhaeuser Equity Award”) shall surrender all of such REB Employee’s Weyerhaeuser Equity Awards in exchange for substituted WRECO equity awards as set forth in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) below, which shall, as of the Effective Time, become Parent Equity Awards as specified in this Section 9.07 (any REB Employee who holds a Weyerhaeuser Equity Award, a “Rollover Employee”);

(ii) immediately prior to the Distribution, each outstanding option to acquire Weyerhaeuser Common Shares granted under the Weyerhaeuser Stock Plans held by a Rollover Employee (whether vested or unvested) (each, a “Weyerhaeuser Option”) shall be surrendered to Weyerhaeuser in exchange for an option granted by WRECO to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Weyerhaeuser Option, a number of WRECO Common Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share), determined by multiplying the number of Weyerhaeuser Common Shares subject to such Weyerhaeuser Option by the Option Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per WRECO Common Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (A) the per share exercise price for the Weyerhaeuser Common Shares otherwise purchasable pursuant to such Weyerhaeuser Option divided by (B) the Option Exchange Ratio (each, as so granted, a “Substituted WRECO Option”);

(iii) any Weyerhaeuser Option that is intended to be an “incentive stock option”, as defined in Section 422 of the Code, that may not be treated in the manner described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 9.07(a) and that remains an incentive stock option shall be adjusted in accordance with the requirements of Section 424 of the Code in a manner that most closely produces the economic results obtained with respect to other Substituted WRECO Options (it being understood that it is the intention of the parties hereto that Substituted WRECO Options so granted by WRECO qualify, to the fullest extent

permissible, as “incentive stock options”, as defined in Section 422 of the Code, to the extent that such Weyerhaeuser Options qualified as “incentive stock options” immediately prior to the Distribution);

(iv) immediately prior to the Distribution, each outstanding performance share unit with respect to Weyerhaeuser Common Shares granted under the Weyerhaeuser Stock Plans held by a Rollover Employee (each, a “Weyerhaeuser PSU”) shall be surrendered to Weyerhaeuser in exchange for a grant of time-vesting restricted share units by WRECO, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Weyerhaeuser PSU (except that such grant shall not be subject to any performance-based vesting conditions or requirements), with respect to the number of WRECO Common Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share), determined by multiplying the number of Weyerhaeuser Common Shares subject to such Weyerhaeuser PSU (which number shall be determined (A) without regard to any performance-based vesting criteria applicable to such Weyerhaeuser PSU relating to Weyerhaeuser’s relative total shareholder return and (B) by assuming that any other performance-based vesting criteria applicable to such Weyerhaeuser PSU were satisfied (1) at target level immediately prior to the Distribution, in the event the Distribution occurs prior to the determination of such performance by the Board of Directors of Weyerhaeuser (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Weyerhaeuser Stock Plans) with respect to such awards or (2) based on actual performance, in the event the Distribution occurs on or following such determination of such performance with respect to such awards) by the Option Exchange Ratio (each, as so granted, a “Substituted WRECO PSU”); and

(v) immediately prior to the Distribution, each outstanding grant of restricted stock units with respect to Weyerhaeuser Common Shares granted under the Weyerhaeuser Stock Plans held by a Rollover Employee (each, a “Weyerhaeuser RSU”) shall be surrendered to Weyerhaeuser in exchange for a grant of time-vesting restricted stock units by WRECO, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Weyerhaeuser RSU, with respect to the number of WRECO Common Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share), determined by multiplying the number of Weyerhaeuser Common Shares subject to such Weyerhaeuser RSU by the Option Exchange Ratio (each, as so granted, a “Substituted WRECO RSU”).

(b) A holder of a Substituted WRECO Option may not exercise such Substituted WRECO Option until the Effective Time.

(c) At or prior to the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of Parent and the Board of Directors of WRECO shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions as may be required to effect the following:

(i) as of the Effective Time, each outstanding Substituted WRECO Option shall cease to represent a right to acquire WRECO Common Shares and shall be converted into a right to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Substituted WRECO Option prior to the Effective Time, that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the number of WRECO Common Shares subject to such Substituted WRECO Option (each Substituted WRECO Option, once converted into an option in respect of Parent Common Stock, a “Substituted Parent Option”);

(ii) as of the Effective Time, each outstanding grant of Substituted WRECO PSUs shall be converted into a grant of time-vesting restricted stock units, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Substituted WRECO PSU prior to the Effective Time, with respect to that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the number of WRECO Common Shares subject to such Substituted WRECO PSU (each Substituted WRECO PSU grant, once converted into a grant in respect of Parent Common Stock, a “Substituted Parent PSU”); and

(iii) as of the Effective Time, each outstanding grant of Substituted WRECO RSUs shall be converted into a grant of time-vesting restricted stock units, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Substituted WRECO RSU prior to the Effective Time, with respect to that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the number of WRECO Common Shares subject to such Substituted WRECO RSU (each Substituted WRECO RSU grant, once converted into a grant in respect of Parent Common Stock, a “Substituted Parent RSU”).

(d) As of the Effective Time, Parent shall assume the Substituted Parent Options, Substituted Parent PSUs and Substituted Parent RSUs (collectively, the “Parent Equity Awards”), with the result that all obligations of WRECO with respect to Substituted WRECO Options, Substituted WRECO PSUs and Substituted WRECO RSUs outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be obligations of Parent as of the Effective Time.

(e) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver to the holders of Substituted Parent Options, Substituted Parent PSUs and Substituted Parent RSUs appropriate notices setting forth such holders’ rights with respect to, and instruments evidencing the grant or assumption of, such Substituted Parent Options, Substituted Parent PSUs and Substituted Parent RSUs. Such Substituted Parent Options, Substituted Parent PSUs and Substituted Parent RSUs, shall, except as provided in Section 9.07(a)(iv) with respect to Substituted WRECO PSUs, continue in effect on the same terms and conditions as the terms and conditions as were applicable under the Weyerhaeuser Stock Plans.

SECTION 9.08. Benefit Plans. (a) Prior Service Credit. From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, give to each WRECO Employee full credit for all purposes (including for purposes of eligibility to participate, early retirement eligibility and early retirement subsidies, vesting and, except with respect to defined benefit pension plans, benefit accrual) under any Employee Benefit Plan provided, maintained or contributed to by Parent or any Parent Subsidiary for such WRECO Employee’s service with Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries, and with any predecessor employer, to the same extent recognized by Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Distribution.

(b) Continuation of Compensation and Benefits. For the one-year period immediately following the Effective Time (the “Continuation Period”), Parent shall, and shall

cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, provide to each WRECO Employee (i) base salary and bonus and incentive compensation opportunities that are no less favorable than those provided to such WRECO Employee as of immediately prior to the Distribution and (ii) other employee benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the employee benefits provided to such WRECO Employee as of immediately prior to the Distribution.

(c) WRECO Benefit Plans and Weyerhaeuser REB Benefit Plans. Effective on or prior to the Distribution Date, (i) WRECO shall, or shall cause the applicable WRECO Subsidiaries to, assume all Liabilities with respect to each WRECO Benefit Plan and (ii) except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each WRECO Employee shall cease active participation in each Weyerhaeuser REB Benefit Plan. In accordance with and without limiting the generality of Section 9.08(b), from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, administer each WRECO Benefit Plan in all material respects in accordance with its terms. Nothing in this Section 9.08(c) shall limit the ability of Parent, the Parent Subsidiaries, WRECO or the WRECO Subsidiaries from amending or terminating any WRECO Benefit Plan at any time, in accordance with its terms.

(d) Cash Incentive Bonus Plans. Without limiting the generality of Section 9.08(c), effective on or prior to the Distribution Date, WRECO shall, or shall cause the applicable WRECO Subsidiaries to, assume all Liabilities with respect to the WRECO Employees under each Weyerhaeuser Employee Benefit Plan that is a cash-based bonus or incentive compensation plan set forth in Section 9.08(d) of the Weyerhaeuser Disclosure Letter (collectively, the “WRECO Employee Incentive Plans”). From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, maintain the WRECO Employee Incentive Plans pursuant to their terms as in effect as of the Effective Time and make payments to the WRECO Employees at the times prescribed thereunder with respect to the WRECO fiscal year in which the Effective Time occurs (and, to the extent such payments have not been made as of the Effective Time, with respect to the WRECO fiscal year prior to the WRECO fiscal year in which the Effective Time occurs).

(e) Retention Arrangements. Without limiting the generality of Section 9.08(c), effective on or prior to the Distribution Date, WRECO shall, or shall cause the applicable WRECO Subsidiaries to, assume all Liabilities with respect to the WRECO Employees under each Weyerhaeuser Employee Benefit Plan (i) that is a retention plan set forth in Section 9.08(e)(i) of the Weyerhaeuser Disclosure Letter, together with all individual awards and agreements with any WRECO Employee with respect thereto, or (ii) that is an individual retention letter agreement with any WRECO Employee materially consistent with the form of retention letter agreement set forth in Section 9.08(e)(ii) of the Weyerhaeuser Disclosure Letter, including, in each case, any such awards or agreements entered into after the date hereof not in contravention of this Agreement (the plans, awards and agreements in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “WRECO Employee Retention Arrangements”). From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, maintain the WRECO Employee Retention Arrangements pursuant to their terms as in effect as of the Effective Time and make payments to the WRECO Employees at the times prescribed thereunder.

(f) Certain Welfare Benefits Matters.

(i) Without limiting the generality of Section 9.08(b), as of immediately following the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, have in effect Employee Benefit Plans that are “employee welfare benefit plans” within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA (collectively, “New Welfare Plans”) that will provide welfare benefits to WRECO Employees (and any dependents and beneficiaries thereof). Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, (A) waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods and actively-at-work requirements with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to the WRECO Employees and their dependents and beneficiaries under the New Welfare Plans to the extent waived under the applicable corresponding Employee Benefit Plan sponsored or maintained by Weyerhaeuser or the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Distribution (each, a “Weyerhaeuser Welfare Plan”) and (B) provide each WRECO Employee and his or her eligible dependents and beneficiaries with credit under New Welfare Plans for any co-payments and deductibles paid under corresponding Weyerhaeuser Welfare Plans prior to the Effective Time in the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs for purposes of satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements (and any annual and lifetime maximums) under any New Welfare Plans in which such WRECO Employee participates.

(ii) Effective on or prior to the Distribution Date, WRECO shall, or shall cause the applicable WRECO Subsidiaries to, assume all Liabilities of Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries to WRECO Employees and their eligible dependents in respect of health insurance under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, Sections 601 et seq. and Sections 701 et seq. of ERISA, Section 4980B and Sections 9801 et seq. of the Code and applicable state or similar Law.

(iii) From and after the Distribution Date, Weyerhaeuser shall retain all Liabilities in accordance with the Weyerhaeuser Welfare Plans for payment of all medical, dental, vision, health, non-occupational short-term disability benefit and long-term disability benefit claims (collectively, “Welfare Benefit Claims”) incurred under such plans prior to the Distribution Date with respect to any WRECO Employee (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof) and WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries shall not assume any Liability with respect to such Welfare Benefit Claims, except that WRECO shall assume Liability for such Welfare Benefit Claims to the extent required by applicable Law or to the extent such Welfare Benefit Claims (A) are incurred under any WRECO Benefit Plan or (B) are insured under an insurance policy in respect of which (1) WRECO or any WRECO Subsidiary (or, as of the Effective Time, Parent or any Parent Subsidiary) becomes the beneficiary or (2) a WRECO Employee (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof) is the beneficiary and such insurance policy transfers with such WRECO Employee pursuant to applicable Law to WRECO or any WRECO Subsidiary as of the Distribution Date or to Parent or any Parent Subsidiary as of the Effective Time. WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries shall be liable for payment of all Welfare Benefit Claims incurred on or after the Distribution Date with respect to any WRECO Employee

(or any dependent or beneficiary thereof) and, from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, cause all such Welfare Benefit Claims to be assumed by and administered under the New Welfare Plans. For purposes of the foregoing, a claim shall be deemed to be incurred as follows: (i) life, accidental death and dismemberment, and business travel accident insurance benefits and long-term disability benefits, upon the death, disability or accident giving rise to such benefits, (ii) health, dental and prescription drug benefits (including in respect of any hospital confinement), upon provision of such services, materials or supplies, and (iii) non-occupational short-term disability benefits, upon the initiation of any claim for such benefit payment.

(iv) From and after the Distribution Date, Weyerhaeuser shall retain Liability for all claims for payment of all claims for workers compensation benefits that are incurred prior to the Distribution Date with respect to any WRECO Employee, except that WRECO shall assume Liability for such claims to the extent required by applicable Law or to the extent such claims relate to any WRECO Benefit Plan. WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries shall be liable for payment of all claims for workers compensation benefits that are incurred on or after the Distribution Date with respect to any WRECO Employee. A claim for workers compensation benefits shall be deemed to be incurred when the event giving rise to the claim (the “Workers Compensation Event”) occurs. If the Workers Compensation Event occurs over a period both preceding and following the Distribution Date, the claim shall be the joint Liability of Weyerhaeuser, on the one hand, and WRECO (and, effective as of the Effective Time, Parent), on the other hand, and shall be equitably apportioned between such parties based upon the relative periods of time that the Workers Compensation Event transpired preceding and following the Distribution Date.

(g) Tax-Qualified Savings/401(k) Plan.

(i) Effective not later than the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, have in effect one or more defined contribution plans that include a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code (and a related trust exempt from tax under Section 501(a) of the Code) (as applicable, the “New 401(k) Plan”). Each WRECO Employee participating in a defined contribution plan that includes a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code sponsored by Weyerhaeuser or the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Distribution (each, a “Weyerhaeuser 401(k) Plan”) shall become a participant in the corresponding New 401(k) Plan as of the Effective Time and each WRECO Employee shall be eligible to participate in a New 401(k) Plan as of the Effective Time.

(ii) Parent shall, or shall cause the applicable Parent Subsidiaries to, cause the New 401(k) Plan to accept a “direct rollover” to such New 401(k) Plan of the account balances of each WRECO Employee (including promissory notes evidencing all outstanding loans) under a Weyerhaeuser 401(k) Plan in which such WRECO Employee participates, if such direct rollover is elected in accordance with applicable Law and the terms of the Weyerhaeuser 401(k) Plan by such WRECO Employee.

(h) Accrued Vacation. Effective on or prior to the Distribution Date, WRECO shall, or shall cause the applicable WRECO Subsidiaries to, assume Liability for all vacation days (regular, supplemental or banked) accrued or earned but not yet taken by each WRECO Employee as of the Distribution Date (the “Accrued Vacation Days”). In the event that a WRECO Employee is entitled under applicable Law or any policy of Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary to be paid for any Accrued Vacation Days on or after the Distribution Date, (i) WRECO or the applicable WRECO Subsidiary or, solely to the extent required by applicable Law (as reasonably determined by Weyerhaeuser), Weyerhaeuser or the applicable Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary, shall pay any required amounts to such WRECO Employee, (ii) such amounts, whether or not paid by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary, shall be REB Liabilities and (iii) to the extent any such amounts are paid by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary, Weyerhaeuser or the applicable Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.03(a). Effective as of the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, honor all the Accrued Vacation Days for which payout is not made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(i) Flexible Spending Account Plans. Effective not later than the Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, have in effect flexible spending arrangements under a cafeteria plan qualifying under Section 125 of the Code (the “New Flexible Spending Account Plan”), and from and after the Effective Time, Parent shall be liable for all Liabilities and account balances of the Weyerhaeuser Flexible Spending Account Plan maintained in the United States with respect to WRECO Employees and their dependents (the “Weyerhaeuser Flexible Spending Account Plan”). From and after the Effective Time, all claims for reimbursement which have not been paid as of the Distribution Date and credited under the New Flexible Spending Account Plan shall be paid pursuant to and under the terms of the New Flexible Spending Account Plan. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, (i) Weyerhaeuser shall, or shall cause the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries to, transfer to Parent or the applicable Parent Subsidiary an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of the aggregate contributions to the Weyerhaeuser Flexible Spending Account Plan made by WRECO Employees prior to the Effective Time for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs over the aggregate reimbursement payouts made to WRECO Employees prior to the Effective Time for such year from such plan and (ii) Parent shall, or shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries to, cause such amounts to be credited to each such WRECO Employee’s accounts under the New Flexible Spending Account Plan. In connection with such transfer, Parent shall deem that such employees’ deferral elections made under the Weyerhaeuser Flexible Spending Account Plan for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs shall continue in effect under the New Flexible Spending Account Plan for the remainder of the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs. If the aggregate reimbursement payouts made to WRECO Employees from the Weyerhaeuser Flexible Spending Account Plan prior to the Effective Time for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs exceed the aggregate accumulated contributions made by the WRECO Employees to such plan prior to the Effective Time for such plan year, Parent shall make a payment equal to the value of such excess to Weyerhaeuser as soon as practicable following Parent’s receipt of additional contributions from the applicable WRECO Employee.

(j) No Benefit Plan Transfers. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, other than as a result of (i) direct rollovers from the Weyerhaeuser 401(k) Plan to the New 401(k) Plan, to the extent such direct rollover is elected in accordance with applicable Law and the terms of the Weyerhaeuser 401(k) Plan by the applicable WRECO Employee, (ii) transfers from the Weyerhaeuser Flexible Spending Account Plan to the New Flexible Spending Account Plan or (iii) the transfer of the assets of or relating to any WRECO Benefit Plan pursuant to the REB Transfers, there shall be no transfer of assets from any Employee Benefit Plan sponsored or maintained by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary to any Employee Benefit Plan sponsored or maintained by Parent or any Parent Subsidiaries.

(k) Severance.

SECTION 9.09. Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification; Liability Insurance.

Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries and direct their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions and negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Parent Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to obtaining the Parent Stockholder Approval, in response to an unsolicited written Parent Acquisition Proposal, if the Board of Directors of Parent determines, after consultation with its financial advisor and outside counsel, that such Parent Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Parent Superior Proposal, Parent may (and may authorize and permit the Parent Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives to), subject to compliance with Section 9.15(c), (1) furnish information with respect to Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries to the Person making such Parent Acquisition Proposal (and its Representatives) pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement containing confidentiality provisions substantially similar to those set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement and (2) participate in discussions and negotiations with the Person making such Parent Acquisition Proposal (and its Representatives) regarding such Parent Acquisition Proposal. In the event that, pursuant to clause (1) of the foregoing sentence, Parent or any of the Parent Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives furnishes to a Person making a Parent Acquisition Proposal (or its Representatives) any non-public information with respect to Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries that has not previously been furnished to Weyerhaeuser or its Representatives, Parent shall furnish all such information to Weyerhaeuser substantially concurrently with the time it is provided to such Person.

(b) Parent agrees that neither its Board of Directors nor any committee thereof shall (i) (A) withhold or withdraw (or modify in a manner adverse to Weyerhaeuser or WRECO), or publicly propose to withhold or withdraw (or modify in a manner adverse to the other party), the recommendation by the Board of Directors of Parent to the holders of Parent Common Stock that they give the Parent Stockholder Approval or (B) approve or adopt, or recommend the approval or adoption of, or publicly propose to approve or adopt or recommend, any Parent Acquisition Proposal (any action described in this clause (i) being referred to as an “Adverse Recommendation Change”) or (ii) approve or recommend, or publicly propose to approve or recommend, or cause or permit Parent or any Parent Subsidiaries to execute or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement related to any Parent Acquisition Proposal, other than any confidentiality agreement entered into in accordance with Section 9.15(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, subject to compliance with the following sentence, at any time prior to obtaining the Parent Stockholder Approval the Board of Directors of Parent may make an Adverse Recommendation Change following a determination by the Board of Directors of Parent that a Parent Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Parent Superior Proposal. At least five Business Days prior to the making of any Adverse Recommendation Change by the Board of Directors of Parent pursuant to the foregoing sentence, Parent shall provide Weyerhaeuser and WRECO written notice (a “Notice of Parent Superior Proposal”) advising Weyerhaeuser and WRECO that Parent’s Board of Directors

intends to take such action and specifying the reasons therefor, including the material terms and conditions of the Parent Superior Proposal that is the basis of the proposed action by the Board of Directors of Parent (it being understood and agreed that (A) any amendment to the financial terms of such Parent Superior Proposal shall require a new Notice of Parent Superior Proposal and a new five Business Day period and (B) in determining whether to make an Adverse Recommendation Change, the Board of Directors of Parent shall take into account any changes to the financial terms of this Agreement proposed by Weyerhaeuser or WRECO in response to a Notice of Parent Superior Proposal or otherwise); provided, however, that if a Parent Superior Proposal is received less than five Business Days prior to the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, then the five Business Day period contemplated above shall be shortened such that it will expire as of the close of business on the day preceding the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, unless the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting is postponed.

(c) In addition to the obligations of Parent set forth in Sections 9.15(a) and 9.15(b), Parent shall, as promptly as practicable, advise Weyerhaeuser and WRECO orally and in writing of the receipt of any Parent Acquisition Proposal after the date hereof, the material terms and conditions of any such Parent Acquisition Proposal and the identity of the Person making any such Parent Acquisition Proposal. Parent shall keep Weyerhaeuser and WRECO reasonably informed of any material developments with respect to any such Parent Acquisition Proposal (including any material changes thereto).

(d) Nothing contained in this Section 9.15 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit Parent from (i) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to its stockholders if its Board of Directors (after consultation with its outside counsel) determines that failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, it being understood, however, that this clause (ii) shall not be deemed to permit its Board of Directors to make an Adverse Recommendation Change except, in each case, to the extent permitted by Section 9.15(b).

SECTION 9.16. Covenants of Weyerhaeuser Regarding Non-Solicitation. Weyerhaeuser shall not, and shall not authorize or permit any of the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage, or take any other action to knowingly facilitate, the making of any proposal that constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to an REB Acquisition Proposal, (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any confidential information with respect to, any REB Acquisition Proposal or (iii) execute or enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement related to any REB Acquisition Proposal. Weyerhaeuser shall, and shall cause the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries and direct their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions and negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any REB Acquisition Proposal.

SECTION 9.17. Intended Tax Treatment; Tax Matters. (a) For United States Federal income Tax purposes, it is intended that (i) the WRECO Spin and the Distribution will each qualify as tax-free under Section 355 of the Code, (ii) the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, (iii) with respect to the Merger, this Agreement will constitute a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code and (iv) with respect to the Merger, WRECO, Parent and Merger Sub will each be a party to the reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code (the qualifications and other matters referred to in clauses (i) through (iv), collectively, the “Intended Tax Treatment”). The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Intended Tax Treatment to be obtained, including (1) refraining from any action that such party knows is reasonably likely to prevent the Intended Tax Treatment, (2) executing such amendments to this Agreement as may be reasonably required in order to obtain the Intended Tax Treatment (it being understood that no party will be required to agree to any such amendment that it determines in good faith materially adversely affects the value of the Transactions to such party or its stockholders) and (3) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the opinions referred to in Sections 10.02(e) and 10.03(f), including by executing customary letters of representation.

(b) Weyerhaeuser and WRECO, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand, shall cooperate with each other in obtaining, and shall use all their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, the Weyerhaeuser Merger Tax Opinion and the Parent Merger Tax Opinion in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Weyerhaeuser and Parent, respectively.

Weyerhaeuser, WRECO and Parent shall cooperate to obtain any necessary release of such Guarantees issued by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Weyerhaeuser and Parent. In the event that any such Guarantees are not replaced at the Closing, Parent shall reimburse Weyerhaeuser for any interest or other expenses paid by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary on or after the Closing Date with respect thereto.

SECTION 9.19. Sole Shareholder Approvals. Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, (a) Parent, as the sole shareholder of Merger Sub, shall execute and deliver a written consent approving this Agreement and the Plan of Merger and (b) Weyerhaeuser shall cause WNR, as the sole shareholder of WRECO, to execute and deliver a written consent approving this Agreement and the Plan of Merger, in each case in accordance with the WBCA.

SECTION 9.20. Timing of Transfer and Assumption of Transferred Excluded Assets and Assumed Excluded Liabilities. (a) Subject to Section 9.20(b), Weyerhaeuser may, in

its sole discretion, elect to cause (i) WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries to transfer some or all of the Transferred Excluded Assets to Weyerhaeuser or a Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary (other than WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries) or to assume, or cause a Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary (other than WRECO and the WRECO Subsidiaries) to assume, some or all of the Assumed Excluded Liabilities, in each case at any time prior to close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the REB Transfer Time and (ii) any such transfer to be effected as a distribution by WRECO to WNR or as a repayment by WRECO of a portion of the Intercompany Debt outstanding at such time.

(b) It is the intent of the parties hereto that, subject to the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the transfer of the Transferred Excluded Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Excluded Liabilities shall be structured in such a way that such transfers and assumptions shall neither benefit nor burden Parent and the Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 9.21. Governance Matters. (a) Each of Weyerhaeuser, WRECO, Parent and Merger Sub shall take all actions necessary to cause the matters set forth on Exhibit D hereto to occur on the Closing Date.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall confer with Weyerhaeuser regarding Parent’s selection of individuals to serve as the executive officers and senior management personnel of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, including the Surviving Corporation, from and after the Closing Date.

For the purposes of this Section 9.23, the placement of “help wanted” advertisements, postings on internet job sites and searches by employment search companies that are not specifically targeting employees of the other party or its Subsidiaries shall not result in a violation of this Section 9.23.

SECTION 9.24. Enforcement of Confidentiality Agreements. For a period of two years following the Effective Time, Weyerhaeuser shall not, and shall not permit any

Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary to, waive or amend any confidentiality agreement between Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary, on the one hand, and any third Person (other than Parent and its Affiliates), on the other hand, to the extent such waiver or amendment adversely affects the confidentiality of information related to the Real Estate Business. At Parent’s written request, Weyerhaeuser shall, and shall cause each Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary to, use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce in accordance with its terms any confidentiality agreement between Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary, on the one hand, and any third Person (other than Parent and its Affiliates), on the other hand, to the extent such agreement protects the confidentiality of information related to the Real Estate Business.

SECTION 11.01. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Effective Time:

(a) by mutual written consent of each party hereto;

(b) by either Weyerhaeuser or Parent:

(i) if the Effective Time has not occurred on or before the date that is 12 months after the date hereof, unless the failure to consummate the Transactions is the result of a material breach of any Transaction Document by the party seeking to terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that the passage of such period shall be tolled for any part thereof during which any party shall be subject to a non-final Judgment restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions;

(ii) if the Parent Stockholder Approval has not been obtained by reason of the failure to obtain the required vote at the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting;

(iii) if any court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity shall have issued a Judgment that permanently restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the Transactions, and any such Judgment shall have become final and non-appealable; or

(iv) if any Governmental Entity shall have enacted a Law that prohibits or makes illegal the consummation of the Transactions; or

(i) if Parent or Merger Sub breaches or fails to perform in any respect any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in any Transaction Document, which breach or failure to perform (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 10.02(a) or 10.02(b) and (B) cannot be or has not been cured within 30 days after the giving of written notice to Parent of such breach, unless Weyerhaeuser or WRECO is then in material breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Transaction Document; or

(d) by Parent, if Weyerhaeuser or WRECO breaches or fails to perform in any respect any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in any Transaction Document, which breach or failure to perform (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 10.03(a) or 10.03(b) and (B) cannot be or has not been cured within 30 days after the giving of written notice to Weyerhaeuser of such breach, unless Parent or Merger Sub is then in material breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Transaction Document.

SECTION 11.02. Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 11.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of Weyerhaeuser, WRECO, Parent and Merger Sub, other than Sections 6.19, 7.17, 9.03(e), 9.10, 9.14(b), 11.03 and 11.04, this Section 11.02 and Article XIII, which provisions shall survive such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 11.04, a termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any party hereto from any liability or damages resulting from the willful and material breach by such party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

SECTION 11.03. Termination Fees. (a) If:

(i) Weyerhaeuser terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.01(c)(ii); or

(ii) either Parent or Weyerhaeuser terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.01(b)(ii) or pursuant to Section 11.01(b)(i) in circumstances where the Parent Stockholder Approval has not been obtained at the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, and (A) (1) in the case of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.01(b)(i), a Parent Acquisition Proposal has been made prior to the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting and not withdrawn more than five days prior to the vote of the holders of Parent Common Stock or (2) in the case of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.01(b)(ii), a Parent Acquisition Proposal has been made that is either publicly disclosed or otherwise becomes publicly known prior to or at the time of the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting and that is not withdrawn more than five days prior to the vote of the holders of Parent Common Stock and (B) Parent enters into an agreement with respect to any Parent Acquisition Proposal, or any Parent Acquisition Proposal is consummated, after the date hereof and prior to the expiration of 12 months following termination of this Agreement,

then in any such case Parent shall pay to Weyerhaeuser $20,000,000, less any amounts paid by Parent to Weyerhaeuser pursuant to Section 11.03(b)) (the “Parent Termination Fee”) in immediately available funds to an account designated by Weyerhaeuser. Such payment shall be due (x) in the case of a termination specified in clause (i), within five Business Days after written notice of termination by Weyerhaeuser or (y) in the case of a termination specified in clause (ii), at or prior to the earlier of the entering into of the agreement and the consummation of the transaction referred to therein. Parent shall not be obligated to make more than one payment pursuant to this Section 11.03(a).

(b) If a Parent Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Section 11.03(a) or if this Agreement is terminated by either Parent or Weyerhaeuser pursuant to Section 11.01(b)(ii) or pursuant to Section 11.01(b)(i) in circumstances where the Parent Stockholder Approval has not been obtained at the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, then Parent shall reimburse Weyerhaeuser for its out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions and not otherwise reimbursed pursuant to Section 9.14(b). Such reimbursement shall be paid (i) concurrently with payment of the Parent Termination Fee, if a Parent Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Section 11.03(a) or (ii) if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.01(b)(ii) or pursuant to Section 11.01(b)(i) in circumstances where the Parent Stockholder Approval has not been obtained at the Parent Stockholders’ Meeting, prior to the termination of this Agreement by Parent or within five Business Days after written notice of termination by Weyerhaeuser, as the case may be. Parent shall not be obligated to pay any amounts in excess of $10,000,000 pursuant to this Section 11.03(b).

SECTION 11.04. Effect of Termination Fee Payment. The parties hereto agree that if Parent pays to Weyerhaeuser the amounts required by Sections 11.03(a) and 11.03(b) as a result of the occurrence of any of the events referenced in Section 11.03(a) or 11.03(b), Weyerhaeuser and WRECO shall have no other remedy for monetary damages for any breach of this Agreement by Parent or Merger Sub, except as set forth in Section 9.14(b).

SECTION 11.05. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time. Any amendment to this Agreement shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

SECTION 11.06. Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto may, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

SECTION 11.07. Procedure for Termination, Amendment, Extension or Waiver. A termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.01, an amendment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.05 or an extension or waiver pursuant to Section 11.06 shall, in order to be effective, require in the case of any of the parties hereto, action by its Board of Directors or the duly authorized designee of its Board of Directors. After the Parent Stockholder Approval has been obtained, any amendment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.05 that by Law requires further approval by the stockholders of Parent shall be effective only with the approval of such stockholders. After the consummation of the Distribution, any amendment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.05 that by Law requires further approval by the shareholders of WRECO shall be effective only with the approval of such shareholders.

SECTION 12.04. Indemnification Procedures. (a) Procedures Relating to Indemnification of Third Party Claims. If any party (the “Indemnified Party”) receives written notice of the commencement of any Action or the assertion of any claim by a third party or the imposition of any penalty or assessment for which indemnity may be sought under Section 12.02 or 12.03 (a “Third Party Claim”), and such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity pursuant to this Article XII, the Indemnified Party shall promptly provide the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) with written notice of such Third Party Claim, stating the nature, basis and the amount thereof, to the extent known, along with copies of the relevant documents evidencing such Third Party Claim and the basis for indemnification sought. Failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability on account of this indemnification, except if and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. So long as the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance herewith, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall actively pursue such defense in good faith, (ii) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost

and expense (except as contemplated by the following sentence) and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, (iii) the Indemnified Party shall not file any papers or consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party and (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall not (A) admit to any wrongdoing or (B) consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim to the extent such judgment or settlement provides for (x) relief other than money damages or (y) money damages if the Indemnifying Party has not acknowledged in writing that it shall be responsible for such money damages, in the case each of clauses (A) and (B), without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In the event that the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party reasonably agree that a conflict of interest exists in respect of a Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain separate counsel selected by the Indemnified Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified Party in the defense of the Third Party Claim, and the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim if the Third Party Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief other than monetary 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 monetary damages. Each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize Losses from Third Party Claims and shall act in good faith in responding to, defending against, settling or otherwise dealing with such claims. The parties shall also cooperate in any such defense and give each other reasonable access to all information relevant thereto. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense, such Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder for any settlement entered into or any judgment that was consented to by the Indemnified Party without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent.

(b) Procedures for Non-Third Party Claims. The Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing promptly of its discovery of any matter that does not involve a Third Party Claim giving rise to the claim of indemnity pursuant hereto. The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability on account of this indemnification, except only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days from receipt of any such notice to give notice of dispute of the claim to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any claim for indemnity by the Indemnified Party and in otherwise resolving such matters. Such assistance and cooperation shall include providing reasonable access to and copies of information, records and documents relating to such matters, furnishing employees to assist in the investigation, defense and resolution of such matters and providing legal and business assistance with respect to such matters.

SECTION 12.05. Indemnification as Sole and Exclusive Remedy. Subject to Section 12.07(a), Weyerhaeuser, WRECO and Parent acknowledge and agree that, following the consummation of the Distribution, Weyerhaeuser’s, WRECO’s, and Parent’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating to Article I or II, the Real Estate Business, the

REB Assets, the Excluded Assets, the REB Liabilities, the Excluded Liabilities, the REB Transfers, the WRECO Spin or the Distribution shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article XII. In furtherance of the foregoing and subject to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article XII, Weyerhaeuser, WRECO and Parent hereby waive, from and after the Distribution Date, any and all rights, claims and causes of action Weyerhaeuser or any other Weyerhaeuser Indemnitee, on the one hand, and Parent, WRECO or any other WRECO Indemnitee, on the other hand, may have against Parent, WRECO or any of their respective Affiliates or, respectively, Weyerhaeuser or any of its Affiliates, or their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law or otherwise (including with respect to environmental matters generally and any matters under Environmental Laws). This Section 12.05 will not apply to any breach following the Distribution Date of any other Section of this Agreement or the Tax Sharing Agreement.

SECTION 12.06. Calculation of Indemnity Payments. (a) The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Article XII shall be net of any amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Loss.

(b) An Indemnifying Party is authorized, in connection with payment of any Loss for which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Party under this Article XII, to set off and apply any and all payments due to such Indemnifying Party under Article V or this Article XII against any of and all of the obligations of the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party under this Article XII. The rights of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 12.06(b) are in addition (but without duplication) to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which such Indemnifying Party may have.

SECTION 12.07. Additional Matters. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, indemnification for Tax matters shall be governed solely and exclusively by the terms, provisions and procedures of the Tax Sharing Agreement and not by this Article XII.

(b) In no event shall an Indemnifying Party be liable for special, punitive, exemplary, incidental, consequential or indirect damages, or lost profits, whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, other Law or otherwise, except to the extent that such damages are actually payable by the Indemnified Party in connection with a Third Party Claim.

(b) Stockholder shall not commit or agree to take any action inconsistent with any provision of Section 3.01(a).

SECTION 3.02. Irrevocable Proxy. Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to, and appoints, Weyerhaeuser, and any individual designated in writing by Weyerhaeuser, and each of them individually, as Stockholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place and stead of Stockholder, to vote the Subject Shares, or grant a consent or approval in respect of the Subject Shares, in a manner consistent with Section 3.01.

SECTION 3.03. Transfer and Other Restrictions. Except pursuant to this Agreement, Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise dispose of (including by gift), hedge or utilize a derivative to transfer the economic interest in (collectively, “Transfer”), or enter into any Contract, option or other arrangement or understanding (including any profit sharing agreement) with respect to the Transfer of, any Subject Shares to any Person, (ii) enter into any voting arrangement, whether by proxy, voting agreement or otherwise, with respect to any Subject Shares that conflicts or is inconsistent with this Agreement, (iii) take any other action that would make any representation or warranty of Stockholder contained herein untrue or incorrect or would restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of Stockholder’s obligations hereunder or (iv) commit or agree to take any of the foregoing actions. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict Stockholder’s right to Transfer any shares of Parent Common Stock owned by Stockholder that do not constitute Subject Shares.

SECTION 3.04. Non-Solicitation. Stockholder shall not, and shall not authorize or permit any of Guarantor or any of their respective controlled Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage, or take any other action to knowingly facilitate, the making of any proposal that constitutes or is reasonably likely to lead to a Parent Acquisition Proposal or (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any confidential information with respect to, any Parent Acquisition Proposal. Stockholder shall, and shall cause Guarantor and their respective controlled Affiliates and direct their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated all existing discussions and negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Parent Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to obtaining the Parent Stockholder Approval, Stockholder may (and may authorize and permit Guarantor and their respective controlled Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives to) furnish such information to, and participate in such discussions and negotiations with, a Person (other than Stockholder, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates) making a Parent Acquisition Proposal (and its Representatives) to the same extent that Parent is permitted to do so pursuant to Section 9.15 of the Transaction Agreement. In the event that, pursuant to the foregoing sentence, Stockholder, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives furnishes to a Person making a Parent Acquisition Proposal (or its Representatives) any non-public information that has not previously been furnished to Weyerhaeuser or its Representatives, Stockholder shall furnish all such information to Weyerhaeuser substantially concurrently with the time it is provided to such Person. Stockholder shall, as promptly as practicable, advise Weyerhaeuser orally and in writing of the receipt of any Parent Acquisition Proposal after the date hereof, the material terms and conditions of any such Parent Acquisition Proposal and the identity of the Person making any such Parent Acquisition Proposal. Stockholder shall keep Weyerhaeuser reasonably informed of any material developments with respect to any such Parent Acquisition Proposal (including any material changes thereto).

SECTION 4.07. Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, provided that if jurisdiction is not then available in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, then any federal court located in the State of Delaware, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

The parties hereto may, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, waive compliance with any of the terms or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights hereunder or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

SECTION 4.09. Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (i) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, provided that if jurisdiction is not then available in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, then any federal court located in the State of Delaware, in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware and (iv) waives any right to trial by jury with respect to any action related to or arising out of this Agreement.

In the event of any such termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of Weyerhaeuser, Stockholder or Guarantor, other than (A) this Article IV, which provisions shall survive such termination and (B) liability for any breach of this Agreement prior to such termination.

The period of duration of this corporation shall be perpetual.

ARTICLE III.

The purpose for which this corporation is organized is to engage in any form of financial, real estate, recreation, service or other business not contrary to law.

ARTICLE IV.

1. The aggregate number of shares which this corporation is authorized to issue is 110,000,000 shares, consisting of 10,000,000 preferred shares having a par value of $0.04 per share and 100,000,000 common shares having a par value of $4.00 per share. Shares redeemed, purchased or otherwise reacquired, or surrendered to this corporation on conversion, shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of the class of which they were a part when initially issued and may be reissued as part of the same or a different series of the same class of which they were a part when initially issued, unless, as part of the action of the Board of Directors taken to create any series, the Board of Directors restricts the right of reissuance, in which case such restricted right will be operative.

2. The Board of Directors is expressly vested with authority to divide the preferred shares into series, each of which shall be so designated as to distinguish the shares thereof from the shares of all other series and classes. All preferred shares shall be identical except in each case as to the following relative rights and preferences, as to which the Board of Directors may fix and determine variations among the different series of each class:

(a) The rate of dividend;

(b) Whether shares may be redeemed and, if so, the redemption price and the terms and conditions of redemption;

(d) Sinking fund provisions, if any, for the redemption or purchase of shares;

(e) The terms and conditions, if any, on which shares may be converted; and

(f) The voting rights, if any.

3. The preferences, limitations and relative rights of the preferred shares of each series and the common shares are as follows:

(a) Out of the funds of this corporation legally available for payment of dividends, the holders of the preferred shares of each series shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, cumulative dividends at the rate determined by the Board of Directors for such series, and no more. Dividends on the preferred shares shall accrue on a daily basis from such date as may be fixed by the Board of Directors for any series. Unless dividends at the rate prescribed for each series of preferred shares shall have been declared and paid or set apart for payment in full on all outstanding preferred shares for all past dividend periods and the current dividend period, no dividends shall be declared or paid upon any class of shares ranking as to dividends subordinate to the preferred shares and no sum or sums shall be set aside for the redemption of preferred shares of any series (including any sinking fund payment therefor) or for the purchase, redemption (including any sinking fund payment therefor) or other acquisition for value of any class or series of shares ranking as to dividends or assets on a parity with or subordinate to any such series of preferred shares. Accrued and unpaid dividends on the preferred shares shall not bear interest.

(b) Out of any funds of this corporation legally available for payment of dividends and remaining after full cumulative dividends upon all series of preferred shares then outstanding shall have been paid or set apart for payment for all past dividend periods and the current dividend period, then, and not otherwise, the Board of Directors may declare and pay or set apart for payment dividends on the common shares, and the holders of preferred shares shall not be entitled to share therein.

(c) In the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation of this corporation, before any distribution of the assets shall be made to the holders of any class of shares ranking as to assets subordinate to the preferred shares, the holders of the preferred shares of each series shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of this corporation available for distribution to its shareholders the sum of (i) the amount per share determined by the Board of Directors as provided in paragraph 2(c) of this Article IV, and (ii) the amount per share equal to all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, such sum constituting the “preferential amount” for the preferred shares. If, in the event of such liquidation, the assets of this corporation available for distribution to its shareholders shall be insufficient to permit full payment to the holders of the preferred shares of each series of their respective preferential amounts, then such assets shall be distributed ratably among such holders in proportion to their respective preferential amounts. If, in the event of such liquidation, the holders of the preferred shares of each series shall have received

B-2

full payment of their respective preferential amounts, the holders of the common shares shall be entitled, to the exclusion of the holders of the preferred shares of each series, to share ratably in all remaining assets of the corporation available for distribution to shareholders. None of the consolidation or merger of this corporation with or into any other corporation or corporations, the sale or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of this corporation or the merger or consolidation of any other corporation into and with this corporation shall be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation.

(d) The holders of preferred shares shall have no voting rights except as provided by Washington statutes or by or pursuant to this Article IV.

(e) Subject to any applicable provision of law or this Article IV, this corporation shall have the right to purchase, or otherwise reacquire, at public or private sale or otherwise any shares of any class, except that no preferred shares shall be purchased unless dividends on all preferred shares have been declared and paid or set apart for payment in full for all past dividend periods.

(f) Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of common shares of this corporation shall be entitled to one vote per common share on all matters to be voted on by this corporation’s shareholders. Subject to any rights granted to preferred shares issued pursuant to this Article IV, all common shares of this corporation shall have all of the rights ordinarily associated with common shares.

4. The Board of Directors may from time to time authorize the issuance of shares of this corporation, whether now or hereafter authorized, without first offering such shares to the shareholders of this corporation.

ARTICLE V.

Except as may otherwise be provided by the Board of Directors, no holder of any shares of this corporation shall have any preemptive right to purchase, subscribe for or otherwise acquire any securities of this corporation of any class or kind now or hereafter authorized.

ARTICLE VI.

There shall be no cumulative voting of shares in this corporation.

ARTICLE VII.

Any corporate action that may be approved by a shareholder vote at a meeting of the shareholders of this corporation may be approved without a meeting or a vote if the corporate action is approved by a single consent or multiple counterpart consents each in the form of an executed record delivered to this corporation by (i) all shareholders entitled to vote on the corporate action or (ii) shareholders holding of record, or otherwise entitled to vote, in the aggregate not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to approve such corporate action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on the corporate action were present and voted. This corporation shall comply with any provisions of the Washington

B-3

business corporation act that require notice by this corporation in connection with shareholder consents being sought or obtained for the approval of any corporate action. Approval of corporate action by execution of shareholder consents pursuant to this Article VII has the effect of a vote at a shareholders meeting.

ARTICLE VIII.

Any corporate action for which the Washington business corporation act, as then in effect, would otherwise require approval by either a two-thirds vote of the shareholders of the corporation or by a two-thirds vote of one or more voting groups shall be deemed approved by the shareholders or the voting group(s) if it is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of shares entitled to vote or, if approval by voting groups is required, by the holders of a majority of shares within each voting group entitled to vote separately. Notwithstanding this Article VIII, effect shall be given to any other provision of these articles of incorporation that specifically requires a greater vote for approval of any particular corporate action.

ARTICLE IX.

The shareholders shall have the power to adopt, alter, amend or repeal bylaws, and the Board of Directors shall have the same power except with respect to bylaws for which shareholder approval is required by law.

ARTICLE X.

This corporation shall have at least one director, the actual number to be fixed in accordance with this corporation’s bylaws.

ARTICLE XI.

To the fullest extent permitted by the Washington business corporation act, a director of this corporation shall not be liable to this corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for conduct of that director as a director. Any amendment to or repeal of this Article XI shall not adversely affect any right of a director of this corporation under this Article XI with respect to any acts or omissions of that director occurring prior to amendment or repeal.

ARTICLE XII.

To the fullest extent permitted by this corporation’s bylaws and the Washington business corporation act, this corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved (including, without limitation, as a witness) in any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether formal or informal, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director of this corporation. The Board of Directors shall be entitled to determine the terms of indemnification, including advance of expenses, and to give effect thereto through the adoption of bylaws, approval of agreements, or by any other manner approved by the Board of Directors. Any amendment to or repeal of this Article XII shall not adversely affect any right of an individual with respect to any right to indemnification arising prior to such amendment or repeal.

The Corporation shall comply with any provisions of the Washington business corporation act that require notice by the Corporation in connection with shareholder consents being sought or obtained for approval of any corporation action. Any consent delivered to the Corporation pursuant to this Section 1.5 shall be inserted in the minute book as if it were the minutes of a meeting of the shareholders and each consent shall be (i) in an executed record or (ii) if the Corporation has designated an address, location, or system to which the consent may be electronically transmitted and the consent is electronically transmitted to the designated address, location, or system, in an executed electronically transmitted record.

1.6 Telephone Meetings. Shareholders may participate in a meeting of shareholders by means of a conference telephone or any similar communications equipment that enables all persons participating in the meeting to hear each other during the meeting. Participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at a meeting.

1.7 List of Shareholders. At least 10 days before any shareholders’ meeting, the Secretary of the Corporation or the agent having charge of the share transfer books of the Corporation shall have compiled a complete list of the shareholders entitled to notice of a shareholders’ meeting, arranged in alphabetical order and by voting group, with the address of each shareholder and the number, class, and series, if any, of shares owned by each.

1.8 Quorum and Voting. The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on a matter at a meeting shall constitute a quorum of shareholders for that matter. If a quorum exists, action on a matter shall be approved by a voting group if the votes cast within a voting group favoring the action exceed the votes cast within the voting group opposing the action, unless a greater number of affirmative votes is required by the Corporation’s articles of incorporation or by law. If the Corporation’s articles of incorporation or Washington law provide for voting by two or more voting groups on a matter, action on a matter is taken only when voted upon by each of those voting groups counted separately. Action may be taken by one voting group on a matter even though no action is taken by another voting group.

C-2

1.9 Adjourned Meetings. If a shareholders’ meeting is adjourned to a different place, date or time, whether for failure to achieve a quorum or otherwise, notice need not be given of the new place, date or time if the new place, date or time is announced at the meeting before adjournment. When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in these bylaws, that determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof, unless Washington law requires fixing a new record date. If Washington law requires that a new record date be set for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting must be given to shareholders as of the new record date. Any business may be transacted at an adjourned meeting that could have been transacted at the meeting as originally called.

1.10 Proxies. A shareholder may appoint a proxy to vote or otherwise act for the shareholder by (i) executing a writing authorizing another person or persons to act for the shareholder as proxy or (ii) transmitting or authorizing the transmission of an electronic transmission which contains or is accompanied by information from which it can be reasonably verified that the transmission was authorized by the shareholder or by the shareholder’s attorney-in-fact. The Corporation shall require the holders of proxies by transmission to provide to the Corporation copies of the transmission and the Corporation shall retain copies of the transmission for at least 60 days after each shareholder vote or action where such proxy was exercised. The appointment shall be valid for 11 months unless the appointment form expressly provides for a longer period. An appointment of a proxy is revocable unless the appointment is coupled with an interest. No revocation shall be effective until written notice thereof has actually been received by the Secretary of the Corporation or any other person authorized to tabulate votes.

1.11 Fixing Record Date. The Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for determining shareholders entitled: (i) to notice of or to vote at any shareholders’ meeting or any adjournment thereof; (ii) to receive payment of any share dividend; or (iii) to receive payment of any distribution. The Board of Directors may in addition fix record dates with respect to any allotment of rights or conversion or exchange of any securities by their terms, or for any other proper purpose, as determined by the Board of Directors and by law. The record date shall be not more than 70 days and, in case of a meeting of shareholders, not less than 10 days (or such longer period as may be required by Washington law) prior to the date on which the particular action requiring determination of shareholders is to be taken. If no record date is fixed for determining the shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, the record date shall be the date before the day on which notice of the meeting is delivered. If no record date is fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to a distribution (other than one involving a purchase, redemption, or other acquisition of the Corporation’s own shares), the record date shall be the date on which the Board adopted the resolution declaring the distribution. If no record date is fixed for determining shareholders entitled to a share dividend, the record date shall be the date on which the Board of Directors authorized the dividend.

SECTION 2

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

2.1 Number and Qualification. The business affairs and property of the Corporation shall be managed under the direction of a Board of Directors. The number of directors of the Corporation is set forth in Exhibit A. The Board of Directors may increase or decrease this number by resolution, but in no event shall the actual number of directors be less than three (3). A decrease in the number of directors shall not shorten the term of an incumbent director.

2.2 Election; Term of Office. The directors shall be elected by the shareholders at each annual shareholders’ meeting or at a special shareholders’ meeting called for such purpose. Despite the expiration of a director’s term, that director continues to serve until that director’s successor is elected and qualified or until there is a decrease in the authorized number of directors.

2.3 Vacancies. Except as otherwise provided by law, vacancies in the Board of Directors, whether caused by resignation, death, retirement, disqualification, removal, increase in the number of directors, or otherwise, may be filled for the remainder of the term by the Board of Directors, by the shareholders, or, if the directors in office constitute less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, by an affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors. The term of a director elected to fill a vacancy expires at the next shareholders’ meeting at which directors are elected. A vacancy that will occur at a specific later date may be filled before the vacancy occurs, but the new director may not take office until the vacancy occurs.

2.4 Quorum and Voting. At any meeting of the Board of Directors, the presence in person (including presence by electronic means such as a telephone conference call) of a majority of the number of directors presently in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no case shall a quorum be less than one-third of the authorized number of directors. If a quorum is present at the time of a vote, the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors present at the time of the vote shall be the act of the Board of Directors and of the Corporation except as may be otherwise specifically provided by the Corporation’s articles of incorporation, by these bylaws, or by law. A director who is present at a meeting of the Board of Directors when action is taken is deemed to have assented to the action taken unless: (i) the director objects at the beginning of the meeting, or promptly upon the director’s arrival, to holding the meeting or to transacting business at the meeting; (ii) the director’s dissent or abstention from the action taken is entered in the minutes of the meeting; or (iii) the director delivers notice of the director’s dissent or abstention to the presiding officer of the meeting before the adjournment of the meeting or to the Corporation within a reasonable time after adjournment of the meeting. The right of dissent or abstention is not available to a director who votes in favor of the action taken.

2.5 Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of the Board of Directors of the Corporation shall be held immediately following the adjournment of the annual meeting of the shareholders at the office of the Corporation, or at such other place as may have been designated for the holding of the annual meeting of shareholders pursuant to Section 1.1 hereof.

C-4

2.6 Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors shall be held at such place, date and time as shall from time to time be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors.

2.7 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be held at any place and at any time and may be called by the Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, or any two or more directors.

2.8 Notice of Meetings. Unless the Corporation’s articles of incorporation provide otherwise, any annual meeting or regular meeting of the Board of Directors may be held without notice of the date, time, place, or purpose of the meeting. Any special meeting of the Board of Directors must be preceded by at least two days notice of the date, time, and place of the meeting, but not of its purpose, unless the Corporation’s articles of incorporation or these bylaws require otherwise. Notice may be given (i) orally, (ii) by tangible medium transmitted by mail, private carrier, personal delivery, telephone, wire or wireless equipment which transmits a facsimile of the notice, (iii) by electronic transmission in accordance with applicable law, or (iv) in any other manner allowed by law. Oral notice shall be sufficient only if a record of such notice is included in the Corporation’s minute book. Notice given in accordance with the foregoing shall be effective as provided by applicable law. Notice of any meeting of the Board of Directors may be waived by any director at any time. The waiver shall be set forth either (i) in an executed record or (ii) if the Corporation has designated an address, location, or system to which waiver may be electronically transmitted and the waiver is electronically transmitted to the designated address, location, or system, in an executed electronically transmitted record. The waiver shall be delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minutes, either before or after the meeting. Attendance or participation by a director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of any required notice of the meeting unless the director promptly objects to holding the meeting or to the transaction of any business on the grounds that the meeting was not lawfully convened and the director does not thereafter vote for or assent to action taken at the meeting.

2.9 Directors’ Action Without A Meeting. The Board of Directors or a committee thereof may take any action without a meeting that it could properly take at a meeting if one or more consents setting forth the action are executed by all of the directors, or all of the members of the committee, as the case may be, either before or after the action is taken, and if the consents are delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the corporate records. Consents shall be set forth either (i) in an executed record or (ii) if the Corporation has designated an address, location, or system to which the consent may be electronically transmitted and the consent is electronically transmitted to the designated address, location, or system, in an executed electronically transmitted record. Such action shall be effective when the last director executes the consent, unless the consent specifies a later effective date.

2.10 Committees of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors, by resolutions adopted by a majority of the directors in office, may create from among its members one or more committees and shall appoint the members thereof. Each such committee must have two or more members, who shall be directors and who shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. Each committee of the Board of Directors may exercise the authority of the Board of Directors to the extent provided in its enabling resolution and any pertinent subsequent resolutions adopted in

C-5

like manner, provided that the authority of each such committee shall be subject to applicable law. Each committee of the Board of Directors shall keep regular minutes of its proceedings and shall report to the Board of Directors when requested to do so.

2.11 Telephone Meetings. Members of the Board of Directors or of any committee appointed by the Board of Directors may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors or committee by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment that enables all persons participating in the meeting to hear each other during the meeting. Participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at a meeting.

2.12 Compensation of Directors. The Board of Directors may fix the compensation of directors as such and may authorize the reimbursement of their expenses.

4.2 Consideration for Shares. Shares of the Corporation may be issued for such consideration as shall be determined by the Board of Directors to be adequate. The consideration for the issuance of shares may be paid in whole or in part in cash, or in any tangible or intangible property or benefit to the Corporation, including, but not limited to, promissory notes, services performed, contracts for services to be performed, or other securities of the Corporation. Establishment by the Board of Directors of the amount of consideration received or to be received for shares of the Corporation shall be deemed to be a determination that the consideration so established is adequate.

Shares may be transferred by delivery of the certificate, accompanied either by an assignment in writing on the back of the certificate, or by a written power of attorney to sell, assign and transfer the same, signed by the record holder of the certificate.

5.1 Records of Corporate Meetings, Accounting Records and Share Registers.

The Corporation or its agent shall maintain, in

C-8

a form that permits preparation of a list, a list of the names and addresses of its shareholders, in alphabetical order by class of shares, and the number, class, and series, if any, of shares held by each. The Corporation shall also maintain appropriate accounting records, and at its principal place of business shall keep copies of: (i) its articles of incorporation or restated articles of incorporation and all amendments in effect; (ii) its bylaws or restated bylaws and all amendments in effect; (iii) minutes of all shareholders’ meetings and records of all actions taken without meetings for the past three years; (iv) the year-end balance sheets and income statements for the past three fiscal years, prepared as required by Washington law; (v) all communications to shareholders generally in the past three years; (vi) a list of the names and business addresses of its current officers and directors; and (vii) its most recent annual report to the Secretary of State.

5.3 Examination of Records. A shareholder shall have the right to inspect and copy, during regular business hours at the principal office of the Corporation, in person or by that shareholder’s attorney or agent, the corporate records referred to in the last sentence of Section 5.1 of these bylaws if the shareholder gives the Corporation notice of the demand at least five business days before the date on which the shareholder wishes to make such inspection. In addition, if a shareholder’s demand is made in good faith and for a proper purpose, a shareholder may inspect and copy, during regular business hours at a reasonable location specified by the Corporation, excerpts from minutes of any meeting of the Board of Directors, records of any action of a committee of the Board of Directors, records of actions taken by the Board of Directors without a meeting, minutes of shareholders’ meetings held or records of action taken by shareholders without a meeting not within the past three years, accounting records of the Corporation, or the record of shareholders; provided that the shareholder shall have made a demand describing with reasonable particularity the shareholder’s purpose and the records the shareholder desires to inspect, and provided further that the records are directly connected to the shareholder’s purpose. This Section 5.3 shall not affect any right of shareholders to inspect records of the Corporation that may be otherwise granted to the shareholders by law.

5.4 Waiver of Section 1501 of California General Law. To the extent that the Corporation is subject to compliance with Section 1501 of the California General Corporation Law, so long as the Corporation has less than 100 holders of record of its shares, the annual report to shareholders referred to in Section 1501 of the California Corporations Code is expressly dispensed with, but nothing herein may be interpreted as prohibiting the Board of Directors from issuing annual or other periodic reports to the shareholders of the Corporation as they consider appropriate.

5.5 Financial Statements. Not later than four months after the end of each fiscal year, or in any event prior to its annual meeting of shareholders, the Corporation shall prepare a balance sheet and income statement in accordance with Washington law.

SECTION 10

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OTHERS

10.1 Grant of Indemnification. Subject to Section 10.2, each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved (including, without limitation, as a witness) in any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether formal or informal, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director of the Corporation or who, while a director of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise, or employee benefit plan, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as then in effect, against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, costs, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators.

C-10

10.2 Limitations on Indemnification. Notwithstanding Section 10.1, no indemnification shall be provided hereunder to any such person to the extent that such indemnification would be prohibited by the Washington business corporation act or other applicable law as then in effect, nor, except as provided in Section 10.4 with respect to proceedings seeking to enforce rights to indemnification, shall the Corporation indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person except where such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

10.3 Advancement of Expenses. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section 10 shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the reasonable expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition, except where the Board of Directors shall have adopted a resolution expressly disapproving such advancement of expenses, if the director furnishes the Corporation (i) a written affirmation of the director’s good faith belief that the director has met the standard of conduct as described by the Washington business corporation act, and (ii) a written undertaking, executed personally or on the director’s behalf to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that the director did not meet the standard of conduct as described by the Washington business corporation act, which undertaking must be an unlimited general obligation of the director but need not be secured and may be accepted without reference to financial ability to make repayment. The authorization of payments for such advancement of expenses may be made by resolution adopted by the shareholders or the Board of Directors.

10.4 Right to Enforce Indemnification. If a claim under Section 10.1 is not paid in full by the Corporation within 60 days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, or if a claim for expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final disposition authorized under Section 10.3 is not paid within 20 days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, to the extent successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. The claimant shall be presumed to be entitled to indemnification hereunder upon submission of a written claim (and, in an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition, where the required undertaking has been tendered to the Corporation), and thereafter the Corporation shall have the burden of proof to overcome the presumption that the claimant is so entitled. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action with respect to expenses authorized under Section 10.3) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible hereunder or under the Washington business corporation act for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of or reimbursement or advancement of expenses to the claimant is proper in the circumstances because the claimant has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth herein or in the

C-11

Washington business corporation act nor (except as provided in Section 10.3) an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) that the claimant is not entitled to indemnification or to the reimbursement or advancement of expenses shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant is not so entitled.

10.5 Nonexclusivity. The right to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this Section 10 shall be valid to the extent consistent with Washington law.

10.6 Indemnification of Officers, Employees and Agents. The Corporation may, by action of its Board of Directors from time to time, provide indemnification and pay expenses in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding to officers, employees and agents of the Corporation on the same terms and with the same scope and effect as the provisions of this Section 10 with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors of the Corporation or pursuant to rights granted pursuant to, or provided by, the Washington business corporation act or on such other terms as the Board may deem proper.

10.7 Insurance and Other Security. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any individual who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, a partnership, a joint venture, a trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against or incurred by the individual in that capacity or arising from the individual’s status as an officer, director, agent, or employee, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against the same liability under the Washington business corporation act. The Corporation may enter into contracts with any director or officer of the Corporation in furtherance of the provisions of this Section 10 and may create a trust fund, grant a security interest or use other means (including, without limitation, a letter of credit) to ensure the payment of such amounts as may be necessary to effect indemnification as provided in this Section 10.

10.8 Amendment or Modification. This Section 10 may be altered or amended at any time as provided in these bylaws, but no such amendment shall have the effect of diminishing the rights of any person who is or was an officer or director as to any acts or omissions taken or omitted to be taken prior to the effective date of such amendment.

10.9 Effect of Section. The rights conferred by this Section 10 shall be deemed to be contract rights between the Corporation and each person who is or was a director or an officer. The Corporation expressly intends each such person to rely on the rights conferred hereby in performing such person’s respective duties on behalf of the Corporation.

SECTION 11

REPRESENTATION OF SHARES OF OTHER CORPORATIONS

Unless otherwise restricted by the Board of Directors, the Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, any Vice President and the Secretary of the Corporation are each authorized to vote, represent and exercise on behalf of the Corporation all rights incident to any and all shares of other corporations standing in the name of the Corporation.

Except in the case of a WRECO Separate Return, a Transfer Tax Return and a Tax Return of the RMT Group, Weyerhaeuser shall determine the Tax reporting of any issue relating to the Transactions that is not covered by the Tax Opinion.

ARTICLE IV

Tax-Free Treatment of Distribution and Related Transaction

SECTION 4.01. Representations. (a) Weyerhaeuser represents and warrants to Parent that, as of the Closing Date, (i) Weyerhaeuser knows of no facts that could cause any Transaction to fail to qualify for Intended Tax Treatment, (ii) Weyerhaeuser has no plan or intention to take any action inconsistent with the Weyerhaeuser Representation Letter or any covenant of Weyerhaeuser set forth this Agreement and (iii) no pre-Distribution acquisition or

E-12

sale of Weyerhaeuser Common Shares by Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary will be part of a plan (or series of related transactions), within the meaning of Section 355(e)(2)(A)(ii) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.355-7(b), that includes the Distribution.

(b) Parent represents and warrants to Weyerhaeuser that, as of the Closing Date, (i) Parent knows of no facts that could cause any Transaction to fail to qualify for Intended Tax Treatment and (ii) Parent has no plan or intention to take any action inconsistent with the Parent Representation Letter or any covenant of the RMT Group member set forth in this Agreement. Parent further represents and warrants that, immediately before the Effective Time, the amount of shares of Parent Capital Stock treated as outstanding for purposes of Section 355(e) of the Code will not exceed 33,000,000 shares. Any equity-based compensation awards in respect of Parent Capital Stock outstanding immediately before the Effective Time shall be treated as vested or exercised, as the case may be, and the resulting Parent Capital Stock shall be treated as outstanding stock for purposes of the calculation in the immediately preceding sentence.

SECTION 4.02. Covenants. (a) During the Restricted Period, (i) Weyerhaeuser shall not, and shall not permit any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary (or any officers or directors acting on behalf of Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary, or any Person acting with the implicit or explicit permission of any such officers or directors) to, take or fail to take any action if such action (or the failure to take such action) would (A) be inconsistent with any covenant, representation or statement made by Weyerhaeuser in the Weyerhaeuser Representation Letter or in this Agreement or (B) prevent, or be reasonably likely to prevent, any Transaction from qualifying for Intended Tax Treatment, and (ii) Parent shall not, and shall not permit any RMT Group member (or any officers or directors acting on behalf of any RMT Group member, or any Person acting with the implicit or explicit permission of any such officers or directors) to, take or fail to take any action if such action (or the failure to take such action) would (A) be inconsistent with any covenant, representation or statement made by Parent in the Parent Representation Letter or in this Agreement or (B) prevent, or be reasonably likely to prevent, any Transaction from qualifying for Intended Tax Treatment.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 4.02(a), during the Restricted Period, subject to Section 4.02(d), Parent shall not, and shall not permit any RMT Group member (or any officers or directors acting on behalf of any RMT Group member, or any Person acting with the implicit or explicit permission of any such officers or directors) to:

(i) enter into any agreement, understanding, arrangement or substantial negotiations, as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.355-7(h), pursuant to which any Person would (directly or indirectly) acquire, or have the right to acquire Parent Capital Stock or WRECO Capital Stock. For these purposes, an acquisition of Parent Capital Stock or WRECO Capital Stock, as applicable, shall include, without limitation, any recapitalization, repurchase or redemption of Parent Capital Stock or WRECO Capital Stock, any issuance of Parent Capital Stock or WRECO Capital Stock (including any nonvoting stock) or an instrument exchangeable or convertible into Parent Capital Stock or WRECO Capital Stock (whether pursuant to an exercise of stock options, as a result of a capital contribution to Parent or WRECO, as applicable, or otherwise), any option grant, any amendment to the certificate or articles of incorporation (or other

E-13

organizational document) of Parent or WRECO, as applicable, or any other action (whether effected through a shareholder vote or otherwise) affecting the voting rights of Parent Capital Stock or WRECO Capital Stock (including through the conversion of any Parent Capital Stock or WRECO Capital Stock into another class of capital stock); provided, however, that (A) WRECO shall be permitted to issue WRECO Capital Stock to Parent; (B) Parent shall be permitted to issue options, restricted stock, and deferred stock units in respect of a number of shares of Parent Capital Stock and that does not exceed the Option Amount pursuant to an employee stock purchase agreement, equity compensation agreement, retirement plan or other compensation arrangement; (C) vesting of any restricted stock or deferred stock units that a Safe Harbor VIII Person is entitled to receive (or would be entitled to receive upon achieving the relevant hurdles in existence) as of the Effective Time shall not be treated as an acquisition of Parent Capital Stock for purposes of this Section 4.02(b)(i); (D) Parent shall be permitted to issue Parent Capital Stock to a Safe Harbor VIII Person pursuant to the exercise of an option to acquire Parent Capital Stock that was granted at or prior to the Effective Time; (E) with respect to any issuances of options, restricted stock or deferred stock units in respect of shares of Parent Capital Stock in excess of the Option Amount, after Weyerhaeuser’s receipt and acceptance of, and solely to the extent consistent with, an Equity Compensation Opinion delivered to Weyerhaeuser by Parent, until the earlier of (1) any amendment of the Covered Compensation Arrangement and (2) a change in applicable Tax Law, Parent or WRECO, as applicable, may issue options, restricted stock and deferred stock units in respect of Parent Capital Stock and WRECO Common Stock pursuant to an employee stock purchase agreement, equity compensation agreement, retirement plan or other compensation arrangement that is described in the Equity Compensation Opinion (such arrangement, the “Covered Compensation Arrangement”), and Parent or WRECO, as applicable, may issue the shares of Parent Capital Stock or WRECO Capital Stock underlying such options, restricted stock and/or deferred stock units upon the exercise or vesting thereof, and any such shares shall not be treated as an acquisition of Parent Capital Stock or WRECO Capital Stock, as applicable; (F) subject to compliance with Section 4.02(d), Parent may redeem, retire, repurchase or otherwise acquire Parent Capital Stock in a manner that complies with the requirements of Revenue Procedure 96-30 (as in effect prior to the release of Revenue Procedure 2003-48); and (G) Parent may adopt a shareholder rights plan (and issue Parent Capital Stock in accordance therewith) that is described in or is similar to the shareholder rights plan described in IRS Revenue Ruling 90-11 (for this purpose a shareholder rights plan will be considered similar to the plan described in IRS Revenue Ruling 90-11 only if the principal purpose for the adoption of the plan providing for such rights is to establish a mechanism by which a publicly held corporation can, in the future, provide shareholders with rights to purchase stock at substantially less than fair market value as a means of responding to unsolicited offers to acquire the corporation);

(ii) merge or consolidate Parent or WRECO with any other Person, or liquidate or partially liquidate Parent or WRECO;

(iii) cause or permit Parent or WRECO to be treated as other than a corporation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes; or

E-14

(iv) cause or permit WRECO to cease to engage in the Active Trade or Business, or engage in any transaction that could result in WRECO ceasing to be a company whose separate affiliated group, as defined in Section 355(b)(3)(B) of the Code, is so engaged; provided, however, that, after the Merger, the WRECO Group shall, with respect to transactions not in the ordinary course of business, be permitted to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets with an aggregate value up to 33^1/3% of its assets (determined based on the gross fair market value of the WRECO Group’s assets immediately before the Closing Date) in the aggregate; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the WRECO Group from selling or disposing of assets in the ordinary course of business and any such sales shall be disregarded for purpose of applying the limitation set forth in this Section 4.02(b)(iv).

(c) To the extent that as a result of a subsequent amendment to the Code or the Treasury Regulations, any action or a failure to take any action by Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries or an RMT Group member could affect any Transaction’s qualification for the Intended Tax Treatment, then the covenants contained in Section 4.02(a)(i)(B) and in Section 4.02(a)(ii)(B) shall automatically be deemed to incorporate by reference such actions and the failure to take such actions, and the RMT Group shall comply with the requirements of the relevant amendment through the end of the Restricted Period; provided, however, that no such action or failure to take any such action before the date the relevant amendment is enacted shall constitute a breach of such Sections to the extent such actions or failure to take such actions would not have otherwise constituted a breach of such Sections before such date.

(d) Parent shall not, and shall not permit any RMT Group member to, take any action prohibited by Sections 4.02(b) and (c), unless (i) Weyerhaeuser receives prior written notice describing the proposed action in reasonable detail and (ii) Parent delivers to Weyerhaeuser (A) an Unqualified Opinion and Weyerhaeuser, in its reasonable discretion, which discretion shall be exercised in good faith solely to preserve the Intended Tax Treatment, provides its written consent permitting the proposed action, or (B) a Ruling. Weyerhaeuser’s obligation to cooperate in connection with Parent’s delivery of an Unqualified Opinion or Ruling is as expressly set forth in Section 5.05(b) below. The right of Weyerhaeuser and the Weyerhaeuser Subsidiaries to indemnification for Transaction Taxes shall be determined without regard to whether the RMT Group satisfies any or all of the requirements of this Section 4.02(d).

ARTICLE V

Tax Contests; Indemnification; Cooperation

SECTION 5.01. Notice of Tax Contests. If any party (the “Indemnitee”) receives written notice of the commencement of any Tax Contest for which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement, and such Indemnitee intends to seek indemnity pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall promptly provide the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) with written notice of such Tax Contest, and thereafter shall promptly forward or make available to the Indemnifying Parties copies of all notices and communications with a Taxing Authority solely to the extent relating to such Tax Contest. Failure of the Indemnitee to give such notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Parties from liability on account of this indemnification, except if and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby.

E-15

SECTION 5.02. Control of Tax Contests. (a) Except as provided in Section 5.02(b), Weyerhaeuser shall have the right to (i) contest, compromise or settle any adjustment or deficiency proposed or asserted with respect to any Tax liability of a Weyerhaeuser Group member, any Tax liability reflected on a Joint Return, or any tax liability reflected on a WRECO Separate Return for a Pre-Transaction Agreement Period, and (ii) file, prosecute, compromise or settle any Adjustment Request (and determine the manner in which any Refund shall be received) with respect to any such Taxes for any such period. If any Tax Contest described in the preceding sentence relates to WRECO Group Taxes or Transaction Taxes with respect to which Parent could be liable under Section 2.02(a) (either an “RMT Issue”), (A) Weyerhaeuser shall (1) keep Parent fully informed, in all material respects, regarding the progress of the prosecution or defense of such Tax Contest, (2) promptly provide Parent with copies of any correspondence relating to Taxes received from any Taxing Authority in connection with such Tax Contest and (3) provide Parent with drafts of any correspondence relating to Taxes from Weyerhaeuser to any Taxing Authority in connection with such Tax Contest and provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to comment on such correspondence and (B) if Parent acknowledges its liability in writing for all the Taxes that would be owed to a Taxing Authority in the event of an adverse determination with respect to the RMT Issue, Weyerhaeuser shall not settle or compromise such RMT Issue without Parent’s written consent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If Parent withholds its consent to a settlement or compromise described in clause (B) above, Parent shall be liable for any Taxes resulting from a Final Determination to the extent the basis for the Final Determination is such that the RMT Group would have liability for the applicable Taxes under this Agreement or if the Final Determination fails to clearly articulate the basis for liability such that it is not reasonably ascertainable which party would be liable for the Taxes under this Agreement. Weyerhaeuser and Parent shall use their reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Final Determination clearly provides the basis for such determination.

(b) Parent shall have the right to (i) contest, compromise or settle any adjustment or deficiency proposed or asserted with respect to any Tax liability reflected on any WRECO Separate Return for a period ending after the date of the Transaction Agreement (including any Straddle Period) and any Tax liability reflected on a Transfer Tax Return, and (ii) file, prosecute, compromise or settle any Adjustment Request (and determine the manner in which any Refund shall be received) with respect to any Tax reflected on such Tax Returns for such period. If any Tax Contest described in the preceding sentence relates to Weyerhaeuser Group Taxes or Transaction Taxes with respect to which Weyerhaeuser could be liable under Section 2.02(b) (either, a “Weyerhaeuser Issue”), (A) Parent shall (1) keep Weyerhaeuser fully informed, in all material respects, regarding the progress of the prosecution or defense of such Tax Contest, (2) promptly provide Weyerhaeuser with copies of any correspondence relating to Taxes received from any Taxing Authority in connection with such Tax Contest and (3) provide Weyerhaeuser with drafts of any correspondence relating to Taxes from Parent to any Taxing Authority in connection with such Tax Contest and provide Weyerhaeuser with a reasonable opportunity to comment on such correspondence and (B) if Weyerhaeuser acknowledges its liability in writing for all the Taxes that would be owed to a Taxing Authority in the event of an

E-16

adverse determination with respect to the Weyerhaeuser Issue, Parent shall not settle or compromise such Weyerhaeuser Issue without Weyerhaeuser’s written consent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If Weyerhaeuser withholds its consent to a settlement or compromise described in clause (B) above, Weyerhaeuser shall be liable for any Taxes resulting from a Final Determination to the extent the basis for the Final Determination is such that the Weyerhaeuser Group would have liability for the applicable Taxes under this Agreement or if the Final Determination fails to clearly articulate the basis for liability such that it is not reasonably ascertainable which party would be liable for the Taxes under this Agreement. Weyerhaeuser and Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Final Determination clearly provides the basis for such determination.

SECTION 5.03. Indemnification Payments. (a) The Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnifying Party promptly in writing of its discovery of any matter that does not involve a Tax Contest giving rise to the claim of indemnity pursuant to this Agreement. The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability on account of this indemnification, except if and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have 10 days from receipt of any such notice to give notice of a dispute of the claim to the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any claim for indemnity by the Indemnified Party and in otherwise resolving such matters. Unless the Indemnifying Party gives notice of a dispute of the claim within such 10-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall make the claimed payment to the Indemnitee within 10 days after receiving notice of (i) the Indemnitee’s payment of a Tax for which the Indemnifying Party is liable under this Agreement or (ii) a Final Determination which results in the Indemnifying Party becoming obligated to make a payment to the Indemnitee under this Agreement.

(b) Parent shall not be required to make any payments under this Agreement to Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary until the aggregate amount of such payments due (but for this Section 5.03(b)) exceeds the net amount paid by WRECO to WNR after the date of the Transaction Agreement in respect of (without duplication), (i) WRECO Group Taxes or (ii) payables that arise after the date of the Transaction Agreement pursuant to the Tax Allocation Agreement, dated January 1, 2010, between WNR and WRECO, and thereafter Parent shall only be required to make payments to the extent of such excess. Weyerhaeuser will provide Parent with evidence of the amounts described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, in a form mutually agreed upon by the parties. For purposes of calculating the net amount paid by WRECO to WNR in the previous sentence, any increase after the date of the Transaction Agreement in the amount of Intercompany Debt in respect of Taxes or payables described in clause (i) or (ii) above shall be taken into account as a payment from WRECO to WNR.

SECTION 5.04. Treatment of Indemnity Payments. In the absence of a Final Determination to the contrary, any amount payable with respect to any Tax under this Agreement shall be treated as occurring immediately prior to the WRECO Spin, as an intercompany distribution or a contribution to capital, as the case may be.

SECTION 5.05. Cooperation. (a) Each of Weyerhaeuser and Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, subject to Section 5.05(b) below, cooperate fully with all

E-17

reasonable requests from the other parties in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns and Adjustment Requests, the resolution of Tax Contests and any other matters covered herein. If any parties fail to comply with any of their obligations set forth in this Section 5.06(a), and such failure results in the imposition of additional Taxes, the nonperforming parties shall be liable for such additional Taxes.

(b) In connection with the foregoing, Weyerhaeuser shall, at Parent’s sole expense, reasonably cooperate with Parent, upon its written request, in connection with obtaining (i) a Ruling or (ii) an Unqualified Opinion. Such cooperation shall include Weyerhaeuser providing any information, submissions, representations and covenants reasonably requested by a recipient that has previously executed with Weyerhaeuser an appropriate confidentiality agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Weyerhaeuser and that permits reliance by Weyerhaeuser. This Section 5.05 shall not require Weyerhaeuser to take any action (including the provision of information, submissions, representations or covenants) that could reasonably be expected to affect Weyerhaeuser’s indemnity obligation for Taxes under this Agreement, decrease in any respect Parent’s indemnity obligation for Taxes under this Agreement, or cause Weyerhaeuser or any Weyerhaeuser Subsidiary to have any liability to any third party, including any liability for increased Taxes. Parent acknowledges and agrees that, in the case of a Ruling, Parent shall immediately notify Weyerhaeuser if the IRS seeks any non-publicly available information regarding Weyerhaeuser or any of its Affiliates, and Parent shall not provide any such information to the IRS without Weyerhaeuser’s written consent, which consent can be withheld or provided in Weyerhaeuser’s sole and absolute discretion. Parent shall promptly withdraw any such Ruling request (and immediately notify Weyerhaeuser in writing of such withdrawal) if Weyerhaeuser does not affirmatively consent to provide the requested information within 48 hours of Parent’s notification to Weyerhaeuser regarding the request therefor. Parent shall provide to Weyerhaeuser, for its review and approval prior to filing, a copy of any Ruling request and any other submissions made to the IRS in connection therewith, and Parent shall provide to Weyerhaeuser a copy of any Ruling obtained in connection with such request.

SECTION 5.06. Tax Records. Each of Weyerhaeuser and Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, retain all Tax Records in its possession relating to or relevant to any Tax matter for which any party may have an indemnity obligation hereunder until expiration of the statute of limitations of the Tax periods to which such Tax Records relate (giving effect to any valid extensions made known to the Purchaser) plus six months.

SECTION 5.07. Confidentiality. Any information or documents provided under this Agreement shall be kept confidential by the recipient parties, except as may otherwise be necessary in connection with the filing of any Tax Return or the resolution of any Tax Contest. In addition, if Weyerhaeuser, WRECO or Parent determines that providing such information could be commercially detrimental, violate any Law or agreement or waive any privilege, the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to permit compliance with the obligations under this Agreement in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

ARTICLE VI

Dispute Resolution

SECTION 6.01 Tax Disputes. The parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute arising in connection with this Agreement within 30 days of the date on which any such dispute arises. Upon written notice by a party after such 30-day period, the matter will be referred to a U.S. tax counsel or other tax advisor of recognized national standing (the “Tax Advisor”). Weyerhaeuser and Parent shall negotiate in good faith to jointly select a Tax Advisor within five days of such written notice. If Weyerhaeuser and Parent do not agree on the selection of the Tax Advisor within such five-day period, the Tax Advisor shall be selected by Weyerhaeuser’s and Parent’s respective U.S. tax counsel or other advisors of recognized national standing within the following 10-day period. The Tax Advisor may, in its discretion, obtain the services of any third party necessary to assist it in resolving the dispute. The Tax Advisor shall furnish written notice to the parties of its resolution of the dispute as soon as practicable, but in any event no later than 90 days after acceptance of the matter for resolution. Any such resolution by the Tax Advisor shall be binding on the parties, and the parties shall take, or cause to be taken, any action necessary to implement such resolution. All fees and expenses of the Tax Advisor shall be shared equally by Weyerhaeuser and Parent. If any dispute regarding the preparation of a Tax Return is not resolved before the due date for filing such return, the return shall be filed in the manner deemed correct by the party responsible for filing the return without prejudice to the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, provided that the preparing party shall file an amended Tax Return, within 10 days after the completion of the process set forth in this Section 6.01, reflecting any changes made in connection with such process.

SECTION 7.02. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto 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 end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

SECTION 7.03. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties.

SECTION 7.04. Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, together with the other Transaction Documents, constitutes the entire agreement, and

E-20

supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies.

SECTION 7.05. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

SECTION 7.06. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 7.07. Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time. Any amendment to this Agreement shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto. The parties hereto may, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, waive compliance with any of the terms or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights hereunder or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

SECTION 7.08. Termination. This Agreement shall automatically terminate, without further action by any party hereto, upon the termination of the Transaction Agreement pursuant to Section 11.01 thereof. In the event of any such termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability or obligation on the part of Weyerhaeuser, WRECO and Parent and Merger Sub or any other Person, other than Section 5.07 and this Article VII, which provisions shall survive such termination.

SECTION 7.09. Survival. All Sections of this Agreement shall be unconditional and absolute and shall remain in effect without limitation as to time (except to the extent any Sections expressly provide for an earlier date, in which case, as of such date).
