1.3 The parties hereto acknowledge that this Agreement forms an integral part of the value of the acquired business under the Asset Purchase Agreement dated July 26, 2004, and Seller would not have entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement or paid the purchase price thereunder without the benefit of this Agreement. The parties hereto covenant to operate as good business partners and use their reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the other party hereto in order to facilitate compliance with and performance of this Agreement and to further the other party’s business objectives and prospects.
2. Products:
2.1 Pursuant to this agreement, Purchasers will purchase all of their North American requirements for “office papers” exclusively from Seller to the extent that Seller is capable and desirous of producing and supplying such paper products, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Products which are being purchased by Purchasers from Seller currently are set forth in Exhibit A. Seller shall update Exhibit A periodically to reflect the products being sold hereunder.
2.2 “Office Papers” shall include the following categories:
2.2.1 Products produced and sold by Seller to Purchasers today which are described by SKU in Exhibit A as either “commodity” or “value add” products (“Current Commodity Products” and “Current Value Add Products” respectively).
2.2.1.1 Pricing and terms of sale for Current Commodity Products and Current Value Add Products are set forth in Exhibit A.
2.2.1.2 During periods when price increases have been announced and are pending implementation, unless Seller otherwise agrees, Purchasers shall not purchase more than [*****]% of the average monthly volume purchased for the particular product during the prior three months.
2.2.1.3 During the term of this Agreement, Purchasers shall use their best efforts to market and sell Current Commodity Products and Current Value Add Products, on a SKU by SKU basis, at levels that equal at least [*****]% of the prior year’s volume determined as follows (“Minimum Level”): By the fifth day of each month, the parties shall determine the aggregate amount of product purchased from Seller on a SKU by SKU basis during the prior three calendar months (“Current Volume”). The parties shall compare the Current Volume purchased from Seller to the volume purchased from Seller for each SKU during the same three month period of the prior year. If the Current Volume for any SKU during any such three month period is not at least [*****]% of the prior year’s volume for the same three month period, the discount for such products shall be adjusted as follows until such time as Purchasers reach the Minimum Level:

Purchaser shall continue selling the Current Value Add Product for at least 90 days following such notice and the pricing adjustments set forth in Section 2.2.1.3 shall become effective immediately upon the date of the notice for all product shipped thereafter. Any decision by Purchaser to resume the sale of such Current Value Add Product, or other Office Paper, shall be subject to Section 2.1.
* Confidential treatment is requested; filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
2
2.2.2 Products purchased from other paper producers which (a) can’t be produced by Seller, or (b) Seller chooses not to produce, and are distributed and sold to Purchasers by Seller (current products are described by SKU in Exhibit A) (“Distributed Products”).
2.2.2.1 Pricing and terms of sale for current Distributed Products are set forth in Exhibit A.
2.2.2.2 From time to time, the parties may mutually agree to have Seller purchase products produced by other paper producers (which can’t be produced by Seller or which Seller chooses not to produce) and manage the purchasing and distribution of such products on behalf of Purchaser. Seller and Purchasers shall determine the price for such products. If the parties can’t agree on a price, Purchasers may purchase such product directly from the other producers and Seller shall have no obligation to distribute or warehouse such products.
2.2.3 Branded paper products of non-paper producers which can be produced by Seller, such as Xerox, HP, and IBM branded papers (“OEM Products”). Purchasers’ purchases of OEM paper shall not exceed 110% of the volume purchased in the prior year by SKU.
2.2.3.1 Purchasers shall use their best efforts to cause the sellers of OEM Products to use paper produced by Seller when Seller can produce such paper and wishes to make such paper for the OEM. Purchasers shall obtain a copy of the quotes of the other paper producers for such OEM products and shall share a copy with Seller. Seller shall have the opportunity to meet the price of the other producer and if Seller chooses to do so, Purchasers shall cause the OEM to use Seller’s paper. Purchasers and Seller shall closely cooperate with respect to such opportunities but Purchaser shall not be required to pay more for the OEM product with Seller produced paper.
2.2.4 Premium grade branded products produced by other paper manufacturers such as Hammermill (“Premium Non-Boise Products”).
2.2.4.1 Purchasers shall be permitted to purchase premium grades of papers produced by other paper manufacturers provided, however, that if Seller produces a competing premium paper, Purchasers shall purchase the paper from Seller unless a customer specifies the other competing brand; it being understood that Purchasers will encourage and promote the sale of Seller’s products.
3
2.2.5 New paper products that Purchasers wish to sell that can be produced by Seller (“New Products”). Such products shall be added to Exhibit A.
2.2.5.1 Seller shall be entitled to produce and sell to Purchaser hereunder any new commodity grade products which can be produced by Seller and which Seller wishes to produce. The price for such product shall be determined in a manner consistent with the pricing methodology used to price Current Commodity Products. Any such product shall be added to Exhibit A.
2.2.5.2 Seller shall be entitled to produce and sell to Purchaser hereunder any new value add product which can be produced by Seller and Seller wishes to produce. Pricing for such product shall be determined in a manner consistent with the pricing methodology used to price Current Value Add Products. If the parties cannot agree on a price for the value add New Product, Purchasers may elect to have other paper producers produce such product provided, however, that Seller shall have the right to meet the price and terms of sale of any competing producer in which case Purchaser will purchase its requirements for the New Product from seller in such volumes as seller may specify.
2.2.5.3 In the case of new commodity grade products, Purchasers shall notify Seller of the new specification and allow Seller 90 days to qualify its paper. Purchasers’ approval of Seller as a qualified producer shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the case of new value add products, Purchaser shall notify Seller of the new specification and allow Seller 90 days to qualify the product. Purchasers’ approval of Seller as a qualified producer shall not be unreasonably withheld.
2.2.6 With respect to any product produced by Seller and sold to Purchaser either today or in the future, non-material changes to such product, including but not limited to changes in SKU number, shades, brightness, basis weight, branding, or labeling, shall not be considered New Products but shall be considered as existing products and price adjustments, if any, shall be consistent with pricing for current Commodity Products and Current Value Add Products. Such products shall be added to Exhibit A.
3. Purchase and Sale:
3.1. Purchasers shall not be placed on allocation, unless and until a notice of termination is delivered pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof in which event such allocation shall be on a ratable basis with Seller’s other customers. If Purchasers order more paper than Seller can produce, Seller shall either purchase paper for resale to Purchasers at the then current prices
4
(including Seller’s charge for its actual cost in handling such paper) or allow Purchasers to obtain an alternate source of supply for the requirements in excess of Seller’s capacity.
3.2 The parties shall share only such market information as is legally permissible.
3.3 General terms and conditions are attached as Exhibit C.
3.4 The parties shall keep the net pricing terms of this agreement strictly confidential. Net pricing for products shall not be disclosed within the parties’ respective organizations except on a strict need-to-know basis and in no case shall any sales representatives of any party be told of the net pricing hereunder.
4. Term of Agreement: Subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 8 of Exhibit D, the term shall be as follows:
4.1 Initial Term – January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2012.
4.2 Renewal Term – This Agreement shall renew automatically for additional one-year terms subject to a notice of termination pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof.
4.3 Termination – To terminate this agreement, a party must deliver a written notice of termination at least 365 days prior to the end of the then current term and such termination shall be effective on the last day of such Initial Term or any renewal term, but subject to the following phase-down period. Following the notice of termination, Purchasers shall reduce their purchases of then Current Commodity Products and then Current Value Add Products ratably by SKU over a four year period commencing on January 1 of the year following the last year of the then current term. The price adjustments set forth in Section 2.2.1.3 (and the other terms of this Agreement) shall apply during the mandatory four year phase down period. In no event shall any termination result in (a) an elimination of such phase down period; or(b) commencement of the phase down period prior to January 1, 2013.
5. Miscellaneous:
5.1 Accounts described in Exhibit C shall have “grandfathered” pricing for the period noted in Exhibit C.
5.2 Truckload drop shipments are defined as customers who commit to purchasing at least three full truckloads per month for shipment direct from Seller’s mill or RSC to the end user customer. Seller and Purchasers may agree on a different price for truckload drop shipments.
5
5.3 Promotions – Nothing shall preclude Seller and Purchasers from periodically agreeing on special promotional pricing. It is expected that such promotional pricing will be for a set volume of Paper, be of limited duration, and result in incremental sales of Paper.
5.4 Seller shall have no obligation to make additional payments for promotions or catalogue materials and shall be included in Purchaser’s “Boise Marketing Works” programs and any related or similar programs of Purchasers in the future.
6. Agreement:
6.1 This Agreement will supersede all prior agreements between Seller and Purchasers, including, but not limited to the following:
6.1.1 Paper Sales Agreement dated April 1, 1995, between Seller and Boise Cascade Office Products Corporation.
6.1.2 Any domestic Vendor Profile between Seller and OfficeMax.
This Agreement has been agreed upon and executed by the parties as of April 28, 2004. The effective date shall be January 1, 2004.

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
These General Terms and Conditions were prepared for incorporation into the Paper Purchase Agreement to which this Exhibit D is appended (the “Agreement”). They are intended to apply as if fully set forth in the Agreement; provided that if anything in this Exhibit D is inconsistent with the express terms of the Agreement, the terms of the Agreement shall control.
1. Safety and Security Requirements. Whenever the provision of goods or services under the Agreement requires a party to be on the property of the other party, each party shall observe all reasonable security and safety procedures or requirements imposed by the other party on third parties providing like goods or services.
2. Standards of Performance.
2.1 In Respect of Goods. The quality of all goods supplied by Seller to Purchasers shall be at least commercially equal to the quality of that grade of goods that Seller is selling to others.
2.2 In Respect of Services. All services supplied by either party to the other shall be performed in accordance with the same standard of care that the supplying party observes in providing similar services to its own operations.
2.3 Disclaimer of Implied Warranties. EACH PARTY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES IN RESPECT OF GOODS OR SERVICES SUPPLIED BY IT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT THAT ARE IMPLIED BY LAW OR BY THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT, EXCEPT FOR THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN SECTION 2.1. THIS DISCLAIMER SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED TO NEGATE OR LIMIT ANY WARRANTY OF TITLE OR RIGHT TO SELL IMPLIED BY LAW OR CUSTOM OF TRADE AND EACH PARTY EXPRESSLY WARRANTS, IN RESPECT OF ALL GOODS TO BE SOLD, THAT IT WILL HAVE AND WILL CONVEY TO THE PURCHASERS GOOD AND MERCHANTABLE TITLE TO SUCH GOODS AND THAT IT WILL WARRANT AND DEFEND SUCH TITLE AGAINST THE CLAIMS OF ALL PERSONS WHATSOEVER.
2.4 Limitation of Liability. Neither party shall be liable for any incidental, indirect, special, collateral, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or lost profits arising from a breach of warranty or any other part of this Agreement. In respect of services, the remedy for failure to meet the standards of service shall be that the party providing the service shall be required to reperform the service without charge. In respect of goods, without limiting the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 2.4, the remedy for failure of the goods to conform to the quality specifications set forth in the Agreement shall be as provided in the Uniform Commercial Code as in force from time to time in the state of Delaware and as specifically set forth in the Agreement.
11
3. Dispute Resolution. The Dispute Resolution Process set forth in Section 5 shall apply to all disputes which may arise between the parties or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates with regard to course-of-performance disputes arising in the ordinary course of business. Such disputes are referred to as “Covered Disputes. In case of other disputes, the parties may pursue any and all remedies under applicable law or equity.
4. [RESERVED]
5. Dispute Resolution Process.
5.1 Limitation. The procedures provided for by this Agreement shall not apply to any Covered Dispute unless and until either party shall have given written notice to the other party invoking this Agreement. Such notice shall specify, in reasonable detail, the dispute to which it is intended to apply. Such dispute is referred to as the “Noticed Dispute.” The effective date of delivery of such notice is referred to as the “Notice Date.”
5.2 Negotiation. Within 5 days after the Notice Date, each party shall designate, in writing to the other party, the name of one of its senior executive officers who shall be its “Designated Representative” in the dispute resolution process. Designation by either party of its Designated Representative shall constitute a representation by such party that its Designated Representative has full power and authority to resolve the Noticed Dispute. Within 15 days after the Notice Date, each party shall have delivered to the Designated Representative of the other party a written statement of its position. Between 30 and 45 days after the Notice Date, the Designated Representatives shall meet, discuss, and negotiate with respect to the Noticed Dispute for a period not to exceed 10 days.
If the parties are unable to settle the Noticed Dispute through negotiations by the 45th day following the Notice Date, they shall mutually appoint a neutral third-party arbitrator. If the parties are unable to agree upon the neutral third-party arbitrator by the 50th day following the Notice Date, either party may obtain the appointment of a neutral third-party arbitrator by the Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware.
5.3 Arbitration. Within 10 days after appointment of the neutral arbitrator, each party shall submit a written statement to the neutral arbitrator and to the other party advocating its position, and each party may, within ten days after receipt of the other party’s statement, submit to the neutral arbitrator and the opposing party one rebuttal statement. Opening statements shall be no longer than 30 pages of 8½” by 11” paper, and rebuttal statements shall be limited to 15 pages of 8½” by 11” paper unless otherwise mutually agreed. Within 20 days after submission of the rebuttal statement, on a date and at a place set by the neutral arbitrator, the Designated Representatives shall meet with the neutral arbitrator to negotiate and resolve the Noticed Dispute. Each Designated Representative may make an oral presentation to the neutral arbitrator. The Designated Representatives of both parties shall be present for such presentations and shall be available at the same location on the following day for arbitrator-sponsored
12
negotiations. If the parties are unable to reach a settlement of the Noticed Dispute, the neutral arbitrator shall, within 20 days thereafter, deliver in writing to each party his or her recommended settlement of the Noticed Dispute. Within ten days after receipt of the neutral arbitrator’s recommended settlement, the parties’ Designated Representatives shall meet at a time and place set by the neutral arbitrator and make a final attempt to resolve the Noticed Dispute. If they are unable to do so, the arbitrator shall make a final decision which shall be final and binding upon the parties.
5.4 Confidentiality.
5.4.1 Each party shall treat all statements, written submissions, and other disclosures made by the other in the course of efforts to resolve the Noticed Dispute (collectively, “Settlement Information”) as confidential information and shall make no disclosure of the Settlement Information to any third party (other than its employees and officers involved in the Noticed Dispute and its counsel and other consultants providing advice in respect of the Noticed Dispute), and it shall require all persons to whom it is permitted to disclose such information to make a similar nondisclosure commitment for the benefit of and enforceable by the party providing such information. Such nondisclosure obligation shall remain in effect for a period of five years from the date of disclosure.
5.4.2 Prior to commencing the arbitration process, the parties shall require the neutral arbitrator to sign a confidentiality agreement in which he or she commits, for the benefit of and on a basis which is enforceable by each party and its respective Affiliates, that he or she will hold the Settlement Information confidential and not disclose it to any party other than the parties, their respective Affiliates, counsel, and advisors and agents involved in the Noticed Dispute, except under order of disclosure by a court of competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a written authorization signed by the party or parties providing the Settlement Information which is to be disclosed.
5.5 Fees and Expenses. The parties shall each cover their own costs and fees associated with the dispute resolution process provided for in this Agreement. The fees and expenses of the neutral arbitrator shall be divided equally by the parties.
5.6 Scope of Obligation; Specific Performance. The parties agree to utilize the settlement procedures outlined above in a good-faith effort to provide for a speedy and economical means of resolving disputes. However, the parties agree that neither party shall be in default or in breach hereof for failure to adhere to any of the procedures outlined above except that (i) compliance with the procedures hereof, in full, when and as required shall be a condition precedent to the other party’s obligation to continue its participation in the negotiation and arbitration process; and (ii) either party may obtain an order of specific performance in respect of the other party’s obligations hereunder.
13
6. Force Majeure.

12. Indemnification. Subject to Section 2.4 of this Exhibit D, the parties intend that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, one party shall be responsible, directly and/or by and through the insurance coverage carried by such party pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, for all claims, causes of actions, demands, lawsuits, or other proceedings that arise out of or in connection with the provision of goods or services under the Agreement.
To effectuate the intent of this Section, each party (“Indemnifying Party”) covenants that it will, in respect of each claim asserted against the other party, its subsidiaries and affiliates and the officers, directors, and employees thereof, (collectively “Indemnified Parties”) by reason of or in connection with the provision of goods or services under the Agreement by the Indemnifying Party, indemnify, save, and hold each such Indemnified Party harmless from and against any and all loss, damage, expense (including attorneys’ fees), responsibility, liability for injury or death of persons, and/or loss, damage to, or destruction of property belonging to persons other than the Indemnified Party and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively “Loss”), where such Loss has resulted from, or has arisen out of, the Indemnifying Party’s provision of goods or services under the Agreement provided, however, that no claims for indemnity hereunder with respect to products sold hereunder shall be made if more than six months has elapsed from the sale of the product and provided further that for claims arising out of the sale of products, the indemnity shall be limited to the cost of the product shipped.

The indemnified Party will first seek reimbursement for any loss from available insurance. The parties further intend that any Loss suffered by an Indemnified Party to which the indemnity does not extend by virtue of its terms or by operation of law, shall nonetheless be compensated by and to the extent of the liability insurance that the Indemnifying Party is required to carry under this Agreement for the benefit of the Indemnified Party.
13. Waiver of Subrogation. Each party waives all rights that each might now or hereafter have against the other, its subsidiaries, or affiliates or against the officers, directors, or employees of any of the foregoing to the extent that the loss so waived is compensated by the property damage insurance required hereby or in fact carried by the party suffering such loss (without regard to any deductible or risk retention feature of such insurance).

15. Severability and Renegotiation. If any part of this Agreement is found to be illegal, void, or unenforceable, such illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability shall not extend beyond the part affected, and unaffected parts of this Agreement will continue in full force and will be binding on the parties. Should any term or provision of this Agreement be found invalid by any court or regulatory body having jurisdiction thereover, the parties shall immediately use their best efforts to renegotiate such term or provision of the Agreement to eliminate such invalidity.

18. Nonwaiver. Any waiver, at any time, by any part of its rights, remedies, duties, and/or obligations with respect to any matters arising in connection with this Agreement, shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right, remedy, duty, and/or obligation with respect to such matter or with respect to any subsequent matter.
