                      EXECUTIVE OFFICER WELLNESS PROGRAM


INTRODUCTION

Boise Cascade Office Products Corporation ("BCOP" or the "Company") has adopted
an Executive Officer Wellness Program (the "Plan") to encourage executive
officers to monitor their health status, establish active dialogues with their
physicians, and engage in appropriate health screening based on various factors.
Participation in the Plan is voluntary and confidential.  Reports to BCOP are
not required.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE

Executive officers of BCOP who are not also officers of Boise Cascade
Corporation are automatically eligible to participate in the Plan.

WHAT THE PLAN PROVIDES

The Plan provides a limited reimbursement allowance for annual wellness
examinations by a physician, a Health Risk Appraisal questionnaire for use by
you and your physician, and an annual subscription to the Harvard Health Letter.

The initial reimbursement allowance is $1000 for services provided in connection
with a wellness examination through December 31, 2000.  Beginning January 31,
2001, $500 per year will be added to the reimbursement allowance.  However, at
no time will your reimbursement allowance exceed $1000.

CLAIMS

You may make a claim for reimbursement from your reimbursement allowance by
sending your request for reimbursement together with an itemized billing from
your physician to Boise Cascade HR Services at the following address:

     Boise Cascade HR Services
     Attention:  Sally Wyman
     P.O. Box 61
     Boise, ID  83707

Boise Cascade HR Services will coordinate the reimbursement to you through
Regence (Blue Cross/Blue Shield).  Reimbursement payments are not subject to any
deductible.

PLAN ADMINISTRATION, ERISA RIGHTS

The BCOP Benefits Health Care booklet (the summary plan description) identifies
the plan administrator and explains your ERISA rights under this Plan.  If a
dispute or

disagreement arises regarding terms of coverage, or benefits provided under this
Plan, you must use the "claims/appeal" processes described in that booklet.

SOURCE OF FUNDING

This Plan is self-insured by the Company.  Payments for benefits under this Plan
are made from the general assets of the Company as benefits become payable.

TAXABILITY

All benefits payable under this Plan are considered taxable income to you, are
subject to tax withholding requirements, and will be reflected in your Form W-2
earnings.

COVERAGE DURING A LEAVE OF ABSENCE

Your medical coverages may be continued while you are still employed by the
Company but are not actively at work because of an accident or illness or
certain other company-approved leaves of absence.  Under such conditions,
coverage under this Plan will continue in keeping with the provisions of the
leave.

WHEN YOUR COVERAGE ENDS

Your coverage under the Plan ends on the earliest of the following dates:
                                         --------

     .    On the date your employment with BCOP ends.
     .    On the date you become ineligible to participate in these coverages --
          for example, if you cease to be an executive officer of BCOP.
     .    On the date BCOP elects to discontinue this Plan.

     The Company expressly reserves the right to amend or terminate this Plan at
     any time. Coverage under this Plan is not and should not be deemed to
     create a contract of employment and under no circumstances shall be
     construed to give any participant a right to remain an employee or officer
     of the Company for any period. Any participant in this Plan is employed
     solely at the will of the Company.

     To the extent not governed by federal law, this Plan will be construed
     according to the laws of the state of Idaho. In the event any lawsuit or
     legal action is brought (by any party, person, or entity regarding this
     Plan, benefits hereunder, or any related issue), such action or suit may be
     brought only in Federal District Court in the District of Idaho.
