Section 4.3 hereof (the “Originators” and each, an “Originator”), SYLVAMO NORTH AMERICA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sylvamo North America”), as initial
Servicer (as defined below), and SYLVAMO RECEIVABLES, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Buyer”). 
 BACKGROUND

 1.    The Buyer is a special purpose limited liability company, all of the issued and outstanding membership
interests of which are owned by Sylvamo North America. 
 2.    The Originators generate Receivables in the ordinary
course of their businesses. 
 3.    The Originators, in order to finance their respective businesses, wish to sell
(and/or, in the case of Sylvamo North America, contribute from time to time) Receivables and the Related Rights to the Buyer, and the Buyer is willing to purchase and/or accept such Receivables and the Related Rights from the Originators, on the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. 
 4.    The Originators and the Buyer intend each such
transaction to be a true sale or absolute contribution and conveyance of Receivables and the Related Rights by each Originator to the Buyer, providing the Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables, and the Originators and the
Buyer do not intend the transactions hereunder to be characterized as a loan from the Buyer to any Originator. 

5.    The Buyer intends to pledge the Receivables and the Related Rights to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the
Receivables Financing Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows: 
 DEFINITIONS 

Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are defined in Article I of the
Receivables Financing Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Financing Agreement”), among the Buyer, as borrower, Sylvamo
North America, as initial Servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), the Persons from time to time party thereto as Lenders, PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and PNC Capital Markets LLC, as Structuring
Agent. All references hereto to months are to Fiscal Months unless otherwise expressly indicated. All accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP. All terms used in Article 9 of the UCC in the State of
New York, and not specifically defined herein, are used herein as defined in such Article 9. Unless the context otherwise requires, “or” means “and/or,” and “including” (and with correlative meaning “include”

 ARTICLE I 

AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE AND SELL 

SECTION 1.1    Agreement To Purchase and Sell. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement, each Originator, severally and for itself, agrees to sell (and/or, in the case of Sylvamo North America, contribute from time to time) to the Buyer, and the Buyer agrees to purchase (and, in the case of a contribution, accept) from such
Originator, from time to time on or after the Closing Date, but before the Purchase and Sale Termination Date (as defined in Section 1.5), all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to: 

(a)    each Receivable of such Originator (other than the Receivables contributed by Sylvamo North America to the capital
of the Buyer pursuant to Section 3.1(a)) that existed and was owing to such Originator at the closing of such Originator’s business on the Cut-Off Date (as defined below); 

(b)    each Receivable generated by such Originator from and including the Cut-Off
Date to but excluding the Purchase and Sale Termination Date; 
 (c)    all of such Originator’s interest in any
goods (including Returned Goods), and documentation of title evidencing the shipment or storage of any goods (including Returned Goods), the sale of which gave rise to such Receivable; 

(d)    all instruments and chattel paper that may evidence such Receivable; 

(e)    all security interests or liens and property subject thereto from time to time purporting to secure payment of such
Receivable, whether pursuant to the Contract related to such Receivable or otherwise, together with all UCC financing statements or similar filings relating thereto; 

(f)    solely to the extent applicable to such Receivable, all of such Originator’s rights, interests and claims
under the related Contracts and all guaranties, indemnities, insurance and other agreements (including the related Contract) or arrangements of whatever character from time to time supporting or securing payment of such Receivable or otherwise
relating to such Receivable, whether pursuant to the Contract related to such Receivable or otherwise, including, without limitation, any Credit Insurance Policy covering all or any portion of such Receivable; 

(g)    all books and records of such Originator to the extent related to any of the foregoing, and all rights, remedies,
powers, privileges, title and interest (but not obligations) in and to each Lock-Box and all Collection Accounts, into which any Collections or other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC)
with respect to such Receivables may be deposited, and any related investment property acquired with any such Collections or other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC); and 

(h)    all Collections and other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC) of any of the foregoing that are
or were received by such Originator on or after the Cut-Off Date, including, without limitation, all funds which either are received by such Originator, the Buyer, any
Sub-Servicer or the Servicer from or on behalf of the Obligors in payment of any amounts owed (including, without limitation, invoice price, finance charges, interest and all other


  
 2 












 
charges) in respect of any of the above Receivables or are applied to such amounts owed by the Obligors (including, without limitation, any insurance payments that such Originator, the Buyer, any
Sub-Servicer or the Servicer applies in the ordinary course of its business to amounts owed in respect of any of the above Receivables, and net proceeds of sale or other disposition of repossessed goods or
other collateral or property of the Obligors in respect of any of the above Receivables or any other parties directly or indirectly liable for payment of such Receivables). 

All purchases and contributions hereunder shall be made without recourse, but shall be made pursuant to, and in reliance upon, the representations, warranties
and covenants of the Originators set forth in this Agreement. No obligation or liability to any Obligor on any Receivable is intended to be assumed by the Buyer hereunder, and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed. The property, proceeds and
rights described in clauses (c) through (h) above are herein referred to as the “Related Rights”, and the Buyer’s foregoing commitment to purchase Receivables and Related Rights is herein called the
“Purchase Facility.” 
 As used herein, “Cut-Off Date” means (a) with respect
to each Originator party hereto on the date hereof, August 31, 2022, and (b) with respect to any Originator that first becomes a party hereto after the date hereof, the Business Day prior to the date on which such Originator becomes a
party hereto or such other date as the Buyer and such Originator agree to in writing. 
 SECTION 1.2    Timing
of Purchases. 
 (a)    Closing Date Purchases. Effective on the Closing Date, each Originator hereby sells to
the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases, such Originator’s entire right, title and interest in, to and under (i) each Receivable (other than the Receivables contributed by Sylvamo North America to the capital of the Buyer pursuant to
Section 3.1) that existed and was owing to such Originator on the Cut-Off Date, (ii) each Receivable (other than the Receivables contributed by Sylvamo North America to the
capital of the Buyer pursuant to Section 3.1) generated by such Originator from and including the Cut-Off Date, to and including the Closing Date, and (iii) all Related Rights
with respect thereto. 
 (b)    Subsequent Purchases. After the Closing Date, until the Purchase and Sale
Termination Date, each Receivable (other than the Receivables contributed by Sylvamo North America to the capital of the Buyer pursuant to Section 3.2) and the Related Rights generated by each Originator shall be, and shall
be deemed to have been, sold by such Originator to the Buyer immediately (and without further action) upon the creation of such Receivable. 

SECTION 1.3    Consideration for Purchases. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement, the Buyer agrees to make Purchase Price payments to the Originators and to reflect all capital contributions in accordance with Article III. 

SECTION 1.4    Contributions. Sylvamo North America, as an Originator, may from time to time at its option, by
notice to the Buyer on or prior to the date of the proposed contribution, identify Receivables that it proposes to contribute to the Buyer as a capital contribution. On the date of and after giving effect to each contribution, the Buyer shall own
the Receivables so identified and contributed and all Related Rights. 

  
 3 












 SECTION 1.5    Purchase and Sale Termination Date. The
“Purchase and Sale Termination Date” shall be the earlier to occur of (a) the date the Purchase Facility is terminated pursuant to Section 8.2(a) and (b) the Payment Date immediately following the
day on which the Originators shall have given written notice to the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and each Lender at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) that the Originators desire to terminate this Agreement. 

SECTION 1.6    Intention of the Parties. It is the express intent of each Originator and the Buyer that each
conveyance by such Originator to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement of the Receivables, including without limitation, all Receivables, if any, constituting accounts or general intangibles each as defined in the UCC, and all Related Rights be
construed as a valid and perfected sale or contribution and absolute assignment (without recourse except as provided herein) of such Receivables and Related Rights by such Originator to the Buyer (rather than the grant of a security interest to
secure a debt or other obligation of such Originator) and that the right, title and interest in and to such Receivables and Related Rights conveyed to the Buyer be prior to the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time,
including, without limitation, lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through such Originator. However, if, contrary to the mutual intent of the parties, any conveyance of Receivables, including without limitation any
Receivables constituting accounts or general intangibles each as defined in the UCC, and all Related Rights is not construed to be both a valid and perfected sale or contribution and absolute assignment of such Receivables and Related Rights, and a
conveyance of such Receivables and Related Rights that is prior to the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time, including without limitation lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through such
Originator, then, it is the intent of such Originator and the Buyer that (i) this Agreement also shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC and (ii) such Originator shall be deemed to have
granted to the Buyer as of the date of this Agreement, and such Originator hereby grants to the Buyer a security interest in, to and under all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to: (A) the Receivables and the Related
Rights now existing and hereafter created by such Originator transferred or purported to be transferred hereunder, (B) all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and (C) all books and records of such
Originator to the extent related to any of the foregoing. 
 ARTICLE II 

PURCHASE REPORT; CALCULATION OF PURCHASE PRICE 

SECTION 2.1    Purchase Report. On the Closing Date and on each date when a Pool Report is due to be delivered
under the Receivables Financing Agreement (each such date, a “Purchase Report Date”), the Servicer shall deliver to the Buyer and each Originator a report in substantially the form of Exhibit A (each such report being herein
called a “Purchase Report”) setting forth, among other things: 
 (a)    Receivables purchased by the
Buyer from each Originator on the Closing Date (in the case of the Purchase Report to be delivered on the Closing Date); 

  
 4 












 (b)    Receivables purchased or accepted as a contribution by the Buyer
from each Originator during the Fiscal Month immediately preceding such Purchase Report Date (in the case of each subsequent Purchase Report); and 

(c)    the calculations of reductions of the Purchase Price for any Receivables as provided in
Section 3.3 (a) and (b). 
 SECTION 2.2    Calculation of Purchase Price.
The “Purchase Price” to be paid to each Originator in accordance with the terms of Article III for the Receivables and the Related Rights that are purchased hereunder from such Originator shall be determined in accordance
with the following formula: 
  

					
	PP	  	=	  	OB x (1-FMVD)
			
	where:	  		  	
			
	PP	  	=	  	Purchase Price for each Receivable as calculated on the relevant Payment Date.
			
	OB	  	=	  	The Outstanding Balance of such Receivable on the relevant Payment Date.
			
	FMVD	  	        =        	  	Fair Market Value Discount, which is equal to one and one half percent (1.50%) or as reasonably determined by the Servicer.


 “Payment Date” means (i) the Closing Date and (ii) each Business Day
thereafter that the Originators are open for business. 
 The Buyer may elect to pay accrued Servicing Fees to Sylvamo North America in its
capacity as Servicer on any Payment Date when the conditions to a Release are satisfied, which amounts can be incorporated into the aggregate Purchase Price owing. 

ARTICLE III 
 PAYMENT OF
PURCHASE PRICE 
 SECTION 3.1    Initial Purchase Price Payment. 

(a)    On the Closing Date, Sylvamo North America, as Originator, shall and hereby does contribute, to the capital of the
Buyer, the Receivables having an aggregate Outstanding Balance of at least the Required Capital Amount. 
 (b)    On the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer agrees to pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the purchase to be made from such Originator on the Closing Date (i) to the extent the Buyer has cash available
therefor (and such payment is not prohibited by the Receivables Financing Agreement), partially, in cash (in an amount to be agreed between the Buyer and such Originator and set forth in the initial Purchase Report), (ii) the remainder by issuing a
promissory note in the form of Exhibit B to such Originator 

  
 5 












 
(each such promissory note, as it may be amended, supplemented, endorsed or otherwise modified from time to time, together with all promissory notes issued from time to time in substitution
therefor or renewal thereof in accordance with the Transaction Documents, each being herein called a “Subordinated Note”) with an initial principal amount equal to the remaining Purchase Price payable to such Originator not paid in
cash or contributed to the Buyer’s capital, and (iii) at the Originator’s election, by accepting a contribution to the Buyer’s capital. 

SECTION 3.2    Subsequent Purchase Price Payments. On each Payment Date subsequent to the Closing Date, on the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer shall pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the Receivables and the Related Rights generated by such Originator since the immediately preceding Payment Date in
accordance with Section 1.2(b): 
 (a)    First, in cash to the extent the Buyer
has cash available therefor (and such payment is not prohibited under the Receivables Financing Agreement); and 

(b)    Second, (i) to the extent any portion of the Purchase Price remains unpaid, the principal amount
outstanding under the applicable Subordinated Note shall, subject to subclause (ii) below, be automatically increased by an amount equal to the lesser of (x) such remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price and (y) the
maximum increase in the principal balance of the applicable Subordinated Note that could be made without rendering the Buyer’s Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount and (ii) to the extent any portion of the Purchase Price remains
unpaid after the allocations in clause (a) above, solely in the case of Sylvamo North America, at Sylvamo North America’s election (in its sole discretion), by accepting a contribution to the Borrower’s capital in an amount
equal to the remaining unpaid balance of such Purchase Price; 
 provided, however, that if more than one Originator is selling Receivables to
the Buyer on the date of such purchase, the Buyer shall make cash payments among the Originators in such a way as to minimize to the greatest extent practicable the aggregate principal amounts outstanding under the Subordinated Notes. 

“Net Worth” has the meaning set forth under “Borrower’s Net Worth” in the Receivables Financing Agreement.

 All amounts paid by the Buyer to any Originator in respect of the Subordinated Note of such Originator shall be allocated first to
the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the Subordinated Note of such Originator and second to the repayment of the principal outstanding on the Subordinated Note of such Originator to the extent of such outstanding principal thereof as
of the date of such payment before such amounts may be allocated for any other purpose. The Servicer shall make all appropriate record keeping entries with respect to each of the Subordinated Notes to reflect the foregoing payments and payments and
reductions made pursuant to Section 3.3, and the Servicer’s books and records shall constitute rebuttable presumptive evidence of the principal amount of, and accrued interest on, each of the Subordinated Notes at any
time. Each Originator hereby irrevocably authorizes the Servicer to mark the Subordinated Notes “CANCELED” and to return such Subordinated Notes to the Buyer upon the final payment thereof after the occurrence of the Purchase and Sale
Termination Date. 

  
 6 












 SECTION 3.3    Settlement as to Specific Receivables and
Dilution. 
 (a)    If, (i) on the day of purchase or contribution of any Receivable from an Originator
hereunder, any of the representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.16, 5.20, 5.29, 5.30, 5.33, 5.34 or 5.35 are not true with respect to such Receivable or (ii) as a result of any action
or inaction (other than solely as a result of the failure to collect such Receivable due to a discharge in bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceeding or other credit related reasons with respect to the relevant Obligor) of such Originator, on any
subsequent day, any of such representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.16, 5.20, 5.29, 5.30, 5.33, 5.34 or 5.35 is no longer true with respect to such Receivable, then the Purchase Price
for such Receivable shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and shall be accounted to the Buyer as provided in clause (c) below; provided, that if the Buyer thereafter receives payment on
account of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable, the Buyer promptly shall deliver such funds to such Originator. 

(b)    If, on any day, the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable purchased hereunder is either (i) reduced, adjusted

to any Originator shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or required by Applicable Law and unless otherwise instructed by the Servicer (with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent, be applied

other indebtedness of such Obligor. 
 SECTION 7.5    Performance of Obligations. Each Originator shall
(i) perform all of its obligations under the Contracts related to the Receivables generated by such Originator to the same extent as if interests in such Receivables had not been transferred hereunder, and the exercise by the Buyer or the

Originator and their creation and satisfaction, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SALE TERMINATION EVENTS 
 SECTION 8.1    Purchase and Sale Termination Events. Each of the following events
or occurrences described in this Section 8.1 shall constitute a “Purchase and Sale Termination Event” (each event which with notice or the passage of time or both would become a Purchase and Sale

(a)    the Termination Date shall have occurred; or 

(b)    any Originator shall fail to make when due any payment or deposit required to be made by it under this Agreement or
any other Transaction Document to which it is a party and such failure shall continue unremedied for two (2) Business Days; or 

(c)    any representation or warranty made or deemed to be made by any Originator (or any of its officers) under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party or any information or report delivered by any Originator pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, shall prove to have been incorrect or
untrue in any material respect when made or deemed made or delivered, and such incorrect representation or warranty shall continue to be untrue for fifteen (15) calendar days after such Originator has knowledge of or receives notice thereof; or

 (d)    any Originator shall fail to perform or observe the covenant set forth in

 29

 30 












 
or any of its ERISA Affiliates fails to pay when due, after the expiration of any applicable grace period, any installment payment with respect to its withdrawal liability under Section 4201

(f)    any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy) of an Obligor to the payment of any Pool
Receivable (including, without limitation, a defense based on such Pool Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim
resulting from or relating to collection activities with respect to such Pool Receivable; 
 (g)    any failure of such
Originator to perform any of its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof and of each other Transaction Document related to Pool Receivables or to timely and fully comply with the Credit and Collection Policy in regard to each

 32 












 (l)    any suit or claim related to the Pool Receivables originated by

 provided that
such indemnity shall not be available to any Purchase and Sale Indemnified Party to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and

insufficient to hold such Purchase and Sale Indemnified Party harmless, then each of the Originators, jointly and severally, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Purchase and Sale Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim,


  
 33 












 
damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Originator and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and such Purchase and Sale Indemnified
Party, on the other hand, in the matters contemplated by this Agreement as well as the relative fault of the Originator and its Affiliates and such Purchase and Sale Indemnified Party with respect to such loss, claim, damage or liability and any
other relevant equitable considerations. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of such Originator under this Section 9.1 shall be in addition to any liability which such Originator may otherwise have,

Indemnified Parties. Any indemnification or contribution under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart hereof by facsimile or other electronic

Transaction Documents shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or electronic records, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping
system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar
state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 SECTION 10.11    Acknowledgment and
Agreement. By execution below, each Originator expressly acknowledges and agrees that all of the Buyer’s rights, title, and interests in, to, and under this Agreement (but not its obligations), shall be assigned by the Buyer to the
Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) pursuant to the Receivables Financing Agreement, and each Originator consents to such assignment. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
are third-party beneficiaries of the rights of the Buyer arising hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which any Originator is a party, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction

Receivables Financing Agreement, be used to make such payment. Any amount which the Buyer does not pay pursuant to the operation of the preceding sentence shall not constitute a claim (as defined in §101 of the Bankruptcy Code) against or
corporate obligation of the Buyer by such Originator for any such insufficiency unless and until the provisions of the foregoing sentence are satisfied. The agreements in this Section 10.12 shall survive any termination of
this Agreement. 

  
 37

other Transaction Documents are the product of mutual negotiations by the parties thereto and their counsel, and no party shall be deemed the draftsperson of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any provision hereof or thereof or to

Agreement which are prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition
or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

SECTION 10.15    Limited Recourse. Except as explicitly set forth herein, the obligations of the Buyer and any
Originator under this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents to which it is a party are solely the obligations of the Buyer and such Originator. No recourse under any Transaction Document shall be had against, and no liability shall attach to,
any officer, manager, stockholder, employee, director, or beneficiary, whether directly or indirectly, of the Buyer or any Originator. The agreements in this Section 10.15 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
