	1.
	Name and Purpose.  The name of this plan is the "2011 Fee Deferral Plan for Directors of Weyerhaeuser Company" (the "Plan").

	(b)
	"Board" means the Board of Directors of the Company, provided that no member of the Board shall participate in or cast a vote with respect to any matter which specifically relates to that individual, as opposed to relating to the Directors as a group.

EXHIBIT 10(p)


		
	(b)
	Voluntarily Deferred Fees.  Except as provided in Subparagraph (d) below for Fees paid in the form of RSUs, a Director may elect to defer receipt of a percentage of all of his or her Fees earned in any Plan Year in accordance with this Subparagraph (b).  The procedure for this election is set forth in Subparagraph (c) below.  Two forms of Voluntarily Deferred Fees are provided for.


		
	(i)
	"Interest Rate Deferral" ‐ This form of deferral provides for the payment of the amount to be deferred with interest, commencing with the Commencement Date elected by the Director, in the form of a lump sum or annual installments over up to 20 years, as elected by the Director.  Details as to the amount and timing of payments are set forth in Paragraph 5.


		
	(ii)
	"Stock Equivalent Deferral" ‐ This form of deferral provides for the payment of the amount to be deferred, increased or decreased by reference to the market price and dividend history of Common Shares, commencing with the Commencement Date elected by the Director, in the form of a lump sum or annual installments over up to 20 years, as elected by the Director. Details as to the amount and timing of payments are set forth in Paragraph 6.


		
	(c)
	Election Procedure.  A Director shall notify the Company in writing on or prior to the December 31 preceding each Plan Year of his or her election to defer the receipt of a percentage or all of any Fees described in Subparagraph (b) that are to be earned starting in the Plan Year about to commence; provided, however, that a Director who is newly elected or appointed to the Board after the commencement of a Plan Year may notify the Company of such deferral election at any time prior to the effective date of his or her election or appointment provided that the requirements of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(a)(7) (or any successor provision) are satisfied.  Any Fees or part thereof which the Director has not elected to defer shall be paid as provided in Subparagraph (a) above.  Each notice to defer shall:


		
	(i)
	state the percentage of the Fees to be deferred;


		
	(ii)
	designate the percentage of the total amount to be deferred as an Interest Rate Deferral and the percentage of the total amount to be deferred as a Stock Equivalent Deferral; and


		
	(iii)
	state the Commencement Date for payment of the Voluntarily Deferred Fees and the number of years (from one to 20) elected for payment.


An election to defer Fees is irrevocable.  If a Director fails to make a payment election for any Plan Year, any Voluntarily Deferred Fees for such Plan Year pursuant to this Subparagraph 4(c) shall be payable in a single lump sum payment following the Director's Separation from Service as if the Director had elected Separation from Service as the Commencement Date.
		
	(d)
	Fees Paid in the Form of RSUs.  In the event that the Board designates that any Fee to be paid to a Director shall be paid in the form of RSUs, the following provisions shall apply:  


		
	(i)
	Grant of RSUs.  Grants of RSUs under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written or electronic instrument that shall contain such terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the Board, upon recommendation by the Committee, shall deem advisable and that are not inconsistent with the Plan.  The number of RSUs and fractions thereof granted to a Director shall be determined by dividing the amount of Fees to be paid in the form of RSUs by the average of the high and low price of a 







EXHIBIT 10(p)


Common Share on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant.  Subject to Paragraphs 11 and 12(e), the terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions of any grant of RSUs may be modified in any manner approved by the Committee or the Board in its discretion, including, but not limited to, accelerating the vesting of any outstanding RSUs granted under the Plan. 
		
	(ii)
	Adjustments.  A Director’s RSUs shall be credited with dividend equivalents in the same manner as set forth with respect to Stock Equivalents in Subparagraph 6(b) and shall be subject to adjustment in the same manner as set forth in Subparagraph 6(d).  Any additional RSUs credited to a Director pursuant to this provision shall be subject to the same terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the original grant of RSUs as set forth in the instrument evidencing the award. 


		
	(iii)
	Designated Stock Equivalents.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Director may elect to defer the settlement of a percentage of his or her RSUs in accordance with the procedures set forth below.  


		
	(I)
	Any such deferrals shall be credited to the Director’s account under the Plan on the date of grant of such RSUs in the form of an equal number of Stock Equivalents (referred to herein as "Designated Stock Equivalents"), which shall thereafter be subject to the investment, forfeiture and payment provisions of Paragraphs 6 and 7 of the Plan as well as this Subparagraph 4(d)(iii). Any RSUs or part thereof which the Director does not elect to defer shall be settled as provided in the instrument evidencing the award. 


		
	(II)
	A Director shall notify the Company in writing on or prior to the December 31 preceding each Plan Year of his or her election to defer the settlement of a percentage of the RSUs to be granted and starting to be earned in the Plan Year about to commence; provided, however, that a Director who is newly elected or appointed to the Board after the commencement of a Plan Year may notify the Company of such deferral election at any time prior to the effective date of his or her election or appointment provided that the requirements of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(a)(7) (or any successor provision) are satisfied.  Each notice to defer shall: 


		
	(1) 
	state the percentage of the RSUs to be deferred as Designated Stock Equivalents; and 


		
	(2)
	state the Commencement Date for the payment of the Designated Stock Equivalents and the number of years (from one to 20) elected for payment.  


		
	(III)
	An election to defer RSUs in the form of Designated Stock Equivalents shall be irrevocable.  Should a Director make a deferral election but fail to make a payment election for any Designated Stock Equivalents, such Designated Stock Equivalents shall be payable in a single lump sum payment following the Director's Separation from Service as if the Director had elected Separation from Service as the Commencement Date. 


		
	(IV)
	A Director shall be entitled to receive payments with respect to Designated Stock Equivalents as provided in Subparagraph 6(c).  







EXHIBIT 10(p)


		
	(V)
	The provisions of the Plan, including those relating to Voluntarily Deferred Fees, shall apply to Designated Stock Equivalents to the extent they are not inconsistent with this Subparagraph (d)(iii).


		
	5.
	Interest Rate Deferral.


		
	(a)
	Accounts.  Any Voluntarily Deferred Fees designated as Interest Rate Deferrals shall be credited to a Director's account as of the day it would otherwise have been paid in cash and shall thereafter accrue interest at a rate to be designated from time to time by the Board, with such interest to be compounded monthly.


		
	(b)
	Payments.  A Director shall be entitled to receive cash payments with respect to Fees deferred under the Interest Rate Deferral option together with interest accrued to the date of payment in each year of the applicable period as elected under Subparagraph 4(c); provided, however, that in the event payments commence based on a Director's Separation from Service, no payment shall be made earlier than six months after the date of such Separation from Service if the Director is then a Specified Employee, in which case any suspended payment shall occur on the earliest date permitted by this Subparagraph and Section 409A.  The amount of cash to be paid each year with respect to the amount of Interest Rate Deferrals from any Plan Year shall be computed by multiplying a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is the number of years remaining in the applicable payment period for such Interest Rate Deferrals, by the remaining portion of such Interest Rate Deferrals plus accrued interest on such Deferred Fees (e.g., 1/10th is paid in the first year of a ten-year payment period; 1/9th of the remaining balance in the second year, 1/8th of the remaining balance in the third year, etc., over the ten years).


		
	6.
	Stock Equivalent Deferral.


		
	(a)
	Accounts.  Any Voluntarily Deferred Fees designated as Stock Equivalents shall be divided by the average of the high and low price of the Common Shares on the New York Stock Exchange on the date such Fees would otherwise have been paid in cash to determine the number of deferred Stock Equivalents or fractions thereof credited to a Director's account.  Any Designated Stock Equivalents shall be equal in number to the number of RSUs a Director elects to defer, but shall, along with any increments thereto pursuant to Subparagraph 6(b) or (d) below, continue to be subject to the forfeiture provisions (but not the payment provisions) of the instrument evidencing the award of the RSUs granted under Subparagraph 4(d)(i) in the same manner as if no deferral election had been made. Any Stock Equivalent Deferrals shall be promptly credited to a Director's account.  


		
	(b)
	Dividend Equivalents.  All such deferred Stock Equivalents shall be credited with an amount equivalent to each dividend declared on Common Shares.  The amount of such dividend equivalents shall be divided by the price per share of common stock of the Company on the payable date for such dividend to determine the number of additional deferred Stock Equivalents or fractions thereof to be credited to a Director's account. 


		
	(c)
	Payments.


		
	(i)
	Payment with respect to any Stock Equivalent Deferrals credited to a Director’s account shall be made the in form of Common Shares, equal in number to the number of Stock Equivalents with respect to which payment is being made, plus cash for any fractional shares.  Payments of such Deferred Fees shall be made following the Commencement Date elected by a Director; provided, however, no payment shall be made earlier than six months after the date of a Director’s Separation from Service if 







EXHIBIT 10(p)


the Director is then a Specified Employee, in which case any suspended payment shall occur on the earliest date permitted by this Subparagraph and Section 409A.  
		
	(ii)
	In the event a Director has elected payment of such Stock Equivalent Deferrals over a number of years rather than as a lump sum, the number of Common Shares to be paid each year shall be computed by multiplying a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is the number of years remaining in the elected payment period, by the remaining number of Stock Equivalents credited to the Director's account, to determine the number of Stock Equivalents for which payment is to be made. 


		
	(d)
	Change in Common Shares.  In the event, at any time or from time to time, of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination or exchange of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, change in control or other change in the Company's structure, the Committee shall make proportional adjustments in the number of Stock Equivalents credited to a Director’s account.  Any such adjustments made by the Committee shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes of the Plan.


		
	(e)
	Price per Share.  The term "price per share" shall refer to the closing price of the common stock of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange on the Trading Day in question.


		
	7.
	General Provisions Related to Deferred Fees.


		
	(a)
	Date of Payments.  Payments with respect to Interest Rate Deferrals and Stock Equivalent Deferrals shall be made annually prior to March 15 based on the election made by a Director.  Payments with respect to Interest Rate Deferrals generally shall be made in January of each year.  Payments with respect to Stock Equivalents generally shall be made in February of each year.  If the Commencement Date elected by a Director occurs during a year, payments shall begin in January or February, as applicable, of the following year.  


		
	(b)
	Segregation of Funds.  The Company shall be under no obligation to segregate any Deferred Fees during the Deferral Period.  Such unsegregated funds are subject to the claims of the Company's general creditors during the Deferral Period.


		
	(c)
	Payment on Death.  In the event of a Director’s death, all of the Director’s Interest Rate Deferrals and Stock Equivalent Deferrals under the Plan, including any unpaid installments, shall be paid to the Director’s Beneficiary in a lump sum in the calendar year immediately following the year of the Director’s death.  


		
	(d)
	Restrictions on Deferred Fees.  No Director's interest in any Deferred Fees is assignable, either by voluntary or involuntary assignment or by operation of law.  No part of any Deferred Fees, regardless of the form thereof, may be paid over, loaned, sold, assigned, transferred, discounted, pledged as collateral for a loan or in any other way encumbered until the end of the Deferral Period with respect to such Deferred Fees.


		
	8.
	Administration and Amendment of the Plan.


		
	(a)
	Powers of the Committee.  Full power and authority to construe and interpret the Plan shall be vested in the Committee as, from time to time, constituted by the Board.  The Committee shall have the authority to modify any of the terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions relating to any Fees under the Plan in any manner not inconsistent with the Plan.  Decisions hereunder by the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties, including each Director and the Company.







EXHIBIT 10(p)


		
	(b)
	Expenses of the Plan.  The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company.


		
	(c)
	Amendment and Termination.

	(d)
	Directors' Rights.  No amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall affect any deferral already made, and in the event of any such change, any Deferred Fees credited to a Director's account shall be paid as provided herein.  No Director shall have any right or interest in the Plan or its continuance or in his or her continued participation in the Plan, other than in the Deferred Fees credited to his or her account.  The existence of the Plan does not extend to any Director a right to continued Director status with the Company, and each Director is deemed to have agreed to the terms herein.


		
	9.
	Notice to the Plan Recordkeeper.  Any notice required to be furnished by a Director to the Plan recordkeeper shall be deemed to be provided if sent via fax or other electronic delivery method or via first class mail, in accordance with information and instructions communicated by the Plan recordkeeper to the Directors from time to time.


		
	10.
	Effective Date.  The Plan is effective as of November 1, 2010.  The Plan applies to Fees earned in 2011 and subsequent years that are subject to deferral elections made on or after November 1, 2010 or designated by the Board as Stock Equivalents.  The Plan is most recently amended and restated effective January 1, 2016. 


		
	11.
	No Acceleration.  The acceleration of the time or schedule of any payment due under the Plan is generally prohibited.  The Board may, however, accelerate certain distributions under the Plan to the extent permitted under Section 409A.


		
	12.
	Miscellaneous.


		
	(a)
	Rights Unsecured.  The rights of a Director or his or her Beneficiary to receive a payment hereunder shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company, and neither the Director nor his or her Beneficiary shall have any rights in or against any amount credited to his or her account or any other specific assets of the Company.  The Plan at all times shall be considered entirely unfunded for tax purposes.  Any funds set aside by the Company for the purpose of meeting its obligations under the Plan, including any amounts held by a trustee, shall continue for all purposes to be part of the general assets of the Company and shall be available to the Company's general creditors in the event of the Company's bankruptcy or insolvency.  The Company's obligation under the Plan shall be that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay benefits in the future.  The Plan shall not be subject to any mistake of fact claim.


		
	(b)
	Taxes.  The Company or any other payer may withhold from a benefit payment under the Plan or from any other compensation payable by the Company to the Director any federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to a deferral, payment or accrual under the Plan, and shall report such payments and other Plan-related information to the appropriate governmental agencies as required under applicable law.







EXHIBIT 10(p)


		
	(c)
	No Guarantee of Tax Consequences.  None of the Company, the Board, the Committee or any other person guarantees that any particular federal or state income, payroll, personal property or other tax consequence shall occur because of participation in the Plan.  A Director should consult with professional tax advisors regarding all questions relative to the tax consequences arising from participation in the Plan.


		
	(d)
	Successors and Assigns.  The terms and conditions of the Plan, as amended and in effect from time to time, shall be binding on the Company's successors and assigns, including, without limitation, any entity into which the Company may be merged or with which the Company may be consolidated.


		
	(e)
	Applicable Law and Venue.  The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by the laws of the United States, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Washington without giving effect to the choice or conflicts of law provisions thereof.  The Company intends that the Plan constitutes, and shall be construed and administered as, an unfunded plan of deferred compensation.  In addition, the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, including any official guidance issued thereunder.  Notwithstanding any other provision, the Plan shall be interpreted, operated and administered in a manner consistent with this intention to the extent the Board deems necessary to comply with such requirements of Section 409A and to avoid the imposition of any additional tax thereunder.  In addition, notwithstanding anything in Subparagraph 8(d) to the contrary, the Plan shall be deemed to be amended, and any deferrals and distributions hereunder shall be deemed to be modified, to the extent necessary to comply with such  requirements of Section 409A.  If the Company or any Director or Beneficiary initiates litigation related to the Plan, the venue for such action shall be King County, Washington.
