              1.1

      Board adopted the Plan for the purpose of assisting the Company in
      attracting and retaining key management employees who are in a position to
      make a significant contribution to the growth and profitability of the

      endeavor.  Appleton competitively positions its compensation and
      rewards programs relative to general and paper industry companies of
      similar revenue.  The Plan accomplishes its objective by
      providing eligible employees with a competitive long-term compensation
      opportunity tied to the performance of the
  Company.

              3.1

            	
              The
      Plan provides for annual grants of long-term cash-based performance

              3.2

              4.1

            	
              Before
      the beginning of each Performance Cycle, the Committee shall designate the
      Eligible Employees for the Plan Year who are so designated for the
      Performance Cycle and shall notify Participants of such
      designation.  At or shortly after commencement of the
      Performance Cycle, a Target Award shall be established for each
      Participant.  Target Awards will be expressed as a fixed dollar
      amount.

            


    

    


    
      	
              4.2

            	
              At
      the end of the Performance Cycle, the Final Award will be valued based
      upon the Committee’s evaluation of the Company’s performance against the
      established Performance Measures.   The Performance
      Measures for any given Performance Cycle shall be as set forth in an
      Appendix to this Plan.

            


    

    


    
      	
               
      

            	
              The
      Performance Measures will be reviewed and updated, as determined by the
      Committee, at the beginning of each Performance Cycle.  The
      Performance Measures used to determine the Final Award may change from
      Performance Cycle to Performance Cycle to reflect modifications in the
      Company’s strategic objectives.  Such changes may be made, as
      deemed necessary by the Committee, to serve the best interests of the
      Company.

              4.3.

            	
              In
      the event of a Participant’s voluntary or involuntary termination of
      employment with the Company before the end of the Performance Cycle, no
      award or other amount shall be payable to such Participant under the Plan
      except as provided under Sections 4.5 and 4.6.  Any awards or
      other amounts forfeited under the Plan shall not be reallocated to
      remaining Participants.

            


    

    


    
      	
              4.4  

            	
              In
      the event of Participant’s voluntary or involuntary termination of
      employment with the Company at the end of the Performance Cycle, a
      violation of any express restrictive covenant between Participant and
      Company (whether relating to obligations of confidentiality,
      non-competition, non-solicitation or otherwise), Participant forfeits any
      and all rights to payment relating to the
Plan.

            


    

    


    
      	
              4.5  

            	
              In
      the event of a Change of Control during a Performance Cycle, the
      Participant shall, with respect to each outstanding Target Award, receive
      a “prorated Final Award” based upon 100% of the Participant’s outstanding
      Target Award as of the end of the applicable Performance
      Cycle.  The “prorated Final Award” is determined based on the
      number of months of employment completed during the Performance Cycle up
      to and including the month of the Change of Control divided by total
      number of months for the Performance Cycle multiplied by 100% of the
      Target Award.  A Participant shall not be entitled to any other
      amounts under the Plan with respect to such Target
  Award.

            


    

     

    
      	
              4.6  

            	
              Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, in the event of a Participant’s Retirement, Disability or
      death, during a Performance Cycle, a “prorated award” is paid to the
      Participant (or the Participant’s estate or designated beneficiary in the
      case of death) for each then outstanding Performance Cycle.  The
      amount of any “prorated award” is determined by reference to months of
      employment completed during the Performance Cycle, the Target Award and
      the Company’s performance against the established Performance Measures,
      determined as of the end of the month of the retirement, disability or
      death.  For example, for the 2008-2010 Performance Cycle, if a
      Participant’s Target Award was $10,000 and he/she retired in July 2009 and
      the Revenue Growth and ROIC Growth determined at the end of the month of
      the retirement, disability or death was 2.50% and 9.33% respectively, then
      such Participant’s Final Award would be ($10,000 x 104%) x 50% or
      $5,200.

              Without
      limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall have full
      power and authority, in its absolute discretion, in accordance with the
      Plan, to:  determine eligibility to participate in the Plan;
      determine the rights and benefits with respect to all claims, demands and
      actions arising out of the provisions of the Plan and any Participant,
      beneficiary, deceased Participant or other person having or claiming to
      have any interest under the Plan; interpret and construe the provisions of
      the Plan; decide all questions and settle all controversies arising in the
      administration, interpretation, construction and application of, or
      otherwise in connection with, the Plan; determine whether any Participant
      is considered disabled in accordance with this Plan; employ accountants,
      counsel, consultants and other persons the Committee deems necessary in
      connection with the administration and operation of the Plan; and take all
      other necessary or appropriate actions to fulfill its duties under this
      Plan.

      exercising its power and authority hereunder, the Committee shall at all
      times exercise good faith, apply standards of uniform application and
      refrain from arbitrary action.  Benefits will be paid only if
      the Committee determines in its discretion that the applicant is entitled
      to them.

              The
      adoption and maintenance of the Plan shall not be deemed to be a contract
      of employment or service between the Company and any employee of the
      Company.  Nothing contained herein shall give any such employee
      the right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company or to
      interfere with the right of the Company to discharge the employee, nor
      shall it give the Company the right to require the employee to remain in
      its employ or service or to interfere with the employee’s right to
      terminate employment or service.  No person shall have any
      rights or claims in relation to the Plan except in accordance with the
      provisions of the Plan.  The adoption of the Plan shall not be
      deemed to give any employee of the Company any right to be selected as a
      Participant or receive any awards under the
  Plan.

            


    

     

    
      	
              7.2

            	
              The
      Plan shall not be construed to require the Company to fund any of the
      amounts payable under the Plan or to set aside or earmark any monies or
      other assets specifically for payments under the Plan.  If the
      Company decides to establish any advance accrued reserve on its books
      against the future expense of benefits payable hereunder, or if the
      Company determines to fund a trust under the Plan, such reserve or trust
      shall not under any circumstances be deemed to be an asset of the
      Plan.

            


    

     

    


    
      	
              7.3

            	
              The
      Plan is “unfunded” and benefits payable hereunder shall be paid by the
      Company out of its general assets.  No Participant or
      beneficiary thereof shall have any interest in any specific asset of the
      Company as a result of the Plan.  Nothing contained in the Plan
      and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall create or
      be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship
      amongst the Company, the Committee and the Participants and any
      beneficiary thereof or any other person.  Any funds that may be
      invested under the provisions of the Plan shall continue for all purposes
      to be part of the general funds of the Company and no person other than
      the Company shall by virtue of the provisions of the Plan have any
      interest in such funds.  To the extent that any person acquires
      a right to receive payments from the Company under the Plan, such right
      shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of
      the Company.

              Any
      liability of the Company to any Participant in relation to the Plan shall
      be based solely upon contractual obligations created by the
      Plan.  None of the Company, the Committee nor any other person
      participating in any determination of any question under the Plan, or in
      the interpretation, administration or application of the Plan, shall have
      any liability, in the absence of bad faith, to any party for any action
      taken or not taken in connection with the Plan, except as may expressly be
      provided by statute.  The Company shall not be liable to any
      Participant or any other person as to any tax consequence expected, but
      not realized, by any Participant or other person in relation to
      participation in the Plan.

            


    

     

    
      	
              7.5

            	
              Notwithstanding
      any other provision of the Plan, all rights to any payments under the
      Plan, shall be discontinued and forfeited, and the Company will have no
      further obligation to the Participant if the Participant is discharged
      from employment with the Company or its subsidiaries and affiliates for
      Cause, or the Participant performs during the course of his employment
      with the Company or its subsidiaries and affiliates acts of willful
      malfeasance or gross negligence in a matter of material importance to the
      Company.  Any decision of the Committee with respect to the
      application of the provisions of this Section 7.5 shall have a presumption
      of correctness, and the burden shall be on the Participant to rebut such
      presumption by clear and convincing
evidence.

            


    

     

    
      	
              7.6

            	
              Except
      as otherwise provided in Section 6.4, no benefit payable at any time under
      the Plan shall be subject in any manner to alienation, sale, transfer,
      assignment, pledge, attachment, or encumbrance of any
  kind.

            


    

     

    
      	
              7.7

            	
              Any
      payment or other distribution of amounts under the Plan may be reduced by
      any amount (including employment taxes) required to be withheld by the
      Company under any applicable law, rule, regulation, order or other
      requirement of any governmental authority.  If a Participant
      becomes entitled to a distribution under the Plan, and if at such time
      such Participant has outstanding any debt, obligation or other liability
      representing an amount owing to the Company, then the Company may offset
      such amount against the amount otherwise distributable to the Participant
      under this Plan to the extent permitted by applicable
  law.

            


    

     

    
      	
              7.8

            	
              If
      any payments or benefits provided to a Participant under this Plan (the
      “Payments”) will be subject to the tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code
      (the “Excise Tax”), the Company shall pay to the Participant, at the time
      the Payments are paid to the Participant, an additional amount (the
      “Gross-Up Payment”) such that the net amount retained by the Participant,
      after deduction of any Excise Tax on the Payments and any federal, state
      and local income tax and Excise Tax on the Gross-Up Payment itself, shall
      be equal to the Payments.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              For
      purposes of determining whether any of the Payments will be subject to the
      Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax: (i) any other payments or
      benefits received by the Participant in connection with a “Change of
      Control” (as such term is defined in the Appleton Papers Inc. Long Term
      Incentive Plan) or the Participant’s termination of employment shall be
      treated as “parachute payments” within the meaning of section 280G(b)(2)
      of the Code, and all “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of
      section 280G(b)(1) shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless
      in the opinion of tax counsel selected by the Company’s independent
      auditors and acceptable to the Participant such other payments or benefits
      (in whole or in part) do not constitute parachute payments, or such excess
      parachute payments (in whole or in part) represent reasonable compensation
      for services actually rendered within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4) of
      the Code; (ii) the amount of the Payments which shall be treated as
      subject to the Excise Tax shall be equal to the lesser of (A) the total
      amount of the Payments or (B) the amount of excess parachute payments
      within the meaning of Sections 280G(b)(1) (after applying clause (i)
      above, and after deducting any excess parachute payments in respect of
      which payments have been made); and (iii) the value of any non-cash
      benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by the
      Company’s independent auditors in accordance with the principles of
      Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code.  For purposes of
      determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, the Participant shall be
      deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal
      income taxation in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to
      be made and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates of
      taxation in the state and locality of the Participant’s residence on the
      date of the Participant’s termination of employment, net of the maximum
      reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction
      of such state and local taxes.

      so apply, and wherever any words are used herein in the singular form they

    If the
actual Average ROIC or Average Revenue Growth is between any two 3-Year Average
ROIC %s and/or 3-Year Average Revenue Growth %s, then the amount of the Final
Award shall be calculated by linear interpolation.  If the achievement
of any 3-year Average Revenue Growth or 3-Year Average ROIC falls below the
minimum thresholds set forth on the matrix above (or for future years, the
appropriate matrix), the Participant’s Final Award will be
$0.  Regardless of Company performance, awards will be capped at 150%
of the Target Award.
