                     CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    GENERAL

      The information contained in the following notes to the financial
statements is condensed from that which would appear in the annual financial
statements; accordingly, the financial statements included herein should be
reviewed in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto
contained in the Form 10-K. Any capitalized terms used but not defined in these
Condensed Notes to Financial Statements are defined in the "Glossary of Defined
Terms" contained in Appendix A. Accounting measurements at interim dates
inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end. The results
of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the entire year.

      The financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, they
include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of
the Company at June 30, 2001, and the results of operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, and the cash flows for the six months

3.    CONTINGENCIES

      Regulatory and environmental matters play a significant role in the
Company's business, which is subject to a variety of California and federal laws
and regulations, as well as the HCP and SYP and Pacific Lumber's timber
operator's license, dealing with timber harvesting practices, threatened and
endangered species and habitat for such species, and air and water quality.

      The SYP complies with the California Board of Forestry and Fire
Protection regulations requiring timber companies to project timber growth and
harvest on their timberlands over a 100-year planning period and to demonstrate
that their projected average annual harvest for any decade within a 100-year
planning period will not exceed the average annual harvest level during the last
decade of the 100-year planning period. The SYP is effective for 10 years
(subject to review after five years) and may be amended by Pacific Lumber,
subject to approval by the CDF. Revised SYPs will be prepared every decade that
address the harvest level based upon reassessment of changes in the resource
base and other factors. The HCP and the Permits allow incidental "take" of
certain species located on the Company's timberlands which species have been
listed as endangered or threatened under the ESA and/or the CESA so long as
there is no "jeopardy" to the continued existence of such species. The HCP
identifies the measures to be instituted in order to minimize and mitigate the
anticipated level of take to the greatest extent practicable. The SYP is also
subject to certain of these provisions. The HCP and related Permits have a term
of 50 years.

      Under the CWA, the EPA is required to establish TMDLs in water courses
that have been declared to be "water quality impaired." The EPA and the North
Coast Water Board are in the process of establishing TMDLs for 17 northern
California rivers and certain of their tributaries, including nine water courses
that flow within the Company's timberlands. The Company expects this process to
continue into 2010. In the December 1999 EPA report dealing with TMDLs on two of
the nine water courses, the agency indicated that the requirements under the HCP
would significantly address the sediment issues that resulted in TMDL
requirements for these water courses. However, the September 2000 report by the
staff of the North Coast Water Board proposed various actions, including
restrictions on harvesting beyond those required under the HCP. Dates for
hearings concerning these matters have not been scheduled. Establishment of the
final TMDL requirements applicable to the Company's timberlands will be a
lengthy process, and the final TMDL requirements applicable to the Company's
timberlands may require aquatic protection measures that are different from or
in addition to the prescriptions to be developed pursuant to the watershed
analysis process provided for in the HCP.

      Since the consummation of the Headwaters Agreement on March 1, 1999, there
has been a significant amount of work required in connection with the
implementation of the Environmental Plans. As a result of the implementation
process, 1999 and 2000 were transition years for the Company with respect to the
filing and approval of its THPs, principally because government agencies have
failed to approve THPs in a timely manner. The rate of approvals of THPs during
the three months ended June 30, 2001, has improved somewhat over prior quarters;
however, it continues to be below what the Company requires to meet its targeted
harvest levels under the SYP. Nevertheless, the Company anticipates that once
the Environmental Plans are fully implemented, the process of preparing THPs
will become more streamlined, and the time to obtain approval of THPs will
potentially be shortened.

      Lawsuits are pending and threatened which seek to prevent the Company from
implementing the HCP and/or the SYP, implementing certain of the Company's
approved THPs, or carrying out certain other operations. On December 2, 1997,
the Wrigley lawsuit was filed. This action alleges, among other things, that the
defendants' logging practices have contributed to an increase in flooding and
damage to domestic water systems in a portion of the Elk River watershed. The
Company believes that it has strong factual and legal defenses with respect to
the Wrigley lawsuit; however, there can be no assurance that it will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of
operations or liquidity.

      On March 31, 1999, the EPIC-SYP/Permits lawsuit was filed alleging various
violations of the CESA and the California Environmental Quality Act, and
challenging, among other things, the validity and legality of the SYP and the
Permits issued by California. On March 31, 1999, the USWA lawsuit was filed also
challenging the validity and legality of the SYP. The Company believes that
appropriate procedures were followed throughout the public review and approval
process concerning the HCP and the SYP, and the Company is working with the
relevant government agencies to defend these challenges. Although uncertainties
are inherent in the final outcome of the EPIC-SYP/Permits lawsuit and the USWA
lawsuit, the Company believes that the resolution of these matters should not
result in a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of
operations or the ability to harvest timber.

      In connection with a February 2001 notice of intent to sue Pacific Lumber,
on July 24, 2001, the Bear Creek lawsuit was filed. The lawsuit alleges that the
Company and Pacific Lumber's harvesting and other activities under certain of
its approved and proposed THPs will result in discharges of pollutants in
violation of the CWA. The plaintiff asserts that the CWA requires the defendants
to obtain a permit from the North Coast Water Board before beginning timber
harvesting and road construction activities in the Bear Creek watershed, and is
seeking to enjoin these activities until such permit has been obtained. The
plaintiff also seeks civil penalties of up to $27,000 per day for the
defendant's alleged continued violation of the CWA. The Company believes that
the requirements under the HCP are adequate to ensure that sediment and
pollutants from its harvesting activities will not reach levels harmful to the
environment. Furthermore, EPA regulations specifically provide that such
activities are not subject to CWA permitting requirements. The Company believes
that it has strong legal defenses in this matter; however, there can be no
assurance that this lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on its
consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

      While the Company expects environmentally focused objections and lawsuits
to continue, it believes that the HCP, the SYP and the Permits should enhance
its position in connection with these continuing challenges and, over time,
reduce or minimize such challenges.

ITEM 2.       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      The following should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
in Part I, Item 1 of this Report, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and Item 8. "Financial
Statements and Supplementary Data" of the Form 10-K. Any capitalized terms used
but not defined in this Item are defined in the "Glossary of Defined Terms"
contained in Appendix A. Except as otherwise noted, all references to notes
represent the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements included in Item 1.

      This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements which constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements appear in a number of places in
this section and in Part II. Item 1. "Legal Proceedings." Such statements can be
identified by the use of forward- looking terminology such as "believes,"
"expects," "may," "estimates," "will," "should," "plans" or "anticipates" or the
negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by
discussions of strategy. Readers are cautioned that any such forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant
risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may vary materially from the
forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. These factors include
the effectiveness of management's strategies and decisions, general economic and
business conditions, developments in technology, new or modified statutory or
regulatory requirements and changing prices and market conditions. This Form
10-Q and the Form 10-K identify other factors that could cause such differences
between the forward-looking statements and actual results. No assurance can be
given that these are all of the factors that could cause actual results to vary
materially from the forward-looking statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      General
      Mbfe Concept. The Mbfe concept was used in structuring the Timber Notes in
order to take account of the relative values of the species and categories of
timber included in the Company Timber. Under the Mbfe concept, one thousand
board feet, net Scribner scale, of old growth redwood timber equates to one
Mbfe. One thousand board feet, net Scribner scale, of each other species and
category of timber included in the Company Timber was assigned a value in Mbfe
equal to a fraction of an Mbfe. This fraction was generally determined by
dividing the SBE Price applicable to such species and category for the first
half of 1998 by the SBE Price applicable to old growth redwood for the first
half of 1998. Historical harvest volumes reflected in this report are stated on
an Mbfe basis.

      Master Purchase Agreement Governing Log Sales to Pacific Lumber. The
Master Purchase Agreement generally contemplates that all sales of logs by the
Company to Pacific Lumber will be at the SBE Price. Harvest Value Schedules
setting forth the SBE Prices are published by the California State Board of
Equalization twice a year for the purpose of computing a yield tax imposed on
timber harvested between January 1 and June 30 and July 1 and December 31.
Harvest Value Schedules are based on twenty-four months of actual log and timber
sales that occur within nine specified timber value areas. These sales are arms
length transactions adjusted for time by indexing the prices (using log and
lumber price trends) to a specific date, which is approximately sixty days prior
to the effective date of the Harvest Value Schedules. However, SBE prices may
not necessarily be representative of actual prices that would be realized from
unrelated parties at subsequent dates.

      Seasonality. Logging operations on the Company's timberlands are highly
seasonal and have historically been significantly higher in the months of April
through November than in the months of December through March. Management
expects that the Company's revenues and cash flows will continue to be markedly
seasonal because of the harvesting, road use, wet weather and other restrictions
imposed by the HCP. As a result, a substantial majority of the future harvesting
on the Company's timberlands can be expected to be concentrated during the
period from June through October of each year. Some of these restrictions may be
modified under the adaptive management provision contained in the HCP, and as a
result of the watershed analysis process to be performed over the five-year
period which began March 1, 1999. See Note 3.

      Log Sales to Pacific Lumber
      Net sales from logs were $32.7 million and $26.8 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The increase was largely due
to an increase in the average realized price and log delivery volumes for small
diameter redwood logs. The improvement was somewhat offset by lower volumes of
large diameter redwood logs. The volume of log deliveries for such periods was
28,700 Mbfe and 26,800 Mbfe, respectively. The increase in volume was
predominantly due to an increase in THPs approved in the second quarter of 2001;
however, seasonal harvesting restrictions imposed under the HCP have reduced the
number of available-to-log THPs as compared to historical years. See "--Trends"
for further discussion of the factors affecting the supply of approved THPs. Net
sales from logs were $45.8 million and $47.1 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decrease was predominantly due to a
decrease in the volume of redwood log deliveries offset by an increase in the
average realized price for small diameter redwood logs. Log volume represented
41,400 Mbfe and 47,800 Mbfe, respectively. The decrease in log volume was due to
a lower available-to-log THP inventory at January 1, 2001, as compared to the
beginning of 2000.

      The SBE Prices published for the six months beginning July 1, 2001,
reflected declines in the prices for redwood logs in the range of 35% to 40%
from the previous period. Since net sales from redwood logs constituted 91% of
total net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2001, this decline in SBE
Prices will have an adverse impact on net sales for the second half of 2001.

      Operating Income and Net Income
      Operating income was $24.9 million and $19.5 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Operating income was $32.7 million
and $33.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The increase for the three months ended and decrease for the six months ended is
principally due to the changes in log sales discussed above.

      Net income for the second quarter increased from $5.9 million in 2000 to
$12.2 million in 2001 primarily as a result of the increase in net sales from
logs discussed above. The second quarter was also favorably impacted by an
increase in interest income from restricted cash and investments and a decrease
in interest expense relating to the repurchase of Timber Notes. The decrease in
net income from $8.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, to $7.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, was principally due to the
decrease in net sales from logs as discussed above. This decrease was partially
offset by a decrease in interest expense relating to the repurchase of Timber
Notes. In addition, results for the six months ended June 30, 2000, included a
$2.4 million extraordinary gain on repurchases of Timber Notes.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES

      This section contains statements which constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. See above for cautionary information with respect to such
forward-looking statements.

      On June 1, 2001, the Line of Credit was extended for an additional year to
July 12, 2002. At June 30, 2001, the Company could have borrowed a maximum of
$61.1 million under the Line of Credit, and there were no borrowings outstanding
under the Line of Credit.

      On the January 22, 2001, note payment date for the Timber Notes, the
Company had $37.4 million set aside in the note payment account to pay the $28.9
million of interest due as well as $8.5 million of principal. The Company repaid
an additional $2.9 million of principal on the Timber Notes using funds held in
the SAR Account, resulting in a total principal payment of $11.4 million, an
amount equal to Scheduled Amortization. In addition, the Company made a
distribution in the amount of $73.1 million to its parent, Pacific Lumber, $63.9
million of which was made using funds from the December 2000 sale of the Owl
Creek grove and $9.2 million of which was made using excess funds released from
the SAR Account.

      On the July 20, 2001, note payment date for the Timber Notes, the Company
had $29.9 million set aside in the note payment account to pay the $28.5 million
of interest due as well as $1.4 million of principal. The Company repaid an
additional $1.4 million of principal on the Timber Notes using funds held in the
SAR Account, resulting in a total principal payment of $2.8 million, an amount
equal to Scheduled Amortization. In addition, the Company made a distribution in
the amount of $3.0 million to its parent, Pacific Lumber.

      With respect to short-term liquidity, the Company believes that it will
generate sufficient cash from operations to pay all of the interest and required
principal on the Timber Notes on the January 21, 2002, payment date; however,
given the uncertainties concerning the ability of the Company to obtain THP
approvals, restrictions on winter harvesting operations and other matters, there
can be no assurance that this will be the case. Any shortfall in funds available
to pay interest could be borrowed under the Line of Credit. The Company also
expects that all or a portion of the funds used to pay the Scheduled
Amortization amount will be provided from the SAR Account.

      Pacific Lumber's financial condition will affect its ability to purchase
logs from the Company and to meet its obligations under the Services Agreement.
Pacific Lumber's liquidity improved significantly as a result of $76.1 million
in distributions paid by the Company, and $4.9 million in repayments on an
intercompany loan by MGI during the period from January 1, 2001 to July 31,
2001. Nevertheless, Pacific Lumber expects that near-term cash flows from
operations will be adversely affected by an inadequate supply of logs and a
related slowdown in lumber production. Pacific Lumber may require funds
available under Pacific Lumber's revolving credit agreement, additional
repayments by MGI of an intercompany loan and/or capital contributions from MGI
to enable it to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements
for the next year. With respect to long-term liquidity, although Pacific Lumber
expects that its existing cash and cash equivalents should provide sufficient
funds to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements, until
such time as Pacific Lumber has adequate cash flows from operations and/or
dividends from the Company, there can be no assurance that this will be the
case.

      With respect to long-term liquidity, the Company believes that its
existing cash, including cash available for principal payments from the SAR
Account, and funds available under the Line of Credit, together with its ability
to generate sufficient levels of cash flows from operations over the long term,
should provide sufficient funds to meet its long-term working capital, capital
expenditures and required debt service obligations. If the Company generates
excess funds after the payment of operating expenses, capital expenditures,
interest, premiums, required principal payments and replenishment of the SAR
Account, it may at its option either pay dividends, retain these funds for
internal purposes or make voluntary principal payments. Cash flows from
operations may continue to be adversely affected if the Company does not
experience improvements in the THP submission and approval process, or if
inclement weather conditions or seasonal operating restrictions under the HCP
hamper harvesting operations. Cash flows from operations would also be adversely
affected if additional judicial or regulatory restrictions are imposed on the
Company's harvesting activities, or if the Environmental Plans are not
implemented in accordance with the Company's expectations.

    TRENDS

      This section contains statements which constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. See above for cautionary information with respect to such
forward-looking statements.

      Regulatory and environmental matters play a significant role in the
Company's operations. See Note 3 and Item 1. "Business--Regulatory and
Environmental Factors" of the Form 10-K for a discussion of these matters.
Regulatory compliance and related litigation have caused delays in obtaining
approvals of THPs and delays in harvesting on THPs once they are approved. This
has resulted in a decline in harvest, an increase in the cost of logging
operations, and lower net sales.

      Since the consummation of the Headwaters Agreement on March 1, 1999, there
has been a significant amount of work required in connection with the
implementation of the Environmental Plans. As a result of the implementation
process, 1999 and 2000 were transition years for the Company with respect to the
filing and approval of its THPs, principally because government agencies have
failed to approve THPs in a timely manner. The rate of approvals of THPs during
the three months ended June 30, 2001, has improved somewhat over prior quarters;
however, it continues to be below what the Company requires to meet its targeted
harvest levels under the SYP. Nevertheless, the Company anticipates that once
the Environmental Plans are fully implemented, the process of preparing THPs
will become more streamlined, and the time to obtain approval of THPs will
potentially be shortened.

      There can be no assurance that the Company will not continue to experience
difficulties in receiving approvals of its THPs similar to those it has been
experiencing. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that certain pending legal,
regulatory and environmental matters or future governmental regulations,
legislation or judicial or administrative decisions, or adverse weather
conditions, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position, results of operations or liquidity. See Part II. Item 1. "Legal
Proceedings" and Note 3 for further information regarding regulatory and legal
proceedings affecting the Company.


                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      Reference is made to Item 3 of the Form 10-K for information concerning
material legal proceedings with respect to the Company. The following material
developments have occurred with respect to such legal proceedings subsequent to
the filing of the Form 10-K.

      In connection with a February 2001 notice of intent to sue the Company and
Pacific Lumber, on July 24, 2001, the Bear Creek lawsuit was filed. The lawsuit
alleges that the Company and Pacific Lumber's harvesting and other activities
under certain of its approved and proposed THPs will result in discharges of
pollutants in violation of the CWA. The plaintiff asserts that the CWA requires
the defendants to obtain a permit from the North Coast Water Board before
beginning timber harvesting and road construction activities in the Bear Creek
watershed, and is seeking to enjoin these activities until such permit has been
obtained. The plaintiff also seeks civil penalties of up to $27,000 per day for
the defendant's alleged continued violation of the CWA. The Company believes
that the requirements under the HCP are adequate to ensure that sediment and
pollutants from its harvesting activities will not reach levels harmful to the
environment. Furthermore, EPA regulations specifically provide that such
activities are not subject to CWA permitting requirements. The Company believes
that it has strong legal defenses in this matter; however, there can be no
assurance that this lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on its
consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
