 PREAMBLE 
 WHEREAS, Plum Creek Timber Company, L.P. adopted this Plum Creek Supplemental Benefits Plan - Pension (hereinafter “Plan”) effective April 1, 1998, to attract and retain exceptional
executives by providing retirement benefits to selected officers of outstanding competence; and 
 WHEREAS, Plum Creek Timberlands, L.P.
(“Company”), the successor by operation of law to Plum Creek Timber Company, L.P., wishes to amend and restate the Plan; and 

WHEREAS, Internal Revenue Code (“Code”) Section 409A imposed new requirements on nonqualified deferred compensation plans and provided for
substantial penalties for noncompliance, generally effective January 1, 2005. Amounts deferred under the Plan after December 31, 2004, are subject to Code Section 409A and the Plan is intended to comply with Code Section 409A. In
order to update the Plan to comply with current law and to maintain the intended deferral of compensation and related deferral of income taxation, the Company wishes to amend and restate the Plan, in its entirety, to comply with Code
Section 409A, by retroactively amending the Plan as permitted by Notice 2007-78; and 
 WHEREAS, this restatement is not intended to
reflect any benefits for a Participant who Terminated prior to October 3, 2004, because such a Participant is entitled to benefits under the terms of the Plan in effect on the date he or she Terminated, and the Company wishes to clarify that
such benefits are not subject to Code Section 409A because they satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-6, including the requirement that such benefits have not been materially modified after October 3, 2004;
and 
 NOW THEREFORE, the Company does hereby restate and amend the Plan as set forth in the following pages, effective January 1, 2008,
except that any change required to comply with Code Section 409A and regulations or rulings issued pursuant thereto shall be effective on the earlier of January 1, 2008, or the latest date in which such change may become effective and
comply with such laws.

 In the event a
Participant continues to perform services on a reduced basis, when “Termination” occurs shall be determined by the Plan Administrator on a facts and circumstances basis; provided that a Participant shall be deemed to “Terminate”
if he or she is on a leave of absence that exceeds six months if the Participant does not retain the right to reemployment under an applicable statute or by contract. In this event, Termination shall occur on the first day after the end of the
six-month period. For purposes of this rule, the six-month period shall be replaced with a 29-month period if the leave of absence is due to any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be

 SECTION 4 - CLAIMS PROCEDURES 

 

	4.1	Claims Procedures 

 Claims
for benefits shall be administered in accordance with the procedures set forth in this section and any additional written procedures that may be adopted from time to time by the Plan Administrator. 

 

	 	(a)	Submission of Claim 

 A
claim for benefit payment shall be considered filed when a written request is submitted to a Claims Administrator. The Claims Administrator shall respond to a claim in writing or electronically. An authorized representative may act on behalf of a
Participant or Beneficiary (hereinafter “Claimant”) who claims benefits. 
 The Plan Administrator shall designate one
or more persons as “Claims Administrator(s)” and authorize such individuals to make claims determinations. 
  

	 	(b)	Notice of Denial  

 Any
time a claim for benefits is wholly or partially denied, the Claimant shall be given written or electronic notice of such action within 90 days after the claim is filed, unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing. If
there is an extension, the Claimant shall be notified of the extension and the reason for the extension within the initial 90-day period. The extension shall not exceed 180 days after the claim is filed. 

Such notice will indicate i) the reason for denial, ii) the specific provisions of the Plan on which the denial is based, iii) an
explanation of the claims appeal procedure including the time limits applicable to the procedure and a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a) and iv) a description of any additional material or
information necessary to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary. 
  

	 	(c)	Right to Request Review  


Any person who has had a claim for benefits denied by the Claims Administrator, who disputes the benefit determination, or is otherwise
adversely affected by action of the Claims Administrator, shall have the right to request review by the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall provide a full and fair review that takes into account all comments, documents, records, and
other information submitted relating to the claim, without regard to whether the information was previously submitted or 

  
 7 








 
considered in the initial benefit determination. Such request must be in writing, and must be made within 60 days after such person is advised of the Claims Administration’s action. If
written request for review is not made within such sixty 60-day period, the Claimant shall forfeit his or her right to review. The Claimant shall be provided, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents,
records and other information relevant to the claim for benefits. The Claimant may submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating to the claim. 

 

	 	(d)	Review of Claim  

 The
Plan Administrator shall then review the claim. The Plan Administrator may hold a hearing if it is deemed necessary and shall issue a written decision reaffirming, modifying or setting aside the initial determination by the Claims Administrator
within a reasonable time and not later than 60 days after receipt of the written request for review, or 120 days if special circumstances, such as a hearing, require an extension. If an extension is required, the Claimant shall be notified in
writing or electronically within the initial 60-day period of the extension, the special circumstances requiring the extension and the date by which the Plan expects to render a determination. The Plan Administrator may authorize one or more members
of the Plan Administrator to act on behalf of the full Plan Administrator to review and decide claims. 
 A copy of the decision
shall be furnished to the Claimant. The decision shall set forth the specific reasons for the decision and specific Plan provisions on which it is based, a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge,
reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the claim, and a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under ERISA Section 502(a). The decision shall be final and binding
upon the Claimant and all other persons involved.

 SECTION 5 - GENERAL PROVISIONS 

 

	5.1	ERISA Exemption 

 The
portion of the Plan that provides benefits in excess of the limitations of Code Section 415 is intended to qualify for exemption from ERISA as an unfunded excess benefit plan under ERISA Sections 3(36) and 4(b)(5). The portion of this Plan
that provides benefits in excess of the limitation of Code Section 401(a)(17) and other supplemental benefits is intended to qualify for exemption from ERISA Parts II, III and IV as a plan maintained primarily for the purpose of providing
deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees under ERISA Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1). 
  

	5.2	Unfunded Obligation 


Amounts payable under this Plan are unfunded, general obligations of the Company and may be paid out of its general assets or out of a
grantor trust. The Company is not required to segregate any monies from its general fund, or to create any trust, or to make any special deposits with respect to the Plan obligations. The Participants and Beneficiaries shall have no claim against
the Company for any changes in the value of any assets that may be invested or reinvested by the Company with respect to this Plan. 
  

	5.3	Corporate Transaction 

 If
an Employer merges, consolidates, or otherwise reorganizes, or if its business or assets are acquired by another company, this Plan shall continue with respect to those eligible individuals who continue in the employ of the successor company. The
transition of employment from an Employer to the new company shall not be considered a Termination for purposes of this Plan. In such event, however, a successor company may freeze all benefit accruals under this Plan as to Plan Participants on the
effective date of the succession, by amending the Plan accordingly and notifying Participants within 30 days after the succession. In no event may benefits accrued under the Plan be retroactively eliminated. 

 

	5.4	Notices 

 Any notice under
this Plan shall be in writing and shall be effective when actually delivered or, if mailed, when deposited as first class mail postage prepaid. Mail shall be directed to an Employer at the address stated in this Plan, to the Participant at his or
her last known home address shown in the Employer’s records, or to such other address as a party may specify by notice to the other parties. Notices to an Employer or the Plan Administrator shall be sent to: 

Vice President Human Resources 
 Plum Creek Timber Company, Inc. 
 999 Third Avenue, Suite 4300 

Seattle, WA 98104-4096 

  
 9 









	5.5	Incapacity of Participant or Beneficiary 

 If the Plan Administrator finds that any Participant or Beneficiary to whom a benefit is payable under the Plan is unable to care for his or her affairs because of illness or accident or because of his or
her mental or physical condition, and the Plan Administrator decides it is in such person’s best interest to make payments to others for the benefit of the person entitled to payment, the Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, make any
payment due (unless a prior claim therefore shall have been made by a duly appointed legal representative) to the spouse, child, parent or brother or sister of such Participant or Beneficiary, or to any person or trust whom the Plan Administrator
has determined has incurred expense for such Participant or Beneficiary. Any such payment shall completely discharge the obligations of the Employer and the Plan Administrator under the provisions of this Plan. 

 

	5.6	Nonassignment 

 The rights
of a Participant or Beneficiary under this Plan are personal. No interest of a Participant or Beneficiary may be directly or indirectly assigned, transferred or encumbered and no such interest shall be subject to seizure or legal process or in any
other way subjected to the claims of any creditor. A Participant’s or Beneficiary’s rights to benefits payable under this Plan are not subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or encumbrance.
Such rights shall not be subject to debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of the Participant or Beneficiary. The right to benefits under the Plan may not be awarded, assigned or otherwise transferred to an alternate payee pursuant to a
qualified domestic relations order as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code, or any other domestic relations order. 
  

	5.7	No Continued Right to Employment 

 Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to confer upon any Participant any right to continued employment with the Company or any of the Affiliated Companies, nor interfere in any way with the right of the
Company or any of the Affiliated Companies to terminate the employment of such Participant at any time without assigning any reason therefore. 
  

	5.8	Applicable Law 

 The Plan
shall be construed and governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. 

  
 10 










	5.9	Attorneys’ Fees 

 If
a suit or action is instituted to enforce any rights under this Plan, the prevailing party may recover from the other party reasonable attorneys’ fees at trial and on any appeal. 

 

	5.10	Withholding Taxes 


Appropriate payroll taxes shall be withheld from all benefits payable from this Plan. 

 

	5.11	Amendment and Termination 


The Company may from time to time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan, in whole or in part, and if the Plan is suspended or terminated,
the Company may reinstate any or all of its provisions. The Vice President Human Resources may amend the Plan to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law; provided that any such amendment that could change the timing of benefit payments to
the Vice President Human Resources must be approved by the Company prior to adoption. No amendment, suspension or termination may, however, impair the right of a Participant or Beneficiary to receive the benefits accrued prior to the effective date
of such amendment, suspension or termination. 
 If the Company wishes to terminate the Plan, the Company must amend the Plan to
cease all benefit accruals and then may only terminate the Plan after all benefits have been paid. The Company shall maintain a frozen Plan until all benefits due to Participants and Beneficiaries who have accrued benefits under the Plan as of the
date of the freeze are paid at the times specified in the Plan following each Participant’s Termination. 
 The Plum Creek Supplemental
Benefits Plan – Pension is amended and restated by Plum Creek Timberlands, L.P. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Plum Creek Timberlands, L.P. has
caused this Plan to be duly executed on this 4th, day of August, 2008.

 Upon a Participant’s Termination, the Company shall pay to such Participant, or his or her Beneficiary in the event of the Participant’s death, a supplemental pension benefit under this Plan
that is equal to the amount described in Sections 2.1(a) through (e) for the Participant or Beneficiary, whichever applies, less the amount described in Section 2.3, if any. Capitalized terms in Section 2.1 that are not defined

	 	(a)	Normal Retirement Pension 


For a Participant who Terminates employment on or after his or her Normal Retirement Date, the lump sum value of the Participant’s

	 	(1)	1.1 percent of Final Average Monthly Earnings, plus 


  
 A-1










	 	(2)	0.5 percent of Final Average Monthly Earnings that exceed the Integration Level,

For a Participant who Terminates employment on or after attaining age 55 and completing ten years of Credited Service and before the

	 	(1)	the Participant’s Accrued Benefit as defined in Section 2.1(a) reduced as described below: 


 

	 	(A)	 if upon Termination of employment the Participant has completed at least 30 years of Credited Service, his or her Accrued Benefit shall be reduced by 2
percent for each year by which the benefit commencement date precedes his or her 60th birthday, with pro rata reductions for fractional years; or 


  

	 	(B)	 if upon Termination of employment the Participant has completed less than 30 years of Credited Service, his or her Accrued Benefit shall be reduced by
2 percent per year for the lesser of (i) each year by which the benefit commencement date precedes his or her
65th birthday, or (ii) the excess of 30 over the
number of years of Credited Service, with pro rata reductions for fractional years; provided, however, that if the Participant’s age at benefit commencement is less than 60, the reduction shall be not less than 2 percent for each year by
which the benefit commencement date precedes his or her
60th birthday, with pro rata reductions for fractional
years. 


  

	 	(2)	1 percent of Final Average Monthly Earnings up to the Integration Level, multiplied by Credited Service up to a maximum of 30 years, reduced as described below:


  

	 	(A)	 if upon Termination of employment the Participant has completed at least 30 years of Credited Service, his or her benefit under this subsection
(2) shall be reduced by 2 percent for each year by which the benefit commencement date precedes his or her
60th birthday, with pro rata reductions for fractional
years; or 



  
 A-2










	 	(B)	 if upon Termination of employment the Participant has completed less than 30 years of Credited Service, his or her benefit under this subsection
(2) shall be reduced by 2 percent per year for the lesser of (i) each year by which the benefit commencement date precedes his or her 65th birthday, or (ii) the excess of 30 over the number of years of Credited Service, with pro rata reductions for
fractional years; provided, however, that if the Participant’s age at benefit commencement is less than 60, the reduction shall be not less than 2 percent for each year by which the benefit commencement date precedes his or her 60th birthday, with pro rata reductions for fractional years.



 The benefit described in this Section 2.1(b)(2) shall be payable only until the Participant first
becomes eligible to receive his or her old age benefits under the Social Security Act. 
  

	 	(c)	Deferred Retirement Pension 

 For a Participant who Terminates employment after his or her Normal Retirement Date, the lump sum value of the Participant’s “Accrued Benefit” as defined in Section 2.1(a), as of the
date of Termination. Service and Earnings after age 65 shall be taken into consideration. 
  

	 	(d)	Vested Termination Pension 


For a Participant who Terminates employment before he or she is eligible for an Early Retirement Pension pursuant to Section 2.1(b)
or a Normal Retirement Pension pursuant to Section 2.1(a), the lump sum value of the Participant’s Accrued Benefit, as defined in Section 2.1(a), determined based on Final Average Monthly Earnings, Credited Service and the Integration
Level in effect as of the date of Termination. 
  

	 	(e)	Death Benefit 

 In the
event a Participant dies before receiving a supplemental pension benefit under the Plan, his or her Beneficiary shall receive a lump sum death benefit. The amount of the Beneficiary’s benefit and time of payment is described below. The
Beneficiary of a Participant who has received a supplemental pension benefit is not entitled to a death benefit. 

  
 A-3










	 	(1)	Death of a Married Participant, While Employed 

 If a married Participant dies while he or she is an Employee and before his or her Normal Retirement Date, such Participant’s surviving spouse Beneficiary shall receive the greater of: 

 

	 	(A)	the amount that would be payable under Section 2.1(e)(2) if that Section applied to the Beneficiary; or 


 

	 	(B)	the lump sum value of the monthly amount that would be payable to a surviving spouse for the spouse’s lifetime, if the Participant had survived and received the
Accrued Benefit described in Section 2.1(a), adjusted to the amount that would be payable monthly in the form of a 50 percent joint and survivor annuity, and then died. The monthly amount payable to the Participant in the form of a 50 percent
joint and survivor annuity shall equal the Accrued Benefit described in Section 2.1(a) (which is a monthly amount payable in the form of a single life annuity) multiplied by the following factor (not to exceed 1): 


FACTOR = .87 - .005 x (AGE DIFFERENCE) where AGE DIFFERENCE is the Participant’s age less the spouse’s age (computed to the

 The monthly amount payable to the surviving spouse under a 50 percent
joint and survivor annuity is one half of the Participant’s monthly benefit payable in the form of a 50 percent joint and survivor annuity. 
 The benefit described in Section 2.1(e)(1)(B) shall be determined as if the Participant had died on his or her Normal Retirement Date and had completed 30 years of Credited Service, and as if his or
her Basic Monthly Compensation at death had continued until his or her Normal Retirement Date, provided that such Basic Monthly Compensation shall be increased by the average amount of non-deferred cash bonus actually paid to such Participant during

any Participant who is not described in Section 2.1(e)(1) and who dies, his or her Beneficiary shall receive the lump sum amount that would have been paid to the Participant, had he or she survived and Terminated employment on the
Participant’s date of death. 
  

	2.2	415 Limits Do Not Apply 


The supplemental pension benefit determined pursuant to Section 2.1 shall be calculated without regard to the limitations of Code
Section 415 (including without limitation, the maximum benefit payable under Code Section 415(b)(1), the actuarial reduction for early retirement of Code Section 415(b)(2)(C), and the reduction for limited service or participation of
Code Section 415(b)(5). 
  

	2.3	Offset Amount 

 James A. Kraft is the only Participant with an offset pursuant to this Section 2.3. His offset amount is $63,620.87, increased annually from December 31, 1992, through December 31, 1999, by
the immediate PBGC interest rate in effect on January 1 on each year; and from January 1, 2000, to the December 31st immediately preceding the date of Termination, based on the average annual yield on 30-year Treasury Constant
Maturities for the November before the Plan Year that contains the Participant’s date of Termination. 
  

	2.4	Determination of Supplemental Pension Benefit Lump Sum Payment 

 For purposes of determining the lump sum benefit amounts described in Section 2.1, the amount of a lump sum payment of supplemental pension benefits to a Participant (or his or her Beneficiary in the
event of the Participant’s death) shall be determined by: 
  

	 	(a)	calculating the Accrued Benefit pursuant to Section 2.1(a) payable as a single life annuity at the Normal Retirement Date, then 


 

	 	(b)	calculating the present value of such benefit, using the following interest rate and mortality table: 


 

			
	Interest:	  	the average annual yield on 30-year Treasury Constant Maturities for the November before the Plan Year that contains the Participant’s date of Termination;
and
		
	Mortality:	  	the 1994 Group Annuity Reserving Table, then


  
 A-5










	 	(c)	subtracting the offset amount pursuant to Section 2.3, if any. 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate (for the November before the Plan Year that contains the Participant’s date of Termination) and mortality table prescribed by Code
Section 417(e)(3) shall be used in lieu of the interest rate and mortality table in Section 2.4(b), if they produce a greater benefit. 
 Also notwithstanding the foregoing, for a Participant who is eligible for a benefit pursuant to Section 2.1(b) or his or her Beneficiary, the present value shall be calculated based on the
Participant’s benefit described in Section 2.1(b)(1) payable as a single life annuity at the early retirement date rather than the Accrued benefit described in Section 2.1(a). Similarly, for a Participant who is eligible for a benefit
pursuant to Section 2.1(c) or his or her Beneficiary, the present value shall be based on the Participant’s benefit described in Section 2.1(c) payable as a single life annuity at the deferred retirement date rather than the Accrued
Benefit described in Section 2.1(a). 
 The amount of a lump sum payment of supplemental pension benefits to a
Participant’s Beneficiary shall be determined as if the Participant had Terminated on the date of death.

Participant’s Social Security Covered Compensation for a calendar year before the 35-year period is the Social Security Wage Base in effect as of the beginning of the Plan Year.

	 	(b)	Offset Amount  

 The amount of $103,817.95, increased annually from December 31, 1992, through December 31, 1999, by the immediate PBGC interest rate in effect on January 1st of each year; and from January 1, 2000, to the

Social Security benefit shall be calculated assuming zero earnings after the Participant’s Termination and shall not be adjusted for any difference between the primary Social Security benefit determined under this provision and the actual
primary Social Security benefit to which he or she ultimately becomes entitled. 
 The lump sum value will be determined using
the assumptions described in paragraph (d) below. 
 For purposes of determining the Participant’s primary Social
Security benefit, earnings prior to date of hire may be determined by projecting earnings backward at 6 percent per year. A Participant shall be given the opportunity to provide an actual earnings history which will be used in the calculation of the
primary Social Security benefit in lieu of the above approximation. 

  
 B-2










	 	(d)	Lump Sum Assumptions  


The lump sum amounts described in Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(c) shall be determined assuming benefits are paid immediately

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate (for the November before the Plan Year that contains the Participant’s date of
Termination) and mortality table prescribed by Code Section 417(e)(3) shall be used in lieu of the interest rate and mortality table above, if they produce a greater benefit. 

The amount of lump sum payment of supplemental pension benefit to the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be determined as if the
Participant had Terminated on the date of death. 
  

	2.2	Alternate Form of Payment 


Notwithstanding the foregoing or Section 3.3 of the Plan, the Participant may elect to receive annual installment payments over a
ten-year period in lieu of a lump sum payment, provided that the following requirements are satisfied:

Participant in the year of payment.
