a term is defined both herein and in the Indenture, the definition in this First Supplemental Indenture shall govern with respect to the Notes. 
 “Attributable Debt” means, with regard to a sale and lease-back transaction, the lesser of (A) the fair market value of the property subject thereto as determined in good faith by

provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment
Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event hereunder) if any of the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or publicly confirm or
inform the Trustee in writing at its request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the
applicable Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). 
 “Change of
Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

“person” or “group” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than the Company or one of its Subsidiaries; 
 (2) the consummation of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, a merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” or “group”

converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the shares of the Company’s Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged
for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving Person or any parent thereof immediately after giving effect to such transaction;

consummated.

Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (as measured from the date of redemption) of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new

Application of this First Supplemental Indenture. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this First Supplemental

The Notes constitute a series of Debt Securities as provided in Section 2.3 of the Indenture. 
 Section 2.02
Creation of the Notes. In accordance with Section 2.3 of the Indenture, the Company hereby creates the Notes as a series of its Debt Securities issued pursuant to the Indenture. The Notes shall be issued initially in an aggregate

Trustee as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), as Depository, and registered in the name of “Cede & Co.,” as the nominee of DTC, substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. So long as
DTC, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a Global Note, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, shall be considered the sole owner or Holder of the Notes represented by such Global Note for all purposes under the Indenture. Ownership of
beneficial interests in such Global Note shall be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effective only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to beneficial interests of participants) or by participants or Persons that hold interests
through participants (with respect to beneficial interests of beneficial owners). 
 Section 2.04 Terms and Conditions

	$[            ]	 	No.: [        ]

 RAYONIER INC., a North Carolina corporation (herein called the “Company”), for value received,
hereby promises to pay to [            ], or registered assigns, the principal sum of [            ] or such other Principal
Amount as shall be set forth on Schedule I hereto on April 1, 2022 and to pay interest thereon at the rate of 3.750% per annum from and including [            ], or from the most
recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing October 1, 2012 (each an “Interest Payment Date”), until the principal hereof is paid or
made available for payment. 
 The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date
will, except as provided in the Indenture hereinafter referred to, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest, which will be the March 15 and
September 15, as the case may be (each, a “Regular Record Date”), immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on
such Regular Record Date and either may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be
given to the Holders not less than ten days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner,

all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose pursuant to the
Indenture (initially the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee in New York, New York (the “Corporate Trust Office”)), in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment
of public and private debts; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or
(ii) by wire transfer to an account maintained by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Security Register. Payments of principal and interest at maturity will be made against presentation of this Note at the Corporate Trust Office (or
such other office as may be established pursuant to the Indenture), by check or wire transfer. 
 In any case where the date of
maturity of interest on or principal of and premium, if any, on this Note or the date fixed for redemption or repayment of this Note shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then payment of interest or principal and premium, if any, need
not be made on such date at such Place of Payment, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the date of maturity or the date fixed for redemption, and no interest shall
accrue for the period after such date. If a record date is not a Business Day, the record date shall not be affected. 

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse side hereof, which further provisions shall for
all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place. 
 Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon
has been executed by the Trustee or an authenticating agent under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be

 Exhibit A

 (Reverse of Note) 
 RAYONIER INC. 
 3.750% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2022 

1. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its 3.750% Senior Notes due 2022 (the
“Notes”) initially issued in aggregate principal amount of $325,000,000 under an indenture, dated as of March 5, 2012, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the
“Trustee,” which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), and the first supplemental indenture, dated as of March 5, 2012 (the “Base Indenture,” as so supplemented and as it may be further supplemented or
amended from time to time, is herein referred to as the “Indenture”), between the Company, the guarantors signatory thereto (the “Guarantors”) and the Trustee. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the
respective rights thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. 
 2. The Notes are subject to redemption at any time or from time to time prior to January 1, 2022, in whole or in part, in each case, at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to the
greater of: 
  

	 	(i)	100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and 

  

	 	(ii)	the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued
as of the redemption date), discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus 30 basis points, 


in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. 
 In addition, the Notes are subject to redemption at any time or from time to time on or after January 1, 2022, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to 100% of
the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a
maturity comparable to the remaining term (as measured from the date of redemption) of the notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate
debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such notes. 
 “Comparable Treasury Price”
means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Trustee
obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations, or (iii) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such quotation. 

  
 Exhibit A
– Page 5 








 “Quotation Agent” means any Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the
Company. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) each of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch,
Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (or their respective affiliates that are Primary Treasury Dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be
a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer and (ii) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any
redemption date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury
Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date. 
 “Treasury
Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of
its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date. 
 Any notice to Holders of Notes of a
redemption pursuant to this paragraph 2 hereof will include, among other things set forth in the Indenture, the redemption date, the redemption price, the amount of accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, and the name and address of the
paying agent. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment
Dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date. 

3. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless all Notes have been called for redemption pursuant to paragraph 2
of this Note, each Holder of the Notes shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to an integral multiple of $1,000) of such Holder’s Notes at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal
amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of repurchase. “Change of Control Triggering Event” has the meaning ascribed to it in the Indenture. The Change of Control Offer will be made in accordance
with the terms specified in the Indenture. 
 4. The payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes will be
unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantors on the terms set forth in the Indenture. 

  
 Exhibit A
– Page 6 








 5. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the
principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 6. The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes at the time outstanding (or in certain cases without the consent of the Holders). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their
consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or
in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
 7. No reference herein to the
Indenture and no provisions of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin
or currency, herein prescribed. 
 8. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the
transfer of this Note may be registered on the Debt Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Company, and duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 9. The Notes are issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons,
in denominations of $2,000 or any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture, and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount
of Notes in authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 10. No service charge shall be made
for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 

11. Prior to the due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer or exchange, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary. 

  
 Exhibit A
– Page 7 








 12. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months. Interest shall be payable to and excluding any Interest Payment Date. 
 13. The Trustee, in its individual or any other
capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 

14. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company or any Guarantor, as such, shall
have any liability for any obligations of the Company or of the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Notes by
accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver and release may not be effective to waive or release liabilities under the federal securities
laws.
 15. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

 16. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN
ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUT (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 

17. Each Holder of this Note covenants and agrees by such Holder’s acceptance thereof to comply with and be bound by the foregoing
provisions. 
 18. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 19. All capitalized terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in
the Indenture.
