EASTMAN – RAYONIER 

CHEMICAL CELLULOSE AGREEMENT 
 RAYONIER
PERFORMANCE FIBERS, LLC (“RAYONIER”) agrees to sell and EASTMAN CHEMICAL COMPANY (“EASTMAN”) agrees to purchase products as specified in this Agreement (“Agreement “). As of January 1, 2012 (the “effective
date”), this Agreement replaces and supplants in its entirety that certain Chemical Cellulose Agreement with an effective date of July 1, 2003 (“2003 Agreement”), as was amended from time to time, between RAYONIER and EASTMAN
(collectively referred to as the “Parties”). For clarity, each party’s obligations and rights under the 2003 Agreement for the 2011 contract year and which, by their terms, survive expiration or termination of the 2003 Agreement,
shall be complied with by the parties. 
 WHEREAS, RAYONIER is regularly engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling both cellulose specialties
pulp (including dissolving pulp) and fluff pulp; 
 WHEREAS, EASTMAN is regularly engaged in the business of buying dissolving pulp; 

WHEREAS, RAYONIER is considering whether to undertake the expansion of its cellulose specialties capacity in a way that will reduce RAYONIER’s fluff pulp
capacity; 
 WHEREAS, EASTMAN wants RAYONIER to undertake the expansion of its cellulose specialties capacity and is desirous of buying cellulose
specialties from RAYONIER; 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, and the premises and mutual consideration set forth herein, the
parties agree as follows: 
 1. Definitions: 

(a) Board Approval means the initial and continued approval of the Board of Directors of Rayonier Inc. (the “Board”) for RAYONIER to
proceed with undertaking the process and steps necessary to successfully complete the CSE. The Parties recognize and agree the Board may withdraw its approval at any time prior to the successful completion of the CSE, contingent upon many factors
including, without limitation, the feasibility of the CSE, the ability and costs to obtain or comply with the necessary permitting and governmental approvals, and overall market conditions. 

(b) C Mill means the one mill line at RAYONIER’s Jesup, Georgia facility, that has historically been used primarily in the production of
fluff pulp. 
 (c) Cellulose Specialties Expansion (“CSE”) means the conversion of C Mill from a primarily fluff production line to
a cellulose specialties line capable of consistently

manufacturing approximately 190,000 Air Dry Metric Tons (“ADMT”) of on grade cellulose specialties consistent with RAYONIER’s standards and specifications. 

(d) Cellulose Specialties Expansion Volume (“CSE Volume”) means Product manufactured by RAYONIER as a result of RAYONIER’s
increased capacity resulting from RAYONIER undergoing Cellulose Specialties Expansion (“CSE”). Although the CSE may only increase cellulose specialties capacity of C Mill, CSE Volume refers to all chemical cellulose manufactured by
RAYONIER as a result of such increased capacity on the C mill line at RAYONIER’s Jesup, Georgia facility to include volume produced on other lines in Jesup, Georgia, as well as volume produced at RAYONIER’s Fernandina, Florida facility.

 (e) Chemical Cellulose shall have the same meaning as “Products”. 

(f) Base Volume means the difference of: the total quantity of Chemical Cellulose to be purchased and sold in each year as set forth in
paragraph 3(a), minus the CSE Volume. 
 (g) Product means cellulose specialties in the grades of Chemical Cellulose designated by RAYONIER
as *** and such other grades of Chemical Cellulose as may be added hereto by written agreement. EASTMAN’S identification numbers for such grades are as follows:

The “Price Addendum” (Addendum la attached hereto and by reference made a part hereof) lists the price and the allowance, if any, for
the above grades. The Price Addendum shall be updated whenever there is any change in price in accordance with Article 6 hereof. The “*** Addendum” (Addendum 1b attached hereto and by reference made a part hereof) provides the schedule of
volume related ***. 
 EASTMAN and RAYONIER shall maintain their activities related to improving product quality and the manufacturing

 Addendum 2 

CHEMICAL CELLULOSE AGREEMENT 

PURCHASE NOTICE AND SHIPPING SCHEDULES 

The objective of these procedures is to ensure good communication between the parties regarding EASTMAN’S requirements for shipments of Chemical
Cellulose and RAYONIER’S ability to produce the Chemical Cellulose to meet the required shipment schedule. The result of the planning should be the development of good production and shipment schedules two (2) to three (3) months
ahead, the even flow of shipments over the course of the quarters and year, and *** from RAYONIER’s Fernandina Beach, Florida, and Jesup, Georgia, mills. Commencing in 2012, a target of ***%, +/-***% of the *** pulp volume must be purchased
from the Fernandina Beach, Florida mill. The parties anticipate that following completion of the CSE it will be necessary to change the ratio of total Product shipments to approximately ***. ***. Within three (3) months of the completion of the
CSE, the parties agree to confer and, if warranted, negotiate in good faith any adjustment to this ratio. 
 As a second objective, the estimates described
herein shall form the basis for estimating any reductions in volume pursuant to Article 7 of the Agreement. The procedure shall be: 
  

	 	•	 	By *** of each year EASTMAN shall give RAYONIER a “budget notice” in writing of its estimated quarterly purchases from RAYONIER for the following calendar year. 


 

	 	•	 	By *** of each year EASTMAN and RAYONIER shall review EASTMAN’s estimated quarterly purchases hereunder and determine if any revisions to the budget notice are appropriate. 


 

	 	•	 	No later than *** days before the start of each calendar quarter, EASTMAN shall give RAYONIER information such as planned production rates, maintenance downtime and/or market curtailments foreseen for the upcoming
quarter and RAYONIER shall give EASTMAN similar information related to pulp mill operations over the same period. Product shipments required for the quarter should be scheduled as much as possible in equal weekly increments throughout the quarter.


  

	 	•	 	Both parties shall strive to maintain a firm daily shipping schedule of at least *** prior to the actual shipping dates. By Monday of each week a daily shipment schedule shall be agreed upon for the second shipping week
ahead.

 (2) WEIGHT: In case of Chemical Cellulose “Ton” means “Metric
Ton” 1,000 kgs. on an air dry basis (i.e., 90% bone-dry Chemical Cellulose by weight and 10% moisture) and usual packaging materials. 

(3) SHIPPING COST AND TAXES: *** 

(4) QUANTITY: A maximum margin of l0%, more or less, on the quantities shipped is to be allowed for convenience of arranging

described and referred to in paragraph 10. 
 (6) TESTS: In the event of a dispute as to the moisture content of any Chemical
Cellulose, a retest shall be made in accordance with the procedures for the ***. EASTMAN shall, however, pay the invoice for the Chemical Cellulose in full, when due, subject to the result of the retest. If the difference in moisture between that
described herein or in the Agreement on the one hand and that determined by retesting on the other hand does not exceed l% moisture, the cost of retesting shall be borne by EASTMAN; otherwise, an appropriate adjustment shall be made to the invoice
