Potlatch Corporation to provide meaningful financial rewards to those employees of Potlatch Corporation and its subsidiaries who are in a position to contribute to the achievement by Potlatch Corporation and its subsidiaries of significant
improvements in profit performance and growth. 

  

	 	(b)	The Plan is the successor plan to the Potlatch Corporation Management Performance Award Plan II, as amended through February 20, 2008 (the “Prior Plan”). Effective
December 31, 2008, the Prior Plan was frozen and no new Award deferrals will be made under it; provided, however, that any Award deferrals made under the Prior Plan before January 1, 2009, continue to be governed by the terms and
conditions of the Prior Plan as in effect on December 31, 2008, or on the date of any later amendment. 

  

	 	(c)	Any Award deferrals made under the Prior Plan after December 31, 2008, are deemed to have been made under the Plan and all such deferrals are governed by the terms and
conditions of the Plan as it may be amended from time to time. 

  

	 	(d)	The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, to the extent applicable, and, in the case of covered employees, the exception for
“qualified performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.

election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors, an actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents or any other actual or threatened action by, or on behalf of any Person other than the Board; or

defined herein) of the Corporation or the Subsidiary. A Separation from Service will not be deemed to have occurred if a Participant continues to provide services to the Corporation, the Subsidiary or an Affiliate in a capacity other than as an
employee and if the former employee is providing a level of bona fide services that is fifty percent (50%) or more of the average level of services rendered, during the immediately preceding thirty-six (36) months of employment with the
Corporation, Subsidiary or Affiliate; provided, however, that a Separation from Service will be deemed to have occurred if it is reasonably anticipated that a Participant’s service with the Corporation or Subsidiary and its Affiliates will
terminate after a certain date or the level of bona fide services that the Participant will perform after such date (whether as an employee or another capacity) will permanently reduce to a rate that is less than twenty percent (20%) of the
bona fide level of services rendered, on average, during the immediately preceding thirty-six (36) months (or if employed by the Corporation or Subsidiary and its Affiliates 

	 	 
less than thirty-six (36) months, such lesser period). However, the employment relationship is treated as continuing intact while the individual is on
military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence if the period of such leave does not exceed six months, or if longer, so long as the individual’s right to reemployment with the service recipient is provided either by statute or
by contract. If the period of leave exceeds six months and the individual’s right to reemployment is not provided either by statute or by contract, the employment relationship is deemed to terminate on the first date immediately following such
six-month period. For purposes of determining when a Separation from Service occurs “Affiliate” means any other entity which would be treated as a single employer with the Corporation or Subsidiary under Section 414(b) or (c) of
the Code, provided that in applying such Sections and in accordance with the rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(h)(3), the language “at least 50 percent” shall be used instead of “at least 80 percent.”

  

	 	(s)	“Subsidiary” means any corporation fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting stock of which is owned by Potlatch or by one or more of such corporations.

  

	 	(t)	“Year” means the calendar year. 

  

	3.	ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN 

 The Plan shall be
administered by the Executive Compensation and Personnel Policies Committee of the Board of Directors, or such other committee as may be designated and appointed by the Board of Directors, which shall consist of at least three (3) members of
the Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Participants who are Covered Employees, except in the case of a Change of Control as explained below, the Committee shall consist solely of “outside directors” within
the meaning of Section 162(m). No member of the Committee shall be eligible to participate and receive Awards under the Plan while serving as a member of the Committee. 
 In addition to the powers and duties otherwise set forth in the Plan, the Committee shall have full power and authority to administer and interpret the
Plan, to establish procedures for administering the Plan, to adopt and periodically review such rules and regulations consistent with the terms of the Plan as the Committee deems necessary or advisable in order to properly carry out the provisions
of the Plan, to receive and review an annual report to be submitted by the CEO which shall describe and evaluate the operation of the Plan, and to take any and all necessary action in connection therewith. The Committee’s interpretation and
construction of the Plan and its determination of the amount of any Award thereunder shall be conclusive and binding on all persons. In making such determinations, the Committee shall be entitled to rely on information and reports provided by the
CEO. 
 Within thirty (30) days after a Change of Control, the Committee shall appoint an independent committee consisting of at least
three (3) current (as of the effective date of the Change of Control) or former Corporation officers and directors, which shall thereafter administer all claims for benefits under the Plan. Upon such appointment the Committee shall cease to
have any responsibility for claims administration under the Plan. 

	4.	ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION 

 In accordance with
rules and regulations adopted by the Committee, the CEO (the Committee in the case of Covered Employees) shall designate the Organization Units and the individuals who will participate in the Plan for an Award Year. 
  

	5.	AWARDS 

 Awards shall be determined in accordance
with Sections 6, 7 and 8 and announced to Participants by March 1 following the close of the Award Year and, unless deferred in accordance with Section 9, shall be paid no later than March 15 following the close of the Award Year.

  

	6.	DETERMINING THE ACTUAL FUNDED BONUS POOL 

 The total
amount of Awards made to all Participants with respect to any Award Year shall be determined pursuant to this Section 6. 
  

	 	(a)	Target Bonus Pool. The Target Bonus Pool for an Award Year shall be determined first. The Target Bonus Pool for an Award Year shall be the sum of the Target Bonuses for all
Participants for the Award Year. A Participant’s Target Bonus shall be an amount equal to a percentage of the Participant’s base salary, based on the position to which the Participant is assigned, as determined in accordance with rules and
regulations adopted by the Committee. If a Participant does not qualify as a Participant for the entire period of the applicable Award Year, the Target Bonus will be prorated to reflect the number of half calendar months that the Employee was a
Participant. 

  

	 	(b)	Actual Funded Bonus Pool. The Actual Funded Bonus Pool for an Award Year shall be determined next. The Actual Funded Bonus Pool for each Award Year shall be determined in
accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the Committee. The Actual Funded Bonus Pool shall be represented by a bookkeeping entry only and no Employee of the Corporation shall have any vested right therein. The Actual Funded Bonus Pool for an
Award Year shall be equal to the Target Bonus Pool for the Award Year adjusted by one or more “Corporate Performance Modifiers”. A Corporate Performance Modifier shall be a percentage determined in accordance with rules and regulations
adopted by the Committee. A Corporate Performance Modifier may range from a minimum of zero to a maximum of two hundred percent (200%). In its rules and regulations concerning the determination of the Corporate Performance Modifiers, the Committee
may take into consideration one or more of the following financial measures of profit performance, and a comparison of such performance against the performance of other major competitors: increase in funds from operations (“FFO”),
consolidated earnings per share, return on shareholder equity, and return on invested capital. 

  

	7.	ALLOCATING THE ACTUAL FUNDED BONUS POOL AMONG ORGANIZATION UNITS 

 The Actual Funded Bonus Pool for each Award Year shall be allocated among the Organization Units in accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the Committee. In the case of the Organization Unit that includes
corporate management employees (including the CEO), this allocation shall be based on the portion of the Target Bonus Pool that was attributable to the employees in that Organization Unit. In the case of Organization Units that include operating
division employees, this allocation shall be based on what portion of the Target Bonus Pool was attributable to the employees in each Organization Unit (25% weight), and on the extent to which the division met its earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, depletion and amortization (“EBITDDA”) target (75% weight). The resulting allocations may be adjusted up or down at the discretion of the CEO, except that they may not be adjusted up in the case of a Covered Employee.

	8.	DETERMINING INDIVIDUAL AWARDS 

 Each Officer shall
determine the amount of the Award to each Participant who is assigned to such Officer’s Organization Unit in accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the Committee, by allocating such Organization Unit’s portion of the Actual
Funded Bonus Pool among the Participants employed in such Organization Unit in proportion to the product of the Participant’s Target Bonus and the Participant’s individual performance modifier. Each Participant’s Award shall be
subject to review by and approval of the CEO. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Award to an Officer, the CEO, any Covered Employee, or any individual who is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act , this determination shall be
made solely by the Committee. 
 The Committee shall determine the Covered Employee’s, Officer’s or other Section 16
individual’s individual performance modifier at the same time as it determines his or her Target Bonus at the beginning of the Award Year. The Committee may decrease, but not increase, the individual performance modifier when it determines the
Covered Employee’s actual Award after the end of the Award Year. Such Covered Employee’s Award also may not be increased based on his or her individual performance or based on decreases in other Participants’ bonuses relative to their
Target Bonuses based on their individual performance. 
 In no event may the Award granted to the CEO exceed $2.5 million, or the Award
granted to any other individual Covered Employee exceed $1.5 million. 
  

	9.	FORM AND TIME OF PAYMENT OF AWARDS 

  

	 	(a)	All non-deferred Awards under the Plan shall be paid in cash to all Participants other than those subject to the Guidelines. For a Participant subject to the Guidelines, the Award
shall be paid in a combination of fifty percent (50%) cash and fifty percent (50%) common stock of the Corporation if the Participant has not incrementally reached the required ownership level at the end of each of his or her first five
(5) years under the Guidelines or has not maintained one hundred percent (100%) of the applicable guideline amount in subsequent years. The number of shares of common stock shall be determined by dividing the dollar value of the portion of
the Award allocated as stock by the closing price of the Corporation’s common stock on the date of the Committee meeting at which the Award payments are approved. Award amounts shall be prorated for the portion of the Award Year the Employee
was an eligible Participant in accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the Committee. A Participant whose employment is terminated before the payment of an Award for any reason other than death, disability (within the meaning of
Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code) or (in the case of Employees who are not Covered Employees) early, normal or deferred retirement under the Salaried Employees’ Retirement Plan shall not be entitled to receive an Award. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Plan, in no event may the achievement of performance goals for any Participant who is a Covered Employee be waived except in the event of such Participant’s death or disability (within the meaning of
Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Code) or pursuant to Section 15 below. 

	 	(b)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participant may elect to defer receipt of payment of a single Award or all future Awards until after his or her Separation from Service in
accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the Committee and in compliance with Section 409A of the Code. 

  

	 	(c)	An Award, the payment of which is deferred under subsection (b) above, shall be converted at the Participant’s election into cash and full and fractional stock units equal
to the number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock determined by dividing the dollar value of the portion of the Award to be converted into stock units, if any, by the closing price of the Corporation’s common stock on the date of
the Committee meeting at which the Award payments are approved (or the most recent trading day if the Committee does not meet on a trading day). 

 On each dividend payment date, dividend equivalents shall be credited to each full and fractional stock unit to the extent such stock unit was in the Participant’s deferred account on the dividend record date
immediately preceding the applicable dividend payment date. Such dividend equivalents shall be converted into stock units as of the dividend payment date by dividing the amount of the dividend equivalents by the closing price of the
Corporation’s common stock on the dividend payment date. 
 In the event of a change in the number of outstanding shares of the
Corporation’s common stock by reason of a stock split, stock dividend, reclassification or other distribution of shares or other similar changes in the capitalization of the Corporation, an appropriate adjustment shall be made in the number of
each Participant’s stock units determined as of the date of such occurrence. 
  

	 	(d)	The cash portion of an Award, the payment of which was deferred under subsection (b) above, shall be credited with additional amounts during the period of deferral commencing
on the first day of the month coinciding with or next following the date Awards are normally paid pursuant to Section 5 above, and continuing during the period of deferral up to the last day of the month in which the amounts deferred hereunder
are paid, and payable at the time that the deferred Awards are paid. Such additional amounts shall be computed at the rate of return on one or more of the investment alternatives that are available under the Potlatch Corporation Salaried Employees
Savings Investment Plan. Each Participant may select which investment alternative(s) will be used for this purpose with respect to the deferred cash portion of his or her Award, and the alternative(s) selected need not be the same as the Participant
has selected under the Savings Investment Plan, but any such selection will apply only prospectively. The Committee shall determine how frequently such selections may be changed. 

  

	 	(e)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine limits on the amount and alter the time and form of payment of Awards
with respect to an Award Year if any of the following conditions occurs: (i) Potlatch does not declare cash dividend with respect to its common stock during such Award Year, or (ii) the Actual Funded Bonus Pool determined pursuant to
Section 6(b) for such Award Year exceeds six percent (6%) of Potlatch’s consolidated net earnings, before taxes, for such Award Year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors shall not alter the time and form of payment
of any Award for which a Participant has made a deferral election in accordance with this Section 9, unless such alteration is permissible under Section 409A of the Code. 

	10.	SPECIAL AWARDS FUND 

  

	 	(a)	Creation of the Fund. A Special Awards Fund shall be established with respect to each Award Year in an amount determined by the Committee but not to exceed ten percent
(10%) of the Target Bonus Pool for such Award Year. The Special Awards Fund shall be represented by a bookkeeping entry only and no Employee of the Corporation shall have any vested right therein. The Special Awards Fund shall be in addition to
the Bonus Pool created under Sections 5-9 above. 

  

	 	(b)	Eligibility. Awards may be made in a total amount equal to the Special Awards Fund to those Employees of the Corporation who are not Participants with respect to such Award
Year, but who in the judgment of an Officer have made outstanding contributions to the success of the Corporation. 

  

	 	(c)	Selection. After the close of the Award Year, recipients of Awards under the Special Awards Fund shall be selected by the CEO upon the recommendation of an Officer. The
amount of each individual’s Award under the Special Awards Fund shall be determined by the CEO upon the recommendation of an Officer and shall fall within a range set forth in rules and regulations adopted by the Committee, expressed as minimum
and maximum percentages of annualized salary at the end of the year. Awards under the Special Awards Fund shall be announced by March 1 following the close of the Award Year. 

  

	 	(d)	Payment. Awards under the Special Awards Fund shall be paid in full in cash no later than March 15 following the close of the Award Year. 

  

	11.	NO ASSIGNMENT OF INTEREST 

 The interest of any
person in the Plan or in payments to be received pursuant to it shall not be subject to option or assignable either by voluntary or involuntary assignment or by operation of law, and any act in violation of this section shall be void. 
  

	12.	EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS 

 The selection of an Employee as
a Participant shall not confer any right on such Employee to receive an Award under the Plan or to continue in the employ of the Corporation or limit in any way the right of the Corporation to terminate such Participant’s employment at any
time. 
  

	13.	AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN 

 The Board of
Directors may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that any amendment adopted or effective on or after July 1 in any Award Year which would adversely affect the calculation of a Participant’s Award or the
Participant’s eligibility for an Award for such Award Year shall be applied prospectively from the date the amendment was adopted or effective, whichever is later; provided, further that if the Plan is terminated effective on or after
July 1 in any Award Year such termination shall not adversely affect any Participant’s eligibility for a pro rata share of an Award for the period of such Award Year before the date the termination was adopted or effective, whichever is
later, subject to all other applicable terms and conditions of the Plan. In the event of termination of the Plan, Awards deferred under Section 9(b) shall be paid at such times and in such amounts as provided in Section 9(b) and the rules
and regulations adopted by the Committee and in compliance with Section 409A of the Code. The foregoing notwithstanding, no amendment adopted nor termination of the Plan following the 

 
occurrence of a Change of Control shall be effective if it (a) would reduce a Participant’s Target Bonus for the Award Year in which the Change of
Control occurs, (b) would reduce an Award earned and payable to a Participant in respect of the Award Year that ended immediately before the Award Year in which the Change of Control occurs, or (c) modify the provisions of this sentence.

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Vice President, Human Resources of Potlatch Forest Products Corporation shall have the power and
authority to amend the Plan with respect to any amendment that (i) does not materially increase the cost of the Plan to the Company or (ii) is required to comply with new or changed legal requirements applicable to the Plan, including, but
not limited to, Section 409A of the Code. 
 Without approval by vote of the shareholders, neither the Board nor the Vice President,
Human Resources of Potlatch Forest Products Corporation shall adopt any amendment that would modify the material terms of the Plan (within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code) as to Covered Employees. 
  

	14.	SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS 

 The Plan shall be binding
upon the Corporation, its successors and assigns, and any parent corporation of the Corporation’s successors or assigns. Notwithstanding that the Plan may be binding upon a successor or assign by operation of law, the Corporation shall require
any successor or assign to expressly assume and agree to be bound by the Plan in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be if no succession or assignment had taken place. 
  

	15.	CHANGE OF CONTROL 

 Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan to the contrary, this Section 15 shall apply with respect to the determination of Awards and the payment of Awards following a Change of Control. In the event that the employment of a Participant terminates following a
Change of Control, such Participant shall be guaranteed payment of a prorated Award for the Award Year in which the Change of Control occurs determined in accordance with Section 8 based on the Participant’s Target Bonus. A prorated Target
Bonus shall be calculated by multiplying the Participant’s Target Bonus for the applicable Award Year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months in the Award Year completed at the effective time of the Change of Control,
and the denominator of which is twelve (12). With respect to any Award earned but not yet paid in respect of the Award Year that ended immediately before the Award Year in which a Change of Control that also is a change in the ownership or effective
control the Corporation or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Corporation as defined in the regulations promulgated under Section 409A of the Code (a “Code Section 409A Change of Control”)
occurs, each Participant shall be guaranteed payment of his or her Award determined in accordance with Section 8 based on the performance results for the applicable Award Year. Awards paid pursuant to this Section 15 shall be paid in a
lump sum in cash upon the earliest of (i) the time prescribed in Sections 5 and 9(a), (ii) the date the Participant Separates from Service for any reason other than “misconduct,” as defined in the Corporation’s Severance
Program for Executive Employees or Salaried Employees’ Severance Benefits Plan, whichever applies to the Participant, following the Code Section 409A Change of Control, or (iii) with respect to an Award for which a Participant has
made a deferral election in accordance with Section 9 of the Plan, within the twelve (12)-month period following the termination of the Plan, provided that the Plan is terminated within the period beginning thirty (30) days before and
ending twelve (12) months following the effective date of the Code Section 409A Change of Control.Notice of Incremental Facility Commitment
