WHEREAS, the Company has executed and delivered to the Trustee an Indenture, dated as of August 19, 2011, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 19, 2011 and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of January 30, 2012 (as so supplemented, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance by the Company from time to time of its unsecured senior debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness to be issued in one or more series unlimited as to principal amount (the “Securities”);
WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that, under certain circumstances, the Guarantor shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guarantor shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s obligations under the Securities and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein;
WHEREAS, all things necessary to make this Supplemental Indenture a valid agreement of the Guarantor and the Trustee, in accordance with its terms, and a valid amendment of, and supplement to, the Indenture have been done; 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the purchase and acceptance of the Securities by the Holders thereof, the Guarantor covenants and agrees with the Trustee, for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders, that the Indenture is supplemented and amended, to the extent expressed herein as follows: 
1.    Generally.  

(a)Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.
(b)The rules of construction set forth in the Indenture shall be applied hereto as if set forth in full herein.
2.    Agreement to Guarantee.

(a)In accordance with the terms of Article Ten of the Indenture, the Guarantor jointly and severally, with any other Guarantors, and fully and unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Securities or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:

(i)    the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities, if lawful (subject in all cases to any applicable grace period provided in the Indenture), and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee under the Securities or under the Indenture, including any obligations to repurchase Securities from the Holders, will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

(ii)    in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities or any of such other obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.  Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantor shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately.  The Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b)The Guarantor hereby agrees that, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Securities or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Securities with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Guarantor.
(c)The Guarantor, subject to Section 6.06 of the Indenture, hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Securities and the Indenture.
(d)The Guarantor agrees that if any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to any of the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by any of them to the Trustee or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.
(e)The Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.
(f)The Guarantor agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Six of the Indenture for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such 

obligations as provided in Article Six of the Indenture, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purpose of this Guarantee.
(g)If the Guarantor makes a payment under its Guarantee, the Guarantor shall have the right to seek contribution from any non‐paying Guarantor, so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Guarantee. 
(h)The Guarantor confirms, pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Indenture, that the maximum aggregate amount guaranteed hereunder shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed without rendering this Guarantee voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.
3.    Execution and Delivery.  The Guarantor agrees that the Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Security a notation of such Guarantee.

4.    Guarantor May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

(a)    Except as set forth in Section 5, the Guarantor agrees that it may not sell, lease, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not the Guarantor is the surviving Person), another Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless (1) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists and (2) the Person acquiring the property in any such sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Guarantor) is organized or existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia and assumes all the obligations of the Guarantor under the Indenture and the Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee.

(a)    In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition governed by Section 4(a)(2), above, upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of the Guarantee endorsed upon the Securities and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by the Guarantor pursuant to the Indenture, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the Guarantor.  Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Securities issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee.  Any Guarantee so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under the Indenture as the Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture as though all of such Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

5.    Release.

(a)    The Guarantor shall be automatically released and relieved of any obligations under its Guarantee, (i)  in connection with any sale or other disposition of all of the capital stock of the Guarantor, or all or substantially all of the Guarantor’s assets, to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Company or a Domestic Subsidiary of the Company required to deliver a Guarantee under Section 4.09 of the Indenture; (ii) upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance as permitted under the Indenture; or (iii) upon release or discharge of all guarantees by the Guarantor of all other indebtedness of the Company, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantees of other indebtedness of the Company.
(b)    Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate to the effect that one of the foregoing requirements has been satisfied and the conditions to the release of the Guarantor under this Section 5 have been met, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of the Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee.  If the Guarantor is not released from its obligations under the Guarantee, the Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities and for any other obligations of the Company as provided in Article Ten of the Indenture.
6.    No Recourse Against Others.  Pursuant to Section 6.07 of the Indenture, no director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder, member, manager or partner of the Guarantor shall have any liability for any obligations of the Guarantor under the Securities, the Indenture, the Guarantee or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.  

7.    Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals.  The recitals contained herein shall be taken as the statements of the Guarantor, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same.  The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or of the Securities.  

8.    Headings, etc.  The headings of Sections of this Supplemental Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.  

9.    Multiple Counterparts.  The parties may sign multiple counterparts of this Supplemental Indenture.  Each signed copy shall be deemed an original, but all of them together represent one and the same agreement.  

10.    Governing Law.  THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

3.    ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
a.    The Plan will be administered by the Committee.  The Committee will have the exclusive authority and responsibility to: (i) interpret the Plan; (ii) select Participants; (iii) set the Employee Target Awards and Performance Goals for Awards within the Plan guidelines; (iv) certify attainment of Performance Goals and other material terms; (v) reduce Awards as provided herein; (vi) authorize the payment of all Awards and expenses of the Plan as they become payable under the Plan; (vii) adopt, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan and its operation; and (viii) make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or desirable for the Plan’s administration including, without limitation, correcting any defect, supplying any omission or reconciling any inconsistency in this Plan in the manner and to the extent it will deem necessary to carry this Plan into effect, but only to the extent any such action would be permitted under Code Section 162(m).

The foregoing provisions are in addition to and will not be deemed to limit or modify, any exculpatory rights or rights to indemnification or the advancement of expenses that any such persons may now or hereafter have, whether under the Company’s articles or bylaws, the Oregon Business Corporation Act, or otherwise.

a.    For each Performance Period, the Committee will select the Eligible Employees who are to participate in the Plan.

No person will be entitled to participate in this Plan or receive any Award under this Plan for any Performance Period unless he or she is so designated as a Participant for that Performance Period.  The Committee may add to or delete Eligible Employees from the list of designated Participants at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, subject to any limitations required to comply with Code Section 162(m).  Selection of an Eligible Employee to participate in the Plan for one Performance Period will not entitle the Eligible Employee to participate in any other Performance Period.
5.    EMPLOYEE TARGET AWARD
a.    For each Performance Period, the Committee may specify a targeted performance award for each Participant, which will be referred to herein as an Employee Target Award.  The Employee Target Award may be expressed, at the Committee’s discretion, as a fixed dollar amount, a percentage of base pay or total pay (excluding payments made under this Plan), or an amount determined pursuant to an objective formula or standard.  Establishment of a Participant’s Employee Target Award for a Performance Period will not imply or require that the same level or any Employee Target Award be set for any subsequent Performance Period or for any other Participant.  At the time the Performance Goals are established (as provided in Section 6(b) below), the Committee will prescribe a formula to determine the percentages (which, subject to Section 6(d) hereof, may be greater than one-hundred percent (100%)) of the Employee Target Award which may be payable based upon the degree of attainment of the Performance Goals during the Performance Period.  The Committee may impose terms and conditions attached to the Award, such as employment on the payment date.  Terms and conditions need not be uniform between Awards and may reflect distinctions based upon the Committee’s discretion.
b.    Notwithstanding anything else herein, unless otherwise specified by the Committee with respect to an Employee Target Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay a Participant an amount (including zero) that is less than the Participant’s Employee Target Award (or attained percentage thereof) regardless of the degree of attainment of the Performance Goals.

3

6.    PERFORMANCE AWARD PROGRAM
a.    Performance Awards.  Subject to Section 7 hereof, each Participant is eligible to receive up to the achieved percentage of their Employee Target Award for a Performance Period (or, subject to Section 5(b), such lesser amount as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion) based upon the attainment of the objective Performance Goals established pursuant to Section 6(b) below and the formula established pursuant to Section 5.  Except as specifically provided in Section 7, no Performance Award will be made to a Participant for a Performance Period unless the minimum Performance Goals for such Performance Period are attained.
b.    Performance Goals.  The Committee will establish the objective performance goals, formulae or standards and the Employee Target Award (if any) applicable to each Participant or class of Participants for a Performance Period in writing before (i) the earlier of 90 days after commencement of the Performance Period or expiration of 25% of the Performance Period, provided that the achievement of the Performance Goals is substantially uncertain at such time, or (ii) such later date as permitted under Code Section 162(m).  Such Performance Goals may incorporate, if and only to the extent permitted under Code Section 162(m), provisions for disregarding (or adjusting for) changes in accounting methods, corporate transactions (including, without limitation, dispositions and acquisitions) and other similar type events or circumstances.  To the extent any such provision would create impermissible discretion under Code Section 162(m) or otherwise violate Code Section 162(m), such provision will be of no force or effect.  These Performance Goals will be based on one or more of the following criteria with regard to the Company (or a Subsidiary, division, other operational unit or administrative department of the Company): (i) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a specified increase in, enterprise value or value creation targets; (ii) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a percentage increase in after-tax or pre-tax profits, including without limitation that attributable to continuing and/or other operations; (iii) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a specified increase in, operational cash flow; (iv) the attainment of a certain level of reduction of, or other specified objectives with regard to limiting the level of increase in all or a portion of, the Company’s bank debt or other long-term or short-term public or private debt or other similar financial obligations of the Company, which may be calculated net of cash balances and/or other offsets and adjustments as may be established by the Committee; (v) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a specified percentage increase in, earnings per share or earnings per share from continuing operations; (vi) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a specified percentage increase in, net sales, revenues, net income or earnings before income tax or other exclusions; (vii) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a specified increase in, return on capital employed (including, without limitation, return on invested capital or return on committed capital); (viii) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a percentage increase in, after-tax or pre-tax return on stockholder equity; (ix) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a percentage increase in, market share; (x) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a percentage increase in, the fair market value of the shares of the Company’s common stock; (xi) the growth in the value of an investment in the Company’s common stock assuming the reinvestment of dividends; (xii) the attainment of a certain level of, reduction of, or other specified objectives with regard to limiting the level of or increase in, all or a portion of controllable expenses or costs or other expenses or costs; or (xiii) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a specified increase in, 

4

economic value added targets based on a cash flow return on investment formula.  In addition, such Performance Goals may be based upon the attainment of specified levels of Company (or Subsidiary, division, other operational unit or administrative department of the Company) performance under one or more of the measures described above relative to the performance of other corporations.  To the extent permitted under Code Section 162(m), but only to the extent permitted under Code Section 162(m) (including, without limitation, compliance with any requirements for shareholder approval), the Committee may: (i) designate additional business criteria on which the Performance Goals may be based or (ii) adjust, modify or amend the aforementioned business criteria.
c.    Determination of Performance.  Except as otherwise provided herein or specified by the Committee at the time the Performance Goals are established, the measures used in Performance Goals set under the Plan will be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and in a manner consistent with the methods used in the preparation of the financial statements included with the Company’s regular reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q.  To the extent any objective Performance Goals are expressed using any measures that require deviations from GAAP, such deviations will be at the discretion of the Committee as exercised at the time the Performance Goals are set.
d.    Maximum Performance Award.  The maximum Performance Award payable to a Participant for any Performance Period is $5,000,000, which shall be proportionately increased for Performance Periods that are longer than one year and decreased for Performance Periods that are shorter than one year.
e.    Payment Date; Committee Certification.  Performance Awards will be paid in cash as soon as administratively feasible after the Performance Period in which they are earned is completed, but not before the Committee certifies in writing that the Performance Goals specified pursuant to Section 6(b) above (except to the extent permitted under Code Section 162(m) and provided in Section 7 with regard to death, disability or certain other termination situations) were, in fact, satisfied.  The Committee will certify satisfaction of the Performance Goals and, except as otherwise provided by the Committee or payable under a deferred compensation arrangement, make Award payments within two and one-half (21⁄2) months after the end of each Performance Period.
7.    EMPLOYMENT ON AWARD DATE GENERALLY REQUIRED FOR AWARD
No Award will be made to any Participant who is not an active employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or affiliates on the date Awards for the Performance Period are generally paid to Participants; provided, however, that the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may make Awards to Participants for a Performance Period in circumstances that the Committee deems appropriate including, but not limited to, a Participant’s death, disability, retirement or other termination of employment during such Performance Period.  All such Awards will be based on achievement of the Performance Goals for the Performance Period, except that, to the extent permitted under Code Section 162(m), in the case of death or disability during the Performance Period (or such other termination or change in control situations as permitted under Code Section 162(m)) an amount equal to or less than the Employee Target 

5

Awards may be made by the Committee either during or after the Performance Period without regard to actual achievement of the Performance Goals.
8.    NON-ASSIGNABILITY
No Award under this Plan nor any right or benefit under this Plan will be subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, garnishment, execution or levy of any kind or charge, and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber and to the extent permitted by applicable law, charge, garnish, execute upon or levy upon the same will be void and will not be recognized or given effect by the Company or the Plan.
9.    NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT
Nothing in the Plan or in any notice of award pursuant to the Plan will confer upon any person the right to continue in the employment of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or affiliates nor affect the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates to terminate the employment of any Participant, all without incurring liability under this Plan.
10.    TERM; AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION; CODE SECTION 409A
a.    This Plan shall be effective February 27, 2012.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Plan shall terminate unless it is approved at the next annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders following the date the Board adopts this plan.  Once approved by the Company’s shareholders, this Plan shall continue in effect until the Plan is terminated under Section 10(b).
b.    The Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) may, in its sole and absolute discretion, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or adopt a new plan in place of this Plan at any time; provided, however, that no such amendment will, without the prior approval of the shareholders of the Company entitled to vote thereon in accordance with the laws of the State of Oregon to the extent required under Code Section 162(m): (i) materially alter the Performance Goals as set forth in Section 6(b); (ii) increase the maximum amount set forth in Section 6(d); (iii) change the class of Eligible Employees set forth in Section 4(a); or (iv) implement any change to a provision of the Plan requiring shareholder approval in order for the Plan to continue to comply with the requirements of Code Section 162(m).  Furthermore, no amendment, suspension or termination will, without the consent of the Participant, alter or impair a Participant’s right to receive payment of an Award for a Performance Period otherwise payable hereunder.
c.    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any provision in this Plan that is inconsistent with Code Section 409A is deemed to be amended to comply with Code Section 409A and to the extent such provision cannot be amended to comply therewith, such provision will be void.  The Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) may at any time and from time to time amend, in whole or in part, any or all of the provisions of this Plan to comply with Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder or any other applicable law without Participant consent.

6

11.    SEVERABILITY
In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in the Plan will, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision of the Plan and the Plan will be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions had never been contained therein.
12.    WITHHOLDING
The Company will have the right to withhold or make such provisions as it deems necessary or appropriate to satisfy any obligations it may have to withhold federal, state or local income or other taxes incurred by reason of payments pursuant to the Plan.
13.    GOVERNING LAW
This Plan and any amendments thereto will be construed, administered, and governed in all respects in accordance with the laws of the State of Oregon (regardless of the law that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflict of laws).
