Base Plan, and who continues, on that basis, to accrue Credited Service and pension credits under that Plan, shall continue to accrue Credited Service for the purposes of the Supplementary Pension Plan. 
 For the purposes of the Supplementary Pension Plan, a disabled Senior Executive is deemed to have retired on the date he retired under the Base Plan.

	(a)	Funding beginning at age 60 

 From the moment the
Senior Executive reaches age 60, and provided he holds an Eligible Position on that date, Domtar Inc. shall fund the benefits payable under this Plan by means of the Trust Fund contemplated in the Trust Agreement. This Plan shall thereafter be a
retirement compensation arrangement within the meaning of the Income Tax Act. 
 Funding shall be effected by amortizing, over a five
(5) year period, the cost of the benefits of this Plan for participation prior to age 60 and by paying, annually, the current service cost. The Base Plan’s actuary will determine the payments on account of amortization and current service.

 Subject to paragraph (b), amounts paid by Domtar Inc. under the Trust Agreement shall vest in a Senior Executive only if he retires on the
Normal Retirement Date and holds an Eligible Position at the time of his retirement. The Trustee shall pay the benefits under this Plan to the Senior Executive from that date onward. Any amount remaining in the Trust Fund after all benefits required
to be paid under this Plan have been paid, including any Refundable Tax balance, shall be returned to Domtar Inc. If the Senior Executive terminates employment, dies or ceases to hold an Eligible Position prior to the Normal Retirement Date, the
Trust Fund, including the Refundable Tax, shall be returned to Domtar Inc. and the Trust Agreement shall terminate.

 Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Article, in the event of Default or Change of Control Domtar shall fully fund the benefits accrued by the Senior Executive under this Plan in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Trust
Agreement, regardless of the Senior Executive’s age. In the event of (i) Default or (ii) death or termination of employment of the Senior Executive within twelve months following a Change of Control, or in the event that during such
period, his employment is terminated by Domtar for a reason other than a serious breach of his duties causing a material prejudice to Domtar or, if during the same period, he ceases to hold an Eligible Position or the duties of the position he held
at the time of the Change of Control are changed or reduced in such a manner as can reasonably be considered a constructive dismissal, the amounts paid by Domtar pursuant to the Trust Agreement are fully vested to the Senior Executive and, upon
written notice from him or his assigns, as the case may be, the Trustee shall pay such amounts to him in accordance with the Trust Agreement, particularly Articles 4 to 7. 
  

	15.	Non-Alienation of Benefits 

 No benefit payable under the provisions
of the Supplementary Pension Plan shall be in any manner capable of anticipation, surrender, commutation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge; nor shall any such benefit be in any manner subject to the debts,
contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of the person entitled to such benefit, except as specifically provided in any applicable legislation. 
  

	16.	Conflicts or Inconsistencies 

 In the event of any conflict or
inconsistency between the provisions of the Supplementary Pension Plan and the provisions of the Base Plan, the provisions of the Supplementary Pension Plan shall prevail. 
  

	17.	Amendments 

 Domtar Inc. or the Committee on the recommendation of
the President and Chief Executive Officer of Domtar Inc. reserves the right to amend or terminate the Supplementary Pension Plan at any time. No change or termination shall adversely affect any benefits that have accrued up to the effective date of
