NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE QUARTERS AND YEARS-TO-DATE ENDED JUNE 30, 2017 AND 2016

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We are a corporation that has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT). We expect to derive most of our REIT income from investments in timberlands, including the sale of standing timber. As a REIT, we generally are not subject to federal corporate level income taxes on REIT taxable income that is distributed to shareholders. We are required to pay corporate income taxes on earnings of our taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRSs), which includes our Wood Products segment and portions of our Timberlands and Real Estate, Energy and Natural Resources (Real Estate & ENR) segments.

Our consolidated financial statements provide an overall view of our results and financial condition. They include our accounts and the accounts of entities we control, including:


•	majority-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries and


•	variable interest entities in which we are the primary beneficiary.

They do not include our intercompany transactions and accounts, which are eliminated.

We account for investments in and advances to unconsolidated equity affiliates using the equity method, with taxes provided on undistributed earnings. This means that we record earnings and accrue taxes in the period earnings are recognized by our unconsolidated equity affiliates.

Throughout these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, unless specified otherwise, references to “Weyerhaeuser,” “we,” “the company” and “our” refer to the consolidated company.

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual Consolidated Financial Statements have been condensed or omitted. These quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 . Results of operations for interim periods should not necessarily be regarded as indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

We have reclassified certain balances and results from the prior year to be consistent with our 2017 reporting. This makes year-to-year comparisons easier. Our reclassifications had no effect on consolidated net earnings or equity. Our reclassifications present the adoption of new accounting pronouncements on our Consolidated Statement of Operations and in the related footnotes. Refer to discussion of new accounting pronouncements below.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which deferred the effective date for an additional year. In March 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-08, which does not change the core principle of the guidance; however, it does clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-10, which clarifies two aspects of ASU 2014-09: identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance. In May 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-12, which amends ASU 2014-09 to provide improvements and practical expedients to the new revenue recognition model. In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-20, which amends ASU 2014-09 for technical corrections and to correct for unintended application of the guidance. In February 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-05, which clarifies the scope of ASC 610-20 and impacts accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets.

The company expects to adopt and implement the new revenue recognition guidance effective January 1, 2018. The new standard is required to be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective transition method) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying it recognized at the date of initial application (cumulative effect method). We expect to adopt using the cumulative effect method. We expect that the adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance will not materially impact our operating results, balance sheet, or cash flows. We expect an impact to our financial reporting from adding expanded disclosures.

In July 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-11, which simplifies the measurement of inventories valued under most methods, including our inventories valued under FIFO – the first-in, first-out – and moving average cost methods. Inventories valued under LIFO – the last-in, first-out method – are excluded. Under this new guidance, inventories valued under these methods would be valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with net realizable value defined as the estimated selling price less reasonable costs to sell the inventory. We adopted on January 1, 2017, and determined this pronouncement does not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases and requires both capital and operating leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt on January 1, 2019, and are evaluating the impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In October 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-16, which requires immediate recognition of the income tax consequences upon intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. We adopted this accounting standard on January 1, 2017. As a result of this adoption, our opening balance sheet was adjusted through "Retained earnings" to include a deferred tax asset of $22 million for prior period intra-entity transfers. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows or Consolidated Statement of Operations .

In March 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-07, which requires that an employer report the service cost component of pension and other postretirement benefit costs in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees. This requirement is consistent with how we have historically presented our pension service costs. The other requirement of this ASU is to present the remaining components of pension and other postretirement benefit costs (i.e., interest, expected return on plan assets, amortization of actuarial gains or losses, and amortization of prior service credits or costs) in the Consolidated Statement of Operations separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. We adopted this accounting standard as of January 1, 2017. As a result, we reclassified amounts related to other components of pension and other post retirement benefit costs from their prior financial statements captions ("Costs of products sold," "General and administrative expenses," and "Other operating costs (income), net") into a new financial statement caption titled "Non-operating pension and other postretirement benefit (costs) credits" in our Consolidated Statement of Operations . The adoption of this ASU did not impact "Net earnings," nor did it impact our Consolidated Balance Sheet .

NOTE 2: BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Reportable business segments are determined based on the company’s management approach. The management approach, as defined by FASB ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” is based on the way the chief operating decision maker organizes the segments within a company for making decisions about resources to be allocated and assessing their performance.

We are principally engaged in growing and harvesting timber; manufacturing, distributing, and selling products made from trees; maximizing the value of every acre we own through the sale of higher and better use (HBU) properties; and monetizing reserves of minerals, oil, gas, coal, and other natural resources on our timberlands. The following is a brief description of each of our reportable business segments and activities:


•	Timberlands – which includes logs, timber and leased recreational access;


•	Real Estate & ENR – which includes sales of timberlands; rights to explore for and extract hard minerals, oil and gas production and coal; and equity interests in our Real Estate Development Ventures (as defined and described in Note 7: Related Parties ); and


•	Wood Products – which includes softwood lumber, engineered wood products, structural panels, medium density fiberboard and building materials distribution.

An analysis and reconciliation of our business segment information to the respective information in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is as follows:

(1)	Net contribution to earnings for the Timberlands segment includes a noncash pretax impairment charge of $147 million , recorded during second quarter 2017. This impairment is a result of our agreement to sell our Uruguayan operations, as announced during June 2017. Refer to Note 3: Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations for more information regarding this transaction.


(2)	The Real Estate & ENR segment includes the equity earnings from, investments in and advances to our Real Estate Development Ventures (as defined and described in Note 7: Related Parties ), which are accounted for under the equity method.


(3)	Net contribution to earnings for the Wood Products segment includes a pretax $50 million charge to accrue for estimated costs to remediate an issue with certain I-joists coated with our Flak Jacket® Protection product. Refer to Note 12: Legal Proceedings, Commitments and Contingencies for additional details.

(4)

Unallocated items are gains or charges not related to, or allocated to, an individual operating segment. They include a portion of items such as: share-based compensation, pension and postretirement costs, foreign exchange transaction gains and losses associated with financing, and the elimination of intersegment profit in inventory and the LIFO reserve. Additionally, amounts shown for 2016 include equity earnings from our former Timberland Venture. As of August 31, 2016, the Timberland Venture became a fully consolidated, wholly-owned subsidiary and therefore eliminated our equity method investment at that time.


(5)	Discontinued operations as presented herein consist of the operations of our former Cellulose Fibers segment. Refer to Note 3: Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations for more information regarding our discontinued operations.

NOTE 3: HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

OPERATIONS HELD FOR SALE

On October 12, 2016, we announced the exploration of strategic alternatives for our Uruguay timberlands and manufacturing operations, which is part of our Timberlands business segment. On June 2, 2017, the Weyerhaeuser Board of Directors approved an equity purchase agreement with a consortium led by BTG Pactual's Timberland Investment Group (TIG), including other long-term investors, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell, in exchange for $403 million in cash, all of its equity interest in subsidiaries that collectively own and operate its Uruguayan timberlands and manufacturing business. The transaction is subject to customary purchase price adjustments, including adjustments relating to working capital, harvest limitations and timber inventory amounts, as well as standard operating covenants, casualty loss provisions, indemnities and closing conditions, including regulatory review. The sale is expected to close in the second half of 2017.

The assets and liabilities of our Uruguayan timberlands and manufacturing business now meet the criteria under generally accepted accounting principles to be classified as held for sale. This designation causes us to show the related assets and liabilities of the Uruguayan business separately on the current period Consolidated Balance Sheet , but does not affect prior period balance sheet classifications. Additionally, the designation as held for sale requires us to record the related net assets at the lower of their current cost basis or fair value, less an amount of estimated selling costs, and thus we recognized a noncash pretax impairment charge. The related impairment charge of $147 million was recorded during second quarter 2017 (refer to Note 15: Charges for Integration and Restructuring, Closures and Asset Impairments ). Other than the impairment charge and the cessation of certain costs associated with held for sale classification, this classification does not affect the presentation in the Consolidated Statement of Operations .

As of June 30, 2017, "Assets held for sale" had a balance of $411 million , which consisted of $41 million related to Inventories and other assets as well as $370 million related to Timberlands and Property and equipment, net, after an impairment of $147 million . The related "Liabilities held for sale" of $19 million consisted of Accounts payable and other liabilities.

The sale of our Uruguayan operations is not considered a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on our operations or financial results and therefore does not meet the requirements for presentation as discontinued operations.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

During 2016, we entered into three separate transactions to sell our Cellulose Fibers business. As a result of these transactions, the company recognized a pretax gain on disposition of $789 million and total cash proceeds of $2.5 billion in the second half of 2016. These transactions consisted of:


•	sale of our Cellulose Fibers liquid packaging board business to Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd, which closed on August 31, 2016;


•	sale of our Cellulose Fibers printing papers joint venture to One Rock Capital Partners, LLC, which closed on November 1, 2016; and


•	sale of our Cellulose Fibers pulp business to International Paper, which closed on December 1, 2016.

The results of operations for our pulp and liquid packaging board businesses, along with our interest in our printing papers joint venture, were reclassified to discontinued operations during our 2016 reporting year. These results have been summarized in "Earnings from discontinued operations, net of income taxes" on our Consolidated Statement of Operations for each period presented. We did not reclassify our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows to reflect discontinued operations.

The following table presents net earnings from discontinued operations. As all discontinued operations were sold in 2016, no assets or liabilities remain as of June 30, 2017 , or December 31, 2016 .

NOTE 4: MERGER WITH PLUM CREEK

On February 19, 2016, we merged with Plum Creek Timber Company, Inc. (Plum Creek). Plum Creek was a REIT that primarily owned and managed timberlands in the United States. Plum Creek also produced wood products, developed opportunities for mineral and other natural resource extraction, and sold real estate properties.

The acquisition of total assets of $10.0 billion was a noncash investing and financing activity comprised of $6.4 billion in equity consideration transferred and $3.6 billion of liabilities assumed.

Summarized unaudited pro forma information that presents combined amounts as if this merger occurred at the beginning of 2016 is as follows:



	QUARTER ENDED		YEAR-TO-DATE ENDED
DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER-SHARE FIGURES	JUNE 2016		JUNE 2016
Net sales	$	1,655	$	3,216
Net earnings from continuing operations attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders	$	122	$	266
Earnings from continuing operations per share attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders, basic and diluted	$	0.16	$	0.35

Pro forma "Net earnings from continuing operations attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders" excludes $3 million and $134 million non-recurring merger-related costs (net of tax) incurred in the quarter and year-to-date ended June 30, 2016 , respectively. Pro forma data may not be indicative of the results that would have been obtained had these events occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, nor is it intended to be a projection of future results.

NOTE 5: NET EARNINGS PER SHARE

Our basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to Weyerhaeuser shareholders were:


•	$0.03 during second quarter 2017 and $0.24 during year-to-date 2017 ; and


•	$0.21 during second quarter 2016 and $0.33 during year-to-date 2016 .

Basic earnings per share is net earnings available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of our outstanding common shares, including stock equivalent units where there is no circumstance under which those shares would not be issued.

Diluted earnings per share is net earnings available to common shareholders divided by the sum of the weighted average number of our outstanding common shares and the effect of our outstanding dilutive potential common shares:



	QUARTER ENDED		YEAR-TO-DATE ENDED
SHARES IN THOUSANDS	JUNE 2017	JUNE 2016	JUNE 2017	JUNE 2016
Weighted average number of outstanding common shares – basic	752,630	743,140	751,674	687,572
Dilutive potential common shares:

Restricted stock units	488	1,075	518	678
Performance share units	488	425	520	412
Total effect of outstanding dilutive potential common shares	3,821	4,561	3,951	3,488
Weighted average number of outstanding common shares – dilutive	756,451	747,701	755,625	691,060

We use the treasury stock method to calculate the dilutive effect of our outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units. Share-based payment awards that are contingently issuable upon the achievement of specified performance or market conditions are included in our diluted earnings per share calculation in the period in which the conditions are satisfied.

Potential Shares Not Included in the Computation of Diluted Earnings per Share

The following shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were either antidilutive or the required performance or market conditions were not met. Some or all of these shares may be dilutive potential common shares in future periods.



	QUARTER ENDED		YEAR-TO-DATE ENDED
SHARES IN THOUSANDS	JUNE 2017	JUNE 2016	JUNE 2017	JUNE 2016

Performance share units	450	471	450	471
Preference shares	—	25,273	—	25,273

We issued 13.8 million 6.375 percent Mandatory Convertible Preference Shares, Series A on June 24, 2013 , the majority of which remained outstanding through June 30, 2016. Preference Shares outstanding during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, were considered antidilutive and were not considered participating. On July 1, 2016, all outstanding 6.375 percent Mandatory Convertible Preference Shares, Series A (Preference Shares) converted into Weyerhaeuser common shares at a rate of 1.6929 Weyerhaeuser common shares per Preference Share. There were no preference shares outstanding as of June 30, 2017 .

NOTE 6: INVENTORIES

Inventories include raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods.

LIFO – the last-in, first-out method – applies to major inventory products held at our U.S. domestic locations. The FIFO – the first-in, first-out method – or moving average cost methods apply to the balance of our domestic raw material and product inventories as well as for all material and supply inventories and all foreign inventories. If we used FIFO for all LIFO inventories, our stated inventories would have been higher by $70 million as of June 30, 2017 , and $71 million as of December 31, 2016 .

NOTE 7: RELATED PARTIES

This note provides details about our transactions with related parties. Our related parties consist of:


•	our Real Estate Development Ventures, which are accounted for using the equity method and


•	our Twin Creeks Venture.

Real Estate Development Ventures

WestRock-Charleston Land Partners, LLC (WR-CLP) is a limited liability company which holds residential and commercial real estate development properties, currently under development (Class A Properties) and higher-value timber and development lands (Class B Properties) (referred to collectively as the Real Estate Development Ventures). Our share of the equity earnings are included in the net contribution to earnings of our Real Estate & ENR segment.

The carrying amount of our investment in WR-CLP is $33 million at June 30, 2017 , and $56 million at December 31, 2016 . The change in our investment in WR-CLP during 2017 is due to a $23 million cash return of investment received during second quarter 2017. We record our share of net earnings within "Equity earnings from joint ventures" in our Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period which earnings are recorded by the affiliates. We did not have any equity earnings from joint ventures during second quarter or year-to-date 2017 .

Twin Creeks Venture

On April 1, 2016, we contributed approximately 260,000 acres of our southern timberlands with an agreed-upon value of approximately $560 million to Twin Creeks Timber, LLC (Twin Creeks Venture), in exchange for cash of approximately $440 million and a 21 percent ownership interest.

In conjunction with contributing to the venture, we entered into a separate agreement to manage the timberlands owned by the Twin Creeks Venture, including harvesting activities, marketing and log sales activities, and replanting and silviculture activities. This management agreement guarantees the Twin Creeks Venture an annual return equal to 3 percent of the contributed value of the managed timberlands in the form of minimum quarterly payments from Weyerhaeuser. We are also required to annually distribute 75 percent of any profits earned by us in excess of the minimum quarterly payments. The management agreement is cancellable at any time by Twin Creeks Timber, LLC, and otherwise will expire on April 1, 2019.

Changes in our "Deposit from contribution of timberlands to related party" balance during 2017 were as follows:

On January 1, 2017, we adopted ASU 2017-07, which affects where components of pension and other postretirement costs are presented on the Consolidated Statement of Operations . Refer to Note 1: Basis of Presentation for further information.

FAIR VALUE OF PENSION PLAN ASSETS AND OBLIGATION

We estimate the fair value of pension plan assets based upon the information available during the year-end reporting process. In some cases, primarily private equity funds, the information available consists of net asset values as of an interim date, cash flows between the interim date and the end of the year and market events. We update the year-end estimated fair value of pension plan assets to incorporate year-end net asset values reflected in financial statements received after we have filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K. During second quarter 2017 , we recorded an increase in the fair value of the pension assets of $17 million , or less than 1 percent. We also updated our census data that is used to estimate our projected benefit obligation for our pension plans. As a result of that update, during second quarter 2017 , we recorded a

decrease to the projected benefit obligation of $10 million , or less than 1 percent. The net effect was a $27 million improvement in the funded status compared to December 31, 2016.

EXPECTED CONTRIBUTIONS AND BENEFIT PAYMENTS

In 2017 we expect to:


•	be required to contribute approximately $23 million for our Canadian registered plan;


•	be required to contribute or make benefit payments for our Canadian nonregistered plans of $3 million ;


•	make benefit payments of $26 million for our U.S. nonqualified pension plans; and


•	make benefit payments of $21 million for our U.S. and Canadian other postretirement plans.

We do not anticipate making a contribution to our U.S. qualified pension plans for 2017 .

NOTE 9: ACCRUED LIABILITIES

Accrued liabilities were comprised of the following:



DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS	JUNE 30, 2017		DECEMBER 31, 2016
Wages, salaries and severance pay	$	118	$	178

(1)	In the second quarter of 2017, we recorded a $50 million accrual for estimated costs to remediate an issue with certain I-joists coated with our Flak Jacket® Protection product. Refer to Note 12: Legal Proceedings, Commitments and Contingencies for additional details.

NOTE 10: LONG-TERM DEBT AND LINES OF CREDIT

During March 2017, we entered into a new $1.5 billion five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility that expires in March 2022 . This replaced a $1 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility that was set to expire September 2018 . The entire amount is available to Weyerhaeuser Company. Borrowings are at LIBOR plus a spread or at other interest rates mutually agreed upon between the borrower and the lending banks. There were no borrowings or repayments under our revolving credit facility during year-to-date June 30, 2017 .

Subsequent to our quarter ended June 30, 2017, but prior to the issuance of these financial statements, we prepaid a $550 million variable-rate term loan originally set to mature in 2020 (2020 term loan). The 2020 term loan was prepaid using available cash as well as borrowing proceeds from a new $225 million variable-rate term loan set to mature in 2026 (2026 term loan). Due to the use of available cash to settle a portion of the 2020 term loan, we have reclassified the related portion ( $325 million ) of the 2020 term loan outstanding at June 30, 2017, from "Long-term debt" to "Current maturities of long-term debt" on our current period Consolidated Balance Sheet .

NOTE 11: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The estimated fair values and carrying values of our long-term debt consisted of the following:



	JUNE 30, 2017				DECEMBER 31, 2016
DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS	CARRYING VALUE		FAIR VALUE (LEVEL 2)		CARRYING VALUE		FAIR VALUE (LEVEL 2)
Long-term debt (including current maturities):
Fixed rate	$	6,054	$	7,142	$	6,061	$	6,925
Variable rate	550		550		549		550
Total Debt	$	6,604	$	7,692	$	6,610	$	7,475

To estimate the fair value of fixed rate long-term debt, we used the following valuation approaches:


•	market approach – based on quoted market prices we received for the same types and issues of our debt; or


•	income approach – based on the discounted value of the future cash flows using market yields for the same type and comparable issues of debt.

We believe that our variable rate long-term debt instruments have net carrying values that approximate their fair values with only insignificant differences.

The inputs to these valuations are based on market data obtained from independent sources or information derived principally from observable market data. The difference between the fair value and the carrying value represents the theoretical net premium or discount we would pay or receive to retire all debt at the measurement date.

FAIR VALUE OF OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We believe that our other financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, mutual fund investments held in grantor trusts, receivables, and payables, have net carrying values that approximate their fair values with only insignificant differences. This is primarily due to the short-term nature of these instruments and the allowance for doubtful accounts.

NOTE 12: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any legal proceeding that management believes could have a material adverse effect on our long-term consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. See Note 17: Income Taxes for a discussion of a tax proceeding involving Plum Creek REIT's 2008 U.S. federal income tax return.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

Site Remediation

Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) – commonly known as the Superfund – and similar state laws, we:


•	are a party to various proceedings related to the cleanup of hazardous waste sites and


•	have been notified that we may be a potentially responsible party related to the cleanup of other hazardous waste sites for which proceedings have not yet been initiated.

We have received notification from the Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA) and have acknowledged that we are a potentially responsible party in a portion of the Kalamazoo River Superfund site in southwest Michigan. Our involvement in the remediation site is based on our former ownership of the Plainwell, Michigan mill located within the remediation site. Several other companies also operated upstream pulp mills within the remediation site. We are currently cooperating with the other parties to jointly implement an administrative order issued by the EPA on April 14, 2016, with respect to a portion of the site comprising a stretch of the river approximately 1.7 miles long referred to as the Otsego Township Dam Area. We do not expect to incur material losses related to the implementation of this administrative order; however, we may incur additional costs, as yet not specified, in connection with remediation tasks resulting from other areas of the site. The company, along with others, was named as a defendant by Georgia-Pacific Consumer Products LP, Fort James Corporation and Georgia-Pacific LLC in an action seeking contribution under CERCLA for remediation costs relating to the site. The trial has been concluded but a decision on cost contribution and allocation has not yet been rendered by the Court.

As of June 30, 2017 , our total accrual for future estimated remediation costs on the active Superfund sites and other sites for which we are responsible was approximately $47 million . These reserves are recorded in "Accrued liabilities" (current) and "Other liabilities" (noncurrent) on our Consolidated Balance Sheet .

Asset Retirement Obligations

We have obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets consisting primarily of reforestation obligations related to forest management licenses in Canada and obligations to close and cap landfills. As of June 30, 2017 , our accrued balance for these obligations was $31 million . These obligations are recorded in "Accrued liabilities" (current) and "Other liabilities" (noncurrent) on our Consolidated Balance Sheet . The accruals have not changed materially since the end of 2016 .

Some of our sites have materials containing asbestos. We have met our current legal obligation to identify and manage these materials. In situations where we cannot reasonably determine when materials containing asbestos might be removed from the sites, we have not recorded an accrual because the fair value of the obligation cannot be reasonably estimated.

PRODUCT REMEDIATION CONTINGENCY

In July 2017, the company announced it is implementing a solution to address concerns regarding our TJI® Joists with Flak Jacket® Protection product. The company has determined that an odor in certain newly constructed homes is related to a recent formula change to the Flak Jacket coating that included formaldehyde-based resin. This issue is isolated to Flak Jacket product manufactured after December 1, 2016, and does not affect any of the company’s other products. The company also announced it will cover the cost to either remediate or replace affected joists. The estimated range of costs to remediate or replace is $50 million to $60 million . As of June 30, 2017, we have recorded a $50 million reserve for remediation costs. The charge is attributable to our Wood Products segment and was recorded in "Other operating costs (income), net," on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The related accrual was recorded in "Accrued liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet .

NOTE 14: SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Share-based compensation activity during year-to-date 2017 included the following:



SHARES IN THOUSANDS	Granted	Vested
Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)	763	710
Performance Share Units (PSUs)	348	160

A total of 4.2 million shares of common stock were issued as a result of RSU vesting, PSU vesting and stock option exercises.

RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

The weighted average fair value of the RSUs granted in 2017 was $32.79 . The vesting provisions for RSUs granted in 2017 were as follows:


•	vest ratably over four years;


•	immediately vest in the event of death while employed or disability;


•	continue to vest upon retirement at an age of at least 62, but a portion of the grant forfeits if retirement occurs before the one year anniversary of the grant;


•	continue vesting for one year in the event of involuntary termination when the retirement criteria has not been met; and


•	will forfeit upon termination of employment in all other situations including early retirement prior to age 62.

PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS

The weighted average grant date fair value of PSUs granted in 2017 was $37.93 .

The final number of shares granted in 2017 will range from 0 percent to 150 percent of each grant's target, depending upon actual company performance.

The ultimate number of PSUs earned is based on two measures:


•	our relative total shareholder return (TSR) ranking measured against the S&P 500 over a three year period and


•	our relative TSR ranking measured against an industry peer group of companies over a three year period.

The vesting provisions for PSUs granted in 2017 were as follows:


•	vest 100 percent on the third anniversary of the grant date as long as the individual remains employed by the company;


•	fully vest in the event the participant dies or becomes disabled while employed;


•	continue to vest upon retirement at an age of at least 62, but a portion of the grant forfeits if retirement occurs before the one year anniversary of the grant;


•	continue vesting for one year in the event of involuntary termination when the retirement criteria has not been met and the employee has met the second anniversary of the grant date; and


•	will forfeit upon termination of employment in all other situations including early retirement prior to age 62.

Weighted Average Assumptions Used in Estimating the Value of Performance Share Units Granted in 2017

Expected dividends	3.74					%
Risk-free rate	0.68		%	–	1.55	%
Expected volatility	22.71		%	–	24.07	%

(1) Calculated as an average of the high and low prices on grant date.

STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

We have not granted any stock options or stock appreciation rights during 2017 , nor do we expect any grants to occur during the remainder of 2017 .

VALUE MANAGEMENT AWARDS

Value Management Awards (VMAs) are relative performance equity incentive awards granted to certain former employees of Plum Creek and assumed by the company in connection with the Plum Creek merger. In accordance with the terms of the merger, all VMAs outstanding on December 31, 2017, will vest at “target” level performance of $100 per unit and will be paid in the first quarter of 2018. The VMAs are classified and accounted for as liabilities, as they will be settled in cash upon vesting. The expense recognized over the remaining performance period will equal the cash value of an award as of the last day of the performance period multiplied by the number of awards that are earned. Expense for VMAs will continue to be recognized over the remaining service period unless a qualifying termination occurs. A qualifying termination of any holder of a VMA award before December 31, 2017, will accelerate vesting and expense recognition in the period that the qualifying termination occurs.

INTEGRATION, RESTRUCTURING AND CLOSURES

During 2017 , we incurred and accrued for termination benefits (primarily severance) and non-recurring professional services costs directly attributable to our merger with Plum Creek.

During 2016 , we incurred and accrued for termination benefits (primarily severance), accelerated share-based payment costs, and accelerated pension benefits based upon actual and expected qualifying terminations of certain employees as a result of restructuring decisions made subsequent to the merger. We also incurred non-recurring professional services costs for investment banking, legal and consulting, and certain other fees directly attributable to our merger with Plum Creek.

Changes in accrued severance related to restructuring during the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2017 , were as follows:

Accrued severance is recorded within the "Wages, salaries and severance pay" component of "Accrued liabilities" on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as detailed in Note 9: Accrued Liabilities . The majority of the accrued severance balance as of June 30, 2017 , is expected to be paid within one year.

IMPAIRMENTS OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The impairment of long-lived assets charge recognized in second quarter 2017, related to the impairment of our Uruguayan timberlands and manufacturing business. On June 2, 2017, our Board of Directors approved an agreement to sell all of the Company's equity in the Uruguayan business to a consortium led by BTG Pactual's Timberland Investment Group (TIG.) As a result of this agreement, the related assets met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. This designation required us to record the related assets at fair value, less an amount of estimated selling costs, and thus recognize a $147 million noncash pretax impairment charge. This amount was recorded in the Timberlands segment. The fair value of the related assets was primarily based on the agreed upon cash purchase price of $403 million . Refer to Note 3: Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations for further details of the related purchase agreement.

(1)	Gain on disposition of nonstrategic assets included a $36 million pretax gain recognized in the first quarter of 2016 on the sale of our Federal Way, Washington headquarters campus. The remaining gains on disposition of nonstrategic assets includes sales such as redundant offices and nurseries.


(2)	Foreign exchange losses (gains) result from changes in exchange rates, primarily related to our Canadian operations.


(3)	In the second quarter of 2017, we recorded a $50 million charge to accrue for estimated costs to remediate an issue with certain I-joists coated with our Flak Jacket® Protection product. Refer to Note 12: Legal Proceedings, Commitments and Contingencies for additional details.

NOTE 17: INCOME TAXES

As a REIT, we generally are not subject to federal corporate level income taxes on REIT taxable income that is distributed to shareholders. We are required to pay corporate income taxes on earnings of our wholly-owned TRSs, which includes our Wood Products segment and portions of our Timberlands and Real Estate & ENR segments' earnings.

The quarterly provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective tax rate. Our 2017 estimated annual effective tax rate for our TRSs is approximately 33 percent , which is lower than the U.S. domestic statutory federal tax rate primarily due to lower foreign tax rates applicable to foreign earnings.

ONGOING IRS MATTER

In connection with the merger with Plum Creek, we acquired equity interests in Southern Diversified Timber, LLC, a timberland joint venture (Timberland Venture) with an affiliate of Campbell Global LLC (TCG Member). On August 31, 2016, the Timberland Venture redeemed TCG Member's interest and became a fully consolidated, wholly-owned subsidiary of Weyerhaeuser.

We received a Notice of Final Partnership Administrative Adjustment (FPAA), dated July 20, 2016, from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in regard to Plum Creek’s 2008 U.S. federal income tax treatment of the transaction forming the Timberland Venture. The IRS is asserting that the transfer of the timberlands to the Timberland Venture was a taxable transaction to Plum Creek at the time of the transfer rather than a nontaxable capital contribution. We have filed a petition in the U.S. Tax Court and will vigorously contest this adjustment.

In the event that we are unsuccessful in this tax litigation, we could be required to recognize and distribute gain to shareholders of approximately $600 million and pay built-in gains tax of approximately $100 million . We would also be required to pay interest on both of those amounts, which would be substantial. We expect that as much as 80 percent of any such gain distribution could be made with our common stock, and shareholders would be subject to tax on the distribution at the applicable capital gains tax rate. Alternatively, we could elect to retain the gain and pay corporate-level tax to minimize interest costs to the company.

Although the outcome of this process cannot be predicted with certainty, we are confident in our position based on U.S. tax law and believe we will be successful in defending it. Accordingly, no reserve has been recorded related to this matter.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In reviewing our results of operations, it is important to understand these terms:


•	Sales realizations for Timberlands and Wood Products refer to net selling prices – this includes selling price plus freight, minus normal sales deductions. Real Estate transactions are presented at the contract sales price before commissions and closing costs, net of any credits.


•	Net contribution to earnings does not include interest expense and income taxes.

In the following discussion, unless otherwise noted, references to increases or decreases in income and expense items, sales realizations, shipment volumes, and net contributions to earnings are based on the quarter and year-to-date period ended June 30, 2017 , compared to the quarter and year-to-date period ended June 30, 2016 .

ECONOMIC AND MARKET CONDITIONS AFFECTING OUR OPERATIONS

The demand for logs within our Timberlands segment is directly affected by production levels of domestic wood-based building products. The strength of the U.S. housing market strongly affects demand in our Wood Products segment, as does repair and remodeling activity. Our Timberlands segment, specifically the Western region, is also affected by export demand. Japanese housing starts are a key driver of export log demand in Japan.

As published by the U.S. Census Bureau, total housing starts for 2016 were 1.17 million units. In the first half of 2017 , housing starts averaged 1.2 million total units on a seasonally adjusted annual basis according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Single family units accounted for 69 percent of total housing starts in the first half of 2017 . We continue to expect improving U.S. housing starts and anticipate a level of approximately 1.25 million units in 2017 , a 7 percent increase compared to 2016. We attribute this continued improvement primarily to employment growth, improving consumer confidence and historically low mortgage rates.

According to the Joint Center for Housing of Harvard University, the Leading Indicator of Remodeling Activity (LIRA), has increased by 6.9 percent in first half of 2017 and is expected to average just under 6.7 percent year over year for 2017.

U.S. wood product markets advanced in the second quarter of 2017 , consistent with growth in homebuilding and remodeling segments, as described above. According to Forest Economic Advisors, LLC (FEA), North American lumber consumption is expected to grow at a 4 to 5 percent rate in 2017 . Consistent with this expectation, demand for logs increased with wood products production within our Western region. This coupled with slightly higher market prices in second quarter 2017 drove higher realizations within this region. In the South, log supplies kept pace with increased demand, leaving prices relatively flat year-to-date.

Log inventories in Chinese ports decreased during second quarter 2017 but remained in a reasonable range for the period. Log demand within these ports has strengthened versus previous year levels due to stronger construction activity. In Japan, housing starts for January through May 2017 are up 2.2 percent from the same period last year.

We expect demand from China and Japan in 2017 to be similar to modestly improved from demand experienced in 2016 .

Our Real Estate, Energy and Natural Resources segment is affected by the health of the U.S. economy and especially the U.S. housing sector of the economy. According to the Realtors Land Institute of the National Association of Realtors, prices and volumes of rural timber properties sold in 2016 grew 5 percent over 2015 sales. Additionally, sales of these types of properties are expected to grow 3 percent in 2017 when compared to 2016 .

SOFTWOOD LUMBER AGREEMENT

We operate a total of 19 softwood lumber mills with a total capacity of 4.9 billion board feet. Three of these mills are located in Canada, produce approximately 900 million board feet annually, and sell products in Canada, Asia, and the U.S.

On April 24, 2017, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced a preliminary determination that it would implement countervailing duties on Canadian softwood lumber shipments to the U.S. The rate applicable to Weyerhaeuser is 19.88 percent and became effective as of April 28, 2017. The U.S. Department of Commerce also announced that retroactive deposits at the 19.88 percent rate will be collected from certain Canadian lumber producers, including Weyerhaeuser, for softwood lumber shipments from Canada to the U.S. during the 90-day period prior to April 28, 2017.

The preliminary countervailing duties are expected to be suspended on August 28, four months after they became effective. The suspension of the countervailing duties will last until the US International Trade Commission reaches its final determination of injury, which is expected to be in December of this year.

On June 26, 2017, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced a preliminary determination that it would implement anti-dumping duties on Canadian softwood lumber shipments to the U.S. The rate applicable to Weyerhaeuser is 6.87 percent and became effective as of June 30, 2017. The U.S. Department of Commerce also announced that retroactive deposits at the 6.87 percent rate will be collected from certain Canadian lumber producers, including Weyerhaeuser, for softwood lumber shipments from Canada to the U.S. during the 90-day period prior to June 30, 2017.

In second quarter 2017, we recorded an expense of approximately $8 million in our Wood Products segment related to the retroactive countervailing and antidumping duties. We also began expensing the prospective duties as incurred, which as of June 30, 2017 totaled $3 million.

Comparing Second Quarter 2017 with Second Quarter 2016

Net sales

Net sales increased $153 million – 9 percent – primarily attributable to the following factors:

•

Wood Products sales to unaffiliated customers increased $147 million – 13 percent – primarily due to increased average sales realizations within our oriented strand board and structural lumber product lines, as well as, increased sales volumes within our engineered solid section and engineered I-joists product lines. Additionally, upon completion of the sales of our former Cellulose Fibers businesses, chips previously sold to Cellulose Fibers are now sales to unaffiliated customers.


•	Real Estate & ENR sales to unaffiliated buyers increased $8 million – 21 percent – primarily attributable to a $7 million increase in ENR sales.

These increases were partially offset by decreased Timberlands sales to unaffiliated customers, which decreased by $2 million – less than 1 percent – primarily due to a decrease in delivered log sales volumes and decreases in Southern and Northern average sales realizations for delivered logs. These decreases in Timberlands were partially offset by an increase in Western Timberlands average sales realizations for delivered logs.

Costs of products sold

Costs of products sold increased $65 million – 5 percent – primarily attributable to the following:


•	Wood Products segment costs of products sold increased $45 million – 5 percent – primarily due to increased sales volumes in several product lines.

•

Intercompany eliminations of costs of products sold decreased $52 million, therefore increasing consolidated cost of products. This reduction in intercompany costs of products sold is primarily due to the completion of the sales of our former Cellulose Fibers businesses. Chips and logs previously sold to Cellulose Fibers are now sales to unaffiliated customers and therefore have related cost of products sold.

These increases to costs of products sold were offset by decreased Timberlands segment costs of products sold, which decreased $33 million –6 percent – primarily due to a 3 percent decrease in sales volumes.

Operating income

Operating income decreased $91 million – 37 percent – primarily attributable to the $147 million noncash impairment charge recognized in relation to the company agreeing to sell its Uruguayan operations, as well as additional other operating costs associated with product remediation ($50 million) and countervailing/antidumping costs ($11 million). Refer to Note 15: Charges for Integration and Restructuring, Closures and Asset Impairments , Softwood Lumber Agreement , and Note 16: Other Operating Costs (Income), Net for further information on these respective topics. Excluding these charges, operating income increased $117 million which is primarily due to increased gross margin, as explained above.

Net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders

Our net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders decreased $133 million – 85 percent. Excluding 2016 "Earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax," net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders decreased $95 million, primarily attributable to decreased operating income, as described above, as well as an increase in "Non-operating pension and other postretirement benefit (costs) credits". These increased costs were partially offset by increased gross margins, as discussed above, as well as reduced "General and administrative expenses."

"Earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax," decreased $38 million as all discontinued operations were sold in 2016.

Comparing Year-to-Date 2017 with Year-to-Date 2016

Net sales

Net sales increased $441 million – 14 percent – primarily attributable to the following factors:


•	Wood Products sales to unaffiliated customers increased $322 million – 15 percent – primarily due to increased average sales realizations within our oriented strand board and structural lumber product lines. Additionally, upon completion of the sales of our former Cellulose Fibers businesses, chips previously sold to Cellulose Fibers are now sales to unaffiliated customers.

•

Timberlands sales to unaffiliated customers increased $97 million – 11 percent – primarily due to an increase in delivered log sales volumes in our Southern and Northern regions, as well as an increase in average sales realizations for delivered logs in our Western region. The increased delivered log sales volumes within the Southern and Northern regions is primarily related to the additional production on lands acquired in our merger with Plum Creek. In addition to the increased sales volumes, Timberlands net sales also increased due to increased recreational lease revenue. This was partially offset by a decrease in Southern and Northern region average sales realizations for delivered logs.


•	Real Estate & ENR sales to unaffiliated buyers increased $22 million – 29 percent – primarily due to increased net energy and natural resources sales attributable to the operations acquired in our merger with Plum Creek. Additionally, our net real estate sales have increased due to higher average price realized per acre.

Costs of products sold

Costs of products sold increased $234 million – 10 percent – primarily attributable to the following:


•	Wood Products segment costs of products sold increased $109 million primarily due to increased sales volumes in most product lines.

•

Intercompany eliminations of costs of products sold decreased $93 million, therefore increasing consolidated cost of products. This reduction in intercompany costs of products sold is primarily due to the completion of the sales of our former Cellulose Fibers businesses. Chips and logs previously sold to Cellulose Fibers are now sales to unaffiliated customers and therefore have related cost of products sold.


•	Timberlands segment costs of products sold increased $27 million , primarily due to the increase in sales volumes, as described above.

Operating income

Operating income increased $63 million – 16 percent – primarily attributable to the increased gross margin, as described above. This increase in gross margin was partially offset by the $147 million noncash impairment charge recognized in relation to the company agreeing to sell its Uruguayan operations as well as additional other operating costs associated with product remediation ($50 million) and countervailing/antidumping costs ($11 million). Refer to Note 15: Charges for Integration and Restructuring, Closures and Asset Impairments , Softwood Lumber Agreement , and Note 16: Other Operating Costs (Income), Net for further information on these respective topics.

Net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders

Our net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders decreased $46 million – 20 percent. Excluding 2016 "Earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax," net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders increased $12 million, primarily attributable to increased gross margins, as described above. These increases were partially offset by the non-recurring charges that occurred during second quarter 2017, as described above. Additionally, we have experienced an increase in "Non-operating pension and other postretirement benefit (costs) credits" and a reduction in "Equity earnings from joint ventures."

"Earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax," decreased $58 million as all discontinued operations were sold in 2016.

Includes logs, plywood and hardwood lumber harvested or produced by our international operations in Uruguay. On June 2, 2017, we agreed to sell all of our equity interest in the subsidiaries that collectively own and operate our Uruguayan timberlands and manufacturing business. The held for sale designation of the assets and liabilities of the Uruguayan business caused us to record a $147 million impairment within the Timberlands business segment during second quarter 2017. Refer to Note 2: Business Segments as well as Note 3: Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations for further information.

Comparing Second Quarter 2017 with Second Quarter 2016

Net sales – unaffiliated customers

Net sales to unaffiliated customers decreased $2 million – less than 1 percent – primarily due to:


•	a $6 million decrease in Southern log sales as a result of a 3 percent decrease in average sales realizations for delivered logs and a 1 percent decrease in delivered logs sales volumes.


•	a $5 million decrease in Western log sales, primarily attributable to a 9 percent decrease in delivered logs sales volumes. This decrease was partially offset by a 8 percent increase in average sales realizations for delivered logs. The increase in realizations is primarily due to the mix of delivered logs sold.


•	a $3 million decrease in Northern log sales, primarily attributable to a 13 percent decrease in delivered logs sales volumes and a 3 percent decrease in average sales realizations for delivered logs.

These decreases were partially offset by:


•	a $4 million increase in Other delivered logs, primarily attributable to increases in delivered logs sales volumes offset by decreases in average sales realizations.


•	an $8 million increase, primarily attributable to a $14 million increase in recreational lease revenue and other products revenue, offset by a $6 million decrease in stumpage and pay-as-cut revenue.

Intersegment sales

Intersegment sales decreased $30 million – 16 percent – due to a decrease in chip and log intersegment sales, which were previously sold to our Cellulose Fibers business segment.

Costs of products sold

Costs of products sold decreased $33 million – 6 percent – primarily due to a 3 percent decrease in sales volumes.

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings decreased $137 million – 110 percent – primarily attributable to the $147 million noncash pretax impairment charge recognized in relation to the Uruguayan sale agreement (refer to Note 3: Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations ). This was partially offset by a $9 million decrease in "General and administrative expenses."

Comparing Year-to-Date 2017 with Year-to-Date 2016

Net sales - unaffiliated customers

Net sales to unaffiliated customers increased $97 million – 11 percent – primarily due to:

•

a $41 million increase in Southern log sales, attributable to a 20 percent increase in delivered logs sales volumes offset by a 4 percent decrease in average sales realizations. The change in Southern log sales is primarily related to additional production from legacy Plum Creek operations. Results for year-to-date 2016 included only four months of legacy Plum Creek sales, as opposed to a full six months of operations included in year-to-date 2017.

•

an $ 11 million increase in Northern log sales, attributable to a 41 percent increase in delivered logs sales volumes offset by a 3 percent decrease in average sales realizations. The change in Northern log sales is primarily due to production in regions in which timberlands were acquired during the Plum Creek merger. Results for year-to-date 2016 included only four months of production from these timberlands, as opposed to a full six months of operations included in year-to-date 2017.


•	a $ 5 million increase in Western log sales, attributable to a 6 percent increase in average sales realizations on delivered logs, offset by a 4 percent decrease in delivered logs volumes. The increase in realizations is primarily due to the mix of delivered logs sold.


•	a $17 million increase in Other delivered logs, primarily attributable to increases in delivered logs sales volumes offset by decreases in average sales realizations on delivered logs.


•	a $23 million increase in other net sales, primarily attributable to a $15 million increase in recreational lease revenue and a $14 million increase in other products revenue, offset by a $9 million decrease in stumpage and pay-as-cut revenue.

Intersegment sales

Intersegment sales decreased $50 million – 12 percent – due to a decrease in chip and log intersegment sales, which were previously sold to our Cellulose Fibers business segment.

Costs of products sold

Costs of products sold increased $27 million – 3 percent – primarily due to the increase in sales volumes, as described above.

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings decreased $118 million – 46 percent – primarily attributable to the $147 million noncash pretax impairment charge recognized in relation to the Uruguayan sale agreement (refer to Note 3: Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations ). The impairment charge was partially offset by the changes in net sales and costs of products sold as explained above.

The timing of real estate sales is a function of many factors, including the general state of the economy, demand in local real estate markets, the ability to obtain entitlements, the ability of buyers to obtain financing, the number of competing properties listed for sale, the seasonal nature of sales (particularly in the northern states), the plans of adjacent landowners, our expectation of future price appreciation, the timing of harvesting activities, and the availability of government and not-for-profit funding (especially for conservation sales). In any period the average sales price per acre will vary based on the location and physical characteristics of parcels sold.

Comparing Second Quarter 2017 with Second Quarter 2016

Net sales - Unaffiliated buyers

Net sales to unaffiliated buyers increased $8 million – 21 percent – primarily attributable to a $7 million increase in net energy and natural resources sales.

Costs of products sold

Costs of products sold decreased $3 million – 16 percent – attributable to lower basis of real estate sold, which is attributable to the mix of properties sold.

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings for the quarter increased $11 million – 92 percent – primarily attributable to increased gross margin as explained above.

Comparing Year-to-Date 2017 with Year-to-Date 2016

Net sales - Unaffiliated buyers

Net sales to unaffiliated buyers increased $22 million – 29 percent – attributable to:


•	Net energy and natural resources sales increased $14 million – 67 percent – due primarily to increases in sales volumes attributable to the operations acquired in our merger with Plum Creek.


•	Net real estate sales increased $8 million – 14 percent – attributable to an increase in average price realized per acre due to mix of properties sold. This increase was partially offset by decreases in volume of acres sold.

Costs of products sold

Costs of products sold decreased $3 million – 8 percent – attributable to lower basis of real estate sold, which is attributable to the mix of properties sold. This decrease was partially offset by increased costs of products sold in Energy and natural resources, attributable to increased ENR sales volumes.

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings increased $22 million – 81 percent – primarily attributable to increased gross margin as explained above.

Comparing Second Quarter 2017 with Second Quarter 2016

Net sales

Net sales increased $147 million – 13 percent – primarily due to:


•	a $43 million increase in oriented strand board sales, attributable to a 23 percent increase in average sales realizations.


•	a $40 million increase in lumber sales, attributable to a 11 percent increase in average sales realizations, partially offset by a 2 percent decrease in sales volumes.


•	a $26 million increase in other products produced, primarily attributable to increased chip sales, which were previously sold to our former Cellulose Fibers segment and were intersegment sales during second quarter 2016. Upon completion of the sales of our former Cellulose Fibers businesses, chips previously sold to Cellulose Fibers are sales to unaffiliated customers.


•	a $15 million increase in engineered solid section, attributable to a 10 percent increase in sales volumes and a 3 percent increase in average sales realizations.


•	a $12 million increase in engineered I-joists, attributable to a 14 percent increase in sales volumes and a 3 percent increase in average sales realizations.

Costs of products sold

Costs of products sold increased $45 million – 5 percent – primarily due to increased sales volumes in several product lines, as explained above.

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings increased $21 million – 13 percent – primarily attributable to increased gross margin, as explained above. This increase is partially offset by increased Other operating costs, net related to retroactive and prospective countervailing and antidumping duties and product remediation costs. Refer to Softwood Lumber Agreement and Note 16: Other Operating Costs (Income), Net for further information on these respective topics.

Comparing Year-to-Date 2017 with Year-to-Date 2016

•	a $99 million increase in lumber sales, attributable to a 12 percent increase in average sales realizations, partially offset by a 1 percent decrease in sales volumes.


•	a $83 million increase in oriented strand board sales, attributable to a 23 percent increase in average sales realizations.


•	a $47 million increase in other products produced, primarily attributable to increased chip sales, which were previously sold to our former Cellulose Fibers segment and were intersegment sales during year-to-date 2016. Upon completion of the sales of our former Cellulose Fibers businesses, chips previously sold to Cellulose Fibers are sales to unaffiliated customers.


•	a $34 million increase in medium density fiberboard sales, attributable to a full year-to-date of legacy Plum Creek operations in 2017 versus a partial year-to-date in 2016 and a 7 percent increase in average sales realizations.

Costs of products sold

Costs of products sold increased $109 million – 6 percent – primarily due to increased sales volumes in most product lines, as explained above.

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings

Operating income and Net contribution to earnings increased $106 million – 44 percent – primarily attributable to increased gross margin, as explained above.

UNALLOCATED ITEMS

Unallocated items are gains or charges from continuing operations not related or allocated to an individual operating segment. They include a portion of items such as: share-based compensation, pension and postretirement costs, foreign exchange transaction gains and losses associated with financing, the elimination of intersegment profit in inventory and the LIFO reserve. As a result of reclassifying our former Cellulose Fibers segment as discontinued operations, unallocated items also includes retained indirect corporate overhead costs previously allocated to the former segment.

(1)	The quarter and year-to-date period ended 2016 includes equity earnings from our Timberland Venture, which effective August 31, 2016, is consolidated as a wholly-owned subsidiary.

(2)

During first quarter 2017 we adopted ASU 2017-07, which requires us to show components of pension and other postretirement benefit costs (interest, expected return on plan assets, amortization of actuarial gains or losses, and amortization of prior service credits or costs) on the Consolidated Statement of Operations as a line item outside of operating income. We reclassified these components for all periods shown above. Refer to Note 1: Basis of Presentation for further details.

Comparing Second Quarter 2017 with Second Quarter 2016

Changes in Unallocated Items were primarily related to:


•	charges related to our merger with Plum Creek decreased $6 million . Refer to Note 15: Charges for Integration and Restructuring, Closures and Asset Impairments .


•	an $18 million increase in expense related to "Non-operating pension and other postretirement benefit (costs) credits" due to a decrease in the expected return on our plan assets and an increase in the amortization of actuarial losses.

Comparing Year-to-Date 2017 with Year-to-Date 2016

Changes in Unallocated Items were primarily related to:


•	charges related to our merger with Plum Creek decreased $104 million . Refer to Note 15: Charges for Integration and Restructuring, Closures and Asset Impairments .


•	an increase in expense related to "Non-operating pension and other postretirement benefit (costs) credits" due to a decrease in the expected return on our plan assets and an increase in the amortization of actuarial losses – $54 million .


•	a pretax gain recognized in first quarter 2016 related to the sale of our Federal Way, Washington headquarters campus, which is recorded in "Other operating costs (income), net" in our Consolidated Statement of Operations – $36 million.


•	a change from a gain year-to-date 2016 to a loss year-to-date 2017 on foreign exchange primarily related to debt held by our Canadian entity – $17 million .


•	a decrease in equity earnings from our joint venture – $12 million . As of August 31, 2016, the Timberland Venture became a fully consolidated, wholly owned subsidiary and therefore eliminated our equity method investment at that time. Refer to Note 17: Income Taxes for further information.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Our interest expense, net of capitalized interest incurred was:


•	$100 million for the second quarter 2017 and $199 million for year-to-date 2017 ; and


•	$114 million for the second quarter 2016 and $209 million for year-to-date 2016 .

Interest expense decreased $14 million compared to second quarter 2016 and $10 million compared to year-to-date 2016 primarily due to the decreased average outstanding debt in 2017 versus 2016. During first quarter 2016, we entered into two term loans totaling $2.5 billion, both of which were paid in full and terminated in fourth quarter 2016. As such, only the results for 2016 included interest incurred on these loans.

INCOME TAXES

Our provision for income taxes for our continuing operations was:


•	$34 million for the second quarter 2017 and $58 million year-to-date 2017 ; and


•	$31 million for the second quarter 2016 and $42 million year-to-date 2016 .

Our provision for income taxes is primarily driven by earnings generated by our taxable REIT subsidiaries. Overall performance results for our business segments can be found in Consolidated Results .

Refer to Note 17: Income Taxes for additional information.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We are committed to maintaining an appropriate capital structure that enables us to:


•	protect the interests of our shareholders and lenders; and


•	maintain access to all major financial markets.

CASH FROM OPERATIONS

Consolidated net cash provided by our operations was:


•	$524 million for year-to-date 2017 ; and


•	$539 million for year-to-date 2016 .

Comparing Year-to-Date 2017 with Year-to-Date 2016

Net cash provided by our operations decreased $15 million , primarily due to:


•	decreased operating cash flows from discontinued operations of $134 million and


•	an increase in cash paid for income taxes of $131 million .

These decreases were partially offset by increased cash flows from our business segments of $238 million . See Performance Measures for our Adjusted EBITDA by segment.

CASH FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Consolidated net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was:


•	( $106 million ) for year-to-date 2017 ; and


•	$374 million for year-to-date 2016 .

Comparing Year-to-Date 2017 with Year-to-Date 2016

Net cash from investing activities decreased $480 million , primarily due to the following non-recurring cash inflows that occurred in 2016:


•	$440 million of proceeds from contribution of timberlands to the Twin Creeks Venture; and


•	$70 million of proceeds from the sale of our Federal Way, Washington headquarters campus.

These decreases were partially offset by a $12 million decrease in capital expenditures.

Summary of Capital Spending by Business Segment



	YEAR-TO-DATE ENDED
DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS	JUNE 2017		JUNE 2016
Timberlands	$	55	$	51
Real Estate & ENR	1		1
Wood Products	105		81
Unallocated Items	1		7
Discontinued operations	—		34
Total	$	162	$	174

We expect our net capital expenditures for 2017 to be $435 million , which is comparable to 2016 capital spending for continuing operations. The amount we spend on capital expenditures could change due to:


•	capital allocation priorities,


•	future economic conditions,


•	environmental regulations,


•	changes in the composition of our business,


•	weather and


•	timing of equipment purchases.

CASH FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Consolidated net cash used in financing activities was:


•	$393 million for year-to-date 2017 ; and


•	$1,433 million for year-to-date 2016 .

Comparing Year-to-Date 2017 with Year-to-Date 2016

Net cash used in financing activities decreased $1,040 million primarily due to the following:


•	a $1.6 billion decrease in cash paid to repurchase common shares;


•	repayment of Plum Creek's line of credit and term loan outstanding at the merger date in 2016 in the amount of $720 million ; and


•	an $11 million decrease in cash dividends paid on preference shares.

These were offset by $1.4 billion of cash proceeds from term loan credit facility borrowings subsequent to the merger date during first quarter 2016 and an increase of $69 million in cash proceeds from exercise of stock options.

Lines of Credit

During March 2017, we entered into a new $1.5 billion five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility that expires in March 2022 . This replaces a $1 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility that was set to expire September 2018 . Refer to Note 10: Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit for further information.

Debt Covenants

As of June 30, 2017 , Weyerhaeuser Company was in compliance with its debt covenants. There have been no significant changes during second quarter 2017 to the debt covenants presented in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K for our existing long-term debt instruments.

Term Loan Prepayment and Replacement

Subsequent to our quarter ended June 30, 2017, but prior to the issuance of these financial statements, we have prepaid a $550 million variable-rate term loan originally set to mature in 2020 (2020 term loan). The 2020 term loan was prepaid using available cash as well as borrowing proceeds from a new $225 million variable-rate term loan set to mature in 2026 (2026 term loan). Due to the use of available cash to settle a portion of the 2020 term loan, we have reclassified the related portion ( $325 million ) of the 2020 term loan outstanding at June 30, 2017, from "Long-term debt" to "Current maturities of long-term debt" on our current period Consolidated Balance Sheet . For more information about the new term loan, see Other Information .

Option Exercises

We received cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options of:


•	$81 million in 2017 ; and


•	$12 million in 2016 .

Our average stock price was $33.10 and $28.78 for year-to-date 2017 and 2016 , respectively.

Paying Dividends and Repurchasing Stock

We paid cash dividends on common shares of:


•	$466 million in 2017 ; and


•	$469 million in 2016 .

The decrease in dividends paid is due to decreased common shares outstanding at the dividend record dates.

The 2016 Share Repurchase Authorization was approved in November 2015 by our Board of Directors and authorized management to repurchase up to $2.5 billion of outstanding shares. During second quarter 2017 , we did not repurchase any shares. As of June 30, 2017 , we had remaining authorization of $500 million for future stock repurchases.

We record share repurchases upon trade date as opposed to the settlement date when cash is disbursed. We record a liability to account for repurchases that have not been cash settled. There were no unsettled repurchases as of June 30, 2017 .

PERFORMANCE MEASURES

We use Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) as a key performance measure to evaluate the performance of the consolidated company and our business segments. This measure should not be considered in isolation from and is not intended to represent an alternative to our results reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). However, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful supplemental information for investors about our operating performance, better facilitates period to period comparisons, and is widely used by analysts, lenders, rating agencies and other interested parties.

Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, as we define it, is operating income from continuing operations adjusted for depreciation, depletion, amortization, basis of real estate sold, unallocated pension service costs and special items. Adjusted EBITDA excludes results from joint ventures.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no significant changes during second quarter 2017 to our critical accounting policies presented in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

LONG-TERM INDEBTEDNESS OBLIGATIONS

The following summary of our long-term indebtedness obligations includes:


•	scheduled principal repayments for the next five years and after;


•	weighted average interest rates for debt maturing in each of the next five years and after; and


•	estimated fair values of outstanding obligations.

We estimate the fair value of our debt instruments using quoted market prices we received for the same types and issues of our debt or on the discounted value of the future cash flows using market yields for the same type and comparable issues of debt. Changes in market rates of interest affect the fair value of our fixed-rate debt.

However, as noted in Note 10: Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit , a portion of the $550 million has been reclassified to "Current maturities of long-term debt" as of June 30, 2017 due to prepayment of this term loan in July 2017.

OTHER INFORMATION

The disclosure set forth below is provided pursuant to Items 1.01 and 2.03 of Form 8-K.

Term Loan Agreement

On July 24, 2017, Weyerhaeuser Company (Company or Weyerhaeuser) entered into a Term Loan Agreement (New Term Loan Agreement) with Northwest Farm Credit Services, PCA, as Administrative Agent, and the lenders party thereto, which provides for a $225 million senior unsecured term loan that will mature in July 2026. Along with cash on hand of the Company, the funds borrowed under the New Term Loan Agreement were used to prepay the Company’s existing $550 million term loan under the credit agreement dated as of September 13, 2013, by and among Weyerhaeuser, CoBank, ACB, as Administrative Agent, and the lenders party thereto (2013 Term Credit Agreement). The borrowing under the New Term Loan Agreement will bear interest, at Weyerhaeuser’s option, at a floating rate based on LIBOR or a Base Rate (as defined in the New Term Loan Agreement) plus a spread that will vary depending upon the credit rating assigned to Weyerhaeuser’s long-term senior unsecured debt from time to time.

Weyerhaeuser Covenants

Under the New Term Loan Agreement, key covenants relating to Weyerhaeuser include requirements to maintain:


•	a minimum defined total adjusted shareholders' equity of $3.0 billion, and


•	a funded debt ratio (defined total funded indebtedness divided by defined total adjusted shareholders' equity plus defined total funded indebtedness) of not more than 65%.

The New Term Loan Agreement contains other covenants customary for a borrower with Weyerhaeuser’s credit rating. These include covenants that place limitations on Weyerhaeuser’s ability to incur secured debt, enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets or fundamentally change its business.

Amendment to Installment Note

Reference is made to that certain Assumption and Amendment Agreement dated as of April 28, 2016, by and among Plum Creek Timberlands, L.P., Weyerhaeuser and MeadWestvaco Timber Note Holding Company II, L.L.C., including the Amended and Restated Installment Note dated December 16, 2013, as amended as of April 28, 2016, that is attached as Annex A thereto (Installment Note). Pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 3.01 of Appendix A to the Installment Note, the affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the 2013 Term Credit Agreement or, as applicable, any Replacement Credit Agreement (as defined in the Installment Note) are incorporated by reference into the Installment Note. The New Term Loan Agreement is a Replacement Credit Agreement; therefore, effective upon the execution of the New Term Loan Agreement, the affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the New Term Loan Agreement replaced such provisions from the 2013 Term Credit Agreement and became incorporated by reference into the Installment Note.

Claim Agreement

In connection with the New Term Loan Agreement, Weyerhaeuser NR Company (WNR), a wholly owned subsidiary of Weyerhaeuser, and Weyerhaeuser entered into a claim agreement pursuant to which the lenders under the New Term Loan Agreement will have claims enforceable against WNR for payment of obligations under the New Term Loan Agreement to the same extent that holders of certain debt securities issued by Weyerhaeuser have successfully asserted claims, if any, enforceable against WNR for the payment of such debt securities by reason of any assumption agreement entered into between WNR and Weyerhaeuser pursuant to which WNR assumed the performance of payment obligations of Weyerhaeuser in respect of such debt securities.

The foregoing description of the New Term Loan Agreement and the related matters, including the effect of the New Term Loan Agreement on the Installment Note, is a general description only, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the New Term Loan Agreement and the Installment Note, which are filed with this quarterly report as Exhibit 10.1 and 4.1, respectively and are incorporated into this quarterly report by reference. The New Term Loan Agreement contains representations and warranties that Weyerhaeuser made to the lenders that are party to the New Term Loan Agreement as of a specific date. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made solely for purposes of the contractual agreements between the parties to the New Term Loan Agreement and may be subject to important qualifications and limitations to which the parties agreed in connection with negotiating the New Term Loan Agreement. Moreover, some of those representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to investors, or may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as fact. For the foregoing reasons, investors should not rely on the representations and warranties contained in the New Term Loan Agreement as statements or representations of factual information.

Certain of the lenders and their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various commercial banking and general financing services for the Company for which they received or will receive customary fees and reimbursement for related expenses.

(a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make its Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

(b) Subject to Section 2.13, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that (i) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) any such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender shall not be entitled to any greater indemnification under Section 2.14 or 2.16 with respect to such Loan than that to which the applicable Lender (acting through its domestic branch) was entitled on the date on which such Loan was made (or, to the extent provided in such Section, would have been entitled as a result of a Change in Law after the date on which such Loan was made).

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000; provided that a Eurodollar Borrowing that results from a continuation of an outstanding Eurodollar Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to such outstanding Borrowing. At the time that each Base Rate Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of five (or such greater number as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent) Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert to or continue, any Eurodollar Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

Section 2.03 Requests for Borrowings . To request a Borrowing on the Effective Date, the Borrower shall give notice (which notice may be given by telephone, to be confirmed in writing as set forth below) to the Administrative Agent (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 p.m., Pacific time, three Business Days before the Effective Date or (b) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., Pacific time, on the Effective Date. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be made (or, in the case of any telephonic Borrowing Request, shall be confirmed promptly) by hand delivery, facsimile or electronic transmission of a “pdf” or similar copy to the Administrative Agent of an executed written Borrowing Request. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing;

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be the Effective Date;

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;

(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and

(v) the location and number of the account to which funds are to be disbursed.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be (i) in the case of a Borrowing Request delivered by the time referred to in clause (a) above, a Eurodollar Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration and (ii) otherwise, a Base Rate Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

Section 2.04 [Reserved] .

Section 2.06 Funding of Borrowings .

(a) Each Lender shall make (i) each Eurodollar Loan to be made by it hereunder on the Effective Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 9:00 a.m., Pacific time, and (ii) each Base Rate Loan to be made by it hereunder on the Effective Date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., Pacific time (or, if earlier, two hours after the time of delivery to the Administrative Agent of the applicable Borrowing Request), in each case to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make Loans available to the Borrower by remitting the amounts so received, in like funds, promptly (and, in any event, by (i) 9:30 a.m., Pacific time, in the case of Eurodollar Loans and (ii) 1:30 p.m., Pacific time, in the case of Base Rate Loans) to the account specified by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance on such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the

Section 2.07 Interest Elections .

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or as otherwise provided in Section 2.03. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall give notice (which notice may be given by telephone, to be confirmed in writing as set forth below) to the Administrative Agent of such election by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be made (or, in the case of any telephonic Interest Election Request, shall be confirmed promptly) by hand delivery, facsimile or electronic transmission of a “pdf” or similar copy to the Administrative Agent of an executed written Interest Election Request. Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(c) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(d) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default under clause (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Borrower, or if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, has notified the Borrower of the election to give effect to this sentence on account of such other Event of Default, then, in each such case, so long as such Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

(b) The records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of the Loans, interest and fees due or accrued hereunder; provided that in the event of any inconsistency between the records maintained by the Administrative Agent and any Lender, the records maintained by the Administrative Agent shall control; provided further that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay any amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or to such payee and its registered assigns).

Section 2.10 Prepayment of Loans .

Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and the principal amount of each such Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that a notice of prepayment of any Borrowing pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02.

(d) Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in such Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount prepaid and, subject to Section 2.15, shall be without premium or penalty.

any other such amount, 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

(e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and on the Maturity Date; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of a Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Base Rate at times when the Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Base Rate or LIBOR shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.13 Alternate Rate of Interest . If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice (which may be telephonic, by facsimile or by electronic transmission of a “pdf” or similar copy) thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (a) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be continued as a Base Rate Borrowing, and (b) any Borrowing Request for a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be treated as a request for a Base Rate Borrowing.

Section 2.14 Increased Costs . (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender;

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender; or

Lender or other Recipient to be material, then, from time to time upon request of such Lender or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs or expenses incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has had or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Loan made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then, from time to time upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) If, and for so long as, any Lender shall be required pursuant to the requirements of the Board of Governors to maintain reserves with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency liabilities” in Regulation D of the Board of Governors), then, from time to time upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender additional interest on the applicable Eurodollar Loans of such Lender at a rate per annum determined by such Lender up to but not exceeding the excess of (i) (A) the applicable LIBOR divided by (B) one minus the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage over (ii) the applicable LIBOR.

(d) A certificate of a Lender or other Recipient setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or other Recipient or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

(e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or other Recipient to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or other Recipient’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or other Recipient pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or expenses incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law or other event giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions and of such Lender’s or other Recipient’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section to the contrary, no Lender or other Recipient shall request, or be entitled to receive, any compensation pursuant to this Section unless (i) it shall be the general policy or practice of such Lender or other Recipient to seek compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements, if any, and (ii) such compensation would not be duplicative of any increase in LIBOR pursuant to Section 2.14(g).

(g) On the third and sixth anniversaries of the Effective Date (or on such other date approximately preceding any such anniversary as the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may agree) (each such date, a “ Reset Reference Point ”), the Administrative Agent (i) shall determine the difference (in basis points), if any, between the Current Cost of Funds (as defined below) as of such Reset Reference Point and the Effective Date Cost of Funds (as defined below) and (ii) thereafter shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrower of such difference by delivering a certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit F (or in such other form as is mutually acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower). LIBOR (as otherwise determined in accordance with the definition thereof) for any Interest Period shall be increased or decreased, as applicable, by the amount of such difference (in a like amount of basis points), which increase or decrease shall commence from and as of such Reset Reference Point and shall remain in effect until the next Reset Reference Point; provided that in no event shall LIBOR for any Interest Period be reduced below zero. As used in this Section 2.14(g):

“ Current Cost of Funds ” means, as of any Reset Reference Point, the amount (in basis points and which amount shall be set forth as a negative number if the amount in the following clause (x) is less than the amount in the following clause (y)), if any, by which (x) the LIBOR Floating Note Rate differs from (y) LIBOR for an Interest Period of one month, in each case determined as of the date that is two Business Days prior to such Reset Reference Point.

“ Effective Date Cost of Funds ” means, as of the Effective Date, one basis point, which is the amount by which (x) the LIBOR Floating Note Rate differs from (y) LIBOR for an Interest Period of one month, in each case determined as of the date that is two Business Days prior to the Effective Date.

“ LIBOR Floating Note Rate ” means, as of any date of determination, the estimated funding cost (not the actual sale price), including standard underwriting fees, for new three-year debt securities indexed to the one-month LIBOR Screen Rate issued by the Farm Credit Funding Corporation into the primary market based on market observations on such date indicated at approximately 9:30 a.m., Eastern time; it being understood that such indications represent the Farm Credit Funding Corporation’s best estimate of the cost of new debt issuances based on a combination of daily surveys of selected farm credit selling group members (participating bond dealers) and ongoing monitoring of the fixed income markets for actual, recent, primary market issuance by other government-sponsored of similar bonds and notes and pricing within related derivative markets, particularly the interest rate swap market. Historical information on such funding costs is available, for the prior week, on the Farm Credit Funding Corporation’s website (farmcreditfunding.com/ffcb_live/fundingCostIndex.htm l ) under the “Output” tab of the most recent spreadsheet.

By way of example, assuming the Effective Date Cost of Funds is 15 basis points, (a) if the Current Cost of Funds as of a Reset Reference Point is 35 basis points, then LIBOR for any Interest Period shall be increased by 20 basis points commencing from and as of such Reset Reference Point, and (b) if the Current Cost of Funds as of a Reset Reference Point is -5 basis points (i.e., the LIBOR Floating Note Rate is 5 basis points less than LIBOR for an Interest Period of one month, in each case as of such Reset Reference Point), then LIBOR shall be decreased (but not below zero) by 20 basis points commencing from and as of such Reset Reference Point.

Section 2.15 Break Funding Payments . In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert or continue any Eurodollar Loan on the date

specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (other than any notice deemed ineffective as contemplated under Section 2.13 and other than any failure to borrow as a result of a failure to make a Loan by any Lender as required hereunder), (d) the failure to prepay any Eurodollar Loan on a date specified therefor in any notice of prepayment given by the Borrower (whether or not such notice may be revoked in accordance with the terms hereof) or (e) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18(b) (other than in reliance on clause (iii) thereof), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event in accordance with this Section. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to consist of an amount reasonably determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at LIBOR (determined without regard to any floor set forth in the definition thereof) that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate such Lender would bid if it were to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the London interbank market. In no event shall such loss, cost or expense include the loss of anticipated profits or loss of any interest rate floor or any administrative, processing or similar fees. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section (which shall set forth the basis for requesting and the method of calculating such compensation) shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any loss, cost or expense shown on such certificate incurred or suffered more than 30 days prior to the date that such Lender delivers such certificate to the Borrower.

Section 2.16 Taxes .

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Evidence of Payment. Upon request by the Administrative Agent, as soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return

reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, upon written request therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability shall be delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Recipient the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof. If any Recipient becomes entitled to a refund of Indemnified Taxes for which such Recipient has received payment from the Borrower hereunder, such Recipient shall, at the expense of the Borrower, use its reasonable efforts (consistent with internal policy, and legal and regulatory restrictions) to obtain such refund. If any Recipient receives a refund or is entitled to claim a tax credit in respect of any Indemnified Taxes for which such Recipient has received payment from the Borrower hereunder, such Recipient shall promptly notify the Borrower of such refund or credit and shall, within 30 days after receipt of a request by the Borrower (or promptly upon receipt, if the Borrower has requested application for such refund or credit pursuant hereto), repay such refund or amount of credit to the Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Recipient and without interest; provided that the Borrower, upon the request of such Recipient, agrees to return such refund or amount of credit (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to such Recipient in the event such Recipient is required to repay such refund or such credit is denied or subsequently determined to be unavailable.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall, within 10 days after demand therefor, severally indemnify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c)(ii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower in good faith, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that, in the case of the Borrower, such indemnification shall not apply to Indemnified Taxes. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e). The agreements in this paragraph (e) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations hereunder.

Section 2.17 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs .

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 p.m., Pacific time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without any defense, setoff, recoupment or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account as may be specified by the Administrative Agent, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first , towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto, and (ii) second , towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on its Loan resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loan and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the amount of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amounts of principal of and accrued interest on their Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and

in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, as in effect from time to time), including pursuant to Sections 2.18(b) or 2.19, or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in its Loan to any Person that is an Eligible Assignee (as such term is defined from time to time) and (iii) the provisions of this paragraph shall be subject to Section 5.11(c). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder to or for the account of the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations in respect of such payment until all such unsatisfied obligations have been discharged or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender pursuant to Sections 2.06(b), 2.16(e), 2.17(d) and 9.03(c), in each case in such order as shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

Section 2.18 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders .

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation.

(b) If (i) any Lender (or any Participant in respect of any Lender) requests compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender (or any Participant in respect of any Lender) or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender (or any Participant in respect of any Lender) pursuant to Section 2.16, (iii) any Lender has become a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed

amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that under Section 9.02 requires the consent of all the Lenders (or all the affected Lenders) and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate the Commitment of such Lender and prepay outstanding Loan of such Lender in full, in each case without any obligation to terminate any Commitment, or prepay any Loan, of any other Lender (other than solely pursuant to Section 2.10(b)), or (B) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04, but with the processing and recordation fee being waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that, in the case of any such assignment and delegation under clause (B) above, (1) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent with respect to such Eligible Assignee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, (2) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loan, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee and/or the Borrower, (3) in the case of any such assignment and delegation relating to a request for compensation under Section 2.14, such assignment and delegation will result in a reduction in such compensation and (4) such assignment and delegation does not conflict with applicable law. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation, or to have its Commitment and Loan so terminated or repaid, if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver or consent by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation, or to cause such termination or repayment, have ceased to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment and delegation required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not be a party thereto.

Section 2.19 Defaulting Lenders . Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Commitment and the Loan of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02, require the consent of such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof. In the event that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then on such date such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

The Farm Credit Equities in any Farm Credit Lender (or its designated Affiliate) shall not constitute security for the obligations arising under the Loan Documents due to any other Lender. To the extent that any of the Loan Documents create a Lien on the Farm Credit Equities in any Farm Credit Lender (or its designated Affiliate) or on patronage accrued by such Farm Credit Lender for the account of the Borrower (including, in each case, proceeds thereof), such Lien shall be for such Farm Credit Lender’s sole and exclusive benefit and shall not be subject to pro rata sharing hereunder. Neither the Farm Credit Equities nor any accrued patronage shall be offset against the obligations arising under the Loan Documents except that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, a Farm Credit Lender may elect, solely at its discretion, to set off and apply the cash portion of any patronage distribution or retirement of Farm Credit Equities against any obligation of the Borrower owed to such Lender under this Agreement, whether or not such obligation is then due and payable. The Borrower acknowledges that any corresponding tax liability associated with such application is the sole responsibility of the Borrower. No Farm Credit Lender shall have an obligation to retire the Farm Credit Equities in such Farm Credit Lender (or its designated Affiliate) upon any Default or Event of Default, or at any other time, either for application to the obligations arising under the Loan Documents or otherwise.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties), (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary power, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent exercise (including in connection with any transaction contemplated by Section 6.03) or that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall

not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could be contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law or may expose it to liability, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower, that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents), which consent or request, as applicable, shall be binding upon all Lenders, or in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment). The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of default” and stating the nature of the Default) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the due execution, legality, sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness or value of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the signatory, sender or authenticator thereof). The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the signatory, sender or authenticator thereof), and may act upon any such statement prior to receipt of written confirmation thereof. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent may perform any of and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of and all their duties and exercise their rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facility provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent. No Agent shall be

responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

Subject to this paragraph and Section 9.18, the Administrative Agent may resign from its capacity as such. In connection with such resignation, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of its intent to resign to the Borrower and the Lenders. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to Section 9.18 and the consent of the Borrower (other than during the existence of an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII), which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, to appoint a successor, which shall be a Farm Credit Lender or a bank (or an Affiliate of a Farm Credit Lender or a bank). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor, subject to Section 9.18 and the consent of the Borrower (other than during the existence of an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII), which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and such successor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the other Agents, the Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, without any other further act or deed on the part of such retiring Administrative Agent or any other Person, and (b) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (i) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (ii) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall also directly be given or made to each Lender. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub‑agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and funding its Loans on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither any Arranger nor any Person named on the cover page of this Agreement as a Syndication Agent or a Documentation Agent shall have any duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender), but all such Persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.

The provisions of this Article (other than provisions of this Article providing the Borrower with a consent right, all of which shall also be for the benefit of the Borrower) are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions.

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain MNPI) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal, State and foreign securities laws; and

(E) the assignee, if it shall be a Farm Credit Lender but not then a Lender, shall deliver to the Borrower documents from such assignee that describe the nature of the Farm Credit Equities in such assignee (or its designated Affiliate) required to be acquired by the Borrower in such assignee pursuant to Section 5.11, as well as applicable capitalization requirements.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and records of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “ Register ”).

Assumption lacks any written consent required by this Section, provides for an assignment and delegation to a Defaulting Lender or is otherwise not in proper form, it being acknowledged that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation (and shall incur no liability) with respect to obtaining (or confirming the receipt) of any such written consent or with respect to the form of (or any defect in) such Assignment and Assumption, any such duty and obligation being solely with the assigning Lender and the assignee. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Each assigning Lender and the assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the Administrative Agent that all written consents required by this Section with respect thereto (other than the consent of the Administrative Agent) have been obtained and that such Assignment and Assumption is otherwise duly completed and in proper form, and each assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee. Any assignment by a Lender pursuant to this Section shall not in any way constitute a novation, discharge, rescission, extinguishment or substitution of any Indebtedness or other obligation so assigned, and any Indebtedness or other obligation so assigned shall continue to be the same Indebtedness or other obligation and not a new Indebtedness or other obligation.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) but without the consent of the Administrative Agent (except as set forth in paragraph (c)(iii) of this Section), sell participations to one or more Persons (other than the Borrower, any Subsidiary, a Defaulting Lender or a natural person) (“ Participants ”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and Loan); provided that (A) no consent of the Borrower shall be required (1) in case of a Lender that is a Farm Credit Lender, for a participation by such Lender to any of its Affiliates that is also a Farm Credit Lender, (2) in case of a Lender that is not (and is not an Affiliate of) a Farm Credit Lender, for any participation, (3) if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, for any other participation, or (4) for any participation to a Farm Credit Lender set forth on Schedule 9.04, it being understood and agreed that the Borrower shall be deemed to act reasonably in withholding consent to (x) a participation that it expects will result in a reduction in patronage distributions to the Borrower, except (other than in connection with a participation to an Affiliate) if in connection with such participation the selling Lender shall have delivered to the Borrower a Farm Credit Lender Transfer Certificate, or (y) a participation that would result in this Agreement no longer constituting a “Replacement Credit Agreement” under (and as defined in) the Installment Note, (B) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (C) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (D) subject to Section 9.04(c)(iii), the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall, subject to Section 9.04(c)(iii), provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that (x) such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or modification of this Agreement that requires the consent of each directly affected Lender pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) and directly adversely affects such

Participant and (y) no other agreement with respect to any amendment, waiver or modification of this Agreement may exist between such Lender and such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.16(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.16(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (x) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.17 and 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (y) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.18(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the “ Participant Register ”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as such) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.04 to the contrary, any Farm Credit Lender that (A) (1) has purchased a participation in the minimum amount of $10,000,000 on or after the Effective Date, (2) is, by written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (“ Voting Participant Notification ”), designated by the selling Lender as being entitled to be accorded the rights of a Voting Participant hereunder, (3) receives the prior written consent of the Borrower (to the extent such consent is required for the sale of the participation pursuant to Section 9.04(c)(i)) to become a Voting Participant and (4) receives the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to become a Voting Participant or (B) is set forth as a Voting Participant on Schedule 9.04, shall be entitled to vote (and the voting rights of the selling Lender shall be correspondingly reduced), on a dollar for dollar basis, as if such Participant were a Lender, on any matter requiring or allowing a Lender to provide or withhold its consent, or to otherwise vote on any proposed action (any Farm Credit Lender so entitled to vote being called a “ Voting Participant ”). To be effective, each Voting Participant Notification shall, with respect to any Voting Participant, (x) state the full name, as well as all contact information required of an assignee as set forth in Exhibit A hereto and (y) state

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other reserve bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 9.05 Survival .

Section 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness . This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.

Except as provided in Article IV, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of all the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.07 Severability . Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

The rights of each Lender, and each Affiliate of any of the foregoing, under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or Affiliate may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

RECITALS

A. WNR is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. WNR has agreed, as between the Company and WNR, to assume the payment obligations in respect of certain indebtedness of the Company pursuant to that certain Assumption Agreement dated as of January 1, 2009 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ First Assumption Agreement ”), made by WNR in favor of the Company, and that certain Assignment and Assumption Agreement dated as of October 1, 2009 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ Second Assumption Agreement ” and, together with the First Assumption Agreement and any Additional Assumption Agreement (as defined below), collectively, the “ Assumption Agreements ”), by and between WNR and the Company.

B. It is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Lenders to make their respective extensions of credit to the Company under the Credit Agreement that WNR enter into this Agreement with the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Agreement Parties (as defined below).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, WNR hereby agrees with the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Agreement Parties, as follows:

SECTION 1. Definitions.

(a) Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

(b) The following terms shall have the following meanings:

“ Assumed Debt ” means any indebtedness of the Company the payment obligations in respect of which shall have been assumed by WNR pursuant to one or more Assumption Agreements.

“ Assumed Debt Agreement ” means any indenture, credit agreement, note purchase agreement or other agreement, if any, pursuant to which the Company has incurred or will incur Assumed Debt and any note, instrument, agreement or other document evidencing or governing such Assumed Debt.

“ Assumed Debt Party ” means any Person to which Assumed Debt is owed and any trustee for, or other representative of, the holders of such Assumed Debt under any Assumed Debt Agreement.

“ Credit Agreement Claims ” has the meaning specified in Section 2(a) hereof.

“ Credit Agreement Obligations ” means the due and punctual payment by the Company of (a) the principal of and interest (including interest accruing during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding) on the Loans made to the Company, when and as due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, upon one or more dates set for prepayment or otherwise and (b) all other monetary obligations of the Company to any of the Credit Agreement Parties under the Credit Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including obligations to pay fees, expense reimbursement obligations and indemnification obligations, whether primary, secondary, direct, contingent, fixed or otherwise (including monetary obligations incurred during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding).

“ Pro Rata Claim Amount ” at any time means, in respect of the Credit Agreement Claim of any Credit Agreement Party, an amount equal to (a) the Credit Agreement Obligations owing to such Credit Agreement Party at such time, multiplied by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of Assumed Debt (including accrued and unpaid interest and any related obligations in respect of premiums, fees and indemnities) owing at such time in respect of which Assumed Debt Claims exist and the denominator of which is the total amount of Assumed Debt (including accrued and unpaid interest and any related obligations in respect of premiums, fees and indemnities) owing at such time.

SECTION 2. Credit Agreement Claims.

(a) WNR hereby agrees with the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Agreement Parties, that the Credit Agreement Parties shall have rights and claims enforceable against WNR for payment of all or a portion of the Credit Agreement Obligations to the same extent that the Assumed Debt Parties (as opposed to the Company) have rights and claims, if any, enforceable against WNR for payment of all or any portion of the Assumed Debt (including accrued and unpaid interest and any related obligations in respect of premiums, fees and indemnities) pursuant to or by reason of any Assumption Agreement (such rights and claims of the Assumed Debt Parties, the “ Assumed Debt Claims ”), as if WNR and the Company had entered into an assumption agreement in respect of the Credit Agreement Obligations on the same terms as such Assumption Agreement that is the subject of the Assumed Debt Claims (such rights and claims of the Credit Agreement Parties, the “ Credit Agreement Claims ”). It is understood and agreed that (i) if the Credit Agreement Parties have Credit Agreement Claims by reason of one or more, whether in whole or in part, but less than all, of the Assumed Debt being subject to Assumed Debt Claims, then the Credit Agreement Claims of any Credit Agreement Party shall be limited to its Pro Rata Claim Amount, and (ii) WNR shall be fully liable for any such Credit Agreement Claims subject only to the limitations expressly set forth in this Agreement. Any Credit Agreement Claims due and owing by WNR hereunder shall be payable by WNR to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Credit Agreement Parties.

(b) The determination of whether any Assumed Debt Claim exists shall be based solely upon the successful assertion by the applicable Assumed Debt Parties of such Assumed Debt Claim, and the Credit Agreement Parties shall not be permitted to assert that an Assumed Debt Claim exists unless and until such

CHAR1\1536846v3

CHAR1\1539728v3

* For voting purposes only. Percentages are approximate due to rounding.

*** After giving effect to the Effective Date assignment and the Effective Date participations.

Assumed Debt Claim is successfully asserted by the applicable Assumed Debt Parties; provided that, if any Assumed Debt Party asserts an Assumed Debt Claim, the foregoing shall not be construed to prevent the assertion that a Credit Agreement Claim exists if such assertion of an Assumed Debt Claim is successful.

For purposes of this Section 2(b), an Assumed Debt Claim shall be considered “successfully asserted” or shall be viewed as the subject to “successful assertion” upon the occurrence of any of the following:

(i) an express agreement, stipulation, settlement or acknowledgment by WNR that (A) acknowledges liability of WNR directly to any Assumed Debt Party in respect of such Assumed Debt Claim or (B) provides consideration from WNR to any Assumed Debt Party as a result of such Assumed Debt Claim or in exchange for an agreement, stipulation, settlement or acknowledgment that such Assumed Debt Party has no, or will not assert any, Assumed Debt Claims;

(ii) at any time after the commitments under the Credit Agreement shall have terminated as a result of the occurrence of an event of default thereunder and the Credit Agreement Obligations shall have become due and payable, any subsequent action that has the effect of treating such Assumed Debt Claim in a manner, or results in a recovery to the holders of such Assumed Debt Claim in respect of their Assumed Debt Claim, in each case as a result of the applicable Assumed Debt Agreement, that is more favorable than the treatment of, or recovery in respect of, Credit Agreement Claims (unless the holders of such Credit Agreement Claims are offered and decline such treatment or recovery), including, but not limited to payment or grant of securities to any Assumed Debt Party or the assumption of any Assumed Debt by any third party; or

(iii) a final adjudication by a court or arbitrator that WNR is liable to any Assumed Debt Party for such Assumed Debt Claim.

(c) WNR acknowledges and agrees that no occurrence or circumstance occurring after the date of this Agreement shall cause a reduction in WNR’s obligations to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Agreement Parties, under this Agreement, other than (i) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7 hereof or (ii) the payment by WNR in cash of any Credit Agreement Claims due and owing by WNR hereunder.

SECTION 3. Obligations Absolute.

WNR’s obligations under this Agreement shall in all respects be continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Credit Agreement Obligations (other than contingent expense reimbursement and indemnification obligations) have been paid in full and all Commitments under the Credit Agreement have been terminated. WNR agrees that any Credit Agreement Claims due and owing by WNR hereunder will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Company or WNR with respect thereto. The liability of WNR under this Agreement shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of:

(a) any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of, or in any other term of, the Credit Agreement Obligations, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other extension, compromise or renewal of the Credit Agreement Obligations;

(b) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of the Credit Agreement Obligations for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be

subject to (and WNR hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, the Credit Agreement Obligations;

(c) any amendment to, rescission, waiver or other modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms of Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(d) any addition, exchange, release, surrender or non-perfection of any collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release or addition of, or consent to departure from, any guaranty, securing any of the Credit Agreement Obligations; or

(e) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Company or WNR.

SECTION 4. Continued Liability.

Notwithstanding the agreements by WNR in respect of the Credit Agreement Claims pursuant to Section 2(a), as between the Company and the holders of any Credit Agreement Obligations, the Company shall continue to be the primary obligor with respect to the Credit Agreement Obligations and the Company shall not be released from its obligations under the Credit Agreement Obligations as a result of this Agreement. In no event shall this Agreement be construed to constitute an assignment or transfer of any of the rights or obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 5. Representations and Warranties.

WNR represents, warrants and affirms for the benefit of the Credit Agreement Parties as follows:

(a) WNR is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Washington with all requisite power and authority to own and operate its properties, to conduct its business as proposed to be conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

SECTION 10. Reinstatement.

This Agreement shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time (a) payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Credit Agreement Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Credit Agreement Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made or (b) (i) Credit Agreement Obligations remain outstanding and (ii) WNR enters into an Assumption Agreement in respect of Assumed Debt after this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms.
