The Merger Agreement was adopted and approved by the stockholders of Cellu Tissue at a special meeting of Cellu Tissue stockholders on held December 23, 2010. The Merger became effective on December 27, 2010. As a result of the Merger, Cellu Tissue became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Clearwater Paper.

As provided in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger each outstanding Share, other than any Shares owned by Clearwater Paper or Merger Sub, by Cellu Tissue as treasury stock, or by any stockholders who are entitled to, and who properly exercise, appraisal rights under Delaware law, was converted into the right to receive $12.00 in cash without interest. Each of the 1,000 shares of common stock of Merger Sub was converted into one share of common stock of Cellu Tissue at the effective time of the Merger.

(d) Reference is made to Items 4(a)-(b) above. Pursuant to Section 1.5 of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger became the directors of Cellu Tissue.
