WHEREAS, the Company was formed on January 28, 2010 pursuant to the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, 6 Del. C. §§ 18-101, et seq., as amended from time to time (the “Delaware Act”); and

WHEREAS, the Company and the initial Member desire to enter into this Agreement in order to set forth the operating procedures of the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, the agreement governing the Company is as follows:

1. Name. The name of the Company is “CSI Canada LLC”.

2. Purpose. The Company is organized for the purpose of engaging in any and all activities permitted under applicable law, including without limitation engaging in the manufacture, sale, and distribution of paper products and engaging in any related business, including entering into any partnership, limited liability company, joint venture or other similar arrangement or owning interests in any entity engaged in any of the foregoing activities. The Company will have the power to engage in all actions, proceedings, activities, and transactions that the Management Board may deem necessary or advisable in connection with the foregoing purposes.

3. Registered Office and Registered Agent. The registered office of the Company in the State of Delaware is Corporation Trust Center, 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware, U.S. The name and address of the registered agent of the Company for service of process on the Company in the State of Delaware is The Corporation Trust Company.

4. Members. The name and the address of each Member is set forth on Schedule I hereto. Schedule I may be amended from time to time to reflect the withdrawal of Members, the admission of additional Members, the transfers of interests or the change in a security issued to a Member (a “Unit”) representing the percentage that is set forth opposite such Member’s name on Schedule I (a “Unit Percentage”), as such schedule shall be amended from time to time. Any person or entity shall be deemed admitted to the Company as a Member upon its execution of a counterpart signature page to this Agreement.

5. Management Board.

5.1 Formation. The Company hereby establishes a management board for the Company (the “Management Board”), which will manage the business and affairs of the Company and have all of the powers of a board of directors of a Delaware corporation. The

Management Board is, to the extent of its rights and powers set forth in this Agreement, an agent of the Company and the actions of the Company by and through the Management Board taken in accordance with those rights and powers will bind the Company. Except as authorized by the Management Board or as set forth in this Agreement, no Member may participate in the management and control of the Company nor may any Member act on behalf of the Company in connection with any matter in connection with the Company. The Management Board will initially consist of David Ovis and J. Per Brodin. By signing this Agreement, the initial Member will be deemed to have voted for the election of the foregoing persons to serve as the initial Management Board members. The names and mailing addresses of the members of the Management Board will be set forth in the books and records of the Company. The number of members of the Management Board will be fixed as established by the Management Board from time to time and may be no fewer than one member and no more than ten members.

5.2 Meetings. Meetings of the Management Board may be called by the Chairman of the Management Board or by any member of the Management Board on at least two business days’ prior written notice to each member of the Management Board, which notice will contain the time and place of the meeting. A majority of the members of the Management Board will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business by the Management Board. All actions of the Management Board will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Management Board. Decisions made by the Management Board at any meeting, however convened, will be as valid as though held after due notice if, either before or after the meeting, each member of the Management Board signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of the meeting or written approval of the minutes of the meeting.

5.3 Telephone Meetings and Unanimous Written Consent. Meetings of the Management Board may be held by telephone conference or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other and participate in the conversation. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Management Board may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice if all of the voting members of the Management Board consent in writing to that action. The consents will be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Management Board and will have the same force and effect as a unanimous vote of the Management Board.

5.4 Committees of the Board. The Management Board may designate an executive committee and other committees, each consisting of one or more members of the Management Board. Each committee (including its members) will serve at the pleasure of the Management Board and will keep minutes of its meetings and report the same to the Management Board. A majority of all the voting members of a committee will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and the vote of majority of all the voting members of a committee will be the act of the committee. In other respects each committee will conduct its business in the same manner as the Management Board conducts its business pursuant to this Section 5. Each committee will adopt whatever other rules of procedure it determines for the conduct of its activities.

5.5 Chairman. The Management Board may, if it so determines, elect from among its members a Chairman of the Board. The Chairman of the Board, if any, will preside at all meetings of the Management Board and of the Members at which the Chairman is present and will have and may exercise such powers as may, from time to time, be assigned to him or her by the Management Board or as may be provided by applicable law.

5.6 Limitation on Liability. Members of the Management Board will not, solely by reason of being a member of the Management Board, be personally liable for the expenses, liabilities, or obligations of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise.

5.7 Compensation and Reimbursement. Members of the Management Board will not receive compensation for their services performed on behalf of the Company or other benefits they provide to the Company, unless otherwise established by Management Board in its sole discretion. Members of the Management Board will be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with attendance at meetings of the Management Board or any committee conducting the business and affairs of the Company.

5.8 Authority, Duties, and Obligations. The members of the Management Board will devote as much of their time to the affairs of the Company as in the judgment of the members of the Management Board the business reasonably requires, and the members of the Management Board will not be obligated to do or perform any act or thing in connection with the Company not expressly set forth in this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to preclude the members of the Management Board from engaging directly or indirectly in any other business or from directly or indirectly purchasing, selling, holding, or otherwise dealing with any securities for the account of any such other business, for its own accounts or for other clients.

5.9 Certifications. Any person dealing with the Company may rely (without duty of further inquiry) upon a certificate issued by the Company that is signed by any member of the Management Board or any of the officers as to any of the following:
