Past Contacts, Transactions, Negotiations and Agreements. On December 21, 2000, Mr. Rogel called Mr. Swindells. Mr. Swindells stated that the parties had nothing to talk about and that the Company was not for sale, and declined Mr. Rogel's invitation to negotiate or otherwise discuss a business combination transaction between Parent and the Company. Item 11. Additional Information. On December 8, 2000, the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians of Oregon and Smokey Point Hardwoods, Inc., jointly filed a complaint against Parent in the Federal District Court for the District of Oregon. The complaint - 2 - alleged that Parent has engaged in certain anti-competitive practices in the alder lumber industry which forced plaintiffs to close down their respective sawmills in 1998 and 1999, respectively, and sought monetary damages in an unspecified amount. On December 19, 2000, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint seeking damages of $30 million and injunctive relief ordering Parent to divest itself of certain assets pertaining to the alder lumber industry, and preventing Parent from acquiring forest lands with a significant alder inventory from the Company or any other sizeable forest landowner in Oregon and Washington. Parent believes the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend itself it vigorously. - 3 - SIGNATURES After due inquiry and to the best of their knowledge and belief, the undersigned hereby certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
