Forward-Looking Statements This supplemental information contains, in addition to historical information, certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding outlook for Q3 2013, production, product volumes shipped, product pricing, pulp costs, wood fiber costs and supply, chemical costs, transportation costs, energy costs including natural gas, cost and timing of major maintenance and repairs, corporate expenses, production and shipments from our new tissue machine and converting lines in Shelby, North Carolina and our Pro Forma Quarterly Run Rate. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections that are subject to change. Our actual results of operations may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation. Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include the risks and uncertainties described from time to time in the company's public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the following: • customer acceptance and timing of purchases of our new through-air-dried (TAD) products and capacity; • difficulties with the optimization and realization of the benefits expected from our new TAD paper machine and converting lines in Shelby, North Carolina; • increased dependence on wood pulp; • changes in the cost and availability of wood fiber and wood pulp; • changes in transportation costs and disruptions in transportation services; • manufacturing or operating disruptions, including equipment malfunction and damage to our manufacturing facilities; • changes in costs for and availability of packaging supplies, chemicals, energy and maintenance and repairs; • competitive pricing pressures for our products, including as a result of increased capacity as additional manufacturing facilities are operated by our competitors; • changes in customer product preferences and competitors' product offerings; • changes in the U.S. and international economies and in general economic conditions in the regions and industries in which we operate; • increased supply and pricing pressures resulting from increasing Asian paper production capabilities; • cyclical industry conditions; • reliance on a limited number of third-party suppliers for raw materials; • labor disruptions; and • inability to successfully implement our expansion strategies. Forward-looking statements contained in this presentation present management’s views only as of the date of this presentation.

Six Months Ended June 30, Segment Reconciliation from Non-GAAP Measures (Unaudited) 1 Segment EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that management uses to evaluate the cash generating capacity of the company. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is segment operating income. Segment EBITDA is segment operating income adjusted for depreciation and amortization. It should not be considered as an alternative to segment operating income computed under GAAP. 2 Segment Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of the items listed that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. 18 (Dollars in thousands) Q1'12 Q2'12 Q3'12 Q4'12 Q1'13 Q2'13 2012 2013 Consumer Products Operating income $ 26,271 $ 25,696 $ 18,453 $ 22,927 $ 10,124 $ 14,815 $ 51,967 $ 24,939 Depreciation and amortization expense 13,165 13,252 13,275 14,855 16,092 17,030 26,417 33,122 Segment EBITDA1 $ 39,436 $ 38,948 $ 31,728 $ 37,782 $ 26,216 $ 31,845 $ 78,384 $ 58,061 Loss on sale of foam assets - 1,014 - - - - 1,014 - Costs associated with announced Thomaston facility closure - - - - 183 1,013 - 1,196 Segment Adjusted EBITDA 2 $ 39,436 $ 39,962 $ 31,728 $ 37,782 $ 26,399 $ 32,858 $ 79,398 $ 59,257 Pulp and Paperboard Operating income $ 11,658 $ 32,001 $ 34,449 $ 25,802 $ 17,553 $ 24,772 $ 43,659 $ 42,325 Depreciation and amortization expense 6,011 6,011 5,525 5,566 5,659 5,778 12,022 11,437 Segment EBITDA1 $ 17,669 $ 38,012 $ 39,974 $ 31,368 $ 23,212 $ 30,550 $ 55,681 $ 53,762 Segment Adjusted EBITDA 2 $ 17,669 $ 38,012 $ 39,974 $ 31,368 $ 23,212 $ 30,550 $ 55,681 $ 53,762 Corporate Operating income ($12,281) ($13,200) ($13,140) ($13,249) ($15,194) ($9,873) ($25,481) ($25,067) Depreciation and amortization expense 372 467 399 435 400 445 839 845 Segment EBITDA1 ($11,909) ($12,733) ($12,741) ($12,814) ($14,794) ($9,428) ($24,642) ($24,222) Expenses associated with Metso litigation 990 958 - 71 - - 1,948 - Directors' equity-based compensation (benefit) expense (417) 322 1,801 (337) 3,472 (1,141) (95) 2,331 Segment Adjusted EBITDA 2 ($11,336) ($11,453) ($10,940) ($13,080) ($11,322) ($10,569) ($22,789) ($21,891) 18
