ITEM 1.01  ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of the former Wisconsin Tissue Mills Inc. (now WTM I Company, “WTM”) commercial and industrial tissue business from Philip Morris Inc. (now Philip Morris USA, Inc., “Philip Morris”) in 1985, Philip Morris agreed to indemnify WTM and the Company for losses relating to breaches of representations and warranties set forth in the acquisition agreement .  The Company identified PCB contamination in the Fox River in Wisconsin as a basis for a claim for indemnification.  Beginning in 1994, Philip Morris has made indemnification payments in excess of $53 million for Fox River losses.  In mid-June 2008, Philip Morris asserted a claim that it did not have an indemnification obligation and refused to continue to indemnify WTM and the Company for their losses related to the Fox River.  That claim was resolved on June 26, 2008 in a settlement described in a Consent Decree filed with the Circuit Court of Henrico County, Virginia, by which, among other things, (i) Philip Morris releases its claims for recovery of past indemnification payments; (ii) Philip Morris agrees to cooperate in WTM’s recovery under certain general liability insurance policies; and (iii) Philip Morris’ maximum liability for future indemnification under the 1985 acquisition agreement is capped to $36 million.  The settlement is expected to provide substantial funds to cover the Company’s reasonably probable costs related to the Fox River matter.
