Exhibit 99.1
Audited Temple-Inland Inc. and subsidiaries consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2011 and report of independent auditors.
Report of Independent Auditors
To the Members of Management of Temple-Inland Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Temple-Inland Inc. as of December 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Temple-Inland Inc. as of December 31, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

TEMPLE-INLAND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Temple-Inland Inc., its subsidiaries and special purpose and variable interest entities of which we are the primary beneficiary. We account for our investment in other ventures under the equity method.
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events. Actual results can, and probably will, differ from those we currently estimate. We eliminate all material intercompany accounts and transactions.
Our fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31, which from time to time means that a fiscal year will include 53 weeks instead of 52 weeks. Fiscal year 2011 had 52 weeks, and ended December 31, 2011.
We translate the balance sheets of our international operations where the functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. We include adjustments resulting from financial statement translation in other comprehensive income.
As discussed in Note 3, on February 13, 2012, the company completed the merger with International Paper Company.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We estimate future probable losses of our current trade receivables and establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based on our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues identified during our evaluation.
Activity in our allowance for doubtful accounts is as follows:
For the
Year 2011 |

|
Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations
We recognize legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets when the obligation is incurred. We record the estimated present value of the retirement obligation and increase the carrying value of the long-lived asset by a like amount. Over time, we accrete or increase the liability to its settlement value and we depreciate or decrease the asset to zero. When we settle the obligation we recognize a gain or loss for any difference between the settlement amount and the then recorded obligation.
Our asset retirement obligations consist principally of costs to remediate landfills we operate.
Many of our manufacturing facilities contain asbestos and lead paint. We are currently not required to remove any of these materials, but we could be required to do so in the future if we were to demolish or undertake major renovations of these facilities. At this time we have no such plan, which makes it impractical to estimate the fair value of any related asset retirement obligations. Accordingly, a liability has not been recognized for these asset retirement obligations.
In addition, we record environmental remediation liabilities on an undiscounted basis when environmental assessments or remediation are probable and we can reasonably estimate the cost.
6
TEMPLE-INLAND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
We review our estimates when new information is obtained or circumstances change and make appropriate adjustments to our obligations, when necessary.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and other short-term instruments with original maturities of three months or less.
Fair Value Measurements
Financial instruments for which we did not elect the fair value option include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, other current liabilities, long-term debt, and financial assets and nonrecourse financial liabilities of special purpose entities. With the exception of long-term debt, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature or variable interest rates.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
We do not amortize goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets. Instead, we measure these assets for impairment annually as of the beginning of the fourth quarter of each year and at other times if events or circumstances indicate that impairment might exist. We first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads us to determine that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If we determine it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. However, if we determine otherwise, then we perform the first step of the two-step impairment test by calculating the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing the fair value with the carrying amount of the reporting unit. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then we perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test to measure the amount of the impairment loss. Since testing the annual impairment at the beginning of fourth quarter 2011, there were no changes in the composition of our reporting units or in our operations to indicate that it was likely that there had been any significant deterioration in the estimated fair value of our reporting units. Therefore, we did not test goodwill for impairment at year-end 2011.
We measure goodwill for impairment at the segment level for corrugated packaging and at the reporting unit level for building products. To estimate fair value we use discounted cash flow models, which require us to estimate the amount and timing of future cash flows. Other key assumptions include product pricing, raw material costs and discount rate, which are based on a weighted average cost of capital adjusted for market risk premiums.
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their estimated lives. We capitalize purchased software costs as well as the direct internal and external costs associated with software we develop for our own use. We amortize these capitalized costs using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to seven years.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We review long-lived assets held for use for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment exists if the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable from the undiscounted cash flows expected from its use and eventual disposition. We determine the amount of the impairment loss by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value. In the absence of quoted market prices, we determine estimated fair value generally based on the present value of future probability weighted cash flows expected from the use and eventual disposition of the long-lived asset. We carry assets held for sale at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value less costs to sell.
Income Taxes
We provide deferred income taxes using current tax rates for temporary differences between the financial accounting carrying value of assets and liabilities and their tax accounting carrying values. We recognize and value income tax exposures for the various taxing jurisdictions where we operate based on tax laws, tax elections, commonly accepted tax positions, and management estimates. We include tax penalties and interest in income tax expense.
7
TEMPLE-INLAND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Inventories
We carry inventories at the lower of cost or market. We determine cost using the average cost method, which approximates the first-in, first-out method.
We value non-monetary exchanges of similar inventory at carrying value of the inventory given up instead of the fair value of the inventory received. Our corrugated packaging segment enters into these agreements that generally represent the exchange of linerboard we manufacture for corrugating medium manufactured by others. We include these exchanges in cost of sales.
Pension and Postretirement Plans
We recognize the funded status of our pension plans as assets or liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. The funded status is the difference between our projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets.
Property and Equipment
We carry property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. We capitalize the cost of significant additions and improvements, and we expense the cost of repairs and maintenance, including planned major maintenance. We capitalize interest costs incurred on major construction projects. We depreciate these assets using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Estimated Useful Lives |
Carrying Value at Year-End 2011 |

(In millions) | ||||||
Land and land improvements |
N/A | $ | 46 | |||

|
|
We include in property and equipment $31 million of assets subject to capital leases. We depreciate these assets and any improvements to leased assets using the straight-line method over the shorter of their lease term or their estimated useful lives. We expense operating leases ratably over the lease term.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize product revenue upon passage of title, which occurs at the time the product is delivered to the customer, the price is fixed and determinable, and we are reasonably sure of collection. Our revenues are reported net of allowances, rebates and discounts. Customer rebates are determined based on contract terms and are recorded at time of sale. Allowances for estimated returns are based on our historical experience. Other revenue, which is not significant, is recognized when the service has been performed, the value is determinable, and we are reasonably sure of collection.
We include the amounts billed to customers for shipping in net revenues and the related costs in cost of sales.
8
TEMPLE-INLAND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
We exclude from revenue, amounts we collect from customers that represent sales tax or other taxes that are based on the sale. These amounts are included in other accrued expenses until paid.
Share-Based and Long-Term Incentive Compensation
We account for share-based compensation using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model for stock options and the grant date or period-end fair value of our common stock for all other awards. We generally expense these share-based and long-term incentive awards over the vesting period or earlier based on retirement eligibility criteria.
Special Purpose and Variable Interest Entities
We consolidate special purpose and variable interest entities if we determine that we are the primary beneficiary.
Note 2 Accounting Pronouncements
In fourth quarter 2011, we early adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-08, an amendment to Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, which allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. Adoption did not have an effect on our earnings or financial position.
We have evaluated all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and believe that none of these accounting pronouncements will have a material effect on our earnings or financial position.
Note 3 Merger Agreement
On September 6, 2011, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Merger Agreement) with International Paper Company (IP), under which IP will acquire all of our outstanding common stock for $32.00 per share in cash. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by both our and IPs Board of Directors.
At a special meeting on December 7, 2011, our stockholders approved the adoption of the Merger Agreement. On February 10, 2012 the Department of Justice approved the merger with certain asset divestiture requirements and on February 13, 2012 the merger was completed.
In connection with these matters, we expensed $20 million of professional and other fees in 2011. In addition, we have incurred costs of about $190 million in 2012 principally related to additional professional fees, accelerated vesting of share-based and long-term incentive compensation, and change of control agreements. A significant portion of this cost will be addressed in IPs purchase accounting. We expect to incur significant additional costs related to change of control agreements and severance, which we cannot reasonably estimate until the integration of the companies is completed.

At year-end 2011, we had $680 million in committed credit agreements, which includes a $600 million revolving credit facility that matures in June 2014 and $80 million of other committed credit agreements that mature in 2014. In September 2011, we entered into amendments of our committed credit agreements so that entering into the Merger Agreement did not result in a default. At year-end 2011, we had $5 million of letters of credit usage under our revolving credit facility. Our unused capacity under these facilities was $675 million at year-end 2011. As a result of the completion of the merger with IP on February 13, 2012 these credit agreements were terminated.
At year-end 2011, we had a $250 million accounts receivable securitization facility that expires in 2013. Under this facility, a wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary purchases, on an on-going basis, substantially all our trade receivables. As we need funds, the subsidiary draws under its revolving credit arrangement, pledges the trade receivables as collateral, and remits the proceeds to us. In the event of liquidation of the subsidiary, its creditors would be entitled to satisfy their claims from the subsidiarys pledged receivables prior to distributions back to us. We include this subsidiary in our consolidated financial statements. At year-end 2011, the subsidiary owned $383 million in net trade receivables against which it had borrowed $140 million. At year-end 2011, the unused capacity under this facility was $110 million. The borrowing base, which is determined by the level of our trade receivables, may be below the maximum committed amount of the facility in periods when the balance of our trade receivables is low. At year-end 2011, the borrowing base was $250 million, the maximum committed amount of the facility. In connection with the completion of the merger with IP on February 13, 2012, the accounts receivable securitization agreement was amended to mature on February 13, 2013.
In 2011, we recognized a loss of $4 million associated with the purchase and retirement of $50 million of our 7.875% Senior Notes due 2012.

Note 6 Variable Interest Entities
Financial Assets and Nonrecourse Financial Liabilities of Special Purpose Entities
In October 2007, we sold 1.55 million acres of timberland for $2.38 billion. The total consideration consisted almost entirely of notes due in 2027 issued by the buyer of the timberland, which we contributed to two wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote special purpose entities formed by us. The notes are secured by $2.38 billion of irrevocable letters of credit issued by three banks, which are required to maintain minimum credit ratings on their long-term debt. The letters of credit are secured by the buyers long-term deposit with the banks of $2.38 billion of cash and cash equivalents. The notes require quarterly interest payments based on variable interest rates that reset quarterly (0.47 percent at year-end 2011). Average interest rate on these notes receivable was 0.34 percent for 2011. We recognized interest income of $8 million on these notes receivable in 2011. We received interest payments of $8 million on these notes receivable in 2011.
In December 2007, our two wholly-owned special purpose entities borrowed $2.14 billion. The loans are repayable in 2027 and are secured only by the $2.38 billion of notes and the irrevocable letters of credit securing the notes and are nonrecourse to us. The loan agreements provide that if a credit rating of any of the banks issuing the letters of credit is downgraded below the required minimum, the letters of credit issued by that bank must be replaced within 30 days with letters of credit from another qualifying financial institution. The borrowings require quarterly interest payments based on variable interest rates that reset daily (0.90 percent at year-end 2011). Average interest rate on these notes payable was 0.86 percent for 2011. We recognized interest expense of $19 million on these nonrecourse loans in 2011. We paid $19 million of interest on these nonrecourse loans in 2011.
The buyer of the timberland issued the $2.38 billion in notes from its wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote special purpose entities. The buyers special purpose entities held the timberland from the transaction date until November 2008, at which time the timberland was transferred out of the buyers special purpose entities. Due to the transfer of the timberland, we evaluated the buyers special purpose entities and determined that they were variable interest entities and that we were the primary beneficiary. As a result, in 2008 we began consolidating the buyers special purpose entities.
We include the assets and liabilities of these special purpose entities in our consolidated balance sheets under the captions, Financial Assets of Special Purpose Entities and Nonrecourse Financial Liabilities of Special Purpose Entities. We include the results of operations of these special purpose entities in our consolidated statements of income under the captions, Interest income on financial assets of special purpose entities and Interest expense on nonrecourse financial liabilities of special purpose entities.
On August 11, 2011, the buyer of the timberland and we agreed to have Rabobank Nederland (Rabobank), one of the existing letter of credit banks, issue letters of credit in a voluntary substitution for Royal Bank of Scotland PLC (RBS) as a letter of credit issuer in the transaction. In connection with this voluntary substitution, we paid fees of $1 million to RBS and received an upfront fee of $7 million from Rabobank. If Rabobanks long-term unsecured senior debt were no longer rated at least A+ by Standard & Poors and at least A1 by Moodys, we have agreed to refund to Rabobank on the date of the downgrade the unamortized upfront fees less about $2 million. We will amortize the upfront fee that we received, net of legal expenses incurred, over the term of the letter of credit agreement.
On January 23, 2012, the credit ratings of Société Genéralé were downgraded below the required minimums. As a result, on February 13, 2012, we terminated our agreement with Société Genéralé, and replaced the letters of credit totaling $506 million issued by Société Genéralé with letters of credit issued by N.V. Bank Nederlandse Gemeenten (BNG). In connection with this transaction, we paid fees of $3 million to Société Genéralé, and received an upfront fee of $2 million from BNG, and incurred legal and other expenses of $1 million. Fees paid to Société Genéralé will be recognized as non-operating expense in first quarter 2012. If BNGs long-term unsecured senior debt were no longer rated at least A+ by Standard and Poors and at least A1 by Moodys, we have agreed to refund to BNG on the date of the downgrade the unamortized upfront fees. We will amortize the upfront fee that we received, net of legal expenses incurred, over the term of the letter of credit agreement.

TEMPLE-INLAND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Following these substitutions, the letters of credit issuers are now Rabobank, which has issued letters of credit totaling about $1.4 billion, and Barclays Bank plc and BNG, each of which has issued letters of credit totaling about $500 million.
In 2010, we entered into two separate three-year agreements, one with JP Morgan Chase Bank, National Association and one with Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank whereby each of these banks agreed to issue up to $1.4 billion in irrevocable letters of credit in substitution for letters of credit issued by a bank whose credit ratings were reduced below the required minimums. For each agreement, we paid an upfront fee, which was being amortized over the three-year term of the agreement, and also agreed to pay a quarterly fee on the unused commitment.
In 2011, the credit ratings of Crédit Agricole and J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, National Association were downgraded below the required minimum to issue letters of credit to secure the notes related to the sale of our timberland. As a result, we terminated these agreements and were refunded a pro-rata portion of the unamortized upfront commitment fee and quarterly fee on the unused commitments.
Since these agreements protected the value of the $2.38 billion in notes, we recognized their costs as a reduction to Interest income on financial assets of special purpose entities in our consolidated statements of income. The aggregate expense related to the amortization of the upfront fees and the quarterly fees totaled about $3 million in 2011. Our 2011 non-operating income (expense) includes $1 million of expense related to the voluntary substitution and $1 million of expense related to the termination of our three-year agreements.
Particleboard and Medium Density Fiberboard Facility Lease
In 1999, we entered into an agreement to lease particleboard and medium density fiberboard facilities in Mt. Jewett, Pennsylvania. The lease is for 20 years and includes fixed price purchase options in 2014 and at the end of the lease. The option prices were intended to approximate the estimated fair values of the facilities at those dates and do not represent a guarantee of the facilities residual values. After exhaustive efforts, we were unable to determine whether the lease is with a variable interest entity or if there is a primary beneficiary because the unrelated third-party lessor will not provide the necessary financial information. We account for the lease as an operating lease, and at year-end 2011 our financial interest was limited to our obligation to make the remaining $96 million of contractual lease payments, approximately $12 million per year. In 2007, we recorded an impairment charge for the portion of the long-term operating lease related to the particleboard facility. As a result, $43 million of our future operating lease payments are included on our balance sheet at year-end 2011.

Plan Assets
Our defined benefit investment strategies have been developed as part of a comprehensive asset/liability management process that considers the interaction between assets and liabilities of the plan. These strategies consider not only the expected risk and returns on plan assets, but also the detailed actuarial projections of liabilities as well as plan-level objectives such as projected contributions, expense, and funded status.
14
TEMPLE-INLAND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Our asset allocation strategy matches the duration of about 81 percent of our pension assets to our pension liabilities and also matches the overall credit quality of the pension assets to the implied credit quality of the yield curve used to discount our liabilities. This matched approach reduces the volatility of our defined benefit expense and our funding requirements. The remaining plan assets are targeted to be invested in assets that provide market exposure to mitigate the effects of inflation, mortality and actuarial risks. The defined benefit plan weighted-average asset allocations and the range of target allocations follow:

5.28 | % | 4.78 | % | ||||
Expected rate of return on plan assets |
6.00 | % | | |||||
Rate of compensation increase |
3.10 | % | |
The discount rate we use to determine the present value of the benefit obligation is the Citigroup Pension Discount Curve. We believe the use of the Citigroup Pension Discount Curve reasonably reflects changes in the present value of our defined benefit plan obligation because each years cash flow is discretely discounted at a rate at which it could effectively be settled.
The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is an assumption we make reflecting the anticipated weighted average rate of earnings on the plan assets over the long-term. In selecting that rate particular consideration is given to our asset allocation. For the plan assets invested in debt securities, we used the AA credit risk profile of the discount rate plus a 25 basis point yield premium to reflect the single A credit risk profile of our debt securities. For the remaining plan assets, we used target-weighted returns generated from current asset models. We add a ten basis point active management premium to the total rate of return because the real estate and matched portfolios are actively managed. Our actual return on plan assets was 18.9 percent in 2011.
The assumed health care cost trend rates we used to determine the expense of the postretirement benefit plan were:
For the Year 2011 |
||||
Health care trend rate assumed for the next year |
9.0 | % | ||
Rate to which the cost trend rate is assumed to decline (ultimate trend rate) |
4.5 | % | ||
Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate |
2018 |
These assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts reported for the postretirement benefit plans. For example, a one-percentage-point change in assumed health care cost trend rates would have the following effect:

Cash Flows
After using available credit balances we have accumulated from our voluntary, discretionary contributions in prior years, we anticipate having funding requirements under ERISA in 2012 for about $60 million. Benefits earned under the supplemental defined benefit plan are paid upon retirement, when the employee terminates, or at completion of the merger. Our supplemental defined benefit plan payments to retirees totaled $8 million in 2011.
The postretirement benefit plan is not subject to minimum regulatory funding requirements. Since the postretirement benefit plans are unfunded, the expected $8 million contribution in 2012 represents the estimated health claims to be paid for plan participants, net of retiree contributions and Medicare subsidies.

Note 10 Share-Based and Long-Term Incentive Compensation
We have shareholder approved share-based compensation plans that permit awards to key employees and non-employee directors in the form of cash-settled restricted or performance stock units, stock-settled restricted stock units, or options to purchase shares of our common stock. We also have long-term incentives for key employees in the form of fixed value awards that vest over multiple years.
We generally grant awards annually in February, and we use treasury stock to fulfill awards settled in common stock and stock option exercises.
As a result of the completion of the merger with IP on February 13, 2012 all share-based and long-term incentive awards immediately vested and were paid out.
A summary of these plans follows:
Cash-settled Restricted or Performance Units
Cash-settled restricted or performance units generally have a three-year term; vest after three years from the date of grant or the attainment of stated ROI based performance goals, generally measured over a three-year period; or if there is a change of control, such as the merger. Changes in our estimate of the attainment of stated performance goals could have a significant impact on our share-based compensation expense in any one accounting period.

weighted average period of two years or completion of the merger. The fair value of units vested and to be settled in cash, including accrued dividends of $2 million, was $62 million at year-end 2011, of which $46 million is included in other current liabilities and $16 million in long-term liabilities. The fair value of awards settled in cash was $17 million in 2011. In addition, approximately one-half of our annual director compensation is paid in the form of cash-settled restricted stock units that are deferred until retirement, or change of control, such as the merger. The fair value of these units vested and to be settled in cash included in long-term liabilities was $21 million at year-end 2011.
Stock-settled Restricted Stock Units
Stock-settled restricted stock units generally vest after three years from the date of the grant upon attainment of stated ROI-based performance goals or if there is a change in control, such as the merger. There is no accelerated vesting upon retirement for these awards and cumulative dividends on these awards will be paid at the time of vesting if the stated ROI-based performance goals are met.

We expect to recognize this cost over a weighted average period of two years or upon completion of the merger. Accrued cumulative dividends on these awards was $1 million at year-end 2011.
Stock Options
Stock options have a ten-year term, generally become exercisable ratably over four years and provide for accelerated or continued vesting upon retirement, death, disability, or if there is a change in control, such as the merger. Options are granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of our common stock on the date of grant.

The intrinsic value of options exercised was $27 million in 2011. Unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to non-vested stock option awards was $5 million at year-end 2011. We expect to recognize this cost over a weighted average period of three years, or completion of the merger.
We estimated the fair value of the options granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model and the following assumptions:
For
the Year 2011 |
||||
Expected dividend yield |

Expected stock price volatility |

Risk-free interest rate |
3.3 | % | ||
Expected life of options in years |
8 | |||
Weighted average estimated fair value of options at grant date |
$ | 13.40 |
The expected dividend yield is calculated based on our historical annual dividend payments. The expected stock price volatility is based on historical prices of our common stock for a period corresponding to the expected life of the options with appropriate consideration given to current conditions and events. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities in effect at the date of the grant of the stock options. The expected life of options is based on historical experience. We use historical data to estimate pre-vesting forfeitures stratified into two groups based on job level.
Fixed Value Cash Awards
Long-term incentive compensation expense is related to fixed value cash awards that were granted to employees in February and August 2009. These awards are not tied to our stock price. The fixed value cash awards generally vest over periods from three to six years and provide for accelerated or continued vesting upon retirement, death, disability, or if there is a change in control, such as the merger.
Unrecognized long-term incentive compensation expense related to fixed value cash awards was $3 million at year-end 2011. We expect to recognize this cost over a weighted average period of three years, or upon completion of the merger. Accrued long-term incentive compensation at year-end 2011 was $14 million, of which $11 million is included in other current liabilities and $3 million in long-term liabilities.

We continue our efforts to enhance return on investment by lowering costs, improving operating efficiencies, and increasing asset utilization. As a result, we continue to review operations that are unable to meet return objectives and determine appropriate courses of action, including possibly consolidating and closing facilities. In 2011, in connection with the second phase of our box plant transformation initiative, we closed our box plants in Tampa, Florida, and Carol Stream and Northlake, Illinois, and began production at our new box plant in Aurora, Illinois. Costs related to box plant transformation in 2011, included a multi-employer pension plan withdrawal liability of $8 million associated with our 2010 closure of our Phoenix, Arizona box plant, asset impairment charges of $7 million, severance costs of $2 million, and other transformation related costs of $19 million, primarily related to duplicate and incremental costs associated with production affected by box plant transformation.

Our deferred taxes on timberlands and our alternative minimum tax credits primarily relate to the gain on the sale of our strategic timberland, which was deferred for income tax purposes. Our alternative minimum tax credits can be carried forward indefinitely. Our cellulosic biofuel producer credits will expire in 2015. Our foreign and state net operating loss carry-forwards and credits will expire from 2012 through 2028. A valuation allowance is provided for certain of these foreign and state net operating loss carry-forwards and credits.
We file U.S. federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. In 2009, the Internal Revenue Service opened an examination of our 2006 through 2008 income tax returns. This examination is proceeding. We are no longer subject to examination by state or foreign tax authorities for years before 2000. We have various income tax audits in process at year-end 2011, and we do not expect that the resolution of these matters will have a significant effect on our earnings or financial position.

Note 14 Litigation
We are involved in various legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of doing business and believe that adequate reserves have been established for any probable losses. Expenses related to litigation are included in operating income.
On September 9, 2010, we were one of eight containerboard producers named as defendants in a class action complaint that alleged a civil violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act. The suit is captioned Kleen Products LLC v. Packaging Corp. of America (N.D. Ill.). The complaint alleges that the defendants, beginning in August 2005, conspired to limit the supply and thereby increase prices of containerboard products. The alleged class is all persons who purchased containerboard products directly from any defendant for use or delivery in the United States during the period August 2005 to November 2010. The complaint seeks to recover an unspecified amount of treble actual damages and attorneys fees on behalf of the purported class. Four similar complaints were filed and have been consolidated in the Northern District of Illinois. We dispute the allegations made against us and intend to defend vigorously against this litigation. However, because this action is in its preliminary stages, we are unable to predict an outcome or estimate a range of reasonably possible loss. There were no significant developments in this litigation in 2011.
The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas captioned Tepper v. Temple-Inland Inc., (filed August 22, 2011). This lawsuit is brought on behalf of certain creditors of Guaranty Financial Group by the liquidating trustee and alleges, among other things, that the Company and certain of its affiliates, officers, and directors caused the failure of Guaranty Financial Group and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Guaranty Bank, and asserts various claims related to the failure. Among the claims made are alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the individual defendants related to (1) Guaranty Financial Groups payment of dividends in 2006 and early 2007 and (2) Guaranty Financial Groups transfers of real property to subsidiaries of the Company for allegedly inadequate consideration in December 2005 and in late 2007. Claims are also made against the Company based on allegations that those transactions were fraudulent transfers. We believe all of the claims made in the lawsuit are without merit, and we intend to defend them vigorously.
The Company is also a defendant in a lawsuit captioned North Port Firefighters Pension v. Temple-Inland Inc., filed on November 11, 2011 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas. The lawsuit alleges a class action against the Company and certain individual defendants contending that the Company misrepresented the financial condition of Guaranty Financial Group during the period December 12, 2007 through August 24, 2009. The Company distributed the stock of Guaranty Financial Group to its shareholders on December 28, 2007, after which Guaranty Financial Group was an independent, publicly held company. The action is pled as a securities claim on behalf of persons who acquired Guaranty Financial Group stock during the putative class period. The action is largely based on allegations of fact that are substantially similar to factual allegations made in the Tepper litigation. We believe the claims made in this lawsuit are without merit, and we intend to defend them vigorously.
Each of the individual defendants in both the Tepper litigation and the North Port litigation has requested advancement of their costs of defense from the Company and has asserted a right to indemnification under indemnification rights granted by the Company. The Company is advancing costs of defense which have been expensed as incurred and believes that all or part of these costs and any damages awarded against the individual defendants and covered by the Company indemnity will be covered losses under the Companys directors and officers insurance. The carriers under the applicable policies have been notified of the claims and each has responded with a reservation of rights letter.
On Saturday, August 13, 2011, we received predictive test results at our Bogalusa, Louisiana paper mill indicating that Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) limits for permitted discharge from the wastewater treatment pond into the Pearl River would be exceeded after an upset condition in an evaporator at the mill and confirmed reports of a fish kill on the Pearl River (the Bogalusa Incident). We promptly initiated a full mill shut down, notified the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) of the situation and took corrective actions to restore the water quality of the river. On September 2, 2011, we restarted our Bogalusa mill operations upon
24
TEMPLE-INLAND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
receiving approval from the LDEQ. We incurred $6 million in costs related to these clean-up activities. The LDEQ, the Mississippi DEQ, and other regulatory agencies in those states have each given a notice of intent to levy penalties and recover restitution damages resulting from the Bogalusa Incident. To date, we have settled for a total of about $1 million the known claims of the Mississippi regulatory agencies and the Louisiana Fish and Wildlife Department (LDWF), but the settlement with the LDWF for restitution damages related to the Bogalusa Incident is being challenged in the state district court for Washington Parish, Louisiana in a suit brought by the district attorney for Washington Parish. We believe that the claims made in the Washington Parish lawsuit are without merit, and we intend to defend them vigorously.
The U.S. Attorneys Office in New Orleans has issued a grand jury subpoena and EPA and various state agencies have initiated investigations into the Bogalusa Incident that are not resolved by the settlements described above. We estimated and recognized our potential fines or penalties that still may be levied against us in connection with the Bogalusa Incident, to be about $1 million. We have been named as a defendant in 18 civil lawsuits related to the Bogalusa Incident. Fifteen of these civil cases were filed in Louisiana state court and have been removed and consolidated in an action pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana along with a civil case originally filed in that court styled McGehee v. TIN Inc. (filed September 20, 2011). The other two civil cases are the suit filed by the district attorney for Washington Parish and a suit pending in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, Prestenbach v. TIN Inc. (filed October 11, 2011). Additional lawsuits may be filed in connection with the Bogalusa Incident following the date of this report. At this early stage, we are not able to estimate any potential loss from these proceedings. However, we believe most of the claims have no merit, and we are defending them vigorously.
In 2011, we reversed $3 million in litigation reserves related to alleged violations of the California on duty meal break laws. This reversal was based on the settlement of existing cases, a review of our operational practices, and an examination of the statute of limitations.
We do not believe that the outcome of any of these matters should have a significant adverse effect on our financial position, long-term results of operations, or cash flows. It is possible however that charges related to these matters could be significant to our results or cash flows in any one accounting period.
Note 15 Commitments and Other Contingencies
We lease manufacturing and other facilities and equipment under operating lease agreements. Future minimum rental commitments under non-cancelable operating leases having a remaining term in excess of one year are:

Total rent expense was $47 million in 2011. In 2007, we recorded an impairment charge related to a long-term operating lease. This charge did not affect our continuing obligations under the lease, including paying rent and maintaining the equipment. The present value of the future payments is included on our balance sheet, of which $7 million is included in current liabilities and $36 million in other long-term liabilities at year-end 2011.
We also lease two production facilities under sale-lease back transactions with two municipalities. The municipalities purchased the production facilities from us in 1992 and 1995 for $188 million, our carrying value, and we leased the facilities back from the municipalities under capital lease agreements, which expire in 2022 and 2025. Concurrently, we purchased $188 million of interest-bearing bonds issued by these municipalities. The bonds have terms that are identical to the lease terms, are secured by payments under the capital lease obligations, and the municipalities are obligated only to the extent the underlying lease payments are made by us. The interest rates implicit in the leases are the same as the interest rates on the bonds. As a result, the present value of the capital lease obligations is $188 million, the same as the principal amount of the bonds. Because there is no legal right of offset, the bonds are included in other assets at their cost of $188 million and the $188 million present value of the capital lease obligations are included in other long-term liabilities. The implicit interest expense on the leases and the interest income on the bonds are included in other non-operating income (expense). There is no net effect from these transactions as we are in substance both the obligor on, and the holder of, the bonds.

At year-end 2011, we had unconditional purchase obligations, principally for sawtimber, pulpwood, gypsum, and to a lesser extent major capital expenditures, aggregating $1.5 billion that will be paid over the next twenty-one years. This includes $1.2 billion related to fiber supply agreements for pulpwood and sawtimber. These purchase obligations are valued using minimum required purchase commitments at year-end 2011 market prices. However, our actual purchases may exceed our minimum commitments and will be at the then current market prices. Through year-end 2011, our purchases under these contracts have exceeded the minimum requirements. As a result, we have no liability for unfulfilled commitments.
In connection with our Del-Tin joint venture operation, we have guaranteed debt of $15 million at year-end 2011. Generally we would fund this guarantee for lack of specific performance by the joint venture, such as non-payment of debt.
Note 16 Fair Values and Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments
Fair value measures are classified into a three-tiered fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair values as follows:
Level 1 | | Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets | ||
Level 2 | | Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, which are observable either directly or indirectly | ||
Level 3 | | Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require a reporting entity to develop its own assumptions |
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of the following valuation techniques:
Market approach
Market approach | | Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. | ||
Cost approach | | Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost). | ||
Income approach | | Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on market expectations (including present-value techniques, option-pricing and excess earning models). |
We elected not to use the fair value option for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, other current liabilities, long-term debt, and financial assets and nonrecourse financial liabilities of special purpose entities. With the exception of long-term debt, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature or variable interest rates.
Information about our fixed rate long-term debt that is not measured at fair value follows:

Financial Liabilities |
||||||||||
Fixed rate, long-term debt |
$ | 490 | $ | 542 | Level 2 - Market approach |
Differences between carrying value and fair value of our long-term debt are primarily due to instruments that provide fixed interest rates or contain fixed interest rate elements. Inherently, such instruments are subject to fluctuations in fair value due to subsequent movements in interest rates. At year-end 2011, we had guaranteed joint venture obligations principally related to fixed-rate debt instruments totaling $15 million. The estimated fair value of these guarantees is not significant.

Note 18 Segment Information
We have two business segments: corrugated packaging and building products. Corrugated packaging manufactures linerboard, corrugating medium, and white-top linerboard (collectively referred to as containerboard), that we convert into corrugated packaging and light-weight gypsum facing paper. Building products manufactures a variety of building products.
We evaluate segment performance based on operating income before items not included in segments and income taxes. Items not included in segments represent items managed on a company-wide basis and include corporate general and administrative expense, share-based and long-term incentive compensation, other operating and non-operating income (expense), and interest expense. Other operating income (expense) includes gain or loss on sale of assets, asset impairments, and unusual income or expense. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the accounting policy notes to the financial statements. Intersegment sales are recorded at market prices. Intersegment sales and business support expense allocations are netted in costs and expenses.

Note 20 Subsequent Events
We have evaluated events subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2011 through February 27, 2012.
On January 23, 2012, the credit ratings of Société Genéralé were downgraded below the required minimums. As a result, on February 13, 2012, we terminated our agreement with Société Genéralé, and replaced the letters of credit totaling $506 million issued by Société Genéralé with letters of credit issued by N.V. Bank Nederlandse Gemeenten. See Note 6.
On February 10, 2012, the Department of Justice approved the merger with IP with certain asset divestiture requirements and on February 13, 2012, the merger was completed. Temple-Inland is now a wholly owned subsidiary of International Paper. See Note 3 for further information on merger related costs. As a result of the completion of the merger with IP on February 13, 2012 our existing $680 million in committed credit agreements, which includes a $600 million revolving credit facility and $80 million of other committed credit agreements that mature in 2014, were terminated. In addition, in connection with the completion of the merger with IP, our $250 million accounts receivable securitization facility, which would have been terminated due to the merger, was amended to mature on February 13, 2013. See Note 5.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
1. | Basis of Presentation |
On February 13, 2012, International Paper, upon regulatory approval, completed the previously announced acquisition of Temple. International Paper acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Temple for $32.00 per share in cash and assumed approximately $740 million of Temples debt. The total transaction is valued at approximately $4.5 billion. As a condition to allowing the transaction to proceed, the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice entered into an agreement with International Paper that requires the divestiture of three containerboard mills, with approximately 970,000 tons of aggregate containerboard capacity, within four months of closing (with the possibility of two 30-day extensions).
The preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets and liabilities acquired reflected in Note 2 below is based on Temples publicly-reported financial statements and International Papers estimates since the acquisition have not progressed to a stage where there is sufficient information to make a definitive allocation. Accordingly, these purchase price allocation pro forma adjustments are preliminary.
2. | Pro Forma Adjustments |
The following notes relate to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet:
(a) | Includes approximately $2.5 billion of notes receivable in Deferred charges and other assets, and $2.14 billion in non-recourse loans borrowed by Temple and secured only by the $2.38 billion of notes and the letters of credit received when Temple sold its timberlands in 2007. |
(b) | Represents the preliminary fair value adjustment for Temples inventory. |
(c) | Reflects the elimination of intercompany receivables and payables between International Paper and Temple. |
(d) | Represents $2.5 billion of acquisition consideration paid from cash on hand. Also represents the payment of debt issuance costs and acquisition costs in cash. |
(e) | Represents a preliminary adjustment to value plants, properties and equipment acquired at estimated fair value. |
(f) | Represents the elimination of Temples pre-acquisition goodwill. |
(g) | Represents the preliminary estimated goodwill related to the Temple acquisition. |
(h) | Represents the $1.3 billion of long-term debt to finance the acquisition, and the capitalization of $38 million of related debt issuance costs. |
(i) | Represents the fair value adjustment of Temples debt. |
(j) | Represents deferred taxes on the preliminary adjustment of Temples plants, properties and equipment and debt to estimated fair value. |
(k) | Represents the elimination of Temples equity, excluding noncontrolling interest, and the recognition of expense related to transaction costs paid in cash. |
The following notes relate to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations:
(l) | Temple does not separately disclose amounts for these captions. |
(m) | Represents the elimination of sales between Temple and International Paper. |
(n) | Represents additional depreciation resulting from the preliminary adjustment of Temples plants, properties and equipment to estimated fair value based on a preliminary estimated average useful life of 14 years. |
(o) | Reflects expense related to costs to effect the acquisition. |
(p) | Represents preliminary estimated additional interest expense incurred in connection with financing the acquisition, plus the straight-line amortization of debt issuance costs incurred to finance the acquisition over the term of the related debt. Also includes amortization related to the fair value adjustment of Temple debt over the life of the related debt. |
(q) | Represents the tax effect of the above pro forma adjustments that are deductible based upon a combined statutory federal and state tax rate of 39%. |
