Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On December 17, 2012, Rayonier Inc. (the "Company"), Rayonier TRS Holdings Inc. and Rayonier Operating Company LLC (the "Borrowers") entered into a seven-year credit agreement governing the terms of a $640 million Senior Unsecured Term Credit Facility (the "Term Credit Agreement") with COBANK, ACB, as Administrative Agent, Sole Bookrunner and Joint Lead Arranger, Farm Credit East, ACA, as Joint Lead Arranger and several other financial institutions party thereto, as lenders. The Term Credit Agreement has a delayed draw feature that allows the Borrowers to borrow up to $640 million through December 17, 2017 under a maximum of five advances. The Term Credit Agreement matures on December 17, 2019. At closing, Rayonier TRS Holdings Inc. borrowed $300 million under the Term Credit Agreement and used the proceeds to pay down its outstanding borrowings under the Company's 2011 revolving credit agreement (the "Revolving Credit Agreement").

The periodic interest rate on the Term Credit Agreement is LIBOR +1.50% which is determined based on the Company's credit rating. The Borrowers also expect to receive annual patronage refunds under the Term Credit Agreement. Patronage refunds are profit distributions made by a cooperative to its member-users based on the quantity or value of business done with the member-user. The Company expects the effective interest rate on the Term Credit Agreement, after consideration of the cash patronage refunds, to be approximately LIBOR +1.00%.

The Term Credit Agreement contains various provisions and covenants customary to credit agreements with borrowers having investment-grade debt ratings. These provisions and covenants are substantially identical to those of the Company's Revolving Credit Agreement. For a complete description of the terms of the Term Credit Agreement, see Exhibit 10.1 hereto. The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Term Credit Agreement, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Advances to any Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Termination Date up to the full amount of such Lender’s Commitment hereunder; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of such Advances made by such Lender at any time outstanding for all Borrowers shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and (ii) the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances made by all Lenders shall not exceed at any time the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders. Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall consist of Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments. The Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.01 subject to limitation set forth in this Section 2.01, prepay pursuant to Section 2.11 and reborrow under this Section 2.01; provided, however, that there shall be no more than five (5) Borrowings during the term of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.02.Making the Advances.

(a)The initial Borrowing under the Facility shall be made by TRS, in an aggregate principal amount equal to $300,000,000, and the Advances to be made by each Lender as part of such initial Borrowing shall be made on the Closing Date. Not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) at least 3 Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice requesting such initial Borrowing on the Closing Date and specifying the Type of Advances to be made (which, with respect to the initial Borrowing on the Closing Date, shall be either Eurodollar Rate Advances or Alternate Base Rate Advances), and if such Advances are to be Eurodollar Rate Advances, the initial Interest Period for such Advances, which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly give to each Lender. Each Borrowing made after the Closing Date shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or (y) 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing to be comprised of Alternate Base Rate Advances, by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier or telex in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, (iv) remittance instructions, and (v) in the case of a Borrowing consisting

of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. If no election as to Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing is specified in any such Notice of Borrowing, then such Advances shall be Alternate Base Rate Advances. If no Interest Period with respect to Eurodollar Rate Advances is specified in any such Notice of Borrowing, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month duration.

(b)At any time during the period from the Closing Date to but excluding the Termination Date, a Borrower may, as set forth in this subsection (b) request that the Administrative Agent provide a Quoted Rate for a proposed Borrowing of Quoted Rate Advances. When a Borrower wishes to make such a request, it shall give the Administrative Agent notice (a “Quoted Rate Request”) so as to be received no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) four (4) Business Days prior to the proposed date of a Borrowing of Quoted Rate Advances. Each Quoted Rate Request shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto and shall specify (i) the proposed date of the Borrowing of such Quoted Rate Advances, (ii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing of Quoted Rate Advances, and (iii) the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such Quoted Rate Request, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested an Interest Period having the minimum duration specified in clause (v) of the definition of Interest Period. Upon receipt of a Quoted Rate Request from a Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall (i) when available on the same Business Day as such Quoted Rate Request is made by such Borrower, provide such Borrower with a non-binding indicative Quoted Rate and (ii) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the next Business Day after receipt of a Quoted Rate Request (or such later date as the applicable Borrower may specify in the Quoted Rate Request), notify the applicable Borrower in writing of the proposed Quoted Rate (a “Quoted Rate Quote”) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-3, in each case for the Interest Period applicable to the requested Quoted Rate Advances, and in the case of the Quoted Rate Quote, the Administrative Agent shall provide copies to each Lender. The applicable Borrower must decline or accept a proposed Quoted Rate quoted by the Administrative Agent by notifying the Administrative Agent in writing (a “Quoted Rate Acceptance”) not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the same Business Day that it received the proposed Quoted Rate from the Administrative Agent, and in the case of an acceptance, providing remittance instructions for the Quoted Rate Advances for which the Quoted Rate has been given; provided that if no written notification is received by such time, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have declined the proposed Quoted Rate.Each Quoted Rate Acceptance shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B-4 hereto. An acceptance of a Quoted Rate by the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to be a notice of borrowing for Quoted Rate Advances (a “Notice of Quoted Rate Borrowing”) to be made on the proposed date, and in the amount, for the proposed Borrowing of Quoted Rate Advances specified in the Quoted Rate Request in respect of which such Quoted Rate has been provided, with an Interest Period of the duration specified in such Quoted Rate Request. If the applicable Borrower accepts a proposed Quoted Rate for the requested Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall confirm with the applicable Borrower in writing not later than 1:00 p.m. on same Business Day that such Borrower accepts a proposed Quoted Rate the agreed upon Quoted Rate, with copies of such confirmation to each Lender. Once

a proposed Quoted Rate has been accepted by the applicable Borrower and confirmed as set forth herein, the Quoted Rate for the applicable Interest Period in respect of the aggregate principal amount of the Borrowing of Quoted Rate Advances specified in the Quoted Rate Request for which the Quoted Rate has been provided will be locked in as of the Business Day that such Quoted Rate is accepted by the applicable Borrower and confirmed, and each Lender shall be obligated to make its ratable portion of the Quoted Rate Advances for which the Borrower has accepted the Quoted Rate.

(c)Each Lender shall on the Closing Date with respect to the initial Borrowing and on the date of any other Borrowing, before 12:00 Noon (New York City time), in the case of a Borrowing to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, and before 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), in the case of a Borrowing to be comprised of Alternate Base Rate Advances or Quoted Rate Advances, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.02, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the applicable Borrower in the manner specified by the applicable Borrower in the Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Quoted Rate Advance Borrowing, as the case may be.

(d)Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) no Borrower may select Eurodollar Rate Advances for any Borrowing if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.09 or Section 2.13, and (ii) the Eurodollar Rate Advances and Quoted Rate Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than ten separate Interest Periods, with no more than five pertaining to Borrowings of Quoted Rate Advances.

(e)Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Quoted Rate Advance Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the applicable Borrower.

(f)The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

Once a proposed Quoted Rate has been accepted by the applicable Borrower and confirmed as set forth herein, the Quoted Rate for the applicable Interest Period in respect of the Advances to be Converted to Quoted Rate Advances as specified in the Quoted Rate Request for Conversion will be locked in as of the Business Day that such Quoted Rate is accepted by the applicable Borrower and confirmed.

(b)Mandatory Conversion. (i) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances and/or Quoted Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $5,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Alternate Base Rate Advances,

and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (x) each Eurodollar Rate Advance and each Quoted Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into an Alternate Base Rate Advance, and (y) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances and Quoted Rate Advances shall be suspended.

SECTION 2.11.Prepayments of Advances. Any Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day of the proposed date of the prepayment in the case of Alternate Base Rate Advances and on the third Business Day prior to the proposed date of the prepayment in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances or Quoted Rate Advances, in each case stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances owed by such Borrower comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.23.

SECTION 2.12.Increased Costs.

(a)Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate);

(ii)subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Rate Advance made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.15 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender); or

(iii)impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Advances made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Advance or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return in any material respect on such Lender’s capital or liquidity or on the capital or liquidity of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Advances made by a Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity requirements), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, jointly and severally, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.12 and delivered to Rayonier, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender, jointly and severally, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d)Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Rayonier of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six (6) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

SECTION 2.13.Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, (i) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify Rayonier and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and (ii) each Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full all Eurodollar Rate Advances of such Borrower then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, unless such Borrower, within five (5) Business Days of notice from the Administrative Agent, Converts all Eurodollar Rate Advances of such Borrower then outstanding into Alternate Base Rate Advances in accordance with Section 2.10.

SECTION 2.14.Payments.

(a)The Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or Unused Commitment Fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12, 2.15, 2.20(b) and 2.23) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignor and the Lender assignee thereunder in accordance with such Assignment and Assumption, on a pro rata basis and subject to all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date.

(b)Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or Unused Commitment Fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances or Quoted Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

SECTION 2.15.Taxes.

(a)Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if any Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the Administrative Agent and each Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) the applicable Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b)Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Borrowers shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c)Indemnification by the Borrowers. The applicable Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after demand

therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Rayonier by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e)Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which any Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to Rayonier (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Rayonier, the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by Rayonier, the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Rayonier, the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable Rayonier, the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to Rayonier and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of Rayonier, the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i)duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

(ii)duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,

(iii)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or

(iv)any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the applicable Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(f)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrowers, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to the applicable Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 2.16.Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Advances or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Advances and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Advances and other amounts owing them; provided that:

(i)if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii)the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

Each Borrower hereby consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Borrower in the amount of such participation

SECTION 2.17.Evidence of Debt.

(a)Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Advances. Each Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to any Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, such Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount up to the Commitment of such Lender.

(b)The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.07(c) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the applicable Borrower thereof, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from each Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c)Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.18.Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) for (a) in the case of the initial Advance of $300,000,000 on the Closing Date, the refinancing of Debt under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement that was drawn to repay all amounts outstanding under Rayonier’s Senior Exchangeable Notes due 2012 and to pay fees and expenses related thereto, and (b) with respect to all other Advances, ongoing working capital needs and general corporate purposes of the applicable Borrower and its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, acquisitions, repayment of Debt and repurchase of Capital Stock).

SECTION 2.19.[Intentionally Omitted].

SECTION 2.20.Mitigation    Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or requires any Borrower to pay additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall (at the request of such Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.15, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The applicable Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if any Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.20(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the applicable Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 8.07), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i)the applicable Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 8.07;

(ii)such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.23 from the assignee (to the extent of such

outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower (in the case of all other amounts));

(iii)in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv)such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and

(v)in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the applicable Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.21.[Reserved].

SECTION 2.22.Defaulting Lenders. (a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i)Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.

(ii)Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VI or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 8.05 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as Rayonier may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and Rayonier, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Advances under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event

of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Advances were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the Facility. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.22(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Commitment Fee payable under Section 2.04(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(b)Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the Facility, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of any Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c)Termination of Defaulting Lender. The Borrowers may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.22(a)(ii) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and

(ii) such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim any Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.23.Breakage. The Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Lender against any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its obligations hereunder (but including, for the avoidance of doubt, any loss or expense incurred as result of an assignment and delegation by a Lender under Section 2.20(b) of this Agreement), which results in (a) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Eurodollar Rate Advance or Quoted Rate Advance prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Advance or Quoted Rate Advance to an Alternate Base Rate Advance, or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advance or Quoted Rate Advance, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (c) any Eurodollar Rate Advance or Quoted Rate Advance to be made by such Lender (including any Eurodollar Rate Advance or Quoted Rate Advance to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such Advance shall have been given by any Borrower hereunder (which indemnified amount shall include, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date) (any of these events being called a “Breakage Event”). In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the Eurodollar Rate Advance or Quoted Rate Advance that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Advance over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.23 shall be delivered to Rayonier and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.24.Administrative Agent’s Clawback. (a) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender (x) in the case of Alternate Base Rate Advances, one (1) hour prior to the proposed time of such Borrowing, and (y) otherwise, prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the Borrowers jointly and severally, and the applicable Lenders severally, agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, and (ii) in the case of

a payment to be made by a Borrower, the interest rate at such time applicable to Advances comprising such Borrowing. If a Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the applicable Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance included in such Borrowing. Any such payment by a Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim any Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(b)Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Rayonier prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the applicable Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

withholding consent to such transfer), (A) if the transferring Farm Credit Lender has not delivered a Farm Credit Lender Transfer Certificate (as defined below) to Rayonier, then Rayonier may withhold its consent to such assignment or sale in its sole discretion (and in such case, Rayonier shall be deemed to have acted reasonably), and (B) if the transferring Farm Credit Lender has delivered a Farm Credit Lender Transfer Certificate to Rayonier, then Rayonier may not withhold its consent to such assignment or sale (and any such withholding of consent shall be deemed unreasonable). For purposes hereof, “Farm Credit Lender Transfer Certificate” means a certificate executed by an officer of the transferring Farm Credit Lender and certifying to Rayonier that such transferring Farm Credit Lender has used commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the relevant assignment or sale or a participation with another entity that would be expected to make patronage distributions to the applicable Borroweron a going forward basis that are consistent with (or better than) those that the applicable Borrower could reasonably have expected to have received from such transferring Farm Credit Lender. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, only those entities which have made Borrowings hereunder shall be required to purchase Farm Credit Equities pursuant to this Agreement. Any Advances made to a Borrowershall result in the accrual of patronage refunds or distributions for the benefit of such Borrower, and such patronage refunds or distributions shall be payable directly for the account of such Borrower.

(iii)Each party hereto acknowledges that each Farm Credit Lender has a statutory first lien pursuant to the Farm Credit Act of 1971 (as amended from time to time) on all Farm Credit Equities of such Farm Credit Lender that any Borrower may now own or hereafter acquire, which statutory lien shall be for such Farm Credit Lender’s sole and exclusive benefit. The Farm Credit Equities of a particular Farm Credit Lender shall not constitute security for the Obligations due to any other Lender. To the extent that any of the Loan Documents create a Lien on the Farm Credit Equities of a Farm Credit Lender or on patronage accrued by such Farm Credit Lender for the account of a Borrower(including, in each case, proceeds thereof), such Lien shall be for such Farm Credit Lender’s sole and exclusive benefit and shall not be subject to pro rata sharing hereunder. Neither the Farm Credit Equities nor any accrued patronage shall be offset against the Obligations except that, in the event of an Event of Default, a Farm Credit Lender may elect, solely at its discretion, to apply the cash portion of any patronage distribution or retirement of equity to amounts due under this Agreement. The Borrowers acknowledge that any corresponding tax liability associated with such application is the sole responsibility of such Borrower. No Farm Credit Lender shall have an obligation to retire the Farm Credit Equities of such Farm Credit Lender upon any Event of Default, Default or any other default by the applicable Borroweror any other Loan Party, or at any other time, either for application to the Obligations or otherwise.

ARTICLE VII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 7.01.Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints CoBank to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article VII are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and no Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

SECTION 7.02.Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrowers or any respective Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 7.03.Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The Administrative Agent shall not

have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(i)shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii)shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(iii)shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b)The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 8.01 and 8.03), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by Rayonier or a Lender.

(c)The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 7.04.Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Advance. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 7.05.Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facility as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

SECTION 7.06.Resignation of Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and Rayonier. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers and subject to the Borrowers’ approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a Farm Credit Lender or a bank with an office in the borough of Manhattan in New York City, or an Affiliate of any such Farm Credit Lender or bank with an office in borough of Manhattan in New York City. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b)If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, then the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to Rayonier and such Person remove such

Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrowers and subject to the Borrowers’ approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c)With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrowers, jointly and severally, to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article VII and Section 8.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 7.07.Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 7.08.No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the bookrunners, arrangers, syndication agents or documentation agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

SECTION 7.09.Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative

to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Advance shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Advances and all other obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.04 and 8.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.04 and 8.04.

SECTION 7.10.Guarantee Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion to release either or both of TRS or ROC from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement if TRS or ROC, as the case may be, ceases to be a Subsidiary of Rayonier as a result of a transaction that is permitted under the Loan Documents. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release TRS or ROC, as the case may be, from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.10.

No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in

SECTION 8.03.No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder, under any Note or any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

SECTION 8.04.Costs and Expenses. (a) Costs and Expenses. Each Borrower, jointly and severally, agrees that it shall pay (i) all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the syndication of the Facility, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), and (ii) all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 8.04, or (B) in connection with the Advances made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Advances.

(b)Indemnification by the Borrowers. Each Borrower, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnified Party”) against, and hold each Indemnified Party harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages (including any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages claimed or asserted (x) in breach of Section 8.04(d), or (y) by a Person not a party to this Agreement), liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnified Party), incurred by any Indemnified Party or asserted against any Indemnified Party by any Person other than such Indemnified Party and its Related Parties which arise out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective

obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Advance or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by any Borrower or any Subsidiary of a Borrower, any Environmental Action, or any liability relating to any Environmental Law, Environmental Permit or Hazardous Material that relates in any way to any Borrower or any Subsidiary of a Borrower, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (any of the foregoing, a “Proceeding”) relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnified Party is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnified Party, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, or (y) arising out of, or in connection with, any proceeding that does not involve an act or omission by any Borrower, any Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates and that is brought by an Indemnified Party against another Indemnified Party (other than claims, litigation, investigations or proceedings brought against CoBank in its capacity as Administrative Agent or against any of the financial institutions listed in the recitals to this Agreement in their respective capacities as bookrunners, syndication agents, arrangers, documentation agents or any other similar roles or capacities in respect of the Facility). The Borrowers shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without Rayonier’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if such Proceeding is settled with Rayonier’s written consent, or if there is a judgment against an Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding, then the Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party in the manner set forth above. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Party shall have requested, in accordance with the foregoing, that the Borrowers reimburse such Indemnified Party for legal or other expenses in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any Proceeding for which reimbursement is required pursuant to the terms of this provision, the Borrowers shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without their written consent if (x) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by Rayonier of such request for reimbursement, and (x) the Borrowers shall not have reimbursed such Indemnified Party in accordance with such request for legal or other expenses required to be reimbursed pursuant to the terms of this provision prior to the date of such settlement.

(c)Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under paragraph (a) or (b) of this to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s share of the Total Credit Exposure at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such

Lender); provided that, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity.

(d)Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, but without limiting in any respect the indemnification obligations of any Borrower under clause (b) above, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto (and with respect to the Borrowers, their respective Subsidiaries also), on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance, or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, however that if an Event of Default under Section 6.01(e) shall have occurred and be continuing, then the waiver made by the Indemnified Parties under this clause (d) shall immediately terminate, and shall be of no further force or effect whatsoever. No Indemnified Party referred to in clause (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e)Payments. All amounts due under this Section 8.04 shall be payable promptly after demand therefor.

(f)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.04 shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the obligations hereunder.

SECTION 8.05.Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of set-off, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the

Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set-off. The rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section 8.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

SECTION 8.06.Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each Borrower and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender party to this Agreement as of the Closing Date that such Lender has executed it, and the Closing Date shall have occurred and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each such Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

SECTION 8.07.Successors and Assigns.

(a)Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither any Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section 8.07, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section 8.07, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) of this Section 8.07 (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section 8.07 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b)Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i)Minimum Amounts.

(A)in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Advances at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal

at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section 8.07 in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B)in any case not described in clause (b)(i)(A) of this Section 8.07, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Rayonier otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(ii)Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advance or the Commitment assigned.

(iii)Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section 8.07 and, in addition:

(A)the consent of Rayonier (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that Rayonier shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof and providedfurther that any Borrower’s consent shall not be required during the primary syndication of the Facility; and

(B)the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.

(iv)Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v)No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) any Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of any Borrower, or (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).

(vi)No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person.

(vii)Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Rayonier and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Advances in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recordation thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 8.07, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.12 and 8.03, with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 8.07.

(c)Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower, shall maintain, at its address referred to in Section 8.02(a), a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Rayonier and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d)Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or any Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of any Borrower) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Advances owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 8.04(c) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification, consent or waiver which would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, that affects such Participant. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 8.07; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 8.07. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.05 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender.

(e)Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.12 and 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Rayonier’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the

benefits of Section 2.15 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender.

(f)Voting Participants. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.07 to the contrary, any Farm Credit Lender that (i) is the owner of a participation in a Commitment (including Advances outstanding thereunder) initially in the amount of at least $11,000,000; (ii) is, by written notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (a “Voting Participant Notification”), designated by the selling Lender as being entitled to be accorded the rights of a voting participant hereunder (any Farm Credit Lender so designated being called a “Voting Participant”); and (iii) receives the prior written consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, to become a Voting Participant, shall be entitled to vote for so long as such Farm Credit Lender owns such participation, and notwithstanding any sub-participation by such Farm Credit Lender (and the voting rights of the selling Lender shall be correspondingly reduced), on a Dollar for Dollar basis, as if such Voting Participant were a Lender, on any matter requiring or allowing a Lender to provide or withhold its consent, or to otherwise vote on any proposed action; provided, however, that if such Voting Participant has at any time failed to fund any portion of its participation when required to do so, then until such time as all amounts of its participation required to have been funded have been funded, such Voting Participant shall not be entitled to exercise its voting rights pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.07(f), and the voting rights of the selling Lender shall not be correspondingly reduced by the amount of such Voting Participant’s participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Farm Credit Lender designated as a Voting Participant on Schedule 8.07(f) hereto shall be a Voting Participant without delivery of a Voting Participant Notification and without the prior written consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. To be effective, each Voting Participant Notification shall, with respect to any Voting Participant, (A) state the full name, as well as all contact information required for an assignee in the Assignment and Assumption; and (B) state the Dollar amount of the participation purchased. The selling Lender and the Voting Participant shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers within three (3) Business Days of any termination of, reduction or increase in the amount of, such participation. The Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on information contained in notices delivered pursuant to this Section 8.07(f). The voting rights in this Section 8.07(f) are solely for the benefit of the Voting Participants and shall not inure to any assignee or participant of a Voting Participant that is not itself a Voting Participant.

(g)Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 8.08.Rayonier as Agent. Each of ROC and TRS hereby designates and appoints Rayonier as its representative and agent on its behalf for the purposes of issuing notices and reports, delivering certificates, giving instructions, receiving notices and granting consents

hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or Borrowers under the Loan Documents. Rayonier hereby accepts such appointment.

SECTION 8.09.Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder in which case of the foregoing clauses (b), (c) and (e), the Administrative Agent and each Lender agree (except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority), to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, to inform Rayonier thereof (and in the case of any subpoena or similar legal process or proceeding and to the extent practicable, to inform Rayonier in advance); (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 8.09, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to any Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder; (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating any Borrower or its respective Subsidiaries or the Facility, or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Facility; (h) with the consent of Rayonier; or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.09, or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower.

For purposes of this Section 8.09, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries relating to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Borrower after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential; provided, further, that, in the case of financial information (except to the extent publicly available) received from any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Borrower after the Closing Date, such financial information shall be deemed confidential unless it is identified as “public” or “nonconfidential” information at the time of delivery. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 8.09 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain

the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 8.10.Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. (a) Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

(b)Jurisdiction. Each Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c)Waiver of Venue. Each Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 8.10.

SECTION 8.15.Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT

OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

GUARANTEE AGREEMENT dated as of December 17, 2012 (this “Agreement”), among (a) RAYONIER INC., a North Carolina corporation (“Rayonier”), (b) RAYONIER TRS HOLDINGS INC., a Delaware corporation (“TRS”), (c) RAYONIER OPERATING COMPANY LLC, a Delaware limited liability company(“ROC”; Rayonier, TRS and ROC, each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”), and (d) COBANK, ACB, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) for the Guaranteed Parties (as defined below).

Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of December 17, 2012 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), among Rayonier, TRS and ROC, as borrowers, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

It is a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement that the Guarantors execute and deliver this Agreement.

Each of the Guarantors is a Borrower under (and as defined in) the Credit Agreement and acknowledges that it will derive substantial benefit from the making of the Advances by the Lenders.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Guarantees. Each Guarantor unconditionally guarantees, jointly with each other Guarantor and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, (a) the due and punctual payment by each Borrower (other than itself) of (i) the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including interest accruing during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding) on the Advances made to such Borrower, when and as due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, upon one or more dates set for prepayment or otherwise, and (ii) all other monetary obligations, including fees, costs, expenses and indemnities, whether primary, secondary, direct, contingent, fixed or otherwise (including monetary obligations incurred during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding), of such Borrower to the Administrative Agent and each Lender under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Guaranteed Parties”), whether such amounts shall have accrued prior to, on or after the Closing Date, (b) the due and punctual payment and performance of all covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities of each Borrower (other than itself), monetary or otherwise, under or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (c) the due and punctual payment and performance of all obligations of each Borrower (other than itself), monetary or otherwise, under each Interest Rate Agreement in effect on the Closing Date to which any Lender (or an Affiliate of a Lender) is a party and each Interest Rate Agreement entered into after the Closing Date with any counterparty that is a Lender (or an Affiliate of a Lender) at the time such Interest Rate Agreement is entered into (all the monetary and other obligations referred to in the preceding clauses (a) through (c) being collectively called the “Obligations”).

Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of TRS and ROC hereunder, shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the greatest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under

Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any provisions of applicable law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of TRS and ROC contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer Laws and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar rights of TRS and ROC, as the case may be, pursuant to (i) applicable law, or (ii) any agreement providing for an equitable allocation among TRS or ROC, as the case may be, and other Affiliates of Rayonier of obligations arising under Guarantees by such parties.

Each Guarantor further agrees that the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.

Obligations Not Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the applicable Borrower and any other guarantor of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by, and each Guarantor hereby waives any defense arising by reason of, (a) the failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise any right or remedy against the applicable Borrower or any other guarantor under the provisions of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, (b) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Guarantee or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement, or (c) the failure to take or perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any collateral security held by or on behalf of any Guaranteed Party.

Guarantee of Payment. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guarantee constitutes a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party to any collateral security held for payment of the Obligations or any balance of any deposit or other account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party in favor of the applicable Borrower or any other person.

No Discharge or Diminishment of Guarantee. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the applicable Borrower’s Obligations except contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations, which pursuant to Section 8.04(f) of the Credit Agreement shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and the payment in full of all obligations referred to in such Section 8.04(f)), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the applicable Borrower’s Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of such Obligations, any law or regulation of any jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of an Obligation or any other circumstance that might constitute a defense of the applicable Borrower or any Guarantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the applicable Borrower’s Obligations, or by any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of each Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full

in cash of all of the applicable Borrower’s Obligations), and each Guarantor hereby waives any defense arising by reason of any of the foregoing actions.

Defenses of Borrower Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the applicable Borrower or the unenforceability of the applicable Borrower’s Obligations or any part thereof from any cause or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the applicable Borrower (other than the final and indefeasible payment in full in cash of such Borrower’s Obligations except contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations, which pursuant to Section 8.04(f) of the Credit Agreement shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and the payment in full of all obligations referred to in such Section 8.04(f)). The Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any collateral security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such collateral security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the applicable Borrower’s Obligations, make any other accommodation with the applicable Borrower or any other guarantor or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the applicable Borrower or any other guarantor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the applicable Borrower’s Obligations have been fully, finally and indefeasibly paid in cash. Pursuant to applicable law, each of the Guarantors waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the applicable Borrower, any other Guarantor or guarantor, as the case may be, or any collateral security.

Agreement to Pay; Subordination. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, each Guarantor hereby agrees that, upon the failure of any Borrower (other than itself) to pay any of its Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, such Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent or such other Guaranteed Party as designated thereby in cash the amount of such unpaid Obligations. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent or any Guaranteed Party as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the applicable Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the respective Borrower’s Obligations. In addition, any indebtedness of any Borrower now or hereafter held by any Guarantor is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Obligations during the existence of an Event of Default. If any amount shall erroneously be paid to any Guarantor on account of (i) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar right, or (ii) any such indebtedness of any Borrower, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited against the payment of the applicable Borrower’s Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

Information. Each of the Guarantors assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each applicable Borrower’s financial condition and assets, all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of such Borrower’s Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent or the other Guaranteed Parties will have any duty to advise any of the Guarantors of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

Representations and Warranties; Taxes. Each of the Guarantors represents and warrants as to itself that all representations and warranties relating to it contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects except for representations and warranties which by their terms refer to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date) and except for representations and warranties which are qualified by materiality (in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct). Each Guarantor agrees that the provisions of Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement shall apply equally to each Guarantor with respect to the payments made by it hereunder.

Termination. The Guarantees made hereunder (a) shall terminate when all the Obligations except contingent indemnification and reimbursement obligations, which pursuant to Section 8.04(f) of the Credit Agreement shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and the payment in full of all obligations referred to in such Section 8.04(f), have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Lenders have no further commitment to lend under the Credit Agreement, and (b) shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Guaranteed Party or any Guarantor upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or any Guarantor or otherwise.

Binding Effect; Several Agreement; Assignments. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Guarantors that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Guarantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Guarantor shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter this Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of such Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Guarantor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (except in connection with any transaction permitted by Section 5.03(c) or Section 5.03(d) of the Credit Agreement) (and any such attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Guarantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Guarantor without the approval of any other Guarantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Guarantor hereunder.

Waivers; Amendment. 1) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder and of the other Guaranteed Parties under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to a written agreement entered into between the Guarantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification relates and the Administrative Agent, with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders (except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement).

Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement.

Survival of Agreement; Severability. 1) All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Guarantors herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Parties and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Advances regardless of any investigation made by the Guaranteed Parties or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Advance or any other fee or amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or the Commitments have not been terminated.

In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 10. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Rules of Interpretation. The rules of interpretation specified in Article I of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable to this Agreement.

Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. 1) Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Guaranteed Party, or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Guaranteed Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding

relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Guarantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in clause (a) of Section 17 of this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process at the address provided for notices in Section 13. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 18.

Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Guaranteed Party is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Guaranteed Party or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all of the obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Guaranteed Party or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Guaranteed Party or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Guarantor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Guarantor different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Guaranteed Party and their respective Affiliates under this Section 19 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Guaranteed Party or their respective Affiliates may have.

To the Administrative Agent

referred to below:

I, the undersigned, the Chief Financial Officer of Rayonier Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Rayonier”), in that capacity only and not in my individual capacity (and without personal liability), do hereby certify as of the date hereof, and based upon facts and circumstances as they exist as of the date hereof (and disclaiming any responsibility for changes in such facts and circumstances after the date hereof), that:

1.This certificate is furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.01(f) of the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 17, 2012, among RAYONIER, RAYONIER TRS HOLDINGS INC., a Delaware corporation (“TRS”), and RAYONIER OPERATING COMPANY LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ROC”; each of Rayonier, TRS and ROC being referred to herein individually as a “Borrower”, and collectively as the “Borrowers”), the Lenders from time to time party thereto, COBANK, ACB (“CoBank”), as administrative agent on behalf of the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), COBANK, as Sole Bookrunner, and COBANK and FARM CREDIT EAST, as Joint Lead Arrangers (the “Credit Agreement”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this certificate shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

For purposes of this certificate, the terms below shall have the following definitions:

“Fair Value”

The amount at which the aggregate assets of Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, goodwill) would change hands between an independent willing buyer and an independent willing seller, within a commercially reasonable period of time, each having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts and neither being under any compulsion to act.

“Present Fair Salable Value”

The amount that may be realized by an independent willing seller from an independent willing buyer if Rayonier’s and Rayonier’s consolidated Subsidiaries’ aggregate assets (including, without limitation, goodwill) are sold with reasonable promptness in an arm’s-length transaction under present conditions for the sale of assets of the business comprising such entity in an existing and not theoretical market.

“Stated Liabilities”

The aggregate recorded liabilities (including contingent liabilities that would be recorded as liabilities in accordance with GAAP) of Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries, as of the date hereof after giving effect to the extension of the Advances contemplated by the Credit Agreement, determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied.

“Identified Contingent Liabilities”

The reasonably estimated liabilities of Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries that may result from, without limitation, threatened or pending litigation, asserted claims and assessments, environmental conditions, guaranties, indemnities, contract obligations, uninsured risks, purchase obligations, taxes, and other contingent liabilities of Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries, as identified and explained in terms of their nature and estimated dollar amount by responsible officers of Rayonier.

“Does Not Have Unreasonably Small Capital”

This phrase relates to the ability of Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries to continue as a going concern and not lack sufficient capital for the businesses in which it is engaged, and will be engaged, as management has indicated such businesses are now conducted and are proposed to be conducted.

“New Financing”

New indebtedness incurred, assumed or guaranteed by Rayonier, TRS and ROC pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

3.For purposes of this certificate, I, or officers of Rayonier under my direction and supervision, have performed the following procedures as of and for the periods set forth below:

(b)I have reviewed the financial statements (including the pro forma financial statements) referred to in Section 5.01(k)(i) and (ii) of the Credit Agreement;

(c)I have knowledge of and have reviewed to my satisfaction the Credit Agreement;

(d)As the Chief Financial Officer of Rayonier, I am familiar with the financial condition of Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries; and

(e)I have made such other investigations and inquiries as I have deemed appropriate, having taken into account the nature of the particular business anticipated to be conducted by Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries after the extension of credit contemplated by the Credit Agreement.

4.Based on the foregoing, I hereby certify on behalf of Rayonier that, before and after giving effect to the extension of any Advances contemplated by the Credit Agreement on the date hereof, (i) the Fair Value and the Present Fair Saleable Value of the aggregate assets of Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries exceed the sum of the liabilities of Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, all Stated Liabilities, and all Identified Contingent Liabilities); (ii) Rayonier (together with its consolidated Subsidiaries), Does Not Have Unreasonably Small Capital; (iii) Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries have sufficient assets and cash flow to pay their liabilities (including, without limitation, the Stated Liabilities and the Identified Contingent Liabilities), as such liabilities mature or otherwise become absolute or due; and (iv) Rayonier and its consolidated Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are “solvent” within the meaning given to that term and similar terms under any United States federal or state laws relating to fraudulent transfers and conveyances.

No Borrower intend, in consummating the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement, to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors or any other Person to which any Borrower is, or will become on or after the date hereof, indebted.
