(a) Forestry rights grant access to the leased land for the purpose of harvesting. The majority of the JV’s forestry rights terminate with the harvest of the land’s existing crop and require the land to be left in the cut condition upon termination.

(b) Forest leases have an average term between 30 and 99 years. Annual rent is indexed to the Consumer Price Index or current market values. A number of these leases require the land to be returned in a fully stocked condition (replanted).
