As previously announced, on November 6, 2015, Plum Creek Timber Company, Inc. (“we” or “Plum Creek”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Weyerhaeuser Company, a Washington corporation (“Weyerhaeuser”). On or about January 5, 2016, we commenced mailing to our stockholders a joint proxy statement/prospectus dated December 28, 2015 (the “joint proxy statement/prospectus”) relating to the special meeting of stockholders of Plum Creek scheduled to be held at the Washington Athletic Club, located at 1325 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, Washington 98101, on February 12, 2016, at 10:00 a.m., local time (the “special meeting”). Plum Creek has decided to make certain additional disclosures and will be filing supplemental proxy materials relating to the joint proxy statement/prospectus for the special meeting of stockholders of Plum Creek.

This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Some of these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “strategy,” or “anticipates,” or the negative of those words or other comparable terminology.

The accuracy of such statements is subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions including, but are not limited to, the following factors: (1) the risk that the conditions to the closing of the transaction are not satisfied, including the risk that required approvals from the shareholders of Weyerhaeuser or Plum Creek for the transaction are not obtained; (2) litigation relating to the transaction; (3) uncertainties as to the timing of the consummation of the transaction and the ability of each party to consummate the transaction; (4) risks that the proposed transaction disrupts the current plans and operations of Weyerhaeuser or Plum Creek; (5) the ability of Weyerhaeuser and Plum Creek to retain and hire key personnel; (6) competitive responses to the proposed transaction; (7) unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the transaction; (8) potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the transaction; (9) the combined companies’ ability to achieve the growth prospects and synergies expected from the transaction, as well as delays, challenges and expenses associated with integrating the combined companies’ existing businesses; and (10) legislative, regulatory and economic developments. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed transaction, are more fully discussed in the joint proxy statement/prospectus that is included in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 that has been filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed transaction.

In addition, actual results are subject to other risks and uncertainties that relate more broadly to Plum Creek’s overall business, including those more fully described in Plum Creek’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) including its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, and its quarterly reports filed on Form 10-Q for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, and Weyerhaeuser’s overall business and financial condition, including those more fully described in Weyerhaeuser’s filings with the SEC including its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, and its quarterly reports filed on Form 10-Q for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. Forward looking statements are not guarantees of performance, and speak only as of the date made, and neither Plum Creek nor its management undertakes any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.

This document does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote or approval nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. Weyerhaeuser filed with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-4 that includes a joint proxy statement/prospectus of Plum Creek and Weyerhaeuser. Each of Plum Creek and Weyerhaeuser have mailed the joint proxy statement/prospectus to their respective shareholders. The Registration Statement on Form S-4 was
