Recent Accounting Pronouncements | DOMTAR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2017 (IN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED (UNAUDITED) NOTE 2. _________________ RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS ACCOUNTING CHANGES IMPLEMENTED INVENTORY In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2015-11, “ Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2017 with no impact on the consolidated financial statements. SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “ Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2017 with no significant impact on the consolidated financial statements. FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted only for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Entities are permitted to adopt the new revenue standard by restating all prior periods under the full retrospective approach following ASC 250 “ Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” The Company is assessing the impact that the guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company currently expects to adopt the new revenue standards in its first quarter of 2018 utilizing the modified retrospective transition method. Further, the Company expects to identify similar performance obligations under the new guidance as compared with deliverables previously identified. As a result, the Company expects the timing of its revenue to remain substantially the same. While the Company is still evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard, it does not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated earnings. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “ Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017.

Upon adoption of the new guidance, the Company will be required to record substantially all leases on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The timing of expense recognition and classification in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income could change based on the classification of leases as either operating or financing. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities and Fair Value Measurement | DOMTAR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2017 (IN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED (UNAUDITED) NOTE 3. _________________ DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT HEDGING PROGRAMS The Company is exposed to market risk, such as changes in currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and interest rates. To the extent the Company decides to manage the volatility related to these exposures, the Company may enter into various financial derivatives that are accounted for under the derivatives and hedging guidance. These transactions are governed by the Company's hedging policies which provide direction on acceptable hedging activities, including instrument type and acceptable counterparty exposure. Upon inception, the Company formally documents the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items. At inception and quarterly thereafter, the Company formally assesses whether the financial instruments used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in either the cash flow or the fair value of the underlying exposures. The ineffective portion of the qualifying instrument is immediately recognized to earnings. The amount of ineffectiveness recognized was immaterial for all periods presented. The Company does not hold derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. CREDIT RISK The Company is exposed to credit risk on the accounts receivable from its customers. In order to reduce this risk, the Company reviews new customers’ credit history before granting credit and conducts regular reviews of existing customers’ credit performance. As of March 31, 2017, one of Domtar’s Pulp and Paper segment customers located in the U.S. represented 13% or $85 million (2016 – 12% or $74 million) of the Company’s receivables. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties to its financial instruments. The Company attempts to minimize this exposure by entering into contracts with counterparties that are believed to be of high credit quality. Collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk is usually not obtained. The credit standing of counterparties is regularly monitored. INTEREST RATE RISK The Company is exposed to interest rate risk arising from fluctuations in interest rates on its cash and cash equivalents, bank indebtedness, revolving credit facility and long-term debt. The Company’s objective in managing exposure to interest rate changes is to minimize the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs. The Company may manage this interest rate exposure through the use of derivative instruments such as interest rate swap contracts, whereby it agrees to exchange the difference between fixed and variable interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed upon notional principal amount. COST RISK Cash flow hedges: The Company is exposed to price volatility for raw materials and energy used in its manufacturing process. The Company manages its exposure to cost risk primarily through the use of supplier contracts. The Company purchases natural gas at the prevailing market price at the time of delivery. To reduce the impact on cash flow and earnings due to pricing volatility, the Company may utilize derivatives to fix the price of forecasted natural gas purchases. The changes in the fair value on qualifying instruments are included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss to the extent effective, and reclassified into Cost of sales in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Current contracts are used to hedge a portion of forecasted purchases over the next 60 months. The following table presents the volumes under derivative financial instruments for natural gas contracts outstanding as of March 31, 2017 to hedge forecasted purchases: Commodity Notional contractual quantity under derivative contracts MMBTU (3) Notional contractual value under derivative contracts (in millions of dollars) Percentage of forecasted purchases under derivative contracts Natural Gas 2017 (1) 6,205,000 $ 20 35% 2018 10,485,000 $ 31 41% 2019 9,175,000 $ 27 36% 2020 5,750,000 $ 18 23% 2021 3,920,000 $ 12 15% 2022 (2) 1,185,000 $ 4 16% (1) Represents the remaining nine months of 2017 (2) Represents the first three months of 2022 (3) MMBTU: Millions of British thermal units The natural gas derivative contracts were fully effective as of March 31, 2017. There were no amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 resulting from hedge ineffectiveness (three months ended March 31, 2016 – nil). FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK Cash flow hedges: The Company has manufacturing operations in the United States, Canada and Europe. As a result, it is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates in Canada and Europe. Moreover, certain assets and liabilities are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and are exposed to foreign currency movements. Accordingly, the Company’s earnings are affected by increases or decreases in the value of the Canadian dollar and the European currencies. The Company’s European subsidiaries are also exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in a currency other than their Euro functional currency. The Company’s risk management policy allows it to hedge a significant portion of its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for periods up to three years. The Company may use derivative financial instruments (currency options and foreign exchange forward contracts) to mitigate its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Derivatives are used to hedge forecasted purchases in Canadian dollars by the Company’s Canadian subsidiary over the next 24 months. Derivatives are currently used to hedge a portion of forecasted sales by its U.S. subsidiaries in Euros and in British pounds over a period of between 3 to 9 months. Derivatives are also currently used to hedge a portion of forecasted sales in British pounds and Norwegian krone and a portion of forecasted purchases in U.S. dollars and Swedish krona by its European subsidiaries over a period of between 12 to 15 months. Such derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges. The changes in the fair value on qualifying instruments are included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss to the extent effective, and reclassified into Sales or Cost of sales in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The following table presents the currency values under significant currency positions pursuant to currency derivatives outstanding as of March 31, 2017 to hedge forecasted purchases and sales: Currency exposure hedged Business Segment Year of maturity Notional contractual value Percentage of forecasted net exposures under contracts Average Protection rate Average Obligation rate 2017 (1) CDN/USD Pulp and Paper 380 CDN 65% 1 USD = 1.3058 1 USD = 1.3580 USD/Euro Personal Care 41 USD 82% 1 Euro = 1.1394 1 Euro = 1.1394 Euro/USD Pulp and Paper 9 EUR 12% 1 Euro = 1.1389 1 Euro = 1.1389 2018 CDN/USD Pulp and Paper 280 CDN 36% 1 USD = 1.2933 1 USD = 1.3507 USD/Euro Personal Care 19 USD 29% 1 Euro = 1.1307 1 Euro = 1.1307 2019 CDN/USD Pulp and Paper 48 CDN 6% 1 USD = 1.2743 1 USD = 1.3401 (1) Represents the remaining nine months of 2017 The foreign exchange derivative contracts were fully effective as of March 31, 2017. There were no amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 resulting from hedge ineffectiveness (three months ended March 31, 2016 – nil). FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT The accounting standards for fair value measurements and disclosures, establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The following tables present information about the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (except Long-term debt, see (b) below) at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, in accordance with the accounting standards for fair value measurements and disclosures and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value.

The net cumulative gain recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss relating to currency options and forwards hedging forecasted purchases of $8 million at March 31, 2017, will be recognized in Cost of sales or Sales upon maturity of the derivatives over the next 12 months at the then prevailing values, which may be different from those at March 31, 2017.

Interest rates, forward market rates and volatility are used as inputs for such valuation techniques. - For natural gas contracts: Fair value is measured using the discounted difference between contractual rates and quoted market future rates. (b) Fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is measured by comparison to market prices of its debt. The Company’s long-term debt is not carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. However, fair value disclosure is required. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt is $1,252 million and $1,281 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, bank indebtedness, trade and other payables and income and other taxes approximate their fair values. |

Income Taxes | NOTE 7. _________________ INCOME TAXES For the first quarter of 2017, the Company’s income tax expense was $5 million, consisting of $9 million of current income tax expense and a deferred income tax benefit of $4 million. This compares to an income tax benefit of $3 million in the first quarter of 2016, consisting of no current income tax expense and a deferred income tax benefit of $3 million. The Company received income tax refunds, net of payments, of $8 million during the first quarter of 2017. The effective tax rate was 20% compared with an effective tax rate of -300% in the first quarter of 2016. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2017 was favorably impacted by the recognition of $1 million of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to a statute expiration in a foreign jurisdiction and a U.S. state tax audit finalization. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2016 was impacted by the approval of a state tax credit in the U.S. |

The Company also invested in a pulp bale line that will provide flexibility to manufacture papergrade softwood pulp, contingent on market conditions. The conversion work commenced during the second quarter of 2016 and the production of bale softwood pulp began in the third quarter of 2016. The fluff qualification period began in the fourth quarter of 2016. The fluff pulp line will allow for the production of up to 516,000 metric tons of fluff pulp per year once the machine is in full operation. The project resulted in the permanent reduction of 364,000 short tons of annual uncoated freesheet production capacity on March 31, 2016. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company recorded $21 million of accelerated depreciation under Impairment of property, plant and equipment on the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. The Company also recorded $1 million of severance and termination costs under Closure and restructuring costs. Other costs During the first quarter of 2016, other costs related to previous and ongoing closures include $1 million of severance and termination costs related to Pulp and Paper. |

Shareholders' Equity | NOTE 13. _________________ SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY On February 21, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.415 per share to be paid to holders of the Company’s common stock. Total dividends of approximately $26 million were paid on April 17, 2017 to shareholders of record on April 3, 2017. On May 3, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.415 per share to be paid to holders of the Company’s common stock. This dividend is to be paid on July 17, 2017, to shareholders of record on July 3, 2017. STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program (the “Program”) of up to $1.3 billion. Under the Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase from time to time shares of its outstanding common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of stock repurchases will depend on a variety of factors, including the market conditions as well as corporate and regulatory considerations. The Program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time and the Company has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock under the Program. The Program has no set expiration date. The Company repurchases its common stock, from time to time, in part to reduce the dilutive effects of stock options and awards, and to improve shareholders’ returns. The Company makes open market purchases of its common stock using general corporate funds. Additionally, the Company may enter into structured stock repurchase agreements with large financial institutions using general corporate funds in order to lower the average cost to acquire shares. The agreements would require the Company to make up-front payments to the counterparty financial institutions which would result in either the receipt of stock at the beginning of the term of the agreements followed by a share adjustment at the maturity of the agreements, or the receipt of either stock or cash at the maturity of the agreements, depending upon the price of the stock. During the first quarter of 2017, there were no shares repurchased under the Program. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company repurchased 304,915 shares at an average price of $32.21 for a total cost of $10 million. Since the inception of the Program, the Company has repurchased 24,853,827 shares at an average price of $39.33 for a total cost of $977 million. All shares repurchased are recorded as Treasury stock on the Consolidated Balance Sheets under the par value method at $0.01 per share. |

Commitments and Contingencies | DOMTAR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2017 (IN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED (UNAUDITED) NOTE 14. _________________ COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES ENVIRONMENT MATTERS The Company is subject to environmental laws and regulations enacted by federal, provincial, state and local authorities. On February 16, 2010, the government of British Columbia issued a Remediation Order to Seaspan International Ltd. (“Seaspan”) and the Company, in order to define and implement an action plan to address soil, sediment and groundwater issues. Working with authorities, Seaspan and the Company selected a remedial plan and obtained permitting approval on May 14, 2015 from the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority. Construction began in January 2017. The Company has previously recorded an environmental reserve to address its estimated exposure. The possible cost in excess of the reserve is not considered to be material for this matter. The following table reflects changes in the reserve for environmental remediation and asset retirement obligations: March 31, 2017 $ Balance at beginning of year 50 Additions 1 Environmental spending (2 ) Effect of foreign currency exchange rate change — Balance at end of period 49 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and/or various state agencies have notified the Company that it may be a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, commonly known as “Superfund,” and similar state laws with respect to other hazardous waste sites as to which no proceedings have been instituted against the Company. The Company continues to take remedial action under its Care and Control Program at its former wood preserving sites, and at a number of operating sites due to possible soil, sediment or groundwater contamination. Climate change regulation Various national and local laws and regulations have been established or are emerging in jurisdictions where the Company currently has, or may have in the future, manufacturing facilities or investments. The Company does not expect to be disproportionately affected by these measures compared with other pulp and paper producers located in these jurisdictions. In the United States, EPA’s Clean Power Plan requires states to develop compliance plans to reduce greenhouse gases (“GHG”) emissions beginning in 2022 from existing electric utilities. The Clean Power Plan requirements could result in significant changes to state energy resources and increase the cost of purchased energy in most states. The final rule is being litigated and on February 9, 2016, the U.S. Supreme Court stayed the implementation of the Clean Power Plan until the litigation is resolved. Oral argument was held before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on September 27, 2016, and a final decision is expected within months, although subsequent appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court are possible, and President Trump issued an Executive Order on March 28, 2017, directing his Administration to review and then suspend, revise, or rescind the Clean Power Plan, as appropriate and consistent with law. The Company does not expect to be disproportionately affected compared with other pulp and paper producers located in the states where the Company operates. The Government of Canada is reviewing national policies to further GHG reductions and has announced its intent to impose a cost on carbon emissions. The Company does not expect its facilities to be disproportionately affected by these measures compared with other pulp and paper producers in Canada. The province of Quebec has a GHG cap-and-trade system with reduction targets. British Columbia has a carbon tax that applies to the purchase of fossil fuels within the province. The province of Ontario has finalized a cap-and-trade program with the first compliance period beginning January 1, 2017 through 2020. The Company does not expect to be disproportionately affected compared to the other pulp and paper producers located in these provinces. CONTINGENCIES In the normal course of operations, the Company becomes involved in various legal actions mostly related to contract disputes, patent infringements, environmental and product warranty claims, and labor issues. While the final outcome with respect to actions outstanding or pending at March 31, 2017, cannot be predicted with certainty, it is management’s opinion that their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Spanish Competition Investigation On October 15, 2015, the Competition Directorate of Spain’s National Commission of Markets and Competition (“CNMC”) filed a Statement of Objections against a number of industry participants alleging the existence of a series of agreements between manufacturers, distributors and pharmacists to fix prices and to allocate margins for heavy adult incontinence products within the pharmacy channel On January 4, 2016, the Competition Directorate issued a proposed decision confirming the allegations of the Statement of Objections. The proposed decision recommended the imposition of fines on the parties without recommending the amount of any fines. The Company recorded a €0.2 million ($0.2 million) provision in the fourth quarter of 2015 in Other operating (income) loss, net. On May 26, 2016, the CNMC rendered its final decision, which declared that a number of manufacturers of heavy adult incontinence products, the sector association and certain individuals participated in price fixing during the period from December 1996 through January 2014. Indas and one of its subsidiaries were fined a total of €13.5 million ($14.9 million) for their participation. A provision was recorded in the second quarter of 2016 in the amount of €13.3 million ($14.7 million) in Other operating (income) loss, net. The sellers of Indas made representations and warranties to the Company in the purchase agreement regarding, among other things, Indas’ and its subsidiary’s compliance with competition laws. The liability retained by the sellers was backed by a retained purchase price of €3 million ($3.3 million) and bank guarantees of €9 million ($9.9 million). On June 27, 2016, in light of the CNMC decision, the sellers, in terms of their indemnity obligations, agreed to the appropriation by the Company of the retained purchase price and the release of the bank guarantees. Accordingly, a recovery of €12 million ($13.2 million) was recorded in the second quarter of 2016 and included in Other operating (income) loss, net. In July 2016, the fines were paid and Indas and two of its affiliates named in the final decision appealed the decision to the Spanish courts. The Company purchased limited insurance coverage with respect to the purchase agreement, and is seeking to recover the remaining €1.5 million ($1.7 million) under the insurance policy. Any recovery from the insurers would be recorded in the period when the proceeds are received. INDEMNIFICATIONS In the normal course of business, the Company offers indemnifications relating to the sale of its businesses and real estate. In general, these indemnifications may relate to claims from past business operations, the failure to abide by covenants and the breach of representations and warranties included in the sales agreements. Typically, such representations and warranties relate to taxation, environmental, product and employee matters. The terms of these indemnification agreements are generally for an unlimited period of time. At March 31, 2017, the Company is unable to estimate the potential maximum liabilities for these types of indemnification guarantees as the amounts are contingent upon the outcome of future events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, no provision has been recorded. These indemnifications have not yielded a significant expense in the past. Pension Plans The Company has indemnified and held harmless the trustees of its pension funds, and the respective officers, directors, employees and agents of such trustees, from any and all costs and expenses arising out of the performance of their obligations under the relevant trust agreements, including in respect of their reliance on authorized instructions from the Company or for failing to act in the absence of authorized instructions. These indemnifications survive the termination of such agreements. At March 31, 2017 the Company has not recorded a liability associated with these indemnifications, as it does not expect to make any payments pertaining to these indemnifications. |
