Included in the 7million acres are about 1.35million acres of higher value timberlands, which are expected to be sold and/or developed over the next fifteen years for recreational, conservation or residential purposes. In addition, the company has approximately 250,000 acres of non-strategic timberlands, which are expected to be sold over the next five years. In the meantime, all of our timberlands continue to be managed productively in our business of growing and selling timber. Basis of Presentation. The consolidated financial statements of the company include the accounts of Plum Creek Timber Company, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. All transactions are denominated in United States dollars. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Customer Concentrations. Revenues from the companys largest customer accounted for 7%, 8% and 9% of total revenues in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. If adverse market conditions for wood products were to continue or worsen, the loss of this customer could have a significant effect on the companys results of operations. Product Concentrations. Sales of the companys timber and wood products are dependent upon the economic conditions of the housing, repair and remodeling, industrial, and pulp and paper industries. Sales of the companys timberlands are dependent upon the general economic conditions in the United States, interest rates and the availability of buyer financing from financial institutions, not-for-profit organizations and government sources. As a result of these product concentrations, continued or worsening conditions in these markets could have a significant impact on the companys results of operations. Revenue Recognition. Timber sales revenues are recognized when legal ownership and the risk of loss transfers to the purchaser and the quantity sold is determinable. The company sells timber under delivered log agreements as well as through sales of standing timber (or stumpage). For delivered sales, revenue, which includes amounts billed for shipping and handling (log |

No operating income was recognized in the transaction as the book value of the timberlands disposed approximated the exchange value of $25 million. Timberland dispositions during 2009, excluding the non-cash exchange, were approximately 297,000 acres, of which 248,000 acres were located in the Northern Resources Segment and 49,000 acres were located in the Southern Resources Segment. Included in the 248,000 acres of Northern Resources timberland dispositions are approximately 112,000 acres sold in Montana for proceeds of $250 million and operating income of $162 million from the second phase of a multi-period contract. During 2008, the company negotiated the sale of 310,000 acres in Montana for $489 million, to be closed in three phases. For the year ended December31, 2008, the Real Estate Segment includes revenue of $150 million and operating income of $74 million related to the closing of the first phase. The third and final phase is expected to close in 2010. In connection with this transaction, we also entered into a fiber supply agreement for these timberlands (for up to 15 years) at market-based prices to supply our manufacturing facilities. During 2008, Plum Creek acquired approximately 147,000 acres of timberlands primarily located in Georgia, Vermont and Oregon for $119 million. These purchases were financed primarily by using the funds from tax-deferred exchanges and our line of credit, and have been accounted for as asset acquisitions. Timberland dispositions during 2008 were approximately 314,000 acres, of which 223,000 acres were located in the Northern Resources Segment and 91,000 acres were located in the Southern Resources Segment. Included in the 223,000 acres of Northern Resources timberland dispositions is approximately 130,000 acres sold in Montana during 2008 for proceeds of $150 million which is part of the 310,000 acre multi-period contract.

PLUM CREEK TIMBER CO INC | |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES Plum Creek has elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the United States Internal Revenue Code. A REIT generally does not pay corporate-level income tax if it distributes 100% of its taxable income to shareholders and satisfies other organizational and operational requirements as set forth in the Internal Revenue Code. If a company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Plum Creek operates as a REIT through various wholly-owned subsidiaries and a joint venture partnership. The activities of the operating partnerships and joint venture partnership consist primarily of sales of standing timber under pay-as-cut sales contracts. The book basis of the REITs assets and liabilities exceeds its tax basis by approximately $2.0 billion at December31, 2009. Plum Creek conducts certain activities through various wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries, which are subject to corporate-level income tax. These activities include the companys manufacturing operations, the harvesting and sale of logs, and the development and/or sale of some of the companys higher and better use timberlands. Plum Creeks wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. As a consequence of the October6, 2001 merger with The Timber Company, which involved merging a taxable entity into a nontaxable entity, Plum Creek has generally been subject to corporate-level tax (built-in gains tax) when the company makes a taxable disposition of certain property acquired in the merger. The built-in gains tax applies to gains recognized within the ten-year period following the merger date from such asset sales to the extent that the fair value of the property exceeds its tax basis at the merger date. Built-in gains tax is generally not payable on dispositions of property to the extent the proceeds from such dispositions are reinvested in qualifying like-kind replacement property. The built-in gains tax does not apply to income generated from the sale of timber. Following the merger with The Timber Company, Plum Creek wrote-off all of The Timber Companys deferred income tax liability related to timber and timberlands except for $11 million. The $11 million deferred income tax liability related to the book-tax basis difference of timber and timberlands that were expected to be sold, and subject to, the built-in gains tax during the ten-year period ending October6, 2011. Prior to January1, 2009, the $11 million deferred income tax liability was reduced by $5 million due to a remeasurement of the amount of deferred income taxes needed and by $2 million due to the payment or accrual of tax in connection with sales of timberlands subject to the built-in gains tax. In connection with the enactment of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, deferred taxes associated with timber and timberlands were reduced by an additional $3 million, resulting in the recognition of a $3 million deferred income tax benef |
PLUM CREEK TIMBERLANDS L P | |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 5. INCOME TAXES Plum Creek Timberlands, L.P. is a wholly-owned limited partnership and therefore, not subject to income tax. Plum Creek Timberlands, L.P.s taxable income is allocated 100% to its parent, Plum Creek Timber Company, Inc., which has elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the United States Internal Revenue Code. A REIT generally does not pay corporate-level income tax if it distributes 100% of its taxable income to shareholders and satisfies other organizational and operational requirements as set forth in the Internal Revenue Code. However, the Operating Partnership conducts certain non-REIT activities through various wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries, which are subject to corporate-level income tax. These activities include our manufacturing operations, the harvesting and sale of logs, and the development and/or sale of some higher and better use timberlands. The Operating Partnerships tax provision includes the tax expense and/or benefit associated with Plum Creeks wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries, as well as any tax expense and/or benefit incurred by the REIT. The effective tax rate for the Operating Partnership is lower than the federal corporate statutory rate primarily due to Plum Creeks status as a REIT. If Plum Creek fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. The book basis of Plum Creeks assets and liabilities exceeds its tax basis by approximately $2.0 billion at December31, 2009. Plum Creeks wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Contingencies. The company is subject to regulations regarding forest and harvest practices and is, from time to time, involved in various legal proceedings, including environmental and regulatory matters, incidental to its business. Reserves have been established for any probable losses. Environmental Contingencies. In connection with the October6, 2001 merger with The Timber Company, Plum Creek agreed to indemnify Georgia-Pacific for substantially all of the liabilities attributed to The Timber Company. During 2003, Georgia-Pacific provided Plum Creek with information about the existence of mine tailings and acidic surface water on approximately 90 acres in Hot Spring County, Arkansas, on former Georgia-Pacific properties. Barite mining and related activities were conducted on the site between 1939 and 1981 in part by lessees of an entity that was acquired by Georgia-Pacific. The company believes that it has strong defenses in the matter. Furthermore, to the extent Plum Creek is required to indemnify Georgia-Pacific for its share of the remediation costs, Plum Creek may be able to recover all or a portion of its cost from Georgia-Pacifics insurance policy, or indemnity obligations of the various lessees that conducted mining operations on the property, or both.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Contingencies. The Operating Partnership is subject to regulations regarding forest and harvest practices and is, from time to time, involved in various legal proceedings, including environmental and regulatory matters, incidental to its business. Reserves have been established for any probable losses. Environmental Contingencies. In connection with the October6, 2001 merger with The Timber Company, Plum Creek agreed to indemnify Georgia-Pacific for substantially all of the liabilities attributed to The Timber Company. During 2003, Georgia-Pacific provided Plum Creek with information about the existence of mine tailings and acidic surface water on approximately 90 acres in Hot Spring County, Arkansas, on former Georgia-Pacific properties. Barite mining and related activities were conducted on the site between 1939 and 1981 in part by lessees of an entity that was acquired by Georgia-Pacific. The Operating Partnership believes that it has strong defenses in the matter. Furthermore, to the extent the Operating Partnership is required to indemnify Georgia-Pacific for its share of the remediation costs, the Operating Partnership may be able to recover all or a portion of its cost from Georgia-Pacifics insurance policy, or indemnity obligations of the various lessees that conducted mining operations on the property, or both. The Operating Partnership believes it will be successful in defending the claim. If the Operating Partnership is not successful in defending this claim, we believe that any loss would not be material to our financial position or results of operations. Unrecorded Contingencies. Management currently believes that resolving other pending legal proceedings against the Operating Partnership, individually or in aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations.

TIMBERLAND VENTURE-EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT | NOTE 16. TIMBERLAND VENTUREEQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT On October1, 2008, the company contributed 454,000 acres of timberlands located in its Southern Resources Segment to Southern Diversified Timber, LLC (the Timberland Venture) in exchange for a $705 million preferred interest and a 9% common interest valued at $78 million. The Timberland Ventures other member, an affiliate of The Campbell Group LLC, contributed $783 million of cash in exchange for 91% of the Timberland Ventures common interest. Following the contribution, the company borrowed $783 million from the Timberland Venture (Note Payable to Timberland Venture). The preferred interest is entitled to a cumulative preferred return equal to 7.875%per annum (approximately $56 million). No distributions can be made on the common interests until all current period and prior period preferred returns have been paid. The preferred interest has a preference in liquidation over the common interests. Preferred return distributions are payable on March15th and September15th each year. The annual interest rate on the Note Payable to Timberland Venture is fixed at 7.375%, resulting in annual interest expense of approximately $58 million. During the ten-year term of the note, interest is paid quarterly with the principal due upon maturity. The Timberland Venture can only be liquidated with the consent of both partners. However, upon the nine year anniversary of the Timberland Venture, Plum Creek has the right for a six-month period to cause the Timberland Venture to redeem the other partners interest. The other Timberland Venture partner has a similar redemption right after the seven year anniversary. The activities of the Timberland Venture consist primarily of the ownership of timberlands and entering into cutting contracts with an affiliate of The Campbell Group for the sale and harvesting of timber. An affiliate of The Campbell Group is the manager of the Timberland Venture. The manager and the other member control the day-to-day operating decisions of the Timberland Venture. Plum Creek retains certain protective rights that require its consent before the Timberland Venture can take certain actions. For example, without Plum Creeks consent and subject to certain exceptions, the Timberland Venture generally cannot sell properties, incur indebtedness, file for bankruptcy or enter into contracts with affiliates which are not arms length. No gain was recognized in connection with the contribution of the timberlands to the venture in 2008. The book basis in the contributed timberlands was $174 million, and the company capitalized costs of $9 million in connection with the transfer. The Timberland Venture recorded the contributed timberlands at fair value, or $783 million.
