GLATFELTER COMPANY PROXY STATEMENT INTRODUCTION The accompanying proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of P. H. Glatfelter Company (the "Company"), 228 South Main Street, Spring Grove, Pennsylvania 17362. Copies of this proxy statement and the accompanying proxy are being mailed to the holders of Common Stock on or after March 15, 1996. The proxy may be revoked by a shareholder at any time prior to its use by giving written notice of such revocation to the Secretary of the Company, by appearing at the meeting and voting in person or by the timely submission of a properly executed later dated proxy. The expense of this solicitation will be paid by the Company. Some of the officers and other employees of the Company may solicit proxies personally and by telephone. Holders of Common Stock of record at the close of business on March 6, 1996 will be entitled to one vote per share so held of record on all business of the meeting, except that the holders have cumulative voting rights in elections of directors. Therefore, each shareholder is entitled to as many votes in the election of directors of each class as shall equal the number of his shares of Common Stock multiplied by the number of directors of such class to be elected. A shareholder may cast all such votes for a single nominee or may distribute them between two or more nominees within such class as he sees fit. The Company had 42,832,706 shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date. The presence at the meeting in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date will constitute a quorum at the meeting. Votes withheld and abstentions will be counted in determining the presence of a quorum, but will not be voted. Broker non-votes will not be counted in determining the presence of a quorum and will not be voted. If the proxy is signed and returned without directions, the shares will be voted as indicated in the Proxy Statement by the persons named in the accompanying proxy. The votes will be counted by judges of election appointed by the Company. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS Three directors are to be elected at the annual meeting of shareholders to serve three-year terms expiring on the date of the 1999 annual meeting of shareholders and until their respective successors are elected and shall qualify. The persons named in the accompanying proxy intend to vote for the election of N. DeBenedictis, G. H. Glatfelter and M. A. Johnson II for terms expiring in 1999, unless authority to vote for one or more of such nominees is specifically withheld in the proxy. Messrs. DeBenedictis, Glatfelter and Johnson are currently directors of the Company. The persons named in the proxy will have the right to vote cumulatively and to distribute their votes among the nominees as they consider advisable. The three nominees for director receiving the highest number of votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote thereon will be elected to serve on the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is informed that all the nominees are willing to serve as directors, but if any of them should decline to serve or become unavailable for election as a director at the meeting, an event which the Board of Directors does not anticipate, the persons named in the proxy will vote for such nominee or nominees as may be designated by the Board of Directors unless the Board of Directors reduces the number of directors accordingly. 4 The following table sets forth information as to the nominees and the other persons who are to continue as directors of the Company after the annual meeting.

Payouts of earned performance shares will be made in common stock of the Company. If the threshold return on average shareholders' equity is not attained, no shares will be issued. The performance shares will be forfeited upon termination of a participant's employment with the Company during the performance period for any reason other than death or disability. (2) The performance period is from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 1998. 7 10 EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Salary Continuation Plan The Company has a Salary Continuation Plan which provides for the payment for ten years following the retirement or death of the participant of an amount which on an actuarial basis as computed in 1987, was expected to equal the difference between 55% of the participant's then projected compensation at age 60 and the sum of then projected Social Security and Company pension plan retirement benefits to which the participant is entitled. If the participant dies prior to retirement, the benefits are payable to the participant's beneficiary. Compensation for purposes of the Salary Continuation Plan generally includes salary plus cash received and deferred compensation accrued under the Company's Management Incentive Plan and Salaried Employees' Profit Sharing Plan and Company contributions under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Company has purchased insurance on the lives of the participants to provide funds to help offset the costs of benefits payable under the Plan. T. C. Norris and R. W. Wand are the only named executive officers who participate in the Plan. Pension Plans Officers and directors who are full time employees of the Company participate either in the Spring Grove Division Pension Plan for salaried employees or the Ecusta Division Pension Plan for salaried employees (the "Pension Plans"). Benefits payable under the Pension Plans are based upon years of service and average annual compensation for the five consecutive calendar years during the ten years preceding the year of retirement that yield the highest average. Retirement benefits under the Pension Plans are not subject to any deduction for Social Security benefits. Retirement benefits accrued under the Ecusta Division Pension Plan are reduced by any pension benefits payable under a pension plan maintained by a predecessor employer. Annual compensation for purpose of the Pension Plans generally includes salary as listed in the Summary Compensation Table on page 5 ("Compensation Table") plus bonus listed in the Compensation Table for the prior year (but excluding profit sharing awards). To the extent deferral of an award under the Company's Management Incentive Plan causes a reduction in a participant's pension under the Pension Plan applicable to him, the Management Incentive Plan provides a pension supplement. Participants in the Spring Grove Division Pension Plan who have been participating since before May 1, 1970 may receive a benefit, if greater than the usual benefit, which does not give effect to years of service, and is based on plan earnings, which consist of the sum of average compensation in excess of annual base salary for the five year period prior to the year of actual retirement, or, if earlier, the year in which the employee attains age 60, and the annual base salary as of the April 30th closest to the retirement date or, if earlier, the April 30th closest to the 60th birthday. Annual compensation for such participants generally means the salary and bonus amounts listed in the Compensation Table. The Company has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan which provides participants with pension benefits that would have been payable under the Company's Pension Plans but for certain legal limits. The benefits payable under this Plan to each participant are equal to the difference between the benefits that would have been payable under the applicable Pension Plan in the absence of any legal limits and the benefits actually payable under the applicable Pension Plan. Participants may elect to receive the benefits in any form permitted under the applicable Pension Plan, or in the form of a single sum. The following table shows the estimated annual retirement benefits payable in the form of a single life annuity at normal retirement age under the Pension Plans for salaried employees, the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and the pension supplement provided under the Management Incentive Plan. 8 11 PENSION PLAN TABLE ESTIMATED ANNUAL RETIREMENT BENEFIT BASED ON YEARS OF AVERAGE ANNUAL SERVICE FIVE YEAR PLAN ------------------------------------------------------- COMPENSATION 15 20 25 30 35 - -------------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- 125,000..................................... 25,782 34,376 42,970 46,095 49,220 150,000..................................... 31,032 41,376 51,720 55,470 59,220 175,000..................................... 36,282 48,376 60,470 64,845 69,220 200,000..................................... 41,532 55,376 69,220 74,220 79,220 250,000..................................... 52,032 69,376 86,720 92,970 99,220 300,000..................................... 62,532 83,376 104,220 111,720 119,220 400,000..................................... 83,532 111,376 139,220 149,220 159,220 500,000..................................... 104,532 139,376 174,220 186,720 199,220 600,000..................................... 125,532 167,376 209,220 224,220 239,220 700,000..................................... 146,532 195,376 244,220 261,720 279,220 800,000..................................... 167,532 223,376 279,220 299,220 319,220 The following executive officers who participate in the Pension Plans had the indicated credited years of service at December 31, 1995: T. C. Norris: 36 years, J. F. Myers: 28 years, R. P. Newcomer: 23 years, G. H. Glatfelter II: 19 years, and R. S. Lawrence: 35 years. Of the named executive officers at December 31, 1995, Mr. Norris and Mr. Myers were participants in the Spring Grove Division Pension Plan before May 1, 1970 and their accrued benefits at age 65 in the form of a single life annuity under such plan, calculated without respect to service, were $243,449 and $100,909 per year, respectively. The Company has a Supplemental Management Pension Plan which provides for the payment of an early retirement supplement to any participant who retires before reaching age 65 and elects to defer receipt of benefits under one of the Company's Pension Plans until he reaches age 65 or, if earlier, until the first day of the 36th month following his retirement. The monthly payment equals the monthly amount calculated for the participant under the Pension Plan, but with the addition of three years to the participant's age. Payments end when the participant or the participant's beneficiary begins to receive payments under the Pension Plan or, if there is no beneficiary, at death. COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCK AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION The Compensation Committee consists of five members of the Board of Directors: J. W. Kennedy (Chairman), P. H. Glatfelter III, R. S. Hillas, P. R. Roedel and R. L. Smoot. Mr. Glatfelter is Chairman Emeritus and a former Chairman of the Board and President of the Company, and is also a principal shareholder of the Company (see "Ownership of Common Stock" below). REPORT OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The Compensation Committee reviews and approves the elements of the Company's executive compensation program and assesses the effectiveness of the program as a whole. The Compensation Committee's responsibilities include: (i) reviewing and establishing the level of salaries and benefits for corporate officers and other key senior management employees of the Company, including but not limited to benefits under the Company's long-term incentive plan, profit sharing plan, defined benefit and contribution plans and other welfare benefit plans, (ii) reviewing annually with the Company's Chief Executive Officer, T. C. Norris, the 9 12 job performance of corporate officers and key senior management as measured against financial and other objectives and the Company's achievements as compared to certain other companies in the paper and forest products industry, and (iii) reviewing and approving the participants in, and the operating rules for awards under, the Company's Management Incentive Plan. The Compensation Committee from time to time reviews the Company's entire executive compensation structure through an examination of compensation information for comparable companies and certain broader-based data, including data relating to the geographic areas in which the Company has facilities, compiled by the Company and by compensation and other consulting firms. As used herein, comparable companies refer to other companies in the paper and forest products industry (both publicly and privately owned) selected by management as being the companies in the industry which on an overall basis are most similar to the Company in relation to size, products and financial and other characteristics and in certain cases to general industry and nondurable manufacturing companies of roughly the same revenue size as the Company. Certain of the comparable companies are included in the Dow Jones Paper Products Industry Group and/or the S&P 500, and therefore are represented in the Stock Performance Chart below. In examining the compensation paid by the comparable companies, the Compensation Committee does not analyze the stock performance of such companies, but does examine their general financial performance. Executive Compensation Policies. The Compensation Committee has generally structured the Company's executive compensation program (i) to be competitive with compensation programs of comparable companies to enable the Company to attract, retain and motivate a highly qualified executive management team, (ii) to provide a significant portion of variable-based compensation that is contingent upon objectively-measured performance to align executive officers' interests with those of the Company's shareholders, and (iii) to include appropriate and flexible design features in such programs which will be responsive to the peculiarities of the paper industry and to the changing needs of the Company. The elements of the Company's executive compensation program are salary, annual incentive compensation and long-term incentive compensation and other benefits. From time to time the Compensation Committee solicits the advice of compensation and other consulting firms to evaluate the Company's executive compensation program in order to ensure that such program is competitive with compensation programs of comparable companies. The Compensation Committee will consider whether any revisions to the Company's executive compensation program are appropriate due to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and proposed regulations relating thereto which limit deductibility of compensation over $1 million paid to an executive officer in a year. Salary. The Company's policy is to pay fair salaries at levels which are sufficient to attract and retain high caliber individuals based on the relative value of each position, as measured against comparable companies. The Compensation Committee assigns each executive position a salary range based on the salary level for similar positions at comparable companies. Ranges are adjusted by the Committee periodically. Generally, executive officer salaries are reviewed and approved annually. The salary for each executive is set by the Compensation Committee within the established range for the position after an assessment of his or her performance and the relation of his or her salary to the midpoint for the relevant salary range, as well as the Company's financial results and general economic conditions. The factors that were considered in granting salary increases to executive officers in 1995 were as follows: (i) salaries for such officers had been frozen since April, 1993, (ii) the salary levels for a number of the executive officers were significantly below the midpoint salary levels of the salary grades for their respective positions and the midpoint salary levels for positions of similar scope and responsibility at comparable companies and, (iii) the Compensation Committee's assessment of the officer's performance as evaluated and reported to the Committee by the Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Glatfelter and Mr. Newcomer were granted additional increases coincident with their election to the office of Senior Vice President on September 27, 1995. Annual Incentive Compensation. The Compensation Committee establishes incentive bonus opportunities designed to encourage greater efforts on the part of key salaried employees to increase the profits of the 10 13 Company. The incentive bonus opportunities potentially represent a significant portion of total compensation and are intended to correlate with the financial performance of the Company or one or more divisions thereof. The underlying objectives of the Company's Management Incentive Plan are to assure that incentive bonus awards are at risk annually, to reward key mill management personnel on the basis of both mill and corporate financial results, and to provide an incentive bonus award structure for key salaried employees of the Company that is similar to that of comparable companies. To establish financial targets for payment of incentive awards, the Company and each of its mills are treated as separate profit centers. In addition, the Glatfelter Paper Group profit center represents a combination of the Spring Grove and Neenah mill profit centers. The incentive bonus award for all profit centers, exclusive of the Corporate profit center, is based on a combination of the return on capital employed (as defined for each of the individual mill profit centers), and the return on shareholders' equity (as defined) of the Company. The incentive bonus award for the Corporate profit center is based solely on return on shareholders' equity (as defined) of the Company. The Compensation Committee establishes maximum, target and minimum financial objectives to be achieved for each profit center each year. Under the Plan, when establishing such financial objectives, the Compensation Committee considers the current economic climate, the forecast for the Company's business and the historical financial results of the Company. This methodology is intended to induce management to enhance the profitability of the Company throughout the full business cycle, and therefore should provide value to the shareholders of the Company. The Compensation Committee believes that executive officers should not receive any incentive bonus if the Company does not achieve annually established minimum financial objectives. The financial performance of the Company's corporate and Ecusta mill profit centers for 1995, which were the most relevant profit centers for the named executive officers, exceeded the maximum financial objectives established by the Committee. Accordingly, in 1995 the Company made incentive bonus payments, in contrast to the prior two years when no incentive bonuses were paid because the Company did not reach the minimum financial objectives for those years. Long-Term Incentive Compensation. The Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan, which was approved by shareholders in 1992, enables the Company to offer key employees equity interests in the Company and other incentive awards, including performance-based stock incentives. Certain features of the Plan (i.e. stock options, performance awards, performance units and restricted stock) are similar to long-term incentives offered by many of the comparable companies. The primary purposes of the Plan are to (i) attract, retain, motivate and reward key employees, (ii) provide target long-term incentive award opportunities which are competitive with comparable companies, (iii) assure that the awards issued pursuant to the Plan reflect the cyclical and long-term nature of the paper industry, (iv) enable senior executives to acquire appropriate levels of equity interest in the Company in order to increase the alignment of their interests with those of shareholders and (v) otherwise strengthen the mutuality of interests between key employees and the Company's shareholders. In 1995, the Company adopted a long-term incentive program, developed at the direction of the Committee by an executive compensation consulting firm, under which stock options and/or performance shares are granted annually to key employees. The value of such awards is based upon the value of awards granted to positions of similar scope and responsibility within comparable companies. Stock options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock at the time of the grant and become exercisable in 25% increments on January 1 of the next four years. Contingent awards of performance shares are generally made on the first day of the four-year Award Period. At the end of the four-year award period, the number of shares earned is based upon the level of achievement of two factors: return on average shareholders' equity and pre-tax earnings growth for the four-year performance period. If the threshold return on average shareholders' equity is not attained, no shares are earned. Above the threshold goals, the contingent 11 14 award is reduced if the target goals are not met and such contingent award is supplemented if the target goals are exceeded. Payouts of earned performance shares are made in common stock of the Company at the end of the four-year performance period. The primary factors considered by the Compensation Committee in setting the amounts of options and performance shares granted in 1995 were the amounts granted by comparable companies in establishing a new program and the Committee's view that the Company has granted long-term incentive awards in recent years with less frequency than many comparable companies. CEO Compensation. Mr. Norris' salary increased effective July 1, 1995, the first such increase since April 1, 1993. The Committee recognized Mr. Norris' leadership of the Company through the industry downcycle and the successful completion of the pulpmill modernization project. In addition, the Compensation Committee determined in its review of comparable company data that Mr. Norris' base salary was significantly below that of the average for his peer group and his midpoint base salary was also significantly below the average for his peer group. Mr. Norris received the maximum annual incentive bonus award for 1995 reflecting the fact that the financial performance of the Company's corporate profit center for 1995 exceeded the maximum financial objectives established by the Compensation Committee for 1995. At the request of Mr. Norris, the Compensation Committee did not award him any long-term incentive compensation in 1995. J. W. Kennedy P. H. Glatfelter III R. S. Hillas P. R. Roedel R. L.
