Exhibit 99(f) MASTER LEASE AGREEMENT MASTER LEASE AGREEMENT NO. 87071LG313, dated as of July 1, 1987, between American Finance Group, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation having a principal place of business and address for purposes of notice hereunder at Exchange Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02109, Attention: Manager, Lease Financing Group, as Lessor, and Packaging Corporation of America, a Delaware corporation having a principal place of business and address for purposes of notice hereunder at 1603 Orrington Avenue, Evanston, IL 60204 Attention: Treasurer, as Lessee. 1. MASTER LEASE. This Master Lease Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions that govern the lease by Lessor to Lessee of items of Equipment specified on Rental Schedules executed and delivered by the parties from time to time. Each Rental Schedule incorporates by reference this Master Lease Agreement and specifies the Lease Term, the amount of Basic Rent, the Payment Dates on which Basic Rent is due, and such other information and provisions as Lessor and Lessee may agree. Each Rental Schedule constitutes a separate and independent lease. 2. LEASE TERM. LESSEE'S RIGHT TO QUIET ENJOYMENT. Each Rental Schedule is for a non-cancellable Lease Term commencing on the date of acceptance of the Equipment for lease and ending on the Expiration Date specified on such Rental Schedule. Lessee cannot, for any reason, terminate the Rental Schedule or suspend payment or performance of any of its obligations thereunder. Subject to there being no Event of Default under the Rental Schedule, Lessee will have quiet possession and use of the Equipment throughout the Lease Term, and Lessor shall defend and protect such quiet possession and use against all persons claiming by, through or under Lessor. 3. BASIC RENT. NET LEASE. LESSEE'S INDEMNITY. NO WARRANTIES BY LESSOR. Basic Rent is payable in the amount specified on the Rental Schedule. All payments of Basic Rent shall be made to Lessor in good funds on the Payment Dates specified in the Rental Schedule. Basic Rent is net of, and Lessee agrees to pay, and will indemnify and hold Lessor and any assignee of Lessor harmless from and against, all costs (including, without limitation, maintenance, repair and insurance costs), claims (including claims of product liability or strict liability in tort), losses or liabilities relating to the Equipment or its use that are incurred by or asserted against Lessee, any permitted sublessee of Lessee, Lessor or any assignee of Lessor and arise out of matters occurring prior to the return of the Equipment. Lessee agrees to defend all claims through counsel acceptable to Lessor. The Rental Schedule is a triple net lease. Lessee's obligations are not subject to defense, counterclaim, set-off, abatement or recoupment, and Lessee waives all rights to terminate or surrender the Rental Schedule, for any reason, including, without limitation, defect in the Equipment or nonperformance by Lessor, provided, however, that Lessee specifically retains the right to seek recourse against Lessor by way of separate action either at law or in equity in the -1- event of nonperformance by Lessor under the Rental Schedule. LESSOR HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING. WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Lessor will assign to Lessee all manufacturer or vendor warranties and will cooperate with Lessee in asserting any claims under such warranties. 4. USE AND LOCATION OF EQUIPMENT. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS. NO LIENS. NO ASSIGNMENT LESSEE'S RIGHT TO SUBLEASE BY LESSEE. The Equipment is to be used exclusively by Lessee in the conduct of its business, only for the purposes for which it was designed and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. Lessee will obtain and maintain all necessary licenses, permits and approvals. The Equipment is not to be removed from the location specified on the Rental Schedule except upon prior written notice to Lessor, and in no event may the Equipment be moved to a location outside the continental United States. Lessee will effect all maintenance and repairs necessary to keep the Equipment in good and efficient operating condition and appearance, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and will keep written records thereof. All maintenance and repairs will be made in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations and by authorized representatives of the manufacturer or by persons of equal skill and knowledge whose work will not adversely affect any applicable manufacturer's or vendor's warranty. Lessee will keep the Equipment and its interest therein free and clear of all liens and encumbrances other than those created by Lessor or arising out of claims against Lessor and not related to the lease of the Equipment to Lessee. The Rental Schedule may not be assigned by Lessee. Lessee may sublease the Equipment only upon prior written notice to Lessor, in which notice Lessee represents and warrants to Lessor that such sublease is specifically made subject to the prior rights of Lessor under the Rental Schedule, does not create any obligation on the part of Lessor in favor of such sublessee and does not relieve Lessee of any of its obligations under the Rental Schedule. 5. LOSS, DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF EQUIPMENT. Lessee will notify Lessor promptly in writing if any item of Equipment is lost, stolen, requisitioned by a governmental authority or damaged beyond repair (each a "Casualty"), describing the Casualty in reasonable detail, and will promptly file a claim under appropriate policies of insurance. Lessee may, with the prior written consent of Lessor, replace the Equipment suffering a Casualty with similar items of at least equal value and utility. If Lessee does not replace the Equipment, Lessee will pay to Lessor on the next Payment Date following the Casualty, in addition to Basic Rent and other sums due on that date, an amount equal to the greater of the Casualty Value specified on the Rental Schedule or the fair market value of such Equipment. The Rental Schedule, solely as it relates to the Equipment suffering the Casualty, will terminate and ownership of the Equipment suffering the Casualty, including all claims for insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, will pass to Lessee upon receipt of such payment by Lessor. The fair market value of the Equipment will be determined by agreement of Lessee and Lessor, or, if the parties cannot agree, by an independent equipment appraiser of nationally recognized standing, selected by Lessor and reasonably acceptable to Lessee. The cost of appraisal will be shared equally by Lessee and Lessor. -2- 6. TAXES AND FEES. Lessee agrees to prepare and file all required returns or reports and to pay all sales, gross receipts and other taxes (including highway use and vehicle excise taxes, where applicable), fees, interest, fines or penalties imposed by any governmental authority relating in any way to the Equipment, including any documentary, stamp or recordation taxes assessed in connection with the financing of Lessor's purchase of the Equipment and excepting only taxes imposed upon the net income of Lessor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor will report and pay all use taxes and Lessee will pay to Lessor, on each Basic Rent Payment Date, as additional rent, an amount equal to the use taxes attributable to that payment of Basic Rent. 7. INSURANCE. Lessee agrees to maintain policies of insurance on the Equipment in amounts, against risks and on terms and conditions applicable to other equipment owned or leased by Lessee and similar to the Equipment. Such insurance will at a minimum include (1) physical damage and theft insurance in an amount at least equal to the greater of the Casualty Value set forth on the Rental Schedule or the fair market value of the Equipment and (ii) comprehensive liability insurance in the amount of at least $5,000,000 per occurrence, in each case with deductibles not in excess of $100,000. All policies (A) are to be maintained with insurers acceptable to Lessor; (B) are to name Lessor and its assignees as loss payees with respect to physical damage and theft and as additional insureds with respect to liability, as their interests may appear; and (C) are to provide that they may not be altered or cancelled except upon thirty days prior written notice to Lessor and each of Lessor's assignees named as additional insured and loss payee. Notwithstanding the foregoing Lessee may self-insure against physical damage and theft only. Lessee agrees to deliver to Lessor such certificates of insurance or self-insurance as Lessor may, from time to time, request. Lessor may hold any insurance proceeds as security for Lessee's performance of its obligations with respect to the Equipment on behalf of which the proceeds were paid and the payment of all Basic Rent and other sums then due and unpaid under the Rental Schedule and will pay such proceeds over to Lessee only upon receipt of satisfactory evidence thereof. 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. INSPECTION. REPORTS. Lessee will provide to Lessor copies of Lessee's annual balance sheet, profit and loss statement and statement of changes in financial condition, and, if generally available to Lessee's Lenders, quarterly unaudited balance sheet and profit and loss statement, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, all either audited by independent outside auditors or certified by the Lessee's Chief Financial Officer, Lessor may from time to time, upon reasonable notice and during Lessee's normal business hours, inspect the Equipment and Lessee's records with respect thereto and discuss Lessee's financial condition with knowledgeable representatives of Lessee. Lessee will, if requested, provide a report on the condition of the Equipment, a record of its maintenance and repair, a summary of all items suffering a Casualty, a certificate of no default or such other information or evidence of compliance with Lessee's obligations under the Rental Schedule as Lessor may reasonably request. -3- 9. AGREEMENT FOR LEASE ONLY. IDENTIFICATION MARKS. FINANCING STATEMENTS. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each Rental Schedule is intended to be a true lease and not a lease in the nature of a security agreement. Lessee will affix to the Equipment all notices of Lessor's ownership of the Equipment furnished by Lessor. Lessee will execute and deliver and Lessor may file Uniform Commercial Code financing statements or other similar documents notifying the public of Lessor's ownership of the Equipment and Lessee hereby appoints Lessor as its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute and file the same on its behalf. Lessee agrees to promptly execute and deliver to Lessor such further documents or other assurances, and to take such further action, including obtaining landlord and mortgagee waivers, as Lessor may from time to time reasonably request in order to establish and protect the rights and remedies created by the Rental Schedule. 10. LATE PAYMENT CHARGES. LESSOR'S RIGHT TO PERFORM FOR LESSEE. A Late Payment Charge equal to (A) the greater of 21% per annum above the debt rate charged to Lessor in connection with the financing of its purchase of the Equipment or 2% per annum above the prime or base lending rate of The First National Bank of Boston, as announced from time to time, or (B) if less, the highest rate not prohibited by law, will accrue on any sum not paid when due for each day not paid. If Lessee fails to duly and promptly pay or perform any of its obligations hereunder, Lessor may, upon notice to Lessee specifying such nonperformance, itself pay or perform such obligations for the account of Lessee without thereby waiving any default and Lessee will pay to Lessor, on demand and in addition to Basic Rent, an amount equal to all sums so paid or expenses so incurred, plus a Late Payment Charge accruing from the date such sums were paid or expenses incurred by Lessor. 11. LESSEE'S OPTIONS UPON LEASE EXPIRATION. Lessee has the option at the expiration of the Lease Term, exercisable with respect to all, but not less than all, items of Equipment leased pursuant to Rental Schedules having the same Expiration Date, (i) to return the Equipment to Lessor, or (ii) to renew the Rental Schedule at fair rental value for a Renewal Term the length of which shall be determined by agreement of Lessee and Lessor. Lessee agrees to provide Lessor written notice of its decision to return the Equipment or renew the Rental Schedule not less than 120 days prior to the Expiration Date. If Lessee fails to give Lessor 120 days written notice, the Lease Term may, at Lessor's option, be extended and continue until 120 days from the date Lessor receives written notice of Lessee's decision to return the Equipment or renew the Rental Schedule. Fair rental value and useful life will be determined by agreement of Lessor and Lessee, or if the parties cannot agree, by an independent equipment appraiser selected by Lessor and reasonably acceptable to Lessee. The cost of an appraisal will be shared equally by Lessor and Lessee. At the expiration of the Lease Term or any extension or renewal thereof, Lessee will, at its expense, assemble, pack, and crate the Equipment, all in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations, if any, and deliver it by common carrier, freight and insurance prepaid, to a place to be designated by Lessor; provided, however, that shall be responsible for only so much of the cost of shipping as does not exceed the cost of shipping the Equipment a distance of 1500 miles. The Equipment will be returned in good and efficient operating -4- condition and appearance, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and eligible for manufacturer's maintenance, if available, free of all Lessee's markings and free of all liens and encumbrances other than those created by Lessor or arising out of claims against Lessor and not related to the lease of the Equipment to Lessee. The Rental Schedule shall continue in full force and effect and Lessee shall continue to pay Basic Rent through and including the date on which the Equipment is returned by Lessee. 12. LESSEE'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Lessee represents, warrants and certifies as of the date of execution and delivery of each Rental Schedule as follows: (a) Lessee is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation, with full power to enter into and to pay and perform its obligations under the Rental Schedule and this Master Lease Agreement as incorporated therein by reference, and is duly qualified and in good standing in all other jurisdictions where its failure to so qualify would adversely affect the conduct of its business or the performance of its obligations under or the enforceability of the Rental Schedule; (b) the Rental Schedule, this Master Lease Agreement and all related documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Lessee, are enforceable against Lessee in accordance with their terms and do not and will not contravene any provisions of or constitute a default under Lessee's organizational documents or its By Laws, any agreement to which it is a party or by which it or its property is bound, or any law regulation or order of any governmental authority; (c) Lessor's right, title and interest in and to the Rental Schedule, this Master Lease Agreement and the Equipment and the rentals therefrom will not be affected or impaired by the terms of any agreement or instrument by which Lessee or its property is bound; (d) no approval of, or filing with, any governmental authority or other person is required in connection with Lessee's entering into or the payment or performance of its obligations under the Rental Schedule or this Master Lease Agreement as incorporated therein by reference; (e) there are no suits or proceedings pending or threatened before any court or governmental agency against or affecting Lessee which, if decided adversely to Lessee, would materially adversely affect Lessee's business or financial condition or its ability to perform any of its obligations under the Rental Schedule or this Master Lease Agreement as incorporated therein by reference; and -5- (f) there has been no material adverse change to Lessee's financial condition since the date of its most recent audited financial statement. 13.
