    For the purposes of determining the Incentive Award Factor, all rates of
return will be computed to one decimal.  Should the actual rate of return fall
between the maximum, target or minimum values in the table, the Incentive Award
Factor will vary proportionately to the interval between the actual rate of
return and the maximum, target or minimum values into which it falls.

 
                                                                            20

    The Incentive Award Factor for the mill profit centers will be based on the
aggregate of 80% of the ROCE factor for the mill and 20% of the ROSE factor for
the Company.  The award factor for the Glatfelter Paper Group reflects the
combination of the financial results for the Spring Grove and Neenah mills and
will be based on the aggregate of 80% of the ROCE for combined mills and 20% of
the ROSE for the Company.
