1.2 PURPOSES. The purposes of the Plan are to enhance the long-term profitability and shareholder value of Domtar Corporation (the “Company”) by offering stock-based incentives to those employees of the Company and Subsidiaries who are key to the growth and success of the Company, to attract and retain executives with experience and ability on a basis competitive with industry practices, and to motivate executives to focus on strategies that will increase stock price over time through the surrender of awards granted under the Amended and Restated Weyerhaeuser Company 1998 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Prior Plan”) in exchange for awards granted under this Plan in accordance with the Transaction Agreement (as hereinafter defined).

ARTICLE III. STOCK OPTIONS; STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

3.1 TYPES OF STOCK OPTIONS

3.1.1 Types of Options. The Committee is authorized to grant Stock Options to Participants either alone or wholly or partially in connection with Stock Appreciation Rights, for such number of Shares and at such Option Price, and exercisable in such installments over such periods of time and subject to such vesting provisions, as the Committee shall determine. The Committee shall designate each Option issued hereunder as an “Incentive Stock Option” or a “Non-Qualified Stock Option.” To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the Grant Date) of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other stock option plans of the Company) exceeds $100,000, such portion in excess of $100,000 shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option. In the event the participant holds two or more such Options that become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, such limitation shall be applied on the basis of the order in which such Options are granted.

3.1.2 Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee is authorized to grant Stock Appreciation Rights, either alone or wholly or partly in conjunction with Stock Options, for such numbers of Shares and at such Option Prices as the Committee shall determine. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Holder shall be entitled to receive cash equivalent to the difference per Share between the fair market value and the Option Price, multiplied by the number of Shares as to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised; provided that for purposes of this Section 3.1.2, the fair market value per Share shall be the market price at which Shares are trading on the New York Stock Exchange as of the time the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised; and, provided further, that the Committee shall have the sole discretion to determine in any case or cases such other form in which payment will be made to the Holder, i.e. all cash, all Shares, or any combination thereof. If the Holder is to receive Shares upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the number of Shares so determined is not a whole number, such number shall be reduced to the next lower number and there shall be paid to the Holder in cash an amount equal to the product of multiplying the remaining fractional share by the fair market value, as determined pursuant to the prior sentence, of one share on the exercise date.

7

3.1.3 Exercise/Sell Election. Holders of Stock Options not granted in conjunction with Stock Appreciation Rights shall have, at each time of exercise of such an Option, the right to elect to exercise such Option by causing a cash payment of the Option Price to be made to the Company and simultaneously having such number of such Shares sold through a Company-designated registered broker in an open market transaction, such “exercise/sell election” to be effected in accordance with procedures and documentation established by the Secretary of the Company. The Holder of such Exercise/Sell election shall have the right to elect either to: (A) have the number of Shares to be sold approximate the number of Shares that upon sale on the exercise date would be required to yield cash proceeds equivalent to the sum of (i) the total Option Price for the Shares as to which the option is exercised and (ii) the applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of the Option; or (B) have the number of Shares sold be the number of shares as to which the option is exercised. The Holder of the Stock Option with the Exercise/Sell Election electing under (A) above shall be entitled to receive (i) the proceeds of sale of the Shares to be sold remaining after payment to the Company of the Option Price and the applicable tax withholding; and (ii) the number of Shares remaining after the sale of Shares as provided above. The Holder of the Stock Option with the Exercise/Sell Election electing under (B) above shall be entitled to receive the proceeds of the sale of the Shares to be sold remaining after payment to the Company of the Option Price and the applicable tax withholding.

3.1.4 Exercise/Hold Election. Holders of Stock Options not granted in conjunction with Stock Appreciation Rights shall have, at each time of exercise of such an Option, the right to elect to exercise such Option by causing a cash payment of the Option Price plus any applicable tax withholding due upon the exercise of the Option to be made to the Company. For purposes of determining the amount to be paid to the Company under this Section 3.1.4 for applicable tax withholding, the value of the Shares obtained upon exercise shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value per Share on the trading day immediately prior to the exercise date.

3.2 OPTION PRICE. The Option Price of the Shares subject to any Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Committee, as provided in the Transaction Agreements.

3.3 VESTING; EXERCISE UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

3.3.1 Initial Vesting Period. Each Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Right shall become initially exercisable after such period as may be determined by the Committee.

8

3.3.2 Term of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 3, each Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Right shall by its terms expire at such time as the Committee may determine in granting it, but not later than ten years from the date the Option or Right is granted.

3.3.3 Exercise by Personal Representative. Any Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right exercisable at the time of death of the Holder may be exercised by the personal representative of the Holder entitled thereto at any time or from time to time within two years after the date of death, but in no event later than ten years (or such shorter period as determined under Section 3.3.2) from the Grant Date.

(i) For Awards with a Grant Date prior to 2001:

(iii) For Awards with a Grant Date in 2003 or 2004:

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.3 to the contrary, no Award shall remain outstanding beyond the normal expiration date of such Award.

10

3.4 PAYMENT FOR SHARES

3.4.1 Form of Payment. Upon exercise of a Stock Option not involving exercise of a related Stock Appreciation Right, in whole or in part, the Option Price for Shares to which the exercise relates shall be paid in cash (including payment in accordance with Section 3.1.3 and 3.1.4) or, unless otherwise designated by the Committee at the time the Stock Option is granted, paid for with Shares already owned by the Holder for at least six months (or any shorter period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings for financial reporting purposes) in the manner designated by the Secretary of the Company, valued at their Fair Market Value on the trading day immediately preceding the exercise date. Such payment may be made by tendering by attestation Shares already owned by the Holder that on the day immediately prior to the exercise date have a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares being purchased under the Option. No Shares shall be issued until such payment in full of cash or previously owned Shares has been made. The Holder shall have none of the rights of a shareholder with respect to Shares subject to a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right unless and until the Shares are issued to the Holder.
