WEYERHAEUSER COMPANY

SALARIED EMPLOYEES SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT PLAN

As Restated Effective January 1, 2003

 

PURPOSE

 

This Plan is established as an unfunded pension plan primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of Sections 201, 301 and 401 of ERISA (and Section 2520.104-23 of regulations under ERISA). In particular, the Plan provides non-qualified retirement pension benefits which are in addition to retirement benefits provided by Weyerhaeuser plans that are qualified under Code Section 401(a).

 

An SRP Participant shall be eligible under this Plan for any Target Accrued Benefit that is Vested as of the date of his or her Termination; provided, however, that, for an SRP Participant (or a beneficiary of a pre-retirement death benefit) with an SRP Benefit Commencement Date on or after January 1, 2003, the optional forms of benefit, and the Actuarial Equivalencies applicable to any Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form under this Plan, shall be in accordance with the terms of the Qualified Salaried Plan which are in effect on the SRP Benefit Commencement Date.

 

Effective May 1, 2001, the MacMillan Bloedel Companies Supplemental Retirement Income Plan (“Supplemental MB Plan”) was merged with and into this Plan. Benefit accruals under the Supplemental MB Plan were frozen as of December 31, 2000, and any and all rights and obligations to any such frozen benefits under that plan through that date were transferred to this Plan as of the May 1, 2001 merger date. There shall be no automatic right to accrue additional benefits under this Plan on or after the merger date merely because an individual had been a participant in the Supplemental MB Plan prior to the merger date.

 

Effective December 31, 2002, the Willamette Industries, Inc. Supplemental Accrued Benefits Plan (“Willamette SBP”) was merged with and into this Plan. Benefit accruals under the Willamette SBP were frozen as of the merger date, and any and all rights and obligations to any such frozen benefits under that plan through that date were transferred into this Plan as of the merger date. There shall be no automatic right to accrue additional benefits under this Plan after the merger date merely because an individual had been a participant in the Willamette SBP on or before the merger date.

 

The Plan is hereby restated effective January 1, 2003. Unless otherwise stated, the provisions included in this restatement are effective for Terminations and SRP Benefit Commencement Dates on or after January 1, 2003.

(b) Second Condition

An individual satisfies this subsection (i), if (A) such individual is a high policy making employee, and (B) such individual has been nominated by the Chief Executive Officer of Weyerhaeuser and approved for inclusion in this Plan by the Compensation Committee.

 

(ii) Individuals Affected by Qualified Plan Limitations

 

An individual satisfies this subsection (ii) if his or her Accrued Benefit under the Qualified Salaried Plan is limited by either the maximum benefit restrictions of Code Section 415 or the maximum includible Earnings restrictions of Code Section 401(a)(17).

 

3.2 Prior Participants in MB Supplemental Plan

 

If an individual had accrued a retirement income benefit under the Supplemental MB Plan on December 31, 2000, but did not become eligible to participate in this Plan under Section 3.1 above, the individual shall have a vested right under this Plan to receive a Target Accrued Benefit equal to the benefit accrued under the Supplemental MB Plan through December 31, 2000.

ARTICLE IV: PENSION BENEFITS

 

Article IV: PENSION BENEFITS

 

4.1 Earnings Based Pension Benefits

 

(a) Target Accrued Benefit

 

Subject to other applicable terms of Article IV of this Plan, for an individual with one or more Hours of Service on or after January 1, 2003 as an SRP Participant, the amount of his or her Target Accrued Benefit under this Plan shall be equal to the Accrued Benefit that would be determined under the provisions of Section 4.1 to 4.5 of the Qualified Salaried Plan if the following modifications were made:

 

  (i) Eligible Bonuses were added to Earnings that are otherwise taken into account under the Qualified Salaried Plan;

 

  (ii) The maximum benefit limitations under Code Section 415 were eliminated; and

 

  (iii) The limit on includible Earnings under Code Section 401(a)(17) was eliminated.

 

The combined effect of clauses “(i)” through “(iii)”above, as applied, for example, to the pension formula of Section 4.1(a) of the Qualified Salaried Plan, is to calculate the Target Accrued Benefit under this Plan by substituting an SRP Participant’s Total Adjusted Final Average Earnings instead of his or her Final Average Monthly Earnings wherever the Final Average Monthly Earnings would otherwise be taken into account under Sections 4.1 through 4.5 of the Qualified Salaried Plan.

 

(b) Supplemental Accrued Benefit and Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form

 

(i) Definition of Supplemental Accrued Benefit — In General

 

Subject to the subsections below, the Supplemental Accrued Benefit shall be expressed as a benefit payable in the Normal Form (a Single Life Annuity), and commencing as of the Normal Retirement Date, in an amount equal to the Target Accrued Benefit reduced by the Accrued Benefit that is determined under Sections 4.1 to 4.4 of the Qualified Salaried Plan, prior to any adjustments for the timing or form of the benefit.

 

(ii) Definition of Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form

 

Subject to the subsections below, the Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form shall be a benefit expressed in the form of a Single Life Annuity, in a monthly amount based on the Supplemental Accrued Benefit, but after taking account of any and all adjustments applicable to the timing of the commencement of the benefit as of the SRP Benefit Commencement Date (as further provided in Article

 

           
     PAGE 9     


ARTICLE IV: PENSION BENEFITS

 

IV of this Plan and the Qualified Salaried Plan), but not any Actuarial adjustments based on any optional form in which the benefit is paid (as further provided in Article VI of this Plan).

 

(iii) Special Rule for Past Service Benefits Added to Accrued Benefit

 

For an SRP Participant who has a right under the Qualified Salaried Plan to receive any Past Service Benefit (as described in Notes F, G or H of Attachment 3 of that plan) which are payable as an additional benefit over and above the benefit determined under the Accrued Benefit pension formulas of Sections 4.1 to 4.5 of that plan, then the Supplemental Accrued Benefit under this Plan shall be equal to (a) the Target Accrued Benefit without taking into account any such Past Service Benefit that is additive in character, minus (b) the Accrued Benefit under Sections 4.1 to 4.5 of the Qualified Salaried Plan without taking into account any such Past Service Benefit which is additive in character.

 

For example, for an SRP Participant who is entitled to receive a Past Service Benefit consisting of either a Bohemia or Penntech Frozen Accrued Benefit (as described in Notes H-1 and H-3 of the Qualified Salaried Plan), the Supplemental Accrued Benefit under this Plan shall be equal to (a) the Target Accrued Benefit without taking into account any such Bohemia or Penntech Frozen Accrued Benefit, minus (b) the Accrued Benefit under Sections 4.1 to 4.5 of the Qualified Salaried Plan without taking into account any such Bohemia or Penntech Frozen Accrued Benefit.

 

For an SRP Participant who is entitled to receive a Past Service Benefit consisting of a Cavenham Frozen Accrued Benefit (as described in Note H-2 of the Qualified Salaried Plan), the Supplemental Accrued Benefit under this Plan shall be equal to (a) the Target Accrued Benefit taking into account any such Cavenham Frozen Accrued Benefit, minus (b) the Accrued Benefit under Sections 4.1 to 4.5 of the Qualified Salaried Plan taking into account any such Cavenham Frozen Accrued Benefit.

 

(iv) Special Rule for Past Service Benefits Offset from Accrued Benefit

 

The terms and conditions of this subsection 0 shall determine the Supplemental Accrued Benefit for an SRP Participant who is entitled to receive a Past Service Benefit under Section 4.3 of the Qualified Salaried Plan, which involves (A) imputed Years of Credited Service (for the period of service with a prior employer or prior plan), and (B) an offset from the Accrued Benefit under the Qualified Salaried Plan to take account of the benefit earned under the prior qualified plan.

 

           
     PAGE 10     


In such a case, the Supplemental Accrued Benefit under this Plan shall be the difference of (A) and (B), as follows:

 

ARTICLE IV: PENSION BENEFITS

 

  (A) the Target Accrued Benefit under this Plan, which shall be based on all Years of Credited Service taken into account for calculation of the “Wrap-Around” benefit (as defined in Section 4.3(b)(ii)(A) of that plan), minus

 

  (B) the sum of (1) the Accrued Benefit under the Qualified Salaried Plan and (2) the “Benefit Under Prior Plan” (as defined in Section 4.3(b)(ii)(B) of the Qualified Salaried Plan).

 

Provided, however, in the case of an SRP Participant with a prior benefit under the Qualified MB Plan, the terms of subsections (A) and (B) above shall not apply and, instead, the Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form under this Plan shall be determined in two steps:

 

First: The interim amount of the Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form shall be calculated by: (a) determining the difference of the Target Accrued Benefit for all “Wrap Around” years (as defined above), minus the Qualified Salaried Plan benefit for all such “Wrap Around” years, and then (b) adjusting that difference to reflect any applicable early commencement factor under the terms of this Plan, and

 

Second: That interim amount shall be reduced, dollar for dollar, by the monthly benefit payable from the Qualified MB Plan (expressed as a Single Life Annuity, after applying any applicable adjustment for early commencement under the terms of the Qualified MB Plan).

 

Notwithstanding all of the above provisions of this subsection (iv), the following comparison calculation shall apply instead in the event that it results in a greater benefit than the above provisions. The comparison calculation is as follows: the Supplemental Accrued Benefit under this Plan shall be the difference between (A) the Target Accrued Benefit based solely on Years of Credited Service with the Employer (without reference to any imputed service with the prior employer), minus (B) the Accrued Benefit based solely on those same Years of Credited Service with the Employer. In that event, any applicable adjustment for benefit commencement prior to age 65 shall be based solely on the terms of this Plan.

 

4.2 Special Rules for Certain Merged Plans

 

  (a) SRP Participants with Prior Willamette Accrued Benefits

 

This subsection (a) shall not apply to any individual who was not an active, inactive or retired member of the Willamette SBP as of December 31, 2002, which is the date the Willamette SBP was merged with and into this Plan.

ARTICLE IV: PENSION BENEFITS

 

  (i) Transition Rules for Willamette SBP Benefits

 

  (A) Willamette SBP Retirees with Pre-2003 Commencement Dates

 

The provisions of this subsection “(A)” shall be applied under this Plan in like manner as stated in Section 4.1(c)(i) of the Qualified Salaried Plan. For a retiree of the Willamette SBP (or his or her beneficiary) who, as of December 31, 2002, is receiving benefits from the Willamette SBP, he or she shall be entitled to continue receiving benefits from this Plan in like amount, subject to the terms of the form of benefit elected by the retiree as of the date of his or her commencement of benefits.

 

  (B) Terminated Willamette SBP Members With No Post-1/1/2003 Service

 

The provisions of this subsection “(B)” shall be applied under this Plan in like manner as stated in Section 4.1(c)(ii) of the Qualified Salaried Plan. For an SRP Participant with a Willamette Frozen or Bridgeable Accrued Benefit who has an SRP Benefit Commencement Date on or after January 1, 2003, but who has no Hours of Service as an Employee on or after that date, none of his or her Willamette Benefit Credits shall be considered Years of Credited Service under the post-1/1/2003 benefit formulas of Section 4.1(a) and 4.2 of the Qualified Salaried Plan (or the corresponding benefit calculation under this Plan). Such an SRP Participant’s Target Accrued Benefit shall be based on his or her “Unrestricted Benefit” under the Willamette SBP, offset by the accrued benefit under the Willamette Salaried Plan. The Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form that is payable under this Plan shall take into account the applicable adjustment for early commencement, if commencing prior to age 65, according to the terms of the Willamette Salaried Plan. The SRP Participant may elect, subject to the terms of Section 6.2 of this Plan, to have the Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form paid in any of the optional forms described in Article VI of this Plan, subject to Actuarial adjustments for the form of benefit as stated in this Plan, which incorporates by reference the terms of Attachment 1 of the Qualified Salaried Plan.

 

  (C) Willamette Bridgeable Accrued Benefits

 

For an SRP Participant with Willamette Bridgeable Benefit Credits and at least one Hour of Service as an Employee on or after January 1, 2003, the Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form under this Plan shall be the difference between (i) the largest of the three adjusted Target Accrued Benefit amounts stated in subsections (1) through (3) below, minus (ii) the largest of the three adjusted benefit amounts determined under Section 4.1(c)(iii)(A) through (C) of the Qualified Salaried Plan. For purposes of clause (i) of the preceding sentence, the three alternatives are as follows:

 

  (1) A Target Accrued Benefit equal to the SRP Participant’s Willamette Minimum Target Accrued Benefit, with any applicable adjustment for an SRP Benefit Commencement Date prior to age 65 being determined according to the Early Retirement factors (or, if applicable, early Vested Benefit adjustment factors) of the Willamette Salaried Plan;

 

           
     PAGE 12     


ARTICLE IV: PENSION BENEFITS

 

  (2) A Target Accrued Benefit equal to the SRP Participant’s Willamette Minimum Target Accrued Benefit, with any applicable adjustment for an SRP Benefit Commencement Date prior to age 65 being determined according to the Early Retirement factors (or, if applicable, early Vested Benefit adjustment factors) of the Qualified Salaried Plan; or

 

  (3) A Target Accrued Benefit equal to the SRP Participant’s Target Accrued Benefit accrued through the date of SRP Participant’s Termination, under Section 4.1(a) of this Plan and the pension formula of Section 4.1(a) of the Qualified Salaried Plan, with any applicable adjustment for an SRP Benefit Commencement Date prior to age 65 being determined according to the Early Retirement factors (or, if applicable, early Vested Benefit adjustment factors) of the Qualified Salaried Plan.

 

The SRP Participant may elect to have the Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form paid in any of the optional forms described in Article VI of this Plan, subject to Actuarial adjustments for the form of benefit as stated in that Article, which incorporates by reference the terms of Attachment 1 of the Qualified Salaried Plan.

 

  (D) Willamette Frozen Accrued Benefits

 

The provisions of this subsection “(D)” shall be applied under this Plan in like manner as stated in Section 4.1(c)(iv) of the Qualified Salaried Plan. For an SRP Participant with Willamette Frozen Benefit Credits and at least one Hour of Service as an Employee on or after January 1, 2003, the Supplemental Accrued Benefit shall be equal to the sum of “(1)” and “(2)” as follows:

 

  (1) the difference of (a) the “Unrestricted Benefit” under the Willamette SBP that is based on his or her Willamette Frozen Benefit Credits, minus (b) the Willamette Frozen Accrued Benefit (ignoring any Past Service Benefits); plus

 

           
     PAGE 13     


ARTICLE IV: PENSION BENEFITS

 

  (2) the difference of (a) the Target Accrued Benefit based on the formula of Section 4.1(a) of the Qualified Salaried Plan for any Years of Credited Service accrued on or after January 1, 2003, minus (b) the Accrued Benefit under the Qualified Salaried Plan for Years of Credited Service on or after January 1, 2003.

 

In such a case, the Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form shall be determined in two parts, as follows. The portion of the Supplemental Accrued Benefit described in clause “(1)” above shall be adjusted for any applicable early commencement (as of the SRP Benefit Commencement Date), in accordance with the more favorable of the early commencement reduction factors under the Willamette Salaried Plan or the Qualified Salaried Plan, and the portion described in clause “(2)” shall be adjusted in accordance with the factors under the Qualified Salaried Plan.

 

The SRP Participant may elect, subject to the terms of Section 6.2, to receive payment of the entire Supplemental Benefit in the Normal Form in any of the optional forms described in Article VI of this Plan, subject to Actuarial adjustments for the form of benefit as stated in that Article, which incorporates by reference the terms of Attachment 1 of the Qualified Salaried Plan.

 

(b) Willamette Minimum Target Accrued Benefit

 

For a Former Member of the Willamette SBP who was an active Employee on December 31, 2002, the Target Accrued Benefit under this Plan on or after January 1, 2003, shall not be less than the “Willamette Minimum Target Accrued Benefit”, which means:

  (ii) for a Former Member of the Willamette SBP who, as of December 31, 2002, was potentially eligible for the “Change-in-Control Benefit” under Section 7.4(e) of the Willamette SBP (after taking into account the terms of any written agreement that may be in force as of that date between the Participant and his or her employer), the Willamette Minimum Target Accrued Benefit shall be the amount of such Participant’s Unrestricted Benefit determined according to the terms of said Section 7.4(e) as accrued through December 31, 2002 (but with additional imputed months of service and age in accordance with the terms of said Section 7.4(e)), but only if the Participant Terminates employment on or after January 1, 2003

 

           
     PAGE 14     


ARTICLE IV: PENSION BENEFITS

 

and prior to the applicable 24 or 36 months described in Section 7.4 of the Willamette SBP, other than for “Cause” (as defined in Section 7.4(e) of the Willamette SBP) as of a date that satisfies the conditions for such Change-In-Control Benefit.

 

No benefit that accrues under this Plan on or after January 1, 2003 shall be eligible to be taken into account when determining the Willamette Minimum Target Accrued Benefit under subsection “(ii)” above. Furthermore, where “(ii)” applies, in the case of an SRP Benefit Commencement Date prior to age 65, the additional 24 or 36 months of age (whichever is applicable) that are imputed under the said Section 7.4(e) shall be taken into account under Sections 4.2(a)(i)(C) and (D) of this Plan when determining the more favorable early reduction factor to apply to the Willamette Minimum Target Accrued Benefit as determined under either the Willamette Salaried Plan or the Qualified Salaried Plan.

 

  (c) Former Participants in the Supplemental MB Plan

 

Notwithstanding any other Plan provision, the Supplemental Accrued Benefit for a Former Participant in the Supplemental MB Plan or any Participant who had an accrued benefit in the Qualified MB Plan shall be equal to:

 

  (i) the sum of the Target Accrued Benefit and the accrued benefit under the Qualified MB Plan, reduced by

 

  (ii) the sum of the Accrued Benefit under the Qualified Salaried Plan plus the accrued benefit as defined in the Qualified MB Plan.

 

Provided, however, in no case shall the Supplemental Accrued Benefit for a Former Participant in the Supplemental MB Plan be less than the SRP Participant’s accrued benefit (expressed as a Single Life Annuity commencing at age 65) under the Supplemental MB Plan on December 31, 2000.

 

Notwithstanding any other Plan provision, the Supplemental Accrued Benefit for a Former Participant in the Supplemental MB Plan who terminated employment on or before December 31, 2000, shall equal his or her accrued benefit (expressed as a Single Life Annuity commencing at age 65) under the terms of the version of the MB Supplemental Plan that was in effect on December 31, 2000.

 

4.3 Allocation of Bonus to a Calendar Year
