As previously announced, the Maximum Principal Amount to be Accepted by Weyerhaeuser pursuant to the Maximum Tender Offers is $222,250,000. Because the principal amount of 6.125 percent Notes due March 15, 2007 validly tendered and not validly withdrawn exceeds the Maximum Principal Amount to be Accepted, Weyerhaeuser will not purchase any of its 5.950 percent Notes due November 1, 2008. According to Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the depositary for the Offers, $360,559,000 in aggregate principal amount of 6.125 percent Notes due March 15, 2007 were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or before the expiration date. According to the terms and conditions of the Offers, $222,250,000 in aggregate principal amount of 6.125 percent Notes due March 15, 2007 were validly tendered and accepted for purchase, resulting in a Final Proration Factor of 61.7 percent.

As previously announced, $277,750,000 in aggregate principal amount of securities in the Any and All Offers, which expired on Dec. 1, 2005 were validly tendered and accepted for purchase on Dec. 2, 2005.
