Wausau Paper Corp., et. al., Case No. 15-CV-009176 (Nov. 16, 2015) (“Nieuwenhuis Action”) (collectively, the “Actions”), include substantially similar allegations that Wausau’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties in ~~connection~~its ~~with~~entirety ~~the Merger~~ by ~~agreeing~~reference to the ~~proposed acquisition of Wausau by SCA Americas and~~ Merger ~~Sub~~Agreement, ~~and~~a ~~failing~~copy ~~to obtain the highest value reasonably available for the shareholders~~ of ~~Wausau.~~which ~~The Actions also allege that Wausau, SCA Americas, Merger Sub, and Starboard have aided and abetted those alleged fiduciary breaches. On November 13, 2015, an amended complaint~~ was filed inas ~~the~~Exhibit Rosenberg Action (“Amended Complaint”), which alleges similar claims that members of the Wausau board of directors breached their fiduciary duties and that Wausau, SCA Americas, Merger Sub, and Starboard have aided and abetted those alleged fiduciary breaches2.1 ~~The~~to ~~Amended Complaint also asserts additional claims that members of~~ the ~~Wausau~~Company’s ~~board~~Current ofReport ~~directors~~on ~~breached~~Form ~~their~~8-K ~~fiduciary duties by purportedly misstating and omitting material information from the Definitive Proxy Statement as~~ filed ~~initially~~with ~~on November 10, 2015. On November 25, 2015,~~ the ~~court~~Securities ~~consolidated~~and ~~the~~Exchange ~~Actions~~Commission ~~under the caption: In re Wausau Paper Corp. Shareholder Litigation, Consolidated Case No. 15-CV-009090~~ (the “~~Consolidated Action~~SEC”), ~~designated~~on ~~the~~October ~~Amended Complaint as the operative complaint in the Consolidated Action~~13, ~~and appointed the law firm of Faruqi & Faruqi~~2015, ~~LLP as lead counsel~~ and the ~~law~~terms ~~firm~~ of ~~Ademi & O’Reilly, LLP as liaison counsel. On December 1, 2015, plaintiff filed a motion for expedited discovery,~~ which ~~has~~are ~~yet~~incorporated toherein ~~be decided~~ by ~~the court~~reference. ~~On December 29, 2015, plaintiff filed a motion for temporary injunction, which has yet to be decided by the court.~~

OnItem ~~January 12, 2016, the defendants entered into a memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) with the plaintiffs providing for the settlement of all claims in the Consolidated Action~~3. Under the MOU, and subject to court approval and definitive documentation, the plaintiff and the putative class settle and release, against the named defendants certain related parties, all claims in the Consolidated Action and any pleadings or briefs filed in the same and any potential claim related to (i) the matters alleged in any pleadings or briefs filed in the Consolidated Action; (ii) the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger; (iii) the Definitive Proxy Statement and any amendments, supplements, or modifications to any of the foregoing, and any other public disclosures made in connection with or regarding the Merger; (iv) the statutory or fiduciary obligations (including any disclosure obligations) of any of the defendants or certain related parties in connection with the Merger Agreement, the Merger, the Definitive Proxy Statement or any amendments, supplements, or modifications to any of the foregoing, and any other public disclosures made in 01.

~~connection~~As ~~with~~of orJanuary ~~regarding~~21, 2016, trading in shares of Common Stock on the ~~Merger;~~New York Stock Exchange (vthe “NYSE”) has been halted. As a consequence of the ~~negotiations~~Merger, inon ~~connection~~January 21, 2016, the Company requested that the NYSE file a Form 25 with the ~~Merger~~SEC, ~~Agreement~~to ~~and~~request ~~Merger;~~the removal of the Common Stock from listing on the NYSE and from registration under Section 12(vib) ~~any~~of ~~and~~the ~~all~~Securities ~~conduct~~Exchange byAct ~~any~~of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). The Company intends to file with the SEC a certification on Form 15 under the Exchange Act requesting the termination of the ~~defendants~~registration ~~and~~of ~~certain~~the ~~related~~Common ~~parties~~Stock ~~arising~~under ~~out~~Section 12(g) of orthe ~~relating~~Exchange inAct ~~any~~and ~~way~~the tosuspension of the ~~negotiation~~Company’s orreporting ~~execution~~obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the ~~MOU~~Exchange Act. The disclosure set forth in the Introductory Note above and ~~any~~under ~~subsequent~~Item ~~stipulation~~2.01 is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.01.

The settlement will not affect the timing of the special meeting of the shareholders of Wausau, which is scheduled to be held on January 20, 2016, or the amount of the consideration to be paid to Wausau’s shareholders in connection with the Merger. While Wausau and the other defendants believe that no supplemental disclosure is required under applicable laws, in order to avoid the risk of the putative stockholder class actions delaying or adversely affecting the Merger and to minimize the expense of defending such actions, Wausau and the other defendants have agreed, pursuant to the terms of the MOU, to make certain supplemental disclosures related to the proposed Merger, all of which are set forth below. The MOU contemplates that the parties will enter into a stipulation of settlement. The stipulation of settlement will be subject to customary conditions, including court approval following notice to Wausau’s stockholders. In the event that the parties enter into a stipulation of settlement, a hearing will be scheduled at which the Circuit Court of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin will consider the fairness, reasonableness, and adequacy of the settlement. If the settlement is finally approved by the court, it will resolve and release all claims in all actions that were or could have been brought challenging any aspect of the proposed Merger, the Merger Agreement, and any disclosure made in connection therewith, pursuant to terms that will be disclosed to stockholders prior to final approval of the settlement. In addition, in connection with the settlement, the parties contemplate that plaintiffs’ counsel will file a petition in the Circuit Court of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin for an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to be paid by Wausau or its successor. The settlement, including the payment by Wausau or any successor thereto of any such attorneys’ fees, is also contingent upon, among other things, the Merger becoming effective under Wisconsin law. There can be no assurance that the Circuit Court of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin will approve the settlement contemplated by the MOU. In the event that the settlement is not approved and such conditions are not satisfied, the defendants will continue to vigorously defend against the allegations in the Consolidated Action, which the defendants believe are without merit.-2-

The Wausau board of directors asked questions of representatives of the independent consulting firm and received answers to those questions. Following attendance at this meeting, Wausau did not have any further discussions with Accenture regarding the Margin Enhancement Initiative and Accenture was not involved in the formal process of evaluating strategic and financial alternatives later pursued by Wausau. After excusing the representatives of Accenture, the Wausau board of directors discussed and determined, based on the discussion with Accenture and the current progress of the Margin Enhancement Initiative, to engage a financial advisor to formally review the strategic alternatives available to Wausau. The Wausau board of directors discussed engaging Evercore because of Evercore’s qualifications, experience, and reputation, as well as its familiarity with the business of Wausau, including Evercore’s prior experience representing Wausau in connection with a potential proxy contest with Starboard Value LP in 2013. Then, the Wausau board of directors directed Mr. Burandt to discuss the terms of such engagement with Evercore.
