Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

On July 30, 2008, NewPage Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of NewPage Holding Corporation, announced that it would permanently close the Kimberly, Wisconsin, mill by the end of August 2008. This action is being taken in order to balance supply to lower customer demands and to reduce costs by closing a mill with a high cost structure. Approximately 475 employees will be affected.

We expect to recognize up to approximately $30 million as a liability in the purchase price allocation for severance and related employee-benefit costs ($25 million) and exit costs ($5 million). We also expect to incur charges up to $10 million for the write-off of inventory, primarily stores and supplies, in the third quarter of 2008. The severance and other costs require the outlay of cash; the write-off of inventory represents a non-cash charge.

A copy of the news release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1.
