        <footnote id="F2">Scott Massey disclaims beneficial ownership of these units, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that Mr. Massey is the beneficial owner of the units for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.  Mr. Massey is the sole manager of T. Foster Management, LLC (the &quot;General Partner&quot;), a single member LLC, which is the general partner of Foster Forestry Co., L.P. (the &quot;Partnership&quot;), and therefore has investment control over the units purchased by the Partnership.  The General Partner is owned by the Estate of Tolbert Foster (the &quot;Estate&quot;), for which Mr. Massey serves as the executor.  Mr. Massey is not a beneficiary of the Estate and does not own any equity interests in the General Partner or the Partnership.  As such, Mr. Massey has no pecuniary interest in the units purchased by the Partnership.</footnote>
