<P style="margin:0px; padding-left:48px; font-family:Verdana,Times New Roman" align=justify>As previously announced in our Form 8-K, dated March 2, 2012, the Oregon Supreme Court ruled in the case of Greenwood Products and Jewett-Cameron Lumber Corp. (&#147;plaintiffs&#148;) v. Greenwood Forest Products, et al. (&#147;defendants&#148;) that the decision of the Oregon Court of Appeals is reversed in part in a manner viewed as favorable to the plaintiff.<FONT style="font-family:Times New Roman; font-size:12pt"> </FONT>The case will now be returned to the&nbsp;Oregon Court of Appeals for further consideration.</P>
<P style="margin:0px" align=justify><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; padding-left:48px; font-family:Verdana,Times New Roman" align=justify>We have now reviewed the Court's decision in consultation with the Company's legal advisors. Due to the favorable ruling, we have determined that we will reverse $1,459,833 of the previously accrued Litigation Reserve. This reserve has been recorded as a Contingent Liability and included in the Current Liabilities on the Company's balance sheet. This reversal will be treated as a one-time gain and will be reflected in the financial statements contained in the Company's Form 10-Q for the 2nd quarter ended February 29, 2012.</P>
