$10,000 dollars per year to match donations by each director (as well as by all employees generally) to educational or cultural institutions. In 2004, Bowater contributed a total of under $5,000 to match donations by Outside Directors pursuant to

Deferred Compensation Plan for Outside Directors (the &#147;Deferred Plan&#148;) permits Outside Directors to elect irrevocably to defer receipt of all or a part of their annual retainer and meeting fees. Compensation that a director has elected to
defer under the Deferred Plan can be allocated to a cash account, a Bowater Common Stock account or both accounts, in increments of 10%, as elected by the director. Deferred compensation allocated to stock is credited to directors&#146; stock
accounts on the date the deferred compensation would otherwise have been payable. The number of shares credited equals the dollar amount of the compensation deferred divided by 95% of the closing price on the day of deferral (<I>i.e</I>., a 5%
discount) and includes fractional shares. Whenever dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock, each participant&#146;s stock account will be credited with additional shares having an undiscounted value equal to the amount of the dividend paid on a
single share of such stock, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock, including fractional shares, credited to the participant&#146;s account on the dividend record date. Deferred compensation that is allocated to a cash account will be
credited on the date on which such compensation would have been payable. Amounts credited to a Deferred Plan cash account will accrue interest on the average monthly balance of that account at a rate equal to the rate for the Fixed Income Fund
maintained for Bowater&#146;s Savings Plan (the &#147;Savings Plan&#148;). Outside Directors can elect to transfer balances between the cash and stock accounts subject to certain conditions set forth in the Deferred Plan, but they may not otherwise

&#147;Retirement Plan&#148;). All of Bowater&#146;s current Outside Directors participate in the Retirement Plan. The Retirement Plan provides for retirement benefits equal to 10% of the participant&#146;s annualized retainer at the termination of
service multiplied by the participant&#146;s years of service as an Outside Director of Bowater, up to a maximum of ten years. The benefit may be received in quarterly payments or a lump sum. Normal retirement benefits may begin at age 65 after the
completion of five or more years of service, although early retirement is permitted (with Bowater&#146;s consent) upon attaining age 55 and completing five years of service. Participants who elect early commencement of benefit payments after
retirement receive a reduced benefit. The Retirement Plan provides that a participant who was an Outside Director immediately prior to a change in control of Bowater and who is removed from or not renominated to his or her directorship by reason of
the change in control is entitled to the early retirement benefits provided by the plan regardless of whether the plan requirements for early retirement have been satisfied. The calculation of these benefits will include fees paid for attending
Board and committee meetings for the year preceding the change in control. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:6%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In March 2005, the Board of Directors adopted a resolution to replace the Retirement Plan with a stock-based plan in order to better align compensation with shareholder interests. The new stock-based plan includes an
annual grant of $15,000 worth of stock-based units for each year of future service. For Outside Directors with less than five years of service (five directors), participation in the deferred stock-based plan will begin in May 2005, and dependent
upon promulgation of applicable guidance later this year, it is expected that benefits accrued as of May 2005 under the Retirement Plan of all such Outside Directors will be subject to conversion to the new stock-based plan. Outside Directors with
more than five years of service (four directors) will be able to choose whether to continue to participate in the Retirement Plan, or to participate in the new stock-based plan including conversion of benefits accrued as of May 2005 under the
Retirement Plan to units under the new stock-based plan. The value of the stock-based units will be paid to an Outside Director upon termination of service on the Board provided the Outside Director has served at least five years. </FONT></P> <P

the Summary Compensation table on page 23. The beneficial ownership stated above represents sole voting and investment power, except that 7,000 of Mr. Howard&#146;s shares are owned by Ausnoram Holdings Limited, of which Mr. Howard is a principal,
and that ownership of restricted stock represents sole voting power but not investment power. Common Stock held in the Savings Plan is allocated to the accounts of Bowater&#146;s officers who participate in the plan. The number of shares of Common
Stock allocated to officers is provided by the Savings Plan administrator in a statement for the period ending December 31, 2004, based on the market value of the applicable plan units held by the officer. This table also includes shares of Common
Stock allocated under Bowater&#146;s Compensatory Benefits Plan (the &#147;Compensatory Plan&#148;) based on a statement for the period ending December 31, 2004. Additional shares of Common Stock may have been allocated to the accounts of
participants in the Savings Plan or Compensatory Plan since the date of the last statements from the plan administrators. Participants in the Compensatory Plan have no voting power with respect to share allocations but receive cash payouts based on
the number of shares allocated to their accounts under the plan upon their retirement from Bowater, death, disability or other termination of employment (if they have three years of service), and do not have investment power over share allocations
prior to that time. The number of shares allocated under each of the Savings Plan and the Compensatory Plan is subject to revision in order to comply with requirements respecting nondiscrimination standards and limitations on contributions under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

frozen in 2004. In fact, because of challenging business conditions, executive officer salaries did not increase from January 2001 through 2004, except for increases resulting from promotions and the assignment of increased responsibilities.
Historically executive officers&#146; salaries were generally set to place them above median levels of executive compensation at comparable companies considering the scope of the individual&#146;s responsibilities relative to the responsibilities of
executives at the comparable companies. Historically competitive market data on comparable companies was provided by an independent compensation consultant. The group of companies last used for comparison purposes included the S &amp; P Forest
Products and Paper Group for that year as well as Sonoco Inc. and Wausau-Mosinee Paper Corp. The comparison group differed from the Dow Jones Paper Products Group (the peer group historically shown in Bowater&#146;s total shareholder return chart)
for that year in that the comparison group excluded single-product companies (Pope &amp; Talbot, Inc. and Caraustar Industries, Inc.) that were part of the Dow Jones Paper Products Group and included additional multi-product companies (Georgia
Pacific Corp., Louisiana Pacific Corp., Potlatch Corp., Weyerhaeuser Company and Sonoco Inc.) to increase the size of the comparison group. The composition of the Dow Jones Paper Products Group has since changed to include Potlatch Corp. and to
exclude Abitibi-Consolidated Inc., Stora Enso Corp. and Boise Cascade Corporation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

are at the discretion of the Committee. The Annual Incentive Plan used eight performance measures in 2004: return on net assets (&#147;RONA&#148;), return on capital spending, mill performance, woodlands and lumber performance, profit improvement
initiatives (cost savings), sales goals, forest products project performance and pulp operating income. Each executive&#146;s annual incentive award targets were based on at least four of these measures, each weighted from 5% to 50%, depending on

(&#147;MTIP&#148;). The MTIP has rolling three-year plan cycles, the first of which runs from January 1, 2003, to December 31, 2005, and the second of which runs from January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2006. The MTIP is designed to link rewards of key
executives to the performance of Bowater&#146;s Common Stock and to encourage the generation of cash flow from operations. Awards may be paid in any form, including, without limitation, cash, stock, restricted stock, phantom stock, stock options,
and stock appreciation rights. No payouts under the plan will occur until after completion of the 2003-2005 cycle. The combined maximum payout percentage for the 2003-2005 cycle is 270% of a participant&#146;s base salary as of December 31, 2005,
with a 135% maximum for performance-based awards and a 135% maximum for discretionary awards. Beginning with the second plan cycle, participants can earn up to 90% of end-of-cycle base salary (with the allocation between performance and
discretionary awards determined by the Committee at the beginning of each plan cycle). Payouts under the MTIP will be </FONT>

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">made only to the extent that Bowater generates cash from operations in excess of normal dividends paid during the plan cycle sufficient to fund the awards.
The performance award formula computes a payout percentage based on the total shareholder return (&#147;TSR&#148;) of Bowater&#146;s Common Stock (taking into account changes in price and dividends paid) compared to a group initially consisting of
14 peer companies. For the 2003-2005 plan cycle, if Bowater&#146;s TSR equals the peer group&#146;s average TSR, participants may receive a payout of 50% of base salary at December 31, 2005. This amount increases linearly to a maximum payout of 135%
of base salary at December 31, 2005, if Bowater&#146;s TSR equals or exceeds 90% of the highest TSR in the peer group.<B> </B>For the 2004 &#150; 2006 plan cycle, if Bowater&#146;s TSR equals the peer group&#146;s average TSR, participants may
receive a payout of 16.67% of base salary at December 31, 2006. This amount increases linearly to a maximum payout of 45% of base salary at December 31, 2006, if Bowater&#146;s TSR equals or exceeds 90% of the highest TSR in the peer group. The
group of peer companies includes all of Bowater&#146;s peer companies included in the Dow Jones Paper Products Group listed in the Total Shareholder Return chart on page 22 of this Proxy Statement except for Pope &amp; Talbot, Inc. and Caraustar
Industries, Inc. (which were excluded because they are single-product companies) and also includes ten other paper and forest products companies which the Committee believes the investment community views as investment opportunities similar to
Bowater (Abitibi Consolidated Inc., Boise Cascade Corporation, Georgia Pacific Corp., Glatfelter P.H. Co., Louisiana-Pacific Corp., Norske Skog Canada Inc., Rayonier Inc., Stora Enso Corporation, UPM Kymmene Corp. and Weyerhaeuser Company). Payouts
under the discretionary component of the plan may be awarded in the discretion of the Committee at the end of the plan cycle based upon the Committee&#146;s assessment of management&#146;s performance during the plan cycle. The MTIP provides for
maximum payouts in the event of a change in control and for pro rata awards in the case of death, disability, retirement or the sale of the business unit in which the participant is employed, provided the executive has participated in the plan cycle
for at least one year.<B></B> </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Stock Options </B></FONT></P> <P

&#147;Option/SAR Grants in Last Fiscal Year&#148; table on page 24. The number of stock options granted to each executive officer was based on the executive&#146;s position rank. Each of the options granted to an executive had an exercise price
equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Accordingly, the options have value to the option holder only if the stock price appreciates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

with management, alternative equity compensation structures based on restricted stock for the Committee&#146;s consideration. The Committee expects to decide upon a revised equity compensation structure by early 2006. </FONT></P> <P

SIZE="2">Bowater has adopted a Mid-Term Incentive Plan (&#147;MTIP&#148;). The MTIP provides for rolling three-year plan cycles, the first of which runs from January 1, 2003 to December 31, 2005, and the second of which runs from January 1, 2004 to
December 31, 2006. The MTIP is designed to link rewards of key executives to the performance of Bowater&#146;s Common Stock and to encourage the generation of cash flow from operations. Awards may be paid in any form, including without limitation,
cash, stock, restricted stock, phantom stock, stock options, and stock appreciation rights. No payouts under the plan will occur until after completion of the 2003-2005 cycle, and payouts under the MTIP will be made only to the extent that Bowater
generates cash from operations in excess of normal dividends paid during the plan cycle sufficient to fund the awards. Potential payouts under the MTIP are shown in the table below.<B></B> </FONT></P> <P

135% of their 2005 base salary under the discretionary component of the plan. The performance award formula computes a payout percentage based on the total shareholder return (&#147;TSR&#148;) of Bowater compared to a group initially consisting of
14 peer companies beginning with a payout of 50% of 2005 year-end base salary if Bowater&#146;s TSR equals the peer group&#146;s average TSR and increasing linearly to a maximum payout of 135% of 2005 year-end base salary if Bowater&#146;s TSR
equals or exceeds 90% of the highest TSR in the peer group. For the 2004&#150;2006 plan cycle, if Bowater&#146;s TSR equals the peer group&#146;s average TSR, participants may receive a payout of 16.67% of base salary at December 31, 2006. This
amount increases linearly to a maximum payout of 45% of base salary at December 31, 2006, if Bowater&#146;s TSR equals or exceeds 90% of the highest TSR in the peer group. Payouts under the discretionary component of the plan may be awarded in the
discretion of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee at the end of the plan cycle based upon the Committee&#146;s assessment of management&#146;s achievements during the plan cycle. The group of peer companies includes all of Bowater&#146;s
peer companies included in the Dow Jones Paper Products Group listed in the Total Shareholder Return chart on page 22 of this Proxy Statement except for Pope &amp; Talbot, Inc. and Caraustar Industries, Inc. (which were excluded because they are
single-product companies), and also includes ten other paper and forest products companies which the Committee believes the investment community views as investment opportunities similar to Bowater (Abitibi Consolidated Inc., Boise Cascade
Corporation, Georgia Pacific Corp., Glatfelter P.H. Co., Louisiana-Pacific Corp., Norske Skog Canada Inc., Rayonier Inc., Stora Enso Corporation, UPM Kymmene Corp. and Weyerhaeuser Company). The MTIP provides for maximum payouts in the event of a
change in control and for pro rata awards in the case of death, disability, retirement or the sale of the business unit in which the participant is employed, provided the executive has participated in the plan cycle for at least one year. See the

financial interests with those of shareholders. In order to be eligible for future bonus payments, senior executives are required to own stock with a value equal to a specified multiple of their base salaries. The requisite multiples are three for
the Chief Executive Officer, two for executive vice presidents, and one-half to two for senior vice presidents, corporate vice presidents, divisional vice presidents and others, depending on their respective position ranks. In addition, directors
are expected to own stock having a value equal to three times their annual retainers. Up to one-half of the ownership requirement must be satisfied through Common Stock or Exchangeable Shares owned outright or through Bowater benefit plans; the
remainder may be met through vested stock options or vested equity participation rights. Covered individuals are expected to comply fully with these guidelines within three to four years after the executive&#146;s employment with Bowater or
promotion to a covered position, or the director&#146;s election to the Board. As of February 1, 2005 (the plan&#146;s measurement date), the covered directors and officers were substantially in compliance with the Stock Retention Program.

are payable under the following plans: a qualified plan covering all salaried employees, which provides pension benefits based on earnings; a nonqualified benefits restoration plan, which provides a make-up of qualified plan benefits limited by the
imposition of statutory Code limitations; and a nonqualified supplemental plan covering designated senior executives including the Named Executive Officers (the &#147;Supplemental Plan&#148;), which provides benefits in addition to those under the
other two plans. The definition of compensation under these three plans includes those categories of compensation under the salary and bonus headings in the Summary Compensation Table and does not include compensation in any of the other headings of
the Summary Compensation Table. The Supplemental Plan provides for vesting of accrued benefits in the event of a change in control followed by termination of employment of a covered employee not for cause. The Supplemental Plan also provides that
benefits payable to a participant who retires before age 60 are subject to a reduction of .5% for each full month of retirement before age 60. The two other plans described above provide that in the event of a change in control, each participant in
the plans will become 100% vested in his accrued benefits. This table assumes retirement in 2004 with payments beginning at age 65 and is calculated on a 60% joint and survivor annuity basis for married participants and on a single-life annuity
basis for unmarried participants. As of December 31, 2004, the individuals listed in the Summary Compensation Table above had the following final average earnings (as defined above) and credited number of years of service: Mr. </FONT>

Group, Qu&eacute;bec. BMO Nesbitt Burns was a member of the initial purchasers syndicate for Bowater&#146;s June 2003 private placement of an aggregate principal amount of $400 million of 6.5% Senior Notes due 2013 and a member of the underwriters
syndicate for Bowater&#146;s March 2004 public offering of an aggregate principal amount of $250 million of Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2010. The principal amount of notes allotted to BMO Nesbitt Burns in these transactions was $32.0 million and
$17.5 million, respectively, and BMO received an initial purchasers&#146; or underwriters&#146; discount of $400,000 and $262,500, respectively, in these transactions. The Bank of Montreal, an affiliate of BMO Nesbitt Burns, is one of the creditors
under the Bowater Incorporated revolving credit agreement. At December 31, 2004, the Bank of Montreal&#146;s commitments under the revolving credit agreement were $55.0 million, and on that date the Bank of Montreal&#146;s share of the outstanding
balance was $4.8 million. Mr. M&eacute;nard did not receive any portion of BMO Nesbitt Burns&#146; or the Bank of Montreal&#146;s fees as direct compensation and benefited from these transactions only to the extent that BMO Nesbitt Burns and the
Bank of Montreal, as entities, benefited. Bowater believes that its arrangements with BMO Nesbitt Burns and the Bank of Montreal are on terms as favorable as could be obtained from unrelated parties. </FONT></P> <P

services prior to the rendering of the services. The Audit Committee may not approve the provision of non-audit services that the SEC prohibits independent auditors from performing for their audit clients or that are otherwise inconsistent with the
independent auditor&#146;s independence. The Audit Committee is required to establish annually a budget for services to be performed by Bowater&#146;s independent accountants, and Bowater&#146;s management is required to track the independent
auditor&#146;s fees against the budget and report at least annually to the committee. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:6%"><FONT
