February&nbsp;27, 2009, Bowater Incorporated (&#147;Bowater&#148;), together with its parent AbitibiBowater Inc. (&#147;AbitibiBowater&#148;), Bowater Newsprint South LLC (&#147;Newsprint South&#148;), a subsidiary of AbitibiBowater, and certain of
Bowater&#146;s subsidiaries and affiliates, entered into amendments (the &#147;Amendments&#148;), to Bowater&#146;s U.S. and Canadian credit agreements. The Amendment to the U.S. credit agreement was entered into among AbitibiBowater, Bowater,
Newsprint South and certain subsidiaries and affiliates of Bowater and Newsprint South, certain lenders party thereto and Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent for the various lenders under that credit agreement. The Amendment
to the Canadian credit agreement was entered into among AbitibiBowater, Bowater, Bowater Newsprint South, Bowater Canadian Forest Products Inc., an indirect subsidiary of Bowater (&#147;BCFPI&#148;), and certain subsidiaries and affiliates of
Bowater, Newsprint South and BCFPI, certain lenders party thereto and The Bank of Nova Scotia, as Administrative Agent for the lenders party to that credit agreement. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

Bowater&#146;s U.S. and Canadian credit agreements to, among other things, (i)&nbsp;increase the commitment under the Canadian credit agreement in an aggregate amount of $30,000,000 in order to add two additional tranches of loans (the
&#147;Additional Loans&#148;), one tranche in the principal amount of $12,000,000, representing the Additional Liquidity previously funded, and the other in the principal amount of $18,000,000, representing loans funded upon the closing of the
Amendments, (ii)&nbsp;provide that the Additional Loans are not subject to the borrowing base requirements contained in the Canadian credit agreement, (iii)&nbsp;allow the collateral securing the Canadian credit agreement (other than certain fixed
assets of Newsprint South and certain of its subsidiaries) to secure the Additional Loans on a last-out basis, (iv)&nbsp;temporarily increase the limit on the amount of foreign accounts receivable that may be included in the borrowing base,
(v)&nbsp;modify the scheduled reductions to the commitment amounts under each agreement and (vi)&nbsp;increase the interest rate under each agreement by 1.00%. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender&#146;s ratable portion of the amount to be borrowed on such date (which notice shall not release such Lender of its obligations hereunder), the Administrative Agent may

until paid, equal to (a)&nbsp;with respect to any amount to be borrowed denominated in Dollars, the product of (i)&nbsp;the amount not made available by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, multiplied by (ii)&nbsp;the daily average
