Union Lumber Co. to Acquire Pocific Coqst Co. Holdings in lAendocino County, June I

Union Lumber Company has arranged for the purchase from the Pacific Coast Company of all of its timber holdings and plants in Mendocino County, California. The purchase as presently agreed upon is subject to ratification by the stockholders of the Pacific Coast Company. The properties involved include approximately 35,000 acres of timberland, a green veneer plant at Leggett, a sawmill and remanufacturing plant at Willits, and a sawmill at Wolf Creek, logging equipment, and inventories. The Wolf Creek mill is not now operating and Union Lumber Company has no plans to reopen it. The Pacific Coast Company's plywood plant at Sonoma, California, is not included in the purchase and will continue to be operated by the Pacific Coast Company.

This timberland acquisition by Union Lumber Company is in furtherance of a program long in existence to bring all of its forestlands under a sustained-yield program. The Pacific Coast Company timberland lies adjacent to and on the north and east sides of Union's holdihgs known as the Usal Tract. It is Union Lumber Company's plan to continue the logging, the operation of the veneer plant and the sawmill and remanufacturing plant, on substantially the Dresent schedules.

-

One of Union's objectives will be to correlate the production of the acquired plants with that of Union's Fort Bragg olant. This will result in imoroved utilization of raw maierials, better quality and a'wider range of products and better service for the customers of both companies. It is expected that production and employment will be maintained at present levels and on as nearly a year-round basis as practicable.

Union Lumber Company will not take over the management of the properties until the transaction is closed. The
