Benefits Committee
Clearwater Paper Represented 401(k) Plan
Spokane, Washington

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of Clearwater Paper Represented 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2013, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2013, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is presented fairly, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

CLEARWATER PAPER REPRESENTED 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

(1)
Description of Plan
The following description of the Clearwater Paper Represented 401(k) Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information. Participants should refer to the summary plan description for the appropriate participating unit for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
(a)
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan established under the provisions of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (IRC), which includes a cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the IRC, and is subject to the applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).
On December 27, 2010, Clearwater Paper Corporation (Clearwater Paper) acquired Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc. (Cellu Tissue).
Effective as of January 2012, the Plan was amended as follows:
The Plan was renamed from the “Clearwater Paper Hourly 401(k) Plan.”
All represented employees of Cellu Tissue subsidiaries that are participating employers are eligible to participate in the Plan under the terms of the Plan.
Due to a merger of plans, $34.2 million was transferred to the Plan from the Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc. Retirement and Investment Plan and is included in “Merger of Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc. Retirement and Investment Plan” on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits. This amount consisted of account balances, loan balances and contributions receivable of $32.8 million, $1.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of former represented participants of the Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc. Retirement and Investment Plan.
The Clearwater Paper Salaried 401(k) Plan was renamed the “Clearwater Paper 401(k) Plan.” Non-represented hourly eligible employees previously participating in the Clearwater Paper Hourly 401(k) Plan are eligible to participate in the Clearwater Paper 401(k) Plan, and their account balances totaling approximately $5.6 million were transferred from the Plan to the Clearwater Paper 401(k) Plan.
(b)
Plan Sponsor and Administration
Clearwater Paper sponsors the Plan. The Plan is administered by the Clearwater Paper Benefits Committee. Mercer Trust Company and Mercer HR Services (collectively, Mercer) serve as the Trustee and record keeper, respectively.
(c)
Eligibility and Contributions
Effective January 2012, full-time regular represented employees (as defined in the Plan) of Clearwater Paper and participating subsidiaries (the Company), are eligible for participation in the Plan following 90 days of service (as defined in the Plan). The Plan provides that each eligible represented employee may elect a participating contribution equal to any whole percentage of pay period eligible earnings (as defined in the



5





CLEARWATER PAPER REPRESENTED 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

Plan), up to 25%, as specified in the appendix of the Plan applicable to the eligible employee’s participating unit. Eligible employees may also make rollover contributions representing distributions from certain other retirement plans. Eligible employees age 50 or older may elect additional catch-up contributions.
An after-tax Roth 401(k) contribution feature was added to the Plan in 2012.
Eligible employees at certain participating units are automatically enrolled in the Plan at a 3% deferral rate on a pre-tax basis 30 days after the employee becomes eligible unless he or she elects otherwise.
Employer contributions, including company match and base company contributions (if any), are negotiated with each of the employer group participating units. Eligible employees at certain sites are entitled to receive a base company contribution equal to a fixed percentage of a participant’s eligible earnings allocated on a per pay period basis. No employee contribution is required to receive this base company contribution and no loans or hardship withdrawals may be made from them. Employer contributions are tracked separately, from each other and other Plan contributions, as discussed below in Note 1(f).
Participants, at their discretion, direct the employer and employee contributions into the available investment options under the Plan.
All contributions are limited by certain restrictions as defined by the IRC.
(d)
Participant Accounts
A separate account is maintained for each participant of the Plan. Each account is credited with the employee and employer contributions and earnings thereon. Participant accounts are valued each day the market is open based on quoted market prices. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account
(e)
Investment Options
Participants may direct investment of their account balances in 1% increments into the investment options offered under the Plan, including registered investment company funds, the Clearwater Paper Stock Fund, and a collective trust.
Participants may change their investment elections and make transfers between investment options each day the market is open, subject to restrictions imposed by the registered investment companies and under the Plan. However, pursuant to Plan terms, a participant is not allowed to transfer existing account balances or direct new contributions to the Clearwater Paper Stock Fund if their balance in this fund is, or the direction causes it to be, 25% or more of the participant’s total investment balance in the Plan.
The account of any participant automatically enrolled in the Plan and not electing otherwise is invested in a designated qualified default investment alternative, that is, the T. Rowe Price Retirement Fund with the target date closest to the year in which that participant will reach age 65.
Any contributions or other payments made to the Plan without investment instructions are similarly invested in the age-appropriate T. Rowe Price Retirement Fund until such time as the participant chooses to reinvest

such funds. Transfers between certain investments may be temporarily held as cash balances prior to reinvestment.
(f)
Vesting and Forfeitures
A participant’s interest in all employee contribution accounts is fully vested and nonforfeitable at all times. A participant’s interest in his or her matching and base company contributions, if any, becomes vested based on the participant’s years of service and the vesting schedule for each location, which varies from two to six years for full vesting, as specified in the Plan.
A participant’s matching and base company contributions, if any, will become 100% vested if the Plan terminates, or if the participant attains age 65 while in service with the Company (or any affiliate), becomes totally and permanently disabled (as defined in the Plan) or dies while in service. The portion of a participant’s matching and base company contributions, if any, not vested will be forfeitable when the participant’s employment terminates.
As of the end of each year, forfeitures and the earnings on such forfeitures not used to restore the matching accounts of former participants rehired during that year may be credited against matching contributions for the following year, used to pay plan expenses, or a combination thereof. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, unallocated forfeitures totaled approximately $133,400 and $156,500, respectively. During 2013 and 2012, forfeitures totaling approximately $41,900 and $34,100, respectively, were used to reduce employer contributions and pay Plan expenses.
(g)
Notes Receivable from Participants
Participants may borrow 50% of their vested account balance up to a maximum of $50,000 (as reduced for notes outstanding during the one year preceding the new note), as provided by the Plan. The notes are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at a market rate, which is determined for the applicable notes during the applicable periods to be the prime rate in effect at the beginning of the month in which the note is taken. Repayment of principal and interest is generally paid ratably through payroll deductions. Notes outstanding at December 31, 2013, bear interest at various rates ranging from 3.25% to 8.00% and mature at various times through October 2030.
(h)
Distributions and Benefits
On termination of employment from Clearwater Paper and its affiliates, each participant may elect to receive payment in a lump sum equal to that participant’s vested interest in his or her account, roll his or her account balance into an IRA or another employer’s plan, or maintain his or her account in the Plan, subject to certain restrictions. If a participant's vested account balance is $1,000 or less, that participant will automatically receive the value of the vested interest in his or her account as a lump sum cash distribution, unless that participant elects otherwise. That participant is generally not permitted to maintain an account balance in the Plan.
Participants are permitted to make in-service and hardship withdrawals while still employed by the Company and its affiliates under certain conditions and from certain sources specified under the Plan. A participant’s right to contribute to the Plan will be suspended for up to six months upon receiving a hardship withdrawal.

CLEARWATER PAPER REPRESENTED 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

Effective January 2012, the Plan was amended to allow for rollover and age 59½ withdrawals while employed by the Company and its affiliates under certain circumstances.
(i)
Plan and Administrative Fees
Plan expenses are generally paid by the Company, except to the extent that expenses are paid from participant forfeitures of employer contributions. Loan service fees, fees associated with processing of qualified domestic relations orders, and certain trustee and recordkeeper expenses are paid for by the affected participant.
(j)
Party-in-Interest and Related-Party Transactions
Certain plan investments are managed by an affiliate or related party of Mercer. These transactions and transactions within the Clearwater Paper Stock Fund are considered party-in-interest transactions.
(k)
Net Transfers to Other Clearwater Paper Plans
Net transfers to other Clearwater Paper plans represent the net amount of participant account balances transferred during the year from the Plan to other plans sponsored by the Company and its affiliates as a result of the participants changing employment status within the Company and its affiliates.
(l)
Plan Termination
Although the Company expects to continue the Plan indefinitely, inasmuch as future conditions cannot be foreseen, the Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time and for any reason subject to the rules of ERISA and the collective bargaining agreements to which the Company is a party. In the event of plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their employer accounts.
(2)
Summary of the Significant Accounting Policies
(a)
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Investment contracts held by a defined contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined contribution plan attributable to fully benefit responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. The statements of net assets available for benefits present the fair value of the investment contracts as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value to contract value. The statements of changes in net assets available for benefits are prepared on a contract value basis.
(b)    Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Plan sponsor to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.



8





CLEARWATER PAPER REPRESENTED 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

(c)    Investment Valuation
The Plan’s investments are valued at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See Note 4 for a discussion of fair value measurements.
Below is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2013.

Mutual funds and common stock - The market-related value of Plan assets invested in debt and equity securities is based primarily on fair value (market prices). The fair value of investment securities traded on a national securities exchange is determined based on the last reported sales price; securities traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the last reported bid price. Investment securities for which market prices are not readily available, or for which market prices do not represent the value at the time of pricing, are valued by the investment manager based upon other inputs (including valuations of securities that are comparable in coupon, rating, maturity, and industry).

Collective trust fund - Investments in the collective trust fund are presented at net asset value, which is determined based on the unit value of the fund. Unit value is determined by an independent trustee, which sponsors the fund, by dividing the fund’s net assets by its units outstanding at the valuation date. The collective trust fund had a net asset value of $64,707,409 and $68,491,781 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, with no redemption policy and unfunded commitments are not applicable.

The Putnam Stable Value Fund ("Fund") invests in high-quality guaranteed investment contracts ("GICs") and similar contracts. The fund also invests up to 75% of its assets in security-backed investment contracts ("SBICs"). The Fund invests at least 5% of its assets in high-quality money market instruments, cash, cash equivalents and stable value funds with investment policies and other provisions similar to those of the Fund, and may invest without limit in these investments.

The preceding methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
(d)
Income Recognition
Net appreciation in fair value of investments represents net realized gains and losses and the change in unrealized appreciation from one period to the next. Interest is recorded when earned. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date basis.
(e)
Benefit Payments
Benefits are recorded when paid.

(f)
Notes Receivable from Participants
Notes receivable from participants are stated at the outstanding balance of the note plus accrued interest. Delinquent notes receivable are reclassified as distributions based upon the terms of the Plan document.
(g)
Subsequent Events
The Plan Administrator has evaluated other events and transactions occurring after the date of the statement of net assets through the date the financial statements were issued, and noted no other events that were subject to recognition or disclosure.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value accounting guidance establishes a framework for measuring fair value, which provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:



10





CLEARWATER PAPER REPRESENTED 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

 
Level 1
    
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Plan has the ability to access.
 
 
 
 
Level 2
    
Inputs to the valuation methodology include:
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
 
    
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
 
 
 
Level 3
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Plan investments at fair value:

Investment Risk
The Plan investments include shares of registered investment company funds, a collective trust, and common stock in the form of the Clearwater Paper Stock Fund. The underlying investments of such funds, in general, are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with such investments, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of underlying investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.
(6)
Tax Status
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has determined by a letter dated October 13, 2011, that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the IRC. The Plan has been amended since the IRS’s issuance of the determination letter. Management believes that the Plan is designed, and continues to operate, in compliance as a qualified plan.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The Plan is subject to audits by the IRS; however, there are currently no audits pending for any tax periods. The plan administrator believes that the Plan is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2010.
