Explanatory Note

This Amendment is being filed solely to amend Item 5.07 of the Current Report on Form 8-K, “Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders,” filed by Clearwater Paper Corporation (the “Company”) on May 13, 2011 (the “Original 8-K”) to correct an inadvertent error in the identification of one of the individuals elected as a director.

 

Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The voting results for the election of directors included in the Original 8-K inadvertently identified Michael T. Riordan, rather than William T. Weyerhaeuser, as having been elected to serve as a Class III director of the Company. The voting results from the Original 8-K are shown below, with Mr. Weyerhaeuser’s name correctly listed as the nominee. All other dates and information set forth in the Original 8-K are correct.

Proposal 1 – Election of Directors

The following individuals were elected to serve as Class III directors to hold office until the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until the respective successors are duly elected and qualified:

 

Nominee		For		Against		Abstain		Broker Non-Votes
Fredric W. Corrigan		8,736,866		476,582		36,796		1,138,259
William T. Weyerhaeuser		8,773,984		469,815		6,445		1,138,259
