Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
Stock Purchase Agreement
On February 21, 2011, through our wholly-owned
subsidiary Boise Paper Holdings, L.L.C. (Boise), we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (Agreement) to purchase Tharco Packaging, Inc. (Tharco). By the terms of the Agreement, which contains customary representations and warranties, we will
acquire all of Tharcos outstanding stock for a purchase price of $200 million, subject to the adjustments set forth in the Agreement. A portion of the purchase price will be held in escrow to fund post-closing purchase price adjustments and to
secure Tharcos obligations to indemnify Boise for breaches of representations, warranties, or covenants in the Agreement. We expect the transaction to close in early March 2011. The foregoing description of the Stock Purchase Agreement is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Stock Purchase Agreement, which is to be filed with our Quarterly Report on Form10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2011.
On February 22, 2011,
we issued a news release announcing we had entered into the Stock Purchase Agreement described above. A copy of our news release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
Management will host a webcast and conference call today, February 22, 2011, at 12:00 p.m. Eastern. To link to the webcast, go to our website at www.BoiseInc.com and click on the link to the webcast under Webcasts & Presentations on
