DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
On June 27, 2014, Rayonier Inc. (the “Company”) merged the Rayonier Inc. Savings Plan for Non-Bargaining Unit Hourly Employees at Certain Locations (the “Certain Locations Plan”)
into the Rayonier Investment and Savings Plan for Salaried Employees. Consequently, the Certain Locations Plan no longer exists and the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to the Certain Locations Plan Registration Statement (as defined below) in accordance with the Company’s undertaking set forth in Part II, Item 9 of such registration statement.
Certain Locations Plan
The Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to deregister certain common shares, no par value (“Common
Shares”), of the Company previously registered for issuance under the Certain Locations Plan by the Company pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-152505), filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on July 24, 2008 (the “Certain Locations Plan Registration Statement”). The Certain Locations Plan Registration Statement registered an aggregate of 500,000 Common Shares and an indeterminate amount of interests in the Certain Locations Plan (the “Certain Locations Plan Interests”). The Certain Locations Plan Registration Statement is hereby amended to deregister all Common Shares that were previously
registered with respect to the Certain Locations Plan under the Certain Locations Plan Registration Statement and that remain unissued as of the date hereof and all Certain Locations Plan Interests that were registered under the Certain Locations Plan Registration Statement and that remain unissued as of the date hereof. After giving effect to this Post-Effective Amendment, there will be no remaining registered Common Shares available for issuance with respect to the Certain Locations Plan.
