lives of finite-lived purchased intangible assets to determine if any adjustments to the useful lives
were necessary. Based on this review, management determined that no adjustments to the useful
lives of finite-lived purchased intangible assets were necessary.
11. Timber Notes Receivable
In October 2004, OfficeMax sold its timberlands as part of the Sale. In exchange for the
timberlands, the Company received timber installment notes receivable in the amount of
$1,635 million, which were credit enhanced with guarantees. The guarantees were issued by highly-
rated financial institutions and were secured by the pledge of underlying collateral notes issued by
the credit enhancement banks. The timber installment notes receivable are 15-year non-amortizing.
There are two notes that total $817.5 million bearing interest at 4.982% and a third note in the
amount of $817.5 million bearing interest at 5.112%. Interest earned on all of the notes is received
semiannually. See the sub-caption ‘‘Timber Notes’’ in Note 12, Debt, for additional information
concerning a securitization transaction involving the timber installment notes receivable.
