Work includes. The Contractor will perform the following Work during the Forest Planning & Silviculture activities for the specified Area of Operation in accordance with the Specifications noted below, in the Site Plan (or equivalent) and Taan Standard Operating Procedures as determined by Taan Forest, including: Applicable (indicated by “X”) Description Forestry & Silviculture, or similar Surveys - Stocking and Free Growing: Complete surveys according to the BC Ministry of Forests “Silviculture Survey Procedures Manual” (or equivalent) Surveys -Site Degradation and Permanent Access: Complete Site Degradation and Permanent Access surveys consistent with the Taan SOP. Taan Forest – Schedule A: Planting Page 18 of 36 Planting: Quality Control – The Contractor is responsible for monitoring and recording the planting quality and density for all planters. Planting plots, placed on a grid (or representative coverage placed throughout the block) at one plot per hectare, shall be provided in writing (digital excel file) to the Company Representative on a weekly basis (at minimum) or more frequently if quality or logistical reasons arise. Location of Contractor plots must be easily identified in the field with ribbon hung at 1.3 m or higher, and a ribbon secured on the ground indicating plot centre. Each plot ribbon shall be labelled and dated with a black permanent marker. The Contractor shall independently ensure the standards are met and any necessary corrective action is promptly completed. The B.C. Ministry of Forests Planting Quality Inspection System will be used as a guide for determining Planting Quality. Planting Quality may be subject to additional criteria as described in this contract. Planting tools – Shovels with a minimum blade length of 22 cm. Any shovel blades less than 22cm will not be permitted. Bag up Requirements – No more than 2 bundles of each tree species may be unwrapped in the planters bag while planting. Planter bags are must not be overfilled to the point where the integrity of the tree plug is compromised (i.e. loosing soil, squished, broken leaders). Seedlots - Allocate seedlots as per the Appendix 1: 2020 Planting Allocation. Do not mix or intersperse seedlots of the same species. Keep multiple seedlots clearly separated on the block with specific locations clearly noted on the Final Contractor Planting Map that will be submitted with the planting supervisor/xxxxxxx’x notes as per #11 of the Responsibility Description section of the contract. Tree Spacing - Vary inter-tree spacing to achieve preferred microsite planting, utilizing minimum and contract spacing. Unless otherwise directed a 1.5m minimum inter- tree spacing (MITD) is acceptable in areas where microsite selection is limited, when spacing off of an acceptable natural (described in the Responsibility Details section) and when adjacent unplantable areas greater than 6m across (i.e. standing water, rocky outcrops or slash piles). Failure to use minimum spacing where necessary may be recorded as a missed spot. Microsite Selection - Plant trees in sites appropriate to acceptable microsite specifications described and avoid unacceptable microsites, as described in the Responsibility Description section. Road Sides - Plant road sides (i.e. seedlings planted off branch and spur roads can be planted no less than 1 metre from the road and 2 metres off of mainlines i.e. from top of ditch line or from end of the road prism, etc.). On spur and branch roads that will never be used for future road development or are deactivated, plant 1m off running surface. Reduce the inter-tree distance for the first row along the road to 1.5 metres. Plant road cuts and fills where feasible on sloped ground. No planting in the ditch below the level of the road surface. No planting between the ditch and the road unless otherwise directed by the Company representative. Screefing - Limited to loose debris, the litter layer and grass. Thick grass requires a 30 cm (12 inch) square screef (enough that the grass root mat has been removed), with the seedling in the centre. Deep screefs which leave the trees in a depression/ in a “pit” is not permitted. Debris (i.e. snow, rocks, litter, branches or decomposed red rot) is not permitted in the planting hole. Seedling Depth - Seedlings are to be planted so that the top of the plug is completely covered by soil or suitable cohesive organics. Optimum soil depth above the top of the plug is 1.5 cm (one finger width). More than 3 cm (2 fingers) is too deep unless it is under loose composed litter. Lateral branches are not to be buried. Seedling Vertical Alignment - Seedlings shall be planted vertically with the plug kept straight in the hole, with no ‘J’ or ‘banana’ roots. A tree is considered to have a ‘J- root’ if it is bent by more than the width of the plug and will be counted as a fault tree. Plugs are not to be jammed into thin soils (<15 cm depth). If thin productive soils exist, use a smaller stock type i.e. 412 or 410. Seedling Tightness - Seedlings are to be planted firmly, hand closed, with no air pockets. A properly planted seedling can be pulled from the hole with some, but not excessive, resistance and no damage to the roots or foliage. Tight, stomped in or back cut trees are not acceptable and will be counted as fault trees. Seedling Damage –Tree damage is unacceptable, as defined by the MFLNRO Planting Inspection Booklet “Planting Fault Codes – Damage to Seedlings (B.C. Ministry of Forests Planting Quality Inspection System). All seedling damage will be identified as a fault tree. Evaluating Prescribed Densities - Prescribed stocking levels will be used to determine the number of plantable spots for each sample plot. At 900sph if there were 4 trees in the plot, the missing tree would not be recorded as a missed spot as this would be considered normal variation in spacing. However, if an area greater than 0.5 ha was found to have been planted consistently with 4 trees or less per plot then that area would require additional trees. Excess Trees - Prescribed stocking levels will be used to determine the number of plantable spots for each sample plot. For example, with a target density of 1000sph, 7 trees planted would be recorded as 2 excess, while 6 planted would be consideration acceptable variation. However, plots having 6 or more trees over an area larger than

Sub-Standard Results – Planting Quality: If planting quality is determined to be less than 92.6%, a quality-related pay reduction may be administered as per the quality-related payment calculation described in the Responsibility Details section below. If planting quality is less than 85% for an area greater than 0.5ha, the area may require a rework or no payment will be received for the trees planted in the area. Rework involving tree excavation requires the prior authorization of the Company Representative. Rework involving tree excavation shall not be authorized, where in the sole judgment of the Company Representative, the relative health of the tree will consequently be jeopardized. Seedling Protection - Installation or maintenance of seedling protectors shall be as prescribed by the Company Representative.
