On February 15, 2007, Deltic Timber Corporation (“Deltic” or the “Company”) announced that three new members had been elected to its Board of Directors and that two founding members of the Board were leaving.

The three new members of the Board are: Randolph C. Coley, David L. Lemmon, and Robert B. Tudor, III. Committee assignments for the new members will be made at the Board of Directors organizational meeting which is scheduled following the Company’s 2007 Annual Stockholders Meeting. Upon their election to the Board, each individual was awarded 1,750 shares of time-based restricted stock under the Company’s 2002 Stock Incentive Plan. The terms of the awards are the same as for other grants to non-employee directors. The awards vest four years from the date of their grant and during the vesting period the recipient is entitled to vote the restricted shares and receive cash dividends that may be declared on the common stock of the Company.
