Registered ownership occurs when the beneficial owner of the security is "registered" or recorded on the books or records of the corporation issuing the shares. The registered stockholder is considered the "stockholder of record," and may be issued stock certificates and/or hold shares in book entry form. Registered ownership is also known as "direct" ownership.

The registered owner is known to the corporation as one of its stockholders. Therefore, registered owners receive all corporate communications, dividends, annual reports and proxy material directly from the company.

When investors purchase stock through a broker, the shares are considered to be held in "street name" and are registered as belonging to your broker. Therefore, dividends and materials are delivered to your broker, as the registered owner, and are then forwarded to you by the broker or broker's agent.

The Board of directors determines when and how often dividends are paid.

LP paid dividends beginning in 1973 and paid quarterly dividends from March 1977 through August 2001. On November 3, 2001, in order to preserve the company's financial flexibility, the Board suspended payment of the quarterly dividend pending improvement of the overall market and the company's financial condition. When the company’s financial condition markedly improved, on February 2, 2004, the Board reinstated the quarterly cash dividend to provide a fair and appropriate return to shareholders. Dividends were also suspended in August 2008 due to market conditions and reinstated Feb. 13, 2018.

As a shareholder, you are entitled to receive any cash dividends paid by LP on the shares you hold on the record date. The record date is the designated date on which shares must be held to receive a dividend payment. The Board of Directors determines the record date, the payable date and the dividend rate.

If you are a registered shareholder with Computershare Trust Company, your 1099-DIV will either be attached to your 4th quarter dividend or be mailed to you by January 31. Dividend income is reportable whether a dividend payment was issued by check, transferred directly to your bank account, or reinvested into additional shares of stock through the dividend reinvestment plan.

To obtain this dividend information or a duplicate Form 1099-DIV, you may contact Computershare through its website, http://www.computershare.com/investor or by calling 1-800-756-8200 (TDD 781-575-4592 for hearing-impaired stockholders).
