Regulation FD Disclosure |
Temple-Inland Inc. (the Company) today filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) an automatically effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3. This new shelf registration statement replaces the Company's previous shelf registration statement, which was filed in December 2005 and expired on December 1, 2008. Although the Company does not have any current commitments or intentions to sell securities, the shelf registration statement provides flexibility for the Company to issue equity, debt, or other types of securities through one or more methods of distribution. The terms of any future offering would be established at the time of offering subject to market conditions.
This report does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.
