New Website Provides In-Depth Property Information and Ability to Connect with Land Specialists

SUMMERVILLE, SC (June 15, 2010)—MWV Community Development and Land Management, a division of MeadWestvaco Corp. (NYSE: MWV), today announced a new resource for land investors designed to improve the land buying experience. MWV Land Sales’ new website, www.mwvlandsales.com, simplifies the process of identifying and purchasing the ideal property for investment, recreation, conservation or a combination of uses.

“In our business, knowledge is the most valuable currency and our land specialists possess that in abundance,” said Kenneth T. Seeger, president, MWV Community Development and Land Management. “It’s their insight that forms the backbone of the new site, enabling site visitors and potential customers to quickly and easily identify properties aligned with their needs and connect with our specialists.”

At the heart of the site’s value is the dedicated team of MWV Land Specialists, a team of professional land managers with decades of experience working and residing in the areas where the company’s owned properties are located.

The new mwvlandsales.com site offers a number of distinct advantages for potential buyers. With “how to” tips on managing land written by MWV experts and links to the most current land investment and forest management news, the site makes vital information easily accessible. Unlike typical real estate listing sites, every property featured on the site is MWV-owned and has been professionally managed for maximum profitability by the company’s team of expert land managers. Features, such as quality road networks, superior tree genetics, leading forest management, and clearly marked boundaries, provide buyers with investment assurance.

Additional site features include detailed search options that enable a buyer find a specific property by location, total price, price per acre, intended usage and property size. Photos, printable maps, and interactive Google mapping also enhance the search process.

Specific property details, bios of MWV Land Specialists and other helpful information for outdoor enthusiasts, conservationists, timberland investors or other potential large property buyers are available now at www.mwvlandsales.com.
