By Lisa Kerner

Charlotte, N.C., Aug. 25 - Wausau Paper Corp. and Prudential Investment Management, Inc., along with certain affiliates, agreed to a second amendment of their existing March 31, 2010 note purchase and private shelf agreement, according to a form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Under the amended agreement, Wausau will issue $50 million of its series C senior notes on April 9, 2012.

The series C notes will bear interest at the rate of 4% and mature on June 30, 2016. Interest will be paid quarterly in arrears.

Proceeds will be used to fund Wausau's tissue expansion project and for other general corporate purposes.
