Page 6 of 6 Pages SCHEDULE A P. H. Glatfelter Company Item 6 - Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person: The information contained in this statement relates to the shares of Common Stock that are held by PNC Bank, National Association, as trustee, executor, custodian or agent (collectively, the "Shares").(1) In accordance with Section 13d-3, certain of the Shares may be beneficially owned by more than one person. Of the Shares held in trusts, certain persons, including the settlors, trustees, beneficiaries and others named in the trust documents or documents ancillary thereto, may have the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, such Shares. As to the Shares that are held as executor, custodian or agent, certain persons, including account owners, have the power, under law or by contract, to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, such Shares. Notwithstanding the beneficial ownership of the Shares by several persons, the total number of Shares is 15,158,782. The following person may have the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, a number of Shares that represents more than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock: George H. Glatfelter 5715 Colonial Valley Road Spring Grove, PA 17362 At December 31, 2003, George H. Glatfelter was a co-trustee, along with PNC Bank, National Association, of five trusts holding an aggregate of 718,649 Shares, and may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power as to all of such Shares. He also had a right to withdraw an aggregate of 901,161 Shares from two trusts(2) and a right to purchase an aggregate of 2,793,810 Shares from eleven trusts. In addition, he had an annual, noncumulative right of withdrawal equal to the greater of 5% or $5,000 from the two trusts holding an aggregate of 86,816 Shares.(3) ---------- (1) PNC Bank, National Association, as Bank Constituent and Trust Agent (as defined in the Voting Trust Agreement (as defined below)), and The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., as the parent of PNC Bank, National Association, also reports their beneficial ownership as to 12,504,403 of the shares of Common Stock reported herein (the "Trust Shares"), as previously reported on a statement on an amendment to Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 2002. The Trust Shares are held by the P. H. Glatfelter Family Shareholders' Voting Trust established pursuant to agreement dated as of July 1, 1993 (the "Voting Trust Agreement"). PNC Bank, National Association, as Bank Constituent and Trust Agent, has certain powers under the Voting Trust Agreement that may be construed as voting power as to the Trust Shares. The Trust Shares are also included in this statement on Schedule 13G because they may be withdrawn from the Voting Trust by certain fiduciary trusts of which PNC Bank, National Association is a trustee or co-trustee, generally within 60 days. Such right of withdrawal may be deemed to continue the beneficial ownership of the Trust Shares by PNC Bank, National Association, as trustee or co-trustee of such fiduciary trusts, and The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., as its parent corporation, that existed prior to the establishment of the Voting Trust. (2) All of such Shares are Trust Shares (as defined in note 1 above). (3) George H. Glatfelter serves as a co-trustee of both of these trusts. All of such Shares are Trust Shares.
