                                  ------------

          3.1.  Available Shares.  G-P shall make 200,000 shares of Stock (as
                ----------------
defined prior to December 17, 1997) available for Stock grants under this Plan
from G-P's authorized but unissued Stock; provided, however, that as a
consequence of the approval of the Letter Stock Transaction by the shareholders
on December 16, 1997, on and after December 17, 1998, the available shares shall
consist of 200,000 shares of Group Stock and 200,000 shares of Timber Stock.

          3.2  Grants.
               ------
          (a)  Annual Grants.
               -------------

               (i) May 3, 1995.  Each person who is an Outside Director on
                   -----------
     May 3, 1995 shall be granted 200 shares of Stock subject to the terms and
     conditions set forth in this Plan.

               (ii) May 15, 1996.  Each person who is an Outside Director on
                    ------------
     May 15, 1996 shall be granted a number of shares of Stock subject to the
     terms and conditions set forth in this Plan, which number shall be
     determined by dividing $15,000 by the Market Price of a share of Stock on
     such date and rounding the resulting number to the nearest whole share of
     Stock.

               (iii) May 15, 1997.  Each person who is an Outside Director on
                     ------------
     May 15, 1997 shall be granted a number of shares of Stock subject to the
     terms and conditions set forth in this Plan, which number shall be
     determined by dividing $40,000 by the Market Price of a share of Stock on
     such date and rounding the resulting number to the nearest whole share of
     Stock.

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

               (iv) May 15, 1998 and thereafter.  Each person who is an Outside
                    ---------------------------
     Director on May 15, 1998 or on May 15 of any subsequent year shall (so long
     as a sufficient number of shares of Group Stock and Timber Stock remain
     available for grants under Section 3.1) be granted a number of shares of
     Group Stock and an equal number of shares of Timber Stock subject to the
     terms and conditions set forth in this Plan, which number shall be
     determined by dividing $40,000 by the sum of the Market Prices of a share
     of Group Stock and a share of Timber Stock on such date and rounding the
     resulting number to the nearest whole share.

          (b)  Prorated Grants.  If in any calendar year, a person is initially
               ---------------
elected as an Outside Director after May 15 of such year but prior to May 1 of
the next following calendar year, he or she shall be granted a prorated grant of
Group Stock and Timber Stock (so long as a sufficient number of shares of Stock
remain available for grants under Section 3.1).  Stock granted under this
Section 3.2(b) shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan.  The
number of shares of Group Stock and of Timber Stock in any prorated grant shall
be determined as follows:

               (i) Proration.  Multiply $40,000 by a fraction, the numerator
                   ---------
     of which is the number of calendar months (if any) in the period commencing
     on the date the Outside Director was elected to the Board and ending on
     April 30 of the next following calendar year, and the denominator of which
     is 12.

               (ii) Number of Shares.  Divide the result in paragraph (i) by
                    ----------------
     the sum of the Market Prices of a share of Group Stock and a share of
     Timber Stock on the later of the date the Outside Director is initially
     elected to the Board and July 30, 1998 (the "Stock Price Date"), and round
     the resulting number to the nearest whole share.

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

Prorated grants under this Section 3.2(b) shall be effective as of the Stock
Price Date for such grant as defined in Section 3.2(b)(ii).

          3.2A.  Special Grant Upon Conversion of Retirement Benefit.  In the
                 ---------------------------------------------------
event that, pursuant to Section 8.3 of the Georgia-Pacific Corporation Directors
Retirement Program (the "Retirement Plan"), an Outside Director participating in
this Plan waives in writing all rights with respect to his/her accrued
retirement benefit under the Retirement Plan prior to May 15, 1997, such Outside
Director shall receive on May 15, 1997 a special grant of Stock under this Plan
in consideration of such waiver.  The number of shares of Stock comprising such
special grant shall be the number of shares computed in accordance with the
procedures specified in Section 8.3 of the Retirement Plan, and such shares
shall be subject to all the same terms and conditions as any other shares
granted under this Plan.

          3.3.  No Transfer or Other Disposition.  An Outside Director shall not
                --------------------------------
have the right to sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber or
dispose of any shares of Stock granted under this Plan during the Restriction
Period with respect to such Stock and, during such Restriction Period, G-P shall
retain custody of the certificate which represents such Stock.

          3.4.  Dividends, Voting and Other Rights.  Except as set forth in (S)
                ----------------------------------
3.3, an Outside Director shall have the entire beneficial interest in the shares
of Stock granted to him or to her under (S) 3.2 and shall have all the rights
and privileges of a shareholder with respect to such shares of Stock, including
the right to receive dividends on such Stock and to vote such Stock.

          3.5.  Forfeiture.  If an Outside Director's status as such terminates
                ----------
for any reason other than his or her death, his or her Retirement or at G-P's
request as a result of a disability, he or she shall forfeit all shares of Stock
granted to him or her under this Plan and all

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

of his or her rights and privileges as a shareholder with respect to such Stock
immediately shall terminate.

          3.6.  Distribution of Shares Upon Lapse of Restriction.  Upon the
                ------------------------------------------------
termination of an Outside Director's Restriction Period, the shares of Stock
granted to him/her shall be issued to him/her without any restrictive legend
relating to this Plan, provided, however, that an Outside Director may elect to
have his/her Stock distributed in three equal annual installments, the first of
which shall be made on the date his/her Restriction Period ends with an
additional installment on each of the next two anniversaries of that date.  The
amount of the first installment shall be 1/3 of the shares of Stock attributable
to all grants theretofore made to the Outside Director under this Plan (rounded
up to the next whole share); the amount of the second installment shall be 1/2
of the then remaining shares of Stock attributable to all grants theretofore
made to the Outside Director under this Plan (rounded up to the next whole
share); and the amount of the last installment shall be all the then remaining
shares of Stock attributable to all grants theretofore made to the Outside
Director under this Plan (rounded up to the next whole share).  Stock subject to
a 3-year distribution election under this Section 3.6 and not yet distributed
will continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan until
distributed.  An election under this Section 3.6 must be in writing in a form
acceptable to the Plan Administrator and must be actually received by the Plan
Administrator prior to the date on which time during the period during which the
election may be made, but becomes irrevocable upon the expiration of the
election period.  In the event of the death of the electing Outside Director
under circumstances requiring a distribution or a continuing distribution of
Stock from this Plan on his/her behalf, such distribution shall be made to the
Outside Director's estate unless the Outside

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

Director has specified in writing (on a form acceptable to and actually received
by the Plan Administrator prior to his/her death) an alternative beneficiary.

                                     (S) 4.

                                 MISCELLANEOUS
                                 -------------

          4.1.  Administration.  The Governance Committee of G-P's Board of
                --------------
Directors (or any successor to such committee) shall be the administrator of
this Plan and shall have the power to interpret this Plan and be responsible for
the operation and administration of this Plan.  The Governance Committee shall
interpret this Plan and operate and administer this Plan in a manner which shall
qualify the grants of Stock made to Outside Directors under this Plan for an
exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section 16(b) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time.

          4.2.  References.  All references made to sections under this Plan
                ----------
shall be to sections of this Plan.

          4.3.  Construction.  The headings and subheadings in this Plan have
                ------------
been included for convenience of reference only.  This Plan shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia.

          4.4.  Stock Transfer.  If any Stock issued under this Plan has not
                --------------
been registered under any applicable federal or state securities laws at the
time such Stock is issued, G-P shall have the right, as a condition to the
issuance of such Stock, to require the Outside Director to make such
representations or take such other or additional action to satisfy any
requirements of, or any exemptions to, any applicable state or federal
securities laws respecting such issuance as G-P deems necessary or appropriate
under the circumstances, and no such

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

issuance shall be made under this Plan until such condition or conditions have
been satisfied to G-P's satisfaction in full.

          4.5.  Shareholder Approval.  This Plan shall be null and void if G-P's
                --------------------
shareholders fail to approve this Plan at a duly called meeting of such
shareholders held on or before May 1, 1996, and any grant of Stock under this
Plan before the date of such approval shall be made subject to such approval.

          4.6.  Amendment.  The Board of Directors of G-P may amend this Plan
                ---------
from time to time, provided, however, that no such amendment shall be made to
this Plan more often than once every six months (other than to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or other applicable law, as
amended, and any related rules or regulations), and no amendment shall become
effective absent the approval of G-P's shareholders if the effect of such
amendment would be to

          (a)  increase the number of securities which may be issued under this
               Plan, or

          (b)  materially modify the requirements as to eligibility for
               participation in this Plan.

          4.7.  Termination.  The Board of Directors of G-P shall have the right
                -----------
to terminate this Plan at any time, provided that the Plan shall continue in
accordance with its terms in effect immediately prior to such termination with
respect to grants made prior to the date such termination is approved by the
Board of Directors.
