Exhibit 10.15

SEABOARD CORPORATION

EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE PLAN

1. OBJECTIVE

The Seaboard Corporation Executive Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan" or
"Plan") is designed to secure the full deductibility of bonus compensation
payable by Seaboard Corporation (the "Company") to any executive officer
(collectively the "Covered Employees") whose compensation is potentially subject
to the tax deduction limitations of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code").  All compensation payable hereunder to such
Covered Employees is intended to qualify as "performance-based compensation" as
described in Code Section 162(m)(4)(C).

2. ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

Only those Covered Employees of the Company who are selected by the Incentive
Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Company’s Board of Directors
(the "Board") shall be eligible to participate in the Incentive Plan.  Before or
at the time performance objectives are established for an "Incentive Period," as
defined below, the Committee will designate in writing which Covered Employees
are among those who may be eligible to participate in the Incentive Plan, and
shall in fact be participants for such Incentive Period.

3.

APPLICABILITY TO COMPANY PERFORMANCE AWARDS AND  COMPANY PLANS

The Plan shall serve as a Code Section 162(m) "platform" or "umbrella" plan such
that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, this Plan applies to all forms and
types of compensatory arrangements, awards, programs or plans sponsored or
maintained by the Company (the "Awards").  To the extent applicable and not
inconsistent with the terms of any other Company-sponsored compensation plan,
with the Board's and Company stockholders' approval of this Incentive Plan, the
terms and conditions of this Plan shall supplement such other Company-sponsored
compensation arrangements and Awards.

4.

PLAN YEAR, INCENTIVE PERIODS AND INCENTIVE OBJECTIVES

The applicable performance period (the "Incentive Period") for the Incentive
Plan shall be the Company's fiscal year beginning on January 1 and ending on
December 31.

Before the earlier of the 90th day of each Incentive Period or the day on which
25 percent of the Incentive Period has elapsed, the Committee shall establish in
writing, with respect to such Incentive Period, one or more performance goals, a
specific target objective or objectives with respect to such performance goals,
and an objective formula or method for computing the amount of performance
compensation payable to each participant under the Incentive Plan if the
performance goals are attained.  Notwithstanding the immediately preceding
sentence, for any Incentive Period, such goals, objectives and compensation
formulae or methods must be established such that the outcome of the goal or
objective is substantially uncertain at the time the Committee actually
establishes the goal or objective.

Any type of Award that is eligible to be granted under the Plan may be granted
to officers and employees as awards intended to satisfy the requirements of
"performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Code Section 162(m)
("Performance Awards").  The specific performance goals for Performance Awards
shall be established, on an absolute or relative basis, based on one or more of
the following business criteria ("Business Criteria") for the Company on a
segregated or consolidated basis, or for one or more of the Company's
subsidiaries, segments, divisions, or business units, as selected by the
Committee: 

(i) Earnings measures (either in the aggregate or on a per-Share basis),
including or excluding one or more of interest, taxes, depreciation,
amortization or other financial accounting measurements;

(ii) Operating profit (either in the aggregate or on a per-Share basis);

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

 

(iii)Operating income (either in the aggregate or on a per-Share basis);

(iv)Net earnings on either a LIFO or FIFO basis (either in the aggregate or on a
per-Share basis);

(v)Net income or loss (either in the aggregate or on a per-Share basis);

(vi)Cash flow provided by operations, either in the aggregate or on a per-Share
basis;

(vii)

Cash flow returns, including cash flow returns on invested capital (cash flow
from operating activities minus capital expenditures, the difference of which is
divided by the difference between total assets and non-interest bearing current
liabilities);

(viii)Ratio of debt to debt plus equity;

(ix)Net borrowing;

(x)Credit quality or debt ratings;

(xi)Inventory levels, inventory turn or shrinkage;

(xii) Revenues;

(xiii)Free cash flow (either in the aggregate or on a per-Share basis);

(xiv)Reductions in expense levels, determined either on a Company-wide basis or
with respect to any one or more business units;

(xv)Operating and maintenance cost management and employee productivity;

(xvi)Gross margin;

(xvii)Return measures (including return on assets, investment, equity, or
sales);

(xviii)Productivity increases;

(xix)Share price (including attainment of a specified per-Share price during the
Incentive Period; growth measures and total stockholder return or attainment by
the Shares of a specified price for a specified period of time);

(xx)Growth or rate of growth of any of the above Business Criteria set forth in
this Section;

(xxi)Strategic business criteria, consisting of one or more objectives based on
meeting specified revenue, market share, market penetration, geographic business
expansion goals, objectively identified project milestones, production volume
levels, cost targets, customer satisfaction, and goals relating to acquisitions
or divestitures;

(xxii)Preservation of Company or shareholder value during adverse business
conditions;

(xxiii)Achievement of business or operational goals such as market share and/or
business development; and/or

(xxiv)Accomplishment of mergers, acquisitions, dispositions, public offerings,
or similar extraordinary business transactions;

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

 

provided that applicable Business Criteria may be applied on a pre- or post-tax
basis; and provided further that the Committee may, when the applicable
performance goals are established, provide that the formula for such goals may
include or exclude items to measure specific objectives, such as losses from
discontinued operations, extraordinary gains or losses, the cumulative effect of
accounting changes, acquisitions or divestitures, foreign exchange impacts, and
any unusual, nonrecurring gain or loss.  As established by the Committee, the
Business Criteria may include, without limitation, GAAP and non-GAAP financial
measures. In addition to the foregoing Business Criteria, the Business Criteria
shall also include any performance goals which are set forth in any other
Company bonus, incentive or other compensation-related plan, if any, which has
been approved by the Company's stockholders, which are incorporated herein by
reference. Such performance goals shall be set by the Committee within the time
period prescribed by, and shall otherwise comply with the requirements of, Code
Section 162(m).

Target levels for Awards are determined by the Committee.  To the extent
consistent with the goal of providing for deductibility under Code Section
162(m), performance goals may be based upon a participant's attainment of
personal objectives with respect to any of the above-listed Business
Criteria.  Measurements of the Company’s or a participant's performance against
the performance goals established by the Committee shall be objectively
determinable. 

5.

DETERMINATION OF AMOUNTS OF AWARDS EARNED

As soon as practicable after the end of each Incentive Period, the Committee
shall certify, in writing (unless Code Section 162(m) does not require
certification in writing), to what extent the Company and the participant(s)
have achieved the performance goal or goals for such Incentive Period, including
the specific target objective or objectives and the satisfaction of any other
material terms of the Award, and the Committee shall calculate the amount of
each participant's Award earned for such Incentive Period based upon the
performance goals, objectives and computation formulae or methods for such
Incentive Period.  Unless the Committee elects to amend an Award so that it no
longer qualifies for the performance-based compensation exception under Code
Section 162(m) and is no longer subject to this Plan, the Committee shall have
no discretion to increase the amount of any participant's Award, but may reduce
the amount of or totally eliminate such Award, if it determines, in its absolute
and sole discretion, that such a reduction or elimination is appropriate in
order to reflect the participant's performance or unanticipated factors.

With respect to any compensation paid in cash, no participant's payment under
this Incentive Plan for any Incentive Period that is a calendar year shall
exceed the lesser of 300 percent of the participant's base annual salary as in
effect on the last day of the most recently ended Company fiscal year, or
$3 million.

6.

PAYMENT OF AWARDS

Subject to the payment provisions of this Section 6, approved Awards shall be
payable by the Company to each participant, or to such participant's estate in
the event of his death, as soon as practicable after the end of each Incentive
Period, and after the Committee has certified in writing that the relevant
performance goals were achieved. 

An Award that would otherwise be payable to a participant who is not employed by
the Company or one of its subsidiaries on the last day of an Incentive Period
shall be paid in accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the Committee
for the administration of the Incentive Plan or any other agreement between the
Company and the participant.

Unless the Company has adopted a deferred compensation plan and the participant
has made a valid deferral election under such plan, all payments under this Plan
are intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A pursuant to the "short-term
deferral" exception provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.409A 1(b)(4) and
the Plan will be interpreted to achieve this result.  Accordingly, all payments
under this Plan will be paid no later than March 15 of the calendar year
following the year in which a participant's right to a payment under this Plan
is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture.  In no event is the
Company responsible for any tax or penalty owed by participant with respect to
the payments under this Plan.

7.

OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Unless otherwise permitted under Code Section 162(m), no Awards shall be paid
under the Incentive Plan unless and until the material terms (within the meaning
of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code) of the Incentive Plan, including the
Business Criteria described above in Section 4 of the Incentive Plan, are
disclosed to the Company’s stockholders and are approved by the stockholders by
a majority of votes cast in person or by proxy (including abstentions, to the
extent that abstentions are counted as voting under applicable state law).  As
determined appropriate by the Company and as necessary for certain payments of
compensation to remain exempt from Code Section 162(m)'s deduction limitation,
the Incentive Plan will be submitted to the stockholders for re‑approval if the
Business Criteria stated above in Section 4 are materially changed and, in any
event, will be submitted to be reapproved by stockholders no later than the
first stockholder meeting that occurs in the fifth year following the year in
which stockholders previously approved the Business Criteria.

No person shall have any legal claim to be granted an Award under the Incentive
Plan and the Committee shall have no obligation to treat participants
uniformly.  Except as may be otherwise required by law, Awards under the
Incentive Plan shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation,
sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, charge, garnishment, execution,
or levy of any kind, either voluntary or involuntary.  Cash Awards under the
Incentive Plan shall be payable from the general assets of the Company, and no
participant shall have any claim with respect to any specific assets of the
Company.

Neither the Incentive Plan nor any action taken under the Incentive Plan shall
be construed as giving any employee the right to be retained in the employ of
the Company or any subsidiary or to maintain any participant's compensation at
any level.

The Company or any of its subsidiaries may deduct from any award any applicable
withholding taxes, or any amounts owed by the executive of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries.

By participating in the Incentive Plan, each participant is deemed to have
acknowledged that any amount paid pursuant to the Incentive Plan may be subject
to certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act of 2010 (“Dodd-Frank”) that will require the Company to recover
certain amounts of incentive compensation paid to certain executive officers if
the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material
noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirements under any
applicable securities laws.  By participating in the Plan, each participant
agrees and consents to any forfeiture or required recovery or reimbursement
obligations of the Company with respect to any compensation paid that is
forfeitable or recoverable by the Company pursuant to Dodd-Frank and in
accordance with any Company policies and procedures adopted by the Committee in
order to comply with Dodd Frank, as the same may be amended from time to time.

8.

ADMINISTRATION

All members of the Committee shall be persons who qualify as "outside directors"
as defined under Code Section 162(m).  Until changed by the Board, the Incentive
Compensation Committee of the Board shall constitute the Committee hereunder.

The Committee shall have full power and authority to administer and interpret
the provisions of the Incentive Plan and to adopt such rules, regulations,
agreements, guidelines and instruments for the administration of the Incentive
Plan and for the conduct of its business as the Committee deems necessary or
advisable.

Except with respect to matters which, under Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code,
are required to be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the
Committee, the Committee shall have full power to delegate to any officer or
employee of the Company the authority to administer and interpret the procedural
aspects of the Incentive Plan, subject to the Incentive Plan's terms, including
adopting and enforcing rules to decide procedural and administrative issues.

4

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

 

The Committee may rely on opinions, reports or statements of officers or
employees of the Company or any subsidiary thereof, company counsel (inside or
retained counsel), public accountants and other professional or expert persons.

The Board reserves the right to amend or terminate the Incentive Plan in whole
or in part at any time.  Unless otherwise prohibited by applicable law, any
amendment required to conform the Incentive Plan to the requirements of Code
Section 162(m) may be made by the Committee.  No amendment may be made to the
class of individuals who are eligible to participate in the Incentive Plan, the
performance criteria specified in Section 4, or the maximum Award amount payable
to any participant without stockholder approval, unless stockholder approval is
not required in order for compensation paid to Covered Employees to constitute
qualified performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m).

No member of the Committee shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken, or for any determination made by him or her in good faith with respect to
the Incentive Plan and the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each member
of the Committee in accordance with the Company's Certificate of Incorporation
and By-Laws as the same may be amended from time to time, and any
indemnification agreement between the Company and such member of the Committee. 

The rules, regulations and rights relating to the Incentive Plan shall be
determined solely in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.
