Exhibit 10(g)

GLACIER BANCORP, INC.
2015 SHORT TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
1.
Establishment, Purpose, and Types of Awards

Glacier Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby establishes this cash-based
incentive compensation plan to be known as the “Glacier Bancorp, Inc. 2015 Short
Term Incentive Plan” (hereinafter referred to as the “Plan”), in order to
motivate executives to attain superior annual performance in key areas that the
Company believes create long-term value for the Company and its shareholders.
Among other purposes, the Plan is designed to memorialize and facilitate the
Company’s short term incentive award program, which was initially implemented in
calendar year 2012. The Plan is intended to allow, among other cash-based
awards, for the award of annual cash incentives under the Company’s short term
incentive award program that qualify as “performance-based compensation” for
purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Plan is not intended to affect and shall not affect any stock options,
equity-based compensation, cash-based compensation, or other benefits that the
Company or its Affiliates may have provided, or may separately provide in the
future pursuant to any agreement, plan, or program that is independent of this
Plan.
2.
Defined Terms

Terms in the Plan that begin with an initial capital letter have the defined
meaning set forth in Appendix A, unless defined elsewhere in this Plan or the
context of their use clearly indicates a different meaning.
3.
Administration

(a)    General. The Committee shall administer the Plan in accordance with its
terms, provided that the Board may act in lieu of the Committee on any matter.
The Committee shall hold meetings at such times and places as it may determine
and shall make such rules and regulations for the conduct of its business as it
deems advisable. In the absence of a duly appointed Committee or if the Board
otherwise chooses to act in lieu of the Committee, the Board shall function as
the Committee for all purposes of the Plan.
(b)    Committee Composition. The Board shall appoint the members of the
Committee. The Board may at any time appoint additional members to the
Committee, remove and replace members of the Committee with or without Cause,
and fill vacancies on the Committee however caused.
(c)    Powers of the Committee. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the
Committee shall have the authority, in its sole discretion:
(i)to determine Eligible Persons to whom Awards shall be granted from time to
time and the amounts to be covered by each Award;

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

Exhibit 10(g)

(ii)to determine, and to set forth in Award Agreements, the terms and conditions
of all Awards, including the conditions under which an Award shall be earned or
become vested (which may be based on performance), and other restrictions and
limitations;
(iii)to approve the forms of Award Agreements and all other documents, notices
and certificates in connection therewith which need not be identical either as
to type of Award or among Participants;
(iv)to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and any Award Agreement, to
determine the meaning of their terms, and to prescribe, amend, and rescind rules
and procedures relating to the Plan and its administration; and
(v)in order to fulfill the purposes of the Plan and without amending the Plan,
modify, cancel, or waive the Company’s rights with respect to any Awards, to
adjust or to modify Award Agreements for changes in Applicable Law, and to
recognize differences in foreign law, tax policies, or customs; and
(vi)to make all other interpretations and to take all other actions that the
Committee may consider necessary or advisable to administer the Plan or to
effectuate its purposes.
Subject to Applicable Law and the restrictions set forth in the Plan, the
Committee may delegate administrative functions to individuals who are officers,
or Employees of the Company or its Affiliates.
(d)    Deference to Committee Determinations. The Committee shall have the
discretion to interpret or construe ambiguous, unclear, or implied (but omitted)
terms in any fashion it deems to be appropriate in its sole discretion, and to
make any findings of fact needed in the administration of the Plan or Award
Agreements. The Committee’s prior exercise of its discretionary authority shall
not obligate it to exercise its authority in a like fashion thereafter. The
Committee’s interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan, or of
any Award or Award Agreement, shall be final, binding, and conclusive. The
validity of any such interpretation, construction, decision or finding of fact
shall not be given de novo review if challenged in court, by arbitration, or in
any other forum, and shall be upheld unless clearly arbitrary or capricious.
(e)    No Liability; Indemnification. Neither the Board nor any Committee
member, nor any Person acting at the direction of the Board or the Committee,
shall be liable for any act, omission, interpretation, construction or
determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan, any Award or any
Award Agreement. The Company and its Affiliates shall pay or reimburse any
member of the Committee, as well as any Director, Employee, or Consultant who
takes action in connection with the Plan, for all expenses incurred with respect
to the Plan, and to the full extent allowable under Applicable Law shall
indemnify each and every one of them for any claims, liabilities, and costs
(including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising out of their good faith
performance of duties under the Plan. The Company and its Affiliates may obtain
liability insurance for this purpose.

Exhibit 10(g)

4.Eligibility
(a)    General Rule. The Committee may grant Awards to any Eligible Person. A
Participant who has been granted an Award may be granted an additional Award or
Awards if the Committee shall so determine, if such person is otherwise an
Eligible Person and if otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Plan.
(b)    Grant of Awards. Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the
Committee shall determine from the class of Eligible Persons those individuals
to whom Awards under the Plan may be granted, the amount of cash subject to each
Award, and in addition to the matters addressed in Section 5 below, the specific
objectives, goals and performance criteria that further define the Award. Each
Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement signed by the Company and, if
required by the Committee, by the Participant. The Award Agreement shall set
forth the material terms and conditions of the Award established by the
Committee.
(c)    Termination of Continuous Service. The Committee may establish and set
forth in the applicable Award Agreement the terms and conditions on which an
Award shall remain payable if at all, following termination of a Participant’s
Continuous Service. The Committee may waive or modify these provisions at any
time.
5.Performance Awards
(a)    Performance Awards. Subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph (c)
hereof, the Committee may in its discretion grant Performance Awards to any
Eligible Person and shall evidence such grant in an Award Agreement that is
delivered to the Participant which sets forth the terms and conditions of the
Award.
(b)    Performance Compensation Awards. Subject to the limitations set forth in
paragraph (c) hereof, the Committee may, at the time of grant of a Performance
Award, designate such Award as a “Performance Compensation Award” in order that
such Award constitutes “qualified performance-based compensation” under Code
Section 162(m), in which event the Committee shall have the power to grant such
Performance Compensation Award upon terms and conditions that qualify it as
“qualified performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Code Section
162(m). With respect to each such Performance Compensation Award, the Committee
shall establish, in writing within the time required under Code Section 162(m),
a “Performance Period,” “Performance Measure(s)”, and “Performance Formula(e)”
(each such term being hereinafter defined).
A Participant shall be eligible to receive payment in respect of a Performance
Compensation Award only to the extent that the Performance Measure(s) for such
Award is achieved and the Performance Formula(e) as applied against such
Performance Measure(s) determines that all or some portion of such Participant’s
Award has been earned for the Performance Period. The terms of an Award
Agreement may provide that partial achievement of the Performance Measure(s) may
result in a payment based upon the degree of achievement. As soon as practicable
after the close of each Performance Period, the Committee shall review and
certify in writing whether, and to what extent, the Performance Measure(s) for
the Performance Period have been achieved and, if so, determine and certify in
writing the amount of the Performance Compensation Award to be paid to the
Participant and, in so doing, may use negative discretion to decrease, but not
increase, the amount of the Award otherwise payable to the Participant based
upon such performance.

- 3-

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

Exhibit 10(g)

Performance Compensation Awards granted for a Performance Period shall be paid
to Participants as soon as administratively practicable but in no event later
than 2 ½ months following the end of the calendar year during which the
Performance Period is completed.
(c)    Limitations on Awards. The maximum Performance Award and the maximum
Performance Compensation Award that any one Participant may receive for any one
calendar year shall not together exceed $1,000,000 in cash. The Committee shall
have the discretion to provide in any Award Agreement that any amounts earned in
excess of this limitations will either be credited as deferred cash compensation
under a separate plan of the Company (provided in the latter case that such
deferred compensation either bears a reasonable rate of interest or has a value
based on one or more predetermined actual investments). Any amounts for which
payment to the Participant is deferred pursuant to the preceding sentence shall
be paid to the Participant in a future year or years not earlier than, and only
to the extent that, the Participant is either not receiving compensation in
excess of these limits for a calendar year, or is not subject to the
restrictions set forth under Section 162(m) of the Code.
(d)    Definitions.
(i)“Performance Formula” means, for a Performance Period, one or more objective
formulas or standards established by the Committee for purposes of determining
whether or the extent to which an Award has been earned based on the level of
performance attained or to be attained with respect to one or more Performance
Measure(s). Performance Formulae may vary from Performance Period to Performance
Period and from Participant to Participant and may be established on a
stand-alone basis, in tandem or in the alternative.
(ii)“Performance Measure” means one or more of the following selected by the
Committee to measure Company, Affiliate, and/or business unit performance for a
Performance Period, whether in absolute or relative terms (including, without
limitation, terms relative to a peer group or index): basic, diluted, or
adjusted earnings per share; sales or revenue; earnings before interest, taxes,
and other adjustments (in total or on a per share basis); basic or adjusted net
income; returns on equity, assets, capital, revenue or similar measure; economic
value added; working capital; total shareholder return; and product development,
product market share, research, licensing, litigation, human resources,
information services, mergers, acquisitions, sales of assets of Affiliates or
business units. Each such measure shall be, to the extent applicable, determined
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as consistently
applied by the Company (or such other standard applied by the Committee) and, if
so determined by the Committee, and in the case of a Performance Compensation
Award, to the extent permitted under Code Section 162(m), adjusted to omit the
effects of extraordinary items, gain or loss on the disposal of a business
segment, unusual or infrequently occurring events and transactions and
cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles. Performance Measures may
vary from Performance Period to Performance Period and from Participant to
Participant, and may be established on a stand-alone basis, in tandem or in the
alternative.
“Performance Period” means one or more periods of time (of not less than one
fiscal year of the Company), as the Committee may designate, over which the
attainment of one or more Performance Measure(s) will be measured for the
purpose of determining a Participant’s rights in respect of an Award.

6.
Taxes

(a)    Income Taxes and Deferred Compensation.
(i)Awards Deferrals. Other provisions of the Plan notwithstanding, to the extent
that the terms of any Award held by a Participant who is subject to United
States federal income tax requires or permits installment or deferred payment of
such Award resulting in a "deferral of compensation" within the meaning of Code
Section 409A and regulations thereunder (a "Section 409A Award"), such Section
409A Award shall be subject to the following additional terms and conditions:
(A)    Deferral Elections. If a Participant is permitted to elect to defer an
Award or any payment under an Award, such election must be in writing (on a form
acceptable to the Committee) and must be received by the Company by the
following election deadlines:
(1)    Awards Subject to a Substantial Risk of Forfeiture. In the case of an
Award that is subject to forfeiture unless the Participant continues to provide
services for a period of at least twelve (12) months after the date of grant,
the deferral election must be received by the Company no later than the
thirtieth (30th) day after the date of grant, provided that the election is made
at least twelve (12) months before the earliest date at which the Award will no
longer be subject to forfeiture.
(2)    Performance Awards. In the case of a Performance Award, the deferral
election must be received by the Company no later than six (6) months before the
end of the applicable Performance Period, provided that (i) the Participant was
employed continuously from the later of the first day of the Performance Period
or the date on which the Performance Measure was established through the date of
election, (ii) the election to defer is made before such compensation has become
readily ascertainable (i.e., substantially certain to be paid), and (iii) the
Performance Period is at least twelve (12) months in length and the Performance
Measure was established within ninety (90) days after commencement of the
Performance Period.
(3)    All Other Awards. In the case of all other Awards for which the Committee
permits the Participant to make deferral elections, the deferral election must
be received by the Company no later than December 31 of the calendar year prior
to the calendar year that includes the date of grant.
(B)    Required Deferrals. In the event that the Committee determines that the
payment of an Award shall be automatically deferred, without providing the
Participant with the opportunity to elect the time and form of such payment, the
Committee must set forth the time and form of payment of the Award in the Award
Agreement or a related document no later than the later of (i) the date of grant
or (ii) the date by which the Participant would have been required to submit his
or her deferral election under Section 6(a)(i)(A) above had the Committee
permitted such Participant to make such election.

- 5-

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

Exhibit 10(g)

(C)    Deferral Accounts. The Company will establish and maintain a hypothetical
bookkeeping account established and maintained by the Company on behalf of a
Participant to track the Participant’s Section 409A Award deferrals (a “Deferral
Account”) in the name of each Participant whose payment of a Section 409A Award
has been deferred in accordance with this Section 6(a)(i). Section 409A Award
deferrals shall be credited to the Deferral Account as of the date that the
underlying Award would otherwise have been paid if such payment had not been
deferred. Awards that were otherwise payable in cash will be credited to the
Deferral Account as an equivalent amount of cash and Awards that were otherwise
payable in shares of Stock will be credited to the Deferral Account as an
equivalent number of shares of stock.
(D)    Distribution of Section 409A Award Deferrals. Except as provided in
Section 6(a)(i)(F) hereof, no Section 409A Award shall be distributable to a
Participant (or his or her Beneficiary) except upon the occurrence of one of the
following dates or events (or a date related to the occurrence of one of the
following dates or events), which must be specified either in the applicable
Award Agreement or related document, or in the written deferral election
submitted by the Participant in respect of such Section 409A Award:
(1)    Specified Time. A specified time or a fixed schedule;
(2)    Separation from Service. The Participant's Separation from Service;
provided, however, that if the Participant is a Section 409A Specified Employee
as of the date of his or her Separation from Service and any of the Company's
Stock is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise, the
Company shall withhold payment of any Section 409A Award deferral that becomes
payable to such Section 409A Specified Employee on account of his or her
Separation from Service until the first day of the seventh (7th) month following
such Separation from Service or, if earlier, the date of his or her death. In
the case of installments, this delay shall not affect the timing of any
installment otherwise payable after the six-month delay period;
(3)    Death. The death of the Participant. Unless a specific time otherwise is
stated for payment of a Section 409A Award deferral upon death, such payment
shall occur during the calendar year in which falls the thirtieth (30th) day
after death;
(4)    Disability. The date the Participant becomes Disabled within the meaning
of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(4); and
(5)    Change in Control. The occurrence of a Change in Control.
(E)    Changes in Distribution Terms. The Committee may, in its discretion,
require or permit on an elective basis a change in the time and/or form of
payment of Section 409A Awards after the dates specified in Sections 6(a)(i)(A)
and

- 6-

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

Exhibit 10(g)

(B) above, subject to the following conditions, which may not be waived by the
Committee:
(1)    Such election or Committee determination must in writing and must be
made, if at all, no less than twelve (12) months prior to the originally
scheduled payment date set out in the applicable Award Agreement or the
Participant's most recent payment election;
(2)    Such election or Committee determination shall not be valid and take
effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the election or
determination is made; and
(3)    Except with respect to an election to receive payment upon Disability,
death or an Unforeseeable Emergency, the first scheduled payment must be
deferred pursuant to the election for a period of at least five (5) years from
the original payment date set out in the applicable Award Agreement or the
Participant's most recent payment election.
(F)    No Acceleration. The distribution of a Section 409A Award deferral may
not be accelerated prior to the time specified in accordance with Section
6(a)(i)(D) hereof, except in the case of one of the following events:
(1)    Unforeseeable Emergency. The Committee may permit accelerated payment of
a Section 409A Award deferral upon the occurrence of a severe financial hardship
to the Participant resulting from an illness or accident of the Participant, the
Participant’s spouse, or a dependent of the Participant, loss of the
Participant’s property due to casualty, or similar extraordinary and
unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of
the Participant, and otherwise meeting the definition set forth in Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(3) (an “Unforeseeable Emergency”), but only if
the net amount payable upon such settlement does not exceed the amounts
necessary to relieve such emergency plus amounts necessary to pay taxes
reasonably anticipated as a result of the settlement, after taking into account
the extent to which the emergency is or may be relieved through reimbursement or
compensation from insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant's
other assets (to the extent such liquidation would not itself cause severe
financial hardship), or by cessation of Section 409A Award deferrals under the
Plan. Upon a finding that an Unforeseeable Emergency has occurred with respect
to a Participant, any election by the Participant to defer payment of an Award
that will be earned and vested in whole or part in connection with services
performed during the year in which the Unforeseeable Emergency occurred or is
found to continue will be immediately cancelled, as provided in Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(viii).
(2)    Domestic Relations Order. The Committee may permit accelerated payment of
a Section 409A Award deferral to the extent necessary to comply with the terms
of a domestic relations order (as defined

- 7-

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

Exhibit 10(g)

in Code Section 414(p)(1)(B) of the Code), as provided in Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ii).
(3)    Conflicts of Interest. The Committee may permit accelerated payment of a
Section 409A Award deferral to the extent necessary to comply with a Federal,
state, local or foreign ethics law or conflict of interest law, as provided in
Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(iii)(B).
(4)    Payment of Employment Taxes. The Committee may permit accelerated payment
of a Section 409A Award deferral to the extent necessary to enable the
Participant to satisfy applicable federal employment tax obligations, as
provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(iv).
(5)    Other Permitted Accelerations. The Committee may exercise the
discretionary right to accelerate the vesting of any unvested Award deemed to be
a Section 409A Award upon a Change in Control or to terminate the Plan upon or
within twelve (12) months after such Change in Control and make distributions to
the extent permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix), or
accelerate payment of any Section 409A Award deferral in any other circumstance
permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4).
(G)    Timing of Distributions. Except as otherwise provided in Section
6(a)(i)(D)(3) with respect to Section 409A Award deferrals that become payable
on account of a Participant's death, unless the applicable Award Agreement or
related document, or written deferral election submitted by the Participant in
respect of such Section 409A Award provides a specific date following any of the
other permissible payment events set out in Section 6(a)(i)(D) upon which
payment of a Section 409A Award deferral shall be made or commence, such payment
shall be made or commence within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the
applicable payment event; provided, however, that where such sixty (60) day
period begins and ends in different tax years, the Participant shall have no
right to designate the tax year in which payment will be made (other than
pursuant to an election that satisfies the requirements of Section 6(a)(i)(E)).
(ii)    Distributions upon Vesting. In the case of any Award providing for a
distribution upon the lapse of a risk of forfeiture, if the timing of such
distribution is not otherwise specified in the Plan or an Award Agreement or
other governing document, the distribution shall be made not later than March 15
of the year following the year in which the risk of forfeiture lapsed, and if a
determination is to be made promptly following the end of a Performance Period
(as in the case of Performance Awards), then the determination of the level of
achievement of the applicable Performance Measures and the distribution shall be
made between January 1 and March 15 of the year following the end of such
Performance Period. In all cases, the Participant shall have no right to
designate the tax year in which distribution will be made (other than pursuant
to an election that satisfies the requirements of Section 10(e)(i)(E)).

- 8-

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

Exhibit 10(g)

(iii)    Release or Other Separation Agreement. If the Company requires a
Participant to execute a release, non-competition, or other agreement as a
condition to receipt of a payment upon or following a Separation from Service,
the Company will supply to the Participant a form of such release or other
document not later than the date of the Participant's Separation from Service,
which must be returned within the time period required by law and must not be
revoked by the Participant within the applicable time period in order for a
Participant to satisfy any such condition. If any amount payable during a fixed
period following Separation from Service is subject to such a requirement and
the fixed period would begin in one tax year and end in the next, the Company,
in determining the time of payment of any such amount, will not be influenced by
the timing of any action of the Participant, including execution of such a
release or other document and expiration of any revocation period. In
particular, the Company will be entitled in its discretion to deposit any such
payment in escrow during either tax year comprising such fixed period, so that
such deposited amount is constructively received and taxable income to the
Participant upon deposit, but with distribution from such escrow remaining
subject to the Participant's execution and non-revocation of such release or
other document.
(iv)    Special Disability Provision. In case of a Disability of a Participant,
for any Award or portion thereof that constitutes either a short-term deferral
for purposes of Code Section 409A or a Section 409A Award deferral, the Company
shall determine whether the Participant's circumstances are such that the
Participant will not return to service, in which case such Disability will be
treated as a Separation from Service for purposes of determining the time of
payment of such Award or portion thereof then subject only to service-based
vesting. In each case, the Participant shall be accorded the benefit of vesting
that would result in the case of Disability in the absence of this provision, so
that the operation of this provision, intended to comply with Code Section 409A,
will not disadvantage the Participant. The Company's determination hereunder
will be made initially within thirty (30) days after the Disability and each
March and December thereafter.
(v)    Scope and Application of this Provision. For purposes of this Section
10(e), references to a term or event (including any authority or right of the
Company or a Participant) being "permitted" under Code Section 409A mean that
the term or event will not cause the Participant to be deemed to be in
constructive receipt of compensation relating to the Section 409A Award deferral
prior to the distribution of cash, shares or other property or to be liable for
payment of interest or a tax penalty under Code Section 409A.
(vi)    Tax Liability. Participants are solely responsible and liable for the
satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may arise in connection with Awards
(including any taxes arising under Section 409A of the Code), and the Company
shall not have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold any Participant
harmless from any or all of such taxes.
(b)    Withholding. The Company shall have the right to withhold from any Award,
any federal, state or local income and payroll taxes required by law to be
withheld and to take any other action as the Committee may deem advisable to
enable the Company and Participants to satisfy obligations for the payment of
withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to an Award.

- 9-

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

Exhibit 10(g)

7.Non-Transferability of Awards
(a)    General. Except as set forth in this Section 7, or as otherwise approved
by the Committee, Awards may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of
descent or distribution. The designation of a beneficiary by a Participant will
not constitute a transfer. An Award may be exercised, during the lifetime of the
holder of an Award, only by such holder, the duly-authorized legal
representative of a Participant who is Disabled, or a transferee permitted by
this Section 7.
(b)    Limited Transferability Rights. Notwithstanding anything else in this
Section 7, the Committee may in its discretion provide in an Award Agreement
that an Award may be transferred, on such terms and conditions as the Committee
deems appropriate, either (i) by instrument to the Participant’s “Immediate
Family” (as defined below), (ii) by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary
trust (or other entity) in which the Award is to be passed to the Participant’s
designated beneficiaries, or (iii) by gift to charitable institutions. Any
transferee of the Participant’s rights shall succeed and be subject to all of
the terms of this Award Agreement and the Plan. “Immediate Family” means any
child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former
spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law,
daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, and shall include adoptive
relationships.
8.Change in Control
(a)    In the event that there occurs a Change in Control, if the Participant’s
employment with the Company, its Affiliates, or any Successor Corporation or
parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation terminates in an event
constituting an “Involuntary Termination” during the two-year period following
the Change in Control, the following shall apply to Participant’s Awards
(including Awards assumed or substituted by a Successor Corporation) upon such
Involuntary Termination, unless otherwise provided by the Committee in the Award
Agreement:
(i)In the case of an Award other than a Performance Award, all forfeiture
conditions and other restrictions applicable to such Award shall lapse and such
Award shall be fully payable as of the Participant’s Involuntary Termination,
and any Award carrying a right to exercise that was not previously vested and
exercisable shall become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of the
Participant’s Involuntary Termination, and, subject to Section 8(a)(iii) below
and all deferral of settlement and similar restrictions applicable to such Award
shall lapse, and such Award shall be fully payable as of the time of such
Involuntary Termination without regard to deferral conditions.
(ii)In the case of a Performance Award, the Award (or award opportunity relating
thereto) for any Performance Period that was in effect at the time of the
Participant’s Involuntary Termination shall be deemed earned pro rata based on
the portion of the Performance Period completed as of the date of the
Participant’s Involuntary Termination, calculated as to such Performance Period
assuming that any Performance Formula will have been achieved (for the entire
Performance Period), and any Award (or award opportunity relating thereto) for
any Performance Period that was completed as of the date of the Participant’s
Involuntary Termination shall be deemed earned based on actual performance for
such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any additional forfeiture
restrictions in the nature of a “clawback” applicable to the Performance Award
will continue

- 10-

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

Exhibit 10(g)

to apply to any payment under this Section 8(a)(ii). Any distribution hereunder
shall be subject to Section 8(a)(iii) below.
(iii)Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any Section 409A Award,
nothing in the foregoing shall cause an acceleration of payment or a further
deferral of payment in violation of Code Section 409A or provide for payment
upon a changes in control that does not satisfy the definition of a change in
control even for purposes of Code Section 409A and the payment terms applicable
to such Award prior to the foregoing changes shall continue to apply (unless a
change in payment timing is permitted under Code Section 409A) but the foregoing
provisions shall apply to purposes of determining the Award holder’s vested
interest in the Award. Further, if any amounts that become due under this
Section 8(a) on account of the Involuntary Termination of a Participant
constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code
Section 409A, payment of such amounts shall not commence until the Participant
incurs a Separation from Service. If, at the time of the Participant’s
Separation from Service, the Participant is a Specified Employee, any amount
that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code
Section 409A that becomes payable to the Participant in account of the
Participant’s Separation from Service (including any amounts payable pursuant to
the preceding sentence) will not be paid until after the end of the sixth
calendar month beginning after the Participant’s Separation from Service (the
“409A Suspension Period”).
(iv)Awards subject to accelerated vesting and/or settlement under this Section
8(a) may be settled in cash, if and to the extent authorized by the Committee.
(v)If, in connection with the Change in Control, the Award would be cancelled,
otherwise cease to be outstanding, or not assumed by any successor as a result
of the Change in Control, the foregoing provisions shall apply as of the date of
the Change in Control without regard to whether the holder terminates employment
in connection with the Change in Control.
The Company and any successor that has assumed an Award in connection with a
Change in Control must acknowledge and agree to be bound by the provisions
hereof during the two-year period following the Change in Control in a legally
binding agreement with the Participant.
9.
Term of Plan

The Plan shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years from its
effective date as determined under Section 11 below, unless the Plan is sooner
