For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “Return on Equity”, “Stock Price to Book Ratio”, and “Tier 1 Capital Ratio” (as defined by the Federal Reserve Bank) shall mean such terms as determined at year end for the banks that comprise the S&P Supercomposite Regional Bank Index.

The Financial Performance Criteria shall be determined based on references to measures and percentiles for the peer group banks that comprise the January 4, 2016, S&P Supercomposite Regional Bank Index (with peer group banks determined by excluding banks with assets >$50B).
a.    Termination of Period of Restriction For First Category Shares
The Period of Restriction shall terminate on March 1, 2019, with respect to the amount equal to the Applicable Vesting Percentage multiplied by the First Category Shares, provided that:  (i) the Committee shall have certified the Three Year Average Percentile level for the Company’s “Return on Equity” that corresponds to such Applicable Vesting Percentage; and (ii) Grantee is an Employee on March 1, 2019.
b.    Termination of Period of Restriction Second Category Shares
The Period of Restriction shall terminate on March 1, 2019, with respect to the amount equal to the Applicable Vesting Percentage multiplied by the Second Category Shares provided that:  (i) the Committee shall have certified the Three Year Average Percentile level for the Company’s “Stock Price to Book Ratio” that corresponds to such Applicable Vesting Percentage; and (ii) Grantee is an Employee on March 1, 2019.
c.    Termination of Period of Restriction Third Category Shares

d.    Termination of Period of Restriction Upon Certain Terminations of Employment
In addition to the termination of the Period of Restriction based on the achievement of the service and financial performance objectives as described in Sections 2.a-2.c above, the Period of Restriction shall terminate in connection with certain terminations of Grantee’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries as described in this Section 2.d.  Specifically, the Period of Restriction for all of the Restricted Shares shall terminate (to the extent that the Period of Restriction has not previously terminated or the Restricted Shares have not previously been forfeited) upon the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the death of Grantee; (ii) the Grantee ceasing to be an Employee due to “disability” within the meaning of that term under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder; or (iii) upon or after the occurrence of a “Change in Control” (within the meaning of Section 2.5

of the Bank of Hawaii Corporation Change-in-Control Retention Plan, restatement effective December 17, 2009 (“Change-in-Control Plan”)) either (A) Grantee’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries is terminated by the Company without “Cause” (within the meaning of Section 2.4 of the Change-in-Control Plan) or (B) Grantee terminates employment with the Company and its subsidiaries for “Good Reason” (within the meaning of Section 2.16 of the Change-In-Control Plan).
e.    Committee Determinations; Section 162(m).  The Committee shall certify whether the Financial Performance Criteria for the First Category Shares, Second Category Shares, and Third Category Shares have been achieved on or prior to March 1, 2019.  In the event that the Committee does not certify the Financial Performance Criteria by March 1, 2019, due to the timing of available information or other administrative delay, the Committee shall make its certification as soon as possible thereafter and, to the extent that the satisfaction of the Financial Performance Criteria is certified, the Restricted Shares subject to vesting shall vest at the time of the making of the certification (i.e., the Period of Restriction shall be terminated as of the time of the certification).  However, in this case, the service performance objective (i.e., employment as of March 1, 2019) shall be treated as satisfied if Grantee is an Employee on March 1, 2019.  This Agreement shall be interpreted and administered in a manner consistent with the intent that the Restricted Shares granted hereunder comply with the requirements of the performance-based compensation exception under Code Section 162(m).
3.    Forfeiture of Unvested Restricted Shares.  Restricted Shares as to which the Period of Restriction has not terminated shall be forfeited and transferred to the Company upon the first to occur of: (a) Grantee’s ceasing to be an Employee for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary (other than for a termination of employment described in Section 2.d), and (b) March 1, 2019.  However, as described in Section 2 above with respect to the termination of the Period of Restriction on March 1, 2019, the Applicable Vesting Percentage of the given category of Restricted Shares shall not be forfeited as of March 1, 2019, to the extent that:  (a) with respect to such Applicable Vesting Percentage of such category of Restricted Shares, the Committee has, on or prior to March 1, 2019, certified that the corresponding Three Year Average Percentile level for such Applicable Vesting Percentage has been achieved; and (b) the Grantee is an Employee on March 1, 2019.  In the event of a delay of the termination of the Period of Restriction due to the Committee’s certification of the Financial Performance Criteria after March 1, 2019 (as described in the above Section 2.e), then:  (A) the Restricted Shares shall not be forfeited under 3(a) above if Grantee is an Employee on March 1, 2019; and (B) the certification date shall apply in lieu of March 1, 2019, as specified in 3(b) above.  Grantee’s employment shall not be treated as terminated in the case of a transfer of employment within the Company and its subsidiaries or in the case of sick leave and other approved leaves of absence.
4.    Issuance of Shares; Registration; Withholding Taxes.  Restricted Shares shall be issued in Grantee’s name, shall bear the restrictive legends as are required or deemed advisable by the Company under the provisions of any applicable law, and shall be held by the Company until all restrictions lapse or such shares are forfeited as provided herein.  The Company may postpone the issuance or delivery of the Shares until (a) the completion of registration or other qualification of such Shares or transaction under any state or federal law, rule or regulation, or any listing on any securities exchange, as the Company shall determine to be necessary or desirable; (b) the receipt by the Company of such written representations or other documentation as the Company deems necessary to establish compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including applicable federal and state securities laws and listing requirements, if any; and (c) the payment to the Company of any amount required by the Company to satisfy any federal, state or other governmental withholding tax requirements related to the issuance or delivery of the Shares.

5.    Share Adjustments.  The number and kind of Restricted Shares or other property subject to this Agreement shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 13 of the Plan.
6.    Rights as Shareholder.  Unless otherwise provided herein, Grantee shall be entitled to all of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Restricted Shares, including the right to vote such Shares and to receive dividends and other distributions (not including share adjustments as described in Section 5 above) payable with respect to such Shares from and after the Grant Date.  Grantee’s rights as a shareholder shall terminate with respect to any Restricted Shares forfeited by Grantee.

7.    Employment Rights.  Neither the Plan nor the granting of the Restricted Shares shall be a contract of employment of Grantee by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.  Grantee may be discharged from employment at any time by the employing Company or subsidiary, subject to any employment contract that may otherwise apply to Grantee.
8.    Amendment.  This Agreement may be amended by the Committee at any time based on its determination that the amendment is necessary or advisable in light of any addition to, or change in, the Code or regulations issued thereunder or any federal or state securities law or other law or regulation, or the Plan, or based on any discretionary authority of the Committee under the Plan.  Unless necessary or advisable due to a change in law, any amendment to this Agreement which has a material adverse effect on the interest of Grantee under this Agreement shall be adopted only with the consent of Grantee.
9.    Section 83(b) Election.  Grantee shall promptly deliver to the Company a copy of any election filed by Grantee in respect of the Restricted Shares pursuant to Code Section 83(b).
