 Exhibit 4.1 
 IBERIABANK Corporation 
 AMENDED & RESTATED

 2010 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 1. Establishment, Purpose, and Types of Awards. 
 IBERIABANK Corporation
(the “Company”) hereby establishes this equity-based incentive compensation plan to be known as the “IBERIABANK Corporation Amended & Restated 2010 Stock Incentive Plan” (the “Plan”), in order to
provide incentives and awards to select employees, consultants, and directors of the Company and its Affiliates. 
 The Plan
permits the granting of the following types of Awards, according to the Sections of the Plan listed here: 
  

			
	Section 6	 	Option Awards
	Section 7	 	Share Appreciation Rights
	Section 8	 	Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units, and Unrestricted Shares
	Section 9	 	Performance Units
	Section 10	 	Performance Compensation Awards

 The Plan
is not intended to affect, and shall not affect, any stock options, equity-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 the Appendix, unless defined
elsewhere in this Plan or the context of their use clearly indicates a different meaning. 
 3. Shares Subject to the Plan. 

(a) Maximum Number of Shares Issuable under the Plan. Subject to the provisions of Section 13 of the
Plan, the maximum number of Shares that the Company may issue for all Awards is 500,000 Shares. The maximum number of Shares that the Company may issue as full value Awards under Sections 8, 9, and 10 is 250,000 Shares. Additional limitations
on Share issuances are provided in Sections 5(c), 8(a), 8(b) and 10(b). For all Awards, the Shares issued pursuant to the Plan may be authorized but unissued Shares, or Shares that the Company has reacquired or otherwise
holds in treasury. 







 (b) Return of Shares to the Plan. Shares that are subject to an Award
that for any reason expires, is forfeited, is cancelled, or becomes unexercisable, and Shares that are for any other reason not paid or delivered under the Plan shall again, except to the extent prohibited by Applicable Law, be available for
subsequent Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to adjustments pursuant to Section 13 below, the number of Shares that are available for ISO Awards shall be determined, to the extent required under applicable
tax laws, by reducing the number of Shares designated in the preceding paragraph by the number of Shares issued pursuant to Awards, provided that any Shares that are issued under the Plan and forfeited back to the Plan shall be available for
issuance pursuant to future ISO Awards. 
 4. 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. If and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Committee may authorize one or more Reporting Persons (or
other officers) to make Awards to Eligible Persons who are not Reporting Persons (or other officers whom the Committee has specifically authorized to make Awards). The Board has sole discretion, at any time, to appoint additional members to the
Committee, to remove and replace members of the Committee for any reason, and to 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 number of Shares, units, or SARs
to be covered by each Award; 
 (ii) to determine, from time to time, the Fair Market Value of Shares;

 (iii) to determine, and to set forth in Award Agreements, the terms and conditions of all Awards, including
any applicable exercise or purchase price, the installments and conditions under which an Award shall become vested (which may be based on performance), terminated, expired, cancelled, or replaced, and the circumstances for vesting acceleration or
waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and other restrictions and limitations; 
 (iv) 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; 
  

 2 








 (v) 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; 
 (vi) 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 
 (vii) 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. 
 (d) Delegation of Administrative Functions. Subject to Applicable Law and the restrictions set forth in the Plan, the
Committee may delegate administrative functions to individuals who are Reporting Persons, officers, or Employees of the Company or its Affiliates. 
 (e) Deference to Committee Determinations. The Committee shall have the sole discretion to interpret or construe ambiguous, unclear, or implied (but omitted) terms in any fashion it deems to be
appropriate, 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. 
 (f) 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. 
 5. Eligibility. 
 (a) General Rule. The Committee may grant ISOs only to Employees (including officers who are Employees) of the Company
or an Affiliate that is a “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code, and may grant all other 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 Participant is otherwise an Eligible Person and if otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 
  

 3 








 (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 number of Shares subject to each Award, the price (if any) to be paid for the Shares or the Award and, in the case
of Performance Awards, in addition to the matters addressed in Section 10 below, the specific objectives, goals and performance criteria that further define the Performance 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) Limits on Awards. During the term of the Plan, no Participant may receive Options and SARs that relate to more
than 300,000 Shares per calendar year. The Committee will adjust this limitation pursuant to Section 13 below. Additional limitations applicable to Performance Compensation Awards are described in Section 10(b). 

(d) Replacement Awards. Subject to Applicable Laws (including any associated shareholder approval requirements),
the Committee may, in its sole discretion and upon such terms as it deems appropriate, require as a condition of the grant of an Award to a Participant that the Participant surrender for cancellation some or all of the Awards that have previously
been granted to the Participant under this Plan or otherwise. An Award that is conditioned upon such surrender may or may not be the same type of Award, may cover the same (or a lesser or greater) number of Shares as such surrendered Award, may have
other terms that are determined without regard to the terms or conditions of such surrendered Award, and may contain any other terms that the Committee deems appropriate. In the case of Options, these other terms may not involve an exercise price
that is lower than the exercise price of the surrendered Option (as was determined under Section 6(d)) unless the Company’s shareholders approve the grant itself or the program under which the grant is made pursuant to the Plan.

 6. Option Awards. 
 (a) Types; Documentation. The Committee may in its discretion grant ISOs to any Employee and Non-ISOs to any Eligible Person, and shall evidence any such grants in an Award Agreement that is
delivered to the Participant. Each Option shall be designated in the Award Agreement as an ISO or a Non-ISO, and the same Award Agreement may grant both types of Options. At the sole discretion of the Committee, any Option may be exercisable, in
whole or in part, immediately upon the grant thereof, or only after the occurrence of a specified event, or only in installments, which installments may vary. Options granted under the Plan may contain such terms and provisions not inconsistent with
the Plan that the Committee shall deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion. 
 (b) ISO $100,000
Limitation. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares with respect to which Options designated as ISOs first become

  

 4 








 
exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year (under this Plan and any other plan of the Company or any Affiliate) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options shall be treated as Non-ISOs. For
purposes of determining whether the $100,000 limit is exceeded, the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to an ISO shall be determined as of the Grant Date. In reducing the number of Options treated as ISOs to meet the $100,000 limit, the most
recently granted Options shall be reduced first. In the event that Section 422 of the Code is amended to alter the limitation set forth therein, the limitation of this Section 6(b) shall be automatically adjusted accordingly.

 (c) Term of Options. Each Award Agreement shall specify a term at the end of which the Option
automatically expires, subject to earlier termination provisions contained in Section 6(e)(ii) hereof, provided, that, the term of any Option may not exceed ten years from the Grant Date. In the case of an ISO granted to an Employee who
is a Ten Percent Holder on the Grant Date, the term of the ISO shall not exceed five years from the Grant Date. 
 (d) Exercise of Option. 
 (i) Exercise Price. The exercise price of an Option shall be
determined by the Committee in its discretion and shall be set forth in the Award Agreement, provided that (i) if an ISO is granted to an Employee who on the Grant Date is a Ten Percent Holder, the per Share exercise price shall not be less
than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date, and (ii) for all other Options, such per Share exercise price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date. 
 (ii) Terms and Conditions. The Committee shall in its sole discretion determine the times, circumstances, and
conditions under which an Option shall be exercisable, and shall set them forth in the Award Agreement. The Committee shall have the discretion to determine whether and to what extent the vesting of Options shall be tolled during any unpaid leave of
absence; provided, however, that in the absence of such determination, vesting of Options shall be tolled during any such leave approved by the Company. 
 (iii) Minimum Exercise Requirements. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. The Committee may require in an Award Agreement that an Option be exercised as to a minimum number of
Shares, provided that such requirement shall not prevent a Participant from purchasing the full number of Shares as to which the Option is then exercisable. 
 (iv) Methods of Exercise. Prior to its expiration pursuant to the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, each Option
may be exercised, in whole or in part (provided that the Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares), by delivery of written notice of exercise to the secretary of the Company accompanied by the full exercise price of the Shares being
purchased. In the case of an ISO, the Committee shall determine the acceptable methods of payment on the Grant Date and it shall be included in the applicable Award Agreement. The methods of payment that the Committee may in its discretion accept or
commit to accept in an Award Agreement include: 
 (1) cash or check payable to the Company (in U.S. dollars);

  

 5 








 (2) other Shares that (A) are owned by the Participant who is
purchasing Shares pursuant to an Option, (B) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which the Option is being exercised, (C) are all, at the time of such surrender, free
and clear of any and all claims, pledges, liens and encumbrances, or any restrictions which would in any manner restrict the transfer of such shares to or by the Company (other than such restrictions as may have existed prior to an issuance of such
Shares by the Company to such Participant), and (D) the certificates of which are duly endorsed for transfer to the Company or attestation of ownership and transfer to the Company is effected to the Company’s satisfaction; 
 (3) a cashless exercise program pursuant to which a Participant may concurrently provide irrevocable instructions
(A) to such Participant’s broker to effect the immediate sale of the purchased Shares and remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the exercise price of the Option plus all
applicable taxes required to be withheld by the Company by reason of such exercise, and (B) to the Company to (upon receipt of payment from the broker) deliver the certificates for or electronic evidence of ownership of the purchased Shares
directly to such broker in order to complete the sale; 
 (4) if approved by the Committee, through a net
exercise procedure whereby the Participant surrenders the Option in exchange for that number of Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the difference between the aggregate exercise price of the Option being surrendered and the aggregate
Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option; 
 (5) in such other manner as may be authorized from
time to time by the Committee; or 
 (6) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. 
 (v) Delivery of Shares. The Company shall not be required to deliver Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Option
until payment of the full exercise price therefore is received by the Company. 
 (e) Effect of Termination of
Continuous Service. 
 (i) The Committee may establish and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement the
terms and conditions on which an Option shall remain exercisable, if at all, following termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service.

  

 6 








 
The Committee may waive or modify these provisions at any time. To the extent that a Participant is not entitled to exercise an Option at the date of his or her termination of Continuous Service,
or if the Participant (or other Person entitled to exercise the Option) does not exercise the Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified in the Award Agreement or below (as applicable), the Option shall terminate and the Shares
underlying the unexercised portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan and become available for future Awards. In no event may any Option be exercised after the expiration of the Option term as set forth in the Award Agreement. 
 (ii) The following provisions shall apply to the extent an Award Agreement does not specify the terms and conditions upon
which an Option shall terminate when there is a termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service: 
 (1)
Termination other than Upon Disability or Death or for Cause. In the event of termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service (other than as a result of Participant’s death, Disability, retirement or termination for Cause), the
Participant shall have the right to exercise an Option at any time within 90 days following such termination to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise such Option at the date of such termination. 
 (2) Disability. In the event of termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service as a result of his or her
being Disabled, the Participant shall have the right to exercise an Option at any time within one year following such termination to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise such Option at the date of such termination. 
 (3) Retirement. In the event of termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service as a result of
Participant’s retirement, the Participant shall have the right to exercise the Option at any time within six months following such termination to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise such Option at the date of such termination.

 (4) Death. In the event of the death of a Participant during the period of Continuous Service since
the Grant Date of an Option, or within 30 days following termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service, the Option may be exercised at any time within one year following the date of the Participant’s death by the Participant’s
estate or by a Person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent the right to exercise the Option had vested at the date of death or, if earlier, the date the Participant’s Continuous Service
terminated. 
 (5) Cause. If the Committee determines that a Participant’s Continuous Service
terminated due to Cause, the Participant shall immediately forfeit the right to exercise any Option, and it shall be considered immediately null and void. 
  

 7 








 (f) Reverse Vesting. The Committee in its sole and absolute
discretion may allow a Participant to exercise unvested Options, in which case the Shares then issued shall be Restricted Shares having analogous vesting restrictions to the unvested Options. 
 7. Share Appreciation Rights (SARs). 
 (a) Grants. The Committee may in its discretion grant Share Appreciation Rights (SARs) to any Eligible Person, in any of the following forms: 
 (i) SARs related to Options. The Committee may grant SARs either concurrently with the grant of an Option or with
respect to an outstanding Option, in which case the SAR shall extend to all or a portion of the Shares covered by the related Option. An SAR shall entitle the Optionholder, upon exercise of the SAR and surrender of the related Option, or portion
thereof, to the extent the SAR and related Option each were previously unexercised, to receive payment of an amount determined pursuant to Section 7(e) below. Any SAR granted in connection with an ISO will contain such terms as may be
required to comply with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code. 
 (ii) SARs Independent of
Options. The Committee may grant SARs which are independent of any Option subject to such conditions as the Committee may in its discretion determine, which conditions will be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 
 (iii) Limited SARs. The Committee may grant SARs exercisable only upon or in respect of a Change in Control or any
other specified event, and such limited SARs may relate to or operate in tandem or combination with or substitution for Options or other SARs, or on a stand-alone basis, and may be payable in cash or Shares based on the spread between the exercise
price of the SAR, and (1) a price based upon or equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares during a specified period, at a specified time within a specified period before, after or including the date of such event, or (2) a price related
to consideration payable to the Company’s shareholders generally in connection with the event. 
 (b)
Exercise Price. The per Share exercise price of an SAR shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, and shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of one Share.
The exercise price of an SAR related to an Option shall be the same as the exercise price of the related Option. 
 (c) Exercise of SARs. Unless the Award Agreement otherwise provides, an SAR related to an Option will be exercisable at such time or times, and to the extent, that the related Option will be exercisable. An SAR may not have a term
exceeding ten years from its Grant Date. An SAR granted independently of any other Award will be exercisable pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement. Whether an SAR is related to an Option or is granted independently, the SAR may only be
exercised when the Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying the SAR exceeds the exercise price of the SAR. 
  

 8 








 (d) Effect on Available Shares. All SARs shall be counted in full
against the number of shares available for award under the Plan, regardless of the number of Shares issued upon settlement of the SARs. 
 (e) Payment. 
 (i) Upon exercise of an SAR related to an
Option and the attendant surrender of an exercisable portion of any related Award, the Participant will be entitled to receive payment of an amount determined by multiplying – 
 (1) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise of the SAR over the exercise price per Share of
the SAR, by 
 (2) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR has been exercised. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding Section 7(e)(i), an SAR granted independently of an Option: 
 (1) may limit the amount payable to the Participant to a percentage, specified in the Award Agreement but not exceeding one
hundred percent (100%), of the amount determined pursuant to Section 7(e)(i), and 
 (2) shall be
subject to any payment or other restrictions that the Committee may at any time impose in its discretion, including restrictions intended to conform the SARs with Section 409A of the Code. 
 (f) Form and Terms of Payment. Subject to Applicable Law, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, settle the amount
determined under Section 7(e) above solely in cash, solely in Shares (valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of the SAR), or partly in cash and partly in Shares. In any event, cash shall be paid in lieu of fractional
Shares. Absent a contrary determination by the Committee, all SARs shall be settled in cash as soon as practicable after exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in an Award Agreement, determine the maximum amount of cash or
Shares or combination thereof that may be delivered upon exercise of an SAR. 
 (g) Effect of Termination of
Continuous Service. The Committee shall establish and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement the terms and conditions on which an SAR shall remain exercisable, if at all, following termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service. The
provisions of Section 6(e)(ii) above shall apply to the extent an Award Agreement does not specify the terms and conditions upon which an SAR shall terminate when there is a termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service.

 8. Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units, and Unrestricted Shares. 
 (a) Grants. The Committee has the discretion to grant Awards of Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units, and
Unrestricted Shares under this Section 8. 
  

 9 








 (i) The Committee may in its discretion grant restricted shares
(“Restricted Shares”) to any Eligible Person and shall evidence such grant in an Award Agreement that is delivered to the Participant and that sets forth the number of Restricted Shares, the purchase price for such Restricted Shares
(if any), and the terms upon which the Restricted Shares may become vested. 
 (ii) The Committee may in its
discretion grant the right to receive Shares after certain vesting requirements are met (“Restricted Share Units”) to any Eligible Person and shall evidence such grant in an Award Agreement that is delivered to the Participant which
sets forth the number of Shares (or formula, that may be based on future performance or conditions, for determining the number of Shares) that the Participant shall be entitled to receive upon vesting and the terms upon which the Shares subject to a
Restricted Share Unit may become vested. 
 (iii) The Committee may condition any Award of Restricted Shares or
Restricted Share Units to a Participant on receiving from the Participant such further assurances and documents as the Committee may require to enforce the restrictions. 
 (iv) The Committee may grant Awards hereunder for an aggregate of no more than 30,000 Shares (subject to adjustment under
Section 13) in the form of unrestricted shares (“Unrestricted Shares”), which shall vest in full upon the date of grant or such other date as the Committee may determine or which the Committee may issue pursuant to any
program under which one or more Eligible Persons (selected by the Committee in its discretion) elect to receive Unrestricted Shares in lieu of cash bonuses that would otherwise be paid. 
 (b) Vesting and Forfeiture. 
 (i) Award Agreements for Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units. The Committee shall set forth in an Award
Agreement granting Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units, the terms and conditions under which the Participant’s interest in the Restricted Shares or the Shares subject to Restricted Share Units will become vested and non-forfeitable.

 (ii) Minimum Vesting Requirements. Except for grants to Directors, Restricted Shares and Restricted
Share Units granted under this Section 8 shall be subject to a vesting period of at least three years, with incremental vesting of portions of the Award over the three-year period permitted; provided, however, that if the vesting of the
Award is based upon the attainment of performance goals, a minimum vesting period of one year is allowed, with incremental vesting of portions of the Award over the one-year period permitted. 
 (iii) Effect of Termination of Continuous Service. Except as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement or the
Committee otherwise determines, upon termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service for any other reason, the Participant shall forfeit his or her unvested Restricted Shares and Restricted Share

  

 10 








 
Units; provided that if a Participant purchases the Restricted Shares and forfeits them for any reason, the Company shall return the purchase price to the Participant only if and to the extent
set forth in an Award Agreement. 
 (c) Issuance of Restricted Shares Prior to Vesting. The Company shall
issue stock certificates that evidence Restricted Shares pending the lapse of applicable restrictions, and that bear a legend making appropriate reference to such restrictions. Alternatively, the Company may reflect such ownership and restrictions
in electronic format. Except as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement or the Committee otherwise determines, the Company or a third party that the Company designates shall hold such Restricted Shares and any dividends that accrue with respect
to Restricted Shares pursuant to Section 8(e) below. 
 (d) Issuance of Shares upon Vesting.
As soon as practicable after vesting of a Participant’s Restricted Shares (or Shares underlying Restricted Share Units) and the Participant’s satisfaction of applicable tax withholding requirements, the Company shall release to the
Participant, free from the vesting restrictions, one Share for each vested Restricted Share (or issue one Share free of the vesting restriction for each vested Restricted Share Unit), unless an Award Agreement provides otherwise. No fractional
shares shall be distributed, and cash shall be paid in lieu thereof. 
 (e) Dividends Payable on Vesting.
Whenever Shares are released to a Participant under Section 8(d) above pursuant to the vesting of Restricted Shares or the Shares underlying Restricted Share Units are issued to a Participant pursuant to Section 8(d) above,
such Participant shall receive (unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement), with respect to each Share released or issued, an amount equal to any cash dividends (plus, in the discretion of the Committee, simple interest at a rate as the
Committee may determine) and a number of Shares equal to any stock dividends, which were declared and paid to the holders of Shares between the Grant Date and the date such Share is released or issued. 
 (f) Section 83(b) Elections. A Participant may make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code (the
“Section 83(b) Election”) with respect to Restricted Shares. If a Participant who has received Restricted Share Units provides the Committee with written notice of his or her intention to make Section 83(b) Election with
respect to the Shares subject to such Restricted Share Units, the Committee may in its discretion, if permitted by Section 409A of the Code, convert the Participant’s Restricted Share Units into Restricted Shares, on a one-for-one basis,
in full satisfaction of the Participant’s Restricted Share Unit Award. The Participant may then make a Section 83(b) Election with respect to those Restricted Shares. 
 9. Performance Units. 
 Subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 10(b), the Committee has discretion to grant Performance Units 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. Performance Units must vest based upon the attainment of performance goals with a minimum vesting period of one year, with incremental vesting of portions of the Performance Units over the one-year period permitted. 
  

 11 








 10. Performance Compensation Awards. 
 (a) Qualified Performance-Based Compensation. 
 (i) Subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph (b) hereof, the Committee may, at the time of grant of Restricted
Shares, Restricted Share Units, or Performance Units, designate such Award as a “Performance Compensation Award” in order that such Award constitutes “qualified performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of
the Code, 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 Section 162(m) of
the Code. 
 (ii) With respect to each such Performance Compensation Award, the Committee shall establish, in
writing within the time required under Section 162(m) of the Code, a “Performance Period,” “Performance Measure(s)”, and “Performance Formula(e)” (as each such term is defined in
Section 10(c)). 
 (iii) 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. 
 (iv) 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. 
 (b) Limitations on Awards. The maximum Performance Compensation Award that any one Participant may receive for any one
Performance Period shall not together exceed 250,000 Shares, subject to adjustment under Section 13, and $4 million in cash, per calendar year. 
 (c) 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. 
  

 12 








 (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; credit quality measurements (such as net charge-offs, the ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets, and loan loss allowances as a percentage of nonperforming assets); 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 Section 162(m) of the Code, 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. 
 (iii) “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. 
 11. Taxes. 
 (a) General. As a condition to the issuance or distribution of Shares pursuant to the Plan, the Participant (or in the case of the Participant’s death, the person who succeeds to the Participant’s rights) shall make such
arrangements as the Company may require for the satisfaction of any applicable federal, state, local, or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the Award and the issuance of Shares. The Company shall not be required to
issue any Shares until such obligations are satisfied. If the Committee allows the withholding or surrender of Shares to satisfy a Participant’s tax withholding obligations, the Committee shall not allow Shares to be withheld in an amount that
exceeds the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes. 
 (b) Surrender of Shares. If permitted by the Committee, in its discretion, a Participant may satisfy the minimum applicable tax withholding and employment tax obligations associated with an Award by surrendering Shares to the Company
(including Shares that would otherwise be issued pursuant to the Award) that have a Fair Market Value determined as of the applicable Tax Date equal to the amount required to be withheld. 
  

 13 








 (c) Default Rule for Employees. In the absence of any other
arrangement, an Employee shall be deemed to have directed the Company to withhold or collect from his or her cash compensation an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations from the next payroll payment otherwise payable after the date of the
exercise of an Award. 
 (d) Special Rules. In the case of (i) a Participant other than an Employee,
(ii) an Employee where the next payroll payment is not sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations, with respect to any remaining tax obligations, (iii) a Participant who is an Executive Officer of the Company or a member of the Board, in
the absence of any other arrangement and to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, the Participant shall be deemed to have elected to have the Company withhold from the Shares or cash to be issued pursuant to an Award that number of Shares
having a Fair Market Value determined as of the applicable Tax Date (as defined below) or cash equal to the amount required to be withheld. For purposes of this Section 11, the Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be
determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined under the Applicable Law (the “Tax Date”). 
 (e) Income Taxes. 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. 
 12. Non-Transferability of Awards. 
 (a) General.
Except as set forth in this Section 12, 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 12. 
 (b) Limited Transferability
Rights. Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 12, the Committee may in its discretion provide in an Award Agreement that an Award other than an ISO 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. 
  

 14 








 13. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Merger, or Certain Other Transactions. 
 (a) Changes in Capitalization. The Committee shall equitably adjust the number of Shares covered by each outstanding
Award, all Share limitations contained herein and the number of Shares that have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or that have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation, forfeiture, or
expiration of an Award, as well as the price per Share covered by each such outstanding Award, to reflect any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock-split, reverse stock-split, stock dividend, combination,
recapitalization or reclassification of the Shares, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company. In the event of any such transaction or event, the Committee may provide
in substitution for any or all outstanding Awards under the Plan such alternative consideration (including securities of any surviving entity) as it may in good faith determine to be equitable under the circumstances and may require in connection
therewith the surrender of all Awards so replaced. In any case, such substitution of securities shall not require the consent of any person who is granted Awards pursuant to the Plan. Except as expressly provided herein, or in an Award Agreement, if
the Company issues for consideration shares of stock of any class or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, the issuance shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be required to be made with respect to the number
or price of Shares subject to any award. 
 (b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the
dissolution or liquidation of the Company other than as part of a Change in Control, each Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such action, subject to the ability of the Committee to exercise any discretion authorized in the
case of a Change in Control. 
 (c) Change in Control. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement,
Awards will automatically vest in full (and to the extent applicable, become exercisable) and any repurchase rights of the Company will automatically lapse upon a Change in Control of the Company. In addition, in the event of a Change in Control,
the Committee may in its sole and absolute discretion and authority, without obtaining the approval or consent of the Company’s shareholders or any Participant with respect to his or her outstanding Awards, take one or more of the following
actions: 
 (i) arrange for or otherwise provide that each outstanding Award shall be assumed or a substantially
similar award shall be substituted by a successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation (the “Successor Corporation”); 
 (ii) require that all outstanding Options and Share Appreciation Rights be exercised on or before a specified date (before or
after such Change in Control) fixed by the Committee, after which specified date all unexercised Options and Share Appreciation Rights shall terminate; 
  

 15 








 (iii) arrange or otherwise provide for the payment of cash or other
consideration to Participants in exchange for the satisfaction and cancellation of outstanding Awards; or 
 (iv)
make such other modifications, adjustments or amendments to outstanding Awards or this Plan as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate, subject however to the terms of Section 15(a) below. 
 (d) Certain Distributions. In the event of any distribution to the Company’s shareholders of securities of any
other entity or other assets (other than dividends payable in cash or stock of the Company) without receipt of consideration by the Company, the Committee may, in its discretion, appropriately adjust the price per Share covered by each outstanding
Award to reflect the effect of such distribution. 
 14. Time of Granting Awards. 
 The date of grant (“Grant Date”) of an Award shall be the date on which the Committee makes the determination granting such
Award or such other later date as is determined by the Committee, provided that in the case of an ISO, the Grant Date shall be the later of the date on which the Committee makes the determination granting such ISO or the date of commencement of the
Participant’s employment relationship with the Company. 
 15. Modification of Awards and Substitution of Options. 
 (a) Modification, Extension, and Renewal of Awards. Within the limitations of the Plan, the Committee may modify an
Award to accelerate the rate at which an Option or SAR may be exercised (including without limitation permitting an Option or SAR to be exercised in full without regard to the installment or vesting provisions of the applicable Award Agreement or
whether the Option or SAR is at the time exercisable, to the extent it has not previously been exercised), to accelerate the vesting of any Award, to extend or renew outstanding Awards in compliance with Section 409A, to the extent applicable,
or to accept the cancellation of outstanding Awards to the extent not previously exercised. However, the Committee may not cancel an outstanding option that is underwater for the purpose of reissuing the option to the Participant at a lower exercise
price or granting a replacement award of a different type. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, no modification of an outstanding Award shall materially and adversely affect such Participant’s rights thereunder, unless either the
Participant provides written consent or there is an express Plan provision permitting the Committee to act unilaterally to make the modification. 
 (b) Substitution of Options. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provisions or limits under the Plan, in the event the Company or an Affiliate acquires (whether by purchase, merger, or otherwise) all
or substantially all of outstanding capital stock or assets of another corporation or in the event of any reorganization or other transaction qualifying under Section 424 of the Code, the Committee may, in accordance with the provisions of that
Section, substitute Options for options under the plan of the acquired company provided (i) the excess of the aggregate fair market value of the shares subject to an option immediately after the substitution over the aggregate option price of
such

  

 16 








 
shares is not more than the similar excess immediately before such substitution and (ii) the new option does not give Persons additional benefits, including any extension of the exercise
period. 
 16. Term of Plan. 
 The Plan shall continue in effect for a term of ten years from its effective date as determined under Section 20 below, unless the Plan is sooner terminated under Section 17 below.

 17. Amendment and Termination of the Plan. 
 (a) Authority to Amend or Terminate. Subject to Applicable Laws, the Board may from time to time amend, alter,
suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan. Shareholder approval is required for any Plan amendment that would permit repricing without shareholder approval. 
 (b) Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall materially and
adversely affect Awards already granted unless either it relates to an adjustment pursuant to Section 13 above, or it is otherwise mutually agreed between the Participant and the Committee, which agreement must be in writing and signed
by the Participant and the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may amend the Plan to eliminate provisions which are no longer necessary as a result of changes in tax or securities laws or regulations, or in the interpretation
thereof. 
 18. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or any agreement entered into by the Company pursuant to the Plan, the Company shall not be obligated, and shall have no liability for failure, to issue or
deliver any Shares under the Plan unless such issuance or delivery would comply with Applicable Law, with such compliance determined by the Company in consultation with its legal counsel. 
 19. Reservation of Shares. 
 The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. Neither the Company nor the Committee shall, without shareholder
approval, allow for a repricing within the meaning of the federal securities laws applicable to proxy statement disclosures. 
 20. Effective
Date. 
 This Plan shall become effective on the date of its approval by the Board; provided that this Plan shall be
submitted to the Company’s shareholders for approval, and if not approved by the shareholders in accordance with Applicable Laws (as determined by the Committee in its discretion) within one year from the date of approval by the Board, this
Plan and any Awards shall be null, void, and of no force and effect. Awards granted under this Plan before approval of this Plan by the shareholders shall be granted subject to such approval, and no Shares shall be distributed before such approval.

  

 17 








 21. Controlling Law. 
 All disputes relating to or arising from the Plan shall be governed by the internal substantive laws (and not the laws of conflicts of laws) of the State of Louisiana, to the extent not preempted by
United States federal law. If any provision of this Plan is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid and unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue to be fully effective. 
 22. Laws and Regulations. 
 (a) U.S. Securities Laws. This Plan, the grant of Awards, the exercise of Options and SARs under this Plan, and the obligation of the Company to sell or deliver any of its securities (including,
without limitation, Options, Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units, and Shares) under this Plan shall be subject to all Applicable Laws. In the event that the Shares are not registered under the Securities Act, or any applicable state securities
laws prior to the delivery of such Shares, the Company may require, as a condition to the issuance thereof, that the persons to whom Shares are to be issued represent and warrant in writing to the Company that such Shares are being acquired by him
or her for investment for his or her own account and not with a view to, for resale in connection with, or with an intent of participating directly or indirectly in, any distribution of such Shares within the meaning of the Securities Act, and a
legend to that effect may be placed on the certificates representing the Shares. 
 (b) Other
Jurisdictions. To facilitate the making of any grant of an Award under this Plan, the Committee may provide for such special terms for Awards to Participants who are foreign nationals or who are employed by the Company or any Affiliate outside
of the United States of America as the Committee may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom. The Company may adopt rules and procedures relating to the operation and administration of this
Plan to accommodate the specific requirements of local laws and procedures of particular countries. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company is specifically authorized to adopt rules and procedures regarding the conversion of local currency,
taxes, withholding procedures and handling of stock certificates which vary with the customs and requirements of particular countries. The Company may adopt sub-plans and establish escrow accounts and trusts as may be appropriate or applicable to
particular locations and countries. 
 23. No Shareholder Rights. 
 Neither a Participant nor any transferee of a Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to any Shares
underlying any Award until the date of issuance of a Share certificate or other evidence of Share ownership to a Participant or a transferee of a Participant for such Shares in accordance with the Company’s governing instruments and Applicable
Law. Prior to the issuance of Shares pursuant to an Award, a Participant shall not have the right to vote or to receive dividends or any other rights as a

  

 18 








 
shareholder with respect to the Shares underlying the Award, notwithstanding its exercise in the case of Options and SARs. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right that is
determined based on a record date prior to the date the stock certificate or other evidence of ownership is issued, except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Plan. 
 24. No Employment Rights. 
 The Plan shall not confer upon any Participant
any right to continue an employment, service or consulting relationship with the Company, nor shall it affect in any way a Participant’s right or the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment, service, or consulting
relationship at any time, with or without Cause. 
 25. Deferral. 
 Payment of an Award may be deferred only if permitted in the Award Agreement. Any deferral arrangement shall comply with Section 409A of
the Code.
